By early noon, Zheng Bang had caught a total of 67 pheasants.

Among them, there are thirty-nine female pheasants.

They lay eggs well, and after a while, you can hear a female pheasant laying eggs and singing.

Xiao Qiongzhi was very happy, and whenever she heard the song of a female pheasant laying eggs, she would take the dog, the stone, and the small basket to the cage together to pick wild eggs.

By noon, twenty-three wild eggs had been picked.

She sent the small basket back to the kitchen, and discussed with Chu Yunniang and Liu Wuxiu, who were about to deliver the dishes to the main house, with a smile: "Mother, Aunt Liu, the female pheasants caught by my uncle are quite capable of laying eggs, so let's keep them all."

"Okay, anyway, in the future, I will make fairy tofu and sun tofu every day, and some are soybean dregs and mountain chestnut dregs, which are used to raise the wild boar and pheasants that your uncle caught, which is just right." Liu Wuxiu said happily.

In my heart, I especially admire Zheng Bang's ability to support his family.

Normally in the village, when the snow closes the mountains like this, the men will become idle.

However, there will be some greedy children who will think of making a mechanism like Zheng Bang to catch pheasants, and catch one or two small birds to satisfy their hunger.

However, they can only catch small birds, and no one has ever caught a pheasant, let alone so many pheasants in just one morning, which is all money!

Because she was in a good mood, when she had lunch at lunch, she was bold and asked Zheng Bang with a smile in public: "Big hero, is there anyone else in your family now?"

Zheng Bang didn't expect Liu Wuxiu to suddenly ask himself this question, and he was a little surprised.

He glanced at Liu Wuxiu with a faint expression, and replied in a deep voice: "Sister-in-law Liu, I can make the decisions about my own affairs." If you have anything to say, please speak up! ”

Liu Wuxiu saw that he Zheng Bang was not very happy, and he didn't dare to sell Guan Zi anymore.

She hurriedly said: "That's the case, I also have a younger sister at home, seventeen this year, she looks very good, since she was a child, because of her good roots, she was favored by a heroine who passed by our village, and she was accepted as a righteous daughter, and she took it with her, not only to teach her literacy, but also to teach her a good kung fu."

"Every year at the beginning of the lunar month, she will come back to visit my father and mother as in previous years. If you don't have a wife yet, I'll go back to my mother's house tomorrow and bring her over and show you. If you have already taken a wife, then I didn't say it. ”

"I haven't married a wife yet." Zheng Bang said immediately.

After speaking, he looked at Liu Wuxiu's gaze, and it was also a lot gentler.

Although Liu Wuxiu is sometimes noisy, she has an active brain, a cool personality, and a good character, if her sister is like her in these aspects, and at the same time she is literate and has good kung fu, she is a good candidate for a wife.

"Haha, that's great!" Liu Wuxiu was overjoyed and overjoyed.

It was Xiao Qiongzhi, who couldn't figure it out.

She remembered that when she went to the county seat with Zheng Bang to buy pine planks last time, Zheng Bang clearly said that he had a marriage contract.

He also said that the woman with whom he was engaged was only ten years old and would not be able to marry him until five years later.

Now, he can acquiesce to Liu Wuxiu introducing his sister to him, which can only mean that either he is not satisfied with his marriage contract and has plans to withdraw from the marriage; Either he just wants to take Liu Wuxiu's sister as a concubine.

And these two possibilities are not acceptable to Xiao Qiongzhi.

After the meal, she deliberately called Zheng Bang aside, and asked in a solemn low voice: "Uncle, did you just promise Aunt Liu to look at her sister?"

"Yes." Zheng Bang nodded affirmatively.

Xiao Qiongzhi was a little disappointed, pursed her lips, and reminded him: "Aunt Liu's meaning is that she should marry her sister to you as his wife, and you already have a marriage contract, how can you marry her sister?"

Zheng Bang saw her dissatisfaction, hooked the corners of his lips, and replied with a smile: "The woman who has a marriage contract with me is just my side concubine, and my wife's position is empty."

"Huh? How else can it be done? Xiao Qiongzhi was surprised.

Zheng Bang shook his head: "No, originally, there was another woman who also had a marriage contract with me and occupied my wife's position, but she later came to see someone else and divorced me, which caused my wife's position to be vacant."

