Mulan Has No Elder Brother

Chapter 34: Better not ask

Views:

It was just dawn. He Mulan, who was dressed in military uniforms, and A Danzhuo, who were also dressed in the same clothes, were still practicing martial arts in the yard. The sound of bang bang bang attracted Hua's father and Hua's younger brother to come and watch. Fang Shi was still washing his face in the room, and he couldn't hear him. The one who stayed clapped and applauded, couldn't sit still, and dropped the things in his hand and stood at the door to watch.

He Mulan promised A Danzhuo that he would teach him swordsmanship, and naturally he taught him everything he knew. A-Danzhuo knew that this was a very rare opportunity. After Hua Mulan was disbanded and returned to the field, it would be more and more difficult to get her guidance, so she practiced even more diligently.

From He Mulan's point of view, A Danzhuo's swordsmanship was very solid, and the most commonly used spear in the army was even more solid, and everyone applauded when a few spears danced.

But probably due to the lack of actual combat, he was a little jerky in changing moves. However, this is a problem that all rookies have. He Mulan believes that with more and more experience, these will gradually become better.

Putting the sword on A Danzhuo's neck again, He Mulan put away the sword and shook her head.

"Azhuo, I suggest you don't use the epee. Even if you use a sword, use a one-handed sword."

Adanzhuo showed a deeply shocked expression.

"Do you think my swordsmanship is too bad?"

"It's not that your swordsmanship is too bad, but if you are determined to develop in the army, it's useless to learn how to use the heavy sword from me." He Mulan put away the rock and explained it to him seriously: "Even if it's me, In the beginning, I didn't use this kind of weapon. The four surrounding countries are mainly leather armor, even the most sophisticated Mingguang armor of the Great Wei can be split with a big sword, and there is no need to use an epee."

"In the era of the Three Kingdoms, weapons and armor were tailored according to the generals' usage habits, so there was a strange sword like the rock. It's just that I happen to be good at strength, which is just right. If you are fighting in the army , ordinary knives and guns are enough."

"Moreover, the epee is troublesome to cast, and it takes a lot of work. If you lose a weapon on the battlefield, there will be no substitute for a suitable hand. On the battlefield, it is a very scary thing to have no suitable weapon. ." Seeing Adanzhuo's sad expression, He Mulan grabbed the wax stick gun in his hand and stabbed it forward.

"Do you know why all the recruits in the army start with marksmanship? And why are most famous generals good at using guns?"

Adanzhuo thought for a while and replied, "Because the gun is relatively long, it is suitable for horse fighting and foot fighting?"

He Guang sat under the steps, and laughed lightly when he heard A Danzhuo's words.

He Mulan heard him laugh, and looked back at him, but didn't say anything more.

Seeing He Guang smiling, A Danzhuo scratched his head.

"Why is He Guang laughing at me? Am I wrong?"

"You're right, but it's not just that." Father Hua who was sitting on the stone bench couldn't help but speak. "Everyone learns guns because guns are cheaper."

ha

A Danzhuo was dumbfounded by such a low-level reason.

"When my daughter went to the expedition, because I still had the weapons of the year, and the family also passed away, she went to join the army in neat armor. But many times, it is normal for recruits to have no weapons or to be damaged due to poor weapons. At this time, the cheapest price is the gun. As long as there is a wooden rod, and then the gun head can be used. And it is very easy for a blacksmith to build a gun head... "

Father Hua smiled and explained. "And most of us Xianbei people are cavalry, and spears are indeed more convenient than weapons such as swords. It's easier to find one if you lose it."

"What if I don't lose my epee?" A Danzhuo was a little unwilling.

"Then you should try to defeat General Hua first." He Guang smiled rudely, "I can guarantee that none of the armament officers in Six Towns and Border Pass have prepared a sword of your type."

Adanzhuo held his sword and thought for a while hesitantly.

"I'll talk about it later. I... I still want to use the heavy sword." He looked up at He Mulan with some unease. "I want to use the same sword as Aunt Hua."

This time, no one can say anything anymore.

It is very difficult for a child at this age to change her mind just by persuasion.

"Since that's the case..." He Mulan raised the "rock". "Just be prepared to accept stricter treatment."

