Chapter 161: She's Sold and Counted
Gu Feng didn't immediately respond to what Su Jiu'er said, put the axe away, washed his hands, and then walked towards Su Jiu'er's side with his feet up, and sat on the stone bench next to Su Jiu'er.
"Xianggong, don't be deceived by his rhetoric." Su Jiu'er looked at Gu Feng nervously, and said softly, "Think about it, my mother wanted to give Yang Yang to him at the beginning, but not only did he not refuse, but he also wanted to take the child away secretly." ”
"I'm not going to let anyone take the child away." Gu Feng knew that Su Jiu'er was too worried about the child, not to mention, there were many things he didn't want Su Jiu'er to worry about, "The child can only grow up by our side." ”
Hearing Gu Feng say this, Su Jiu'er couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, looked at Gu Feng with crooked eyebrows, and said flatteringly, "I won't be fierce to him in the future, but, Xianggong, you must promise me less to have anything to do with him." ”
"Wine." Gu Feng stretched out his hand to hold Su Jiu'er's hand, and rubbed his rough thumb gently.
The skin on the back of her hand was delicate and smooth, and it felt like fine silk, and he couldn't put it down.
"Huh?"
"Later, I mean later," Gu Feng's dark pupils reflected Su Jiu'er's face, his throat sliding, and he said nervously, "When Yangyang is a little older, I want to join the army." ”
Su Jiu'er looked stunned, and after a long while, she reacted, with an uncomfortable smile on her face, and asked softly, "Xianggong, why do you want to join the army?" ”
Without waiting for Gu Feng to explain, Su Jiu'er couldn't wait to say, "Our inn needs someone to take care of it, and those crops in the field also need someone to guard it, I'm afraid I can't be busy alone." ”
"I'm not going to go now," Gu Feng said, with a long sigh, "I'm afraid that in two years, the Huns will attack again, senior brother is really too hard, if I am here, I can also reduce a little burden." ”
Tears soaked her eyes, Su Jiu'er never thought that one day, Gu Feng would leave her and go to the battlefield.
The battlefield is a place where you live and die, and those who can survive on the battlefield are heroes, but how can heroes be so good?
"Do you have to go?" Su Jiu'er tried hard to suppress her crying, and looked at Gu Feng pitifully.
"Yes, I have to go."
Su Jiu'er slowly withdrew her hand from Gu Feng's hand, with tears in her eyes, smiled indifferently, and nodded, "I know." ”
Gu Feng was born to be an Orion, even if he didn't go to the mountain now, he would wipe that bow every day and look at that bow in a daze.
"So, when are you going to go?" Su Jiu'er lowered her eyes slightly, and her wet eyelashes trembled slightly.
"Wait for the next conscription," Gu Feng said, glancing at Mama Zhu who was busy in the kitchen, "It is estimated that it will only be a matter of two or three years." ”
"Well, then I'll wait at home with the child for you to come back." Su Jiu'er thought that there was still a long time during this period, and when Gu Feng got used to doing business in the future, maybe he would change his mind.
As soon as Su Jiu'er's voice fell, she suddenly realized that she had just talked about An Zeqing, why did he get involved in being a soldier again?
Forget it, she still won't say it, if she talks too much, it's not good if Gu Feng is unhappy.
Su Jiu'er was sitting at the stone table doing embroidery, when a gust of wind blew and blew the embroidered cloth in her hand.
There were a few white clouds floating in the clear blue sky, like clean and seedless cotton.
The warm sun shone on her body, and Su Jiu'er felt a little sleepy.
It was hard for her to imagine that she was living such a comfortable and simple life at home, but on the other side of Liangzhou, it was a dire Shura field, and blood flowed like a river.
And the nobles in the capital live an elegant and calm life one by one, the women worry about dressing up all day long, and the men linger in the land of wind and snow at night.
They are all human beings, but their fates are so different.
Within two days, someone in the village spread the word that Chen Gongzi in the capital had a good heart and sent a lot of food.
Su Jiu'er never thought that she would see Chen Shaobin so soon.
An Zeqing came to the Gu family with Chen Shaobin.
An Zeqing introduced Chen Shaobin to Gu Feng, and Su Jiu'er stood quietly behind Gu Feng, just saluting the two people.
When a man speaks, a woman can't just interject.
Gu Feng invited An Zeqing and Chen Shaobin to the hall, Su Jiu'er walked in with a tea tray, and turned around and entered the bedroom after serving tea.
She couldn't listen to them over there, but she could eavesdrop.
The door of the bedroom opened a crack in the door, and Su Jiu'er's gaze fell on Chen Shaobin's face.
If Chen Shaobin is a reborn person, will he tell An Zeqing what happened in his previous life?
The three of them have been talking about the situation in Liangzhou, and Su Jiu'er is not very interested in those.
"Thank you Brother Chen this time, if it weren't for Brother Chen's help, I wouldn't know how to deal with this difficulty, I don't understand, why is it that the emperor still doesn't let the warehouse open the grain when it comes to this situation?" An Zeqing turned his head to look at Chen Shaobin and asked with a confused expression.
