Zhao Pheasant is not afraid of stomach pain, nor is he afraid of sudden death, but he can't bear to become a dead fat man.

originally wanted to disgust her, but he was beaten by words, he twitched the corners of his mouth, held his stomach and withdrew.

Mrs. Zhao couldn't help but smile and said, "Xiuxiu, don't forget to pick out a makeup box for Ah Ying." ”

Zhao Pheasant said casually: "Not free!" ”

Liang Ying snorted coldly in her heart, don't think that she is a rabbit and easy to bully.

After finishing breakfast, she said that she wanted to go to see Tan Sanniang, but Mrs. Zhao did not restrict her freedom, and Liang Ying cleaned up a little and went out of the yard.

After she left, Aunt Gong said: "This little lady Wang is weak on weekdays, but she is actually a person with character. ”

Mrs. Zhao shook her fan and said: "You don't look at what people look like, if I have her appearance, my tail will not be cocked to the sky?" ”

These words made Aunt Gong laugh.

Mrs. Zhao: "My son is too wild and unruly, so he should find a lady who can suppress him." I see that Wang Ying is weak on the outside, but she is a little tough in her bones, which shows that she has an idea. ”

Aunt Gong still couldn't understand her dedication to Liang Ying, and half-believed and half-questioned: "Then the little lady Wang is really as prosperous as the old lady said?" ”

Mrs. Zhao said undoubtedly: "Rich and noble, thief Wangfu, if you don't believe it, wait and see." ”

Liang Ying on the other side went to Tan Sanniang's house, but no one was found, and the neighbor said that he went to the back mountain to help weed.

It was the middle of May, and the mountains were in limited condition, and the terraced fields that had been reclaimed were planted with a lot of wheat, sorghum and soybeans.

Nowadays, the wheat is gradually maturing and a little yellow, and in this era of injustice, grain is particularly precious.

Tan Sanniang seems to have gotten used to life here, talking and laughing with several women.

Liang Ying stood on the path and shouted, she looked up, and soon came over.

The two were taken captive together, and the relationship can be regarded as intimate, Tan Sanniang gossiped with great interest: "I saw Zhao Pheasant yesterday, that kid was really handsome, with broad shoulders and narrow waist, proficient in all eighteen kinds of martial arts, and beat Huang Pizi on the training ground. ”

Liang Ying frowned slightly and said, "I don't deal with him, and I can't look at it anywhere." ”

Tan Sanniang said "ouch", pulled her aside, and said in a low voice: "You still don't like it, I like it very much, young, heroic, you didn't see his waist, long legs, buttocks, if you strip naked and lie on the bed, you have to be strong." ”

This is really obscene, Liang Ying said awkwardly: "I'll tell you seriously." ”

Tan Sanniang: "You haven't experienced anything, such a man is strong enough to use, his waist and abdomen are tight, his legs are long and straight, and he feels ......"

Liang Ying pinched her unbearably, and said, "I stabbed him with scissors the night before." ”

Tan Sanniang was stunned and said in surprise: "Did he use it against you?" ”

Liang Ying shook her head, and immediately talked roughly about the process of Zhao Pheasant's return, emphasizing the fear of being locked by him.

Tan Sanniang listened but didn't care, waved her hand and said: "The situation was special at that time, it was a complete misunderstanding. He added, "Last evening, the second shopkeeper came to ask me in person, if I want to leave Manluan Village, as long as I agree to leave, I will immediately prepare a plate to send me away, and I will go back wherever I came from." ”

Liang Ying hurriedly asked, "Have you allowed it?" ”

Tan Sanniang rubbed her head secretly, "I don't want to go." ”

Liang Ying was stunned and couldn't understand: "Are you crazy?" ”

Tan Sanniang: "I'm not crazy, I'm very sober." After a pause, he said, "Ah Ying, you are different from me, you have never experienced anything, I have been married four times, and no man has lasted long." The world is uneven outside, and my mother's family doesn't want to see me, and I have nowhere to go, do you understand? ”

Liang Ying pursed her lips and was silent.

Tan Sanniang continued: "It's very good here, the neighbors are harmonious, stable, and there are many men. ”

"It's not serious again."

"I'm very serious, I'll tell you secretly, I gave the second shopkeeper a match." He added, "Li Er is still a showman, he looks like a well-rounded person, he speaks in a well-mannered manner, he doesn't look like he has a temper, and he is also a decent person, which is very much in line with me." ”

“……”

"Anyway, as long as you are not a lazy person here, you will have enough to eat, I have to give it a try to see if I can hook Li Er."

“……”

"It's you, if you don't deal with Zhao Pheasant like this, what are your plans for in the future?"

