"Grandpa Xie Guo gave me a puzzle, I have always felt that God is unfair, why treat me so poorly, today I heard Grandpa Guo say this, it turns out that King Chuang's failure is caused by himself, so the little woman can also see it."

As Mrs. Gao spoke, she stood up and saluted Luo Jian, and Luo Jian quickly got up and saluted back.

"I don't know what Madame's plans are now, according to my meaning, it's better to settle down in Yangzhou, you can rest assured, everything in the past has passed, and you are ordinary people in Yangzhou." If you want to do something for the development of Yangzhou in the future, we warmly welcome it, and if you just want to live a peaceful life, this is no problem. ”

Luo Jian said in his mouth, thinking in his heart that in this era, it is not easy to be a woman, and it is even more difficult to be a woman who is a "thief".

"Is what Grandpa Guo said serious?" The red lady finally spoke, Luo Jian heard that her voice was very similar to Mrs. Xing, and he became more and more sure that she and Mrs. Xing were family.

"Of course it's true, dare to ask Mrs. Li's maiden family name?" Luo Jian asked.

"The little woman's maiden name is Xing, why did Grandpa Guo ask this?" When the red lady heard Mrs. Li's statement, she and Li Yan basically eloped, and no one clearly recognized that she and Li Yan were husband and wife in this era.

"Then dare to ask Xing Xiuniang, have Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Li ever met?" Luo Jian asked.

"Grandpa Guo, this slut is also in Yangzhou? I'm going to kill her! The red lady stood up suddenly, her pretty face showed a cold light, and said hatefully, and Mrs. Gao also showed a strange look on her face.

"Please Mrs. Li don't be impatient, we have a saying like this, 'The brothers who have survived the catastrophe are here, and they meet with a smile and a grudge', you are sisters, right? The past is in the past, so why should Mrs. Li care about everything in the past? Luo Jian said with a smile.

After listening to Luo Jian's words, the red lady sat down, but the hatred on her face did not go away.

"Sister Red Lady, I am also a woman, in this era, I really think that we women are the most pitiful, men regard us as dispensable appendages, up to the emperor and generals, down to a rich man, which is not three wives and four concubines, and how many have true love for these wives and concubines? On the contrary, I think Gao Jie is really good to Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Xing has been with Gao Jie all these years, maybe the happiest years of her life, right? Why did my sister blame Gao Jie's rebellion on a woman? ”

Liu Lan saw that the red lady refused to forgive Mrs. Xing, so she continued Luo Jian's words and explained, listening to Mrs. Gao and the red lady silently.

"Mrs. Gao, Sister Red Lady, should we women really become men's playthings? No! I don't think so, if we women want to be affordable to men, we must first look up to ourselves. Mrs. Xing is now a little famous in the business community of Yangzhou, after coming to Yangzhou, she runs a printing house, and now she is doing very vigorously, not only feeding a large group of veterans in the former Gao Jie army, but also making her own contribution to the development of Yangzhou. ”

Mrs. Gao lowered her head and was silent when she heard this, but the matchmaker showed an unconvinced look on her face.

Luo Jian saw the red lady's expression, his heart moved, thinking that the red lady used to be from a juggling team, and she was very good at acting, and she didn't have the idea that women couldn't show their heads at this time, and thought that if she could form a literary and artistic propaganda team, it would be an excellent candidate.

"Mrs. Li, I don't know who is the elder sister between you and Mrs. Xing?" Luo Jian asked with a smile.

"Hmph, she's a sister." The red lady said angrily.

"My sister is so good, my sister really can't be weaker than my sister, I don't know what Mrs. Li plans to do in the future? Do you have any ideas for making a career in Yangzhou? ”

"I want to lead the troops, can Grandpa Guo allow me to lead a group of soldiers and horses to fight against the Tartars?" The red lady said heroically.

"Sure enough, it was the women who didn't let the eyebrows, Luo admired! However, Mrs. Li, what the current Yangzhou army needs most is not the generals who fight on the battlefield, but..."Luo Jian deliberately wanted to speak and stopped.

"And what do you need?" The red lady really asked in a hurry.

"Our country, our nation is now facing the most critical juncture of life and death, the Manchu Tatars enslaved our heart of the whole of China has been revealed, Luo and a group of people who do not want to be slaves rose up to fight, although we have achieved some victories, but our strength is still very weak compared with the Manchu Qing, which requires us to wake up more people to join us, strengthen our strength, and jointly resist foreign invasion."

Listening to Luo Jian's words, the red lady showed a puzzled look on her face, thought for a while, and then asked, "What does Grandpa Guo mean by this?" Could it be that the little girl should be the one who wakes everyone up? ”

"Mrs. Li really has a good heart, Luo has long wanted to set up a literary and artistic propaganda team, using drama, singing and dancing and other forms to publicize the general public, expose the brutal acts of the Manchu Tartars, and inspire the determination and courage of the general public to fight against the Tartars, I wonder if Mrs. Li is willing to take on this heavy responsibility?"

When Luo Jian said this, he was a little worried.

"Grandpa Guo asked the little woman to go and do that drama again?" Sure enough, the red lady's face was not worried, and she said with a frown.

"How is this a joke? If this thing is done well, its achievements will not be under General Qin Liangyu Qin, I have a song here, I will sing it to everyone, if you think this is sung by the actors to entertain people, we will not say it again. Liu Lan was anxious when she heard this.

