Chapter 20: Half Ninety
"Oh, hey, hey..." came a suppressed laugh from the side.
Jia Lian has regretted coming to Yangzhou countless times today.
That's not how it shouldn't have been!
"Hmm..." his face was pinched by a pair of white and tender hands again.
I can't let people have a good meal, how many times!
Jia Min couldn't help but want to pinch Jia Lian's little face to confirm whether it was true.
Pinch and release, eat a few bites of food, want to confirm again, reach out and pinch again.
Xiao Daiyu, who was sitting opposite, saw her cousin's loveless appearance, and tried not to let the rice in her mouth squirt out, covering her mouth and wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh.
Old Mrs. Lin couldn't stand it anymore, and stretched out her left hand to knock Jia Min's restless hand off Jia Lian's numb little face.
Jia Lian glanced at Mrs. Lin gratefully.
Lin Hai bowed his head and was silent, silently picking up the rice.
"I've eaten, let's go down and rest first, Hai'er, don't neglect Brother Lian."
The old lady also has spring and autumn, and she eats less and less.
Jia Lian hurriedly got up and helped Mother Lin to get up with her mother-in-law, and the other people at the table also quickly stood up, and waited for the old lady to return to the house, and then did it again.
"Lian'er, I haven't had time to ask, why are you here?"
Jia Min was the first to speak.
"Back to my aunt, my little nephew was ordered by the old lady and the old man this time to go down to Jiangnan with the boat to visit my aunt, and the family knew the news of my aunt's pregnancy, so I was very happy, and hurriedly collected a boatload of treasures for me to send to you, there are a lot of good things!"
Jia Lian emphasized that he was ordered to come, and hinted at something.
Jia Min is also the eldest lady of the Guogong Mansion, so can't you hear that Jia Lian is asking for benefits?
"Little slippery head, good things are indispensable for you, by the way, how are your grandmothers doing?"
Jia Min smiled and tapped Jia Lian's forehead with his finger, thought of something again, and hurriedly asked about the situation at home.
"It's all good, the old lady has been addicted to listening to dramas recently, and the tired little actors at home stick out their tongues every day.
The lord and the second uncle have also been very good recently, Brother Zhu has been promoted, and Sister Yuan is also going to participate in the election, and the father-in-law who came to the house to announce the decree said that it was to draft the princes who came back from training.
My eldest brother is even more amazing, I heard the uncles of the Shi family say that when the eldest brother comes back and is rewarded, at least he will be a marquis! ”
Jia Lian excitedly told Jia Min about the situation at home, and Jia Min quietly listened to the information from his nephew's mouth like a lady, and breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart.
Everybody's doing well!
"Wait, Brother Lian, my aunt wants to know, what is this Sister Feng in your mouth..."
When Jia Lian was talking in a hurry, Jia Min was keenly aware of an unusual name, and squinted his eyes and looked at Jia Lian.
"Ah, Sister Feng, Sister Feng, she, she is..."
Jia Lian regretted wanting to slap herself twice, how could she blurt out Sister Feng'er. I had no choice but to bite the bullet and say.
"Sister Feng and Sister Feng are the nieces of the second aunt, the eldest lady of the Wang family, and she often followed the second aunt's second sister-in-law to our house to play a while ago."
Jia Min knew it in his heart.
He has also heard about Wang Ziteng being demoted to a gatekeeper, and it seems that Wang Ziteng has begun to walk around the house.
I actually hate the Wang family very much, especially my second sister-in-law Wang Shuqing. is obviously from Gao Panjia's family, but finally his father relented, and he married the second brother who had no chance with the title.
That's it, I still have a stinky face of the eldest lady when I marry in, as if my Jia family has climbed the Wang family.
I still shouted that I had to lecture myself from time to time, joking, just kidding, just because the daughter of the Wang family is not talented is virtuous, what else can I say about myself?
She was speechless several times in front of everyone, and she lost face.
