Bai Lan followed behind Sanniang and entered the courtyard without saying a word. Bai Ying looked at Wang Jing and immediately buried her head in keeping up.

Wang Jing looked at the empty alley, reluctantly closed the door, and turned around.

Sanniang looked at this low yard, although it was dilapidated, it looked tidy, but the yard was relatively empty, there was no breath of life, and the owner should have moved in not long ago.

The man who opened the door just now was standing in the courtyard at this time, looking at the three people who suddenly broke in in front of him, grinning, without the slightest sense of embarrassment that his lie was exposed on the spot.

Wang Jing thought about it, and still said to Sanniang: "This is Third Brother Zhang, I don't know if you still remember." ”

Sanniang looked at Zhang San, groaned slightly, and then suddenly said, "It turned out to be Zhang Sange." Sanniang still remembers the name Zhang San. When they were in Qingcheng County, Sanniang and Wang Jing went to Qingming Temple to make a dojo for the Zhao family, and on the way back, they met a group of villagers who touched porcelain. At that time, the name of the group of villages was led by this Zhang San.

After that, Zhang San also saved Wang Jing once, and Wang Jing mentioned Zhang San in front of Sanniang more than once, and he was always full of praise when he talked about him. Therefore, even if Sanniang has never seen Zhang San's appearance, she is no stranger to this person.

Zhang San hugged the coupon: "I didn't know it was Miss San just now, and I thought I was here to trouble Brother Wang, so I was offended, and I asked Miss not to blame." ”

Sanniang saluted Zhang San and said sincerely: "Thank you Sange Zhang for helping my brother again, Sanniang thanked me again." ”

Zhang San laughed: "The third lady is serious, in fact, I also took it up the day before yesterday, and I also took the opportunity to lose my drink money." Saying that, Zhang San said to Wang Jing again: "It's cold outside." Your brothers and sisters come into the house and talk. I went out to buy some groceries. ”

Wang Jing nodded, and Zhang San smiled at Sanniang. And he went out of the courtyard.

"Come in and talk, don't get cold." Wang Jing sighed lightly and led Sanniang to the house.

The room is not very wide, there is very little furniture in it, and a big kang near the window is very large, but it is not burned, and the room is still cold. Sanniang also smelled a smell of wine.

"I told you to go back, it's cold here." Wang Jing saw Bai Ying test the temperature of the kang with his hand, and frowned.

I thought about it. He turned and walked out.

Sanniang only glanced at it casually, and the futon on the kang looked like new. It's pretty clean. Still, she sat down on the only chair in the room.

After a while, Wang Jing came back, still holding a small iron pot in his hand.

Sanniang was stunned for a moment, and looked into the pot, but saw that it was all burned through and turned into charcoal.

Wang Jing put the iron pot at Sanniang's feet: "Only this pot can hold carbon, you will just have some, sit and rest for a while and go back." ”

Sanniang watched Wang Jing carefully pay attention to the distance between her feet and the iron pot. Let her feel the temperature. It won't stain the shoes and skirts, and I can't help but feel warm in my heart.

Wang Jing has always been a good brother, and this has never changed.

"Brother. When are you going home? Sanniang looked at Wang Jing and said.

When Wang Jing heard this, he bowed his head and stood aside without words.

Although Sanniang didn't ask again, she looked at Wang Jing with a pair of eyes and waited.

In the middle of the sound, Wang Jing suddenly opened his mouth, and his voice was a little dry: "I...... Don't want to go back. ”

The room was quiet, Bai Lan and Bai Ying glanced at each other, and both of them retreated with great eyes. Stood under the eaves.

Sanniang stretched out her hand from the cloak and put it on top of the charcoal basin, the warmth came from her fingertips and palms, and after a while, her whole body was warm, only her feet were still a little cold.

"So where do you want to go? Do what? Sanniang asked softly, her voice was still gentle and slow, as if talking to Wang Jing was just a small thing that was not a big deal.

Wang Jing listened to Sanniang's voice, and his originally agitated mood eased down. He walked to the kang and sat down, but he was silent for a long time.

Sanniang didn't bother him, only carefully roasted the palms and backs of his hands, Wang Jing looked at the charcoal fire in the iron pot next to Sanniang's feet, as if he was thinking seriously.

When Sanniang felt that her feet were also warm, she finally looked up at Wang Jing and said softly: "Brother, we are no longer children, and we naturally can't do things just on impulse." In the past few years, you have also learned a lot of things in the outer courtyard, and you are naturally a lot stronger than me, a boudoir woman. You tell me, you don't want to go home, what can you do outside? ”

I didn't want Wang Jing to say seriously: "I want to go to the army." ”

"What?" Sanniang was stunned.

Wang Jing seemed to have figured out something, looked at Sanniang and said: "I want to go to the army, I don't want to miss those boring 'Zhihu people', because of the relationship between my family, I entered the best official school in Beijing." But every time I see those square words, I feel irritable, and I want to doze off when I look at my classmates shaking their heads and reading. I didn't understand why the Wang family would produce such unfilial descendants as me, but it wasn't until the day before yesterday that I understood that ......"

