Wife is General Ghost Face

001.

In the early morning of the second day, Li Mu and Li Mu bid farewell as promised.

The two came empty-handed, but they brought a lot of things when they went back. Apart from the red mushrooms in the mountain, the two also found a lot of wild vegetables and other things in the mountain.

Looking at the two people with big bags and small bags, Xu Jun really couldn't imagine the identities of these two people, but thinking that he and Ghost Face General seemed similar, he didn't get entangled anymore.

After sending off Li Mu and Zhong Xiuyuan, the mountain quickly became lively.

After Xu Jun told the group of bandits about the red mushroom in the mountain, the group of people from the bottom of the mountain came to the mountain the next day.

Most of the people who came were women, they were good at doing these things, and most of them had nothing to do at home, so they just came to help.

Xu Jun was no different to this, and after briefly explaining to everyone, he asked them to carry their baskets into the mountain.

September is coming soon, and the number of red mushrooms in the mountains has been slowly decreasing, but even so, with the help of everyone, they still picked a lot.

On the side of the thatched cottage and the house they live in now, there are red mushrooms all around, which is very gratifying to see.

After September, the number of red mushrooms gradually decreased, and the quality began to vary. Compared with the first batch picked earlier, most of the later ones were of lower quality.

Xu Jun dried the two batches of red mushrooms separately, and then wrapped them separately.

At the end of September and the beginning of October, I sent the things out and sent them to the capital.

In addition to giving to his father and those from Jin Qi and Lin Xu, he also entrusted his father to sell the rest.

After the weather entered October, it gradually became cooler.

In autumn, the originally lush mountains and forests have gradually changed their colors, giving them a more bleak look.The dead leaves fell and covered the ground with a thick layer of leaf quilt.

The ghost-faced general said before that he wanted to study medicine, but he failed in the end because Xu Jun took over the matter of studying medicine.

General Ghost Face is already doing carpentry work, and his hands are not empty. Xu Jun was thinking about learning something, but now he just happens to be able to learn it.

Besides, he is a quick learner. When he was in the camp, he also learned how to farm while working as an accountant. In a year and a half, he also learned a lot about farming, which is completely new to him. He is easy to accept.

Medical skills are so broad and profound that it is probably impossible for him to learn them thoroughly, but it should only take one or two years to learn the diagnosis and treatment and prescriptions for these daily minor diseases.

It's just that although Xu Jun's abacus was crackling, half a month had passed, but he hadn't learned anything. It wasn't that he wasn't serious or that he was lazy, but that after autumn he got sleepy after reading a book every day.

Spring is sleepy, autumn is exhausting and summer is weak. Autumn is really not suitable for learning.

Seeing that Xu Jun was scratching his head when he read the book, the ghost-faced general took out the book and went to read it for two days, but his condition was no better than Xu Jun's.

Now that he is not on the battlefield, he does not need to be vigilant at all times. Even the ghost-faced general can't resist the sleepiness of this autumn. After reading a book for a while, his eyelids seem to weigh tens of thousands of catties.

The two figured out a way, urging each other to recite the book, and if anyone couldn't recite it, let the other party draw turtles and dolls on their faces, and they were not allowed to wash for a day.

This method is good, and the intention is not bad, but since they came up with this method, the faces of the two of them have never been clean.

You have a little turtle on your face, and I have panda eyes on my face. They couldn't help laughing when they saw each other.It's ridiculous, but I still haven't memorized much of the content in this book.

The endorsement has not yet been settled, and the field is busy again.

When autumn comes, things in the field should be replaced.Weeding, digging and sowing, a new round of busy farming is coming.

Standing on the mountain and looking towards the city, the field outside the city is different every day, the golden wheat is harvested, the brown land is exposed, and new seeds are planted.

During the busy farming season, there is nowhere to go in the mountains for leisure, so the two of them got up early in the morning and headed towards the vegetable field.

They also planted a lot of wheat in this field, and now the ears of wheat are golden, and the ears of wheat are full of grains and the stalks are bent down.

After the wheat is ripe, it must be harvested before the heavy rain, otherwise the ears of wheat should germinate once it rains heavily.

The two of them took the sickle and moved forward along the sill. The harvested wheat was beaten vigorously in the wooden cart beside it, making a bang bang sound, and large grains of wheat fell into the wooden cart.

