"No, I can't say yes anyway! I'm a little obscene, a little bad, but I definitely can't do something so immoral, if I do, even if I go back, no matter how good I live, I will only leave a psychological shadow. No, absolutely not! ”

With such thoughts, Lu Ren resolutely resigned to Mi Zhu. Seeing Lu Ren's resolute attitude, Mi Zhu was naturally a little disappointed in his heart, but he couldn't turn his face with Lu Ren for this matter. lowered his head and pondered for a while, Mi Zhu himself felt that this matter was indeed too sudden for Lu Ren, and it was normal for Lu Ren to not accept it all of a sudden. Rather than this, it might be better to slow things down a little bit, let Lu Ren and Mi Zhen get closer and closer, and then reintroduce this matter to Lu Ren when the time comes.

Thinking of this, Mi Zhu smiled at Lu Ren and said, "Since Yihao is unwilling, I can't force it, so I can only sigh that my little sister is blessed...... Oh yes, Yihao, this matter was just mentioned to you on a whim, and she didn't know about it, little sister. I also hope that Yihao can keep your mouth shut, don't let your little sister know, so as not to be embarrassed when you meet sooner or later. ”

Lu Renxin said that you won't have any ideas again, right? However, Lu Ren can't turn his face with Mi Zhu, after all, he still has to mix with Mi Zhu, so he can deal with the past right away. After thinking about it again, Lu Ren felt that it might be better to avoid it for a while in the past few days, because if Mi Zhen really didn't know anything, then there would be no problem in meeting and talking, but he was suddenly hit by Mi Zhu like this, and he met Mi Zhen before he adjusted his state, and Lu Ren was worried about whether he would lose his temper in words and deeds.

So after thinking about it for a while, Lu Ren said to Mi Zhu: "Don't forgive your sins, Lu Ren wants to go to the small village to live for a few days...... Oh, I haven't seen Mr. Li for a long time, and I miss him a little strangely. ”

Lu Ren's excuse was really bad, but Mi Zhu also understood that Lu Ren needed a little time to calm down, so as not to be embarrassed when he met Mi Zhen, so he nodded and agreed. But after thinking about it a little more, Mi Zhu asked: "Yihao, you already expected that Cao Gong would attack Xuzhou on a large scale, but you went to live outside the city for a few days at this time, would this be inappropriate?" ”

Lu Ren responded confidently: "It's okay, it's okay. According to the following opinion, although Cao Gong's attack on Xuzhou was necessary, he could not raise troops at least a month later. First of all, in terms of distance, the land of Hua and Fei is between Gon and Xu, and there is little difference between the two, we got the news of the murder of Taiwei Cao today, and Cao Gong should have just gotten it. Then Cao Gong inevitably had to mobilize soldiers, horses, money and food and issue a document on revenge and revenge, which also took a few days, and then calculated the distance from Gunzhou to Xuzhou, I went to live outside the city for a few days. ”

After a pause, Lu Ren continued: "The most important thing is that it is still the middle of summer, and it is the time when the green and yellow are not harvested, and the military rations in the territory of Cao Gong have not yet been collected. The army has no food to eat, how can this army come out? Therefore, I concluded that Cao Gong should raise troops to attack Xuzhou after autumn...... Oh, Tao Fujun, you can say these words without driving. With this month or so, it should be enough for Tao Fujun to make some preparations. ”

Mi Zhu nodded with satisfaction: "It's still Yihao who thinks thoughtfully." In this way, I will buy more wine, meat, fruits and vegetables, and you can take them to the village to share them with Li Lao and the villagers. Look at the almost, you hurry up and take Li Lao to take refuge in the city. As for the villagers in the village, if you can persuade them, persuade them to come to the city for refuge together, and my Mi clan should accept and settle down. ”

Lu Renxin said that if those villagers were brought to you by me, wouldn't you have a lot of servants and tenant farmers? After all, you are a businessman, and you are quite able to make profits. However, if he could save a few more people, Lu Ren was also quite willing, so he said goodbye to Mi Zhu immediately, took the things Mi Zhu gave him, and ran back to the village.

Of course, Elder Li was very happy to see Lu Ren, Lu Ren came back with so many things, and he also had a little bit of the taste of returning to his hometown, and he would inevitably show off it, and then distribute the wine and meat to the people in the village, which made this small village seem to be celebrating a festival for a while.

After messing around, Lu Ren lay down on the mud kang where he was sleeping, and after twisting his body a few times very comfortably, Lu Ren couldn't help but laugh at himself secretly: "It seems that I am really a cheap bone!" I haven't slept on this mud kang straw for some days, but now when I lie down, I actually feel more comfortable than the high bed warm pillow in Mizhu...... It's just that it's hot now, and there are more mosquitoes. Okay, go to Old Man Li to get some wormwood to burn. "Wormwood, a kind of lavender used by the ancients to repel mosquitoes.

As soon as he turned over and sat up, Li Lao just pushed the door and entered. After the two of them exchanged a few polite words, Li Lao sat down on Lu Ren's mud kang, and hesitated for a long time before asking, "Ah Ren, did you come back this time to see my old bones, or did you say ......?"

