Sook-jin gets a message from Shoko that she is going to take her to the elm tree nest today.

After making "Nai Mazi" early in the morning, he hurriedly came to greet Bao Suzhen, and then rushed into the house and picked himself up. She first combed her hair into a single braid and coiled it into a beautiful peony knot on the top of her head.

Remove the baggage from the roof that has not been touched for three years, and take out a six-wheeled pistol wrapped in old clothes, a dart bag, and a delicate Ingisha knife. She skillfully disassembled the pistol, took the oil lamp and wiped the gun, quickly reloaded the bullet, twisted her body and gestured, and a smile of satisfaction crossed her face.

He took out a bag from the cabinet and pulled out a pair of yellow suede shoes. He put the knife in the scabbard on the outside of his boots, looked at it comfortably for a while, and then quickly took off his coat and changed into a newly made black tight jacket and black bloomers.

After looking in the mirror, he quickly picked up the pistol strap and tied it around his waist. He looked down at it, and a sweet smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth. She wore this outfit for four or five years. However, I haven't moved it for three years.

After being stunned for a moment, he quickly pulled it over, tied a black cloak with purple and red lace on his shoulders, picked up the mirror and took a look, and then sat comfortably and satisfactorily on the edge of the kang and was stunned.

Xiangzi got up early in the morning, was pestered by the Liu brothers for a while, and hurriedly rode out of the compound.

He ate a bowl of tofu brain and two fritters on the way, and then rode out of the city.

At this time, the sun in the east had lazily climbed up the treetops. A piece of golden light was splashed over, and in front of Xiangzi's eyes, a clear and cheerful projection was displayed.

Xiangzi was happy in his heart, let go of the horse's hooves, ran all the way with the shadow, and before he knew it, he had reached the willow river.

Ma Zhan's family had been there, and before he could get off the horse, the diligent flower barked and rushed out of the courtyard gate. Immediately after, it was Ma Zhanquan who rushed to the half-open courtyard gate, probing his brain.

Seeing that it was Xiangzi, he hurriedly shouted at the dog, and greeted him with a smile on his face. He stretched out his hand to take the reins of the horse and said, "Oh, I heard that you were coming today, but I didn't expect it to be so early." ”

Xiangzi smiled at him and said, "When I go to Shuanghe to do business, I will have a banquet by the way, and I will come over early." ”

Entering the house, Ma Zhanquan let Xiangzi go to the kang while shouting to ask Bao Suzhen to make tea quickly.

Ma Zhanquan took the bowl of tea from his wife's hand, personally delivered it to Xiangzi, and said with emotion: "This time, thanks to Assistant Guo's sacrifice of his life, we were able to escape the catastrophe, you are really our benefactor." ”

As he spoke, he bowed deeply to Shoko.

Xiangzi hurriedly grinded his body and got off the kang, stretched out his hand to help him up, and said, "It's all as it should be, don't take it too seriously." ”

As he was talking, he saw a clever little head poking out of the door, and then ran into the distance with a brisk footstep. After a while, I saw a little girl about three years old with two pigtails on her head, snuggling up and holding Shuzhen's hand, and timidly entered the house.

When Shoko saw Sook-jin's outfit, she smiled happily at her and gave her a thumbs up.

Ma Zhanquan stood on the ground, stared at Shuzhen in a daze, and said squeaky for a long time: "In the past three years, I have seen this dressed woman in Ma Zhongying's camp. At that time, they all covered their faces with black veils, wouldn't you be too? ”

Shuzhen smiled at him and said, "Da Laozi, I am one of those girls, the ninth in line, and they all call me the ninth aunt." ”

When Ma Zhanquan heard this, he let out a long sigh and said, "I'll just say, three years ago, when I saw you for the first time, I didn't look like an ordinary person." And the white horse, which is not like the cattle fed by the farmer's family. ”

Shuzhen smiled apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, big man, I haven't told you the truth all these years." This time, you'll be scared again. ”

Ma Zhanquan sighed lightly and said, "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay." This time, thanks to Assistant Guo. ”

After a pause, he continued: "County Magistrate Liu told me everything, and you are now half a member of the Yamen." Follow Assistant Guo well, and you will have a good future in the future. ”

As she was talking, Shuzhen's waist stretched out a small head again. A pair of big furry eyes sparkled at Shoko.

