Lord Chunyu's words made Nie feel a little relieved.

But to be honest, decades are fleeting, let alone one or two years?

At the end of the new year, Xiao Wu Ji Guan, Yi'er has also turned eighteen. If he had arranged the marriage more quickly, the city lord might still be able to see his grandson.

With grandchildren, he might be able to hold on for a while longer if he feels good.

To put it bluntly, even if the oil is really exhausted, I can still leave with a smile.

The reason why he said he was not in a hurry to hold a wedding was probably because of his two children.

Nie smiled and said: "Is the city lord worried about Xiao Wu, or is it because of Yi'er?"

Talking to smart people saves trouble and worry. City Lord Chunyu smiled and stroked his long snow-white beard.

"The young marshal is much better than what I heard and imagined, but rather than the elders making the decision, I hope that he and Yi'er are together because of mutual love."

"The city lord means that the two children do not..."

Mr. Nie was really confused.

After marrying into the Xiao family for more than 20 years, her father-in-law has always impressed her as a calm and dignified elder who is extremely strict in everything he says and does.

It was he who said that Xiao Wu fell in love with Miss Chunyu from Ruoshui City and had already obtained the marriage permission from the Lord of Chunyu City, so she hurried over.

I didn't expect that this old man would be so unreliable this time and actually resorted to the trick of killing first and then showing off.

Lord Chunyu smiled and said: "Madam, there is no need to worry, in my opinion, the two children have a good impression of each other.

It’s just that the time of acquaintance was too short, and there is still some distance between true love.”

Mr. Nie smiled and said, "You are such a good father. You have to consider everything carefully for your daughter."

"Madam is also a rare and good mother. Naturally, she also hopes that her son and daughter-in-law Qin Se and Ming will grow old together."

"Then it's up to the city lord to decide when to get married and it's up to the children."

※※※※

After autumn arrives in Yanmen County, the heat of summer has completely disappeared.

The cold moonlight and the cool night breeze made Chun Yuyi's figure look even thinner.

Lord Chunyu walked to the window and gently put a cloak on his daughter.

Chunyu Yi tilted her head: "Dad? Why are you here?"

"The old man couldn't stay up late because he was old, so he stayed with his father for a while and then left."

Seeing his daughter's blushing face, City Lord Chunyu asked with a smile: "Did Yi'er drink tonight?"

"The osmanthus wine made by the third sister herself smelled so fragrant and sweet that I drank a few more glasses. I didn't expect it to have a lot of stamina."

Lord Chunyu closed the window gently: "You are weak and should not be greedy for cold weather. Sit down and talk to your father."

Chunyu Yi followed him to the table, picked up the teapot and poured two cups of hot tea.

"Dad, I don't know where that girl Qinqin has gone. This tea is still hot. You can just drink a cup to warm yourself up."

Lord Chunyu smiled and said, "I heard from Mrs. Xiang that you left the mansion this morning?"

Chunyu Yi knew that she could not deceive her father, so she honestly told her about her visit to the king's house today.

"Being kicked out?" City Lord Chunyu was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help laughing.

"Dad, you actually make fun of your daughter!" Chunyu Yi was unhappy.

She didn't take what happened today to heart and didn't even plan to tell her father.

One of the important reasons was that she was worried that her father would be angry with the Wang family because he felt sorry for her.

I didn't expect that he would react like this after hearing what happened.

City Lord Chunyu took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "You can dress up like that and still be chosen as your son-in-law, which shows that the Wang family is very discerning.

Such a family is considered decent and deserves to be treated well.

However, if Yi'er feels that she has been wronged, her father can go and teach Wu a lesson, which can be considered as venting his bad temper for his precious daughter."

Chunyu Yi smiled and held his arm: "My daughter is not wronged, she just feels that it is good to have her father as her backer."

City Lord Chunyu couldn't control his emotions for a while, and almost burst into tears.

If possible, he would be willing to be his daughter's lifelong supporter.

It's a pity that his mountain will collapse soon...

He tried hard to hold back his tears and chuckled: "Silly boy, after a girl gets married, her husband is the one who can rely on you.

My father thinks that the fifth child of the Xiao family is reliable, so you can rely on him with peace of mind in this life, and no one will dare to bully you."

Chunyu Yi said: "I don't want to rely on him!"

"Yier still doesn't plan to marry the Xiao family's fifth child?"

Chunyu Yi sat up straight and looked up at his father.

"No, that's not what I mean..."

She curved her lips and said very seriously: "Dad, no matter who I marry in the future, I don't intend to rely on him.

I'm not as capable as Hanzhi, but I also want to be like her, able to live well on my own no matter what the circumstances."

Lord Chunyu was greatly moved.

He knows that his daughter is extremely smart, but he also knows that she is too simple and ignorant of the world.

But it wasn't until this moment that he realized that his Yi'er had really grown up.

It still looks like a weak little tree, but its roots have been deeply rooted in the earth, and one day it will grow into a towering tree.

"Yier said it well, the most reliable supporter in the world is yourself.

As a father, I hope that you and your husband can stay together for the rest of your life. I also hope that you can be self-reliant and take good care of yourself."

"Well, my daughter will never let her father down." Chunyu Yi held his arm again: "Dad, what did the third aunt tell you today?"

Lord Chunyu smiled and said: "The third lady likes Yi'er so much that she would like to ask my father if he would like to marry you into the Xiao family as soon as possible."

Chunyu Yi was so embarrassed: "This must not have been said by the third aunt. The person she loves most is Xiao Xuan.

She will never make any decisions without asking his opinion."

City Lord Chunyu patted her shoulder and back: "Then let's just wait for Xiao Xuan to come back. Whether we are willing to marry him and when will all depend on that boy's performance.

If he does not perform well, we will kick him away and find better young people."

Chunyu Yi chuckled.

This was the first time in more than ten years that she had seen such a domineering and unreasonable father.

Xiao Xuan is already so outstanding, where should he find young people who are better than him?

"Dad, how is the situation in the camp these days?" she asked softly.

"Do you want to ask about the Ordnance Department's progress in building serial crossbows, or do you want to ask if there is any news about Xiao Xuan?"

"Tell me everything."

"The craftsmen in the Ordnance Department are working very hard. Since you moved to Xiang Mansion, they have made nearly 300 serial crossbows and have sent them to the front in batches."

"Three hundred?!" Chunyu Yi exclaimed softly.

It seemed that what Xiao Xuan said was not wrong, and following the same example was not as complicated as she thought.

Without her so-called "supervision", the craftsmen seem to be more efficient.
