After wearing the book, I became the mother of three villains

Chapter 118 Just Tell Your Child No
Ah Zhike read all the books in Yao's study, and many of his ideas were slowly formed from reading.

Yao Shu has always respected the children's choices, so it's good for Ah Zhi to have his own ideas.

She picked up food for the two children, motioned them to eat and said, "Daddy has asked someone to contact the school in the town, and Mommy will take you to have a look someday. Study and study with other children in the town. It’s also a pleasure to make more friends.”

Neither Ah Zhi nor Ah Si resisted reading, but enjoyed it very much. Hearing this, they nodded obediently.

After lunch, Yao Shu took Sanbao out to play again, and Ah Zhi and Ah Si followed.

The three of them went to the cloth shop, and took a stroll around the town. They waited until it was dark before they bought a drawer of warm meat buns and went home.

When they arrived at the door of the house, they happened to catch up with Lin Rong riding a horse from the direction of the patrol mansion. The two children ran over to greet him one after the other: "Daddy, daddy! Are you back?"

Lin Zhi lightly pulled the reins, and the tall reddish-brown horse stopped obediently, raised and lowered its hooves, and snorted.

The tall man got off his horse neatly, picked up one in each hand, and put Ah Zhi and Ah Si in his arms.

He approached Yao Shu and called her in a low voice: "Ashu, I'm back."

The twilight is all together, the setting sun has quietly fallen to a place out of sight, but the sunset has dyed the sky red.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, Lin Zhi was against the light, and his phoenix eyes were fixed on Yao Shu's face. His focused eyes were as bright as morning stars, giving people a feeling of affection.

Yao Shu's heart was itchy and numb as the warm night wind blew gently.

She smiled and agreed: "Well. Let's go home."

Today, she is wearing a light-colored dress, her eyebrows and eyes are soft and gentle, she is holding the three treasures who opened her mouth to "babble" in her arms, and she is holding a steaming steamed bun in her other hand——

Such a picture full of life breath fascinates Lin Rong.

He and she carried a few children and stepped into the small courtyard together.The sound of laughter and conversation was blown away by the distant wind, and sent to the willow branches rattling in front of the courtyard gate in the night.

……

The family's dinner is not complicated, Yao Shu cooked millet porridge in the morning before going out.

By the time of dinner, the aroma of millet has been fully boiled out; with a few red dates, the fragrance and sweetness are mixed, and the fragrance is tangy.

The two children were tired from playing, so they ate several meat buns with the fragrant and soft millet porridge, and even Sanbao drank half a bowl of rice porridge.

The whole family ate a whole drawer of steamed buns, and Lin Roe took care of the last few. Seeing that he had finished eating, Yao Shu was afraid that he would not have enough: "How is it? Are you not full? I'll go to the kitchen and get you another bowl." noodle?"

Lin Roe shook his head: "No need. You don't need to eat more at night. You are tired all day today, so don't bother."

Yao Shu couldn't laugh or cry——

This whole drawer of steamed stuffed buns is enough for their mothers to eat for a whole day, but unexpectedly adding a piece of steamed stuffed buns would still not be enough for them.

She really underestimated the man's appetite.

Yao Shu asked Ah Zhi and Ah Si to watch his younger brother, and he and Lin Zhi went to the kitchen with the bowls and chopsticks.

She lit the oil lamp, but when she turned around, she saw that the man had already started to wash the dishes. She couldn't help being taken aback, and asked him, "You can see if you don't light the lamp?"

Lin Rong nodded, and the tall man stood bent over in front of the stove, his deep facial features also looked very soft under the orange light.

"In the days and nights of the training camp, there should be no fire. The team needs to use the moonlight to pass through the complicated mountains, and there must be no sound during the whole process..."

He seldom talked about his life at the border, and mentioning it occasionally was enough to attract Yao Shu's full attention.

She looked at Lin Rong's silhouette in the slightly dim light, and asked him, "Are you going to train at night?"

The man kept moving his hands, nodded and said: "Well, the ability to travel at night is one of the basic abilities that soldiers need to possess. The standard of general training needs to be able to march seventy miles a night."

His tone was not turbulent, but Yao Shu could hear the wind and frost in it.

Seventy miles, that is, 35 kilometers... The army is not like ordinary people. It advances rapidly at night. It is really not easy to maintain the formation and arrange the route in the field.

There seems to be no other way besides repeated training.

Yao Shu's voice softened, and he asked him softly, "Is the marching training hard?"

The man shook his head: "It's not hard."

Yao Shu refused to believe it: "Walk without eating or drinking all night, and can't even make a sound. Isn't it hard work? I'm afraid there are not many people in your barracks who persist like this, right?"

Lin Zhi paused his hand washing the dishes, and said hesitantly: "In the beginning of the training, indeed, many people complained to the sky, and many soldiers stopped halfway through walking..."

Maybe it's because of his good physical fitness, or maybe he's better at patience. In training, Lin Roe never stopped halfway. In many cases, his performance was better than that of soldiers who have been in the army for several years.

This is one of the reasons why the general can notice him.

Yao Shu sighed: "It's very understandable. Soldiers are also human beings, they will get tired and need to rest."

Lin Zhi frowned, obviously not agreeing with Yao Shu's opinion, he said seriously: "The purpose of training is not to torture, but to survive in wartime - if you have to rest because you are tired, and you have to eat because you are hungry, what else can you do?" What kind of training is it? When it comes time to fight, the foreign race will not give us time to stop."

