my wife is mulan

"General Rouran is gone!" The spies came back and reported to Zhao Junsheng, "The subordinates have sent someone to follow up and believe that there will be news tomorrow morning!"

Zhao Junsheng was surprised, "Gone? Where did you go?"

"There are traces left by them at the edge of the woods. According to the traces they left when they left, they should have fled to Mobei!"

"Oh?" Zhao Junsheng wondered what was going on in his mind.

"Don't be careless, this Mogu Zhengxiong is not an ordinary leader of the Rouran tribe, he is very cunning! Send the order to the army to rest here tonight and spread secret whistles around!"

The next morning, the spies who tracked the Rouran people returned to report that the remaining Rouran people followed the river all the way to Mobei without any sign of stopping.

After hearing the spies' report, Zhao Junsheng sighed: "This Mo Gu Zhengxiong can afford and let go of a strong man with the determination and courage to break his wrists, his mind is shrewd and clear-headed. In the future, we may have one more formidable enemy!"

Bai Jinguang clasped his fists and asked, "General, shall we catch up?"

Zhao Junsheng waved his horsewhip: "If we can't catch up, order the army to withdraw and join Gao Xu's troops!"

One day later, Zhao Junsheng took back the recovered cattle, sheep, horses and other animals at the source of the river, and asked the herdsmen to take back some of the animals that were slaughtered and eaten on the way. He promised to send officials to send money and food as compensation within a few days. Soldiers help them rebuild their homes.

Two days later, Zhao Junsheng returned to Wuchuan City with soldiers and horses to protect his mother-in-law and brother-in-law.

When it was learned that Huahu died of a sudden illness because of the news that their mother and son had been taken away by the Rouran people, Huayuan cried beside the coffin until he died.

As the news spread, Wuchuan town officials and generals down to common people and slaves all came to worship.

The nearby county government received the news and sent officials to express their condolences within the past two days, and even the county chiefs who were closer to him came in person.

After Tuobajian in Pingcheng heard the news, he specially sent eunuchs to comfort him as a show of favor, and made Huahu General Dingbei and Marquis of Suiyang.

As the son-in-law, Zhao Junsheng received these officials, official envoys, emperor envoys, military generals, soldiers and civilians one by one.

On the day of the funeral, all the people in Wuchuan City spontaneously stood by the street outside Tongwai City to see the deceased off.

A woman in the crowd said to her young son: "Son, this man still wants to be an official! Usually when a family dies, people are very miserable. It would be nice if three or two relatives came to the funeral. Look at the scene again. It's not like dead people are more lively than other people's weddings!"

The child muttered: "These people are all trying to curry favor with officials!"

A middle-aged man next to him smiled and said to the woman: "His aunt can't say that. These people are all here for General Hua's face and her filial piety! General Hua joined the army as a woman instead of her father." Go to battle

It is a good story through the ages that the enemy made military exploits and named him a marquis and worshiped a general. May I ask how many people can be compared with generals from ancient times to the present? "

After working for several days, I finally sent the future father-in-law to the burial and sent away the officials and envoy Zhao Junsheng, who was relieved.

Hua Mulan didn't take much rest these days, Zhao Junsheng was worried that her body would not be able to bear it, so she put down the work in hand and rested at home for a few days, accompanied her mother-in-law and handed over the work to the people below.

That evening, Zhao Junsheng had just left the barracks after training with [-] recruits, and was about to return to the city. His brother-in-law ran over on horseback.

Zhao Junsheng asked: "Xiaoxiong, why did you come here!"

"Brother-in-law, my aunt asked me to come over and ask you to have dinner!"

Zhao Junsheng was in a happy mood and said with a smile: "Don't say it's better to have a mother-in-law, let's go!"

On the way back to the city, Zhao Junsheng was thinking that when his future mother-in-law called him over, it must be about the marriage. After all, his and Hua Mulan's wedding was delayed because of Hua Hu's funeral.

After entering Huafu, Hua Yuan and Hua Mulan are waiting in the dining hall, and there are two maidservants and two servants in the dining hall.

"I've met my uncle!" The servant and the maidservants bowed to Zhao Junsheng together.

Zhao Junsheng waved his hands and went forward to salute Hua Yuan: "My son-in-law has seen his mother-in-law!"

"My family don't need to be courteous, let's sit down!"

"Thank you, mother-in-law!" Zhao Junsheng knelt behind a short table.

Hua Yuan raised her hands to the servants and maidservants again and ordered: "Serve the food!"

The maids and servants quickly brought up the food, wine and meat. Zhao Junsheng saw that the low table in front of him was full of wine, meat and fish, while Hua Yuan, Hua Mulan and Hua Xiong's family had vegetarian food on the low table. This made him faintly feel bad.