Liang Ying was silent for a long time before she said: "Everyone has their own ambitions, if Sanniang feels that this place is suitable, I hope that you are good, but I can't, I can't stay for a moment." ”

Tan Sanniang frowned slightly, lowered her voice and said, "You want to escape?" ”

Liang Ying nodded.

Tan Sanniang couldn't help but worry, and said secretly: "Actually, I also explored the terrain of Manluan Mountain earlier, and the road ahead is unwalkable, it is full of cliffs, and my legs are weak just by standing on the side." ”

Liang Ying quietly glanced at the terraced fields not far away, and Tan Sanniang said: "The crops in the back mountain can go out, but you have to go through the forests and turn over a few mountains.

"I secretly asked the villagers here, the forest covers the sky and the sun, there are a lot of hunting traps, and there are jackals and wild things in the forest, how can you get out of a weak woman?"

Liang Ying said with a firm gaze: "Even if it is a ghost gate, I have to break through." He added, "I don't want to be trapped here in the company of a vulgar man like Zhao Pheasant, he is a ruffian, savage and fierce, and can do anything." ”

Tan Sanniang knew that this matter could not be forced, after all, she was going to strip naked and sleep, so she said: "If you really want to break through the ghost gate, you have to be prepared." ”

The two whispered in detail, and chatted with the women of the village for a while.

The woman told them that the forest was a forbidden place in the village of Manluan, and that no one from outside could enter, and no one from inside could get out.

First, there are many snakes, insects and beasts, secondly, there are hunting traps and hidden weapons set up everywhere, and thirdly, the canopy is so tall that it almost obscures the sky and the sun, so you can't tell the direction at all and it's easy to get lost.

Only the cliffs in front of you are the usual way for people to travel.

However, the villagers will not go out easily, they need to report to Li Sui, and the villagers don't know how to go out through the forest at all, only the bandits know.

Hearing these words, Liang Ying didn't feel good in her heart.

The woman was clearly warning her that it would be difficult to escape.

She didn't want to go back to face Zhao Pheasant, so she simply lingered here until noon.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw Mrs. Zhao greet her with a smile, and said affectionately: "Ah Ying is back, hurry up and come into the house to take a look, I told Xiuxiu to prepare the makeup box utensils for you, see if you are satisfied?" ”

Seeing that she was mysterious, although Liang Ying was mentally prepared, she was still shocked by the vassal elegance in the room when she went in.

Instinctively, the eye fell on the screen, and at a glance it was subtle.

The front is the four exquisite silk of spring, summer, autumn and winter, with the fun of spring, the lotus fragrance of summer, the dusk of autumn, and the snow of winter, which contrast with each other all year round.

If you turn them over, they form a picture of a beautiful woman in spring.

The color is alive and the aura is compelling.

This is a wonderful combination of two silk paintings.

You must know that only princes and nobles are eligible to enjoy such woven things as silk, and Zhao Pheasant brought it to test her knowledge.

Mrs. Zhao was full of interest and asked, "Is this screen beautiful?" ”

Liang Ying came back to her senses and nodded, "It's good-looking." ”

After that, he glanced at the dressing table, which was an ordinary wooden table, but the chair was made of golden pear wood.

The rosewood makeup box on the table is exquisitely made, with four layers, and the top is inlaid with luxurious jewelry, which exudes pride everywhere.

She stretched out her hand to open the makeup box, there was no fat powder in it, but there were a few gold hairpin headdresses, the corners of her lips were slightly raised, and the running expenses sent to the door were very useful.

Mrs. Zhao asked again: "Do you like this golden hairpin?" ”

Liang Ying showed a rare smile and nodded, "I like it." ”

In addition to the usual furniture, there are two landscape paintings, two pieces of porcelain, a rocking chair on the walls, and even the four treasures of the study.

Mrs. Zhao said: "There are still good satin in the warehouse, and I will ask Aunt Gong to make two clothes for you another day." ”

Liang Ying said with a pleasant face: "The cloth is very good, light and breathable. ”

Zhao Pheasant walked to the door at some point, snooping with his hands on his chest, trying to figure out something from her expression.

Liang Ying looked at him generously and said, "The big shopkeeper is so uplifted, which really flatters Ah Ying. ”

Zhao Pheasant raised his eyebrows, and said in his words: "Little Lady Wang doesn't care about the way she comes." ”

Liang Ying didn't sound right, and asked vigilantly, "What's the way?" ”

Zhao Pheasant said deliberately: "You also know that this is a bandit's den, I am not doing a serious business, and there is naturally a way to get some things." ”

Liang Ying: "For example? ”

Zhao Pheasant said gloomily: "In addition to robbery, two tombs in Manluan Mountain were also stolen. ”

As soon as these words came out, Liang Ying's face changed suddenly.

Mrs. Zhao was angry and slapped Zhao Pheasant, and hurriedly said: "Ah Ying, don't be bluffed by him, if we don't dig up people's ancestral graves, we will cut off our children and grandchildren." ”

Fang had just touched the makeup box, and Liang Ying secretly wiped her hands on her clothes.

