Chapter 117: The Qiu Clan



[Chapter 5, Volume 5]

Section 594

It was very late at night, and when Wen Yanzi returned to his residence in Qishan Fort, Qiu had not yet slept, and was doing needlework by candle flame - it should be Wen Zhiqi's outer robe, and the waist was torn out of a half-foot-long tear, and Qiu was only halfway sewn. In her hand, there was Wen Yulan's little skirt, which had three or five traces of new sewing.

"Why don't you sleep yet?" After hearing that Lingzi finished talking to Wei Xinyong, he went to Zheng Sanyan and others again, sparing him in the prime of life, and he also felt tired at the moment, seeing that his wife who was busy with a day's work was still waiting for him, his heart warmed, and he said while untying his robe, "Qi'er and Lan'er are too different to talk, it's okay to run crazy all day long, I don't know how to cherish things at all!" Lan'er is also older, and in the future, she will tear the dress again and ask her to sew it herself! ”

"It's not that I can't do it, so why bother to let the child suffer this sin?" Qiu's appearance is delicate, even if he has worked all year round and has given birth to several children, his waist does not look very bloated. It is a rare beauty in the countryside, but due to the hard work of life, the corners of her eyes and eyebrows have climbed into wrinkles early.

She has always been virtuous and strict with her children, but since the loss of her eldest son, she has doted on her young sons and daughters a lot.

Seeing that her husband was back at this moment, she hurriedly threaded a few stitches, put the things away, put them in the basket next to her, got up and took the robe that Wen Lingzi took off, and said, "Sister-in-law Wang is here." ”

Wen Yanzi was holding the herbal tea on the table to drink, and Wen Yan was stunned - this Wang is the widow of Zheng Sanyan's brother Zheng Eryan.

Speaking of which, the Zheng brothers and the Wen family have a very close relationship, Wen Yanzi's cousin is the mother of the Zheng brothers, and the two families are cousins. When Wen Yanzi got into trouble, the Zheng family brothers were the first to respond, both of these brothers were very short-tempered, but they just obeyed him - to be honest, Wen Yanzi's force, he was able to sit firmly in the position of the leader, and it had a lot to do with the iron-hearted support of the Zheng family brothers.

Today, he repeatedly scolded Zheng Sanyan for Wei Xinyong, and just then went to Zheng Sanyong's place to talk softly and hard, so as not to make Zheng Sanyan trouble with Wei Xinyong in the future...... I don't want the Wang family to come to the Qiu family......

Wen Yanzi felt a little tricky, and drank most of the bowl of herbal tea before asking in a low voice, "What did Sister-in-law Wang say?" ”

She said that the third brother and the second brother have a deep brotherly relationship, and the second brother was killed by an arrow in order to save the third brother. Sanyan has always felt guilty about this, and after Mr. Biana Wei was rescued by us, he has been lukewarm. Although he has come up with an idea these days, he has also come up with an idea, he is a disciple of the Wei family in Fengzhou, and the Wei family is well-known for its wealth all over the world, and if he misses a little, it is how much real money and silver...... This Mr. Wei lives here with us and asks us to eat and drink well, without saying anything, and he doesn't open his mouth to the family......"

Qiu relayed this, seeing her husband's gloomy face, sighed, and persuaded, "Sister-in-law Wang is also bitter, the second lady will leave a daughter, and if she marries someone in the future, there will be no one under her knees, and if you feel uncomfortable, don't go to your heart." Anyway, they are all relatives. ”

Wen Yanzi shook his head and said abruptly: "People in the countryside have limited knowledge, so it's no wonder that she is not surprised." ”

This was actually said to himself, but the Qiu family naturally wouldn't pick on him, so he walked to the corner of the house and twisted the veil to him: "We women and Taoists don't know about those big things. Hurry up Ming'er, I'll persuade her! ”

After a pause, Qiu Shi also said, "It's just that you are so good to this Mr. Wei, I also wonder - although he is knowledgeable and has a noble status, many of us have risked our lives to protect him...... This ......"

