Chapter 560 Zhizhi, put your heart in your stomach
No one knew whether Sang Zhixia was satisfied or not, but the captives who were presented to him were visibly unhappy.
Sang Zhixia suppressed her laughter and sent the defeated and humiliated little ones to change their clothes. When she returned to the north courtyard, she saw Xu Yu holding a baby in one hand and teasing it.
Perhaps it was because Xu Yu hadn't been back for a long time, Nuonuo and Yuanbao rarely disliked their father. They were very happy to be held in Xu Yu's arms, babbling something inaudible.
Xu Yu asked and answered questions, as if he really understood, which seemed to be the case.
Sang Zhixia raised her hand and pinched Xu Yu's nose: "You're not ashamed of wandering around the village with a bunch of calves."
Xu Yu smiled indifferently: "It's not my people who are lost."
Those people had bad intentions. They knew he was coming back, so they set up an ambush at the village entrance and have been waiting there until now just to see him make a fool of himself. What's wrong with him dealing with them?
A small punishment but a big warning, telling them that underestimating the enemy is a big taboo in military strategy, isn't that a good idea?
Besides, the most embarrassing person tonight was actually Chen Jingan who was trapped in the net.
What does this have to do with Xu Yu?
Sang Zhixia was too lazy to bother with such trivial matters. She sat down and snorted, "You're back at this time. Have the things from the Northwest Camp been delivered?"
"It's delivered."
Xu Yu opened his mouth and made a biting gesture. Nuonuo giggled and slapped Xu Yu in the face.
Xu Yu was laughing even after being beaten. He bit his daughter's little paw with his lips, causing Nuonuo to howl in protest. Yuanbao grabbed the collar and climbed onto Xu Yu's head, looking like he was determined to avenge his sister.
Xu Yu grabbed the restless Yuanbao with his big hand and held it down, then buried his head and continued to tease Nuonuo.
Seeing the three of them making each other drool, Sang Zhixia couldn't stand it any longer and slammed the table: "It's getting late, stop teasing like that."
"They've had so much fun, who knows when they'll be ready to go to sleep tonight. Then you can just carry one on your back and hold the other to comfort them?"
Everything would be fine if Xu Yu didn't come back.
As soon as Xu Yu came back, the two little ones started making a lot of noise.
Xu Yu coughed and pretended to be serious. He tilted his head and kissed Sang Zhixia on the cheek. To Sang Zhixia's surprise, he said with a smile, "It's my fault."
"I finally got back. It's so late at night. I should have spent some quality time with my wife and talked about my longing for her. I shouldn't have just hugged them. I should have hugged my wife too."
After Xu Yu finished speaking, he spread his long legs to the sides, nodded his chin towards his thighs, and smiled as if inviting favor: "Zhizhi, come sit here, I'll hold you."
Sang Zhixia felt helpless and amused at the same time. She glared at Xu Yu and bared her teeth: "Who cares if you hug me?"
"you……"
"I cherish you."
Xu Yu freed his hands and stretched out his long arms, directly scooping Sang Zhixia into his arms and holding her in his arms. He rested his chin on Sang Zhixia's shoulder and said with a sullen smile, "Zhizhi, don't you miss me?"
"I've been away for over a month, and I don't miss it at all?"
Sang Zhixia's ears were itchy from the breath, so she pushed the big head away and gritted her teeth: "Be serious in front of the child."
"They don't understand."
Xu Yu no longer wanted to be a loving father. He tucked the dancing little one into the specially made wooden bed, then focused on Sang Zhixia and whispered, "I told you those kids deserved to be punished by copying military manuals."
"If they hadn't maliciously stopped me, I would have been home half an hour earlier. How could I bear to let you miss me for even a moment longer?"
Sang Zhixia was amused by his twisted and perverse words. She turned around, cupped the handsome face in front of her with both hands, and said through gritted teeth, "Stop interrupting me with your jokes."
"I have something serious to ask you, stop making trouble."
Xu Yu had been away for more than a month, and although the northwest seemed calm, there were actually many twists and turns behind the scenes.
