Ji Qingchen knew that, as Xiao Ruiniang said, if San Lang heard her whistle in distress in the workshop, he would definitely send the Xu family brothers to lead the Fang Ding up the mountain to pick her up.

It's either Xu Laoda or Xu Laosi.

Although she is usually in the workshop, it is not that she has not thought of winning over the die-hard henchmen around San Lang, but her attitude towards the two brothers has always been to try not to contact if she can not contact.

She didn't forget that three years ago, San Lang was furious and wanted to kill Wang Shiqiang, who repented of his marriage, but she stopped him.

Ji Chenhu, who had nowhere to get angry at that time, didn't know who he had listened to the crazy words, and actually put on a face for the first time, "Although I am your younger brother, I am a man and I am the head of the family", and cautiously talked to her about the new marriage.

At that time, she didn't have time to be sad about regretting her marriage.

Because of her patience with the Siming Wang, it will definitely cause misunderstanding among the residents.

As long as the news of the repentance of the marriage spreads, the discussion that the owner thinks she is weak and can be bullied will be uproaring, so she doesn't mind listening to Ji Chenhu's opinion and using the new marriage to divert the attention of the people.

Anyway, the marriage candidate he can propose is unlikely to exceed her expectations.

According to Ji Chenhu's meaning, with him, her sister doesn't need to marry to a far away place in the Great Song Dynasty, in case he is bullied, he won't have time to stand up for her, and she won't be able to cry when the time comes.

But if she marries the eldest of the Xu family, or chooses one of the six brothers of the Xu family to be her husband, the situation will be different.

He Ji Chenhu can pack a ticket, who dares to make her look at her after marrying her, and say something that makes her unhappy, he can stand up for her, beat that kid He is not human, and from now on he only dares to kneel in front of her and dare not stand! .

And. He married Xu Shuqing, she married a brother of the Xu family, the two families are close to each other, lively and lively, no matter how the future is going, eating the most abundant lamb leg pig head or just filling the stomach of dried fish kelp, as long as the siblings and relatives are in front of you. Don't worry about each other, you don't know life and death across the sea. It's a good day......

Ji Chenhu believes that the Song people are not credible.

Wang Shiqiang is a clear proof of this.

So, she looked at Saburo's cautious face that day. didn't refute it immediately, and while she was wondering if this marriage could attract the attention of the people, the boss of the Xu family, who was standing behind Ji Chenhu at the time, had turned pale and found an excuse to turn around and go out.

Sure enough, it was what she expected.

Then she heard about it. After Boss Xu left Ji's house, he went straight to Mrs. Wang's house and urged her to be a matchmaker. The next day he was going to marry his old man in the workshop - it was better than the door.

God knows, there are five or six good women raised by Boss Xu in and out of the square, because none of these women are making a fuss about getting married, so they can't be controlled in the workshop. His days of hugging left and right were very nourishing, and he never got married for three or four years.

Now that he was frightened by Ji Chenhu's proposed marriage of Ji Xu, he immediately found out in his conscience. Finally remembered the old man - good is the meat of his heart that he must not live up.

When Ji Chenhu asked, he also looked back with a prodigal son's expression:

The old man is good to fight from the age of fourteen. has been with him for almost ten years, and he is not a man if he does not marry into the family.

With the eldest brother as an example, the brothers of the Xu family were greedy for the various benefits of marrying the owner, and discussed which brother to let be the "horse", and they also worriedly pieced together one after another from Ji Chenhu's various angry scoldings to Wang Shiqiang that did not leave a way for his brother-in-law to live:

For example, after marrying his sister, of course, the wife is in charge of the family's money, and the wife has the final say in family affairs, and she is not allowed to show her face to her or speak loudly to her wife......

That's what he can do Ji Chenhu.

When his sister married Wang Shiqiang, he couldn't interject a word, so he was stepped on his head by the repentant kid and slapped him in the face, but he couldn't care about marrying into the workshop?

In her not expressing her position, it seems to be a tacit acquiescence to this kind of "family rules", and the six brothers of the Xu family are all chickens and dogs jumping around in the workshop to say goodbye.

San Lang doesn't plan to let the "brother-in-law" take the opportunity to take the opportunity to meddle in the affairs of the workshop, this marriage is to find an obedient husband for Sister A's intention to let her live happily, and everyone has already seen it.

