Marrying a wife and having children seems to be the main theme of life forever.

Regardless of whether it was prosperous or not in that era, everyone regarded marriage as one of the most important things in their lives, and was willing to devote their lives to it.

When I was young, I always felt that fighting the sword world was the most perfect life, and even disdained to put myself in the days of petty love for firewood, rice, oil and salt.

But once you like someone, that idea will disappear in an instant.

The sword was sold, and the horse was slaughtered, just to be able to spend the rest of his life with her.

But what was her intention? She's married......"

Twenty-three-year-old Di Qing tasted the bitter taste of inferiority complex for the first time.

He wandered slowly through the streets.

"Boom!"

The thunder grew intensifying.

Di Qing unconsciously walked to Sweetwater Lane, stopped at the corner in front of the street and looked around.

"It's raining!"

Probably because the business was good, Bai Juan was not in a hurry to hide from the rain, but hugged the money bag in her arms, and her steps hurriedly seemed to be preparing to go home.

"Get a bundle of red cord for so-and-so."

Bai Juan ran a few steps and saw Di Qing in the rain, so she smiled and said, "Huh? It's you again...... Thank you last time, Qin Langjun bought me a lot of needles and threads when he got married, and he also rewarded me with ten dollars, and this bundle of red thread rope will be given to you, as a thank you gift. ”

"Fortunately, I met it, otherwise I would have to come back tomorrow......"

A bundle of red thread rope was handed to Di Qing's hand, and after a short slight contact, the skin of his fingers brushed his palm, Di Qing was probably drunk, and stood in place blankly.

Di Qing looked up at Bai Juan and was silent for a long time.

Finally.

He plucked up his courage and asked seriously, "Are you doing well?" ”

Bai Juan was stunned, and then smiled: "Okay! ”

Di Qing nodded and said, "That's good." ”

He put the red cord in the warmest part of his arms and turned to leave.

Bai Juan saw him go to Sweetwater Alley, so she muttered, "Strange boy." ”

The rain started to fall.

At first it rained lightly, and then gradually became majestic, and the pedestrians on the street hid under the eaves on both sides, some were running wildly, some were laughing.

In the midst of these normal reactions, Di Qing walked slowly in the heavy rain, reached out and touched the bundle of red thread rope in his arms, and was not in a hurry under his feet, as if he was on a sunny spring outing.

The rain fell on the leaves and dripped into his mouth, it tasted strange, Di Qing looked up and smiled.

All the way to Qin's house, Qin Wei shouted when he saw that he had turned into a soup chicken: "Go and prepare hot water, and also, prepare a set of new clothes for Brother Di to change." ”

Di Qing didn't thank him, so he sat under the eaves and watched the heavy rain.

"What's going on?"

Qin Wei sensed that he was not in a good mood.

Di Qing shook his head and said: "In the past, I always didn't understand, my brother passed away for so many years, why did my sister-in-law still hold on to that house and refuse to remarry, she had no relatives and children, but she was willing to live this life alone like this, why?" ”

This evil is something on the mind.

There are only two kinds of things that can make men take care of their hearts.

One is that he has done bad things and has a weak heart, and the other is that he falls in love with a woman and has low self-esteem.

Di Qing is probably the latter.

I don't know if he's done anything bad, but he won't be weak-hearted.

"Who do you like?"

"A woman who has become a relative."

“……”

Qin Wei looked at the sky speechlessly, but the sky was dark and full of dark clouds.

That shouldn't be. ”

Di Qing lowered his head, "I know that I shouldn't, but I just miss her in my heart, I think about it when I am in the barracks, I think about it when I am fighting abroad, and I think about it when I am practicing knives...... You know, I never wandered when I practiced knives before. ”

It's not distraction, it's crazy.

Qin Weizheng said: "The reason why people are human is because we are rational and have set rules for ourselves, if it weren't for this, the world you see now would be chaotic." Your liking her is a reaction, it's your own reaction, but you can't impose your own preferences on others, it's unfair and unethical. ”

Di Qing shook his head and said: "I'm not afraid of lack of virtue, and I'm not afraid of being unfair, but she doesn't mean that to so." ”

"It's boring."

Qin Wei picked him up and warned: "Bianliang City is very big, but it is also very small, and the news will spread quickly." Also, don't do things impulsively, otherwise it will ruin you and her, there are no exceptions and flukes. ”

Di Qing was silent, but his eyes were very bright.

He stayed at Qin's house, Qin Wei drank with him until he was half drunk, and after returning to the bedroom, Liu Shu asked, "Why is Di Qing doing this today?" ”

He used to drink a lot, but he didn't get drunk, but today he is drunk...... Is this something wrong?

"I have something on my mind, so I want to stay at home for a few days, probably because our house is close......"

Qin Wei got into bed, cautiously approached his wife, and asked, "How do you feel today?" ”

Liu Shu lay on the bed and felt it, shook her head and said, "As usual, it seems that there are no children." ”

"The child is still young."

Qin Wei stretched out his hand, Liu Shu raised his head cooperatively, and then pressed it down, pillowing it in the crook of his arm.

The cooperation between the husband and wife is incomparable.

"Husband, do you want to tell the story of a woman and seven men tonight?"

"I must say that this is called prenatal education ......"

"Let's talk about it."

"Once upon a time there was a girl surnamed Bai who got lost in the forest and met seven lewd old men...... Later, the white girl accidentally ate the poisonous apple, and the seven old men found a prince named Frog and woke her up......"