Lu Ren shook his head: "Come back and stay for three or five days, it should be a vacation." I'll have to go back to Mi Bei in a few days. ”

Li Lao sighed and said: "I know that your kid is a capable person, sooner or later he will be able to make a face, this small village will definitely not be able to keep you." But Ah Ren, you're already twenty-two this year, right? ”

Lu Ren said: "Almost." Old man Li, why did you suddenly remember to ask this? ”

Li Lao said: "Old man, aren't I worried about your life's events?" Twenty-two years old, not small! You can see a few of the descendants in the village, who married wives at the age of sixteen or seventeen, and had children in their twenties on their heads. Although I haven't read a book, old man, I also know that there are three unfilial pieties, and there is no queen for the greatest. It's a pity that my mother-in-law died of illness a long time ago, and I didn't leave a man and a woman for the old man, and no mother-in-law was willing to marry me, so that the old man is now a lonely person. Now that I see that you have reached such an age, I don't want you to be like the old man and me...... Hey, what do you think of the daughter of the Wang family in the east of the village? The body is strong, and the fart/thigh is big and round, and it is absolutely good to marry. ”

“……”

Lu Ren has no wine or water in his mouth, otherwise he will definitely be able to squirt out for several meters. The heart said what happened to me today? I was just mentioned by Mi Zhu during the day, why did this matter come out again at night when Old Man Li came here? Peach Blossom doesn't take such a crime, right? Why haven't I crossed before?

However, as soon as he remembered the daughter of the Wang family that Old Man Li said, Lu Renke shuddered. is about 1.5 meters tall, but he weighs about 80 kilograms by visual inspection, and his appearance is also comparable to Sister Feng, an absolute dinosaur. Lu Ren didn't have a good cabbage to arch, and if he didn't have a conscience, the first cabbage of the Mi family could be arched, where would he be able to see that dinosaur? Of course, it was desperately shaking his head to show his refusal, and it was a strong refusal.

Elder Li snorted very dissatisfied: "You kid, what are you thinking?" ”

Lu Ren smiled dryly: "You don't have to worry about these things of mine, okay?" Besides, I have the ability to do it, and I'm afraid that I won't find my mother-in-law to warm my bed and sleep? Okay, it's not too early, I see you've drunk a lot of wine, so go back to the house and go to bed early. After speaking, Lu Ren fell on the kang, closed his eyes tightly, and didn't dare to talk to Li Lao again.

Li Lao paused and moved his mouth towards Lu Ren, obviously wanting to say something more, but in the end he still didn't say it. In the end, Li Lao just shook his head and sighed again, turned around and prepared to walk out the door. However, as soon as he walked to the door, Li Lao turned around, took out a handful of wormwood from behind his waist and lit it, and limped around Lu Ren's room before exiting the room.

Lu Ren didn't fall asleep again, squinting his eyes and watching Li Lao finish this, but his heart trembled slightly. In fact, in Lu Ren's subconscious, Mi Zhu and Mi Zhen are both good to themselves, but they can only be regarded as the kind of relationship between good bosses, but this Li Lao really has the meaning of elders and relatives. After all, no matter what you say, Lu Ren and Li Lao have also lived together for more than a month.

"Alas...... After a few days, the deceit will have to trick you into going to the city, so that you can avoid this catastrophe. For the next three and a half years, I can always help you get enough to eat. Just like you, you're chopping a fart of firewood! ”

――――――――――――――――――――

In the blink of an eye, Lu Ren had already lived in the village for four days. Anyway, Cao Cao didn't call so quickly, Lu Ren brought a lot of grain and rice when he came, and Lu Ren really didn't want to run into Mi Zhen so soon, so it didn't matter if he stayed in the village for three or five more days. Besides, I have been in Tancheng City for a long time, and I am bored for a long time, and now I run back to the village to live for a few days, and I will enjoy the joy of the countryside when I have a little vacation.

It was dusk again, and Lu Ren was lying on the small mound where he used to lie before, with a dog's tail grass in his mouth, and his eyes slightly closed to enjoy the cool evening breeze at dusk in summer. Maybe it was because it was too comfortable, Lu Ren was actually a little drowsy.

Just when he was so groggy, Lu Ren suddenly felt that the ground under him trembled slightly, and it felt as if something was shaking the earth not far away.

"Earthquake? No way? In the history books, if there was an earthquake in Xuzhou at this time, there would definitely be a record, and if there was an earthquake, Cao Cao would definitely not have brought troops over. They are superstitious and will think that this is the wrath of the gods, and if they bring troops over, they will anger the gods again...... Well? How does this movement look like a horse's hooves? ”

Leaning sideways, Lu Ren put his ear to the ground. Of course, Lu Ren doesn't know how to listen to the sound closely, and it is impossible to be like some professionals in film and television, just by listening to the voice, you can know what is coming in the distance. The main thing is that this movement is indeed too obvious, and Lu Ren can always hear something.

After listening carefully, Lu Ren heard a muffled sound of "boom, boom, boom", and vaguely felt that it should be the sound of a large number of horses' hooves stepping on the ground.

"Strange, where are there so many horses? Xuzhou is the Central Plains and not a grassland, and there are no wild horses. Could it be the cavalry troops mobilized by Tao Qian? But I remember that Tao Qian's army was mainly composed of Danyang soldiers, and they were basically infantry...... Wait, cavalry!? ”

As soon as he thought of the word "cavalry", Lu Ren jumped up from the ground and looked in the direction of the sound through the afterglow of the dusk sunset. And under this look, Lu Ren shouted on the spot: "How is it possible!?" It's not June yet! Why did they come here!? ”
