At this time, several brothers in the room looked at each other and gave each other blank looks, obviously blaming each other for not being comforting.

Banniang thought about Xu Thirteen and went all the way back to the house.

Although Cang'er works in the shop, he will rush back to dinner every night. The two had dinner in the courtyard and went back to their residence, and Cang'er talked about the situation in the shop at the end of the day.

Because of the seizure last time, the business of the shop has been affected a lot, but it is not bad. Coupled with Banniang's seemingly inaction during this period of time, the business has been half-dead, the good news is that there are a lot of returning customers, as well as new customers introduced by customers who bought furniture before.

can maintain it so stably, Banniang thinks it's not bad, at least there is money to be made, not to lose money.

"Are you really going to let the shop go on like this?"

Cang'er has been accustomed to the situation where Sheraton wood is spread to where it is popular, if the profitability of the shop is now much better than the new shop business opened by other people, but compared with the historical war situation of Sheraton wood shop, it is really a day and a day, the difference is too big, no wonder Cang'er is anxious.

Banniang smiled: "Let's do this for the time being, but where will I let the shop go on like this?" Sister Cang'er don't worry. What happened to the shop before, you are also clear, and under the premise that there is no guarantee that similar situations will not be encountered in the future, it is good for the shop to maintain its current state. I have a plan in my heart, and when I am free in a few days, I will talk to Sister Cang'er in detail. ”

Speaking of this, thinking of Li Yonglai, he said with a smile: "By the way, tomorrow Brother Seventeen will rest Mu, we haven't been together for a long time, Ming'er just ask Xia Wei to go to the shop by herself, and you can also accompany me at home." ”

Anyway, it's nothing special to go to the shop. The general patrons of the guys can also respond, and Cang'er didn't take it to heart, so he agreed.

Early the next morning, Banniang got up to finish exercising, saw that the sky was bright, and before it was time for breakfast, she went to the stable.

Xu 13 was there to feed the horses.

Seeing Banniang coming, he was a little surprised: "Banniang, it's early." ”

"Brother Thirteen early." Banniang stepped forward with a smile, and while adding some feed to the horse, she helped Xu Shisan wash the horse's body.

Xu Shisan felt that she was a little strange to be silent today, and said with a smile: "Banniang, but you have something to tell me?" ”

Xu 13 is in the Zeng family, not selling himself, just an employment relationship. But in fact, for Banniang, this person has been by her side longer than her brother in recent years. And he also has a more special meaning for Banniang.

Although it is a peaceful and prosperous world, it is not completely safe for a woman to walk outside. In a sense, Xu 13 is responsible for the safety of Banniang's life. But he was just a hired job for the Zeng family.

And Banniang not only treats him with great respect, but also trusts him very much, otherwise tens of thousands of silver funds will not be handed over to Xu Shisan for safekeeping without doubt on previous journeys.

Seeing Xu Shisan's question, Banniang was silent.

Xu Shisan, although he looks straightforward, is actually not a heartless person. has been able to work in her own home for so many years, and to be honest, Banniang is also a little surprised.

And I have heard Cang'er mention his life experience before, he was originally a famous figure in the Jiangnan Road Dart Bureau, cautious and steady, Banniang never dared to underestimate him, got along for a few years, came and went in the wind and rain, Xu Shisan was taken care of as his family. Banniang's feelings for him are naturally unusual.

On the way to Quanzhou, he drank too much wine in the inn, and Xu Shisan occasionally confided in his desire to join the army.

There are monuments and legends that Lord Di makes the entire Song Dynasty people look up to, and this monument and Wei Qi are still alive, you can imagine what kind of encouragement it is for those men who are a little enthusiastic and rewarded.

Xu Thirteen has such a wish, and Banniang is not surprised at all.

Banniang coughed, and then asked casually: "Does Brother Thirteen have any thoughts about his future life?" ”

Xu 13 was stunned by her question.

Later life? Idea? Xu 13 shook his head self-deprecatingly.

marrying a wife and having children, such a major event in his life can be regarded as completed.

Although he is a servant hired by the Zeng family, and he is only a groom, but in the Zeng family, no one really regards him as a groom, especially Ba Niang, who treats him with great respect, this respect is by no means an official lady, or an excellent businessman like her, who can give a groom respect, and the salary he is given is even much higher than that of the shopkeeper in the ordinary shop, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he Xu Thirteen is the highest-paid groom in the Great Song Kingdom.

