The husband's son-in-law

Wang Hu didn't stay long in Li Mansion, just stayed for one night, and rode back to the battlefield the next day.

Brother Lin sent the brother Wang Hu, and Wang Jian was by his side.Wang Hu raised his arms and imitated his mother's appearance when visiting relatives during New Years and holidays. He sent the two of them in from the air, and said, "Don't send it off, don't send it off."

"Go back."

Brother Lin stayed up all night last night by Meng Jianyun's bedside. His eyes were a little red today, but he still insisted on sending Wang Hu out. He heard what Meng Jianyun said. Later, when he was going back, he was confronted by Fan Guo. Although there were not many scattered soldiers, he was seriously injured at that time, and it was Wang Hu who fought his way out with his back.

This is life-saving grace.

"Brother Wang is safe on the road, this is a burden." Brother Lin said.

Wang Jian handed over the heavy bundle in his hand, and added: "The inside is what Li Lin and his wife prepared, some pills to stop bleeding and save lives, and the meat pie baked just this morning. Take it with you."

"How can this be possible, I—" Wang Hu stretched out his hand to refuse.

Wang Jian directly put it on the big hand that declined, and when Wang Hu touched something with his hand, he shrank his fingers, his head was steaming, and he stammered, "Then, I'll take it, go back, go back." Turn over on the horse with the burden and refuse to send it off.

The shadow of the horse is far away and out of sight.

Wang Jian said to Brother Lin: "Come back, it's windy at the door, you stayed up all night last night, you have to take care of Meng Jianyun and the children, you have to pay attention to eating, drinking and resting yourself."

"I know brother, I won't stay up anymore, and my husband also told me." Brother Lin fell asleep beside the bed in a daze when he stayed there until midnight, but he didn't sleep well. He woke up as soon as he moved his arm on the bed. Meng Jianyun's eyes.

Brother Lin then went to bed. Although he still didn't sleep well, but he felt warm when he was next to Meng Jianyun's arm, and he felt much more at ease.

But Wang Hu rode his horse all the way out of the city with a smoldering face, the fingertips holding the rein became hotter the more he thought about it, the cheeks of a thick and dark man were hot, and he couldn't help feeling sorry for his clumsy tongue, Stuttering, why did I touch my brother's finger.

should not.

Wang Hu got angry for a while, and turned back to look in the direction of Li Mansion in Zhaozhou. It was far away, blocked by the city gate, and he couldn't see anything. He thought that he had no parents, no mother, no land, and he didn't even have a home. Pin it on the waistband, there is no tomorrow, what is he thinking?

A fist as big as a sandbag hit his head. Wang Hu regained his senses and went to Xinzhou on horseback.

It's just that when eating meatloaf on the road, I always think about the meal I went to the stove house last night.

Meng Jianyun was carried back at the time, and he looked bad, but it may be because Oda's medical skills have improved, or Meng Jianyun is young and has good recovery ability. He woke up that night and could speak a few words. God, people can sit, walk, and eat by themselves.

Brother Lin heaved a sigh of relief.

"It looks better now, but don't be in a hurry, make it up slowly, at least wait until the New Year is over before going back." Gu Zhao told Meng Jianyun, his tone was affirmative.

Li Zhouzhou said beside him: "New Year's Eve is one month away, take good care of yourself at home, and spend more time with brother Lin and Yuan Bao, Yuan Bao's name, you just think about it when you become a father."

Gu Zhao and Li Zhouzhou got the nickname Yuanbao.

Li Zhaoxi is very happy. His name is Fu Bao, and his nephew is Yuan Bao. It looks like a family.

Because Brother Lin had a difficult birth, Meng Jianyun just stayed by Brother Lin's side at that time, and the child was taken care of by a stable woman. Wang Jian watched and learned to take care of him until Brother Lin passed the dangerous period and woke up. , People have the spirit to ask children.

Meng Jianyun, who is a father, found out, where is the child?

The child's nurse came to show it.

Afterwards, when Brother Lin recovered a little bit and was able to sit up and hold the baby with energy, the adults were happy and asked for a name—because Meng Jianyun couldn't stay long, and they couldn't wait until Brother Lin was out of confinement before discussing it, so they decided to give it a name. Picked up early.

Brother Lin just looked at Meng Jianyun, everything was according to Meng Jianyun's wishes.

