Chapter 12: Guiyang Taojia
The sun sinks in the west, and the sun sets at dusk.
As the night slowly enveloped the enemy, there were many maids and servants in the huge Yangjiazhuang, lighting the lanterns hanging under the eaves of the promenade throughout the manor.
The west hall is the place where the head of the Yang family sets up a family banquet on weekdays, and at the same time, it is also the place where Yang Zheng's brothers and sisters eat.
Yangjiazhuang occupies a large area, just for those maids and servants to rest, there are hundreds, as for the rest of the garden rockery, front yard, back yard, main hall, flower hall, no less than a dozen.
After all, the Yang family has a population of hundreds and such a large family business is placed here.
Today is the first day that the fourth lady of the Yang family has lifted the ground, in order to make up for this ghostly girl, Yang Zheng also specially instructed the kitchen to make a few of her usual favorite side dishes.
At this moment, in the brightly lit west hall, Yang Zheng, as the head of the family, sat directly above the main seat of the dining table, and the second brother Yang Qian and the fourth sister Yang Yunhui sat on his left and right sides respectively.
As the maids brought plates of dishes full of color and fragrance to the table, at this time, Yang Zheng waved his hand and said, "Let's eat." ”
Hearing this, Yang Yunhui, who couldn't hold back for a long time, immediately picked up the dishes and chopsticks, and devoured them.
Seeing this, Yang Qian on one side secretly shook his head.
Yang Zheng turned his head to look at Yang Yunhui, frowned, and said, "Is the starving ghost reincarnated?" It's okay for you to eat like this at home, if you go to Tao's house in the future, won't you be disgusted to death by your in-laws. ”
Yang Yunhui took the food in her mouth and said vaguely: "If Tao Yunlong dares to dislike me, I will not marry, and I will let my brothers support me for a lifetime in the future." ”
Yang Qian slowly served a bowl of soup for her, and said lightly: "It's good to talk about it now, when your Yunlong brother comes tomorrow, it is estimated that you will have already thrown our brothers out of the clouds." ”
As soon as these words came out, Yang Yunhui's pretty face flushed, and she pursed her lips on the spot and said, "I don't have it, second ...... Second brother, you hate it the most, and you make fun of him every time. ”
Yang Qian lowered his head and smiled, silent.
"Okay, okay, let's eat quickly, the food is almost cold, your second brother was joking with you just now." Yang Zheng clipped a chicken leg for her, glanced at her outfit today, and couldn't help but shake her head secretly.
This little girl, although she is only sixteen years old this year, dresses like a tomboy.
At this age, all the girls are greased and powdered, wearing red and green, and wearing a Luo skirt, she is good, she is wearing a dark red samurai uniform all day long, tying a cupola ponytail, at first glance, it really has a bit of a man's demeanor.
If it weren't for Yang Yunhui's overly handsome appearance, it is estimated that most people would mistakenly think she was a man.
Yang Yunhui not only dresses like a man, but also has a similar personality.
From childhood to adulthood, Yang Jiazhuang's favorite person to make trouble is the third brother Yang Meng and her, especially the third brother, who taught her some fist and foot kung fu, and this girl is even more amazing.
Last time, Yang Yunhui secretly went to Wu'an County to play, but met a few gentlemen who were molesting a girl from a good family, with this girl's pungent personality, where would she endure it, and it was a slap on the spot, and almost abolished the descendants of one of the gentlemen.
Otherwise, with the power of the Gentleman's family, it is estimated that she would have been imprisoned a long time ago.
Thinking of this, Yang Zheng sighed secretly, fortunately, this girl is a daughter, if it is a boy, it is estimated that Yangjiazhuang will not be able to be peaceful.
"Big brother, tomorrow is the Double Ninth Festival, according to the practice of previous years, the Guiyang Tao family will come to our Yangjiazhuang to send the festival, and when the time comes, we have to prepare some return gifts." Yang Qian filled his eldest brother's wine glass, and then poured another glass for himself.
Seeing him mention the Double Ninth Festival, Yang Zheng remembered that there would be this tomorrow.
Guiyang Tao family and Qingping Town Yang family, the two families are world friends, especially Yang Zheng's father and Tao Yunlong's father, it is a friend of life and death, as early as more than ten years, the two families set up a baby parent, saying that when Yang Yunhui grows up, he will marry the Tao family to be a daughter-in-law.
