Not long after the autumn harvest, Mrs. Xiao Xia, as Mrs. Xia, took her two daughters-in-law and Xiaoyu to Zhang's house and Liu's house as guests. The Zhang family, who was still a little uneasy, saw Mrs. Xia, so they packed up all kinds of thoughts and began to walk around with the Xia family. Not long after, the fifth sister-in-law went to Wuchang County to take care of Xia Wuye, and the sixth sister-in-law went to Dalini to reunite with the sixth master.

Xiaoyu had time to take a closer look at his account books, and couldn't help sighing, the harvest of wheat was good, and the income of rice was better because of the small amount of rice planted locally, but the rice should be kept for his own food, and the income of the wasteland was even less pitiful. Although the business of the restaurant was good, as soon as she came back, she sent An Ge to open a few restaurants to the south, and these entries were filled in.

Xiaoyu had to go to Zhou Zhen to cry poor again, Shizi and Zhou Zhen looked at the lively Xiaoyu, and couldn't help sighing: "Who said that, after saving Xiaoyu this time, the Xia family owes them a favor." If it is according to what Zhou Wei said when he came back, it seems that they owe Xiaoyu a favor this time, but she doesn't care about these things, and gives all the credit to Zhou Wei and her sixth brother, which is rare. The prince happily waived the dividends of the past two years, and asked her tactfully: "What reward do you want?" ”

Xiaoyu waved her little hand and said, "Save it first, when I get married in the future, you two will give me more decency, so that I can be majestic in my mother-in-law's house." Shizi and Zhou Zhen looked at her indifferent energy, and only laughed so hard that their stomachs hurt.

Seeing that there was one thing missing, Xiao Yu was happy and made a round of inspections, and pointed out his property to the tattoo girl and Jiang Guard: "Wheat and rice are cooked land, and sweet potatoes and corn are newly opened wasteland. The big restaurant is mine, and the silk village is not all mine, but I also have shares. That lamp oil shop is my fifth sister-in-law's, and it also has a half-cent dividend. ”

Xiaoyu said while thinking in his heart: "No wonder King Yi has to look around every year, thinking that he is also like me, he raised his hand and pointed: "This city is the master's, that is the mountain is also the master's, and in two months, the two counties in the south are also the master's, they are all the masters, all of them are the masters'......" Xiaoyu thought happily, and he smiled in front of him.

Jiang Escort and Girl Wen followed behind, looking at her appearance and sighing, is it worth being so happy with such a little industry?

King Yi was really standing on the head of the city at the mouth of Tartar at this time, as Xiaoyu thought. Just looked at the black-pressed ironclad soldiers below: "This is what Yu'er and you did?"

Zhou Zhen hurriedly knelt down on one knee: "In a few days it will be my father's birthday, and my eldest brother and I can't go out with my father, so I came up with this idea and sent these five hundred ironclad soldiers to my father on his birthday, wishing my father an early victory." ”

Zhou Zhen knelt on the ground, and his heart couldn't help but go up and down, and he didn't know whether his father liked it or not, and whether he would think of anything else. King Yi squinted and looked at the five hundred ironclad soldiers, and then said, "Get up! As soon as Zhou Zhen got up, King Yi pointed to the guards beside him: "Send two hundred guard officers and three hundred vanguard battalions to attack." ”

King Yi looked at the pioneer camp that rushed out from the city gate and suddenly became half a head shorter in front of the ironclad soldiers, and couldn't help but think: "The pioneer camp is already the most powerful in the army, and now it seems that it has lost three points in this momentum." ”

The ironclad soldiers are not as fast as the vanguard battalion, but when they are pressed, they are like a rainbow. Seeing that the vanguard battalion pounced, it automatically dispersed and outflanked the two wings, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves sounded like rolling thunder, and the vanguard battalion was pushed off the horse by the spears of the ironclad soldiers almost without fighting, and the battle was unimaginably fast.

Even King Yi was taken aback, couldn't help but go down the city wall, and called a leading lieutenant to come over. I didn't feel anything when I looked at it in the city, but as soon as I got closer, I felt that the momentum of the other party was compelling, and I forced the war horse under my crotch not to dare to step forward. The lieutenant took off his helmet, turned over and dismounted, and King Yi recognized it at a glance: "Aren't you the team leader under Vice General Xue?" Hmm..."

Yang Baochen hurriedly said: "Yang Baochen, a subordinate, is now the captain of the Iron Guard. ”

King Yi was overjoyed, high-fived and said, "Good, good." ”

Zhou Zhen showed a smile at this time: "Father, it is not easy for our brothers to find these people, and you also know that my brother and I can't lead the troops, so these knights have not undergone much training." If my father has to use it, I'm afraid he will have to practice it. ”

King Yi smiled and said: "I'm afraid that this ironclad soldier is not very useful here, you and Xi'er are from the south, and you haven't fought before, so you don't know." It's cold in winter here, and after wearing such armor and only running for half a day, people will freeze. ”

Zhou Zhen's heart was cold, and he hurriedly asked in a deep voice: "I don't know how my father plans to use them." ”

King Yi patted him on the shoulder: "In a few days, I will have to use it when I go back to the south, the southerners will be drunk with money, and the soldiers trained are also timid and timid, as soon as this iron-clad guard appears, I am afraid that their legs will be weak." ”

Zhou Zhen hesitated for a moment and explained: "The iron armor of the Iron Guards is very heavy, and the long-distance march is very unfavorable, and it is too far to go to the south. ”

King Yi squinted his head sideways and stroked his chin: "This is a big problem, pass on my military order, and the iron-clad guard will be able to leave tomorrow." Hmm, it's better to separate the armor first. ”

The cold winter came earlier than expected, and Xiaoyu sat on the kang in a cotton coat made of Yingxue: "Yingxue, are you sure this dress looks like this? Look at the way I look now, I am clearly a roll of brocade quilt that can walk! Oh, forget it, you quickly send a little girl over to tell my mother, I won't go over to eat." Dressed like this, how can I meet people?"

