Chapter 411

Fang Zichen's face was calm: "It's not that father has made progress, it's that this paper is good."

"Huh? Is that so?" The good boy ran to the side, put down his schoolbag again, and took out a piece of paper. He grabbed the left and right sides of the paper, raised it in the air, and turned it around in all directions without blind spots, and then said: "Wow, father, father, what kind of paper is this? Why is it so white? Ah! It feels so comfortable to touch. "It's smooth and different from the dripping paper that Guaizai has used before."

"It's definitely different," Fang Zichen said, "This is our Ganzhou specialty rice paper. It has strong ink wetting properties, is smooth and dense, and is tough and moisturizing." Smooth but not slippery, white and dense, pure texture, no damage when folded. When ink painting and writing, the ink spreads evenly, the penetration and adsorption power of the ink are strong, the ink color is distinct, the layers are clear, and the three-dimensional sense is rich, even if it is layer by layer. Adding ink can also keep the thick and light strokes from intersecting, and it has a moist feeling and texture of thick and light, light and thick, which makes the art of calligraphy and painting reach an unexpected ideal state. "

"Wow, is it so awesome?" Guaizi? His eyebrows twitched and he laughed:

"From now on, when the good boy uses paper, he will use our dry paper. He can write very well. In this way, father and dad no longer have to worry about the good boy studying." At this point, he His little eyebrows were furrowed, as if he was distressed: "But this paper is so good, won't it be expensive?"

Fang Zichen kept his hands on it and replied: "It's not expensive, one sword only costs one hundred and twenty cents."

The boy asked: "Ah! It's so cheap. It's great. Where can I buy it?"

"Go to Xinyuan Road and you can buy it at the Good Luck Inn." Fang Zichen said, "I used our Quzhou special rice paper. You are a smart person who has both talent and spirit in writing and painting. You deserve it."

The good boy nodded his head and said, "Eye to head."

The scholars: "..."

Dean Zhang: "... ····"

Dean Zhang received Fang Zichen's letter first. He was so excited that he could hardly breathe. But when he calmed down, he couldn't help but wonder why the master suddenly came. They went to Yangyang and sent someone to find out who he was. He came to sell goods, but he still found time to come to their academy to visit and give guidance in his busy schedule. Dean Zhang felt that this person was not like the rumors - Fang Zichen's reputation spread far and wide, but everyone with some knowledge also knew that. This person is extremely fond of taking advantage of others, and he won't do it without profit.

But he doesn't think there is any advantage in his Huai'an Academy that others can take advantage of. The reason why the adults are here is probably just to see the literary talent and knowledge of the students in their Huai'an Academy, and to communicate and discuss with them.

Men of letters like this the most.

The rumors are also wrong. How can you describe Xiaoliu Yuan as a philistine who only has an eye for money!

It's simply a slander from the other person.

At this moment, there is no slander. This person is indeed unprofitable and has come to their academy to promote sales. He also brought his son. Seeing how flawlessly the father and son cooperate, this is probably not the first time. A crime has been committed!

Most of the students in Class Jiazi are already in their twenties, and a few have grown up in separate groups. However, in terms of literature, those who are talented come first. Just now, they were respectful to Fang Zichen like a master. Looking at them now, they are quite dumbfounded.

Fang Zichen finished writing and said to everyone: "Meeting is fate. I came in a hurry today and didn't bring any gifts. Come, I will give you a piece of paper each. You are welcome!"

The scholars: "... "..."

Just give a piece of paper as a gift. They can't be polite even if they want to.

After delivering the paper, Fang Zichen led the good boy away. Dean Zhang wanted to see him off, but Fang Zichen waved his hand and said no.

But Zhang Yard was very polite and sent the person outside the gate. Fang Zichen had a good impression of the old man, and now he said seriously:

"Dean Zhang, not everyone can be like a teenager. You still have to do this." Do what you can, and you should take it easy in the future! You're an old man, so don't play too hard. If you need to cut back on your sexual intercourse, you'll be in trouble soon, and I'm afraid you'll be ashamed of yourself. "

"Yes, yes." The good boy also said: "Grandpa, don't tie me up too much, your hands are all black."

Dean Zhang: "..."

On his wrist Some young men were kidnapped by his wife. When Fang Zichen was leading Fang Zichen around the academy, Fang Zichen accidentally saw it and was shocked. He asked him what was going on. When Dean Zhang said that, Fang Zichen's face became intriguing:

"Dean Zhang, please be honest . You really can't be judged by your appearance! I didn't expect you to be so perverted at your age!"

Dean Zhang had nocturnal syndrome. In the past, it was not a big deal when he was young. At most, he would go out for a walk in the yard and then come back. He continued to sleep, but he ran out again during the cold spring night this year. The servant who was keeping watch was dozing off and didn't see him. The steps were slippery, so he didn't pay attention and accidentally fell to the bottom of the steps. After that, he lay in bed for more than half a year.

Later, he was afraid that someone would run out again and something might happen, so his wife would tie a cloth rope around his wrist every night before going to bed. However, a few days ago, he suffered from nocturnal wandering again. As he struggled, the cloth rope accidentally got tighter and tighter, and there was a knot on his wrist. It's a bit green, but it turns out that this guy has a dog's mouth and can't spit out ivory. I don't know what's going on in his head. I think he's pretty good at playing.

Dean Zhang really wanted to punch him.

Seeing that he was gone now, his son was still jumping up and down next to him. Just looking at each other, the two of them looked quite gentle and harmless, but when they spoke, they were really in trouble.

After watching the people return to the carriage, he led several wives back to Jiazi class.

As soon as I arrived outside, I saw that everyone had lost their usual literati calmness and demeanor, and they were discussing intensely with red faces.

"What kind of font is this? I have never seen it before."

"Yes! It looks like it is standing upright on the paper. It is really amazing."

What is this character? How can you still write like this? 'alive' as well.

It's amazing, it's really amazing.

"What's wrong? It's so noisy." Dean Zhang said.

"Dean." Everyone made a way out of the way, and the four powerful words standing on the paper came directly into view - God rewards those who work hard.

Dean Zhang and the wives behind him widened their eyes, and their breathing suddenly became heavy.

Fang Zichen wrote a three-dimensional painting with shadows, which shocked and amazed everyone.

"Dean, you are well-informed, do you know what kind of font this is?"

Dean Zhang had a good eye. He stared at the words for a long time, took a long breath, shook his head and vomited eight words: "Unheard of" , Never seen before."

He carefully picked up the paper and wanted to put it away and have it framed and hung on the college wall, but as soon as he touched the paper, he felt something was wrong.

Looking at it just now, this paper was indeed whiter than the rice paper sold outside, but Dean Zhang didn't worry about it.

If you want to write well, you mostly have to read people. This requires practice and learning, and it has something to do with the kind of paper you use, but it doesn't matter. If you don't have that ability, even if the paper you use is gold-plated, it will just be useless. A waste of natural resources.

Dean Zhang had just thought that Fang Zichen was good at blowing, but as soon as he started using it, it was smooth and not rough, so that the pen tip could move smoothly when writing...

"Did Mr. Fang give you paper? Write to me Words."

As soon as you write it like this, you can immediately feel the difference.

This paper absorbs ink well and does not bleed at all. The writing is very thin and thicker than the paper sold outside. The direction of the ink is very even. It is very comfortable to look at and the writing experience is very good.

It's fine paper!

Fang Zichen came to sell people. If the academy didn't go over and buy some, it would be disrespectful. When Dean Zhang gave it away, he thought it would be fine to ask the academy manager to buy some back later. Now he immediately gave the order, Buy as much as you can.

Seeing this, the other scholars hurriedly tried to write... No,

no, no, where is his book boy? Where did it go? I have to buy two boxes and bring them back before the dean takes action! This paper is simply much better than the ones they used first.

There were many people on the street and the carriage moved slowly. Fang Zichen hadn't even returned to the inn yet. The book boy sent by the group of scholars ran out of the inn dripping with sweat.

Did the caravans who came to Ganzhou to sell paper live here?

Yes!

How do you sell your paper? Zhang Quan didn't even have time to reply. Seeing several acquaintances running behind him, the book boy became anxious and took out the wallet given by his young master, as if urging him to die.

"Give me a hundred taels first, hurry up, hurry up."

"The Hao family is merciful. I treated you to a drink last time! Leave some for me! I'm afraid my young master will scold me if he can't buy it." ."

This was my husband's action. Brother Zhao quickly asked the imperial guards to move the sacks containing rice paper to the backyard.

The paper was already heavy, so the box became even heavier after being packed in it, so Brother Zhao ordered people to put it in clean sacks.

At this moment, several bookboys saw each other, with expressions of 'how could you do this' on their faces.

As soon as a few bookboys bought paper, the steward of Huai'an Academy came. Knowing that Brother Zhao belonged to Fang Zichen's family, his attitude was polite.

After hearing what he said about his visit, Brother Zhao was shocked: "You want them all?"

"Yeah!"

"We have six trucks!"

"So many?"

"Yes!"

"Then, I want one first. Car." The man in charge was shaking when he saw the guards carrying out the goods, almost a dozen sacks.

There are few scholars here, and it is difficult for poor families to produce scholars. Why? In the final analysis, studying is expensive, but why is studying expensive?

Because paper is difficult to make, there are few.

Most paper manufacturers use ramie to make paper, and less often mulberry bark and reed.

Ramie can be used to make paper, but it requires a growing environment and is not distributed in large quantities. In addition, it can also be used to make linen clothes and hemp rope, causing most of the raw materials to be scraped off. Not everyone understands this craft, and it requires layers of process. It's a multi-layer process, and there are only so many people who can do it. It's difficult to do, and if you do it less, it's more expensive if you use more. Moreover, the person in charge has never seen any businessman who can make so many at once.

Six carts of goods, one cart with more than ten bags...

How long has Master Fang been in Ganzhou?

The manager was sweating on his head and talking to Brother Zhao. Brother Zhao saw it and had nothing to say: "There are not many people coming out this time. We still have about ten cars in the paper mill! Hey, uncle, uncle What's wrong with you?"

The steward was carried back to Huai'an Academy by the company's cargo.

When Dean Zhang came over to ask, he thought of fertilizer again and couldn't help but said: "I'm afraid this kid has some special method. If the emperor knows about this, I'm afraid he will have another great achievement!"

Just as he was sighing, a student came knocking on the door. , I asked Mr. Fang if he would come again tomorrow?

They still had some questions, but there were too many people today, so they didn't have to ask them.

Dean Zhang: "..."

I've achieved my goal, but I'm afraid I won't come back.

Next, he probably has to ask a doctor to stay in the academy on standby, otherwise no one will be able to save him if he faints from anger.

Fang Zichen bought candied haws for Guaizi on the road. Guaizi saw that he only bought three skewers and heard that he wanted to take them back to Brother Zhao, so he pulled him: "Father, that's not enough." "

Huh?" Fang Zichen knocked on him. Big brain melon: "You have lost your teeth. It's not good to eat too much sweets."

"Not for the good boy!" The good boy counted for him on his fingers: "There are also Gegudandan and Liuliu."

"You little bamboo horse and two My younger brother went to enjoy the spicy food with Uncle Tang today, so there is no need to buy it for them," Fang Zichen said.

Yan Shizheng, the magistrate of Shangyang, and Qin Hengxuan came from the same school, and both took Confucius Wen as their disciples when they were young.

Although Qin Hengxuan was the son of a military commander, he was taken by his nanny to play in the yard when he was a child. Later, he heard a chicken crow from the kitchen. He sneaked over while the nanny was not paying attention. He happened to run to the door and saw the two cooks inside. While killing the chicken, he stared blankly for two seconds, and then he started to feel dizzy, dizzy, and flustered. His face turned pale, his limbs felt cold, and then he fainted.

Mrs. Qin and the others thought he had some illness, so they hurriedly called the doctor, but the doctor came and said he was fine!

"Then why are you fainting?"

"Maybe you're scared."

General Qin and Mrs. Qin didn't pay attention until Qin Hengxuan was six years old and was taken to the army by General Qin. He saw a soldier who had broken his knee due to careless training. He was bleeding, and he fainted without warning. Now he thought it was heat stroke, but the doctor came and said it wasn't! The eldest young master is in great shape.

Then why are you dizzy?

I can't say I'm scared anymore now!

The doctor couldn't tell, but the young master was really fine.

After Qin Hengxuan woke up, General Qin asked him and he said blood.

General Qin was stunned: "What?"

Qin Hengxuan said, "Dad, blood is scary."

When General Qin heard what he said, it was like being struck by lightning.

Is the legitimate son of a military general afraid of blood? If this news spreads, people in Daxia will not laugh at him, but Dachao Kingdom will probably laugh their heads off.

If you are afraid, then overcome it.

But no, Qin Hengxuan fainted at the sight of blood. He could still see for two seconds before falling to the ground, but his back immediately became so powerful that he rolled his eyes as soon as he saw it. He was so dizzy that he was caught off guard.

There was nothing he could do. General Qin wouldn't let him practice martial arts. But what else could a child do if he didn't practice martial arts? If he stays at home, he will become a playboy. Qin Hengxuan does not love martial arts, but loves literature. He was clamoring to study at first. After careful consideration, General Qin decided to let him study!

But Qin Hengxuan danced too much in the academy. As soon as the master didn't pay attention, he could jump to the roof. He beat everyone without fainting and only had a nosebleed. He took a break by himself. When he woke up, he felt embarrassed. When he went back, he found that General Qin was not there. , immediately coaxed Mrs. Qin, telling him what happened to him at school, how badly he was bullied, and how pitiful he was in the cabbage field, he didn't even notice.

Mrs. Qin immediately led the Qin family's army to the academy. Later she found out that someone was laughing at her behind his back that the son of a general came to study literature and was still bleeding. It was so useless. It really embarrassed the Qin family. General Qin was so famous that he fought in He was invincible and conquered, but he didn't expect that such a waste would be born.

Qin Hengxuan was so angry that he started fighting with someone, but when he saw the bloody man still standing, he fell down.

Although these words were a bit unpleasant to hear, the other person was only nine years old. His hands were still hanging around his neck with a white cloth, his nose was still green, and his face was still swollen. Mrs. Qin returned

to the academy to write a text. Wen Jingjing, a good student, was also encouraged by him to skip classes and have fun. For the sake of General Qin, the academy tolerated him again and again, but finally couldn't bear it anymore, so they politely said that they were incapable. Young Master...it's better to hire someone else, Gao Ming!

After that, General Qin visited several academies for Qin Hengxuan, and also told the master that if the child was naughty again, he would be beaten as he should without looking at him.

But that being said, who dares to really fight!

The legitimate son of the Qin family, what is his identity? When the prince saw him, he had to be polite and didn't dare to offend him. How could they dare to take action? Moreover, Qin Hengxuan's eyes were extremely sharp. With a glance, the master did not dare to say another word.

Old General Qin probably knew about it too. Seeing that Qin Hengxuan had learned nothing, he could only invite the famous Master Wen to come.

At that time, Master Wen had already accepted Yan Shizheng as his disciple, and Qin Hengxuan and Yan Shizheng became senior brothers.

The relationship between the Yan and Qin families was pretty good. Uncle Tang took Gungundan to a restaurant outside for dinner, and happened to meet the Yan family's wife. Uncle Tang was a close friend of Meng Ruqing's, and he was also close to the Yan family's wife. The three of them We had a great conversation, and Mrs. Yan didn't look at Uncle Tang as a person at all. She didn't have any close friends, but she really regarded Uncle Tang as one of her own. She couldn't believe it when she saw him. She called out after seeing Uncle Tang. I really turned my head and confirmed it.

"I heard Ruqing say that you went to Qianzhou, how come you are now..."

"I came with my master and master."

"When did you come?"

"In the middle of the month..." "Uncle Tang lowered his voice when he saw Mrs. Yan's face darkened.

Mrs. Yan complained to him: "Then why didn't you send someone to tell me when you came? You've been here for so many days and you haven't gone to look for me? Is it because you no longer serve Ru Qing, and you don't recognize me?"

Uncle Tang laughed. She said: "Look what you said, I am that kind of person. It's just that the master and the master are busy these days, and I have to take care of the two young masters, so I haven't been able to look for you."

Only then did Mrs. Yan notice the man sitting next to Uncle Tang. Rolling balls, looking at the two little guys who are white, fat, and extremely cute, she immediately fell in love with them, and talked to them carefully. Seeing that the two little guys were not afraid of strangers at all, they had a sweet mouth and a big belly, they called her grandma. , and also pushed the pastry to her, saying that he would share it with her and let her eat it. Mrs. Yan forgot about Uncle Tang on the spot.

After Mrs. Yan 'connected' with Uncle Tang, she often asked Uncle Tang to take a few little ones out. Sometimes she would come to the inn to look for him, and she became familiar with them after going back and forth.

Brother Zhao is diligent and well-behaved, and Mrs. Yan also likes to chat with him. However, Brother Zhao is busy and the inn is noisy, so most of the time Mrs. Yan will take the three little guys out to play, and most of the time she is not in the inn. .

In the next few days, Fang Zichen was wet with rain and dew, and he took his boys to several other academies one by one. The modus operandi was exactly the same. First, he walked around with his hands behind his back, just like the leader, and followed the dean to inspect and inspect, and then started to give advice. , and then said that it was finally here, leaving a few words to encourage everyone, and the good boy started again.

There are rich people and big customers in the academy. They buy half a bag at a time and go back and forth. The paper sells faster than instant noodles.

After he stopped going to the academy to sell, Master Yan brought Mrs. Yan over.

When Fang Zichen entered the city, the officers and soldiers guarding the city reported it to Yan Shizheng. Yan Shizheng didn't pay much attention to it, but later Mrs. Yan went back and followed him in shock, patting her chest and saying that she had seen him. Like it.

Like who?

Like Ruqing, he is exactly the same, and the boy is very quirky, with big eyes and a pink mouth. He looks so good-looking. No wonder the Qin family likes him.

When Yan Shizheng heard this, he knew that 90% of the time the person the guard was talking about might be the young master of a certain noble family, it was probably Fang Zichen. He rushed to the inn as soon as he found out. It was not to curry favor with him. They were of equal rank, but Fang Zichen was a new noble and was highly regarded by the emperor. He did not dare to neglect him at all. However, he came here twice and did not meet him. When he found out that he had been hawking in the academy in recent days, he didn't know what to do. What expression to make.

Who is a prefect like him?

It's simply not doing the job properly.

At this time, after a few pleasantries, Yan Shizheng said that his grandson would be one month old tomorrow, so he asked Fang Zichen if he could take Brother Zhao and a few children over to sit there for a while. It would be lively.

If it weren't for the fact that he was selling goods on someone else's territory, Fang Zichen would have refused.

joke.

Can I go empty-handed with this kind of full moon wine?

If someone has a high official position, it would be disrespectful and disrespectful to give someone less.

The gift was too expensive and his heart was bleeding, and he didn't want to make friends with others. After all, he was exhausted mentally and physically from working hard to make money to support his family, and he really didn't have the energy to form good relationships with others.

But I have to go this time. In the human territory, I have to give people face, and my wife and Uncle Tang are friends, so I have to go!

Brother Zhao and Uncle Tang went out to buy a gift, a bracelet that was so golden that Fang Zichen found it dazzling.

Even this was not enough. For fear of being rude, Brother Zhao also brought two pieces of cloth - given by the Qin family.

Offerings in the river.

Uncle Tang brought it because he thought he could make winter coats for several children in his spare time so that they could wear them on the way back and buy less. The boy is not very tall and can still wear last year's winter coats, but he is so miserable. , last year's clothes were already tight, and I had good cloth at home, so I had to buy it from outside. A few pieces of cloth didn't take up much space, so Uncle Tang brought them.

On the day when the grandson of the Yan family was one month old, Zhao Geer asked Zhang Quan to take the lead in selling goods. He, Uncle Tang and their four children went to the Yan Mansion with Fang Zichen.

I took Liuliu along with me just to show him the world. If there were more people and more meals, I could make some money back. Originally, Fang Zichen wanted to ask Brother Zhou and Zhang Quan to go with them, but these two people were too shameless. Not as thick as him. Watching a group of them heading to Yan's Mansion, Brother Zhou vaguely felt that Fang Zichen's behavior was a bit like when he was in the village. When someone held a wedding, the digger gave him a handful of dried vegetables, and then... The whole family went to have a meal.

I'm afraid I won't be able to eat this food if I don't have a thick skin.

It would be really embarrassing if he followed him.

The author has something to say:

The good boy is going to meet his beautiful uncle later...

Chapter 412

Fang Zichen is shameless and invincible, and he doesn't feel embarrassed at all.

It's not like he was rushing there.

And the gift he gave was not a handful of dried vegetables.

Upon arriving at Yan's Mansion, Brother Zhao, Uncle Tang and several children were led to the backyard. Fang Zichen was led by Yan Shizheng to the main hall, where many people were already sitting.

Fang Zichen came to Shangyang without much fanfare, but in the past few days, he was popping up everywhere in major academies, and all the top people in Shangyang knew that Lord Fang was coming to Shangyang.

When he saw him being led in by Yan Shizheng himself, he immediately stood up and said respectfully without asking,

"I've met Mr. Fang."

Fang Zichen waved his hands: "You're welcome, you're welcome, please sit down. !"

Yan Shizheng introduced them to each other. There were many people, but most of them were Yan Shizheng's subordinates. Several deans of the academy also came. When they saw Fang Zichen, they all hid behind them. Go, not daring to approach Fang Zichen at all. The other people were vaguely puzzled when they saw these deans acting like this.

You must know that during such a banquet earlier, these people were all talking about Mr. Fang, saying that he was great. The answer sheets from the Provincial Examination Office were leaked out. After reading them, several people kept saying yes, and then Sighing, he said he didn't know if he would have the chance to see the No. 1 scholar in person and have some discussions with him in this life.

What's wrong now? Are they still hiding when people come? Why don't you surround me?

Could it be that Mr. Fang went to the academy a few days ago and finished chatting with these people? Have nothing to say? But it's not possible! These elders are the best at talking. With the first verse, the two of them could chat all night long.

But it just so happened that these people hid, waiting for the adults such as Tongzhi and Tongsheng to finish greeting each other. Since there were fewer people, they could just go forward and fawn over them.

Dean Zhang watched everyone flattering Fang Zichen, thinking that he would definitely be angry with Fang Zichen later, but in the end, he found that everyone was having a good chat with Fang Zichen, and his eyes were red.

Fang Zichen still had the same mouth, and some of his words were still unpleasant to listen to, but he didn't classify people into different categories. He could chat with everyone without missing a beat, had no airs, and was approachable.

Their official positions are not high, and they have been flattering for most of their lives. They look at the faces of their superiors everywhere, and few people look at them seriously. In this officialdom, there are many people who flatter the superiors and suppress the inferiors. They have no status, and no one in the past is interested. The one who has to deal with them is Master Yan. Although he will invite them to banquets like this before, every time he comes, the only people who can talk to him are Tongzhi, Tongpan and a few deans.

Master Yan had no time to pay attention to them, let alone greet them with such concern.

But what an official Mr. Fang is! At this moment, I saw that one of them had a bald head, with a very sad expression. He patted that person on the shoulder and said, "You look too ugly. It's hard to find a wife with a bald head! Do you have a wife?"

"Yes, yes."

"Oh, that's good." Fang Zichen said, "How old are you?" " Ah!

"

Fang Zichen held his hand. You are too anxious to grow up! And your hair is falling out too much. You are almost bald at a young age. Is it because you are under too much pressure at work? "

This official should pay attention to his health. He was so moved that Lord Fang was caring about him. How could he be so worthy of being so concerned about him! He felt happy and sour at the same time.

Fang Zichen also asked and cared about the people around them one by one. Yan Shizheng's eyelids were twitching. He felt that if Fang Zichen said something at this moment, his subordinates would probably follow his lead and run away with him. Go to the continent.

...

Yan Shizheng was a high-ranking official in Shangyang, and the mansion he lived in was naturally spacious. Many people came with their families. Mrs. Yan wanted a few children to go play with others in the garden, but when she saw them, they all went away. , was a little reluctant to leave, and wanted to send them there in person, so she asked the maid to lead Brother Zhao and Uncle Tang to sit in the backyard.

There were a lot of ladies in the room, and Brother Zhao didn't recognize any of them, but everyone knew who he was, and his attitude was very enthusiastic. Some of the ladies he knew well even clapped his hands and said he was lucky.

Some people asked him what he usually does. It would be boring in Quzhou. They just wanted to get some information. Brother Zhao could tell that he didn't do anything, just built a few factories at home. On weekdays, he would go over to help, and when the time came, he would come back to cook for the children.

Everyone listened for a while.

This... isn't this like a peasant woman in the village?

There is no need for them to do these things. These jobs are all done by servants. They usually just listen to music and show off flowers. When they are bored, they hang out and chat about clothes, jewelry or the children at home.

I heard that Mr. Fang was abducted when he was young and grew up in the village. I am afraid he will be able to do these menial jobs...

When I looked at Brother Zhao, I couldn't help but look at him with a little contempt.

Can you still be the master like this? Before coming to Yan Mansion, the master had told him to please Mrs. Fang, but he was just a brother, and he felt somewhat uncomfortable. Now that he heard that he was inferior to them in everything, yet they had to do the opposite. Rushing to please others makes me feel even worse.

Brother Zhao saw it, but didn't say anything.

He is naturally different from these well-educated and well-educated young ladies. He can't play the piano or draw, but he can work. As long as your husband doesn't mind him.

He didn't care, but Uncle Tang was very angry. But before he could say anything, a woman came in surrounded by two maids.

The people in the room hurriedly bowed and said, "I've met Mrs. Tang."

Tang's voice was calm: "Get up!" She was the eldest daughter of the second room of the Yan family, and the Yan family came here often. At this moment, she subconsciously wanted to go to where she usually sits. When I went to my seat, I saw a young man sitting above me.

Da Xia didn't have to wear her hair in a bun after getting married, and her clothes were the same as those in her boudoir, so there was nothing special about them.

Brother Zhao has a round face. He eats well. His cheeks are a little chubby. The baby fat is very obvious. Round faces make him look smaller. At this moment, no one knows that he is the father of three children unless they tell others. .

Tang's brows immediately frowned, and the women next to her didn't dare to speak.

Who doesn't know this Mrs. Tang? She has a fierce temper and loves to show off, and her husband's family can't stand it. The master of the Yan family passed away twenty years ago, and Mrs. Tang came back to observe mourning. The married girl only had to observe mourning for three months, while the younger brother of the family only had to observe mourning for three years. No marriage, no scientific examination allowed.

Master Tang was busy with official duties and could not stay for three months. She wanted to return to Beijing early. Mrs. Tang felt that Master Tang was really making her lose face in her family. She felt unhappy and had a quarrel with others. Later, after three months, she did not return. Beijing, Naqiao wanted Master Tang to pick her up in person, but after waiting and waiting, Master Tang never came. Later, when she returned to Beijing alone, she found that Master Tang had taken another concubine.

This move was not appropriate. Mr. Tang was naturally read by Yan Guan. The person who came in was still a brother, and he was the only one favored by Mr. Tang. In the past six months since Mrs. Tang had been away, Mr. Tang actually gave full power to the Tang Mansion. Leave it to that brother. Mrs. Tang is naturally angry, but there is nothing she can do about it. There is no point in making trouble. It is true that the Yan family does not dare to offend Master Tang because of the support of the Qin family, but Mrs. Tang is too narrow-minded. It was really not a good thing. She found an excuse for the two bastards in the backyard of the Tang Mansion to be punished by her servants. One was beaten so badly that his legs were disabled, and the other was only three years old. He accidentally bumped into her while playing in the yard. , and was slapped deafened by her mouth.

Mrs. Tang also wanted to put pressure on her parents' family. Mr. Tang couldn't bear it anymore and wrote a letter to the Yan family in person, not to the second bedroom, but to the eldest bedroom.

