"You are talking nonsense again. What status do you have that makes you worthy of Mr. Xiao talking to you?"
"That's right, who are we? A bunch of poor-looking country bumpkins. How can we talk to my father who is fighting on the battlefield and enjoying his merits forever!"
"That's right. He went to the battlefield and lost the first battle. What's so great about being dragged back from the battlefield by Xiao Hou? His father is great!"
"When you talk about this, I just think about it. Xiao Hou is about the same age as him, and both have the same surname: Xiao. How come he is the God of War, while some people have become a joke on the battlefield!"
"You don't understand this. Little Marquis Xiao doesn't have a father who will be a marquis forever. He has to find a father for his son who will be a marquis forever..."
"It makes sense. Look at those people who have fathers who will be their marquis forever. They were trying so hard to bully us. Why?"
"Just because his father is a hero, he is a bear!"
"Ha ha……"
Several of Jiang Rong's companions laughed loudly and wantonly, just like how Xiao Lei had ridiculed them unscrupulously.
Several scholars passed by and couldn't help but stop and listen to what they were saying.
They felt that what these people said was really sarcastic and the ultimate example of bitterness, and they should learn from it.
"Xiao Lei, we have talked so much, why don't you say anything?"
Xiao Lei looked at them helplessly.
Feng shui takes turns, and he knew this not long after he became unable to speak.
During these days of recuperation, he rarely went out because of his low self-esteem, so he was temporarily isolated from these injuries, but once he went out, these injuries were unavoidable.
There was nothing he could do, he had offended too many people in the first place.
Xiao Lei regarded it as his own retribution and just stood there and responded.
He lost his voice, but not his strength. Even though he couldn't fight back with words, he could use his body.
Xiao Lei did nothing and just allowed these people to ridicule them as much as they wanted.
"I tell you, you have spent these days as officials in vain. You don't even know so much news..."
The tallest person among them said, "Master Xiao was seriously injured. Although he saved his life, he lost his voice."
"He can't speak now, what do you want him to respond to?"
"Oh?" Someone else was surprised, "What, Mr. Xiao is mute?"
"No, I've been mute for a long time. Your news is too late!"
"Haha, if Mr. Xiao can't speak, doesn't it mean he can't show off his father?"
"As long as there is a will, there is always a way!"
Xiao Lei stood there motionless, letting them talk freely.
The slight treatment from his family had long made him numb, so how could these external voices cause any ripples in him again?
After experiencing pain, he can also feel the pain of others.
Today, he is willing to be the venting bag to let these people vent their anger.
No matter how hurtful the words are, they are not as painful as the arrow he experienced.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Just when these people saw that Xiao Lei was unmoved and intensified their insults around him, the boy next to Xiao Lei rushed over.
"Guys, you are also people with official positions in the court. Isn't it good to bully our young master like this?"
"Boy, which one of your eyes saw that we were bullying?"
"We are obviously reminiscing with Mr. Xiao, Mr. Xiao, don't you think so?"
"Okay," Jiang Rong interrupted them, "It's almost time to reminisce about old times. We have other things to do. Don't waste time. Let's go!"
"Eh? Jiang Rong, when he treated you like that, why did you..."
Jiang Rong covered the man's mouth and advised in a low voice, "The past is in the past. Besides, he was also injured in the war. There is no need to be so irritating and belittling him."
He could clearly see how several people had insulted Xiao Lei just now.
Seeing that they had been talking around Xiao Lei for such a long time without inducing Xiao Lei to become furious, he knew that this man had gone through the baptism of war and death and was completely different from the Xiao Lei before.
They are civil servants and have not experienced fighting on the battlefield. However, the situation in Beijing during the war between the two countries has been gradually publicized by some veterans who have returned with honors.
In the first battle between Dongling and Fanbang, Fanbang used cast-iron arrows in an attempt to undermine Dongling's morale in the first battle.
Therefore, strictly speaking, although Xiao Lei was suspected of improper command, he still tested Fan Bang's strength and weapons for the soldiers behind him, so he took the lead.
