At this time, in General Duan's team.
Several young generals who were riding horses with Su Jin looked at the crowd that had gradually dispersed behind them, and were quite puzzled.
One person said, "Hey, didn't we win the battle? We even beat those cowards from Dongyang State so hard they wouldn't invade again for another ten years. Why don't these people seem very enthusiastic towards us? They don't seem to be here to welcome us at all. They seem to be here to watch the fun and then leave."
It’s not that we have to do anything about them, but they are far inferior to the people on the border.
Another person said: "I think so too!"
"Hey, why is that?"
"Su Jin, I'm a rough man, I haven't been to school for a few days, but you're smart. Tell me, what's going on?"
Everyone also looked at Su Jin.
After all, Su Jin is a famous "military advisor general" in the army and is highly appreciated by General Duan.
Su Jin smiled and stopped talking: "The capital is very far away from the border war. Compared with the border, here is a peaceful and prosperous era. The people here naturally cannot understand the suffering of war like the people in the border areas who have suffered from war for many years..."
Those who can become generals in the army are not truly stupid. Although Su Jin did not say it very directly, everyone still understood what he meant.
To put it bluntly, the people living on the border have personally experienced the suffering of war, and they understand the value of peace and their importance in stopping the war, so they respect and welcome them more.
One person said, "Then I still prefer the people on the border!"
"That's right, our people on the border are still the best!"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah! They'll even throw us some good food, hehe!"
Everyone laughed: "Hahaha! That's right!"
Su Jin laughed along, but thought in his heart: He liked the people here more. They had not suffered from war, so there was no helplessness and panic in their eyes. Everyone lived here without any worries.
He hoped that one day, the people on the border would be like the people in the capital, and that seeing them would not be like seeing a lifeline. He thought that only then would he realize the true meaning of fighting in the battlefield and defending his country...
The No. 1 Scholar's Mansion.
As soon as Su Li returned, Xiao Ye came to report: "Madam Zhou had just left the house this morning when Zhou Yi came to look for her."
"Zhou Yi knelt down in the room, swore, and promised. It took Madam Zhou the entire morning to appease him. Finally, Zhou Yi asked Madam Zhou to find a way to take the shop on Jinxiu Street from you..."
Zhou Yi and Madam Zhou were so shameless that they actually coveted Madam Zhou's shop. It was a prosperous shop on Jinxiu Street. Not to mention a prosperous shop on Jinxiu Street, even if it was a street stall in a slum, it didn't make sense for them to take it for granted.
Oh!
Su Li curled up the corners of his mouth and sneered: "You still want my shop? That's wishful thinking! I want to see how they are going to take my shop."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Wu came in and said, "Madam, Madam Zhou wants to see you."
He came so quickly, he was waiting for her to come back, but she insisted on leaving him alone.
"Let her go to the main hall."
"yes."
In the main hall.
Pei Xiuli was filled with anger.
Not only did she have to ask for permission from the servants to see Su Li, but she couldn't even see anyone in the living room. It was clearly an attempt to embarrass her. It was really abominable!
"Where's my sister-in-law? Why hasn't she come yet?"
Xiao Ye replied, "Madam is busy. She will come to see Madam Zhou when she is done."
"What the hell is she doing! Doesn't she know I'm here? Who does she think she is!"
Just wait, when her elder brother divorces her, she will definitely trample her under her feet to avenge today's revenge.
Xiao Ye said calmly, "Madam said that if Madam Zhou has something to do, she can leave first. It will be the same the next time we meet."
"You!" Pei Xiuli was extremely angry, but she now had something to ask of Su Li, so she didn't dare to turn against her. She was so angry that her chest heaved violently and her face was distorted.
At this time, Su Li was preparing to decorate the guest room for Su Jin in the outer courtyard.
The guest room was on the east side of the outer courtyard. It was the same size and layout as Pei Zhao's east wing, with three rooms. It was very spacious and sunny.
"This room will be the bedroom, the middle one the living room, and the one on the far left will be the study. Xiaowu will go buy the furniture later. The style will be similar to what's in Zhao'er's room."
"I understand, ma'am."
"Oh, by the way, I'll buy a bigger weapon rack for this study later."
After all, he is a military general, so there must be a place to put his weapons.
"Yes." Xiaowu replied.
"Little Sanzi will go to the palace gate to wait for Ajin at about the same time."
"yes……"
"Okay, go do your own thing."
Su Li sent the two away and then slowly returned to the inner courtyard.
