"So fast?!"

Rao is Fang Rui had been mentally prepared, but when he suddenly heard the news, he was still shocked.

'Leading a group of rabble, but being able to achieve such a marching speed, that bandit leader Li Xuantong is a capable man! He said to himself.

"I can't believe it, but it's true...... As soon as I received the news, I came over to tell Brother Fang...... The county government urgently convened and asked our officials to go out on patrol and suppress the law, and the wording was extremely harsh......"

Jiang Ping'an smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I thought that there would be a few days of buffer, but I didn't want to ......."

Obviously, the county is in a hurry! If the city is broken by the Taiping thieves, his official hat will definitely be gone, and even his life will be guaranteed, and he will have to take his family......

In such a situation, naturally he couldn't take care of anything, and he severely increased the weight of the people below.

If Jiang Ping'an doesn't delay any longer, the loss of his official skin will be light, and if it is more serious, he may be set up as a target and set an example for chickens and monkeys.

- Yes! On the government side, the high-level combat strength has suffered serious losses, but it is not difficult to liquidate a few head-catching officials with a thin camel that is bigger than a horse.

"I've already explained here, the person in charge of military service, even if he pulls Zhuangding, will not look for the brothers above......"

When Jiang Ping'an said this, he paused, and as if he was explaining the aftermath, he earnestly entrusted: "If I have a ...... If you confessed last night, Brother Fang, don't forget! ”

With that, he turned and hurried away.

Fang Rui looked at Jiang Ping'an's back under the sun, was stunned, and immediately shook his head: "It seems that I didn't get drunk last night, it's not just me ......"

"Really...... In this world, whether it is a person or a ghost, they are all acting! ”

Although it was early in the morning, the sun had risen, and the sun covered the earth, and everywhere was bright, but in such a big day, the breeze brought scolding and crying from time to time, and it was endless.

Fang Rui sighed and turned around: "It's messy!" The way of the world...... It's a complete mess! ”

……

Turning back to the house, Fang Rui suppressed some irritability in his heart, his face regained his composure, and Zhizhu was in his hand, as if everything was under control.

As the backbone of the family, no matter what the situation, he can't mess up.

“…… That's it, this morning, the Taiping thieves have besieged the city. Fang Rui didn't hide it, and told the news he got from Jiang Ping'an.

"So fast?!"

"How's that okay?"

Fang Xue and San Niangzi were all a little flustered.

Yes, Sanniangzi is no exception - it is true that she is a 'strong woman', but in the event of such a big event, she will still break her defenses...... Maybe it was because he followed Fang Rui and relied on him, and his temperament was unconsciously weaker.

Of course, the panic was only for a short time, and when they saw the calm Fang Rui, they quickly calmed down again.

"Brother Rui, this ...... You've said it before, but are you really okay? Fang Xue asked.

The third lady also looked at it worriedly.

"It's fine."

Fang Rui thought about it for a while, and felt that he should give the two of them a reassurance, so he dissected the matter and said, "Our family has prepared very well. There is money, there is no shortage of food, and there is ...... of force"

Is there more than that?

His real strength is the sixth grade, the real middle and third grade, and the existence of one foot into the top of Changshan County.

That's confidence.

"Take 10,000 steps back, even if the Taiping thieves break into the city, when the city is in the most chaotic situation, those strongmen who want to take advantage of the fire and rob will not lose their minds and go crazy, staring at ordinary people like us...... With that kung fu, isn't it fragrant to rob pawnshops, money banks, and big households? ”

"At most, they are some rebels, ruffians and hooligans...... But these people ......"

Fang Rui shook his head: "Native chickens and dogs, you can break your ears with a snap of your fingers!" ”

He is telling the truth.

It can be said: as long as you are honest and don't jump too much, even if you are just a martial artist, there is a great possibility to hide in the most chaotic period after the city is broken.

Not to mention Fang Rui, with his strength, it is good not to bully others, and it is more than enough to shelter an ordinary family like his own.

Seeing Fang Rui's confident appearance, Fang Xue's heart settled down, and so did the three ladies, their eyes full of admiration and admiration.

Fang Rui took it apart like this, analyzed it, and they found that it was really the truth: even if the county seat was broken, the worst case scenario seemed to have no impact, so what were they worried about?

Therefore, I didn't panic at all, and even, I had the leisure to sit down and continue to do needlework.

When Fang Rui saw this scene, his eyes softened: "Sure enough, no matter in the peaceful season or in troubled times, strength is always supreme...... With strength, you are not afraid of ...... anywhere'

"Mother, third sister, I'll call that friend's family over and get to know you, right?"

This side is not far from Jiang Ping'an's house, and it is only a few steps away, in fact, Fang Rui is staring at this side, and he is not afraid of any problems.

can call Sister-in-law Jiang, talk to Fang Xue and Sanniangzi, and get to know each other, which can also make them divert their attention and worry less about some outside things.

