Chapter 117

With a slight smile on Madam Tan's face, she shook her head at Sheng Jiaojiao. She reached out and held Sheng Jiaojiao's hand. In the cold winter, she sighed:

"It's been so many years, and it's the first time I've seen him so eager to do something, Jiao Jiaoer, over the years, the number of times your uncle has gone out can be counted on one's fingers, and you first obeyed his wishes, and I turned around Let Da Lang persuade him to go back."

While talking, Uncle Tan's scolding came from far behind the house,
"Have you never raised horses before? Even if it's not a hard-earned horse, you can't let it be ruined like this. I'll come, I said I'll come!!!"

Mrs. Tan still had a smile on her face, and immediately became a little ashamed. She looked at Tan Jiaojiao cautiously, and explained:

"Your uncle, in fact, he is very experienced in raising horses. He used to be very good, but he was not so handsome."

"I understand, I understand."

Hearing Uncle Tan's ups and downs scolding in his ears, Sheng Jiaojiao stretched out his hand and shook Mrs. Tan's hand, glanced at her, and saw Qi Rong running up from the back of the house, rubbing the little shelter under the eaves.

Sheng Jiaojiao raised her hand, telling Qi Rong to talk later, then smiled at Mrs. Tan:

"It just so happens that everyone in my family is busy in the stables, and no one is cooking today. Since my aunt is here, why not take over the cooking job."

Mrs. Tan, who was feeling ashamed, immediately let go of Sheng Jiaojiao's hand with an "ah", and hurried into the kitchen to cook.

She knows her man's temper. In the past ten years, Uncle Tan has scolded this or yelled at that at home. After losing his temper, he hides and cries regretfully. He really doesn't want to do this.

With such a cruel life, he can't die on the battlefield and sacrifice his life for the country, and he can't live without dragging his family down. As an indomitable man, Uncle Tan has his own grievances.

Mrs. Tan knows what kind of virtue Uncle Tan is at home, but in the past ten years, this is the first time Mrs. Tan has seen Mrs. Tan urgently want to go out to do something, so urgent that she can't care about self-pity, but also cares about it. Will it attract ridicule from others if I miss my own broken leg?

So Mrs. Tan was shameless for a while, and came over with the help of Mr. Tan.

Behind the courtyard, Uncle Tan's angry roar came from afar, Sheng Jiaojiao walked towards Qi Rong and asked:

"what happened?"

"Uncle Tan drove us all away, leaving behind my father, uncle and second uncle to build the wall of the stable."

Qi Rong echoed Sheng Jiaojiao's words in a low voice, and said:
"He also said that there was a cub in the belly of a horse. Dad went up and felt it, and it was true."

This, Qi Wei doesn’t know how Uncle Tan knew about it. Anyway, it was about a month old, and everyone didn’t see it, but as soon as Uncle Tan went, he pointed to a mare inside and said that this mare The horse is pregnant.

Sheng Jiaojiao understood, and said to Qi Rong:
"Let Uncle Tan take care of the stables, and you and Niu Ju try to cooperate with him."

After finishing the order, Sheng Jiaojiao simply put aside the matter of taking care of the bloody BMW, followed Uncle Tan to toss about, went back to the room, and concentrated on thinking about the prescription for golden sores.

The prescription is the prescription of the army, which can no longer be optimized. After all, the military camp frequently uses medicine for golden sores, so the prescription has been modified by several generations, and it is quite perfect now.

Therefore, the direction Sheng Jiaojiao wanted was how to fuse her own water with the powdered golden sore medicine.

If it can't be bottled, then make a paste?
For this solar term, nothing can be grown in the field, and the medicinal materials can only be used from the stock of the Chen family, so the medicinal effect is weaker than the medicinal materials Sheng Jiaojiao grows himself.

Just now in front of A Niang, she said that her golden sore medicine is worth more than a thousand gold, but in fact she was a bit exaggerated, because she didn't know how effective the golden sore ointment made with her own water would be, so let's experiment first.

The Qi family has no shortage of medicinal materials. Every time they take medicine from the Chen family's medicine warehouse and transport it to the north of the county, the three masters of the Qi family will take a sample of the medicinal materials and bring it back to Sheng Jiaojiao.

After a long time and more times, the same kind of medicinal materials can be loaded into a big bag.

Sheng Jiaojiao gathered all the medicinal materials according to the prescription of golden sore medicine, found a pestle and went to the kitchen.

Mrs. Tan was cooking in the kitchen, and when she saw Sheng Jiaojiao holding a medicinal pestle in her hand, she hurriedly asked:

"Who is this sick?"

"No, no, I just want to make some golden sore ointment."

