This is a woman who makes him uncertain and unpredictable, and she is also a woman with a very strong sex, and I don't know if this incident will make her have a pimple in her heart. Zhuang Yi felt a little lost in his heart, silently picked up the pot of shandan flowers, seeing that Lei Niang had already ridden the horse, turned around and went back to Yuyang, he didn't catch up, everything that should have been said had already been said, and it was useless to catch up and entangle the explanation.

"Flowers, flowers...... You have to thrive! Zhuang Yi muttered pleadingly, turning around and returning to the convoy. He thought about it, held the flower pot in his hand, walked to Zhao Qiuling's carriage, and got in.

"This is a pot of shandan flowers given to me by Lei Niang, the roots, stems and leaves are poisonous, Lei Niang said, if I treat you badly, you can eat this; If you treat me badly, I also ate this, you help me feed it to bloom! Zhuang Yi said very seriously, he was afraid that Zhao Qiuling would know the truth and would dig up this pot of flowers.

"Ah...... All right! Lei Niang said that, it doesn't seem right! That...... Husband! You and Lei Niang are ...... Be? Zhao Qiuling was stunned, a little puzzled in her heart, and asked a little tangled, she was only sixteen years old, although she was also precocious, but her heart was still pure, and she couldn't see Zhuang Yi's careful thoughts.

"I'm not going to hide it from you! Lei Niang has long been my woman, how about letting her be your companion? Zhuang Yi also asked tentatively.

"This ...... Yes! Did you tell Lei Niang? Did she say yes? Zhao Qiuling groaned slightly, and actually agreed happily, and asked with great concern. She and Lei Niang have known each other well, and their friendship is not shallow, and she is not disgusted with Lei Niang, otherwise, she would not go to visit the Qinglou no matter what.

Seeing this girl's heartless appearance, Zhuang Yi was a little speechless, but this is fine, only those who have no heart and lungs are blessed, he will never marry a scheming woman home.

"I haven't agreed to this yet, but it's okay, you can just raise this pot of flowers first! Then I'll go down first, and I'll be with you later, and it will be a few days before I arrive!" Zhuang Yi said, hugged Zhao Qiuling and gave a rewarding kiss, turned around and jumped out of the carriage.

Zhao Qiuling's heart suddenly felt sweet, her mood improved, and she also had some smiles on her face. I think I also know that she has had enough of grievances in the past few days, and her grandfather didn't even let her send a wedding envoy, and she was willing to give these dowries, but her father promised to come down.

Zhuang Yi instructed Yuan Zhi to pull Lei Niang's two trucks of goods over, and fifty carts lined up in a long line, and it was difficult to see each other from the beginning to the end, and they marched towards the northeast again.

Five days later, in the afternoon, the convoy finally entered Diexiu Village, this way Zhuang Yi was tired, all the carriages were basically overloaded, some steep slopes could not go up, had to unload the goods, up the steep slope and then load it.

The goods finally entered the stockade, but the warehouse could not be loaded, so Zhuang Yi first asked Duan Renzhen to count and receive, and then vacated the empty room to load. He didn't care about being tired, so he first took Zhao Qiuling and Mei Xiang, plus Zhao Qiuling's two maids, Yuhe and Caiping, and placed them in the back house. Although the house is very dilapidated, it is good to be able to live in. Zhao Qiuling didn't say anything, her two maids were not happy, but seeing that there were such dilapidated houses in the village, she couldn't say anything.

Zhuang Yi asked Mei Xiang to arrange for Zhao Qiuling's master and servant, they had already gotten acquainted on the road in the past few days, but they talked and laughed. He went to the council hall by himself, and asked Bian Wu to find Duan Zhongzhong, the old guy was busy and confused, but he was really happy, and immediately ran over.

"Oh Lang! Although our foundation is not big, your wedding is about to be organized, this is good to be regarded as starting a family, you are twenty years old, you have passed the age of crowning, and you are a literate person, can you take the table words? As soon as Duan Zhongzhong entered the hall door and sat down, he said happily.

