Cannon fodder for his brother

Chapter 939
"Father, mother, I want to join the army."

"what?"

Just after the Spring Festival, there was movement in Gu Qingxiu's belly, Ning's father and Ning's mother were so happy that they smiled, and Ning Zhen was even more happy, and she giggled when she saw someone, but she never thought that the eldest son would say such a thing.

"I don't allow it." Before Ning's father could speak, Ning's mother slapped the table first, "I will absolutely not allow this kind of thing."

"mother--"

"Don't call me mother, if you dare to go, don't recognize me as mother."

"What time is it now? There's chaos everywhere. The Civil War is imminent. The situation is getting more and more dangerous. How dare you?"

Father Ning also disagreed.

Now is not a time of peace, seeing that the war is about to break out, Ning Hong is going to go to war like this, this cannonball is short-sighted, life and death are unpredictable on the battlefield, how could they be willing?

"Son, why did you come up with this idea so well? Our family is doing well, what do we have to fight with our lives?" The Ning family has plenty of money, so there is no need to do such a thing, Ning's mother's voice trembled with excitement up.

For a long time, the Ning family has been dominated by Ning Hong, who is in charge of the family. The two old people basically listen to him, so what does he say?Never refuted him, but at this moment, they must be tough.

"I'll listen to my father about this matter, and my father won't allow you to go."

"Dad, Mom, I have to go."

Ning Hong knelt down, pursed her lips, and refused to give in at all.

"For Yu Gong, nowadays, the country is in turmoil and the wind and rain are precarious. It's not just the war between the North and the South. If these people come to the upper city, we will not be able to escape."

"Then - you can't go to fight. We can leave here and go somewhere else."

Ning's mother said angrily, she couldn't help but took a step forward, and hammered Ning Hongze's shoulders twice. Seeing her like this, she wished she could tie up Ning Hongze, lock him in the room, and never let him go out again. , "I don't care, I don't care about other people, I am your mother, I only care about you, I only want you to be well, as long as you are well."

"Mom, I know you love me, so why am I willing to leave you, but if everyone is afraid of this and that, and outsiders call, who will protect our country?"

Ning Hong took Mother Ning's hand, "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of a country."

Although this is just a fictional world, since he lives in this place, he is a person of this world. He is willing to fight for his country. Besides, in this era, if he wants to protect his family, he must have that power.If not, the huge Ning family will eventually fall into the hands of those warlords.

"Anyway, anyway, you can't go." As she spoke, Ning's mother couldn't help but shed tears again. She is a very ordinary woman, and she doesn't want to see her son take risks at all. die.

"All right."

Father Ning stared at Ning Hong for a while, seeing his firm face, he couldn't help grinding his teeth, "You've already made up your mind?"

"Yes."

"Actually, to serve the country, you don't have to join the army. We can donate materials."

"father--"

Ning Hong looked at Father Ning seriously, "You should understand me."

"I just understand, I don't want to see you take risks."

Father Ning's eye sockets couldn't help getting wet. "I can sell everything in the Ning family."

"They won't believe it. After the first time, they will want the second time. Even if we give them all the family property, they will suspect that we are hiding something." Those people's desires are endless .

"But--"

"Father, I am the eldest son of the Ning family. I should be responsible for everything in the Ning family. I want to protect you. Only by joining the army and obtaining military power can I protect the Ning family."

"Brother, why don't I go, I—" Ning Zhen also knelt down.

Hearing that his elder brother was going to join the army, Ning Zhen turned pale.He originally wanted to persuade his elder brother not to go, but when he heard his elder brother say that everyone is responsible, he couldn't say a lot of words of advice.

That's right, once those warlords hit the upper city, or those invaders hit here, their Ning family's great fortune would become the target of public criticism.

No matter how rich their family is, they can't afford those knives, wooden warehouses and artillery.

The only way is to have military power.

"You can't, you are a weak literary youth. If you go, you will just die. Besides, Qingxiu is pregnant. As a husband, you should be with you." Ning Hong patted Ning Zhen on the shoulder in relief. "To be honest, brother is really relieved. We have a lot of patriots here. Of course, there are also many who say they are patriotic and say they want to resist feudal customs, but what they do is disgusting as pigs and dogs. I've always been afraid that you would become that kind of person. Fortunately, you reined in the precipice and changed your mind in time, otherwise—"

"How about otherwise?"

"Hey, don't ask, you don't want to know." Ning Hong smiled at him and patted him on the head again.

Ning Zhen shrunk her neck subconsciously, just knelt like that and took two steps back.

After being retreated by him like this, the serious atmosphere at the scene dissipated a lot.

Even Ning's mother's tears were hanging on her face, and she couldn't shed them.

"Father, mother, let me go."

The two old men sighed heavily, and finally couldn't help but nod their heads.

Gu Qingxiu touched her stomach, and looked at Ning Hongze with a little more admiration.

The eldest brother is always beyond her expectations, no matter it is about Ning Zhen, Ning's family, or national affairs, he can always make decisions that she admires.

"Do what you want, but remember, there are people waiting for you at home."

"After you leave, we will sell most of the Ning family's properties, live in seclusion, and not cause trouble, so you can rest assured." Father Ning said tearfully.

"Father, mother, don't worry, I will return safely."

Not long after, Ning Hong left home. Before he left, he had Zhang Ke'er's sister and nephew brought to his home.

"This is--"

Ning's father and Ning's mother just showed joy on their faces, "Is this——your child?"

"No." Ning Hong directly punctured the fantasies of the two, "This is a poor child. His father was killed just after he was born."

"I saw that they were lonely and helpless, so I brought them back."

Zhang Ke'er: "..."

Sister Zhang: "..."

"I see. I'm really sorry for reminding you of these sad things."

"Not at all. His death is also a relief to me."
