The impact of Dou Jiande's patrol not only spread to all strata of Xiangguo County, but even Cheng Mingzhen and Du Juan, who have always been calm, are inevitably affected emotionally. Sometimes I want to say a few words, but when I look at each other, I quickly turn the wrong way. Sometimes I wanted to ask the other person something, but when I saw the other person's face, I instinctively looked at him.

is already an old husband and wife, and it is impossible for the two of them to be unaware of the embarrassing atmosphere around them. But neither of them knew how to resolve it. First, after all, rumors are just rumors, and in fact nothing has been born until now. Second, the husband and wife did not make any mistakes in this matter, and they brought it up for no reason, but it gave people the feeling that there was a ghost in their hearts.

"If only Sister Liu'er were still alive!" When I'm alone, Cuckoo often thinks stupidly, "She'll be able to teach me a good idea!" ”。 She has no hatred for Liu Er now, after all, Liu Er was only worried about Cheng Mingzhen at that time, but she didn't start to "steal". And now, others don't just think about their husbands. It is not an exaggeration to describe it in four words.

Indeed, Dou Jiande only said a sentence in front of Cheng Mingzhen, and did not make it clear that he would definitely let his sister marry. And with the friendship between Du Juan himself and Dou Hongxian, the latter may not be cheeky enough to snatch the sister's husband. But in addition to Dou Hongxian, what about Zhang Hongxian, Zhou Hongxian, and Li Hongxian? How they guarded. After all, the importance of Xiangguo County to Dou Jiajun is self-evident at the moment, and using a woman to tie Cheng Mingzhen to his chariot is a good way for Dou Jiande once and for all. Moreover, Dou Jiande also said a very cruel fact, the husband and wife have been married for many years, and they have nothing to do.

On the topic that the two have never had children. Old Du Scar was nagging with the cuckoo behind his back. He even did not hesitate to be cheeky, and secretly suggested that his daughter cultivate a henchman to warm Cheng Mingzhen's bed, and then wait for the child to be born and then snatch it back to raise this crooked method. After all, heroes are amorous and easy to grow old, rather than waiting for her husband to cry and wipe her tears when she changes his mind in the future, it is better to take the initiative to find a way to fix his pet.

As soon as this idea was proposed, it was rejected by Cuckoo with hard words, and Cuckoo felt that the husband and wife had shared hardships and hardships, and the husband was by no means the kind of rat who saw things differently. Secondly, if her husband really changes his mind one day, she would rather be an abandoned woman than use crooked means to solve it. The false feelings that are maintained in that way are only better than nothing, but they trample on their dignity completely.

It would be nice if Liu Er was still alive. In Du Juan's eyes, this sister who once embroidered a wedding dress for herself has enough wisdom to resolve all family crises. She will use all kinds of methods that not only make the husband and wife not feel embarrassed, but also further increase the feelings between each other, to drive all the peeps away. Let the fox spirits be ashamed of themselves, and they don't dare to think about it from now on, let alone be cheeky and recommend themselves to the pillow.

But the current reality is that Liu Er has been dead for many years. The willow tree planted by the cuckoo next to her grave also grew to the thickness of a man's arm, swaying like the hostess of the year. So, most of the time, the cuckoo had to sit there alone, angry, and weak.

Like his wife, Cheng Mingzhen was also annoyed at this moment. It turned out that he was busy all day long, lest he would be swallowed up by the troubled times if he was not careful. Now, the threat from Dou Jiande's side has basically been lifted. In the short term, new threats will not be born. As soon as the tense nerves relaxed, the whole person immediately lost his direction.

Regarding the fact that the two have never had children, he is not too anxious. Sun Huozi, who is known as a national player, said that the poison in the cuckoo's wedding night was very domineering, although it was no different from a normal person on the surface, but the wounds in the body took a long time to recover. Besides, it is a very dangerous thing for a woman to give birth to a child, and it is better to be a little later and more mature than to die because of her weak body. Cheng Mingzhen and his wife are only in their early twenties, and they are not too old, so there is no need to listen to other people's nonsense.

What gave Cheng Mingzhen the most headache was Dou Jiande's performance in Zhouzhou. How so? This Dou Wangye, the King of Changle, now has all the qualities to become a hero. Wise, generous, with a round wrist and a discerning eye. However, he lacks the roundness and steadiness that a superior person should have. Sometimes, the more he wants to show his kingly style, the more it makes onlookers feel like a thorn in the back. Take him asking about his own family affairs, in fact, Dou Jiande did this just to show his intimacy with himself, as well as his satisfaction and respect for his subordinates. However, because it only considered the unilateral intention and did not take into account the feelings of the listener himself, this gesture of goodwill had the opposite effect.

