Embroidered color and fragrance

Chapter 193 August
"Brother, what's the matter with you." Zhu Xun and Shen Zhan each rode their horses and led the troops on their way. Shen Zhan kept rubbing his eyes, "I've been out of my mind all day."

Shen Zhan hummed, and replied: "The eyelids keep twitching, and my mind is restless."

"Uneasy?" Zhu Xun was taken aback, "Are you going to lose this battle today?"

Shen Zhan rolled his eyes at him, "I can't think of something good."

Zhu Xun couldn't figure it out, so why was he so restless? Suddenly, he thought of something, covered his mouth with a terrified expression, and said in his heart: "Just count the days, Ah Jin is going to give birth, right? It won't be today. Bar."

That's why Shen Zhan was restless?
"What did you think of?" Shen Zhan stared at him, "It's like eating people."

Zhu Xun covered his mouth, stared and shook his head, "No...no."

The more he behaved like this, the more suspicious Shen Zhan became. He squinted his eyes and asked, "Did you hide something from me? Wanwan sent you a letter?"

"How could it be? How could she think of me? If she wanted to write a letter, she would write it to you, right?" Zhu Xun's heart was pounding, for fear that he would slip up, "I think it may be because you are restless. Today is the relationship between Mid-Autumn Festival and family reunion, but you are running around outside."

It was really like this, Shen Zhan was very upset, he had only been married for a month, and left, and he didn't know what happened to that girl.

Today is Mid-Autumn Festival, Bao Buqi scolded him while eating.

Thinking of this, he felt like a cat's paw in his heart, frowned and looked into the distance, and said in a deep voice, "I'll go back when I get to Hamiwei."

It is much closer to Chengdu Mansion from Hamiwei, and it takes almost ten days to run back and forth.

"Oh, it's good to go back...it's good to have me." Zhu Xun said with a smile, "How about I go back with you?" what expression.

The more I thought about it, the more amusing I found it, and I couldn't help laughing while sitting on the horseback.

Zhou Chao and Qiu Rong looked puzzled.

Shen Zhan said blankly: "What are you going back for?" and left.

Zhu Xun pouted.

As the sky was getting darker, a group of people camped in place, buried pots and cooked food, Shen Zhan went to the back camp, Lao Du sighed when he came over, and said with a mournful face: "Master, this ration is not enough for one meal."

A few days ago in Shanxi, they sent some food and grass, and they only saved a few days by saving food and clothing.

"How about we just camp here?" Old Du hesitated for a moment, and said, "I also want to remind the court that this meal is not allowed, so how can we fight, whoever wants to fight will fight."

Shen Zhan said with a dark face: "Are you here for the court?" After a pause, he said: "First cook, and then think of a way after this meal."

He walked out with his hands behind his back, walked a few steps, and said, "Don't bring me my meal, I'll save a meal, and I won't die of hunger."

"It's okay if you don't eat it." Lao Du chased after him, "I haven't seen green in a long time, and you will feel dry and uncomfortable if you eat those meat all at once."

Shen Zhan waved his hand and looked at the position of the closed wall. After the Yuan people entered the customs, a lot of the closed walls along the line were removed. Later, they were driven away, and the walls here were rebuilt, so many places looked like new ones. of.

"I'll find a way." He said as he walked away, Lao Du scratched his head and sighed, and waved his hands to chase the gang leader, "Go to work, everyone is waiting for dinner."

Being able to cook, everyone immediately became happy, and shouted in unison: "Steam the steamed buns, today's ration, one steamed bun per person is probably enough."

"One steamed bun is not enough to eat." Someone muttered: "I don't know what to eat tomorrow, so I have to eat tonight."

Lao Du roared: "I just know how to eat, I will feed you to death." After a while, he said: "Cook pimple soup, even eat and drink to feed your stomach."

Everyone nodded, "Start a fire, boil water, and cook!"

For a while, the surrounding area became lively, and the soldiers who heard that there was pimple soup to eat tonight danced and danced.

"Brother." Zhu Xun just washed his face, the wind blowing on his face was very cold, "This is too aggrieved, maybe you are fighting in front, and you have to free up your hands to manage food and grass. What kind of shit is this?"

Shen Zhan didn't speak.

"Stop fighting," Zhu Xun clasped his hands together and crouched on the ground angrily, "We can negotiate a peace, if we drag it on like this, we won't be killed by the enemy, but we will starve to death."

