063 Qi Ming
"This, this"
Zhou, who was sitting on the side, looked at Mrs. Qi at a loss, either she said that Niu Ju was not good, or Zhou felt that Qi Zhang of her family married Niu Ju, which was still a little bit meaningless.
The Qi family is used to seeing Sheng Jiaojiao like this in the world, and Niu Ju can't help but look down on it.
Moreover, the Qi family's ideas are big, and the marriage is a major event, starting from the old lady Qi, who has made his own ideas.
Old Lady Qi also felt a little abrupt, she paused, and said with a forced smile:
"My eldest man naturally looks at Niu Ju well, but this child's mind is big, what is the idea in his heart, we don't know, if you don't look back, I ask what Dalang means?"
"Okay."
Xiong Lin smiled on his face, and asked a few more words about how Qi Dalang was doing in the army, and as he spoke, he somehow talked about Tan Ji's head.
In fact, Sheng Jiaojiao has been standing under the eaves of the corner of the hall, and she has not left yet.
Hearing that Xiong Lin was secretly inquiring about Tan Ji's development, Sheng Jiaojiao was reluctant to listen to it anymore.
Niu Ju is a good girl, whether she is married to Qi Zhang, or Tan Ji, she will teach her husband and children, and take good care of the whole family with hard work.
The sons and daughters of Zhishou County need a simple, honest, not much-minded, and long-looking lady with a thin waist and a big buttocks.
So in Niu Ju's family, there have been several groups of matchmakers to propose marriage.
But Niu Ju is a person, who she marries or not, can't she choose herself?
I have to ask Xiong Lin about this, ask about that
Sheng Jiaojiao turned around and was about to leave.
Suddenly, Xiong Lin couldn't hide her complacency, and said to Zhou and Mrs. Qi:
"Yesterday, Mrs. Tan also sent two pieces of bacon to our house, and she was asking about our Niu Ju, I was thinking, Mrs. Tan was afraid that she was going to kiss Tan Dalang."
Tan Ji is going to marry Niu Ju?
Sheng Jiaojiao under the eaves looked stunned, she remembered that day outside the Tan family, she heard Mrs. Tan ask Tan Ji what she thought of Niu Ju.
However, Tan Ji also refused at that time.
Not only did he not want to marry Sheng Jiaojiao, but he also didn't want to marry Niu Ju.
I didn't expect this to be kissed.
Sheng Jiaojiao went back to her room, looked at the black fabric in her hand and was stunned, thought about it, shook off the material, and drew two uppers.
After a while, the eldest girl Qi entered the house with a box of needles and threads, and said:
"Jiaojiao'er, you said you were going to make two pairs of shoes, I brought you the needlework, will you do it?"
"Not really."
Sheng Jiaojiao told the truth, she took out a pen and paper, drew a simple shoe pattern, and showed it to Miss Qi.
"So I'm going to make a pair and only make it for my big brother."
She was a queen in her previous life, except for currying favor with the emperor and making one or two seasons of clothes for Yin Ze every year, she never touched the needlework.
Of course, the clothes for the one or two seasons she made were all made by sewing two stitches by herself, and the rest were all made by the palace people under her hands
She originally asked A-Niang for a piece of black material, and wanted to make a pair of shoes for Qi Zhang and Tan Ji.
It is also to thank Tan Ji for giving Qi Huan Ao Dog.
But Tan Ji is going to kiss Niu Ju now, and it is not very suitable for her to make shoes for Tan Ji again.
What should I do if Niu Ju misunderstands in the future?
So Sheng Jiaojiao temporarily changed her mind and only made shoes for Qi Zhang.
That's fine, she doesn't know how to make shoes anyway, so she doesn't have to be tired.
Miss Qi stretched out her fingertips angrily, poked Sheng Jiaojiao's head, and reprimanded half-truthfully:
"You just want to make one out of one, or I'll do it, don't you finish one, and don't do the other one, or I have to do it, the two stitches are different."
After speaking, Miss Qi took away the black fabric, needlework and thread in front of Sheng Jiaojiao, as well as the shoe patterns she had drawn.
Sheng Jiaojiao pouted, turned around, picked up a book from the kang and continued to read.
On the second day, early in the morning, Niu Ju led her father's old horse, carried two big baskets, and waited outside the door of Qi's house before dawn.
Qi Hua has finished practicing the sword, picking apples, cutting side vegetables, and picking medicinal herbs.
He is now doing these things more and more rationally, and he does not ask anyone in the family to help.
The weather seemed to be getting cold, the Qi family was busy working in the fields, selling apples everywhere, patrolling the militia, and the old lady Qi and the eldest girl Qi were busy making winter clothes, and no one had the time to help Qi Huan.
Everyone has their own things to do, and the Qi family didn't stay at home because Qi Zhang came back with the silver, Sheng Jiaojiao's business improved again.
