Crispy little husband

To be honest, even with Mrs. Yao's guarantee, Su Gaoping and the others still can't figure it out. Ning Wei, a young official from the capital, even if the family situation is complicated, even if he is not favored at home, why would he look at him? Go to their little brother in the "backcountry"?

Regarding this, Mrs. Yao's attitude was very clear, Brother Xin was very good, and Wei'er took a fancy to Brother Xin, which showed that he had vision.

Although Mrs. Yao guessed that Ning Wei fell in love with Su Xin because of the pastry, she would definitely not say such things in front of Su Xin's parents, otherwise she would be misunderstood as Ning Wei wanting to marry Su Xin into the family as a "pastry". Master", but not good.

Under Mrs. Yao's best efforts to match up, Ning Wei and Su Xin finally got engaged. Ning Wei had already given Su Xin his engagement token, while Su Xin's was given to Mrs. Yao by Tang Xi for safekeeping. Precious, it was a golden longevity lock that Tang's father had ordered for Su Xin when he was still alive.

It took half a month to solve the "mess" left by Ning Wei. Mrs. Yao stayed in Chong'an County for a few more days before returning to the provincial capital.

After Mrs. Yao left, Su Xin breathed a sigh of relief, and he had no objection to getting engaged to Ning Wei, but he always felt very awkward facing Mrs. Yao at the moment, so it was easier for him to leave after the old lady left.

But after Su Xin was questioned secretly by Su Yu and Tang Xi at home, he had a bold idea—go to the border to find Ning Wei.

Su Xin thinks that he has a good feeling for Ning Wei, but this good feeling is not enough for him to make up his mind to spend the rest of his life with Ning Wei.

If he wanted to determine whether the two of them were suitable, he felt that if he spent more time with each other, he would be able to tell.

Another point is that although Su Xin is now a brother, and he has indeed fallen in love with a man, he does not actually see himself as a brother in his heart. He is curious about the battlefield of this era and wants to see it.

Of course, Su Xin didn't think too wildly, if he didn't know anyone at the border, or if the people he knew were just Xiao Xiami, he wouldn't dare to go. After all, swords have no eyes, and his small body is not enough for others to kill.

Now, he and Ning Wei are betrothed. Besides Ning Wei, there is Mrs. Yao's second son on the border, who is also a big general at the border.

If Su Xin really encounters something at the border, he can find someone to help. If he misses this village, the shop will be gone. He wants to see it, and maybe he can help.

However, Su Xin knows the cruelty of war, and he also knows that the medical conditions in this era are not good enough, so he is not sure whether he should go or not.

After struggling at home for a while, the hottest weather slowly passed. After the autumn harvest was completely completed, Su Xin made a decision to go!

Su Xin knew that his decision was very selfish, because he only considered himself and did not consider the feelings of the rest of the Su family. They would definitely be taken aback by his bold decision.

After all, it is not easy to travel far at such a time, not to mention that he still ran to the border, that is where the war is going on, and who can tell what will happen in the chaos.

In fact, Su Xin went to the border at this time and indirectly cheated Ning Wei. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, he must have gone to the border at this time for his fiancé Ning Wei.

Tang Xi and Su Gaoping have always complained about Ning Wei because of the criminal record of "private life". To please my father-in-law and husband-in-law.

Thinking about it, Su Xin's cheeks suddenly turned red, he still hasn't decided whether to marry Ning Wei, his father-in-law and husband-in-law are all gone!

After making a decision, Su Xin began to prepare quietly.

Su Xin has a lot of private money in his hands, and his private money comes from Tang Dong. As a technical consultant for Tang Ji's various snack formulas, every time he makes a new candy snack, he can get it from Tang Dong. To a large sum of money, in the past six months, various people have saved 200 taels. He has nothing to spend on weekdays, and this part of the money has basically not been touched.

Only Tang Dong knew the exact amount of this money, neither Su Gaoping nor Tang Xi knew.

Taking out the small box where the money was hidden under the bed, Su Xin poured all the money on the table and began to count the money.

Su Xin hadn't carefully counted her savings before, but she found that there were quite a lot of them. The silver ingots were almost all given by Tang Dong, and the broken silver was basically saved in the Su family.

Nine ten taels of silver ingots, eighteen small silver ingots of five taels of silver, fourteen small silver ingots of twenty taels, and a pile of broken silver coins. Su Xin roughly estimated that there should be about ten taels of broken silver. Just silver, there are close to 220 taels.

Besides the silver, Su Xin also opened his jewelry box to see what was inside.

This time he wanted to go out secretly without telling his family members, it was impossible to ask them for money, the so-called poor family got rich, he still wanted to prepare more money for himself when he was away from home, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with anything.

