Chapter 125 Chrysanthemum is not bad
Niu Ju is his sister's best friend. If Niu Ju has any sad things, it is best to find Jiao Jiaoer to comfort her.

After saying that, Qi Zhang planned to turn around and look for Sheng Jiaojiao in the house.

The corner of the clothes was pulled by Niu Ju from behind.

Qi Zhang didn't dare to move anymore, he turned his head slightly, and just as he was about to speak, he saw a lady coming out of the kitchen.

The stove house was brightly lit, and the lady stood under the eaves, only to see Qi Zhang standing under a tree sprouting green shoots, she greeted Qi Zhang with a smile,

"Battle Commander Qi, why are you standing here?"

Qi Zhang stood up straight, blocking Niu Ju behind him, and said with a serious face:

"Come out and walk."

Behind him, Niu Ju sobbed, and pressed his forehead to Qi Zhang's back, weeping silently.

Originally, she had already figured it out. A man is not as important as making money. From now on, Niu Ju will become a rich and powerful girl.

But tonight, at this very moment, Niu Ju stood behind the person she liked, and couldn't help crying weakly.

So no matter how capable you are, no matter how much money you can make, in A Niang's eyes, is it still not worth getting married?
So her value is to be married?

But if her value is only to marry someone, why can't she freely choose to marry whoever she likes?

Oh, she forgot, Qi Zhang doesn't like her at all.

The lady under the kitchen opposite was obviously a chatterbox, she looked at Qi Zhang under the tree with a smile, and started a long conversation,

"Battalion Commander Qi and Commander Tan Yi are young children, why is Commander Tan Yi soon to be recruited, but Commander Qi hasn't said goodbye yet? Could it be that your old lady forgot about you?"

Hearing this, Qi Zhang could only smile and said nothing. He originally covered Niu Ju just to preserve Niu Ju's reputation, for fear that the two of them standing alone in the yard talking would cause misunderstandings to the mothers-in-law in the village.

But now that the lady had put on the posture of a long talk, Qi Zhang couldn't get out of the way even more.

As a result, he noticed that Niu Ju leaned his forehead against his back, and the slight sobbing meant that Niu Ju was crying.

Is she crying?
Qi Zhang raised his head slightly to look at the bright moon in the sky, and was puzzled in his heart. In his impression, Niu Ju was a solid, capable, stress-resistant and virtuous girl.

She and Jiaojiao'er are completely two kinds of people. Jiaojiao'er was watered by the Qi family. She was born in honey since she was a child. She can't carry it on her shoulders. If she is made to work a little bit, it seems to be a big sin. so-so.

Niu Ju is the complete opposite. In Qi Zhang's memory, Niu Ju has never been vulnerable.

In other words, Qi Zhang has never seen Niu Ju cry.

As if his feet had taken root, he stood there to block her, preventing her fragility from being seen by anyone.

He also heard the lady in front of the stove asking him with a smile,
"Battle Commander Qi, what kind of girl do you like? Tell me, and I'll set you up and earn money as a matchmaker."

Obviously, this lady really meant to be a matchmaker. Not to mention the girls of the right age in the three villages near Tiaoma Lake all want to marry Qi Zhang, even the girls near Nanji want to marry Qi Zhang.

If it is really possible to successfully match Qi Zhang, the matchmaker should have a lot of money.

Qi Zhang didn't pay any attention to it, but the more the lady said, the less she wanted to leave. Even from her cousin's daughter to the daughter of her natal family's next door, Qi Zhang cupped his hands and said:

"I don't have any plans to talk about marriage yet, but if I definitely want to talk about marriage, I think that Chrysanthemum is pretty good."

In fact, he has the same idea as Tan Ji, life and death are impermanent on the battlefield, so there is no need to drag an innocent girl down.

But the other party kept saying, and he didn't know why, thinking of marrying someone else, he might as well marry Niu Ju.

This is the truth.

Although in comparison, he doesn't like Niu Ju as much as men do to women, and it's also possible that Niu Ju himself doesn't look down on such a precarious general like him.

The lady on the opposite side said a few words and left. After Qi Zhang made sure that no one was looking at him, he turned his head slightly and said softly to Niu Ju behind him:

"left already."

Niu Ju sniffed, her cheeks were slightly red, she stood up straight with her head down, and said in a low voice:
"sorry."

"It's okay, do you need me to find Jiaojiao'er?"

He felt that Niu Ju needed Sheng Jiaojiao at this time.

Niu Ju shook her head, bit her lip and said:
"It's okay, I should go home, I have to get up early tomorrow to farm."

After finishing speaking, she turned around and left quickly.

Leaving Qi Zhang standing there alone, after thinking for a long time, he was really worried about Niu Ju's condition, so he decided to follow.

Following Niu Ju all the way, Qi Zhang found that Niu Ju had indeed returned home. Niu's house was very quiet, Niu Niangzi seemed to have returned to her natal family, and Niu Yuan was at home alone.

After Niu Ju went in, Niu Yuan soon put his back on his back and went to the waterside to dig wild vegetables.

