When Hua Mulan Met Zhu Yingtai

More than ten days later, another sunny morning.Huafu, which has regained its popularity, started its daily morning practice.

"Sanlang, you made a mistake with this gun. As the saying goes, the stick sweeps a large area, and the gun | picks a line, which means that the gun | sticks in a straight line, and the stick moves into a fan. Look, you made this gun, like a stick Burning fire stick, how can it look like the king of a hundred soldiers. You must know that a gun is not just a stick with a gun|head. You are still young, so you use a light|light gun, and you can use it Like a stick, he is as aggressive as a tiger, but when he changes to an ebony heavy gun in the future, he will know that making a | gun into a stick is something no one can do." Maybe it is because the family of this generation of soldiers has received enough respect, Maybe it's because he is usually told a lot by his own general, but now he is very happy to be with the general's own brother.Anyway, Zhu Yingtai felt that Qi Wu's voice was getting louder, which made her head hurt.

But this quarrel is far from over, and it can even be said to be just the beginning.After Zhu Yingtai silently counted three numbers in her heart, Hua's father's voice also rang out: "Stinky boy, I still don't believe it when I tell you. Only now I meet an expert will I know that your father and I didn't lie to you? If you kid Let your temperament practice | guns, guns are absolutely not suitable for being elegant, and you will be able to practice a flower stick, which will be used when you rush to the state and set up stalls in the future. I want to be like your brother It is absolutely impossible to become famous on the battlefield.”

Cheng, this is really something that a father can do. Using an excellent "eldest son" to criticize the younger son to the point of incompleteness. Fortunately, the relationship between the brothers is good, and the general of the family is also promising, so there is no need to divide the family property or anything, otherwise this would be a chaotic family. source.

However, the old man's body is strong enough, almost half-white, and his voice is still so high-pitched. Even after listening to it for more than ten days, Zhu Yingtai still hasn't fully adapted to it. He feels his temples throbbing when he listens. pain.He couldn't figure out how such a lively and informal family could raise such a taciturn, almost dull, honest person like his own general.

After lingering in her mind for more than ten days, this question was finally answered by Father Hua's routine.

"Sanlang, you brat, don't look at me like that, it's useless to look at me. If you want to fight for a future on the battlefield like your second brother, you can't go fishing for three days and spend two days drying the net like you are now." practice|gun."

The young man's sense of resistance made Hua Xiong choose to talk back: "Then how does my brother practice guns! Aye, tell me, I'll just do it!"

Huahu was waiting for his youngest son's words, and immediately said: "It's not difficult to say, you just need to hold|hold|hold|hold the gun for two hours a day. Don't be too happy, you remember. Gun |A sandbag not lighter than one catty should be hung from the tip, and a bowl of water should be placed on it. If you don’t spill a drop of clean water in the bowl every day, you will be qualified. Otherwise, you will keep practicing. The technique is considered trivial."

This time, let alone Hua Xiong, a half-grown child, even Qi Wu was stunned.

Qi Wu was the first to express the question in his heart: "Old man, who can practice this method successfully?"

"That's right, this method is so demanding, no one can practice it well." Although Hua Xiong, who is half a child, was a little bit late, he quickly raised doubts.

"Stinky boy, can you listen to me! Don't always judge others by yourself, thinking that others can't do what you can't do! Then I'll tell you now, as far as I know, there are people who have succeeded. Do you believe it? Do not believe?"

"Then Aye, you have to tell me who made it!" Hua Xiong, who heard the voice sounded like he had eaten a chestnut, insisted on his last stubbornness, and insisted on another sentence in disbelief.

"Then I'll tell you who this ignorant brat is. Listen to me!"

That's all right now, everyone, including Zhu Yingtai, closed their ears and waited for an answer.However, Zhu Yingtai already had an answer in her heart, but she didn't dare to confirm it.

Just when Zhu Yingtai was trying to find various reasons to deny her almost crazy guess, Huafu's answer came to her ears because she crossed the courtyard wall at the right time: "That person is your second brother. I have practiced for a full year. It takes only half a day to practice for 30 days to qualify."

"That's right, it's no wonder the general has both swords and bows, so he put in such hard work." Qi Wu's words, which were completely subconscious, accelerated the collapse of Hua Xiong, a young man's psychological defense.

"Bow and spear? This kid is really promising. It's worth all the hard work back then."

Father Hua let out a long sigh, which contained many emotions that were difficult to express, but this time no matter how Hua Xiong and Qi Wu pressed him, Father Hua refused to say a single word.

When Zhu Yingtai got the above answer, four months had passed.She, who used Hua Mulan's arm as a pillow, talked about this topic inadvertently during the conversation before going to bed. She also got a similar long sigh, and then the arm around her waist began to tighten. After a long time, a long time passed. When Zhu Yingtai felt that she was almost out of breath, she got a response: "Aye was almost [-] when he retired from the army, and my mother's first child was a daughter, that is, my sister. Later, my mother became pregnant again One child, unfortunately, I accidentally fell down during the pregnancy, and it was activated at seven months. The baby boy was born, but his health was not good, and he died before his full age. I was born later, unfortunately I'm a girl." Hua Mulan's voice was very low for the word girl, and it took a lot of effort for Zhu Yingtai, who had her ears right next to Hua Mulan's mouth, to hear these two words clearly, but she still listened to the words There was a sense of sadness in the words.Unable to replace her body, Zhu Yingtai could only tightly hold Hua Mulan's hands on her waist, hoping to share some burden for her lover.

"As far back as I can remember, I've heard A-Niang and A-Ye moaning and sighing all the time. The discussion was all about my father having no children. What if the court recruits me in the future? Later, my father and mother thought of an idea..."

