Chapter 1068 Mantle(1/2)

Junlin was silent for a long time.

"Your men have joined the army for generations?"

"Well. Our ancestors started their own family through military merits, and almost every generation will have children with amazing talents. As they accumulate, they will become families of military generals.

Our sidelines also produced some literati, but basically they couldn't make it. Our family produced many top martial arts scholars, more generals, and basically there was no shortage of talents from generation to generation. Perhaps because we have never really faced the crisis of population, so in my generation, no males have been born, which made the elders worry.

In that era, any family with some strength, whether in terms of status or money, believed that there must be a male at home to be considered a successor. Even if the son born has obvious flaws, they still enjoy more rights than their daughters at home and outside the home.

This is true for the royal family, the ministers and the merchants, and the common people. A family without a son will be ridiculed as a family that is out of place.

Our Feng family has an unwritten rule. As long as a woman can have children, men are not allowed to take concubines. Whether it is the Feng family or those who want to become the Feng family's son-in-law, they must accept this rule.

At that time, the elders all had high hopes for their mother's birth, but they did not expect that their younger brother would be born as a stillbirth. The mother was greatly hit and her body was severely damaged. It can be said that she lost the ability to give birth to children again.

My father is very smart. He once used tricks to defeat the enemy's troops without fighting, but he became famous when he was a teenager. Later, he got married to my mother and had a good relationship, but he always had only a daughter, so the pressure that both husband and wife need to face is getting greater and greater.

Compared to my father, my mother is very weak in temperament. Although she also reads and learns calligraphy, she is a woman in the boudoir. She has never experienced the world outside and her vision is inevitably cramped. Even with my father's guidance, she was originally a bit tenacious and lone-like foundation, but nine out of ten children were all daughters, and the only son was stillborn all her child. She naturally accepted a huge impact.

Actually, I often think that if I had only one child at that time, she might not have fallen into a collapse immediately."

"No matter what happened to the Feng family at that time, it is undoubtedly not your fault."

"But it's not my parents' fault."

"Yes, it's not someone's fault. Now, as long as you have children, it's the same for a boy or a girl. Whoever is outstanding will inherit the family. It doesn't have to be a son. If we have a daughter, I will definitely leave all my property to my daughter."

Feng Shu, who was originally a little sad, was amused by her.

"You are also a kind of biased attitude. You cannot favor boys over girls, and of course you cannot favor girls over boys in the opposite direction."

"I believe my daughter must do better than her son."

"Believe it or not, I will tell him when I see the Saint?"

"He will definitely ask you when you will give him a sister."

Feng Shu rolled her eyes.

"If you keep doing this, your child will definitely learn it."

"Learn, learn."

"You really want a few sons who are used to rolling their eyes?"

"They can't be perfect. If they don't roll their eyes, they will definitely have other minor shortcomings."

"However, rolling your eyes can be avoided."

Feng Shu rolled her eyes again.

Junlin laughed.

"In the future, we may get a title - a family that loves to roll their eyes. Those who don't know why may guess that if you want to be our wife, the indispensable skill is to learn to roll your eyes."

"I didn't look at you and rolled my eyes."

"Do you want me to study?"

"Forget it. It's not good for men to roll their eyes."

"So you think it's great to roll your eyes?"

"I don't know. I didn't deliberately practice rolling my eyes in the mirror. How can I know if it looks good? I remember a saying that Xi Shi comes from the eyes of a lover."

"What's in the eyes of a lover?"

"Xi Shi. A big beauty."

Junlin asked how she wrote it, and she squatted down and wrote it on the ground.

"Shi Master Shi?"

"Um."

"Is it a beauty of your era? Didn't it mean that the serious girls at that time didn't even go out of the door? How do you know what she looks like?"

The problem is very reasonable.

"It's an era that is even older than my era. There are many legends, and whether it is true or not can't be verified.

But the ancients described it very interesting, and there were quite a few literati and poets who passed on the past stories from generation to generation, so later they all had special idioms to describe peerless beauty - falling fish and falling geese, and closing the moon and shy flowers.

It means how beautiful the beauty is? It can make the fish forget to swim, sink to the bottom of the water, and the geese forget to fly and fall from the sky. The moon does not dare to come out to see people, and would rather hide behind the clouds, and the flowers are ashamed to bloom and close, and they are unwilling to compare with her."