Wei Xinyong was rescued but had an indifferent attitude towards the life-saving benefactor, which Qiu was not as indignant as Wang. Earlier, when she took her children to dig wild vegetables in the field to satisfy her hunger, after rescuing Wei Xinyong in the unconscious grass, the master's attitude in Chishuling was worse than in Qishan Fort.

Qiu's didn't see him much because of the defense of men and women, and they all sent their children to send things. But listening to the children's chatter, this man also knows how ungrateful he is.

However, the Qiu family felt that it was not surprising that a child like Wei Xinyong, who was a child of a big family at first glance, was arrogant and domineering and did not know kindness - just as the Shi clan always felt that the Shu clan in the whole world was inherently inferior to them, and the general perception of the Shu clan towards the Shi clan was not necessarily much better.

At the beginning, Qiu's rescue of Wei Xinyong was just out of her own heart, and she couldn't do anything to see people fall into the wilderness and let them fend for themselves, and she didn't expect him to repay herself. It's Wei Xinyong's attitude, although it's not very good, and she doesn't have any ideas.

And Wang's husband died when he rescued Wei Xinyong and his party this time, and while Wang was grieving, of course, he wanted to see what Mr. Wei was capable of in exchange for his husband's life.

As a result, Wei Xinyong was still lukewarm...... Speaking of which, I really can't complain that the Wang family will come to the Qiu family to mutter.

Wen Lingzi said that Wang's knowledge was limited, but he was harsh, and he was harsh about the death of her husband.

Qiu didn't want to directly say that her husband was harsh to the Wang family, and now he asked in his own name, in fact, he was also asking for the Wang family why Wen Yanzi treated Wei Xinyong so well?

She also knows very well that the Qiu family is a very virtuous person, and as long as he doesn't say anything outside, she never asks. When asked now, it must be that Wang's original words are much more intense than what Qiu just relayed, which makes Qiu feel overwhelmed - he vaguely remembers that this cousin-in-law is notoriously pungent.

sighed in his heart, Wen Yanzi thought about it again and again, and felt that it was better to reveal one or two things to his wife, and others should take their time and even hide it. But Qiu's family, who has been together for decades, must be credible, and he will be busier and busier in the future, and Qiu's family will have to share many things with him, if she doesn't let her have points in her heart, she may make a mistake in the future.

But it's impossible to say it all, it's not that he thinks the Qiu family will sell him, but - it's a big matter, although Wei Xinyong didn't tell him, Wen Yanzi knows that there are some things that can not be let people know, so it's better not to say more.

He took a sip of herbal tea to refresh himself, and said in his heart: "Do you think I'm confused?" Think about it, in order to save Li'er, I led people into Yongxian County to rob the Su family's things, and also killed the son of the Su family, everyone knows this. If we don't save Mr. Wei down, what will we do in the future? ”

Referring to Wen Zhili, the eldest son who died of his injuries not long ago, both the couple felt a pain in their hearts. After a while, Qiu Shi said softly: "These few times the Qingzhou army searched Qishan Fort, didn't they not have any suspicion at all? Our retreat is very well hidden......"

"But what about the future?" Wen Yanzi shook his head, "The Qingzhou Su clan has been a famous family for hundreds of years, and it is famous in the whole country!" Even if we escaped twice, we were able to escape for a while...... Now is a troubled time, I used to study, and I heard my husband say that the general trend of the world will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time. In case the future is too peaceful - the Su family traces down our family's hands again, even if we are gone, what do you say the descendants should do? Hide in the mountains and old forests and never see anyone for a lifetime? ”

Qiu Shi was surprised: "This army is in chaos, after some time, will they still know?" ”

"When I killed the son of the Su family, I only said that he was the junior of the shopkeeper, so I didn't pay attention to it at all, and I only found out later...... I know everything, do you Dao Su family know? Otherwise, why would I take you from Chishuling? Wen Yanzi said hesitantly, "I know that this time I ordered to save Mr. Wei, and many of us died, and Sanyan and Sister-in-law Wang were not happy, thinking that there was no need for this...... But I don't know, which one I saved was Mr. Wei, and it was us who I saved! ”

Qiu Shi was puzzled and said: "But now Mr. Wei has not contacted the Wei family......"