After the wheat grains are harvested, they have to go through the windmill, and after the windmill, they have to be dried in the sun before they can be collected.The straw is thrown directly into the field and burned, and the burnt ash can nourish the soil.

The ghost-faced general kept his head buried in cutting the wheat. Halfway through the cutting, he found that the person beside him was nowhere to be seen. He looked back, only to find that Xu Jun had already squatted aside and lit the wheat stalks with a torch.

Moments later, the fire broke out.

Xu Jun squatted there motionless, General Ghost Face walked over, only to realize that he had found two sweet potatoes out of nowhere and was roasting them.

Seeing the ghost-faced general passing by, Xu Jun, who had two dark circles smeared with ink, looked up at him. Seeing the ghost-faced general, he was immediately happy.

Xu Jun couldn't help laughing when he saw General Ghost Face smile, because the little turtle painted on the face of General Ghost Face became alive with his laughing movements.

The ghost-faced general threw his sickle and squatted by the fire, roasting sweet potatoes with Xu Jun.The wheat stalks are overheated, and the sweet potatoes are quickly roasted. If the fire is too high, the outer layer is burnt, but the inner ones are still good.

It was dark when the two of them squatted in the field and finished eating sweet potatoes. They were about to go back after eating and drinking, but it was only when they turned around that they realized that the wheat had been harvested.

The two of them tacitly didn't mention this matter, collected the things and went home.

Autumn is really not a season for doing things. It always makes people feel lazy and powerless, and it is impossible to calm down and do things seriously.

By the time the two finished harvesting the wheat in the field, it was already the end of October, and the weather had completely cooled down by then.

What was originally a slightly cool weather in the early morning and evening has turned into a bit cold all day long.The wind in the mountains has also become extremely strong, especially at night, it is blowing.

The weather turned cold, and the two of them couldn't help sneezing, and then they went down the mountain together to buy winter clothes in the town.

When Xu Lan and the others came, they brought some clothes for Xu Jun and General Ghost Face, but that was only in autumn, and they had to buy their own winter clothes.

It was the first year they settled here, and there was almost nothing in the mountains, so they had to buy things for the whole winter.

After descending the mountain, the two of them were not in a hurry to go back. They first found an inn to book a room, and looked around the first day before going to the streets to buy things the next day.

To spend the winter, in addition to buying a full set of clothes, shoes and socks, the two also need to buy some heaters and charcoal, and besides these, the two also need to buy some jars to go home.

In the past, when they were in the camp, both of them were used to drinking to keep out the cold. Although neither of them was greedy, Xu Jun still thought about brewing some wine for preparation.It just so happens that there are sorghum grains grown by themselves in the mountains, which are also convenient for brewing.

The two were strolling on the street, occasionally stopping to have a chat with the peddler. Only after this chat did the two know that something serious happened in the palace!

The ambiguous matter between the emperor and the prime minister Lin Xu somehow leaked out, and now everyone on the street is talking about their affairs.

Jin Qi is now in his thirties, but he has no heirs, not to mention he doesn't even have a concubine.

A year earlier, the officials in the palace also advised to choose a concubine for him, so that he could give birth to a dragon son as soon as possible, but in the end this matter ended without a problem because of the actions of Prince Jin Qili.

After that, the ministers of the DPRK and China were busy for more than half a year in order to stabilize the newly recovered city.

After finishing their work, everyone remembered this matter again.

Later, the matter between him and the prime minister Lin Xu spread like wildfire and spread throughout Dayu, making everyone understand the reason for his delay in drafting, and at the same time making everyone sigh.

Dayu's national conditions have never been open. Although I have heard of men in Daning who spend their lives hand in hand, it is rare on their side.

As soon as the matter between the two was leaked, Dayu fell into chaos, and there were not a few people who disapproved and cast aside.

The public reacted fiercely, but Jin Qi was unmoved. With a big wave of his hand, he said, "Who dares to touch my people," and the minister was not allowed to mention it again.

After that, all civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty knelt on the ground outside the imperial study, and Jin Qi didn't seem to soften his heart.

Unable to make sense with Jin Qi, the ministers of the court went to Lin Xu secretly, and somehow forced Lin Xu to resign and recommended someone else to be his prime minister.

After Lin Xu's letter of resignation was handed over, Jin Qi immediately became angry.

The people threw out all the officials kneeling outside the imperial study room, and made an oath, saying that as long as he lives, there is only one prime minister in this world, and he only wants this one prime minister!