Normally, Su Xin didn't like to wear hairpins, hairpins, bracelets and chains on his head or hands, so he didn't know what was in the box, but he was pleasantly surprised when he saw it.

There are two jade hairpins, although the quality of the jade looks average, but the style Su Xin thinks is quite simple and elegant, he doesn't think it is fancy, let him use it well.

There is a silver hairpin, probably because he is a brother. This silver hairpin is also simple, without complicated patterns, but Su Xin likes jade more than silver, and it looks more spiritual.

In addition, there are four silver bracelets, two of which look like they were worn by children. They should have been worn by him when he was a child. The other two silver bracelets were given by Dong Dong on Su Xin's birthday this year. They are a pair. Su Xin weighed them After a while, it is estimated that there are three or two types in total, which is not very light.

All that was left were gadgets, such as hair ties, he looked at them and put them away.

In fact, Su Xin remembers that the little "Su Xin" should have a few gold jewelry, such as the longevity lock used as a confidant, but it is probably because gold jewelry is more expensive than silver jewelry, and most of them were bought by his parents in the Tang family when he was young. , so now Tang Xi helps him keep them.

Gathering together the things that could be used, Su Xin began to plan.

He only planned to bring one jade hairpin. In the early stage, he planned to pretend to be a rich young master. It would be more convenient to wear men's clothes. He would use jade hairpins for his headgear, which is low-key and stylish.

I don’t want to bring the other jade hairpin. Although jade is valuable, if you take it to a pawnshop when you need money urgently, it won’t be worth much money, and jade is fragile, so it’s not worthwhile to carry it.

As for the silver, after thinking about it for a while, Su Xin decided to exchange 150 taels of silver for bank notes, and 50 taels of silver for five taels of gold to carry with her. Take it with you on the go.

After tidying up her things, Su Xin took advantage of Tang Xi and Su Yu's time to go to Buzhuang, disguised herself and went out quietly.

I found three different bank exchanges for the bank notes, two for 50 taels, and five for ten taels.

Silver was exchanged for gold, and Su Xin went to the largest gold and silver shop in the county to exchange a bag of golden beans and two stacks of gold leaves.

After changing these things, Su Xin went to buy two ordinary men's clothes, a pair of men's shoes, and went home with a big burden.

After buying the things, Su Xin began to make formal preparations. Although his craftsmanship is not very good, he can still do simple stitches.

He sewed the golden beans on the upper and lower sides of the belt tightly. Although this caused the belt to warp a little, but because the belt was hard he specially chose it, and the clothes would be piled up on the waist. It is easy to be seen to hide something.

The gold leaf was taken apart by Su Xin, cuffs, collar, gown hem, shoe soles, anyway, he used all the convenient places to put the gold leaf, so it is not cumbersome and can be hidden well after wearing it.

It was easier to tidy up the bank notes. He found oiled paper to wrap the two 50 taels of silver notes tightly, and stuffed them into the lace of his coat. It is also convenient to use.

Prepare all the money you need to bring when you go out, and there is nothing else to do. Go to the pharmacy and buy some ointment for trauma, and you will be fine.

After half a month of preparations, Su Xin also found out the route to the border. He left a letter explaining his whereabouts, and quietly left Su's house one afternoon when the weather was fine.

Because Su Xin often went to Tang's house in the afternoon and stayed for a long time, Tang Xi and Su Yu didn't pay attention to Su Xin's absence all afternoon. When Su Gaoping came back at night, Su Xin didn't move, Tang Xicai Go to the Tang family to find someone.

Yuan San opened the door and listened to Tang Xi's words outside, and replied strangely: "Mrs. Mu, Second Young Master, he didn't come over this afternoon."

Tang Xi's eyes widened. Just as he was about to ask again, Su Yu hurried over and held Tang Xi back in panic, "Mum, go home soon, something serious has happened!"

Looking at Su Yu's face, Tang Xi's heartbeat suddenly accelerated. He had a bad premonition, and immediately ran to his house.

After Tang Xi left, Su Yu anxiously added to Yuan San: "Uncle Yuan, please tell little uncle to come to my house, there is something urgent."

In the Su family at this time, Su Gaoping was holding a piece of paper, and looked at each line with a serious face. His expression was serious, but the hand holding the paper trembled slightly.

Tang Xi hurried back: "Sir, what happened?"

"Look." Su Gaoping had already read the letter in his hand, and he handed it to Tang Xi with his eyes closed, frowning and thinking about what to do.

Thinking back to what he saw just now, Su Gaoping's hands were clenched into fists. How could he not know before that Brother Xin was so courageous? How could he dare to run out alone, and still go? place.

Tang Xi looked at the familiar handwriting on the letter paper, and his mind was a little dazed. He took the letter paper a few times before holding it in his hand. Just after reading the first few lines, his legs gave way and he fell to the ground.
