113: A slap in the face

~

But in my heart, I can't stop looking forward to it and worrying.

I don't know if this Zhou Erlang is the same Zhou Jingping who met in the city that day?

If it really is, can the other party look down on him?

Fingers tightly grasped the corners of her clothes, and Song Chunyue, who had always been free and refreshing, suddenly felt that she couldn't feel confident.

The Zhuang family was still chattering, and Song Chunyue's face was getting redder and redder, and she couldn't raise her head.

Jiang Ying saw her blushing face and clenching her fingers, thinking that she was uncomfortably tight, so she didn't make a joke, but instead diverted the topic of Zhuang and Li, and talked about choosing a store.

Song Chunyue suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, and she was no longer as nervous as she was just now, and her eyes couldn't help but contain some gratitude when she looked at Jiang Ying.

Although Jiang Ying usually looks like she doesn't care about everything, she always inadvertently makes people feel extra warm and meticulous.

I'm afraid that even she herself hasn't been unaware of this, right? -

Song Chunfeng put Zhuang and Jiang Ying down on Yongfu Street, and continued to drive Li and Song Chunyue to Hanfu.

This trip to see the storefront, Jiang Ying is not unprepared, she has entered the city a few times before, and she has a rough idea of what good shops are to be rented out nearby.

Therefore, if you come here today, you don't have to run blindly, you just need to compare according to the goals you found before.

"Nurse, let's go to the front one first, it is said that I used to be in the inn business, but I closed the door because of poor management, and I was in a hurry to rent it out-" Jiang Ying pointed to a shop in front of her and said to Zhuang's.

But I saw that Zhuang's footsteps seemed to be frozen, and he didn't move.

"Nurse?" Jiang Ying looked at her suspiciously.

Unexpectedly, not far away, Fang Xinyuan, who was wearing a royal blue shirt, took Ah Fu and just walked out of a small vermilion building-

The doors behind the two were ajar.

Jiang Ying couldn't help but wonder what kind of place this was, and she didn't open her doors to do business in broad daylight.

So he subconsciously looked at the plaque hanging upstairs.

On the big red plaque with carved flowers, there are three big characters of "Flower Willow Building".

It's hard not to think about the name......

Looking at Fang Xinyuan's sleepy-eyed and not very awake appearance, Jiang Ying immediately understood--this product was spent overnight in the Qing/Lou.

I really can't change this dissolute virtue anywhere.

"Sister Ying, let's go and see the shop-" Zhuang pulled Jiang Ying and walked forward, for fear that she would pounce on her and stick to Fang Xinyuan.

At the same time, he cursed in his heart, what are you really afraid of, how can you be so decent, this Fang family man also came to Suzhou City?

Could it be that a place as big as Kyoto can't be debauched from him!

didn't know that Fang Xin came to Suzhou a month ago, and just yesterday, she staged a bitter drama of death in her home.

It's just that Jiang Ying thought it was too ridiculous, so she didn't mention it to Zhuang.

Jiang Ying knew Zhuang's intentions, and she didn't want Fang Xin to see her from afar, lest he have to say that he was following him, and maybe he would take a pair of scissors out to cut himself, so she was obediently pulled forward by Zhuang's family.

She was so obedient that Zhuang felt unaccustomed.

The picture of Sister Sakura chasing the Fang family Lang around seems to be just yesterday.

So, Zhuang lowered his voice, but persuaded bitterly: "Sister Ying, you can't be half-hearted, since you already have someone you like, let him go in the past, don't you see the Fang family's eldest man, you have to rekindle his old feelings for him-"

Jiang Ying resisted the urge to laugh, and nodded seriously with a stern face.

Zhuang Shi was relieved to see that her expression did not seem to be fake.

Knowing that this kind of thing couldn't be said much, and for fear that Jiang Ying would think too much, she didn't mention Fang Xinyuan's matter again.

I just thought that it would be better not to meet again in the future.

The two looked at the shop in front of them that they were going to rent out, and felt that the shop was too big, and it was not much different from a restaurant, so they had to go elsewhere to take a look.

