However, the world is unpredictable, and the good day that Bai Qianfan is looking forward to has not come. Just after the Dragon Boat Festival, there was thunder on the ground, and the king of Chu and the emperor fought.

The ordinary people didn't care about the situation, what they were afraid of was the war, but not long after the news came out, the war had already spread, and no one thought about eating snacks or anything, so they packed their luggage and prepared to flee.

But for Bai Qianfan and them, the king of Chu is more terrifying to them than fighting, and if they are caught, it will be a death.

Yuegui advocated mixing with the common people and fleeing together. Yuexiang was reluctant to buy this family business with hard work, and was a little hesitant. Bai Qianfan advocated waiting and seeing for two days, after all, he had only heard about it, and he hadn't really called yet.

It didn't take long to hear that the common people who ran away were blocked in the middle of the road by the officers and soldiers, some were robbed of money, some were robbed of their wives, and complained and complained, and the people were angry, but in the face of the spears and short swords in the hands of those soldiers, the people could only grit their teeth and swallow blood, and endured it.

I couldn't get out, so I had to go home, and those who didn't go knew that they couldn't escape, everyone hid at home, stayed at home, everyone was panicked, and a tense atmosphere shrouded the town over the town.

After another two days, the gates of the nearby city of Sioux were closed on all sides, and no one was allowed to enter or leave at will. The officers and soldiers stationed in the city all shrank in the city, but the people in the town still did not dare to run, because they heard that the army of the king of Chu was outside the city, and the king of Chu was famous, and it was a more feared figure than the emperor, and no one dared to take this risk.

Hearing that the king of Chu was coming, Laurel Yuexiang was so frightened that she couldn't give up, and she was terrified all day long.

Although Bai Qianfan was also afraid, he was much calmer than them. It's a blessing or a curse, and it's a disaster that can't be avoided. She always has to come, but she feels that since she is fighting, the prince of Chu should not have the energy to take care of her, maybe it will be safe to hide under his nose, she is an optimist, the more she thinks about it, the more she feels that she is right, and tells the idea to Laurel Yuexiang, but they are even more worried, after all, it is the prince of Chu, just thinking about that name makes people shudder.

After a few more days, everyone found that although the army of the king of Chu was in the city, they did not harass the towns and villages around Sucheng, and their small days were no different from usual.

It's also a little strange to say, the two armies of Sioux City, which are more than ten miles away, are facing each other, and the people in the city are being requisitioned and arrested, but the people outside the city are leisurely and leisurely, and their lives are peaceful and peaceful.

The people were originally afraid of the king of Chu, after all, he was a well-known evil god, and their impressions were all about his cruelty, ugliness and violence. But this time, he was so close, but it did not affect the lives of the surrounding people at all, and everyone's evaluation of him was unprecedentedly better. He was praised for his good management of the army, strict discipline, and his heart for the people. Only his appearance is still unanimously considered extremely ugly.

Bai Qianfan walked through the alley with a bamboo basket on his back and heard the two little daughters-in-law chatting.

"Let me tell you, the day before yesterday, my brother went up the mountain to chop wood, and he saw the king of Chu from a distance, and his legs were so frightened that he almost didn't fall off the mountain."

"yes, how scary does he look?"

"As rumored, his face is as black as the bottom of a pot, his eyes are as big as copper bells, his mouth is hanging in all directions, his nostrils are facing the sky, he has a mouthful of big fangs, he is eight feet tall, and he wears a golden armor, which is very powerful."

Bai Qianfan smiled, "Sister-in-law Hua, you're talking about Zhong Kui." ”

The little daughter-in-law who was chatting turned her head and saw that it was her, and grinned, "Ah Fan is here, I haven't bought your snacks for a few days, what do you have today?" ”

Bai Qianfan raised the empty bamboo basket, "No, I'm afraid I won't be able to sell it, my sister didn't make much, she will make corn tortillas tomorrow, do you want the two sisters-in-law?" ”

"Okay, come tomorrow," Sister-in-law Hua smiled: "Even if you don't buy cakes, come and play, my Xiaoqi likes you, and when I hear your voice, I say that Brother Avan is here." ”

Bai Qianfan asked, "Xiao Qi is not at home?" ”

"Don't mention it, I went back to my parents' house yesterday, and I heard my brother talk about King Chu, he didn't look at it, he was stunned and asked his uncle to take him to see it today, this little red guy, it's too late for others to hide, he wants to see it, and he's not afraid of having nightmares at night."

Although Murong Mian hurt her heart, hearing others scandalize him like this, Bai Qianfan couldn't help but argue for him: "Sister-in-law Hua's brother really sees it clearly?" That's not the King of Chu, the King of Chu is actually not ugly at all, he is a very good-looking man. ”

The sister-in-law of the Liu family, who had never spoken, quipped, "Better looking than our Afan?" ”

"That is, our Ah Fan will grow up in the future, but he is a beautiful man, and it will be lucky for a girl from any family to marry you in the future."

Bai Qianfan blushed and snorted, "I'm still young, I'll talk about it when the two sisters above get married." ”

"Speaking of which, I remember," said the sister-in-law of the Liu family, "Your two sisters are not young, are they engaged?" ”

Bai Qianfan shook his head, "The age is up, and the marriage has not yet been decided." ”

"Coincidentally, I have an acquaintance who has taken a fancy to your sister, the one with a small round face and a pair of small pear nests when she laughs."

Bai Qianfan sighed, "That's Sister Ah Xiang." ”

"Yes, yes, it's her," the sister-in-law of the Liu family was very enthusiastic, "You go back and ask your sister what she means, if you want, you will settle the family matter, now this soldier is in a hurry, and it is good to have someone take care of it." ”

Bai Qianfan asked, "I don't know who the man is?" ”

"Don't worry about this, my acquaintance opened a sesame oil shop, not to mention being rich and expensive, he is always passable, he has a son under his knees, he is very baby, and he is a little boss lady when he marries him, and he can't lose her."

Bai Qianfan thinks it's not bad, marrying a small family, there are no troubles, the family still has a small industry, and it is okay to live in peace.

When she got home, she told Yuexiang about it, and Yuexiang was so ashamed that her face was flushed, and she covered her face and shouted that she would not marry.

Yuegui laughed at her on the side, "Do you want to be an old girl if you don't marry?" ”

"You're as old as me, why don't you get married?"

"No one takes a fancy to me, how can I get married?"

"I'll let it be given to you, you marry first."

"Can this kind of thing still be allowed? Besides, it's you who people are looking at. Speaking of this, Yue Gui remembered, "If you think it's good, let's get married first, and if you get married, if that second slipper comes again, I'll cut him to death!" ”

Bai Qianfan asked, "Where did the second slipper come from?" ”

Yuegui said, "You don't know if you go out every day, there is a second slipper who comes to our door to look, and when he sees Yuexiang, he can't walk like he has lost his soul, and I have been driven by a broom a few times, but that person has no skin and no face, and he is rushing today, and Ming'er is coming again, Yuexiang is thin-skinned, and I am not allowed to say it." ”

"Hey! This is a bold man! Bai Qianfan slapped on the table, raised his eyebrows and said, "Is there no one to bully our family, I won't go out tomorrow, and I will meet that second slipper!" ”