Shen Zhan kicked him, "Get out! I don't have any ideas, I just want to complain. Would you like to make peace with me?"

"I..." Zhu Xun sniffed his nose and muttered, "I don't want to."

Unwilling to talk so much nonsense, Shen Zhan didn't bother to talk to him, so he pulled him up and led his own horse, "Go, go ahead and find out about the military situation."

The scouts went back and forth, they were only sixty miles away from the enemy's barracks, and they should be able to see each other by going around this area.

"What are you doing?" Zhu Xun suddenly became excited, "Are you going to kill Nurhachi?"

Shen Zhan rolled his eyes at him, "Wan Jun took the head from it, can you do it?"

"Just think about it." Zhu Xun chuckled, "Go, I'll go with you."

The two rode forward silently through the night. After walking for an hour and a half, they saw bright lights ahead. Zhu Xun said excitedly, "It's them, it must be them. Inside, how about we do it tonight and catch him off guard?"

Shen Zhan didn't speak. He rode around and stared at the barracks. After a while, he said in a low voice, "Okay, go back and order troops."

Zhu Xun followed behind, did not understand and rushed to catch up, Shen Zhan speeded up, "Surprise attack tonight."

Zhu Xun let out an ah, very surprised, "It's... really come."

"Let you be the master for a while, you lead the army tonight, and I will come back." Shen Zhan said.

Zhu Xun didn't recover for a long time, and the two returned to the barracks very quickly. Shen Zhan ordered 8000 people, [-] charged, [-] copied to the left, and [-] blocked the right wing. The horseshoes were wrapped in cotton cloth and walked slowly in the night.

Nurhachi is in the battalion commander at the moment, there will be fog in the second half of the night, and the dew will be heavy, and Shen Zhan's army rations may be difficult to support again. He is going to wait another three days to surprise the opponent.

"Wang, they are very close today, they won't suddenly come to fight at night?" His subordinate said.

Nurhachi waved his hand and said, "Probably not. Shen Zhan never marches forward aggressively. He will not take the initiative to fight when he has no rations and the army's morale is unstable." For so long, he and Shen Zhan have known each other a little up.

"It's Xu Liren who died." Nurhachi was slightly annoyed, "We can't even find out about the military situation now."

If not, he will know exactly when the other party will deliver the food and how long the food will last.

"Follow the plan in the second half of the night. I will intercept it here. You take people to attack Yulin, and you are about to break the city." Nurha Chidao: "Give them a blow, I'm impatient to waste with them."

The main thing was Shen Zhan. If there was no Shen Zhan, no one would be able to stop him, even those idiots of Da Zhou.

Shen Zhan wants to be a shepherd!He sneered, "Then let him know what a real shepherd is.

"Yes." His subordinates should be, go back to order troops, divide into two groups and head west, and the remaining half stay where they are to intercept Shen Zhan.

The night is getting darker, except for this barracks, the surrounding area is pitch black, and the cold wind indicates that winter in the grassland is coming...

They miss the season of the year, and if there is no harvest, they will not have enough food next year.

Therefore, even if you can't completely enter the customs, you have to break through the city to grab something.

The snoring sounded one after another, but some of the horses were still awake, hissing and kicking. The soldiers on duty at night were wrapped in thick jackets and tried to keep their eyes open. There seemed to be something moving in the distance. He rubbed his sleepy eyes. Look carefully, the next moment, suddenly an arrow hit his forehead, his eyes widened, and he fell to the ground with a plop.

The war horse had seen too many dead people and was used to the smell of blood, so it only hoofed a few times, then continued to eat grass and dozed off.

Suddenly, a horn sounded, someone shouted, and the barracks suddenly became chaotic, looking for knives, turning clothes, wearing hats...

Before they were ready, 4000 people were thrust into the barracks obliquely like a sharp sword.

When Nurhachi heard the voice, he rushed out immediately, smiled, and said, "Sneak attack today? It's really surprising." He got on his horse as he spoke, and his subordinates came to report, "King, is the person leading the army today?" Shen Zhan."

"No wonder. This is not like Shen Zhan's style." Nurha Chidao: "Could it be Zhu Zhengyan, Marquis of Changxing?"

The subordinate nodded.

"That's right," Nurhachi said with a wave of the knife in his hand, "The guest is coming, we can't be rude and welcome him."