Rumors spread in the square, and no one paid attention to the repentance of Siming Wang's marriage, even Xu Laowu, who had already married his wife, and his wife Feng Niangzi was still pregnant with a fetus in her belly, and they all cried and cried Xu Shuqing to her and handed private words in front of her:

Their husband and wife are also small lovers, and they are very affectionate after half a year of marriage, and they beg the eldest lady to beg for the sake of the child in her belly, and plead with San Lang, so as not to break them up alive......

Because Nanfang has always left the tradition of male and female slave marriage designated by the suzerain, even if she replaced it with a matchmaker system like Wang Pozi, she only took advantage of the situation to transfer this right to Tang Fang, in order to subtly change this habit.

As Ji Chenhu's adoptive mother, Mrs. Wang is of course conducive to the people of Nanfang to accept such a change, but it also makes Ji Chenhu still have such authority.

When the two conflicted, she couldn't change that Ji Chenhu was the king of Nanfang Mountain, if he suddenly disagreed with Xu Lao Wu's marriage, most of the people in Nanfang would silently accept the status quo, including the crying Feng Niangzi.

Among the brothers of the Xu family, only Xu Lao Wu can be regarded as mild-tempered, he has not been praised on the street before marriage, and he has not beaten his wife after marriage.

He is also the only one of the six brothers who is good at housekeeping in the fang, and he usually gets along well with the people in the north fang, and Ji Chenhu has set his sights on Xu Lao Wu, not without reason.

After all, he also has to take care of Ji Erlang's meaning about this marriage.

Although he doesn't think that Ji Erlang and him are really family.

Because Ji Chenlong and Song Shang got too close.

It's so close that people wonder if he is a descendant of the remnants of Middle Earth, he wears Song clothes to read Song books, and uses Song paper to write Song ink, which is okay, the clothes and utensils of the Song people are good, not to mention the same is true of the owner;

He asked someone to buy a collection of imperial examination questions printed in the academy from Mingzhou, and tried to write a policy theory that had nothing to do with others; San Lang Ji Chenhu also asked someone to smuggle some military scripts and military formations from the Great Song Dynasty from time to time;

But he wanted to imitate the system of the Song people, and let all the street managers in the north and south squares take the most stringent Song Wen exam before they could take office, but it made almost all the people in the south square regard him as an enemy.

The literacy of the residents of Nanfang is far inferior to that of Beifang.

There are rumors in the workshop that he is not the owner's cousin at all. It is a common drifter in the East China Sea, a Song boy who drifted to Fusang after a shipwreck accident at sea.

So Ji Erlang can't be the owner.

Although Ji Chenhu and he grew up in a small village, he did not prohibit such nonsense from circulating in the workshop.

She often thinks that three years ago, maybe it was because of this jaw-dropping Xu Ji marriage farce, the north and south squares were restless, and the east and west squares were busy watching the excitement......

Equally. She did not immediately forbid the people from talking about the new marriage, to which she could not have agreed. On the contrary, he used a dispensable attitude to add fuel to the fire of Ji Chenhu's nonsense, so that the people in the community were happy to talk about all kinds of gossip:

For example, which Xu family brother will she choose to marry; How does the boss of the Xu family settle the outside after he gets married;

The fourth elder of the Xu family has the most eyes, and this kid must have the intention of marrying the owner as his wife. Maybe the idea of Ji Xu's marriage was given to San Lang by him, but now he is trapped in the "Ji family rules" that his "brother-in-law" can't interfere in the affairs of the house, how distressed he should be;

and the pair of hard-working mandarin ducks of Xu Lao Wu and Feng Niangzi, will they be broken up by the owner......

Even she did not prohibit the rumors that Erlang was a Song boy in the workshop.

Although she knew that these words came from the Nanfang mansion.

After being repented of by the Siming Wang. She needs a respite, a weakness that makes the people not remember the humiliation of the owner but doesn't fight back completely.

Although she was waiting for the best time to fight back.

She didn't forget how deep the roots of the Siming Wang clan were in Tangfang. It was so deep that even if Xie Guoyun built two arrow towers to choke the sea route into Fanghai, he would not be able to compete with Wang Shiqiang in the East China Sea.

