Rich meat flavor, three yellow sheep.

A small hut with three braziers burning.

Even though it was winter, the house was as warm as spring, and although there was a howling wind outside, it was no match for the raging fire. It was the first time in 18 years that Gu Tianya enjoyed this kind of happiness.

However, this kind of day is really a bit too wasted.

How big is his hut in total?

It's only eight feet if you count it all!

They even burned three big braziers, and the whole house was heated with waves of heat. They even roasted three whole sheep at once, and the whole house was filled with the smell of meat.

This is not the life of the poor, this is simply a prodigal, okay?

At this moment, Zhao Ning's voice sounded in his ear, and he said proudly, "How about it, are you surprised? Hee hee, I told you before that you want to eat meat every day."

Gu Tianya stood on the spot in a daze.

Once upon a time, he quarreled with Zhaoning several times because of this matter. At that time, his tone was mocking, implying that Zhaoning was 'why not eat minced meat'.

However, he never imagined that what Zhaoning said was from the bottom of his heart.

She said that a man should have a strong physique, so he should eat meat every day. He said that a man should be raised to swallow thousands of miles, so he should hold power in his hands.

In order to achieve this, she should have paid a lot. Even if she and the princess are friends, she probably has to give up her face and beg for help.

At this time, Xiaoqing and Xiaorou raised their heads at the same time, and Xiaoqing said: "Before we came here, we advanced to the grassland. Thousands of people swept across the grassland and hunted hundreds of wild gazelles. Among them, three hundred rewarded the soldiers, and the other Two hundred of them were transported to the village. Miss Zhaoning is a good friend of this princess, and I must help her fulfill her request. Gu...Young Master Gu, from today onwards, you can eat meat every day..."

Apparently Xiaoqing started pretending to be a princess again!

Gu Tianya took a deep breath.

He clasped his hands fiercely, saluted solemnly, and said sincerely: "Great kindness, no thanks."

He suddenly bowed to someone, the two young generals were a little surprised, Xiaoqing subconsciously wanted to stand up and dodge, but fortunately Zhaoning hurriedly gave her a signal.Xiaoqing was startled, and quickly sat upright.

Even so, she still couldn't help but explain: "You don't need to be like this, a man should not bend over, Miss Zhaoning is a good friend of this princess, we grew up together since we were young, we help her, just It's easy to do, since you are Miss Zhaoning's... family, then you don't need to see us..."

Unexpectedly, Gu Tianya shook his head solemnly, and said with a serious face: "How can I not thank you for being favored by others? There has never been a reason in the world, let alone take it for granted, otherwise, you will lose your duty to be a human being, even if you have No matter how good the friendship is, if you don't thank it, you will gradually alienate it. That's why I solemnly thank you."

The two girl generals were stunned for a moment, their pretty faces were a little helpless, and they said again: "Actually... Actually, there is really no need to look outside."

Gu Tianya's face was serious, and he turned his head away again and said, "I am a human being, that's all."

His tone was extremely firm, obviously from the heart.

The two girls stared blankly at him, wondering why he was so pedantic.

However, Gu Tianya suddenly took a breath, as if he had an inexplicable emotion in his heart, and suddenly uttered a sentence slowly, almost saying: "People leave because they don't care, and the tea gets cold because they don't drink it."

People are scattered because they don't hesitate, and tea is cold because they don't drink it.

This is really very philosophical.

All the friendships in the world are never taken for granted. If the kindness of others cannot be cherished, no matter how strong the friendship is, it will gradually become alienated.

……

It's a pity that Gu Tianya couldn't predict that there are always some unexpected things in the world. The two young generals treat him so well, it's not because of the so-called friendship.

He insisted on thanking him because of his natural disposition, but the two girls were full of helplessness and didn't know how to explain it for a while.

Fortunately, Zhaoning spoke suddenly, as if changing the subject, only to hear that she was dissatisfied deliberately, pretending to be annoyed, and said: "It's all because of me that they helped you. Throw it aside, what is the reason? Why do you put me aside, Gu Tianya, you, you, hmph..."

At the beginning, these words were just to change the subject, but as he spoke, he actually became a little angry, as if he suddenly felt very wronged, and even his voice was sad.

