"After so many years, Long Live Master is still so afraid of war. He was slapped in front of his face again and again, and he was able to endure it one by one. He is really not a mortal." Zhou Chi took a sip of tea and sneered, " The general is really good-natured. If it were me, I would have kicked him out of the throne early, why would I have to wait all these years? "
"The general is a filial son, can he be like you?" Zhou Ran glanced at Zhou Chi.
Zhou Chi said with a smile: "Eldest sister, we have not had parents since we were young. Brother, I have always treated you as my own mother to be filial to you. What's wrong? Could it be that eldest sister has not felt my filial piety towards you all these years?" ?"
"Bah! You're grinning all over again," Zhou Ran spat at Zhou Chi, while reaching out to add another bowl of rice to Zhou Chi, "If you drink another bowl, your appetite will become smaller before the season changes."
"Yes, I'm in a good mood today, so I naturally have to eat with an open appetite." Zhou Chi took the rice bowl and ate a chopstick of food. He suddenly raised his head and said to Zhou Ran, "By the way, where is my brother-in-law? Why have you been so busy these two days?" Haven’t you seen your brother-in-law?”
Zhou Ran paused for a moment before picking up another chopstick of sour bamboo shoots and said softly: "I always want to eat sour bamboo shoots these days, but the sour bamboo shoots bought in the city never taste good to my taste. He said he was going back to his hometown. Bring me a jar of sour bamboo shoots from my hometown, I guess I’ll be back today.”
Zhou Ran's husband is called Liu Changsheng, a local from Guangxi. His hometown is in Guilin, not far or close to the governor's office, but it takes at least three or four days to go back and forth.
Liu Changsheng used to be a low-ranking general on the Southern Xinjiang front line. He was in charge of hundreds of soldiers. Back then, Liu Changsheng had always admired the heroic Zhou Ran. However, Liu Changsheng had an ordinary appearance and was honestly not outstanding. So Zhou Ran didn't take him seriously at that time.
Later, Hue was defeated and Lu Zhishan was injured and returned to the capital. Zhou Ran didn't want to stay in the army anymore, so he came to Guangxi to join Zhou Chi. Later, when he had nothing to do, he trained a women's army in Guangxi. The people of Xinjiang are bold and unruly, and the women are also very straightforward. It is common to go into battle to kill the enemy. In addition, this women's army is directly subordinate to the governor's office of Guangxi, and the salary is guaranteed. There are actually 5,000 women who come to sign up to join the army. Later, under Zhou Ran's careful selection, a thousand people were left behind. Although there were few people, their combat effectiveness was not inferior to that of the male soldiers.
Unexpectedly, when Liu Changsheng heard about Zhou Ran, he gave up his military rank without saying a word and came to Guangxi Governor's Yamen to work as a district servant. Zhou Chi was grateful for Liu Changsheng's deep affection and worked hard to connect the two of them, but Zhou Chi Ran didn't have any thoughts in this regard, and Zhou Chi couldn't force him. However, Liu Changsheng was cheerful and not in a hurry. He seemed to be satisfied if he could see Zhou Ran all the time. He even believed in gods and Buddhas for a time. It seemed that he had made up his mind that he would not marry anyone but Zhou Ran in this life. It was not until the second year of Lu Zhishan and Mu Nanzhi's wedding that Zhou Ran finally nodded, and Liu Changsheng finally embraced the beauty.
Liu Changsheng is now a member of the Sixth Grade Riding School. His official position is not high, but he is in the governor's office. Liu Changsheng does not have any great ambitions. He is very satisfied with being able to see his wife day and night.
Zhou Chi couldn't help but sigh: "Although my brother-in-law is dull and hard to talk to, he is really good to you. You have such a big temper and are good at dancing with guns and sticks, but in all these years, I have never seen him with you." You blushed, elder sister, you have to change your temper."
Zhou Ran didn't say anything. He lowered his head and ate all the pieces of meat in the bowl. Then he said softly, "If you don't change anything, you will be left alone for the rest of your life."
