Summon players, rebuild Dawei

With the arrival of winter, heavy snow falls in the north, and due to weather restrictions, except for the Lingzhouping rebels and the beggars who still have some small-scale conflicts in the west of the Southwest Kingdom from time to time, the rest of the wars have stopped, and Wei has entered a short-lived peace. Expect.

At the end of November, the newly merged Xianzhou army set off for Miryang.

Jiang Shu learned about this through the forum, and asked Zhang Zifang to help tell Bu Jingyun about the celebration of the New Year's Eve, and asked him to lead the army back as soon as possible before the New Year's Eve.

Time flies by in the busy work, and before you know it, it is approaching the twelfth lunar month. Banners and red lanterns celebrating the return of the army began to appear on the street, and the festive atmosphere became more and more intense. Merchants in the West Market even started a few days in advance. Pre-sale warm-up.

It is said that Qiyan Pavilion was the first to start an event where you can enjoy a [-]% discount by paying the deposit in advance and paying the final payment after the festival begins. When other players heard about this, they spurned the introversion behavior, and followed suit by launching the pre-sale full discount. Such activities, so that now walking on Xishi Street, you can see shop assistants or bosses standing at the door explaining the pre-sale rules to a group of customers everywhere.

When Jiang Shuchu heard about this, he thought it was quite funny. The players probably didn't expect that the full pre-sale discount that couldn't be escaped in reality was still unavoidable in the game.

And just when everyone was looking forward to the La Ri Festival, Jiang Shu received a piece of good news from Xunyang.

——His parents and nephew will move to Miryang for a while.

Since Cui Ming took the post of Yanqiao Yin, Jiang Shu went to Xinyang and invited the two elders to live in Miryang. However, Jiang Ke refused his invitation on the grounds that he was more suitable for life in Xunyang, and took his family with him. Moved from the county mansion to Jiang's Manor outside the city.

Jiang Shu has been to the manor many times. Although the main courtyard is not bad, it is very unpopular because it has not been lived in for a long time. Besides, there are large fields of farmland and mountains around it. It is deserted in winter. Going to the city to buy something It is really inconvenient for two old people who are used to living in the city to take an hour-long ox cart.

So on the day she received the rejection letter, Jiang Shu sent another persuasion letter.

This time he used some tricks. He first explained that he had just assumed a big job, and there were many things he didn’t understand. I'm afraid I'll feel very lonely.

After mentioning these two reasons, and then received a letter from Jiang Ke, the other party really agreed to the matter, saying that he had ordered people to pack their bags, and would take Liu Shi and Jiang Ze to Miryang in a few days.

After reading the letter to this point, Jiang Shu couldn't help laughing, thinking that when facing the elders, she should act coquettishly and show weakness appropriately. Wouldn't the second elder's heart soften now?

He thought that Jiang Xian probably wrote a letter to persuade them to go to Duanmen County, but he certainly didn't expect to use this trick.

However, the parents and nephews are coming to live, and the empty yard in the back house must be cleaned up as soon as possible.

Of course, there is no rush. Although the official road from Xing County to Yanqiao County has been repaired, it is much smoother and wider than before, but the two old people are not as healthy as the young people, so they must not be able to hurry. Walk along the way Take a break, it will take ten days to arrive in Miryang.

Jiang Ke also mentioned in the letter that he has a lot of luggage to bring and the schedule is full, so he doesn't have to worry.

At the end of the letter, Jiang Ke mentioned another matter that had nothing to do with what he said before. He said that he had recently received a letter from his colleagues in Beijing and China stating that the Southern Wu Yin family intended to marry them. Not a side branch, but the two prostitutes of Shang Shu Zuo Pu She Yin Shen.

Seeing the marriage at first, Jiang Shu thought it was the same as before, coming to matchmaking for his "older" second brother, and there was a hint of joy in his heart like watching gossip, until he read the word "sister" at the end , he suddenly realized that there is actually something about him in it!

For a while, Jiang Shu's mood became extremely complicated.

Jiang Ke only briefly mentioned this matter in his letter, saying that he would wait until Miryang to discuss it in detail, but judging from the attitude revealed between the lines, the other party obviously approved of this marriage.

It is also understandable after thinking about it.

First of all, the two of them are barely a good match. Although the Southern Wu Yin family is slightly higher than the Jiang family at present, judging from the Jiang family's promotion momentum in the past two years, it is not surprising that they will definitely become the Northland's second family in the future. a great power;

Secondly, Yin Shen's honest advice against the Southwest King in the court hall has spread across the north and south. With Jiang Ke's upright character, even if he doesn't say it, he must appreciate Yin Pushe's character in his heart, and such a Everyone is in-laws, he must be quite happy;

Thirdly, Jiang Xian has indeed reached the age of marriage early. At his age, ordinary gentry men have children running all over the place. Now it is hard for a suitable one to come to him. Of course, he must try to get in touch.

Besides, the news that the Yin sisters married the Jiang brothers is a good story.

Listed in this way, I really can't find any reason to refuse.

But Jiang Shu knew that it was impossible for him to marry a wife so early, not to mention the topic of mutual affection, his own body is not yet twenty, so how old is the younger sister that the Yin family is going to promise him? small?

If a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old is still a junior high school student in modern times, who would dare to do this, it's against the law!

Therefore, he must refuse his own marriage, but how to make everyone happy is a problem.

To put it a bit more utilitarian, the Yin family chose their Jiang family to marry because of his current position as the governor of Xunzhou. If his attitude affects Jiang Xian's marriage, it would be a bit unpleasant .

