But he still held her hand and comforted her softly: "You are only sixteen years old, you can still grow, don't worry."
"Dad and Mom are both pretty tall, so don't worry, sweetheart."
Even so, Fu Xiao was still depressed. Why did all her brothers grow up a lot in two years, but only she...
He lowered his head and sighed, "Oh..."
Mu Lianshen coughed lightly and suppressed the urge to laugh.
Fu Xiao raised his head and whispered, "Grandpa went to find that old man. Is everything okay?"
Mu Lianshen pursed his lips and said nonchalantly, "It's okay. They are old friends and often quarrel."
"Let your grandfather scold him more, and he won't dare to try your skills again."
Fu Xiao thought that it was reasonable for him to be scolded for saying that he was small.
On the other side, after eating outside, Old Qi returned to his home and said to Uncle Wang, "Please clean up the house and make a pot of good tea."
Uncle Wang asked in confusion: "Are there any guests coming?"
Old Qi said with a smile: "That old fellow from the Mu family, if he knew I was looking for his precious granddaughter, would he not come over?"
Uncle Wang nodded in understanding, "You knew he had a bad temper, but you still went to get yourself into trouble."
After saying that, he went downstairs to make tea.
Qi Lao murmured: "I didn't do anything to her."
I thought that I would apologize to Mu Hongtao after he came.
Before the tea got cold, a familiar voice came from the door: "Qi Xianwu, you bastard."
As soon as Mr. Qi smiled, the door was kicked open. Mr. Mu came over aggressively, and without even entering the main room, he stood in the yard and started to curse...
"Didn't I warn you not to put your hands on my good boy? Tell me why you are such a bitch."
"Our cute little darling's wrist is swollen. You are so cruel, old man."
Mr. Qi had been sitting there quietly, letting him scold him. But when he heard that the child's wrist was swollen, he suddenly felt a little guilty. He carefully looked at Mr. Mu, who was angry, and asked, "Is it... is it that serious?"
"I didn't use that much force..."
When Mr. Mu heard this, he became even angrier, "Do you think my good boy is the same as the little bastards you usually teach?"
"Little girls have tender skin. You've lived for so long, don't you know this?"
Old Qi's eyes darted around...
Feeling very guilty.
He had never tested the skills of a sixteen-year-old girl, so he obviously didn't know.
Lie flat and let the scolding go.jpg
Mr. Mu kept scolding for ten minutes. Mr. Qi looked over carefully and said, "How about having a cup of tea to moisten your throat?"
"Hmph," Old Master Mu walked into the main room, picked up the tea on the table which was just the right temperature and drank it all in one gulp.
Mr. Qi poured another glass of wine and apologized, "I was wrong. I didn't think too much about it. I just saw that the kid was talented and wanted to give it a try."
Then he praised again: "But your little darling is really good, she even kicked me."
Old Master Mu snorted coldly: "You deserve it. I will make sure you can't change this bad habit."
Old Qi smiled apologetically, "Yes, yes, I'm used to it, you know that."
"But, my dear, don't you really plan to let her learn something from me?"
Before Mr. Mu got angry again, he said, "Is it not okay if I'm not so strict? That child is very talented, it would be good for her to learn more... What if..."
"Qi Xianwu..." Old Master Mu stared at him closely, and said in a gloomy tone: "It is no longer the time for everyone to take up guns and go to the battlefield."
"Lian Shen had to learn more at that time. He had to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and stay alive. So not only you, but all the teachers who taught him, I asked them to treat him strictly."
"But my little girl doesn't need it now. She has us to protect her. She doesn't need to do anything and can live well..."
Old Master Mu picked up the teacup and took another sip, then said calmly, "Besides, she is already very capable now, more capable than most children."
"Plus, the Mu family's reputation can completely protect her. She really doesn't need to be as tired as her father."
"My Lian Shen," said Mr. Mu, holding the teacup with trembling hands, "I almost died in your hands at that time. Do you remember?"
He still remembered that Mu Lianshen's ankle was bleeding from being bitten by a wolf. He was extremely thin and his face was as pale as snow.
The moment I saw him, I almost thought he was gone.
“That was the first time I doubted myself, why I wanted my children to follow my path,”
Mr. Qi was silent for a long time, and then said, "He likes that military uniform. Hongtao, the child likes it himself, you didn't force him to do so."
Mr. Mu smiled bitterly, "Do you like it?"
Do you really like it?
He remembered that when Mu Lianshen was about ten years old, his favorite thing was drawing and writing.
At that time, he felt that those people were not doing their jobs properly and never supported their children's studies.
He didn't even know when the child started to like martial arts and finally put on a military uniform until now.
Never backed down.
Sometimes he felt that it was the surname "Mu" that forced him to become the current Commander Mu.
If he had not been born in the Mu family, would he have chosen a different life and not experienced so many life and death moments?
Just live a dull life.
For a moment, the atmosphere between the two was very quiet.
Mr. Mu is reflecting.
Qi always dare not speak...
"Old Qi," Mr. Mu restrained his emotions and said with emotion: "Now it is different from our time. What the country needs now is no longer warriors..."
He pointed to his head and said, "What the country lacks now are intellectuals."
