Chapter 339: Spoils of War
The villagers looked at each other, although there was a touch of joy in their eyes, but in the end they still felt ashamed, they just came to see the excitement, thinking that they would stand and cheer and earn the favor of the Zhao family, where did they know that they were almost thrown into prison with their legs discounted, and they were not small, but the market price of a horse was dozens of taels of silver, and they were really taken to the house, and they were afraid that they would not even be able to sleep well.
One of them, Uncle Yun Qi, who was a little older, took the lead and said, "Brother An is polite, they all live in a village, and the children are bullied, and everyone can't look at it, so they come out and take a look, it should be, where can everyone ask for such a valuable horse?" Brother An should rush back, it just so happens that the tofu in the workshop can also be used. ”
"That's it, that's it." A dozen people behind him also nodded, but the eyes were already searching the herd of horses next to him.
Amber smiled and shook his head, "There are so many horses, our Zhao family is left and there is no place to raise them, everyone should help raise them, take one back, you also know the temper of the boss, if you listen to everyone help today, we are still so stingy, we don't care about some trophies, I'm afraid we will cut off my wine and food." ”
The villagers all knew that this old man was good at wine and food, and when they saw that he looked like a naughty boy who had been robbed of food, they laughed and said, "Okay, we will be disrespectful." ”
Amber waved his hand and motioned for them to pick and choose, and everyone immediately rushed over, leading the good horses they had been in love with for a long time, and their faces bloomed with smiles.
Mu San stood beside Wu Lie and said with a smile, "Brother Wu, don't blame, this should have been your trophy, but it was used by us as a favor. ”
Wu Lie shook his head, didn't care at all, and said, "Yue'er must have been taken care of by them on weekdays, and they should get more benefits." ”
Mu San raised his eyebrows, and a touch of melancholy flashed in his eyes, this young general has strong martial arts, bold and generous, and has a rich family background, and has a deep affection for his second sister-in-law, no matter which way you look at it, she is the second brother's fierce rival, tomorrow I will send a letter to the second brother, let's be a reminder, if he can come back, it will be better.
After the villagers finished picking the horses, the Zhao family still had sixteen horses left, and Amber asked Zhang Dahe and a few people to step forward to lead a horse, but they said that they would rush back to the Zhao family first, until Amber kept nodding with satisfaction, these people in the workshop really had nothing to say about the loyalty of the Zhao family.
Mu San stretched out his hand and pressed on Kuroko's back, entered with a soft true qi, asked a few words, and heard that this kid said that he didn't faint, so he carried him on his back and returned with a few children first.
Ben Lei seems to understand what is happening today, because someone covets it and rises, hiding in a group of tall horses, from time to time poking his head out to look at the little master walking in front of him, that looks like a rabbit hiding from a goshawk, which makes people very funny.
Wu Yu couldn't look at its unpromising appearance, and with a light call, it immediately trotted over, shaking its long face and arching its master's arm flatteringly.
Niuniu walked aside, and when she saw it, she sneered, "What master and what horse, what a coward, really cowardly." ”
"You're as timid as a mouse, who was so tired that you stuck out your tongue like a dog?" Wu Yu immediately ridiculed each other, and the two quarreled together, and everyone was used to it, laughing and listening, but the worries in their hearts were diluted a lot.
Rui Xue was in a hurry in the house, and sent Caiyun Caiyue to guard the gate and the second gate, and finally looked forward to the return of the old grandmother and Jian Wu first, so she hurriedly asked, "How is the grandmother?" Are the kids hurt? ”
The old lady took her hand and comforted, "Miss, don't worry, it's okay, we just came out of the village not far away, and we saw them going back, so I was afraid that Miss was in a hurry, so I came back to say it first." ”
Jian Wu also said, "The young general also went with those guards, we have a lot of manpower, and we can't afford to lose." ”
Rui Xue was a little relieved, and sure enough, after a while, a few children entered the yard noisily, and when they arrived at the door of the main house, Niuniu immediately put her finger to her lips, shhhhh
Wu Yu rolled her eyes a few times, her voice was the loudest, okay?
As soon as Rui Xue saw that Heizi was being helped by Da Zhuang and Wu Yu to turn the screen, she immediately stepped forward to help him sit on the soft couch and asked, "Heizi, tell Shiniang, where do you hurt?" ”
Kuroko smirked, wanting to scratch the back of his head, but he pulled his belly, and ouched, Rui Xue was anxious, and immediately went to lift this kid's shirt, and saw the bruises on his body that were plucked out by the stones, and said angrily, "You kid, why are you stupid, you know a few three-legged cat kung fu, you think you are invincible in the world, you can't beat it, you run away, isn't it just a horse, just come back and find someone to take it back, why did you get a whole body injury!" ”
She said that she also wanted to look at Kuroko's back, Kuroko felt that he was already a twelve-year-old young man, how could he let the master look naked, her face was red with shame, and she pulled her shirt and refused to lift it any more.
Rui Xue was helpless, and asked the laughing Da Zhuang and Wu Yu again, "Has Amber checked the pulse of Heizi?" ”
Wu Yu nodded, "Amber said that it didn't hurt the bones, just rub some medicine and wine to melt the bruises." ”
Ruixue immediately turned her head and shouted to Caiyun, "Go to Amber and get the medicine and wine back." Caiyun answered, Heizi was clamoring to go to the West Wing to rub medicine, Ruixue asked Wu Yu to help him out, and then left Da Zhuang to ask carefully, and the more he listened, the deeper his brows wrinkled.