He had already ordered his soldiers to stand by, and at one command, the 4-strong battalion moved together. As long as half of them were there, the 4000 people who rushed in from the other side would be surrounded into an iron bucket. He laughed and shouted into it: "4000 people want to attack me, Zhu Zhengyan, you are too confident."

"I'm happy." Zhu Xun led the army, and Lu Chenghu was beside him. He roared and said, "Brothers, kill one to keep your capital, kill two to earn one, your death is not in vain!"

The weapons collided, and there was a bang.

Nurhachi laughed loudly, and before he could stop laughing, he heard a sound from the right side. He was taken aback, and immediately understood, and said disdainfully, "There are still people on the right side, yes, and they have a little brain."

He sat on the horse, staring at the scene in front of him with cold eyes. After fighting for a quarter of an hour, he saw the people led by Zhu Xun start to retreat. He frowned and said, "Are you leaving?"

This is a bit strange, what can be achieved by rushing in and playing for a quarter of an hour?

"Withdraw." The four thousand cavalry lost three to two hundred, and the opponent was slightly more than this amount, which is not a loss. Zhu Xun said happily: "Brothers, withdraw."

With that said, the horse turned around, tore through the encirclement with a huff and rushed out.

At the same time, the sneak attack on the right also stopped.

"Chasing or not?" He came down and asked, only feeling angry. If he came in the middle of the night and hit him, it would be like scratching an itch, and he would go away after scratching. How could there be such a good thing.

Nurhachi waved his hand and said, "I don't think it's that simple, you send someone to follow to see, so as not to ambush."

This is strange.

"There was a sneak attack on the right wing just now, what about the left side?" Nurhachi thought of something, and his subordinates said: "No movement was heard on the left side."

Everyone was fighting excitedly and didn't pay much attention.

"It's broken." Nurhachi said, riding his horse and running to the left. When he ran to the left, he immediately beat and cursed, "Despicable!"

Their cattle, sheep, food and grass are all placed on the left side and guarded by people.But now the guards are all dead, and more than half of the cattle, sheep and food are lost.

"He starved to death, and he will drag us to the back." Nurhachi was furious, "Chasing!"

The subordinates asked: "Which side are you chasing?" They were divided into three ways, whether they were chasing people or chasing food.

"All chase, divide the soldiers into three groups, shoot and kill." Nurhachi shouted: "It's abominable to steal my food and grass."

The troops were divided into three groups, each with [-] soldiers, and they went out in the dark grassland. They ran for thirty miles along the traces left by the former army. When the three armies converged, when they looked up, they saw densely packed enemy troops in front of them. Shen Zhan The person with him is waiting leisurely.

When Nurhachi arrived, the two armies had already fought together.

The first battle lasted from midnight to noon, and each retreated for [-] miles. Lao Du slaughtered sheep and cattle in the rear, and the scent wafted far away. The rations can last for three or four days."

"It was a worthwhile battle." Old Du smiled and said, "The son of a bitch didn't expect that we would not only beat him, but also rob him of food and grass."

Shen Zhan was also tired. After a night plus half a day, he washed and sat down in the military tent. Zhu Xun wiped his face with a handkerchief, took off his clothes and looked at Shen Zhan with a smile, "Myna, this battle was a joyous one."

"It's your credit." Shen Zhan nodded and said: "Rush in without rush or fear, and exit without rush. There is progress."

Zhu Xun's eyes were bright, he scratched his head and his face was flushed, he waved his hands and said, "Where... how can it be, it's better for you to direct, not to let me mess around."

"I have fought against him several times, and he has figured out my way." Shen Zhan said: "In the next three months, you will command, and we will all obey you."

Zhu Xun was startled, and waved his hands, "I can't do it, I can't do it."

"So," Qiu Rong came in with a laugh, and said, "Master Hou is amazing tonight, let us admire him."

Zhu Xun was so embarrassed that he sat on a chair and drank tea vigorously. Although he was extremely tired, his face was flushed.

"Dinner is ready." Lao Du brought a pot of rice, two plates of meat and a plate of wild vegetables he found, "Let's eat today, we will be full for five days."

Everyone shouted and shouted, and eagerly picked up the food and started to eat. Zhu Xun Hulala pulled out a bowl of rice, wiped his mouth, and said: "This meal is comfortable." It’s something that has never happened in ancient times, and it’s maddening.”

