Chapter 78 War

"Aye, this is the third brother-in-law Zhao Gui, and this is the fourth brother-in-law Zhou Xin, all of us from our hometown." Luo Cheng saw that his brother-in-law had a little restrained stand on the side and hurriedly called them to come forward.

The father looked at the two sons-in-law, then stretched out his big palm like a palm fan and slapped the two sons-in-law's shoulders a few times.

"Well, they are all pretty good. They have a strong bones and are tall."

"Aye!"

The two of them quickly stepped forward and knelt down.

"Get up, although you got married a little haste, I was not at home either. But since this matter was agreed by your mother-in-law, even if it was said by the media that the parents' orders were legal. I, Old Man Luo, gave birth to five daughters and married two before. One is the standard for choosing a son-in-law. One must be healthy, the other must be diligent, and the other must be able to love your wife and son."

"Yes, yes." Both of them nodded repeatedly, standing there honestly. When suppressing the bandits, the desperate courage was completely invisible.

"Aye, when I first married Sanniang, my family was poor, so I only took out five dou of grain as a bride. Fortunately, Sanniang didn't dislike my family's poverty and was willing to marry him. When I got there, I took care of my family and served my mother, which was very virtuous. After Goro came back last time, he specially sent ten coins of money to give Sanniang the dowry."

"Xiao Wu did this right." Old Man Luo nodded. Although the Luo family was still not rich, he did not want to treat his daughter unfairly.

"Aye, listen to me. My family did have that kind of conditions before. Now I am with Wulang as a gang. Last time, I participated in the suppression of bandits and quell the rebellion with Xiaowu. I made some contributions and received a lot of rewards. There are thirty stakes of money and thirty pieces of silk, and thirty acres of land. I would like to take out thirty stakes and thirty pieces of silk as a gambler for Sanniang."

"Aye, I am also willing to take out thirty silos and thirty pieces of silk to serve as Si Niang's wedding." Seeing this, Zhou Xin quickly expressed his opinion.

Dad Luo laughed.

"You really want to bear it?"

"There is nothing to be reluctant to let go, this is what it should be."

Dad Luo put away his smile and looked at his two sons-in-law with admiration. After he came back, he heard his wife say that the family had to marry her two daughters out of trouble, just for the sake of the bucket of grain, and he got angry after hearing this.

Later, I heard that although the two sons-in-law were poor, they were pretty good. After marriage, they slowly calmed down. After hearing that Luo Wu came back, a sister gave him ten dowry and praised the son very much.

Now seeing his two sons-in-law actually took out all the thirty stakes of money and silk for a wedding ceremony. To be honest, he was really surprised and happy.

His happiness is not because of the money. He is not a greedy person. Money is dead, so it's enough. What he is happy about is the attitude expressed by these two sons-in-law.

"Sanniang and Siniang really chose the right husband. I have accepted this intention, but I can't accept the money. Man said that Xiaowu and Xiaoliu are promising now, and the family conditions are better. Even if there is no such conditions, I can't accept so much for you. I am marrying my daughter, not selling my daughter."

"Aye, this is our intention."

"Aye, why not just take them ten stale coins and silk each, and then our family will hold a grand formal wedding for the third and fourth sisters. During the wedding, the money and silk will be sent to the two families as dowry. How about it?" Luo Cheng suggested.

In this way, there is both face and inner self.

"Yes, that's OK." Dad Luo thought about it and felt that his fifth son had a good idea.

Seeing that his father was in a good mood, the fourth brother took the opportunity to say, "Dad, I want to marry the third daughter of Liu Butcher Liu in Kaoshan Village."

"But Liu's daughter?" The father's face sank, "No."

“Why?”

"Your father, I have fought with Butcher Liu before. I am an enemy. You can't marry his daughter."

Luo Laosi was amused and laughed at this reason, "Which year has this happened to Chen Zhimao, do you still remember it?"

"Anyway, this matter is unconventional. If you want to get married, your mother and I will find a good woman for you."

·······

Luo Cheng and his friends brought back a lot of money and silk, and brought back a lot of grain, meat, vegetables, etc. from the county.

The atmosphere at home was even higher and happy. Du Fuwei's mother's illness was cured, so she brought Du Xiaomei to help cut mutton. She sent her to the Luo family these days. Although the Luo family was good, she felt a little disgusted. Now Du Fuwei bought two sheep and came back, and the meal was equivalent to Du Fuwei's invitation. So the two women and women didn't feel a little higher when they cut vegetables.

I feel proud.

A sheep has been chopped into large pieces in the county town. Now the women have changed their knives and cut them into pieces, and slaughtered and cut them together with the chicken, duck, fish and meat bought from the county. It’s very lively.

While Luo's mother was busy directing, she did not forget to criticize Luo Cheng and the others for being too ruthless.

"It's not something I've been living. If you have money, you're generous. I don't know how much money you should spend on buying so many vegetables."

"Sister-in-law, the children are rewarded and happy, so you can let them do this time." Du's mother said with a smile.

Women were busy cutting vegetables and washing vegetables, while men were sitting in the yard chatting.

Old Man Luo said that he and his boss were fighting for ordnance in Zhuo County. "I really need to prepare for a war. This time it will definitely be a big war. You don't know how many people in Zhuo County are building ordnances. The various types of weapons built are piled up like mountains, and they are filled with one warehouse after another......"

"We will continue to build next year. It is said that we must prepare one million military-purpose weapons." said the dull boss Luo Jizu.

"Arms for one million troops? How many troops can be used to fight Goguryeo?" Lao Si shouted. He followed the bandit suppression this time and fought several battles, but each time it was either twenty or thirty or hundreds of people. In his eyes, the time when the soldiers of six hundred county brigade surrounded Qingyang Villa was already a huge war.

One million people? He couldn't imagine how many people would be there. How to fight this battle? How could there be such a big battlefield? There is no way to put so many people in the shop.

"Your third brother came back in Denglai. He built ships there. It is said that he built hundreds of warships and recruited thousands of shipmen from Jianghuai to train there. When the battle begins, the court will send 100,000 naval troops across the sea to go to Goguryeo."

"A cross-sea expedition?"

A group of people were marveling there.

Only Luo Cheng sat there quietly. He knew that these legends were true. Now it was the autumn of Daye's fifth year, and the Eastern Expedition was about to begin in the seventh year of Daye. At that time, he really sent millions of troops, and he also advanced by land and water.

"It's better for you to be a constable. If you become a constable, you don't have to go to war." said Dad Luo.

"Dad, what's wrong with fighting? You can make contributions. This time we will wipe out a group of small rebels, and they all have received so many rewards. If we can participate in the war and destroy Goguryeo, how much reward will we get? Maybe we will be able to become a prestigious person at that time."

Old Man Luo slapped Lao Si directly in the face, "Shut up! When fighting, war will kill people. You are young and you have not even married a wife or have children. You just want to fight. You are confused!"