"Make you dress up as a boy?"

"Well. According to the law of Dayan, the five-year census, my sister is already grown up, and I am the only one suitable for the whole family. So before the next census comes, I replaced the household registration of the deceased brother and dressed as a boy."

Zhu Yingtai became angry for the first time: "How could they do this!"

At this time, Hua Mulan tolerated Zhu Yingtai again with a gentle tone: "Yingtai, don't be like this, calm down. Really, I don't blame Aye, Aniang, really." Growing up in love since childhood, Zhu Yingtai, who was even tacitly allowed by her family to do whatever she wanted as long as she didn't cause trouble, didn't understand why some parents would make such a decision to push their daughter into an unknown abyss.

But Zhu Yingtai quickly understood from Hua Mulan's description what is the sorrow of the poor. Letting Hua Mulan dress up as a man is not a matter of willingness, but a necessary decision.

"Yingtai, listen to me, Aye, Auntie has a lot of difficulties. Auntie hurt her body when she was pregnant with me. The doctor came to see and said that it would be difficult to get pregnant in the future. But the family needs a man, so we must A male is needed, because the condition for the succession of military households is that there must be a male in the family, otherwise the land will be taken back by the government, and the whole family will starve to death. This is what my parents planned. When he grows up, Aye will apply for the recruitment, and I will inherit the military household and keep the land at home first. If the father is old, then I will apply after adopting a child from outside."

At first glance, Zhu Yingtai heard the same tone as usual, but Zhu Yingtai could hear the deep helplessness and pain of her always strong general.

The girl who was supposed to act like a baby in the arms of her parents, was hardened by life into a decisive and decisive iron-blooded general.

Even so, Zhu Yingtai, whose heart was always on Hua Mulan's side, still couldn't swallow this breath: "But Mulan, you obviously have a younger brother." How could a general who she wished to be pampered at the top of her heart become a general who was destined to be abused at home? What about the abandoned child!

"But there is no difference." Seeing that Zhu Yingtai was going to blow up, Hua Mulan calmed down automatically, and comforted her angry daughter-in-law: "You are very smart, Yingtai, you should be able to see it clearly. What is the difference between the second possibility? It’s just that Saburo is of his own blood, and Saburo is an accidental product, and how old was he when I enlisted in the army? He was only eight or nine years old, and he was still peeing and playing with mud. What can he do? ?”

"Okay, okay, don't be angry. I didn't suffer much. I still remember that when I was young, because I wanted to learn martial arts with my father, it was very exhausting for my body. I ate all the eggs at home, and my sister could only watch it. I probably ate it at that time, and my family couldn’t support me. As the saying goes, a half-sized man eats a poor man. I was so hungry that I had to cut branches for arrow shafts and go up the mountain to hunt. I practiced my hand by accident. Good archery."

Zhu Yingtai still held back her words, and there was only one thought in her mind: Mulan, you look so cute when you have nothing to say.

"Take a step back, if I don't want to be drafted into the army, I won't be able to meet you, Yingtai." With a sigh, Zhu Yingtai felt Hua Mulan's head rubbing against her neck, her hair caressing the side of her neck, Itchy.

All the dissatisfaction in Zhu Yingtai's heart was appeased in an instant, and Hua Mulan was startled by turning around suddenly. She hugged her narrow waist tightly with all her strength, and said firmly: " The emperor is above, and the earth is the proof, I wish Yingtai to swear here today, as long as I am here for one day, I will definitely let you eat to your heart's content."

This is a later story, no need to express it again, let's talk about the present.

After the noisy routine in the morning passed, Zhu Yingtai finally freed up her hands to put an end to what had happened during this period.In return, the power of the Deng family in East Lake has been dismantled by Zhu Yingtai, and the family power has been completely expelled from Huangzhou Fucheng. The Deng family's land in Huangzhou was also taken over by the Hua family under the instruction of Zhu Yingtai. The best way to protect yourself is to accept it as soon as you see it. It is an unwise choice, and it is a wise move to save yourself from pollution by collecting some fields.In terms of reputation, Zhu Yingtai also intentionally created some momentum for the Hua family. Apart from advocating the Hua family's benevolence and righteousness to the tenants, she also set up Gu Yingfeng as a model this time, and bought 500 acres of land for the Gu family in one go. , taking the opportunity to establish a benevolent image of the Hua family who knows how to repay their kindness.According to the current rules, a famous official family can make local officials think twice.From now on, as long as Hua Mulan's official position is not lost, and the family sends a few capable accountants to take care of it, the family will feel at ease.Tieguantu's rehearsal was almost finished, and Zhu Yingtai felt elated at the thought of having more than [-] soldiers.

Zhu Yingtai was still thinking about which accountants should be transferred from Yanxi City to the Central Plains to take care of Gu's family business, when a personal guard rushed into the courtyard gate, clasped his fists and saluted: " Joining the army, the yamen came to report to the mansion today."

Zhu Yingtai tore off the cover casually, and looked at it casually as usual.But after a while, his expression changed drastically, and he rushed out directly: "Assemble, prepare the horses, and follow me back to Yanxi!"

The personal guard didn't know why, but he was eager to join the army, so he didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he hurriedly conveyed the order.In fact, if he knew how to read, he could easily find the reason from Zhu Yingtai's discarded residence newspaper.

At the beginning of the Di Bao, there is a message: "The Central Route Army of the Northern Expedition went deep alone. After entering Zheluo City, the food road was cut off by the Rouran people. Several times of food transportation on the front line ended in failure. Chao Xinrui's general Hua Mulan and more than [-] soldiers were trapped in the city, and life and death were hanging by a thread. The Northern Expedition is in danger!"
