"Although the fourth child is a little arrogant, he is simple and direct, and he may not be suitable for being in charge. In the courtyard, Gong Yiren was lying on the bed, and the Zhao family beside him was crawling in his arms like a kitten.

The two have relied on each other for many years, and they have long been old husbands and wives, and there are often such warm moments, but Gong Yiren's health is getting worse and worse, and the intimacy between the two has naturally been interrupted for many years, but Zhao doesn't care at all, and it is satisfying to be able to snuggle in his arms like this.

"The third ......" Gong Yiren sighed and said: "The mind is active, and the words and deeds can be done without leakage, but unfortunately, there is a little less truth and a little clear." That's why I didn't dare to hand over the stewardship to him. My father-in-law is the leader of the Jinzhou family, and he must act in a square and round manner, and he can't just care about the benefits in front of him. It was originally a great thing to help the homeless, first, to win people's popularity, and second, to make the court impeach us for power, and the people who were powerful and good had nothing to say. But what did the third child do this time...... I was so disappointed. ”

How could he not know about the little Jiujiu in the heart of the public loss, thinking of the first time he saw the few hand-copied accounts that Ma Liu secretly took back, he almost fainted with anger, and immediately wanted to open the ancestral hall and summon the clan, intending to severely punish the public loss, but in the end, he still endured it.

After all, he is a brother, if he really exposes this matter, I am afraid that in the future, he will lose in the public loser, and even in the whole Jinzhou, he will not be able to be a man.

He can only leave the matter to the public Yinxue for the time being, and also use this to knock the public to investigate, as for whether he can realize it...... That can only depend on his personal understanding.

"It's Yinxue, the kid, who knows the general situation. Gong Yiren patted the back of his wife's hand and said, "Ma Liu told me when he reported today, she was able to resist not stabbing me with the things in the official warehouse, which proves that she still understands the truth of family and prosperity......

With a slight sentence, the identity of Ma Liu has already been pointed out, and it is estimated that Yinxue would not have thought that Ma Liu, who is obedient to her on weekdays and is low-key and sleek, will be one of the eyes and ears of Gong Yiren.

Zhao said quietly: "Yinxue is a good child, but since she is in danger outside, you handed over everything to the third child, why did you hand it back to Yinxue at this time?

Gong Yiren smiled and said: "Of course I won't let her take over a mess, you don't know, my younger brother, in order to fill the hole in the big warehouse, and he didn't dare to use too much money on the surface, today he just gave his brother-in-law's dowry a lot and went out......"

"Take all the dowries?" Zhao was slightly surprised, "This is a big deal, master, why did you let him do it? If these dowries flow to the market, there will always be people who will recognize that this is our public loser's thing, and when the time comes, outsiders will have to laugh at our public loser for being reduced to selling his daughter-in-law's dowry...... You're still smiling......"

Gong Yiren smiled with crooked eyebrows, waved his hand and said: "Where can I let this kind of thing happen, I had long expected that the third child would do this, so I greeted the pawnshop owner in advance, those things, he will keep them under me, and when the third child has money, I will redeem them." Rest assured, this is nothing more than a trifle. ”

"Now that Yinxue has taken over, I am much more relieved. Gong Yiren said: "She has never let me worry too much, speaking of which, I am ...... Something was owed to her. ”

Zhao nodded with a smile and said, "Fortunately, you agreed to her marriage, I heard from Fluttershy that she really likes that Qin Ke, and now that you are ready to do a big deal about this marriage for her, she should understand the master's heart." ”

Gong Yiren said: "If you want to talk about your heart, that is also the most you give, this purchase and arrangement, you should be in charge, she should be grateful to you." ”

"Didn't you also ask Mr. Pingru in the city to choose an auspicious day for her? I heard that gentleman has a very strange temper, and everyone looks like a master of the world, I'm afraid you have wasted a lot of thoughts, right?" Zhao suddenly raised his head and said: "But why are you in such a hurry? You will get married in three days? Why don't you wait for ten days and a half months, so that the people below can be more prepared......"

Gong Yiren shook his head and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to wait that long, and now Doctor Lu has sent someone to see me, and my body is ......."

His mouth was covered by Zhao's hand, and Zhao's eyes were filled with tears: "Don't say it, don't say anything unlucky!"

Gong Yiren was also a little sad in his heart, he knew that his wife had been suffering and difficult, so he could only put his forehead against her forehead and gently took her hand away: "Okay, okay, don't say that frustrating word." It's just that there's one more thing I'm really worried about. ”

"Worried about what?"