"watch out!"

After practicing swordsmanship, He Mulan followed Little Brother Hua to go to the market. This was the last time to go to the market this winter. From next month, the winter would become very cold, and she would not go out again if there was no major event. So they went to the market this time to bring back a lot of things, and the family even used a pack horse to bring a car to go there.

A Danzhuo and He Guang both expressed their desire to go with him. He Mulan remembered that You Ke had asked her repeatedly before leaving, that he must let this cousin in the family know about the suffering of the people. With the idea of keeping his promise, he agreed.

The two teenagers happily pressed each other's fists to show their congratulations. A-Danzhuo didn't feel right until after arriving with him.

"Hey, are you from Xianbei too?"

Only Xianbei people like to express their excitement by pressing fists against shoulders.

"Ah, many people in my family are from Xianbei." He Guang replied casually, suddenly pointed at He Mulan, widened his eyes and said in horror, "Oh my God! Oh my god! What is General Hua doing!"

He Mulan brought the stone mill from the backyard of her home, and moved a few heavy stone piers, and together they blocked the door of her warehouse tightly.

The grinding table is so big, not to mention the stone benches.

These two children had never seen such a strong person before, they were both so shocked that the hair on the back of their necks stood on end, and A Danzhuo was even more curious to run to the door of the warehouse to pick up a stone pier.

With all his strength, he just lifted a stone pier that was carved out of stone.

"Don't move, what should you do if you break your foot!" He Mulan chased away Adanzhuo like a chicken, and put the stone pier he took down again.

"Aunt Hua, you are..." He thought about it, and there was only one reason. "Anti-thief?"

"It's anti-thief." He Mulan nodded. "Although the rangers here promise not to touch my things, it's hard to keep the wanderers from other places coming. Last time even Lu Shuihu was invited..."

She murmured a little sullenly. "Why doesn't he have such a thing as a silver ticket! It's much safer to replace it with a silver ticket. Only when I came to this broken place did I realize that TV dramas are all deceptive, not to mention silver tickets, even gold and silver are not used. Drop it! It's so annoying to go shopping with a lot of cloth heads every day!"

Yesterday, I needed two feet of cloth to buy a bag of rice, and I needed two feet two today. In addition to carrying a cloth, you must also bring a ruler when you go out.

What kind of stone, fight, rise, I don't know what it is, dear!

Before she passed it, she always thought that the "stone" read the stone of the stone, but only when she passed through it did she realize that it was to read "dan", a stone turned out to be ten liters!

Mulan used to pay her army with food, she would carry it home in sacks, and then find a way to exchange things with others!

If it weren't for her immense strength, seven stone rice would carry dead people every month!

All money is a lie. How stupid is this Xianbei person not to cast money!

He Mulan's dark suspicion must be because they can't settle accounts!

On the way to the market, He Mulan was still thinking about this question in her mind. In order to make sure that Xianbei people could not count unless they had no words, especially the common people, arithmetic might not be much better. She was also idle when she was idle. Begin to ask about Adanzhuo.

"Your mother bought fifteen chickens the day before yesterday, eight chickens yesterday, and twelve chickens were killed today. How many chickens do you have at home now?"

"Hey, Aunt Hua, are you going to buy chicken today?" Monk Adan Zhuo Zhang Er asked her stupidly, confused.

"What kind of chicken do you buy? I just bought the chicken... Oh, why did I follow you? Just tell me how many chickens you will find in the end." He Mulan looked serious.

"Oh... How many chickens did you just say?" Poor Adanzhuo had already fainted.

"I bought fifteen the day before yesterday, eight yesterday, and today the family killed twelve. How many are left now?"

Sitting on the horse, Adanzhuo pulled out the horse's mane and counted fifteen, added eight, and removed twelve. After counting carefully, he exclaimed happily, "Thirteen!"

"Pfft!" The skin on He Guang's face trembled a little. "Big Brother Adan, you'd better count it carefully, don't be too distracted, and treat one as several."

Hearing that, Adanzhuo probably felt that something was wrong, so he lowered his head and started counting again. He Mulan asked this question to the younger brother Hua who was sitting on the carriage again.

