Chapter 221: Meeting Fatty in front of Feibao Camp
At nightfall, at the fourth watch, Liu Yu quietly left the blacksmith camp, carrying his luggage and the thick-backed machete wrapped in black cloth. He walked quietly, in this place where military discipline was lifted due to a night of carnival.
There were drunken men lying everywhere in the place. Except for the two sentries at the door, even Feng Qian was drunk.
An hour ago, Mao Qiu rushed to contact his brothers, and Liu Yu packed everything during this time. He didn't want to leave tomorrow morning. Liu Muzhi was right last time, life is the most painful.
The most important thing is separation, even if it is separation for life.
When the tokens were checked at the door, the two soldiers on guard kept saying thanks, saying that it was all thanks to Liu Yu that they had a good meal today, but Liu Yu could see the envy in their eyes. After all,
They have gone out, but they don't know how long they will stay here. Maybe after two years, when the three-year service period is over, most people here can only return to their hometowns to continue farming, or even buy ten acres of thin farmland.
Even though I couldn't save any money, I came to join the army with great wishes. This result is undoubtedly disappointing.
Liu Yu thought about these things all the way, thinking about how he could help other ordinary servants like Feng Qian, but after thinking about it, he had no clue. As he walked, he came to Feibao Camp.
At the door, a familiar voice sounded behind him: "Ji Nu, why are you here now?"
Liu Yu's expression changed and he turned around to look. He was not angry anymore. Liu Muzhi was looking at him with a smile. He went up and punched the fat man's stomach lightly: "You damn fat man,
I screwed you up last time!"
Liu Muzhi laughed: "Damn it? You should thank me. As the saying goes, this ugly daughter-in-law always has to meet her parents-in-law, and you, this ugly son-in-law, shouldn't you also meet your future mother-in-law? This time
Sooner or later, you will have to pass the test."
Liu Yu sighed: "At least you should tell me in advance and let me make some preparations."
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "Are you, Liu Jinu, someone who deliberately prepares for something? Do it spontaneously and show your truest side. If you do this, you will naturally pass the test. I am very happy.
Sure!"
Liu Yu frowned: "Are you so sure that I can pass the test? After all, it is a high-ranking family, the Xie family and the Wang family. If I say something inappropriate, I might just drive them away.
.”
Liu Muzhi said with a smile: "Whether it's Marshal Xuan or Mrs. Wang, what they see is that you are different from those children of aristocratic families who follow the rules, and they see your bold and uninhibited personality. You will not be fooled."
You are seduced by money and power, and you will not regard your love with Miss Wang as a weight in the transaction, so I am not worried at all that you will fail this test."
When he said this, he paused: "Actually, Marshal Xuan also liked this about you, so he paid such a high price to let you join the army. I told you about this last time. The Xie family intends to win you over.
That's why I specially arranged for you to get close to Miss Wang. Otherwise, even if you two are in love and have no experience together, it is impossible for you to get together. As for Mrs. Wang, her knowledge and open-mindedness can be praised as one of the best in the family, let alone
Like ordinary women, you only care about family background. Otherwise, she will just like her husband and stop seeing you."
Liu Yuqi said: "If that's the case, then why do they still set up this trap?"
Liu Muzhi smiled and said: "Everything in the world can only be cherished after going through a lot of hardships and is not easy to obtain. Just like you joined the army this time, experienced so many things, and finally returned to Feibao Camp.
When you come back this time, will the feeling be the same as when you first entered the military camp?"
Liu Yu looked back at the pitch-black camp, with several camp flags still fluttering on the camp gate. He sighed softly: "The scenery remains the same, but the personnel have changed. These six months in this army feel like they have passed by."
It has been the same for ten years. The Jingkou Liu Da of that day no longer exists. Now there is only Liu Yu, a soldier of the Beifu Army."
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Yes, the same goes for you and Miss Wang. If the Xie family gave her to you so easily, then after you have had a taste of it, your passion may subside. After all, after getting a woman,
It becomes less and less valuable, but for men, their careers will develop throughout their lives."
Liu Yu's expression changed: "I am not a person who likes the new and hates the old, and I will never lose my voice in this life."
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "But the Xie family doesn't think so. You have to know that marriage has always been a political means and feelings have always been a tool in these powerful families. They are not affectionate people like you, so treat them
It is the most normal thing for a person like Huan Wen to find a new love after he has become so prosperous, or even marry other aristocratic families, and then kick them away."
Speaking of this, Liu Muzhi sighed: "The Xie family also forced their daughters to divorce the Wang Xun branch of the Taiyuan Wang family and marry them instead to the Langya Wang family. They
If you do this yourself, of course you worry that others will do the same, so before you marry Miss Wang, you need to add a lot of variables and difficulties."
Liu Yu sighed: "It's too tiring to live like this. I have no desire for fame or fortune. I just want to serve the country by joining the army. If I can regain my lost land one day, I don't want to be an official. I just hope to retire to Linquan with my wife and children and return to my hometown."
Between mountains and rivers.”
Liu Muzhi nodded: "That's something for later. Let's not talk about it. By the way, during the day today, Marshal Xuan allowed you to return to Feibao Camp. He even held a banquet at the Commander-in-Chief's Mansion to celebrate your return.
Why didn't you go there?"
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "It's very awkward to drink and chat with the generals. Besides, the competition is about to begin, and I don't want to leave any excuses to make friends with General Liu and build relationships through the back door. Finally, after all, I am with the brothers from the Blacksmith Camp.
After being together for so many days, I feel a little reluctant to leave. Before I leave, I want to have one last drink with them."
Liu Muzhi curled up his lips: "When I came here, I saw that furry ball looking for his brothers everywhere. He said that you promised to help them win the qualifications to participate in the competition. Is that so?"
Liu Yu nodded: "The Mao family is a general. I know Mao Qiu's ability. He shouldn't stay in the blacksmith shop."
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "This unintentional act of yours may have a significant impact on your future life."
Liu Yu's expression changed: "What do you mean by this?"
Liu Muzhi put away his smile: "Maybe you have been with Mao Qiu for a long time and feel that he is very ordinary. You think that he is just a figure like Liu Jingxuan at most. But Ji Nu, I must tell you, the Mao family is not Liu Laozhi
Such refugee commanders, whose fathers and uncles are both generals of the country, do you think that with the status of General Mao Muzhi and General Mao Anzhi, what kind of exams are needed for them to enter the Tiger Army? Do you still need to beg for mercy?" 8)