Putting away the letter, Jiang Shu sighed slightly. Facing the official document for the next afternoon, the matter of marriage would come to mind from time to time, but after thinking for a long time, she still couldn't think of a perfect solution.

The work that day was relatively leisurely, and when the time came, Jiang Shu got off work on time, planning to think about it after returning home.

Putting on the cloak handed over by Zi Ming, he led two guards back to the back house against the cold winter wind, but when he turned the corner of the corridor outside the door, he happened to run into Xie Min who had also just got off work.

The twilight was blurred, and the breeze was shaking the branches and leaves of the camellia bushes beside the corridor, and it was also blowing gently on Fang Zhibai's white robe.

Facing Xie Yin's calm and quiet eyes, Jiang Shu suddenly felt a clear and clear emotion, and he quickened his pace and said, "What a coincidence, Brother Xie."

Xie Yin nodded, but the first sentence at the beginning was to ask: "My lord, is there something to worry about?"

Jiang Shu couldn't help but took a deep breath, and said, "Are you good at reading minds, why can you always see through my mind at a glance?"

In fact, just before Jiang Shu raised his eyes and saw him, Xie Min had already watched him from a distance for a moment.

But he didn't answer, just raised his lips and smiled calmly.

Seeing his mysterious appearance, Jiang Shu didn't ask any more questions.

Then he remembered that the last time Kong's family came to kiss, Xie Min solved his troubles for him, so he told him what Jiang Ke had mentioned in the letter.

"What do you think?" Xie Min asked after listening.

"I don't want to marry a wife yet, but my father seems to be quite satisfied with this marriage, and I can't spoil my brother's marriage because of me, so that's why I'm worried." Jiang Shulue sighed helplessly.

The cold air on the porch was overwhelming, but in order to talk, the two of them just walked forward at a leisurely pace.

"I heard that the girl from the Yin family is both virtuous and beautiful, and she has a very beautiful appearance. It is a pity to refuse this marriage."

"No matter how beautiful it is!"

"Why?" Xie Min turned his head and asked as if puzzled.

Jiang Shu hesitated for a while, not knowing how to answer, finally he could only sigh a long time, and said: "To be honest, I don't like people younger than twenty, so so-called women of the right age are not suitable for me. If I want to marry a wife in the future , it must be because I have a woman I like, as for the other party's family background, I don't care."

"You want to marry a wife?" Xie Min said abruptly.

"Of course, it's just after you have someone you like."

With that said, the two had arrived at the intersection of the courtyard.

Xie Yin stopped abruptly.

Jiang Shu followed him and stopped, originally intending to ask him to go to her yard for a chat, but when she turned around, she saw that the other party was frowning at her inexplicably.

"You want to marry a wife?" Xie Min stared at him and asked again.

Being asked such a serious question by him, Jiang Shu was momentarily confused, and replied uncertainly: "It should be."

Hearing this, the other party's handsome face was suddenly covered with a faint shadow.

Jiang Shu was puzzled by the reproachful eyes he cast as if he was looking at a lover. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly remembered something and said, "Brother Xie, you must have heard of that rumor too, right?"

"What rumor?"

"That's it. I have a crush on the rumor that I admire Xun Rongyue."

"Isn't it?"

"Of course not, there is a misunderstanding!" Jiang Shu unconsciously raised her voice, and finally understood what happened to the other party's sudden change of attitude.

Apparently, Xie Yin regards him as the kind of scumbag who wants to marry a wife and delay other women's lives even though he knows he is a broken sleeve.

He found it funny and helpless, and quickly explained: "At that time, I was young and ignorant, and I mistook admiration for liking, but it was not. For Xun Rongyue, I only admired his personality and had no other thoughts."

After the words fell, Xie Min's expression was obviously stunned, and it took a long time before he opened his mouth and said: "Is this true?"

"Really." Jiang Shu replied decisively.

"Then I..." Xie Min hesitated to speak.

"What?" Jiang Shu asked.

I don't know if it was because of the gloomy sky in the evening, but he suddenly noticed that the face of the other party looked extremely pale at this time.

Relatively silent for a while, Jiang Shu couldn't help but said: "It's cold and windy outside, brother Xie, why don't you go to the courtyard with me to talk in detail?"

Xie Yin said nothing, just watched him quietly.

He saw the innocent and doubtful gaze shining in the young man's brown eyes, this gaze was even colder than the biting cold wind, leaving a clear sting in his heart.

Realizing that if the stalemate continued, it would be impossible for him to lose his composure, Xie Yin pursed his lips, returned to an elegant and upright posture, and said calmly: "My lord is aware of what worries me, if he is fine , I will go back to the house first."

Jiang Shu sensed his displeasure, but she didn't know what caused his displeasure, so she couldn't help calling "Brother Xie" in confusion.

The other party turned around and walked towards the bleak courtyard surrounded by dead trees in winter without stopping. His footsteps were hurried, and his back was not seen after a while.

·

Not long after returning to the house, twilight completely enveloped the courtyard.

The cold wind whistled against the window, and under the dim sky, soft white snow suddenly fell profusely.

Xu Hai closed the door and windows tightly, and signaled the servants to light more lights in the house.

Seeing that Xie Min sat in front of the desk as soon as he came back, his face was dark and gloomy, he seemed to have encountered a great difficulty, and he didn't know what to do, so he brought a red-hot charcoal basin and put it aside, and said cautiously : "Lang Jun, it's snowing."

Xie Yin raised his eyes suddenly, turned his head and looked at the door firmly.

Just when Xu Hai thought he would get up and go out to see the snow scene, he heard the other party say coldly: "Call Xie Shi over here."

Xu Hai swallowed his saliva, and quickly responded with "No".