So knowing that San Lang was crowding out Erlang, she could only protect herself first.

She understands that the reason why San Lang has changed the habitual norm of "Sister A's affairs can be settled by herself". suddenly put on a posture of "he is a man and he is the head of the family" at home, busy showing her the marriage, and busy arranging an obedient husband for her. Let her live comfortably under his wing for the rest of her life, isn't it because of regret about marriage. He thinks even more that she can't even protect herself, can only be protected by him?

Wang Shiqiang, who is most familiar with their three siblings, doesn't know that as long as he withdraws his support for her, such a change in the workshop will be a matter of course.

Saburo has grown up.

And she should also learn to choose allies for the next stage, not just use the most convenient marriage to get a strong husband to help her build and manage the Tang Fang, she should also move on.

So, she didn't have time to be sad about Wang Shiqiang's departure, so she had to devote herself to this change due to regret her marriage, in order to keep her position as the owner of the workshop and advance her next plan step by step.

Because she would never repeat the mistakes of the past, she accepted Wang Shiqiang again in order to regain the support of the Siming Wang clan.

She just scolded San Lang in private, and made it clear that she didn't like the six brothers of the Xu family who beat their wives at all-she hadn't forgotten the ruthlessness of those brothers who dared to come up and drag her away when the fire was first merged-but she could also see that Ji Chenhu wanted her to find a son-in-law in the workshop to marry nearby, not a joke.

From then on, she could only turn a blind eye to the Xu brothers.

They also avoided her, and they all thought that the other party did not exist.

lest Ji Chenhu think of this marriage again.

But when it comes to fist and foot kung fu and the ability to lead the fangding, Ji Chenhu's first candidate who will be sent to the mountains to take her back to the fang is still the Xu family brothers.

Especially the eldest and fourth, they are Ji Chenhu's right-hand men.

She is in Zhuangzi today, and she can't be regarded as not knowing, and she doesn't make arrangements for them to go up the mountain early.

Period Tongnu watched from the sidelines and found that she arranged for Zhuang Ding to pick up the people who entered the mountain in the workshop one by one, and it seemed that she actually had no guards and planned to go to Zhuma Temple alone.

He did not persuade, and stood aside and remained silent.

He waited, waited for her to come and beg him to send someone for protection.

Although all of his 100 Ezo warriors had been sent out, he still had eleven tribesmen with him, who had just been bought back from the Fuso merchants, one of whom was his nephew.

As is customary these days, it took them three months to heal from their injuries. He is teaching them to speak Song dialect, to farm, to use iron tools, to use alcohol to disinfect wounds, and then to spread medicine to bandage them.

In his heart, they are all warriors in the tribe, warriors who have been cursed by sorcerers, and those Song people in Zhuangzi. It is said to have come from the north of Middle-earth. These people did not believe in gods and did not worship shamans on time, and their skills were certainly not comparable to those of the warriors of the Ezo tribe.

Accompany her to the mountain once. Eleven people are enough.

Moreover, as long as she opens her mouth to borrow someone, he will have the opportunity to put forward more conditions:

For example, the blacksmithing workshop she built at the foot of the mountain has not yet been touched by the Ezo people. Her firearms workshop was not even allowed to enter the Tang Fang people......

Of course, she was more calm than Qi Tongnu, and she didn't say a word about borrowing people. She first followed Lloyd's to the board house where she changed clothes, and honestly changed into a hand-woven linen dress often worn by women in the mountains.

Stonenu frowned as she simply smeared the Evil Charm with grass juice on her face and replaced her with eucalyptus bark boots on her legs. The short knives on his waist have been replaced with beast bone knives.

Unless she is a tribesman from the same tribe, she can be identified according to the details of the symbols drawn by the wizard, and outsiders in the mountains and forests in the middle of the night will not recognize her as a disguise. And there are at least twenty or thirty different tribes in the Yazhu Mountain.

Only the small crossbow machine was hidden in the animal-skin cloak outside her sackcloth. He also had a medicine bag, a tin wine jug and an oilcloth bag hanging from his waist.

Stonenu couldn't help but light up when he saw the small dark green tarpaulin bag behind her waist.

