Chapter 139: Poor
Min Yan was taken by Mr. Hu, and walked more and more out, and couldn't help but wonder, "Mr. Hu, why did you bring me out?" ”
Mr. Hu was a little embarrassed and said, "County Lord, I'm really sorry, the old man forgot to tell the County Lord, it's too hot in the cave, and those men don't have any clothes." ”
Min Yan nodded, just now in it, I did feel a little stuffy, this is still nothing, those people are all out of strength, naturally they will only feel hotter.
It's just that she wonders, why did Mr. Hu deliberately say this to her?
Thinking of her reputation, Min-yeon was clear.
"Mr. Hu, rest assured, the county lord has not been hungry to this point."
It means she's very picky.
was misinterpreted like this, Mr. Hu was speechless, shouldn't the average little girl be full of shyness, why didn't this county lord play cards according to common sense? Thinking of the cold face of his general.
So, Mr. Hu said with a bitter face, "County Lord, they are all rough men, aren't they afraid of staining the eyes of the County Lord?" ”
"The lord of this county is not so squeamish, and he will not be blamed."
As he spoke, he went inside again.
It happened that Shen Cheng also came out at this time.
"I've already seen it, it's full of smoke and dust, and it's full of sweat, if the county lord doesn't dislike it, you can go and see it."
Min Yan paused, hesitated, and finally waved her hand and said, "Forget it, forget it, since the general has already read it, the princess will not suffer that crime, you can just tell me about the general situation." ”
The corners of Shen Cheng's mouth rose slightly.
"Let's find a clean place and talk to the county lord slowly!"
Min-yeon looked around and saw what was clean here.
It's the other courtyard over there, although it has been built, and all the furniture has gone in, but there are only a few nursing homes, and there is not even a girl who makes tea.
They came out in disguise again, and it was even more difficult to go to the mother-in-law.
Minyeon regretted a little that she didn't bring the camellia out.
If she was there, she wouldn't have to think about it.
Shen Cheng saw that her face was full of confusion, and coughed lightly, "If the county lord thinks that there is no good place, it is better to go to Sunset Lake!" It's not far from here. ”
It's not far, it's not far away, and it's half an hour away.
It's the height of summer, and the lotus flowers in the lake are blooming just right.
"Alright, let's go!"
Min Yan took the lead, and Mr. Hu made a cheering gesture to Shen Cheng in the back.
The two are about to get married in four months, but they are still not far away, but the master is really not in a hurry, and he is in a hurry to die as a strategist.
So, Mr. Hu gave Shen Cheng a suggestion that only when the two of them came out could they cultivate a relationship, and every time Min Yan was in the eyesway, he just wanted to do something, and it was estimated that his general was uncomfortable.
Therefore, the two of them did not bring a guard girl, which was also proposed by Shen Cheng, saying that it was too eye-catching for so many people.
Minyan was right when she thought about it, so she really didn't even bring a girl.
The two came to Sunset Lake one after the other, compared with the last time, Sunset Lake was obviously much more lively, twenty or thirty small boats on the lake, floating at will, and there were several stalls selling food by the lake.
There were also several young teenagers leading the boat.
As soon as the two got off the horse, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old brother came over to help them lead the horse.
He also said earnestly: "The two of you need to be served." ”
The service here is to follow the boat, row the boat and wait for other dispatches, but the little brother came here last year, and he also knows that young men and women like them who come out alone will not ask for help.
Sure enough, I heard the cold-faced man say, "No." ”
The little brother was not disappointed, tied the horse, led the way for the two, got on the boat, Minyan said, "Hey, little brother, I see that you have a lot of food here, can you go and buy some for me?" This one is for you, and the rest is for you to run errands. ”
Min Yan happily threw the silver ingot.
Shen Cheng's action of taking out the silver paused, and the little brother hurriedly took it, this ingot of silver is enough for five taels, he has worked here for so long, and he has never seen such a generous reward.
It is to buy all the food sold on the shore for a round, and at most half of it can be spent.
The little brother is only thirteen or fourteen years old when he knows how to observe words and feelings, and he will not hide his emotions at all when he gets so many rewards.
Grinning happily, "Okay, guest wait." ”
Then he jumped up and ran out like a little monkey.
The boat didn't go out, just waited on the shore, Minyan lowered her head and got into the boat, it should be used by people often, but it was much cleaner than last time.
Min Yan sat down directly inside and beckoned Shen Cheng to say, "General, let's take a break!" The little brother probably won't be able to come until a while. ”
Shen Cheng has always known that he is very poor, and he is reluctant to throw away the remaining old tea in the house, but without comparison, he can pretend that he is rich.
So, the money is getting bigger and bigger, and in the future, he will not only have to support the families of those sacrificed brothers, but also the daughter-in-law of the county lord who spends a lot of money to support, and when he thinks of this, he feels that it is more difficult than fighting.
After Min Yan sat down, she found that Shen Cheng was in a daze, and asked curiously, "General, what do you want!" ”
"Make money."
When the words came out, he woke up violently.
It's just that Min Yan was a little curious and said, "The general's money is not enough?" Also, there are more than 100 people in the house, and a thousand taels of silver are indeed ......"
As she spoke, Min-yeon sighed twice.
was looked down upon, and Shen Cheng's self-esteem was hit.
"There aren't so many people, just thirty or forty people!"
Shen Cheng also felt that he was really useless at this time, except for fighting, thinking that he had no other strengths.
Even if it was a war, it would not be possible now.
Looking at Shen Cheng, who was rarely lost, Min Yan swallowed the ridicule on her lips and replaced it.
"How much private property does the general have?"
Speaking of this, Shen Cheng was even more embarrassed, other generals are getting richer the more they fight, only he is getting poorer and poorer, because of his leg injury in the past two years, he can't go to the battlefield, and the monthly pension silver of those brothers' families is enough for him to sell a few properties.
Seeing that Shen Cheng didn't speak, thinking that people didn't want to tell her, Min Yan said, "If the general doesn't want to say it, forget it, I ......"
"No, we ...... is about to get married, and these are supposed to tell you. ”
Speaking of getting married, Min Yeon remembered that the two seemed to be married in only four months.
Shen Cheng sorted out his thoughts and said slowly, "In the past two years, because of something, the property in the house has been sold by me, there are only fourteen shops in Kyoto, and there are five Zhuangzi and a horse farm outside the city. ”
As a second-grade Zhenguo general, Shen Cheng is also poor enough.
Min Yeon was dumbfounded and said, "How did you live?" With this little family business, if it weren't for the marriage, the general would probably not even be able to afford the dowry! ”
With such a little family business, she can't think of it anyway, with the price of the capital, no matter how good the business of those shops is, she can only eat coarse tea and light rice every day!
"Rest assured, the dowry is already being prepared."
Although he said this, Min Yan didn't believe it either, seeing that she didn't believe it, Shen Cheng wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't speak, some things are indeed not yet time.
If he is not poor, how can some people be at ease!
Min Yan couldn't help but look at Shen Cheng suspiciously, "Is there anything unspeakable about General Shen?" ”
With his monthly salary of 1,000 taels of silver, he will save a little, so that he will not have to sell his property!
Shen Cheng pursed her lips, she didn't know how to speak, and she was afraid to say it, she felt that it was all a burden.
At this moment, the little brother who had just gone shopping came back, and he carried a basket full of food in a basket, all wrapped in oiled paper.