Sheng Jiaojiao took the medicine pot and found a small earthen bowl, and sat under the eaves of the kitchen, talking to Mrs. Tan while making medicine.

Mrs. Tan, who was busy inside, smiled and said:
"I've heard of this golden sore medicine, golden sore ointment? I've never heard of it."

Because of the lack of water in Zhishou County, the barracks did not waste water to boil the ointment, and there was no time to carefully make the ointment when the battle was fought.

And because of the added water, it is easy to attract insects, and it is not very convenient to store.

Sheng Jiaojiao sat under the eaves and smiled, carrying Mrs. Tan on her back, mixed the dried herbs that had been pounded into powder, made a paste with her own water, went back to the kitchen to find a bowl, and said:
"Okay, you're done!"

Mrs. Tan was speechless for a while, she glanced at the lump of paste in the rough bowl, and for a while, she suspected that Sheng Jiaojiao was joking with her.

Seeing Sheng Jiaojiao's serious look when she entered the door, she thought she was going to do something, but the result was to crush the medicinal materials into powder and add some water?

"I'll go find someone to try."

Sheng Jiaojiao took the ointment in the bowl, went out excitedly, and saw Qi Rong practicing sword in the snow at a glance.

She smiled and asked:

"Fourth, how about sword practice? Are you injured?"

Qi Rong's footsteps faltered, and he looked at Sheng Jiaojiao in panic,

"Sister, I'm not hurt, what's wrong?"

The expectant Sheng Jiaojiao was immediately disappointed, she glanced at the sword in Qi Zhi's hand, and asked again:
"Your mother hasn't hit you recently?"

Asking this made Qi Zhi even more flustered, he couldn't help but reflect on his recent behavior, and asked cautiously:
"Sister, did you get any rumors? Is my mother planning to hit me again?"

It's no wonder he's such an all-around soldier, Qi Rong has been attacked countless times by San Niangzi's iron sand palm since he was a child.

Often when he let down his vigilance and felt that the years were peaceful, San Niangzi would give him a few palms, and Qi Rong had already been out of the shadows by the surprise attack.

Sheng Jiaojiao repeated "No, no, no, no, no," and waved his hands to show that Qi Rong was thinking too much, which frightened Qi Rong, so Sheng Jiaojiao didn't continue to ask him, but turned around and went to find the rest of Qi's family to see if there was anyone else. hurt.

Leaving Qi Rong standing where he was, thinking for a long, long time. Let's run, isn't the front line recruiting soldiers recently?He might as well go to the army.

But he is not old enough to enter the barracks.

Stay at home, look at Elder Sister's expression of hesitating to speak, as if the third lady is going to beat him to death.

Looking at Zhang Jin who was leading the horse, carrying the burden, and preparing to go far away, Qi Rong rolled his eyeballs, leaving the green hills behind, not afraid that there would be no firewood, he immediately went up to him holding the Broken Mountain Sword, and said with a smile:
"Uncle Zhang, are you going to the pawn shop in Shanqing City? My elder sister said, let me go with you this time and count as going out to practice."

Zhang Jin looked at Qi Rong suspiciously, he was doing errands for Sheng Jiaojiao, and he would go to the pawn shop in Dacheng every three days, so the Qi family knew that he was going out with a burden on his back, and he was going to pawn gold, silver and jewelry.

Can you go out with a half-grown kid?

"My sword skills are not bad now. My sister said that you come and go here, and you have more and more things. You are afraid of attracting attention, so let me protect you personally."

Qi Rong was in a hurry to escape, so he pulled Zhang Jin's horse and went out. He thought, from his home to Shanqing City, it would take at most two days to go back and forth, and when he came back the next day, no matter what he did, Auntie should calm down too.

At that time, hit him lightly.

What's more, my sister did say before that if he was allowed to go out to practice, she also said that he was not allowed to go far, and asked Zhang Jin to take him to Shanqing City to see the excitement and then return.

The two were about to leave when suddenly, the mastiff who was originally behind the yard howled like crazy.

The bark of this mastiff is very different from that of ordinary dogs. Usually, the bark is muffled in the throat at most, and it barks a few times in a low voice. Today it is different. It barks like a ferocious beast, oh Woooooooooooo, the sound resounded throughout the Huangtu Village.

Immediately afterwards, the dogs in every household barked wildly, one after another, which was very unusual.

Zhang Jin was puzzled for a moment, and looked at Qi Rong, who didn't understand very well, and thought he was going to sneak out, but he was discovered.

It was at this moment that everyone in Huangtu Village opened their doors.

I don't know who shouted in the snowy night,
"There are thieves, our village is under thieves."

