Chapter Eighty-Three: The Golden Thread

As expected, Yang Xiaoshan couldn't see Luo Meiying, she locked herself in the house alone and didn't see anyone.

"Go back, and when she is gone, I will persuade her for you." Luo Xuan didn't blame Xiaoshan, he also blamed himself for not asking clearly, so he went to propose marriage without authorization, and ended up in such an embarrassing field. Luo Xuan, this person is really generous, and Yang Xiaoshan is a little better in his heart.

After eating the closed door soup at Luo Meiying's side, Yang Xiaoshan knew that she was really sad, and he couldn't coax her out to meet after staying for a long time, so he could only go home and hope that she would be a little angry the next day.

But when Yang Xiaoshan came back the next day, Luo Meiying had already left Yong'an City with her guards, and handed over the others to Luo Xuan's management.

"Xiaoshan, my sister has such a temper, she can't wipe her face for a while, and I will write to persuade her in a few days. Don't worry, with her character she will come back one day. Although Luo Outline said so, he didn't actually think so in his heart, with Luo Meiying's arrogant character, I'm afraid it would be difficult to see Xiaoshan again.

Yang Xiaoshan was helpless, this ending was also something he didn't want to see, he broke a girl's heart for no reason, but Qiaomei was the object she had always planned to marry after all, so she could only wronged Meiying, hoping that she wouldn't blame herself all the time. Xiaoshan came out of Luo's outline, and he was about to be busy with his marriage, after all, there were only three days. The time is relatively tight, but fortunately, everything is prepared by the Holy Treasury, which saves me a lot of trouble.

================================

The splendid camp was stationed against the southern city wall, and the houses of the people in the city were not allowed to enter by the Taiping army. The king of the east gave an order in particular on this matter: the left foot is cut off with the left foot, the right foot is cut off with the right foot, and there is no forgiveness for entering the people's houses and killing them. Most of the Taiping army was left behind in the fortifications around the mountain to defend Yong'an. However, the splendid camp is a women's battalion and is in charge of logistics, so it is specially left outside the city wall of the south gate, where the sun is good and there are few idle people. Moreover, there were only women inside and outside the camp, and men were not allowed to enter unless specifically ordered to do so, or even stay outside the camp for long periods of time.

Although the Splendid Battalion does not participate in the war, the women here do not eat white rice. The Celestial Empire has just divided the kings, and various arrangements such as dresses and ceremonial guards in each royal palace need to be newly placed. Su Qiaomei sewed all kinds of royal flags during the day, and at night she had to make her own wedding dress.

Since she made a private agreement with Xiaoshan for life, Su Qiaomei began to prepare a wedding dress for herself. Every woman wants to wear her own wedding dress on her wedding day, and Su Qiaomei is no exception. Her female worker was not very good when she first joined the camp, but she was willing to put in the effort and was willing to learn, and now she is a veteran who can take charge on her own. Looking at her soon-to-be-completed wedding dress, Su Qiaomei felt very sweet in her heart.

"All that's missing is a few gold thread trims." She secretly wondered in her heart, she had been begging for this gold thread for several days, and the camp had been out of stock and had not received it, which was one of the few small pimples in her heart. This morning, Sanniang brought Xiaoshan's words to her, and she learned that she would be able to marry Xiaoshan in three days, and Su Qiaomei was even more immersed in happiness, so she didn't want those unpleasant things.

Su Qiaomei put the wedding dress on her chest and compared the size, fantasizing about her marriage, and then her face couldn't help showing a sweet blush.

The women's camp is usually busy, but in the free time after lunch and dinner, there are always some programs staged in the open space in the camp, and everyone entertains themselves and relieves the tense atmosphere.

Today's performance is the new camp sister-in-law Zhu, she used to be a folk entertainer who juggled on the street, and the husband and wife traveled south and north to make a living by juggling. It's a pity that once when his man was performing in the air, he missed for a while, broke his neck and died. Sister-in-law Zhu was left as a widow, and her source of livelihood was gone. Later, she joined the Taiping Army, because of her good skills, she was sent to the Splendid Camp as a guard, and she and Su Qiaomei were best friends in a tent.

Sister-in-law Zhu in the field dressed as He Xiangu, with her feet tied to wooden sticks and walking on stilts. She dressed up funny, sang while walking, and made some dangerous moves from time to time, which amused the female soldiers next to her to applaud vigorously, and laughter spread throughout the entire Splendid Battalion. After Sister-in-law Zhu's performance, she didn't see Qiao Mei, which made her very strange, Qiao Mei loves to watch the show the most, she usually comes, why didn't she come today?

When Sister-in-law Zhu came to the camp tent, she saw Su Qiaomei with tears on her face, sitting on the edge of the bed and worried.

"Why are you crying, the day after tomorrow is not your happy day, you should be happy." Sister-in-law Zhu was surprised.

