Chapter 216: Succeeding Sima (II)
Li Yanzhi led his subordinates through the city and alleys, and kept telling the soldiers to line up and not to collide with the people along the way. The soldiers also followed the order, and they had the style of a mighty army. The people on the road, as well as the vendors on the street, were also puzzled by this sudden appearance of cavalry, and they stood on the side of the street, pointing at Li Yanzhi's department.
It didn't take long for many people on the street to recognize Li Yanzhi and these soldiers, who were the soldiers who had assisted them in reclaiming the famine, and for a while, the people on the street came forward to greet them. Although there are many new faces in this team now, the faces of the soldiers who have spent time with them day and night and reclaimed the wasteland outside the city have long been deeply imprinted in their minds.
At this time, they were all excited to see these old people coming. Many people turned back home to get vegetables, fruits, eggs and other food, and then rushed back and enthusiastically stuffed them into the arms of those old people. This scene made the soldiers who later enlisted in the army can't help but feel hot.
Li Yanzhi was the leading general of this team at the beginning, and these people naturally will not forget him. After walking only a few hundred steps, Li Yanzhi was hanging in the cloth bag on his side, and he was already stuffed with vegetables, fruits, eggs and other food brought by the people. Among them, there were also many civilians who heard the news that Li Yanzhi was seriously injured in the previous battle, and at this time they gathered around the team and accompanied the team. The concerned questioning never stopped, which made Li Yanzhi feel that although it was difficult to deal with it, there was also a warmth in his heart.
After walking for a while, among the people next to him, an old man asked Li Yanzhi what he meant. Li Yanzhi said that he wanted to lead the new Sima Su Xiaolangjun to take up his post in Daying, and the old man listened to it and sighed with some regret: "That Su Xiaolangjun came from Longxi, and he didn't have any serious work in a year, so he drank every day. Getting drunk is almost the norm. Sometimes he went out to the street and scolded the thief and the pseudo-Zhao Liu Yao. When people think of the old scenery of their hometown, their hearts ache......"
When Li Yanzhi heard Su Fu's actions, he also felt sorry in his heart. But it's quite understandable. The family was destroyed in World War I, and his father was also victimized by the thieves, and he must not be able to let go. However, he has the intention to kill the thief, but he has no way to serve the country, and he is depressed in his heart, and he uses wine to drown his sorrows, which is also in line with his state of mind.
Now that his long-cherished wish has been fulfilled, he has suddenly become a military attache in the county, and Li Yanzhi doesn't know how this little Langjun is going to toss. He only hoped that Su Fumo would be carried away by hatred, so that these subordinates he brought out would suffer senseless sacrifices and casualties.
Under the guidance of the old man, Li Yanzhi and his party soon arrived outside the Su Mansion. After thanking the old man, Li Yanzhi stepped forward and knocked on the door of the house. When the people saw that they had been sent to the place, they also dispersed and returned to their homes. Now that the autumn grain has been harvested, it is still necessary to prepare the seeds needed to sow the winter grain. Moreover, the soldiers also have official duties, and it is inconvenient for them to stay for a long time.
Li Yanzhi knocked on the door a few times before an old slave opened the door, and saw a large group of soldiers standing outside, his eyes were uncertain, and he stammered: "Military ...... Master Jun, my family...... Old...... The lord is in ...... In the prefectural ...... If you are looking for ...... Looking for the master...... If so, please ...... Please ...... Move to the county seat. ”
Li Yanzhi looked at the old slave who stammered in fright, and knew that it was so many soldiers under his command who surrounded the door of people's mansions, which made the old slave misunderstand. He hurriedly noticed that Liu Jiwu led his troops to take a few steps back. Then he arched his hand and said to the old slave: "Don't be afraid, old man, we were ordered to come and lead Su Xiaolangjun to the county camp to take office." I also ask the old man to give me a shout. If Su Ming Mansion is not there, please inform the person in the mansion who is still in charge......"
When the old slave heard this, his expression was a little embarrassed: "Old ...... The old man is not here, and there is no one in the house who can take charge of it...... Army...... Master Jun. Could you please wait...... Wait until the old man...... When the master returns home, ...... again Again. ”
Li Yanzhi looked a little disappointed, he thought about it, and said: "Since there is no one in charge, please ask the old man to invite Su Fu Su Xiaolangjun to come, I will say a few words to him, it's always okay......"
When the old slave heard this, his face was even more bitter: "Su Xiaolangjun...... He...... He was drunk at this point...... Ing...... In the wing...... Rest in the wing...... At this time...... I'm afraid it's not appropriate to call him at this time...... Isn't that right? ”
Li Yanzhi was also angry for a while, and he stood in place and said nothing for a long time. When is this? The person in charge was not there, and even the person who was going to invite him back was drunk. It's unthinkable. That's it, how do you go back and explain to Pang Xi?