Cheng Mingzhen knew that Dou Jiande might not mean that he wanted to shoehorn Dou Hongxian into himself. Cheng Mingzhen also knew that after Dou Jiande listened to his statement, it was estimated that he would not move to install women next to him for a long time. Cheng Mingzhen even knew that Dou Jiande's performances in various tuntian points did not really mean to declare his sovereignty over Xiangguo County. And even if it does, it's not incomprehensible. After all, Xiangguo County is still in a semi-independent state, and Dou Jiande needs to do something to consolidate his rule. He is just trying to do a good job of a prince's part, in a decent and impartial manner. But Cheng Mingzhen can't guarantee what the other people around Dou Jiande, as well as the other people who are always paying attention to Dou Jiajun, think.

If nothing is expected, Cheng Mingzhen guesses that the news that Dou Jiande is trying to win him over by marrying his sister will spread to an unimaginable extent. And the news about the separation of Dou Jiajun and the camp in Zhaozhou will also follow. For Dou's potential opponents, this means a possible opportunity. For the brothers in Xiangguo County and Zhaozhou Camp, who had just settled down, it meant a risk that could be pounced on at any time.

How big of this risk that may arise in the future will evolve, and it is not within his control, Cheng Mingzhen does not know. What should he do to dispel Dou Jiande's suspicion of the Zhaozhou camp without harming his own fundamental interests, Cheng Mingzhen didn't know. He was even a little confused about whether his choice to join Dou Jiande at that time was too eager. Although it was true that everyone had no way back at that time, it seems that it is very difficult to say whether Dou Jiande's big tree is reliable or not.

Compared with these mysteries on the outside, the little things in his own family are a little insignificant in Cheng Mingzhen's eyes. It's not just this time that his wife is stupid, when she just got married, didn't she always think about whether she was worthy of herself or not? Now, after so many years, the life of the two is not the same. It can't be said that there is no contradiction at all, but they definitely regard each other as the last resort. I don't believe that the other party will turn his back, and I don't believe that the other party will fall easily.

Despite this, every time he sees the resentment in Du Juan's eyes, Cheng Mingzhen still feels nervous. He didn't know if he should take a special night out to explain to his wife that he was not in a hurry to make a little Cheng Mingzhen or a little cuckoo. In addition to relaying his reply to Dou Jiande's proposal, he didn't know how to discuss the issue of concubine with his wife. Gambling and swearing seems to be a bit redundant, but it is easy for the cuckoo to bear the name of "jealous woman". After all, from the original Zhang Da to the current Du Scar, as well as the various county commanders and governors of Xiangguo County, everyone has three wives and four concubines. Men, as long as you know in your heart, there is no need to talk about everything and put it in the open.

Don't break it with the cuckoo and crumple it and confess it, his wife's haggard face in the past two days is obviously in his eyes. It's very funny to think about this, my wife turned out to be such a strong and free person, but she was entangled in such a trivial matter. In fact, the so-called Zhang Hongxian, Dou Hongxian, and Li Hongxian are just tools to win over relationships. If someone tries to stuff a woman into herself every time, she will be worried, and she will not know how many days of sorrow she will have in the future!

Just when the husband and wife were at the end of their respective mysteries, Wang Ermao came back. This guy who has changed his name again, called himself Wang Qiang, and the word is great has not yet entered the back hall, and the shouting has spread throughout the entire yamen, "What's the matter, why are you bowing your head one by one early in the morning, like you have been hungry for half a month." Didn't the head of the church pay you? Or the seven masters deliberately withheld food! ”

"This guy has become a county magistrate, and he still has no shape!" Cheng Mingzhen heard the shouting, so he had to temporarily raise his head in the pile of cases, scolded with a smile, and then instructed his relatives who were waiting for him, "Let the kitchen clean up a table of meals and send them directly to the back house." Inform your wife and tell her that Wang Ermao is back. By the way, inform my father-in-law and Uncle Sun Liu, and invite them to come over for lunch together. ”

He said yes and trotted away. The sound of hurried footsteps shook the already dull back house. Wang Ermao's footsteps followed closely outside the study, and there was a faint hint of joke in the shouting, "Shout, there is really a shelf to be a county guard, and I don't even want to take a step out of the door." If you don't want to talk to me, I'll just leave. I'll report to the county keeper in the yamen another day! ”

