Chapter 261: Good Words and Persuasion
He Baihu muttered, "Hero......"
After a while, he grinned and said, "I never thought that I could be called a hero by others in this life." www.biquge.info I always feel that it is the duty of a soldier to go into battle and fight, and even if I kill many Beihu people, I can't get Rongshi's life back. ”
He Baihu looked up to the sky and sighed, and suddenly smiled: "Thank you two for listening to me." Brother is right, I should indeed go and meet Rongshi's father. Hey, He'll visit the newspaper when the time comes, and I hope to chat with you......"
He was halfway through his sentence and couldn't go on. The county lord came to Beihu and Qin, and it is likely that he will not be able to set foot on the land of Darui again for the rest of his life, and how can he meet again in Puhua Town? Even if she could go back, how could the dignified county lord of Guangling and the only daughter of the Xia family easily meet a hundred households of a border army?
Who knows, Xiao Jing said without hesitation: "No problem." If Brother He comes, Xiao will definitely sweep the couch and wait. Although the wine in the capital is not as heroic and warm as the wine in the border town, it is soft and mellow, which makes people have an endless aftertaste. When you arrive, my brothers and I will take you all over the capital to drink, and you won't get drunk or return! ”
"Good!" He Baihu slapped his thigh hard: "In this way, I really have to leave early." When the errand is done, I will take leave to go to the capital to find my brother, and you don't want to lose this meal when the time comes! ”
Xiao Jing stretched out his hand to high-five him as an oath, and the two laughed at the same time.
Now that the work that needs to be done is done, Xiao Jing sent Xia Hanxue out of the house.
Miss Xia had just walked into her yurt when someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder from behind her.
"Brother He?" Xiao Jing was only stunned for a moment, and then said mysteriously: "But is there anything inconvenient for my daughter's family to hear, so you came to me alone after the county lord left?" ”
He Baihu, who looked embarrassed, smiled apologetically: "Brother is right. My good ...... Ahem, she bore me a son. The local bullies wanted to charge these poor people with half-hidden doors to collect 'peace money', so naturally they didn't want her to give birth, but no matter how coercive and tempting, she insisted on giving birth to the child, and now she is four years old. ”
Xiao Jing nodded. The child born by the lover is born out of wedlock, and it is definitely not a glorious thing in the current social environment. Even if Xia Hanxue is reasonable, gentle and kind, after all, she is also a lady who has received a strict traditional education, and she is likely to frown when she hears this "sensational" thing.
He Baihu continued: "The half of the silver that belongs to her can be used to give her a hundred taels to 'redeem herself'. She is not young, and the secret prostitute in the countryside can't earn a few dollars, and one hundred taels should be enough. For the rest, she has to trouble her brother to find a good place for her mother and son to live in, and stop being pickled by the bully. Hey, I'm ashamed to say that I've only seen him four or five times since the child called his father, and I guess he'll have to recognize me when he sees me again. ”
Xiao Jing patted his chest and said, "This matter is on me, I must find a clean place for Sister Hua and Ling Gongzi where no one disturbs." Brother He doesn't have to worry about money, although I am not a rich man, but I also have a little money, so he must make his mother and son live comfortably. ”
He Baihu wanted to thank him again, Xiao Jing straightened his face and said, "Why is the eldest brother so polite?" Don't you think of me as a brother? ”
"Haha, brother is right, this seems to be a raw part." He Baihu, who slowly put away his smiling face, looked at Xiao Jing and said earnestly: "Big brother still has a heartfelt word, I don't know if my brother is willing to listen to it?" ”
Xiao Jing smiled: "Big brother, say it, I'll listen." ”
He Baihu said lightly: "Brother and county lord...... Seems to have something to do with it? ”
Xiao Jing scratched his head, and said embarrassedly: "This is all seen by the eldest brother?" ”
He Baihu rolled his eyes and said, "The fool doesn't understand." I also came to see it when there were a lot of people before, and at that time you were still a little more restrained, but when we were the only ones left, the virtuous couple even did the thing of flirting in front of me, who doesn't know what the situation is? Even the gesture and nod are like a husband and a wife, can you be more explicit? ”
Hearing this, Xiao Jing said with a sad face: "Yes, I have known her for a long time, and you also know that she is the editor of my newspaper." I don't deny that I've admired the county lord for a long time, but I'm not like her yet......"
He Baihu laughed meaningfully twice, and did not say a word about Xiao Jing's defense. The authorities are fascinated and the bystanders are clear, although he has never married, he is also a person who has come over, and the county lord's children only need to look at it, and his heart is like a mirror.
The group of stinky boys outside were so envious that they were about to drool three feet long, and it was strange that the main owner was still so unconfident!
Although He Baihu was a little unbearable, he still said with a straight face: "The county lord marries Beihu far away, which is the will of the saint today. Jun has no jokes, this is the decision of the imperial court, and it is also the will of the country, no matter how much dissatisfaction you have, I am afraid that it will not be able to change it. Therefore, brothers must refrain and never do anything stupid. In that case, even if you can escape from Beihu, I am afraid that it will be difficult to return to the Great Rui Dynasty, although the world is big, there is no place for you anymore......"
Although he was very disapproving, but people persuaded him out of good intentions, Xiao Jing still said "um" lightly.
People in any age have their limitations. The vast majority of the people living under the rule of the feudal dynasty have a natural reverence for the imperial power, and the emperor in their eyes is the son of heaven who is "ordered by heaven", and is the supreme existence that everyone in the world must worship. Therefore, unless they are bewitched by the cult, ordinary people will never rise up until the last moment when "if they do not rebel again, they will starve to death."
The soldiers in the border towns are accustomed to seeing the national feud between the two countries, and they have also seen too much of the family hatred of the common people, and their feelings about the country and the court are different from ordinary people. There must be many people who despise imperial power in private and open their mouths to "emperor Lao'er", but there are also some people who are very loyal and patriotic, such as He Baihu.
There is nothing wrong with this simple and natural emotion. Compared with trolls who can only "move their mouths for a while", soldiers like He Baihu at least have the ideological level that people in this era should have, and this is enough. After all, no one can expect everyone to be like a time-traveler who is ideologically ahead of the times he has traversed.
However, because the matter of sending off relatives involves Xia Hanxue, Xiao Jing can only go in and out of his left ear and out of his right ear for this advice: Do you want him to watch his beloved woman marry a rough and arrogant young master of the Beihu tribe, and then die tragically in a foreign country like several other women who came to kiss?
Of course not!