Hua Xiaodi sat in the car and took off his shoes. After counting his fingers and toes, his fingers and toes were not enough. When he had an idea, he changed to counting his knuckles. He was also a talent.

He Mulan patted her head and didn't expect them to tell her the answer, she already had the answer in her heart.

Adanzhuo counted two or three times, and Hua Xiaodi's knuckles were all red, and the two of them gave the answer just now.

"Eleven! It's eleven!"

"Ah... It's eleven." He Mulan turned her head and asked about He Guang. "How are you studying?"

"I learned it at home, it's okay." He Guang nodded and looked at He Mulan with expectant eyes.

Just ask me! Just ask me!

Let me show off my arithmetic!

"If that's the case, then I won't test you." He Mulan turned back in frustration.

It seems that it has nothing to do with what ethnicity, but with the level of education.

In a few years, should she invite a scholar to enlighten her little niece Changle

He Guang's expectant eyes stared at He Mulan for a long time, but he was dumbfounded just waiting for He Mulan's words.

What about superiority

D!

He Mulan's Yue Ying was an excellent war horse, and it was impossible for him to "move" along the road with the slow carriage, so he quickly shook his neck impatiently. He Mulan had long been accustomed to the habit of being a proud and charming horse. After saying hello to the two children and younger brother Hua, she galloped on the horse and ran to the old man to walk the horse.

When Yueying Run is comfortable, it will naturally come back. Brother Hua and sister often go to the market together, and drive the carriage to Majiao Bridge in peace.

"Where are we going now?" He Guang felt a little uneasy as he watched Hua Mulan disappear without a trace.

"My sister's horse hasn't been out for a long time, and Yueying doesn't let others ride it, so she's going to walk the horse now." Hua Xiaodi proudly boasted of Yueying. "That's Yueying! Divine Steed Yueying! It was bestowed by His Majesty, and I heard that it is the war horse of His Majesty Yuma Yingwu!"

"Ah, so it's Ying Wu's brother." He Guang nodded clearly. "General Hua is valiant, and he is a perfect match for Yueying."

"You seem to have seen Ying Wu before." A Danzhuo just didn't like He Guang. He was obviously a young boy, but he always put on an adult expression and tone. And every time when Aunt Hua is around, he will change back to what he should be at his age.

It's just that he is an honest person. Although he doesn't like He Guang very much, firstly, they are all guests staying at Hua's house, and secondly, he and He Guang have no friendship. It's also annoying, so I'm just a little uncomfortable in my heart, but I didn't say it out of my mouth.

"I've heard of Ying Wu's name." He Guang showed an innocent and shy smile again. "Leave that aside, Uncle Hua, can I ask you a question?"

"Jun He Xiaolang, you can ask." Brother Hua laughed heartily.

"Excuse me, why did your house build the pigsty and the toilet together? I noticed that the old house is also built in the same way. Is it possible..." This question blocked him for a day and a night. After that, he will not touch such things as pork again.

"Because pig manure and human manure will be left for composting." Brother Hua smiled knowingly. "Are you taken aback by the toilet room in our house? I heard that your Han dignitaries are all serving this at home. Maybe it's not suitable for you?"

He Guang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and his handsome little face also regained its brilliance.

"Ah, it's a bit... but since I've decided to stay, I'll get used to it sooner or later. Besides... uh, wait..."

He Guang thought of something even more terrifying.

"Excuse me, are you composting to grow crops?"

"It's mainly about growing vegetables..." Hua Xiaodi smiled simply, "Our vegetables are all watered with our family's fertilizer, and they grow very well! The cabbage you ate yesterday was poured with good fertilizer. And the radish soup. The vegetables in the field are growing well this year, and I have a lot of stock in the cellar. Don’t worry, even if you can only eat vegetarian food, you can handle it in winter!”

In winter, vegetables are more expensive than meat. So Brother Hua said such words because he wanted An An He Guang's heart.

Pig X and Human X are to be left to comt.

Our dishes are all watered with fertilizers at home.

The cabbage I ate yesterday...

so fat...

Enough for winter...

He Guang's face turned green, and the whole person was not well.
