Chapter 126: The Woman with Gritted Teeth
Stomp ......
The horses' hooves galloped up mud and crumbs, galloping across the rugged road, dozens of horses marched through the night towards the house with two large lanterns in front of them, more than a dozen war horses stopped at the gate, the figure of the guard rushed over dozens of knights to greet them, and the long cloth bag on the horse's back struggled and writhed and fell to the ground.
"Is this the man?" The greeting wolf rode over and tore open his pocket to reveal a frightened and immature face, quite delicate, "It's still a child......
With a smile, the man untied the strip of cloth in Yuan Xi's mouth, he looked around tremblingly, and his lips trembled: "You know...... I don't know...... My father is Yuan Shao...... He is the pastor of Jizhou, and you want money...... Can I write back...... How much...... My dad will give it to you. ”
"And what about your father's head?"
Yuan Xi trembled with fright, shrank back, and his words trembled: "Ah....you...... You ......"
The wolf rode a joke, and seeing that the boy was frightened, he waved his hand to his companion: "The leader is inside, you can bring him in." ”
"I heard that the Zhang family is very charming, is it true?" The wolf rider who came over carried the boy directly on his shoulder. The figure over there with arms around shook his head: "Don't use your brains ......., that woman can support a huge Zhen family, she must have the ability, just you...... Beware that there is no dregs left to be eaten. ”
"Haha...... It's not bad to be eaten......" The wolf rider who was carrying the young man laughed rampantly and strode into the courtyard, and the servants of the Zhen family around him saw the thieves who came in, and they probably didn't dare to look at it, thinking that they had been greeted before they came. When I walked into the courtyard outside the main hall, I heard a woman's shrill voice inside, as if she was arguing with someone.
"Hundreds of thousands of people's rations for a month, where did my Zhen family come from, even if you sell my old bones, you can't supply them...... This idea, the old body does not agree! ”
"Mrs. Zhen is young and beautiful, where is she old...... The Zhen family can't produce so much, but in the end, it is also a pivotal big family in Jizhou, and the appeal must be there...... Right? Wouldn't it be nice to have a little out of the family? The miscellaneous family is also for your good. ”
"Convening... Other tycoons are fine, but who is willing to share this grain and grass? My Zhen family contributed, and when the time comes, I will repay the favor, so I have to pay it back! That's how you eat old people?! ”
"What Mrs. Zhen said is not right, the horse dealer Zhang Shiping removed it for your Zhen family earlier, and got hundreds of horses from Youzhou for you...... In the future, the good days of your family are still ahead, and Mrs. Zhen is also a long-term person, why do you only see what is in front of you. ”
Jian Shuo sat behind a few cases with a smile, and spoke softly to the panting woman above: "...... Besides, the head of my family is also your daughter's stepfather, after all, one father and one mother, we are still together. ”
Zhang's face was red, he gritted his silver teeth, his eyes glanced at the shadow in the corner over there, and he slapped the long case with his backhand, "...... This is not mentioned in advance, just say that the horses you got the month before yesterday, nearly half of them are injured horses, for this matter horse dealers all over Jizhou have looked for the old body several times, you can see the old body as your own people? Now that they are in trouble, the opening is the rations of hundreds of thousands of people, and no matter how benevolent the Zhen family is, it is not to look at the good hall. ”
Over there, Jian Shuo also looked at the figure in the shadows, and his smiling face gradually cooled: "Mrs. Zhen, do you really don't think about it anymore?" ”
"There's nothing to talk about—"
"Sure enough...... After marrying Yuan Shao, the tone was different. Jian Shuo rubbed his hands and stood up: "But Yuan Shao is in Yecheng, he can't catch up." ”
The woman also stood up, puffed up her chest, and raised her chin: "The old body is not afraid of death, I still have a son, and the son is dead and has a grandson, if you have the ability, you can kill in the city, the Zhen family is not afraid of threats, it is a big deal to be humiliated, but the old body has not touched a man for a few years, and it may not be known who will be humiliated at that time." ”
"......" Jian Shuo was speechless, obviously not expecting this woman in her thirties to say such pungent words.
Bang Bang Bang –
The slap slapped from the shadows, the candlelight caressed, and a figure got up and strode over, "Mrs. Zhen's words made Gongsun Zhi admire...... Since you have such confidence in your heart, then I will let you look at someone. ”
Zhang's words were also forced to be helpless, after all, to deal with thieves, an ordinary set is obviously not good, but this time, the other party beckoned a person in and threw it to the ground.
"Come, tell the woman in front of you." Gongsun Zhi stretched out his hand to pinch the frightened and trembling young man, lifted it up from the ground, and pointed at Zhang's: "...... What is your name. ”
"Yuan ...... Yuan Xi ......" The young man trembled in his hands and stammered, "...... Don't kill me...... What do you want...... I call my father to you. ”
The hand was released and Yuan Xi was thrown aside, and Gongsun Zhi stepped forward and approached the woman: "Mrs. Zhen quietly engaged my daughter-in-law, why didn't you inform me, but now it's okay, I accidentally arrested my future son-in-law, do you say that I let Mi'er be a widow?" Or do you want to find her a family business again...... I think you have a problem with your vision...... Pick a son-in-law, bad. ”
"You can't kill him, he is Yuan Jizhou's son......" Zhang is not a fool, naturally he will not believe the words of the wrong person, and he is also a little anxious at this time, if this thief really kills Yuan Shao's son here, the Zhen family is completely finished.
Gongsun Zhi laughed: "So...... Rations for 500,000 people, you have to think of a way, at the end of the month. ”
"Time is too short...... At the latest at the beginning of next month, such a huge amount of food, it does not mean that people will take it, others are willing to take it, and then my Zhen family will inevitably have to take something valuable to offset with them, and it will take time...... Don't push people too quickly, it's a big deal that the old body and you are dead. ”
"The fish may die, but the net will not break!" Gongsun Zhi turned around and walked back, grabbed the hair bun of the young man on the ground, the other party screamed in pain, and was dragged out of the hall door, the walking figure waved his hand and clenched his fist in mid-air, and the voice then came from outside the door: "...... You don't have the guts, don't hold on! At the beginning of September, I waited for your food, but it was not enough, I personally led people to rob it one by one, and don't blame me if too many people died. ”
The house was deserted, since the death of her husband, the burden of the entire Zhen family was on the woman's shoulders, almost about to collapse, she sat down a little awkwardly, looking at the cold and deserted main hall, there were maids around who wanted to come in to help, she waved her hand and rolled out, while pouring wine, while drinking herself, for a while, tears fell down.
"If you want to fight, you will fight...... If you want to save others, hundreds of thousands of people, you will save them, let the old man carry such a big burden alone......"
The sound of sobbing slowly sounded in the dim and cold hall, the light of the candle flame shone on her silhouette, and the silhouette of the lonely girl stuck to the ground, pouring and drinking, wet tears flowed down her cheeks, mixed with wine stains and dripped to the ground.
……
Early the next morning, the woman returned to her old look, went out early, got into the car and told the coachman: "Go to the king's house first.......
In such a period of more than half a month, this woman has quietly visited dozens of wealthy families in the north, and at the same time, some of the family's belongings, house deeds, and land deeds have also been folded into most of them, if you look down on the land of Zhongshan, you will find that a large number of convoys, like ants from different directions, quietly passed towards Montenegro from all directions, and there were also some winter clothes and bedding and other items.
On the other hand, in the huge Taihang Mountains, a round of migration is also dragging on, but there have also been individual rebounds, which makes Zhang Yan's face very unsightly.
This tension and rebellion continued until the winter moon.
