Chapter 40: The Beginning of War on the Frontier

Old man Yun and his second son went to the village chief's house to talk about the matter of offering fields, and just came back at this time to find that there was no one in the yard, and his wife did not come out to greet him, a little curious, and when he walked into the hall, he heard Yunxi say that he supported the eldest brother, and then he understood that the eldest grandson was back, and the old man Yun asked out loud.

"Grandpa, you're back, hello second uncle." When Yunnan heard Old Man Yun's words, he got up to greet Old Man Yun and Yun Bo, and Old Man Yun waved his hand and sat down next to Mrs. Zhao.

Yun Bo replied and sat on the empty chair in the living room, and Old Man Yun curiously asked Mrs. Zhao what was going on.

Mrs. Zhao told me what had just happened, and Old Man Yun and his second son knew what was going on, but Old Man Yun and Mrs. Zhao agreed and encouraged Yunnan a few words.

After Yunnan sat down, he pondered for a while and said to Old Man Yun: "Grandpa, in fact, I came back to work hard by myself, which is related to some rumors in the town recently. ”

"Oh? What's wrong with town? Old man Yun listened to Yunnan's words and asked with some curiosity.

"Recently, there have often been people in Jixiang Town, who are in a hurry, and there is also news that there is a foreign invasion on the frontier, although it is not a large-scale march, but it is a small scale, I am worried that the Liao State of our large surrounding territory will invade our territory."

"If the two countries are at war, our county is the closest to the frontier, and there is a danger of contagion, so my grandson wants to try to do some business and earn some money for the family. Yunnan said with a solemn face a news that shocked everyone.

Old Man Yun's expression changed, and he asked in a cautious tone, "Is this news true?" ”

"Really, besides, my father-in-law has also heard some rumors from his owner, and the news of doing business is widespread, coupled with the appearance of those who are in the army, it is also the news that is somewhat true."

Old man Yun listened to Yun Yi's words and thought for a long time and said: "It is estimated that this Liao Kingdom is also testing our Great Zhou, but you can't take it lightly, Xiao Nan's idea is good, let your milk get you some silver later, and you also need capital to do business." ”

"Master, no, I've saved some money in the restaurant over the years, if it's really not enough, I'll ask my grandma again."

Yunnan hurriedly refused, jokes, he worked in the restaurant for three years, although three taels of silver in the early stage, but then the restaurant owner was heavy, and the salary also rose from three taels to six taels, these years to the family some, there are still a small hundred taels of silver in his hands, first slowly do some business, accumulate experience.

"Okay, if you don't have enough, I'll let your milk give it to you." Old man Yun saw Yunnan's decisive refusal, guessing that the eldest grandson had money in his hands, so he didn't say anything anymore.

"The eldest daughter-in-law, you clean up the room where Yundong sleeps, let Yundong sleep with his third uncle, and let the eldest grandson and granddaughter-in-law sleep in that room." Mrs. Zhao saw that what she said was almost done, so she arranged for Li Wanrou to clean up the room.

"By the way, don't talk about this matter first, this shadowless thing can't be spread randomly, don't make the people in the village panic when the time comes, don't say anything about it, just know about it, if there is a war, the county lord will also inform the village chief, and the village chief is being informed." Old man Yun thought of something, and hurriedly admonished while no one went out.

"Dad, don't worry, we won't talk nonsense." Second Uncle Yun listened to Old Man Yun's words and hurriedly said.

"Yes, even if I say it, I guess no one will believe it." Yun Yi said disapprerovingly.

"If you don't believe it, you can't say it." Old man Yun told his eldest son solemnly.

"Okay, go back to the room, clean up, and wait for the eldest girl and the second girl to come back from cutting pigweed, by the way, the second child, don't mention this to your daughter-in-law." Mrs. Zhao took Old Man Yun's words, said to the people in the house, and specially told Second Uncle Yun.

"Hey, don't worry, I won't talk nonsense." Second Uncle Yun hurriedly replied.

Yunxi was thinking about it when he listened to what his eldest brother said about the frontier war.

Yunxi has been in Dazhou for more than three years, and the villagers of Yunjia Village are all kind and friendly people, at most, they are some parents who are short and trivial, and these villagers in the village are still very good.

