Chapter 157 Fight Back
Xu Shiqiu was not surprised to see Xu Yanhao who came to look for him. Mother told her about it yesterday, and thinking of her sister-in-law's thoughts, Xu Shiqiu nodded to Xu Yanhao and said, "Since you're here, go train with the recruits first. After you finish the training and the results of the assessment come out, I will arrange for you a position and things that suit you."

Xu Shiqiu didn't give Xu Yanhao any special treatment, even Ye Shuo, a royal blood, had to train with recruits when he first came.

It's just that when he was young, he worried that too much training would ruin his body, so he cut his training in half.

But Ye Shuo is a proud one. Although his training was halved at the beginning, he gradually added it later.

Not only that, because Ye Shuo worked hard, and he often eats some flesh in private to grow strong, so he was selected as a soldier of the Iron Eagle Brigade until the final assessment, and had the opportunity to show his face in front of Emperor Ruikang.

Xu Yanhao had already inquired about the rules of Third Uncle's place before coming here, so it was not surprising to hear him say that, and replied directly: "No."

Seeing that Xu Yanhao didn't talk nonsense and left obediently, Xu Shiqiu was somewhat satisfied with him.

As long as he is not arrogant and arrogant, if he comes to him, he can always beat him out.

The son of their Xu family will not shrink back because of hard training.

After arranging Xu Yanhao's affairs, Xu Shiqiu went to see the training situation of the recruits according to his previous plan.

The recruits this time were different from the previous ones. Most of the recruits this time were dug from other generals in the suburbs of Beijing. Emperor Ruikang meant to strengthen the Iron Eagle Brigade.

Emperor Ruikang was worried about handing over the military camp on the outskirts of Beijing to others. After all, Xu Shiqiu was Xu Zhenbei's son, and with King Duan speaking beside him, plus Dong Shu's blessing, Emperor Ruikang naturally wanted to use Xu Shiqiu again.

But Xu Shiqiu understood that the Iron Eagle Brigade is not so easy to grow, it is just training now, and the final framework of the Iron Eagle Brigade can only be determined after it has experienced actual combat.

After patrolling around, he made sure that the recruits were well trained. Xu Shiqiu was just about to go back to the camp to deal with some things, but he saw that Xu Yanhao had already changed the clothes of the soldiers and came to the school field alone.

From a distance, Xu Shiqiu could only see that he had found someone he should be familiar with, and soon started training with the recruits.

Seeing such a scene, Xu Shiqiu was somewhat satisfied with Xu Yanhao, his nephew.

While Xu Shiqiu was busy in the barracks, the old lady of the Xu family in the capital also brought Dong Shu and Xu Yanzhu to the mansion of the Xu family.

The old lady of the Xu family came in person. Except for Mrs. Hu who was still sleeping after giving birth, everyone at home waited outside the gate to welcome her.

After Mrs. Xu entered the courtyard of the Xu family's big house, she didn't talk nonsense, and directly ordered the maid to take out a jade lock and the land deed of a small village that she had prepared a long time ago.

"These are all for the eldest grandson of our Xu family. Mrs. Hu has worked so hard. I also have two good horses here, which are for her."

Naturally, what was given to Mrs. Hu was not as valuable as what was given to Mrs. Zhong, but Mrs. Ye did not find it strange.

She knew that her mother-in-law was an elder who loved the younger generation, but the Hu family was only a grandson's wife after all, and had nothing to do with her.

"Since mother is here, why don't you choose a name for the boy?" Ye asked tentatively. In fact, for the name of the eldest grandson, both Xianggong and the eldest son and father and son had thought about it a lot, but they disagreed, and they haven't decided yet.

It's just that the mother-in-law is an elder after all, so I still have to ask about this matter.

Mrs. Xu couldn't see Ye's temptation, but she was the first boy of the fourth generation of the Xu family after all, and Mrs. Xu was also happy in her heart. After a moment's pause, she said, "I will give the child a baby today." As for the name to be recorded in the family tree in the future, it is better for Ming Yuan or Yan Qing to choose." After saying this, Mrs. Xu opened her mouth and said under Ye Shi's gaze: "An Ning, this child From now on, my baby name will be An Ning."

Ye Shi also heaved a sigh of relief when she heard Mrs. Xu mention her eldest grandson's baby name.

The mother-in-law still has their eldest house in her heart, and the baby name she gave her grandson, although it doesn't sound like a rich and powerful name, but these two words are very good.

"Mother, sit down, I'll go and see An Ning right now, and bring him here for you to see."

