There was a commotion outside the door, and An Yong and they returned. I haven't seen each other for a month, An Yong and the stone have been much darker, and there is a sense of solidity like iron hitting steel, and it seems that I have gained a lot from a month's military camp life.

Jiang Anyi cooked in person, with the help of the stones, and a table full of wine and food was fragrant, which made people's appetite move. The military camp is usually not allowed to drink, Jiang Anyong smelled the aroma of wine and drooled first, and drank three glasses first, and then slowly ate the food and gossip.

"Can you choose the guard?" Jiang Anyi picked a piece of burnt beef tendon for Xinfei, he knew that his wife liked to eat it. Xinfei reciprocated a sweet smile for her husband.

"Brother-in-law is really eccentric." Siyu picks and chooses in the bowl regardless of the image, and she also likes to eat.

Jiang Anyong drank all the wine in the cup, spit out the wine and said: "It's almost, General Mei asked me to bring five hundred people first, all of them are good men, brother, or let's expand the guard battalion to five hundred, anyway, it's not bad for that money." ”

After a month of eating, drinking, and Lazar together, Jiang Anyong and his subordinates had a relationship. Shi obviously felt the same way, and said on the side: "Master, what Uncle Yong said is right, those soldiers have taught me a lot of things, and they are very capable. ”

The soldiers of the four major capitals are the elite of the Dazheng army, and Jiang Anyong once served as a soldier in the Anyang Palace, and the soldiers of the palace are more than a star and a half worse in comparison. Mei Hongmin is Zhu Zipu's cronies, and his subordinates are the elite of the elite, although they are regarded as outcasts, but the combat effectiveness of his subordinates is beyond doubt.

"The Son of Heaven has an order to place three hundred guards, even one more is against the holy order, do you want me to disobey the order?" Jiang Anyi glared at his younger brother angrily.

Jiang Anyong sighed, poured a full glass of wine, and drank it all. The stone did the same, sighed, reached out to take the wine jug, Jiang Anyi snorted, the stone was so frightened that he retracted his hand, which made Jiang Anyong laugh, and pleaded: "The stone is now a big guy, brother, you can open the favor and give him a cup to satisfy his hunger." ”

Xin Fei sighed and smiled on the side: "You, the master, are indeed too strict, and the stone has grown up." When I saw this kid back then, it wasn't much higher than the table, alas, seven years have passed. ”

"No, I still have a runny nose when I see him, and my sister and sister keep calling and begging me for snacks all day long. Alas, now it's taller than me. Siyu added with a smile.

Jiang Anyi was suddenly shocked and looked at the stone again. Seven years have passed, and the stone is no longer much shorter than himself, perhaps because the stone has been following him, so he doesn't realize that he has grown into an adult.

Picking up the wine jug with emotion, Jiang Anyi poured a glass of wine for the stone, and said: "Stone, you are an adult, from today onwards, the teacher will no longer restrict you from drinking, but you have to remember that wine is hurting your body, so you can't drink too much." ”

Shi cheered and said with a smile: "Thank you master, thank you master." ”

Jiang Anyi sandwiched a chicken leg for the stone, and said with a smile: "Since you are an adult, you don't want to call it stone and stone in the future, call your big name He Xigui, I chose this name for you as a teacher back then, and I hope that you can be a scholar in Toad Palace, but it's a pity that you learned martial arts and wasted this name." That's it, the road was chosen by yourself, and it's not easy to say anything as a teacher, and in two years, the master will propose to Mr. Zhang for you, so that your grandfather will have a heart. ”

Speaking of grandpa, Shi's eyes were a little red, two years ago, Grandpa Shi's passed away. After the stone family moved from Renzhou to Pingshan Town, under the care of the Jiang family, life was harmonious, and after a few years of hard work, the stone family added five new little guys. Grandpa Shi died of illness two years ago because he worked too hard when he was young, and his last words when he died were that he didn't see Shi get married.

Everyone was silent, and Siyu broke the calm and said, "Brother-in-law, you don't even have a waiter in this mansion, how can this work?" Senior sister is Miss Jiao, you can't let her sweep the floor, plaster, or empty the toilet. ”

Xin Fei smiled and twisted Siyu, and said angrily: "What about eating, it's so disgusting." It's you yourself who wants to live Miss Jiao's life, and you dare to put it on me, itchy. ”

The two laughed together. Jiang Anyi came to Huazhou from the capital, did not bring anyone out of the house, there is no inconvenience in living in the official residence alone, the government is not as good as ordinary people, it is not easy to keep guests, Guo Huaili and Yu Qingshan came to live in the inn in the first half of the month. Now that my wife, younger siblings and others have to move in, it is indeed inconvenient that there is no one to serve the cleaners.

By the way, Yu Qingshan was arranged to be a white straight (an extra official in the government, no monthly salary) in the government, and Jiang Anyi was ready to see his performance, and he was promoted to join the military from the ninth rank next year. Yu Qingshan is quite satisfied with this arrangement, whether he has a monthly salary or not is not important to him, it is fundamental to be able to change from an official to an official, Jiang Anyi can do this step even if it is very face-saving, you must know that Huang Dongquan is Jiang Anyi's cousin, but he is the head of Fuluo County, a small official who does not enter the stream.

The next day coincided with the end of the decade, and everyone discussed going to buy some maids, maids, and domestic servants. There is a tooth shop outside the western city of Aino Prefecture, which is mainly engaged in the appraisal and trading of cattle, sheep, horses, etc., and is also engaged in population and sales. Da Zheng Law prohibits human trafficking, except for sales.