Meng Jianyun didn't say anything at the time, and his face was still a little grim, so he was vague about the matter. Li Zhouzhou said that he was not in a hurry, and called Xiaomeng out again, saying, "Brother Lin risked his life to give birth, brother Originally, the heir is difficult and the child is innocent, so don't get involved in the child, let Brother Lin think that you don't love the child, this is the life of the two of you."

"Turn back and tell Brother Lin to be honest, don't make him sad when he is in confinement."

Meng Jianyun immediately listened and said yes.Back in the house, the couple closed the door and started talking.Meng Jianyun said that he loves children, but you are so tired of giving birth to him that you almost—

Speaking of this, Meng Jianyun's eyes turned red.

Brother Lin couldn't understand, knowing that Meng Jianyun cared about him, not just because he hated children.Later Meng Jianyun mentioned the name, "I think our child has the father's last name, what do you think?"

"I depend on you."

Brother Lin knew what Meng Jianyun wanted, his surname was Gu and his surname was Li, they were all the same in Meng Jianyun's heart, father and father were one, but outsiders gossip that they are adopted sons, what kind of family property should be divided, if now The child's surname is Li, so there is something to say.

Later, Meng Jianyun went to the adults and the boss and explained what he meant.

Gu Zhao was taken aback when he heard that, "My surname?" He remembered that when he bought Meng Jianyun, Meng Jianyun was very obsessed with his surname, and wanted to pass on the family name of the Meng family, so why does he have the same surname now.

It's not a joke to Meng Jianyun, he knows that the child cares about his kindness, but he doesn't have to go against his will.

"At that time, when my mother was desperately protecting me and my eldest brother, she said that we must survive. As long as we have a bite of food along the way, my brother will give it to me. If only one person survives, it depends on me. There are still people in the Meng family."

Meng Jianyun's persistence in the inheritance of his surname is just that he fled all the way and carried the expectations of his family.

But now it’s different, I’ve read a lot and seen a lot, and between life and death a few times, it seems that people have thought about it a lot. His wife is Li Lin, who taught him to read and write, respected him and helped him. They are all adults and bosses. , It is kindness and family affection.

Gu Zhao knew Xiaomeng's meaning, but he was very moved, but said: "The child is a baby born to you and Brother Lin. It was born from parents who love each other. It has a good surname with you and Brother Lin. I agree with it." .”

"How about this, your father and I will choose the nickname, and you, the parents, will choose the nickname yourself."

Later, the nickname Yuanbao came into being.

The name has been empty all the time. Now that Meng Jianyun is recuperating, the husband and wife can think about it together. After a few days, Brother Lin first said: "I thought about it, and I will give Yuan Bao a stop."

Meng Zhige.

"Okay." Meng Jianyun nodded.

Later, when Gu Zhaoli heard about it on Zhou Yi Zhou, he also thought it was a good name. Stop fighting as soon as possible, quell the war, and the world will be peaceful. Meng Jianyun will not go to the battlefield to fight.

How good.

This year's Li Mansion was so lively that the Li family was even invited to stay for a few days—Meng Jianyun is now a fifth-rank military officer with a rank on his body. Back then, the Li family disliked Meng Jianyun as a house slave, but now he is different.

Brother Lin's parents, two elder brothers and sister-in-law are here.

"It's rare that Xiaomeng is at home. Brother Lin hasn't come back since he got married. Although we have gone to the ceremony and still have letters, there are inevitably some rumors that we despise Brother Lin and look down on the Li family. Let alone the past, it is Brother Lin after all. Sons and parents, this year the young couple has become a family of three, so it's time to take the Li family to have a look." Li Zhouzhou said with his grandpa.

Gu Zhaoting understood the meaning, "How could I run on people? I'm not narrow-minded and don't hold grudges."

Li Zhouzhou: ...

"...Remember a little bit, I wanted to brag about Xiaomeng, this official rank is fast enough." Mr. Gu can only tell the truth.

No wonder it is said that heroes come out of troubled times, and it is said that wars are praised for their merits.

"Wife, can't you really say nothing? I came here in secret?" Master Gu is determined to fight for it. Xiao Meng is now well-off, and he, as a adoptive father, doesn't show off. "It's like a brocade night walk !"

Li Zhouzhou was amused to see his husband playing a scoundrel, and said: "You can't make trouble with me, we are in-laws."

"I know, I know, good in-laws." Mrs. Gu happily received the order.