Do you still want to challenge your sister-in-law and want to be a housekeeper? I'm blind.
Even she Jia Min can't fight, and she dares to challenge the smiling tiger sister-in-law? There are no doors.
Her eldest lady Jia was cut by her sister-in-law's soft knife, and she was pinched unconsciously.
It's just sister-in-law... Alas.
The sister-in-law still left.
"Do you like that Sister Feng?" Jia Min went straight to the point.
"Ah, no, my eldest brother said, 'There is no woman in my heart, draw a knife and be a natural god', how can I, Jia Lian, like that female worm!" Jia Lian was incoherent, not only on his face, but also on his neck.
"That's like?"
Jia Lian felt as if his neck was choked.
"I just feel happy to be with her, she smells good and wants to play with him all the time..."
Jia Min was surprised, and sighed in his heart, there is a Wang daughter who has married into the family, what if there is another second sister-in-law?
Forget it, anyway, the eldest brother and mother always have the means to deal with it, what do you do with the heart of your mother's family as a foreign-married girl.
"Okay, okay, it's all over, then go and rest, madam, you are also pregnant, your body is heavy, it's better to go back and rest, Brother Lian, let's go and rest too, let your sister take you to visit this palace in the afternoon."
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Lin Hai got up and said.
Jia Lian hurriedly followed her mother-in-law to the guest room.
。。。。。。
Jia Min Yuan.
Lin Hai sat on the chair and looked at his wife lying on the bed against the quilt gently.
He had already figured out what kind of character this person was on the bed, he had no heart or lungs, but he could see it clearly. If you are angry, as long as you vent your temper on the spot, you will immediately be able to talk and laugh like a nobody.
I don't know who my daughter's sentimental temperament is.
"Ruhai, there is another daughter of the Wang family who will marry into Rongguo Mansion." Jia Min spoke.
"There's no way, I remember that Sister Feng also came with us when we got married, right, that's it, the daughter of the eldest of the Wang family.
The eldest prince of the Wang family, he and I were in the middle of the same year, but unfortunately died early, if you really want to count it, he is the heir of the Wang family, and the Wang family is a member of our Jinling family, no matter how you say it, they are all good matches for Brother Lian, even if we are not satisfied, what's the use? ”
The so-called Jinling faction is actually not limited to the local Jinling family, such as the Lin family is the Gusu clan. The Zhen family also moved to Jinling from elsewhere.
The main reason is that this group of people is close because of various willingness, and most of them are from Jinling, and the base camp is also in Jinling, so it is called Jinling faction.
"Well, but my second sister-in-law impressed me too deeply, the only little sister of the Wang family who has a good impression is also a person who is used to praising high and stepping on low, so she is stronger than them and has a soft temperament, I just don't know what kind of character this Wang Xifeng is, it's just that, what are you doing with this heart, so as not to tire my son."
The pampering on Jia Min's face seemed to be able to condense into water, and a pair of jade hands slowly rubbed against his lower abdomen, as if he could touch the child in his belly.
"If you have another son, and Daiyu will make up a 'good', and the concubine's life will be complete."
"What kind of stupid thing to say, how can you give birth to a 'good'? Why do you want three? ”
"Three? The concubine is a plow... Cats? How many babies are there in one child? ”
Jia Min still wants to maintain her ladylike persona.
The two talked and laughed for a while, Jia Min was also tired, Lin Hai hurriedly put down the curtain at the head of Jia Min's bed and walked out gently.
。。。。。。
Plateau.
Jia Hui left all the wounded soldiers and 400 people stationed in the reform, and Hou Kuang, a brother from the Xiuguo Mansion, was in charge.
After staying for three days and resting, I set off again.
He began to march day and night again.
From here, the number of shepherds grew.
Among Jia Hui's more than 6,500 people, a full 1,000 men and horses were sent to detect and guard the surroundings to minimize the chance of being discovered.
