Chapter Ninety-Three: Meet the Bride
Zhao Zizhong led everyone to continue collecting stones, and the afternoon passed quickly. The sun slowly sets in the west, and the golden sunset fills the western sky.
At this time, a team approached the entrance of the valley, and Zhao Zi raised his eyes to see that it was the escorts who had gone out to sea for training had returned. After Zhai Xiaoshan saw Zhao Zizhong, he quickly ran over, saluted Zhao Zizhong, and said loudly: "Report!" The convoy has finished today's training and is about to bring it back to the camp, please instruct the leader! ”
Zhao Zizhong smiled and asked, "Xiaoshan, how does it feel to sit on a sea boat?" How are the players doing? ”
Zhai Xiaoshan said with a wry smile: "It's not good, after getting on the boat and going to sea yesterday, more than half of the people were seasick very seriously and vomited. When they returned, many did not even eat dinner. Today the situation is slightly better, but there are still quite a few people who continue to get seasick. ”
"You have to continue to train at sea, and it will be fine in a few days. Only by constantly honing them will the players gradually adapt to the bumps in the sea. In the future, everyone will have to learn how to fight at sea, and after a few days, after the bed crossbow is built, it will be installed on the ship as soon as possible. You are a sharpshooter who needs to master the shooting method of the bed crossbow as soon as possible and then teach it to others. ”
Zhai Xiaoshan was very excited, he puffed up his chest and said loudly: "Guarantee to complete the task." ”
Zhao Zizhong asked again: "Xiaoshan, you are going to get married tomorrow, how are you preparing?" What else is needed? ”
Zhai Xiaoshan was a little shy, scratched his head and whispered: "Steward Cui has sent me a lot of things, I see that it is almost there, there is really nothing missing." ”
"Have you seen the bride in the past two days?"
Zhai Xiaoshan's face turned red instantly, and he shook his head and said, "I haven't seen it." ”
Zhao Zizhong smiled and said: "That's it, you take the team back, and then go to the cafeteria to find me, and I'll take you to her after eating, you can communicate and see what else she has for the wedding." ”
Zhai Xiaoshan whispered: "Chief, isn't this okay?" People say that the two can't see each other before the wedding. ”
"We don't have those arguments here, it's all unreasonable customs, you don't have to pay attention to it. Look for me in the cafeteria in a moment, and I'll take you to meet the bride. ”
Zhai Xiaoshan agreed to come down and left. Zhao Zizhong ordered the craftsmen to call it a day, everyone packed up their tools, and slowly walked back to the camp.
After entering the cafeteria, Zhao Zizhong saw Na Zhe and Fang Ju Niang sitting together eating. He walked over, and Fang Juniang hurriedly got up and said hello, "Mr. Zhao, haven't you eaten yet?" Why don't you eat with us? ”
Zhao Zizhong sat down with a smile, and Na Zhe asked, "Boss, how is your turret built?" ”
Zhao Zizhong's face darkened in an instant, and he said with some annoyance: "What turret, don't listen to Du Dalei's nonsense, it's obviously a bunker." Now that the foundation has been completed, tomorrow we can start building the above-ground part. ”
Fang Juniang went to bring food to Zhao Zizhong, Zhao Zizhong devoured it for a while, drank another bowl of water, felt not too hungry, put down the chopsticks and asked, "Ju Niang, why didn't those girls come to the canteen to eat?" ”
"They are making wedding dresses for Wanqiu, and I have the food delivered to their place."
"Is that Wanqiu satisfied with Zhai Xiaoshan?"
Fang Juniang thought for a while and replied, "She is very calm, I can't tell if she is satisfied." But for us poor people, Zhai Xiaoshan should be a good man. Although he came from a poor background, our sisters were also from a poor background. Moreover, Wanqiu was married to a wife, Zhai Xiaoshan still has a lot of money in his hands, and he also has a field, so he should have a good life. ”
Zhao Zi nodded emphatically, "Ju Niang, after eating in a while, I'll take Zhai Xiaoshan to see Wanqiu, ask her if she needs anything, and you can take us there later." ”
Fang Juniang was a little surprised, she glanced at Na Zhe, and when she saw that he didn't care, she said carefully: "Mr. Zhao, is this good?" Doesn't it say that men and women can't meet before marriage? ”
Zhao Zizhong smiled and said: "It's okay, there is no such custom in our hometown, and it is normal for me to go to the families of the soldiers on behalf of my brothers." ”
Na Zhe also coaxed, "I'll also go and see, after all, they are my teachers, and it is our party's fine tradition for leaders to care about the masses!" ”
Fang Juniang glanced at Na Zhe and said to Zhao Zizhong: "Mr. Zhao, I'll go back and talk to them first, so that the sisters can be prepared in their hearts, so as not to be embarrassed when Wanqiu and Zhai Xiaoshan meet for a while." ”
Fang Juniang left, and Na Zhe asked, "Boss, among those girls, is there any one you like?" ”
Zhao Zizhong shook his head and said: "I'm very busy now, I don't have the heart to think about women at all, and Lao Wei is probably the same as me." ”
Na Zhe smiled and said, "Boss, don't you know, after dinner in the past two days, Du Dalei's kid went to walk around the house where the girls lived. I saw it, and he didn't admit it, saying that he went out for a walk after dinner. I think he just wants to soak Fu Hongyu. ”
Zhao Zizhong said while eating: "It's nothing, I think that Fu Hongyu is a bit cold, and she is lukewarm to anyone." Du Dalei will definitely be deflated, it depends on whether he has the perseverance and whether he can fight to the death. ”
Na Zhe asked curiously, "Boss, I didn't expect you to be quite experienced?" Did you chase your sister-in-law like this back then? ”
Zhao Zizhong's face changed, and he said a little gloomily: "Your sister-in-law and I fell in love at first sight, the two looked at each other, but I took the initiative to chase her." Hey, I don't know how she and her son are doing now. ”
Na Zhe stuck out his tongue and diverted the topic. At this time, Du Dalei, Boris, and * Ye came in one after another, and they all came over and sat down. Everyone chatted while eating, and after more than half an hour, Zhai Xiaoshan walked over slowly, stood at the table, and looked at Zhao Zizhong with a smirk.
