Looking at the pair who made trouble on the field and then laughed heartily, he was in a trance for a moment.
If he had never picked up the swords in the first place, he would have stayed in that village for his entire life. He will never encounter any of the schemes that befall onto his head and caused the mess of his life.
But he picked up the sword.
Because he wanted to protect the people in the village and his family members.
Again and again, he swung his sword, taking the lives of countless people who stood in front of his way.
But in the end, he found out that what he wanted to protect had never deserved it.
How ironic.
"General…"
"It's fine." General Chi shook his head. "I'm only thinking that it's pretty nice for him to be able to live freely like this."
And that he envied the other party.
But he couldn't say this.
He could only watch the pair in the distance.
Bang!
Feng Ao Si was kicked to the back by the shy Sheng Qi Rou. She glared at her husband. "We're outside and my brother is coming tonight! Don't make trouble."
Feng Ao Si laughed heartily. He heard Sheng Qi Rou's words and his eyes lit up. "Brother in law is coming? I thought that he's still busy in the next village?"
"He's busy courting my sister in law." Sheng Qi Rou giggled.
"Hahahaha!" Feng Ao Si laughed again.
To be honest, Feng Ao Si thought that Sheng Shan Lang would try to get a noble lady based on his status as a commander on the battlefield. After all, there was no lack of young lady who would be interested in powerful and promising commanders.
There wouldn't be the so called love.
But there would be admiration and thought about the future. At the very least, with the commander's salary and so on, Sheng Shan Lang wouldn't lack any ladies who would open their door for him.
But in the end, Sheng Shan Lang picked a village girl.
It was perplexing for many people.
Sheng Qi Rou rolled her eyes and shook her head. "My brother knows himself well."
He knew that he wouldn't be able to withstand the harsh scrutiny of those nobility and all. Rather than forcing himself to learn what he had no talent in, it would be better for him to live a rather free life.
A village girl as a wife might be looked down upon.
But Sheng Shan Lang really liked the other party and felt that she was suitable for him. He didn't want to be dragged to the messy court politics and so on. So, it would be better for him to just pick a relatively normal young lady to be his wife.