To marry a virtuous wife, Mr. Tang listed all her "crimes" and said that it would be difficult for the Tang family to keep her. You can do whatever you want!

The head of the Yan family sent someone back to Beijing to check the authenticity, and then wrote to Mr. Tang, saying that he would let him go.

The Yan family is righteous. Mr. Tang finally divorced his wife for the sake of the two families' reputation. However, Mrs. Tang followed the brother in a fight and failed to win. In the end, she took her son back to the Yan family in despair. This time, it was seventeen years ago. for a long time.

So she usually hates her brother when she sees him.

"Whose brother are you from?"

There was a hint of disgust in her voice. Brother Zhao said firmly: "

He is from the Zhao family in the capital ." One person mocked and said angrily: "From the Zhao Song family?"

"Yes."

Mrs. Tang narrowed her eyes and said in a cold voice: "I am Mrs. Honglu Temple Qing. Your brother, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, met me. Why? Don't you want to worship? "

Zhao Song was a bachelor's degree scholar at the Hanlin Academy more than ten years ago, which is a fourth-grade official position.

But more than ten years have passed, and now he is a third-rank official, and Mr. Tang is still on his feet!

Brother Zhao didn't fight his father: "My husband is a third-grade civil servant and foreign official, and the Minister of Honglu Temple is only a fourth-grade official. Why should I worship you?"

Mrs. Tang: "..."

"Why don't you worship me?" "Brother Zhao looked at her.

Mrs. Tang was so angry that she was trembling all over. The hand she pointed at Brother Zhao was trembling. Her mouth moved. She subconsciously wanted to move the Yan family out, but she didn't say anything.

Yan Shizheng was only a third-rank official, of the same rank as others, and he had always been cold and indifferent to her cousin. He first wanted to give his son a certain errand, but she was lying, and her brother Tang didn't agree. It was useless to say anything at this moment, but being treated so humiliatingly in front of everyone by her brother really made her angry. Mrs. Yan happened to come in, and Mrs. Tang immediately seemed to have found a supporter: "Sister-in-law..." "

Mrs. Yan ignored her and sat directly in front of Brother Zhao. She touched the flowers on her head and said to Brother Zhao with a smile: "Brother Zhao, your little boy has such an amazing little mouth."

I just sent Guaizi and the others to play with other children in the yard. Guaizi saw the flowers blooming perfectly and asked if he could pick them. He wanted to give it to his younger brother. Mrs. Yan said yes, so the good boy picked two flowers. Probably because he was embarrassed to take advantage of others, the good boy picked another one, waved to Mrs. Yan to squat down, and then put the flowers on her head. Compliment her on her beauty.

Mrs. Yan was happy and kissed him. Unexpectedly, the boy's face turned red. He lowered his head, squirmed at his clothes and spoke righteously, asking Mrs. Yan if she fell in love with him, and then begged her not to. Fall in love with him, otherwise he will be in trouble, after all, he has let down too many people.

Dandan added to the chaos: "Grandma Yan, don't be like this. You are so old. It will be very troublesome for Dandan to have such a big sister-in-law!"

Liuliu and Gungun nodded.

Mrs. Yan was smiling almost all the way back, and now her stomach twitched when she talked about it.

The other women didn't see the child, but they still flattered her wherever possible.

"I saw that Mr. Fang was so well-behaved, and I thought the next three children should be the same."

Seeing that this man had taken the lead, the others immediately followed suit, fearing that all the good things to say would be lost. No one paid attention to her, turned around and left bitterly.

Mrs. Yan glanced at it lightly and didn't care. When this man was in the capital, he had been friends with the eldest daughter of the Meng family. When he knew that he was beheaded, he also cursed Meng Ruqing many times - the eldest sister who was a direct descendant and had been with him for ten years. A few years ago, when he accidentally did something wrong and the Qin family wanted to kill someone, he didn't help and begged for mercy. He was really callous.

Mrs. Yan followed Meng Ruqing, so she no longer had to deal with Mrs. Tang.

The eldest daughter-in-law was busy in the front, so Mrs. Yan didn't have to worry. She was waiting for the younger daughter-in-law to bring the child over. Everyone gathered around and praised her, regardless of their sincerity. Anyway, the backyard was lively and bustling, but the front yard was quiet. quiet.

There was a banquet at noon, and while we were eating, the housekeeper of the Yan Mansion hurried in from outside, looking anxious, and shouted: "Master."

The wealthy family is the most observant of the rules. At this time, there were several tables of guests, and the housekeeper's behavior was really rude. Unless something big happens.

Somehow, Fang Zichen's heart skipped a beat.

It couldn't be...

the housekeeper leaned down/in Yan Shizheng's ear, and didn't know what he said, but saw Yan Shizheng's expression suddenly changed, and he followed the housekeeper in a hurry without saying anything.

I'm afraid something big happened.

Everyone looked at each other and didn't dare to move their chopsticks. Seeing everyone like this, Fang Zichen couldn't eat alone, so he had to put down his chopsticks and look outside eagerly - he didn't know if it was what he thought. If so, Yan Yan The old man probably won't be back until later. It's a bit cold now, and the food on the table won't taste good if it's oily.

Why!

Yan Shizheng returned to the study, and Qin Yizheng was standing inside. He was about to salute when he saw him. Yan Shizheng waved his hand to stop him, and asked calmly: "You said something happened to General Qin, are you serious?" "

Yes?" "Qin Yi took the letter out of his pocket and handed it to me with both hands: "This is what my eldest son sent me."

Yan Shizheng was sweating all the way over, so he opened the letter and read it.

General Qin was seriously injured two days ago in a battle with the Dachao army at the Canyon Ridge along the river. In this battle, the Qin army was defeated, with nearly 2,000 casualties.

In a war, you don't always have to wait for the opponent to launch an attack. When the time is ripe, you have to take the initiative.

Moreover, the longer the war lasts and the longer the support is taken, the more it will be the common people who will suffer in the end.

General Qin naturally wanted to resolve the war as soon as possible.

A detachment of the Great Chao Army was stationed in Huaihe Mausoleum, with nearly 30,000 people. After discussion, General Qin decided to lead his troops through the canyon to wipe out this detachment first. However, as soon as the troops arrived at the canyon, they were ambushed.

Tens of thousands of flying arrows were shot at them from the tops of the mountains on both sides. Although General Qin immediately ordered everyone to line up for defense, the leader was unexpected and many people were injured or killed, but it was not over yet.

The Qin family's army resisted with shields, and the arrows did not hurt anyone at all. The imperial army launched a second 'attack'.

A large number of oiled and burning bundles of firewood were thrown into the canyon by the imperial army. Within a few moments, thick smoke billowed in the canyon and flames shot into the sky.

As soon as the clothes were touched by flames, they immediately burned. The soldiers screamed and rolled on the ground, trying to 'put out' the fire on their bodies, but without the shield to protect them, countless arrows flew away with the sound of the fierce wind. Coming, the screams soon stopped again.

In just a moment, the ground was filled with people, the soldiers' bodies were burning, their abdomens and backs were filled with arrows, and the blood instantly dyed the entire canyon red.

There was a sea of ​​fire everywhere.

Betrayed!

Someone leaked military information.

General Qin reacted and immediately called for retreat.

But it was too late. As soon as he finished speaking, there were a few rumbles and countless boulders rolled down from the top of the mountain, blocking the way back.

If there is no way out, we can only rush forward.

The Imperial Army seemed to be trying to make dumplings. Ah You led his troops and charged in from the front. The two armies fought in the canyon.

General Qin is a general after all. He went to the battlefield with his father when he was nine years old. He has experienced countless battles, big and small. Some were chased by the enemy, some narrowly escaped death and fought for most of their lives, and some were brought with them. He fought with tens of thousands of people, but only brought back a thousand or so in the end. He crawled through a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood. He had seen no matter how severe the situation was. At the moment, he was calm and calm in the face of danger. He swiped his spear and directly cut down the enemy. The head of Jun Yi's minions.

The battle lasted for nearly two hours, with wailing sounds echoing throughout the canyon.

Thick smoke rose from the canyon into the sky.

Both sides suffered heavy casualties. General Qin finally led the vanguard to fight a bloody path. When he was about to hold off the enemy troops and let the wounded soldiers below retreat first, Lieutenant General Lu suddenly stabbed him with a spear.

After all, the Qin family is not easy to mess with.

Probably because Mrs. Qin's suspicion had been aroused before, Lieutenant General Lu did not dare to move his family away. It was not until the day of the war that the Lu family moved north with their family.

Externally, it is said that he is returning to his hometown - Lu's ancestral home is in Linjiangzhou, Linjiangzhou is close to Qinzhou, and beyond Qinzhou is Qianzhou.

Lieutenant General Lu had a good idea. As long as General Qin died, the Qin family's army would be in chaos. As long as he teamed up with the imperial army to keep all the Qin family's army here in Canyon Ridge, then the Lu family would be safe. But in order to ensure that anything happened , he still sent a letter to his family instructing them to leave Hengyang the night before departure. As long as they left Hengyang, someone would pick them up.

If the Lu family does not go towards the Great Chao Kingdom, the Qin family will probably not have any doubts. Moreover, because of the long distance, the Lu family will always return to their hometown to worship their ancestors every three years. If they set out in November, they can Arrive at Linjiangzhou before New Year's Eve.

Daxia mostly carries out ancestor worship activities on the four festivals of New Year's Eve, Qingming, Double Ninth Festival and Zhongyuan Festival. Hengyang is customary to hold ancestor worship on New Year's Eve and Qingming Festival. The same is true in Linjiangzhou. Everyone knows this. Yes, this year happens to be the third year. The Lu family is leaving now. No one doubts that this is the time that Vice General Lu has been waiting for.

But first, Mrs. Qin had vaguely felt that something was wrong with him, and secretly sent people to guard the Lu family. Now that they were returning home, they were heading north. Mrs. Qin did not doubt it, but after hearing Qin San's report, the Lu family's elders When the second daughter-in-law followed her back, Mrs. Qin felt something was wrong.

The second daughter-in-law of the Lu family was about to give birth...

This time, Vice General Lu and his three sons all followed him to the battle - Mrs. Qin immediately asked Qin Hengyi to lead troops to catch up.

At that time, General Qin had already led his troops and set off.

After Qin Hengyi fell down last time, he woke up in an even worse state than before, so General Qin didn't let him follow him into the battle this time.

The border between Daxia and Dachao is more than twenty miles long. The longer it is, the more difficult it is to defend. At this time, two deputy generals, Lin and Feng, led their troops to inspect. Mrs. Qin was worried about leaving it to others. In the end, she still Let Qin Hengyi lead the troops in person.

When Qin Hengyi arrived, General Qin was seriously injured and dying, and was being protected by Qin Er and the others.

If Mrs. Qin hadn't mentioned it first, and when the matter was discussed in the camp, there were only General Qin himself, and the three deputy generals Qin Hengxuan, Meng Ruqing, Lu, Lin, and Feng, then who was it? Leaked?

It can't be his Qin family, so it can only be the three lieutenants.

General Qin immediately became wary of Lieutenant General Lu and kept a sharp eye on him. After many years of fighting, Lieutenant General Lu shrewdly avoided the moment he made a sneak attack from behind, otherwise the spear would have hit his heart. But he was still injured after all, the spear almost penetrated his entire chest.

Qin Hengyi personally led the troops, but the imperial army failed to keep General Qin behind.

Knowing that Lieutenant General Lu had rebelled, the Lu family would definitely be in trouble.

All those who were related to the Lu family were arrested, but the Lu family had already left Hengyang. They didn't know where they were now. If they received the news, they would probably hide.

Now that the two countries are at war, the Qin family really can't dispatch any extra manpower, so Qin Hengxuan issued documents to several surrounding towns, and all people entering and leaving the city are strictly inspected.

No one from the Lu family can be spared.

Afraid of unstable public sentiment, the news that General Qin was seriously injured could not be spread.

Knowing that the person was indeed injured, even though he was not awake now, Yan Shizheng breathed a long sigh of relief. At the same time, his legs were almost weak, but the housekeeper supported him in time.

"Master, are you okay?"

"It's okay." Yan Shizheng didn't dare to delay. According to what was written in the letter, it had only been six days. According to the distance, the Lu family might have already left Shangyang, but all the men in the Lu family who were over 18 were already in Shangyang. After arriving at the battlefield, most of the people left were old, weak, women and children. The road might be slower. He did not dare to delay and said: "Pass my order..."

There were twenty-three members of the Lu family, and their portraits were almost all posted. All over the city.

What's going on?

Oops, you still don't know, I heard that Lieutenant General Lu rebelled.

What? Real or fake?

Everyone was afraid that they heard wrongly and couldn't believe it.

Although Lu Zhanqin is not as famous as General Qin, he is still somewhat famous.

He went to the battlefield with General Qin and protected them for decades, how could he rebel?

One person gritted his teeth and his eyes were red: "The government has ordered the arrest of people, how can we still have a lie? I heard that our old General Qin led troops to fight, and was made dumplings by the Imperial Army in Canyon Ridge. Lieutenant General Lu leaked military information, causing our Qin family soldiers to There are nearly 2,000 casualties! More than 2,000 people! "

The border is only six days away from Shangyang. Those who are well-informed already know what is happening on the front line.

Although a total of two thousand people were injured and killed, it is said that those who were injured were burned beyond recognition. Their hair and clothes were all burned away, they could not speak, and their whole bodies were burned to pieces, making them unrecognizable. So and so, even though he was carried back, he was so seriously injured, could he survive it?

Those who didn't make it through, some died halfway through the journey, and some couldn't bear the pain and died alive.

More than two thousand lives! !

But Vice General Lu has been fighting with General Qin for many years, why would he do this?

There are still people who don't want to believe it, but they can't believe it. As soon as this news came out, the people in Hengyang were excited and couldn't believe it. They immediately rushed to the Lu Mansion, but the door of the Lu Mansion was closed tightly. No one answered when they called, and everyone smashed it. After entering the door, I was dumbfounded when I got inside. The Lu family was completely empty.

Lieutenant General Lu's rebellion was completely confirmed.

The people around him were stunned for a moment, and then they suddenly became so angry that their whole bodies were about to burst into flames. They were filled with indignation and tears welled up in their eyes, and they immediately cursed at the portrait of the Lu family.

The Lu family should go to hell and into the oil pan, you beasts!

Rebellious ministers and traitors will be rewarded if reported. Not to mention taking the money, even if there is no such person, they will definitely not let it go if they see it.

Traitors are punishable, and the people are extremely angry. Don't let the Lu family see them, or they will peel off their skin and twitch their muscles.

No one asked why Lieutenant General Lu rebelled. No matter what the reason, it was unforgivable.

More than two thousand people were killed or injured! Even if the entire Lu family is buried with him, it can't make up for it.

This incident immediately caused a sensation. The common people were cursing and running around to tell each other - go to the Yamen and the city gate to 'identify the people' and remember those beasts from the Lu family. If you run into them in the future, you will beat them up. If you can't beat him, just shout.

After Yan Shizheng issued the order, he had no intention of returning to the banquet.

Chapter 413

Yan Shizheng asked General Qin carefully about his situation.

Qin Yi said that General Qin was seriously injured this time and he is still awake.

These words made Yan Shizheng extremely worried. He had no intention of going back to the front yard, but the housekeeper reminded him to go back. If Mr. Fang was not here, everyone else would be busy working, so it would not be a big deal if the reception was not good, but There is also Mr. Fang at this moment!

You must not be rude.

Yan Shizheng had no choice but to gather his energy and go back to the table. Fang Zichen saw that he was back, but his face was gloomy, as if someone owed him five million and hadn't paid back. Everyone had been in the officialdom for decades, and they were observing their words. He still had some skills. He knew that no one was in the mood to entertain them, so after eating two mouthfuls of food, he excused himself that there was something going on at home, said goodbye and went back.

Yan Shizheng didn't keep anyone, he just said that the reception was not good this time and he would invite him again next time.

However, Fang Zichen did not leave. He pulled up a stool and sat next to him: "Master Yan, is there something happened at the border?"

He asked firmly. Yan Shizheng looked at him in surprise. Fang Zichen said: "I guessed wrong. "

Yan Shizheng has been an official for decades, and he has never seen any big storms! What could make him lose his composure was that apart from the war, Fang Zichen didn't do anything he wanted to do.

Yan Shizheng sighed, this man is really keen on the actual situation!

The Qin family has a good relationship with Fang Zichen, and there is nothing to hide about this matter. Presumably, if the other party knows about it, he will not go out and do nothing about it, so Yan Shizheng said so.

It was undeniable that he was really frightened when he heard the butler report this matter.

Old General Qin is the strongest pillar of Daxia. Once this pillar falls, Daxia may be on the verge of collapse. You can imagine what will happen next.

How could he not be worried? But as soon as he said these words, he found that Fang Zichen's face turned pale.

Yan Shizheng: "..."

Is Master Fang so unafraid?

Yan Shizheng originally thought about the young man, fearing that he would bear the pressure. Now that he is better, he himself has to comfort others.

"Don't be afraid. Old General Qin was injured, but there should be no fear for his life. Moreover, Mr. Fang is serving in Quzhou, even if..." He paused at this, and seemed to feel that something was wrong. The words came out unpleasantly, so he sighed and changed his words: "Quzhou is thousands of miles away from Dachao. Even if Dachao wants to attack, it can't reach Quzhou. Please relax."

Be calm.

Fang Zichen couldn't feel relieved, and he was beating so hard now, like a drum, making a thumping sound.

It's just because he works in Ganzhou that he's afraid!

If something happens to Old General Qin, small countries such as Da Liang and Beiqi will probably not be able to sit still for a moment and will attack in a hurry!

At the moment, the Qin family only said that they had lost the battle and did not say that General Qin was seriously injured. Because they said that the people's hearts were unstable. What would happen if the people's hearts were unstable?

There is going to be chaos - especially Hengyang, Shangyang and other places. These two places are close to the border. Old General Qin is dying, and the people of the imperial court may attack him soon. Run away!

How can one escape without food or money?

Then go grab it.

Even if there is no robbery, the people will move in large numbers, and Hengyang and Shangyang will be paralyzed.

The rear must be stable.

Therefore, the people of Great Xia did not understand the matter of Old General Qin being injured, but the people of Great Dynasty must understand. If false news were sent to Great Liang at this time, once the north and south of Great Xia were attacked from both sides and fought at the same time, the soldiers and horses would be How long can food and grass last?

If Great Liang, Beiqi and other countries were smarter, they would never attack before the news was confirmed.

But what if Great Liang and Beiqi are too impatient? After all, I have been jealous of Daxia for a long time.

Fang Zichen didn't even dare to think about it.

He has only been in office for two years and has three more years before he can return to Beijing!

Yan Shizheng was also worried, but not as much as Fang Zichen. People outside always said that the eldest and second young masters of the Qin family were not good, but in fact, Qin Hengxuan was not only fainting from blood and unable to go to the battlefield, but he was also brave and resourceful when he was serious. The second young master of the Qin family is good at fighting. The reason why he is said to be useless is because the old general Qin shines so brightly that both his sons are invisible.

Yan Shizheng knew that these two people were quite capable, but...the second child of the Qin family was as stupid as a child now. If nothing happened to him, Yan Shizheng wouldn't have to worry so much.

Twenty years ago, when the people of the great dynasty tore up the treaty and broke through the defense line to attack, more than a dozen villages along the border were all massacred!

Yan Shizheng could only hope that Qin Hengxuan and the two deputy generals Lin and Feng could stabilize the situation. Otherwise, once the border fell, according to the character of Dachao, Daxia would probably be in ruins!

Fang Zichen couldn't eat anymore, so he managed to eat three bowls. However, Gungundandan and Guaizai ate until their bellies were full. Liuliu couldn't do it anymore. I heard Brother Zhao said that he was full after just two bowls of rice. Fang Zichen looked like he hated the iron. Look at him.

After returning from Yan's Mansion, Fang Zichen immediately asked Zhang Quan to check the goods. They were almost sold and there was not much left.

Fang Zichen thought for a while and planned to leave immediately.

Brother Zhao saw that he seemed to be in a hurry, so he asked after returning to his room: "Did something happen?"

"Yes." Fang Zichen said, "Something happened to General Qin."

"What?" Brother Zhao became worried. : "What happened?"

"He was attacked by his subordinates during the war." Fang Zichen shook his head, with a solemn look on his face: "I heard that he was stabbed in the chest, and no one is awake yet! He is over fifty. He's injured so badly. I'm worried... I don't know the specific situation there, but we have to go back to Ganzhou as soon as possible. I'm afraid that Da Liang and the others will call after they receive the news. "

Although there is . The Northwest Army is here, but if there really is a fight, Quzhou is close to Jizhou, so I am afraid there will be some setbacks. As the prefect of Yizhou, he has to go back and take charge! Otherwise, if something happens and he is not here, he will be leaving his post without permission. Even if there is someone above him, he will have to walk around without food.

He knew where Xia Jinghong's bottom line was, and he also knew where his own bottom line was.

The good boy on the side suddenly paused after hearing this. He was at a loss as he held the candied haws in his hand. He was panic-stricken. He carefully tugged on Brother Zhao's sleeve: "Dad, Grandpa Qin is injured." " Yes

! But it's okay, don't be afraid."

Brother Zhao reassured him and then went out to tell everyone to pack up and go back tomorrow.

Although it was a bit rushed, the goods were small and not difficult to organize.

In the evening, Brother Zhao went to give Gungundan a bath. Today at the Yan Mansion, the four little guys were played with by the Yan family for a long time. When they came back, they were all sweaty. The way we came, we definitely had to stay outside at night, so I might as well take a shower today while I can!

Brother Zhao was busy, and Fang Zichen was not idle either. He was packing things in the house. Several children's toys were scattered everywhere, and he was picking them up and throwing them into sacks. The good boy lay down behind Fang Zichen, holding his arms tightly with both hands. neck.

When he came back in the afternoon, he followed Brother Zhao to talk about General Qin without avoiding the good boy. After hearing this, the guy was not very happy and worried.

Fang Zichen stopped picking up the toy and turned around to hold him in his arms: "What's wrong with my little baby?"

The good boy rubbed his face with him and said, "Grandpa is injured."

Fang Zichen paused, looked at him carefully, and pretended not to understand: "Then what?"

The boy's eyes were red, tears welling up in his eyes: "The boy doesn't want grandpa to get hurt, father, the boy misses the grandfather."

Fang Zichen: "... ····"

There is nothing we can do!

He can't change people.

Fang Zichen could only comfort Erzai, saying that General Qin was blessed with great fortune and would not be cold.

Seeing that the good boy was still unhappy, he had no choice but to take some money and take him to eat chicken in a restaurant outside. Now, it is estimated that only delicious food can soothe his little heart.

The good boy ate happily, and when Fang Zichen looked over, he smiled brightly, looking harmless to humans and animals. After making two chickens, he came back and climbed into bed to sleep, but he suddenly stood up again.

"Dad, father."

"What are you doing again?" Fang Zichen raised his hand to touch his little belly and asked, "You're full, are you holding on?"

Good boy: "No, there are only two chickens, how can they hold on? ?"

Fang Zichen: "..."

Only a humble person can say such a thing.

"Then what do you want to do? Still not sleeping? You should get more sleep, otherwise you won't be qualified to be a dwarf."

"Good boy wants to see grandpa." Good boy said firmly.

Brother Zhao stood up and hugged him. He didn't say no directly, but just made it clear to him: "But your father doesn't have time anymore."

Fang Zichen: "..."

"Damn, how can you talk like this! "Fang Zichen patted Brother Zhao and said, "It sounds like I'm going to die."

Brother Zhao quickly changed his words and told the good boy about the current situation. The good boy didn't make a fuss after hearing this. He lowered his head and shook his head. Putting on his clothes, he thought of Fang Zichen's sad look when he said this at noon. Grandpa Qin must have been seriously injured. After a while, he seemed to make up his mind and said, "Then can you go by yourself, good boy?" He said: " My dear, I'm really worried about grandpa."

"This..." Brother Zhao couldn't make up his mind. But Guaizi looked like he was determined to leave.

The Qin family has been exchanging letters with Guaizai over the years. Zhao Song's weight in Guaizai's heart is probably not as high as that of the Qin family.

Although Zhao Song loved Guaizai, he would not let Guaizai and his grandchildren ride on his neck. At most, he would hug him more diligently, but General Qin knew how. When he was in the Qin Mansion, he would He often lets the boy sit on his shoulders and play with him.

And it's not just because of this reason. Although Guaizi didn't have much contact with the Qin family, during that time, the Qin family really devoted all their love to Guaizi. You can see clearly, not to mention the good boy.

Every time Qin Hengxuan and Meng Ruqing replied to their letters, there would occasionally be Old General Qin, whose words were clearly filled with longing for them.

It was far away and inconvenient at that time, but now in Shangyang, it is much closer, and Guaizi feels that he has grown up and is a man, and he is not afraid to go alone.

Brother Zhao was silent.

The Qin family has been very kind to them over the years, and they have given them gifts and shops. Now...

"Husband, the child wants to go."

Fang Zichen picked up the good boy under his arm and said, "You want to go." I have to go alone! My father has to go back quickly, otherwise our family will be in trouble. Are you afraid that you won't be able to see your father and dad? Are you crying?"

"Oh! Father, why are you asking me this? You guys are all men. You have to marry me next year. If you hadn't spent all the money you saved, your grandson would be a big man. , Why are you still crying?"

The good boy pouted and his little feet were dangling: "Father, don't underestimate the good boy!"

Brother Zhao couldn't help laughing when he heard this and pinched his little butt.

The good boy also laughed.

Fang Zichen was a little choked. This damn kid thinks about puppy love every day: "Then you won't be afraid if you meet a bad guy?"

The good boy clenched his fists: "Don't be afraid. If there are bad people, the good boy will fart to death. Him."

Fang Zichen stopped talking and coaxed him to sleep before discussing with Brother Zhao.

Now that the border is in chaos and he is not around, Fang Zichen is inevitably a little worried about letting his children go there alone.

But Guaizi has this kind of heart and is filial. Every time General Qin writes a letter, he reads it, and every word is filled with concern.

If he doesn't let the child go now, he has no conscience. Moreover, he was more pleased that the good boy could say such things. If he knew clearly, but the good boy still didn't say anything and didn't want to visit anyone, then he would have to worry about it when he gets old.

"How about you go with him!" Fang Zichen said: "Let Zhang Quan follow you, I will go back to Ganzhou first."

Brother Zhao thought for a while: "I will go back with you."

The first shipment was sold well , I will naturally increase mass production when I go back, but the price they sell is high, so the purchase price of sweet potatoes and wheat will naturally have to be adjusted up.

Otherwise, when the people find out, they may feel unbalanced.

If a fight really breaks out in Jizhou, then Fang Zichen will definitely be busy. Someone has to do these things! Brother Zhao didn't want to leave everything to Fang Zichen.

Moreover, the Qin family loves Guaizi so much that they will not let anything happen to him.

"That's okay!" Fang Zichen turned sideways and touched the face of the good boy: "This kid is my son! I can go to school and go home by myself at the age of seven, so my son is definitely not bad at it. "

Brother Zhao:"..."Are you sure?" How could he remember that he had clearly heard from his husband before that when he was a child, he would lie in bed so much that he couldn't wake up, and it was only his eldest and second brothers who carried him to the car, and then called him all the way, and the driver sent him to the school gate, and he finally woke up? ?

Why do you just say now that he went to school by himself at the age of seven?

Eighty percent of it is blowing again.

The next day before dawn, Brother Zhao got up and took a few stewards to unload the goods that were not sold out yesterday. Now there was only a little sweet potato starch and instant noodles left, not much, Brother Zhao I didn't sell it, thinking of leaving it to eat on the way, but now I packed it up and asked the good boy to take it over.