"Table words? Why don't you get one for Mr. Duan? Zhuang Yi couldn't help but smile, and immediately smiled. This old guy actually wants to be his own elder, but it's fine.

Take the word, this is a kind of ritual of the ancients, is a person's name annotation and supplement, the word is generally taken by the family elder or teacher, in the temple for the late person to preside over the crown and bun ceremony, by the way, take the word, indicating that the late person has become an adult, can marry a woman, can join the army and participate in the sacrifice.

In the final analysis, the word is the product of the patriarchal system, mainly used to show respect and humility, and is used to be honored, "The Book of Rites, Tan Gong": "There is a way to be a father in the twentieth year, and friends and other categories cannot be called by their names." That is, the elder can name the latecomer, and the latecomer cannot name the elder and the elders, but can only call the word.

"Good! Tomorrow is an auspicious day, and I will invite a group of officers and officials in the village to give a witness and take one for you. Duan Zhongzhong smiled and stroked his long beard.

"Okay! I came to you just to discuss something with you, time waits for no one, I plan to go north to Xi Wang's tooth tent after my wedding. The equipment and grain and grass brought back this time must be distributed to the brothers of the Wolf Mountain Camp in the White Wolf Mountain, and some important things in the village must also begin to be transferred to the White Wolf Mountain. After Zhuang Yi finished speaking, he turned around and got the map and spread it out on the desk.

"What does Da Lang mean, do you want someone to accompany you or let someone stay?" Duan Zhongzhong asked.

"Of course you can only stay, let Zhang Zhen take the two to watch here, your main task here is to prepare enough logistics baggage, because the war on King Xi's side is over, it is estimated that it will be winter, if there is no heavy snow, we will take advantage of the situation to wave Yingzhou, if it snows heavily, it will be delayed until the beginning of spring next year." No matter when you take Yingzhou, grain and grass are a big problem, so you have to be prepared to sell grain for a long time, once I send you news, you must immediately rush to Wolf Mountain, and Zhang Zhen will stay here. Zhuang Yi said his plan.

"That's it! There are quite a lot of things, so let my eldest man bring someone over in a few days! How many people are you going to take with you when you go north? Duan Zhongzhong nodded and agreed.

"Just bring one plus my personal guards, anyway, it's to help King Xi train and fight the Khitans, but it's not for my people to die, so it's arranged. In addition, there are two truckloads of goods that are a friend's, you already know, when the time comes, they will be transported to Yingzhou, and by the way, they can also collect information about Yingzhou, and then exchange them for furs and jewelry to be transported to Yuyang, which can be used by Yuan Zhi, he is already familiar. ”

"In addition, the houses in the village have to be repaired, the wall of the wall must be heightened and reinforced, the arrow tower and the guard tower are indispensable, in short, the defense facilities must be strengthened, and this place can be stationed for a long time. Then the things in the two villages, they are entrusted to you, this is a worrying thing, busy this year, by next year we will be in Yingzhou, this territory I am determined to get, the big guy follow me, can also have a future. ”

"Don't worry, Da Lang, I'm not unfamiliar with these things, and I can handle them well......" Duan Zhongzhong patted his chest and said.

"That's good! Take advantage of the free time these days, relax and relax, and you will have to be busy in the future. There are also the two newcomers Li Langzhong and Zhang Langzhong, you have to settle them well and stabilize their hearts. The other is Fu Tieshou, this blacksmith is okay, the ordnance workshop will be handed over to him, and the weapons will be built according to the drawings I draw, and you will save a lot of worry, and he will be happy. Zhuang Yi said and began to yawn, he was really tired, but his residence was estimated to be a mess now.

"Okay! Just do as you say. Dalang, you just came back, go and rest! I'll go first! Duan Zhongzhong became more and more energetic the busier he was, and immediately ran away.

Seeing that the sun was waning and it was not early, Zhuang Yi walked out of the conference hall and walked towards his residence on the side of the school. Looking at the mountains in the distance, the twilight is heavy, on the thatched roof in the village, drinking and smoking are everywhere, and there is laughter and laughter everywhere, Zhuang Yi is a little relieved, in the near future, these men will be able to get rid of the identity of thieves.

