Chapter 29 Chapter 29 Your aunt loves your uncle...

"Luckily, everyone was able to smooth things over at the time," Xu Yu Niang said. "Xuan Jieer found a husband for herself during her one-year-old ceremony. That sounds better than if her cousin stole her gift."

After all, the former is the fate between young children, and it can be talked about as an interesting story after dinner.

Su Guanyu looked embarrassed, and his mother kept saying that he had "robbed the gift of the newborn baby", as if he had done something unforgivable.

It would be fine for the mother to say it in front of Xuan Niang, after all, Xuan Niang was the person involved, and she was also his cousin and wife.

But Xuan Jinyu was his younger sister-in-law, and a girl who had been pampered in such a family. Would she really take her mother's joke to heart and think of it later, and not only dislike him but also dislike his younger brother?

The relationship between the young couple is not easy, so it is better not to create more discord between them.

Seeing that his sister-in-law didn't know how to respond, Su Guanyu decided to change the subject.

"Mother, I met my sister in Tongcheng. She is very worried about you." Su Guanyu said to Xu Yu Niang.

Xu Yu Niang gave birth to three children, the eldest son Su Guanyu, the youngest son Su Guanzhang, and the middle child was a daughter named Su Guanmian.

Su Guanmian's personality is as gentle as her name, but she is actually very tough inside. After all, she comes from a family of military generals and has been practicing martial arts since she was young.

After Xuan Jinyu married into the Su family, she spent quite a bit of time with her second sister, who was already married, during festivals and holidays, and they had a very good relationship.

Hearing this, she first glanced at her uncle Su Guanyu, and then at her mother-in-law Xu Yu Niang.

Xu Yu Niang was really attracted by her eldest son's words. She just held Xuan Jinyu's hand tightly and massaged several acupoints for her from time to time.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked at each other, tacitly dropped the topic, and looked at Su Guanyu together.

"My sister wanted to come with us, but I didn't let her." Su Guanyu continued, "I also had a quick meeting with my brother-in-law, nephews, and nieces. They were all doing well."

After Su Guanmian came of age, she was promised to Wang Yezhen, a military general under Su Sheng. The couple had two sons and one daughter, and lived a very happy life.

A year ago, Wang Yezhen was sent to garrison in Tongcheng, and Su Guanmian followed him with the children.

When the Su family got into trouble, the new emperor Shengyu did not think of Su Guanmian who was far away in Tongcheng. Liang Fangfang from the Ministry of Justice thought that the crime should not be committed against a married woman, and seeing that His Majesty did not mention it specifically, he did not take any further action.

Therefore, the affairs of the Su family did not affect Su Guanmian.

"It's a good thing you stopped her," Su Sheng said before Xu Yu Niang could say anything. "Since His Majesty doesn't miss her, she should just stay in Tongcheng with her son-in-law and children. Why would she rush to seek exile?"

"That's nonsense," he scolded.

Xu Yu Niang gently patted her obviously angry husband and said angrily, "Mian'er is just worried about me, her old mother. Why is your old father so angry? She is not worried about you."

"How could Mian'er not worry about me, her old father? Madam, you have to take back what you said." Su Sheng was anxious.

"Then tell me, since she is also worried about you as her old father, who were you angry for just now?" Xu Yu Niang asked him.

Although Su Sheng was a military commander, he was also a noble son brought up in an aristocratic family, and his manners were not vulgar. He was also gentle and rarely got angry. He was always able to chat and laugh with his grandchildren, and the children were not afraid of him.

However, his daughter Su Guanmian is the apple of his eye, and he tends to lose his temper whenever it comes to his daughter.

This is also one of the important reasons why he and his relative-in-law Xuan Zhao, one a military general and the other a civil official, can get along so well.

After being rebuked by Xu Yu Niang, Su Sheng quickly calmed down.

"Did they cause you any trouble?" After comforting her husband, Xu Yu Niang asked her eldest son with concern.

They just had a quick chat and she didn't have time to ask for details.

Su Guanyu shook his head. "They were ordered to hide in the army for quite some time. They have been on the battlefield with us, so they have some judgment in their hearts."

"When my second uncle disappeared, they arrested us, but without our active cooperation, they couldn't do anything to us."

Those imperial guards were well aware of this.

Moreover, they are different from the new emperor who is far away in Shengjing City, sitting on the throne and knows nothing about the cruelty of the battlefield. They have eyes and can certainly see that the Su family cannot collude with the enemy and commit treason.

The so-called treason against the Su family was nothing more than a charge imposed on them by the new emperor in order to take back their military power.

"Even though they were a little rude at first, after the imperial edict came and they didn't hear the news of the Su family being convicted, their attitude became respectful."

This time they were no longer escorting them, but following them to catch up with the exiled Su family.

"Look, son, compared to the imperial order, they may be more willing to get close to us now." Especially Captain Li Xiaoming.

The same is true for everyone in the Su family army, from generals to soldiers.

What they recognized was not the small tiger talisman, but the Su family, who had been brave and skilled in fighting for generations. And only the Su family members who were both wise and brave could gain their sincere respect and admiration.

The Su Family Army swore allegiance until death not to Dasheng, but to their Su Family, and to the unyielding spirit of their generations of Su Family in defending the country.

If the Su family wants a seat on the throne, with just one order, no one in the Su family army will have any objection.