Fang Zichen called Zhang Quan and asked him to pick out eight imperial guards who could fight and escort them to the border. After thinking about it, he asked Uncle Tang to follow him. First, on the way Take care of the child, and secondly, Fang Zichen also wants him to go back and take a look.

Everything was arranged. The good boy was in tears before he got in the car. After kissing Brother Zhao and Fang Zichen, he said that he would miss them. After seeing Grandpa, he replied,

"Daddy." He sniffed and warned: "You don't want to You eat a lot of instant noodles secretly. If you want to eat secretly, wait until the good boy comes back. The best thing is when the good boy picks vegetables and gives instant noodles, and if the good boy doesn't show off, you will definitely be caught by your father again. "

Brother Zhao . : "..."

Guaizi's nose had already flowed out of the hole. Fang Zichen wanted to wipe it with a handkerchief, but Guaizi said again: "Father, Guaizi is very worried about you. Without Guaizi around to take care of you, you Be careful and don't make your father angry. Otherwise, if you don't have a good boy to help you saw the stick, you will be maimed. Don't secretly drink horse urine. Xiaobai knows how to kick people. Remember to go to the latrine..."

Fang Zichen A slap hit his mouth directly.

This damn kid.

Let's go quickly! Otherwise, if people see him, they will think that this is his father, and look at what he said. It will simply ruin his reputation.

Fang Zichen urged him: "Leave quickly!"

"Father, it's not good for you to be like this! When others see you, they will think you want your good boy to leave."

"I just want you to leave quickly."

"Father, you are like a stepfather! "

Fang Zichen: "..."

The good boy was carried into the car by Brother Zhao, and he lay on the car's floor with his feet propped up and called him.

"Good boy..."

"Liu Liu..."

"Good boy..."

"Liu Liu, you have to wait for your good boy to come back! Don't forget your good boy and don't have a new love. Forget about old love~"

Brother Zhao and Brother Zhou couldn't stop laughing.

Fang Zichen felt the veins on his forehead throbbing, and inexplicably felt like he was back in Xiaohe Village.

At that time, their family went to Yuanzhou, and Guaizai and Liuliu were also like this, talking nonsense, and it was like two desperate mandarin ducks who were forced to separate the two places.

A Guardsman drove the carriage in person, with Zhang Quan and several other Guardsmen guarding them on both sides. They were about to set off after watching the carriage go.

After staying at the inn for several days, Boss Qian was a little reluctant to let go. He was free and could chat with Wang Da and the others about Quzhou. He said that when he was poor in the past, he would go to the mountains to dig tree roots to eat. But the child couldn't eat it, couldn't digest it, and his belly was bloated. Too much tree roots were eaten and accumulated in it, and he couldn't eat anymore...

and he left.

Boss Qian had never worried about food and drink, so he felt a bit uncomfortable after hearing this.

After hearing a lot about the customs and customs of Quzhou, everyone was about to leave. Boss Qian felt inexplicably reluctant to leave. Brother Zhao gave him some instant noodles to thank him for his help during this time - pots and bowls in the inn. They had all the ladles and pans at their disposal. When he was too busy, Boss Qian asked the shop assistants to help him, which was kind of him.

Brother Zhao remembers it all!

Boss Qian said: "Next time you come, don't go to another inn, come here."

"Okay."

The carriage was loaded, and those who went to buy dry food and bedding also came back.

It was already mid-November and it was already cold. It would be impossible to sleep outdoors without a blanket at night.

After everything was packed up, Mrs. Yan came to see them off. After talking for a long time, she wanted to see the two children again. Brother Zhao called out but didn't hear the sound. He thought the two children hadn't woken up yet, but when they got upstairs, they opened the door. I was dumbfounded—Gungundan was gone.

Everyone searched the entire inn but couldn't find anyone. Brother Zhao was an experienced person, so he immediately called for people to chase the boy.

These two bastards must have sneaked into the carriage and followed his brother.

Fang Zichen took Liuliu to the bank to exchange the banknotes and came back. After hearing this, he went straight to the backyard to find two wooden sticks and guarded the door of the inn, thinking that when the children came back, he would deal with them severely. Dayton.

At this moment, the carriage has left Shangyang City.

Afraid of being watched on the road, the carriage that Brother Zhao arranged for Guaizi was small. It looked very simple from the outside and a little narrow inside, but it was enough for two people. There were two quilts in the innermost part of the carriage. There were two bags carrying clothes for Guaizi, and Guaizi was leaning on them to wipe his tears.

As soon as he set off, he missed his father. He missed him so much that he had to eat two steamed buns to comfort himself: "Grandpa Tang, my dear boy wants to eat steamed buns."

Uncle Tang looked at him and his eyes were as red as a little rabbit. , I wanted to laugh a little, so I took out two buns from the bag and handed them over. The good boy was eating deliciously, and there was a grunting sound, which was very sudden in the carriage. Uncle Tang looked at the good boy's belly, and the good boy's eyes widened. Eyes, he shook his head to indicate that it was not him, and then turned to look at the quilt behind him.

With a grunt, the voice sounded again.

It was determined that it came from the quilt behind him.

Before the good boy had time to get scared, he heard the sound of rolling balls.

"Dandan, please don't make any noise on your belly, otherwise Guo Guo and Grandpa Tang will find us."

Dandan whispered, "Dandan is making noise! ​​But your belly is not obedient!"

"Simo That's it! If you don't obey me, you can eat hot peppers next time."

"It's a three-pot meal. I don't want to eat hot peppers, but I'll be hungry if I want to eat them."

"You just have to bear with me. Stay away, let's go out again, and ask Guo Guo to buy you some Duo Duo Di buns. Guo Guo has a lot of money."

"Okay!"

Guaizi stuffed the buns into his mouth and put the two on top of the quilt. He took off the baggage, lifted up the top quilt, and laid down on the bottom layer of quilt like a hen laying eggs.

"Brother?"

"Guo Guo, how did you find us?" Gungun hurriedly said: "Cover it up quickly. When we are far away and father can't catch the bird, you can pretend to have discovered us again."

Uncle Tang: "· ·····"

Uncle Tang felt dizzy and immediately stopped the carriage, wanting to send Gungun Dandan back, but Gungun Dandan hugged the boy and howled desperately, saying he wanted Guo Guo and wanted to be with Guo Guo.

When I woke up in the morning, I heard that Guaizi was going to the border. Gungundan didn't understand. He just thought that Guaizi was going to play outside. But Dad and Dad didn't tell them, so they wouldn't be allowed to go.

But they wanted Guo Guo and wanted to play with Guo Guo. When Gungundan saw Brother Zhao carrying his baggage and going downstairs, the two little guys immediately got up. Together, they ran to the backyard avoiding people and saw Uncle Tang heading into the carriage. After tucking in the quilt, they knew which car they were going to sit in. When no one was paying attention, the two little guys climbed up and hid under the quilt. They were bored for more than an hour, and their stomachs were full of hunger.

Now he was holding Guaizi's legs, crying and begging, and Guaizi became soft-hearted.

If I go there, I won't be able to see my father and dad for at least two months. Now that I'm looking at them, the good boy doesn't want to let them go back. He has 'no' father and dad, and he can't lose his younger brother again. Now, the three of them begged Uncle Tang together.

"Grandpa Tang." The good boy stuffed most of the half-eaten buns into Dandan, and then hugged Uncle Tang's legs: "Grandpa Tang, please, don't separate us, please!"

"Please, Grandpa." Gungundandan also followed.

Uncle Tang was so frustrated that he had no choice but to ask a guard to go back and send a message. Otherwise, the master and the master would be extremely anxious if the two young masters ran out like this.

The imperial guards rode back again, and happened to meet the people sent by Brother Zhao on the way.

Brother Zhao waited for half an hour, and the imperial guards finally came back. They reported that the third young master and the fourth young master were indeed with the second young master, but the two young masters did not want to come back. Uncle Tang said that he would take good care of the children and let the master and the master rest assured.

I can do something about it now, and I'm afraid it will take a lot of time to catch up again.

With Uncle Tang here, there is no need to worry about food, clothing, housing, and transportation, but the two children have never been away from anyone, and Brother Zhao is afraid that they will come back halfway.

Fang Zichen didn't care: "The big boy is here! Don't worry."

Even if these two boys were really making trouble, they would probably forget about their father and father as soon as they coaxed them with the buns.

Moreover, Fang Zichen specifically told Zhang Quan to come back immediately and protect the three children if something went wrong.

So I'm not particularly worried.

Brother Zhao thought about it and immediately stopped worrying.

The team set off back.

One team goes south and one team goes north.

The author has something to say:

I said the day before yesterday that I would be able to see you today, but today I went to the hospital and waited for a long time before I came back, but I still couldn't get it. I thought it would be done by removing the plaster, but later the doctor said it was still possible. I have to go shoot a movie and I'm really sorry for waiting for so long. Now that the bone has not fully healed, I don't dare to use my hands. It is impossible to do more surgery at the moment. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. (=^▽^=)

Chapter 414

The Junzhou Caravan shipped goods to Shangyang and was selling like hot cakes. Everyone knew this. Fang Zichen had a huge sum of money and did not dare to let the imperial guards escort the good boy there, for fear that someone would come out to rob him.

If it was just him and Brother Zhao, it would be okay to say that he could still carry Brother Zhao and run away if he couldn't be beaten, but there were several women and husbands traveling with him, so he had to be cautious.

Officials all know who he is and dare not touch him, but ordinary people don't know.

Southern border.

In the main account, Mrs. Qin wiped her tears and waited for the doctor to change Old General Qin's medicine before she said, "Lao Jiang, are you, Brother Qin okay?"

Lao Jiang sighed: "Let's talk outside!"

"Okay."

After arriving outside the camp, Lao Jiang said: "Brother Qin was injured too badly this time. His shoulder blade was completely pierced, plus other injuries..."

"Will his life be in danger?" Qin asked the old lady.

"It's hard to say." Lao Jiang's voice sounded very deep: "Brother Qin has a high fever now, and there is some pus in his chest."

Before he could finish his words, Mrs. Qin heard it, and her face turned pale instantly.

There is ulceration in the wound. Although it has been removed, the person has developed a fever. If he can get over it, there is still a glimmer of hope. If he can't get over it...

Mrs. Qin doesn't dare to think about it anymore.

Lao Jiang said that it was a little late for General Qin to send him back. If he had come back sooner, it wouldn't be like this.

But there was no way. The Canyon Ridge was two days away from the border. After rescuing General Qin, Qin Hengyi gave him a simple bandage to stop the bleeding. Then he drove back as fast as possible without stopping, but in two days Overnight, the wound became infected.

General Qin had not woken up since he came back. In addition to his chest, there were more than a dozen wounds, large and small, in other places.

This is the most serious injury Old General Qin has ever suffered. He has not woken up since he came back. After hearing what Lao Jiang said, Old Mrs. Qin felt uneasy.

After Lao Jiang left, Mrs. Qin stood outside for a long time, motionless, like a sculpture, until the sky started to drizzle again.

Aunt Zhong brought the soup over and saw that she had not entered the tent. She was standing with her head lowered. She didn't know what she was thinking. The breath around her was very low. The ends of her hair were wet. Aunt Zhong had never seen her like this before. , couldn't help but come closer and persuade softly: "Old madam, go in!"

Old Madam Qin did not speak.

Aunt Zhong said: "I made some soup for you. You can drink some while it's hot!"

"You can send it to Brother Qing and the others! I can't drink it." Mrs. Qin said.

"Old madam, you haven't eaten today. Your body can't bear it. The old general still needs your care. I know you don't have much appetite, but at least you have a few sips. I've already brought them to the eldest young master and the master. ."

Qin Hengxuan and Meng Ruqing were busy arranging the wounded and cleaning up the Lu family. The army led by the Lu family also had to conduct strict investigations. They were busy at both ends and had no time to stay at the bedside.

Qin Hengyi has also led his troops to fight against the enemy.

The Great Chao Kingdom was in hot pursuit. It seemed that they felt that without General Qin, the Qin family soldiers had nothing to fear. They wanted to take advantage of General Qin's injury to kill them all. In just a few days, they launched seven attacks. attack.

The great dynasty pressed hard, leaving them no time to show their filial piety and grieve.

General Qin finally woke up the next day after Lao Jiang changed the medicine. In the early morning of that day, Mrs. Qin was cleaning his face. General Qin's eyelashes trembled a few times and he woke up. He turned around and saw Mrs. Qin's red and swollen eyes. , was silent for a while: "You...were you crying?"

"Master, you are finally awake." Mrs. Qin held his hand and found that his hand was extremely hot and his lips were a little sick. Pale, the excitement that just arose immediately dissipated.

"Stop crying." General Qin's voice was hoarse, as if he hadn't spoken for a long time: "It's not... the first time you were injured, aren't you used to it? What's wrong? Besides, I think I'm in good health. I'll be fine in a few days. Qin Qi is here... ?"

He spoke intermittently, breathing hard, as if he was tired. He could clearly feel that his wounds seemed to be bleeding with every word he uttered. Mrs. Qin He lowered his head and choked up: "No, I couldn't come back."

"...That's right!" This time, General Qin was silent for a long time before he said: "That child is... with me I have been waiting beside you for many years, and I am only twenty-seven. Now I can walk even faster than an old man like me."

"Master..."

"It's okay, I can see this. War is like this... no one knows if I'm going away or... whether I can come back. I'm used to it. I'm afraid you have to protect me... It's been several days!" General Qin said, "Go and rest for a while!"

He said he was strong and fine.

But Mrs. Qin didn't dare to go. She used to be tough, but now that she is in her fifties, she is no better than before.

Mrs. Qin didn't leave. Knowing that he was awake, Qin Hengxuan and Meng Ruqing came to visit.

After all, General Qin was weak, so the two of them did not dare to stay for a long time. They only talked briefly and asked General Qin to have a good rest, and then went out to work again.

After all, there is really a lot going on right now.

It rains a lot in the south, and it rains continuously most of the time. The sky is dark and gloomy. It has been raining for three full days.

Meng Ruqing was busy at the moment, picking up a pen to write some documents, when she suddenly heard a very familiar voice coming from outside.

"Beautiful uncle, handsome grandpa."

The voice was very small and weak, as if coming from a very far away place.

There are now only 90,000 garrison guards on the border. In the training area, the soldiers are lining up for drills and it is very noisy. But outside the main camp at the rear, it is very quiet. You can hear the drop of a needle. No one dares to be here. There is a lot of noise around here, especially these days.

The main tent seems to be isolated from the world, so quiet that no noise can be heard, so the sound is not loud, but it is clear to the ears.

Meng Ruqing paused, his whole back stiffened, and he shook his head. He felt that his mental state was not very good these days, and now he probably had hysteria again. He bit his lip to let the pain change. Returned to some sense.

The rice paper was smudged with ink and had to be rewritten.

Meng Ruqing had just changed the paper when she heard shouting from outside again.

"Beautiful uncle, handsome grandpa."

At this moment, the voice seemed to be coming from outside the camp.

Meng Ruqing's hands trembled uncontrollably, and her mind almost went blank: "Brother Xuan."

He turned around, only to see Qin Hengxuan had stood up, looking outside in disbelief.

It's not an auditory hallucination.

Meng Ruqing was stunned for a few seconds. When he came to his senses, he felt that the blood in his whole body seemed to be boiling and surging, and his heartbeat was so violent that it almost burst out of his chest. He stood up suddenly and ran out while his brain was briefly dizzy. The table They were all overturned, and all the folds on it were scattered on the ground, but Meng Ruqing didn't care at all. Qin Hengxuan threw away his pen and followed closely. Seeing that Meng Ruqing was too excited and was about to fall after running for two steps, Qin Hengxuan hurriedly supported him. Meng Ruqing He stood firm and continued to rush outside. He ran out with an almost panicked look on his face.

"Ah! Beautiful uncle."

Something seemed to hit her ear, and Meng Ruqing looked for the sound.

The boy ran towards me, very fast, like a small firecracker.

His face was flushed, he was still the size of a bun, his size hadn't changed much, and his appearance was the same as four years ago.

Meng Ruqing couldn't believe it and froze on the spot.

"Good boy?

" "Uncle Beauty." "The good boy was so happy that he jumped excitedly like an ant on a hot pot. Then he rushed towards Meng Ruqing, hugged his calf, raised his head and called him loudly.

"Uncle Beauty. "

The voice was sweet, and the touch on his legs was real. It was not a dream. Meng Ruqing's vision became blurry, and his eyes became wet almost instantly.

Tears fell instantly, and he picked up the good boy.

He could hold him It was so tight that it almost hurt the boy. He didn't say anything, but raised his hand to wipe his tears, and his palms instantly became wet: "Uncle Beauty, why are you crying?"

Meng Ruqing looked at him with a keen eye, not daring to blink, and replied in a trembling voice: "Because uncle is happy. " "

The good boy laughed brightly: "The good boy is happy too. Uncle Beauty, do you miss the good boy?

Meng Ruqing's voice trembled and she said, "I want to. " "I think about it so much that I think about it almost every day, and my heart and lungs feel like they are about to explode.

Qin Hengxuan touched Guaizi's head, and Guaizi reached out to him. When Qin Hengxuan came closer, he hugged his neck: "Handsome Grandpa . "

Qin Hengxuan squeezed his soft face with one hand, and held the good boy's little hand tightly with the other. He wanted to hug him, but he also knew that he couldn't hug him at this point: "You little guy, why are you here?

"Grandpa is injured. " The boy said, "I'm coming to see him." "

Qin Hengxuan was full of surprise and looked at him deeply: "Your Grandpa Qin must be very happy to know that you are coming. "

Zhang Quan just panted and chased after him. His young master ran too fast and disappeared in a flash.

He was the first sword-carrying guard in front of Xia Jinghong, so Qin Hengxuan knew him.

But listen It was said that this person was sent to Ganzhou to protect Fang Zichen. When he saw him, Qin Hengxuan immediately guessed why he was here.

Meng Ruqing put one hand around the good boy's legs and the other around his small body, Zhang Quan. When he realized that the other party saw him, he took two steps back and hugged his young master tightly, carrying him into his arms with a guarded attitude, as if he was afraid that he would snatch the child away from him

. Things, Zhang Quan has always known that the Qin family likes their young master, but now it turns out that it is more than just liking him. Looking at Lord Qin like this, if the Qin family were bandits, Mr. Qin Hengxuan

would have been buried long ago.

He spoke first: "Are you Guard Zhang? "

"yes. Zhang Quan came to his senses, bowed and clasped his fists: "I have met Mr. Qin, Lord Qin."

"No gift. " " Qin Hengxuan saw Meng Ruqing hugging the boy and not letting go, and said directly: "Where are we going, dad? "

"Um! "

Old General Qin's camp is at the back. Not long after he passed there, there were soldiers of the Qin family guarding the outside. At this time, Old General Qin was drinking medicine. His high fever has not subsided. If he were an ordinary person, he should be completely unconscious at this moment, but General Qin had been fainted for several days, and he was probably tired now.

After taking the medicine, Mrs. Qin was about to bring him water to rinse his mouth, when Qin Hengxuan opened the curtain and burst in excitedly.

, look who is coming. "

He was very excited as he spoke. Just as Mrs. Qin was about to say who, Meng Ruqing also came in with Guaizi in her arms.

"Grandma, it's Guaizi. Mrs. Qin's hand shook, and

the tea cup fell to the ground with a clang.

General Qin's eyes widened. He raised his right hand and rubbed his eyes, and then his tongue felt like it was knotted, and said: "Good boy?" ? "

"grandfather. "

Old General Qin was simply surprised and surprised. He forced himself to sit up, coughed violently and stretched out his hand towards him: "Good boy, come here, come here... let grandpa see you.

The good boy got down from Meng Ruqing's arms and ran over: "Grandpa, lie down quickly. "

General Qin grabbed him and rubbed him: "Oh, you are such a good boy, grandpa didn't dream. " "

The good boy helped him lie down, and when he saw the bandages on his body, his face was gloomy: "Grandpa, how is your health? Are you still in pain?

"It doesn't hurt. It won't hurt after seeing your grandpa. " "Old General Qin kept laughing. He felt very weak just now, but now he seems to have taken the magic elixir, as if he has endless strength and can fight for another 300 rounds. He I wanted to hug my dear boy, but I was inconvenient, so I had to pat the bed and say: "Come, sit next to grandpa, grandpa can take a good look at you. "

The good boy climbed onto the bed and sat down next to Old General Qin. He very thoughtfully pulled the quilt and covered him: "Grandpa, your hands are hot. As expected, my father is right. Grandpa, you will definitely not be cold." "

The whole room was full of people: "..."

General Qin was startled for a moment, and then he laughed loudly, and his voice sounded full of energy. Mrs. Qin was afraid that he would open the wound, but she was really happy to see him. He didn't say much.

He said again: "My father knows everything well. He is finally relieved to see that grandpa is fine."

General Qin pinched his little nose and said, "Grandpa is useless and makes our little boy worried. "

"No, someone attacked grandpa secretly. All the good boys know it. " Guaizi raised his fist: "Grandpa, tell Guaizi, who hit you?"

"What do you want? " Qin Hengxuan asked with a smile.

"Beat him to death." The good guy said, "The bad guys will be beaten." "

Qin Hengxuan teased him: "They are very powerful, I'm afraid you can't beat him if you are so small! If someone comes over, you may disappear. "

Guaizi was not happy after hearing this: "If you are ambitious, you are not tall. Guaizi will be a man who will defeat the world in the future. He is also a handsome grandpa. You may not know it. In fact, Guaizi is very powerful. My father He took me to suppress the bandits, and the good boy beat them with sticks, one by one, and they screamed and screamed. My father said that the good boy was very brave and rewarded the good boy with a hundred taels. At this point, his chest puffed up: "

Guaizi has a huge sum of money at such a young age, which is awesome, but the money has been used up by Guaizi, otherwise Guaizi would have been able to marry more than a dozen wives." , and my father also taught Guaizi how to practice guns!

"Yes. " General Qin was very pleased: "Then our little boy must be even more powerful." "

"My father said the same thing. Guaizi shook his feet and said happily: "My father said that if I were put on the mountain, with Guaizi's ability, I could already command a group of monkeys. Ordinary people don't have this ability, only Guaizi has it." "

The people in the room burst out laughing. It turned out that General Qin was seriously injured. Although he woke up, his fever persisted. No one dared to take it lightly. Everyone was worried about it. The whole camp seemed lifeless and the atmosphere was a bit heavy. But now Old General Qin seemed to come back to life all of a sudden,

and he thought he came from Chuzhou, but when he thought about it, it was not ten days since he was seriously injured. When he asked, Guaizi said that he had come from there. Come from Shangyang

!

"Our dear boy is interested. General Qin touched him and said, "When grandpa recovers from his injury, I will play with you." "

Zhang Quan was waiting aside, seeing that it was getting late. Although he didn't want to break the happy atmosphere with words, he said: "Young Master. "

"Huh?"

"We should go back..." Zhang Quan didn't even finish speaking. Meng Ruqing rushed to the bed and hugged the good boy.

Qin Hengxuan didn't say anything, but Meng Ruqing's actions made his heart feel like a knife, and it hurt like being stabbed.

Meng Ruqing has been under a lot of pressure recently, and is worried about the health of Old General Qin. Moreover, there are so many casualties this time. People are carried out from the wounded barracks almost every day. Their deaths are extremely tragic, with their whole bodies wrapped in gauze and pus seeping through them. When we came out, it was so cold in winter, but people still stank. Originally, more than a dozen camps were filled with wounded people, but now...most of them were empty.

Doctor Jiang and his three disciples were the only ones here, and they couldn't even save him.

So we could only save those who were slightly injured first, and those who were too seriously injured. After lying in the tent for a few days, they all left one after another.

The corpses were carried out one by one. Meng Ruqing saw it once and felt a little more uncomfortable. He knew that wars had been like this since ancient times. Casualties were inevitable. Those who survived had to be open-minded. Reason, as long as the heart is not iron-clad, no one can remain indifferent when faced with this kind of thing. Qin Hengxuan saw that Meng Ruqing was not in good condition and advised him to go back and rest for a few days, but Meng Ruqing did not leave. Now that he is busy, he is gone. Qin Hengxuan is probably busy alone. He couldn't come, so he endured it for a few days, and his spirit was already a little unstable, otherwise he would not be like this.

"Going back so soon? Didn't you just come here?" Mrs. Qin glanced at Meng Ruqing and said to Zhang Quan, "Can't you stay a few more days?"

"No!" said the good boy, "He went to pick up my brother. I'll My brother is here too, my beautiful uncle, my handsome grandpa, and my grandma. Do you want to go with me to pick up my brother? My brother is so cute! "

I haven't gotten up yet this morning, my dear. " Thinking of Meng Ruqing, he followed Zhang Quan on horseback first. However, ordinary people were not allowed to enter the border area without permission. Fang Zichen had already taken away his token. When the boy was about to enter the camp, he was stopped. The soldier They didn't recognize the Ultraman Token, which made Guaizi very depressed. He felt that these uncles were really short-sighted.

Zhang Quan showed his token and was answering the soldiers' questions when the obedient boy dismounted and ran in. How could he be allowed to enter this important military area? Several soldiers chased him. When Qin heard the noise and came over, he recognized him at first glance. Only then was Zai able to run around in the military camp.

Qin Yi originally wanted someone to take him there, but the good boy said no, he could find it. Following Fang Zichen, he had experience in suppressing bandits. The bandit leader lived in the biggest house, and the beautiful uncle must also live in the biggest tent.

He didn't let anyone inform him, saying that he wanted to surprise his beautiful uncle and handsome grandpa.

It's already noon now, and my brother must be awake.

Gungundandan has been particularly clingy to him since he hasn't seen Brother Zhao and Fang Zichen in the past few days. Sometimes he even wants to go back and look for his father. I'm afraid he will cry when he wakes up and hasn't seen him.

The good boy was anxious, and Meng Ruqing said to go with him. Mrs. Qin smiled: "Your brother is very cute! Then grandma must go and see it."

"Okay!" The good boy pulled Meng Ruqing and Qin at the same time. The old lady said: "The good boy brought you a gift."

Mrs. Qin cooperated with him, pretending to be curious and asked: "What is it?"

"I can't say it now, because there will be no surprise." The good boy turned around and was about to call. Qin Hengxuan helped him go with Old General Qin: "Grandpa, don't move, be a good boy, wait until the good boy comes back to cook noodles for you."

Old General Qin: "..."

The four of them went outside, and it happened that A small soldier came over and said that two carriages were coming outside, with guards...

"It's my brother who's here, so fast." The good boy shouted anxiously, a little sad and a little arrogant: "It must be I want to be a good boy so much, my brother is so clingy, my beautiful uncle and handsome grandpa, let's go quickly."

At this moment, Gungundan was sitting in the carriage, sniffing and gnawing on the buns.

"Grandpa Tang, are the pots dripping inside?" Gungun squeaked and took a bite of the buns. Hearing Uncle Tang say yes, he said, "Then why don't the pots come out? Gungun doesn't even have the appetite to think about the pots."

Uncle Tang : "..."

Third Young Master, you have already fucked two buns, and you have eaten most of the third bun in your mouth. Isn't it a little late to say this now?

Dandan also nodded: "Eggy has no appetite either, Grandpa Tang, give Dandan another one."

Uncle Tang: "..."

Uncle Tang sighed sadly and handed over the last bun.

He knew that the two children were going to make a fuss when they couldn't see the young master, and a bag of steamed buns wouldn't last long. He hurriedly hurriedly arrived before the steamed buns were finished, but he couldn't get in.

The buns have been made, and Uncle Tang is a little worried. If the good boy doesn't come out, he will probably lose his golden beans again after finishing the buns.

When the good boy came out and saw the carriage, he immediately let go of Meng Ruqing's hand and shouted towards the carriage: "Get out of here!"