"The treasury is empty," Chen Shaobin pursed his lips tightly, frowning slightly, "Now the real power is no longer in the hands of the emperor, not to mention that the northern Xiongnu are eyeing the people, and it is impossible for the grain in Shatai County to be distributed to the people, so it is necessary to leave the army in Liangzhou as grain and grass." ”
When Gu Feng heard Chen Shaobin say this, his face became more and more embarrassed, "The situation in the capital is already so tense?" ”
Chen Shaobin glanced at An Zeqing worriedly, and breathed a sigh of relief, "The emperor's body is tough, but a few princes can't bear it, this royal matter is really too complicated." ”
"I took the exam in the capital this year, and I also found out that several princes wanted me to help." An Zeqing sighed wistfully, his chest trembling slightly, "I heard that the emperor is still looking for the princess born to the noble concubine?" ”
As soon as the word "princess" was mentioned, An Zeqing and Gu Feng became nervous at the same time, even if the two of them wanted to know the situation in the capital now.
"The surrounding small countries are restless, and all the princesses of my dynasty can marry out, and the emperor thinks that if there is still a princess, it will reduce the pressure on the border." Chen Shaobin said, his eyes rolled on An Zeqing's face, and he said with a smile, "Brother An, after this year, you must be careful, if the eldest prince sends someone to promote you next year, you don't have to refuse, just agree." ”
Su Jiu'er listened to Chen Shaobin's words, and suddenly remembered that An Zeqing was promoted to the capital because of his meritorious service in taking care of the people.
Now that I think about it, it turned out that An Zeqing was on the side of the eldest prince.
An Zeqing lowered his voice and glanced at Chen Shaobin with some melancholy, "I know." ”
Su Jiu'er didn't understand such a private matter in the court, why did Chen Shaobin say it in front of Gu Feng.
Su Jiu'er saw Chen Shaobin get up and walk in front of Gu Feng, leaned into his ear and said a few words.
"Yes." Gu Feng replied in a low voice and nodded.
Su Jiu'er was really confused, and when she looked carefully, she found that Chen Shaobin turned his head and looked over, so frightened that he took a step back, as if he was electrocuted.
It was impossible for Chen Shaobin to see her, Su Jiu'er didn't dare to listen, so she hurriedly walked to the bedside, took out the sewing basket and began to do embroidery.
Why did Chen Shaobin help An Zeqing, this is something that Su Jiu'er has always been puzzled about.
In the previous life, Chen Shaobin often came to Anfu to eat, and An Zeqing also took her to the table to eat.
She suddenly remembered Chen Shaobin's eyes looking at An Zeqing, those fiery eyes were not like looking at ordinary people's eyes, but ......
Chen Shaobin likes An Zeqing?
Whether it was in the previous life or in this life, Su Jiu'er finally figured out why Chen Shaobin always took care of An Zeqing, and it turned out that he had different thoughts about An Zeqing.
Chen Shaobin seems to have never married a wife, it seems that it is not that he has no woman he likes, but because the person he likes is not a woman.
Does An Zeqing know about this?
Su Jiu'er was suddenly a little worried about An Zeqing.
It's just that as soon as this thought came out, Su Jiu'er immediately strangled the idea of caring about An Zeqing in the cradle.
At noon, An Zeqing and Chen Shaobin also had dinner at Gu's house, and after lunch, Gu Feng and Su Jiu'er sent the two people away.
Looking at the carriage that was moving away, Su Jiu'er looked at Gu Feng on the side worriedly, and asked in a low voice, "Xianggong, what is Lord An doing at our house?" ”
"Two thousand taels of silver tickets." Gu Feng said, took out two silver tickets from his chest and handed them to Su Jiu'er, "Pay back the money." ”
"Didn't you say that Lord An has no money in his hands?" Su Jiu'er frowned slightly, looking at Gu Feng in confusion.
"It was Chen Gongzi who helped out." Gu Feng said, stretched out his hand to hold Su Jiu'er's shoulder and walked towards the house, saying as he walked, "Gongzi Chen came back from the capital, and he has a good relationship with An Zeqing. ”
"When I was serving tea at that meeting, I heard you talk about important things in the court," Su Jiu'er pursed her lips slightly and whispered, "Can we ordinary people talk about the court casually?" ”
"It's nature." Gu Feng replied affirmatively, and while there was no one in the courtyard, he leaned over to Su Jiu'er and printed a kiss on his forehead, "Our emperor is a saint and allows the people to discuss the affairs of the court." ”
It turned out that this was the case, no wonder Gu Feng would talk to An Zeqing every time he talked about things in the court, it turned out that men all said this.
"Wait until next year, An Zeqing may have to go to the capital, and I don't know what kind of person our county master of Shatai County will be in the future, I'm afraid that he will be a faint official, and then we will really have a hard time here!" Gu Feng sighed helplessly and said in a low voice.
Su Jiu'er lowered her head a little confused, did she think too much, in fact, Chen Shaobin was not reborn at all, but because he liked An Zeqing, he would do those things.
Now calculate the time, when Chen Shaobin came in the previous life, An Zeqing had already married Zhao Xiuer, but in this life, An Zeqing had not married a wife and had children.
She, did she help An Zeqing invisibly?
She was sold and still helped count the money?
Su Jiu'er only felt a headache and a black eye, so she didn't know anything.