Zhaozhou City sent people to pick it up, the carriages were made of rubber tires, and now the common people saw that the wheels were black, and they automatically avoided it, knowing that it was a government car - even rich and noble families would not use it.

The car is called "Gaosheng car", which means that riding in this car means that the official will be promoted all the way.

The big car arrived at the gate of Li's house in Jiting. The guard at the door of Li's house bent a little when he saw the wheels, and hurried forward to meet him. Hey, is he an old acquaintance——Li Mu's father.

In the past, Li Mupai was a receptionist who did rough work outside the Li family, but now he has not seen him for a long time, his clothes are new, and there seems to be a few creases on his face, it seems that he is living a good life in Lifu, Zhaozhou.The concierge muttered in his heart, but his face didn't show it, and he was still enthusiastic.

All the way into the study room of the main courtyard, Brother Lin's father personally questioned him. He heard that the Li Mansion sent a car to pick up Brother Lin's relatives to Zhaozhou for a few days of Chinese New Year reunion, and sent a letter.

In the end, he was overwhelmed, so Lin Ge'er's father took the letter and hurried to find his father - the head of the Li family, Lin Ge'er's grandfather.

"Brother Lin's brother-in-law has become an official father."

No one has reported to the Li family about Meng Jianyun's promotion to a junior general - the main reason is that the war was chaotic at the time, and Meng Jianyun did not come back, so the news did not make sense. Feel free to mention this—at that time, Meng Jianyun was not a fifth-rank military officer.

That is to say, at this time, Brother Lin ran to the main courtyard with the letter, and within a short time, the news spread throughout the Li family. Brother Lin's parents were overjoyed, dear elder brother Even my sister-in-law, and other house uncles, uncles, cousins, and uncles all rushed over after hearing the news.

The letter written by Li Zhouzhou was read by several Lin brothers and uncles in turn, and accompanied by Lin brother's grandfather calling: "Be careful, don't break it."

Can't help sighing: "Our Li family is also on the side of being an official."

Although he is a military officer, the Li family ancestors have never been an official for generations.

Brother Lin's father and the two elder brothers are also proud. Originally, Brother Lin's father complained that his wife didn't know how to teach the children, and taught someone who had no rules and dared to elope. straight up.

In short, it is a great event, and now there are still some days before the Chinese New Year, so I might as well go and stay for a few days, and wait for the New Year's Eve to come back - and to worship the ancestors.

However, the female relatives can stay for a few days, and the female relatives cannot enter the ancestral hall.

Brother Lin's grandma said to her daughter-in-law: "...Don't rush back, look at Brother Lin more, he is definitely inexperienced in raising children by himself, you need to help out more."

Brother Lin's mother agreed, and the two sisters-in-law were also happy.

After that, he packed up his luggage and set off. In just one day, the brother-in-law of the Li family who married the adopted son of the Li Mansion became a fifth-rank military officer. After packing up, the Li family got into the car under the envious eyes of everyone watching.

There is another little episode.

At first, it was a distant relative of Li's family watching the excitement, hugging her child, and wanted to take a ride in a high-speed car. Her child was only six years old, and he wanted to send him to study in the state government school next year, so he came to get auspicious.

"Brother Lin's son-in-law was just a—" the servant said in a low voice, "Now they are all officials and lords, so it can be seen that Li's mansion is very lucky. gone."

They also had to give the people of Lifu money to ride in the car. This ride is for children to sit on the head. It is not a problem to walk two steps on the cement road in front of Li's house. Naturally, the people of Lifu did not dare to accept money, so they agreed.

I made this opening, and later people listened to it and figured it out, so many people begged for a ride with money—these are all well-to-do businessmen from Ji Ting's family, and it doesn't matter if they follow the Li family. Are you angry?

The servants of Li's mansion did not take money, and later these people caught melon seeds, peanuts and candies and gave them away.

Later, the children of the Li family will also sit, not only the boys, but also the only girl in the Li family, Fei Niang, who is already engaged, but now her mother is envious of Brother Lin's brother-in-law, so she said: "You Go sit down too."

Feiniang was too young to be embarrassed, "Aniang, why should I sit, my husband's family doesn't fight wars and study."

"Then what about the baby you gave birth to? It's almost Chinese New Year, so let's go for auspiciousness."