"This is all about beauty? What if it is about a man who is beautiful? For example, someone like a handsome guy whom we travel with."

Feng Shu knew that he was referring to Jimo.

"Talented compared to Zijian, he looks like Pan An. Pan An is a famous handsome man."

"More beautiful than Jimo?"

"How do I know? Pan An is also an ancient person. But among the people I have seen in my two lives, Jimo is indeed the best-looking and has no objection, the kind you can know at a glance."

Junlin hummed, "Didn't it mean that Xi Shi appears in the eyes of his lover?"

"The lover also has a shit in his eyes."

Her words also made Junlin laugh.

"So you are Xi Shi in my eyes, and I am eye shit in your eyes?"

"We are not lovers, we are husband and wife, so we can't count this way."

"Why can't it? I believe it can also be applied between lovers."

Feng Shu glanced at him, and she couldn't see him as her lover now.

"I can only say that I'm having a relaxed and peaceful relationship with you now."

"However, I don't have any affection for me, let alone love?"

King's Landing is very fast.

Feng Shu shrugged, "You know."

"Are you really not afraid of me being sad?"

"You have been sad before, and now we have a much better relationship than before. I believe you will get through it well."

"This comfort is really comforting. Am I going to be grateful to you?"

"No need. This is your own choice. Being grateful is also for yourself. It has nothing to do with me. I have also balanced the situation I can bear and made the choice to continue to maintain my marriage with you."

“We can’t go faster?”

Junlin felt that he really had to be more attentive.

As she said, now seems to be the time for their relationship to be the most harmonious in history. If they could strike while the iron was hot, it would have been very fast. The problem is that she was too calm when facing him, and he felt a strange feeling when he was calm, as if he and she were developing more and more towards good friends.

Whether she guided this consciously or created it unintentionally, once she was determined to be a person in her circle of friends, it would be difficult to break through that circle again.

"I don't want to be your close friend, Feng Jiuniang."

"What?"

"I am your man, and this is true no matter what. So for our marriage life, you should really be nervous about me. Don't always look like you are the most relaxed in front of me, which will make me feel that I am too lazy and have to work harder."

Feng Shu's eyes twitched.

"It's really because I trust you that I can speak and act casually in front of you. If it were someone else, I wouldn't be so unprepared. Do you want me to be on guard against you?"

"Are you sure you're not prepared for me?"

"Confirm not."

As soon as he finished speaking, Junlin reached out to his waist. Feng Shu subconsciously turned his heels slightly, and then he went around to the other side, without a doubt his hand fell into vain.

"Is this just unprepared? I didn't even attack you, I just wanted to hug you. Such a non-threatening move has already made you feel alert, and it is many times stronger than the alertness of ordinary people."

"This is an instinctive reaction of the body. I have been trained since I was a child. Although I changed it later, after taking over again, I also took time to practice every day. This deliberate training, as well as the various things in my memory, will naturally become more sensitive when superimposed. This is also a good thing, isn't it?

I can't say that I avoid it because I am worried or afraid that you will not be good to me, but habits have become natural, and habits are often stronger than willpower..."

Seeing that he looked smiling, Feng Shu explained, his voice gradually decreased, and it sounded more like muttering.

"Indeed, from a security perspective, this kind of indiscriminate defense is of course a good thing. After all, no one can tell whether someone will use a familiar face to get close to you and then attack your weakness unexpectedly. I didn't want to do anything about you, just give an example to let you see that you are not really unprepared for me."

"Just trust enough, anyway, you know that I am not lying. Here, you are the person I trust the most, and you have learned a lot of my affairs through my initiative, but others don't know. Mengmeng can master some things that others don't know. That is because it has formed a contract with me, and then it has special skills, and I can't guard against such an unfathomable powerful person as it."

"Yes, yes, I am really flattered. While saying that I don't love me now and I will never love me in the future, I also told me that you trust me the most and feel the most relaxed in front of me."

He smiled helplessly.

"Are you really going to treat me as a good friend?"

Feng Shu thought for a while, "If you don't want to be friends, then be a relative. Anyway, we are all parents of three children now. With this relationship, we are already relatives."

"However, it's not considered a close relative of your master's level, right?"

"You can't be too greedy in life. How long will we know each other and how long will we stay together?"

Greedy is not enough to swallow an elephant.