"Even if he can contact me, he won't let him get in touch!" Wen Yanzi heard this, but sneered, and said, "You are really stupid!" Although the person who killed the fourth son of Su was Captain Namo, Captain Namo came to Panzhou to find this Mr. Wei! Coupled with the Zhao Duwei of the Xiliang Army, in the eyes of the Qingzhou Army, these three people are a gang...... Now the Shen family and the Su Jiawei family don't know that they are in this Qishan Fort, and they can still be safe. Once you know, do you think it's the Shen family and the Wei family who came first?

"Even if this is the case, won't the Qingzhou Army rob people on the road and won't do it? As far as we have this little person here, even if they go after Mr. Wei and them, they can just divide some people to stay, so that our chickens and dogs will not stay! Even if the Wei family and the Shen family are thinking about our help, at most - taking care of some of our main people, what will happen to these people in the township at that time?! ”

"Huh?" Qiu is just a country woman in the end, although she is virtuous, her vision is limited, like the Wang family, she also thinks that Wei Xinyong has not been in contact with the Wei family, and she deliberately does not take benefits from the family to repay them. After being stunned for a moment at this moment, Fang Dao said, "This...... This...... Is he going to live in Fort Qishan for the rest of his life? ”

"Of course it can't be, so what's the point of us saving him? But he can't go back until the right opportunity. Wen Yanzi sighed, "You want us to kill the children of the Su family and save Mr. Wei and his party, no matter what, there is nothing to talk about with the Su family, with this kind of people's style, even if I take the initiative to come to the door to ask for guilt, and want them to let you and Qi Erlan'er, it is impossible!" In that case, what else can you do if you don't expect the Wei family? In case Mr. Wei and the others die, the Wei family's favor here is not knotted, but they will have a grudge again......"

Qiu nodded thoughtfully: "This Mr. Wei's background and personality, if you want to show grace, you can really only hold him...... Otherwise, they will offend him. ”

She felt that she understood what her husband meant, "We are a small family, although something is happening now, we can't afford to press down a finger from such a wealthy family." In order to survive, he can only rely on a family similar to that wealthy family. It's just that if you don't protect Mr. Nawei now, you will offend all the two families, and it will be even worse when the time comes......"

"Isn't it?" Wen Yanzi sighed, "Moreover, even if the back road of our Qishan Fort is hidden, it has escaped several searches by the Qingzhou Army. But you have also seen that Mr. Wei stayed at home, and with a few tricks, the situation in the imperial capital was generally not able to leave his palm. You said that such a master, he is here to guide us one or two, shouldn't we serve him well? ”

Qiu Shi thought deeply: "You are right. ”

"You can tell these words to Sister-in-law Wang in private, I can't live with her about Erhan...... But many of us, the villagers, I have no choice, I have to find a way to live. Wen Yanzi rubbed his eyebrows and said tiredly.

Seeing this, Qiu hurriedly agreed to make the bed and let him rest.

But she didn't know what her husband was thinking after lying down: "After Liu Rong left today, the meaning of Mr. Wei's words was revealed...... It seems that it is not the same heart as the Wei family...... And you want to help me? Do I have such good fortune? Or does he just want to recruit me as a subordinate and do things for him in the future? ”

I thought about it again and again, but suddenly came to my senses: "Now that I am here, what do I want to do so much?" Let's get through the next level first! Although he is full of wit, Zheng Sanyan and these people don't have the same heart as him, and they are afraid that he is a weak scholar who will take all of these things away from me? Wei Jia...... How can the Fengzhou Wei family afford to look down on my family background! ”

Thinking about it like this, I was relieved to fall asleep.