Fei Niang's face was blushing, she had no hope of becoming an official's wife, but when she thought of having a child in the future, the mother of an official would be a good one, so she really went to sit down.

In the Li family, both she and her cousin were favored, but Fei Niang was fine. Her mother always compared her to brother Lin's brother, saying that grandma gave Lin brother better materials than hers, and jewelry was better than hers. The extra box is because brother Lin has been away for a few years, she has it every year, isn't it normal to have an extra box.

Later, brother Lin proposed marriage, and her mother also talked about the chosen husband's family. After all, he is a brother, and he is also old. The choice is not as good as my girl. There are too many people queuing up to marry Fei Niang. Xiaoduo picks and chooses.

Later, Brother Lin ran away—even though the outsiders didn't know about it, Niang Fei guessed something, and her mother started talking again, saying that Brother Lin had no rules and endured hardships. You are not allowed to learn from Brother Lin. Living a life of wealth and happiness, but with what kind of servant.

Now, her mother also talked about it, but changed it: "Why is his life good, why did he become an official wife..." The tone was sour.

Feiniang is also envious but not jealous. Elder brother brings her clothes and jewelry fabrics every year when he comes back from Zhaozhou. Although her mother repeats a few words, it is not evil. She is not as brave and courageous as elder brother, so she can only Live peacefully and steadily.

I just hope that her child will have a bright future.

The Li family got into the carriage, the men were riding horses, and the women were sitting in the carriage. They couldn't help but marvel that the carriage was different from the one at home. It was light and not bumpy at all. They were all wearing new clothes and jewelry, and their faces were beaming. , It is also a good thing to say.

The team of chariots and horses entered Zhaozhou City and stopped in front of the Li Mansion.

The servants passed on the message, and Li Zhouzhou and Gu Zhao went to meet him in person.This meeting was a polite one, Li Zhouzhou received Brother Lin, Aniang and his two sisters-in-law, while Master Gu talked to Brother Lin warmly.

He said auspicious words, entered the gate and walked in.

"...the one who was carried back, fought with their lives, the in-laws didn't know if they had seen it before, his father and I were so frightened when we saw the child, our faces turned pale with fear, and we were almost dead at the time... how can parents If you don’t feel sorry for your own children, I’ll say why you’re working so hard, what kind of official is not an official, why not live a good life, even though I’m the only official in our family, I can stand it.”

Brother Lin just laughed, not knowing what to say.

Mr. Gu patted the back of his in-laws' hands and said, "We all have children, you must understand my heart. Xiaomeng is a child who strives for strength and loves Brother Lin. The official who got this injury in exchange said that he will give it to Lin in the future." My brother earns his fate..."

Master Gu said this himself, Meng Jianyun would not say it even if he had the intention, he would just do it silently and not say it.

Along the way, the Li family members didn't know what to say. When they saw their brother-in-law, they had mixed emotions. They felt that they had been beaten and humiliated, but Mr. Gu was right. It was their family who Dislike and look down upon Meng Jianyun, Meng Jianyun put his life on the line, this is true love and protection for Brother Lin.

Therefore, the emotions are complicated, there is some guilt in the shame, and a little comfort in the guilt.

After all, it's my own child, brother Lin just needs to live a better life now.

Li Mansion was very lively a few years ago. The Li family saw Yuanbao and gave many red envelopes, golden longevity locks, and gold bracelets. The small patterns on them were auspicious and safe. Xiao Yuanbao is almost one year old, not the kind of chubby baby .

Brother Lin's skeleton is a bit smaller. In order to prevent dystocia, he has been controlling his diet. He didn't let him eat too much and get too fat. Yuan Bao has long legs and long feet.

Now that she has been breastfeeding for almost a year, she is white and tender, healthy and strong, but not so chubby-compared with Liu Tao's Yue Niang, that is not so good.

In the adult's mind, children are only cute if they are chubby, and their arms and legs are as thick as lotus roots. How lucky they are.Therefore, facing Yuan Bao, the female family members of the Li family felt sorry for the child, felt that brother Lin was inexperienced, and said a lot about raising children.

Brother Lin said afterwards: "It's also because I was so angry. He kept losing his face until he came back. He felt that the husband and wife still remembered things that were not allowed by our family. This is my opinion. I think it didn't work out." Off."

Xiaomeng went to war, so how could he have time to accompany Brother Lin back home.