"Get in here before it's too late. Don't you see that Lao Tzu is busy! Cheng Mingzhen grabbed a curtain and smashed it through the door curtain before it landed, and it was already neatly copied in Wang Ermao's hand. Spring and autumn, a good book, it is said that Guan Yunchang liked to read this book the most. What, does it tell you how to defend Jingzhou? ”

"You don't have a serious word!" Cheng Mingzhen scolded with a smile. Raising his hand, he pointed to the stool in front of him, "Sit down, the tea will be delivered soon." Did Xie Yingdeng reply? What does Xu Maogong mean? ”

"What else can it mean, dozens of warehouses of grain are held in your hands, and if you don't deal with it, you can only look at it and mold. It's better to make a deal with us and take what you need! Wang Ermao sat down in front of Cheng Mingzhen with a grin and replied with a smile. However, it is more troublesome to transport grain, and it costs a lot to take 6 roads, and if you take the canal, there is just a Bowang Mountain in the middle. Xu Maogong said, Wang Deren and Fang Yanzao's level, we have to figure out our own way! ”

"Bowang Mountain?" When it came to business, Cheng Mingzhen's mind immediately became clear, "Xu Maogong is going to borrow a knife to kill people, this guy is really delicate enough." He also holds the title of the Liyang Governor of the Wagang Army, and when he gives a warrant, Wang Deren dares to squeak! ”

"Do you have to bargain, of course. Now we have something to ask him for. He has so much grain in his hands that he doesn't have to worry about having no buyers! Wang Ermao smiled, knowing Xu Maogong's thoughts.

"This guy!" Cheng Mingzhen frowned, and commented with his teeth pursed, "Li Mi planted Fang Yanzao in Bowang Mountain, which is equivalent to inserting a knife in his back Xu Maogong. This guy doesn't want to pull out his knife, but let us help him bear a notoriety! ”

"Hehe, I guess too!" Wang Ermao echoed with a smile, "But we should also settle the accounts with Wang Deren and Fang Yanzao, otherwise, we will also cheapen those two guys!" ”

"Hmm!" Cheng Mingzhen was noncommittal to Wang Ermao's words. The matter of the Zhaozhou battalion being swallowed up by the Dou family's army, among which Wang Deren and Fang Yanzao are two "great contributors", and now everyone happens to be holding back their evil anger and it is impossible to find an outlet It is not bad. It's just that you should be cautious in the choice of methods, neither can you make a bamboo basket empty of water, nor can you make Dou Jiande jealous.

Just as he was hesitating, the cuckoo had already walked in with a tea set in person. poured one for Cheng Mingzhen and Wang Ermao, and then stood quietly by the window and listened to the two.

This performance was very different from the cuckoo in Wang Ermao's memory, so he raised his head in surprise and asked in surprise: "What's wrong with my sister-in-law today?" The eyelids are swollen, could it be that he was bullied by the godhead? ”

"Not serious!"

"It's none of your business!" When Cheng Mingzhen and his wife heard this, they hurriedly scolded in a low voice. They secretly glanced at each other, and they both felt so embarrassed.

Wang Ermao didn't care if others were embarrassed or not, he laughed a few times, pursed his lips and quipped, "I think my sister-in-law is drinking dry vinegar!" You can't really see it. Someone is staring, which means that Xiao Jiu has the ability, sister-in-law, you had a vision back then. If Brother Xiao Jiu is like me, he will not be welcomed wherever he goes. Sister-in-law, weren't you blind back then? ”

A joke is like poking a hole in the dark clouds, revealing the sunshine, and the atmosphere between the husband and wife that has not been embarrassing or embarrassing for days has disappeared without a trace. "A dog's mouth can't spit out ivory!" The cuckoo took a sip and got up to leave. Wang Ermao chased after him, and said reluctantly: "Sister-in-law, you are stupid." In this back hall is your one-third of an acre, who are afraid of her? What Zhang Hongxian, Li Hongxian, Wang Hongxian, even if the emperor's father-in-law wants to marry, don't you have to call your sister? No matter who is behind her, your identity as an eldest woman is here, and if she is not pleasing to the eye, the stick will be beaten out. Could it be that the emperor is lenient, and he can still manage how the eldest wife of a Taoist courtier can manage the house? ”

Finishing cloth.
