CHAPTER XXXIV

Seeing a large number of ragged and hopeful homeless people, Ah Yuan's heart was sour, and he was full of emotion. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The law of Daqi stipulates that the status of slaves and maids is extremely low, only above the untouchables, and the difference between them and the free people is 108,000 li. But in today's world, everyone is vying to be slaves and maids, even if they are rough and handy, they can be fed and clothed.

However, Ah Yuan is a well-trained dead soldier after all, and after a moment of empathy, he calmed down and said politely to the visitor: "The girl has some words, I want the maid to explain to the leader of this camp, dare to ask......"

It is said that he has been in the Shangdang Xu family for so long, and he has been by Xu Hui's side for many years, secretly imitating the words and deeds of his own lord. Ah Yuan's gestures did not lose everyone's style, but also like Xu Hui, with a bit of mildness and fierceness - her tone was not heavy at all, but extremely gentle, the speed of speech was slow, and the words were extremely clear, without the slightest sense of domineering. But for some reason, seeing her attitude made people subconsciously want to obey her orders, and Lu Wulang was naturally no exception.

Because he didn't get his father's orders, the middle-aged man, who was used to obeying his father's orders, was slightly apologetic, and even looked at Ah Yuan in a little panic, asking her to stay for a while, and then trotted in. After a while, Lu Wulang ran back breathlessly, and saw that Ah Yuan did not show any anger, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a little caution: "Please come with me with the girl." ”

Walking into the simple tent made of burlap and wood, Ah Yuan found that as Xu Hui said, there were about twenty people sitting in the tent, and the atmosphere between several of them was extremely unharmonious, and she couldn't even hide it in front of her, an outsider. The person sitting in the first seat, his beard and hair are all white, and there is some majesty between his eyebrows and eyes that has been in a high position for a long time, and it can be found that this person must have read many books and been the patriarch of a small Hanmen family for at least 20 years.

The weaker the foundation, the more it is necessary to absorb talented children from poor families and adopt them for their own use, so as to accumulate strength and stabilize the foundation. This is what the Shangdang Xu clan has been doing for several generations, and it is also the secret of the family center, and it is the intention of a series of instructions to Xu Hui, and Ah Yuan can guess it without thinking about it. For Ah Yuan, who dedicated her body and mind to the Xu clan of the Shangdang clan, the prosperity of the Xu clan is also her responsibility, so the first moment she saw Lu Gong, she felt a deep sense of disappointment in her heart.

Lu Gong is the "leader" who is most in line with everyone's hearts, the most convincing, and the most fearful of the family, and does not dare to act rashly. When encountering this kind of person, the safety of Ah Yuan, Qin Jiu and the accompanying troops was almost guaranteed. But such a person is a completely unnecessary and useless existence for the Shangdang Xu family.

The Xu family of the party needs talents with their own strengths, even if their temperament and morality are not good, but they do not need one more leader.

Extremely restrained the disappointment in his heart, Ah Yuan nodded slightly to Lu Gong, no longer caring about the surrounding situation, just looked at Lu Gong, and said warmly: "The girl saw you following behind the team, the scene was miserable, and I really couldn't bear it in my heart. But my trip to the party Xu family is to visit relatives in Yingchuan, and most of the items I carry are books and household goods, and the food is just enough to eat, so I really can't shoulder your daily life, so I have to reluctantly give you twelve stones. Although it is a drop in the bucket, it is also a girl's heart. ”

Qin Jiu hid in a few parts, raised his eyes slightly, and quietly observed everyone present from the corner of his eye.

After listening to Ah Yuan's words, a few rough men who had never read a book were about to have a seizure, and when they saw the sharp spear tips and the cold light of the clothes knives of the subordinates, they knew that they couldn't please them with their hands, so they pressed it for the time being. Others either sneered, or ridiculed, or sincerely fearful, grateful to Dade, but there was no person Xu Hui wanted to see, who could see through and recognize the facts at a glance, and had a calm face.

Thinking of this, the disappointment in Qin Jiu's heart didn't have to be Ah Yuanshao. But thinking that talents are hard to find, and that they are going to Yingchuan next with many talented people, they relaxed a little, and took advantage of Ah Yuan's conversation with Lu Gong, and carefully observed for a while, and after making sure that there was no talent Xu Hui was looking for, he pulled Ah Yuan's clothes without a trace.

After getting Qin Jiu's signal, Ah Yuan didn't talk any more, and after a few words of greeting, he said, "Please ask Gong Lu to go with his servant to take a look at the food sent, so that you can relax." ”

Lu Gong nodded, and with the support of his children and grandchildren, he went out on crutches under the guidance of Ah Yuan, and the leaders followed. No one noticed that Qin Jiu and the other tribe were half a step behind without a trace, and followed at the end of the group, looking at the structure of the camp of the homeless people, so as to assess how much combat power these homeless people had.

After unloading the twelve stones of grain and pushing the cart back for a while, Ah Yuancai said softly: "I didn't fulfill the girl's request, it's really ......."

"Wait-" Qin Jiu raised his hand, looked at the grass, and motioned for Ah Yuan not to speak. He held a spear, pointed at the grass on the side, and said sharply, "The people who have been sneaking around us should get out, right?" ”

Hearing his words, all the men raised their spears in unison, or drew their sabers from their waists, their faces full of vigilance.

The subordinates present were all the elite of the Xu family, but except for Qin Jiu, who had excellent ear power, no one found that there was anyone hiding in the grass. If it was Qin Jiu's misjudgment, it would be fine, if it was true, this person's concealment ability would be extremely terrifying.

After a while, a thin man with a head covered with weeds jumped out, rubbed his hands, and said resignedly: "Master Jun, there is something to say, there is something to say!" ”

The two tribes stepped forward vigilantly, one twisted the other party's backhand, the other pulled out the rope and tied it up, and after making sure that the other party was not threatening, Qin Jiu and Ah Yuan stepped forward. I saw that this person was about twenty years old, but he did not have any youthful brightness, integrity and vigor, only a lewd atmosphere. When he laughed, his facial features were crowded together, and his eyes, which were obviously quite big, should have been narrowed into a line, and with that submissive attitude, people felt disgusted when they saw it.

Qin Jiu suppressed Teng Teng's angry disgust and anger, and said sharply: "You have been following us, what are your intentions?" ”

"Little ......" The other party just wanted to say something flattering, but when he saw Qin Jiu's eyes glaring, he was so frightened that he almost bit his tongue, and hurriedly said, "The little one is here to report the news, and the tiger head boss is very dissatisfied with your move of sending twelve stones of grain, and plans to sneak attack the military master's camp!" ”

As soon as Qin Jiu wanted to say something, Ah Yuan straightened up his face and scolded angrily: "Full of nonsense! We didn't part with the leaders until we left the camp, and we didn't go far now, and even if they were angry, there wasn't enough time to discuss them, so where did you know the 'facts'? ”

PS: Not everywhere you can recruit talent, alas......
