PS: Guo Xu sat for a long time, and suddenly he was empowered and the sun was shining, so he jumped up with a shout, and wanted to rush out in a flash, but he forgot that the lintel was shorter than him, and he fell to the ground firmly. Xiao Qiao and the little girl exclaimed at the same time, and were about to step forward to help him, but he had already turned over like a rabbit with a head, laughed, and stumbled out. Little Pretty heard the door knock, and then heard the horses neighing happily, and the horses' hooves rolled away like spring thunder.

Her heart pounded, and she looked at the lintel stupidly.

This man is really sturdy, and he actually flew away alive when he crashed into that.

Xiao Qiao woke up, lay on the bed and watched the room turn from dark to light, listening to a few sparrows chattering outside the window.

To go out or not to go out today?

There's enough money to spend. When Liu Yu led the army to leave Tongguan, Tuo Ding Yi sent money and grain. Ding Yi said that after Chang'an was taken, the Taiwei would send someone to pick up the girl back. But Xiaoqiao really wanted to take this opportunity to get out of Liu Yu's sight. In the past few days, she has been asking from shop to shop in Tongguan Market, wondering which one to hire people, but every day in vain. As soon as the war stopped, many stores in Tongguan were not opened. The inns, grain stores, and coffin shops that have been opened all want strong and powerful men. The owner of a pharmacy heard that Xiao Qiao could write and calculate, but he revealed a little bit of the meaning that you might as well try it, but the stupid proprietress looked at Xiao Qiao, her face changed from sunny to cloudy, and she immediately thanked the boss for her. Xiao Qiao immediately became enlightened, turned around and left, and didn't go out a few steps before she heard the proprietress erupt in anger, and shouted at the man and said Look at the look of your eyes just now! One day she was tired of walking and ate at a small noodle restaurant on the street. happened to meet a few officers and soldiers who stayed in Tongguan Beifu, and the one who took the lead knew who she was. Hearing that she was looking for an errand to stay in Tongguan, she shook her head again and again. said that this place was born to be a place of war, maybe one day the fight will start again, you can't live steadily, or you should go to Chang'an to marry a serious person to live.

Speaking of getting married, she was surprised to find that even in such a chaotic moment, the matchmaker was still very active. Two days after she swaggered in the market, someone immediately came to her door following the smell of fat powder. One day she was writing at home when a middle-aged woman knocked on her door and visited. Entered the door. looked Xiao Qiao up and down a hundred times with burning eyes. Then he said that there was a local businessman who used to be Yao Qin's official, but later resigned from the official to start business because he offended his boss. I hid in the countryside of Hongnong a while ago, and now I'm back. Relying on the officialdom contacts accumulated over the years, and doing the horse and grain business at the same time, the trade has long been made in Guanzhong, there is a whole street of industry in Tongguan, and there are two mansions in Chang'an. Each of the dozen or so carriages used horses of the same color, and the maids in the family were all dressed in gold and silver, and legend has it that the night pots were inlaid with precious stones. This person already has a three-room wife, but a third of them are old. The son who had died of illness some years ago; Two-thirds of them did not have children, and one gave birth to two daughters in succession. Now this man is full of desire to take a concubine and give birth to a handle. The matchmaker said that girl, you have a handsome face and body, although you are going to be a concubine. The old body will charm him as soon as you go, and let him hold you in the palm of his hand like a pearl. If you give him another son. The mother is more precious than the son, and his wealth is as innumerable as the stars. Isn't it all yours?

Xiaoqiao was not in a hurry to get married, let alone marry a person who was much older than her father to be a concubine. She herself is not averse to concubines, her mother is her father's concubine, but who is her father? Mother also said that ordinary women "would rather be ordinary wives than heroic concubines", and what they want is to be a woman and be in charge of the boudoir. But only with a truly suave hero can you experience the realm that the boudoir of the market can't experience. If it's a concubine for someone like my father, it doesn't hurt. But if being a concubine means giving birth to a son in a hurry to a local rich man who is half-cut into the earth, and then wearing gold and silver and being widowed, and spending this life in the vicious plot of the women in each room, then forget it!

Besides, who knows I can't marry a hero wife?

If I wanted to, I would be the wife of a young hero.

Ask yourself: Are you waiting for him to come?

It's hard to tell.

But there is no doubt that you can't give yourself to this clever matchmaker.