The first is that they didn't plan to make it so big in the first place, and the second is that they don't have enough money in their hands.

After looking at it like this, they didn't see a suitable one on Yongfu Street.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Zhuang asked yì to find a restaurant to eat something, and continued to look for it when he had filled his stomach.

Jiang Ying was most afraid of being hungry, and she had no objection when she heard it.

The two found a nearby restaurant, sat down in a corner, and ordered four dishes and one soup.

Xiao Er came over with a pot of hot tea and poured two cups, then said with a smile, "Wait a minute, guest officer", and sent the menu to the back kitchen.

At this moment, it is almost noon, but it has not yet arrived, so there are not many people eating in the lobby, and including Jiang Ying and Zhuang's table, there are only three tables of people.

At one table, two young men dressed as scholars were raising their glasses and drinking, and at the other table were four or five middle-aged men dressed in short brown, who must have just arrived, and the food had not yet been served, sitting together and talking loudly.

"You've heard that, right? The daughter of Ji's second family went out of the city to incense, and Bacheng was taken captive by the barbarians, and there is no news from the government so far! It's really pitiful!"

"Isn't it, people have been panicking lately, and they don't dare to go out of the city. It is said that these barbarians came all the way from the Baohe River, burning, killing, looting and doing all kinds of evil......"

"Relying on our wind and civil strife, we actually took advantage of the weakness to enter, and even the Han family did not shy away from it, it really didn't know the height of the sky!"

"It's a shame that they are in Jincheng now, if they really don't have long eyes to come to our Suzhou City, how can Han Tingshi spare them!"

"If these brute bulls really dare to enter our Suzhou City to cause harm, Lao Tzu will be the first to take a knife and cut them down!"

A few people were angry and almost slapped the table.

Jiang Ying heard it in a fog.

This arm was injured, and he was raised at home for a while, but he couldn't keep up with the pace of the times.

Evildoers of barbarians?

She hadn't heard of it yet.

Being in Suzhou, it is natural to be attentive to these things.

"Nurse, where did the barbarians they call come from?" Jiang Ying asked the Zhuang clan.

It is no better than Jiang Ying's door, Zhuang sells pastries in the market, and no big or small news can be hidden from her ears, so it is easy to hear Jiang Ying ask about this curiously at this moment.

Zhuang took a sip of tea, then put on a long story, and said: "The barbarians from the northwest side say that there is perennial civil strife and competition for territory, and the people's lives are even more restless than ours...... Originally, it was our Wind Country that paid tribute every year, but in the past two years, seeing that we are mostly fighting and taking care of ourselves, we are unwilling to bow down anymore——"

Jiang Ying listened carefully.

"Speaking of which, it was three or four months ago, I heard that there was an army surnamed Yan from the northwest, burning, killing, looting and doing many evils along the way, it is said that they are all very fierce, and they are also very good at riding and shooting...... The vassal kings of several states along the border, all of whom had soldiers in their hands raised troops to rebel and approached the capital, and the city was empty and defended, and they could not defeat these barbarians at all, and those who did not have troops in their hands did not need to be mentioned, and the common people who came along the road did not know how much they had suffered......"

Speaking of this, Zhuang Shi paused, then lowered his voice and said, "Those girls and women, even more ...... Not even a whole corpse was left afterwards. ”

There are some more brutal and specific, but because Jiang Ying is still young, Zhuang is a little measured, so he didn't say it again.

But Rao was like this, Jiang Ying still frowned when she heard it.

Even though she didn't have any feelings of worrying about the country and the people, when she heard these words with her own ears, she couldn't help but feel that these barbarians who took advantage of the situation were too cruel.

"Said that he had already arrived in Jincheng." Zhuang sighed.

Jincheng is only 100 miles away from Suzhou.