"Okay."

Fang Xue's and the third lady agreed.

……

Out.

Fang Rui went to Jiang Ping'an's house.

I didn't take two steps, but I saw a street slicker with a bit of ruffianism on his body, but he was wearing a soap coat, with a big 'bad' word on his chest, swaggering, like a rampant crab, followed by a follower.

It was obvious that Fang Rui, his commanding appearance instantly converged, a big smile appeared on his face, and he bowed his head and waist, very polite.

"This ...... It's Fang Rui, right?! Jiang Yajun and I specifically mentioned your ...... Oh! ”

As he spoke, he patted his head: "The villain's surname is Yan, and the single name is a pine character, you can call me Xiao Yan." ”

In fact, Jiang Ping'an has confessed, but on one side, more importantly: Jiang Ping'an has mentioned intentionally or unintentionally that Fang Rui is at least a martial artist.

Originally, even so, Yan Song should not be allowed to lower his profile like this.

Can......

Last night, he moved a little slower, and he didn't have time to act, but he might as well know: There are a few ruffians and hooligans with fox friends and dogs, and they suddenly became bad masters, once they gained power, they couldn't figure out their identities, and then they ...... and was killed.

- Obviously, Liu is not alone.

This sounded the alarm for Yan Song.

Therefore, even if he doesn't have that brain, he will learn from the past, and he will be taught to understand current affairs and recognize the situation.

Reach out and don't hit the smiley person.

Although Fang Rui didn't know why this Yan Song was so polite, he wouldn't put on a face, let alone call him 'Xiao Yan' without emotional intelligence.

"It's me...... Brother Yan is busy when he has something to do, I'll go to Jiang Ya's house to visit the door, and I won't delay your errands......" He didn't think about how deep his friendship was with this person, so he said a few words casually, and then said goodbye and left.

Behind him, there is a faint voice.

"Master Yan, even if he has a relationship with Jiang Ya, but looking at the current situation, it is difficult for him to protect himself, maybe he will be gone one day...... Is it necessary for us to be so polite to a person who relies on his connections? ”

"Phew! You kid knows a?! I've heard that people are at least martial artists...... No matter how the way of the world changes, there is one thing that will not change, that is: the fist is the big ......"

……

Fang Rui came to Jiang Ping'an's house, and as soon as he said what he wanted, Sister-in-law Jiang readily agreed, and took the two little ones to go out together.

two small dots, a male baby, seven or eight years old, named Niu Dun; There is also a female baby, but five or six years old, about the same age as Fang Ling and Nannan, called Xiaodou Sprouts.

- In this era, most of the names are like this, unpretentious, and some have the meaning of taking cheap names to make a living.

Locking the door, Fang Rui led the three of Jiang's sisters-in-law over.

When I came to the gate of the courtyard, I suddenly heard the sound of crying and pleading in the courtyard on the left, which sounded a little familiar.

"Aunt Zhao?!"

Fang Rui's eyes flashed, and he had some guesses in his heart: "Sister-in-law Jiang, you go in first, I'll go over there and have a look." ”

"Xiao Fang, do you know Aunt Zhao? I'll go with me, and I'll be able to say something if I have something. Sister-in-law Jiang said.

"Okay."

Fang Rui and Sister-in-law Jiang came to the courtyard next to them and entered the door.

See:

Aunt Zhao, who had gray hair, was rickety, knelt on the ground, pulled Yan Song's arm and begged: "Poor master, my family really has no money, can you slow down?" I owe it, I sign and draw ......"

Next to them, there are two girls, one is eight or nine years old, and the other is twelve or thirteen years old, with yellow faces and thin muscles, looking timid, holding hands and curling together, like two quails.

"No money? Don't you have two daughters? You can take people to ......"

"Brother Yan,"

Fang Rui sighed lightly and said, "I know Aunt Zhao...... How much, I'll do it for them! ”

After all, he is not hard-hearted, and he is still willing to take action and pull a hand when he can do his best to the acquaintance of the third lady.

The attendant was about to speak.

Yan Song pulled the other party, a smile appeared on his face, and he took the first step to speak: "Hey, Master Fang, look at what you said?" How can I collect your money? ”

"That's it. Come, Aunt Zhao, hurry up,"

He squatted down, helped Aunt Zhao up with both hands, and patted the dust on the other party's body kindly: "Hey, you have a relationship with Fang Ye, why didn't you say it earlier?" Otherwise, it wouldn't have been like this...... The flood washed away the Dragon King Temple, didn't it? ”

This face-changing effort is really ...... Terrible!

The peak turned around, and the matter was solved so easily, and Aunt Zhao was stunned.