This small action was seen by Zhao Pheasant, who squinted his eyes and smiled at her.

That appearance was obviously handsome, but it made her feel a little chill in her back, and she only felt ghostly, and she was uncomfortable all over her body.

Zhao Pheasant was very satisfied with her panic.

However, this panic was quickly counterattacked by her, and the next afternoon, when Zhao Pheasant and Li Su returned from business, they found that they had a couplet hanging in the house.

Zhao Pheasant had never been to a private school, he was a rough man, and he couldn't understand the meaning of the couplet, so he went to consult Li Su.

Who would have thought that Li Wei would study it carefully for a long time before telling him that he was scolding.

Zhao Pheasant asked, "What are you scolding me for?" ”

Li Wei held back a smile and replied: "Scolding you for being salty and pickled, you want to be vassal." ”

Zhao Pheasant: "Salty and pickled goods? ”

Li Su nodded, "It's the color of stinky salted meat." ”

Zhao Pheasant: "......"

Li Su was quite curious and asked: "I see that Little Lady Wang is quite kind on weekdays, why did you provoke her and get scolded?" ”

Zhao Pheasant said in a strange manner: "I prepared a makeup box for her yesterday to test her knowledge, it is indeed as A-Niang said, she should be the master who has seen the world." ”

Li Su: "Then I won't scold you." ”

Zhao Pheasant: "I bluffed her, saying that there are two big tombs in the mountains that have produced a lot of good goods." ”

Li Su smiled, and couldn't help but point at him and said, "No wonder people scold you, it should be taboo for you to give her the things in the tomb, it's unlucky." He added, "Listening to her accent, she should be a native of Beijing, the Son of Heaven has a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger at her feet, maybe she really has a bit of a net worth background, and now that she is in trouble, Xiuxiu is still restrained, don't bully people too much." ”

Zhao Pheasant didn't like to hear this, frowned and asked, "Why did I bully her?" ”

Li Su got up and said: "She is your daughter-in-law, your own mother personally asked for it, whether you admit it or not, as long as your mother is still there, you will want to ask other girls again in this life." ”

Zhao Pheasant: "......"

Li Su: "Your aunt once told me in person, saying that Wang Ying is rich and noble, thief Wangfu, your Zhao family's ancestral tomb is smoking to pick up such a little daughter-in-law for you, and you will wait for Feihuang Tengda in the future." ”

Zhao Pheasant didn't believe this nonsense at all.

He naturally knew that his wife would use the art of Huang Lao, but most of them were true.

Who knew that this time Mrs. Zhao's vision was so accurate, Zhao Pheasant originally felt that the profession of bandit was quite suitable for him, and he also planned to continue to carry it forward.

I never thought that Wang Ying's girl would force him to change jobs and re-employment, and just let him, an illiterate person, become an official.

It's just an official, and he's a official during the day and a bandit at night, and he is a while setting up an archway, and he is a chicken with tears!

After learning Liang Ying's ability to beat around and scold people, Zhao Pheasant can't afford to provoke and can always hide.

He manages the patrols and checkpoints in the mountains, and he goes out early and returns late every day to train his subordinates.

Several times, Mrs. Zhao asked him when he would go to Suchang to propose, but he was perfunctory by Zhao Pheasant, he was not interested in Liang Ying at all, and it was impossible for him to propose.

This peace of mind continued until the end of the month, when things went wrong.

Wanping Taishou lost something and couldn't swallow his breath, so he gathered the government of Suchang and Cangzhou to encircle and suppress Manluan Mountain.

The cancer of Manluan Mountain was originally a headache for the two governments, and now Wanping Taishou came to the door and moved the Marquis of Guangyang out to ask them to cooperate with Wanping to suppress the bandits.

A little wheat was ripening in the mountains behind the village, and the women and men were harvesting the grain with sickles.

People were chatting while doing farm work, and just as they were talking energetically, they suddenly heard a short whistle in the mountains and forests.

The whistle was sharp and sharp, and it was especially piercing when it pierced into the ear.

At that time, Tan Sanniang was bundling wheat stalks, and when she saw the woman next to her pricking up her ears and standing up, she was puzzled and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

The woman made a silent gesture at her.

Immediately after that, there was a burst of whistles in the mountains and forests, everyone's faces changed greatly, and a man beckoned: "It's back!" ”

People didn't care about their crops and ran to the village.

Tan Sanniang was confused and said, "What the hell is going on?" ”

An elderly woman hurriedly explained: "When something goes wrong in the mountains, the alarm sounds, alerting us to the officers and soldiers entering the mountains!" ”

Hearing this, Tan Sanniang was also frightened.