"That's why I've been checking out the city and entering the city very strictly." When the Zhuang family said this, seeing that Jiang Ying's face was not very good-looking, he thought he was frightened, so he hurriedly comforted: "We believe that Suzhou City will not dare to violate them for a while, even if they really move the real character, they are only a few thousand people, and they are not the opponent of the Han family-"

An elite army of seven or eight thousand people who are good at riding and archery is already a great army in today's divided and troubled times, but the Han family is the Han family after all, and it can be seen in the matter of King Fu that in their eyes, there is not much difference between a vassal king and an ant.

Although they didn't do it at the moment, it was just because these barbarians hadn't touched the bottom line of the Han family yet.

Thinking of the girl from whose family the person at the table just said was taken captive outside the city, if it was a big fuss, the Han family would definitely not stand idly by.

Let's see if these barbarians will get acquainted with each other and bypass Suzhou.

Jiang Ying wrote down this information about the current situation, but did not think about it again.

It's useless for her to think too much about this kind of thing, she just needs to understand a little.

After finishing lunch in the restaurant, Jiang Ying and Zhuang went straight to Dongzhi Street.

Dongzhi Street is the most prosperous street in Suzhou City, and the flow of people is extraordinarily large.

But again, the rent of the shop pù is exceptionally high.

Walking down a street, Zhuang and Jiang Ying fell in love with a suitable place.

It's just that because of the price, I didn't agree to it, but only said to go back and think about it.

Out of Dongzhi Street, the two came to Jinyun Street again.

Compared with Dongzhi Street, this side is a little remote.

However, due to the fact that there is a very famous Jinyun theater on Jinyun Street, plus one of the largest medicine stores in Suzhou City, it is not too deserted.

The reason why Jiang Ying came here was because when she came to listen to the play with Liang Wenqing last time, she happened to see a restaurant that was going to be rented out.

But because the rules of leasing are 'strange', no one has been paying attention to them.

This restaurant is a three-story restaurant, but the owner is only willing to rent out the first floor and backyard, but the second and third floors are kept, and they are not willing to rent it to people who are not very serious about running gambling halls and ji/guan.

There are many inconveniences.

Jiang Ying thought it was good.

This form of rental is common in modern times.

Jiang Ying told Zhuang about the situation here, and followed Zhuang to the restaurant.

The door of the restaurant was wide open, and there was no one behind the counter in the lobby, but there were two children in the hall, a man and a woman, sitting face to face on the bench of a table, holding a red rope on their fingers and playing tricks.

Hearing someone come in, the girl, who was about six or seven years old, who was a little older, hurriedly stopped what she was doing, blinked a pair of big black eyes and asked curiously, "Who are you?" ”

Although Zhuang is a big voice and a big temper, when he saw such a pink and tender little doll, he couldn't help but soften his tone and smiled: "We saw a rental license plate hanging outside this restaurant, come in and take a look." I don't know if the host's house is available? ”

The girl glanced at Zhuang, and then at Jiang Ying, who was smiling at her behind Zhuang, before turning her head and shouting towards the second floor: "Mother, someone has come to see the shop-"

After a while, I heard the voice of a woman answering from upstairs.

Not long after, a tall and thin woman wearing a long gown embroidered with grapes and purple embroidered dark stripes and a bun came down from the second floor.

The woman was about twenty-six or seventeen years of age, with a thin face that was not powdered, and she smiled very kindly and gently, and spoke softly and slowly.

After greeting each other, the woman let the two children go to the backyard to play, and she sat down with Zhuang's Jiang Ying to talk.

Only then did she know that the woman was a new widow who had just lost her husband, and the restaurant collapsed as soon as her husband left, and she was a woman who didn't know how to do business, so she could only dismiss the guys in the restaurant, and because their family had always lived in this restaurant, they were already accustomed to living, and they had no money in their hands to find another place to live, so they only rented out the first floor and the backyard.

In this way, it is understandable that she is reluctant to rent this place as a gambling house.

For the sake of myself and my two children, I naturally can't let this place become a miasma.

The woman listened to Zhuang and Jiang Ying's words, and learned that they were going to start their own business and open a restaurant, and they were extremely happy.