As for whether it is voluntary or not, not many people are more serious, but the government stipulates that people under the age of 10 are not allowed to be sold, and even if they are sold voluntarily, they are determined to be snatched and deceited, and they will be punished with a cane, exile, or even hanging.

There is a river outside the west city, and the tooth line is set up according to the river, and the neighing of horses and cows can be heard from afar, and a smell of smell is in the nose.

Siyu covered her nose and said, "Why does this smell so bad, you can't throw away the clothes on your body when you walk around." ”

Xin Fei also frowned, obviously not wanting to enter.

There were a few idlers on the side of the road, and they saw Jiang Anyi and others dressed gorgeously, riding high-headed horses, and they seemed to be rich people. Immediately, a few people rushed over and said nonchalantly, "Son, what do you want to buy, I will take you to Zhou Da to keep you satisfied", "Madam, if you want to buy Yahuan, look for me, I am the most familiar with selling people", "Several masters, I have been working in the tooth shop for 20 years, and it is cheap and affordable to buy horses and cattle for safekeeping".

There is a saying in the rivers and lakes: the car and boat shop is not guilty, and it should be killed, if you believe these people, you will never stop if you don't deceive you so that your sleeves are empty. Jiang Anyi glanced at the people around him, found a young man who looked cleaner, used a whip, and said, "It's you." ”

The young man smiled and said, "Little Ma Xiaoying, serve a few young ladies and young ladies to your satisfaction." ”

Several unsuccessful gangsters changed their faces, hugging in front of the horse to ask for money, Jiang Anyong glared, waved the leather whip in his hand in the air, and shouted: "Don't get out of the way." ”

Seeing that Jiang Anyong and Shi Ma were both hanging bows and arrows on their sides, with knives straddling their waists, those few people estimated that these people were not easy to mess with, and they muttered and dispersed.

Jiang Anyi asked: "Ma Xiaoying, I want to buy a few maid women, where are I going?" ”

"A few masters, you have found the right person, the little cousin is the tooth of the seller, he has the best maid in Huazhou, please come with me." Ma Xiaoying led the way while trotting in front, and said endlessly: "The people in my cousin's hands are all carefully selected, and this entire Huazhou tooth store is not comparable to the goods in his hands, the little girl is beautiful, the servants are all quick and capable, and there are obedient domestic servants......"

In Ma Xiaoying's mouth, people became goods, and Jiang Anyi frowned when he heard it, and Xin Fei shouted: "Don't be long-winded, we will distinguish between good and bad." ”

Renshi is in the upper reaches of the river in Niumashi, and the river breeze is from top to bottom, so the taste here is not so strong. followed Ma Xiaoying into a row of bamboo sheds, and someone in front of the house greeted: "Childe, there is a beautiful girl ring here, you must like it", "Come and see, the beautiful young woman, both capable and warm the bed, kill two birds with one stone", "Look at this man, he is strong and strong, and he works one top three"......

Jiang Anyi's face was so gloomy that he was about to drip, the situation here reminded him of the situation when the creditor came to the door, if it wasn't for the fact that he was possessed by the demon master and his family background was changed, maybe Yan'er would also become a member of the human market.

"Third brother, third brother, I'm here to bring you big business." With Ma Xiaoying's shouting, a fat man walked out of the bamboo shack, squinted his eyes and looked at Jiang Anyi and the others, and said with a smile: "A few young ladies and young ladies, please inside." ”

Ma Xiaoying took the reward given by the fat man and turned away, and the fat man smiled and introduced himself: "The contemptible surname is Ma, and the son calls me Ma San." It's not Ma San's boasting, my manpower here is the best in the whole city, and no one can compare with my supply. ”

Pushing open a bamboo door, the fat man pointed in with his hand and said, "Childe, there are all little girls here, as long as four taels of silver each, it is cheap and cost-effective." Don't look at the young age of the little girl, buy it and raise it for two years, and ensure that she will be smart one by one. ”

Jiang Anyi saw that the house was covered with straw, and more than a dozen little girls huddled in a corner, looking at him in horror.

"Hurry up, stand in a row, let the uncle pick one, whoever is going to be picked will enjoy the blessings, don't hurry up." The fat man shouted, broke into the house and punched and kicked, and the little girls staggered like a flock of terrified quails, and supported each other to their feet.

The clothes are in tatters, the bones are as thin as wood, and the emptiness is so empty that it makes people panic. Jiang Anyi pointed to the short little girl in the corner and asked, "Little sister, don't be afraid, how old are you this year?" ”

"Eleven, I'...... Eleven years old. The little girl glanced at the fat man timidly, and when she saw that the fat man showed a fierce expression, she hurriedly responded.

"Why is an eleven so young?" Siyu said: "It's a head shorter than the stone back then, and I don't think it's even eight years old." ”

The fat man's face changed, and he said coldly: "Miss Childe, if you want to do business, don't ask questions, it's not good for anyone to ask too much." ”

Turning his face and yelling at the little girl, "Roll Lao Tzu to the corner, don't eat tonight." ”

The little girl retracted into the corner of the room with her mouth flattened, her head shrunk to her knees, and she did not dare to speak out with tears in her eyes.

Jiang Anyi was angry, the little girl seemed to have become Yan'er in an instant, there are too many poor people in this world, he can't help them all, but if he sees it, he must help.
