Chapter 32 @032
"Mom, my grandfather rarely came to the palace before, so he told me to take the princess with me when I was studying martial arts in the future."
After breakfast, Jing Yi and Xiao Ting came to pay tribute to Liu. The general's mansion is that as long as the young man who has not got married, he will accompany his mother to have dinner at home. If he marrys a wife, the couple can have a small meal. The whole family can gather together every once in a while.
After Jing Yi finished speaking, Xiao Ting smiled at Liu embarrassedly.
"It should be, the Duke and the Duke's wife are both older, and the princess should visit them frequently." Liu was clear about the grudge between the Xu family and the royal family. Xu Guang wanted to see more of his granddaughter. Even if his daughter-in-law was not a princess, her mother-in-law would not stop him.
"I want to go too." Brother Chun looked at his new sister-in-law expectantly.
Xiao Ting didn't want to take his younger brother, but pretended to be thinking about Brother Chun, bent down and touched Brother Chun'er's head: "Brother Chun still wants to study. When you have a holiday one day, my third sister-in-law will take you there."
Chun Ge'er pouted in disappointment.
Liu was very pleased. Brother Chun was still young and it was the time to discipline him. If his daughter-in-law blindly indulges indulges indulges indulges in love, it would be bad. He pulled his younger son back, and Liu told his third son seriously: "Tingsheng studied hard, don't let down the high expectations of the Duke of the country for you."
Jing Yi nodded: "Don't worry, Mother, I understand."
After saying that, he looked at Xiao Ting, and the couple turned around and left. The carriage at the door had been parked. Xiao Ting coughed gently. Jing Yi caught a glimpse of his raised little hand, smiled bitterly, and looked calm on his face. He walked over to hold Xiao Ting's hand and helped him onto the carriage.
After sitting down, I hadn't waited for Jing Yi for a long time. Xiao Ting opened the curtain in confusion and saw Jing Yi turning over on his horse.
"You don't take the car?" Xiao Ting gritted his teeth and asked, does this woman not want to be in the same car as him?
Jing Yi had already sat down and nodded at him, "Go away?"
She went to learn martial arts, but her grandfather saw her disciples riding in a carriage and acting like a noble young man. The old man was afraid that he would not be happy.
Xiao Ting glanced at the guards in front of the general's mansion, put down the curtains in anger, and ignored Jing Yi.
Jing Yi ordered the coachman to move forward.
The couple set out late. They arrived at the Xu Mansion and walked to the open space where the three brick and tile houses were located. From a distance, they saw Chen Gongjin, Hu Wu and Tan Shitong standing there. One of them was holding a long wooden gun in their hands, and they didn't move at all. Under the eaves, Xu Guang was lying comfortably on a recliner with a straw hat covering his face. I don't know if it was a real or a fake sleep.
Jing Yi suddenly had a bad premonition and shook his eyes with Xiao Ting. The two of them quickly rushed over.
"Get up quickly, Jing Yiting is born." Gao had been looking forward to the couple, and finally came. Gao hurried to pull her husband.
Xu Guang continued to lie down, and when the footsteps came to him, he slowly moved away from his straw hat and squinted his eyes to the new couple.
Jing Yi lowered his head and admitted his mistake: "I'm late for the disciple, please punish me."
Xiao Ting was scolded by his strict father at home. When he saw Xu Guang's appearance, he knew that the old man was going to get angry. He was worried that Jing Yi would suffer, so he hurriedly took the mistake on himself. "Grandpa, I'm getting up late, and I insisted on the prince-consort waiting for me. Do you forgive her once?"
Xu Guang looked at his granddaughter and then winked at his wife.
Having been a couple for most of her life, Gao knew her husband best and knew that this person was teaching his disciples. The soldiers of the imperial guards didn't like to talk too much. They hurriedly held Xiao Ting's hand and took the person in: "They are men who learn martial arts, let's go to the house to talk." Her granddaughter had just gotten married, and she wanted to ask her granddaughter if she was used to living in the general's house.
Xiao Ting was not that easy to fool, and he refused to leave, staring at Xu Guang.
"Go over there and squat for half an hour." Xu Guang didn't look at anyone, pointed the place to his grandson-in-law, and put the straw hat on his face again.
Jing Yi was about to pass without saying a word.
Xiao Ting almost jumped up as if he was struck by lightning, "Grandpa, you..."
"Princess, I'm late. I should have been punished. You go and accompany my grandmother." Jing Yi turned around and interrupted him.