First, she used to be a restaurant here, and Jiang Ying and her family want to open a restaurant, which can be regarded as a peer business.

In addition, Jiang Ying and Zhuang are both women, so it is more convenient to get along, and it can be said that a lot of trouble is avoided.

Therefore, before Jiang Ying and Zhuang left, the woman said several times in succession for the two to think about it, and if they were not satisfied with the price, they could discuss it again.

Jiang Ying and Zhuang responded with a smile.

The woman sent them out of the restaurant, and then turned back to see the children.

"Compared with the two places, the price here is much lower, but the location on Dongzhi Street is better......" Zhuang said worriedly, caught in a difficult choice.

If you are doing business, if you choose a good location, the probability of success will be much higher.

But it's true that this one is more satisfying.

Jiang Ying nodded, comparing the conditions of the two in various aspects, while following the Zhuang family forward.

At this moment, a clattering sound of horses' hooves sounded behind him, and he gradually approached the two.

Two horses walked unhurriedly towards this place, and at once sat two men dressed in ordinary clothes, in front of whom he had a thick beard, and looked about forty years of age, with a burly figure and a rough appearance, and a large rough hand holding the reins, while looking at both sides of the street with strange eyes.

A young man followed behind was dressed as a retinue.

It was very common for people to ride horses through the city of Suzhou, so pedestrians did not pay special attention to these two ordinarily dressed people.

At this time, a middle-aged man with a beard stopped in front of a stall selling paper kites, and suddenly turned over and dismounted.

The attendants in the back also jumped off the horse's back and respectfully followed the man.

"Hahaha, it is said that the little ladies in Suzhou City are the most smart, and it is true!" The man didn't open his mouth, and when he opened his mouth, he said something extremely debauched, which caused the passers-by to look sideways.

The entourage wanted to step forward and persuade him, but thinking of his master's temperament, he had to give up.

In short, it's not a big deal if you don't make a big fuss and don't reveal your identity.

At this moment, the man actually grabbed the waist of the nearest woman in pink shirt, and took it into his arms without saying anything!

"Come, let me take a sip!" The man laughed.

The woman was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she screamed again and again.

Zhuang and Jiang Ying, who happened to pass by here, were quietly attracted to the past, and then they saw three or five men coming forward to persuade them, but before they could get closer, the entourage actually pulled out a bright big knife from their waists and pointed it at everyone!

The people of Suzhou City live and work in peace and contentment, and the people are simple, how have you ever seen this situation!

For a while, everyone was so frightened that they fled one after another, where did anyone dare to step forward and talk more.

Some of them were still a little sensible, and hurriedly went to the yamen.

Seeing this, the man laughed even more proudly, and his big hands roamed over the woman's body, and the woman struggled, but to no avail.

Jiang Ying and Zhuang looked white.

Where did the Zhuang family dare to let Jiang Ying look at this kind of picture again, and immediately took Jiang Ying's hand and walked away.

Although Jiang Ying had some sympathy for this woman who flew into trouble, she was not the White Lotus Holy Mother who could not risk her own safety for the sake of others, she knew that she did not have the ability to save her, so she had to follow the Zhuang family and leave quickly.

No matter where you are, this is still a world that speaks by strength.

Not far away, Jin Qi, who was standing under the locust tree, was slightly relieved to see Jiang Ying leaving.

He followed Yan Jianzhan all the way here, waiting for the opportunity to do it, but unexpectedly met Jiang Ying.

I'm really afraid that this brainless woman will get mixed up like this without eyes......

However, things are always impermanent.

Jiang Ying has no intention of being a hero to save people, but she can't escape the end of being embarrassed-

Just as she was about to leave, the bearded man suddenly let go of the woman in his arms, and stepped forward a few times, grabbing Jiang Ying's arm!

Jiang Ying's left arm had just been removed from the plaster cast for two days, and although it was basically healed, she was almost broken up by his vigorous tugging, and she immediately exclaimed in pain.