"Okay." Shen Zhan said: "Eat what you have, and starve if you don't have anything to eat, not so delicate."

After Zhu Xun hummed a few words, he also complained. He believed that Zhao Zhiang didn't want to lose them when it came to food.

"Take a break for two days, and hit him again while you're full." Shen Zhan knocked on the table, "Go to sleep after eating."

Zhu Xun nodded, patted his stomach and swayed out. After returning to the tent, he couldn't wait to write a letter to Yanjing, telling Ge Yujie what happened last night...

Eight days later, not only Ge Yujie received Zhu Xun's letter, but Zhao Zhiang also got the battle report. He laughed and said to Zhao Xu, "Zhu Zhengyan fought beautifully in this battle. This boy has the demeanor of his father."

"It was also Shen Zhan who trained him." Zhao Xu said, "Father, did Shen Zhan say to send more troops?"

Zhao Zhiang was stunned for a moment, and said: "No, it's not enough to just carry the grain and grass." He paused, and said: "You urge the household department to send the grain and grass quickly."

"Yes." Zhao Xuying paused before he could speak, and said after a pause, "Father, Shen Zhan still needs to be on guard, just because...he has a strong soldier in his hand and has evil intentions."

This was a conversation between father and son behind closed doors, even Eunuch Du was not present.

"Don't talk about this in the future." Zhao Zhiang glared at Zhao Xu angrily, "You just talk nonsense and slander Zhongliang without any basis."

Zhao Xu cupped his hands, but there was no panic in his eyes.

In Ge's mansion, Ge Yujie finished reading the letter and collapsed on the bed with a smile, and read it again on his stomach, "Lan Xiang, is my father back?"

"Master just came back." Lan Xiang smiled and said, "I'm talking to Madam."

Ge Yujie got up in a jerk, took the letter and ran to the main courtyard, shouting all the way, "Father, father, Zhu Zhengyan sent a letter saying that he won the battle once."

"Father knows." Master Ge said with a smile: "The Marquis of Zhennan asked him to command and lead the troops, but this matter?"

Ge Yujie nodded and said, "Yes. More than 1000 enemies have been wiped out, and the casualties here are less than half of the enemy's. It's really amazing."

"Well, it's very promising. The old Changxing Hou Quan will be pleased if he knows about it." Mr. Ge said: "You write him back, and Chaozhong Liangcao will be sent to Chaozhong Liangcao in two days, and let them stay for a few more days."

Ge Yujie frowned and said: "Father, what you have done is too ugly. They are defending their homes and the country in front of them. You don't have enough food and grass to make people hungry. How can you fight this battle?"

"You don't understand." Mr. Ge said: "The national treasury is not sufficient when you come here, and those people who came to the Lord's Peace are procrastinating. They have tried their best to send the food and grass. If you want a steady stream, you still have to pay for it." It's exhausting."

"These people are too selfish." Ge Yujie said: "If Nurhachi really wants to negotiate a peace, how can he be worthy of his more than ten years of dormant waiting? This is impossible, and it is simply whimsical."

Lord Ge laughed, patted Ge Yujie's head, and said, "It can be seen that some people have read sage books and talk about family and state affairs, but they can't understand it like a little girl like you."

Ge Yujie sat down angrily, but there was nothing he could do.

This year passed quickly, and at the end of the year, Shen Zhan didn't rush back. Su Wanru was running in the backyard, panting and touching her stomach, and said to Zhilan dejectedly, "Why are you still so fat?"

"You're breastfeeding." Zhilan said with a smile: "Eating a lot every day makes it difficult to lose weight. It will be fine when the young master is weaned."

Su Wanru sighed.

"Wanwan." Mrs. Xiao came over with the child in her arms, "August cried, I'm afraid I'm hungry again."

Su Wanru hurriedly ran over, and her son was wrapped in the quilt, screaming loudly, hearing the crying sound was really miserable, as if he had been hungry for several days, but when he got closer, he didn't have a single tear, and his eyes were still gurgling turn around.

"Stinky boy." Su Wanru took her son over, and August stopped crying, looked at her mother, and hugged her arms, she laughed and said to Mrs. Xiao: "Just like his old man, when we grow up, our family will Eaten poor by him."

"It's a blessing to be able to eat." The more Mrs. Xiao looked at her grandson, the happier she became. "How can I starve my eldest grandson."