Brother Lin's father actually thought so too, and even felt that Meng Jianyun abducted Brother Lin, and after they got married, he whispered in Brother Lin's ear behind his back, so that Brother Lin would not get close to them, sow discord and alienate them.

Looking at it now, I really misunderstood the child.

"You stay a little longer, I think the Li Mansion is still interested."

"I know, I heard that the servant is called Mrs. Lin. The yard here is bigger than Fubao's. Lin is still learning how to be a housekeeper. Li's mansion is the best house." Lin said motherly, Now that I think about it, this marriage was a high priority for them. At that time, lard was deceived. They only heard people say that they were domestic slaves, and Brother Lin was a slave when he married.

Don't mention these now, it's fine.

Brother Lin's mother closed the door and talked privately with Brother Lin.

"He is an official now, the fifth grade is not too young, so don't go to war, come back to live in peace and life, Yuanbao is still young, you can look after the child and have a housekeeper, you can't be too busy."

Brother Lin said with a gentle voice, "Mother, I'm not tired. Ever since I was pregnant with Yuan Bao, Father let me rest and let me take care of it. Now it's the housekeeper Zhou who is doing chores. I'll just take a look at it. "

In the Li family, Grandma Li took care of the back house in a meticulous manner. Later, she didn't have the energy to divide the housekeeping among the daughters-in-law, so she took care of it carefully.But Li Mansion is different, Li Zhouzhou teaches the skills of manipulating people, so it is not too tiring.

Besides, these days when Meng Jianyun came back, it happened to be Chinese New Year, so Li Zhouzhou took over and let the young couples get together and talk sweetly.

"Then I won't go to the war. I think Xiaomeng listens to you, and he will agree if you say so."

"I know." Brother Lin lowered his brows and said softly, "But if he wants to go, I will support him. Aniang, I'm not afraid of being lonely at home."

Mother Li tried to persuade her again and again, but Brother Lin was still quiet, obedient, gentle and shy, but when he finally left the room, he didn't persuade him on a single thing, and it was a waste of words.

I really don't know what to say.

The Li Mansion in Zhaozhou celebrates the New Year here, and the barracks did not stop for the previous month. There are rewards for meritorious deeds, and the most important thing is how to settle down after defeating Nanyi—occupation and guarding the place.

In fact, in the original trajectory, Li Wubing killed Nan Yi's blood relatives from his natal family.Naturally, there is a reason. In the original, Rong Er did not come to Rongzhou, and Li Wubing naturally did not meet Rong Er. He was designed to lure him into the Nanyi camp.

Li Wubing escaped after a narrow escape, and after many twists and turns, he wanted to go back to Dali and the barracks, but what he heard was Dali’s resolute words, which meant that Nanyi would kill if he wanted to, and would not pay a single soldier for Li Wubing. Not to mention the city.

At that time, Li Wubing said that sentence: Nanyi called him a bastard, Dali hated him, who the hell is he?

Later, after surviving without illness, he became a mad dog. No one could hold him back. He climbed up through the ranks with his merits. He killed people like hell urging people to die. Everyone was afraid of him. He took the head of the king of Nanyi in a battle. .

But Rang Li Wubing killed the other family's family, and even slaughtered the entire royal family of Nanyi, there is still a fuse.

Li Wubing's achievements in killing the Nanyi king were too dazzling. At that time, the fifth prince's Tianshun Emperor was naturally afraid, so he sent people back to Beijing to test - the fifth prince's Tianshun Emperor wanted to save this mad dog's life to fight with the second prince. The sick birth mother Yi Taifei wanted to live without illness.

A dagger pierced Li Wubing's chest, if Li Wubing hadn't dodged, he would have died suddenly on the spot.

Concubine Yi said a lot at the time, anyway, Li Wubing came out of Concubine Yi's palace covered in blood, she was completely insane and perverted, without a trace of family affection, and then attacked Nanyi the next year.

Since then, there has been no royal family with the Nanyi Nan surname.

Of course not now, when Li Wubing was in despair for the first time, he met Li Fu who was helping him, and Rong Ye. He used to rely on killing, killing all the family members, killing all Dali's relatives, and got it. The title of the mad dog tyrant.

Now, except for the new king of Nanyi, the other royal families of Nanyi are only detained, waiting for the will of Emperor Tianshun.

But what should come has come.

Half a month ago, Emperor Tianshun Zhaoli returned to Beijing without illness.
