disgrace for the grandson of the Li family to marry the daughter of the Peng family! Soon after, Mr. Wen entered the academy and came out after a while. 。Mr. Peng heard that the Li family was coming...Everyone was taken aback, not understanding what had come over him. Just as they were about to ask, Young Master Yan started to cry.

"My Lord, please accept me! I too wish to join the army and make my contributions by slaying enemies!"

The lord frowned, reaching out to help him up, "There's no need to kneel, just sit and tell me slowly."

But Young Master Yan refused, "Lord Hou, I am not joking. I have made up my mind. Please allow me to follow you into battle, make achievements and establish a reputation. I used to think that I was very talented and would surely have a bright future. Because of this, I was arrogant and looked down on others. But now, I have nothing, not even enough to protect my wife and children!

Only then did I realize that I am worthless and not a man at all! The reason my family has always ignored me, dismissed my words, and looked past my resistance is because I've left the support and protection of my home. Without it, I'm nothing. My wife and children, even myself, can be discarded and treated however they please by my family.

“I must stand up and rely on myself to support my wife and children. But besides building houses, I can’t do anything else, I’m utterly useless. So, I want to join the battlefield. This is the fastest opportunity to make a name for myself. Please, Lord, grant me your approval!”

Young Master Yan hit his head hard on the ground. He really put some effort into it, and his forehead immediately turned red.

The Lord pondered for a moment, then with a heave of his hands, helped him to his feet. "Have you spoken to your wife about this desire to join the army After all, you are not alone now. You are a father and a husband. The battlefield is a dangerous place, and if something were to happen to you, have you considered what would become of them"

Young Master Yan was taken aback, his expression a little dazed. He clearly hadn't considered this thoroughly.

The Marquis continued, “I am naturally delighted that the sons of Tianwu all consider recovering our lost territories as their duty. They are willing to take up arms to defend their homeland. However, I don't want you to make a rash decision and regret it on the battlefield. At that time, perhaps the one who suffers the most wouldn't be you, but many more good men.”

“No, I won’t…” Young Master Yan was about to retort, but the Marquis waved his hand. “We set out tomorrow. You still have a day to consider. If you decide to go, we will march together. But as I said before, once an arrow is loosed, there is no turning back. The battlefield is no child’s play! If you run away in battle, perhaps it will be my own hand that strikes you down, upholding military law!”

Having said that, he nodded to the crowd and embraced Jia Yin. "Come on, Fu Nuer, accompany your godfather for a while. We can't show favoritism, you have to share some of your good fortune with your godfather as well."

Jia Yin laughed and hugged her foster father's neck, "The rest of the good fortune goes to my foster father. My foster father and father will surely defeat the barbarians like a landslide!"

Good! Excellent start, a brilliant victory!

Everyone burst into laughter and waved goodbye as the big and small figures walked out.

Tao Hongying also pulled Li Laosi back to pack their luggage, and reminded him of a few things along the way.

Then Li Laotai helped Yan Gongzi back to the east room and, under the pretext of picking vegetables, left them alone to discuss things.

I wonder how Mr. Yan persuaded Miss Hui, but the next day, he requested Old Madam to prepare a set of luggage for him as well. He wanted to join them on their expedition.

The old woman couldn't help but sigh, her heart filled with a thousand words of advice to keep him. After all, he had some means. How could she possibly support her daughter and grandson if he left

It seems like the people from Yan's family know, and they are probably going to take it out on Li's family and Suijin Tan.

Although he didn't instigate it, Yan Gongzi did set out from the Li family after all!

Though the Yan family might disapprove of their son now, if anything were to happen to him, everyone in the Yan family would transform their regret and guilt into anger. They would need someone to hate, someone to blame, in order to feel better.

Human nature is selfish and there's no logic to it.

Fortunately, although Young Master Yan was naive and impulsive, he wasn't stupid. He disguised himself and returned to the city, sending a letter to his sister, brother-in-law, and each member of the Yan family.

The letter explains that Huiniang and the child died, both of them.

He was disheartened and left home, wandering the four seas as a recluse.

The vengeance for losing my wife and child can be offset by the kindness YAN Family has shown me in raising me. From now on, dust returns to dust, ashes to ashes, and he will cease to exist in this world.

When Yan Jia received the letter, Young Master Yan had already changed his name to Li Yong and followed the Marquis to the dock.

Li Laosi, known for his righteousness, gifted Yan Gongzi with a specially made saber.

No, Young Master Yan is now his "cousin Li Yong."

Li Yong knew exactly where this saber came from, and his eyes turned red instantly. He didn't know what to say.

Li Lao Si, however, patted his shoulder heartily, "Take it! You just need to use it. I'm good with a bow and arrow, all I need is a good one. Besides, I have two daggers too, that should be enough. As for you, a scholar with no strength to bind a chicken, you better start practicing with your sword. Otherwise, when facing barbarians, you wouldn't even withstand a single blow."

Li Yongzhong took swordsmanship seriously. From then on, he carried his saber with him at all times, except when eating or sleeping. All his free time was spent practicing with it.

Even though his arms were swollen and sore from exhaustion, he didn't stop.

Jiang Cheng, the original head of the Marquis's guards, listened to the order and arranged Li Laosi and Li Yong under his command. He was genuinely troubled for a while.

Li Lao Si was of course invincible, he had seen it with his own eyes. Such a good fighter, one hundred would be ideal.

But someone like Li Yong, even walking a few extra steps makes him out of breath, it's really difficult to deal with.

On the battlefield, don't even talk about killing the enemy; even protecting him would require several skilled guards.

Luckily, Li Yong was surprisingly hardworking. He was willing to teach him more, and in the end, he was truly impressed!

Of course, that's all for later.

The Li family in Suijin Beach, was heartbroken after sending off Li Lao Si. The entire family remained despondent for several days.

Li Laosan, having heard that his younger brother had enlisted in the army, specially ran back from Luo'an to inquire.

When he knew it was true, he left with tears in his eyes.

Although he knew this younger brother was a wild and untamable character, and that he was incredibly brave and almost invincible, there were still uncertainties on the battlefield. Who could guarantee his safety in such a volatile situation

Jiao Yin didn't know that her father had given away the sword he’d made, the one he’d scraped her skin three times looking for materials to build. She was still thinking about what to plant in the few acres of land behind the small courtyard this year.

Green vegetables are definitely something to grow, chickens, ducks, geese and rabbits all eat them.

Those two pig couples and the first litter of piglets have all grown up. They are all gluttons, she can't afford to feed them anymore.

It's fine to just let a pig couple raise their children, but for everything else, you still have to bite the bullet and keep pushing through.

Counting the days, my uncle and third brother are almost arriving in Quanzhou.

It's no surprise; in another month, they will certainly be back.

Then, she could get to work and take some of the sesame seeds from the little courtyard.

For example, lettuce, rapeseed, tomatoes, and most importantly, chili peppers!

Perhaps, before autumn arrives, she could enjoy boiled fish, twice-cooked pork, and barbecue...

Just thinking about it, her mouth started to water...

Old Mrs. Li missed her son, absentmindedly picking at soybean seeds. Occasionally, she turned her head to see her granddaughter drooling and couldn't help but feel both exasperated and amused.

"Little girl, what are you craving again Your mother is a bit busy recently, she'll make it for you when she gets back."

"Auntie, is the valley this busy every day" Huiniang asked, sitting beside her and helping out.ogether, always hoping that her daughters would learn some skills.So, Baozhu got her wish. After sending her mother away, she completely let loose and had a good time.She got a set of maidservant's cl...