The matchmaker touched the nail, but she was defeated and not discouraged, and came almost every day after that. She seems to have an infinite number of male resources in her hands. Don't you like the old one, there is a son of a big businessman! Don't like to be a concubine? The teacher continues the strings! Do you like to be literate? There is a local fortune teller who has read a lot of books, don't underestimate his livelihood, people have to break the fortune if they want to eliminate disasters, and the money comes quickly. Later, Xiaoqiao was annoyed, and she couldn't stop her from coming back like a tide, and finally simply went to the town to ask for help. The town general knew that she was the one who was taken care of by Liu Yu, and immediately sent a few soldiers to guard it. This time, as soon as the matchmaker came to the door, she was stopped by several fierce and vicious strong men, who said that if you dare to knock on this courtyard door again, knock on the left hand with your left hand, and chop off your right hand with your right hand, and cut off which leg crosses the threshold. The matchmaker lost her color and went away. Since the Northern Expedition, the soldiers of Beifu have not committed any crimes, and they have been careful to treat the people of Guanzhong.

Xiaoqiao's door has stopped, but when she goes to the city again, everyone respects her and stays away. Obviously, the matchmaker has created public opinion, that is, this beautiful girl has been favored by the military master, everyone must be careful, do not talk at will, so as not to provoke the military master to chop his hands and legs.

To go out or not to go out today?

The two little girls had already gotten up and began to sweep the courtyard and prepare breakfast, and the two of them were talking in a whisper, talking about something interesting, and giggling.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Her first reaction was that the matchmaker had made a comeback, but the idea was immediately extinguished. The matchmaker didn't have the guts.

The second reaction was that Liu Yu sent someone to pick her up. I had already sat up, but I sighed at the thought of this and poured back into the pillow. The entire Guanzhong has fallen into Liu Yu's palm, and it is more powerful to jump out than to climb to the sky.

The little girl opened the door, and she heard a loud and honest voice:

"Is Miss Sun up?"

She was electrified by the voice!

Chaoyang who came in through the window saw Xiaoqiao first pull the quilt and wrap her body and cover her face, and then lifted the quilt in a panic and turned over and got out of bed. Dressed up with an action that was incredibly fast, and found a shoe with both feet to get into. I threw myself in front of the mirror and tied my hair, just about to scoop out cold water to wash my face and rinse my mouth, despite the cold of early autumn. Suddenly realized that he couldn't meet people in a hurry like this, so he pushed open the window and asked the little girl who was coming.

The little girl said that it was Guo Xu, the leader of the Guo team, who asked to see him.

Xiao Qiao was electrocuted by the name again. Subconsciously pressed his heart with his hand, saying that you let Team Master Guo in, make him a cup of tea, and I want to wash up.

I heard Guo Xu say a little wolf-like and said no need, I'll take a walk outside and come back in half an hour.

Xiaoqiao was a little relieved, but a little disappointed.

Rush to see and not to rush. There is a half-hour diaphragm in the middle.

She took off the clothes she had changed in a hurry, checked in the baggage for a long time, and finally decided to wear the white powder-trimmed dress she wore on the night of the dinner next to Guo Xu.

A little light makeup, a white dress, a pink belt around the waist, pear blossoms dancing lightly among the peach blossoms.

Guo Xu is still so tall and straight. If you don't look down when you enter the door, you will hit your head.

But I always feel that he looks obedient, and I can't tell what's wrong. He wore no armor, just a clean robe. As soon as he sat down on the bed, the sleeves of his robe were tightly tied around his shoulders and waist, and it looked as if he had been tied up with five flowers. Xiao Qiao suddenly came to her senses:

"Are you wearing your own robe? How does it fit so badly! ”

Guo Xu opened his mouth in surprise:

"How do you know?"

When he set out from Chang'an. I was wearing a new shirt, but yesterday's encounter. The robes were stained with blood. After arriving at Tongguan, I couldn't wash it clean after washing it with cold water for a long time. He didn't want to be in such a speckled outfit to see Xiaoqiao. But none of the officers and soldiers here in Tongguan have the same physique as him, and the last one he found is already General Liba.

Xiao Qiao heard that Guo Xu finished talking about what happened on the road, and she was frightened and happy. If this boy has three longs and two shorts because of picking her up, she will feel guilty for the rest of her life. Thankfully, God willing, he came unscathed.

The little girl brought tea and breakfast.

Guo Xu was accustomed to the rough morning and evening life in the army, and for the first time in these years, he had breakfast in a private house. Two hu beds, a desk, a few lacquerware plates, a few side dishes, a nest of white porridge, a plate of freshly baked hu cakes, and the faint sound of a teapot boiling next door. What's more, there is a girl on the other side that he thinks about day and night.

Suddenly realized how much the beauty of the world was missing out on as a soldier.

I suddenly realized how much I longed to live a peaceful life like this.

As soon as he raised his head, he happened to meet Sun Qiao's eyes, and as soon as the two eyes met, they immediately moved away, but both faces were a little red.

In the end, Sun Qiao is more in control, she picked up a chopstick pickle and put it on Guo Xu's plate, looking for what he could say and asked:

"What's Chang'an like?"