However, at the beginning of the Dasheng Dynasty, the then-ruler of the Su family had a gentleman's agreement with Taizu. If the emperor was wise, the Su family would be willing to serve as ministers and maintain the stability of Dasheng for generations.

The premise of everything is that the emperor is wise.

But the new emperor's reputation was not legitimate, and the previous emperor had not told him anything. He knew nothing and only wanted to gain military power, but he did not know that the tiger talisman was all he could get.

I don’t know when he will understand that the Su family army will never obey his orders.

As he was speaking, the aroma of rice mixed with the fragrance of fish came over. Upon careful inspection, he found that there were several kinds of fish fragrance.

The children stopped playing and ran briskly towards the source of the fragrance.

"It smells so good!" Mu Ge stared at the browned fish still turning in the pot and kept swallowing his saliva.

"Uncle, you can cook." Six-year-old Su Yuge stared at Su Guanzhang, the chef, in surprise and said in a loud voice.

This sentence attracted everyone's attention.

Xuan Jinyu also stood up curiously, walked around a few big trees, and saw Su Guanzhang flipping the spatula.

The others couldn't sit still anymore and turned around to look. Soon, a crowd gathered around Su Guanyu.

Even Chen Yang, Wang Hu and Li Xiaoming brought their men to watch.

Su Guanzhang: “…”

"Aren't you going to eat?" he asked Chen Yang.

Chen Yang just smiled and said, "No rush." ​​The most important thing is to watch the fun.

Wang Hu's worries were gone, and he nodded without saying anything after hearing this.

These past few days I've been walking along the narrow paths in the wild mountains, slowly but surely it's so boring. It's so rare to see something so extraordinary, so why not rush over to see the excitement?

The young master of the Su family! That young general who could pacify the battlefield with his martial arts skills, and the junior official of the Dali Temple who could redress injustices with his literary skills, now wields a spatula with considerable skill.

Su Guanzhang's three brothers stared at their younger brother in surprise for a while, then looked at each other, turned their heads and smiled in tacit understanding.

Chang Meiyan felt embarrassed for her brother-in-law when she saw so many people coming to watch him have fun.

But she was the daughter of a general after all, and she was very generous. The thought of sorry only flashed through her mind.

"Fry until both sides are crispy and fragrant. Now, pour in boiling water." She continued to instruct.

Su Guanzhang held the spatula in one hand and poured the prepared boiling water with the other.

With the sound of "sizzling", the boiling water in the pot rolled and soon turned into a thick white color, which made people's mouths water just by looking at it.

"Cover the pot and simmer for half a quarter of an hour." Chang Meiyan continued.

Su Guanzhang then put the lid on the pot.

After reading this, who still doesn’t understand?

It was clearly the wife of the third young master of the Su family who was instructing the young master on how to cook!

Second Aunt Su only felt that this step was very familiar. Before she could remember it, Su Guanwen could no longer restrain himself and burst into laughter.

He patted Su Guanzhang's shoulder hard, making a "pa pa pa" sound.

"Fifth brother, these dishes are the recipes that my mother and mother-in-law found for your third sister-in-law when she was pregnant with twins. They were so distressed for her. You should learn how to make them and cook them for your fifth sister-in-law."

Su Guanzhang, who was slapped hard by him, didn't even frown, but just brushed away his third brother's hand with disgust.

However, Xuan Jinyu, seeing that Su Guanwen was still smiling, punched Su Guanzhang in the chest a few more times and frowned.

She didn't bully Su Guanzhang, that stinky man, but she let the three of them bully him?

This stinky man is really something. Before she could pinch him, he grabbed her hand in advance to stop her from pinching him. How come he gave in after his third brother slapped and hit her?

snort!

Xuan Jinyu was still unhappy.

There were too many people around, so she hid her face behind a thick tree that took three people to hug. No one could see her expression unless they paid special attention.

"Aunt, are you unhappy?" Tong Jieer saw the hem of her aunt's skirt, turned around, found her, looked up and saw her pouting mouth, so she asked.

Xuan Jinyu turned to look at Tong Jie'er, but before she could say anything, she saw from the corner of her eye that Su Guanwen punched Su Guanzhang again.

She paused.

How come this man doesn't know how to hide?

At this moment, attracted by Tong Jie'er's words, everyone's eyes looked over the big tree and towards Xuan Jinyu.

Xuan Jinyu frowned and quickly looked away.

Before others could see clearly, Su Guanzhang had already noticed where her gaze was just now, and hurriedly brushed away his third brother's hand that was still hitting his chest.

Su Guanwen was still carefree and didn't realize that his sister-in-law was angry.

But Chang Meiyan had already realized it and hurriedly pulled her husband away from her brother-in-law.

"Your aunt loves your uncle!" Before Xuan Jinyu could answer Tong Jie'er's words, Second Aunt Su spoke with a smile.

Being watched and laughed at by so many people, most of whom were close family members.

Xuan Jinyu's face suddenly turned red, and she stammered, "Who feels sorry for him?" Then she turned her head and faced the thick tree trunk.

Second Aunt Su laughed heartily and slapped her son, "Jinyu, don't be upset. Second Aunt will vent your anger for you."

Her palm strike came without warning and was so heavy that Su Guanwen couldn't help but hiss.

He is not like his fifth brother who has facial paralysis. No matter how much pain he is in, his eyebrows won't move. He will still scream if he is in pain.