"I went to get the gold thread again today, and the Ma Po in charge still said no, but I clearly saw that there was one on the shelf." Su Qiaomei was a little angry, and she had no choice but to return to the camp. The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and she cried when she thought that she couldn't finish the wedding dress before the wedding.

"That Ma Po is new here, and she doesn't know your relationship with Yang Xiaoshan. Sister Qiao, I didn't say you, you are too low-key, there are only a few good sisters in this camp who know that you are Yang Xiaoshan's daughter-in-law, you really have resources and will not use them! "Sister-in-law Zhu is a straightforward person.

"I'm a hard-working person, I can't afford that shelf, and besides, Xiaoshan doesn't like to be high-profile, and I don't want to cause trouble for Xiaoshan." Su Qiaomei wiped away her tears and said slowly.

"You're just too honest, your marriage is decided, what are you afraid of? I'll go with you to ask for it, I don't believe that Ma Po still dares not to give it? Sister-in-law Zhu said indignantly, her personality is diametrically opposed to Qiaomei, and her tone and actions are very pungent and spicy.

Sister-in-law Zhu dragged Qiaomei to the warehouse in the camp.

"Why are you here again, didn't you tell you that there is no gold thread?" Ma Pozi, who manages the warehouse, looked impatient, she has long been annoyed by Qiaomei, this woman is not open, if she had bribed some silver, she would have been able to receive it a long time ago.

"None? What are those? Sister-in-law Zhu pointed to a few rolls of gold thread on the shelf and said sharply.

Ma Pozi glanced at Sister-in-law Zhu and said disdainfully: "This is not something that a person of your level can receive!" ”

"What do you say? Do you want to ask Sanniang to collect it? "Sister-in-law Zhu is angry, Sanniang and Qiaomei have always been very good, and they are the managers of the Splendid Camp. Since Qiao Mei didn't want to mention Xiaoshan, she would move Sanniang out first and press this Ma Pozi.

"Sanniang usually can, but not at this time! These gold threads are for the West Princess! Ma Pozi raised her head, as if she was the Queen of the West, she couldn't put it on a good score, and the shelf couldn't be higher.

"So many gold threads are enough for the West Wangniang, don't pull the tiger skin and pull the banner." Sister-in-law Zhu was angry and said loudly.

"I can't say enough, what can you do?" Ma Pozi thought to herself, just because you still want the golden thread of white-collar workers, don't dream.

"Do you know who Su Qiaomei next to me is?" Sister-in-law Zhu pointed at Su Qiaomei.

"Who is it? Can it be bigger than the West Princess? Ma Pozi glanced at Su Qiaomei, dressed very plainly, although she looked delicate, it seemed that she was the wife of the chief at most.

"Big is big, but her husband is Yang Xiaoshan, the righteous son of the East King!" Sister-in-law Zhu shook off Qiaomei's hand to stop her, and it was really not good to deal with people of such a force without showing her background.

"Impossible, how is it possible?" Ma Pozi was a little panicked when she heard the name of the East King, there was no one in the whole army who was not afraid of the East King, all the death sentences were issued by the East King, as long as the East King wanted to punish the people, no one could stop them. Although the Taiping army had five kings, the eastern king was the most feared. Yang Xiaoshan's fame is also very loud in the whole army, especially in the minds of young people, he is simply an idol to worship.

"It's all time, take it out!" Sister-in-law Zhu took out the Dongwang token given to her by Xiaoshan from Qiaomei's waist and shook it in front of Ma Pozi, "See?" Look closer! ”

"Hey, hey! It turned out to be a marquise, old and dizzy, forgive sins, forgive sins. When Ma Pozi saw the token, she was so frightened that she lost her soul, because she was so frightened that she began to slap herself with a bow left and right, for fear that they would use the token to punish themselves.

"I just need a roll of gold thread, you don't have to be afraid, I won't tell the East King." Su Qiaomei saw the overly frightened Ma Pozi, and she couldn't bear it.

"Okay, I'll get it for you right away." Ma Pozi neatly stuffed four or five rolls of gold thread, "If you want anything else, just tell me, and I'll send it to you." ”

"One volume is enough, and the rest will be left to the West Wangniang. Don't be so polite. "Su Qiaomei doesn't need that much, a roll of gold thread is enough.

Out of the warehouse, Sister-in-law Zhu was still unhappy, and complained: "Sister Qiao, you are too good at talking, just let this snobbish mother-in-law go?" ”

"The Splendid Camp is originally a place with complicated relationships, and I can't help Xiaoshan with anything else, what I can do is not to make trouble for him. That's all I can do, so what if I get some grievances? "Su Qiaomei is thinking about Xiaoshan.

"That Yang Xiaoshan is really blessed to marry you, such a good daughter-in-law is hard to find with a lantern!" Sister-in-law Zhu sighed, if she is a marquise, then she doesn't show it, who dares to provoke me to destroy her!
