Chapter 209 Do you know my nephew Mu Zitao?
“Okay, go back and sit down and have a good meal. Once we’re done eating, we’ll set off?” Quan Jinghuai drank the tea and swallowed the medicine in his mouth. Finally, he wanted to tell Tianshu that he would set off after finishing his meal, but in the middle of his words, he remembered that Hong Xiaoduo hadn't said where he was going next or which way he was going.
No matter, let's leave it like this for now. She will tell you where to go after leaving this military camp.
Seeing that Master had swallowed the medicine, Tianshu walked towards his seat in response.
"Brother Quan, there is no need to leave in such a hurry. It would be nice to stay in our camp for a few days. Maybe we can see us arrest the second in charge." Shang Lan said to persuade him to stay.
This person is so powerful in martial arts. What a great opportunity to stay for a few days and let him teach me and the other officers in the army.
“Our itinerary has been decided and we don’t want to change it. Quan feels that if the second-in-command is lucky enough to survive, he will probably not dare to stay here any longer and may run away.”
< br>General Mu suddenly thought of another thing, turned around and waved, the middle-aged man sitting at another table He immediately stood up and walked over, approaching: "General, please speak."
General Mu motioned him to come closer, and then lowered his voice and said: "Yunhu, do you still remember the letter my father wrote years ago? "What's the content of the letter?"
Yunhu was startled after hearing this, why did Hao Duanduan suddenly think of mentioning this matter?
"Remember, the old general said in his letter that his hidden illness is getting better, and he told us not to slack off and train our troops diligently." Yun Hu responded while thinking about it.
General Mu shook his head: "If you think about it again, there are other things."
Is there anything else? "Oh, by the way, the letter also mentioned that Sanjin, who was next to Major General Zitao, said that Major General Tao seemed to have a woman he liked. It seemed that he met him on the way to relax. Well, he said that the woman was quite special, and he also brought He has seven children.”
Yunhu said as he thought, in fact, this incident left a deep impression on him. After all, among the three rooms in the Mu family, Mu Zitao had already reached the marriageable age. But he refused to talk about the marriage.
I get annoyed at the mention of marrying him, and there are all kinds of criticisms and criticisms about whether he is good enough or not good enough, and he is saying that the Mu family has plenty of heirs, so why bother urging him to get married?
This is the first time in the past few years that I have heard news about Mu Zitao and the woman.
"General, why did you suddenly think of asking this?" Yun Hu asked in a low voice, puzzled.
Could it be that the general was happy after drinking and suddenly wanted to drink his nephew's wedding wine?
General Mu waved his hand, indicating that he should go back and prepare the food and continue eating.
After watching Yunhu brought by his Mu family walk away, General Mu looked at the table not far away, the table with two young ladies and seven children.
The information about seven good-looking children is correct, but is it really such a coincidence? Is he really the person Zitao likes?
"Brother Quan, do you know my nephew Mu Zitao?" General Mu asked tentatively.
After hearing this, Quan Jinghuai shook his head.
After shaking my head, I suddenly felt that the people and objects in front of me were no longer double images.
My head is no longer dizzy and I no longer feel uncomfortable.
Moreover, I feel that I am getting more and more sober, just like I was before I drank.
It was the medicine that the eldest disciple Tianshu came to feed him. The toothache medicine was just a cover, it was actually a hangover medicine!
Quan Jing thought about it and turned to look at the disciple, only to see that she was still eating.
She seems to have a big heart, but she is actually very considerate.
It’s just that since she and I don’t drink alcohol on weekdays, why do we still carry hangover medicine with us? This medicine is quite effective.
It made him eager to try, and he held the wine jar and greeted each other in return. Come on, keep drinking, no one is afraid of who!
No, why did General Mu ask himself that just now? It's a bit puzzling. General Mu doesn't look like he's drunk too much.
He is the boss in this army, who dares to take turns toasting him!
Seeing Quan Jinghuai shaking his head in denial, General Mu smiled and shook his head, what was wrong with him? How could it be such a coincidence.
Besides, there were three adults and seven children in this group, so it was impossible for them to be the people my nephew met.
General Mu remembered that Hero Quan and his party were about to leave after dinner, and he quickly told Shang Lan at the same table in a low voice to go to the warehouse to prepare money.
Shang Lan stood up and whispered in General Mu's ear: "Then how much preparation is appropriate?"
How much is appropriate? General Mu thought seriously.
A few hundred taels is definitely not enough, it is too little.
This group of pirates has been on the sea for many years. Although they are afraid of him and have not come ashore to disturb the people in recent years, they still rob merchant ships on the sea.
Although the court did not blame him for being useless, he still couldn't live with it.
We are determined to suppress the bandits, but the naval force is insufficient.
There were only a few dilapidated warships, and soldiers who were good at water warfare were not good enough. When he arrived, he found that many soldiers got seasick after getting on board!
In the past few years, he has been frugal on military expenses and focused on training sailors. He was originally depressed, not knowing when he would be able to wipe out the pirates at sea. As a result, isn't the good time coming?
The pirates' lair was successfully recovered. How could a few hundred taels of silver be enough to thank them?
"Here, one, forget it, give me three thousand taels." General Mu finally finalized the number.
He planned to retain part of the tens of thousands of taels of stolen silver that he had collected and use it to train naval warriors, but he did not want to retain too much. If the secret was revealed in the future, it would not sound good.
However, when he thought about how much of the stolen money would flow into the hands of corrupt officials, General Mu felt that instead of benefiting those worms, it would be better to give more money to those who have made great contributions to suppressing bandits.
When Shang Lan heard this, he didn’t think it was too much, and immediately left to make arrangements in the warehouse.
Naturally, those who do this kind of thing are close confidants who have followed General Mu in bloody battles for many years and suffered life and death hardships.
Quan Jinghuai heard their conversation clearly and felt a little excited. He finally had some use for this group of people besides teaching his disciples how to practice martial arts.
After three drinks, the luncheon is over.
When Shang Lan came back, he nodded to General Mu first, which meant that the matter was done.
He walked up to Quan Jinghuai and said with a smile: "If Master Quan passes by here again, he must come to have a drink with us."
"Easy to say, then Quan will say goodbye. We will meet again if we are destined." Quan Jinghuai also likes to interact with these people in the military. It is simple and direct, without any tricks.
Seeing the farewell gesture, Hong Xiaoduo and the others walked over with the children and greeted General Mu and others again with a smile and nod.
“My dear lady, please stay.” General Mu suddenly shouted as he watched his subordinates see Quan Daxia and his entourage away. They were already more than ten meters away.
Hong Xiaoduo and his party stopped and turned around to look over together.
"I would like to ask, do you know my nephew Mu Zitao?" General Mu looked at Feiyan and asked.
This must be the one my nephew is interested in...