While speaking, a group of men in black held their swords and stood close to the Qi family. They looked at each other, and someone whispered in the national dialect:

"Discovered!"

"Go right in and take that Sheng Jiaojiao away."

A man in black suggested that since he had been discovered anyway, he might as well fight.

There was no objection among this group of people, they brushed their swords and went straight to Qi's house, but the general saw Qi's courtyard door, and bumped into Qi Rong and Zhang Jin.

With a "shua" sound, Qi Rong pulled out the Broken Mountain Sword, the sword was unsheathed, and the man had already charged forward, only angrily said:

"Where did the thief come from, dare to come to our place to seek death."

Behind him, Zhang Jin took out the iron pestle around his waist, and also went up to meet him. While beating the man in black, he shouted:

"They come from the country."

Chinese people are good at using scimitars, and they always like to inlay gems on scimitars.

As soon as Zhang Jin finished speaking, people in the village also joined the battlefield one after another. The three masters of the Qi family, together with the third lady Qi, came out with weapons in hand.

Sheng Jiaojiao was still holding her golden wound medicine that had been mixed into a paste, and when she heard the sound of fighting, she returned from the backyard to the front yard.

A man in black jumped up from the front of Qi's house, jumped into the fence of the yard, passed through the bare branches, spotted Sheng Jiaojiao, and slashed at Sheng Jiaojiao with a machete, shouting in the national dialect:

"Sheng Jiaojiao, it doesn't matter whether she lives or dies!"

Those who can be caught alive will naturally be caught, but if they can't be caught alive, that bitch Sheng Jiaojiao will be killed on the spot!

This winter, with Tiaoma Lake heading south, the entire Zhishou County is in a relatively stable state, except for the more and more eagerness of the vassal state in the north of the county.

The entire Daze was plunged into severe winter, and not a single blade of grass grew in the field. In fact, the same is true for the subordinate country.

Before deciding to go south to attack Daze, the vassal state had been planning for a long time. They expected that Zhishou County would be in chaos in the middle of winter this year. Zeda made a fuss.

But they absolutely did not expect that they not only lost their hard-earned horses, but Zhishou County was not starved to death like in previous years at this time of year.

When something happened suddenly, the vassals naturally had to inquire and analyze the reason.

Soon, they learned that the reason why there was no chaos in Zhishou County this year was because the army had been distributing rations, and the second was because the army had been distributing military salaries on time.

In Tiaoma Lake, all the military households who have received money pensions are full of joy and tears. The joy is that they finally have money for the winter, and there is still a lot of money. The family can rely on these pensions to live a good life for many years. The tears are, This is in exchange for the life of the son of the family.

And lost the pension of Erlang's family, there will be every month, and it will be paid on time, the money is not much, enough for the whole family to tighten their belts and live.

Therefore, Zhishou County is not chaotic, Tan Ji and Qi Zhang's rear is as stable as a rock, Qi Zhang is fighting steadily, Tan Ji has repeatedly made extraordinary achievements, and the two are fighting more and more bravely in the face of the attack of the vassal state. There is no external factor that can affect their performance. .

Even, more and more people wanted to join the army under the two of them.

Why can the army barracks in the north of the county pay the army on time?
The Chinese people inquired carefully, only to find out that Sheng Jiaojiao has been collecting food for the army.

This slut ruined the vassal's plan to go south to plunder, and also heard that this slut was Tan Ji's unmarried wife, or Qi Zhang's younger sister, so the vassals began to think.

If they failed to rob and depose the prince, they could go and rob Sheng Jiaojiao, and then they could force Tan Ji and Qi Zhang to give up their resistance.

If no one can be caught alive, then Sheng Jiaojiao will be killed directly to relieve the hatred in the heart of the subordinate country.

The man in black who jumped off had a strong murderous look, and he couldn't let Sheng Jiaojiao go today.

Standing in the snow, Sheng Jiaojiao raised her head expressionlessly, and looked towards the person falling in the air. Behind her, Miss Qi quickly stepped forward, blocked Sheng Jiaojiao, and threw a long whip.

However, she failed, and was cut off by the mastiff. The mastiff jumped into the air and bit the man in black who fell in the air. Like a wooden stick, he grabbed the man in black and landed in the yard. .

"Ah~~~"

There was a scream, and the man in black on the ground yelled, the scimitar in his hand didn't know where it fell, but the mastiff was too fierce, the more he struggled, the more blood flowed, and soon, the man in black was fierce The mastiff's mouth stopped moving.

Sheng Jiaojiao was protected by Miss Qi, and only had time to shout to the mastiff in the snow:
"Mastiff, stay alive."
