Chapter 63 Qi Ming
"This this"

Sitting on the side, Mrs. Zhou looked at Mrs. Qi with a look of bewilderment. She either said that Niu Ju was not good, or Mrs. Zhou felt that Qi Zhang of her family married Niu Ju, which was not so interesting.

The Qi family was used to such a beauty as Sheng Jiaojiao, so Niu Ju couldn't help but look down on her.

Moreover, the Qi family has big ideas, and the matter of marriage, starting from Mrs. Qi, has made their own decisions.

The old lady Qi also felt a little abrupt, she paused, forced a smile and said:
"Naturally, Da Lang of my family is interested in Niu Ju. It's just that this child has a big heart. We don't know what's going on in his mind. If you don't turn around, I'll ask Da Lang what he means?"

"also."

Xiong Lin smiled, and asked a few more questions about Qi Dalang's current situation in the army, and as she talked, she somehow reached Tan Ji's head.

In fact, Sheng Jiaojiao had been standing under the eaves of the corner of the hall, and she hadn't left yet.

Hearing that Xiong Linming was secretly inquiring about Tan Ji's development again, Sheng Jiaojiao didn't want to listen anymore.

Niu Ju is a good girl, whether she is married to Qi Zhang or Tan Ji, she will take care of her husband and children, and take good care of the whole family without complaint.

What the sons of Zhishou County need is a simple and honest woman like Niu Ju, who doesn't have much thoughtfulness, and has a thin waist and a big butt.

So at Niu Ju's house, several groups of matchmakers have come to propose marriage.

But Niu Ju is a person after all, who she will marry or not, can't she choose herself?

I must ask Xiong Lin to inquire about this and that.
Sheng Jiaojiao turned around and was about to leave.

Suddenly, in the main room, Xiong Lin couldn't hide her complacency, and said to Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Qi:
"Yesterday, Mrs. Tan sent two pieces of bacon to our house. The inside and outside of the conversation were all about our Niu Ju. I thought, Mrs. Tan is going to propose to Tan Dalang."

Tan Ji is going to marry Niu Ju?
Sheng Jiaojiao under the eaves was stunned for a moment, she remembered that outside Tan's house that day, she had heard Mrs. Tan ask Tan Ji what she thought of Niu Ju.

But Tan Ji also refused at that time.

Not only did he not want to marry Sheng Jiaojiao, he also didn't want to marry Niu Ju.

I didn't expect this to be a kiss.

Sheng Jiaojiao went back to her room, stared blankly at the black cloth in her hand, after thinking for a while, she still shook out the cloth and drew two shoe uppers.

After a while, Miss Qi came into the house with a box of needles and thread, and said:
"Jiao Jiaoer, you said you wanted to make two pairs of shoes, but I brought you the needle and thread, can you do it?"

"Is not likely to."

Sheng Jiaojiao told the truth, she took out a pen and paper, drew a simple shoe shape, and showed it to Miss Qi,

"So I made a pair, just for the big brother."

In her previous life, she was an empress. Apart from currying favor with the emperor and making one or two seasons of clothes for Yin Ze every year, she never touched needlework.

Of course, for the one or two seasons of clothes she made, she sewed two stitches with her own hands for appearance, and the rest were all made by the palace servants under her hands.

She asked A Niang for a piece of black material, and wanted to make a pair of shoes for Qi Zhang and Tan Ji.

It was also to thank Tan Ji for giving Qi Rong Ao Dog.

But Tan Ji was about to make a kiss with Niu Ju, and it would not be suitable for her to make shoes for Tan Ji.

What if Niu Ju misunderstands in the future?
So Sheng Jiaojiao temporarily changed her mind and only made shoes for Qi Zhang.

That's good, she doesn't know how to make shoes anyway, so she doesn't have to work hard.

Miss Qi stretched out her fingertips angrily, poked Sheng Jiaojiao on the head, and reprimanded half-truthfully:
"You just want to make one out of one, let me do it, don't you finish one and don't do the other, I still have to do it, the two stitches are different."

After finishing speaking, Miss Qi took away the black cloth, needlework and the shoes she had drawn in front of Sheng Jiaojiao.

Sheng Jiaojiao curled her lips, turned around, picked up a book from the kang and continued reading.

On the second day, early in the morning, Niu Ju led her father's old horse, carrying two large baskets, and waited outside Qi's house before dawn.

Qi Rong has finished practicing swords, picking apples, cutting vegetables, and picking herbs.
He is doing these things more and more easily now, without asking anyone in the family to help.

The weather seemed to be getting colder. The Qi family was busy working in the fields, selling apples everywhere, and patrolling the militia. Mrs. Qi and Miss Qi were busy making winter clothes, and no one had the time to help Qi Rong.