Jin Qi's rhetoric shocked many people, some hated it and some admired it, but Jin Qi's attitude was tough, and no one dared to bite the bullet and speak again.

This matter has been rumored in Dayu for half a month. When the two of them heard the news, it had happened for almost a month.

According to rumors, after Lin Xu resigned from office, he still doesn't know where he ended up, and what happened to him.

After hearing the news, Ghost Face and General Ghost Face looked at each other, and both saw shock and worry in each other's eyes.

This matter is no more troublesome than other matters. No matter whether Jin Qi compromises or not, he will never get any benefits, especially for Lin Xu...

Xu Jun was a little worried, so he immediately pulled the people beside him to the post station in the city.

If such a big event happened in the capital, his father and mother should write to him, and even if they didn't write to him, they would write to General Ghost Face to reassure him that Jin Qi is his elder brother after all.

After rushing to the post station, Xu Jun asked, and sure enough, someone in the capital gave him something half a month ago.

For half a month, they had been harvesting wheat on the mountain. They didn't have time to come down, and they didn't know about it, so they put things on hold for half a month.

It was a big wooden box, and Xu Jun's family always used that kind of box when delivering things to him.

Xu Jun quickly opened the box, and before he had time to look at what was in the box, he took it out immediately after seeing the letter on the top.

After picking up the things, the two of them didn't care about anything else, so they opened the letter at the post station and read it.

The letter probably told them about the recent events in Beijing, which was almost the same as the rumors outside. The only difference was that it mentioned Lin Xu's whereabouts.

After the incident, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty approached Lin Xu to force him to die. After that, Lin Xu resigned. After resigning, he did not leave Beijing and disappeared without a trace, but nestled in Xu's house.

They played chess and chatted with Xu Lan in their free time, and their days were carefree, but Xu Lan mentioned in the letter that Lin Xu was absent-minded when playing chess with him, and lost a lot to him in half a month.

Xu Lan had someone send those things to Xu Jun.

Knowing that Lin Xu was fine, Xu Jun and General Ghost Face were in the mood to look at the contents of the box.

Seeing this, the two of them couldn't laugh or cry, because it was full of books, calligraphy and paintings, which were probably treasures to Lin Xu, but not as good as two biscuits to them.

After relaxing, General Ghost Face read the letter carefully again, he was a little worried about Jin Qi.

"Don't worry, if something really happens, my father will definitely help." Xu Jun comforted.

Jin Qi admitted that everything he did was not rational, but he probably had his own ideas.

Xu Jun thought for a while, then smiled, "Maybe he has already planned this day."

Jin Qi is already in his thirties. Over the years, he has used various excuses to delay the draft for more than ten years. Maybe he has already anticipated the current situation.

General Ghost Face glanced at Xu Jun and nodded.

Xu Jun stretched out his hand and took the hand of the person next to him, ignoring the surprised eyes of the person in the station next to him, and held it in the palm of his hand.

Seeing this, the ghost-faced general instinctively wanted to withdraw his hand, but was held tightly by Xu Jun.

In fact, he is living his own life, so what does it have to do with those gossiping people? Even if his parents didn't say much, they didn't eat their rice, so it's their turn to talk too much?

Having figured this out, Xu Jun smiled calmly. He pulled the ghost-faced general beside him awkwardly holding the box and led him out the door.

Seeing this, the ghost-faced general clenched his hand, and hurriedly stepped forward to take the box in his hand with the other hand, "I'll do it."

"I can handle it," Xu Jun said.The box is a bit heavy, but not particularly heavy.

"Aren't you going to buy something?"

"Okay!" Xu Jun handed over the box, he will have to go shopping later, it is always inconvenient to hold a box in his hand.

Xu Jun was responsible for most of the purchases, and General Ghost Face followed him every time as a coolie to help move things and lead horses.

002.

The two returned to the street and walked down the street, shopping while walking. When they reached the end of the street, the horses behind them were already covered with bags.

Just as the two were about to go out of the city and go up the mountain, a group of soldiers marched into the city from the direction of the gate, Xu Jun and the others were pushed to the side of the road and stood there.

The two were not annoyed, they just watched from a distance.

These soldiers are familiar to them, because these people are clearly the garrison at the border.

Not long after the ordinary soldiers entered the city, several men on tall horses entered the city. Seeing the leader, Xu Jun was instantly happy.

Xu Jun turned his head to look at General Ghost Face, who had already seen the man.

