Upon hearing this, Xu Gao's eyes lit up, and Xu Bai nodded even more, saying in a mature and sophisticated manner, "To know one's mistakes and correct them is a great virtue. Brother-in-law, I respect you as a true man."

Upon hearing this, the servants in the room couldn't help but laugh. Xu Gao gently patted Xu Bai's head, whose hair hadn't grown out yet, and said with a smile, "Seventh Brother, where did you learn to say that? You can't say things like that in the future, or people will laugh at you."

Xu Bai retorted, "Big sister, that's what we all say in Hexi. I love going to Yanmen Pass the most. The brothers that Brother Wei leads are all tough and resolute men. Being with them makes me feel like I'm living a carefree life. That's how a man should live."

Upon hearing Xu Bai's words, Cheng Kai couldn't help but think that he should also go to the Northwest to gain experience. He couldn't be a bodyguard forever. While he was still young, he should go and gain experience. If he could achieve military merit, not only could he secure a good future for his wife and children, but he could also prove his worth. The Qingping Earl's Mansion should be restored to its former glory.

This idea was like a weed sprouting. Cheng Kai wanted to go to the Yongning Marquis's residence as soon as possible to discuss it with the Marquis and his son. He needed someone to help him analyze how feasible this matter was. Cheng Kai knew very well that even he, or even his father, the reclusive Taoist priest, Lord Qingping, couldn't analyze it clearly.

Cheng Kai quickly arranged for a carriage to be prepared, and the group left the Earl's mansion through the side gate at the back. By the time Lady Qingping received the news, Cheng Kai had already led the carriage halfway there.

Xu Gao wanted Xu Bai to sit in the carriage with him, but Xu Bai insisted that Cheng Kai hold him while he sat on the horse. Xu Gao had no choice but to give up and watch as Cheng Kai calmly carried Xu Bai on horseback, walking beside the carriage.

Xu Gao's personal nanny said to him, "Our seventh young master and our son-in-law get along quite well."

Xu Gao said, "Children raised by people like my third uncle and aunt are no ordinary children."

Upon hearing this, the old woman seemed to realize something and remained silent. After a while, she whispered to Xu Gao, "When you go back this time, please ask the old lady to help you find a good doctor to take a look at you, so you can take good care of yourself and get pregnant soon."

Xu Gao listened to these words but said nothing, only sighed softly.