Everyone has their own things to do, and the Qi family didn't stay at home and do nothing because Qi Zhang came back with money and Sheng Jiaojiao's business improved again.

Seeing Qi Rong dragging a cart from behind Qi's house, he was about to go into the front yard to fetch mules.

Niu Ju went forward and helped Qi Rong push a cart together.

Seeing Sheng Jiaojiao walking out with a stack of books, Niu Ju asked:

"Jiaojiao, what are you doing with the book?"

"I"

Sheng Jiaojiao originally wanted to say that she would give it to Tan Ji, but after thinking about it, it is better not to tell Niu Ju, lest Niu Ju misunderstand.

Then he changed the subject and explained:
"Let the four brothers bring it to my big brother."

"Brother Zhang, isn't he coming back today?"

Niu Ju blinked her bright black eyes, looking innocently at Sheng Jiaojiao.

Qi Rong, who had led the mule out beside him, looked at Niu Ju strangely,

"How do you know that my big brother is coming back today?"

"I remember he rests at this time every month."

Niu Ju's face turned red, she became uncomfortable, and to cover up, she hurriedly said:

"Hurry up and pack the apples. I'm afraid there will be a lot of people in today's episode. Apples must sell well."

Sheng Jiaojiao turned around, lifted the black cloth on the cart, put the stack of books in the vegetable basket, and counted the time in her head, it seemed that it was true, Qi Zhang would take a rest from the military camp on this day every month go home.

It's just that neither she nor Qi Rong remembered it, nor did anyone in the Qi family, but Niu Ju remembered it clearly.

Qi Rong turned around and went to the backyard again, carrying a basket in one hand, and brought out two baskets of apples from the vegetable field in the backyard, and unloaded the empty basket from the old horse for Niu Ju, and put the basket full of apples, Re-tie on both sides of the old horse.

Sheng Jiaojiao took a deep look at Niu Ju, didn't say anything, but told Niu Ju and Qi Rong to go back early and watch them go out.

From the beginning to the end, she never mentioned the stack of books in the basket.

Qi Rong knew who she was going to give that stack of books to, so she couldn't send it wrong.

Not long after the two left, Qi Zhang came back on horseback.

Coming back with him is Qi Ming, Erlang of the Qi family!
As soon as Da Lang entered the courtyard, he deliberately opened his voice and shouted:
"I heard that the family has sheared sheep? Why don't you wait for me to come back to help?"

After speaking, he took Erlang into the main room.

Miss Qi and Mrs. Qi were doing needlework in the old lady's room. Hearing this sound, Mrs. Qi went out with a smile, went to the main room, and said to Qi Zhang who was eating an apple inside:

"When you come back, don't you know the year of the monkey? Hurry up and measure it."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Qi Erlang following Qi Zhang.

Mrs. Qi let out an "ouch" and shouted:
"Hurry up, come out, we have a rare visitor at our house, it's terrible."

There was clanging, clanging and clanging in the room, Miss Qi and Sheng Jiaojiao rushed into the main room together, when Sheng Jiaojiao saw Qi Erlang who was smiling, she let out a "wow" and burst into tears.

Miss Qi copied the soles of her shoes while running, pretending to hit Qi Erlang, her heart ached, and she said angrily:
"You haven't come back for a few years? Now the vassal state is going to fight. This army is in chaos. What are you doing when you come back?"

The old lady Qi on the side was angry and laughed, and said to Qi Zhang:
"Hurry up, ride a horse and bring back the second lady, and also, go to the militia and bring back my second son, my God, our family is complete."

Come back, come back.

Qi Erlang, who was thin and short when he left home for three or four years, has now grown taller, stronger, stronger, and darker. He is carrying big bags and three mules, and came back full of things.

He smiled brightly, showing his white teeth, touched Sheng Jiaojiao's head with calloused hands, seeing her crying sobbingly, and said:

"Third sister still loves to cry so much, let brother see, she has grown up."

Looking at the old lady Qi again, she knelt down on her knees and kowtowed loudly to the old lady.
"Grandmother, Erlang, the unfilial grandson, is back. Erlang is not honored to return to his hometown, and returned home with rich clothes. Erlang just came back to fight against the people of the country, protect the family and defend the country, defend the frontier and consolidate the land, live up to the entrustment of his ancestors, and guard Zhishou County until death Grandma is disappointed, let the family down."

"Where are you disappointed? Just come back, your cruel mother, why did you send you out?"

The old lady Qi was crying, and hugged Qi Ming who was kneeling on the ground, sobbing.

Back then, she disagreed with Qi Erlang being a salesman's apprentice.

But Mrs. Qi Er said that Erlang has a talent for doing business. He has been living with his brain since he was a child, and he can speak well with his mouth. grew up.

