The summer is scorching, but the weather is somewhat relieved in the mountains.

Looking at Shen Wantang's back walking in front, Cen Xiao frowned slightly, waved the reins and walked forward.

Then he threw the kettle at hand over to him: "The weather is hot, drink more water. Don't worry, I haven't used this kettle yet."

I looked down and saw that it was indeed unused - after all, only women would use this style.

Shen Wantang looked sideways and saw another kettle hanging on the horse. She thought that this kettle was specially prepared by Cen Xiao for her.

She hid the trace of emotion in her eyes and nodded: "Thank you."

"Your brother-in-law is really amazing. He looks like a scholar, but his kung fu is really amazing." Looking at Ma Jiwen's back in the front, Cen Xiao curled his lips and spoke with a hint of meaning.

"Your family is really full of talented people." Cen Xiao raised his eyebrows and said something ambiguous.

Shen Wantang glanced at him coldly, but her uneasiness grew.

"Uncle doesn't know he's here Xia Miao."

She frowned and expressed her worries.

do not know?

There was a flash of uneasiness in Cen Xiao's eyes, the same as Shen Wantang's.

"I went to tell my uncle yesterday, but he didn't seem to know that Xia Miao had come. Even my sister didn't know."

Shen Wantang spoke in a heavy tone, lowering his voice.

"I don't know what his purpose is in coming here this time. I can only tell you to be careful." Shen Wantang sighed and frowned.

Even if Shen Wantang didn't say this, Cen Xiao understood it in his heart.

But when these words came out of Shen Wantang's mouth, he couldn't help but think more about it.

He raised his eyebrows, his tone was quite ambiguous: "Miss Shen, are you concerned about me when you say this?"

In such a dangerous environment, Cen Xiao could still say such words. Shen Wantang looked cold and glared at him fiercely: "Your death has nothing to do with me."

As she finished her words, she pulled the reins, the horse quickened its pace, and moved forward.

Cen Xiao also followed closely, his body rising and falling with the horse, and imitated her tone and said leisurely: "My death has nothing to do with you~"

It was not until the afternoon that we finally reached the forest.

No one had ever come to this forest to harvest summer seedlings in previous years, and Cen Xiao was the first military commander to come here.

However, he had also made preparations in advance. He went to a flat place that had been explored in advance, and the soldiers stopped and then began to set up camp.

After a few days of training, in just half an hour, a group of tents appeared in the mountains and forests in an orderly manner.

"Miss Shen came suddenly, and I'm afraid the tents may not be enough. If you don't mind, you can go to Pei Qing's tent." Cen Xiao let out a long sigh and spoke softly.

But Pei Qing on the side was anxious: "Master, what about me?"

Cen Xiao had no expression on his face. He pointed coldly at Wu Qing's tent not far away and said, "Sleep with him."

As soon as the words were spoken, one family was happy while the other was sad.

Pei Qing's eyes were slightly red, and he felt aggrieved in his heart, but due to his status, he was unable to express his grievances.

But Wu Qing on the side was very happy. He rushed forward and packed Pei Qing's things without saying a word. The smile on his face never disappeared: "General Pei, let's go. I'll let you sleep on my big bed!"

Since this is the case, Pei Qing can only grit his teeth and swallow it.

No wonder when setting up the tent just now, Cen Xiao specifically told himself to set up the tent closer to him. Unexpectedly, this was his plan!

Shen Wantang thanked him and then went aside.

"We are going to train tonight. Does Miss Shen want to join us?" Cen Xiao followed Shen Wantang to the tent.

Shen Wantang put the clothes in the bag aside and said coldly: "Since Xia Miao is here, we should come together. Besides, I have never missed the night training before."

Cen Xiao's eyes never left Shen Wantang, and the admiration in his eyes became more and more obvious.

"General, all the soldiers have assembled." Pei Qing's voice came from outside.

Cen Xiao came back to his senses, then walked out with big strides.

In just a moment, all the soldiers in the camp had started training.

As soon as Shen Wantang came out, her eyes met with Ma Jiwen's not far away.

His eyes were a little evasive, but Shen Wantang faced him head-on.

"Brother-in-law, it's a real surprise to see you in the military camp today." Shen Wantang forced a smile.

Ma Jiwen managed to put on a polite smile: "I am also very surprised to see my aunt's sister here."

After saying this, Ma Jiwen pretended to be busy, turned around and was about to leave.

But how could Shen Wantang let him go so easily?

"I heard that my brother-in-law is a top scholar, so he must be very talented in literature. Now it seems that he is also very good at martial arts. Big sister is so lucky to have a husband who is both talented in literature and martial arts."

Shen Wantang followed Ma Jiwen closely, talking non-stop.

Maybe because he felt guilty, but Ma Jiwen's pace quickened unconsciously.

"My dear aunt, you are too kind. You are not a master of both civil and military skills. You only have some mediocre skills."

How could someone who could beat Pei Qing have only mediocre kung fu?

In other words, how could someone who could beat Pei Qing not be able to defeat some bandits?

After asking this question, Shen Wantang became even more confused and suspicious.

"A few days ago, I went boating and heard a lot of legends and stories between my sister and brother-in-law." Shen Wantang continued to ask, his eyes never leaving Ma Jiwen, watching his every move.

After he finished speaking, Ma Jiwen suddenly stopped and looked at Shen Wantang with a sinister look: "I'm afraid what my aunt heard is not a legend, but some kind of gossip, right?"

Seeing that Ma Jiwen wanted to say something, Shen Wantang did not speak.

"Those rumors have already hurt Tao'er. Auntie, just listen to them and don't take them to heart. And don't tell Tao'er about them. She's not in good health and can't stand hearing them."

As he spoke, tears welled up in Ma Jiwen's eyes.

"Rumors are just rumors, they are not true. If your aunt believes them, it will really chill your sister's heart."

As he spoke, Ma Jiwen raised his eyes, and his gloomy look suddenly became pitiful, and his voice softened a bit: "Father-in-law is helpless about this matter. We can't just shut up the people, right?"

If a person with a weak mind saw such a look, he would feel pity for him at a glance, apologize for what he had just said, and even want to kneel down and kowtow.

Shen Wantang just stood aside and looked at this dramatic man.

"Tao'er has already suffered a lot because of this matter. She even had a miscarriage because of this. Don't make her sad anymore. Aunt sister, just think of it as me begging you, okay?"
