Taiping Town, which is built next to the mountains, has a different kind of beauty in the sunset.

The old maid in Mai hurriedly walked into the lobby of the Taiping Society, "Master, Master Zhang has news back." ”

"So fast?"

Wu Qianyuan, who was struggling to write, immediately stopped writing and raised his head.

The old maid in Mai presented the bamboo tube with the thickness of his little thumb to Wu Qianyuan with both hands.

Wu Qianyuan took out the secret letter, twisted it open, and looked at it carefully by the light on the long case with cloud patterns.

"What did Master Zhang say?"

The old maid Mai asked eagerly.

He is the one who knows his master's plan best, and of course he knows what Yan Jinghong's conditions mean to his master.

"The second child accepted the conditions offered by the Yan family and entrusted me with full authority to handle this matter. ”

Wu Qianyuan replied succinctly, but his face was not happy.

The old maid in Mai observed the heaviness between his eyebrows, and couldn't help but wonder: "What's wrong with you? Master Zhang has agreed, why are you still not very happy?"

The white gauze secret letter in Wu Qianyuan's hand was put on the desk, and he pursed his lips, his eyes were a little intense: "On the secret letter, it is not Zhang Laoer's handwriting. ”

Mai's old servant felt a little confused.

Mr. Zhang's family has a big business, and there are many people under him, so it is normal to casually ask someone to ghostwrite, right?

......

At the same time.

Li Youniang led Xiao Jintian and shuttled through the temple fair in the town to make two happy snacks.

Xiao Jintian held Xiao Niang's hand in one hand and a big sugar man in the other, taking a step to lick a mouthful, a step to lick a mouthful, and he was very happy.

Li Youniang also childishly took a string of sugar gourds, took a bite by herself, and handed it to Xiao Jintian to lick it;

As she walked, she scanned the stalls on both sides of the long street to find the next food worthy of her pampering.

The four of them were dressed in civilian clothes, and they happily followed behind their aunts and nephews, not bothering them at all, but having a sense of relief to watch their sisters grow up and their nephews run all over the ground.

Li Youniang, who is a wife with her hair up, counts her age, but she has only just turned eighteen, which is a bright age like summer flowers blooming.

The beauty of a girl and the charm of a woman are the most perfect combination in her body.

Coupled with the hard life of her childhood and the drastic changes outside the Allisky Mansion, the precipitated and fermented strand in her body is indescribable and inexplicable, like a weed......

The firewood girl who stood in front of the stove on a stool to cook has become a slim beauty.

In this era, the fate of the great beauties is usually not very good, and most of them are imprisoned in the deep palace and secluded courtyard like canaries, burning the most beautiful years alone, just to provide a moment of pleasure for the powerful.

Compared with those big beauties, Li Youniang's fate is obviously not ordinarily good.

She has a brother who is gone, but the aftermath still haunts her.

A husband who respects her, loves her, and feels sorry for her.

also has such a big home in Taiping Town for her to show her best age.

lived up to her persistence in the past.

As she walked, Li Youniang suddenly smelled a familiar aroma.

Spicy.

Fresh and fragrant.

Mixed with aromas of chopped green onions and coriander.

Li Youniang took a deep breath intoxicated, and then looked at the rock sugar gourd in her hand, and suddenly felt that it was not sweet and sour.

She casually stuffed the rock sugar gourd into Xiao Jintian's hand, and pulled him to walk quickly in the direction where the fragrance came from.

This business must be theirs.

But she had been at the Moon Lake Lodge a while ago, and she hadn't eaten this bite for a long time.

"Little second brother, come to six bowls of red soup chops, put more coriander and green onions!"

She stood in front of the hot soup stall and shouted familiarly.

The crisp and neat sound, in the steaming heat in the iron pot, also gives people a pleasing feeling like smelling silk bamboo.

The busy men behind the iron pot and the diners in the stall all raised their heads and glanced at her.

Most people recognized her at a glance.

No one came up to greet her warmly.

But the guy who was doing chores behind the iron pot silently collected six from the neatly arranged bowls on the desk, and then took them to clean them vigorously in clean water before putting them back on the desk.

The man in charge of the spoon untied the lid of the pot, waved the spoon in the warm pot and scooped up the red chops, one bowl and one spoonful, full of them, and then scooped up a spoonful of radish from the clear soup pot on the side, and put two pieces on the symbolic bowl......

There is a difference between men and women, and they can't express their closeness to Li Youniang.

But respect is a way to show it.

Li Youniang did not express any gratitude for their special care.

They are friends, brothers, and family.

Friends, brothers, and family members don't need to thank each other for a little thing.

Moreover, it is her family's business......

She stared intently at the bowls of red and bright chop soup, and couldn't stop swallowing.

Some foods are like this, and you don't think about it when you can't see it, but when you see it, you won't be able to resist it......

The chop soup obviously has a very special meaning for Li Youniang.

"How can such rough food get into the mouth of a little lady. ”

Just as she was waiting to eat the chop soup, a rough voice sounded on the side that was not a local.

A young boy wearing a dark blue and silver wave-patterned cardigan, with a gold ribbon tied around his waist, exuding a fat powder smell all over his body, turned out of which corner he didn't know from, and approached Li Youniang with a faint smile on his face.

What he didn't notice was that as soon as his words came out, standing behind the big iron pot with a kitchen knife to cut the radish pieces, the hands at hand slammed into a beating, and the diners in the stall also raised their heads and looked at him with strange expressions.

There are more playboy brothers with a mouthful of flowers.

As long as you don't really get started, it's not a heinous sin.

The sturdy old ladies flirted with weak scholars on the street, and it was not uncommon for people to be fierce in a place like Xuanbei Prefecture.

