9 Do nothing without teaching

In Anyi, Hedong, the backyard of the General's Mansion.

As a eldest wife, Pei Shu, accompanied by her maid, was about to give gifts to the new Hedong prefect Zheng Hun in the court office.

Her figure is a little plump than before giving birth. She looks like a woman's bun and carefully reminds the servant who gives gifts and says:

"You have already prepared twenty pieces of silk and silk in the mansion, six pieces of household items, and some clothes worn by children. You must carefully send them to the backyard of the county government and hand them over to Mrs. Zheng, which means that they were sent by the general's mansion."

The servant stood, and the maid responded quickly and agreed.

Pei Shu nodded with satisfaction and waved her hand to let them all go down to do business.

After the servant who gave the gift left, the maid who followed Pei Shu turned her eyes and looked at Pei Shu with a little confusion and asked:

"My lady, this Zheng Mansion is valued by the general and can only take office as a member of Hedong. But I haven't seen him visiting the woman these days, why do I send gifts in the mansion?"

This maid was an old man from the Pei family. She has always been serving Pei Shu's daily life and food. She is even more loyal to Pei Shu and is capable of doing things. She is already considered Pei Shu's caring maid.

Pei Shu was not angry about the maid's confusion. She stretched out her onion finger and gently tapped the maid's forehead, and said with a smile:

"You, don't talk nonsense. Zhengfu Jun is a county general of two thousand stones. Why did he come to visit me, a wife? The gifts in the mansion were not given to me, but instead of the general. Zhengfu Jun Yun is a civil and military official, and is honest in office. He went to Hedong to be loyal to the king's affairs, but he inevitably took care of his wife and children at home."

"After I moved out of the backyard of the county government, there was no one else there, and there was inevitably a lack of household items. In addition, Zheng Fujun took office and did not bring these items. The purchases were mostly crude. As a housewife, I was in charge of the inner house and naturally had to think about the general outside. How could I let the wife and children of Zheng Fujun, who were under the general's command, still have to wear a coarse cloth and brown clothes when they arrived at Hedong County Government, and lost the face of Zheng Fujun."

"Hehe, I have little knowledge, but the queen is thoughtful!"

Listening to the maid's respectful praise, Pei Shu smiled.

Since she married Yan Xing, she could naturally understand the thoughts of her husband Yan Xing. After Yan Xing took over Hedong, Wenxi, the Wenxi Pei family, who clearly supported Yan Xing, also rose. Her brothers, the young talents of the Pei family were all valued, but Pei Shu, as a housewife, knew very well how to deal with things.

She knew that Yan Xing would not like to interfere in political affairs, so she always only focused on inner-house affairs, and would not criticize Hedong's military and political decisions through her own brothers.

But there are some things you still have to do.

The best is like water, and no one in the world is softer than water, and no one who attacks the strong can win. This is gentleness. Because of its non-existence, it can enter between nothingness. From this we can see that the teaching of indecision is beneficial to inaction.

Since Yan Xing recovered the Guanzhong area, the distribution of civil and military affairs in the General's Mansion has undergone obvious changes.

In the past, under Yan Xing's command, the largest military proportion was the soldiers from Kansai, and the political affairs were the ones who relied on a group of civil officials from Sanhe, especially those who began to follow him in Hedong.

However, after the recovery of Guanzhong, Yan Xing recruited a large number of talents from the three auxiliary personnel, and there were many civil officials and counselors. This obviously changing situation urgently needed a series of subtle dispatches to balance.

The candidate for the Hedong Prefect is one of these subtleties.

Yan Su was transferred to Jingzhao County. The vacant Hedong prefect needed a suitable person with the ability, reputation, family reputation, character, and hometown to take over the successor.

Just right, Zheng Hun met the above conditions.

So whether it is for his husband, for his parents' family, or simply for himself, Pei Shu must care for Zheng Hun's wife and children very much.

Some things do not need to be covered at all, and it is best to be tacit.

What Pei Shu wants to do is just like the spring rain in March, moistening things silently. It seems that there is nowhere to be found, but in fact, she can be missing!

"Female, Female, Personal Guard report, the general is coming back!"

A maid trotted to the place where Pei Shu is in the backyard. Before she could get close, she had already told Pei Shu about the good news with a happy voice.

When Pei Shu heard this, she couldn't help but smile. She turned her head and said to the maid beside her with joy:

"Please sort it out and notify the others in the backyard quickly and follow me to welcome the general outside the mansion!"

"promise."

Yan Xing arrived a day earlier than the established itinerary. The maid who was ordered quickly turned around and left. Pei Shu was also overjoyed at this time. She quickly calmed her excitement in her heart and subconsciously reached out to support her cloud-haired temples.

After she got married to Yan Xing, Hedong's foundation grew stronger and stronger, but the couple became less and less together. Yan Xing not only fought outside all year round, but also occasionally brought back some strange women from outside.

As a housewife, Pei Shu was definitely self-deception, but she still believed that Yan Xing's love for her was not less than when she got married.

Last year, Yan Xing traveled around the world and went to the two places, and even reached the point where he was unable to enter the house. The communication between the couple could only be conveyed through letters.

