Step on a branch

Chapter 342 Her backbone

In the town where Feimen is closed, the Ji family is saying goodbye to the neighbor's aunt.

After arriving that day, Qin Luan went to the army, and the Ji family and Qin Feng settled down in the town.

Their identities are still the same.

From Xiakui County, Qiyang Prefecture, looking for the wife and stepson of the man who joined the army.

However, that stepson no longer looked terminally ill.

"Don't be impatient," said the aunt, comforting Ji. "Before, we kept fighting, and all the soldiers went to the front. Few of them stayed in the pass. Of course, it's hard to inquire. Now that we have won the battle and everything is stable, we can go to the front again." Look for it, and you will find it.”

Ji Shi nodded: "I know."

Having been a neighbor for more than half a month, the aunt had a good impression of this enthusiastic woman from outside, and said: "The Yushakou was captured by surprise attack before, and the Xizhou City later was taken without a single soldier. If the war damage is small, your family must be auspicious.

Besides your stepson, the old woman looks like an upright and good face, and she respects you very much.

With him here, don't worry about having no one to rely on in the future.

The old lady is leaving now, and I left you the address. If you find a relative in the future, remember to write a letter to the old lady, so you can rest assured. "

Ji said: "I'll take your auspicious words and I will tell you when I have a letter."

The aunt just got into the carriage.

She is from the ancient gate town outside the pass.

Gumen Town was one of the four towns that "Xi Liang" attacked before.

After the war broke out, the people outside the pass left their homes one after another and returned to the pass to take refuge. The small town under the Feimen pass was packed to the brim.

After the imperial court summoned troops and counterattacked, some people who cared about their homes insisted on leaving the customs and had already returned.

However, there are still many people who waited until the end of the war.

When the news of Xizhou City's surrender came back, the whole town erupted.

Some people cry, some laugh, some cry and laugh again.

Ji Shi and Qin Feng were also among the crowd, feeling the emotions of the people around them, and at the same time, their hearts were more excited.

The mission on my own is very heavy and difficult.

But any difficulty in this world is not insurmountable.

Just like boxing, in a whole set, there are upper hooks and lower draws, and changes in fists and palms. They are done in one go, and it looks dazzling. For beginners, it is extremely difficult.

However, actions are all decomposable.

Practice one movement after another, memorize and get familiar with it little by little, and after practicing hard, you can string them together.

It is so difficult to seize the position, isn't it also broken down by the old master every step of the way?

Taking Xizhou is one of them.

Every step forward, they are closer to the finish line.

The army entered the Xizhou City, and then attacked everywhere to clean up the wandering horse thieves. Today, outside the customs, as long as they don't cross the Xizhou City, they are already very safe.

In Feimenguan, a notice was issued calling on the people who were still in the pass to return to their hometowns.

Since the announcement was made in the army, everyone was relieved, and the acquainted fellow villagers made appointments and returned to their hometowns one after another.

The same is true for the lady next door to them. She has completed the formalities and is ready to leave the customs, all the way to the west.

Ji sent the neighbors away and turned back to the yard.

When it was getting dark, Qin Feng quickly walked in from the outside.

The Ji family was about to greet him for dinner, but seeing Qin Feng frowning slightly with a serious face, she couldn't help asking: "What's the matter?"

I have to say that for the past half month, the two of them have been very relaxed.

Close the flying gate, don't worry about the court.

The will was kept by my side, and it was well hidden.

Through Fang Tian, ​​they also got in touch with the old Hou Ye. Although they haven't met each other, they have exchanged letters and know each other's situation.

The only thing to miss is the old lady and others who are still on the way.

This is much safer than the fearful and treacherous ride through various checkpoints in a horse-drawn carriage.

Therefore, when Ji Shi suddenly saw Qin Feng's expression, he couldn't help feeling tense.

"The news was delivered quickly from the capital," Qin Feng said, "Deng Guoshi has been executed."

Ji Shi's eyes narrowed suddenly.

Then Deng Guoshi, is dead?
They won Xizhou, and after the old Hou Ye and Dingguo had stabilized the situation here in the west, they would turn around and head east in the name of the Qing emperor.

Coincidentally, at this time, that side is gone?

"It must be to guard against us!" Ji Shi pursed her lips, "Draw the bottom of the pot."

"I think so too," Qin Feng also said, "Everyone in the town is talking about Mr. Deng Guoshi. I think I have already got news from my grandfather, and I don't know what his plan will be."

The Ji family couldn't guess what Yongninghou was thinking.

And her backbone, Mrs. Yongninghou, is not by her side.

As for the person who can listen to her rambling, there is no one.

The Ji family glanced at Qin Feng.

No matter what she said, she was also an aunt, so she had to hold on.

Taking a deep breath, Ji said: "My lord, the boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge. If the old Hou Ye does not fight unprepared battles, he must have a way."

Qin Feng was startled.

Soon, he also realized that it was the tension in his expression that affected his second aunt.

can not do this.

He is the male of the family, although he has not reached the crown, he is not too young, so he has to take care of things.

That day in Zhuangzi, before they left, the second uncle held his shoulders and told him to protect his aunt and sister, as he had promised.

"You're right," Qin Feng tried to relax and smiled, "The government issued a call to return to their hometowns, and the people who had fled farther that day were also coming back one after another. The mouth check is even more relaxed, and if you think about it, grandma and the others will join us soon."

What Qin Feng said was not wrong at all.

Knowing that after the Western Territory was pacified, more and more people came back one after another, and the official roads were full of families.

Mrs. Yongning Hou was sitting on the cart, holding the youngest Qin Miao in her arms. There was also a lot of soft luggage piled up on the cart. Qin Zhi and the coachman Lao Zhang pulled the cart, and the rest walked.

They all changed into old clothes, with several patches on them, similar to those of the people walking around, it was not eye-catching at all.

It was a long time ago that the imperial court issued an imperial decree to arrest people, and there were so many ordinary people returning to their hometowns, the government also removed the checkpoints along the way and let them go as soon as possible.

The last part of the walk was slow but smooth.

It was already dark when we entered the town.

The flying gate not far away was locked in the night, and it was not clear to see.

Lin Zhi inquired about the way, went all the way to the outside of the small courtyard, and knocked on the door.

Qin Feng came out to answer the door, and when he heard the old lady's voice, he turned around and called "Auntie", and then hurriedly opened the door.

Hearing his urgent and joyful call, Ji rushed out too.

She saw Qin Zhi pulling the cart, Qin Yuan making faces at her, and Qin Miao jumping off the cart.

Then, she saw the old lady sitting cross-legged in the car.

Ji Shi was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes.

Her backbone is here!