Gungun was shocked: "It's Guo Guo." It was cold outside, so he just lifted the car curtain and stuck out his head. Then his eyes lit up: "Guo Guo."

The boy rushed towards the carriage, while Qin Hengxuan and others were a few steps behind.

Mrs. Qin smiled: "Oh, this kid's little face is really round! He looks like Brother Zhao."

"It does look like Brother Zhao." Aunt Zhong agreed, and Mrs. Qin said: "Look. It's really lovely..." Before she could finish her words, her pupils suddenly tightened, and then her whole body froze.

Chapter 415

Aunt Zhong: "Old madam, what's wrong with you? Ah!!! This... This..."

Meng Ruqing and Qin Hengxuan heard Aunt Zhong's exclamation, and looked away. Mrs. Qin didn't feel right, so she hurriedly gathered around.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Qin Hengxuan was extremely worried and hurriedly called the soldiers on the side to call Lao Jiang.

Mrs. Qin covered her chest with one hand, as if she had seen a ghost, her whole body was shaking, her face was full of astonishment, shock, and disbelief. She pointed at the carriage with a trembling hand: "He...he... "..."

At some point, Dandan also stuck his head out, with a plump face, as if there were two buns stuck on it: "Guoguo."

The two little guys immediately got out of the carriage when they saw the good boy. After a while, Uncle Tang tried to hold the two little guys but refused.

As soon as Dandan got out of the carriage, he held his buttocks and said that he had an urgent need to urinate. He wanted to let Xiaoniao come out to see the world. The good boy took him to pee. The Fang family has been known to be bold. Gungun ran to Meng Ruqing and looked up at him. Then he kept exclaiming: "Wow, wow, wow."

Meng Ruqing: "..."

Meng Ruqing was stunned by his wow.

Gungun said: "You are Uncle Meiren, right? Your elder brother and Gungundi's father are so similar!"

Meng Ruqing was cautious, originally wanting to touch his head, but Gungun's head was full of little pimples, so Uncle Tang gave him a hand on the road. It was like a hedgehog. Meng Ruqing had no idea what to do. In the end, she had to touch his face gently and asked him in an unnatural and soft voice: "You are Gun Gun!" "

Ah! How do you know Gun Gun? Oh, this guy Grandma Ximoniao? Why are you shaking all the time? Is it because of the cold?"

Mrs. Qin's mouth was trembling and she could not speak.

Aunt Zhong also looked frightened.

Dandan peed and shook his cock: "It's time to let the air out, and the pot is wide enough to help Dandan put on pants."

Brother Zhao was always afraid of his children being cold, so he kept wearing two pieces of clothing for them after winter. Pants, every time after urinating his balls, he pulls them up completely. Last time, he put on his pants after umming. He walked awkwardly, as if his balls hurt. When the good boy took off his pants, he saw that the little pants inside were gone at all. When he pulls it up, the pants are stuck at his knees. When he pees later, the boy will take the initiative to help him pull up his pants.

Uncle Tang was very happy to see Meng Ruqing, but seeing that something was wrong with Mrs. Qin, he wanted to help her back with Aunt Zhong, but Aunt Zhong said, "Brother Tang, who is that?"

She pointed at her balls, Uncle Tang Said: "That's my fourth young master, what's wrong?"

"Your fourth young master?" Aunt Zhong looked at Guaizi again, and suddenly covered her mouth as she thought of something.

Meng Ruqing and Qin Hengxuan had no idea what happened.

When he first met Guaizi, the reason why Qin Hengxuan felt that he looked similar to Meng Ruqing was because he had seen a portrait of Meng Ruqing when he was a child, but Qin Hengxuan was born outside the Great Wall. At that time, Grandma Feng had just gotten married, and General Qin was going to go on an expedition with his father. Mrs. Qin also had good martial arts skills when she was young, and was not afraid of the battlefield, so she also went with her, taking Grandma Zhong with her.

The war outside was hard and the conditions were harsh, so there were no painters. It was not until Qin Hengxuan was four years old and the Qin family put down the foreign strife that the family came back from outside the Great Wall. Not long after, Grandma Feng became a widow. When Mrs. Qin found out, she took the initiative to take her home. Come back.

There doesn't seem to be much difference between two years old and four years old, but when children are young, they are almost the same from day to day. Nowadays it is even more different.

Qin Hengxuan only felt that their reaction was so great, as if they had not seen children for eight hundred years.

Mrs. Qin got a force from nowhere, and without Qin Hengxuan's support, she rushed to Eggy, knelt on the ground with one knee, grabbed Eggy's shoulder, and looked at him carefully.

Dandan was very courageous and was not afraid at all: "Grandma, what are you doing to Simo?"

Mrs. Qin's eyes were full of unspeakable emotions, and she choked with sobs: "It looks like, it really does look like."

Qin Hengxuan approached: "Mom, what does it look like?"

"Like you." Mrs. Qin said.

Qin Hengxuan: "..."

Qin Hengxuan looked towards Dandan, and Dandan also looked up at him, his dark eyes exuding a stupid light.

Qin Hengxuan was a little choked.

I have to say that this child looks very cute, but he is short and has a big lump. I don't know if it is because the clothes are too thick. He is as round as a ball, but looking at his face, he should be fat. Yes, he is so fat. How does he look like him?

He doesn't have so much flesh on his face and body. If he looked like this, he would have knocked down the wall of Zuo Xiang's house and torn it apart, and he would have been blinded by his eyebrows. I'm afraid Brother Qing wouldn't have even seen him. I will be in love with you, and secretly promise him my love.

The good boy listened for a long time and stared at Qin Hengxuan for a long time. Then he looked at Dandan again, his eyes flickering between the two of them: "Grandma, it doesn't look like that."

Mrs. Qin said, "Your handsome grandpa. He was like this when he was a child, exactly the same."

Qin Hengxuan frowned: "Mom, you can't..."

"Impossible." Mrs. Qin seemed to know what he wanted to say and became excited: "I'm not confused. I'm not crazy about my grandson."

"Young master, it's true," said Grandma Zhong.

"Ah!" Guaizi scratched his head, confused: "Mama Feng also said they looked alike before, so why do the two grandmas also say they look alike now? My father said the balls look like piglets, and the handsome grandpa should look like a human being. A pig looks like a human, how can it be the same?"

Qin Hengxuan lost his balance and staggered two steps.

His mother said it looked like.

His nanny also said it looked like it.

Even Aunt Feng said it looked like it.

One person can be said to be dazzled, but three people are not all dazzled!

But how could it be...

Qin Hengxuan's mind went blank and his ears were buzzing. He looked at Guaizi, then at Dandan, and finally looked back at Meng Ruqing. The phrase 'exactly the same' kept repeating in his mind. The echoes grew louder and louder, until finally they sounded like thunder.

Will there be such coincidences over and over again in the world?

Good boy, Dandan, Fang Zichen...

His mind was in chaos, but his thoughts seemed to be strung together in an orderly manner.

He seemed to have thought of something, and squatted down in front of Good Boy. This thought made him so excited that his brain could not think properly, and he could not utter a single word: "Good Boy."

His eyes were blood red, and his expression was wrong. He seemed to be Trying his best to restrain himself, Meng Ruqing also stumbled over.

The good boy was confused: "Handsome grandpa, what's wrong with you guys?"

"Good boy," Qin Hengxuan exhaled forcefully, asking for confirmation: "Tell grandpa, are Fang Zichen really your father?"

The good boy nodded. : "Yes!"

"But didn't he come from overseas?" This was the point that Qin Hengxuan couldn't figure out the most: "Weren't you already three years old when he came? You and your father had been living in Xiaohe Village before. He, isn't he your stepfather?"

It was because of this and the age discrepancy that the Qin family stopped investigating Fang Zichen and turned their attention elsewhere - Guaizi's biological father.

But no matter how they checked, they found nothing.

Brother Zhao seemed to be pregnant out of thin air.

The secret guard of the Qin family came back and said that Brother Zhao was born prematurely. They secretly investigated several families who were close to Brother Zhao at the beginning and found out from Uncle Liu that Brother Zhao should have been pregnant in six months. Around March, but Ma Wen was out on business at that time, so the child in Brother Zhao's belly was definitely not from the Ma family.

Whose is that?

Guaizi looks so much like Meng Ruqing, but whether his biological father is...

can't be found out, there is no clue at all.

At that time, Qin Hengxuan only thought that Fang Zichen and Guaizai were stepfather and son who had no blood relationship. They both looked like Brother Qing, so he didn't think much about it and just regarded it as a coincidence.

But what if the two are biological father and son?

Fang Zichen looks like Brother Qing, and the son he gave birth to also looks like him. The son resembles his father. That's not surprising. But now, it's strange when a son looks like him.

He and Brother Zhao are innocent.

Guaizai shook his head: "No, no, he is Guaizai's biological father, not his stepfather. Handsome grandpa, don't talk nonsense, otherwise Guaizai will ignore you."

Qin Hengxuan added: "But he is from overseas."

"From overseas . He is also a good boy's father!" The good boy said, "He came and then went back."

"He came and went back again,"

Qin Hengxuan murmured again, and suddenly after a while. He covered his face and laughed, almost uncontrollably.

Guaizai and Dandan were shocked when they saw him crying and laughing. Dandan was so afraid that she squeezed into Guaizai's arms and clutched his clothes tightly:

"Guo Guo, this grandpa is crazy, he's too scary."

" My brother is here and will protect you, don't be afraid."

Mrs. Qin heard this and punched Qin Hengxuan: "Stop laughing, you're scaring my grandson."

Qin Hengxuan glanced at Dandan and wiped his face quickly. Silenced.

Mrs. Qin doesn't think there is such a coincidence in the world. Even if they really think too much, she still has to recognize this grandson.

At this moment, she waved to Dandan, full of kindness, as if she was afraid that if her voice was louder, her grandson would be frightened: "Good grandson, come here, don't be afraid, grandma will hug you."

Dandan walked towards him, and she felt heavy in her arms . , Mrs. Qin said with a smile: "This baby is strong and rolling, come here, grandma will hug you too."

Mrs. Qin took one on each side, kissed the balls, and kissed Gungun again. The two children had a lot of fat on their faces and were soft. Wow, Mrs. Qin loved her so much that she coaxed the two children to call her grandma, and after calling her "go fuck me", Mrs. Qin's eyes became sore, and then her tears fell, and she started to be furious again: "This is me. "My grandson, that's right, Fang Zichen... has he returned to Ganzhou? Come, prepare your horses and carry them on your back."

"Mother..." Qin Hengxuan saw that Aunt Zhong really wanted to call for help. Go prepare the horses and persuade the people to come down quickly.

"Mom, don't worry, let's go see dad first!"

Now it's just a guess. If it's true, we have to send someone to check.

If Fang Zichen and Guaizai were really biological father and son, then everything would be as he thought. Only then would it make sense for Dandan to look like him.

But Fang Zichen is not the right age.

Mrs. Qin obviously thought about it and calmed down: "Yes, let's go see your dad first. Your dad will be happy if he sees the rolling balls."

Meng Ruqing stood like a sculpture, the stimulation was so great that his whole body All in a wonton state.

"Brother Xuan."

His hands were shaking even more violently, and he eagerly grabbed Qin Hengxuan's wrist. The violent heartbeat kept blasting in his ears, making him feel unreal. His throat was blocked, and his chest was sore and swollen. At this moment, he had many things to ask. His lips moved but he couldn't utter a single word. After a while, he looked at Qin Hengxuan's sharp and red eyes and asked: "Brother Xuan, is that right?" Really? Mom is not wrong, right?"

Qin Hengxuan reached out and patted his back gently, comforting him in a low voice: "Well! We have to go back and investigate this matter again, you will scare the child.

" I looked at Guaizi and saw that he was looking at me worriedly, so I immediately calmed down.

Zhang Quan followed behind, he was frightened and felt that the scene just now was like a drama.

But he just said it! If there was no connection at all, it would be a bit scary for the adults of his family to still look like the leader of the Qin family.

...

General Qin Baba looked outside the camp. After waiting for a long time, he felt that the days were like years. He was about to sit still when there was a sudden noise outside.

"Wow, this tent is big. My father said the tent is made of cowhide and sheepskin. It's very valuable. There are so many here. Grandma, don't you come from a rich family?"

"Yes, do you want it? Grandma will give it to you later. One box, okay?"

"Ah! How embarrassing!"

"Guo Guo, Dan Dan wants some Western food."

"Grandpa Tang said you were hungry again,"

he said. : "That's a small sweet before meals. You can put it between your teeth."

Qin Hengxuan stumbled and almost fell to the ground. Three buns were put between his teeth! ! !

This kid is more ruthless than a good boy.

Mrs. Qin and Aunt Zhong laughed and said that the child's appetite really followed the second child's, how good it was! Being able to eat is a blessing. Being able to eat is a blessing.

I miss Zhao Geer and Fang Zichen. They wandered around the village a lot and met a lot of people. They were not afraid of meeting Qin Hengxuan and his group, but they were more clingy to Meng Ruqing. Now they were holding his hand and jumping around. Jump and walk.

Meng Ruqing asked him softly what he wanted to eat, and Dandan said: "Whatever is available, Dandan won't be picky! It's not good to be picky about food. Father said that picky eaters don't have the tonnage, so they won't be a heavyweight. Beautiful uncle, you What is Xi Dao a heavyweight? He's just awesome, so Dandan isn't picky about food, but Dandan likes Dad Xi's braised pork ribs the most. That one is so good. Uncle Beauty, you can go to Dandan next time. Come on, Dandan asked daddy to make something for you."

The child was enthusiastic, and Meng Ruqing smiled: "Okay."

It was already lively with just one good boy, but now there are two more, and they are chattering all the way. Everything that Gungundandan sees is novel, his little mouth is crackling, and he is not idle for a moment.

General Qin heard it from afar.

Qin Yi raised the tent and turned around and said: "General, it's the old lady and the others who are back."

"I understand." Old General Qin smiled: "The two boys must have received them and heard their voices. I guess they are following me." He is as lively as a kid."

Qin Yi saw Lord Qin holding two fat children. The two children were walking like rabbits, but they couldn't be more lively.

Listening to the footsteps, the group arrived outside the camp, and General Qin laughed: "Have you brought the child back..."?

At the same time, Meng Ruqing came in with her two children.

General Qin subconsciously glanced at Gungun Dandan while he was talking. The moment his eyes touched Dandan's face, he stopped talking.

Mrs. Qin was also shocked when she saw him, and said with a smile: "Master, do you also think that this child is similar to Xuan'er?"

"Yes." General Qin was slightly dazed, his heart seemed to have stopped, and he sat down They couldn't sit still and swallowed before they managed to speak: "They are exactly the same."

Although he is a military general, he is brave and good at fighting, and has excellent strategies. He is not a reckless man with well-developed limbs and a simple mind. He is not confused. On the contrary, he reacts very quickly. The joy on Mrs. Qin's face and Meng Ruqing's expression cannot be concealed. , even more confirmed this.

Gungundandan was brought to the bedside by Meng Ruqing: "This is grandpa."

Gungundandan called out loudly.

General Qin was breathing rapidly and couldn't help being happy. He couldn't say anything for a long time: "Hey, hey, hey, good boy, really good boy. Xuan'er, go call Lao Jiang and ask him to come over."

Qin Hengxuan was worried . "Dad, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

"No, dad is very comfortable now."

Lao Jiang was quickly called. General Qin said that his heart was beating very fast, and he wanted to see him quickly. He was now I don't want to die at all, please save him.

Lao Jiang felt his pulse and said he was fine. He also saw that the high fever that had persisted for two nights seemed to be slowly fading away and was no longer as hot as before, and he couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

Although he didn't understand what happened, the fever had gone down and he seemed to be in good spirits, which was a great blessing.

General Qin asked the three children to stand in a row beside the bed, then looked at this and that, and touched the children's heads next to each other. They were so beautiful. They felt so beautiful.

You can just let him die now!

Mrs. Qin also sat next to her and watched. The three children were so cute and beautiful that she couldn't get enough of them.

Aunt Zhong came in with food. Guaizi hadn't eaten anything since morning, so he was hungry now.

Meng Ruqing still wanted to lift Ge Ge onto the stool, but Ge Ge was useless. The two children were the most active in eating, and they had already climbed up and sat down on their own.

Time was tight, so Aunt Zhong asked the back to prepare three dishes first. Uncle Tang said: "Let the kitchen cook some more! Otherwise there won't be enough food."

The Qin family are all big eaters, and Aunt Zhong doesn't dare to kidnap these children. She looked at it, and she had experience: "It's fried. I asked them to fry ten of them and steam two pots of rice, which is enough."

The Qin family brought their own cook and did not eat with the soldiers.

The cooks in the Qin family are very knowledgeable and quick with their hands and feet. Aunt Zhong also said that the young master was hungry and asked them to hurry up. The cooks started cooking on four stoves, and Gegudandan didn't even finish half a bowl of rice. , all ten dishes were served.

The three brothers paused while holding the bowls.

Meng Ruqing sat next to the good boy, knowing that he liked chicken, so she gave him a chicken leg: "What's wrong? Isn't it delicious?"

"No, there are too many dishes." The good boy said, "Uncle beauty, what's the matter? There are so many fried vegetables!"

Meng Ruqing asked, "Can't you finish it? It doesn't matter if you can't finish it."

Gungun's little spoon stirred up the rice and said, "How can Ximo finish it when Gungun is here?" "

Yes! It's not that I can't finish it, it's just that there are a lot of dishes, some of which I have never seen before. Uncle Beauty, what is this?" asked the good boy.

Meng Ruqing looked at Uncle Tang. Uncle Tang said that they only had three or four dishes for each meal. They only had cabbage, radishes, beans, and cucumbers. Anyway, they ate whatever was grown in the ground. There were not so many tricks. of.

Aunt Zhong said that the young master was here and asked them to prepare some dishes quickly. The cooks knew immediately that he was a good boy. How could they dare to be vague? The dishes they usually cooked were not to their liking. The masters could not say anything at all. They just ate less, but a few years ago the good young master lived in the house. They didn't know that the children didn't like celery very much, so they fried a plate. As a result, Qin Hengxuan came directly to them and told them that the young master would be here in the future. Don't fry celery, it won't have any flavor.

Maybe my mother didn't remember that she used to manage the entire kitchen, and the few masters didn't come over very often. In addition, Mrs. Qin brought her here from the capital, and she had a certain status in the kitchen. She didn't usually do it herself, but later I saw The good girl was favored by several of her masters, and she wanted to please her, so she cooked the food herself. People onlookers saw her chopping celery, as if she wanted to stir-fry it with the beef. A few people kindly reminded Xu's mother that she didn't listen. This dish is her best specialty. Yes, all the masters in the family love to eat it, and they even praised her! Celery is delicious too! The child didn't like it. It must have been because these people did not treat her well last time, but the next day we didn't see her again.

I heard that the dish was not even served on the table, but the eldest young master only saw it halfway...

it was obvious that he valued it.

Except for the master, they have never seen the young master care so much about anyone.

Time is tight right now, but with a few people and experience, they can come up with ten dishes no matter how tight the time is.

All of them are different, it's because they use their special skills.

The Qin family is a well-established family, and those who chop vegetables in the kitchen are not ordinary people.

When I went to Yan's Mansion for a banquet, there were not so many dishes on the table. Some of them were well placed in pots, red and green, and they were delicious at first sight. How had I never seen so many dishes before! It made my eyes go straight, and I swallowed tons of saliva.

As if she had never seen the world, Mrs. Qin shed tears again. What kind of life did the child live before? I've never even seen braised lion's head.

The three children ate it loudly, as if a tornado was passing through. The lion's head was as big as a fist, and the balls squealed in one mouthful, and they drank most of it, almost two mouthfuls each.

Qin Hengxuan and Qin Hengyi also ate a lot when they were young, but now they see Guaizi and Gungundandan finishing ten dishes in one go. At this moment, let alone Qin Hengxuan and Meng Ruqing, they are the experienced Mrs. Qin and Aunt Zhong. , General Qin were all dumbfounded, and it was extremely difficult to swallow their saliva.

My dear, fortunately his Qin family has a big business, otherwise it might not be enough for three children.

Qin Hengxuan thought of Fang Zichen and Brother Zhao at this moment, and felt extremely sad. No wonder Brother Zhao opened a shop in the past. Logically speaking, there should be no shortage of food and drink, but he still had to pick up vegetable leaves. Now he understands that this is not the case. How can we save money? It was really hard for the two children, who were under so much pressure.

There are ten dishes, but the portions are actually small.

Uncle Tang gave the three children more food.

The good boy poured all the soup into a plate, and then distributed it to his brothers. When there was a little left over, he poured it into his own bowl. Seeing that it was still not clean, he scraped it with a spoon a few more times, and then he was satisfied and put it away. plate.

"Thank you Guo Guo."

"Yeah! Brother, eat quickly. Only when you are full can you grow taller."

The three children stirred with spoons and ate deliciously again. A few grains of rice fell out, and the balls were picked up and stuffed into their mouths.

Meng Ruqing and Mrs. Qin's eyes were sore again.

Qin Hengxuan and General Qin felt bad after seeing it. The child had suffered before! Suffered.

"Are you full?" Meng Ruqing asked, "Can I ask the kitchen to cook some more food for you?"

"No need." Guaizi said, "I brought some noodles, and Guaizi will cook them for you later."

Meng Ruqing: "..."

Meng Ruqing thought of the bowl of porridge that year, and now she was still frightened, but she couldn't say no.

General Qin really didn't want to die at this moment, so he lay down immediately and said that he wanted to rest.

Seeing Qin Hengxuan leading several children out, General Qin was full of reluctance. He had not seen enough, but he had better avoid danger first! He still wants to watch his children grow up, but he can't give up!

The good boy is not good at making noodles, but he can still make noodles. Now he is making noodles for Qin Hengxuan and others, and the taste can make them want to stop.

The Qin family has a great cause, but Qin Hengxuan and his family have never eaten anything that flies in the sky, runs on the ground, and swims in the water? Even if the imperial chef made it, I still ate it a lot, but now I still feel that this instant noodles is incredible, it is really delicious.

Qin Hengxuan ate three whole packets before stopping, and Meng Ruqing also ate a full bowl for the first time.

"Beautiful uncle, handsome grandpa and grandma, do you think the dripping noodles are delicious?" Guaizi asked lying on the side.

Meng Ruqing touched his head: "It's delicious, thank you, dear boy."

"You're welcome!"

Mrs. Qin smiled and took the three children back to General Qin. Before coming out, General Qin looked at her with a look of reluctance. I saw it.

The children talk a lot and are not afraid when they arrive in a strange place. They chase and fight each other. The camp is lively and noisy, but no one finds it too noisy.

Lao Jiang came over, and as soon as he arrived outside the camp, he heard the hearty laughter of General Qin. As soon as he entered, he saw the Qin family sitting around, clapping their hands, and the two children performing somersaults on the mat, rolling around like balls, having fun. Especially Lord Qin, Lao Jiang felt a little dazed for a moment, thinking that he was in the wrong place - Lord Qin was actually smiling? ? ?

At night, Gungundandan coyly pulled Meng Ruqing and said she wanted to sleep with him.

Meng Ruqing couldn't wait to do it!

I rested at the inn yesterday and had already taken a shower. It was cold now. Meng Ruqing personally washed the feet of the three children in the evening. Uncle Tang asked him to come, but Meng Ruqing didn't let him go. He regretted not being able to wash his son's feet in the first place. All his life, now he wants to clean up his grandson himself and make up for his shortcomings.

Although his movements were a bit unfamiliar, at least he did not make any mistakes. He wiped his face hard, but the child did not cry and was very obedient when asked to raise his arms. Meng Ruqing felt that Brother Zhao had really taught both children well. Very good. After washing, he carried them to bed. He lay down in the innermost room, Qin Hengxuan slept outside, and the three children slept in the middle.

Chapter 416

: Qin Hengxuan had longed for this scene countless times, but he could only have it in his dreams.

When Meng Ruqing was pregnant, Qin Hengxuan often thought that when the child was born, he would sleep with them, sleeping between him and Brother Qing. He would not be like others, throwing the child away to the servants after birth. The wet nurse took care of him, and he had to take care of him with his own hands and watch him grow up slowly. His husband and child were his life, and he had to keep them under his radar so that he could sleep.

He would not press the child - he had 'practiced' it. When Meng Ruqing was first pregnant, he had 'practiced' it with a small pillow in the middle.

Meng Ruqing didn't understand at that time, he just thought he was afraid of touching himself, but he was only two months old at that time. Sometimes when he got up, he saw that the little pillow had been squashed, and it was clear that he had not touched himself, but Qin Hengxuan was in a cold sweat. Meng Ruqing looked frightened after getting wet. Meng Ruqing asked him what was wrong, but Qin Hengxuan said it was okay and he had a nightmare. But in fact, he felt that if he said this, he was afraid of Meng Ruqing's joke, because Qin Hengxuan once asked Mrs. Qin: "Mom, when I Did he sleep with you or Aunt Zhong when he was born?

"Follow me! What's wrong?"

"Did you and your dad treat me

as your own parents ?" Pigs! I have never heard of any parents overpowering their children, only sows."

Qin Hengxuan had the nerve to tell the truth to Meng Ruqing.

Later, he didn't dare to sleep too deeply, so he kept tensing up and practiced hard for more than half a year. For him, that half year was like a year.

After Meng Ruqing became pregnant with the child, she was no longer as distant and indifferent as before, and her whole person had a warmer temperament. Qin Hengxuan liked it very much.

When he was sleepy, he would subconsciously and extremely long to hug Meng Ruqing, but it was like there was a tight string inside his body, constantly warning him that his 'child' was in the middle, and he could not press his child.

So in just six months, he developed a terrible habit - when he fell asleep, he would unconsciously let go of Meng Ruqing, distance himself from him, and automatically move his body back.

Meng Ruqing was so sensitive. Qin Hengxuan's subconscious actions after falling asleep and the feeling of loss in his heart were like a slap in the face. He felt that Qin Hengxuan was blaming him, but he couldn't blame anyone. It was all his own fault.

Qin Hengxuan has imagined this scene countless times, and the picture is so clear that it seems to be engraved in the bone marrow. But then...

it went round and round for most of his life, but now it seems that his dream has come true.

Meng Ruqing was telling stories to the children in a gentle voice.

Fang Zichen used to tell them stories when he was putting them to sleep, but Fang Zichen didn't like to do things, so when Brother Zhao was away, he told ghost stories. The three children were frightened, and even rolled over. I wet the bed, but the more I listened, the more energetic I became.

Brother Zhao was here, but Fang Zichen still told an unserious story - Snow White vs. Godzilla.

The children listened with excitement. Every time Fang Zichen told it, his mouth was dry and the children still didn't sleep. He felt that the TV series were all lies. Telling stories was not hypnosis, it was just a chicken blood.

Although Meng Ruqing was not as good as Fang Zichen, and the stories she told were warm and plain, and the lullabies were the same, Guaizi and Gungundandan couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

Gungundandan felt bored after listening to it, so he got up from under the quilt and said he wanted to play for a while before going to sleep.

Meng Ruqing smiled: "What do you want to play?"

Gungundandan said he wanted to perform and let Guaizi and Meng Ruqing guess.

Qin Hengxuan moved the brazier to the edge of the bed, and then leaned against the head of the bed, putting his long legs on the edge of the bed to protect them from falling.

Now Dandan was kneeling on the quilt, supporting his hands, and then raised his right foot: "Uncle beauty, handsome grandpa, and Guo Guo, guess what Dandan's performance is about?"

Qin Hengxuan and Meng Ruqing watched for a while, and also I can't tell what he's imitating.

The good boy frowned and thought for a while, then said loudly: "Wild dogs pee, right?"

"That's right, Guo Guo is so smart." Dandan said happily.

Qin Hengxuan: "..."

Meng Ruqing: "..."

I didn't observe the dog peeing, so I suffered a loss.