Speaking of this, Wang Jing's voice lowered, and his eyes were a little dim. After a while, he continued: "I've figured it out, I didn't make a decision on the spur of the moment. Because when I made up my mind to go to Northern Xinjiang with my third brother, I felt as if I had let go of a big burden in my heart, and suddenly I was much more relaxed. ”

Although Wang Jing's voice was low, his tone was firm and his eyes were bright.

Sanniang looked at Wang Jing in front of her, and didn't know how to answer for a while.

Wang Jing is very tall, and in the last year, he has jumped even more, staying in this not spacious room, which makes the house even shorter and narrower. In the past few years, he has been practicing riding and archery and martial arts, and his body is very strong.

Sanniang actually understood that Wang Jing was indeed not suitable for reading, and even if she continued to read like this, it would be difficult to get the title of the gold list. Over the years, Wang Jing has studied hard honestly, even if he doesn't like it very much, he often reads at night. Sanniang knows that most of the reasons why Wang Jing works so hard are for herself. He always thought that only if he gained fame and fame, he would not be bullied in the Wang family.

So looking at Wang Jing in front of him, with longing, Sanniang felt that she would be very selfish if she rejected him.

However, in the Wang family, how can it be a simple matter to abandon literature and join the army? It turned out that the identity given to Wang Jing by the Wang family was actually a constraint on him. Let him keep his temperament all these years and force himself to do things he doesn't like.

After a long time, Sanniang finally sighed: "Brother, have you already decided?" ”

Wang Jing nodded and said seriously: "I thought about it for two days. ”

Sanniang got up, walked in front of Wang Jing, looked at him and suddenly smiled: "Since my brother has decided, I naturally respect my brother's intentions." ”

"Sister." Wang Jing was stunned, he didn't expect Sanniang to agree with his decision, he thought that Sanniang didn't agree with it as before. Even if he had already made up his mind, even if the people of the Wang family did not approve and were desperately driven out of the Wang family, he had made up his mind.

Perhaps he made such a decision at the beginning because he had the intention of being driven out by the Wang family. Let him go back to be the fifth young master of his Wang family with peace of mind, it is impossible for him to have no mustard in his heart.

Sanniang and Wang Jing sat side by side on the kang together, looked at him and smiled: "My brother is very good at riding and archery or martial arts, Master Deng once praised you in front of Xuan Shao." I know if you go the other way, you will be able to make a difference. Before...... It's because I'm too selfish, and brother, you're ...... for me."

Before Sanniang's words were finished, she was interrupted by Wang Jing: "No, I'm not for you, that's just the responsibility of being a descendant of the Wang family." It's just that...... If I leave the Wang family, what will you do with my sister? Wang Jing insisted that Sanniang blame herself, but she thought of Sanniang's situation again. Although Sanniang is now married, her "elder brother" is a favorable support for her in her mother's family. If it weren't for his identity, he originally planned to stay in the Wang family to protect Sanniang no matter what.

Sanniang smiled: "Brother don't worry about me, I'm already married, my uncle and father are in high positions, and my mother's family still has some face, as for you, brother, if you make a name for yourself in the future, that's also my reliance, isn't it?" ”

Wang Jing's eyes lit up, and he nodded: "That's nature." ”

Sanniang thought for a while, and then said, "Brother, I have no objection to you abandoning literature and martial arts. But I object to you leaving the royal family so quietly. ”

Wang Jing seemed to want to say something when he heard this. was interrupted by Sanniang: "Brother, can you wait a little longer?" I promise I won't keep you waiting, I'll find a way to get you to the army openly. ”

If Wang Jing left the Wang family to go to the army like this, he must start as a small soldier. On the battlefield, the most dangerous are also these soldiers who rush ahead. Sanniang wants Wang Jing not to work so hard. Maybe Wang Jing didn't think so, but Sanniang had to plan for him. And if you leave the Wang family like this, there is no way to explain to the elders of the Wang family.

Wang Jing looked at Sanniang and hesitated.

Sanniang sighed: "Why doesn't my brother trust me?" Did I lie to you? ”

Wang Jing hurriedly said: "I didn't mean that. It's just that you're already married, so it's not good to meddle in the affairs of the Wang family again. I have made up my mind to go to the army, and I will definitely make my family dissatisfied, and I don't want you to join in, and then provoke my father and them to be angry. Even if his identity has been exposed, even if he knows that he and Sanniang are not brothers and sisters, Sanniang is Wang Jing's pain from childhood to adulthood, and he has been carefully cared for. How can the invested feelings be cut off?

Sanniang smiled when she heard this: "Don't worry, I'm not that stupid." It's just that this matter can't be done in a day or two, at least until Xuan Shao comes back, and I discussed it with him. If you practice riding and archery during this time, you don't like 'Zhihu Ye', you always have to memorize the military book, right? (To be continued)
