Chapter 577: Xie Yuchuan's Hero List
"He was impatient with rote learning in the classroom, so while the soldier was recuperating at the mansion, he would visit him from time to time to ask him questions. The soldier was staying at the mansion and also serving in the Xie family army, so when he asked questions, the soldier would naturally tell him everything he knew. After a few visits, he learned a lot."
"After that, the family finally came to their senses. Sixth Brother's teaching methods had to change. They changed their minds and hired a civil and martial arts instructor to teach both. He was often taught by the elder brothers in the family."
Talking about the past, Mrs. Xie couldn't help but smile gently, and took over Xie Zhen's words and said with a smile:
"At that time, Yuchuan was no easy child. He pestered the elders at home to learn, not only that, he also publicly ranked them, categorized them and ranked them, and secretly encouraged them to show their true abilities to teach him."
Several laughs were heard.
Even Zhang Dayi's curiosity was piqued. He stroked his beard and smiled faintly, "May I ask, Madam, will General Xie's trick work?"
"It works!" Old Madam Xie laughed repeatedly. "That kid, sometimes I really don't know what he's thinking. At first, they thought this move was just childish fun, but when they saw he was interested, they agreed to just play him off. But he saw through it, and he kept imitating me while he kept saying who else's move was better."
Zhang Dayi couldn't help but laugh, "Have you generals been fooled?"
Old Madam Xie smiled and shrugged her shoulders. "At first, I didn't understand his way, but I couldn't stand him ranking them when he went out of the mansion, shouting everywhere, saying who taught what kung fu today, which uncle or brother in the family was worthy of the title, and which was just an embroidered pillow, and even he couldn't teach him, and so on. Outsiders laughed at him at first, but later they found that he was not talking nonsense at such a young age, but on the contrary, he had substance. The circle in the capital is full of military commanders from various families, and the boys in the mansion also have to socialize when they go out. How could they bear the stimulation of outsiders holding on to Yuchuan's hero list, so they turned around and showed off their magical powers when they came back.
Mrs. Zhou, the eldest wife next to Mrs. Xie, also recalled this incident from the past year and couldn't help laughing. "That period really exhausted Yuchuan. These uncles and brothers lectured him so much. Even if he knew he was wrong, he wouldn't tolerate it. They scolded him. Which of the Xie family members dared to admit defeat when studying? How could they give up? They trained hard in the hottest days of summer and the coldest days of winter."
“Hahahahahaha——”
Everyone laughed.
After hearing this, Zhang Dayi couldn't stop smiling.
"Haha, I didn't expect that the origin of General Xie's abilities would have such an interesting story."
Xie Zhen covered his mouth and laughed for a while, then said, "When my sixth brother couldn't bear it anymore, he would go out of the mansion to challenge the young men from various families. At first, he would spar with the younger ones, but the younger ones couldn't beat him, and they couldn't save their face. Since the younger ones couldn't do that, he would send the older ones, and many of the older ones couldn't beat him either. But there were always a few older ones who had experience and could break his weapons with just a few punches and kicks. After losing, he would return to the mansion and bow to his father, brothers, and uncles, saying that their skills were useless and they had to pack up and go learn from the other families."
Zhang Dayi became more amused as he listened. "I really can't imagine how clever General Xie was at that time."
As Xie Zhen recalled, a smile lingered on the corners of his lips. "Sixth brother was truly happy at that time. Father and brothers were really afraid that he would stand out in front of other people's houses and bring shame to the Xie family after so many years. They were also secretly dissatisfied with the other families for sending young men who were so much older than him to such a fate. So they all used their best skills to teach him how to break the enemy's moves and defeat the enemy. You have to use your brain even when using a gun. At such a young age, he learned a set of deadly moves and kept them in the mansion for a month before letting him out. Haha——"
Speaking of this, Xie Zhen really couldn't help but laughed a few times.
"A month later, the six sons of the Xie family were like tigers descending from the mountains, challenging other families and nearly forcing the elders of other families who held prestigious positions and positions to their deaths."
Zhang Dayi was genuinely happy this time, and said with a smile, "When you become an official, the nature of things changes."
"Yes, so he came back happily carrying his spear, while other families closed their doors and refused to see visitors so that they could teach their younger generation a lesson."
Everyone burst into laughter.
Zhang's eyes curved as she smiled, "I remember back then, his second uncle even deliberately withheld a generous gift and accompanied Big Brother to various households to apologize on Yuchuan's behalf. When he came back, he happily drank with Big Brother all night, right, Big Sister-in-law?"
Madam Zhou smiled and nodded. "Yes, when his father came back, he was beaming. I hadn't seen him that cheerful in ages. It wasn't the most glorious thing, but he was so happy. He even said, 'It's okay if a child is naughty, as long as he has real ability.'" She couldn't help laughing, then teasingly said, "I don't know who punished him to kneel before his ancestors in the ancestral hall all day long."
If we really talk about Xie Yuchuan's past embarrassing stories, the Xie family can bring out a basket of them. Things that everyone used to find troublesome now have become a warm fire on this cold journey when people think about them.
The time passed quickly, and soon the officers called everyone to continue on their journey.
After a short rest, everyone in the Xie family stood up and tidied themselves up. It was getting dark quickly, and they hadn't felt the coldness when they were moving around, but after sitting still for a while, they felt even colder.
Fortunately, the clothes we wear now are more warm than before, so everyone stretched their muscles and bones and soon felt better.
The signal bombs from the rear were becoming fewer and fewer. Chu Feijian observed that the intervals between each bomb were getting longer and longer.
I feel a lot more confident.
His duty was to lead this group of fugitives behind him. While there was still a lot of light in the sky, Chu Feijian instructed his men and the entire team to hurry on their journey without stopping. Once they reached a safe place, they would find a way to get some food.
By now, all the exiles have already understood their current situation and have few complaints.
Being alive and starving is always better than losing one's life. Moreover, judging by the attitude of Chu Feijian and other officials and the Xie family, they did not give up on rescuing the person even if he fainted. This behavior actually made everyone feel a lot more at ease.
As long as we listen and follow the officers, we shouldn't be in any more danger.
It was rare that everyone's thoughts were almost the same.
As the sky darkened, an officer suddenly rushed forward from behind, "Sir! Sir! Someone seems to be coming from behind!"
Chu Feijian perked up instantly when he heard this: "Let's go!"
For the safety of the entire team, he deliberately placed experienced yamen runners at the back of the team.
Chu Feijian thought that there were enemies chasing them, so he immediately turned around and headed back. Unexpectedly, not long after, a team of fast horses came running towards them.
From afar, a voice came:
"Sir, please wait a moment!"
The man came with supplies in front of Chu Feijian, and the latter saw that the other person's clothes were similar to his.
We are one of us.
With their arrival, Chu Feijian did not expect that with the war in the rear being so severe, the Lord and General Xie still remembered the food and supplies they had here, and he felt deeply moved for a moment.
If time wasn't so tight, he would have kept the other person.
After leaving the food, the man relayed the orders from Xie Yuchuan and Xiong Jiushan, then observed the situation in the team, turned his horse around, and went back to report.
