It was the height of summer, and the blazing sun was scorching the land south of the Yangtze River. A few days ago, a heavy rain, only made the Dingshu town on the side of the river water rose a lot, the riverside wharf, this will be full of ships from all over the country to transport goods, Dingshu town has always been famous for pottery, especially its purple sand is famous for hundreds of miles, and because of this, it will attract merchants from all over the world, but at this time, because of the sudden war, most of these merchants are stranded here, these merchants from afar are mostly in the inn, lamenting that the situation is not quiet, but the eyebrows inevitably have some expectations. It's a bit complicated, but almost everyone can understand what it means.

For those dolls in the town, they naturally don't know the complicated and chaotic mood of the adults at this time.

It was the height of summer, when the sun was shining, and those dolls would not let go of such a day, but under the raging sun, the rain quickly dried, and the ground after the water was wet and muddy, and the barefoot dolls ran around the river barefoot, and then jumped into the river, enjoying the coolness of the river.

Because the weather is too hot, so except for these excited children, everyone else is lazy and can't lift their spirits, the busy pottery kiln in the past will also be deserted, when the war is in chaos, the pottery kiln has also stopped, the potters are either pushing pai gow or in the cool shadow of the house in front of the door and behind the house. Only the intellectuals hidden in the trees screamed endlessly, and the people who really screamed were upset.

"I know this, there's still ...... end"

His brows were locked sharply, Shi Lei hatefully dropped the books in his hand, and he was restless in his heart, he only wanted to cut down all the dozen or so big willow trees next to the dock of the kiln with one sword. I don't know if it was the current situation that stopped the kiln, or because the weather was too hot and dry, so he felt so annoyed.

"Cut it all down......"

With such a shout, Shi Lei, who was the owner of the kiln, walked out of the door angrily, and when he went out, he even took an ax in his hand.

The breeze blows in the bay in front of the kiln, blowing the willow trees on the shore of the bay, in fact, the bay area is cooler than other places, because there is an inlet formed here, about five or six acres of area, and there are willows and mulberry trees all around, and it has always been an excellent place to enjoy the coolness.

However, the potters in the kiln will not come here to escape the heat and enjoy the coolness, because although this is the wharf of the kiln, it is also the residence of the Shi family. In the house near the inlet, different from other places, there is a lotus flower planted here, the lotus grows very vigorously, the lotus leaves are green, and the house near the bay, the wooden window is provoked, the tulle is blown by the breeze, by the window, a young woman wearing a plain dress, is reading a book by the window, the woman's green silk, holding a small bun of the woman in the pavilion, a hairpin is inserted obliquely in the hair, lining the beautiful face, only showing a little girl's beauty.

Xu was tired of reading the book, she sat on her real body, stretched lazily, and at this moment, she saw Shi Lei walking towards the willow tree by the bay with an axe, and her pretty face suddenly showed a smile.

"This daddy, it's really ......"

As she spoke, she closed the book and left the room.

"Still barking, still barking, Lao Tzu has to cut down all this tree today......"

With an ax in his hand, when he was about to make a move, Shi Lei listened to the words coming from behind him.

"Daddy, how did this provoke you?"

Shi Zhao, who had already walked over, looked at his angry father with a smile.

"It's annoying, Zhao'er, didn't you think they were noisy before, but now Daddy has cut down all the trees......"

Saying that, Shi Lei raised his hand and cut down the tree, but Shi Zhao just looked at him and asked softly.

"Daddy, are you really annoyed by this?"

"Not for this, but for ......"

Shi Lei's brows jumped, he originally wanted to refute his daughter, but he finally threw the axe to the ground, and his face was full of frustration.

"I, I, hey......"

Looking at his father's dejected appearance, Shi Zhao approached and looked at his father and asked.

"At that time, Zhao'er was still young, and her father was bent on taking care of Zhao'er, and now that her daughter has grown up and can take care of herself, if her father is interested...... What's the point of going? ”

"Zhao'er, you don't know!"

Shaking his head vigorously, looking at the water surface of the river bay, Shi Lei frowned and said,

"If all those commanders are loyal and righteous, why is this the case in this world?"

Looking at his daughter in front of him, Shi Lei sighed again.

"Back then, my father took you out of the capital and went all the way south, originally thinking, even if the north of the river is nothing, at least, at least the Nanjing court can protect the south of the Yangtze River, but, who would have thought ......"

Shaking his head and sighing, Shi Lei's words were full of disappointment with the court, and when he looked at the full clothes on his daughter's body, he was dazzling, but he only felt a sense of sadness.

"Dad, if you don't go, how do you know that the commanders of the troops are all loyal?"

Looking at his father's lonely appearance, Shi Zhao, who knew that he had always had a heart disease in his heart, continued to persuade.

"Besides, if he had something in case in the future, wouldn't Daddy regret his hesitation today? What's more, my daughter heard that the name of General Zhu's loyalty and righteousness stationed in Changzhou is well known to the world, and besides, his father only went to deliver a letter, even if he is in vain, what does it matter? As long as Daddy does his best, how will he regret it in the future? ”

Being persuaded by his daughter like this, Shi Lei nodded involuntarily, but looking at his daughter, he suddenly shook his head and said,

"No, this, this war is in chaos, how can Daddy let you stay alone in the kiln, this world is not quiet, people's hearts are unpredictable, in case ......"

For Shi Lei, there is nothing more important than his daughter, for him, he can put everything aside, but he must protect his daughter's safety.

"Daddy, then the daughter will go with you!"

As if worried about his father's opposition, Shi Zhao hurriedly said.

"Father, don't you often say that your daughter's skills are no longer afraid of ordinary three or five men, and your daughter will definitely not drag you down!"

Suddenly, Shi Zhao's voice changed, and his delicate and soft voice immediately became a little hoarse, all like a man.

"Moreover, child, I also want to meet Zhu Mingzhong, who "will be Chinese for the rest of his life, and Ming for his death", and take a look at what this "inch Dan is heavy, and seven feet is light." "What the hell is it?"

If it weren't for Shi Zhao's women's clothes and beautiful appearance, just this hoarse voice that was indistinguishable from ordinary men, who could tell that she was a daughter?

"Dad, let's just take a look, the child promises, no one can see the flaw!"

In his father's hesitation, Shi Zhao hurriedly pretended to be pitiful, looking at him, his eyes were full of eagerness.

The appearance of his daughter fell in Shi Lei's eyes, although he was unwilling to take risks with him, but as if a ghost made a god, he couldn't help but nodded, perhaps, in his opinion, his daughter might be safer to follow him......