No matter what's going on in Kyoto or Peng Yuanliang in South City, everything is a matter of great importance hanging on my mind. What's the point of not saying a word and just making a fuss?
Could this guy please behave himself a little?
Xu Yu wasn't angry when his restless hand was caught. He just pecked Sang Zhixia's neck lightly and intermittently, his voice hoarse, "Let Nuonuo and Yuanbao sleep in the east courtyard tonight, okay?"
Sang Zhixia's eyes darkened, and she was about to shake off Xu Yu's claws when Xu Yu smiled and said, "Zhizhi, let's go into the inner room and talk."
"Get rid of these two annoying little things, and I'll tell you everything you want to know."
Xu Yu had made up his mind and grabbed the two protesting babies and stuffed them into Diancui's arms.
Sang Zhixia didn't even finish her words before her feet left the ground and her hands reflexively wrapped around Xu Yu's neck.
Xu Yu lowered his head and kissed Sang Zhixia on the lips as if rewarding her, and walked happily: "Let's talk inside."
He said he would talk about it after entering the house, but as Sang Zhixia expected, he was blocked by passion after entering the house, and the next thing to say was not continued.
The next morning, Sang Zhixia held out her hand expressionlessly. Xu Yu, holding a cup of water, knew he was in the wrong and attentively put the cup to Sang Zhixia's lips: "I've added honey to the water to soothe your throat. Zhizhi, try it and see if it's sweet enough."
sweet……
Sang Zhixia's mind reverberated with the nonsense Xu Yu had whispered to her at night. Her ears burned as she glared at Xu Yu, her voice strangely hoarse, "You're quite tactful."
"I shouldn't be ungrateful after getting such a sweet benefit."
Seeing that Sang Zhixia had stopped drinking, Xu Yu put the cup away and rubbed Sang Zhixia into his arms again. Seeing that she looked lazy and didn't want to get up, he simply circled her and coaxed her softly: "The children are all in the east courtyard. Get up, eat something and sleep for a while. I'll accompany you?"
Sang Zhixia, who was originally lazy, didn't want to lie down the moment he heard this.
Xu Yu was amused by Sang Zhixia's vigilance. He took the initiative to get clothes for her to change, and called Diancui to bring her food.
After dinner, Sang Zhixia leaned back in a recliner listlessly, flipping through the account book and yawning. "I didn't have time to ask last night what the reaction was from the Northwest Camp."
"You took those things away, what did they say over there?"
Xu Yu secretly stored a large number of weapons, which was a serious crime.
However, how to judge the severity of the crime depends entirely on what Deputy General Wu and others think.
Sang Zhixia had been worried ever since she found out about this, and she couldn't help but frown as she spoke: "If there's any criticism over there, I'm afraid this matter will be difficult to handle."
"Won't."
Xu Yu discarded his airs and prestige, and returned to the small desk to pick up the pen and paper to help Sang Zhixia proofread. While writing and drawing, he said nonchalantly, "Chen Nianhe must have left a backup plan before he left. They won't act rashly."
Sang Zhixia seemed to be lost in thought.
Xu Yu flipped over a page and said, "Besides, I don't have those things. Even if someone comes and wants to convict me, they won't be able to find any evidence."
Xu Yu did not keep any of the weapons looted from the caravan. He integrated them and handed them over to Jiang Yubai's men that day, and transported them all the way to Lingnan.
Even if the people from the Northwest Camp were dissatisfied and wanted to cause trouble, they wouldn't be able to find anything if they came.
Sang Zhixia was not very reassured: "Are you really sure?"
"Zhizhi, put your heart in your stomach."
Xu Yu raised his pen and drew a perfect circle on the paper. He said calmly, "It's not easy to get off the pirate ship after getting on it. Even if they want to cause trouble, they should consider their own strength."
After taking root in the northwest and doing business for several years, the Xu family today is no longer the Xu family that was first exiled here.
If you want to touch him, you should probably consider the cost.
Seeing that he knew what was going on, Sang Zhixia stopped asking. After a pause, she lowered her voice unconsciously: "How's it going in Kyoto?"