Mrs. Xu did not refuse Mrs. Ye's proposal. She will sit outside now, and the child is inside. It is not easy for her to go in, but it is okay to come out with the child for her to have a look.

After Mrs. Xu finished watching the child, Dong Shu and Xu Yanzhu also gave their gifts.

After all, Dong Shu is an elder, and this child is the No.1 of the fourth generation of the Xu family, so she is extraordinarily generous in her actions.

The main reason is that Dong Shu has a lot of good things in her hands now.

Apart from two sets of clothes sewn by herself and an expensive gift, what Xu Yanzhu sent was a set of silver and thin collars and other things.

"My aunt doesn't have many good things. After two days, I will go back to Jiang's house and bring some good things to my eldest nephew." Xu Yanzhu said so, but the things she prepared were An Ning's best things. Applicable.

Especially the silver collar, although it is light and thin, it is suitable for children to wear.

Xu Yanzhu is in a good mood these past few days, and her makeup is not as frivolous as in the past, but it makes her look even better.

It's just that the whole family didn't pay much attention to Xu Yanzhu's changes, they only thought that she was in a good mood after living in her natal family for a while.

How could Mrs. Ye have raised several children and didn't understand that the things that Xu Yanzhu brought up were all applicable now, so she naturally accepted these things with a smile, and then ordered someone to arrange meals.

Now that she came to the big room, Mrs. Xu naturally wouldn't leave without eating a meal, otherwise she would let outsiders know that she didn't know how to arrange the big room.

But after dinner, Mrs. Xu took Dong Shu and Xu Yanzhu back, and they would come again when it was time for the third bath.

Just when Mrs. Xu took Dong Shu and Xu Yanzhu away from the big house of the Xu family, a flower house in the alley with the most flower houses in the capital suddenly announced a news to the outside world. ** in the future.

As soon as the news came out, the dandies in the capital who were interested in this matter and some officials who often lingered in Hualou learned the news one after another.

In the military camp on the outskirts of Beijing, the bearded and long-faced generals who wanted to embarrass Xu Shiqiu before all heard the news.

Both of them are people who like to go to Hualou, and because they often go to Hualou to find girls together, their relationship is better than others.

After hearing the news and hearing that the girls were all stunning, they couldn't bear to wait, so they immediately discussed it and waited until the day to see it together.

And just after they discussed paying back the matter, Xu Shiqiu's memorial to Emperor Ruikang yesterday was also approved.

After receiving the approved memorial, Xu Shiqiu directly summoned all the generals in the general camp.

"What? Will there be a joint drill tomorrow?" The bearded man looked at Xu Shiqiu in disbelief. He felt that this time Xu Shiqiu wanted to take this opportunity to teach his soldiers a lesson so that they would lose face. .

After the long-faced general heard the bearded general speak, he also followed suit and said: "General Xu, we are wise and don't speak dark words. The soldiers in our hands are not as good as yours. What's more, some time ago, you sent us Some of the soldiers under our hands have chosen to leave, and now we don't have many people under our hands."

He said so, but the long-faced general was unwilling to participate in this kind of joint exercise. You must know that this exercise lasted for three days, and he was not allowed to leave the barracks during these three days.

If they couldn't leave the barracks, how could they go to the capital to see those little beauties.

They have heard that the little beauty will be looking for a predestined person to marry her, and they feel that they still have a glimmer of hope to become that predestined person.

Xu Shiqiu knew in his heart why the two of them were unwilling, but when he started planning yesterday, he had already figured out how to deal with it.

"This is His Majesty's intention. Prince Duan will come in person at that time." After saying this, Xu Shiqiu paused and continued: "What's more, according to His Majesty's intention, my soldiers will attack alone. All of you Defense. Could it be that, with so many of you, are you still afraid of us?"

As Xu Shiqiu spoke, there was a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

You know, with the rest of them together, there are nearly [-] people under their command.

As for his subordinates, there were no more than 500 people in the Iron Eagle Brigade trained before. As for the recruits today, they are definitely not as good as the Iron Eagle Brigade.

What's more, the people under him, combined, are not yet 3000.

Three times the number of people, this is what he has long thought, and he will never allow them to refuse.

After hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, the bearded and long-faced generals couldn't find any reason anymore. After all, Xu Shiqiu made it clear that it was Emperor Ruikang's will. King Duan would also come at that time, and they dared not not participate.

The most important thing is that the gap in the number of people is indeed large, which makes them have to make bold guesses, maybe they can still win Xu Shiqiu.