With the skin of this son-in-law, if he molests other big girls and little daughters-in-law, maybe people will be angry on their faces, and they may not know how beautiful they are in their hearts......

But how did you find this one so well?

Li Youniang twisted her delicate brows, and pulled her backhand with a big mouth.

"Smack. ”

A loud mouth rang out in front of the chop soup stall.

The diners in the stalls finally couldn't help but make a noise.

"Li Xiaoniang is so good!"

"Blind your dog eyes, dare to spend flowers on Li Xiaoniang's head, don't get out of here!"

"Get out, if I don't roll again, I'll kill you!"

Some people praised Li Youniang's straightforward temperament.

Someone loudly intimidated and scolded this foreigner.

Of course, intimidation and scolding are not necessarily completely malicious.

For example, now, from the perspective of the diners, it is clear that four big men with gloomy faces and pedestrians who have always come and gone have come out and surrounded this young man.

If he gets out of the way immediately, maybe this matter will pass.

In fact, Li Youniang's clean and neat beating of people is not without this consideration.

She made a move, and this blind thing recognized it again, and after being beaten violently, the matter was over.

If the four brothers not far behind her came up and did it, he would not have left any important parts today, and if the hands of the four brothers behind him were darker, he would probably never see the sun rise again.

For such a trivial matter, it is not worth losing your life or losing your arms and thighs.

Li Youniang really thinks so.

But unfortunately, good intentions are not necessarily rewarded.

"Smack. ”

Another loud slap sounded, like a scoop of ice water mixed into a boiling iron pot, and the boiling miscellaneous soup spies suddenly fell silent.

Li Youniang took a few steps back, covering her hot face, and was a little stunned.

was also slapped by her and made him look confused, until many diners shouted intimidation and scolding, and the young boy brother who came back to his senses roared with a red face: ", you dare to beat me?"

The hysterical roar, in an instant, stunned everyone present and pulled back to reality.

Behind the iron pot, the cutting pier carrying a kitchen knife to cut radish pieces was closest to the young boy, and he picked up the kitchen knife and flew over.

At the same time, the four Red Flower Hall armor soldiers pulled out a short knife from their waists and pounced on them viciously.

The next moment, all the diners in the stall pulled out a stool from under their butts and gathered around.

Li Youniang came back to her senses and hurriedly protected Xiao Jintian and retreated.

She didn't say anything.

Because she knew that this man was dead.

Although she felt that she slapped him and slapped herself, it should actually be considered a tie......

But it doesn't matter anymore.

He's dead.

Her face, not just her face.

Or her man's face.

slapped her man's face in Taiping Town, if she can get out alive, then the old men in this town should wipe their necks......

"Bang. ”

A figure spat blood and flew upside down from the crowd.

In the chaos, Li Youniang heard someone shouting, "Pierce your hands, wave the flag!"

After a few breaths, a dazzling red light rose into the sky, exploded in the gloomy sky before nightfall, and formed a brilliant red flower.

The whole Taiping Town saw how brilliant the red flowers were.

......

"Whoosh. ”

"Smack. ”

Wu Qianyuan, who had just picked up his rice bowl, heard the screaming sound outside the window, and whispered "Huh?" in confusion.

The old servant in Mai, who was standing behind him and waiting for his meal, understood and walked out of the house quickly, and before he could call anyone to inquire, he saw the brilliant red flower blooming in the sky.

He was taken aback, quickly turned around and ran into the house quickly, and said urgently: "Master, something happened, it's a red flower and an arrow." ”

When Wu Qianyuan heard this, he hurriedly walked out of the rice bowl.

The red flowers in the sky have withered.

But it can't save Wu Qianyuan's heart that sinks all the way.

Something happened!

Ken has an accident!

The red flowers and arrows all appeared in Taiping Town, isn't there a big incident, what else can it be?

"Send someone to check ......"

Halfway through the words, Wu Qianyuan swallowed back and changed his words: "Forget it, recruit the wind catcher, let's take a look together!"

"Yes. ”

The old man in Mai trotted away.

......

"Whoosh. ”

"Bang. ”

"Smack. ”

A big-footed girl kicked open a mahogany carving, and Sun Si'er, who was covered in water, ran out of the bath barefoot, looked up at the red flower blooming in the sky, and was furious: "Which fool picked the flag at this time...... Hey, that's not right!"

He's the master of the Red Flower Hall, huh?

The Red Flower Ringing Arrow can only be placed by the Red Flower Hall Master and the Gang Leader.

The helper is out and not in Taiping Town.

He, the master of the Red Flower Hall, was taking a medicinal bath.

Then who put this safflower arrow?

He tried to think about it for a while, and suddenly remembered that there was a Honghuatang garrison near Zhang's mansion, and the command and dispatch of that team was in the hands of Da Liu, but the establishment was still in Honghuatang, and they were also qualified to release saffron arrows in a hurry.

Zhang, Zhang's house?

Sun Si'er shuddered suddenly, pulled his throat and roared: "Put three red flower arrows!"

Before he could finish speaking, he had already rushed into the main hall.

After a few conversations, he rushed out with a large knife with a door panel as high as a man's chest.

At the right time, three saffron arrows shot up into the sky in no particular order.

......

At the town gate.

Jiao Shan stood at the head of the city, looked up at the red flowers blooming in the sky, slapped the arrow stack and said loudly: "All the soldiers, wear armor and hold shields, start with knives and guns, and wind up the arrows and crossbows, from now on, no one is allowed to leave the town without the permission of the general, but there is no forgiveness for those who rush the door or **!"

"Whoa!"

A low, majestic voice came from the darkness.