What else does he think about the rest of his life?

"Why do you ask this?"

Although she thought of Xu Shisan's desire to join the army when she heard that Di Yong could really go on the expedition, after all, this battle against Northern Liao, if it could really be fought, it would not be a small battle, if Xu Shisan could have the opportunity to enter the barracks, with his back, there would always be no problem with the safety of his life. If the Great Song Dynasty can win the battle and Xu Thirteen can make military exploits, will it be different for Xu Thirteen's life?

In the past, he didn't join the army, but there was no one in the army, and starting as an ordinary soldier would obviously not be Xu Shisan's choice.

But now recommend him to Di Yong?

The most important thing is that in fact, Banniang is also a little selfish, if Xu Shisan can follow Di Yong's side, will it be more preserved if he is safe?

But hearing Xu Shisan's question, and seeing the look on his face again, Banniang dispelled the selfish thoughts in her heart.

There is no fame in this world, and there is no cost. How could she let another person she cared about be in danger because she was worried about the safety of the person she cared about. If something really happened to Xu Shisan, what should Xiu Niang's sister-in-law and children do? Besides, even if she believes that Xu Thirteen is enough to protect herself, but the sword is not long-eyed, who can guarantee that she is really fighting with her life with real swords and real guns, not your dead master and my living battlefield, and can have all the beards and tails?

Banniang shook her head and smiled with some guilt: "It's okay, I'm just asking casually." ”

What's wrong with her? Xu Shisan glanced at her a little worriedly, this girl didn't speak like this before. Recently, there are a lot of things in the family, the old man died, the wife was not in good health, there were so big things in the workshop and shop, when the young lady of other people's family was fifteen or sixteen years old, she was still looking forward to getting married, or being coquettish in front of her parents, but Baniang......

There is also the marriage between Di Gongzi and the county lord of Qinghe......

Xu Thirteen sighed secretly.

After washing the horses, it was not early, and the two went to the front yard for breakfast.

Just after breakfast, Lu Qiqi and Li Yong had already come together.

Because Lu Qiqi has always been too busy, the Zeng brothers haven't seen these two people for a long time.

After saying a few words, Lu Qiqi and Li Yongzi were going to visit the Zhu family in the listening courtyard.

Fortunately, Banniang pulled Cang'er to speak in the Zhu family's courtyard.

Hearing that Lu Qiqi and Li Yong came over, the Zhu family was also happy, although Lu Qiqi and Banniang dissolved the marriage contract, but in the end they were also the brother of their daughter-in-law, and the two families had a friendship, so they were considered sons and nephews, and Lu Qiqi was also a favorite of the elders.

And Li Yong also came, remembering the last time this kid came to beg her to come forward to match him and Cang'er's girl, Zhu couldn't help laughing when he looked at Cang'er, who was still ignorant and unconscious.

Banniang obviously knew what her mother was laughing at, and the eyes of the mother and daughter swirled around Cang'er, and when they met in the air, they smiled knowingly.

Cang'er was inexplicably amused by them looking and laughing, and couldn't help touching his face a little inexplicably, and asked Zhu: "Auntie, what's wrong with my niece today?" ”

"No, no," Zhu hurriedly patted her hand, "It's all good." ”

Seeing that the mother hadn't shown such a smile for a long time, Banniang was also very happy.

As he was talking, he saw Lu Qiqi and Li Yong being led into the courtyard by the maid.

Lu Seventeen, who did not wear official uniforms, was still as red as before, and Li Yong was also dressed as if he was in the situation, one was dark green, one was tall and extraordinary, and the other changed his habits, but he also looked strong and cute, and the two entered the house together and saluted the Zhu family. Zhu looked happy and smiled and let the two of them sit down.

May came up with tea, and saw that Li Yong's eyes looked at Miss Cang'er from time to time, and Miss Cang'er looked like she was ignoring his existence, so she couldn't help but smile.

was held back by Banniang with a smile, and May had to retreat.

Zhu also knew that the two children couldn't sit still here, so they sent them to the front to find Zijing and their brothers to play.

The two of them just said goodbye, Lu Qiqi was about to walk out of the house, Li Yong couldn't help but say to Cang'er: "Miss Cang'er, I recently found a good master in the countryside and practiced a few sets of boxing, if you have a home, why don't we go to the backyard to build a house?" ”

This said, Zhu didn't know what to do, it was nothing, Lu Qiqi and Banniang both looked at him like they thought he had taken the wrong medicine.