I just heard Mrs. Hua Yuan say to Zhao Junsheng: "Junsheng, we don't have a good appetite these days, so you don't have to be polite. People who practice martial arts just want to eat wine and meat many times. Let's talk after we finish eating!"

These words made Zhao Junsheng's heart flutter, what did the future mother-in-law come to see him for?No matter how you look at it, there is something wrong with the atmosphere!

With an uneasy heart, Zhao Junsheng finally finished the meal with difficulty and rinsed his mouth with the tea brought by the maid.

Only then did I hear Mrs. Hua Yuan say: "Junsheng, thanks to you for sending someone to handle my husband's funeral, and thanks to you personally leading the troops to rescue our mother and son from the hateful Rouran. I am so grateful to the old family! "

Zhao Junsheng quickly said: "Mother-in-law, if you say this, you will meet outsiders. You just said before eating that you are from your own family and don't talk about the two families. If you have something to say, just say it, my son-in-law is not an outsider!"

"Okay!" Hua Yuanshi nodded, "I asked Xiaoxiong to call you over today because I really want to discuss something with you!"

"Don't dare dare, you are an elder, if you have something to do, you can just give orders, my son-in-law will definitely do it!"

Hua Yuan waved her hand: "No, this matter has something to do with your marriage with Mulan. I still need to ask your opinion!"

"Listen, son-in-law!" Zhao Junsheng immediately sat upright.

"Look, Junsheng, your marriage with Mulan is only a few days away, but at this moment, my mother and son were kidnapped by the Rouran people, which made your father-in-law leave as soon as he said it, and the wedding was also delayed. ..."

Hua Yuan began to cry as she spoke, but fortunately she still remembered to talk about the business, calmed down and continued: "My Hua family is not a rich family, but it is also a loyal and filial family. Mulan is now a general who is appointed by the imperial court. Her reputation is highly valued by the imperial court and the emperor, and her father just passed away so she can't marry right away, which will make people gossip!"

Zhao Junsheng understood, "You mean to postpone the wedding date?"

Mrs. Hua Yuan nodded and said: "Although I have not lived much, I also know that Confucius advocated that a gentleman should observe filial piety for three years after the death of his parents. Now Mulan, as a general of the court, should set an example for officials and people! What I mean is to wait until Mulan I don't know how you would like to marry Mulan after the three-year mourning period."

Hearing these words, Zhao Junsheng felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head!

three years?How many three years are there in life?life's most

These few years are when I am young and most energetic!This is even more true for women.

Before Zhao Junsheng came back to his senses, he heard Hua Yuan continue to say: "Of course, I also know that this is really difficult for you. I have already asked Mulan about delaying you for three years. It is my Hua family who is sorry, and Mulan agrees." What do you think of letting you marry a concubine during this period?"

When Zhao Junsheng heard the word marry a concubine, he shuddered and turned his head to look at Hua Mulan. Seeing her twitching eyelids and eyelashes, it was obvious that her inner activities were very intense.

Take a concubine?What are you kidding?Will there be a better life after this?Zhao Junsheng believed that Hua Mulan must have been forced by Hua Yuan to agree. She dared not go against her mother's wishes, but she dared to let him fail to marry!

Zhao Junsheng hurriedly said: "Your mother-in-law is joking. I, Zhao Junsheng, come from a poor family and are not from a wealthy family. What kind of concubines do you marry? Besides, if everyone married several concubines, wouldn't there be many more bachelors in the world? Since The mother-in-law has already decided to postpone the wedding for three years, and the son-in-law obeys, even if Mulan and I are happy with each other, let alone three years, even 30 years, I can afford to wait!"

Hua Yuan showed a satisfied smile on his face, pointed at Zhao Junsheng and said to Hua Mulan: "Mulan, just say it as a mother, Junsheng still understands righteousness! After you marry him, you should treat him better and don't worry about it." Do you know that if you are a woman who is bragging all day long, you have to obey women's morals, take care of your husband and teach your children, and you are not allowed to bully him?"

The muscles on Zhao Junsheng's face twitched, but he said in his heart, mother-in-law, you have finally said something fair!

Chapter 439

"Let me see you off!" Zhao Junsheng had just walked out of the gate of Huafu when Hua Mulan chased after him with a cloth cloak draped over his shoulders.

Zhao Junsheng, who was about to get on his horse, turned his head and saw Hua Mulan chasing him, handed the horse to Li Bao, and walked slowly towards the guarding mansion side by side with Hua Mulan.