Yingxue persuaded on the side: "You see that Sister Wen is in such good health, it's not the same as wearing cotton clothes when you go out." ”

Xiaoyu sighed: "Of course I know how to wear cotton clothes, but do you want to wear such thick cotton clothes? You see me sitting here, it's like sitting in a big pile of cotton, I don't need to be pushed, and I will stagger when I catch my breath." Alas, why is this place so cold!"

Xiaoyu sat there and thought for a while: "Yingxue, no, we still have to go over for dinner." ”

Yingxue looked at her puzzled: "Girl, I just sent someone over and said that you ate in your own courtyard." ”

Xiaoyu waved his hand: "It's okay, it's okay, it's still too late to pass now." ”

Yingxue couldn't help her bring the cloak and warm her hands, and she got dressed and packed up. Lin Zi hurriedly opened the curtain and watched them go out of the yard, and the little girl Cui'er who was sweeping in the yard couldn't help but ask: "On such a cold day, even if you stay in your room to eat, your wife won't blame." Why is the big lady still running outside. ”

Lin Zi shrank his hand, and when he opened his mouth, he was bubbling with white gas: "It's so cold, the eldest lady is worried about his wife." But I thought in my heart: "Girl's careful thinking, alas, if you want me to say that today is the day to change winter clothes in the house, I am afraid that she will be anxious to see other people's brocade quilts." ”

The Xia family's first New Year in Yanbei was quite deserted compared to previous years, and the second grandmother did not leave Mochiyue Mountain because she was pregnant. Because of the heavy snowfall, the fifth and sixth sisters-in-law did not come back after a long journey. Except for the second master who went down the mountain for the New Year, Mrs. Xia and Xia Xiucai only had the eighth master and Xiaoyu around them. Fortunately, Rushan, Ruchen is old, they brought their grandchildren, and Xiaoyu called An Ge's apprentices to come over to tell jokes, but it was quite lively.

In the winter, there were frequent reports from King Yi, and the south, which was supposed to negotiate peace, suddenly collapsed. Although the iron-clad guard had such and such shortcomings, it still made the officials and soldiers in the south change their style, and King Yi rose up, and he didn't even come back for the New Year.

However, the news came from the sixth master, and the Liu Governor of Hele was dismissed from his official position for dereliction of duty, and Sun Zongbing didn't know why, but he had an emergency. Fortunately, his eldest son has become an adult, and he will continue to guard Hele. Xiaoyu frowned, puzzled, so he called Jiang Guard and asked, "Mr. Sun looks very strong, how can you say that if you die, you will die?"

Jiang Escort said that he was just a small guard, where did he know the body of the chief soldier. It's just that the health of military generals has always been not very good, because they have been fighting abroad for many years, injuries are inevitable, and they often sleep in the open, leg pain, and stomach pain are common. Xiaoyu couldn't help but worry about the sixth brother.

During the spring sowing, Xiaoyu went to his field as usual to inspect it. Passing by the Zuo family's house in Yanbei, seeing that the gate was very lively, he sent Jiang Escort to inquire and realized: "Today is the day when Zuo Sanniang made a decision with the son of Wednesday." ”

Xiaoyu was at a loss, so she hurriedly pulled the servant who was guarding the door, and asked three or four times, and all of them replied: "The day when the third lady on the left is married." Xiaoyu hurriedly handed over the post to the twelfth aunt, went home and called Yingxue and asked, "What's the matter?" Didn't the third lady of the Zuo family marry Vice General Xue when she was very young?"

Yingxue thought for a long time: "I don't know about this." After thinking about it, he said a little embarrassedly: "However, I heard my mother say that General Huwei celebrated the princess's birthday and stayed in Yanbei for five or six days, and one day he met the Zuo family who also went hunting with his friends. I heard that Zuo Sanniang wore a fiery red riding costume that day, which was more beautiful than the burning clouds in the sky. ”

Xiaoyu sat on the kang in a daze: "Then what about Brother Xue, how can his stepmother find him a good family in the future?"

The next day, Xiaoyu went to Zhang's house, and after a few greetings, she pulled the twelfth aunt and asked, "I went out to see spring ploughing yesterday, and I saw Zuo Sanniang and Zhou Yun marrying each other?"

The Twelfth Aunt sighed: "I'll tell you quietly, Concubine Han is crazy." According to the current pattern, it is time for the second son to win over civil officials at this time. But Zhou Yun fell in love with Zuo Sanniang, even if it was Zuo Erniang, Concubine Han also recognized it. is also such a coincidence, I don't know who stabbed General Xue's military quartermaster in Yanbei to the southern pilgrimage, and the saint asked the protector to defend himself. ”

Xiaoyu asked in surprise, "Has Vice General Xue been promoted to general?" R1152
