Chapter 84: The Enemy Retreats
Qiao Dazhu carefully recalled and compared, and it was really the case.
"So what now? The Zhao family is well-off, and General Zhao is General Longwei, who is admired by His Majesty, although I don't know how many products it is, but in short, it is a big official, and General Zhao may not be able to look down on a portal like us. ”
"Not necessarily, in my opinion." Du shook his head.
"I think General Zhao also has that heart for Jinyu."
"You haven't thought about it, why is General Zhao making decisions for us, renting a house for us to live in, and giving Huai'an a set of four treasures in the study?"
Qiao Dazhu frowned, "Didn't you say before that General Zhao was just kind-hearted, because Jin Yu was on an errand in his mansion, so he took more care of us?" ”
"You also said that it was before. Later, I thought about it carefully, and General Zhao's care for us was really more than that of ordinary employers' care for domestic servants. ”
Qiao Dazhu pondered for a while, as if this was indeed the case.
"So what do we do now? I can't wait for General Zhao to come back, and ask him directly if he likes Jinyu and is willing to marry Jinyu, right? ”
"Why are you so stupid? Of course, you can't ask directly. Du Shi glanced at Qiao Dazhu with disgust.
"When General Zhao comes back, let's prepare some courtesies and go to Zhao's mansion to meet him, and then we can ask him if he has a favorite girl."
"Jinyu is a daughter's family in the end, her skin is thin, and she can't pull her face, so we can only think more about it as parents."
Understanding what Du Shi meant, Qiao Dazhu nodded vigorously.
"Okay, just do as you say."
As the battle progressed, it seemed that the battle became more and more intense.
Sometimes, Qiao Jinyu would even be awakened in the middle of the night by the sound of horns and war drums.
These two voices swept through the night sky with the sound of soldiers fighting, and they sounded particularly frightening.
And on nights like these, she usually wakes up and can't sleep again, often keeping her eyes open until dawn.
Not only were the trumpets and war drums frightening, but more and more wounded soldiers were carried into the city during the day and to the city's infirmary and pharmacy.
Those bloody and bloody wounds, every time she saw them, Qiao Jinyu's heart would twitch and tighten.
After more than a month of restlessness, Xinyang City ushered in the first snow of the year.
Standing under the porch, looking at the white snowflakes slowly falling from the sky, Qiao Jinyu let out a hot breath.
"It's starting to snow, it's time for this battle to stop, right?"
As she was chattering, Steward Zhao suddenly rushed into the courtyard from the outside, shouting as she ran: "Madam, good news!" Xuanyuan has retired! ”
Qiao Jinyu was stunned, and then her face was happy.
Withdrawn?
That's great!
"Lao Zhao, what are you talking about?! Did Xuanyuan really retire? ”
Yan heard the movement and ran out of the house in a panic, because he ran too fast, and almost tripped when he crossed the threshold.
Steward Zhao was shocked and hurriedly dissuaded: "Madam, don't be in a hurry, go slowly, beware of falling." ”
But where can Yan not be in a hurry?
Without waiting for Steward Zhao to approach, she quickly greeted him and grabbed Steward Zhao's arm.
"Lao Zhao, what you said is true, Xuanyuan really retired? What about brackets? When will Kuo'er return to the city? When will you go home? Are you hurt? ”
"Ma'am, can you ...... Ask one by one? Steward Zhao couldn't breathe, "You ...... all of a sudden I don't even know what to ask so many questions...... Which one to answer first. ”
"Kuo'er isn't hurt, is she?" Yan naturally chose the issue she was most concerned about first.
