Sir, I just want to be a salted fish

Chapter 216 Not Returning
This happy event made her mother-in-law's mood fluctuate so much that Tang Bingxuan changed the topic at the right time.

"Mother, yesterday Shunian said that she wanted to find a martial arts master for Kangkang and An'an. My daughter-in-law wants to discuss the salary and worship of the martial arts master with her mother."

Sure enough, after hearing that she was hiring a martial arts master for the twins, Mrs. Hou's thoughts turned to her grandson.

"I have no objection to Kangkang wanting to learn martial arts. Why should An An, a girl, want to learn martial arts?"

"It's not that Shu Nian was afraid that An An would be easily bullied because he didn't have martial arts skills, so he, the slave girl, decided to let An An learn martial arts from him."

Jiang Shunian's original intention was that he heard that his mother-in-law was worried about the life of his aunt's husband's family. Later, he thought of Tang Bingxuan being kidnapped several times and couldn't be soft-hearted.

Even if you are closely protected by people with strong martial arts skills, you never know when someone will take advantage of you. Others are not as capable as you and you can defend yourself better.

Mrs. Hou also felt that the girl's body was weak due to being pampered, and learning some martial arts could at least strengthen her body. The eldest daughter-in-law, Xiao, was a good example.

"An An is a girl after all. It's okay to learn some martial arts, but she can't be as demanding as boys like Kang Kang."

Their family comes from a family of military commanders. The eldest grandson, Jiang Zepei, has been practicing martial arts since then. No matter how hot or cold the weather is, he always wakes up early to practice martial arts;
If nothing unexpected happens to the remaining three grandsons, the same is true. Even if the second wife takes the imperial examination and becomes an official, the boys' martial arts must not fall behind.

"Don't worry, mother. My daughter-in-law will ask Shu Nian to talk to Master Wu when the time comes."

...

The late night in October was as cold as water. Jiang Shunian didn't know what urgent matters he had to deal with. He left the house in the morning and hasn't come back yet.

Tang Bingxuan put the children to sleep, told the nannies to take better care of them at night, and returned to her dormitory.

Ever since Jiang Shunian had a vacancy in the imperial army, Tang Bingxuan would hardly hear anyone behind her back laughing at her when she went out for a banquet.

Not to mention how Jiang Shunian got his position, Tang Bingxuan made friends that were beyond their reach.

In the past, people often compared Qiao Waner and Tang Bingxuan. After all, they were both from the Duke's family or the eldest daughter of the family, but the people they married were completely different;

Looking back now, it is true that Mr. Qiu is talented, but he is still in the Hanlin Academy. His Majesty probably has not even seen what he looks like.

It is said that when a woman gets married, she expects her husband to be a marquis, prime minister, and wife, but now it is exactly the opposite for Tang Bingxuan and his wife, but they complement each other.

Tang Bingxuan didn't pay much attention to the changes between the two. She was open-minded and open-minded, and she didn't live for the praise of outsiders.

It's just that she was worried about Jiang Shunian's secret plans in the past, but now that her future is on the bright side, she is still worried about it. She can't escape if she falls into a trap, which goes against her original intention before they get engaged.

Tonight, Zhixia did not go home to keep vigil for Tang Bingxuan outside. Since the four maids got married, Tang Bingxuan basically no longer asked them to stay on night watch and only used the little maids.

Zhixia heard Tang Bingxuan in the inner room tossing and turning on the bed and walked in softly with a candle.

"Ma'am, can't you sleep?"

Tang Bingxuan sat up, lifted the bed curtain, and looked at Zhixia who entered the room.

"Zhixia, I always feel like something happened tonight, and I feel very panicked."

Zhixia lit the candle in the room and stepped forward to the edge of the bed.

"Madam, you are too worried. If you can't sleep, how about I bring you a storybook?"

"I have no idea and am not interested in reading the notebook." Tang Bingxuan patted the edge of the bed and motioned for Zhixia to sit down and talk.

"Why did the third master tell you before he left that he asked you to come and watch the night?"

Jiang Shunian went out early in the morning, and Tang Bingxuan thought he was on duty in the palace. He didn't return in the evening, so she saw Zhixia coming to keep vigil for her at night, so she was naturally a little uneasy.

In Kyoto, it is not impossible to say that Jiang Shunian's sudden rise has caused other people's mistakes, but it will not cause revenge on the women in the inner house.

No matter how much she thought about it, Tang Bingxuan felt that tonight was a bit unusual, and Jiang Shunian's whereabouts were also suspicious, but she had no other sources of information in the house.

"The third master just sent a message after dinner asking the slave to stay on duty for you tonight. He didn't say anything else.

This servant is thinking that the third master has something important to do today and will not be able to come back. I am afraid that you will disappear like last time. "

Zhixia leaned forward and tucked Tang Bingxuan into bed, "Madam, don't worry, Third Master is worried about you."

Tang Bingxuan leaned on the big pillow and glanced at Zhixia, "He was too worried. He once asked me if I could learn to behave."

Zhixia had been married and had children for several years, and her temperament was no longer as cold as before, but more smoky.

"Yes, yes, this servant knows your lady's abilities best. It's getting late, so you should rest quickly. Tomorrow, you will have to take the fourth young master and the second young lady to see Master Wu."

Tang Bingxuan and Zhixia said a few words and felt relieved. Thinking of taking the children to see the martial arts master introduced by Mr. Tang tomorrow, she quickly lay down to sleep.

Zhixia tucked Tang Bingxuan into bed and put down the bed tent, and waited until she fell asleep listening to Tang Bingxuan's steady breathing before turning off the lights and going out to rest.

The next morning, the housekeeper brought a sturdy man to the main courtyard to pay homage to Mrs. Qiao and the third wife Tang Bingxuan.

This martial arts master was a figure in the world that Jiang Shunian asked Third Master Tang to find. His surname was Chen Mingke. He heard that his martial arts skills were extremely high, and Qinggong was even more impressive.

Of course, on the surface, this Master Chen is following the path of Jiang Shunian's father-in-law, Rong Guogong. He is the martial arts master hired by Rong Guogong at a high price for his grandson.

Master Chen is about thirty years old. He is tall and imposing, with a beard on his face that makes it difficult to see much of his features. His words are honest and direct, but his demeanor is very friendly.

Although Master Chen is tall and clumsy, he is as light as a swallow when he is showing off his talent to the ladies and young ladies of the Marquis in the main courtyard.

Kangkang and An'an watched with confusion as Master Wu swung from one end of the yard to the other, and even jumped to the roof. He could still fly in the air, and they clapped their hands happily in praise.

"Master Chen is so awesome!"

Kangkang and An An said in unison, "Grandma, mother, we want to learn martial arts from Master Chen."

Since Master Chen was hired by Duke Rong at a high price, he certainly has real skills, even if he doesn't need to show it to Mrs. Hou at this time.

It seems that Master Chen is trying to stimulate Kang Kang and An An's interest in learning martial arts. He is a capable person who knows the methods and can teach students according to their aptitude.

Before Jiang Shunian returned home at this time, Mrs. Hou's mother-in-law asked the housekeeper to arrange Master Chen in the guest room in the outer courtyard and start teaching An An and Kang Kang martial arts from tomorrow.

Jiang Shunian returned home before dinner, and there seemed nothing unusual about the family of four and Mrs. Hou having dinner in the main courtyard.

The couple took the children back to the three-bedroom courtyard and put the children to sleep before they had time to be alone.

"What happened last night?"