Sitting on the horse was Tao Chi whom they hadn't seen for a long time.

Tao Chi has been doing well recently. Although the two live on the mountain, they have heard something about him.

After General Ghost Face disappeared, Tao Chi became a general. Besides him, three of the dozen or so lieutenants in the border army also became generals.

The frontier army, which had General Ghost Face in power in the past, has now been divided into several brigades. Although they are still stationed at the original place, their strength has been dispersed.

It is not incomprehensible for Jin Qi to do so. After all, these people have no blood relationship with him. There will be thousands of changes in the future. No one knows whether these people will always be loyal. Dispersing the force at least weakens the potential danger.

I haven't seen him for almost a year, Tao Chi has changed a lot now.

Originally a lieutenant general, he has now become a majestic general, accompanied by several lieutenants, riding the most majestic horse, even the armor on his body has been replaced with new ones.

Xu Jun looked at Tao Chi with a stinky face on the back of the horse from a distance, and couldn't help but snorted softly. He still felt that no one as a general was more powerful than the people around him.

Tao Chi, who had already walked forward for a while, didn't know whether he heard the soft hum or felt something, and turned his head to look at them.

After seeing General Ghost Face and Mr. Xu clearly among the crowd, Tao Chi froze and immediately tightened his grip on Ma Jiang.

The people around him were startled, and they all stopped and looked at him, "General, what happened?"

Tao Chi looked at Xu Jun who was waving at him with a livid face, gritted his teeth and looked back at the lieutenant beside him, "It's okay, let's go."

While speaking, Tao Chi immediately drove his horse forward to speed up, and the large team also speeded up after seeing this.

Tao Chi looked calm, but when he arrived at the reserved inn, he got off his horse. Before the people next to him took over the horse, he took off his armor, turned around and ran towards the door.

After leaving the door, he quickly ran back to the place where he had just met Xu Jun, and looked around nervously. After finding no one, he walked along the street to look for him. It didn't take long before he saw two people who had already left the city gate and walked slowly forward. people.

Tao Chi hurried forward and stopped in front of the two of them.

The two people in front of him were not surprised that he would catch up. After seeing him, Xu Jun even waved to him in a good mood.

Tao Chi looked at the two people in front of him, but his teeth itched with hatred, "General!"

Tao Chi clasped his fists at the ghost-faced general, he hesitated whether to kneel down, this side is still very close to the city.

The ghost-faced general has now changed into plain clothes, and even the mask on his face has been changed to a half-mask. If his kneeling is recognized by others, it must be tantamount to revealing the identity of the ghost-faced general.

"I'm no longer a general." The ghost-faced general said.

Tao Chi understood. He glanced warily at the city gate and stopped kneeling. He followed the two of them and walked out of the city gate for a certain distance before stopping to talk to them.

"Why is the general here?" Tao Chi asked.

General Ghost Face and Xu Jun suddenly disappeared, and when the people at the border got the news, it was already a long time later.

After that, his plan to leave the barracks was completely disrupted, and even because of the absence of General Ghost Face, he was directly in charge of the station he was in.

Two months later, there was even an imperial decree from above, letting him take over as the general.

When the imperial decree arrived, he couldn't resist the decree, so he took over the position of general, and two months later, he wrote a letter and returned to the court to resign the position of general and leave the army.

But it would be difficult to resign from the position of general in the future. He spent five or six months and still failed to resign from the position of general. On the contrary, he secured this position.

In the end, he said cruelly that he missed his family and wanted to resign and go back. As a result, the emperor directly granted him a two-month leave and asked him to go home to visit relatives and then go back.

He had no intention of staying in the camp. Although no one except them knew about the previous incident, he couldn't pass his own test.

Originally, he was the one who should have left the camp, but it turned out to be a good thing, because the two sneaked away first, but now he had to stay.

"We live on the mountain now." Xu Jun pointed to the mountain beside him, and after seeing Tao Chi's face twisted, he smiled and patted Tao Chi's shoulder, "Come and play if I have a chance."

Tao Chi gritted his teeth, thinking about the possibility of setting fire to that mountain.

After General Ghost Face was abducted by Xu Jun, he had thought about many possibilities, but he really never thought that Xu Jun would come to this mountain. If he had thought of it earlier, he would have killed him already!

"I heard that you are already a great general, congratulations." Xu Jun picked up which pot he didn't open.

"It's not all because of you!" Tao Chi gritted his teeth in anger.