As soon as he turned around, he saw a dark man with a plateau red and a scar face approaching him, and he said with a smile: "I look at this little girl who is more beautiful and beautiful!" Hahaha! ”

Seeing that he was about to come over with a hot face, Jiang Ying felt a chill and vomited in her stomach, and she reached out to push it.

Seeing her resisting, the bearded man was even more energetic, trying to drag the person into his arms, but was slapped in the face by Zhuang, who suddenly stepped forward.

"Smack!"

The strength of this slap Zhuang was ten percent, and the sound was surprisingly loud, Jiang Ying felt that the people on the whole street could probably hear it!

You must know that Zhuang's divine power that can lift the cow trough with his bare hands is not comparable to others!

Holding a bow and arrow in the distance, the remaining anger still rose: "......"

What's going on?

Rao is tall and burly bearded man, but he can't escape the fate of being slapped by Zhuang's slap and taking seven or eight steps back...... After being hit by this slap, his eyes were full of stars, the corners of his mouth vomited blood, and his body shook a few times, and he almost didn't fall down.

"Master!" The attendant stepped forward to support the man and looked at Zhuang in horror.

Who said that the women of the Wind Country are all weak wind and willows, weak and can't help the wind!

This is simply a lie!

Such a fierce woman, even in their northwest, they will never find a second one to come out!

"She looks so ugly and has the face to come out and tease the little girl! It's really a nasty thing that the world is declining, and the birds/beasts are not as good as the obscene things! Zhuang scolded, with an angry face.

She is a nosy person, so she just pulled Jiang Ying away, not wanting to get into trouble. But now that the man touched her sister Sakura, it's a different story!

Her Sakura sister can't be bullied by anyone!

This series of changes happened at this moment, and Jiang Ying, who was protected by the Zhuang family, was simply dumbfounded.

Almost instantly, Jiang Ying understood.

Her biggest crotch...... It's a nurse!

At this moment, the little girl, who was light and thin by the man at first, actually ran over as if she was flying, and hid behind the Zhuang family like Jiang Ying to seek protection.

Looking at the little lady with pear blossoms and rain and her shoulders shaking, Jiang Ying was already dumbfounded-she just said...... How secure is her nurse......

Zhuang stood in front of the two, his posture could not be more majestic, and he looked at the bearded man who was beaten aggressively.

Jin Qi always pays attention to the movement here, waiting for the best time to make a move.

Seeing Jiang Ying being bullied, he almost couldn't help but let go of the arrow.

If that is the case, it will be a big deal.

He wants to kill Yan Jianzhan, but he needs a good reason not to be suspected of motives.

First of all, let him be a barbarian in the northwest.

I still remember that in his previous life, Yan Jianzhan also ignored the instructions of King Khan, insisted on bringing his entourage to Suzhou City to have fun, and after exposing the identity of the barbarians, he killed dozens of innocent people in anger.

But at that time, Han Xu, the head of the Han family, was already dying, Han Chengji was no longer alive, and the power of the Han family fell into the hands of the second master, Han Rong, who ignored the face of the family, and was actually bribed by the Northwest Khan King, and took the initiative to make way for the Northwest Barbarian Army, so that the Northwest Barbarian Army could enter Beijing smoothly -

If it weren't for that, how could Yan Jianzhan have the opportunity to do that thing that was inferior to a bird/beast in the Liancheng Imperial Palace......

Thinking of this, Jin Qi's gaze was extremely cold.

In the previous life, although Yan Jianzhan later died in the hands of his subordinates, the matter had already been forged and it was too late.

In this life, he must personally slash this bird/beast before it has time to happen.

Yan Jianzhan Kankan came back to his senses from the aftermath of this slap, covered his hot cheeks, and retorted: "What the hell are you...... Who the fuck are you talking about! ”

No one has ever said he's ugly since he was a child!

Strictly speaking, no one dares to say that he is ugly!

The attendant looked at the man in horror - had his master been beaten mad!

Master! Ugly or not doesn't seem to be the point now?

You just got slapped by her!

This is the real shame! R1152