Su Wanru burst out laughing, went back to her room with Mrs. Xiao, and untied her clothes to feed August. Mrs. Xiao said: "Xianzong sent a letter saying that he might not be able to come back at the end of the year. I don't know what will happen in this battle." It's time."

"I've gone, I'm going to kill Nurhachi and come back." Su Wanru smiled and nodded her son's nose, "You say yes, your father is so heroic, and he will be like your father in the future."

August loosened his food rations, and grinned at his mother with his toothless mouth, smiling with crooked eyebrows, extremely satisfied.

"It really looks more and more beautiful." Mrs. Xiao said: "You still say he is ugly, but I will say how can you and Xianzong's child be ugly."

He was really ugly when he was born. Su Wanru looked down at her son. His eyelashes were long and thick, his eyes were like hers, round and big, his nose was like grandpa's, tall and straight, and his skin was whiter than before. There are many, so tender that people want to take a bite.

Su Wanru really bit her little face, and August stopped to look at her mother in a daze, holding her mouth and shaking the corners of her mouth, expressing her dissatisfaction as if she was about to howl.

"Don't cry." Su Wanru frowned, pretending to say, "I'll bite you even if you cry."

The crying that had just been released stopped abruptly, and August looked at her aggrievedly with her mouth pursed.

"My August." Mrs. Xiao said, "I can understand."

Su Wanru laughed loudly, pinched his little face, and said to Mrs. Xiao: "Mother, how could he understand, he was shocked by me and dare not cry!"

"Don't scare him." Mrs. Xiao said angrily, "I will be timid in the future."

Su Wanru looked dissatisfied, and leaned on Mrs. Xiao's shoulder, "Mother, since August, you don't love me anymore. I'm jealous of my grandson and grandson all day long."

"Why doesn't mother love you anymore?" Mrs. Xiao saw her grandson stopped eating, so she snatched her and hugged her. "Mother can't wait to give you her heart."

Su Wanru laughed loudly, hugged Mrs. Xiao and said, "I gave it to me, and it's also because of August."

Mrs. Xiao was about to speak when Zhilan came in with a smile and said, "Young Madam, the master brought you back a basket of pomegranates. Didn't you want to eat pomegranates a few days ago? This basket is big and red. .”

"Really." Su Wanru became happy, and snorted with Mrs. Xiao, "My father still loves me, mother, I will ignore you."

Mrs. Xiao laughed loudly, and went out with Su Wanru. The two women came in carrying a basket, and the pomegranates inside were all big. Some go, and Sitang Street also sends some."

"Both." Mrs. Xiao smiled and said, "But not as big as yours."

Su Wanru gave a thumbs up, "Excellent." As she spoke, she picked two for Zhilan to peel, and she freed her hand to poke August's little nose, "Son, do you want some pomegranates?"

August groaned, looking greedy.

"You can't eat it if you want to, so grow up quickly." Su Wanru said, "You can eat it when you grow up."

August burst into tears.

"Why are you crying?" Zhou Xian ran in from the yard with Er Gouzi, "Wanwan, are you bullying my godson? Bully him if you have nothing to do."

Su Wanru didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she saw Zhou Xian grab August and hold her in her arms to coax her.

Mrs. Xiao also laughed.

Er Gouzi circled around Zhou Xian, looking anxious, Zhou Xian squatted down to show it, Er Gouzi looked at it with its head poised, and August also looked at it.

One person and one dog looked at each other, and they didn't come back to their senses for a long time.

"It's like not seeing each other every day." Su Wanru nodded and said, "The second dog is about to change hands."

Everyone laughed.

It snowed several times a year ago, and after the new year, Mr. Qiu and Jiao Zhenying returned to Yingtian. The Tianxia Department Store in Chengdu Mansion opened, and Su Wanru began to get busy. The letter from Zhao Zhiang, and the people he sent were already on their way. Can go to Chengdu.

"What are you going to do when people come?" Mr. Miao followed Su Wanru, this shop belongs to his family, so he is also a shareholder, "Twelve people have come, right, once people come, we can't hide the matter between you and mynah Living."

"It's okay." Su Wanru said: "He came to inquire, and we just took this opportunity to let them inquire, and tell Zhao Zhiang what we want him to know."