Guo Xu suddenly came to the spirit. Chang'an, it's big, I'm the first to break in. My brother and I are crazy, by the way, his name is actually Feng Zizhang, but we all call him crazy. I rushed around Chang'an City with the madman and didn't meet a single Qin army. There are 100 times more shops in Chang'an City than in Tongguan, but most of them are not open, and it took several days to start trading, which scared me at the beginning. Do you know? And those who sell live tigers! Obediently, the tiger is scared to death through the cage. There are also many people who look completely different from us, with high noses and deep eye sockets, not black eyes, not black hair, and open their mouths to speak as if their tongues are bent. They were selling jewels, and one man pulled me to sell me a ruby the size of an egg, and when I heard the price, it was not enough to add up to the salaries of the whole team for a year. Turning to leave, he immediately lowered the price, and a horse could be bought for the money. Then I can't afford it, I'll go. He shoved the gem into my hand and said that he would buy it for the price of a bow. I originally wanted to buy it for you, but then I thought that the price of such a big gem would be fake, so I didn't buy it, and the man jumped behind and said that I was happy to find him. Did you say I was almost fooled? I used to think that only we were in the south of the Yangtze River with water everywhere, but I didn't expect Chang'an to be full of water, and we also took the boat used by Yao Hong. Do you know, it was me and the madman, and the two of us opened the door of Yao Hong's palace. At first, I thought there would be a feather forest riding out. They were all ready to die, but they didn't expect it to be the army. It's a eunuch. It's the first time I've seen a eunuch when I'm so old. Haha, they talk the same way you women. Yao Hong's palace is so big. Everywhere there are pillars, everywhere there are curtains. There was a blanket on the ground, and I didn't dare to walk, thinking that if I took a step, I would fall into the pit. I went into Yao Hong's study and looked, oh my God! If a person can read so many books in his life, isn't his eyes going blind. If only you were here, there must be a lot of books you like.

He babbled about it, Xiao Qiao sat up straight and listened to it reservedly at first, and then listened to the various adventures of this honest little blacksmith in the flower world of Chang'an City. and his fussy reaction, he really couldn't hold it, first grinned, then leaned forward and closed, and finally laughed until his stomach hurt, begging Guo Xu not to say anything.

But as he spoke, Guo Xu couldn't be happy. He said that Yao Hong's crown prince, Yao Fonian, jumped off the city wall, and the little corpse was drowned in a pool of blood; Speaking of the slaughter of the Yao and Qin royal families, the Wei River is invisible; When it comes to the wife and son of the great hero Yao Shao, they refused to be pardoned. When the family died on the edge of the Wei River, he lowered his head, and big tears fell in the tea bowl in front of him.

Xiao Qiao was already sobbing silently.

The tragedy of destroying the door, not to mention Yao Hong.

She herself is a survivor of this doom.

Through the hazy teary eyes. She saw Guo Xu's headband trembling slightly.

I thought this was a rough and bold reckless man, striking iron forward, and now fighting. Like all soldiers in troubled times, they have long been killed and hardened their livers and lungs. There is not a trace of softness of heart. But I didn't expect him to have compassion and be willing to cry for the enemy.

Xiao Qiao bypassed the case. Walked up to Guo Xu and sat down, turned his face, and wiped his tears with his sleeve.

When his fingers touched Guo Xu's cheek, the big boy's whole body stiffened.

If there is a magic power that can fix this pair of soft hands on his face, he would rather go on like this, for thousands of years, like a monk sitting down.

Suddenly remembering something, he reached into his chest and took out a small cloth bag.

Xiao Qiao watched as he carefully unwrapped the small bag and spread it out on the table. Inside was a delicate small bronze mirror and a comb, which had been broken in two.

Guo Xu said that yesterday I was shot an arrow in the chest by Yao Qin's stragglers, and if it weren't for this mirror, I wouldn't be able to sit here, but the comb was also broken.

Xiao Qiao exclaimed. Just now Guo Xu talked about the encounter on the road, but he didn't mention anything about him being hit by an arrow, and he was an arrow in the chest. She subconsciously reached out to look at his chest, and when her hand was halfway through, she retracted suddenly, and her face was hot all of a sudden. Fortunately, Guo Xu was lowering his head to put away the small cloth bag, and he didn't notice the small action just now.

The small bronze mirror carried Guo Xu's body temperature, warm. Xiaoqiao looked at herself in the mirror and saw a face mixed with joy and sorrow. Guo Xu picked up the comb and smiled apologetically:

"I promised to give Miss Sun the best comb. I did get it, the one I took in the Qin Palace, a silver comb, inlaid with tortoiseshell and precious stones, and with the girl's hair, it was very beautiful. ”

Xiao Qiao had used such a comb in Jiangnan before, and she was not moved by it, but Guo Xu said "with the girl's hair", which shows that he has admired this green silk for a long time, and he can't help but be a little proud. I just don't understand how such a luxurious comb can become such an inconspicuous mahogany object.

