Chapter 226 Zhu Yixuan’s overture
Zhu Yixuan was silent. These kind words were just used to deceive an ignorant fool like Bai Feng. Since there was a war, how could there be merchants staying at the frontier!
At this moment, a man galloped over on horseback. I don’t know what he said to the military master, but he was quickly let go.
Zhu Yixuan saw the visitor and immediately strode forward, "Butler, why are you here?"
The butler saluted Zhu Yixuan with tears and runny nose, "Young Master, something happened. The young master is gone!"
Zhu Yixuan swayed and turned pale. After a while, he calmed down and asked in a low voice: "Is the illness gone?"
The housekeeper burst into tears. He nodded heavily, "The eldest young lady fell ill, and the madam also fell ill. I have no choice but to ask the younger one to come and report the funeral with you.
There are also some clothes and food that the eldest master prepared for the eldest young master. I hope the young master will protect himself and return safely."
Zhu Yixuan nodded, "I understand! Don't worry, father, I will come back alive! Also, remind my mother of the brocade I gave her. The box can be opened.”
The housekeeper wrote it down carefully and left reluctantly.
Bai Feng stepped forward and patted Zhu Yixuan's shoulder comfortingly, "Brother, my condolences."
Zhu Yixuan was speechless, holding something and walked towards Shen Yi, nodding politely to him, "Just now My housekeeper brought some things and food. If you need anything, just ask me."
Shen Yi stood up and thanked you, "You are so polite, Mr. Zhu. We will not be polite to you if you need it."
There was a smile on Zhu Yixuan's face. He looked at Su Chunsen and asked hesitantly: "Uncle, they."
Seeing that he hesitated to speak, Su Chunsen guessed what he wanted to ask. , subconsciously looked at Shen Yi.
Shen Yi understood the idea and greeted Zhu Yixuan politely: "Master Zhu, do you want to try the snacks we brought? My wife made them. After I came out, it was really pitiful for her to take care of the two children alone. Now, It’s lively now that there are more people in the family, and she is also willing to help me figure out what to eat. This is braised beef, made from beef cattle on the ice sheet, and it’s delicious.”
Zhu Yixuan took a package of braised beef and was stunned. After a moment, he understood the deep meaning of Shen Yi's words, and there was a little more light in his eyes, "You are."
Su Chunlin stepped forward and explained: "This is my son-in-law."
Zhu Yixuan again After bowing solemnly, he left with Lu Braised Beef.
When Bai Feng saw him coming back, he asked dissatisfiedly, "Brother-in-law, those are untouchables, they are not from the same family as us. Why are you so polite to them? If you hadn't restored Su Chunsen to good status, I would have We can make him take care of us!”
He became angry when he talked about it. In the first few days after setting off, he really couldn't endure the hardship of the long journey, so he wanted to be waited on. The only person he could count on in the crowd was Su Chunsen.
They tried both soft and hard tactics to make Su Chunsen obedient, but not only failed, but they were also secretly taught several times by their group.
He went to the officers and soldiers to complain, but they didn't see it, and Su Chunsen and his group didn't admit it, so he had no choice but to let it go. The officers and soldiers became impatient after many times, and he was almost killed.
From then on he had to accept his fate.
Zhu Yixuan looked at Bai Feng's stupid look, his expression was hard to describe, and he sat down and opened the oil paper bag.
A rich aroma of braised beef spreads instantly.
Bai Feng was so greedy that his saliva was almost drooling, "Brother, did the housekeeper bring this to you? Can I have a taste?" Zhu Yixuan shook his head and refused, "This is something you don't appreciate. The untouchable gave it to me, so you can eat it yourself if you don’t like it. There should be other food in the baggage brought by the housekeeper. If you are hungry, you can eat some.”
Bai Feng. His face turned red with anger, so he opened the bag and found that it contained dry food. It was hard and as cold as a stone, and he couldn't eat it at all.
Looking at Zhu Yixuan's braised beef again, he felt even more angry. Su Chunsen's white-eyed wolf clearly did it on purpose! Since you gave it to Zhu Yixuan, you should also give his share. It’s really insidious!
Ma Xingfei and Sang Rong stared at the braised beef in Zhu Yixuan's hand not far away, their eyes almost turned green.
"Cousin, I want to eat." Ma Xingfei grabbed Sang Rong's hand hard.
Sang Rong swallowed hard and looked away depressedly, "I thought too, we can't eat."
"Why! Go apologize to them and admit it. Wrong, they will give it to you!" Ma Xingfei pushed Sang Rong.
Sang Rong tried his best to hide back, "Cousin, don't embarrass me! It was so ugly before, and the people in Dongmen Village wanted to tear me alive. Now, in the past, I would only be humiliated, and They have a large number of people, what advantage can we get? "
A lot of people came to Sangjia Village, but because of the fireworks and Lin Biao, the people in the village didn't believe their family for a long time, and they even wanted to wait. Expelling them from Sangjia Village, if there is a conflict, no one will stand up for him.
Thinking of this, Sang Rong couldn't help but feel melancholy. He glanced at Su Sheng who was chatting in the crowd, and wondered if he had married Su Yan, would there be someone to accompany him and take care of him now?
The more I think about him, the more I regret it.
But Ma Xingfei beside him didn't give him a chance to think about it at all, and started to think about something else.
Shen Yi and his party naturally knew that the things they brought were eye-catching, so they naturally came together as soon as they set out on the road. Twenty or thirty people were equipped with the same equipment, plus they were well-raised and each one was strong and strong. There is really no one in the team who dares to provoke them. It is just a small move and cannot be put on the stage.
Shen Yi saw it and automatically ignored it.
He and the Su Chunsen brothers whispered: "It seems that something happened to the Zhu family, and it is most likely related to the child, otherwise Zhu Yixuan would not suddenly ask about his cousin and the child."
Su Chunsen nodded in agreement, "I heard that his legitimate son is not well. He must be in trouble."
"Whatever, what we want to think about now is how to save our lives. We can rest at the inn later. Let's make a careful calculation, I don't know how the officers and soldiers will arrange for us." Su Chunlin was worried.
Although he is fully prepared, his sword has no eyesight, and he still has to guard against the danger of being trampled to death by a horse on the battlefield.
These words successfully stopped everyone from gossiping.
When they arrived at the inn, they and the people from Shenjiazhuang in Dongmen Village all lived next to each other.
Shen Yi gathered together those people he knew well.
The voice was extremely low.
“I just spent ten taels of silver to find out the news from the soldiers. They said that there is still a round of selection in the military camp. Those who win the clothes (can wear armor and move around) can temporarily stay in the military camp for a few days to train. Those who don’t win the clothes can In all likelihood, they will go to the battlefield and rush to the front.”
"Hiss!" Shen Zhuang turned pale, "Isn't that going to die?"
Shen Yi nodded solemnly, "So everyone must work hard to pass the test, at least not go to the battlefield as soon as they arrive. That will definitely be very dangerous. .”