Except for the veterans who were taken with them, the rest of the captives were all imprisoned in the Reform.
Not why, just because he has rich survival experience and is familiar with the geography along the way, Asr knows the road, but when asked what the path is, Asr is blind.
"General, the front is Serin wrong."
Five days later, in the early hours of the morning, Jia Huibu arrived at a large lake.
After careful identification by the veterans, it was confirmed that this was Serin Lake.
According to the Tibetan saying, the fault is the lake, and the mistake of Serin is the lake of Serin.
"So, what we just passed by was the Kangba Dochin Mountain?"
"Back to the general, the big mountain in the south is Kangba Doqin Mountain." Asr hurriedly replied.
"Got it, tell the following, camp and rest, and walk to Namco Lake tomorrow by sticking to the mountain." I've been running all night, and now the days are short and the nights are long, and the time for everyone to hurry is getting longer and longer, and after walking for most of the day, everyone has reached the limit.
Chagan Bari and Shui Che agreed and went down to make arrangements.
Shi Yuanxiu and Chen Jingyuan came over.
"Brother Hun, it's almost time to get to Luo, this battle is finally coming to an end, it's not easy. It's been almost five months since Dihua got here, right? Chen Jingyuan sighed.
"Almost, I set off at the beginning of June, and now it's November in a few days, and it's the hardest time." Shi Yuanxiu also sighed for a while.
"As the old saying goes, those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety, how many people are relieved at this last step, and they fall short? You must know that it is the most difficult to persevere until the end. ”
Jia Hui took out a small map.
"Next, we will go south along the Khambadoqin Mountain, bypass Namtso Lake, and then flip through the Nianqing Tanggula Mountain, and the Logic is right under our noses.
There is still an obstacle in the middle, Bangor City is here, according to Asr and the Tubo old soldier, there are also a thousand households here, and the city is a little bigger than the change, but it is also limited, it is still a strategy of four thousand to fight and two thousand to postpone, and there will be no more obstacles to fight Gange, and then I don't need to say anything, right? ”
Chen Shi and the others will also smile heartily, and when the time comes, they will rush in and kill people, and the Buddha will block and kill the Buddha.
"By the way, go tell Lao Liang that they can start configuring."
Lao Liang is a master craftsman who accompanied the army this time, and it was he who led people to tinker along the way, and the group was able to walk from the Gobi to the plateau.
He will also carry out the final weapons construction.
The next evening.
The GIs packed up the things of the temporary camp in an orderly manner, skillfully clearing the traces. It's all old soldiers, and these things have turned into instinct.
Here to the southwest 300 miles for Bangor, in 300 miles for Namco Lake, and then to the south is Nianqing Tanggula Mountain, under the mountain is to think about the five months of Luo.
The thought of this made the GIs feel empowered.
One person took a meat porridge and dried meat that had been warmed in advance by the gang leader, and couldn't help but sigh, it turned out that meat could be eaten until it was boring.
From the beginning of the fried rice, I drank it for a month. After drinking it, they changed to fried noodles, and after drinking it for more than a month, the grain changed, but the jerky kept drinking, and it was as if they were going to be punished three times a day.
Especially after changing to fried noodles, if the mushy taste was not really nothing else to eat, it would have been deducted on the head of the gang leader, and some people wanted to do this, but when they saw that the gang leader army master was about to top his thigh-thick arm, he followed his inner choice.
The third time to change the ingredients was the time when the new era was recently conquered, and finally changed from fried noodles to barley, and the barley in the entire city was requisitioned, in exchange, they gave the remaining fried noodles to the local residents, and the local residents also ate this for the first time, and immediately took advantage of all the barley and replaced it with fried noodles.
I can't say who suffers.
In order to hurry, everyone ate on the horse, and the horse followed the horse, and in this relatively flat place, he would not be left behind.
The army of six thousand five hundred Qi slowly but surely advanced towards the king of the plateau.
