Farming and Raising Cubs (II)

Chapter 277: Speculations

　　"In this case, it would be unfair for anyone to go. Would it be fair if you go, General?" Gu Shangqing said.

　　"Yes, it's not fair. But how long have you been married? You don't even have a child." General Shang said, "It's impossible that if something really happens, you won't even have a successor."

　　Gu Shangqing shook his head. "If the general says so, what will happen to your two children without your support?"

　　"At least I have no children, so even if something really happens, it won't drag down my wife." Gu Shangqing sighed, "Besides... General, the Saint just now obviously wanted me to stand up."

　　"When you spoke, the Saint's expression did not change, and he did not seem very happy." Gu Shangqing said, "Besides, I was the one who captured Alp alive this time. Compared to you, Bagatur now regards me as a thorn in his side."

　　"Like this time when the Turkic delegation came to Beijing, they had already found out everything about the Gu family, and they had also tried to test the Gu family's snacks many times." Gu Shangqing said, "If I went to the Turks, they would know as soon as I moved."

　　"I think the saint thinks so too, so he wants me to go." Gu Shangqing smiled bitterly, "Actually, why would I want to go?"

　　"It's dangerous to go there. If you're not careful, you won't be able to come back. I... can't bear to leave my family and my wife." Gu Shangqing gritted his teeth and said, "When I joined the army, I had never even met my wife."

　　"My wife doesn't understand me, and doesn't trust me." Gu Shangqing said, "After I came back, it took me a long time to win her trust. Just when our relationship was progressing rapidly, I suddenly..."

　　If he died, it would be good if Li Mumu was willing to accept someone else.

　　Although he felt sad and reluctant, as long as Li Mumu could be happy, there was nothing he could not accept.

　　But Li Mumu's personality is such that she doesn't trust others easily, especially men.

　　Gu Shangqing discovered that Li Mumu seemed to think that men were unreliable, and accepting him was like taking a huge gamble, so she decided to believe him this time.

　　Li Mumu might not be able to accept others easily.

　　It's not that she can't live without a man. In fact, Gu Shangqing always feels that Li Mumu actually prefers to be alone.

　　So he was flattered that she accepted him.

　　I became even more reluctant to leave.

　　"On this trip, I only hope that I can

　　Come back safely." Gu Shangqing took a deep breath, "I must come back safely."

　　General Shang was silent for a long time before he said, "Fortunately, you don't have to leave right away. You can stay at home for a few days. In the days before departure, you don't have to go to the military camp. Stay at home and spend more time with your family."

　　I don't know how likely it is that Gu Shangqing will return safely from this trip.

　　General Shang sighed silently, hoping only that Gu Shangqing could return safely.

　　For the first time, he hoped that Su Zhier really had the ability to predict the future.

　　At least it means that Gu Shangqing can come back alive and have a chance to become a general in the future.

　　Gu Shangqing returned home, still thinking about how to tell this matter to his family.

　　After dinner in the evening, Gu Shangqing said, "I'm going to leave in a few days. I have nothing to do these days, so I'll stay at home and not go anywhere."