The sound of the whistle became more and more intensive, and Liang Ying in the house also heard it and came out to investigate the situation. Seeing Mrs. Zhao standing under the eaves with a solemn expression, Liang Ying asked in confusion: "Old lady, what is this voice?" ”

Mrs. Zhao came back to her senses and reassured: "Ah Ying, don't be afraid, outsiders have entered the mountain." ”

After a while, there was a response from the cliff in front, the same whistle, which was different from the mountain, and the tone was much longer, and the two sides seemed to be communicating.

Liang Ying didn't understand, in fact, the villagers didn't understand, they only knew that it was an alarm.

In the past, Manluan Mountain had been surrounded and suppressed by officers and soldiers no less than four times, and today it came again, which can be seen that it is for the big business a while ago. Li Su was worried, but Zhao Pheasant was calm, and ordered Huang Pizi and others to check which people had entered the mountain first.

Huang Pizi took the order and hurried away.

Zhao Pheasant said to Li Wei again: "These days, the people in the village will take care of Li Er, and I can't worry about it." ”

Li Wei nodded, "Xiuxiu rest assured, the villagers know how to deal with it." ”

The two elaborated on the current situation.

After that, Zhao Pheasant ordered his other subordinates to cheer up and deal with the encirclement and suppression of the officers and soldiers, and everyone was nervous, and behind them were family members and relatives to protect, so they naturally did not dare to slack off.

When night fell, Li Su personally led two men to patrol the village, and went door to door to tell the villagers not to go to the back mountain.

The Zhao family lives at the end of the village, Liang Ying stands in the courtyard looking up at the vast starry sky, tonight the moon is bright, and the stars in the sky converge into a galaxy overhead.

A few fireflies flickered and extinguished in the dark night, and birds chirped from time to time in the mountains and forests in the distance.

The black and oppressive mountains are like ghosts in the night, and they are hot during the day, and there is no earthly atmosphere at night.

She felt the cool breeze and imagined that she could become a mountain breeze and float out of here.

"Hotaru."

Mrs. Zhao's voice came from the house.

Liang Ying came back to her senses and answered.

Mrs. Zhao said: "There are many snakes and insects outside, don't be bitten by mosquitoes." ”

Liang Ying entered the house at this time.

The days in the mountains were simple and peaceful, but there was no freedom, lying on the couch, Liang Ying put her hands behind her head, pondering that the group of bandits who entered the mountain were too busy to take care of themselves, and most of them couldn't control her.

If she wants to enter the forest from the back mountain, she has to prepare hemp rope, realgar, water bladders, dry food, fire folds, and knives...... She was thinking about how she would be able to prepare all the things she needed.

In the following days, most of the bandits left the village to deal with the encirclement and suppression, and only Li Wei and two men were left in the village.

Liang Ying got a glimpse of the opportunity to escape, and she secretly found Tan Sanniang and asked her to buy the items she needed.

Tan Sanniang was frightened by her thoughts, and said in surprise: "Ah Ying really plans to escape from the back mountain?" ”

Liang Ying nodded and said solemnly: "I have been thinking about it for a long time, this time the officers and soldiers surrounded the mountain, and the bandits were too busy to take care of themselves, which was my chance to escape." ”

Tan Sanniang frowned, "Have you really figured out how to cross the mountains and mountains?" He added, "You saw the forest, how can you get out?" ”

Liang Ying: "I don't want to be trapped here. After a pause, "Mrs. Zhao won't let me go, I don't deal with Zhao Pheasant, after a long time, I will most likely lose here, rather than this, it is better to gamble." ”

Tan Sanniang was worried.

Liang Ying lobbied and took a lot of words before she was willing to help prepare hemp rope and other things.

The wheat in the back mountain was already ripe, and it had been delayed before, but now it continued to be harvested, and Tan Sanniang secretly hid the things she found in the stone pile while harvesting the wheat.

Divided several times.

After Liang Ying prepared all the things, she couldn't see anything abnormal as usual, and Mrs. Zhao didn't suspect it.

Until the ninth day of the siege of the mountain, she stayed awake that night.

In the middle of the night, after Mrs. Zhao and the others were asleep, Liang Ying secretly packed up her baggage.

She picked up the golden hairpin in the makeup box, and she packed the hidden dry food.

It was early in the summer morning, and she planned to go to the back mountain in the dark, and even if they found that the people were gone, she would have already entered the woods.

At the beginning of her sleep, Liang Ying got up quietly.

She didn't go to the main door, because there would be a "squeak" sound when she opened the door, and for fear of alarming Mrs. Zhao and them, she secretly opened the window and climbed out.

Close the window lightly, it was dark outside, and the breeze was blowing.

Thanks to the fact that there were no dogs in the yard, she carried her baggage, carefully opened the gate through a gap, and left the yard in the dark.
