After time travel, the system allowed me to keep learning

Xu Yutong smiled shyly. Looking at Chen Yining's face, he realized that Gong Ruixue's mother was also a great beauty. She was gentle and graceful but also had a "femininity" that Xu Yutong had never seen before.

"Madam is joking. Even if she doesn't look at Yutong every day, the child in Madam's belly must be extremely beautiful. Ruixue is already very beautiful, not to mention Madam, you yourself are also a rare beauty."

Chen Yining was so praised that she couldn't stop giggling. The more she looked at Xu Yutong, the more she liked it.

"Where does Yutong's family come from? She looks delicate and looks like a southerner, but her temperament is a bit like a northerner."

Chen Yining held Xu Yutong's hand, but her beautiful fingers were covered with calluses.

"Madam, Yutong's parents were originally from the south, but his father has been in Yanzhou since he joined the army. Although Yutong inherited the appearance of his parents from the south, he grew up in the Yanzhou army, and his temperament is indeed worse than that of Yanzhou. You can't be as gentle as my mother."

Ling Jing had always known that Gong Ruixue liked this new friend very much, but he had never asked about Miss Xu's family affairs. Now that she heard her mention the Yanzhou Army, she couldn't help but feel a little stunned.

"I would like to ask, Miss Xu's father is Xu Shicheng, the commander-in-chief of the Yanzhou Army?"

The Yanzhou Army only recruited a group of soldiers from the south, and very few of those soldiers are still in the army. The most famous among them is the current Yanzhou Commander-in-Chief Xu Shicheng, and Xu Yutong also happens to be named Xu.

"It's my father. Does Mr. Ling know my father?" Although Xu Yutong was asking, he didn't find it strange. His father's reputation on the battlefield was second only to King Ping Jin, and almost everyone in the common people knew Yanzhou guard Xu Shicheng.

Ling Jing shook his head and cupped his hands towards Xu Yutong and said: "I have admired the reputation of the great general for a long time. It is true that a tiger father has no son. Miss Xu went to the battlefield with her father since she was a child. At the age of twelve, she could kill an enemy general among ten thousand people, which made Ling Jing I admire you very much."

Xu Yutong knew that she had hit her by mistake that time, and her opponent had underestimated her because she was a little girl. Just like today's competition with Gong Ruixue, it would be easy to lose if she was caught off guard and underestimated her opponent. Later, Xu Shicheng was afraid that his daughter would be retaliated, so he publicized the matter and created a reputation for Xu Yutong's martial arts skills.

To live up to this reputation, Xu Yutong has never neglected his martial arts since then. Now he is now a young general who can truly lead an army and kill the enemy without changing his expression.

Seeing Xu Yutong's humble wave of his hand, Ling Jing asked what he really wanted to ask: "Yanzhou is the territory of King Pingjin, and the Yanzhou Army has always been supported by King Pingjin. Now that King Pingjin is gone, will the imperial court take over the Yanzhou Army?" A corresponding expense?”

The Yanzhou Army was the life-long effort of King Ping Jin. When the late emperor was in power, King Ping Jin conscientiously guarded the border of Hu State for his royal brother. The Yanzhou Army once became a sharp sword for Bingzhou State, and Hu State was good at fighting, but the Yanzhou Army never let Hu's cavalry set foot on even half an inch of Bingzhou State's territory.

Now that Prince Pingjin's palace is gone, Ling Jing's biggest worry is that the Yanzhou army will run out of food. Once the Yanzhou army is in chaos, the Hu State will definitely send its troops south, and the people of Yanzhou will never have peace again.

When Xu Yutong heard Ling Jing ask this question, he carefully observed Ling Jing's expression. At this glance, he saw a familiar look on Ling Jing's resolute face. Xu Yutong was startled and had a little doubt.

"Before King Pingjin's accident, the prince trained a group of people to manage the prince's property and industry. There were many industries that could make money, and now the Yanzhou Army relies on the profits of these industries to maintain operations. The imperial court did not No one has been sent to take over the military expenses, and the Yanzhou Army is already stretched thin."

Chen Yining looked at Gong Hetong. Ling Jing and Gong Hetong had the same sad expression. People who have been in the military will have their hearts attached to the military and the country throughout their lives.

At this moment, Gong Ruixue and Xiao Yu'er walked in with dishes, and the few of them stopped talking about this topic.

Chen Yining saw Xiao Yu'er running away all day long, so she asked Xiao Yu'er to bring Pan Pan back. Now Panpan is concentrating on holding a plate of shredded pork with green pepper and carefully crossing the threshold. He stepped on his short legs and placed the plate in his hand on the table.

"Panpan is great, but Panpan is too young now and can easily get burned when serving food. You can help your aunt when you grow up. Your task now is to grow up well, okay?"

Chen Yining looked at the sensible Panpan and felt heartbroken. He pulled Panpan into his arms and gently rubbed her face.

"Auntie, Panpan wants to help the family like sister Xiaoyu'er." Panpan flashed her long eyelashes and looked at Chen Yining.

Chen Yining patted Panpan on the head: "Your sister Xiaoyuer is just disobedient. Don't imitate her. Children should do what children should do."

Xiao Yu'er stood aside and watched Chen Yining teasing Panpan. She always knew that her family would treat her well if she brought Panpan back. But Xiao Yu'er still waited until Chen Yining spoke before bringing Pan Pan back. He was lucky to meet such a kind family, but Xiao Yu'er would never take their kindness for granted.

"Come and have a meal. Sister Xu, come and try my cooking. They are all home-cooked dishes. Don't dislike them!"

Gong Ruixue washed her hands and sat down to eat. She took a chopstick and put it on Xu Yutong's plate.

Xu Yutong took a bite, and the aroma rushed through his mouth, as if a firework exploded on his taste buds.

"Isn't this delicious? I have never tasted anything better than this."

Xu Yutong said as he picked up another chopstick and put it into his mouth, feeling the urge to steal Gong Ruixue home again. His talent in martial arts is so high, and his cooking is so delicious. Why not steal it home and earn money with his blood!

Thinking of this, Xu Yutong couldn't help but look at Ling Jing resentfully again, thinking how could this man be so lucky.

Gong Ruixue followed Xu Yutong's gaze and looked at Ling Jing. Could this look... be a sign?

After eating, Gong Ruixue and Ling Jing sent Xu Yutong out together. Only then did Xu Yutong really feel that they were really about to break up now, and he asked Gong Ruixue to remember the letter.

Gong Ruixue responded one by one and patted Ling Jing: "Ling Xiaojing, it's so late and the road is difficult. You can see Sister Xu off."

Ling Jing happened to have something to tell Xu Yutong, so he nodded, picked up a lamp, and left with Xu Yutong.

Gong Ruixue looked at the backs of the two of them, they were so matched, but she felt depressed.

Gong Ruixue suppressed the strangeness in her heart, returned to the room and opened the things sent by Huosang. There are more than a dozen small boxes in a big box, which contain all kinds of Gu insects. Although they are not top Gu kings, each one is in excellent condition.

In addition to these small boxes, there is also a book, which is a copied encyclopedia of Gu species. Gong Ruixue felt warm in her heart, hoping that Sang Lan could cherish this good sister.

"Master Ling came out to see me off because he had something to say to me, right? It just so happened that I also had something to say to Master Ling."