She was kind to help her not appreciate it. Xiao Ting glared at her fiercely, then glared at Xu Guang, and rushed into the house angrily.
Jing Yi walked to Chen Gongjin's side, and the three of them raised their long guns, and she posed and squatted.
Chen Gongjin and the other two were not feeling well. They were so heavy and long. The gun was held up all by the arm. According to the old man, when they got home, they could mobilize all their strength to support the long gun. However, when they were just starting out, they had not yet understood the mysterious skills and could only make their arms suffer.
Therefore, Chen Gongjin and the other two were not as good as Jing Yi. Ten-year-old Han Shitong was better, Chen Gongjin and Hu Wu had another kind of pain... I envy the third son of the Xiao family next to him for marrying a beautiful wife who was both beautiful and heartbroken.
As soon as he entered the house, Xiao Ting approached the window, hid himself, and looked at Jing Yi secretly. Jing Yi was foolishly allowed the old man to punish him, but also felt sorry for him. He thought that he had squatted at the beginning, and he almost ruined his legs for half an hour, not to mention half an hour.
"Stop looking, your grandfather is not punishing him, but to see how Tingsheng's basic skills are." Gao grabbed his granddaughter's wrist and explained with a smile while going to the inner room, "Where can a man learn martial arts, he can't suffer any pain at all. Jing Yi, don't worry, after your grandfather's training, he will teach for ten days and half a month, and keep it for Tingsheng to be reborn."
Reborn...
Xiao Ting's legs were weak.
"Come on, let's talk to each other." Gao said with a smile.
Xiao Ting looked up and faced the elder's too bright smile, and he felt a little nervous.
"Is Tingsheng good to you?" Gao sat down, held his granddaughter's little hand and said in a whispering tone.
Of course, Xiao Ting nodded, lowered his head and pretended to be shy, "It's pretty good, father-in-law and mother-in-law like me too."
Gao smiled with satisfaction, and carefully asked about some daily life, and finally asked the most critical one: "At night, is Tingsheng still considerate to you?"
When a girl gets married, when she returns, the elders at home will definitely ask this. It is not that she is idle or is unreasonable and insists on inquiries about the couple's house, but whether her son-in-law can do it. Just like the man's family has prepared a pride and cares about whether his wife is innocent. In the past, some princesses would arrange for female officials to serve the prince-consort for one night before the wedding, and this is the case. If the prince-consort does not work, the princess doesn't have to marry.
Xiao Ting used to tell his friends about this, but he clearly had no experience. He could still brag the bull to the sky without changing his face. But now when talking to a woman, Xiao Ting was both frustrated and had to bear it. He just nodded and whispered: "Yes, it's pretty good."
With such a vague answer, looking at the granddaughter with a red face, Gao patted his granddaughter helplessly and said, "Okay, I see you embarrassed, grandma asked the last one." After that, he leaned into his granddaughter's ear and whispered.
Xiao Ting turned his eyes, pretended to turn his head to the side, and then stretched out a finger.
"Fourth of an hour?" Gao asked in surprise. It was okay to turn back for a quarter of an hour for the first time, but...
Gao didn't know what the man from another family was, but the old man was very excited when he was young, but now he was in high spirits for more than a quarter of an hour.
The shock in her words deeply hurt Xiao Ting, and she defended without thinking: "No, it's an hour."
Gao finally smiled. Thinking of his grandson-in-law's cold and solemn look, but it was so long at night that he must be very satisfied with the bride.
Xiao Ting didn't want to talk to Gao anymore, so he ran to the window to peek.
Jing Yi was on Xiao Yu as early as the first day of her decision to practice martial arts. Xiao Jian urged her to squat down and stance, with her legs level with her ground, her hands clenched her fists around her waist, her waist and back were straightened, and she looked ahead. Before today, she could hold on for two quarters of hours, but those two quarters of hours were definitely not easy.
The legs were shaking, trembling layer by layer, like waves surging, trying to defeat the owner of the legs from inside.
The sun gradually rose, and sweat rolled down from her forehead and slid to her chin. As soon as she reached the bottom, another drop fell. Tan Shitong next to her was young, and she ended her hard training first. She stretched her arms and legs far away and slowly calmed down. Chen Gongjin and Hu Wu's arms holding guns were trembling, and their clothes were already wet.
Xiao Ting only stared at Jing Yi. When Jing Yi persisted for almost two quarters of an hour, Xiao Ting's eyes had already changed.
