Chapter 622 - 622 Reward to Qi Xingfeng
622 Reward to Qi Xingfeng
They went out together.
The capital was bustling with activity during the new year.
A few young children carrying a good axe were indeed eye-catching.
Chen Shi and Chen Xing were smiling. Three young boys who were traveling together recognized Chen Shi. When they saw him, they came up to greet him. “Chen Shi, where are you going? Is this your brother? Where did he get the big axe he’s carrying? It looks so impressive. Can you open it for us to see?”
Chen Shi smiled and said, “We’re going to General Qi’s residence. This axe is for Little General Qi. If you want to see it, you can come with us. We haven’t opened this axe yet. Little General Qi has to open it himself.”
“Wow, it hasn’t been used yet. Then let’s go take a look together. Thank you, Chen Shi.”
Hearing that the axe had yet to be used, the children around Chen Shi’s age were immediately interested.
Now that the spiritual energy had recovered, everyone advocated martial arts. Martial artists were awe-inspiring wherever they went.
Chen Shi knew martial arts and had always been popular in school. It was just that he was too reserved and usually did not speak much. When they met him today, they only greeted him with an attitude of giving it a try. Now that he had invited them, they were all overjoyed.
Go, go, go. They had to go.
Because it was the new year, many children were specially allowed to play outside. When they saw that it was lively, those who knew and those who didn’t all followed along.
There were also people who specially ran to Grand General Qi’s residence to report.
When Qi Xingfeng heard this, he couldn’t stop smiling, but he didn’t say a word.
“Big Brother, I’m really not used to you being like this now. Sigh, I miss the noisy Big Brother from the past.”
Qi Xingzhi sighed. In the past, Qi Xingfeng was too talkative. Now, he was too quiet.
Next to Qi Xingfeng was his new wife, Zhang Yuehan. Like Qi Xingfeng, she was very quiet.
Qi Xingfeng only smiled and didn’t say anything. He let Qi Xingzhi tease him. He was immersed in his own world. When he understood that he didn’t have to say many things, he understood how to restrain himself.
His heart was at peace. He preferred thinking to talking.
The rewards from the original agreement were no longer important. He had already obtained the best reward when he became calm.
Qi Xingfeng smiled and held Zhang Yuehan’s hand. “I’m bringing you to see your cousin.”
Zhang Yuehan smiled and nodded. “Okay.” She didn’t like to talk. Every time she spoke, she would only say a few words. Before she got married, she was worried that her husband would find her too quiet.
However, she didn’t expect Qi Xingfeng to be the same as her. The two of them were simply too comfortable together. After being married for three months, she was very happy. Qi Xingfeng held her hand and she said little. She would only hold his hand back so that he could feel her.
The husband and wife were glued together. Qi Xingzhi was forced to witness the couple’s PDA. He sighed and shook his head. “Sigh…”
Mother Qi came out of the house and patted Qi Xingzhi’s head. “Stop sighing. I’ve already made a match for you. You’ll soon feel the sweetness of getting married.”
Qi Xingzhi was shocked. “Mother, my dear mother, don’t do anything rash—”
Mother Qi walked out with a smile.
Qi Xingzhi chased after her. “Mother, tell me. Which family is she from?”
Mother Qi stopped in her tracks and turned to look at her healthy youngest son. She said with a gentle smile, “She’s the daughter of the right assistant minister Lord Fang, Fang Xiu. I’ve already met her. She’s beautiful, gentle, and generous. She suits you very well. There’s nothing wrong with her looks. I’ll send the portrait to your room later.”
Qi Xingzhi’s face was a little red. He was already seventeen years old. It was time to get engaged.
When it came to marriage, just like his eldest brother, he listened to his parents’ orders. They both believed that their mother would definitely choose a good marriage for them.
“Thank you, mother.”
Qi Xingzhi thanked her softly.
Mother Qi looked at her youngest son gently. “If you really want to thank me, then hurry up and give birth to a few eldest grandsons for me after you get married. I’ve wanted grandchildren for a long time.”
As she spoke, Mother Qi pondered for a moment and muttered softly, “Your brother has been married for three months. Why isn’t there any movement in Yuehan’s stomach? Is your brother impotent?”
Qi Xingzhi’s face heated up. He quickly let go of Mother Qi and walked faster.
He wouldn’t listen to what he shouldn’t.
In the room, Father Qi was playing chess with General Qi.
General Qi placed his piece leisurely. “It’s your turn.”
Father Qi was a little distracted. “Master, Xiaolu has sent a reward to Xingfeng. It was specially made for Xingfeng by Gui You. Aren’t you curious about what it looks like?”
General Qi chuckled. “What’s there to be curious about? Your son hasn’t moved out. He’ll come out to train every day. Why are you in such a hurry? You—”
General Qi pursed his lips and paused for a moment before saying, “You are worse than Xingfeng now. Why? Is your body better? Are your blood and Qi strong again? I was wondering who Xingfeng took after, but it turns out that it’s you!”
Father Qi touched his nose. He was indeed impatient. In the past six months, he had eaten divine medicine that had been extracted several times. All the hidden injuries in his body had been healed. He was also practicing holding his spear again.
They were born in martial arts sects, so their love for supreme-grade weapons was engraved in their bones.
General Qi rolled his eyes at Father Qi. “Qi Xiu, Qi Xiu, you have to learn from your son. Your injuries have healed and you can go out and fight again, but your character needs to be honed. If you don’t even have your son’s endurance, you will lose face later.”
“Don’t entertain yourself with the fun of being a child. Just play chess with me.”
General Qi stroked his white beard. The current world was unpredictable. As a general, he had to stand up and protect the country.
His only grandson was in good health and should naturally serve the country. However, the Qi family was impatient and indeed needed to be trained well. This way, when faced with danger, they would not put themselves and their brothers in danger in a moment of rashness.
Since the old general refused to let him go, Father Qi could only suppress his curiosity and played chess with the old general.
After all, he was an adult. His emotions came and went quickly.
At this moment, there was a commotion outside the residence.
“Little general Qi, look, your giant axe is so cool…”
The group of eleven or twelve-year-old children were very envious and cheered loudly.
Everyone automatically formed a circle. Su Xiaolu placed the huge axe on the ground, and the ground shook.
Su Xiaolu smiled and said to Qi Xingfeng, “Cousin, do you still remember our agreement? The agreed time has passed. Do you still keep your promise?”
Qi Xingfeng’s heart was trembling, and his heart was racing. There was ecstasy in his eyes. He nodded. “I’ve never forgotten.”
Even though the agreed date had passed and the person who recorded his words was no longer with him, he was still disciplined and strictly adhered to it.
“Cousin, take the axe!” Su Xiaolu shouted and threw the axe at Qi Xingfeng.