She turned her head away abruptly, stomped her feet like a petulant, and finally muttered, really angrily said: "Smelly guy, you are so mad."

Xiaoqing and Xiaorou were startled immediately, their pretty faces turned pale for a while.

Unexpectedly, Gu Tianya smiled warmly, looked at Zhaoning suddenly, and said softly: "I should thank others for their kindness. The reason why I treat them seriously is because I can't do what I should, but for you , but it is not necessary..."

Zhaoning was obviously stunned, and subconsciously asked, "Why?"

Gu Tianya smiled warmly again, and said softly: "Because, you are family."

The trace of dissatisfaction and jealousy that had just arisen in Zhaoning disappeared in an instant like seeing the scorching sun in snow. Something was thumping and jumping, she suddenly panicked, covered her eyes with her hands, and said shyly: "Bad boy, it's necrotic... How can you say such a thing? Don't you know that I am older than you?"

The corners of Gu Tianya's mouth curled up, and he deliberately asked in surprise: "What's wrong with me? What I said is the truth! You are older than me, so you are an elder. I should call you aunt, we are a family."

Zhaoning took away the hand covering his eyes in a daze, stared blankly at Gu Tianya, and said, "So that's what you meant by the family?"

Gu Tianya pretended to be surprised again, and asked back: "Could it be that there is something else?"

Zhaoning was more and more stunned, with a look of disappointment on her pretty face, she suddenly burst into a rage, crying and screaming: "Gu Tianya, you are so mad at me!"

She seemed to be about to collapse, she turned around like crazy and wanted to rush out the door, but at this moment, she suddenly felt a big hand stretched out from her shoulder, and then felt another big hand, both of which held her tightly at the same time. catch.

Then, she was held tightly in his arms.

Only a deep voice sounded, whispered softly in her ear, only eight words, said: "Hold your hand, and grow old with you."

Like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, Zhaoning was stunned on the spot.

Just eight words, but like the heaviest and heaviest oath between heaven and earth, it pierced the heart of the Goddess of War, and it was engraved heavily like a brand.

She turned her head in a daze, looking at Gu Tianya's face, she subconsciously reached out to touch it, and had long forgotten to be angry and cry.

She was just dazed, like a silly woman, and after a long time passed, she murmured, "Don't you care that I'm older than you?"

Gu Tianya smiled softly, and said, "The older you are, the more it will hurt people."

Suddenly put his ear down, approached Zhaoning's ear with a smirk and whispered, hehe asked: "Old cows eat tender grass, is this okay?"

"oops!"

Zhaoning screamed, and pushed him away in a panic. The Goddess of War felt her ears become hot, and her thighs felt weak one after another.

Xiaoqing and Xiaorou in the room were stunned, their mouths opened as if they were dumbfounded.

On the other side of the room, Gu Tianya looked at the scene in front of her, and suddenly looked out of the room with a gentle face, her eyes seemed to want to look at the sky, and she murmured: "This coaxing technique really looks like you... "

The voice was extremely weak, like a raving that could not be heard clearly.I don't know who the you she was talking about, and I don't know where the sky she is looking at...

Only in the hut, everywhere is as warm as spring.

Chapter 59 [Strategize, guess the other party]

The old ox eats tender grass is almost a private conversation between husband and wife. A certain goddess of war who once swept the world suddenly turned into an extremely well-behaved baby.

Gu Tianya took her hand, and the two walked to the side of the brazier together, Xiao Qing and Xiao Rou hurriedly stepped aside, the faces of the two girls seemed to be flushed.

At this time, the old lady suddenly spoke, as if smoothing things over: "Gu'er, mother is hungry."

Gu Tianya nodded quickly and said, "Eat, eat, let's eat now."

He is the male of the family, according to the rules, he should eat the first bite first, although he is from a poor family, but this etiquette has always been observed.

But this time Gu Tianya didn't eat it first, but stretched out his hand to tear off a roast leg of lamb, and suddenly handed it to Xiaoqing with both hands, and said solemnly: "In ancient times, there was a guest who said whatever he wanted, but his family was really poor, so the I can only borrow flowers to offer Buddha, and thank you with this roast leg of lamb..."