Su Wanru paused and said again: "The people of Chengdu Mansion also know something about it, who can know our identities, besides, you are the one who runs the department store in this world, who can know who I am." Two sides, let alone twelve people, I leave it to you."

"I...me." Mr. Miao waved his hands, "I still want to study. I am a scholar."

Su Wanru chuckled, and said: "You don't take scientific exams, studying is an amateur, now you want to save money to marry a wife, follow me and work hard, I promise you will save enough money to marry a wife within a year."

"You..." Mr. Miao blushed, "It's not serious."

Su Wanru laughed loudly, "I'll go home and see August. You should do your best. When I leave, I'll leave this place to you." She wanted to leave like May or June, and leave August behind. here.

Mr. Miao couldn't laugh or cry.

When Su Wanru arrived home, August was crawling on the ground, and Er Gouzi followed him, kicking on the ground with short legs, squatting on the threshold, Xiao Linlang squatted behind, clapped her little hands and shouted: "August Sister, come on!"

"It's my younger brother." Xiao Ping'an was very disgusted. Since he knew that August was still a younger brother, he had been here twice. There were too many older brothers and younger brothers in the family, so he thought that August was also a younger sister, which was really disappointing.

Even with that, she didn't like to see Su Wanru either.

"Why are you two young masters here today?" Su Wanru was also squatting at the door, looking at her son, August was smiling and showing four small teeth, drooling, her chubby face, like a doll in a New Year painting.

"It's spring break today." Xiao Ping'an said, "We're here to play with Er Gouzi, not to see August."

Xiao Linlang said dissatisfiedly: "Sister-in-law, August is the younger sister, right?"

"It's the younger brother." Su Wanru smiled and said, "Sister-in-law will give birth to a younger sister for you next time."

Xiao Linlang pursed her lips, looking like she was about to cry, "Sister-in-law is lying, my starling is not at home, so you can't give birth."

Su Wanru stared, pinched Xiao Linlang's face, "Who taught you these words?"

"It's Ping An." Xiao Linlang said, "He said you wouldn't survive alone."

She was going to find Shen Zhan, Su Wanru gritted her teeth and glared at Xiao Ping'an, then clapped her hands and called her son, "Can you please cross the threshold?"

"Wow, woof." Er Gouzi jumped up and jumped out of the door, with a triumphant expression that I can, I can.

When August saw it, he burst into tears.

Su Wanru laughed loudly, picked up her son, and said, "Let's go, let's go to Sitang Street to find uncle and aunt to play, ignore them, they are all bullying us in August, right?"

August choked, looking unconvinced.

"When you grow up, you will definitely be stronger than them." Su Wanru kissed her son and said, "A tiger father has no dogs."

August giggled.

"Your tiger father is working hard." Su Wanru sighed, "I can't get enough to eat, and I have to fight every day to remind me of fear. Do you want to see him?"

August babbled in response to her.

"You also want to see your father, don't you?" Su Wanru paused, "Wait a little longer, he will definitely be back soon."

The mother and son went to Sitang Street in a sedan chair. As soon as they entered the door, August was picked up by Mrs. Lin and hugged. There were a pile of toys prepared for August in the room, and August rolled happily in it.

Su Wanru went to see Master Qiu, she and Jiao Zhenying were packing up, saw her coming in, Master Qiu smiled and said: "The weather is warmer in the new year, Zhenying and I plan to go back in a few days." Then he said: " When August is older, you remember to take him to Yingtian to find us."

Su Wanru originally planned to go with them, but the work in hand is not finished yet, "I'll send someone to take you back, don't be in a hurry, you are not in good health, so you won't be exhausted."

"Yeah." Chief Qiu pulled her to sit down, and confessed: "You should also pay attention to safety. Don't be in a hurry. We need to embroider a pillowcase for half a month, not to mention that you are doing a big job. Three to five years is short, the previous dynasty fought for decades."

Su Wanru nodded, covered her face and smiled, "We are not in a hurry. Now we are afraid that Zhao Zhiang will die early." The feeling that the enemy did not die by her own hands is not pleasant at all.

"When Lord Hou finishes beating Nurhachi, you can start." Jiao Zhenying handed her the tea, "We are waiting for you to enter the city in Yingtian."

Su Wanru nodded, "Okay, I want to hang a red gold signboard for Jinxiufang."

"Exaggerated." Jiao Zhenying said, "Liuli still looks good."

All three laughed.

