Daughter Raiders

Chapter 179 Injured
"Your eighth younger brother will be one year old in a month, but grandma hasn't seen him yet." The old lady put down her chopsticks in a sense of loss, and although her voice was so small that it was more like talking to herself, she was speaking to Tao Ran. of.

Originally when Yu Shi was pregnant, the old lady wanted to ask her to go back to the capital to raise her baby, but after Tao Ran persuaded her to stop her, she agreed to ask Yu Shi to give birth in Suizhong, and then return when both mother and child can endure the exhaustion of traveling and horses. Regardless of the capital city, for example, when the child is three or four months old, it is the season of spring and flowers, and the road will not be too painful.

But now Brother Pan is almost one year old, but Mrs. Yu seems to be addicted to living in Suizhong, and has never mentioned going back to the capital until now. The old lady misses her grandson so much that her hair turns gray!
Tao Ran understood his mother.Grandmother is certainly not a bad person, but her temper is unavoidably too short-tempered, and although the eldest aunt is very easy to get along with, the mother has repeatedly challenged the eldest aunt in the past, so she must take it for granted that she does not want to see the eldest aunt every day; With her as a bereaved star, if she were her mother, she would also like to continue living in Suizhong, let alone the only one, and see her father every ten and a half months...

Not to mention that Aunt Xianyun also gave birth to her ninth younger brother, Brother Chong. The two of them have always lived in the official house behind the Liaodong government office, and they can see their father every day; Brother Pan also moved to Liaodong, just to get Xianyun and Brother Chong out of his father's eyes.

"How about I write a letter for my grandmother in a while, asking my father to send someone to send my mother, brother Pan and Aunt Xianyun back to the capital?" Tao Ran asked with a soft smile as she filled a bowl of soup for her grandmother.

The old lady suddenly realized - it turned out that Mrs. Yu was holding this abacus?Sister Tao dare to speak for her mother so blatantly?
In fact, if Mrs. Yu is not such a small-bodied person, of course the old lady would like to take back Xianyun mother and son. Brother Chong's son is a concubine, and he is also the blood of the third child; Calling Xianyun's mother and son to come back together, if Yu's family is not in order, he will lay hands on Brother Chong'er, won't he?
Tao Ran did not evade her grandmother's scrutiny at all: "A few days ago, I heard from someone sent by the fourth brother of the Mu family that the six major tribes of Khalkha were already discussing to reunite to elect the Khan. Grandma, tell me, after they form an alliance What's the next step?"

After Mu Huan arrived in Liaodong, as he said, he sent people back to Beijing every 20 days to report safety.The old master practiced for Mu Huan before he left, in part to get a quicker and more direct grasp of the movement on the Liaodong border, how could he refuse Mu Huan's personal soldiers to report to the mansion now.

And Tao Ran didn't expect that his grandfather not only rebuilt the old house with Mu Huan, but also called her to the big study in the front when Mu Huan sent someone to report, in a pretentious name, telling her to come back after hearing it so that she could talk to grandma, so as not to save grandma Don't worry about father.

So last year passed, Tao Ran always mentioned Mu Huan in such a natural and undisguised way, the old lady listened to it as it should be, and didn't think Tao Ran was unruly; as time went by, even Cui'e and the others secretly Thinking about it, the sixth girl in my family will marry into the Zhenbeihou Mansion in all likelihood in the future, but I have some doubts in my heart, the son Mu is four or five years older than the sixth girl, in the future...can I wait?
The alliance of the six tribes?The old lady shook the spoon in her hand, she simply put down the small soup bowl and the spoon, but said with a smile: "Grandmother is really confused, you told grandma when you came back from your grandfather's study, why did grandma forget about it?" It's all clean? It's really been a long time since An's life..."

"Then you should write a letter for grandma, telling your father to send them back without further delay. If there is not enough manpower, ask your father to spend more money to hire an escort agency!"

Liaodong is so unsettled, but the third son's family only stays in the capital with one brother, Cen, and the three of them are all in the northeast. If there is another war, wouldn't one of them accidentally be blamed?Even if the third child can't come back with an official position, the two young grandsons must hurry back to bring him back. It's justified to keep the incense for the third child!Sister Tao made a lot of sense!
——Twenty years ago, several major tribes of the Khalkhas also jointly elected a Khan, and after that, he repeatedly violated the frontier and lost his life; Lord Mu led the army for three years, and only then did those few The big tribe broke up and drove the Khalkhas seven or eight hundred miles away from the original border. However, Liaodong was devastated by the war, and it took five or six years to regain its pre-war appearance.

Now, although Mu Yuanjiang, the Marquis of the North of Xinzhen, is guarding the border of Liaodong now, Mu Yuanjiang's ability will never lose to his father. Jun, but the prefect of Liaodong is his third son. Isn't that the reasoning of the saying that if you care about it, you will be chaotic.

When I was secretly startled, I heard chaotic footsteps coming from the hall outside.The old lady was about to sternly reprimand that it was something that didn't have long eyes, but she saw Shen's mother rushing in in a panic, with tears still hanging from the corners of her eyes, and for some reason, the small soup bowl that the old lady had just put down in front of her fell over with a clatter On the table, half a bowl of soup was dripped down.

Tao Ran quickly picked up the handkerchief, and covered the soup with one hand, so as not to splash on her grandmother's legs; but she looked at Shen's mother with sharp eyes: "Grandma hasn't finished her dinner yet, Shen's mother is so flustered and yet Why?"

Normally, no matter which servant's behavior is a little too much, as long as Tao Ran speaks, the weight is no worse than the old lady, but now Shen's mother seems to have not heard Tao Ran's question at all, and the tears in the corners of her eyes seem to be wet again a bit……

"No matter what happened, you shouldn't be so flustered!" The old lady's heart was beating like a drum, but her face became more and more calm: "Wipe the tears off your face quickly, and speak well!"

She wasn't worried that something would happen in Liaodong just after Sister Tao mentioned it. What she was worried about was the old man's entry into the cabinet.It's been two years since there was so much noise, Man Dacheng knew about it, and he still doesn't listen to it, if the old man loses his patience and loses sense in his actions, it will be ruined if he angers the Holy Lord!

"It's the third master..." Although Shen's mother obeyed the old lady's order and took out the handkerchief to wipe away her tears, her throat was choked up: "The third master is injured, old lady!"

Tao Ran's clenched fists loosened after hearing the word "injured".

Because she remembers very clearly that even though her father was the magistrate in Liaodong in his last life, it was in the past few years that the Khalkhas also planned to unite several major tribes at this time, but the real alliance was three years later when a large number of people invaded Liaodong and even more It was five years later, and before that, it was the small cavalry that repeatedly committed crimes...

Calculated in this way, even if Dad has been in Liaodong Mansion for six years, it will be almost two years now, won't it?Daddy will definitely be able to escape that war safely, he will!
Besides, the small cavalry team harassed and harassed around a few villages on the border at most, and could they go deep into the hinterland of Liaodong Prefecture?When the Mu family army stationed on the border of Liaodong, did they eat dry food?
Maybe Dad was just walking or knocked accidentally when he got off the sedan chair!Tao Ran let go of his hands and comforted himself, but tears rolled down from the corners of his eyes.