After the two families had an agreement on in-law, the Guiyang Tao family would send the young head of the family, Tao Yunlong, to send a festival gift every year, and these rules were some secular etiquette in this strange ancient world.
Yang Zheng lowered his head and thought for a moment, "The matter of returning the gift, second brother, you can decide for yourself, during this time, everything in the family will be taken care of by you." ”
"Okay."
Yang Qian nodded and didn't say anything more.
He knew very well in his heart that the eldest brother was heartbroken today in order to save the third brother, and he really didn't have much of the mood to pay attention to other trivial matters.
looked at the little sister sitting opposite, and found that her bright eyes were shining, presumably because she was very happy to learn that Tao Yunlong was coming tomorrow.
Seeing this scene, the two brothers glanced at each other, and they both sighed secretly in their hearts, "It's really a big girl." ”
After dinner, several brothers and sisters sat together and chatted for a while, seeing that it was getting late, Yang Zheng let everyone disperse, and each went back to rest early, after all, tomorrow is the Double Ninth Festival, and there are a lot of things to prepare in Yangjiazhuang.
However, before leaving, Yang Yunhui secretly pulled Yang Zheng aside and said in a low voice: "Big brother, is the third brother more auspicious this time?" ”
Yang Zheng rarely saw her look so gloomy, her heart warmed on the spot, and she comforted softly: "Don't worry, there is everything and the eldest brother is here, after ten days, I guarantee that your third brother can return safe and sound." ”
Hearing this, Yang Yunhui lowered her head, "But the second brother said, we can't take out the ransom of 30,000 taels demanded by Black Tiger Village, and when the time comes, those thieves will definitely kill them." ”
Yang Zheng's face turned pale, and he pretended to be unhappy and said: "I said it all, I have my own way to rescue the third brother, and you have a daughter's family, so don't worry about it." ”
"Big brother, I'm ...... Am I useless, I will only make trouble for you, and I can't help you with anything......" Yang Yunhui looked up at her eldest brother's eyes, but her eyes were already red.
When Yang Zheng saw her like this, he couldn't help but feel distressed in his heart, and immediately stroked her hair, and said softly: "Don't think too much, everything is with the eldest brother." ”
Seeing that the little sister was so sad about the third brother's affairs, Yang Zheng didn't want to dwell on this topic anymore, so he deliberately diverted the topic and said: "Tomorrow the Tao family in Guiyang will come to send off the festival, you go back tonight to sleep well, dress up more beautifully tomorrow morning, don't dress like a man like today, scare Tao Yunlong away when the time comes, I don't have the ability to find an excellent brother-in-law like him for you." ”
As soon as these words came out, Yang Yunhui couldn't help but burst into laughter, and said stiffly on the spot: "Scare away, scare away, I'm not rare......"
………………
In the middle of the night, the oil lamp was still on in Yang Zheng's bedroom.
After dinner, he stayed in his bedroom, quietly waiting for the dawn of the morning.
According to the rules of the Infinity Arsenal, after twelve o'clock in the middle of the night every day, he will regain the opportunity to enter the Infinity Armory, and he will also have two minutes to carry weapons.
In order not to waste the opportunity to carry weapons every day, Yang Zheng had to use this opportunity to carry weapons, so that he could go to bed and rest with peace of mind.
After all, after today, there are only eight short days left before the deadline for Black Tiger Village to demand ransom.
During these eight days, he had to carry as many weapons and equipment as he could from the Infinity Armory.
Besides, he has selected fifty loyal and reliable family members from Yangjiazhuang, these people have to train every day, if they don't prepare more crossbow arrows, I'm afraid it will affect the progress of everyone's training.
Pushing open the window and looking at the moonlight outside, Yang Zheng felt that the time was almost up, so he closed his eyes on the spot and touched the mysterious light hidden in the depths of his mind with his thoughts.
Sure enough, a familiar and cold mechanical voice came from the depths of my mind again.
"Do you want to enter the Infinity Arsenal immediately?"
"I'm going to get into the armory right now!" Yang Zheng replied without thinking.
The moment he responded, his body vanished out of thin air.