"Come on Gungun." Gungun put his hands on the sides of his legs, and then he started to crawl on the bed, pouting his little buttocks: "You guess Gungun's performance is Ximo's animal."

Qin Hengxuan and Meng Ruqing were amused by Gungun's appearance. , kept poking his soft butt, but racking my brains I still couldn't figure it out.

The good boy laughed again: "It's Chong Chong."

Gun Gun: "Guo Guo guessed the bird correctly, but what kind of insect is it?"

Good boy: "The kind of bugs that drip in the latrine."

Gun Gun: "Guo Guo again. That's right."

Qin Hengxuan: "..."

Meng Ruqing: "..."

Meng Ruqing's eyelashes trembled slightly, slightly confused: "What insects are there in the latrine?" Are there any worms in the latrine? Why hasn't he seen it?

The good boy looked at him in surprise, as if you were so ignorant, and said, "Ah! Beautiful uncle, have you never seen maggots?"

Meng Ruqing was immediately speechless. He really had never seen them. Qin The hut in the house is clean, and you often dig it out. It's not like in the village. Just dig a hole, put the wooden board on top, and leave a gap in the middle. When summer comes, the excrement water in the latrine is full of maggots, and their eggs are lying on the ground. When we went to the latrine at home, we saw the maggots swimming around in the excrement water. They were so happy that they wanted to catch them and feed them to the chickens, but the excrement water was deep and smelly, so they didn't dare to reach down. .

Now it was Dandan's turn to perform again. Qin Hengxuan saw him scratching his face and buttocks, as if he had lice on his body, and then he looked around again.

His eyebrows were pounding, what was he acting?

Guaizai felt that Dandan's performance was very similar and obvious, and he didn't say anything. He wanted Qin Hengxuan and Meng Ruqing to guess. However, the two looked at each other and racked their brains to make a few guesses, but none of them were correct.

Gungun couldn't stand it anymore: "How can you tie a chicken? The beautiful uncle and handsome grandpa are so stupid. How can they do it if they are so stupid!"

Qin Hengxuan was heartbroken, and now he suffered the loss of not having any knowledge: "...Then what is Dandan acting? Can Gungun tell grandpa?"

"Dandan is acting like a monkey! Why can't you see it? Then Gungun imitates an obvious one for you to see. , take a guess."

Then Meng Ruqing saw Gungun crawling on the bed, rubbing his head against the pillow - what was this imitation of?

Are he and Brother Qing really too stupid?

Meng Ruqing and Qin Hengxuan guessed for a long time but failed to guess it. The boy said: "This is a wild boar and cabbage!" "

..."

Qin Hengxuan and Meng Ruqing were completely convinced and speechless.

The first person really didn't see it, but the good boy said it like this, and it was vivid, but the first person didn't expect it, because he had never seen it before.

Dandan pouted and kissed Qin Hengxuan and Meng Ruqing. Suddenly, Qin Hengxuan asked him in shock why he wanted to kiss all of a sudden.

The eggs were whirring, with a fat belly, and he sighed and said: "Father said birds, we must care for the mentally retarded. Uncle Meiren, handsome grandpa, how can you tie it up well if you are so unworldly! Oh~, pot Guo, come here and give them some love. As long as everyone gives a little love, the world will become a beautiful place."

Meng Ruqing: "..."

Qin Hengxuan: "..."

His hands are a little bit. I feel itchy and want to hit someone for no reason.

These guys are really little bastards.

Qin Hengxuan gritted his teeth. He was still unconvinced and got into a fight with Guaizai and Geggan, saying that it was his turn to imitate and you guys would guess.

His magic defeated magic, and he imitated animals that were unknown to Guaizi and Gungundan. Several children felt that he was being dishonest, so they got on top of him and started to fight with Qin Hengxuan noisily.

"Handsome grandpa is a deadbeat. Why don't you howl like a wolf?"

"That's right."

"You didn't howl when you were imitating a bug!"

"Ah! Why is this like this!"

"Don't listen to grandpa, Dandan. " Chongchong doesn't know how to scream."

"Then grandpa wants to trick Dandan? You need to use a big trick on Dandan."

"You bastard, are you tickling me?" Go, dear boy, don't sit on my face! You haven't washed your butt tonight. Brother Qing, come and help me. These boys are going to crush me to death. Please save me, or I will become a widow. "Yeah."

The boy giggled happily, and the few of them rolled into a ball.

Meng Ruqing was amused and watched them making trouble with warm eyes.

There was so much noise here that even General Qin heard it, and he felt sour in his heart: "The child hasn't gone to bed yet?" He called to Mrs. Qin: "Then you go and bring the children over, and I'll take a look at them."

Mrs. Qin laughed angrily: "Don't look at what time it is now. Brother Qing is not in good spirits recently. Let the children spend more time with him!" She lowered her eyes slightly and said, "I haven't heard this from our boss for a long time.

"Yeah! But these kids are really rare. I don't have any regrets now," General Qin stopped mid-sentence and sighed slightly . I still want to meet Mr. Fang, this kid, I have never seen him before!"

The three children were tired from playing and just wanted to sleep. Gungun hugged Meng Ruqing's arm as if holding Fang Zichen, and hugged him tightly, Meng Ruqing gently Patting his chest, Brother Zhao often used to coax him to sleep like this, and he fell asleep in no time.

Meng Ruqing covered them with quilts, and under the dim light, her eyes lingered almost greedily on the rosy little faces of the three children.

Qin Hengxuan kissed the boy, sat up gently, took a cloak from the table next to him and handed it to Meng Ruqing: "Let's go!"

The two went to General Qin's place. The two old men were not asleep yet, and Mrs. Qin had not taken off the hairpin on her head, as if she was waiting for them to come over.

Mrs. Qin asked: "Are the children asleep?"

Meng Ruqing said: "They are all asleep."

"Are you not making trouble?" Gungundandan is still young, so it's okay to play during the day, but Mrs. Qin is worried that they will make trouble when they go to bed at night. Brother Zhao.

Meng Ruqing smiled: "No, they are all well-behaved."

Mrs. Qin stood up worriedly: "It's cold outside the Great Wall, let me go and have a look."

Qin Hengxuan had been playing with several children for half an hour, and now he felt very tired and his brain was But he was very excited and didn't stop her. There was charcoal burning in the tent, and there were two quilts covering the bed. The child must not be cold, but he knew that Mrs. Qin loved the child, so he would definitely not feel at ease if he didn't go and see with his own eyes.

General Qin was in good spirits, but his heart felt empty when he couldn't see the child. He wanted to coax the child to sleep here at night, but he wanted to sleep with Meng Ruqing, so he couldn't compete with Meng Ruqing. At this moment Looking at Qin Hengxuan, he said, "Is Fang Zichen your son?"

Qin Hengxuan sat down and said, "It should be."

"What do you mean should?" General Qin was unhappy and glared at him, almost staring: "He is. Can he and Guaizai be like Brother Qing? Can Dandan be like you? When will you go and pick him up? I want to see him right away."

"Dad," Qin Hengxuan said helplessly, "It's just our guess now. "Although this guess is close to ten, it is the only one that can be justified.

But at this age, Qin Hengxuan didn't dare to die.

General Qin sighed and said no more.

The Qin family felt like they were wrapped in a thick fog. Every time they tried to break free, something else always pulled them back. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't figure it out or understand it.

When the child was thrown away from a place like Donghuan Ling, their rationality told them that the child would definitely not survive. However, at such a height, as soon as the child was thrown away, the Qin soldiers immediately went down to look for him, but no one was found. Even if he was If something was picked up and taken away, or smashed into a pulp, there would at least be some traces of blood left behind - but no, the surrounding area was dug up and searched, and there was no trace at all.

The child just disappeared.

The Qin family secretly felt that the child was still alive, but when they were still rational, they thought it was impossible - the cliffs were so high that even an adult man would be instantly shattered into pieces if he fell. How could a newborn child still survive? ?

Fang Zichen is twenty-three years old. If the child had not been abandoned, he would have been twenty. Fang Zichen is three years older, and he came from overseas. Even if the child did not die, there is no way he would live overseas! Who carried him there?

The surrounding area was immediately blocked by Qin soldiers, and no one could get close...

But what did Dandan say?

The mysteries are one after another, confusing and impossible to explain.

"I have identified Fang Zichen as his grandson. I fell in love with these three children as soon as I saw them. I feel that these are my great-grandsons." General Qin said firmly but as if he was convincing himself: "It doesn't matter if you can't figure these things out. You should be able to understand them when you meet Fang Zichen. He will definitely know that he must be a descendant of our Qin family. Xuan'er, go and pick him up." Here he

comes again!

"Dad, he is now working in Quzhou." Qin Hengxuan rubbed his eyebrows and said with a headache: "He protects the good boy so much, but this time he asked the good boy to come alone without escorting him. I think he has to go back for something urgent. I He really couldn't get away. "

It's not that he didn't want to see the child. When he saw Dandan, he couldn't even stay for a moment. He wanted to go to Fang Zichen right away. That might be the son he had been thinking about for twenty years. ! Is it possible to go?

What should we do behind the scenes if he goes here? Who will take charge? Lieutenant General Lu has been following the Qin family for decades, but he rebelled as soon as he could. The Lin and Feng families are now guarding both ends of the border and are not in the rear. He cannot trust the people around him. Does he dare to leave?

Can he just abandon important matters and leave here for his own selfish interests? If something happened during this period, he couldn't afford it.

Meng Ruqing lowered his eyelids, half-covering his eyes with violent emotions, and said nothing. He wanted to see the child more than anyone else. Thinking of Fang Zichen, his heart could not control his chest.

But he also knew that neither he nor Qin Hengxuan could escape at this juncture.

He was willful once and suffered for twenty years. He must not do it a second time.

Mrs. Qin came back after a while, her eyes a little wet and red.

Everyone discussed together for a long time. Although it was very foggy and some things were completely unexplainable, they still couldn't restrain Fang Zichen's curiosity.

The Qin family had heard about him from the secret guards and Guaizi, and had never had any contact with him. Now they were curious.

Mrs. Qin had already regarded Fang Zichen as her grandson. She called Aunt Zhong to call Uncle Tang and asked him: "What kind of person is Mr. Fang?"

Uncle Tang said: "The master and the master look very alike. , but taller than the master."

Meng Ruqing is not short among the brothers, only 1.76 meters tall.

Qin Hengxuan asked: "Are you the same as me?"

Uncle Tang said: "You are taller than you, young master."

Qin Hengxuan was more than eight feet tall, and he was considered to be outstanding. General Qin banged his bed and said: "This head, is I am the son of the Qin family."

Qin Hengxuan: "..."

Meng Ruqing asked Uncle Tang how Fang Zichen has been doing in recent years. Is there anyone bullying him in Ganzhou? What does he like? What do you like to eat?

Uncle Tang's eyelids twitched, what did the Lord think? How could someone bully their master? It was always their master who bullied others. He replied one by one: "My favorite is Lord Zhao and his three children, followed by money and taking advantage of others. He is not picky about food, but he doesn't like ginger..."

He To be more detailed, the last time someone was sent to Beijing to investigate, the secret guard came back and said that Fang Zichen liked to take advantage of others. Now Uncle Tang said again, Meng Ruqing asked: "Why does he like to take advantage of others?"

Uncle Tang hesitated and was embarrassed. explain.

Later, I still called Zhang Quanlai, and when I heard about what people were doing in southern Shu - letting the good boy carry sacks to patrol the streets, just to occupy two handfuls of vegetables, he couldn't eat them later, and he couldn't bear to throw them away, so he insisted on transporting them back from southern Shu. , as a result, most of them died on the road, and they also found various excuses to use public funds to reward the good young master, and then secretly divided the spoils... There are so many things that it is difficult to write down, and it is really too many to count.

When the Qin family heard this, they were silent for a long time. They felt a little embarrassed, their faces were burning, and they felt a little funny. They asked Zhang Quan to go out, and then General Qin said sadly: "Did this child have a hard time when he was a child? "

Uncle Tang shook his head. Although Fang Zichen picked a little, he didn't look like he was raised in poverty. On the contrary, his behavior was more arrogant than the prince. As for why he was so greedy for money, he didn't know.

But Qin Hengxuan probably could have guessed that the good boy had such a big appetite. Their family used to live in the village. How could they raise a child who was not greedy or picky? It was really hard on his son.

None of the Qin family could sleep much that night. Their hearts were greatly shaken. Zichen was excited, happy, and thinking of ways to do it. He couldn't get enough of it all night long.

Uncle Tang and Zhang Quan kept asking and answering questions, but Guaizi had to come. When asked what kind of person his father was, Guaizi couldn't finish talking for three days and three nights.

He had guarded the village, committed robberies, pretended to be a ghost, scared people so much that they peed their pants, went to the mountains to pick pears, and was chased by the common people carrying hoes, but he didn't catch up, and he and his father ran away. Quickly.

Guaizi kept laughing when he talked about it. He talked in detail. Everyone could imagine the scenes and couldn't help but laugh. Guaizi was so weird, and his emotions were all led by Fang Zichen.

Mrs. Qin was holding Gungun in her arms and giving him a thumbs up. She was laughing so much that her stomach ached, and she said, "This kid has one bad idea after another."

"No." General Qin said, "That's right. I know he is from our Qin family. Although he is the top scholar, look at him, does he look like a scholar? I really want to meet that kid right away."

Meng Ruqing was also smiling, and kept picturing Fang Zichen's appearance in his mind. This kid's temperament is not like him, but like Brother Xuan. He doesn't like to do serious things, but his brain is very bright.

"Does your father really look like me?" Meng Ruqing couldn't help but ask.

The good boy nodded: "Yes, but Uncle Beauty, why do you ask that? Have you met my father?"

Meng Ruqing paused: "No!"

"Ah!" The good boy scratched his head: "But my father He said that he had seen you when you were riding in the big carriage. His father said that he was so frightened that he lost all his souls. He also said that your horses were so cool that Grandpa Yang hired them. ."

Meng Ruqing remembered it immediately.

It was four years ago when he returned to Hengyang from the capital. For some unknown reason on the road, his heart was beating so hard that he raised the car curtain and saw a young man. At that time, their eyes met. Later, he instinctively I looked back, but couldn't see it anymore.

At that time, his chest was swollen and tight, and he couldn't distinguish any emotions. It turned out that...

they had met him a long time ago, but he could not recognize his son.

Meng Ruqing covered her head and squatted down in pain.

Although they still wanted to hear more, there were many things to do, so Meng Ruqing and Qin Hengxuan went to work, leaving the three little guys behind General Qin.

Probably because people are in high spirits during happy events, Lao Jiang came over to change Old General Qin's dressing and found that his high fever had subsided, and he was relieved.

General Qin asked him how the wounded soldiers were doing. Lao Jiang said in a heavy tone that they were almost gone.

There were more than 2,930 casualties in the vanguard, and more than 1,800 people died in Canyon Ridge. However, the number of wounded soldiers brought back now is less than a hundred who can survive.

General Qin felt a little out of breath. The knuckles of his clenched fists were white, the veins on the back of his hands were obviously protruding, and his chest seemed to be blocked by something.

Lao Jiang said: "General, this is not your fault."

It is because he does not know people well, and he bears most of the responsibility.

General Qin was speechless and nodded with great effort.

The day Guaizi arrived, he saw many people being carried out. He passed by him at that time. The corpses were not covered with white cloth. After listening to the conversation between Lao Jiang and Old General Qin, he immediately said: "I wrote to my father and asked him to Send Sister Tang and the others over."

General Qin didn't even have to ask carefully. He ran to Meng Ruqing, borrowed a pen, and wrote a letter in person, saying that he would find someone to send Zhang Quan back to Quzhou.

The author has something to say:

There has been a lot of noise in the comment area in the past few days. I am also sorry that I have not been able to reply one by one. I have not replied since I broke my hand bone, but I have read it, so I am not saying no. I care about you. I typed thousands of words a day with one hand, and it was already eleven o'clock when I finished typing. What's more, after I was reported before, my reply didn't show up all day long. I also paid for it, just to review it. I thought that by the time it was displayed, no one would read it, so I simply didn't reply.

A little Kenai said that I can only read good reviews, not bad ones, and the comments have been deleted by me. So far, I have indeed deleted a few, including three that scolded the good guy for being mentally retarded. Don't ask me why I remember it so clearly, because I deleted it. I was reported later (I don't know if it's the same person.) I'm not talking nonsense. You may have discovered that some of my chapters have been locked for a while, including those I posted for several months. Then, I also specifically wrote about the story of Guaizi talking in the novel, because Brother Zhao wanted him to change it, so I remember it very clearly.

These are not excuses.

If you don't see the comment next time, it should be deleted by the administrator, don't blame me. It makes me seem like such a person.

Also, every time there is a quarrel in the comment area, there is always a reader who jumps out and keeps scolding me, saying that I am arrogant and do not accept opinions. Previously, because of the water issue, I said to change it, but later I got stuck. I wrote the article, but I couldn't write it. After thinking about it, I clearly said in my composition that I would not change it. I wanted to finish the article according to my own ideas. I said it clearly, but she still didn't see it. I see, yesterday I brought this matter up again, saying what happened to me. After all, I still go my own way (I should have learned from some authors and declined guidance directly in the copywriting.)

Regarding the issue of Kawen, I was stuck before. There, I'm really sorry. Some readers said they wanted to block me, and I accepted it, because this is the author's freedom. I did something wrong and I deserved to be offended.

So I didn't mention it yesterday, but I can predict that next time there will probably be some people saying that I won't change my life and death. If I get stuck, I personally think the plot should end here, or it should be written today. It's not over, I've uploaded so much first, but some little ones may not feel it, and say that I'm stuck and she wants to see the place, damn, I haven't changed it, this author really doesn't accept opinions at all, Once, she just explained a lot in a long way. Next time, she would do the same thing and go her own way. But can I finish it all at once? If I'm stuck at the point where I'm about to eat, I don't think it's okay to be stuck here. If there's a kid who wants to watch the meal, and I stop here, do I have to say it again? I can think of it all.

I accept all of this, it's no big deal.

But the reader first said that I was stupid, and Qianer said that I wanted to write short articles at first, but the more I wrote later, the more stupid I was, because I made money, and I did it on purpose. I also saw that someone liked it.

This feels like you are throwing dirty water on me. I must say that when I wrote the article, when I filled in the information about the approximate number of the article, I wrote it casually because I didn't understand it and felt that this was not important. I don't know how many there are in terms of hundreds of thousands of words. The most I wrote was just one paper. When I first started writing the paper, I thought hundreds of thousands of words was a lot, so I just filled in a number at random, and later I took my master to see him. I wrote that I exceeded the limit and said that I would tell the editor who was supervising me. I also told the editor, but I still went for the lowest number because the master said that the number you reported was too much, but in fact you did not write it. If there is any suspicion of cheating on the list, then I feel that it is better to say less than to say too much.

At that time I only had the outline! I only wrote the beginning (I haven't taken the scientific examination yet) and I have no experience. I don't know how many words it will really be if I write it down in detail. I applied for the minimum one, and then I exceeded it, but I didn't dare to ask the editor again. The editor said that he felt that he was going back on his word and was very embarrassed.

The longer I write, the longer it gets. These are all facts, but it doesn't exist that I did it intentionally when I subscribed later.

Xiao Kenai, you can check it out. My article started to be uploaded in mid-September last year. I hadn't signed up the contract when it was more than fifty chapters (I mentioned it in the text, and it wasn't added on purpose just now. If it were added today, I just added it. You can look at the date to know whether it is true. However, I have changed some chapters later to catch bugs and add locks. The time should be messed up, but it is definitely not the date of this one. Can you See for yourself.) Not signing a contract means that I don't have any money. I can't even invest in mines. I really don't have any money.

Let's go back to my chapter. It's over 80 chapters long. This means that when I wrote more than 80 years ago, I didn't make a penny. But you can take a look at the content of these chapters to see if the male protagonist is still there. In the village? Is it the same 'water' as before?

When it was more than one hundred and ten chapters or a few chapters, people started to jump out and say that I was stupid.

If I really only go here for the money, do I need water at this time?

It's not about promoting myself, nor is it just empty talk, you can check it out.

When I had 600,000 to 700,000 words, I still had a collection of more than 2,000, with more than 100 clicks at the end, which meant that I only had a few dollars a day at that time. I remember it very clearly, because at that time I comforted myself and said that it was okay. , at least I can buy a cup of milk tea.

My master said that the data of my article is not very good. If I want to make money, I should finish it and start a new article as soon as possible. But I haven't finished it yet. I still write that the male protagonist is in the village. If I want to make money, I should write it as soon as possible. It took me a hundred years to finish the article. Do you think I collected thousands of dollars for this article from the beginning? I make hundreds of dollars every day, and then I go crazy thinking about money, and I don't want it to end. Am I just a genius?

If you ask me if I love money, I would definitely say yes. But my original intention in writing this book was not for money, I just wanted to write it. I even wrote three books at once. Later I focused on this book and the other two. There are no updates, but if you can make some money, that would be even better! So this reader, why do you say that I just made money and then deliberately wrote about it later? I know I can have this collection later? ? Do I have the ability to foresee?

If I really go for the money, I won't get a dime up front, and when more than 800,000 words only cost about ten yuan a day, I will hastily sell it. Do you understand, you have risen to my own character! Do you feel that you don't have to be responsible when speaking on the Internet, so you can say whatever you want? I have more than 1.6 million words, and only 9,000 have been received (not everyone has read it, because the latest chapter published at the moment only has a few clicks) Only a hundred.) A total of more than eight months, is this considered good?

Have you ever seen those who earned tens of thousands for just a few hundred thousand words? Do the math, am I making a lot, so I got screwed later? Some people also said that I deleted the comment because I had to say it was a good thing. Did you read the comments before saying this? Are all the comments section 'praising' me?

Think before you speak! It's not that I won't tell you that my writing is not good, I am not a great person, even if someone is a great person, some people say that I am not good at it! But I don't accept it when you say I'm so 'unbearable'.

Good comments, it is no exaggeration to say that I am very happy every time I see them. These are the things that keep me going. I even take screenshots and read them again.

Some people also question my academic qualifications. I don't have any very high academic qualifications. I just graduated from an ordinary university. I started reading novels in the first year of junior high school, but at that time, I was the kind of romance novel with a Japanese manga girl on the cover that the top student in school fell in love with. My real exposure to novels such as Danmei was in my freshman year, in the back seat of the lecture hall. Erha was recommended by a classmate. I officially got into the trap. I didn't take many professional courses. I really read a lot of novels in those years, like So-and-so, Luo Chi, these campus novels, ABO, Cultivation, Xiao Bing had read them all. Later, in the second year after I started working, I watched The Ten Years of Favorite You, which depressed me for a long time, coupled with the pressure of work. So, I wanted to find another new kind of writing to read, and then I came across the flow-style farming writing.

I particularly like the short story about the family, which is described in detail, like a living story. I felt very comfortable after reading it, and it felt a bit like a paradise. I couldn't sleep at night, so I fantasized that I had traveled through time. The more I thought about it, the more incredible it became. I haven't found any articles that match my heart. Either they are not rigorous or they are too weak. I just wanted to do it myself, so what I wrote was naturally based on what I liked.

But to be honest, I have read so many novels, all of which have written about the inner lives of supporting characters. Little Kenai, what novel did you read before? So I even described a lot about the psychological activities of the supporting characters, but you didn't even write about it when you read it? He also said that I might as well start a new story with a supporting role.

I explained, but you said I still go my own way, why do I explain so much? You can say that even if I give you an explanation, but if you don't explain, last time you said I was arrogant, and this time you said I was deliberately cheating to make money. What should you say to me next time? What water are you pouring on me? Is there a problem with people who have incorrect outlook on life?

Do you know that you are misleading people?

Maybe what you want to read is 'The male protagonist goes to farm and is very tired', but what I want to write is 'The male protagonist goes to farm and how bright the sun is, how dense the grass is in the ground, and how well the corn grows. How did he work so hard to hoe half an acre of land? What I want to write is this, and you just say that I am useless? How funny! I type four or five hours a day, all the time, just to make a few bucks. Don't you think it's funny? Do you think it's worth it? To be honest, I make more money than picking up trash.

Chapter 417

Qin Hengxuan and Meng Ruqing also wanted to write a letter to Fang Zichen, but after picking up the pen, they didn't know what to write.

After several days of working day and night, and this sudden and huge surprise, the night had passed, but the two of them still couldn't believe it. They were so excited that their brains seemed to be in a state of hazy dreaming about this matter. In a realistic state, the wind was trembling, and the hand holding the pen was shaking uncontrollably.

Moreover, they are "cowardly in their hometown". They are afraid of being abrupt, frightening their children, or making inappropriate words, making others unhappy. They only send a letter and always feel that it is not appropriate to pay no attention to it.

The child didn't know what happened at the beginning, and had ignored it for twenty years. When he needed the protection of his father and dad the most, they failed to show up. They didn't know what kind of life the child had lived before. If he lived an unfortunate life, then there would be Wasn't there a moment when he resented them so much?

Now that people have grown up, are promising, can do everything well, no longer need father and dad, and no longer need protection, but they suddenly appear, can he accept it?

Qin Hengxuan and Meng Ruqing were particularly afraid that their children would disown them. If they had a grudge against them but failed to explain in time, Fang Zichen would probably send someone to take the three children back immediately, and then avoid them at a distance, and write a few words in the letter. It's impossible to tell clearly.

Some things are urgent, but they make people feel timid and uneasy. They can clearly ask questions in a letter, and all the doubts that bother them can be explained. They can't wait to get to know their son, and want to ask their children about their original lives. Does he know what's going on? But they dare not write, always having worries of one kind or another.

Faintly worried, but also faintly afraid.

Meng Ruqing wrote for a long time, not daring to write a word. Finally, after much thought, Qin Hengxuan loaded 40,000 taels of silver notes, and Meng Ruqing wrote a letter to Brother Zhao and took it with him to the Imperial Guard.

Qin Hengxuan personally sent Qin Shiyi, who was responsible for collecting intelligence and confidential matters for the Qin family.

Although it has not been confirmed, the Qin family can't wait.

In the afternoon, a soldier from the Qin family on the border carried a package, took General Qin, Mrs. Qin, and letters from Meng Ruqing, and rode back to the capital as fast as the wind, with a hundred thousand dollars.

The soldier was wearing armor, with the Qin family's conspicuous symbol clearly on his helmet, and no one dared to stop him along the way.

After half a month's work, the letters were delivered to Shangshu's Mansion, Zuo Xiang's Mansion, and the Imperial Palace.

Mrs. Qin originally brought a large dowry, more than 20 taels, three villages and six shops. Now one village and three shops are idle - the second house sent a letter last month, saying euphemistically that she wanted to marry her legitimate daughter. It was given to the Minister of Household Affairs. The shop under their second wife's name was not good and the shop was small. It was a shabby dowry. The husband's family sent many betrothal gifts, so they had to give a larger dowry, otherwise they would be in trouble. Family face.

The second bedroom then said with a shy face that Mrs. Qin was not in Beijing, and those shops were being rented out, so why not transfer them to the second bedroom?

It was said to be a transfer, but the second room just said it nicely. They knew that Mrs. Qin was always generous, so how could she really ask for money from them.

Mrs. Qin really looked down on several shops. She sent the house deeds back, but only to her eldest brother, asking him to help her add makeup.

But the second daughter-in-law was not married, but she wrote again, saying that she would not give it to her. She had a grandson, and her grandson loved money. She could no longer be lavish. Her three great-grandchildren also ate a lot, weighing several kilograms of rice a meal. It's not even enough to build the shop. She has to keep this shop for her grandson in the future. Brother, just help me add some silver taels when the time comes. Don't lick too much, just a few hundred taels will be enough. Now the family has a heavy burden, and the house deed is mailed to me. Come back to me.

