MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

"I've been looking at these guys these days. Those guys are pretty malleable, so most of the candidates have been sorted out. All I need to do is give them enough time to train more. But to be honest, I've never seen anyone with better skills in concealed weapons than you. It’s more appropriate.”

"My grandfather and uncle didn't value this in the past, but I think concealed weapons are not about sneakiness, but about surprise. So if you have time and energy, I hope you can take up this responsibility, preferably in the military. Select a group of people to participate in it, and slowly, we can train some people who have both ideas and practical operations, then the expansion of the weapons camp will be just around the corner!"

　　When Gu Jiulang heard this, his blood boiled a little.

The weapons camp was a dream he had told Gu Shaoyu before. But at that time, no one in the Gu family thought highly of him. They were busy training the army and fighting wars, so even he gave up this dream to himself. forgotten.

But now, Gu Shaoyu not only remembered it, but also helped him implement it step by step. Although there is still a long way to go before it is successful, Gu Jiulang has at least found the motivation to live on.

 Otherwise, day after day, even if the Gu family has received care and attention from so many people, he will wither away.

So he grabbed Gu Shaoyu's hand, and Gu Jiulang nodded excitedly.

When he was anxious, he quickly used sign language, but Gu Shaoyu couldn't understand it. After tapping the paper, he realized what he was doing and hurriedly wrote on the paper.

“Thank you, brother, I will do it well and make sure all the soldiers in Daxing Dynasty use more convenient weapons!”

People in the Gu family have never had the idea of ​​self-respect in the military, so even if this weapons camp is established, the weapons developed in it must be reported to the court and distributed to the remaining military camps.

 It won’t be exclusive to the Tiger and Ben Army!

 This is both Gu Jiulang’s meaning and Gu Shaoyu’s idea.

"Okay, since you agree, I'll leave this matter to you, but I have only one request, don't waste your energy. You must know that the most important thing for you now is to take care of your body. If you can't take care of your health, then I will take care of this matter. It can only be taken back.”

When Gu Jiulang heard that he was going to take it back, he quickly grabbed his sleeves and shook his head with wide eyes, as if he never agreed.

Gu Shaoyu smiled, but still pretended to be serious.

"In short, you have to cooperate with the doctor's diagnosis and treatment. You are not allowed to stay up late, don't think too much, take your time, don't be in a hurry. When you recover, you can live here, no problem, you know?"

Gu Jiulang nodded like garlic, and Gu Shaoyu was also very pleased.

"Let's go and have a look. I've found a few good people from the private sector to be your assistants. You can take a look everywhere."

Gu Jiulang was looking forward to it and hurried into the concealed weapon room.

Although it is said to be a room, it is just a few tents connected together in the camp. It is filled with all kinds of utensils, all of which Gu Shaoyu ordered people to prepare based on Gu Jiulang's previous drawings.

 Although he didn't do it particularly well in a hurry, in Gu Jiulang's eyes, this was much better than some elixir that could live a hundred years.

 “General!”

 “Nine Masters!”

The craftsmen greeted the two brothers when they saw them, and then continued to do their own things. This was in line with Gu Jiulang's wishes.

He is only worried about one thing now. Are the craftsmen literate?

 After all, my voice is broken, so I have to use sign language or write to communicate with others. If they don't understand sign language and can't read, it will be a lot of trouble for them to communicate.

 Before he could speak, Gu Shaoyu said. “They are literate, and Master Qu also understands sign language, so there will be no obstacles in communicating with them.”

Hearing this, Gu Jiulang was very happy. Since there was no obstacle, he immediately started to draw.

Gu Shaoyu couldn’t understand it, but Master Qu could.

 Then he repeated what Gu Jiulang had just said.

"What Mr. Jiu means is that everyone who enters the concealed weapons room is his brother. There is no need to be polite in the future. The most important thing is that if you have any clever ideas, you can tell him. Let's discuss it together and make some good weapons as much as possible. Come, this will help the stability of Daxing Dynasty."

Gu Shaoyu glanced at Gu Jiulang and saw him smiling and nodding, knowing that the translation was good. At the same time, seeing Gu Jiulang's eyes shining, he felt relieved.

Gu Jiulang stayed in the concealed weapon room for less than an hour when someone came calling from outside.

 The one who raised his head was naturally Mu Lianying. When he saw Gu Shaoyu and Gu Jiulang, he said with a grin.

“General and Master Jiu, do you want to go and have a look? Brother Wen and Nian Ling are having a test, and there are still people in the army betting on who will win and who will lose!”

 “Is there anyone playing banker?”

 “Hey, Vice General Ni and Vice General Wei started the game, but...”

 “But what?”

 “It’s in the name of Master Jiu.”

 They are naughty!

There is no hard and fast rule in the Huben Army that gambling is not allowed in the army, but there has never been any excessive situation. Therefore, Gu Shaoyu has always turned a blind eye, and now the game is being played right under his nose. , Of course, it is necessary to become a famous teacher.

 The safest way is to start in the name of Gu Jiulang. In this case, even if Gu Shaoyu is angry, he will still tolerate it for his sake.

Seeing this, Gu Shaoyu gave Mu Lianying a cold look, and Mu Lianying quickly stepped forward to Gu Jiulang and said in a flattering manner.

"Master Jiu, please go with the general quickly. That boy Nianling is so proud. He promises to defeat all the powerful people in the army!"

As soon as these words came out, Gu Jiulang felt helpless.

 The two children Nian Jin and Nian Ling have always behaved very steadily and well-behaved in the village, especially in front of him. They have basically never seen the two children acting out of temper.

But in the past two months since arriving at the General's Mansion, the brothers and sisters have revealed their true temperaments, showing such naughtiness and boldness that Gu Jiulang did not expect.

However, thinking back to when they were young and vigorous, the two of them did not sound crazy, so firstly, they wanted to see what their son was capable of, and secondly, they also wanted to help a few lieutenants to rescue them, so they made a move, He signaled to Mu Lianying to leave quickly.

Mu Lianying pushed Gu Jiulang's wheelchair and jogged as if the wind was blowing under her feet.

Gu Shaoyu wanted to tell him to slow down, but the two figures quickly disappeared into the tent. He chuckled twice and dismissed the matter.

 Turning around to Master Naqu, he gave serious instructions.
