Get a wife?
Huo Yan was stunned and listened to the movement of the sword in his hand. He turned his head and looked at Mr. Huo in disbelief: "Master, what did you say? I didn't hear clearly."
Mr. Huo said again: "Have you ever thought about getting a wife?"
Huo Yan smiled and lowered his head: "Master, what are you talking about? How can I get a wife like this?"
Now that he is gone, his life or death is uncertain. He still doesn't know when he will come back. What about marrying him?
He had never even thought about it, and he had no intention of having a son to preserve his bloodline.
If you take a wife, isn't this harming the girl?
Mr. Huo said: "I think if you have someone you like, you can marry her back. Even if you have wronged her girl, you are poor and have nothing to say, and she has to be a widow waiting for you. But I also hope that you can have more ties. We must come back alive in the future.”
Mr. Huo didn't know what to say. When he was young, he also felt that a good man was ambitious in all directions and took peace of the world as his own responsibility. Marrying a wife would only affect his speed in fighting wars.
Now that he is older, he has become a bit melancholy and soft-hearted. Perhaps he has seen too many other people's families enjoying themselves and their children and grandchildren enjoying themselves. Perhaps he hopes that Huo Yan can also be more complete.
Huo Yan grinned: "Master, are you worried about me? Don't worry, I will come back to you alive. You should teach Ah Xun well in the past two years. If you feel tired of staying in the Imperial City, just Let’s go to my sister and brother-in-law’s place, it just so happens that my brother-in-law can also train him.”
The corner of Mr. Huo's mouth twitched: "Do you really think that I am your sister and brother-in-law, and you can call me so smooth?"
"What's the matter? My sister has already said that she will be my sister from now on. Man, is it possible that you are still gibbering? Besides, Ah Xun is my junior brother, right? My brother, his sister is my sister, too. There’s nothing wrong with that.”
Mr. Huo thought about it for a while and didn't bother to talk to him anymore. He just accepted it and it didn't seem to be a big deal.
He turned around and walked back into the house. Huo Yan saw this and followed him: "Master, what did you mean by just saying this? Do you want to marry me a wife? I told you, Master, you must not do this? I don't want to !”
"Master, calm down."
Huo Yan was scared to death that his master would find him a wife.
Mr. Huo was helpless: "Okay, okay, I'm just asking casually. I have no intention of marrying you a wife. You can either go to bed or practice your sword. Don't bother me again. I drank too much." ,Dizziness."
Huo Yan felt relieved when he heard what he said: "Okay, I'll go practice swordplay right now."
Huo Yan went back to the courtyard to practice swordplay until midnight, then he stopped, took a bath, and went back to his house to rest.
The night passed quietly.
In the early morning of the next day, when the family gathered together to have breakfast, they heard someone reporting that it was Mrs. Cao, the wife of Zhou and Shi who had replied to the letter.
Su Wan reached out to grab Zai Zi's little hand that was reaching out to grab something, and then asked them to come in.
When Zhou and Cao arrived, the group was sitting around the table having breakfast. Su Wan was holding the child in her arms, and Li Lin was sitting aside, giving her something in the bowl from time to time.
Mr. Huo sat opposite Su Wan, with Su Xun and Huo Yan on her left. The two teenagers were chewing steamed buns, eating one after another, as if their stomachs were like bottomless pits.
Su Xun got up early and went to court. There was a court meeting today and he had left long ago.
Su Wan handed the child to Li Lin, and then went to the east chamber to entertain the two of them.
Mr. Cao has a round face, as big as a silver plate, and looks like a ball of dough. It is not very beautiful, but it is not bad in appearance.
Zhou's expression was a little sluggish, and she looked a little embarrassed sitting there.
Ms. Cao said: "I heard that the princess's birthday was yesterday. I didn't know about it. I didn't come to visit you. I'm really sorry."
Mrs. Cao was a little annoyed with Mrs. Zhou. She thought to herself that such a relative of the princess couldn't remember the birthday. She really didn't know how to behave.
Su Wan smiled gently and said: "Mrs. Shi is serious. Jing Yuan Yuan and I are not here for our birthdays. This time it happened that our husband and wife were in the Imperial City with their children, so we invited a few old friends to come and get together. .”
When Mrs. Cao heard this, Mrs. Shi's eyes flashed slightly, looking a little surprised.
According to the relationship, Su Wan would have to call her cousin-in-law. After all, Shi Huixin is Li Lin's cousin, but calling her Mrs. Shi is really intriguing.
Ms. Cao smiled: "But after all, they are relatives, so I should come and take a walk. If I missed it this year, I will definitely not forget it next year."
Su Wan smiled again: "Well, if it's convenient next year, Mrs. Shi can just come."
This next year obviously seems a bit unreal. Things in the world often fail to keep up with the changes in plans. Who knows if they can spend the next year in the Imperial City. If it is in Shiqiao Village, Cao will have a child of several months next year, and Shi Huixin will also be free. If you don't open your body, you will definitely not be able to go back.
"By the way." Ms. Cao paused and asked Su Wan, "I don't know when the princess will return to Shiqiao Village. My mother-in-law lived here for a few days and felt that she was not very used to it, so she said she wanted to go back. "
"But my husband and I were worried about her going back alone, so we thought about letting her go back with the princess so that she could be cared for on the way and we could feel more at ease."
Su Wan finally understood that Mrs. Cao came to visit today. Firstly, it was about her birthday yesterday. She probably wanted to make friends with her. Secondly, she was afraid that she wanted to send Mrs. Zhou back to the village.
From the corner of Su Wan's eye, she saw Zhou's face stiff and a little languid, her energy seemed to have suddenly disappeared, and her expression was very complicated.
Perhaps she didn't expect that after coming here happily and hard, not only was there no joy, but she would be sent away like this.
Su Wan frowned slightly. Although she had a grudge with Mrs. Zhou, she also knew that Mrs. Zhou was not a person who always looked for trouble. Even if it was about the previous prescription, Mrs. Zhou did not do it appropriately, but she had already made quarrels and made troubles. After that, just tell her clearly and don't do it next time.
It might not be appropriate for Cao to send Zhou away like this.
Of course, people may think that she is a minister's daughter after all, and they don't want to be angry with this country woman, and they don't want to have a mother-in-law oppressing her.
Su Wan asked Mr. Cao: "Does your husband know about this?"
Mrs. Cao paused and nodded: "Of course I know that. Although we are very happy when my mother-in-law comes here, when she comes, my father-in-law will have to be alone in his hometown. It is not good to ask them to separate. That would be convenient. It’s our junior’s fault.”
Su Wan couldn't tell the truth in her words, so he finally had to say: "In this case, I will let you know when I will leave, but please ask Master Shi to send him over in person at that time, otherwise we will not take him. "