Meng Ruqing's letter to the Zuo family briefly explained the situation - now it is just speculation by the Qin family, but he feels that Fang Zichen is his son, and his property in the capital will be sorted out for him, and he will give it to his son.

After reading the letter, the two families, Shang Shufang and Zuo Xiang, were confused for a long time. Maybe only 'other people' could see it clearly. Originally, they secretly thought that the child might be gone long ago. The first thing they thought after reading the letter was It was about whether someone else had deceived the Qin family, but when he looked again, he saw that this person was Fang Zichen.

That was absolutely impossible. This kid was not that kind of person. Moreover, the letter mentioned about Dandan and Qin Hengxuan, which made the two families think about the fact that the child was neither alive nor dead.

The two families were indescribably happy. Although there were many aspects that they had not thought clearly about, there are no such coincidences in this world. Mrs. Zuo Xiang

burst into tears after reading the letter: "I said at the beginning that I felt close to Fang Xiaozi and Guaizi. It turned out that they were my grandsons, but I, I didn't even recognize him."

Patting his thigh: "Who would have thought! That bastard boy must have lied about his age. Ouch, madam, why did you hit me?"

Mrs. Zuo Xiang glared: "Don't say that about my dear grandson. He must have some reason for doing this. His reason."

Mr. Zuo said, "Well, don't call him a bastard."

Ms. Zuo said, "Xuan'er said it's just a guess, but I think it's not wrong. Mr. Fang loves money, so go ahead and fuck him." One egg is enough for three, I'm afraid it will be more difficult to raise. I have to give Brother Qing some more things. Master, let's see, what should we give as a gift? Should we give it to the yard, the shop, or just give it a banknote?"

said Zuo Xiang !

He said: "Give me a banknote. Last time I gave you a banknote, the father and son laughed so hard that they couldn't see their eyes. They also said that I am honest. If you want to give it away, Fang will turn around and sell it to you." Xia Jinghong's letter was written tactfully. General Qin said that he was seriously injured and had a narrow escape from death! Although he has survived now, he is very weak.

Xia Jinghong looked at the letter, his forehead twitching.

I said at first that I was afraid that he would be worried, so I didn't tell him, so why did I tell him in a letter now?

It's nothing, I'm just injured. Your Majesty, don't you need some condolences?

How to express condolences?

They must have sent a large amount of supplements and stuff!

Just saying, Uncle Qin, you have worked hard, this is not acceptable! I can't feel your sincerity and attention.

The whole two letters revealed that one wanted a reward.

Xia Jinghong held up the letter and looked back and forth, wondering if it was a fake letter. But it was definitely the handwriting of Old General Qin, but what happened to Old General Qin? The family is big and the business is big. It has never been like this before! Why focus on his already depleted treasury now?

But people have asked, it won't work without heavy bleeding.

Xia Jinghong has lived in the Qin family for many years, but he regards Old General Qin as his master. As long as he is fine now, he can bear no matter how much pain he has, just empty out his little treasury.

move!

The matter of Lieutenant General Lu's rebellion had already been reported by Qin Hengxuan. Lieutenant General Lu was a second-rank official and was actually a minister of the imperial court. People like this had to be dealt with only by 'reporting'.

Lieutenant General Lu rebelled and joined forces with the enemy to fight back against their Daxia army, causing thousands of casualties. This was a serious crime. Xia Jinghong had already issued an order to kill the nine tribes.

...

Qin Hengxuan and Meng Ruqing were busy until the evening. After checking the time, they were about to take a break and go over to eat with the children. However, when they arrived at General Qin's place, they saw that no one was in the tent, not even General Qin. Suddenly, there was laughter from the kitchen. As soon as Meng Ruqing and Qin Hengxuan passed by, they saw Guaizi and Gungundan sitting naked in a pot. Mrs. Qin and Uncle Tang were giving them a bath.

General Qin got flustered when he couldn't see his children. Now he asked Qin Yi to help him come over and watched happily: "Young man Fang is still smart. If you wash like this, my little sweet grandchildren won't be able to stay cold. "

Meng Ruqing and Qin Hengxuan suddenly didn't know what to say, so they gathered around him and saw that he was sitting there with a belly full of circles. He was so fat that it was inexplicably funny.

At night, General Qin coaxed the three children to sleep with him, but Gundam didn't want to. This grandpa loved to bite, and their faces hurt. General Qin was extremely disappointed, but the good boy stayed behind. Only then did General Qin become happy again.

He recovered well, and within a few days he was able to play with Gougandan. Occasionally, he could give guidance when the good boy was exercising.

At this moment, the good boy was boxing in the camp for Gungun Dandan to watch. Mrs. Qin peeled two oranges for Gungun Dandan, and peeled another one for Old General Qin. He had difficulty with his left hand, so he didn't break it into pieces to eat, but just now After taking a bite, half of the orange accidentally fell to the ground. Gungun saw it, picked it up and found that it was not dirty, so he blew it, and handed his own to General Qin like an exchange. The orange that fell on the ground was picked up by him. After finishing the meal in two or three bites, he patted his little fat hand to cheer for the good boy.

"Guo Guo is so annoying!"

General Qin and Mrs. Qin were stunned.

The child's subconscious actions really touched their hearts. It was so warm that their hearts seemed to melt. The child was sensible and should obviously be happy and smile, but now his eyes were sore.

General Qin had been hugging Gungun that day and refused to let go. The child was so soft and he was the only brother among the fourth generation of the Qin family. He loved him to death.

The Qin family has been prosperous and yin has declined. For several generations, there has been no girl brother. If it weren't for this, when Mrs. Qin wanted to adopt Qin Hengxuan, she would not have thought of choosing from her natal family and Brother Qing's family. .

General Qin kissed Gungun again, and Gungun's cheeks turned red from the kiss. General Qin hugged him and said, "We Gungun are so filial."

"Huh?" Gungun didn't quite understand.

Old General Qin: "I know I love grandpa."

Gungun knew what he was referring to. He scratched his head and said, "Father and dad said that if something is dropped on the floor, it will be dirty. But if it is not dirty, then you will be happy. But your health is not good. If a person eats a bird, he will suffer from abdominal pain, which will make Gungun's health better. Grandpa is like an old bird, but no, Grandpa West Bird will turn into a snake. Grandpa Xidao, what is a snake? "

Old General Qin shook his head and said: " The lazy snake refused to take a bath and made a mess. Then it felt itchy and had pain in its belly, so it went to the doctor. On the way, it was caught by Snow White and the chef Xiao Fugui and took it to stew soup. , Just die."

General Qin and Mrs. Qin beside him couldn't help but laugh. It was probably Mr. Fang who was making up nonsense again to deceive the children.

Qin Shiyi's business ability is first-rate, and Fu'an Town is not far from the border. Shiyi came back after more than ten days, and the news he brought back made the Qin family fall into a new mystery.

Fang Zichen went to the Yamen to apply for household registration. A foreigner like him who wanted to settle in Daxia had to undergo layers of interrogations and strict inspections. If he was a criminal who escaped from outside, he would definitely not be able to settle in Daxia. But he had a good relationship with Lao Wang, and the village chief guaranteed that he was not a bad person. Lao Wang knew that he and his parents were in trouble at sea. Being chased, he ran to the mountain in a daze. He said that his parents were not here and he didn't want to go back. It was easy to get distracted by the situation. Since he had a husband and son in Daxia, he also wanted to stay.

Lao Wang knew it all, so he didn't ask any questions at all on the day he settled in. He only filled in the specific information. In the hometown column, Fang Zichen wrote "Eastern Tang Dynasty".

This is like a modern personal file. After filling it out, it was sealed by the civil servants. During the scientific examination, the civil servants only checked his household registration.

Overseas ships must be registered before entering the dock, and the control is extremely strict. However, Qin Shiyi collected information at the Yamen and discovered that in the year when Fang Zichen came, overseas ships had docked in Fu'an Town twice, once in early June and once again. At the beginning of September, people came from all over the country, and they were very mixed. There were countries similar to Daxia overseas, and there were also some small tribes, which were not very famous. Qin Shiyi had never heard of the Eastern Land and the Tang Dynasty. Check the relevant records overseas. Documents, found no records in the documents.

In June, there were more overseas tourists who came here to visit, and it was very difficult to check them one by one. The three officers and soldiers who were responsible for boarding the ship looked at the portrait of Meng Ruqing provided by Qin Shiyi, and looked at it for half. Qin Shiyi asked him if he had seen this person before. The three of them shook their heads without even thinking about it.

"Look carefully."

"Sir, I really haven't seen it before."

If it were an ordinary face, and a few years have passed, who could remember it at that time?

But the man in the portrait looks so outstanding! It is something that can be remembered with a single glance. If you have really seen it, you must have a deep memory. How could you forget it?

Moreover, Qin Yi described this person as having short hair, not long hair as in the portrait, and he was more than eight feet tall. Not to mention that there were few people with such a height in Fuan Town, even one who was 1.8 meters tall had not been seen before.

These three points are all different from others, and you will definitely remember them when you see them.

Were there any ships that passed through Bu An Town but did not dock?

Of course there was, but the bad boat behind them didn't stop all the way until it arrived at Qinzhou.

Qinzhou is thousands of miles away from Fu'an Town! There is no need to check documents when entering the town. You can enter the city. Except for children, scholars, and non-commissioned officers, the rest of the ordinary people must be interrogated and shown the way.

Fang Zichen had not settled down at that time, so it was impossible to come from Qinzhou.

But Fu'an Town didn't find out.

Qin Shiyi went to He's house and asked Old Man He.

Old Man He is already old, but the village chief is filial, and he broke his leg in the mountains before, so he can't walk very smoothly. He doesn't go to the ground much in these years, but he still looks energetic.

Seeing Qin Shiyi's cool face, he was extremely scared. When he heard the purpose of his visit, he thought something had happened to Fang Zichen and someone had come to check on him.

This guy is not bad-hearted, but he is a little greedy. Even if he becomes a high official, he will end up in jail if he can't control his greed!

Before Qin Shiyi could speak, Old Man He knelt down first and said tremblingly that Fang Zichen was only twenty-three now. Sir, did he make a mistake? But he is young and ignorant, please give him a chance to change his ways.

Qin Shiyi explained helplessly for a long time. When Old Man He heard this, he was just curious.

Old Man He suddenly no longer felt strange.

When the news about chemical fertilizers came out, people often came to their village to inquire about Mr. Fang!

But they are all small businessmen. I didn't expect the official to be curious at the moment!

Now Qin Shiyi asked what he was talking about. Old He stopped trembling and his speech was finally clear.

Qin Shiyi asked him about what happened in the mountains that year. Old He almost died on the mountain, and he was still frightened about it, but he remembered it clearly.

"I fell into a ditch and couldn't move. I caught a cold at night and started to feel drowsy the next day. I was about to fall asleep, but I heard someone screaming."

"What's your name?"

"Why don't you fucking come over here. , What else, Second Senior Brother, I have no grievances with you, why are you chasing me? Do you want to buy syrup urgently? It came from deep in the mountains. "

Old man He was so happy that he hurriedly called someone, but he didn't. At that time, he was hungry and dizzy, his voice was weak, and no one responded to him. Just when he was about to despair, the sound of Shasha's footsteps came, and Old Man He hurriedly called for someone.

Qin Shiyi: "...you said he came out of the mountains?"

Old Man He told the beautiful story about how he and Fang Zichen met that year, almost eight hundred times, every time I can talk non-stop even when I get up, and I'm not unhappy when I'm interrupted: "Yes!"

"Which mountain is it? Can you take me to see it?"

"What's wrong? Just move my old bones."

Qin Shiyi was taken to the place where Old Man He and Fang Zichen met. Old Man He pointed ahead. In the dense jungle, he said: "Master Fang came out of here originally. He said that he was chased by someone and had to hide inside."

After hearing this, Qin Shiyi asked Old Man He to go home first. He wanted to go in and take a look. At first glance, Old Man He said it was dangerous in the mountains, so say goodbye! It can be seen that Qin Shiyi did not listen to the advice, and it was hard to persuade the damn ghost with good words, so Old He had to come back alone.

Qin Shiyi went into the mountain to investigate and felt that Fang Zichen could not have been chased into the mountain.

Why?

Because this mountain is behind Xiaohe Village, the people in the village collectively call it the Back Mountain. There is only one road up the mountain. If outsiders want to enter the back mountain, they have to pass through the village, go to the back of the village, and follow the trail. If they were being chased back then - listen It is said that Mr. Fang is very skilled, and he was robbing people everywhere in the capital for a while. Ordinary men are definitely no match for him. If he really gets to the point where he cannot be beaten and has to escape, the other party will have to fight with so many people. , can no one notice when entering the village?

In front of the back mountain is Xiaohe Village, and at the foot of the mountain is the village of Xiaohe. The mountain behind is far away, and is connected to several large mountains. If he ran over from the other side of the mountain, it would be absolutely impossible, because just after entering the mountain, he saw several tigers. Shit.

It's probably more dangerous deep in the mountains.

I went back and adjusted the map. The mountains behind Xiaohe Village stretch for more than ten miles...

Where did Mr. Fang come from?

Qin Shiyi couldn't find any clues, but the eldest young master urged him urgently, so Qin Shiyi had no choice but to come back.

They couldn't figure out many things at first. Now when they heard Qin Shiyi's report, Qin Hengxuan and Meng Ruqing felt a sharp pain in their heads.

It didn't come by boat, so where did it come from? Did it just fall from the sky with a bang?

This kid's life experience has become a mystery.

Originally, they wanted to investigate clearly and then go directly to Quzhou to bring their son back. Otherwise, what if Fang Zichen didn't know about his life experience and they had no evidence and Fang Zichen didn't come back with them?

But now that all the capable officers have been sent out, they still can't find any useful information.

He frowned: "You first..."

"Young Master?"

It was Grandma Zhong's voice.

Meng Ruqing and Qin Hengxuan looked at each other, stood up and walked outside the account. They saw the boy holding a basin with something in it. It was red and green, and looked very appetizing.

It was hot and sour noodles, a big plate full. It turned out that Meng Ruqing and Qin Hengxuan were busy during lunch and could not go there, so the good boy volunteered to cook noodles for the beautiful uncle and handsome grandpa.

As a result, he didn't go back for a long time. General Qin asked Grandma Zhong to come over and take a look, but she saw the good boy standing outside the tent.

He didn't know when he came, and he didn't know how much he heard, but the hot and sour noodles were already cold, so he probably heard them all. Meng Ruqing sighed and touched his soft hair.

When they arrived at the camp, Meng Ruqing held him in her arms: "Did you hear everything?"

The boy nodded and said, "Why are you investigating my father?"

His father came from another time and space, how could he possibly find out? !

It's strange to find out.

Meng Ruqing and Qin Hengxuan looked at each other, then rubbed his hair, and said in a hoarse voice: "Because your father may be my son."

"What?" The good boy immediately said: "Uncle beauty, that's impossible. Meng Ruqing

frowned slightly: "Why?"

"Because my father..." The good boy suddenly stopped talking, covered his mouth with both hands, and stopped talking.

He knows!

Meng Ruqing's heart started to beat: "Good boy, tell me, why?"

Good boy's eyes flickered and he murmured in a low voice: "It's nothing."

Meng Ruqing looked disappointed: "Can't even the beautiful uncle tell you?"

Good boy saw him like this He was embarrassed, holding his hands: "I can't say, this is my father's secret. He said that my father was going to be burned. Uncle Beauty, don't ask. My father came from overseas. I have a grandfather, a grandmother, and Grandpa and grandma are awesome!" He tried to avoid the topic: "Uncle Beauty, do you know what a plane is?"

Meng Ruqing suppressed her heartbeat and said, "I don't know."

"A plane is a flying thing. , it can fly in the sky, and people can sit on it. My great-grandfather is a brave and invincible general who defends his family and the country. He can fly airplanes, which is very impressive." Guai Zai Niu said coaxingly.

Meng Ruqing said: "Is this what your father told you?"

"Yes!"

"You are bragging," Qin Hengxuan interrupted: "Except for birds, what else can fly into the sky! There is none overseas. I went there when I was young. I haven't seen the plane you mentioned overseas. "

Guaizi: "Hey! How can you brag? Of course there are none overseas. "

Qin Hengxuan 's hometown." , immediately said: "But you just said that your father is from overseas."

"I lied to you! My father... ah! Grandpa, you are talking nonsense." Guaizi reacted and immediately became unhappy.

Qin Hengxuan: "..."

This kid is hard to fool!

Guaizi pouted, and immediately stretched his head in front of Qin Hengxuan, pointed his little short finger at his head, and asked him: "Handsome grandpa, don't try to trick Guaizi. Did you see Guaizi drop this brain melon seed?"

Meng Ruqing didn't know why.

Qin Hengxuan: "I saw it."

Guaizi asked with a serious expression: "Is it big?"

This question was nonsense. Guaizi's big head is obvious to all. Qin Hengxuan replied: "Big."

Guaizi: "I know it." Why is it so big?"

Qin Hengxuan was confused by the question.

Ask him how he understands this?

Guaizi said: "Because it was made big by the brains, do you understand? Guaizi has such a big brain, and it is full of brains. It can't even fit in a plate. He is the most invincible and smartest person in the world. Don't try to trick Guaizi. Because it's all work in vain."

Qin Hengxuan: "..."

Meng Ruqing: "..."

The two of them couldn't help but laugh together, and their stomachs almost twitched.

Although I couldn't find out any valuable information, Guaizi's words undoubtedly confirmed that Fang Zichen was not from overseas. He lied, but why did he lie?

He appeared without warning, just like before. Is there something unspeakable or unspeakable in this?

Qin Hengxuan now desperately hopes that the Great Chao Kingdom will retreat as soon as possible. Mysteries one after another are making his mind burn. Moreover, he really misses his son.

Chapter 418:

The Dachao Kingdom has been preparing for this attack for twenty years. It is not like Daxia, which is surrounded by Da Liang, Beiqi and other small countries. There is only a small country in the north of Dachao, which is not something to be afraid of, and it is close to the west. Hai, now he can attack Daxia with the whole country, but the main force of Daxia is divided into two groups - the Qin Family Army and the Northwest Army.

The Qin family's army guards the south, and the northwest army guards the north. The national strength of the Great Chao Kingdom is equal to that of Daxia. Facing an enemy that is twice as many, no matter how powerful the Qin family's army is, it is impossible to repel them in a short time.

Now the two armies are facing each other, and no one can do anything to the other, and the battle situation is tense.

In early November, the two armies fought again outside the Great Wall, with Jiang Zhanying and Lu Zhenghe marching together.

When Qin Hengyi was not clear-headed before, he looked confused and unthreatening, but now his brows were slightly furrowed and his face was stern, giving people an overbearing and oppressive feeling. Lu Zhenghe was a little timid to talk to him.

"Why, you don't recognize me anymore?" Qin Hengyi asked Lieutenant General Lu coldly before the two armies fought: "Betrayed Daxia and joined the enemy's army. I originally thought that the Dachao Kingdom promised you the position of commander-in-chief, but now it seems that you are nothing more than a commander-in-chief." Are you working as a lackey for others, or are you trying to make a fool of yourself for the Great Chao Kingdom? "

On the left of Jiang Zhanying is Lieutenant General Lu, and on the right is A Zuo. A You was seriously injured by Qin Hengyi in the battle at Canyon Ridge. Lieutenant General Lu is now It seemed that he was acting as Jiang Zhanying's left hand. As such, he was just a lieutenant.

Lu Zhenghe's face turned red: "You..."

"Because of you, you beast, our Qin family's army lost more than two thousand people." That day Qin Hengyi arrived at the Canyon Mausoleum. There were corpses in the Canyon Mausoleum, and the smoke rose straight into the sky. The soldiers died tragically. , his father was also seriously injured and unconscious. Everything was thanks to Lu Zhenghe. Qin Hengyi gritted his back molars, as if possessed by a villain, sinisterly, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth. He asked Lieutenant General Lu, Have the Lu family received it?

Lieutenant General Lu's eyes suddenly widened.

Qin Hengyi chuckled twice. He is not yet forty now, only in his thirties. Men at this age are the most mature and attractive. Now he is dressed in armor, with an impeccable figure and facial features. In the past, his eyes were all full of charm. It is a romantic smile, and his face is always filled with a smile. He always seems to be carefree and has no worries. It is as bright as the sun in the sky, but now his face is full of indifference and alienation, and his eyes are full of hatred. They were two completely different people twenty years ago. Zuo looked a little dazed for a moment, with mixed feelings in his heart. When Qin Hengyi's cold gaze glanced over at him, he lowered his eyes in panic, as if he was afraid of looking at Qin Hengyi.

He heard Qin Hengyi sneer: "Your Majesty has decreed that the Lu family will kill all nine clans. Don't worry, none of them can escape."

Since ancient times, everyone has been prosperous, and everyone has suffered losses.

When Lieutenant Lu was in charge of the country, Daxia gave the Lu family great wealth and glory. It was impossible for the Lu family not to know about Lieutenant General Lu's treason, and now they deserved it.

Jiang Zhanying laughed: "Old Lu, let me just say it! Those ungrateful people like the Qin family are not worthy of your service. People choose good friends and birds choose good trees to live in. Now you have abandoned the dark and turned to the light."

Qin Hengyi Looking at him, he suddenly sneered: "Dogs speak human language." He said coldly: "Today is an eye-opener for me."

The Lu family had not arrived at Qinzhou for a long time, and Lieutenant General Lu knew that the Lu family was afraid that Something happened. Now that Qin Hengyi said this, Lu Zhenghe's eyes turned red and he took the lead in riding towards Qin Hengyi.

"Second Young Master, I, the daughter of the Lu family, are so innocent. I have fought for the Qin family for decades in Great Xia. Now that the Qin family has no regard for the friendship between the two families and morality, then you will be blamed on me."

Qin Hengyi said nothing and went up to him. .

He has no lieutenant, and he is followed by private soldiers of the Qin family on both sides. Now Jiang Zhanying leads his men to fight with him. As long as Qin Hengyi is captured again, the Qin family's army will have nothing to fear. Jiang Zhanying has enough energy to fight. It's hard to argue with him, but he underestimated Qin Hengyi's ability. He started practicing martial arts with the old general Qin at the age of three and passed on his mantle. It was not easy to capture him in a short time.

Jiang Zhanying glanced at Zuo: "Zuo."

He ordered coldly, "Get him."

Zuo's eyes flashed slightly, but he did not resist.

Qin Hengyi used all killing moves, specializing in his life gate. It was obvious that he was merciless at all.

When a spear was stabbed towards him, Zuo was startled when he met Qin Hengyi's cold and distant eyes.

He wanted his own life.

It was the same last time, and it was the same this time...

Realizing this, Zuo's face turned pale, and his whole chest suddenly felt like being pricked by needles. His eyes were full of sadness, and his eye sockets turned red.

Qin Hengyi didn't look at him, not because he didn't want to, but because he didn't dare.

This person gave him a sense of familiarity all over his body. At that time, he really thought that the other person was his Yizhi, but when he woke up later, he felt that it was impossible.

What was in that box was really a human skin, and there was no way he and his parents would admit it.

This man is Jiang Zhanpeng's son-in-law, that's all.

Qin Hengyi was not a vegetarian, and he was also a ruthless person when he started to fight. Jiang Zhanying gritted his teeth when he saw that he was more difficult to deal with than that old beast.

This little beast, sooner or later, but this time is the best, it's really fucking unlucky, why don't you just fool him for a few more years?

When the Qin family army saw Lu Zhenghe, they really wanted to skin him and beat him as hard as chicken blood.

However, the enemy was outnumbered and we were outnumbered. In the end, the Qin army was forced to retreat in this battle. The news spread back to the rear. After thinking about it, General Qin decided to stay for a few more days and then go back. With him here, Qin Hengyi would at least not be so strenuous.

...

All exits in Shangyang and Xiayang have been blocked, and strict investigation has been launched.

In a dilapidated temple outside Xiayang Mountain, the Lu family sat around the fire like bereaved dogs, all of them looking sad and miserable.

Several Dachao troops responsible for the response were guarding outside the temple gate.

The eldest grandson of the Lu family, who is eight years old this year, was stirring the fire with a wooden stick and asked resentfully: "Grandma, dad and grandpa, why did they rebel?"

When the others heard this, they immediately looked at Mrs. Lu.

yes! Why did the good guy rebel? As a result, they are now like lost dogs or rats crossing the street, hiding everywhere. There are officers and soldiers outside looking for them, and now they dare not go out from here.

Running around and sleeping in the open, the female relatives could not bear it, especially the Lu family's youngest daughter-in-law, whose child was lost on the way to escape and is still lying unconscious.

Mrs. Lu's face looked sad.

"It's not sudden that your father complained about the Qin family."

It had been planned for a long time, and the Lu family was in disbelief. The Qin family has treated them well over the years, why should they complain?

Mrs. Lu sighed: "Twenty years ago..."

Dachao suddenly launched an attack on Daxia and easily broke through the defense line and came in because the boss of the Lu family neglected his duty.

He led the troops to guard the defense line, but it had been peaceful for several years. In addition, after the two countries signed a contract, Lu Wu was slacking off at that time. Life on the border was inevitably boring, so he often sent people to the town. Buy wine, and then take your subordinates to have fun in the camp.

The soldiers often got drunk. On the Double Ninth Festival, Lu Wu was still drunk. Unexpectedly, that night, the imperial court suddenly attacked with an army. Lu Wu was caught off guard, and in the end he was unable to hold on. By the time Old General Qin got the news, Dachao had already massacred more than a dozen villages.

When the Dachao army was driven out again, General Qin began to accuse Lu Wu of neglecting his duties. Originally, it would not have been an exaggeration to simply behead him, but for Lieutenant General Lu's sake, General Qin had him beaten dozens of times. Lu Wu was beaten almost to death. How could Vice General Lu watch his son being beaten to death! Then he knelt down and kowtowed to General Qin, begging him to let Lu Wu go for once.

Lu Zhenghe went through life and death many times for Daxia. Finally, General Qin kicked Lu Wu, demoted him, and stopped pursuing him. At the same time, a decree came from the capital to make Qin Hengxuan a first-grade marquis.

But Qin Hengyi was named a general.

At that time, Qin Hengxuan was less than twenty years old, and the second oldest child in the Qin family was less than fifteen years old.

He is really young and promising, and everyone praises him outside.

Lu Wu began to feel unwilling.

The Lu family is conscientious in their work, and their achievements are no less than those of the Qin family. But how come the Qin family can aspire to such a high position, while the Lu family has to fall at the feet of the Qin family?

Outsiders only know the Qin Family Army and Old General Qin. Who knows the Lu Family?

Qin Hengxuan is a waste, why can he be a first-grade marquis? How many achievements has Qin Hengyi made at such a young age? Why can he climb directly on his father's head?

How many contributions has the Lu family made on the battlefield?

His father fought countless bloody battles with Old General Qin. Could it be that Old General Qin was the only one who contributed to the stability of Daxia?

The emperor is also biased. Since he does not value the Lu family and does not take the Lu family into consideration, then the Lu family will find their own way out.

Later, Lu Wu persuaded Vice General Lu and secretly defected to Daxia.

Mrs. Lu certainly understands this matter.

The Lu family fell silent after hearing this.

"Uncle is not convinced. He can just go and join the imperial court. Why does he have to implicate our second wife?" The daughter-in-law cried and said: "He neglected his duty and caused disaster to more than a dozen villages below him. Even if he was beheaded, it would be a disaster." It's not an exaggeration, what does he have to complain about?"

Mrs. Lu slapped him, her chest heaving with anger: "Shut up, he is your eldest brother, how can you say such things about the Lu family? It's not your turn to interrupt."

"What's wrong with what I said?" After days of wandering around and sleeping in the open, the Lu family couldn't bear it any longer: "What do people say about our Lu family now? My family is a rebellious minister, and it is not a pity to die. The emperor wants to punish us, the nine Lu family members. Do you know that my parents have been arrested? What mistakes did they make? They are all because of your good son. Do you think we can escape? Get out? Once we are caught, we will be finished. We can't escape."