Seeing that the two of them didn't speak, the other generals who were unhappy with Xu Shiqiu only wanted to teach Xu Shiqiu a lesson. As for the other generals who were neutral or had fallen to Xu Shiqiu, they naturally had their own thoughts.

Xu Shiqiu didn't care about their thoughts, this shot, he was going to get rid of the bearded and long-faced generals. As for the other people who followed them before, Xu Shiqiu believed that as long as other than these two people, no one else would dare What happened.

Because of the joint drill in two days, Xu Shiqiu went home tonight.

Xu Shiqiu was busy with this matter for the past two days, and he didn't even have time to congratulate his eldest brother on the birth of a grandson.

"Yan Zhu went back?"

In the evening, after the couple had made out, Xu Shiqiu hugged Dong Shu and talked while lying on the bed.

Hearing Xu Shiqiu's inquiry, Dong Shu yawned lazily, and then said: "I'm going back, after all, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and her mother-in-law is ill, so she can't stay with us forever." Said After saying this, Dong Shu moved her body and said suddenly: "Master, An Ning of the elder brother's family is born, and our family Yuan Xi still only has a baby name."

When talking about this, Dong Shu felt uncomfortable.

Although Yuan Xi was only a girl, it was her and her husband's first child after all, and it was born in anticipation.

But so far, she seems to be learning to speak, and she only has a baby name.

As soon as the little lady mentioned this, Xu Shiqiu laughed and said: "My husband has actually thought about it a long time ago. Our generation follows the day, and the generation of Yuanxi and others follow the words. The children of the eldest brother's family fetch water, and the children of the second brother's family take water. The children will take the king, and our Yuanxi will take the gold." While speaking, Xu Shiqiu raised Dong Shu's hand and wrote a word on her palm.

bell

"From now on, our Yuanxi family will be called Xu Yanling, and when we have children in the future, we will follow their older sister's name."

After Dong Shu heard that Xu Shiqiu had already thought of Yuan Xi's name, she was no longer angry.

She didn't know that much, but she only asked Xu Shiqiu about it when she heard that An Ning was going to be included in the family tree, and that girls from the Xu family were also going to be included in the family tree.

Xu Shiqiu didn't think much about it. Seeing that Dong Shu was no longer angry, he continued: "Originally, I planned to wait for Yuan Xi to be one year old, and then tell you the name I chose for Yuan Xi when she catches Zhou. It's just a lady. Since I am in a hurry, my husband can only tell you this word earlier."

Dong Shu didn't expect Xianggong to have such a plan, and when she heard this, Dong Shu felt a little hot in the face.

She really misunderstood Xianggong.

It's rare for Xu Shiqiu to see such a delicate side of the little lady now, and thinking that he will be busy for a few days, turning around and going up immediately is another moment of love.

In the Jiang family, Xu Yanzhu looked at the two young women kneeling in front of her, holding a letter in her hand, her eyes were red.

A few days ago, he said that he would not leave him for too long in the future, but today he left a letter and left quietly.

But Xu Yanzhu also understands that Brother Yan can't let people know that he is still alive, let alone that he still has power behind the scenes.

Thinking of this, Xu Yanzhu put away the letter in his hand, looked at the two ordinary-faced women in front of him and said, "Are you sent by Brother Yan to protect me?"

When the two women heard Xu Yanzhu's question, they responded respectfully, "Yes."

"Are you ordinary maids or are you?"

It's no wonder Xu Yanzhu thought too much, these two women had ordinary faces, but they were able to quietly appear in his room just now.

If she hadn't practiced martial arts since she was a child, and she was so courageous, she might have been frightened.

Neither of the two women thought that Xu Yanzhu was so smart. Thinking of her identity and her master's confession, the woman on the left immediately replied: "The two subordinates are the secret guards sent by the master to protect the wife, but the master's intention is to let Subordinates turn darkness into light."

Hearing the woman's words, Xu Yanzhu nodded, and then said: "In that case, from now on, you will follow Cuihua's side and learn how to be maids first. After two days, I will bring you to my side for personal protection."

Xu Yanzhu had already thought that for these two people, she would use the maidservant that her third uncle had found for her as an excuse. Anyway, now that the Jiang family is in chaos because of her mother-in-law, no one would think of it.

After a while, when they both became familiar, even if someone asked again, they couldn't ask anything.

When the two women heard Xu Yanzhu's words, they immediately responded. From then on, they left that shady place and became honorable maidservants beside the madam.