Later, Yan Xing's letter sent back from the army was even more busy writing. Although Yan Xing never talked about military affairs and wars in the letter, he talked about different scenery and family affairs during the military journey, the sloppy calligraphy inevitably made the sound of golden swords and iron horses dilute the couple's feelings of mutual communication.

Now, the man who has been a veteran for many years has come back early. When he thought about this, Pei Shu couldn't help but smile again, and her whole heart warmed up.

Since Yan Xing came back in advance, he must use his most beautiful side to meet his husband.

Pei Shu thought to herself in her heart.

···

Outside the General of the Cavalry.

Facts have proved that women are tolerating those who please themselves, almost all the wives and concubines of Yan Xing think so.

When Yan Xing kicked off his horse and saw his wife and concubine who were dressed up and fighting for beauty like peach blossoms, he couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed while being happy.

He didn't know how to praise for a moment.

Although the government orders in Hedong have always been frugal, Yan Xing also asked his wives, concubines and children to set an example, and Pei Shu, as a housewife, did not focus on embroidery and weaved cloth by herself, but this is still very different from advocating the hard life.

The wives and concubines of General Cavalry cannot even want the honor and manners they should have in order to pursue frugality.

Fortunately, the son who cried endlessly because of waiting for me soon broke the awkward atmosphere. Yan Xing hurriedly came forward with a smile and hugged his son one by one.

From the maid's arms, he took the eldest son Yan Tong, who was still in his infancy. This son, who looked like Yan Xing's thick eyebrows and big eyes, flexibly turned his round eyes. Looking at the strange and familiar man in front of him, his crying stopped soon.

Yan Feng, who was personally held in June, was more like a little demon king. Although he cried endlessly, when he saw Yan Xing, he couldn't help but want to reach out his little hand to grab it, which made everyone around him giggle.

The son Yan Shuo, born to Zhang Rui, was the oldest of his three sons, but when he was held in Yan Xing's arms, he cried louder. While crying and making a fuss, he almost urinated Yan Xing all over, which made Yan Xing smile bitterly and handed him over to the maid who hurriedly came forward to serve him.

In addition, among the girls, Yan Wan and Aqige were also among them.

Yan Wan's age is already past the normal age of getting married now, but she is also worried at all. She still has a girl's bun on her head. Although she knows that Yan Xing may be coming back this time to hold and host the wedding for her and Yang Feng.

Aqige has the common red cheeks and slightly rough eyebrows and eyebrows of grassland women. At this time, he was looking at Yan Xing carelessly. Unlike other women who were happy, her eyes were still clear, as if she was looking at a guest who rushed to the door of her felt tent from afar.

Yan Xing was almost surrounded by this group of women and walked into the backyard of the mansion.

Next, the whole family talked and had a meal in the back hall. It was not until Yan Xing was tired and was about to get up to rest that these women were still happy to salute the head and the daughter of the family, and they all returned to their own yard.

As usual, Yan Xing went to Pei Shu's dormitory.

In the dormitory, Pei Shu stood in front of the mirror, slowly took off the headdress on her clouds, and asked softly to Yan Xing in the mirror.

"I heard from the personal guards who were in Chen Cang that my husband was tired and ill. Why did he still get so anxious to return home this time?"

Yan Xing smiled and walked towards his beautiful wife. He hugged her from behind, lowered his head and face and gently rubbed her.

"I miss home, miss you, and our children."

Pei Shu laughed when she heard this. She stopped her movements, reached out and held Yan Xing's big hand on her waist, closed her eyes slightly, and felt the long-lost tenderness of her husband.

"My husband has lost weight. It seems that he has not been doing well in Guanzhong these days."

"There are so many soldiers and the days of troubled times are the same everywhere."

Yan Xing's face slowly raised, leaving Pei Shu's smooth face, and he whispered in his wife's ear:

"This time I'm rushing back. In addition to hosting my younger sister's marriage, I also kept Wen Chong with Sanfu. I want him to have some experience in his job."

"Oh. The marriage between General Yang and his sister-in-law must be handled well. If Wen Chong can be tempered and grown outside, it would be better for him."

Yan Xing felt his wife's hand that was about to move. He turned around and held Pei Shu's hand and patted it gently.

"Will you stay at home longer when you come back this trip?"

Faced with Pei Shu's question, Yan Xing did not answer so quickly this time.

Yuan Shao's intention to increase his troops in Hanoi was unknown. If the battle between the two sides started again, although he could take control of Hedong, the fighter's opportunity was fleeting and he could not make a decision at the moment, so he would inevitably lose the opportunity.

Yuan Shao from Hebei is like a huge giant beast. When Yan Xing, a experienced hunter, confronted him, he had to be energetic. If he was not careful, he would be swallowed by his bloody mouth.

Yan Xing will definitely come to Hanoi to command the battle when he arrives.

In this clip of Yan Xing's silence, Pei Shu waited quietly and never disrupted Yan Xing's ideas.

But she opened her eyes again, looking at Yan Xing's familiar face flashed through the bronze mirror.

"You don't have to worry, I'll stay at home for a little longer this time."

Yan Xing pulled out of his thoughts. He smiled and said softly, while holding Pei Shu's hand and hugging his wife tightly.