"What have I done?"

"If you hadn't abducted the general, I would have needed..." Tao Chi couldn't say the rest, he just gritted his teeth and looked at Xu Jun.

But Xu Jun looked at the man who was going mad with anger more and more innocently, "Don't you like the position of general? This is something no one else can ask for, so you should cherish it!"

Tao Chi was taken aback for a moment, then he heard Xu Jun say again: "It's not in vain for us to speak well of you in front of the emperor."

At that moment, Tao Chi felt a mouthful of blood almost spewed out.

He said that the emperor didn't know him well, so how could he appoint him as a general and still keep him from resigning? It's a good thing these two people did!

"You, I..." Tao Chi was too angry to speak.

Xu Jun blinked his eyes again, patted Tao Chi on the shoulder, and said, "Work hard, we are optimistic about you."

At this moment, Tao Chi couldn't care about the ghost-faced general next to him, and he clenched his fists. He really wanted to rush up and beat this guy up. He always had a feeling that Xu Jun must have discovered that he wanted to Leaving, that's why I sneaked away before him!

Because if he ran away first, there would be only Ghost-faced General left in their camp, and Ghost-faced General would have many concerns if he wanted to leave again, just like he does now.

They have all stayed in this barracks for too long, and this place has become their half home, and it is impossible for them to do nothing and leave.

"Actually, it's not impossible if you really want to leave..." Xu Jun said.

Tao Chi narrowed his eyes slightly, and now he is already habitually three-point guard in front of Xu Jun.

"In a few decades, even if you don't want to resign, I'm afraid people in the court will not allow it." After speaking, Xu Jun nodded seriously, as if he felt that what he said made sense.

Tao Chi didn't react for a while, but by the time he did, Xu Jun had already bullied everyone and ran away.

Tao Chi wanted to chase after him, but he couldn't catch up. In the blink of an eye, Xu Jun had turned into a small black shadow.

Tao Chi was so angry that he turned his head to look at the ghost-faced general, but he saw the ghost-faced general walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder, then got on his horse and left him to drive away.

Looking at the backs of the two, Tao Chi couldn't help but wry smile.

He felt that he must have been a big villain in his previous life, and must have owed too much to these two people, so he was always bullied and played by these two people in this life.

If he sees these two people again in his next life, he will hide as far away as possible, no, no, no, it is best not to see each other until death!

Tao Chi was in a daze, but Xu Jun's shout came from afar.

Hearing those words, Tao Chi froze in place, and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

It wasn't until the lieutenant beside him found him that he withdrew his gaze to the distance in a daze, but Xu Jun and General Ghost Face were no longer there.

Tao Chi took a deep look at the mountains in the distance, then retracted his gaze, turned and walked towards the city.

There was a bit of hesitation in his steps, and what Xu Jun said just now echoed in his mind, he would be a good general, why did Xu Jun think so?

Tao Chi couldn't help raising his hand to his forehead, with a wry smile on his face, is a person like him really worthy of being a general?

003.

After avoiding Tao Chi and going up the mountain, Xu Jun couldn't stop laughing all the way. He couldn't help laughing when he thought of Tao Chi's angry face.

Seeing him laughing so hard that he couldn't stand still, the ghost-faced general couldn't help shaking his head, Xu Jun always likes to bully Tao Chi.

"You're not afraid of making him anxious." General Ghost Face said.

"I'm not afraid, he doesn't dare to do anything to me." Xu Jun put his hands on his hips, "With the general here, if he dares to bully me, you bully him!"

For Xu Jun's righteousness, General Ghost Face became more and more helpless.

"Are you okay?" Seeing that the ghost-faced general didn't speak, Xu Jun hurried up to grab the ghost-faced general's hand and act like a baby.

"Okay, I'll definitely bully you back." A look of doting appeared in the eyes of General Ghost Face.

With someone backing him up, Xu Jun immediately returned to his frightened appearance, recounting the glorious history of bullying Tao Chi in the past, and guessing that Tao Chi must have been very angry when they sneaked away before.

After Xu Jun discussed with the ghost-faced general about leaving, he explained that Sima He would take care of the affairs in the camp, and then the ghost-faced general wrote the letter together, and went to the palace to put the letter in Jinqi's imperial study. Then he left, so now Xu Jun's position has been replaced by Sima He.