What Yao Shu could imagine was less than one ten-thousandth of the cruelty on the real battlefield, and only those who crawled out of blood and swords could deeply realize the ruthlessness of war.

Generals never lie in training.

For unqualified soldiers, he would rather punish heavily, or even eliminate the army, in order to hope that all of his people can survive on the battlefield.

Yao Shu will not speculate on fields that he is not familiar with.

She nodded, expressing her understanding: "What you said makes sense. Ah Wing, you have worked hard."

Yao Shu's gentleness exists in the delicate, like a bubbling spring water, without too many waves, but enough to infiltrate people's hearts.

Unknowingly, Lin Zhi had already softened his expression.

"Defending the home and defending the country is what every soldier should do..."

He looked at Yao Shu with determination in his eyes.

Yao Shu took a step closer and said softly, "Yes, you have your own responsibilities, but you also need to take care of yourself...otherwise, someone will worry."

The expression on Lin Roe's face suddenly brightened, and even Yao Shu could easily feel his sudden change of mood: "Ashu, you mean, are you worried about me?"

Yao Shu did not avoid the man's bright eyes, but said to him with firm gentleness: "You are defending your home and country on the front line, you will be hurt if you are injured, and you will be cold if you bleed. It is me and the children who are protecting you with your life. What? How can we rest assured that we will kill you?"

If the scar on the man's forehead was a little more than two inches away, he would lose his right eye——

This is a military medal, but it is more of a proof of the danger of real swords and guns.

Maybe Yao Shu didn't feel much about Lin Zhi's going to the battlefield in the past.

But now he is standing in front of her alive, gentle and powerful, a person with flesh and blood and emotions.

Thinking of the danger and cruelty he experienced, Yao Shu couldn't restrain his heartache.

"About the bandits, do you still want to lead troops to eliminate them?" She asked with some concern.

Lin Rong nodded and comforted Yao Shu: "No matter how vicious the mountain bandits are, they are easier to deal with than foreigners. Besides, at the patrol mansion today, the second brother came up with many good ideas. The matter of suppressing the bandits will not be so dangerous."

That's what I said, but on the battlefield, how can I say it accurately?
Accidents will always happen inadvertently, and life is too fragile to resist when accidents happen.

She raised her head to look at Lin Zhi, her beautiful eyebrows were slightly frowned, and she said, "Swords have no eyes, you must be careful."

"Well," the man whispered, "Ash, I promise you."

The light was dim, but the man could see the slightest expression on Yao Shu's face.

Her worry, her distress, completely turned into fine and dense thorns, which were slightly but very strong in his heart.

Although Lin Rong enjoyed the feeling of being cared by Yao Shu, his selfish mood only lasted for a moment, and then he was overwhelmed by the emotion of not wanting her to worry.

He changed the subject: "What did you do today? Is there anything new?"

During these days of getting along, the two of them also cultivated a lot of tacit understanding. Yao Shu followed his will and let go of this topic.

She smiled and said: "Yu Zhi came over in the morning and saw that you were not there, but he was very reserved. I wish I didn't even enter the house."

Lin Zhi put the cleaned bowls on the stove shelf to dry, wiped his hands, and raised his head when he heard this: "Yu Zhi? Is he still used to living these days?"

The patrol mansion is busy, if Yao Shu didn't mention it, he would really have forgotten about this young scholar.

Yao Shu nodded: "Yu Zhi grew up pampered and didn't know anything except reading; but he has a bit of tenacity, he seems to be adapting well, and he played with Dabao and Erbao for a while today."

Lin Zhi was a little surprised: "Oh?"

Yao Shu handed him a dry cloth towel and asked him to wipe his hands. He said, "I played with Erbao for a long time. He was very patient. Later, he talked with Dabao, took a test on the child's knowledge, and asked Dabao if he wanted to go. Studying in academies in Jiangsu..."

Hearing this, the man frowned slightly: "Going to Jiangsu? Ah Zhi is still young, and even if he wants to go on a study tour, it will be a few years later."

Seeing that the father and son had the same thoughts, Yao Shu bent his lips and said, "You father and son are connected, even the words you say are exactly the same. Ah Zhi also means the same."

Perhaps the night was so quiet that even the most vigilant people couldn't help letting go of their guards.

After a busy day, attracted by such a peaceful smile, Lin Zhi moved closer, even softening his voice.

"What about you? Are you willing to let him go so far away?"

Yao Shu was naturally reluctant.

She turned her head away: "The child has his own ideas. As a mother, I support his decision."

Seeing this, Lin Rong only comforted him and said, "There are still a few years left, and it's not too late to talk then. Besides, there are many academies in the Great Yan Dynasty, so it's not like we can only go to Jiangsu."

Yao Shu gave a soft "hmm": "I wish Dabao could go to a nearby academy..."

In the end, he still said what was in his heart, Lin Roe could see Yao Shu's awkwardness.

He was amused in his heart, and asked her: "Just tell the child if it's okay?"

"Don't tell me," Yao Shu cast a reproachful look at Lin Rong, "If he really wants to go to Jingyang Academy, why bother to burden him?"

The man lowered his head, straightened her hair, and said softly, "It's up to you."

After the two cleaned up the kitchen, Yao Shu picked up the oil lamp and walked out first.

Lin Rong followed closely behind, standing in the direction of the wind, blocking her from the cool night wind with his body.
