After being silent for a long time, the third aunt smiled and said: "Eldest sister, in the past two years, I have indeed relied on Shi Wen's help, and the master has saved a lot of worry, but in the blink of an eye, she is eighteen, our family can't keep delaying her, if it drags on, it will become an old girl......"

In this era, almost all girls in fifteen or sixteen are married, and eighteen-year-old girls have no in-laws, which is a very gossip-friendly thing.

"Yes, yes, eldest sister, what I told you last time, how is the eldest son of the Zhou family in Laiyuan County?"

The second aunt leaned over and said: "I have seen the eldest prince of Zhou with my own eyes, tall and big, a talent, it is said that he came out of what military academy, and now he has pulled out a team of more than 1,000 people at home, and the people near Laiyuan are all protected by his troops, and even the Japanese have personally come to the door to entrust him to manage the local security...... Although our Zhou family also has a head and face in Anyuan, compared with the Laiyuan Zhou family, it is definitely not enough, if Shi Wen can really become a prince of Zhou, it will definitely be a high climb! ”

"Yes, eldest sister, isn't the lord worried about the Japanese now? If we form a family with the Zhou family, with the face of the eldest son of Zhou in front of the Japanese, even if those Japanese soldiers are no longer humane, they will not dare to touch our Zhou family, right? The third aunt was too busy to echo on the side.

The eldest lady sighed when she heard this: "Then the eldest prince of Zhou, call Zhou Tao here, right?" I've also seen his photo paintings (photos), he is indeed a talent, worthy of my Shi Wen, but Shi Wen, this girl, I have to say when I will meet, and I will know if it is suitable to understand it face-to-face, which is like us at that time, the matchmaker brought it over to take a look, and it is impossible to get along privately and have the opportunity to understand, not a lifetime? ”

"Yes, now in these years, Chairman Jiang said that there is a new life and a new life, but there is no good thing, but the Japanese have come in, and people's hearts are also wild......" The second aunt and the third aunt can only sigh at the beginning of the conversation.

On the other side, the maid was playing a lantern in front, and Lin Shiwen was following, bowing her head and thinking about her thoughts.

"Miss, are you thinking about that eldest prince again?" The maid laughed.

"What nonsense?"

Lin Shiwen's face turned cold when she heard this: "Now that the army is in chaos, my father and I are looking at how to help our Lin family survive the current difficulties, so are you in the mood to think about those children's affections?" ”

"I was wrong, miss!"

The maid laughed and said: "But that week, the eldest son, he was really good-looking, heroic and extraordinary, Xiaocui is just afraid that Miss missed it and will regret it......"

"What do you know!"

Lin Shiwen couldn't bear to scold this maid who grew up together, and sighed lightly: "I also saw Zhou Tao's photos, it looks really good, but the rumors about him in the countryside are not good, I heard that he is very close to the Japanese, if you really associate with him, you will be scolded by someone poking your back!" ”

"What's this, the Japanese are so powerful, many people don't have a chance to climb the relationship!" The maid Xiaocui said.

Lin Shiwen didn't speak, just sighed, Xiaocui didn't read or read, she didn't understand the truth of her family and country, she didn't understand it at all, but she herself understood, although she couldn't say many things clearly, but she still subconsciously rejected the Japanese, so she also rejected the Zhou family, who had close contacts with the Japanese.

This is also the reason why she knew that if she and Zhou Tao got married, the predicament faced by the Lin family would be solved, but now that it has dragged on for a few months, she still does not dare to agree, of course, she did not refuse directly, she just wants to watch first and see how the situation will develop.

At this moment, there were roars and screams in the vestibule, and many of the guards were running towards it with guns.

"Oh no, something must have happened!"

Lin Shiwen was shocked when she saw this, and hurriedly rushed over, she knew that her father was over there now, for fear that something would happen to him, although the maid was afraid, she also hurriedly followed.

In the vestibule, there was tension, dozens of guards with guns were squatting or standing everywhere, their faces were grim and abnormal, and in the courtyard, a thin guy with a hemp pole was leading seven or eight men, and the old man Lin Si was confronting.

"Miss, it's those people who have been pestering us to go to some Trojan Horse County to open a grain store cloth store for the past two days......" Looking at the people in the courtyard, Xiao Cui said in a low voice.

"Miss, don't go in, it's dangerous - those guys, all of them have guns on their bodies, and flower traps, it's not good to come!"

The head of the courtyard said with a pale face, and his eyes were vigilantly looking at the pock-like guy, he had been in the army, and he could see at a glance that among the seven or eight people, the guy with the average hemp stick figure had definitely seen blood in his hands, and it could even be said that he was murderous.

"Don't be afraid, I've seen him!"

Lin Shiwen glanced at a few people: "According to him, they are the country. Although the people of the independent regiment of the Sichuan Army all brought guns, they were soldiers and not bandits, so I don't think they would shoot indiscriminately...... Let me pass! ”

In the vestibule, there was a confrontation with Lins, of course, Wang Ma Gong and a few men from the platoon.

When he came to Anyuan County, Luo Qinghu left a few people for Wang Mazhuan, and he took people back to Wuhan directly by water, ready to help Lu Yuan buy the cement, generators, pumps and other things he needed, while Wang Magang tried to persuade merchants to open shops in Muma County here.

The grain store and cloth store on Anyuan's side and other slightly profitable businesses are almost all the Lin family's industry, and in the end, of course, they can't get around Lin Si.

To expand business, the Lin family is naturally willing, but as soon as they heard that they were going to Trojan County, the Lin family was not happy - a small town with only a dozen houses suddenly turned into a county, as long as their heads were not squeezed by the door, they would not go here to open a store.

After a stalemate for two days, Wang Mazhuan said a lot of saliva, but it was completely useless, seeing that the time was dragging on for more and more time, he immediately took a step forward and directly brought people to the Lin family's mansion for the final negotiation.

If the negotiation is successful, of course it is good, if the negotiation fails, he will directly rob people, although the Lin family has fifty or sixty guns, and the county security team still has more than a hundred guns, but he has fought with the elite of the Japanese army, where does he care about this?

"Master Lin, you forced me!"

Wang Ma pole carried the flower machine and said with a cruel smile: "I have said all the good things, go to my Trojan Horse County, not only there are tax exemptions, but also our regiment commander will cover your losses if you do business, not to mention that Trojan County is the only defense area around the garrison of the National Government Army, you can be regarded as serving the country, but you are really stubborn, then don't blame our Sichuan Army Independent Regiment for not being emotional!" ”

"Return to the country. Army? Armed with guns and trying to rob people at every turn, I see that you are no different from bandits! ”

Lin Siyou was only frightened under the threat of the gun, and screamed: "I won't go with you, don't think that only you have a gun, my Lin family also has it - if I lose half a hair, you don't want to get out alive!" ”