"After those concubines of the Qin State were killed, I began to feel that I was very inauthentic. Even if you win the battle, you shouldn't take other people's things, not to mention the comb of the owner of the comb, which I threw into the Wei River later, and I bought it at my own expense in the shop, with a winged bird on it, I thought"

Guo Xu stopped abruptly.

A trace of calm joy rose in Xiaoqiao's heart.

This tower-like boy is not only delicate, but also noble, although he is only a blacksmith.

Thinking of the drifting of the south, north, south and north over the years, how many men have I seen in the civil and military forces, how many of them are truly compassionate? Those literati who write a thousand words, sell high-quality literature, rely on hard reading or talent, write good articles, and yearn for Luoyang paper to be expensive, in exchange for good land and beautiful houses; Medium-grade plagiarism, relying on plagiarism and plagiarized words to speculate everywhere, pointing to a vassal and elegant dignitary to appreciate, seeking a position as a guest of honor, and also getting ahead; The inferior sells the soul, relies on whistleblowing to expose, betrays the chief, betrays colleagues, betrays relatives and friends, and climbs up by stepping on other people's heads. Those who are good warriors, who sell their generals, drive soldiers like sheep to drive their own helmets with their blood; Zhongpin plays with knives, treats people as vegetables, kills people in exchange for money, and takes his life to support his wife and children; Inferior to be a bandit, although in the army, there is no reins, no matter in the enemy's territory, no matter in the enemy's territory, if there is a chance, he will be captive and rape, and the fish and flesh are old and weak. This vast and stale chaotic world is like a big dye vat, and nine out of ten good people will be dyed into villains. The boy in front of him was covered with blood, but his heart was like a lotus, and he had a wind of mud and not staining.

Xiaoqiao's floating and rotating heart fell steadily on the morning of Tongguan at this moment.

There's no need to look for the right person.

Looking at the shell, he is indeed not the wishful Langjun that Xiao Qiao originally dreamed of; But he has enough to entrust his life, and that is goodness. His goodness is so powerful that it hasn't been smoothed out after years of killing.

A rough billet, but it can be made into a vessel, worthy of a little bit to shape the calcination.

Yes, he is Liu Yu's man. But that's no longer a big deal. Xiao Qiao would tell him all the qiē, and she could even imagine Guo Xu's expression after learning that story.

Thinking of this, he picked up a section of the broken comb and handed it over.

A hint of panic flashed in Guo Xu's eyes.

Xiao Qiao took his hand, put the comb in the palm of his hand, and curled up his fingers so that they could protect the comb tightly. Guo Xu looked dazed. Seeing that he was so sluggish, Xiao Qiao smiled and sighed:

"My Guo Brigade Master, you are so stupid, I really don't know how your captain can rest assured that the army will be handed over to you. From now on, you and I will each take a comb, and no one is allowed to lose it, understand? ”

Guo Xu didn't know the essentials, but when he saw that Sun Qiao was very serious, he carefully put the comb back into the small cloth pocket and hung it on his chest.

The two little girls were obviously eavesdropping outside, and by now they had understood the intention of the love token, while the big officer was still ignorant, and he couldn't help but snicker.

Xiao Qiao returned to the opposite side of the desk and sat down:

"Team Leader Guo, let's go!"

Guo Xu suddenly received an eviction order, almost shocked, and didn't know what he had done wrong. He was still immersed in the joy of Shicai, cold water had been poured on his head, his hands and feet were at a loss, and he was about to say something, Sun Qiao picked up the chopsticks and tapped lightly on the back of his hand, as if a private school teacher was teaching a stubborn and stupid schoolchild:

"Didn't you come to pick me up? Why don't you hurry up and get ready for carriages! I want a good car and a good horse, the kind that is spacious, not bumpy, and can hold out the dust! You have to bring more people, and don't let some stragglers and bandits robber robber robber me halfway. ”

After a slight pause:

"You didn't have a woman in the first place!"

After saying it so boldly, he suddenly blushed and lowered his head.

Guo Xu sat for a long time, and suddenly he was empowered and the sun was shining, so he jumped up with a shout, and was about to rush out, but he forgot that the lintel was shorter than him, and he fell to the ground firmly. Xiao Qiao and the little girl exclaimed at the same time, and were about to step forward to help him, but he had already turned over like a rabbit with a head, laughed, and stumbled out. Little Pretty heard the door knock, and then heard the horses neighing happily, and the horses' hooves rolled away like spring thunder.

Her heart pounded, and she looked at the lintel stupidly.

This man is really sturdy, and he actually flew away alive when he crashed into that. (To be continued......)