"So that's the case, that woman really has no vision!" Xiao Qiongzhi said sincerely.

There are few excellent men like Zheng Bang in this world!

If it weren't for the fact that the age gap between the two was too big and they were related to each other, she would be happy to consider Zheng Bang as a candidate for her future husband.

At the end of noon, Zhou Dayong came back from Zhou Yuandong's house and after lunch.

He brought the news to Zheng Yuan from the two of them, the king of Chu, Feige.

First, Zou Kuo, the general of Qi State, and Prime Minister Lou Xiangru, took the lead in supporting Wei Dongshi, the concubine of the King of Qi, and the son born to him as the new King of Qi, and at the same time, Wei Dongshi also sent Prime Minister Lou Xiangru as an envoy to bring people to Chu to ask for peace with the King of Chu.

First, the king of Chu has sent his troops to serve the Qin Dynasty, personally leading 3,000 men and horses to Zhoujia Village to assist Xu Nian and Zheng Yuan in handling more than 40,000 corpses fished out of the Peacock River.

Xiao Qiongzhi, Zhou Dazhi and others were very happy after hearing this.

This means that everything is as Xiao Qiongzhi expected.

At least for the time being, it is impossible for Chu Qi to fight, as for the king of Qi and the whole prince, who have also become the former king of Qi and the former prince of Qi, there is no chance to make waves again.

After the Qin Dynasty brought people over, Zhou Dazhi and Zhou Youzhong and others could smoothly take the King of Qi and the whole prince to Chujing with them.

Only King Qi and Prince Quan, after learning these two news, were anxious.

The king of Qi has been scolding Zou Kuo, Lou Xiangru, Wei Dongshi, and Wei Feng to death.

The whole prince has been walking around the secret room, obviously thinking about countermeasures.

Xiao Qiongzhi looked through the crack in the door of the secret room, looked at the reaction of their father and son, turned his head and reminded Zhou Dazhi in a low voice: "Dad, the whole prince must be thinking about how to escape from our house, you and other uncles, you have to keep an eye on them."

"I understand, Zhi'er, don't worry, there are nine of us, staring at the two of them, and in this tunnel, they can't fly at all." Zhou Dazhi said with confidence.

Xiao Qiongzhi thought about it and was relieved.

The next day, Liu Wuxiu couldn't accompany Chu Yunniang Zhang Luo for breakfast, and left early to go back to her parents' house.

At the end of the day, Liu Wuxiu came back with a very handsome girl.

Xiao Qiongzhi was squatting with the dog and the stone at the four chicken cages under the south window of the kitchen, guarding the pheasants to lay eggs.

She saw them at a glance, and hurriedly took the dog and the stone and went up to meet them.

Liu Wuxiu found out, and immediately pointed to Xiao Qiongzhi and told the handsome girl: "Yuxiu, look, this is the branch I told you about!"

The handsome girl followed her finger and looked over, looking at Xiao Qiongzhi while showing a kind smile to Xiao Qiongzhi.

When Xiao Qiongzhi came to her side, the handsome girl squatted down, took Xiao Qiongzhi's little hand, and said softly: "Zhi'er, my name is Yuxiu, my sister said, you are her daughter, look, can I touch her light and treat you as my niece?"

"Yes!" Xiao Qiongzhi smiled sweetly and replied briskly.

This Liu Yuxiu is not only very handsome, not at all like Liu Wuxiu's thick eyebrows and big eyes, but also although she is as tall as Liu Wuxiu, she is not as fat as Liu Wuxiu at all, and her body is graceful and graceful, which is a typical beauty embryo.

In terms of figure and appearance, she is completely worthy of Zheng Bang.

When Liu Wuxiu introduced herself to her just now, she was not in a hurry to greet her from afar, but looked at herself with a friendly smile, indicating that she was a relatively cultured person, not like Liu Wuxiu, who was smug and fast-talking.

And when she came to her, she would think of crouching down, holding her hand, and speaking in a consultative tone.

And, it is obvious that she is setting it closely, but she just sets this almost just right, which can be consciously accepted, which fully shows that she knows how to take care of children's feelings, and she also knows how to grasp the proportions of the conversation and be delicate.

Xiao Qiongzhi couldn't help but look forward to the scene of the moment she met Zheng Bang.