He didn't wait for Xiaoqing to hesitate, and immediately said: "Princess, don't refuse, because this is my sincere thanks."

After finishing speaking, he held the roast leg of lamb solemnly with both hands, and waited quietly for Xiaoqing to take it with a grateful face.

Xiaoqing didn't have a chance to speak until this time, and said in surprise: "Young Master Gu has already thanked you just now, why do you suddenly want to thank him again? I heard from Miss Zhaoning that the Gu family village has always followed the ancient rules. Meal... uh, when eating, the owner of the house takes the first bite first, why let me eat first? You have already thanked me once."

She seemed to be nervous, so even her words seemed a bit long-winded and repetitive.

Unexpectedly, Gu Tianya shook his head, and solemnly said again: "The thank you just now was for your personal kindness, but now I thank you for leading the troops to rescue me..."

He paused while talking, and then said: "Today's event is full of twists and turns. Although I had expected that Sun Zhao would be very tough, I didn't expect that Mrs. Sun would dare to send out servants. If it wasn't for the princess, you would lead the army." Surrounding the Sun family, I am afraid that what happened today will have a different ending. At that time, we only had 21 people, but the other party had more than 100 families. Once the two sides fight, we are afraid that we will all be buried in the county government."

"They dare..."

In the small room, almost at the same time, there were three women's whispers, and they said in unison: "Sun family of Miyun, how dare you fight us."

Xiaoqing followed up and said: "Today when I surrounded Sun's family with my troops, the whole family was trembling with fright. They were very timid and had no backbone. In my opinion, they were scared out of their wits. We can continue to fight in the future." Then use this method to intimidate other aristocratic families to be so obedient, maybe it won’t be long before you can fulfill your wish, and when the time comes, you will get back all the occupied land and return it to the people of Hebei Road..."

Unexpectedly, Gu Tianya shook his head slowly, and said solemnly: "It's difficult!"

Xiaoqing was stunned for a moment, and asked in astonishment: "Difficult?"

Xiaorou next to him spoke softly, as if wanting to encourage Gu Tianya, Rourou said: "Gu... Gu Tongpao, our Detachment of Women Army is very powerful. At the end of the Sui Dynasty when there was chaos, we even dared to fight Dou Jiande."

"I know!" Gu Tianya nodded, but then said: "But what we have to do now is not something that can be solved by leading troops to fight, but another special kind of struggle."

He paused while talking, as if he wanted to sort out his thoughts, and after a long time passed, he spoke again: "It seems that we won the Sun's dispute today, but I can be sure that we only won A small round."

The three women in the room looked at each other, but none of them could figure out what he meant.

But Gu Tianya let out a breath slowly and said: "When you fight with others, you should think differently. If I were the head of the Miyun Sun family, how do you think I would respond to today's incident?"

The three women looked at each other again, each frowning and lost in thought.

After a long time, Zhao Ning was the first to speak and said, "If it's my character, I don't want to suffer such a big loss."

Xiaoqing followed closely and said, "Me too, I don't suffer."

Only Xiaorou thought for a while, and said: "I might be patient and wait to see if Mr. Gu will make another move. If Mr. Gu only asks for the land once, after today, the flags will die and the drums will die and never move again." , then I will hold back this breath, at most I will stop interacting with each other..."

Gu Tianya was stunned for a moment, subconsciously glanced at Xiaorou, and said with some emotion: "You are a soft-hearted person, but it's a pity that the Sun family in Miyun is definitely not."

He stopped talking, looked outside the door, and said leisurely: "If I were the head of the other party, how could I endure this incident? Returning the land of eight villages is small, but making a bad start is big. As the head of the family, I am responsible for the high expectations of the whole family. If the family wants to inherit and continue, the land is the most important thing. Only if we keep embezzling other people's fields, how can we tolerate being asked back by others. Therefore, today's matter, Can't stand..."

Xiaoqing blurted out, "But we have soldiers, and we have surrounded them today."

