Lu Zheng smiled and tapped Gu Xin's nose.
Gu Hui couldn't bear to watch any longer and looked away.
Judging from this, Ah Yuan hasn't had any of those messy things with Xin Xin yet!
That's right, Xin Xin is still... not good now. Let's see how many years he can hold on!
I can accept Ah Yuan as my brother-in-law.
Gu Xin continued, "However, I'm not fair-skinned, and my hair isn't black either. My mother and sister are feeling a bit better lately, but I still feel like I'm not fair enough and my hair isn't black enough. Even so, I'm still the prettiest girl in our village."
Gu Hui silently rolled her eyes. Your standards are really high. You're already very fair-skinned, and your hair is very black and straight!
Lu Zheng laughed and said, "Yes, you are not only the most beautiful girl in our village, but also the most beautiful girl in Zhoujia Town."
You are still the best and most beautiful girl in my heart.
Gu Xin was overjoyed: "Really? Really? Hahahaha, ever since my sister forced me to say that last time, I've started to believe it myself! Hahahaha..."
Lu Zheng also laughed: "Hahahaha..."
Gu Hui tilted her head and looked at the two of them from her angle. The sunlight shone on them, as if giving them a layer of light, making them look particularly bright and pleasing to the eye.
These two really look alike when they smile, especially their eyes, which are just like crescent moons.
Normally, A Yuan smiles very reservedly, and he almost never smiles in front of outsiders except the Gu family.
She realized she had seen him laugh like that twice, both times with the same silly grin that Xin Xin had.
She could almost picture her grandparents chatting and laughing heartily. You see, her grandmother was an old lady who rarely laughed.
Gu Hui was startled by her own thought.
What is she thinking?
Do your younger siblings want to be your grandparents?
She shook her head, quickly clearing her mind of these thoughts: "Ah Yuan, Gang Xin Xin, you want to be a great general? You'll join the army?"
Lu Zheng nodded: "Yes, after I go to the capital with my great-uncle to present the seeds next year, I will go to the military camp."
Gu Hui nodded, then, as if struck by a sudden thought, asked, "Are there any girls in our Great Zhou who join the army?"
Lu Zheng was taken aback and looked at Gu Hui in surprise.
Gu Xin immediately grabbed Gu Hui's arm: "Sister Huihui, do you want to join the army? Don't go, don't go, it's very dangerous."
Gu Hui: "...I was just asking."
Lu Zheng said, "It's not that there wasn't a female general during the reign of the late Emperor Ying. However, she was disguised as a man and fought alongside General Peng in the southern frontier. Later, she married General Peng and became the current Madam Peng. I've heard people say that she was incredibly fierce back then and cooperated very well with General Peng. In the decisive battle, she took the head of the enemy leader, leaving the enemy leaderless, demoralized, and defeated."
Gu Hui's eyes lit up.
Lu Zheng smiled at Gu Hui's expression. This woman was no less capable than Madam Peng back then. It was a pity that the Gu family would probably not let her go to the battlefield.
...
They traveled at a great pace, stopping three times along the way, and finally entered Yuzhou Prefecture City around 3 PM.
After checking their travel permits and entering the city, Lu Zheng led them to a courtyard that was larger than the one in Qingzhou Prefecture.
The gatekeeper saw Lu Zheng and bowed respectfully, saying, "Young Master is back!"
Lu Zheng nodded: "Uncle Hu, I'm coming to stay for a few days. No need to make a fuss. You can have Aunt Hu come and prepare the meals."