Xiangzi smiled at her and winked, as if she suddenly remembered something, hurriedly took out a paper bag from her pocket, and said with a smile: "You see that I patronize and talk, and forget all the candy I bought for the baby." ”

As he spoke, he opened the paper packet to reveal a pile of colorful sugar cubes. Xiangzi took out a piece, stretched out his hand to the little guy, and said, "Eat candy, I bought it for you." ”

The little guy instinctively licked his lips and turned his head to look at Shuzhen.

Shuzhen caressed her face lovingly, and said with a smile: "Take it, Da Laozi bought it for you." ”

The little guy timidly took the candy, looked at Shuzhen again, and then stuffed it into his mouth.

Sookjin bent down and whispered a few words in her ear. I saw the little guy raise his head, his eyes flashed, and he said in a childish voice: "Thank you, Da Laozi." ”

Somehow, Shoko always felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy with the little guy. He turned around and grinded down the kang, bent down and picked up Xiao Haiqi. I took a packet of candy on the table, stuffed it into the little guy's arms, and said with a smile: "If you like to eat, I will buy you more to eat." ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand on the little guy's nose and gently scraped it, and the little guy actually "giggled" at him.

I heard that Shuzhen was going to do things for the yamen, and there were a lot of men and women at the gate of the courtyard who were watching the excitement.

When Shuzhen and Xiangzi walked out of the courtyard with their horses one after the other, the crowd couldn't help but let out bursts of "tsk" exclamations.

Shuzhen greeted the crowd generously, then flew on the horse and chased towards Xiangzi.

At this time, the sun was already so white that it began to roast people.

Walking due west, the invisible beam of light shines on the back, and it feels warm and comfortable.

After walking silently for a while, Shuzhen glanced at Xiangzi with a side face and whispered: "Xiao Haiqi is very close to you, and she doesn't let you hug you in ordinary people." ”

Seeing that Xiangzi just pursed his lips and smiled, and didn't say anything, he tilted his head and said, "Who do you think Xiao Hai looks like?" ”

Shoko smiled without thinking and said, "Of course it's like her." ”

Shuzhen hesitated and bit her lip, and muttered in a low voice, "Didn't you see her look like you?" ”

When Xiangzi heard this, his heart shook violently, and then, turning his horse's head, looking a little excited and nervous, said, "You mean, that baby looks like me?" ”

Shuzhen smiled poignantly at him and said, "Xiao Haiqi is your baby, I know it's been more than two months." I really couldn't help it, so I agreed to marry Sherba. I can't let the baby be born without being big, and let the family live by fingers. ”

Shoko's heart shook again. looked at Shuzhen guiltily, and said with some excitement: "I'm sorry for making you suffer." ”

Shuzhen, looking overjoyed, said with a smile: "I still have to thank you, there is a small sea retreat, and there will be hope in the days to come." ”

Xiangzi sighed lightly and asked hesitantly, "Later, you didn't have another one?" ”

Shuzhen smiled sadly and said, "Sherba dug charcoal and bruised his waist, and became a half-faced. The man's little thing, he can't do it at all, we just live together. ”

Shoko listened, glanced at her affectionately, and muttered in a low voice, "It's really hard for you." ”

Shuzhen pursed her lips and smiled, blushing and said, "That's worry-free, I don't plan to give my body to others again." ”

Xiangzi's heart was hot, and he reached out and gently hugged Shuzhen's shoulder. said warmly: "Don't worry, you two mothers, there will be me in the future." ”

The two kept warm on the horse for a while, and Xiangzi seemed to suddenly remember something, smiled gently at Shuzhen, and said, "We have to hurry, let's let the horse run for a while, right?" ”

Shuzhen smiled sweetly at him, didn't say anything, bent down and clamped his legs, and the snowball flew out like an arrow from a string.

Xiangzi's chrysanthemum blue was not ambiguous, and he raised his four hooves and pushed it up.

Two treasure horses, first you a while ago, and I didn't give in to each other a while ago. Later, friendship went hand in hand. Sook-jin and Shoko also send each other a sweet smile from time to time.