Gu Tianya glanced at her, and said solemnly: "It's not common sense that things happen suddenly. It's a matter of leading troops to besiege, but one thing can't be three. Even if we have an army of 20, we can only besiege the family two or three times. Exceeding this number of times will inevitably cause an uproar, because it is not a chaotic world, because the other party is not a chaotic person. The most important thing is that it is easy to push the other party to extremes..."

He paused again as he spoke, and then said: "If my guess is correct, I am afraid that this time today will cause an uproar. Although the other party is only a family in one county, the family in the world has always been against the same enemy. Today we can bring Soldiers going to besiege the Sun family, will they also besiege other families tomorrow, after the other party has this idea, they will definitely fight back."

"How to fight back?" Zhaoning said suddenly, as if he was very concerned about this.

Gu Tianya glanced at her, and said in a deep voice: "First of all, speak out to the court. The Sun family in Miyun will definitely shout out their grievances about today's matter. Perhaps at this moment, they have already passed on the news. It's one, Sun's loss of land in eight villages is a bad start for all the aristocratic families, so they will definitely speak out through the court, trying to suppress this sign under the rules."

"The dispute in the court..." Zhao Ning murmured, then suddenly smiled at Gu Tianya, and said, "You are just guessing about this kind of thing. After all, you have never met those members of the Tang royal family I don’t know if their character is willing to admit defeat.”

"No, you're wrong!" Gu Tianya opened his mouth suddenly, and then said: "I've seen people from the Tang royal family, isn't the person sitting in front of us a royal family?"

He paused for a while, looked at Xiaoqing and said, "Princess has a very strong personality!"

Zhaoning was taken aback for a moment, then laughed again, with a slightly weird tone, and said vaguely: "Even if Xiuning's character is very strong, it doesn't mean that other royal families are also strong? Maybe there are feminine people? Maybe It's a needle hidden in the cotton. If the aristocratic family wants to start a dispute in the court, it may not be able to force the matter down."

Gu Tianya nodded, as if persuaded by Zhaoning's words.

But he quickly spoke again, saying: "The dispute in the court is a first-hand strategy. If I were the opponent's family, there must be a second-hander, such as exerting pressure from the local government."

Zhaoning frowned, and couldn't help but ask, "How to exert pressure?"

Gu Tianya sighed lightly and said, "Control and not sell food."

Zhao Ning's complexion suddenly changed.

Gu Tianya glanced at her, and said: "Hebei Province has been impoverished for a long time, and now it is the cold winter season, and the people's homes almost have no overnight food, so they need to buy food from the family's store. If the family suddenly unite to close the food store, Guess whether our business can continue."

Zhaoning stayed there, her eyebrows tightly knit together.

Gu Tianya sighed again, and said: "So, this matter is a big trouble, but although it is troublesome, I also have a solution. What really worries me is that the family may jump the wall in a hurry."

Zhaoning quickly looked up at him, and asked hurriedly, "Why jump over the wall in such a hurry?"

Gu Tianya stood up abruptly, stretched out his hand and pointed to the north, and said: "Collude with the Turks and go south in a big way. When the time comes, the soldiers will suddenly rise, and our women's army will definitely defend the land and the border. Under the huge pressure, it is difficult to have the energy to fight for it." There is a [-]% possibility of returning to the land occupied by the aristocratic family..."

The three women in the room were all startled and subconsciously stood up.

But at this moment, Yan Jiu's voice was suddenly heard outside, saying, "Brother Gu, are you home? The three little brothers from Tiance Mansion want to come in and meet you..."

The three little brothers of Tiance Mansion?

Isn't that Cheng Chumo and others?

Gu Tianya's eyes suddenly lit up, thinking of a certain possibility, while Zhaoning had a pretty smile on his face, as if he had let go of all worries.

When Gu Tianya was not paying attention, she quietly glanced in the direction of Zhongyuan.

The battle in the court is fought by the father and elder brother.

If the aristocratic family dared to collude with the Turks, how could the second brother's Tiance Mansion sit idly by?

Of the three things you are worried about Tianya, only one needs to be solved, the control of grain sales, and this matter, you said you have a way to solve it...

Chapter 60 [Monitoring all the families in Hebei]

After a while, Cheng Chumo and others entered the door.
