Northside?

When Mu Qiange heard these two words, his heart was slightly sour, and he couldn't say it. The joy of choosing a favorite silver bracelet and silver lock for Xiao Yang was instantly dispersed, and he took the box stupidly, forgot to thank him, and walked home fugue.

When she arrived at the door, she took a deep breath and tried to lift her spirits.

Now that Ah Jin has an accident, Xiao Yang was originally very worried, if he is so depressed again, his family will completely collapse.

She barely managed to squeeze out a smile and strode in with the box.

Noon had passed, and there were no customers in the store now. The tables and chairs were wiped clean, and Xiao Yang and Zhuangzi were wiping the handrails of the stairs with rags.

She took a deep breath and shouted with a smile:

"Xiao Yang, Zhuangzi, it's been a tiring day, come, rest."

Because only spicy seeds are grown in the field now, it is a lot more leisurely all of a sudden. Aunt Li's family and her family worked in the field by themselves, taking advantage of the delivery of the strong son, and lived in the town for a few days by the way.

No, Zhuangzi was not idle when he came, and she ran to the hall with Xiao Yang to keep accounts, and she suddenly felt a lot easier.

"Sister Qiange is back."

Zhuangzi put down the rag in his hand with a smile, took all the large and small paper bags in Mu Qian's singer and put them on the table, and poured hot tea and held it over: "There are a lot of guests here today, I wrote down the account book according to the method you taught, and my sister will take a look in a while to see if there is anything wrong." “

"Zhuangzi is doing things, I don't worry."

She took the tea, with a look of exhaustion under the corners of her eyes, and still cheered up to encourage her: "You have been here these days, Xiao Yang has made me feel a lot more relieved." ”

"Sister Qiange."

Xiao Yang was reluctant when he heard it, and coquettishly: "Sister Qiange didn't see it, the guests who came here today praised me." Lo and behold, the bounty was also given. ”

As her white hand opened, there were two silver beans lying in the palm of her hand.

Mu Qiange glanced at first, but after seeing it clearly, he immediately sat up straight.

Just like the character, the people of the north like to make gold and silver into the shape of peanuts, melon seeds, and leaves for rewards. And there are a lot of millet in Shu, which is cast into small beans with these gold and silver things.

Mu Qiange grabbed the small silver bean in her hand: "The soldier is here today?" ”

"Not really."

Xiao Yang didn't notice that something was wrong, and described today's scene with joy: "Sister Qiange, don't you know, there are a lot of soldiers here today, and the first and second floors are full. More than half of our family's wine is gone, and in the end, many of them are cold and cucumbers are also under a jar of wine, which is really drinkable. ”

"Really?"

Mu Qiange stood up in a panic and ran to the inner room to take a look, and sure enough, the wine jar was more than half empty.

Only the soldiers of the North can drink like this.

However, with the tug-of-war in the north, the two main generals were injured and missing one after another, and the military camp in the north has not been closed for a month, and the situation is very tight

Zhang, as if he was about to break out, didn't expect to have a holiday today.

So, the two sons are also back?

"Sister Qiange." Zhuangzi was a little sorry: "Brother Yang came back just now, but I just saw that you weren't doing it, and when I came back, I took a shower and changed my clothes and left, and I was given two hours off today." ”

Mu Qiange suddenly regretted it, she knew that she wouldn't go to see the silver lock first, she hadn't seen Dayang for a long time, and she couldn't think about it. At the critical moment, it is good to ask what the situation is in the north, and what is the situation in Ah Jin.

Seeing the annoyance on her face, Zhuangzi hurriedly persuaded: "But Sister Qiange, Brother Yang said that the prince named General Wu is back, so from now on, the military camp will officially start to rest, and when they are fifteen, they will be able to come back." ”

"What!"

Mu Qiange was taken aback: "Didn't you say that General Wu was seriously injured, why did he come back?" ”

Zhuangzi and Xiao Yang both shook their heads, and Xiao Yang seemed to remember something: "By the way, Sister Qiange, Brother Ah Jin has been here for so long, when will you come back?" ”

Looking at her expectant eyes, Mu Qiange felt extremely uncomfortable.

The news of Ah Jin's accident, the family knows it, but it is hiding it from Xiao Yang. I am afraid that others will be irrational, and I am also afraid that he will be sad.

Reluctantly smiled: "It should be soon, how can there be an accurate start to the war." ”

Xiao Yang pouted, and said negatively: "Brother Ah Jin doesn't talk much, and he said that it has been more than two months, and if he doesn't come back, I won't like him anymore." ”

"Xiao Yang."

Zhuangzi didn't feel good in her heart, she had already heard the rumors, and she looked at Mu Qiange with a sad face but still cheering up. hurriedly went to comfort Xiao Yang, lest she say that it would be more uncomfortable to call Sister Qiange:

"Don't worry, Brother Ah Jin will definitely come back."

Facing Zhuangzi's comforting eyes, Mu Qiangege's heart warmed, and before he could speak, he heard a vicious voice from outside the door behind him:

"Come back? Your brother Ah Jin has already died outside, it is estimated that he has done a lot of bad things, and God has punished him, so that he can't even find the bones, haha! ”

The familiar voice made Mu Qiange feel disgusted as if he was filthy, and when he turned his head, he saw that it was really Zhang Gui, followed by a few thugs with sticks.

Mu Qiange suddenly froze, squinted his eyes and said fiercely: "It's actually you, are you still alive?" ”

"Yes, Uncle is still alive."

Zhang Gui spat thick phlegm on the ground fiercely, the corners of his mouth were crooked, and he didn't smile and said: "You slut has a poisonous hand, and you want my life several times or three times." It's a pity, uncle, my life is hard, you are destined to not be able to take it away. Now, let's talk about it too. ”

With that, the evil smile pressed towards her step by step.