After a few days, Su Wanru sent Qiu Zhangshi and Jiao Zhenying away for more than ten miles. They didn't turn back until they were out of sight. Zhou Xian followed her and said with a smile: "When will you go back, I also want to go back to Yan It's Beijing."

"Mei Ziqing is still here, why are you leaving in a hurry?" Su Wanru glanced at Zhou Xian.

Zhou Xian glared at her, and said with a smile, "Doctor Mei doesn't mean anything to me at all, so why bother to force others into difficulties. Besides, I'm not embarrassed to see him at all, he's just a friend."

"How is Mr. Miao?" Su Wanru said, "Although he is a little thinner, he has a good temper."

Zhou Xian waved her hands, "I'm not good enough for him, so don't give me some mandarin ducks, I'd better be my embroiderer honestly."

"I'll meet the right person." Su Wanru finished speaking halfway, and then suddenly let out a surprise, and Zhou Xian said, "What's wrong?"

Su Wanru raised her eyebrows towards the side of the road, and saw a group of people coming from the opposite side of the road, two bullock carts with deep ruts, walking towards the Chengdu mansion, she called the accompanying guards, and asked: "These people have checked? What is the source?"

They will investigate all strangers who come to Chengdu Mansion.

"It's from Hanzhong." The guard replied: "My surname is Hu. My family is in the timber business. This car should be a property of my family. I left my relationship a few days ago and I plan to settle here with my family."

Hanzhong moved to Chengdu?Su Wanru asked: "There is no war over there, and taxes have been increased, why did you move?"

For those who do business, where the business is, there is the home.No matter how nice Chengdu Mansion is, it is still a bit out of the way, not suitable for doing business.

"The tax has been increased by [-]% a year since the year before last. Now it is difficult to do business outside." The guard replied: "It is because of them that the prices of houses in Chengdu Mansion have increased, and it is hard to find a house."

No wonder she looked at the account book, the flow of bank notes at Tongtian Bank was a little bigger, but the amount of money put into the warehouse was [-] to [-]% less than the previous few years. She thought it was because of the impact of Xiao Hanyi's death, but now it seems that it is because of the time. The bureau is unstable and the taxes are increased.

"Let's go out next month." Su Wanru's heart moved, and she said to Zhou Xian, "I will show you the world."

Zhou Xian was startled, and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Go and see all the places with semicolons." Su Wanru said, "Go to Hanzhong first!"

Zhou Xian snorted, "Then what should you do if you leave for August, he will miss his mother."

"It's not good to take the bumps on the road, he's too young." Su Wanru was also reluctant, but she couldn't stay here forever, "Maybe I can go out from there and meet Shen Zhan."

Zhou Xian's eyes lit up, she nodded, and said, "That's okay, I'll go with you."

"Ma'am." Just as she was talking, someone chased him up on horseback. Su Wanru stopped, and seeing that it was Zhuang Yinan's regular follower, she said with a smile: "You came back from another place and went to work for Mr. Zhuang ?”

"Yes, I just came back." He said again: "The letter to you from Second Brother Su and Du Dang's family was entrusted to deliver it halfway."

Su Wanru's eyes lit up, and she quickly took over and opened Su Ji's letter. Su Ji was in Jingzhou and was going to Dezhou in a few days. She laughed and said to Zhou Xian, "Mao Shunyi, do you still remember?" , the Xiang army in Texas."

Zhou Xian knew, "It's the one who came to the capital with Aunt Qian."

"Yeah." Su Wanru said: "Shen Zhan is connecting, my second brother is going to meet Mao Shunyi, he already has nearly a thousand Xiang troops under his command."

Zhou Xian's eyes lit up, she nodded her head and said, "Then shall we also go to Texas?"

"We'll talk about it later." She said as she opened Du Zhou's letter, and when she saw her brows furrowed again, Zhou Xian looked terrified, "What's wrong with Brother Du?"

Su Wanru replied: "Something happened to Zhou Kang. The people who followed him on the boat went ashore and killed two people after drinking and were detained. They want me to go to Ningbo."

"I knew that I would go with Qiu Zhangshi and the others." Zhou Xian said, "It's still on the way."

Su Wanru waved her hand, feeling a little strange, Zhou Kang has been running the boat smoothly, and those people have been following him for not a day or two, and they are fine on weekdays, so why did they suddenly commit murder?