She was talking and laughing like crazy. Everyone knew about this, but no one said it openly. Now I heard it. It's inexplicably disturbing.

"Mother, what should we do? Let's go back and beg General Qin."

"Yes, mother, the children are still young. Now there are strict checks outside and all intersections are blocked. We can't get out at all, mother. , you can think of a way! Or... or ask dad to come back and confess, I don't want to live like this anymore, please, mother, think of a way."

"Grandma, I'm scared, I'm hungry. I want to go home, wuwuwu."

Mrs. Lu was about to tell them to shut up, but suddenly there was a commotion outside, and a large army of soldiers rushed in: "Officers and soldiers are coming, let's hurry... "

The door was kicked open with a bang, and countless officials rushed in.

"Don't move. Anyone who resists will be killed."

Mrs. Lu's mind went blank and she thought, it's over. Her second daughter-in-law believes in Buddhism and goes to the temple to worship incense all year round. She must have had her mouth opened.

Several imperial soldiers were cut down by the officers and soldiers as if they were chopping melons and vegetables. Seeing the Lu family being pressed down and tied up by the officers, Mrs. Lu's eyes darkened and she fainted.

Lu Zhenghe had thought well at the time. Even if he failed to keep General Qin in Canyon Ridge, he could still delay it for a day or two. Moreover, the Qin family were all on the border. When news of his rebellion came back, Qin The family wanted to control the Lu family, so they waited for the Qin family to send troops to Hengyang, which took them seven or eight days, which was enough time for the family to escape.

As long as you arrive at Qinzhou, go to Daliang. Daliang and Dachao have an alliance. Lieutenant General Lu has already sent a letter to Daliang. They will naturally settle their families properly, but unfortunately, the Lu family has just left, and Qin After receiving the letter, the old lady immediately deployed. Knowing that Lieutenant General Lu had rebelled, a wanted order was immediately issued. As long as they were still in Daxia's territory, where could the Lu family hide?

The Lu family was taken to prison. Mrs. Lu begged the official, saying that she wanted to see Mrs. Qin, and her grandchildren were all innocent!

She now places all her hopes on Mrs. Qin.

The Qin family is the most kind...

Mrs. Qin heard the official report and said she would not see her. It was not because she was cruel. She understood why Mrs. Lu came to her, but could she intervene?

If the king wants his minister to die, he must die.

The emperor has issued an edict, what is the use of begging?

Since you dare to rebel, you should expect that sooner or later there will be such a result.

When the official came back and said that Mrs. Qin was missing, Mrs. Lu sat slumped on the ground and cried helplessly. Others followed, saying in panic that they did not want to die and were afraid.

There was a cry in the prison.

The Lu family were all beheaded.

When the news reached Lieutenant General Lu's ears, Lu Zhenghe went crazy and launched another attack. Countless wounded people were transported back.

These are all seriously injured, and those with minor injuries are simply treated and recuperated for two days before going to the battlefield.

The seriously injured cannot stay at the front. Firstly, it is not far from the border and can be easily transported back. Secondly, they need an absolutely safe and stable place to recuperate. If they stay at the front, it will be inconvenient for the brigade to march or retreat with them. .

On the day the wounded soldiers were transported back, Gungundan was playing in the military camp. It was a small slope with a drainage ditch below. Two children were squatting by the ditch making glutinous rice balls. Their little hands were dirty and they couldn't play. Very happy.

The wounded soldiers were carried over the slope. One man had half of his leg cut off, and the skin was attached to it. When passing by the slope, the skin finally failed to connect, and a small section of the leg fell off the simple wooden stretcher with a pop. It came down and rolled to Gungundan's feet. It was bloody. The two little guys were so scared that they took off their pants on the spot. But they were scared but did not run away. Gungun picked it up, climbed up and amputated the leg while crying. Passed it over: "Uncle, woo woo, you've lost your legs, woo woo."

After coming back, Gungundan was a little depressed. They missed Brother Zhao when they were scared, and they hadn't seen Fang Zichen and Brother Zhao for a long time. However, with Meng Ruqing here, the two of them didn't miss Fang Zichen that much, but they missed Brother Zhao very much, and they were not very happy.

Mrs. Qin knew that the two little guys were frightened and needed condolences, so she asked the kitchen to make some pastries, which were fragrant and sweet.

Before living in the village, Fang Zichen often spent huge sums of money to buy cakes for them in the town when he was generous, but the food in the small shop was rough and the variety was limited. Although he didn't pick anything, he still wanted to when he was hungry. I rushed to the hut, but I also knew the good news. This pastry was more delicious than what my father had bought before.

After eating a piece of Dandan, Mrs. Qin asked him if he still missed his father? Dandan sniffed and said, "I want it."

After eating the second piece, Mrs. Qin asked again. He said he had a little thought and when he was full, he said he didn't want to think about it today and would think about it when he was free tomorrow. , no longer afraid, started playing and playing.

Mrs. Qin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After finishing the cake, the good boy crawled to the bedside, lay on Old General Qin's lap, and asked him: "Grandpa, are you going to fight on the front line?"

General Qin patted his little butt: "Yes! How about you wait until grandpa finishes beating the bad guys and then come back to play with the good boy." The

good boy looked at his chest, which was still wrapped with a bandage: "But grandpa, are your injuries healed? ?"

"It doesn't matter. "It's not all right. If he really wants to go on the field now, he will have to go down to reunite with his ancestors in just two rounds, but he can still command. Yes, it's not the mouth that was poked.

Gungun Dandan came over and said, "Guoguo, is it Simo who is fighting?"

"It's just fighting." Guaizi said.

"Oh." Gungun said, "It turned out to be a fight, but my father said it! If you don't fight well, you'll be hospitalized if you lose, and if you win, you'll be jailed. Grandpa, you Seamus, an old bird like you, still don't know sense! You are an old man. Bird, if you want to fight with someone, I'm afraid you'll have to go straight to the table if someone punches you. This is not good, it's very bad." He said with a serious face: "Grandpa, you can't fight, otherwise you will be like this. Go to a labor camp for the elderly."

"No." Guaizi poked him in the face: "

Is that so?" Gungun nodded and understood, "Grandpa, you can't. If you can't beat me, just call my father."

Before Old General Qin could say anything, Dandan frowned and said firmly, "You can't beat me. If you can't beat me, why is grandpa still lying on the bed? Ah!"

Old General Qin: "..."

This seems to make sense, but he is speechless.

Mrs. Qin and Uncle Tang were watching the three children talking to each other and making Old General Qin look stupid, and they couldn't help but find it funny.

"Guo Guo, let's go write a letter to father and ask him to come over and beat the bad guys and make them scream."

General Qin saw that Dan Dan was about to get out of bed, so he grabbed him and tried his best to save face: "Your great grandfather is also very powerful. , I'm afraid your father is not as powerful as Grandpa."

The good boy chuckled after hearing this, as if an old hen was about to lay eggs: "Grandpa, you know how to brag. My father is the most powerful in the world, if that old man Lu was the one back then. Fighting with my father, he is probably on the mountain now, but Grandpa, you are almost lying on the bed."

Old General Qin: "...That's because he attacked me."

Good boy: "Grandpa, look for me . That's a bad excuse!"

Old General Qin: "..."

Qin Hengxuan and Meng Ruqing were handling official business. The boy ran in panting, and scurried under Meng Ruqing's desk like a mouse in a hole.

Meng Ruqing quickly put down the pen and bent down: "What's wrong?"

"Shh." Guaizi said nervously: "Uncle beauty, don't talk, grandpa wants to beat Guaizi."

Meng Ruqing: "..."

No need to ask, This kid must have lost his temper again. In the past few days, he often provoked General Qin and was chased all over the military camp. Sure enough, after a while, General Qin was helped over by Qin Yi holding a small piece of wood. He looked around and saw no one in the camp: "Then Where's the brat?"

Meng Ruqing and Qin Hengxuan shook their heads: "I don't know, dad, you're not well yet, don't be angry."

"It's all your fault," said General Qin bitterly.

Qin Hengxuan went to help him and asked with a smile: "What's wrong with him?"

General Qin: "What's wrong?"

What could be wrong...

"Grandpa, it's not good to make excuses!"

"This is not an excuse, this is a fact."

"But my father is not afraid of sneak attacks, because my father has eyes in the back."

"Ah! How come your father has eyes in the back?"

"Butt eyes! Grandpa, why do you ask that? Do you have no butts? /Eye?"

When Qin Hengxuan heard this, he burst into laughter, and even Meng Ruqing couldn't hold it back.

Old General Qin had a sullen face: "Still laughing, if you two see that bastard, take him to my camp. This kid runs really fast and disappears in the blink of an eye."

Wait for the person to leave, be good. He stuck half of his head out from under the table and asked in a low voice: "Uncle Beauty, is grandpa gone?"

Meng Ruqing picked him up and helped him dust off his clothes: "Gone."

"Grandpa is angry." Zai made a sad face and said seriously: "I guess the secret that has been hidden for many years was revealed by Guai Zai, so grandpa became angry because of shame. Yes, that must be the case."

Meng Ruqing laughed again.

Old General Qin's gloomy voice suddenly rang out: "I knew you were here."

Guaizi: "..."

Guaizi didn't expect that Old General Qin would come back and see Old General Qin coming back. He walked towards General Qin with his buttocks a little tight: "Grandpa, who are you looking for?"

General Qin looked at him coldly and pretended to be: "I'm looking for a good boy, a bastard."

"It turned out that I was looking for a good boy . Boy! I saw him running that way just now." The little boy moved his little feet quietly towards the door: "Grandpa, don't look at me like that. You got the wrong person. I just look a bit like him. He's just a little boy, not a good boy!"

Qin Hengxuan couldn't help but laugh while holding his stomach.

General Qin grabbed him by the collar and picked him up like a chicken: "I believe you are evil."

The good boy was punished.

He felt very innocent. He didn't do anything bad. He just said a few words and didn't curse. Why was he beaten?

Alas, I really don't understand.

But it doesn't matter, it doesn't hurt at all after being hit.

General Qin took off his pants and laid him across his knees. The good boy's butt was spanked loudly, but he was indifferent. He felt that the more he spanked his butt, the more itchy he felt, and he stretched out his hand to scratch it. Qin The old general suddenly laughed.

General Qin dotes on him because he likes him no matter how he looks at him, but this kid is so irritating when he opens his mouth that he can't help but want to hit him no matter how much he dotes on him.

After the good boy was cleaned up, he wrote to Fang Zichen and Brother Zhao again, saying that it would take some time for him to go back. Grandpa was seriously injured by an old man named Lu. Grandpa's injury has not healed yet. He I have to protect grandpa and avenge him by the way. Grandpa is no match for Old Man Lu. For this purpose, he is the only one who can take part in the game in person, and I am afraid that only he can beat Old Man Lu now. Father, daddy, I miss you, dear boy. Father and dad also want to be a good boy! My brother is fine. He eats well and sleeps soundly. Don't worry. The good boy is going to fight bad guys and become a hero. Father, can you send some of your underwear to the good boy? If the boy wants to wear it, Superman will be invincible.

The Imperial Guards obeyed Fang Zichen's orders, and their first task was to protect the three young masters. Naturally, they would not leave, so the Qin family army had to make a trip to get this letter.

The good boy carefully handed the letter to him: "You have to hand it to my father personally. Do you know my father?"

Before the soldier could say anything, the good boy said again: "My father looks like the beautiful uncle. He is the second most handsome man in the world. He is very easy to recognize. If you can't see my father, you can give it to my father. My father has two big eyes. Don't give it to the wrong person."

Xiao Bing promised: "Don't worry, young master. It's wrong . It can't be wrong."

Guaizi was relieved: "Uncle, Guaizi believes in you."

After the soldier left, Qin Hengxuan poked his butt and joked: "Your father is the second most handsome man in the world. Who is the most handsome?"

"You still need to ask?" The boy looked at him in disbelief: "Can't you see it, handsome grandpa? It's so obvious, it's so far away and right in front of you!"

"Could it be me?" Qin Hengxuan laughed, thinking that this The boy is really discerning, which makes him feel a little embarrassed, after all, he is quite old.

His smile was a little rippled, and Guaizi looked at him in disbelief: "How could it be you? It's Guaizi."

Now it was Qin Hengxuan's turn to be in disbelief: "... You??"

"Yes. "In the past, everyone called me a handsome boy. Grandpa, if you are like this, everyone can only call you a fool. How can you be the most handsome man in the world? Handsome grandpa, people must be self-aware."

Qin Hengxuan choked: "Diaofei. " What is Mao?" He vaguely felt that this was not a good thing.

The good boy scratched his head: "I don't know! Does it mean ugly?"

Qin Hengxuan patted him: "Then you mean I'm ugly? When I went out with your beautiful uncle, everyone said that Langcai is handsome. , a match made in heaven."

The good boy covered his mouth and laughed: "Then he is probably blind. The beautiful uncle looks good, and the handsome grandpa looks funny."

Meng Ruqing was drinking tea and almost spit out the words . , laughed directly.

Chapter 419

The soldiers were busy outside. A black shadow flashed past him, as fast as the wind. Qin Hengxuan was chasing after him holding a large wooden board. He didn't know where it was removed from.

"Little bastard, stop for me, stop for me."

The good boy didn't stop: "Hit the child, hit the child. Someone is not a human being. Help! Someone come and save the good boy."

All the soldiers: "... "..."

Many soldiers in the military region can see the good boy being chased almost every two days. It is either General Qin or Qin Hengxuan. It is not normal if he is not chased several times a day. Recently in the military region, Everyone is used to it.

Qin Hengxuan was chasing after him, and he was about to hit Guaizi with a stick on his butt, but Guaibuliuqiu suddenly dodged left and right, and he couldn't hit him no matter how hard he hit him.

The soldiers all watched happily and found it very interesting. In normal battles, even if they were guarding the rear, everyone would be tense. But now that the good boy is here, watching him jump up and down every day, they feel inexplicably relaxed.

Qin Hengxuan didn't feel relieved at all.

This idiot bastard actually said he looked funny.

When General Qin heard the commotion outside, he knew that the good boy needed to be dealt with again.

Mrs. Qin went to the door and took a look, shook her head and said with a helpless smile: "Two years ago, my mother-in-law wrote a letter saying that he was often beaten by Brother Zhao. I was still thinking whether Brother Zhao was too harsh. Now it seems, I really don't blame Brother Zhao."

"My father-in-law said that he and Mr. Fang have exactly the same moral character. They are working together everywhere in the capital." Old General Qin said: "This guy is diligent, sensible, and smart. What can he learn? He knows it at first glance and is willing to do any job. Didn't he run to the back to help the cook wash the vegetables? When I came back, I saw that his little hands were red from the cold. Except for this mouth, everything really suits my liking. "

The good boy has no time for leisure. He is used to doing work. After finishing his homework every day, he will play with Gungundan for a while and then start to go outside to find work. He is either going to the back to help watch the fire and wash vegetables, or to help in the wounded barracks. .

He can do many jobs. He saw Aunt Tang and the others doing it before during disaster relief. He is still good at copying cats and tigers. Lao Jiang was still afraid that he would make trouble, but he also knew that this young master was very capable. The previous masters pampered him very much. Lao Jiang didn't dare to offend him, he just treated him as a person for fun. As long as it wasn't too much, it wouldn't be a big deal. But later on, Lao Jiang didn't feel that way. This guy seemed to be very experienced and had a good way of dealing with injured people. He knew how to endure hardships. He knows how to give medicine and food to people, and also helps people wash their faces and feet. When doing these things, he doesn't dislike it at all. He helps their boss. Although he is a small person, he can do a lot of work. Erlai is really unambiguous.

I heard that the good-looking young master had one chicken and three bowls of rice for a meal. He really didn't eat for free. People eat more and work more.

When Aunt Zhong came to see him, she saw him wiping the body of a wounded soldier. Aunt Zhong pulled him out and said that he was a young master and could not do such work.

The good boy didn't listen to her: "Why not? Uncle is injured and can't move. There are not enough manpower here, so the good boy can do whatever he can."

"But..."

"Uncle is a great hero, I will give it to him Don't be shy about wiping your body. If you can't move anymore, grandma, I'll wipe your body too, dear boy. "Don't worry," he said. "You'll have a share in it when you can't move anymore. I'll take care of myself."

Grandma Zhong didn't know what to say on the spot.

When General Qin found out, he was very pleased and asked Aunt Zhong to go with him.

What a great little grandson he is, he has a good foundation.

At this moment, Mrs. Qin glanced at him sideways: "But I have never seen you really angry."

General Qin smiled and said: "I love him to death for his little appearance. How could he be really angry?" I'm getting angry. "

When I came to Shangyang, there were a lot of goods and the carriages were slow. It took me a month to reach Shangyang. Now it's faster to go back. But halfway through, Fang Zichen received a letter from Guaizi. He simply said in the letter He explained the situation on the border, and then asked Fang Zichen if he could send Aunt Tang and others to Hengyang.

Fang Zichen thought about it for a while, and first asked the imperial guards to quickly go to Jizhou. News soon came, saying that there was no movement in Da Liang, Beiqi and other countries.

Fang Zichen breathed a sigh of relief.

If they don't move now, Great Liang and Beiqi will probably not launch an attack in such a short period of time - General Qin was seriously injured, and they still have some concerns. Now they are awake, and the Qin family's army has not all been defeated by the Great Chao Kingdom. If he is restrained, he will not even dare to act recklessly.

In this way, Fang Zichen wrote the document, stamped it, and asked the imperial guards to take it to Qianzhou, and asked him to mobilize troops to the southern border. He sent the three rice buckets to the Qin family. In fact, he was quite embarrassed. Besides, , Erzai wrote a letter in person, and if he didn't send it, wouldn't it be a slap in his Erzai's face?

"There are two more letters!" Fang Zichen opened one of them. This one was thicker and had Qin Hengyi's name written on the outside. When he took it out and looked at it, Fang Zichen was frightened on the spot.

His hand trembled: "Oh my god." He quickly stuffed the banknote back.

A whole stack of notes, two fingers thick.

Fang Zichen's heart was pounding like fireworks, his blood was boiling all over his body and his face was red. If it hadn't been for his extraordinary will, he would have passed out right now.

"What's wrong?" Brother Zhao looked frightened when he saw something was wrong with him. He took the letter from his hand and when he saw it, his eyes widened.

"This..."

Fang Zichen swallowed his saliva, his eyes were like wolves and tigers, and seemed to be shining as he stared at the envelope closely: "There are banknotes in this!"

"Yes!"

"What is this? What do you mean? Poverty alleviation?" Fang Zichen scratched his head and couldn't understand: "Did he make a mistake when he sent the letter

?

Even if he was blind, there was no way he could have mistaken the banknote and the letter.

Brother Zhao said: "I don't know either. There is another letter here, written by Lord Qin. Let me read it first."

Fang Zichen took advantage of Brother Zhao to read the letter and secretly took out two banknotes from the envelope. Stuff it into your clothes.

In such a thick pile, if one or two pieces are missing, you probably won't notice. The other party is probably a big fool and made a mistake.

Meng Ruqing's letter mostly contained some greetings, asking him to pay more attention to his health like an elder. If he had any needs or difficulties, he wrote to him and told him not to be polite. He also said that the three children were there to reassure him. The old man liked the children very much when he saw them. Incredibly, he was in a good mood and had recovered a lot from his injuries. He wanted the child to stay there for a few more days to accompany the old man. Finally, he told the couple to pay more attention to their health, and asked them to take the banknote as pocket money. You're welcome. Once it's used up, they'll send it back.

How arrogant!

When I heard that it was for them, I was right. Fang Zichen looked absolutely beautiful. He couldn't stop laughing.

"This Qin family is so kind-hearted. If you die in the future, you will definitely go to heaven. It would be nice to meet eight or nine more of such a big boss."

Knowing that there has not been a fight in Jizhou, Fang Zichen is not in a hurry to leave. Now, I'm stuck with Brother Zhao every day, playing with me, or teasing Liu Liu. If I didn't miss Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu, Liu Liu would still want to go with Guai Zai! But after all, he was homesick and came back with Brother Zhou.

When I left, the cargo was loaded several meters high, but when I came back, I saw only one cart, which was empty. As soon as it entered the border of Qianzhou, the common people saw it and immediately ran to tell each other.

The adults are back, the adults are back.

How long has Master Fang been out for? So many cars and goods have been sold out.

...

The weather is good today. Old Wangtou is digging the last batch of sweet potatoes in the sweet potato field. There are not many sweet potatoes. Today, the eldest daughter-in-law wants to come with him, but he doesn't let him. In previous years, the sweet potatoes in the field have been dug out long ago. However, this year the eldest son of the family went out with the adults, and the second son and the youngest son worked in the sweet potato factory again. He and his two daughters-in-law were the only ones doing the work in the fields, so it was naturally slower.

The same is true for every household, but no one complains, it's later, it doesn't matter, there hasn't been frost yet, and the sweet potatoes won't spoil if they are buried in the ground. God has mercy on their people this year, and the frost doesn't fall so fast, so No need to rush.

Otherwise, if there is frost, the sweet potatoes in the field may go bad.

This year, the sweet potatoes grew big and the soil was wet. The sweet potatoes dug deep into the ground and it took more effort to dig them out than before. In this cold weather, Lao Wang was sweating.

Tired.

But his face was filled with joy and relaxation.

We are a bit tired, but we have hope for the day, so we don't feel tired anymore. On the contrary, we can't exert all our energy. It's nothing like before, when we were exhausted and worked hard, but we couldn't even eat enough. Living was just suffering and tiredness. , only when you die can you be considered happy.

Things are different now, life is getting better!

While he was busy at this moment, Brother Shi ran over from the distant field ridge humming, shouting as he ran.

"Grandpa, grandpa."

"Hey, why are you here?" Lao Wangtou saw that he was sweating and still holding a piece of candy in his hand. He didn't pay much attention, thinking that his daughter-in-law bought it for him. He waited for him to think about it when he arrived. Wiping his sweat, my hands were covered with mud when I raised them, so I had to lift up the corner of my clothes to wipe him: "Why are you running so fast? What if you fall?"

"Grandma asked you to come back," Brother Shi said, " " Dad is back."

"What?" Lao Wangtou said, "Is it true that your dad is back?"

Brother Shi held up the candy and said, "Daddy bought this candy." "

Wang Da brought it back from Shangyang. It's good stuff. It's sweet and not bitter at all. It's just a bit expensive. But Brother Zhao pays them a lot of wages and it's hard to come out." , Wang Da gritted his teeth and bought some, including candy, headbands, and brightly colored materials.

The family members were all dazzled.

After hearing this, Lao Wangtou's face immediately became sad and unhappy. Several women working nearby heard this and gathered around.

Everyone's faces were full of anxiety: "Village chief, are the goods not selling well?"

No wonder everyone would ask this.

Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu live in the village and like to chat with everyone in their free time. Last time the village chief asked Mr. Liu Shufang how much goods he was bringing out this time.

There is nothing that cannot be said. Uncle Liu said: "There should be about ten trucks. Our sweet potato factory heard from Brother Zhou that six trucks were loaded, and Pingxiang Village also loaded six trucks."

Everyone breathed when they heard this. difficulty.

There are about ten cars, how long will it take to sell them?

Then, on the day when the sweet potato factory shipped the goods, everyone went to see it. Because the sweet potato flour was not very heavy and was piled high, there were six full trucks. It took less than a month or two, and I was afraid that it would not be sold out, not to mention there were other goods.

Now I have just returned after being away for more than three months - everyone subconsciously felt that they might not be able to sell it, so they came back early.

Lao Wangtou picked up the basket and said, "I'll go back and take a look first."

"Village chief, we'll go with you." Everyone was worried! Where can I find the time to dig sweet potatoes?

Lao Wang was still walking quickly with a hundred pounds of sweet potatoes on his head. As soon as he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he heard the bustle in the house.

"The materials outside are really beautiful. What kind of flowers are embroidered on them?"

"I heard that they are peonies."

"Peonies? What kind of flowers are they? I've never heard of them, but they are so beautiful."

Looking at Wang Da's face, the old man said Wang Tou breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Da went over to help unload the sweet potatoes: "Dad."

Old Wangtou asked eagerly: "I'm back. How come it's so fast? Are all the adults' goods sold out?"

Wang Da said with a smile: "All are sold out."

"Sixteen carts of goods . Are they all sold out?" Old Wangtou said, "The six carts of paper are also sold out?" Wang

Da: "Well..."

A woman said, "Why are they sold out so fast?"

Just said it.

Can it be faster?

The instant noodle guy buys a few packs or dozens of packs, and the sweet potato starch also buys a dozen kilograms. Can you hurry up? Several carts of instant noodles were sold on the first day, and what happened later was even more impressive. People immediately started grabbing them.

Needless to say about the paper, several academies were bought half a truckload, and people outside were generous with their money, how could they be like them! Although sweet potato flour is delicious, who buys more than ten kilograms at a time? They were all so greedy that they couldn't hold it back anymore, so they only went to buy some for a few days. Not everyone could have a bowl, just a whole plate, and eat it like a dish. After all, a pound of it costs thirty cents!

They themselves are like this. No matter how rich outsiders are, they can't buy it every day! Everyone felt that it would take several months to sell out six carts of sweet potato flour.

When they heard this, everyone opened their mouths: "Are they all rushing to buy it?"

"But no, those who come later can't buy it, and they will start fighting!" Wang Da said.

"My dear, it's thirty cents per catty, but they don't feel bad if you buy ten catties at once!"

"Wrong, wrong." Wang Da said, "It's not thirty cents per catty."

"How much is that? Twenty cents? "It makes sense if it sells so fast.

Just as the woman was thinking this, Wang Da said, "Twenty cents? Where's twenty cents? It's sixty-eight cents."

The whole courtyard of the Wang family immediately fell silent.

After a while, Lao Wang said with a trembling voice: "Six, sixty-eight yuan? Then, can it be sold?" As soon as the words came out, he realized what his boss had just said, people Rushing to buy it! Still can't sell it?

But sixty-eight yuan per pound!

He didn't even dare to think or daydream about it. Previously, Manager Zhou sold them 30 cents per catty. Old Wangtou knew that this was probably the lowest price. It should be more expensive to buy it from outside, but Old Wangtou I felt that it only cost about forty yuan. Although it was delicious, if it was more expensive, it might not be worth buying. As a result, their adults sold it for sixty-eight yuan per pound, which was not enough to sell.

Wang Da knew what they were thinking, and immediately said: "Shangyang is different from ours. It is really rich over there. The people on the street are all wearing brocade clothes. They are well-dressed and rich. They are much better than our town." I didn't dare to look at those gentlemen who were there, and I heard that just a plate of green vegetables could be sold for 300 cents in the inn. "

Some people can't breathe, they feel like it's a fantasy, it's incredible: "It's true!"

"Auntie, why did I lie to you?" Wang Da said, "Your Excellency, you brought toilet paper with you this time. This toilet paper is for the toilet." He gestured: "It's so high. Sir, a stack of it sells for ninety cents. "

Can this be sold in Quzhou?

It's unclear what will happen in the future, but it will definitely not be sold. Ninety coins is not a small amount, and you can only make more than a dozen coins by selling Tiancai. There are too many wooden sticks on the mountain, and even if there are no wooden sticks, the leaves, There's always corn cobs! Even if it's bad, don't you still have fingers? Who is really willing to spend money to buy such a thing?

People outside are really willing to give up.

Seeing the cloth in the hands of the eldest daughter-in-law of the Wang family, the women couldn't move their eyes away.

"Is this brought back from outside?"

"Yeah!"

"Oh, it's really beautiful. I've never seen anything like this. The color is so bright. How much is it?"

"Five hundred coins."

" ······"

Why does this boy from the Wang family always talk so scary when he comes back?

