Chapter 257 Isn’t it because of my amazing wife?
"Xu Yu is back."
Deputy General Wu nodded: "Yes."
Chen Nianhe took a deep breath: "Xu Yu is back, and he also took Sang Zhixia away."
Deputy General Wu remained calm and slowly lowered his head, his voice a little softer than before: "Yeah, that's right."
Chen Nianhe's face darkened as he slammed the table in anger: "It's fine if he didn't come back to help! But this brat even took away the person who was doing the real work!"
"What the hell does this bastard want to do!"
Deputy General Wu lowered his head and tried to reduce his presence. He said weakly, "According to the people around Mr. Sang, Young Master Xu has returned home with his men to farm."
Chen Nianhe: “…”
Lieutenant Wu thought it was ridiculous. Facing Chen Nianhe's murderous gaze, he swallowed hard and said, "Young Master Xu said that the Sang family has done everything they can for you. The general has to do the rest himself. Don't..."
"Don't want what?"
Chen Nianhe forced out a sinister smile and gritted his teeth: "Speak!"
"Don't rely on Ms. Sang's good temper to ask her to do everything!"
Lieutenant General Wu closed his eyes with a fearless attitude and said in a resounding voice, "Young Master Xu also said that the busy spring season is precious. Don't delay them from returning home to farm! The work in the fields cannot be delayed!"
Chen Nianhe: “…”
After a long silence, Chen Nianhe closed his eyes tightly, took a few breaths, and then gritted his teeth and said, "Where's Sang Zhixia?"
"That bastard Xu Yu doesn't get along with this general. That girl has been with me through thick and thin, after all. Doesn't she have any intention of staying to help?!"
Lieutenant General Wu's eyes showed a trace of pity when he heard this. He almost buried his head in the ground because he couldn't bear it. His tone was erratic: "General, Mr. Sang was very happy when he left."
Chen Nianhe's face became even darker.
Deputy General Wu sighed faintly: "General, you didn't see it."
"When Mr. Sang was preparing to return to the village, he couldn't even wait to pack his luggage or even waste time getting a carriage. He and Young Master Xu rode on horseback, braving the wind and snow."
His eagerness to return home and his joy to leave the city were beyond words.
Lieutenant General Wu really didn't show any hesitation or reluctance at all.
Chen Nianhe's face, which had long been wooden, was covered with an unspeakable coldness. He even felt a little annoyed in his heart, wondering why he had asked such a question and brought shame upon himself.
Lieutenant General Wu sighed wildly in his heart.
Chen Nianhe clenched his fists hard to suppress his anger and said coldly, "It's better to go back."
This will prevent him from wanting to draw his knife when he sees Xu Yu.
but!
I still get angry when I think about it!
Chen Nianhe's eyes were red with anger. He turned around a few times and said, "Do you know all the people Sang Zhixia circled out and sent soldiers to protect?"
Deputy General Wu's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "Sang Dongjia gave me the list."
"That's good."
Chen Nianhe rubbed his fists, sneered, and said murderously: "Prepare everything you need to collect at once. When the imperial envoys who deliver food and conduct a thorough investigation arrive, this general will have a lot to say to these people!"
Deputy General Wu nodded in agreement. Just as he was about to go down to make arrangements, he heard Chen Nianhe say, "Also, the people from Kyoto will be arriving soon."
"Give the brothers below a warning and let them know that there are some things they cannot say."
Chen Nianhe paused for a moment and said solemnly, "Some people can't be mentioned either, understand?"
The Northwest was able to overcome this disaster thanks to the Xu family. Countless lives were saved because of the rice and grain that leaked from the Xu family.
But you can't say that.
Deputy General Wu knew this clearly, and he sighed and couldn't help but say, "General, you don't know, many people are saying that Sang Dongjia is not a Bodhisattva on the shrine, but a living Bodhisattva who saves lives."