She has lived in Yunjia Village for more than a year, and has entered the city many times, but she has never encountered such evil things, even the wharf and the shops in the city, and she has not seen how the officials are embarrassed.
Unexpectedly, such a second ancestor suddenly appeared, eyeing Ben Lei, causing this trouble, if it weren't for Wu Lie here today, I'm afraid it would be really difficult, after all, the Zhao family is only a small businessman, no one in the officialdom, a few sons of An Bomu, he is a native of the rivers and lakes, and he has a lot of scruples, as well as the Marquis of Anguo Mansion that she just inherited, I heard this name is very imposing, but a Hou Ye who has been dead for more than ten years, I am afraid that even a small official can't be shocked.
Today's matter, I'm afraid it's not over yet, and there will definitely be trouble in the future, so I can't say that she will continue to "rely on" this young general who is unwilling to approach.
"Caiyue, you and Xiao Cui'er went to buy a table of banquets, sent them to the east wing, and let Yingzi add two good dishes in the big kitchen, so that everyone was frightened, this is my Zhao family's heart."
Caiyue responded, so she ran out to prepare, and Da Zhuang was worried about the sunspot, so he also saluted and went to the west wing.
The old lady saw that her face was still not good, so she went to the bed and hugged Brother Xiao'er to take a look, and said, "Miss, Brother Xiao'er is afraid that he is hungry, feed him a few bites." ”
Rui Xue absentmindedly took it, untied her clothes, and fed her son, Brother Xiao'er's little mouth was red and gorgeous, his eyes were closed, he ate hard, his little face was bulging, it was very cute, Niuniu looked interesting, so she poked it with her fingers, which made this kid frown, and she smiled crisply and happily.
The old lady hugged Yiran in her arms, swayed slowly, and whispered comfortingly, "Miss, are you worried that those people will come to the door again tomorrow?" ”
Rui Xue nodded, "Mama, you know, it's not good for me to have too deep entanglements with the young general now, after all, I am already the daughter-in-law of the Zhao family, but thanks to him today, I already owe a favor." Even if these are not mentioned for the time being, after all, he can't live in our house for the rest of his life, when he is there, the Jin family may not dare to move, if he leaves, I am afraid that the Zhao family will be in a catastrophe in an instant, with An Bo and Mu Gongzi, as well as Jian Wuqin Xin, it is not difficult to ensure that our family is safe and avoid Tongcheng, but I am afraid that it will affect the villagers in this village..."
The old lady's heart moved, and she suddenly felt that the things she was considering a few days ago might be able to take this opportunity to bring it up, and her heart quickly turned around a few times, and her face became embarrassed, as if she had a thousand words in her belly, but it was difficult to say it, and she hesitated.
Rui Xue saw it, and said, "Mama has something to say, it's all her own family, but it's okay to talk about it." ”
The old lady changed her arms and hugged Yiran, and after thinking about it, she said, "Actually, Miss, Miss doesn't have to take this matter to heart today, let alone the son of a Fu Yin, even when the old son of the Prime Minister's Pavilion came, he didn't dare to bully Miss at will."
Although the lord and the lady went early, the house left some manpower for the young lady. Dozens of veterans who followed Hou Ye to fight on the battlefield, because of their disabilities, were left in the house by Hou Ye to recuperate, after they recovered from their illness, they happened to hear that Hou Ye died in battle, so they took over the family to protect Miss and Mrs. for Hou Ye, and did not want Mrs. to go later, so they stayed and gathered the boys in their family together to practice martial arts, formed a guard team, and swore allegiance to Miss.
Originally, the old slave had been persuading the young lady to bring them into the general's mansion, but the young lady said that she didn't want to provoke the suspicion of the general's family, so she refused to live or die, and the old slave couldn't, so she kept them in the waiting mansion.
After the accident of the young lady, I went out to look for it directly with the guards sent back by the major general, and they were not idle, almost rummaging through most of the martial arts, until I sent the news last month, and I rushed back to the Houfu.
If the young lady nods, the old slave will send a letter asking them to come and protect the young lady. ”
Rui Xue was a little stunned when she heard this, she didn't know that in addition to those useless maids and wives in the Anguo Marquis Mansion, there was actually such a guard force, and the real Chen Shuangyue was really stupid and breathable, if she only had two guards by her side, I was afraid that she would not be so easily framed by the general's wife that day.
Jian Wu and Qin Xin on the side, who were originally tidying up the clothes and bedding of the two children, listened to the conversation between Ruixue's master and servant, and each other's eyes were a little shocked, after all, the iron boss didn't say Ruixue's identity at the beginning, they thought that they were protecting an ordinary small householder, these days the young general and his party came to the door, they saw some clues, but they didn't guess that Ruixue's identity was so noble, Miss Anguohoufu, this is a real golden branch and jade leaf.
The old lady glanced at them quietly, secretly proud in her heart, since she came back, she learned that these two girls were here to protect Miss, and began to think about subduing their hearts for Miss, and today or so I also want to persuade Miss, so I simply piggyback and beat them, don't rely on some of your own kung fu, and don't put the kind-hearted master in your eyes in the future?