Everyone sat at Lao Wangtou's house all afternoon. The villagers knew that he was back and came to inquire about the news. They listened to Wang Da talk about what was going on outside, and couldn't help but yearn for him.

I also envy Wang Dalai, why?

Because Lao Wangtou's family had entertained Mr. Fang, and the Wang family actively cooperated with Mr. Fang when digging the river channel. It was Mr. Fang's wish that Wang Dan could be a small steward in the factory.

Wang Da had gone out to see the world, and Zhang had seen a lot of things. He probably had a lot of money, otherwise how could he have brought back so many things, including food, clothing, and supplies, some of which they had never seen before.

It would be great if the sweet potato flour could be sold. Everyone was happy and listened for a long time before getting up and going back in the evening.

Lying in bed at night, thinking about what Brother Zhao said back then, I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

About twenty kilograms of sweet potatoes can be used to make one kilogram of sweet potato flour. They charge one penny for two kilograms of sweet potatoes. That is, they sell twenty kilograms of sweet potatoes for ten pence, while adults sell them for more than sixty pence.

The people in the village are illiterate, but they are not stupid either. The poorer they live, the more they plan their lives carefully. If you deduct ten coins from sixty-eight coins, you will make fifty-eight coins.

If it had been anyone else, he would have definitely scolded him as a black-hearted person at this moment, but the other person was an adult, so he couldn't curse him out loud, but he didn't feel good in his heart either.

Seeing the mother-in-law at home turning over and over, the man asked, and the mother-in-law answered. The man

said: "You are just jealous and think that the Lord is a bit of a jerk."

"No."

"Why not? If the Lord doesn't bring us water, I ask you, will you scold him now?"

After thinking for a while, he nodded honestly. "You just have long hair and short knowledge. You can earn so much because of your ability. And the factory was built for free? The workers in the factory don't need to be paid? Ship it outside. You didn't listen to Wang Da this afternoon. If not, Sir, you have to pay money to enter the city, and you have to take care of food and drink on the way. What does it cost you money for?"

"Even you are jealous, and the people outside are probably even more so. You only see people making money. You don't see the skills and hard work here? Sir, you are kind to us. Otherwise, how could you make so much from farming?"

The man said, "You used to talk nonsense, but I didn't say anything to you, but you should know." You can say what you can't say! If others are to listen, our son is still working in the factory. "

When the paper mill was first built, my wife made some gossip about Brother Zhao. He opened the door to his two sons. Everyone knows this.

But no one thought it was inappropriate. Mr. Fang did some work for her two children, but she was ungrateful and gossiped behind her back. It was Mr. Fang who was kind-hearted.

After his analysis, although he didn't know how much he spent on the journey, he probably stayed in an inn and ate a lot, so the woman suddenly didn't dare to be jealous.

"I know."

That's how people are, jealous and jealous. But there is someone who can see clearly.

Just thought about it! As a result, the next day, the sweet potato factory issued a notice saying that sweet potatoes cost three kilograms and two cents.

Why did you raise the price?

That's because sweet potato flour sells so well that it's impossible for adults to eat meat themselves, so you just wash the dishes! No matter what, I will make you drink soup.

Oh my mother!

Mr. Fang is so kind!

First of all, you compared Mr. Fang to a profiteer, which is really inappropriate.

Several villages were beaming with joy. It happened that the last batch of sweet potatoes had been dug and carried to the sweet potato factory. They came out with pockets full of money. This was another good year. Everyone was happy. Some were carrying eggs and sweet potatoes on their backs. Come thank Fang Zichen.

No one handed it over, so Fang Zichen reached out and took it first: "Oh, it's here as soon as it comes, and you brought some eggs. You're being polite."

The man also laughed.

There was a basket full of eggs at home. Fang Zichen looked at it. He was happy at first, but his face fell after a while.

Brother Zhao was choosing vegetables and glanced at him: "What's wrong?"

Fang Zichen held his chin with both hands and said, "I think it's Ersha. Why don't those boys come back?"

Ersha was not here, and he felt cold at home. It's so deserted, I'm not used to it.

Brother Zhao moved his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he closed his mouth again.

Fang Zichen: "What are you doing? Just tell me what you have to say! We have never done anything that we are not ashamed of. You are still shy with me!"

Brother Zhao: "...No."

"Liar, We have been sleeping together for several years. When you pout your butt, I know what you are going to fart. When I smell it, I can immediately tell what you ate yesterday and you want to lie to me."

Brother Zhao laughed: " What you said is so disgusting."

Fang Zichen said proudly, "It's disgusting that you like me so much."

Brother Zhao hit him: "Narcissistic."

Fang Zichen raised his orchid fingers and imitated him: "Sincerely . Love~"

Brother Zhao laughed.

The price of sweet potatoes has increased, and so has the price of wheat.

A year has passed, and it's time for the cattle raised in the northwest to be slaughtered.

The child was not at home and there was no one to play with. Fang Zichen felt extremely bored.

"Brother Zhao, let's go see Xiaofeng and take you to eat steak!"

It takes at least a full year for beef cattle to be released. However, I heard that it is very cold in the north this year, so Fang Zichen decided to take the cattle back in advance. , otherwise the people over there may have a hard time this winter.

Xiaofeng didn't follow Xiaofeng to deliver the goods last time, and it's true that we haven't seen each other for a long time. There's nothing going on here now. The Qin family likes children, and they won't bring them back so quickly. They have to live there for ten or so. Oh my god, Brother Zhao nodded.

Chapter 420

The next day, Fang Zichen took Brother Zhao to Bei'an County. It was also far away from the south to the north, and we walked for four days.

Xiaofeng manages an instant noodle factory. He usually behaves calmly. Although he is still younger and is a brother, the people below him are very respectful and trustworthy to him. But today, I don't know what happened. They used to be calm. The self-possessed young master's face flushed and he ran out of the factory in a hurry, as if in a hurry.

The aunt kindly pointed the way: "Young Master, I'm wrong, the latrine is over here."

Xiaofeng: "..."

There was a carriage parked in the open space outside the instant noodle factory.

When Xiaofeng saw Brother Zhao and Fang Zichen, he thought they were dreaming. The doorkeeper came in and reported that a couple had come outside. The man said he was here to pick him up to become a monk. Xiaofeng was startled for a moment and went outside. He ran away, but he wasn't sure. Seeing him standing at the door in a daze, Brother Zhao called him, and Xiaofeng jumped up with joy.

"Uncle Zhao, Uncle Fang, why are you here?"

"Let's see you." Brother Zhao said with a guilty conscience.

Xiaofeng rushed over and hugged his arm, and said with some embarrassment: "Uncle Zhao, did you miss me?"

Brother Zhao touched his head like he did when he was young: "Yeah"

Xiaofeng smiled shyly. Let him touch it, and after a while he stopped and looked around: "Where are the good boy and get out?"

Before Brother Zhao could say anything, Fang Zichen said with a sad face: "There was some financial situation at home before, so I sold them It was given to the butcher in town. Your second brother was short, and people thought he had a big head and no meat, so he gave it twenty taels of silver. Your third and fourth brothers were more promising and had more fat, so they gave him six taels. At home, We can't survive anymore, so we can only come to you."

Xiaofeng: "..."

Xiaofeng said unhappily: "Uncle Fang, don't think I'm stupid!"

Fang Zichen exclaimed: "Ouch. Hey, I can't lie to you anymore. I'm very happy that you finally have a brain after not seeing each other for a few months."

"Uncle Fang is so annoying."

Xiaofeng took them to inspect the factory.

Fang Zichen listened to what he said for a long time and kept nodding.

The instant noodle factory was managed in an orderly manner by Xiao Feng, and nothing had happened in the past year. He patted Xiao Feng on the shoulder happily: "You have really grown up." He shook his head and sighed: "Time is really running like water. It passed in the blink of an eye. I remember when you first came here, I had to wipe your butt. I was so worried about your chicken syndrome that I couldn't eat for more than half a month and my hair was about to fall out. It's really hard to think about it now. It feels like a lifetime ago."

Brother Zhao burst into laughter, obviously thinking of what happened back then.

"..." This was his dark history. Xiaofeng's face turned red and he gritted his teeth: "Uncle Fang!"

Fang Zichen was chased all over the factory by Xiaofeng.

This was often the case when the two of them were together. Xiaofeng was a brother, but Fang Zichen always regarded him as a young man.

Brother Zhao smiled and let them go.

Although instant noodles are selling well, and several other factories have directly mass-produced them, the instant noodles factory cannot do that here.

Xiaoli reported to Brother Zhao while walking.

The pepper and spices used in the factory have been imported from Jizhou in the past two months.

These are not commonly used medicinal materials, and there are usually few in medical clinics. Xiaofeng found out that Beimang is rich in pepper, cloves, cinnamon leaves, and cumin. The medical clinic here also purchases goods from Beimang. If he comes from Beimang, Buying it from a medical clinic cost him more than two taels of silver per pound, which was really not cost-effective. In the end, Xiaofeng took Xiaoli to Jizhou by himself, but Fang Zichen had written to him before, saying that the situation here was difficult. Xiaofeng didn't dare to run too far because he was worried that it would be unstable, because he was afraid that he would not be able to retreat in time if chaos broke out.

He signed a document with a businessman over there, and he could supply him with goods stably.

The problem of lack of spices has been solved, but Xiaofeng really doesn't know where to get the butter.

Fang Zichen ordered everyone to raise cattle in Beilu County, but Xiaofeng couldn't guess the intention. After all, there was a law in Daxia, and cattle could not be slaughtered at will.

This is what the regulations say, but regulations are dead and people are alive. When regulations hinder development, just change them. In this era of supremacy of imperial power, this is just a matter of Xia Jinghong's words.

Fang Zichen had already written to Xia Jinghong about this matter, and Xia Jinghong also approved it, otherwise Fang Zichen would not have dared to break the law and drag Brother Zhao over to eat beef.

The magistrate of Bei'an County was well informed. Fang Zichen had just come out of the factory and he was already waiting outside. The county

magistrate was very excited: "I have seen you, sir."

"Here you come!" Fang Zichen asked him to get up, and then took Brother Zhao and Xiaofeng back to the Yamen with him. As soon as he got off the car, the magistrate of Beilu County He was actually standing outside the Yamen.

Fang Zichen: "..."

As soon as he arrived in Bei'an County, the magistrate of Beilu County came. Is it so fast? This speed must have been launched with a rocket strapped to the butt!

No wonder the magistrate of Beilu County is anxious.

When he came back last year, Beilu County forced the people below to raise cattle. The people below complained and complained. Moreover, after the factory was built, he wrote to Fang Zichen, and Fang Zichen just said don't worry.

But how can you not be in a hurry?

Bei'an County, Beinan County, and Beiqu County have all made money, and the people are starting to live a better life. Only Beilu County is still in poverty. Although the wheat grown in the pioneer fields does not grow very well, it is still alive. He can barely stutter, but now he has asked people to raise cattle and plant grass. If the adults don't come, I'm afraid many people will die this winter.

A man from Qian'er reported that there were often people carrying hoes around his house recently. When the magistrate of Beilu County heard this, he was frightened and hunkered down in his house without daring to go out for several days.

...

The winter here in the north is relatively cold. Snow started to fall in mid-October, and the cold wind was biting, whistling like it was drilling into the bones, and blowing on the face like a knife.

The snow has fallen more and more densely in the past few days, and the snowflakes have become larger and larger, as if weaving into a white net. Only a few meters away, nothing can be seen. The trees on both sides of the road stand pitifully, with bare trees and grass. It turned yellow, and there was a desolate scene everywhere.

Winter like this is the most difficult.

Xiaolu Village has had a particularly difficult time this year. In the evening, Dahu came back from the mountains despite the wind and snow. He carried a small bundle of tree roots on his back, which he dug for a long time.

Recently, everyone has been running into the mountains, and it is difficult to dig out tree roots. The few tree roots on the shoulders have no weight, but the big tiger is hunched over, as if being crushed by so many tree roots. The steps were very heavy.

There are three children at home, and the father is in his sixties. Such a small amount of tree roots is not enough to eat.

Big tiger is worried! But there is nothing he can do.

As soon as he arrived at the foot of the mountain, he saw his boss chopping firewood at the foot of the mountain.

"Huwa."

"Dad, you're back." Huwa was very happy, but when he saw the tree roots on his back and his lips that were purple from the cold, he immediately became disappointed and felt so uncomfortable that he wanted to cry.

Dahu said: "Go home! Pick firewood for me!"

Huwa followed him holding the roots of the tree, without saying a word the whole way.

After returning home in the evening, Feng went to the kitchen to cook.

The more high-end ingredients often require only the simplest cooking methods.

Feng washed the roots, put them in the pot, poured half of the pot of water, covered the lid, and cooked it without adding any oil, not to mention salt. It was very healthy.

Dahu's house only has two thatched houses made of mud. They must be a few years old. The mud walls are full of cracks and look crumbling. They are even shabbier than the dilapidated house where Fang Zichen lived. It seems that if the cold wind is stronger, this house will The house collapsed, and several holes were broken in the roof. Continuous snowflakes kept falling into the house, making the poor hut extremely damp.

Feng and Huwa took straw and plugged the cracks, but it was still of no use. The cold wind penetrated everywhere and there was still air leakage everywhere in the house.

When it got dark, Ms. Feng and her children sat around the stove to keep warm. Dahu came out of the backyard and found a piece of tree root left in the pot.

"Is this left for me?"

"Yeah!"

"Did you all eat it?"

Feng avoided his eyes and said, "You have eaten it."

She dug out three roots and now left most of them for him. , can the family have enough to eat?

The three children looked at the pot eagerly, and then hurriedly looked away when Dahu looked over.

The roots are actually not very tasty when cooked, they are old and woody, and almost impossible to chew. It tastes like cucumber peel, a little astringent, and the texture is not very good. You can't stop biting it, like an old vegetable stem.

But even his children didn't dare to eat this kind of thing.

Dahu was so uncomfortable that he could hardly stand still.

Seeing that he lowered his head and did not move, Mrs. Feng sighed and said: "The family has to rely on you, we..."

Before she could finish her words, Dahu's eyes slid over the sallow and thin faces of the three children. , and then saw them huddled and shivering in only thin, patched clothes, and they were so cold that they looked like a human being. The tiger boy still had a pair of straw sandals on his feet, which were cracked by the cold and had holes, which made Dahu feel very dazzling.

Look at his father again. After winter, he gnawed at tree roots until all his teeth were lost. Now only three are left standing, and his smile is still a little scary.

Dahu was completely angry. He picked up the hatchet and rushed to the backyard.

"Master, what are you going to do?"

"Dahu."

Several people stopped Dahu, who waved his knife: "Let me go."

Feng was filial and would always give food to his father and a few others. The child, who has been hungry since the beginning of winter, has no strength now. Dahu pushed her and she spun three times before staggering to the side: "The boss..."

Dahu pushed her Daddy Tiger hurriedly supported her.

Dahu rushed over, and when he saw that she hadn't fallen, he went to the backyard again. Feng hugged his calf, Dahu's eyes were red: "I'm going to kill the cow, let me go."

There are so many animals in the house . After working hard for a whole year and taking care of them carefully, the cows grew fatter than people, but they were about to starve to death. Life was hard in the past years, but it wasn't like this. Last year they were able to free their tree roots, but this year they couldn't.

He spent most of the day searching in the mountains today and dug out three tree roots. The rest, the edible ones, were dug away. What will they eat tomorrow? His child is still so young, can he survive this winter?

I wanted to take the cow and sell it before, but I couldn't.

Generally speaking, the life span of cattle is generally about ten to twenty years, but farming cattle only have a life span of about nine to ten years. Generally, cattle at about seven years old can no longer plow the land, so seven years Only the above-mentioned cattle can be slaughtered. The geology here in Beilu County is special. Crops, wheat, and soybeans do not grow very well. Generally, they are mostly empty husks, but the pasture is quite abundant, so every household will raise some cattle, and This year, the government has forced every household to raise at least three cows, and no one will buy them. The Dahu family's cows are still young, and the butchers don't dare to buy them.

We can only take it back and continue to raise it.

Feng lay down on the cold snow, hugging his calf tightly, not daring to let go even if he said nothing.

If Dahu really killed the cow, he would probably have to go to jail tomorrow.

"What should I do? I can't watch the children starve to death!" At this moment, in front of the children and under the pressure of life, a strong-willed man was finally defeated, and in the end he had no choice but to lie on the ground helplessly. cried bitterly.

He is incompetent!

"Dahu..."

Dahu's father sat aside and shed tears silently. Seeing his little grandson's belly getting bigger and bigger, he was so scared that he couldn't sleep recently. The family was already poor, but now it's He owed the government more than a dozen dollars, and when he thought about this huge amount that almost crushed their family, Big Tiger's father always shed tears secretly and almost went blind.

How can you pay back so much money?

I can't live this life any longer.

The family hugged each other and cried. The road ahead was dark and they could not see the light.

Dahu's family was crying loudly, and several neighbors came over. They knew that it was Dahu who wanted to kill the cow, so they sighed and persuaded him before going back.

Every household is in difficulty, and those who are even worse off than Dahu's family are those who are surrounded by people who can't control others.

Things like this happened a lot in Xiaolu Village this year. They happened in every village and everywhere, and everyone was no longer surprised.

It's better to go home and chew the roots! Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to bite when it gets cold. Now all the edible tree roots in the outer part of the mountain have been dug up. Let's go inside and have a look tomorrow!

Although it is dangerous in the deep mountains, there is nothing you can do. If you don't go, you will die. If you go, you may be able to feed your family a whole meal.

At night, Dahu's family all curled up and slept in the kitchen. There was a fire in the stove, a layer of straw spread on the floor, and two tattered quilts with no color visible. But in the subzero weather, It's still cold, so cold that my feet hurt.

Dahu didn't dare to sleep too deeply at night. He got up every now and then to call the child, and the outlet heater suddenly turned to frost.

"Dad, Hu baby, wake up."

The children woke up. Dahu breathed a sigh of relief, and then he lay down again and held the youngest child in his arms, trying to warm him with his own body temperature. He was really afraid of the children. As soon as I fell asleep, I just left.

The next day, Dahu and several men carried hoes and sickles, planning to go into the mountains. As they were walking outside, they discovered that someone in the distance seemed to be heading towards the village.

The red clothes stand out in the vast whiteness.

As we get closer, it's the cadre.

The people in Xiaolu Village didn't have a good impression of the Yachai. If he hadn't carried a knife on his waist, they would have swung his hoe at him at this moment. No one paid attention to him. They just went back and called the village chief.

What's going on?

Are you calling them to raise cattle again?

This is no longer possible. Now they are physically and mentally exhausted just to fill their stomachs, and they really can't afford to feed anyone else.

The cadre said no, the factory over in Ninghe Village has started construction, and the cattle are to be harvested. If you want to sell them, just pull them over and exchange them for some money to sell some bedding, rice and grain to spend the winter.

The village chief suspected that he had heard wrongly and clapped his thigh: "Really?"

"Really." The Yamen chief said, "Master Fang specially ordered me to come down to the village to inform you. I don't dare to lie."

The village chief was excited after confirming again and again . It doesn't work.

This is really great, great, these people have a way to live.

After hearing this, Dahu turned around and ran home. He couldn't wait for a moment, so he and Huwa took three cows to Ninghe Village that day.

All villages were mobilized, and countless people drove cattle from all directions to Ninghe Village.

There was a long queue outside the factory.

A large beef cow costs thirteen taels of silver, and the small one that was just raised today is less, only nine taels.

Dahu's family originally raised two cows, but later the government ordered them to raise three more. The calves were brought from Beimang. Because they were small and plentiful, they were not too expensive. One calf only cost four taels.

Dahu's family was forced to raise three.

At first, the government forced them to take credit, but now they deducted it after reconciliation, and got nineteen taels.

Dahu held the silver in his hand, his hands shaking all the time, as if he was getting an electric shock. He couldn't believe this was true.

The tiger boy jumped up with joy: "Dad, we have money, we have money."

"Yes, yes." Big Tiger's throat couldn't help but choked with sobs: "Let's go to the town to buy food."

"Okay, I also want to buy a quilt."

"Buy, buy them all."

Nineteen taels of silver is enough for them to have a good winter.

Countless people were like big tigers, crying and laughing after getting the money, and then they held it tightly and rushed to the town immediately.

Obviously the snow is still falling, the wind is still blowing, and the clothes on the body are still thin and worn out, but everyone seems not to feel the cold anymore.

Huwa walked all the way, and his straw sandals were grinding, and blood was oozing from the cracked wounds at this moment. Bai Xue was dyed bright red, but he didn't seem to notice the pain. He raised his head and talked to Dahu with a smile.

Brother Zhao looked at this scene and inexplicably thought of Guaizi.

The same was true for his sweet boy back then. He was so small that his whole body turned purple from the cold, his hands were chapped with frostbite, and his hands and feet were stiff, but he still had to go all over the mountains and fields to find him in the fierce cold wind. Once I found the wild vegetables, I felt happy. I didn't seem to feel cold or in pain anymore. I took the small wooden stick I picked up, dug it with a runny nose and hummed, and then ran away with the wild vegetables in my hands. When he came to him, he raised his big head and said, "Daddy, my good boy has dug some wild vegetables. Daddy won't have to go hungry tonight."

Children are always easily satisfied.

Brother Zhao saw Dahu carrying him away.

He felt a little unspeakably heavy in his heart. Although he was living an average life, he couldn't bear to see the suffering in the world.

I miss my son inexplicably.

All the people in Beilu County ushered in spring in the cold winter. In just three days, everyone was dressed warmly and had enough to eat.

Everyone finally understood why the county magistrate asked them to raise cattle. If they didn't raise cattle and the land was not suitable for growing food, how could they have new clothes? Can I have a big cake to eat?

In the past, I could not make even half a cent of money throughout the year, but this year, I made dozens of taels in one fell swoop.

Keep raising cattle next year.

The ground is also planted with pasture.

The first county magistrate said that if you obey, you will get meat. Everyone still didn't believe it, but now they believe it.

Oh, mother, if I had known, I would have brought back more calves to raise, seven or eight, and if I had brought them to sell them now, I would have had to put the money in sacks.

The factory in Ninghe Village has not been put into use since it was completed. After the magistrate of Beilu County came back from Ganzhou, before the New Year passed, he started recruiting workers to start construction. It can be said that it was in a hurry. He thought that when it was completed, the adults would send people over, and then the common people There was work to be done, but the result was good. It was closed immediately after it was completed, and it was not opened until now.

The cattle were recovered, and Brother Zhao recruited a large number of workers from several surrounding villages. After hearing the news, Dahu also came to apply. Fang Zichen saw that he was strong and asked him to kill cattle specifically.

The factory hired about a hundred workers. After the cows were killed, the butter was boiled and sent to the instant noodle factory. The remaining beef was made into beef jerky.

This beef jerky is not difficult to make. Just soak it in bleeding water and change the water several times during the process. After soaking the beef, cut it into strips. Put the onion, ginger and aniseed in a pot under cold water to cook until the blood foam comes out. Take it out, wash it and dry it. Heat the oil in a pot and fry until golden brown, then add some Sichuan peppercorns, peppercorns, dried chili peppers, five-spice powder, chili powder, white sesame seeds, salt, stir well, and if you want it to look better, sprinkle with some white pepper Sesame.

Dried spicy beef can be stored for several months, so you don't have to worry about it going bad.

As for beef offal, it's easier to deal with. You can eat beef offal such as tripe, liver, kidney, tendon, and bezoars. There is so much and it won't be wasted at all.

Ninghe Village is only three miles away from the town, and cement has been built, making transportation there easy.

Brother Zhao bought a shop in the town and opened a hot pot restaurant directly.

It's cold here in the north, and in the middle of winter, who wouldn't like a mouthful of heat?

Since ancient times, no one can resist the temptation of hot pot.

On the day the store opened, Liu Da was going to the salt shop to buy some salt for his mother-in-law to use in cooking. As he passed the hot pot restaurant, he smelled a spicy smell.

Which store was opened by a bad guy?

It's so good, do you want to earn the half a tael of silver in his pocket?

Liu Da knew that his mother-in-law was powerful and he must not spend the half a tael of silver in his pocket carelessly, otherwise he would be beaten out later, but he couldn't control his feet and went to the shop by himself.

Once you go in, you can't come out again.

Liu Da was eating hot pot, taking a bite of beef loaf, and looked like he had entered the paradise world, and his courage instantly became stronger.

Just hit him. Anyway, he has been beaten for more than ten years, and he is not dead. He is afraid of a ball.

Mrs. Liu Da waited at home for most of the day, but she didn't see Liu Da come back. The food was still on the pot. She called her eldest son to go out and look for it. My son didn't come back either.

Mrs. Liu Da carried the knife and searched for a long time on the street. An acquaintance saw her and said, "Looking for Liu Da and the child!"

"Yes."

"They are in a hot pot restaurant."

Mrs. Liu Da looked for her and arrived. At the entrance of the store, she noticed that this store must have just opened. She had never seen it before, but when she walked in, she saw that the store was full of people. The three of her family members had eaten something and their mouths were red. She The head of the house sniffed and poured water into a large pot on the table.

Mrs. Liu Da was so angry that her nostrils were thickened. She rushed to Liu Da like a buffalo and kicked Liu Da directly on the back.

Liu Da flew out completely.

What a power! !

Fang Zichen looked on in shock.

He used to think that Brother Zhao was a tigress, but now he saw that she was a real tigress! His family is, at most, a cat that can scratch people.

This brother is also capable. After being kicked to the ground, he got up and continued to eat like a normal person.

This is either insensitivity, or he has become accustomed to being beaten.

Talent.

Later, Madam Liu Da also stayed in the shop.

Fang Zichen went to the kitchen. Brother Zhao was teaching the two newly bought husbands how to cook the base of the pot. Fang Zichen pulled him: "Brother Zhao, your cousin is here."

"What?"

"He's coming from outside. A very ferocious tigress."

Brother Zhao: "..."

Fang Zichen ate a spatula from Brother Zhao and ran out of the kitchen with his teeth bared, not daring to mess with him again.

Brother Zhao was very busy with Xiaofeng, but Fang Zichen was unhappy.

He asked Brother Zhao to roast beef for him. Brother Zhao had agreed for several days, but his beef was still gone, and he didn't know how to cook it himself. At this time, the resentment of a man was no less than that of a ghost. Brother Zhao Seeing him look like "If you don't give me barbecue, I won't pay you for the food tonight", I couldn't help but laugh: "Okay, I'll bake it for you tonight."

After roasting it last time, Brother Zhao couldn't help but laugh. I also like it very much. The marinated beef is very tender when grilled and the meat is rich in juice. You can feel the richness and deliciousness of the meat in every bite. Sprinkle a little cumin and it is really fragrant. After eating it once, Brother Zhao is like I never forget it, but I am really busy these days.

Fang Zichen was happy for a long time after hearing this, but in the afternoon the Qin family army came with a letter from the good boy.

At that time, Fang Zichen was squatting in a manhole. Brother Zhao didn't think much about his son, so he picked up the letter from the good boy.

Looking at it, I couldn't even take a breath.

Seeing that he was crumbling, Xiaofeng hurriedly supported him: "Uncle Zhao, what's wrong? What happened?"

Brother Zhao was speechless.

Xiaofeng hurriedly called out Fang Zichen. Fang Zichen tied his pants and ran outside: "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

Brother Zhao handed him the letter tremblingly.

Fang Zichen took it and looked at it and was instantly embarrassed.

"He wants my underwear? Is this kid's butt that big? The pullover fits just right."

At this moment, he just said it casually, but he didn't expect it to come true. Later, he found out that the boy really used his underwear. Wearing red underwear and following Qin Hengyi to kill the enemy, Fang Zichen didn't dare to leave the house for three days.

He was so embarrassed that he was sent abroad, and he really didn't dare to see anyone.