Wei Hongye quipped: "Yo, isn't this our groom official?" Why didn't you get ready for the wedding and come here? ”
Zhai Xiaoshan's face turned red, and he snorted and didn't speak. Zhao Zizhong asked, "Xiaoshan, have you finished eating?" ”
He nodded, "I'm done." Zhao Zizhong stood up, "Let's go." ”
Na Zhe also got up and said, "I'll go too, brothers, let's eat slowly." ”
Du Dalei asked curiously, "What are you going to do?" Why don't you take me? ”
The stinky fart said: "The leader is going to inspect the work, what are you doing with a small foreman?" ”
Du Dalei jumped up and grabbed Na Zhe's neck and threatened him: "Little Master, didn't I clean you up for a few days, and your skin is itchy?" Hurry up and say it, or I'll greet you with the 'Ten Tortures of the Manchu Dynasty'!" ”
Na Zhe was pinched so that his tongue stuck out, and he beat Du Dalei's arm with his hand. But Du Dalei has been insisting on practicing martial arts during this time, and Na Zhe's fist seems to be tickling him, but it has no effect.
Boris stood up and dragged Du Dalei away and glared at him, "Are you really pinching?" Don't be light or heavy, what if you can't control your strength and choke him? ”
Du Dalei said with a smile: "I didn't make any effort, I just played with him." ”
Zhao Zi kicked Du Dalei hard, "Are you playing around like this?" While staying away. Then Zhe, does it matter if you want it? ”
Na Zhe gasped a few times, "I'm fine, let's go, the girls are still waiting for us." ”
When Du Dalei heard Na Zhe's words, he asked eagerly, "What are they waiting for?" Boss, are you going to pick up girls? ”
Na Zhe smiled evilly and said: "That's right, I'm just going to take the boss to soak the girl, what's the matter, you're not convinced?" ”
Du Dalei shouted excitedly: "I'm going too, don't leave me!" ”
"If you don't pretend to be a resentful woman here, I won't take you there." Na Zhe deliberately angered him.
Zhao Zizhong ignored him and walked outside. Zhai Xiaoshan and Na Zhe also followed out, and Du Dalei hurriedly followed, with a shy face and close to Na Zhe. Na Zhe didn't talk to him at all, chatting with Zhai Xiaoshan as he walked.
Du Dalei followed the three of them with a dead face, and no one could do anything about him. After a while, they walked to the southeast of the camp, where the women and children lived.
Fang Juniang and a few girls were standing outside the room talking and laughing, Du Dalei stretched his neck and looked, but he didn't see Fu Hongyu. He was a little disappointed, and his eyes looked around, trying to find Fu Hongyu.
Zhao Zizhong walked over and said with a smile: "Ju Niang, it's windy outside, you guys go in quickly, don't get sick from freezing." ”
Several girls saluted Zhao Zi one after another, and Fang Juniang said: "Mr. Zhao, Wanqiu is trying on clothes in the house, you wait for a while, I'll go in and have a look." ”
"It's okay, we'll wait a while."
Fang Juniang walked into the house, and then came out to invite a few people in. Zhao Zizhong walked into the house first. He saw Wanqiu standing in the middle of the room wearing a red wedding dress, with a shy expression, and Fu Hongyu next to her holding her arm, her eyes were cold, and she had an expression that no one was close to.
The two women saluted the brothers, and Zhao Zizhong waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite, I'm just here to come and ask you if you still need anything." ”
Wanqiu lowered her head and said softly: "Thank you Mr. Zhao for your concern, the slave family has no requirements." ”
Du Dalei pushed Zhai Xiaoshan, who was still looking at Wanqiu stupidly, "Boy, go say hello to your daughter-in-law." ”
Zhai Xiaoshan, who was standing behind, was suddenly pushed out by Du Dalei and almost hit Wanqiu. Zhai Xiaoshan's face was flushed, he looked at Wanqiu, and stammered: "I~I, yes~ I'm sorry, you~ You don't matter, right?" ”
Everyone in the room laughed, only Fu Hongyu's face remained unchanged. Wanqiu's face turned even redder, and she lowered her head and didn't speak. Fang Juniang beckoned everyone to sit down, and the two girls served tea and invited everyone to taste it.
Zhao Zizhong took a sip of tea and said slowly: "Miss Wanqiu, Zhai Xiaoshan is from a bitter background, and his family is a hunter. When he was thirteen years old, his parents and two younger sisters were killed by the rebels, and later he went to take revenge and killed six Song soldiers by himself. It's just that because he was young and weak, he was caught and became a slave. Then I traveled all over the world and came here six years later. ”