"Get up! Those who do not want to be slaves have built our flesh and blood into our new Great Wall..."

After Liu Lan finished speaking, she stood up and sang for everyone, Luo Jian heard it, and also stood up and sang with Liu Lan, Liu Lan's voice was crisp, Luo Jian's voice was strong, and she sang a national song very sonorously.

When the red lady heard this, her face suddenly softened and fell into deep thought.

As soon as Luo Jian saw that there was a door, he quickly asked people to turn on the generator, set up the projector and screen, went upstairs and hugged the laptop, and found a few classic songs and dramas from the Anti-Japanese War for everyone to watch.

Mrs. Gao, the Red Lady and others watched it, and after being surprised, they all fell into songs and dramas.

After Luo Jian turned off the computer and let people clean up, the red lady came to her senses and asked, "Grandpa Guo let us play these things?" ”

"Exactly, Mrs. Li is willing to make a contribution to the great cause of resisting the Qing Dynasty?" Luo Jian asked with a smile.

"Can the little girl think about a thing or two?" The red lady said hesitantly.

"We will not have the slightest reluctance on this, everything is left to Mrs. Li's will. Steward Luo, you settle Mrs. Gao and them first, go and invite Mrs. Xing over, and arrange a banquet for Mrs. Gao and her party in the evening, and your sisters should also be reunited. ”

The small courtyard that used to house Song Yingxing is still empty, and Steward Luo settled Mrs. Gao and her party in it for a while.

Waiting for Steward Luo and the others to leave, Mrs. Gao had a chance to talk with the Red Lady and the others.

"Madam, it's strange that I think this Metropolitan knows everything about us." The red lady said to Mrs. Gao.

"Didn't they all say that they were all messengers sent from heaven, and it wouldn't be surprising to know about us? Are you really going to do this 'literary and artistic propaganda' thing? Mrs. Gao said.

"Madam, I think what this Metropolitan Governor said is very reasonable, now we Han people are really about to become slaves of the Manchu Tartars, and we all have to do something for the great cause of resisting the Qing Dynasty. The Yangzhou army is invincible, and it is not my turn to go into battle to kill the enemy, so I think it is good to wake up everyone in this way to resist the Tartars. ”

The red lady has already figured out this truth, and she has to promise Luo Jian to form a literary and artistic propaganda team.

"Well, if you want to do it, do it, this Metropolitan Governor has no intention of discriminating against our Dashun Army and women, and I don't think I will treat you as playthings, if you can make results, you can be famous in history."

Mrs. Gao said in her mouth, but her heart was a little desolate, where will she go in the future, she is really helpless to think about it, she is really in Yangzhou to retire? But I'm not even forty.

"Madame, what are your plans for the future?" Seeing the look on Mrs. Gao's face, the red lady understood what she was thinking, so she asked.

"I don't know, what else can we do as a woman?" Mrs. Gao said helplessly.

"If Mrs. Gao intends to do things, there are many things, there is now a quilt factory outside Yangzhou, all women are doing things, and now I am in charge, but I have too many things to do, and I can't be busy, can Mrs. help me?" While the two were talking, Liu Lan's voice came from the door.

When the two saw Liu Lan coming in, they hurriedly got up to greet each other.

It turned out that Mrs. Xing was about to arrive, and Luo Jian was afraid that she would have another conflict with Mrs. Gao and the Red Lady after she came, so he asked Liu Lan to come over.

"We women have to be self-reliant, men do men's things, and we also have our own careers, so that we don't rely on men to survive, what do you think?" After Liu Lan came in, she sat down and said to the two.

Seeing that Mrs. Gao was silent, Liu Lan continued: "Some of the technology of this quilt factory has to be kept secret from the outside world, and the management is extremely strict, the factory is full of women and daughters of military families, Mrs. Gao has been in the army for a long time, it is appropriate to come and do these things, I will take Mrs. to the factory another day to see, and then make a decision?" ”

When Mrs. Gao heard this, she quickly nodded and agreed, and Liu Lan was also extremely happy to see that the matter was complete.

After a while, Mrs. Xing led her son Gao Yuanzhao to arrive, Mrs. Gao had gone through hardships, but she could see it, but the red lady still said a few words with hatred, and finally the sisters still hugged each other and cried, Gao Yuanzhao also stepped forward to worship his aunt, and the page of the past was finally turned over.

With the strong support of Luo Jian, there is no shortage of funds and talents, and Liulan has added a few nights of work in a row to prepare some scripts and repertoire for them, so that they can rehearse first.

Mrs. Gao's ability to lead troops to fight is not good, but managing a quilt factory is not a problem, Liu Lan followed it for a few days, and she really put her mind at ease and handed over the quilt factory to Mrs. Gao.

This year's winter came much later than last year, everyone felt that the sky was going to change, Luo Jian knew that this was a sign that the Xiaoice River period was coming to an end, and the temperature would rise rapidly next year. According to historical records, there will be a lot of rain next year, and the water network in the north of the river will be criss-crossed, and the losses caused by the flood will be very serious.

Luo Jian went to discuss with Shi Kefa today, just to take precautions and take precautions, and when he arrived at Shi Kefa's mansion, he saw that the imperial court sent someone to come.
