Chapter 22 Mother

Early the next morning, Xin came to the yard behind.

He bowed to his mother, Xin Wubing's widow, Mrs. Gan.

"My son, I have heard about what happened yesterday."

Before Xin could speak again, Gan said.

"I never reported it to my mother." Xin said again.

"I originally thought it was impossible for you to survive the sword of the soldiers. I didn't expect you to call for reinforcements. It was really beyond my expectation."

"Xinyi is in danger, so we have to think of some solutions."

Xin You was respectful and respectful, he did not dare to be disrespectful in the slightest in front of this old woman.

"Son, come here and see grandma."

Gan said suddenly.

Xin was stunned for a moment, and then walked up to Gan.

The room was dark, and when Xin came closer, he realized that Gan looked very old.

She was originally only in her early forties, with gray hair and spots around her eyes.

She stretched out her hand as sweet as bone, held Xin You's wrist, and gently pulled it up.

"My son...does it still hurt?"

Gan touched a wound on Xin You's arm.

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

Xin You felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart.

No matter how harsh this old woman is to her son, she is still Xin You's mother.

Her deep love and care for Xin You could not be hidden.

It's just that Mrs. Gan had too high expectations for Xin You, which actually made Xin You become timid and afraid to do anything.

"Sit down and let me touch your head."

Xin You was obedient and sat cross-legged in front of his mother's knees, letting the old woman touch his hair.

In my previous life, I lost my mother long ago.

In front of Gan, Xin felt the emotion that had been missing for a long time...

"My child, were you afraid when you faced the soldiers yesterday?"

Hearing that his son had organized a battle against the Rong people, Gan was extremely happy.

"Don't be afraid. If I am afraid, the Chinese people will definitely be afraid, and then everything I have done before will be in vain."

"Are you doing this for Wei?"

Gan finally spoke.

Xin You shook his head: "No, I just don't want Xin Yi to be bullied."

"My son...has finally grown up."

Mrs. Gan was very pleased and gently stroked Xin You's head.

"The future of Xinyi will depend on you."

"I know, mother."

Xin gently held her mother's hand, which was very cold.

"Then are you afraid of Fan and Xin Jin?" Gan continued to ask.

This time, Xin hesitated for a long time before saying, "If it's just the two of them, I have nothing to be afraid of, but they represent the small sects of the Fan family and the Xin family. I really don't know what to do."

"I understand." Mrs. Gan said, "Just go ahead and do it. I won't care about you anymore from now on."

She patted Xin You's shoulder and signaled Xin You to stand up again.

Xin didn't expect that this extremely old-fashioned old lady would just let go of him?

Shouldn't she be enacting a drama of old ideas versus new ones?

"In the past, I hoped that you could be on your own as soon as possible, but you were always timid and hesitant in doing things, so I had to teach you. But judging from what you did yesterday, it seems that you don't need me to guide you anymore.

"

Gan said the reason.

In fact, she didn't know that it was precisely because she took too much care that Xin lost his ability to do things.

"Mom, I will send you to Doctor Puyi later."

"Go ahead." Mr. Gan smiled.

Xin You's heart moved. From his memory, since Xin Wubing's death, Gan rarely smiled.

It seems that this old mother is really happy for herself.

After leaving the Gan family, Xin felt relieved again.

Judging from Gan's words, he has at least become the master of this "little family".

When the problem of the three elders is solved, he will become the real master of Xinyi.

The troops composed of the people from Puyi have already lined up outside Xinyi.

This time in the battle, the soldiers were frightened away without using any weapons, and they were very happy.

Fan Ni has woken up and seems to be in good spirits.

"Ren Xin, we have to go back quickly." Fan Ni said: "The Yiluozhi Rong didn't take advantage of you, and they might make plans to go elsewhere. We have to be careful against these guys recently."

"Okay, hurry up and let me tell you how to do it." Xin said again: "I have prepared the pigeons."

Xin also had someone take out a pigeon, tie his legs, and give it to Fan Ni.

Fan Ni looked at the plump pigeon and swallowed.

"Don't eat it!"

Xin gave Fan Ni another vaccination.

"Uh... ok, ok."

Fanni nodded.

Puyi's troops left quickly.

Xin You and the village elders also returned to the city.

The soldiers are gone, but there is still much to do.

The first thing is to repair the road that was damaged during the battle. This is the only way out of Xinyi, so it is very important.

While he was instructing everyone to build the road, Fan Mu, a bull man, pulled a few old cows and walked back dejectedly.

Fan Mu spent a lot of effort and finally brought back four live cows.

Four of them were killed by the soldiers.

The other side took this opportunity and left for another country.

There was also one that somehow caught fire and turned into a barbecue.

Seeing Xin You, Fan Mu's full of grievance finally burst out.

"Doctor Yi! The cow is lost!!!"

The cow is lost, this is a big deal!

As an important production tool, cattle are of extremely high value.

A cattle man raises cattle specifically for the public family, and the cattle he raises are the public property of the Xinyi public family.

Now that you have lost a few heads, you will naturally be punished.

So Fan Mu looked at Xin You with resentment in his eyes. After all, this "fire ox plan" was Xin You's bad idea.

"Hmm... well... six cows were killed by the soldiers, right?"

Xin said to Fan Mu again.

"No, the Rong people only killed four."

Fan Mu said bluntly.

"Six heads! If I say six heads, it means six heads!" Xin said seriously: "If it is four heads, then you can make up for the remaining two heads."

"Ah...uh..."

Fan Mu seemed to understand something: "Yes! They were all killed by soldiers!"

"Yes. Rong people are really hateful!"

Xin gritted his teeth, and Fan Mu also looked bitter and resentful.

This is how the cow matter is temporarily resolved.

Xin continued to direct everyone to build roads.

The main labor force for road construction is the Xin family and some small families.

Cheng and Yin did not send anyone to participate.

This has become a common thing in Xinyi.

Unless it is a major matter related to the vital interests of the two clans, they will not easily contribute people to participate in Xinyi's official affairs.

"It seems that what happened yesterday is not enough to make these two families surrender!"

Xin stretched again, knowing that this matter was not that simple.

"Gentleman!"

Du Gan, the eldest son of the Du family, came over with a cart of dirt.

"Oh? Du Jiazi, haven't you finished yet?"

"The section that our Du family built has been completed. I helped the Mao family pull some soil, and they are almost finished.",

People from the Du family helped other families with their work, and there was no sign of boredom on their faces.

"The small families are weak and must rely on Xinyi, so they are very concerned about the affairs of the public family. On the contrary, the big families only care about themselves and are not so concerned about the affairs of the city."
