Chapter 621 Look, a fat monkey is hanging from the tree!

ing if there would be favorable weather conditions.Children, however, were the most carefree. They spent one hour each morning learning at Li's house, and then it was time for them to play.Building sn..."Sister, what is this Two cylinders stuck together" Jiā'an rushed over and took the black thing from his sister's hand, turning it over and over.

Jia Xi also hurried forward, grabbing it to play with, "It's not iron, it's very light! How come there are two pieces of glass inlaid"

Jiayin was afraid her brothers would fumble and break things, so she quickly hugged them close and said, "This is a thousand-mile eye. Come on, let's go to the village entrance and show you something amazing!"

"Thousand-mile eyes Can you really see a thousand miles" Jiāxǐ put on his shoes and proactively took his younger sister out the door.

Jia An was carrying his younger sister's shoes and following behind, suddenly exclaimed: "Oh, I remember that in Quanzhou, someone at the teahouse said those foreigners have something called 'thousand-mile eyes,' could this be it"

"Yes, Thousand Eyes! I remember now too!" Jiaxi was overjoyed, jumping straight up and almost bumping into the door frame.

Before she could even cry out, the two brothers had already rushed to her side and dashed out of the house like a whirlwind.

At this moment, the afterglow of the sunset on the horizon hadn't completely faded, painting the sky and earth in shades of orange. Birds returning home fluttered their wings and flew past...

The villagers had all gone home for dinner, leaving only the lonely old tree at the usually bustling village entrance.

Jiā'ān and Jiāxǐ climbed up the trunk of the tree one after another and sat side by side.

Here the view is best, you can see the farthest.

Jia Yin picked up the telescope and brought it to her eyes. After much effort, she finally adjusted the focus.

This was still a military surplus item she had picked up while wandering the night market in her past life. Although it looked clunky, it was much better than those toy-like ones.

Jī'ān and Jiāxǐ each reached out a hand, holding their younger sister behind them, fearing she would lean back.

"How are you doing, little sister Let me have a look! Can it really see for a thousand miles" Jiaxi was anxious and couldn't help but urge her.

Jiayin quickly handed the telescope over and then went back to find a sturdy branch...hold on tight.

As expected, as soon as Jiaxi put the telescope to his eye, he couldn't help but shout, "Wow, what is that A bird! A cloud! No, and there's also King Manor! It's so close, so clear!"

Home安 immediately rushed over, snatched the telescope, and cried out, “Ah, it can see for a thousand miles! It’s King’s Estate, there are three people at the village entrance!”

"Let me see!"

"Oh, I'll take another look!"

The two brothers soon became madly competitive over a telescope.

And just now, the little sister who was being held in their hands, had already climbed onto a branch, with a face of...sure enough!

Jia Yin couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Her two older brothers were only reliable occasionally. Most of the time, they would act this way, being drawn to attention and leaving her, their younger sister, aside.

This realization took root in her heart the moment she almost became a barbecue on a stone grill as a child...

The Lord brought over a dozen guardsmen and rode back to the new village. From afar, he saw someone on a tree at the entrance of the village.

Upon entering, I saw that Jiaxi and Jiana were holding a strange tube and taking pictures of me continuously.

And on the tree branch next to it, there was also a fat monkey hanging.

Fat monkey!

The lord jumped in fright, flew up directly from horseback, and then carefully landed on the ground holding his beloved chubby daughter. He angrily asked: "What happened If you had fallen down, what would happen if your head got hurt"

Jia Yin grinned, revealing a gap in her teeth, and smiled awkwardly.

She underestimated her two brothers' obsession with the telescope. Luckily, her stepfather came back, or her fingers would have cramped up...

Jia'an and Jiaxi didn't know disaster was imminent, they were still bickering.

"This horse's nostrils are so big!"

"No, bigger eyes!"

The lord kicked the tree trunk with his foot, and the two boys immediately fell down. They scrambled to their feet, dazed for a moment before realizing something was amiss.