Sima He has been by his side for a long time, and he has a good understanding of the management of the accounting room. Xu Jun is very relieved to entrust him with the affairs of the accounting room.

But talking about this matter, Xu Jun still has some regrets, after all, this is his first errand, but in the end it ended without a problem.

All the way to the top of the mountain, Xu Jun stopped.

Whether Tao Chi will be a good general can only be proved by himself, Xu Jun can't guarantee it to anyone, but Tao Chi has a good heart, he can be sure of this.

After October, the mountains soon ushered in a cold snap.

Before the cold snap came, Xu Jun and General Ghost Face armed the house. When the rain came, their house was already equipped for the winter.

The thick and warm cotton wool, the steaming stove, everything has a sense of warmth.

In addition to buying these, Mr. Xu also brewed wine.

Ordinary people's wine making is simple, and most of the wine they brew is coarse grain wine. Xu Jun uses sorghum and corn, which have a slightly higher yield of wine. The two spent some time on it, and saved a few altar wine.

This is the first time that Xu Jun made wine by himself. He had promised the people in the camp to brew wine before, but he couldn't fulfill it in the first year because of the battle, and because he was no longer in the camp in the second year.

It's a pity to say it, and I don't know if Sima He has stored grain and brewed wine according to his previous plan after he was not in the camp.

At the beginning of November, Xu Jun received another letter from the capital, which said that everyone will come to celebrate the New Year this winter.

Xu Jun was very happy about this, after all, he had not been able to celebrate the New Year with his parents for a few years, and the mountain was also lively because of this.

Knowing that they were coming, the two people on the mountain immediately got busy. Winter is different from summer. In winter, they had to prepare a lot of cotton wool heaters to celebrate the New Year here, so the two went down the mountain several times to buy a lot of things.

By the time the two finished their work and arranged the room, the first snow in early winter had already fallen.

This year's snow came earlier than in the past. It didn't take long before November, and the snow fell.

The first snow fell not thick, but only a thin layer. It fell in the middle of the night the night before, and it had already melted when I got up in the morning of the third day.

It wasn't so cold in the mountains when it snowed, but when the snow melted, it was so cold that Xu Jun was shivering, and he stayed indoors all day long, unwilling to go out.

As soon as the twelfth lunar month arrives, there will be guests in the mountains.

Zhuge Jin came first, followed by Xu Ming who ran after him.

The two of them didn't know what was going on, at the beginning Zhuge Jin ran away when he saw Xu Ming, Xu Ming always looked blank, but now it's all over, Xu Ming seems to always like to catch him when he gets excited.

When Xu Ming was about to arrest someone, Zhuge Jin became miserable. Even if he was so light-hearted, he couldn't stand up to Xu Ming's tricks.

Before the two came here this time, Zhuge Jin had Xu Ming put him in a big cage.

Xu Jun didn't know the specific details. He only heard that Zhuge Jin's hands were itchy again, but he didn't expect to fall into Xu Ming's trap. He was caught while stealing something, and then he was carried over.

The two ran and chased, but they didn't know what was going on. Xu Jun asked several times, but neither of them said anything.

Unable to speak, Xu Jun ignored him and instructed Zhuge Jin to help him go down the mountain to buy new year's goods.

After these two people came, people came one after another in the mountain. By the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month, basically everyone had arrived.

26 At seven o'clock, a guest Xu Jun did not expect came down the mountain, and Tao Chi came back again.

He used to go home to go home, but now that the holidays have come, he will return to the camp in a short time, so he stopped by here as he was passing by, and he wanted to settle accounts with Xu Jun.

Tao Chi came rushing to settle the accounts, only to find out what kind of people there were on the mountain when he went up the mountain. He was in the lowest class in an instant when he was aggressive.

It's a pity that he has already entered a den of thieves, and even if he wants to leave, he needs the permission of Jin Qi and the others, so he has to bite the bullet and accept his fate bitterly.

The mountains are bustling again, this time with the breath of the year.

The people in the mountains are all their own people, and the New Year is not so particular. After preparing all the necessary snacks, everyone celebrates the New Year almost every day.

27 In the evening, Chu Yiling said that he saw a fox in the mountains, which aroused everyone's interest. A group of elders carried hoes, hoes and sickles, and scythes, and walked into the mountains, digging many traps. Catch a fox to make a jacket.

As a result, a group of people guarded the mountain for two days without seeing any foxes, but they caught some other wild beasts that came out to look for food, which made them have a few more dishes on New Year's Eve.