The first time he admired a woman.
When Jing Yi threatened to practice martial arts, he also admired her ambition, but no one could speak. At that time, his admiration was just a moment of emotion. He had seen Jing Yi running around the lake and seeing Jing Yi lifting up and down steadily with his hands holding a thirty-pound stone lock. Today, he witnessed Jing Yi squatting for so long. Xiao Ting's admiration for her was like a narrow stream, which suddenly turned into a vast ocean.
He still felt distressed, but he would not dissuade him recklessly. Now he would persuade him to plead with mercy, that was not concern, but burden. Jing Yi really wanted to learn kung fu and really wanted to inherit the Xu family's shooting skills. He really liked her, so he should watch from afar and not cause trouble for her.
But as he looked, Xiao Ting's eyes unknowingly emptyed.
The figures of Jing Yi and the other two disappeared. He saw his former self, the young master who could only try his best to avoid his father and go out to idle outside. He saw the third son of the Xiao family who made a mistake and ran to his grandmother to beg his grandmother to plead for him. He saw the hole. After the night of the room, he hesitated with the scissors for a while, and finally let his sweetheart snatch the scissors and the bloody coward "Mr. Prince Consort".
Without ambition, ability, and courage, an ordinary woman may look at him differently because of his skin and his family background. But how could Jingyi, the fourth princess who inherited the blood of the Xu family and had a higher heart than the sky, look down on him?
Xiao Ting's shoulders drooped.
He always blamed Jing Yi for being cold and ruthless, but never thought that he had no strengths worthy of others' preferences.
Gao had just handed the menu to the maid, and when he came back, he saw his granddaughter sitting there with a sad look, he was surprised, "Jing Yi, what are you thinking?"
Xiao Ting was full of thoughts and no one could say anything. Gao's concerned face made him feel close. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but sigh in a low voice: "Grandma, she practices so seriously. She will definitely be the same as her grandfather in the future. I, I can't do anything. Will she not like me anymore?"
Recognizing the gap between the two, Xiao Ting suddenly felt that he might not have won Jing Yi's heart in his life.
Gao had long known how much his granddaughter liked the prince-consort. He heard that his granddaughter was worried about his children's love again, but for the first time she stopped treating his granddaughter as a child, but walked over, held the girl's shoulder and squeezed it gently, and said kindly: "Then Jingyi, tell me, what are the strengths of grandma? Is your grandpa worthy of your grandpa's wholeheartedness to me?"
Xiao Ting raised his head in confusion. Everyone knew that a slew of Duke Guardian Xu Guang could break thousands of troops with a slew of cloud spear, but there were no special rumors outside that the Duke Guardian Gao's wife. However, Jing Yi and his daughter were both rare beauties. Looking at Gao again, although they were nearly fifty years old, they could still tell the beauty of their youth on their faces.
Beautiful?
Men like beauty, but now his face is Jing Yi, so how can Jing Yi have a great heart?
When Gao saw his granddaughter looking at her face, he guessed what the little girl was thinking. He couldn't help but laugh and touched his face and sighed: "Maybe your grandfather was hooked by my face at the beginning, but no matter how beautiful a person is, he will be married to him for a year or two years. He is tired of seeing his face alone."
Xiao Ting was stunned. What else was there except for his face?
As if you could see the problem in your granddaughter's head, Gao smiled and pointed the little girl's heart, "As long as you keep Tingsheng in your heart, feel sorry for him and considerate him, even if Tingsheng doesn't say it, he will also benefit from it. It gradually becomes a habit and can no longer live without you."
There are two kinds of men in the world. Some meet good girls who like to suit their hearts and live only by staying there, and no longer even look at the beautiful women outside. But some eat in the bowl and look at the pot, thinking about hushing and hushing each other all day long, enjoying the blessing of being the same.
Gao felt that his grandson-in-law was a serious person at first glance, so as long as his granddaughter treats him sincerely, the couple will definitely live a loving and happy life.
Xiao Ting lowered his eyes, thinking.
"Third brother!"
A panic sound suddenly came from the yard. Xiao Ting was stunned and realized who the "third brother" was calling. His face changed drastically. He turned around and rushed outside. He rushed to the front of the main hall. When he saw Jing Yi lying on the ground, Chen Gongjin and Hu Wu rushed to her one after another, just about to help her.
"stop!"
Xiao Ting was furious and shouted loudly as he ran out.
That is his woman, and no one can touch except him!hf();
