Chapter 1087
1087 Chapter 1087-Gu Yuan
Cai Xiaolian was indeed frightened.
On the first day of the new year, grandma Xiao finally managed to put her to sleep. However, she became more and more flustered after not hearing from Gu Nian for three consecutive days.
On the fifth day of the new year, she acted up.
She had been pregnant at the beginning of the winter month. According to her own calculations and grandma Xiao’s prediction, the child should have been born at the end of July and the beginning of August. However, because of her concern, Cai Xiaolian’s mood was unstable, and she was overly worried, so she had an early attack.
Fortunately, with Gu Xin’s Jade Pearl, she was only in pain for two hours before the baby was born.
It was a son, the eighth grandson in the Gu family.
Cai Xiaolian decided on her own and gave her son a name, Yuan, Gu Yuan. She hoped that her husband and two daughters could return safely.
With this, the children of the Gu family’s grandchildren would have to be thoughtful.
On Gu shouxin’s side, he still didn’t know that his son had already come out early like Ren Ren. He was discussing the attack plan with Xue qianxun.
He could not take this lying down.
Kidnapping his daughter for no reason, it would be strange if he didn’t destroy the southern border.
Therefore, he brought out all the combat experience he had in his previous life.
When he was nine thousand years old in his previous life, he did not like civil officials, but he liked military generals.
Without a general to guard the borders, could he control those pedantic civil officials in the court?
Moreover, he had personally gone on an expedition. To him, fighting a war was much easier than being a local official.
Xue Qianyu’s eyes brightened as he listened. He thought to himself, ” second uncle, you must have read a lot of military books, but most importantly, they’re not just theoretical.
The two of them hit it off immediately. After confirming the plan, Xue Qianyu immediately sent someone to send a letter to Lu Zheng.
They were just waiting for the big attack on the 7th of July.
……
On the night of the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, after Xue qianxun and his men returned from their patrol at Lin mountain, they passed by a stream and saw fireflies flying in the sky.
He sent someone back to the camp to bring him some things, and then he got off the horse and went to the stream alone.
Under the light of the fireflies, he could see all kinds of wildflowers by the small ditch.
He squatted down and began to pick the flowers. The flowers he picked were all in perfect bloom and were especially beautiful.
White, red, yellow, and purple. There was a huge pile of them.
He sat on a rock and arranged the flowers. He then added some green leaves and picked a few blades of grass to tie the flowers together.
He looked at the flowers in his hand and laughed.
He had never thought that he would be so meticulous in handling flowers one day. He usually rode around and didn’t even notice the flowers and plants on the roadside!
It looked pretty wrapped up like this.
Gu Nian would probably like it!
When he had accompanied Empress Jiang in the village, he had followed her to the manor at the back of the mountain several times. He had seen the Gu sisters often pick flowers and wrap them up like this, regardless of whether they were planted by their own family or the wildflowers on the way back from the manor.
While he was lost in his thoughts, he heard the sound of horse hooves. It was his men.
Xue qianxun deftly wrapped the flower in oilpaper and wrapped it with her own blue hair band. Then, she put the flower on the horse’s back and turned around to catch the fireflies.
When Xue Qianyu returned to the camp, Gu Xin, Gu Hui, and Princess Jinghe were walking out of Gu shouxin’s tent.
The three girls looked at the item in Xue Qianyu’s hand and smiled maliciously. The princess said, ” “General Xue, I quite like fireflies. Are you giving them to me?”
Gu Xin,’second brother Xue, the flowers in your hands are so beautiful! Is it for me?”
“General Xue, I thought that the box in your hand was quite exquisite. I kind of want it.”