The Qi family must have at least one person who can support the big family.

Therefore, regardless of the objections of her family, Miss Qi Erlang insisted on giving Qi Erlang to a shopkeeper she knew well, and took her to sell goods from all over the world.

For this reason, the old lady Qi was so angry that she didn't talk to Mrs. Qi Er'er for a year, and she couldn't wait to see Er'er even with her.

After crying for a while, Qi Ming still stood up, helped Mrs. Qi to sit down, then turned around and took presents to Mrs. Qi, Miss Qi and Sheng Jiaojiao from the big and small bags he brought back.

He also brought gifts for the three ladies, the three uncles, and the two brothers, and he was extremely thoughtful.

The gift for Mrs. Qi was a forehead embroidered with silk threads and pearls, for Miss Qi a silk shawl, and for Sheng Jiaojiao a pair of four treasures of the study.

Looking at this pair of four treasures of the study, Sheng Jiaojiao couldn't help but her eyes were red
After the massacre in the previous life, the killer set Huangtu Village on fire. Tan Ji led her and Yin Ze out of the killer's encirclement and ran towards the barracks.

The killer chased him all the way, and was killed by Zheng Ling and Tan Xiaojian who had received the news and led troops to the rescue.

Later, Sheng Jiaojiao fell ill in Tan Ji's military camp, and the deposed prince did not dare to easily step out of the heavily guarded Tiaoma Lake, and was eager to return to the imperial capital to report to the old emperor.

Yin Ze then thought of a way, ordered his Yuan wife to pack up his things, and led a group of old slaves from the prince's mansion on the road, attracting the eyes of those thieves in the dark who didn't want the deposed prince to return to the imperial capital.

And let the deposed prince and princess pretend to be ordinary fleeing couples, and go to the imperial capital with the refugees.

In the end, Yin Ze's Yuan wife died on the way to the imperial capital, and the deposed prince and his wife arrived in the imperial capital smoothly and met the old emperor.

Sheng Jiaojiao still remembered that night, the charcoal fire was burning red in the tent.

Yin Ze was standing outside the tent, and Zhishou County was snowing like goose feathers, he lost his temper at Tan Ji's military doctor's shed,

"The high fever doesn't go away. You said you tried your best, so why does she keep having a fever?"

In the heavy snow, Quan Peng knelt in the snow and knocked his head on the ground without saying a word.

He is also from Huangtu Village, Huangtu Village was slaughtered, his home, his relatives, everything he had was gone.

No one knew how miserable Quan Peng was. It wasn't that he didn't want to let Sheng Jiaojiao's fever go down, but that his abilities and medical skills were only so good.

He was angry with Yin Ze's censure, and if he had a choice, Quan Peng would also like to go with Huangtu Village.

Now that you are alone in this world, what kind of home do you want to protect?The home is gone.

What country are you defending?Whose country is defending?

That's why Quan Peng deeply understood Sheng Jiaojiao's pain, and she didn't want to get better.

She didn't think about it anymore.

Quan Peng didn't want to live anymore.

In the tent, Sheng Jiaojiao listened dazedly to Yin Ze losing his temper, and then heard someone report that Yin Zeyuan's wife was ambushed when she passed by the inn, and finally she and all the former slaves of the prince's mansion were spared.

Sheng Jiaojiao, who was lying in the tent, slowly shed a tear from the corner of her eye.

Her cheeks were burning red, and this was the first time she realized deeply that she had really done something wrong.

In order to let the deposed prince return to the imperial capital, Yin Ze sacrificed his first wife. That arrogant and domineering woman has now ended up in a fate comparable to that of Sheng Jiaojiao.

Such a man, such a man, isn't it scary?

Isn't it a mistake to marry such a man?

In the warm tent, a black shadow fell on her body, she slowly opened it, her black hair was loose, her expression was broken, and she looked at Tan Ji who didn't know when she was standing in front of her bed with a dazed head.

His brows were deeply furrowed, his eyes looked at the weak and helpless Sheng Jiaojiao, he opened his mouth, and in the end silently took out a burnt wooden box.

"this box"

When Sheng Jiaojiao saw the box, she became very excited, and she struggled to sit up.

Tan Ji knelt on one knee in front of her couch, and brought the wooden box forward.

In the dimly lit tent, she stretched out her frail fingers and opened the wooden box that Tan Ji was holding in both hands. Inside were the Four Treasures of the Study that Qi Ming gave her when he returned home a few days ago.

"Brother~~"

Looking at the four treasures of the study inside, Sheng Jiaojiao's tears fell one by one, her lips were pale, she looked at Tan Ji, and asked:
"Where did you find it?"

 Is no one watching?Oh, I'm cold.