Mei Xiang was standing in the courtyard, loudly directing the guards to move things, Zhao Qiuling held a handkerchief in his hand, crumpled it into a ball, and stood aside with two maids, seeing that he couldn't help, he stood there a little tangled. The voices of Mrs. Zhang and Aunt Wang of Duan Zhongzhong's family came from the house, and it seemed that they were placing furniture and looking for a new house.

"Autumn Spirit! You can rest for a while, and let them do these things! Don't look at the dilapidated here, you don't have to live for long, we will have a new home in the future! Zhuang Yi comforted.

"It's okay! Where Lang Jun lives, the concubines will follow, and what does it matter if they are dilapidated or not. Zhao Qiuling was also tired, and said with a reluctant smile.

"Little Meixiang! You're so capable! Thank you! Zhuang Yi smiled and praised without words, but Mei Xiang ignored him angrily.

"If you add one or two more, how can you live there?" Zhao Qiuling said with some worry.

"Hah! I said that I have a new home, but I won't be until next year, and I will be wronged this year! Zhuang Yi blinked and smiled mysteriously.

"Really? So where are we moving to? Zhao Qiuling was a little puzzled.

"I'll tell you when I'm gone! I'll stay here for half a month, and then I'm going north to Xiwangya's tent, and I guess I won't be able to come back until winter, I'm really sorry for you! Zhuang Yi said.

"It's okay! You're going to Princess Alan! In fact, the concubine has already seen her! Zhao Qiuling said with a smile.

"Oh...... Do you still know each other? I understand, when she came back from Youzhou, she stayed in Yuyang for two days! ”

"Yes...... The concubine hasn't said a few words to her, but Alan is very beautiful, when did you know her? ”

"Huh...... That is, she is on her way to Youzhou! This little lady has a big temper, I guess it is comparable to Lei Niang, you are very gentle and demure, but I like it too! I don't know if the house is cleaned up, let's go in and have a look! Zhuang Yi took Zhao Qiuling's hand, and the two entered the hall.

The house had been renovated, decorated with curtains and screens, and a few decent red lacquered tables and couches, but this still did not hide the dilapidated state of the house. Zhuang Yi was also a little helpless, in his opinion, this wedding might as well be rescheduled in the future, or it would be held in a manor outside Yuyang City, but now it is really impossible to say, no matter how embarrassing it is.

Mrs. Zhang and Aunt Wang were in the backyard, and when they saw Zhuang Yi coming in, they hurriedly greeted them. Mrs. Zhang said with a smile: "Da Lang! The house has been cleaned up again, and you are tired when you only came back today, rest early, and the old body will go back! ”

"Thank you, Aunt Zhang, Aunt Wang! Go back! I'm really sorry for you! Zhuang Yi bowed and said.

"It's all your own family, Da Lang is welcome! This is the bride! The little lady of the Zhao family, it's really amazing, I just wronged you! Mrs. Zhang said with a smile, looking at Zhao Qiuling incessantly.

"Hard work lady! Thank you! Zhao Qiuling was blessed and thanked him.

Mrs. Zhang took Aunt Wang out, and the two muttered quietly as they walked, talking about Zhuang Yi's bride.

Zhuang Yi took Zhao Qiuling to look at the three bedrooms, and they were all decorated. Zhuang Yi is quite satisfied, how to say that it is much better than his previous kennel, everything is new, the Zhao family can be regarded as bleeding, and all the supplies for a wedding have been prepared within a few days, this is not something that ordinary people can do, what else is Zhuang Yi not satisfied with.

"You live here tonight, I'll live in the first room, and the other room over there will be for Mei Xiang and the three of them, you rest for a while, I'll go find someone to prepare hot water, but I'm tired."

"Thank you, husband! Let the maids do the chores! Zhao Qiuling breathed a sigh of relief, the things that he had feared along the way would finally not happen, and he immediately removed his weak and scared expression, and returned to a smile on his face.

"They are also tired, I went to find Bian Wulai, he is my disciple, he dares to be lazy!" Zhuang Yi said, turned around and went out.
