"Of course it's true. Your uncle may still joke around, but your aunt is not like that. When have you ever seen her talk nonsense?"
Jin'er nodded and thought about it for a moment. She also felt that what he said made sense, so she smiled.
Seeing her like this, Du Jingyi also acted like an elder and said jokingly.
"Our Jin'er has become more and more charming. Her smile just now made even my aunt's heart tremble slightly. I wonder which capable son-in-law will be worthy of her in the future?"
As soon as Du Jingyi finished speaking, Jin'er's face turned red, but before she could say anything, she saw Tai Ge'er and the others had finished practicing and came over, so she asked a question.
"Why did you say that, mother? There is already a kid who doesn't know how to live or die targeting our Jin'er?"
His tone was light when he said it, but Wen Ge'er and Zhong Ge'er behind him were already grinning, as if they would rush out and bite people as long as their eldest brother gave the order.
Looking at Ming Ge'er and Cong Ge'er more closely, although they acted indifferent, their eyes were very sharp, as if as long as Du Jingyi revealed a name, they would immediately check this person and make him suffer! Seeing this, Du Jingyi couldn't help but hold his forehead.
In the past, she felt that she had grown up in a pampered environment, and her father's love had penetrated into her bones. But now, compared with Jin'er, she felt that they were more terrifying. These brothers and sisters were the biggest obstacles to her future marriage.
The eldest aunt and the second aunt couldn't hold it in any longer. It was a rare occasion to see Du Jingyi get humiliated, so naturally they laughed out loud and were happy.
"What are you laughing at, sister-in-law? If you are so happy, why don't you say it out loud and make me happy?"
Hearing the voice, everyone was surprised and immediately stood up to greet it.
Outside, the bustling Fourth Aunt finally came back from Quanzhou. She didn't look tired at all, and she looked much healthier because Lizhu accompanied her along the way.
Now he looks like he is only a few years older than Du Jingyi, and doesn't look like he has wasted any time.
Because Sanlang Yan was still in Quanzhou, Third Aunt and Gu Xiaolang also left with Gu Xiaochun and the others last year. When they left, Fourth Aunt was worried about the three of them going to Quanzhou alone, so she escorted them.
I stayed in Quanzhou to celebrate the New Year with her family and experienced different folk customs.
"You didn't even tell us you were coming back so we could go to the door to greet you!"
"What's there to welcome? I have to welcome someone when I return to my own home. How come I am no longer a member of this family just because I've been away? What a fool my sister-in-law is!"
"Oh, this is such an injustice. I can't argue with you."
"It doesn't matter if you can't argue. Hehe, I brought you some specialties from Quanzhou. Last time when the third sister-in-law brought them, didn't the eldest and second sisters-in-law say they liked them? This time, I brought back three boxes, enough for you to eat!"
Fourth Aunt spoke quickly and sharply, and her return was what the children were most excited about today. Tai Ge walked up to her, looked at her, and then said something.
"Grandmother, please take a look at us brothers. We haven't been lazy at all since you left!"
Fourth Aunt looked back at the children from top to bottom, then reached out and pinched the children's bones and the flesh on their arms. They were indeed much stronger, so she smiled until her eyes almost disappeared and said.
"Okay, I will never go back on my promise to you. But if you want to join the guard team for training, you must first get past your Aunt Lizhu. Even you, my Fourth Grandmother, may not be able to beat her now."
Hearing this, Du Jingyi looked at Li Zhu with satisfaction.
She has been traveling around with her fourth aunt over the years, and she is indeed different from before, especially when she puts on armor, she looks like a female general.
His eyes are determined and his demeanor is dashing.
"Ah? Fighting against Aunt Lizhu? Doesn't that mean we have no chance of winning?"
Wen Ge'er pouted. Although he was proud of his abilities, he was still very self-aware when facing a strong enemy.
"I have practiced for many more years than you have. If it's a one-on-one match, it would be unfair for me to win. How about we fight together? If you can make me fall off the training ground within a hundred moves, I will lose."
When Tai Ge'er heard this, he looked at Cong Ge'er.
In terms of cunning, Wen Ge'er and Zhong Ge'er combined are not even half as smart as Cong Ge'er, so if forceful tactics fail, they will have to resort to underhanded tactics.
So the brothers, regardless of the fact that Li Zhu had just returned from a trip, dragged her to go to the competition.
Du Jingyi originally wanted to give him some advice, but was stopped by Jin'er.
"Aunt, let the brothers give it a try. What if it works?"
Among the children, Tai Ge'er was the oldest and Zhong Ge'er was the youngest. They were only about eight years old. However, the five little boys, each standing in a corner, surrounded Li Zhu.
Being small doesn't mean they are weak.
Since he was two years old, he began to practice some basic skills with Gu Shaoyu, and then practiced day after day with the masters at home, and never slacked off.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Today was a real battle, so none of the five people let down their guard. Tai Ge shouted, "Go," and they all rushed forward.
The moves include steady and cautious attacks to meet the enemy head-on, and also sudden attacks by dodging left and right.
Everyone originally thought it was a losing situation, but they were shocked by the endurance of the five boys.
Brother Tai sat in the middle, Brother Wen and Brother Zhong were naturally the vanguards, Brother Ming took care of the rear, and Brother Cong was the unexpected surprise force.
Such a simple layout that is very suitable for their personalities made the fourth aunt at the side couldn't help but sigh.
"Even when my father-in-law was around, the kids at home were just as smart as they are. Each generation is better than the last."
Her sentiments were also echoed by her eldest aunt and second aunt.
Du Jingyi was happy that he had such sons and nephews, and the pride he felt spontaneously was about to overflow.
Especially the last few moves, although Lizhu took them into consideration as they were children and did not use her full strength, but when she fell from the training ground, she found that there were oil marks on the soles of her feet, and she immediately pointed at Congge'er and said.
"Okay, you cheated!"
"As the Master said, all is fair in war! Aunt Lizhu lost, so she fulfilled her promise!"
“Hahahahahahaha, if Shao Yu knew that he had a son who was as cunning as a fox, what do you think his reaction would be?!”
Fourth Aunt's words reminded Du Jingyi of her husband again.
He has not appeared since he hurriedly came back on New Year's Eve two years ago. (End of this chapter)