It's the sister-in-law Jiang next to her, and they all look cheeky...... However, in my heart, there is an inexplicable refreshment.

"Okay, I can't make it difficult for you, use the money for tea." Fang Rui took out a handful of large coins and stuffed them.

He is a person with clear grievances, and he doesn't want to owe favors for this little thing.

"Hey, you are really exquisite, thank you for the reward...... So, you're busy, I'll go first? ”

Yan Song said, leading his followers, skipping the courtyard where Fang Rui lived, without asking, and went straight to the next house.

"Aunt Zhao, it's over, it's okay......" Sister-in-law Jiang took Aunt Zhao's hand and comforted.

"It's over, it's over?!"

Aunt Zhao was still a little dizzy until this moment, but at least she came back to her senses, and hurriedly pulled her two daughters and came over to kowtow to Fang Rui: "Quick!" Come and thank your benefactor! ”

A bit of gratitude, needless to say.

After a few words of gossip, Fang Rui said goodbye to Aunt Zhao, led the three of Jiang's sisters-in-law out, and when they returned to their own yard, the courtyard on the right hand side also sounded scolding and sobbing - if you distinguish carefully, you can still hear Yan Song's voice.

"Over there, it's Sun Laohan's house...... His family is also suffering from a hard life, the eldest son was conscripted, and in the first wave of thieves, his life and death are unknown...... Now, these two sons are probably going to be pulled into ...... strong."

Sister-in-law Jiang sighed.

"It's all poor people......"

Fang Rui sighed, but he only sighed, and immediately, he led the three of Jiang's sister-in-law into the house and crossed the door.

I didn't go to see the excitement - he is not the kind of person who can watch the beheading, and can still applaud and dip the steamed buns that eat human blood.

didn't meddle with anything - Sun Laohan's family was not related to him, and he didn't have any friendship.

It's still the same sentence: He is not the Virgin, there are many poor people in this world, sheltering his family; Neighbors and friends who have friendships can also help those who can help; Other strangers, but they can't control it......

……

led the three sisters-in-law Jiang and just entered the courtyard gate.

Fang Xue's and the third lady came out: "Brother Rui, are you back?" ”

Before, they also heard the movement of Aunt Zhao's house next door, but Fang Rui was not there, and they didn't dare to rush over, for fear that they wouldn't help, so they also took themselves in.

Fang Rui talked about Aunt Zhao's family, and introduced the three sisters-in-law Jiang to them.

The three of them talked, and soon, they chatted together.

Between women, especially: in the case of mutual friendship, the establishment of a relationship is always quick.

Niu Dun and Xiao Dou Sprouts were led to the back room to play with Fang Ling and Nannan.

Originally, Niu Dun was older and led his sister over with the idea of challenging Fang Ling's position as the 'child king', but Fang Ling and Nannan, the two little girls, told the brothers and sisters the story that Fang Rui had told them, and scared the two 'ignorant' little guys into a daze......

……

Under the big sun.

The golden sunlight spread over the entire courtyard, casting circles of flickering light and shadow, jumping between the grass and trees.

In the backyard house, Fang Xue's family, Sanniangzi, and Jiang's sister-in-law were doing needlework and gossiping; In the back room, Fang Ling, Nannan, Niu Dun, and Xiao Bean Sprouts, a few children were playing.

Fang Rui sat in the front yard hall, guarding the door while flipping through the medical books, from time to time, when he heard a voice approaching outside, he raised his head and listened, and then lowered his head after making sure that the sound was far away.

Quiet and leisurely, the years are quiet.

Outside.

The news of the siege of the city by the Taiping thieves soon spread, and the chaos in the city intensified, and the Taiping thieves caused chaos everywhere, causing panic, and the ruffians and hooligans also followed.

Under the blue sky and white sun, countless evils are breeding.

Crying, scolding, smashing and robbing...... Some, even listening, are not far away......

Also: in the direction of the city gate, there is a faint shout of killing from time to time......

Intertwined.

Such a voice came into the courtyard where Fang Rui was, but it did not cause panic, but was gradually used to by everyone, and it seemed to be ...... Reduced to a kind of background music.

Cause?

Children may be naïve and ignorant......

Fang Xue's and the three ladies are all because: Fang Rui is guarding in the front yard - he has always been calm, and he does what he says, this impression has brought the two of them a great sense of security.

Sister-in-law Jiang, on the other hand, was purely infected by this relaxed and brisk atmosphere.

……

In the middle of the morning.

In this courtyard, there were two thieves who tried to break into the door, Fang Rui went out directly, interrupted the hands and feet of the comer, and threw them on the road outside the door and snorted.

Under such a shock, no ruffians and hooligans dared to come here to brush the tiger's whiskers, and even Aunt Zhao and several other nearby families were stained with light, so they came down safely.

……

Time passed in a hurry.

……