Mu Qiange stretched out his hand to protect Xiao Yang and Zhuangzi behind him, his eyes were vigilant, and he scolded sharply: "Zhang Gui, since you have picked up a dog's life, you should do it yourself." With such repeated provocations, aren't you afraid of being cleaned up again? ”

"Pick me up?

”

Zhang Gui seemed to have heard some big joke, hahahaha laughed back and forth, and Mu Qiange, who was laughing, was creepy, and his hairs stood on end. Only then did he stop abruptly and grin at her viciously.

"Mu Qiange, are you addicted to self-deception? Your man, as early as a month and a half ago, fell into the Qinhuai River. Your two sons are now in the barracks, and it's hard to say whether they will survive tonight. I think you'd better worry about yourself first. ”

"What did you say!"

Mu Qiange grabbed the corner of the table in disbelief to support his crumbling body.

"I say, your flower messenger is going to go underground to accompany your short-lived man."

Zhang Gui smiled, revealing a row of yellow bright teeth in front of him, and his eyes were vicious: "Mu Qiange, at that time, you will be alone, and there will be a little mongrel by your side." Tut-tut, it's so pitiful! ”

"You, you don't talk nonsense there!"

Zhuangzi walked out from behind Mu Qiange, grabbed her arm, and scolded indignantly: "What kind of place is the barracks, do you think that a scoundrel like you can meddle in?" ”

This sentence instantly woke up Mu Qiange.

But no, a place like a military camp is heavily guarded, and it is not allowed to move around at will. This Zhang Gui almost deceived himself.

Thinking that Zhang Gui was actually talking about his son's safety, Mu Qiange couldn't help but get angry, and said fiercely: "Zhang Gui, you are not welcome here, don't hurry up!" ”

The two sides confronted each other, especially when the other party was still a group of men with sticks, and she was very weak at this time. But you still have to make a tough appearance and protect the children behind you.

"Tut-tut-tut."

Zhang Gui shook his head exaggeratedly: "Mu Qiange, do you think that this time it is really me who came to you for trouble?" ”

What does this mean?

Others are standing in front of him right now, it's not that he's looking for trouble, isn't it still a ghost?

Zhang Gui was not in a hurry or slow, he simply scooped up a stool and sat down.

Mu Qiange's sharp eyes found that when he sat down, his expression suddenly became very painful, as if he was experiencing some kind of torture.

"Yo, see?"

After sitting down, Zhang Gui tapped his leg with his chin: "Thanks to your man's blessing, it was broken here, and it was picked up later." ”

He stretched out his hand again and shook it in front of her.

Zhuangzi and Xiao Yang behind him couldn't hold back, exclaimed, and then covered their mouths.

Mu Qiange also endured his nausea, looking at his outstretched arm, which was cut off from his wrist, and his palm was missing, like a mallet, it was very terrifying.

"Are you scared?"

Zhang Gui's eyes were full of hideousness, he looked at Xiao Yang, and laughed angrily: "This is all done by your brother Ah Jin, I haven't complained yet, why did I scare you like this." ”

Xiao Yang's face was white, he endured the discomfort, and he was bold: "You deserve it, who told you to steal my family's money."

。 ”

"Shut up!"

Zhang Gui raised his voice suddenly, and at the same time slammed the table with the arm mallet, not scaring others, but choking himself enough. Suddenly jumped up and cried wolf, and sweat came down.

It was easy to calm down, he covered the broken wrist, raised his head viciously, and his eyes showed a fierce light: "Take a piece of silver, and you will waste one of Lao Tzu's hands." Then your brother Ah Jin has offended so many people, and I don't know if Da Yang's life can be guaranteed tonight. ”

"Zhang Gui!"

Mu Qiange stopped him: "You don't talk about it, if something comes to me!" It was me who wanted to report to the official at the beginning, and it has nothing to do with my eldest brother Yang."

"Hey, hey!"

He smiled fiercely, approaching step by step, and the words squeezed out from between his teeth: "Do you think Lao Tzu will let you go?" ”

Mu Qiange's back was sweating, and his heartbeat was strong, but he still raised his head, firmly protecting the two children behind him, and refused to lose at all in his momentum.

Her eyes were glancing out at the same time, trying to see the scene as someone passed by.

However, this place is originally in a remote corner, and if it is not for people who come to eat, it is natural that no pedestrians will pass by. Especially at this hour, it's already twilight outside.

Zhang Gui saw her intention and waved his hand: "Don't look at it, this time you are blind in both eyes, and no one will come to save you." ”

I don't know if he suddenly thinks this game of cat and mouse is good, or if he has the best idea of tonight's affairs, he suddenly returned to his original bench and sat down.

commanded the dog's legs behind him arrogantly: "You go, bring the altar wine to Lao Tzu." ”

The person behind him hesitated: "It's better to do what Master Chen arranged earlier." ”

"Lao Tzu still needs you to pay it?"

Zhang Gui glared at him: "What are you talking about, don't hurry up!" ”

The man couldn't, so he hung his head and went over and took the jar of wine, opened it, and poured it for him.

It's a pity that it's inconvenient to eat a wine without hands, Zhang Guijin drank half a bowl, and half a bowl was sprinkled on the placket.

Seeing that he had no time to take care of himself at this moment, Mu Qiange lowered his voice and said to the two children behind him: "Sister Qiange will come to mediate in a while, you can quickly run to the kitchen and block the door when you have time." There is a back door in the kitchen, which can lead directly to the outside, so hurry up and report to the official! ”

Xiao Yang was anxious: "Sister Qiange." ”

"Sister Qiange." Zhuangzi hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I will take care of Xiao Yang." ”
