Gu Lei walked in and thought for a while before pushing Gu Ping with his hand, "Go and tell your father about your joining the cavalry."

"Brother, I'm afraid dad will scold me."

"It's okay, I'm here."

Gu Lei patted him on the shoulder.

Gu Ping bit his lip and nodded. He entered the room and saw Grandpa Gu and his father talking. His father lowered his eyebrows and listened to the instructions.

"You're back, is everything going well?"

"It's not bad. It's going smoothly. I'm doing my job as well. My second uncle took a lot of trouble."

"It should."

"Second uncle, your brother-in-law didn't clean it up once. It's not appropriate to keep cleaning up the mess like this. His house won't get some blood. It needs to be beaten no matter what."

Gu Lei naturally faces his own family. Even if his second uncle is thoughtful, it is not a big mistake. Today I went to see his father and third uncle's shop. They are very well behaved and have no greed. They are well organized and profitable. They can do it in just one year.

I really put my heart into this, and my dissatisfaction disappeared.

"I went, I scraped together the eight thousand taels, and gave me a few antiques. I showed them to my father and sent them to the warehouse. Leizi, I'm sorry. I really didn't know your second aunt was so courageous.

It was just a small amount of money, one or two thousand. I thought she was doing it for her daughter, so I just turned a blind eye and filled it in. Who knew she..."

Uncle Gu also regretted it. He should not have allowed his wife to act recklessly in the first place.

"Forget it, let's not mention it. Your brother-in-law, keep an eye on it. A dog can't change its habit of eating shit."

"Next time, just let him go. He deserves his life. I'm not filling in the hole."

Uncle Gu's expression was so disgusted that he even felt disgusted with his wife and regretted marrying her.

"Dad, my eldest brother is begging for mercy for me today. Let me go and let Sister Yu'er see me tomorrow. If I can pass the test, I will be allowed to go to the cavalry to learn my skills."

After Gu Ping and the others finished speaking, they stood up and took a step forward to report.

"Just you, go to the cavalry. Are you kidding? You don't think you can go to the battlefield and fight for military glory after learning some boxing and kicking skills. You are just daydreaming. You can just kill someone."

Uncle Gu's words are a bit harsh, which is also true.

Gu Ping's face turned red from being scolded, and he couldn't speak. He stood there with his head lowered and did not dare to reply. He lowered his head and felt a little frustrated.

"Second uncle, don't say that, Gu Ping is very hardworking."

Gu Lei had to come out to smooth things over.

"Don't worry about it. Just teach him how to do common service. You also want to go to the battlefield to gain military merit. Military merit is so easy to earn. I have gone there a long time ago. He is not as good as you. Dad has seen it before, so it's not that he won't give it."

Chance, no chance."

It's not that Uncle Gu doesn't care about his children. Military generals are different from civil servants. Military generals pay attention to real skills. If you can't do it, you can't do it. If you go to the battlefield and fight with real swords and guns, you will risk your life.

"It doesn't hinder me to learn my skills. If nothing else, I have the opportunity to be a guard or something."

Gu Lei pushed his second uncle and winked at him.

"If you want to learn, you have to be willing to endure hardships and have a good look. Your sister Yu'er is extremely talented and is a good player in the capital. It's for the sake of the Gu family that she can teach you. Don't be embarrassed. Listen to your elder brother when you have something to do.

Don’t get into trouble.”

Uncle Gu pursed his lips, glanced at his son, and finally agreed.

"Yes, I have written it down."

Gu Ping raised his head excitedly, nodding like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Come to the study tomorrow. I have a village and shop here. You can take it and follow your brother's example."

It is not easy to think about this child. My wife has been suppressing her so much that I have never had a chance. The opportunities in the clan have also been blocked by my daughter-in-law. Now it is time to teach the child, and it looks like he is getting older.

"yes."

"You go ahead."

Uncle Gu then waved his hand.

"Second uncle, Brother Ping is quite sensible. Can you teach me more?"