In the midst of the six gods and no masters, Li Yanzhi suddenly heard a crisp and tactful voice sounding inside the door, and asked, "Uncle Zhang!" Who is visiting? ”
When Li Yanzhi heard the voice at first glance, he felt a little familiar, and after tasting it carefully, his heart pounded. After just a few breaths, the voice was gradually approaching, and it was already in my ears in a blink of an eye: "Since you invite your cousin to take office, please come in and talk about it in detail, and when your cousin wakes up, why do you make people wait outside the door?" ”
The old slave opened the door of the mansion, but Li Yanzhi's heart beat more and more, and suddenly, he felt that a stream of heat in his veins had covered his entire face. He didn't wait to see the fluttering figure, so he lowered his head, hugged his fists and said, "The last general, Li Yanzhi, has seen Little Lady Su." ”
Li Yanzhi didn't look up, watching the skirt in the afterglow getting closer and closer, and didn't stop until he was two or three steps in front of him. The owner of the voice was indeed a little surprised: "General Li? I don't know which general came to ask my cousin to take office, but it turned out to be an old man. ”
"Bothering the little lady is not the original intention of the general. Since Su Xiaolangjun is drunk and has not woken up, we will wait here. If Xiao Langjun wakes up, please ask the little lady to say goodbye, and I will take Xiao Langjun to the post as soon as possible. The last general thanked the little lady. ”
Su Wanyun listened to Li Yanzhi's words, and also smiled bitterly: "My cousin was drunk, but I didn't know when I woke up." Is the general really going to wait outside the door? ”
Li Yanzhi clenched his fists, but his head hung lower: "This is really official business, don't dare to disturb." ”
"Okay then." Su Wanyun said with a smile, but there was a bit of loss in his words: "I'll send someone to call my cousin, the two generals might as well go to the front of the hall to wait, Jiayan has not returned to the county government, and the two generals have come to the house, I don't want to slack off......"
Li Yanzhi looked at Liu Jiwu, and saw that Liu Jiwu was also at a loss, thought about it, and then arched his hand and said: "Since this is the case, I will thank the little lady for her kindness." After that, Li Yanzhi turned around, took out a money bag from his arms, threw it to Cui Yang, who was standing behind Liu Jiwu, and said, "Take the brothers to fill their stomachs, drink tea or something, and send someone back to take a look at it in an hour." No alcohol! If it's a mistake, I'll ask you! ”
Cui Yang took the money bag with a smile, and then immediately surrendered his hand: "Sima, don't worry, we will never drink!" ”
After that, Li Yanzhi watched Cui Yang take people away, and then entered the door with Liu Jiwu, Su Xiaoniang had already ordered her subordinates to move the stool and other things to the front yard. Li Yanzhi and Liu Jiwu sat side by side, but they were still a little restrained.
Su Xiaoniang smiled, and then went to move the piano to the courtyard, and ordered her subordinates to burn incense, so she stroked the piano in the front yard.
"Guan Guan Ju Dove, in the river island. My Fair Lady, Gentleman.
Jagged wattles, left and right flowing. My Fair Lady, I covet it.
I can't ask for it, but I can't think about it. Leisurely, tossing and turning.
Jagged wattles, picked left and right. My Fair Lady, Friends of the Piano.
Jagged wattle, left and right. My Fair Lady, bells and drums. ”
Li Yanzhi and Liu Jiwu sat on the stool, both of them were a little uncomfortable at first, but as the notes played, both of them began to gradually immerse themselves in the artistic conception depicted by the sound of Su Xiaoniang's piano, and gradually forgot that they were in Su Mansion at this time and invited Su Fu to go to work.
Su Xiaoniang played a song "Guan Ju". It is also from the Book of Songs. It can be said to be a famous story that has been sung for thousands of years and has endured. The opening poem in this poem portrays the pain of lovesickness when young people want to pursue girls but can't.
At the end of the song, the aftermath was endless, and the slightly sluggish two people also woke up suddenly with the disappearance of the sound of the piano. Li Yanzhi got up and said: "I haven't seen you for more than a year, and the little lady's piano skills have increased again. This natural sound, listening to it once is already extremely rare, and now after listening to it twice, I will only feel that I have no regrets in this life in terms of music......"
When Su Wanyun heard this, she also chuckled lightly for a while, and then got up and bowed. I was about to sit down and stroke another song, but I heard stumbling footsteps in the hall, and then, a somewhat chaotic voice came: "Today...... What day is it? I haven't heard my cousin Fuqin for a long time......"
Seeing this, Su Wanyun hurriedly got up, stepped forward to hug Su Fu, who was still a little drunk, and said, "Cousin! General Li of the county government is here, please leave immediately and go to the county camp to take up your post! ”
"What? What are you going to? Su Fu tried to keep his eyes open, but he shook his head and asked inarticulately.