Cang'er was provoked by the eyes of this product for a long time, pretending not to know in front of his uncle, for fear of beating him and scaring his uncle into having a bad fetus, this thing even didn't know how to challenge her?

It must be tired of being alive.

Cang'er's eyes swept Li Yong faintly, and the phalanges of his fingers rattled. Li Yong couldn't help but shudder. This time, even Zhu felt that something was wrong.

glanced at Cang'er with some puzzlement. I wondered in my heart, could it be that this girl Cang'er has no idea about the Li family's boy? Otherwise, how could this look be so scary? This Li family kid is too, he likes the girl's family, where is the best place to find someone to fight? What girl likes to fight?

Just as he was about to speak, he saw Cang'er showing a sweet smile at Zhu: "Uncle, I suddenly remembered that there was a dress that I forgot to ask Xiaofu to take to wash, I will go back and will be back soon." ”

Banniang was covered in a cold sweat by her "sweet" smile that was rare for a thousand years, and hurriedly said to Zhu: "Mother, I'll go to the kitchen to take a look, today's seventeenth brother and the eldest brother of the Li family are eating at home, and I'll help the second sister-in-law." ”

As he spoke, he threw Li Yong a look of "child paper, you ask for more blessings", and hurriedly followed behind Cang'er.

Lu Qiqi had to salute the Zhu family again, and he also walked away quickly, and before leaving, he didn't forget to look at Li Yong, and shook his head sadly.

Li Yong almost cried in his heart.

He just wanted to find an excuse to talk to her alone. Do you want those two guys to look at themselves so compassionately?

Although he knew what was waiting for him behind, but everyone was gone, and he couldn't bear to be here with the Zhu family, so he had to go out with Lu Qiqi with a sad face.

"What's going on?" Zhu asked with a puzzled look as he came in to clean up the tea bowl.

"That," May looked at Li Yong's back with some sympathy, "If Mrs. Hui speaks, it is estimated that the son of the Li family will be beaten by our Miss Cang'er." ”

"Punch? What does this say? ”

May was shocked to realize that she had missed her mouth, and hurriedly cleaned up the tea bowl and exited the main house at the speed of the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves.

said that Li Yongcheng went out with the footsteps of Lu Seventeen, and saw Cang'er leaning on an old tree pole in the middle of the road, carefully studying her hands that were not white and tender.

Seeing Li Yong come out, he carefully blew the back of his hand, and then continued to smile at Li Yong who thought he was "sweet": "Listen to you, you want to find me to build martial arts?" ”

Li Yong glanced at Lu Qiqi and Banniang innocently, then his eyes fell on the smiling Cang'er again, looking at her smile, the soles of his feet couldn't help but be cold, and he had goosebumps all over his body, and after coughing, Zhengse said: "Men and women can't stand it, how can Xiaosheng build martial arts with this lady, I don't know where this little lady heard the rumors, but Xiaosheng did learn a set of boxing recently, if this little lady does not give up, it is better to find an open space, Xiaosheng plays a set, I heard that this little lady's skills are comparable to that of a woman, please advise one or two." ”

Banniang and Lu Qiqi were originally worried about him, but when they heard him say such a fluent and righteous speech, they were completely speechless about these two goods, and they all looked up at the blue sky and white clouds in the sky.

was embarrassed to be silent, and Zi Jing Langlang's laughter sounded: "Hey, Master Li, you still want to play a fist to Miss Cang'er?" ”

Li Yong continued to be serious: "As a beginner, I just want to ask Miss Cang'er for advice." ”

Looking at the serious appearance of this product once in a thousand years, Zijing didn't realize it for a while, and the smile on his face was stuck.

I heard Cang'er say coldly: "Eighth sister, do you have any medicine for bruises at home?" ”

"It seems...... Xu 13 said, no. Banniang replied, winking at Li Yong sincerely: Look, brother, it's not that I didn't help you, in fact, my family's bruise medicine, because I am away all the year round, I have prepared a lot.