Regardless of the final outcome of the battle, his courage to lead the attack first deserves recognition.
"Yesterday, for example, yesterday's death, Xiao Lei now is different from the Xiao Lei before. It is meaningless for us to confront them tit for tat."
Looking at Xiao Lei, who had no trace of anger on his face and was even a little numb, they felt bored and followed Jiang Rong away without looking back.
"Sir, are you okay?" The boy hurriedly checked on his master.
Xiao Lei shook his head and looked at the boy.
The boy knew what he wanted to ask and nodded immediately, "Don't worry, a hundred lambs have been sent to Su Zhai!"
"Sir, everything is done, let's go back to the house!"
Xiao Lei nodded.
The two masters and servants left, but soon, Su Zhai was drowned by the "bleating" sounds of the sheep.
After Xiao Lei left, Su Nianyun dug out the medical books on the cabinet and studied the relationship with Xiao Lei's injuries.
She arranged Jing'er and Ping An on a low couch. Su Nianyun gave each of them a piece of paper and a writing brush, allowing them to write and play.
Half an hour later, the paper in front of the two of them was blank as usual, but their faces were drawn by the other party into painted faces.
Huixin laughed and watched from the side, but did not step forward to stop him.
In Mobei, there are many more naughty children. The principle of looking after children is to let them go naturally, as long as they don't get hurt.
Here, Su Nianyun was reading a book, and the child there was drawing each other's faces seriously. Just when the atmosphere was harmonious, the sudden roar of mountains, tsunamis, and sheep came.
Huixin immediately picked up Su Jing, and then hugged Ping An into her arms.
"Princess, please go and take a look. Many sheep are being sent to our Su residence one after another!" Chunhua hurriedly came in and replied.
Su Nianyun hurriedly came to the courtyard, and saw a vast expanse of white coming and going in the courtyard, and there were also the sounds of sheep bleating.
Aunt Liu led one of the sheep-deliveryers to Su Nianyun, "Princess, he is the one who leads the sheep-delivery here."
After listening to Nanny Liu speak, this person knew that the person in front of him was actually a princess.
It's just that he is just a butcher and a commoner. He doesn't know much about Su Nianyun, and he doesn't know which princess in the palace she is.
"Looking at your clothes, you are a butcher?" Su Nianyun asked.
"Yes, yes," the man stammered, "I am Butcher Zhang from the vegetable market."
"Who asked you to send the sheep here?"
"It's the eldest son of Xiao Mansion. The man who bought the sheep said this. He said just send it here. The owner here knows why we send the sheep here."
Su Nianyun didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I asked Xiao Lei to give me a pig, cow, sheep, etc. for my research every day, but I didn't say I would give so many!"
"This... I don't know," the butcher Zhang said nervously, "Then, princess, can I leave?"
"I'm delivering sheep here, but no one is taking care of the stall. Do you want to go back and look after the stall?"
Su Nianyun looked at the group of people standing at the gate again. It was obvious that they were either butchers or sheep traders.
Seeing the noisy flock of sheep gave her a headache, but she couldn't let anyone take them back, after all, Xiao Lei had already paid.
"Okay, let's go!" She nodded.
The butchers and sheep dealers immediately turned and left.
"Princess, what are you and Mr. Xiao doing asking for such a sheep?" Aunt Liu asked in confusion.
When Xiao Lei came, she was in the back kitchen making medicine for the young master. She didn't know why they sent so many sheep.
"Hey," Su Nianyun sighed, "Let's find a way to settle these sheep first. Aunt Liu, I'll talk to you about it alone later."
"There must be more than a hundred sheep with so many sheep. Where should they be placed?" Grandma Liu was also in trouble.
Su San suggested, "The backyard is empty. Let's get there temporarily and then think of a way to deal with it!"
"That's all!" Grandma Liu nodded.
Just as everyone was working together to herd the sheep in the backyard, Su Jing and Ping An took advantage of the chaos to catch a lone lamb and couldn't stop giggling.