He knew that there were three small black balls in the waterproof bag, the latest firearms newly sent by the Yamashita Workshop, and he had already seen the power of firearms.

In the past, like all the Ezo people, he thought that the power of firearms was the lightning strike of the gods.

But now, he already knew about the powerful weapon invented by the Song people.

He wanted to regain the tribal lands occupied by the Fuso and to save all the captured tribesmen, so he agreed to the hostess and sent the Ezo warriors to the battlefield to protect her land.

In return, not only did he settle the more than 1,000 captive tribesmen of his small tribe and let them learn the secret art of farming, without even having to open his mouth, but she also provided the Ezo people with iron and swords for free in order to keep the Grange safe, and even taught them how to use crossbows.

But he knew that without the supply of Tang Fang, it would be impossible for the Ezo people to make these sharp weapons, and all the firearms were for the Zhuang Ding to use, and there was no share of the Ezo people.

"My nephew is in Zhuangzi, you can let him accompany you."

It wasn't until she walked alone to the front of the village that Qin Tiekou gave the order to put down the hanging door, and the stone slave who followed them opened his mouth,

"They were the best warriors in my tribe, and though they had only just learned to wield iron knives and crossbows, it was enough to protect you, and let them carry you through the Moonlight Grove—"

The Moonlight Forest is an abandoned sacrificial ground for the people of Fuso Mountain, and it is also a short way to go straight to Zhuma Temple.

She paused, pulled out a weird smile on her lips, looked back at him, and said:

"The nephew of the headman? Not yet twenty, right? Do they have a female companion in the tribe? Are their children and parents in Zhuangzi? ”

Stonenu sank his face, endured the irritation that he couldn't attack, and explained as calmly as he could, saying:

"I've convinced them that cooperating with you is all for the future of the clan, and they won't mess around. The captured chieftains and sorcerers of our tribe have been killed by the Fuso, and we are all willing to believe in the great sorcerers of the other tribes of Ezo and follow their guidance, since the chiefs and sorcerers have consulted together and written to us to agree to cooperate with you, and they have also found the secret harbor where the ship was built according to your request, my people will not make trouble anymore. ”

Snutong was just a small head in the clan, and he didn't have enough prestige to negotiate with Tang Fang.

But when the clan leader and the sorcerer were captured and killed, he was the most famous warrior in his tribe when he was young, and he did take the captive tribesmen into the village one after another.

They don't have to be chained as slaves, and they don't have to worry about being tortured and killed.

Therefore, those diehards who have always opposed him, who oppose helping Tang Fang burn forests and open fields, and oppose learning to farm and settle down, have been suppressed and persuaded by him.

Just like when she was in the workshop, she would inevitably meet a Ji Hong who opposed everything to the end.

And she, Ji Qingchen, didn't know anything about Stone, a Ezo slave, and she didn't expect that she could find out that there was a secret port for building ships in the territory of the Ezo people.

She just walked past the timber yard one day, when she went to the Song Palace to urge the progress of the project, and the tall slave who guarded the yard suddenly spoke to her in simple Song language, wanting to negotiate with her.

She was shocked by his ability and speed to secretly learn Song language, as well as his forbearance.

What's more, he actually had the shrewdness to negotiate with her instead of looking for Erlang and Saburo.

After all, for the sake of the Qiē she planned, she needed allies more than Jiro and Saburo.

- An ally other than the husband.

This time, she can't afford to fail again.

And seven or eight years of cooperation with Song businessmen like Wang Shiqiang, and even the same old friendship with Huang Qilang for ten years, have given her the ability to find ways to deal with the Ezo people faster.

Past experience, whether successful or not, will become a stepping stone for her to continue to move forward.

It's just that Stonenu has his own pride.

"Touren, it's not that I don't believe in the bravery of the Ezo people, but I'm more concerned about whether they will break away halfway and do their own thing, and, according to our Song people, your nephews and nephews are all young and young, and they are also at the age of marriage, I don't want to accept the pheasants and bobcats they gave me before the matter is done-"

This is not the first time she has encountered such a situation, and even among the daughters-in-law of craftsmen who moved from Zhuangzi, even Lloy's was offered prey by Ezo men for pleasure.

The Ezo people chased after their female companions, and they didn't care at all whether they were married or not, whether they were other people's wives or not. (To be continued)