"Not many people know about the Xu family, but countless people have eaten the rice porridge given by the Sang family. Even if the general doesn't say it, the brothers below know it in their hearts."
There is no way to repay the life-saving grace. Whatever you say is false. Those who survived by relying on that bowl of rice porridge will remember it in their hearts.
No one will talk nonsense.
Chen Nianhe's eyes were filled with regret, and he sneered, "I wonder what kind of divine eye that bastard Xu Yu got, to marry such a good wife."
This huge favor was given by Sang Zhixia.
The person whose life was saved also owed Sang Zhixia a debt of gratitude.
But Xu Yu is Sang Zhixia's husband, so he will naturally benefit from Sang Zhixia.
Chen Nianhe said disdainfully, "What a rotten young master! In the end, didn't he still rely on his amazing wife?"
"Bah!"
"A-choo!"
Xu Yu sneezed loudly, causing the people opposite him to frown.
Aunt Xu San stuffed the steaming ginger soup into Sang Zhixia's hands, glared at Xu Yu and said, "You're such a grown-up, how come you have so many things to do?"
"that is."
Second Aunt Xu complained, "You have thick skin and a bit of cold wind, so it's no big deal. How can Xia Xia be the same as you?"
"The carriages in the city are always ready. At worst, someone from home could come and pick you up. Why do you have to rush back on horseback? How can you bear the cold wind blowing all the way here?"
Xu Wenxiu didn't say anything, but just looked at Xu Yu's bad face, and wished that the knife in front of him could turn into a scimitar and cut Xu Yu's flesh.
Xu Yu, who had finally returned home after being away for several months, did not feel the warmth of his family. Instead, he was met with many cold stares and scoldings as soon as he entered the door because of his recklessness in riding a horse with Sang Zhixia in the snow to go home.
Sang Zhixia was covered tightly and huddled beside the charcoal basin, saying with a mixture of laughter and tears, "I really didn't blow it at all."
Xu Yu wrapped her up tightly with a cloak and a cape, so that not even a hair was exposed. The journey was a bit bumpy, and she was sweating when she got home, but she wasn't cold at all.
And it was she who took the initiative to suggest riding back on horseback.
Xu Yu didn't agree at first...
But I have said this many times, but unfortunately no one believes it.
Xu Yanran stuffed a small heater into Sang Zhixia's arms.
The little girl's voice was crisp and full of resentment: "Sister-in-law is partial to brother."
"Big brother is so unreliable, why are you still speaking for him?"
"My sister-in-law just has a very good temper."
Xu Mingyang leaned close to Sang Zhixia and gave Xu Yu, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, a cold look.
"Big brother is..."
“Ouch!”
"Can you try speaking a few more words?"
Xu Yu grabbed Xu Mingyang's neck like a chick, pulled him aside, and sneered, "You've really grown up in just a few months."
"Now you can even gesture towards my nose, aren't you..."
"Third brother is not wrong."
Xu Mingxu, precocious and calm despite his young age, looked at Xu Yu with a stern face, his large, distinct black and white eyes filled with resentment: "Big brother is just messing around."
"My sister-in-law is in poor health and is afraid of taking bitter medicine. If she catches a cold..."
Xu Mingxu had the mysterious demeanor of an old man. He would suddenly stop talking in the middle of his words. At such a young age, he had already mastered the art of leaving something to be said but not saying it.
Xu Wenxiu heard this and pinched Xu Yu's arm, saying, "Nonsense!"
"The bigger they get, the more crazy they get!"
Xu Yu was twisted so hard that he gritted his teeth and gasped. The old man sitting in the middle saw this and sneered.
"Itchy skin."
Xu Yu: “…”
It was him who sneezed just now!
Why doesn't anyone care about his life or death? !
Sang Zhixia held the ginger soup and lowered her head silently. In the warm steam coming out of the ginger soup, she tried hard to ignore Xu Yu's resentful eyes.
Mmm, ginger soup is really delicious.
