Chapter 116: Half Earned by Oneself, Half by Others (Part 1)

Although Huan Yu raised his hand, he made no next move, but Xiao Bi still subconsciously dodged to the side.

What bothers her most is when others slap her on the forehead, but her brothers-in-law and brothers all have this problem.

The second brother Huan's movements are so skillful, eighty percent of them were practiced on Huan San's forehead.

But Xiao Bi had so much to say at the moment that she didn't bother to worry about this little thing.

"After this news spreads, there will be many people who want to marry the girl to the uncle.

Could it be that he thought those people were troublesome, so he grew a big beard?"

Huan Yu slowly retracted his hand: "To most people, a man who is generous is naturally very attractive. But this is not the only thing that really brings trouble to my uncle."

Xiao Bi frowned and thought for a while.

Apart from power and money, Uncle Yuchi actually has qualities that can bring him trouble?

Tall figure?

A heroic temperament?

Or with one against a hundred martial arts?

Huan Yu never thought that one day he would discuss Uncle Yuchi's appearance with a girl behind his back.

Now that the matter has reached this level of discussion, it is absolutely impossible to stop it.

He patiently guided Xiao Bi's thoughts: "Although Xiaojiu has not been with my uncle for a long time, have you really not noticed his appearance at all?"

"You mean..." Xiao Bi tried hard to remember.

But no matter what she thought, the thing that impressed her most was still the unusually thick beard.

"That's right!" She suddenly laughed happily: "Uncle's eyes are big and bright. When he smiles, he feels very warm. When he doesn't smile, he is as sharp as an eagle."

Huan Yu smiled and said, "My little uncle has more than just good-looking eyes."

"Oh?" Xiao Bi's voice rose: "You mean, uncle is not only tall, but also has an outstanding appearance?"

"Yes, there are few people in the army who can compare with him."

A smirk appeared on Xiao Bi's lips: "What if you compare it with Brother Huan?"

"This..." Huan Yu was a little embarrassed: "My uncle and I have different looks, so it's not easy to compare..."

"Alas -" Xiao Bi sighed with pretense of regret: "If I had known that uncle was a handsome man earlier, I would have found a way to get rid of his big beard."

"You must not... my uncle is usually the most talkative, but if anyone dares to touch his beard, he will definitely fall out."

Although he knew Xiao Bi was joking, Huan Yu couldn't help but remind her a few words.

"It's so serious..." Xiao Bi turned her head and looked at him: "Brother Huan, do you think that if I meet a girl I like, will I take the initiative to shave off my beard?"

Huan Yu laughed: "How do I know this?"

Seeing Xiao Bi looking at him without blinking, he could only add: "Probably... yes, as you just said, with such a big beard, the girl must have thought he had a son.

Already."

"The answer is not straightforward at all. It seems that like Xiao Wu, you should also get some playbooks of Hua Qian Yue Xia to ponder over it."

"Xiaojiu is so vindictive?"

"Humph!" Xiao Bi turned her head: "You two are both virtuous. If you fall in love with a girl in the future, you probably won't be able to say a word of love, let alone write any love poems or letters.

It's not too late to make amends for the situation. Look for some playbooks to read, maybe there's still hope."

Huan Yu almost burst into tears laughing.

He had to admit that chatting with Xiao Bi could quickly improve his depressed mood.

"Xiaojiu, don't you want to know why I want to leave Hedong County as soon as possible?"

"I think so! But you didn't want to say it just now."

"It's not that I don't want to say it, it's that I don't know how to tell you.

What would you think if I told you that my grandfather had already laid out all the plans to capture Liang Ruoru, and even communicated with your grandfather?"

Xiao Bi paused: "You mean, our trip was in vain?"

Huan Yu nodded: "In other words, the big drama has been arranged for a long time, and the two of us are just playing second-guessing at best.

To put it bluntly, the extras don’t even have to run away, they are actually just here to watch the show.”

Contrary to his expectation, Xiao Bi was not only not angry, but even chuckled.

"So what, going to the theater is better than staying in Beijing to listen to the opera.

Besides, Liang Ruoru hasn't been arrested yet, so how do you know that we are destined to watch the show?

If you are lucky enough, there is still a chance to turn the supporting actor into the protagonist.

It’s not like Brother Huan to be discouraged as soon as things started.”

Huan Yu's heart moved slightly.

This is certainly not his style, but Xiaojiu has always been proud, would he be willing to make wedding clothes for others?

"Xiaojiu, I thought you would find this too boring."

"How could..." Xiao Bi raised her eyebrows: "The purpose of our trip is to find out Liuyun Kingdom's conspiracy and capture Liang Ruoru.

As long as the goal is achieved, it doesn't matter whether the process is thrilling or not."

She really couldn't understand Huan Yu.

A person with such a cold personality actually likes to play exciting games?

"That's not what I meant..."

Huan Yu took a deep breath and told his grandfather's plan.

Xiao Bi's reaction once again exceeded his expectations.

"I thought it was a big deal. The old county man wants to promote you to a higher position. Isn't this normal?

The old man used so many people to carefully lay such a large net for Liang Ruoru. If he didn't praise his favorite grandson, how could he praise others?

Brother Huan, you are so smart, how come you can't even understand such a simple truth, and you dare to say that you are not pedantic..."

She took a few steps forward slowly with her hands behind her back, and then walked back slowly after a while.

Huan Yu said helplessly: "It's really not pedantic."

Xiao Bi gritted his teeth and said: "Why don't you be pedantic? From ancient times to the present, no matter in the world or in the court, which hero has not earned half by himself and half by the praise of others?

Take me for example. I won every hunting competition last autumn. Do you really think that my riding and shooting skills are the best in the world?"

Huan Yu's thin lips moved.

He didn't know whether Xiao Jiu was the best in the world in horseback shooting, but among those who participated in the autumn hunt, she was definitely hard to find a match for.

Xiao Bi said again: "That's because my brother-in-law intends to flatter me. Who else dares to compete with me?

Of course, it’s not enough to just rely on others’ praise, you also have to live up to your expectations.

Although the prey in the royal hunting grounds are tame, they are not easy to shoot."

"Xiao Jiu is too modest. With your riding and shooting skills, it is normal for you to win every game."

"It's quite normal!" Xiao Bi raised her chin: "So no matter how much my brother-in-law praises me, no matter how much the generals praise me, I don't think it is excessive at all. I also took the opportunity to ask my brother-in-law for three thousand cavalry."

Huan Yu was not surprised when Xiao Xuan mentioned the cavalry matter, but Xiao Bi's words really touched him a lot.

The Wei Dynasty had millions of troops, and there were countless people with outstanding abilities, but those who could eventually become famous generals were rare.
