The small courtyard is not big, but there are several wing rooms. Xie Chungui didn't know which one to enter, so he turned around to ask, the bearded man saw him, and patted him with a smile: "Don't worry, Li Wuding's family doesn't have any female dolls, just come in as you please, those wearing battle robes and armor It's his house."

Xie Chun returned to his heart and became more and more surprised at Li's residence: "General Li has a great reputation, why doesn't he have any female relatives?"

The bearded man coughed, and replied: "Everyone told him that he was a matchmaker. He didn't want to marry himself. He said that he didn't know how to live or die tomorrow after going to the battlefield, and he didn't want to harm other girls."

Xie Chungui suddenly realized and nodded, got up and walked into Li Wuding's room.

Li Wuding's room is not well furnished, a bed, a round table, a few low stools, if it weren't for the dozens of crumpled military books on the bookshelf, it would be unpopular. Xie Chungui changed his clothes and couldn't help picking them up. He took a few glances at a book of war, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that a long time had passed, so he quickly set up the book of war and hurried out of the room.

In the courtyard, Li Wuding was setting the bowls and chopsticks, and the soldiers around the big round table had already drunk a cup for you and me. Seeing Xie Chungui, the bearded man beckoned and urged: "Master Xie, come quickly! I'll be waiting for you! "

The dishes on the table are not exquisite, and the arrangement can even be said to be very casual, but the taste is very good. A group of big men ate happily, and the wind swept away. After a while, half of the meat and vegetables on the plate disappeared. Xie Chungui and these reckless soldiers Unlike them, he was well educated since he was a child. Compared with these soldiers who directly gnawed on the leg of lamb, his eating behavior can be called extremely gentle.

Li Wuding glanced at the wolf-eating soldiers around him, then at Xie Chungui who was swallowing slowly with his head down, smiled helplessly, picked up an empty plate, filled a large plate full of meat and vegetables and put it in front of Xie Chungui.

Although Xie Chungui is the youngest child in the family, he has never been favored by himself. He has never eaten alone like this. He was so surprised that he waved his hands again and again: "General Li,

I……"

Li Wuding interrupted him: "It's okay, I don't have so many rules here, you should eat enough, after all, you are a tall man, if you don't eat more, how can you beat me?"

Xie Chungui squeezed his chopsticks tightly, said nothing more, and ate rice and vegetables with big mouthfuls.

After drinking for three rounds, the soldiers were already tall, and as soon as they dropped their chopsticks, they began to talk about their feats on the battlefield, and why they became soldiers.

Xie's family has been in the army for generations, and Xie Chungui knew from birth that his future would be a battlefield of gold and iron horses, so when he first heard these reasons for joining the army, he still felt incredible and surprised.

Xie Chungui nodded while listening, then suddenly turned to Li Wuding and asked, "General Li, why did you join the army?"

Li Wuding thought for a while, and said: "I'd better not talk about it, I'm afraid you will be disappointed."

Seeing Xie Chungui staring at him unwillingly, Li Wuding had no choice but to say, "Okay, let me tell you, I joined the army to survive."

Xie Chungui was stunned: "Survive?"

Li Wuding nodded: "When I was 16 years old, there was a famine in the village, but because of the war, the last morsel of food had to be handed over to the court. I had no choice but to serve as a soldier in order to be able to eat."

Xie Chungui asked again: "What about your parents, siblings?"

Li Wuding took the last grain of rice from the bottom of the bowl into his mouth, and said softly, "Everyone is starving to death."

The five words were light and fluttering, no heavier than a feather, but they were like a mountain, and Xie Chungui suddenly lost his voice.

Some people's lofty beliefs and obsessions are just the bottom line for others to live.

Although the banquet was simple, it was extremely enjoyable, and the few people left reluctantly until midnight. After Li Wuding sent off a few soldiers, he returned to the mansion and saw that Xie Chungui had changed his clothes. Li Wuding said: "That generous gift, how about You take it back too? It's too expensive."

Xie Chungui said: "My parents' wishes, I hope General Li will not be disgusted."

Li Wuding couldn't refuse any more, and said with a loud smile: "Then I will accept it first, and when you complete your achievements, I will definitely give you back... no, I will return it twice."

Xie Chungui's eyes were burning with fire enough to start a prairie fire: "Okay."