On the [-]th day, everyone got up early in the morning and began to help make the evening meal. Even Xu Jun, who likes to stay in bed, was pulled up to help make the dough.

The reunion dinner on New Year's Eve has a special meaning, and each place also has its own specialties. A group of people from different places fought for a round, and finally Mrs. Xu waved her hand and ruthlessly dismissed everyone's opinions.

Everyone was a little unwilling, but because she was the only person on the mountain who could handle the ladle, and the second person who was barely able to hold the ladle was her son, they finally compromised.

Everyone poured into the kitchen to help until evening.

At night, everyone combined the two tables into one, and filled it with a lot of gourmet delicacies.

After they were seated, Jun Xu brought out his newly brewed wine, and after General Ghost Face was opened, a light scent of wine permeated the air.

The wine is new wine, not easy to get drunk, even Mrs. Xu added two glasses.

After eating and drinking enough, some people went to the room to rest when they were tired, and some people sat and chatted inside the house, waiting for the vigil to set off firecrackers.

Xu Jun sat in the room chatting with the other people, and was called by Madam Xu outside the door while chatting, Xu Jun followed her into the room, and went out happily after receiving a big red envelope.

When he went out again, Xu Jun did not go back to the room where he was chatting, but stood on the snow and looked up at the sky above his head.

There is no moon on New Year's Eve, but the sky tonight is so bright that even the clouds in the distance can be seen.

At night, the mountains became even quieter. Xu Jun stood on the snow and closed his eyes and could hear the voices in the next room, as well as the footsteps of the ghost-faced general walking towards him.

"It's cool in the night." Accompanied by the ghost-faced general's voice, came the cloak draped over Xu Jun's shoulders.

Xu Jun didn't look back, he leaned back and leaned against General Ghost Face's chest.

Leaning against General Ghost Face, warm warmth came from his chest, followed by his strong heartbeat.

Mr. Xu never got tired of hearing that rhythmic voice, he was even a little addicted and greedy.

"What's wrong?" General Ghost Face wrapped his arms around the person in front of him, and pulled the cloak to wrap around the person in front of him.

"I'm thinking, what should we do when we get old and can no longer go down the mountain by ourselves?" Xu Jun said.

When they came to live here, they thought that the mountain should be deserted, but in fact, since they lived here, the mountain has not been quiet for a few days.

Years ago, everyone was running up and down the mountain for the New Year.They can still run when they are young, and it doesn’t matter if they run a few more times, but what will they do when they get old?It takes an hour or two to go up and down the mountain casually.

General Ghost Face put his head on Xu Jun's shoulder, and he followed Xu Jun's movements to look at the sky above his head, quietly, thinking about Xu Jun's words.

After thinking for a while, General Ghost Face came up with a solution, "Trick Tao Chi to live here."

"Ok?"

"Let him have a son or a daughter and go shopping for us."

Hearing General Ghost Face's serious words, Xu Jun couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud, "Hahaha, General, you've learned badly, Tao Chi will cry if he hears it..."

However, both of them also knew that it was impossible to trick Tao Chi into coming here, and he also had his family, if one day he really resigned from office, he would be eager to go home and reunite with his family.

The ghost-faced general thought about it again, and he said softly: "When we can't walk anymore, I will lead the horse and drive you down."

Xu Jun rubbed the faces of the people behind him, "At that time we couldn't walk anymore, you led the horse and carried me down, it was so far, if my old arms and legs were tired on the road, wouldn't it be necessary for me to carry it? you come back?"

The ghost-faced general thought about Xu Jun, who turned into a little old man with a white beard, climbing a mountain while carrying himself behind his back, and felt very distressed in an instant.

"Then what should we do?" General Ghost Face asked.

"Hmm..." Xu Jun thought for a long time, but couldn't think of a way.

"Then why don't I drive you down in a carriage?" General Ghost Face thought, when he gets old, he should still have the strength to drive a carriage.

If they really don't even have the strength to drive a carriage, they must be too old to lose their teeth. At that time, they will sit on this mountain and cannot go down.

Two little old men with white beards moved a small stool and sat on the ground and worked slowly. When it was dark, they helped each other and slowly walked home.

If Xu Jun complained that his waist was tired and hurt, he would stop and give him a squeeze.

If he is too old to see anything, he will lead Xu Jun away.

If he dies of old age, he will be buried with Mr. Xu.