"I know your second aunt is suppressing him, but don't forget that he is a commoner. He has a low status and does not have very good talents. He must learn to be steady, responsible and cautious. The family cannot bear this grievance.

, outsiders can't be more compassionate than your second aunt when you go out."

Uncle Gu has his own ideas, and his wife's suppression may not be a whetstone for his son.

Gu Lei blinked and was speechless.

“A knife cannot be sharpened if it is not sharpened, and a jade cannot be made into a useful tool if it is not polished.”

Grandpa Gu would like to remind you that it is not a bad thing to suppress boys. It is good to learn to be cautious and low-key and restrain your sharpness when going out.

"I understand, I will take good care of Brother Ping."

"Okay, uncle, I believe you. I took a few antiques from his house to pay off the debt. I thought they were okay, so I didn't sell them. I'll keep them for you. I'll replenish the rest of the money for you later."

"Thank you, second uncle. Let's keep it for brother Xing. My third aunt will lose the most in dowry."

"There's no rush. Brother Xin is still young. We'll deal with him slowly later. Our children won't be able to offend him."

Uncle Gu said with a smile.

The uncle and nephew exchanged a few words before Gu Lei left and went back to wash up and rest.

Tomorrow I have to go to the Night King to report and write a letter, which also means to learn the affairs of the court up close. This is the face the Night King gives to Grandpa Gu. Only Gu Lei can go up to him, and no one else can go.

Gu Lei's father has some friendship with the Night King, and this reputation is also for the sake of Grandpa Gu and his son. Naturally, it is given to the eldest son and eldest grandson. It is good that others cannot take advantage of it.

He also asked the Night King to guide Gu Lei, and asked him to behave in a low-key manner, saying that he would still use the Gu family in the future. The Gu family was not in ruins, but they had lost their property, and their troops were still there.

The next afternoon, Gu Lei took Gu Ping to Li's house.

"Yu'er, I bought something for you, come and take a look."

"What did you buy for me? Brother Ping, we will go to the racecourse later."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, sister Yu'er."

Gu Ping respectfully greeted the elders of the Li family one by one.

"I've had someone make wrist braces and weights for you. This one is more convenient, with buckles, so it's easy to take off and put on."

Gu Lei went to build it in advance, and it was built according to Li Yu's weight and size, and then he got it back.

"Let me see."

Li Yu opened the box and saw a pair of iron wrist guards, which were very heavy and easy to buckle. There were also two pairs of arm rings stuck on the arms to increase the weight. Archery requires arm strength.

There are also sandbags buckled on the thighs and calves to increase jumping ability.

There is also a pair of sandbag clothes filled with iron sand, and a vest worn on the body to increase the weight. If you practice all year round, you will be as light as a swallow after taking off the weight, and your speed will more than double.

"My vest is no longer working. I can't feel it anymore when I put it on. You are so considerate."

Li Yu happily put it on and gave it a try. She felt strong enough to weigh the scales, so practice would be effective.

"I just thought that those of yours were getting old, so I added some weight to them appropriately."

"Let's go to the school grounds and let me see what you are capable of."

Li Yu patted Gu Ping's shoulder.

"Um."

Several people went to the school grounds.

Gu Ping's archery, horse riding, archery, swordsmanship, boxing, and kicks are all basic skills he has learned since elementary school, and they are not much different.

"Come on, you are young and not as strong as your brothers. I will give you two moves. If you take three of my moves, I will let you join the cavalry to learn your skills."

Gu Ping took a deep breath, sat on the horse, held the reins tightly, and charged forward as soon as he pinched the horse's belly.

Li Yu wears weights all over her body. She also wears weights when training on horseback and archery. She has been practicing for almost ten years. Otherwise, how could she be better than her brothers? She relies not only on talent but also on perseverance and diligence.

The two competed with each other with sticks. Gu Ping was the younger one. In the close combat, he only felt the huge force coming and almost lost the stick in his hand.