Occasionally, Yunxi goes out and meets some kind-hearted aunts, aunts, and aunts who see Yunxi's cute and long white tenderness, and they will give Yunxi snacks for her to eat, and the rations of every household are barely enough for these aunts and aunts, but they will still give Yunxi snacks because of kindness, Yunxi likes the people in this village very much.

Moreover, Yunxi's grandparents, fathers, brothers and sisters all love Yunxi very much, and there is not much danger in life, so that Yunxi gradually forgets the vigilance that danger may appear anytime and anywhere in the last days.

After hearing the idea of war that the eldest brother said, Yunxi's alertness, which was almost lost in this comfortable life, immediately picked it up.

At the same time, his back was also shocked into a cold sweat, and he said with chagrin in his heart: "I have also experienced the end of the world, and I have forgotten my vigilance, although there are no zombies and mutant beasts in this place at any time, but there are also wars, plagues and famines, and now that life is good does not mean that it will be like this in the future, I am actually blinded by this peaceful and comfortable life, it is really ......." ”

Yunxi admonished himself in his heart, and while thinking about how to help his eldest brother do business, Yunxi thought for a while: "After my father and mother fall asleep at night, go to the library to see if there is anything suitable for my eldest brother, let my eldest brother earn money, and only with silver can he live in peace." ”

Although Yunxi is a rich woman, she has used the method of "picking up" the baby to exchange some money for the family, this matter has only passed for a long time, you can't use it a second time, and you can't always have it, this kind of "pie" that falls from the sky to the family, in case you develop the habit of getting something for nothing, it is not what Yunxi wants to see.

Fortunately, although Mrs. Zhao was very happy with the silver sold before, she didn't spend a lot of money, except for her father and grandmother at home, no one else knew how much silver, and it didn't affect it, or as usual, the food at home was changed, so Yunxi was very happy.

But this time it's Brother Yunxi who wants to do business by himself, so Yunxi can't directly give gold and jewelry, not to mention the origin of this thing, how can a child like Yunxi have so many good treasures? Will the family be scared? These are all problems, and Yunxi has to come step by step.

Li Wanrou came out of the hall with Yunxi in her arms, and found that her daughter was in a trance, I don't know what such a young child thinks so much, but Li Wanrou didn't bother Yunxi, the child should give her the ability to think independently, so that when the child grows up, she will also have the ability to take the initiative, Li Wanrou put Yunxi on their kang and went out.

In the other room, Tong helped Li Wanrou clean up the room, this room is similar to the room where Li Wanrou lives, there is a big kang on the side against the wall, Li Wanrou has made a new mattress on the kang, and there are two kang cabinets on the kang where you can put some clothes.

There was a table next to the bed, and on the other wall there was a bookshelf with a lot of books on it.

Some of these books are books copied by Yunbei himself, and every time he goes home, he will bring some back and show them to his younger brothers and sisters, some of them are books bought by Yuntian, and they were given to Yunbei after reading them.

Because there are two people in the family reading, there are still a lot of books, and the children of the Yun family cherish books, so these books are very clean and tidy.

After the things were packed, Tong took out the ready-to-wear clothes that she bought for Li Wanrou and asked Li Wanrou to try the size, because Tong is not a clever person who can only buy ready-to-wear clothes for her mother-in-law, Li Wanrou was very happy after receiving the clothes, she didn't care if the clothes were made by her daughter-in-law, she was very happy with this filial piety.

Yunyi also received the shoes bought by his daughter-in-law, and his happy mouth was grinning behind his ears, so he quickly tried it on his feet, only praising his daughter-in-law that she would buy them, and the size was just right.

Yunxi, who came back to his senses from thinking about things, also received a good-looking little skirt, a pale green dress, the fabric is muslin, the child's skin is delicate, and it is most suitable to wear clothes made of this material.

Let Tong scream like a groundhog in his heart, looking at Yunxi with big apricot eyes, his eyes were full of joy and happiness.

made Yunxi like this sister-in-law more: "This sister-in-law's proper face dog, another one is lost in my prosperous beauty." Yunxi thought narcissistically in his heart.
