Chapter 128 My Brother Heard It
Liu Xiangqin smiled faintly and nodded bluntly.
"The general is right. You must prepare a lot of money when you come to me. Otherwise, you will feel bad because you can't buy something you really want."
Gu Yixuan smiled. Wasn’t he feeling uncomfortable at the moment?
The ten boxes of jewels, gold and silver ornaments, calligraphy and paintings he brought with him were used to buy food and other items to be sent to the capital.
He really doesn't have any money left.
Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat and he nervously rubbed the corners of his clothes on both sides of his body with his hands.
"Miss, I don't have the money to buy those three books now. Can I use this jade pendant on me to pay off the debt?"
Gu Yixuan took off the jade pendant from his waist and placed it in front of Liu Xiangqin.
He loved those three military books so much that he couldn't let them go.
He knew that the grocery store's rule was that items sold could not be returned.
Once his money is spent, it is spent. He cannot return certain items, such as the books and weapons he wants to buy.
Liu Xiangqin smiled and shook her head, "These three military books are given to the general by me."
"If it weren't for the generals and the soldiers in the barracks, charging into battle and killing the enemy at the front, our country wouldn't be so safe. These three military books are my humble contribution."
Gu Yixuan waved his hands in astonishment, "These three military manuals are too valuable, young lady, please don't give them to me! I will buy them with my own money!"
These three military books, each as big as a fist, would be worth a fortune if sold outside.
It was really inappropriate for Liu Xiangqin to say she wanted to give it to him.
"General, you are the general who protects our country's borders and strives to fight against the enemy for peace. Why not give you these three military books?"
"The general just said that the enemy country is truly despicable, having the audacity to attack the military camp. General, take those three books back tonight and study them carefully. Try to find a suitable method to fight the enemy tomorrow. I have only one wish, and that is peace in our country, so that I can do business here in peace."
As Liu Xiangqin spoke, Gu Yixuan's gaze became firm.
"Young lady, you have such a heart for the country. I admire you! In that case, I will keep these three books carefully. I will go home tonight and think carefully about them. I will try not to let you down. I will defeat that hateful enemy country as soon as possible and make them dare not attack again!"
Before leaving the grocery store, Gu Yixuan studied the weapons carefully. The more he studied, the more he felt that if these weapons could really be used in the army.
The enemy's soldiers will definitely be beaten to a pulp by them.
Putting aside the thought of wanting to laugh but not being able to laugh in his mind, he returned to the military camp with the three fist-sized military books in one hand and the food he had bought.
Liu Xiangqin turned around and saw Liu Liangji sticking his head out.
The curious look around makes it look like some kind of animal, so cute.
"Aliang, that guy just now is a customer who came from afar to the grocery store. He is our dynasty's general stationed in southern Xinjiang. He will come over the day after tomorrow evening. You can say hello to him."
After class at the private school in the afternoon, Liu Liangji took the carriage that Cai Zhuangzhuang sent to pick him up and returned to the old house early.
When he had nothing to do, he would read in his room.
Occasionally, he would open the tablet his sister gave him and watch some interesting videos.
Waiting for my sister to come back.
What he didn't expect was that before his sister came back, he learned from Sister Yiyuan that a big customer would come to the shop tonight.
He didn't know how to face big clients and was afraid that he would say something wrong, so he kept hiding in his room.
"Yeah!" Liu Liangji nodded excitedly. He heard the conversation between his sister and the big client in the room.
"Sister, I've heard about this great general in private school. He was truly formidable! At the age of fourteen, he was stationed at the frontier, garrisoning the border. He was able to defeat any enemy that attempted to attack our dynasty."
"Among the classmates I know, two or three have said that if they fail to pass the imperial examination, they will join the army!"
Liu Liangji also wanted to go, but when he heard that it was very dangerous in the border area and that one could die at any time, he hesitated.
If his parents were still alive, he might have had the same idea. If he failed to pass the imperial examination, he would go to the frontier and fight against those hateful enemies!
But now that his parents are gone and his sister only has him as a relative, he doesn't want to do anything so risky.
“It’s a good idea, but we still have to be realistic.”
Liu Xiangqin did not continue the topic, but looked towards the dining room.
"Aliang, you've been in the room for so long, you haven't eaten yet, right? Let's go have dinner first. Sister has been busy for so long, she's a little hungry."
I'm really hungry!
In the afternoon, I went with the village chief to deal with the matters concerning the two mountains, and obtained the deeds to the two mountains legitimately.
After coming back, I talked with Gu Yixuan for such a long time, which was quite tiring.
Liu Liangji nodded repeatedly, "Thank you for your hard work, sister!"
He could imagine that during the time when he was studying in a private school and living on campus, his sister must have been very busy working alone in the grocery store!
Thinking of this, he plucked up his courage and made a decision.
"Sister! When that general comes over the night after tomorrow, I will be responsible for entertaining him!"
He was very worried about leaving his sister alone in the shop with a grown man!
Especially that big man, he was extremely good-looking, the most handsome man he had ever seen!
He thought, even if he went to the capital.
The general's appearance is definitely among the best!
Given his status, there would definitely be many women from official families who would want to marry him.
Liu Liangji didn't want his sister to have too much contact with Gu Yixuan, so as to avoid getting involved.
He was not at home before and was unaware of this.
Now that he knows, he can't let this kind of thing continue to happen!
Liu Xiangqin didn't care about this. "Sure. We have a big client tomorrow, a daughter of an official from the capital. We women have some private conversations to share, so when you come back tomorrow afternoon, have dinner first. When you're full, go back to your room and read a book or watch a video. But don't listen to what we women say~"
Having said that, Liu Xiangqin made an explanation in advance.
Tomorrow, she will definitely ask about the promotion of women's toilet paper and underwear.
If it was like today, everything they said would be heard by Liu Liangji.
She was afraid of him and would be embarrassed, so she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
"I'll listen to my sister. When I come back tomorrow, I'll eat early and go back to my room after I'm full!" Liu Liangji nodded obediently.
After dinner, the brother and sister chatted for a while, which allowed Liu Liangji to better understand the current sales situation and customer base of the grocery store.
Liu Xiangqin saw that it was getting late, so everyone went back to their rooms, washed up quickly, and went to bed.