They were having so much fun, they seemed to have forgotten about their sister!

The lord bent down and picked up the telescope, without looking to see what it was, he handed it to Jia Yin, then hugged her and walked her toward the courtyard.

Jīā'ān and Jiāxǐ hurried after him.

Jia Xi was the first to sheepishly admit their mistake, "Hee hee, Lord Hou, we were wrong. We were so engrossed in the view that we forgot to look after Fu Niuer."

"Yeah, yeah!" Jia An quickly chimed in, "We saw you running over and getting closer, so we watched for a while longer. This千裡眼 (qīlǐyǎn) is truly amazing!"

The Marquis ignored them and went straight into the Li family's courtyard.

Jia Yin secretly made faces with her two older brothers, then threw the telescope to them.

Home safety and Home Joy understood each other, they took the telescope and ran away.

How could the Lord not know about their little actions Reaching out, he patted the chubby girl on the back and said, "From now on, take Shuilin and Shuicun with you wherever you go. These two are too rambunctious; when they get carried away, they forget everything."

"Hehe, got it, father-in-law," Jia Yin quickly changed the subject. "Father-in-law, my brothers are going to sail overseas to have a look, Grandma wants them to learn their skills for three years before setting off."

"Is that so" The Marquis replied, without saying anything more.

Li Laotai and Tao Hongying were discussing household matters when they saw the Marquis returning home. Tao Hongying hurriedly went to the kitchen to prepare a bowl of chicken noodle soup and two side dishes.

The Lord ate a clean meal before accompanying Old Madam Li in conversation. When he inquired about the two boys going to sea, Old Madam Li said, “These are just two mischievous monkeys, there’s no way to keep them contained. So let’s just let them run wild out there!”

"Let him come back when the day is right, and have him teach them seafaring skills from an old sailor. Then we'll see if they can hold out."

The Marquis nodded, "Although Tianwu and overseas countries don't have much interaction, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also has some manpower, always operating. "

"Why don't I send the two boys in They could learn foreign languages and customs, and even how to sail."

"Would that work Would it be too much trouble" Li Lao Tai was delighted and tempted, but more worried about causing the Marquis any trouble.

The Marquis shook his head and said, "They're already short-staffed because the court's focus is now on the north. But I think pirates are becoming increasingly rampant in the outer seas, and there's more and more traffic from foreign tribes. We can't relax our defenses!"

"In case we retake the north bank of the Yangtze River and trouble arises in the south again, we can't be completely unprepared. It's best for the two youngsters to learn their skills now. If there are no problems in the south, they should go out to sea for leisure or do business. If war breaks out, it will be easier for them to establish themselves."

Old Li nodded repeatedly, her expression filled with surprise and delight.

Jiaxi and Jianan were not made for studying. She thought that going to sea as a merchant was the best she could hope for.

Unexpectedly, there's still a chance to get an official position in the future!

"Alright, alright, Lord Hou. I'll leave them to you to arrange." Li Laotai took the Lord Hou's hand, her voice filled with unspeakable gratitude. "Thank goodness for you, these children in our family are truly fortunate to have your help."

The Marquis followed up, "Those two children will probably have to suffer in the future..."

“What’s there to be afraid of when it comes to hardship!” Old Man Li waved his hand dismissively, not feeling anything amiss. “There’s no learning without enduring hardship! These two boys are tough and resilient; you can do whatever you want to them! If they were afraid of hardship, they'd just stay home and farm honestly, and I wouldn't have to worry about them anymore.”

"Well then, I'll go into the city tomorrow and take them along." The Marquis smiled, directly deciding the "tragic" future of the two boys.

Jia Yin sat on the side, smiling sweetly, but in her heart she shed a tear of sympathy for her two older brothers...as originally worried about Jia Yi's future. In fact, joining the army is the best choice for him. But our family's Lao Si and Da Yong are both serving with the Marquis in the Northern Expedition Army...