Seeing Qi Hua dragging a cart from behind Qi's house, he was about to go into the front yard to lead the mule.
Niu Ju stepped forward and helped Qi Huan push a cart together.
Seeing Sheng Jiaojiao walking out with a stack of books, Niu Ju asked:
"Jiaojiao, what are you going to do with the book?"
"Me"
Sheng Jiaojiao originally wanted to say that she would give it to Tan Ji, but after thinking about it, she still didn't tell Niu Ju, lest Niu Ju misunderstand.
It was a change of conversation and explained:
"Let the four guys bring it to my big brother."
"Isn't Brother Zhang coming back today?"
Niu Ju blinked her dark and bright eyes and looked at Sheng Jiaojiao innocently.
Qi Hua, who had already led the mule out next to him, looked at Niu Ju strangely,
"How do you know my big brother is back today?"
"I remember he's taking a break at this time of the month."
Niu Ju's face turned a little red, her expression became uncomfortable, and in order to cover it up, she hurriedly said:
"Hurry up and load apples, I'm afraid there are a lot of people in today's set, and apples must sell well."
Sheng Jiaojiao turned around, lifted the black cloth on the cart, put the stack of books in the vegetable basket, and calculated the time in her mind, it seems that it is indeed true, Qi Zhang will go home from the barracks on this day every month.
It's just that she and Qi Ju didn't think of it, and no one in the Qi family remembered it, but Niu Ju remembered it clearly.
Qi Ju turned around and went to the backyard again, carried a basket in one hand, lifted two baskets of apples from the vegetable patch in the backyard, and unloaded the empty basket on the old horse for Niu Ju, and tied the basket full of apples to both sides of the old horse again.
Sheng Jiaojiao took a deep look at Niu Ju, and didn't say anything, but only told Niu Ju and Qi Huan, let the two of them go early and return early, and then saw the two go out.
From the beginning to the end, she didn't mention the stack of books in the basket.
Qi Wei knew who her stack of books was going to give to, and she wouldn't give it to the wrong one.
Not long after the two left, Qi Zhang rode back.
came back with him, as well as Qi Ming, the second lang of the Qi family!
As soon as Da Lang entered the courtyard, he deliberately shouted in a loud voice:
"I heard that the family sheared sheep? Why don't you wait for me to come back and help? ”
With that, he took Erlang into the hall.
Miss Qi and Mrs. Qi were doing needlework in the old lady's room, and when they heard this voice, Mrs. Qi went out with a smile, walked to the hall, and said to Qi Zhang, who was holding an apple and gnawing on it:
"When you come back, you still don't know what about the Year of the Monkey? Hurry up and measure."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Qi Erlang who was following Qi Zhang.
Old Lady Qi said "ouch" in her mouth and shouted:
"Come out quickly, there's a rare guest in our house, it's amazing."
There was a clanging sound in the room, and the eldest girl Qi and Sheng Jiaojiao rushed into the hall together, and when Sheng Jiaojiao saw Qi Erlang who was smiling and groaning, she said "wow" and cried.
While running, the eldest girl copied the soles of her shoes, and was about to hit Qi Erlang, her heart hurt, and she said in her mouth:
"You haven't been back for a few years? Now that the subject country is going to fight, what are you doing when you come back to this chaos? ”
The old lady Qi on the side was angry and laughing, and said to Qi Zhang:
"Hurry up, ride a horse to pick up the second lady, and, go to the militia and bring my second son back, my God, we are a complete family."
It's back, it's back.
Qi Erlang, who had been away from home for three or four years and was thin and short when he left, was now taller, stronger, and darker, carrying large bags and small bags, leading three mules, and returning full of things.
He smiled loudly, showed a mouthful of white teeth, touched Sheng Jiaojiao's head with calloused hands, saw that she was crying silently, and said:
"The third sister still loves to cry so much, let my brother see it, she has grown up."
looked at the old lady Qi again, knelt down on both knees, and kowtowed loudly to the old lady,
"Grandma, the unfilial grandson Erlang is back, Erlang can't be regarded as a glorious return to his hometown, and he returns to his hometown, Erlang just came back to fight the countrymen, protect the family and defend the country, defend the territory, live up to the trust of the ancestors, and protect Zhishou County to the death, so that Grandma is disappointed, and the family is disappointed."
"Where was the disappointment? It's good to come back, you ruthless auntie, why did I send you out."
Old Mrs. Qi cried, hugged Qi Ming, who was kneeling on the ground, and cried with a whimper.
Back then, she didn't agree with Qi Erlang to be the apprentice of the merchant.
But Qi Erniang said that Erlang has a talent for business, he has a lively brain since he was a child, and he can speak well with one mouth, and the eldest man in the family went to join the army, in case the four guys are young, Sheng Jiaojiao is a girl again, and she has been growing up in a honey pot.