I don't know when, Qin Wei stopped the story with a dry mouth, and when he turned his head, Liu Shu was already asleep, he raised his head and struggled to blow out.

The candlelight flickered a few times, but it was not extinguished.

I'll go!

Qin Wei puffed up again and blew again.

The bedroom fell into darkness, and Qin Wei lay quietly, feeling the temperature of the people around him.

This is my home!

He gradually fell asleep, and at some point, the voice of Aunt Chen came from outside.

"Lang Jun ......"

Qin Wei opened his eyes, coughed dryly, and then carefully pulled out his arm, he got up and went out, Wu Ma outside with an umbrella, "Lang Jun, Di Lang Jun has a fever." ”

Qin Wei hurriedly went to the front yard, and Sun Haomin and Duan Yu were already there.

Duan Yu pretended to be taking the pulse, but this guy didn't seem to have the ability to see a doctor except for soaking medicinal wine.

Sun Haomin picked up the candlestick and lit up the bed.

Qin Wei leaned over and saw that the face of the person sent was red.

He stretched out his hand and touched it, his forehead was hot, and he said, "This is because of the rain, and the mood is depressed, which leads to a fever...... Go and call Lang Zhong! ”

After the rain, the air is filled with the smell of earth, which some people call earthy smell, and some people call it earthy fragrance.

When Di Qing opened his eyes, he felt that the light was too bright and he was a little dizzy, so he stretched out his hand to block his eyes.

Over the years, he has been sick only a handful of times, and his body is naturally stronger than ordinary people, and he didn't feel anything if he didn't wear clothes on a snowy day before.

"How does it feel?"

"It's fine."

Qin Wei came in, he was wearing an official uniform, and he looked more stable.

He reached out and touched Pang Shiying's forehead and said, "The fever has subsided, Chunxing has boiled porridge for you, remember to drink more water." ”

Di Qing naturally asked, "Where are you going?" ”

Qin Wei turned around and pushed open the window and said, "The envoy of Western Xia is here, Qiu Shuxuan is not in Bianliang today, I will go and take a look to prevent those people from doing things." ”

……

Duting Xiyi, at this moment, there is an extra team of sergeants outside.

The envoy of Western Xia stood outside the gate with people, breathing in the air after the rain, and praised: "The smell of Bianliang is good. ”

The taste of Bianliang is good, all kinds of food, all kinds of fireworks.

"Lord Qin is here."

Qin Wei was surrounded by the officials of the Rite Court, and the Western Xia envoy greeted him and said, "The lower officials have seen Lord Qin. ”

Qin Zhibu asked, "What did Li Yuanhao send you to do?" ”

The envoy smiled and said, "Your Majesty asked So-and-so to bring some good horses." ”

This is a tribute coming.

The situation between the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia was like this, the northwest direction was at war, and the two sides beat the human brains into dog brains, but while fighting, the Western Xia people would send envoys to give gifts, and the Great Song would return the gifts.

In other words, the two families are fighting while singing about friendship and peace.

Most of these skills will not be able to be done in later generations.

Qin Wei had already seen those dozens of horses before he came, and they were good horses. However, for the Great Song Dynasty, this war horse did not play a role at all.

"Too little."

Qin Wei stood outside the gate like a hooligan, holding his head slightly high, only holding a leather whip in his hand.

"Your hearts are not sincere, dozens of horses, what kind of gift is this?"

The messenger smiled dryly, "That's how it used to be. ”

Isn't it the same thing to give gifts to the Great Song Dynasty, just to make a good appearance, satisfy the vanity of the Song people and all the countries to come to the court, and then return home with a rich return gift.

Every time an envoy goes to fight the autumn wind, the Western Xia is poor, and the poor have no surplus food, so the frequency of the envoys is a little high.

But what kind of gift are dozens of horses?

Qin Wei felt that he couldn't get used to the problem of the Xixia people fighting the autumn wind.

"But now the rules have changed."

Qin Wei said coldly: "The Great Song Dynasty doesn't need your war horses, bring them back." ”

The envoy felt that Qin Wei was joking, "Lord Qin, the Great Song Dynasty needs war horses, and more than anything...... Otherwise, the iron cavalry of the Liao people can break through the Baigou River. ”

Baigou River is on the border twenty miles away from Hejian Mansion, and the envoy specially brought it up, indicating that he had done his homework before coming and knew Qin Wei's origin.

This was an ardent supporter of the Northern Expedition.

"We need war horses, but we don't need war horses sent to the door."

Qin Wei forced his eyes at the envoy, "Don't try to fool people, if the Great Song Dynasty needs a war horse, he will personally go and get it, just like when he was in Fuzhou, just like when he was in Yuanzhou, kill his opponents and seize their war horses, this is what the Great Song Dynasty should do." ”

The envoy only felt a cool air rushing to his face, and he smiled and said, "Please see His Majesty Emperor Song." ”

"Your Majesty will not see you."

Qin Wei said very firmly: "If you come here, it means that you won't get cheap this time, so if you have something to say, go back if you don't have anything." ”

But the envoy did not believe it, and he said: "Your Majesty said before leaving that my country and the Great Song Dynasty are like brothers, and now they are ......."

"No brothers!"

As soon as Qin Wei opened his mouth, he cut off people's back roads: "Great Song and Western Xia, one is a parent, the other is a rebellious child who fled, and it has nothing to do with brothers. ”
