"It's up to you!" Xu Junze's simple two-word answer made Lin Shuran couldn't help but smile softly. Xu Junze looked at her in surprise. Is there something wrong with his answer?

Lin Shuran felt a little embarrassed by him. He coughed slightly to cover up his embarrassment, and then asked tentatively: "You are a general who leads troops in battle, and the commander-in-chief of an army. When others ask you for your opinion, you don't often

Is this the answer?!"

From the first night of their wedding, in fact, what impressed Lin Shuran the most about Xu Junze was not his handsome appearance and cold and arrogant personality, but the two words "as you want". It seemed that every time he said these two words to her

, the feelings are all different.

"Of course not!" He holds military power and is concerned about the safety of the emperor and the country. How could he easily hand over the decision-making power to others? It's just that public is public and private is private. He actually doesn't know how to get along with Lin Shuran, his wife. Although

Both the Queen Mother and the Emperor once told him some ways of getting along with men and women, but he felt it was too troublesome. Instead of focusing on how to get along with a woman, it would be better to just follow her wishes and both of them would be comfortable.

, "You are my wife, so of course you have the final say in household matters. I don't have any objections!"

Although it is not allowed that Junze really respects her and is too lazy to care about these things, Lin Shuran thinks this is good. At least he is not macho and does not allow her to do this or that. However, she still hopes that he will educate her children.

You can also participate in it.

"Since you said that, I will ask Xu An to go to the Zhenguo Palace in person and tell them that our young master will also lead a team to participate in the Cuju party and let them make arrangements." Lin Shuran said with a smile.

After finishing, he looked at Xu Junze expectantly and asked, "If you have nothing to do that day, can you go with us? If Brother Chen and the others see that you are also there, they will definitely be very happy!"

"You go!" Xu Junze didn't like banquets. He would rather train soldiers alone in the military camp.

Hearing this answer, Lin Shuran was somewhat disappointed, but she could also understand Xu Junze. After all, he was only twenty-four years old. Although he was not very young in ancient times, in modern times, he was just a hot-blooded and masculine young man.

, doesn’t know how to be a father of thirteen children.

Later, Lin Shuran told Xu Junze that she wanted to send potted flowers to the Queen Mother, and Xu Junze promised to help her deliver them to the Queen Mother when she entered the palace.

Soon, the Duke of Zhen Guo received news that Xu Junze's stepsons would come to participate in the Cuju party. Duke Lei Yi and his wife Yang were both surprised. In previous years, the Xu family refused to participate.

This kind of banquet.

When various government offices in the capital heard that Lin Shuran was going to take her stepsons to participate in the Cuju competition and lead a team in the competition, everyone had different reactions. It turned out that the family would be different now that they had a mistress.

The seventh day of the Lunar New Year arrived in a blink of an eye. The weather was excellent on this day, the sun was warm, and even the cold winter air was warmed up a bit.

Early in the morning, Xu Mingchen and the others were dressed neatly and energetically waiting for Lin Shuran to set off. In order to participate in the Cuju party at the Zhenguo Palace, Lin Shuran also prepared team uniforms and suitable leather boots for them. Of course, she also took enough

A large amount of money cannot let the dignified General's mansion look too downgraded.

"Mom, is father going today?" Xu Mingchen asked after greeting Lin Shuran.

"Your father may have something to do in the army today. He went out early in the morning!" Although Xu Junze lived with her every night these days, the two of them still slept separately at night, and Xu Junze often left home before dawn.

Seeing that Xu Mingchen was a little disappointed, she smiled and encouraged, "It doesn't matter if your father doesn't go. You don't have to be afraid when the time comes. I will support you. Enjoy your game. Don't just think about winning or losing. This is just going.

Play!"

Lin Shuran didn't want them to have too much pressure. Xu Mingye was also clamoring to go, but he could just get out of bed and walk a few steps and it was really not suitable to go out, so besides him and the three youngest, she had the remaining nine children.

He took them to the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion, plus Dazhu and the others who were competing with him, as well as the maids and servants who followed him, there were actually four carriages filled with them.

When the carriage arrived in front of the gate of the Zhenguo Palace, which was specially used to hold Cuju parties, Lin Shuran led her stepsons out of the carriage. This scene attracted the attention of many people.

"Huh, this Lin Shuran is not afraid of embarrassment. A newly married bride leads so many children out in a grand manner and makes herself look embarrassed. Look at her, she looks quite happy to be a stepmother!" Not far away, a man who had just got off the carriage was looking at her.

The young woman was being carefully supported by the maid and mother-in-law. She glanced angrily in the direction of Lin Shuran, her eyes almost rolled to the sky, and her tone of voice was sour.

"She is just the daughter of the Grand Tutor, how can she compare with you, young lady? You are the legitimate daughter of the Duke's Palace, and now you are the concubine of Prince Ling's Palace. Fortunately, you did not marry General Xu at the beginning!" The maid on the side was flattering.

said with a smile.

Qi Rou'er seemed to be very satisfied with what the maid said. As the second daughter of Qin Guogong Qi Congming, she always thought very highly of herself. She thought she was more beautiful than her sister Li Fei in the palace. However, Xu Junze, who was ignorant, actually looked at her.

Not as good as her, huh, now she is married to Prince Ling's crown prince. Although she is only a side concubine, in the palace she is more popular with her mother-in-law than the crown prince's concubine, and her status is higher than Lin Shuran's.

"As a concubine of the palace, you should not lower yourself to that kind of woman and seduce men before you get married, so that others don't know that there is one lying next to her and she is still thinking about the other!" At this time, a man

An obviously disdainful voice sounded from behind Qi Rou'er. She turned around in surprise and saw Xiao Chen's wife Su Wanwan.

Qi Rou'er pursed her lips and smiled. Who in the whole capital didn't know that Su Wanwan went up a pole to marry Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen married her only after the Lin family failed to propose. A few days ago, I heard that Lin Shuran was injured, so Xiao Chen rushed to the big house.

In the General's Mansion, it's natural that Su Wanwan doesn't like Lin Shuran.

Although Su Wanwan is only the wife of the minister, according to her seniority, Qi Rou'er has to call her little aunt. After all, her father-in-law, Prince Ling, is the late-born son of Concubine Su, and Su Wanwan is Concubine Su's niece.

"That's what my little aunt said!" Qi Rouer smiled and entered the courtyard with Su Wanwan.

Lin Shuran never minded the strange looks from others, and she pretended not to hear the comments of the people around her. It was just that children were simple-minded. Xu Minghao originally cared about the looks of people around them, but now he found that everyone was pointing fingers at their family.

He looked a little angry.

"What are you looking at? We are not monkeys!" He muttered angrily.

Lin Shuran patted his shoulder softly and laughed in a low voice: "Let others look if they want to. If we care about other people's eyes all the time, we will become unable to walk, talk, and even worse."

You don’t look like yourself anymore. If you let them see you openly and go your own way in an upright manner, will you lose a piece of flesh?"