The Qi family must at least have someone who can support this big family.
Therefore, despite the opposition of her family, Qi Erniang gave Qi Erlang to a familiar merchant, and took Tiannan Haibei to sell goods in the streets and alleys.
For this reason, Mrs. Qi was so angry that she didn't talk to the second lady of Qi for a year, and she didn't even want to see the second son.
After crying for a while, Qi Ming still stood up, helped Mrs. Qi to sit down, turned around and took the big bag he brought back from him, and took gifts to Mrs. Qi, Miss Qi and Sheng Jiaojiao.
There are also three ladies, three uncles, and two brothers, all of whom brought gifts, and he was extremely thoughtful.
The gift to Mrs. Qi was a forehead embroidered with silk threads and pearls, a silk shawl for Miss Qi, and a pair of four treasures of the study for Sheng Jiaojiao.
Looking at this pair of four treasures of the study, Sheng Jiaojiao couldn't help but have red eyes
After the massacre in the previous life, the killer burned the loess village with a fire, and Tan Ji took her and Yin Ze to break out of the killer's encirclement and ran all the way to the direction of the military camp.
The killer chased him all the way and was killed by Zheng Ling and Tan Xiaojian, who received the news and led the troops to the rescue.
Later, Sheng Jiaojiao fell ill in Tan Ji's military camp, and the abolished prince did not dare to easily step out of the heavily guarded Jumping Horse Lake, and was eager to return to the imperial capital to return to the old emperor.
Yin Ze thought of a way, ordered his wife to pack up her things, and led a team of old slaves from the prince's mansion on the road, attracting the attention of those thieves in the shadows who didn't want the abolished prince to return to the imperial capital.
He also asked the deposed prince and the crown princess to disguise themselves as ordinary fleeing couples and go to the imperial capital with the refugees.
In the end, Yin Ze's wife died on the way to the imperial capital, and the deposed prince and his wife successfully arrived at the imperial capital and met the old emperor.
Sheng Jiaojiao still remembers that night, the charcoal fire burned red in the tent.
Yin Ze stood outside the tent, and it snowed like goose feathers in Zhishou County, and he lost his temper at Tan Ji's military doctor power shed,
"The high fever has not gone away, you said you did your best, so why did she keep having a fever?"
In the goose feather snow, the right shed knelt in the snow, knocked his head on the ground, and said nothing.
He is also a native of Loess Village, where he was slaughtered, his home, his relatives, everything he had was gone.
No one knows how bitter Quan Peng is in his heart, it's not that he doesn't want Sheng Jiaojiao to have a fever, but his ability is only so great, and his medical skills are only so good.
He was angry at Yin Ze's criticism, and if he had a choice, Quan Peng also wanted to go with Loess Village.
Now that you are alone in this world, what kind of home do you have? Gone is home.
What country? Whose kingdom is it defending?
So Quan Peng deeply understands Sheng Jiaojiao's pain, and she doesn't want to be good.
She didn't want to do it herself.
Quan Peng didn't want to live anymore.
In the tent, Sheng Jiaojiao listened to Yin Ze's tantrum in a daze, and heard someone report that Yin Ze's wife was ambushed when she passed by the post station, and finally she was spared with a group of old slaves in the prince's mansion.
Sheng Jiaojiao, who was lying in the tent, slowly fell a tear from the corner of her eye.
Her cheeks burned red, and for the first time she realized that she had done something wrong.
In order to let the abolished prince return to the imperial capital, Yin Ze sacrificed his first wife like this, and the woman who was so arrogant and domineering now ended up on a par with Sheng Jiaojiao.
Isn't it terrible to be a man like this, a man like this?
Isn't it a mistake to marry such a man?
In the warm tent, a black shadow fell on her body, she slowly opened it, her black hair was scattered, her expression was broken, and her head was drowsy looking at Tan Ji who was standing in front of her couch at some point.
His sword eyebrows were deeply locked, and a pair of eyes looked at the weak and helpless Sheng Jiaojiao, opened his mouth, and finally silently took out a blackened wooden box.
"This box"
Sheng Jiaojiao was excited when she saw this box, and she struggled to sit up.
Tan Ji knelt down on one knee in front of her couch and sent the wooden box forward.
In the dimly lit tent, she stretched out her weak fingers and opened the wooden box that Tan Ji was holding in both hands, which was the four treasures of the study that Qi Ming gave her when she returned home a few days ago.
"Brother~~"
Looking at the four treasures of the study that were intact inside, Sheng Jiaojiao's tears fell down one by one, her lips were pale, she looked at Tan Ji, and asked:
"Where did you find it?"
Isn't anyone watching? Alas, I'm cold.