"Tang Guo and Canghai will sooner or later offend my Mo family...... Today, I received another message from the north, and 3,000 border troops were surrounded and annihilated in Ruhuoling...... The movement of the Tang army is getting bigger and bigger, but the partial court is still like that! The Mo family has a vast territory and a border stretching for thousands of miles, but it will not be weakened like this...... If you want to change Wang Xuanwei to lead the troops, where will you allow that group of clowns to break into the territory of my Mo family to burn, kill and loot?"

Zhao buried his head in Gong Yiren's arms, and the two of them let out a deep and distant sigh together.

The night was deep, but the starlight was still like a pair of bright eyes flickering in the air, looking at the vast land and the thousands of people in this world.

Qin Ke stretched out his hand and grabbed a corner of the eaves, and then his whole body shook along this fulcrum, floating up like a leaf, and then his feet fell on the eaves, and then he raised his head and looked at the back.

It wasn't the first time he had seen her sitting on the eaves, as thin as a bird about to fly away.

He coughed and said, "It's so high here, don't you dare to climb up and look at the stars alone, and you're not afraid at all?"

Cai Yan didn't turn his head, just continued to look at the sky, and said, "Aren't you also afraid?" ”

"That's different. Qin Ke said: "I have cultivation, it's easy to get here, but what if you don't grasp it and fall down......

The corners of Cai Yan's mouth curved slightly: "Are you worried about me, or are you worried that you won't be able to explain to my father when the time comes?"

Qin Ke smiled slightly bitterly, walked over, sat beside her by himself, and raised his head as well, letting the starlight bathe his face.

"I don't know your father either, and I can't explain it. Of course I'm worried about you, you're running up and down like this, and sooner or later you'll slip under your feet......"

Cai Yan tilted his head and squinted slightly, as if he had been caught by the starlight, "Why haven't you gone back yet?"

Cai Yan held up his chin and said a little absent-mindedly: "It's not too early now, isn't there a beautiful wife at home who is almost past the door waiting for you to go back?" Just like my brother, every time he gets off the court, thinking of my sister-in-law waiting for him at home, I can't wait to hang a few more horses in front of the carriage and fly all the way home...... You're not in a hurry. ”

Qin Ke was stabbed by her inexplicable words, and he was a little confused...... What kind of development is this? I haven't known Yinxue for long, how can I get involved in Cai Xiang and his wife falling in love with each other?

He could only scratch his head and say, "Uh...... I just sent Lao Gao back to my room. ”

It's funny to say, Gao Yishui originally planned to explain his entire plan to Qin Ke in detail, but halfway through, the two jars of wine he drank finally flooded his sober brain like a tidal wave, washing away all his thoughts.

As a result, he began to go up to the hut and release it as if he had opened the gate to release water, and finally because of the dark night and high wind, he sang like a wolf crying all the way, so he frightened the pot-bellied rich merchant in the thatched house next door, and they cried all the way without even lifting their pants: "Monster monster ...... monster"

Flee.

And after he finished going to the thatched house for the eighth time, he finally went crazy to the extreme, his tongue was knotted, his speech was confused, and he sang a poem by Li Qiuhuang with a rare and strange pronunciation, while wanting to take off his shoes and socks in public to show everyone how to play the guqin with his toes......

Bai Qi was hit by a kick on his forehead, and Abu was covered in the soup he kicked over, and they and Qin Ke were in a hurry, and it took a huge amount of strength to send Gao Yishui back to the room.

It's bitter Abu, and now he has to endure the constant harassment of Gao Yishui, such as treating him as a beautiful girl, so he has to come up and kiss him or something......

Qin Ke finally found an opportunity to sneak out, although he has an excellent relationship with Abu, it doesn't mean that he won't be a deserter of a chicken thief at such a time.

"Over there...... Nothing. Qin Ke pretended to laugh and said: "Yinxue has already gone back, I think someone will ask about it, she can handle it, it's okay for me to go back later." ”

"Sounds like you trust her. Cai Yan said quietly: "So, do you really want to marry her?"

Qin Ke looked at the stars, and then at Cai Yan's side face that looked like it could be blown in the moonlight, and felt that this question was a little embarrassing.

If this is the case, he can only honestly answer: "Yes." ”

But he quickly denied it: "However, she and I are just pretending to be married, on the way to Jinzhou, we have already agreed, I will help her break into the formation, help her gain the trust of her ancestors, and when she sits in the position of the head of the public loser, she will do everything she can to help us get the compass of the Five Elements Sinan, and after that, we will each go our separate ways, and the two do not owe each other." ”

Cai Yan nodded: "Sounds fair." ”