Hearing this, Cang'er frowned, shook his head again, and said, "No matter, fat man, don't you want me to teach you?" I'm not afraid to waste my strength today, so I'll personally instruct you to go to the backyard, which is more spacious. ”

Zijing is still unsure of the situation: "Are you sure?" ”

Li Yong glanced at Lu Seventeen for help, and saw that Lu Seventeen was still looking at the blue sky at a forty-five degree angle. I have to stomp my feet ruthlessly, won't I be beaten, a manly husband, what are you afraid of when you are beaten by your wife?

"Let's go."

Banniang looked at Li Yongxiong with admiration and followed Cang'er heroically, Lu Qiqi and Zijing also followed, and said to May, who came to see the excitement: "Go and let Xu Shisan prepare the medicine, and say that Li Dagongzi will be seriously injured in a while." Need for treatment. ”

"Miss, don't stop it, if Gongzi Li is really injured, it's not good?"

Banniang smiled unkindly: "It's okay, this is life that will hurt with it." ”

Regardless of whether May could understand it or not, she also rushed to follow.

As a result, it was naturally out of everyone's expectations, poor Li Frog just wanted to please the beauty in his heart, and accidentally made a noise, so he was covered with injuries and wailed, and was dragged to the dressing by Xu Shisan, who rushed to hear the news.

Although Zijing knew that his sister's friend and shopkeeper was very skilled, he didn't expect to defeat Li Yong's ambition completely, and his actions were smooth, and he was very surprised. And because Li Yong is a guest in the end, he is the master, while supporting Li Yong with Xu Shisan, he sighed: "I can't imagine that Miss Cang'er is so powerful, if this is a man, if he goes to the battlefield, can he build a Su Ye?" Now that our Great Song Kingdom is at war with Northern Liao, it is precisely when we need a talent like Miss Cang'er, but unfortunately she is a woman. If I am as powerful as Miss Cang'er, what kind of books do I read, it is only right to beat that hateful Northern Liao people to the bottom of the water and relieve this breath in my heart. ”

When he arrived in Xu Shisan's room, while giving Li Yong medicine, he didn't care that Li Yong screamed in pain, so he just asked Zijing thoughtfully: "Gongzi said, our Great Song Kingdom is really going to war with Northern Liao?" ”

"Yes, it was agreed in the court yesterday, and it came out in the afternoon, but the coach has not yet decided on the candidate. This time, Master Di will definitely not be able to make a film, but Di Yong, the second son of Di, has a lot of voice, although he is not necessarily the boss, but he will go out with the army, it is certain. Among the many children of the powerful in the heavenly family, it is not a secret that Di Jia Erlang is the most, didn't he want to promote him to the deputy commander of the capital last year, but he was stopped? I think that this time, the official family will let Di Ergongzi go to fight for a military merit and come back. ”

When it came to Di Yong, Xu Shisan couldn't help but think of Banniang's unusual appearance in the morning, and his heart couldn't help but light up.

If the second son of Di can really lead the Northern Expedition......

Because he was thinking about things in his heart, he didn't have a serious start, and Li Yong screamed again in pain, Xu Shisan came back to his senses, smiled apologetically at Li Yong, and said: "The villain thought of something else for a while, and it hurt Li Gongzi." ”

took the medicine and helped Li Yong put on his coat, and the three of them went back to the front yard.

Fortunately, Cang'er knew that he still wanted to see someone, so he didn't hit him in the face.

Li Yong returned to the front yard, and pretended to smile lightly, as if the person who had just been beaten up and grabbed the sky and the earth was not him.

But said that after lunch, Cang'er saw that there was really nothing to do, so he went back to the shop, although Zijing and a few people were not good to go out to play, Zhu did not restrict them at home, Li Yong proposed to go out of the city to go to the grange to relax, and Zhu also agreed. The family went, and Banniang wanted Xu Shisan to accompany him to the workshop.

When he went out, Xu 13 asked Banniang: "I heard that Zijing Gongzi said that our Great Song Dynasty is going to war with Northern Liao?" ”

"Well," Banniang nodded, if Di Yong really asked to lead the troops, this time, I don't know when I will see him, although he is now in the name of someone else's fiancé, it seems a little immoral to see him again, but I have seen it, just think that her three views are not correct, she doesn't want to give it to him when he is trying to get close to herself, but she just looks at it coldly, "Speaking of this, I have something I want to ask the thirteenth brother." ”

"What's the matter?"

"Can the thirteenth brother help me send a letter to the second son of Di? I'd like to ask him to meet him a second time. ”

Di Yong has almost recovered from his illness, and it shouldn't be difficult to come out to meet.