Qi Zhang stood outside Niu's house in the middle of the night, with dew dripping on his shoulders, but he didn't notice anything unusual, so he went back to his house.

Don't worry, before dawn, Qi Zhang stood outside Sheng Jiaojiao's window, tapped on the window with his fingers, and said:

"Jiao Jiaoer, Jiao Jiaoer, get up and go see Chrysanthemum."

Sheng Jiaojiao had never been woken up so early before, she didn't want to pay attention to Qi Zhang, but in a daze, she heard Qi Zhang say that something might have happened to Niu Ju, so she stood up from the bed immediately.

something wrong?What happened?

Almost at the fastest speed, Sheng Jiaojiao washed and changed her clothes and went out.

When she hurried to Niu Ju's house, Niu Ju had already gone out to farm in the water pond.

Qi Zhang took a rest yesterday and had to rush back to the barracks early this morning. The battle in the north of the county was still going on, so he couldn't leave his post without authorization.

So Sheng Jiaojiao didn't have to discuss it personally, so she took the family's donkey and went to Shuibo.

Niu Yuan dug wild vegetables on the ground by the water all night, and rushed over when he saw Niu Ju. He opened his mouth several times, but he didn't know what to say.

As a father, Niu Yuan is very dull. The most he talks to this daughter is "eat" and "work hard". Besides, no matter how much you want him to say, about Lu Bai deep in his heart, Niu Yuan couldn't tell.

Niu Ju didn't ask, or even asked why A Niang went back to her mother's house.

The father and daughter are like two cows, silently picking wild vegetables.

Seeing Sheng Jiaojiao coming from a distance on a donkey, Niu Yuan couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief.

The girl's family's worries still need to be solved by the girl's family.

He hurriedly found an excuse, took a large basket of solid wild vegetables and left, to make room for Sheng Jiaojiao.

Spring has come, and after one night, a lot of wild vegetables appeared in the field, and more people came to pick them.

Last night, Niu Yuan told the people in the three villages that the ten acres of land had been planted by the Niu family. Although he did not explicitly say that the people in the three villages were not allowed to pick wild vegetables, the meaning was similar. .

Therefore, there are many fewer people who come to pick wild vegetables in this field today.

This season, in the poor mountains and rivers of Zhishou County, wild vegetables are actually everywhere, and they are not allowed to be picked here, but they can be picked in other places as well.

Sheng Jiaojiao put the donkey in the field to eat wild vegetables freely, and walked up to Niu Ju, carrying a long sky-blue skirt and a bamboo pot in her hand.

She didn't ask Niu Ju why she was crying yesterday, she just handed over the bamboo pot and said with a smile:
"Niuju, there are so many wild vegetables in this field, I will buy some with you, the price must be high."

Niu Ju slept through the night, and her mood improved a lot. She looked at Sheng Jiaojiao, and after a while, she smiled "puchi" and asked:

"You made some money from me on Zhudibao, and then spent money to buy my wild vegetables, so why bother? We might as well exchange wild vegetables for Dibao."

"Alright, I have no opinion."

Sheng Jiaojiao smiled, and the wind blew again, raising her long hair around her cheeks, walking along the water with Niu Ju, talking to each other as a way of relaxing.

In the distance, the militia teams of the three villages were watching Sheng Jiaojiao closely, for fear that some people from the country would jump out and come to kill her again.

However, there were no Chinese people, and there were two men standing not far away, one was Xiong Jun, and the other was a fat businessman with a big belly.

The two stood on the side of the dirt road, a little closer to Jishang. Xiong Jun pointed to the cow chrysanthemum beside the water and said:

"Master, look, that's the girl I told you about, and she's a young girl."

He was eager to sell Niu Ju for a reward, so he said all the good things about Niu Ju in front of Master Wang, which attracted this Master Wang to come from Nanji, and planned to take a look at Niu Ju from a distance today.

If he is satisfied, Xiong Jun will naturally find a way to let Niu Ju go to Master Wang's side.

Even if you don't want to, you have to be willing.

Master Wang had a fleshy face, and his eyes were like mung beans, staring at Sheng Jiaojiao intently.

A bellows-like laugh came out of his mouth, and he said to Xiong Jun:
"The lady Ju you mentioned is not as good-looking as the girl next to her, I think. That one, the one in the sky-blue dress, you can get her for me, and it will cost as much money as you want."

It's a rare beauty in the world. Master Wang is a good player who indulges in fun, and he can see Sheng Jiaojiao's beauty just by looking at him.

Some people are beautiful on the surface, but if the surface is weak, the face is not there, and some people have no inner bones. Such a beauty has gone through the years, but still has the charm.

Master Wang never expected that in such a poor and remote place as Zhishou County, he would find Sheng Jiaojiao, who is so beautiful in her bones but not in her skin.

If he wants this woman, he is willing to spend any amount of money.

Xiong Jun's face was a little perplexed, and he looked into the distance at Sheng Jiaojiao, whose azure skirt was flying.

She didn't know what she said to Niu Ju, and the two girls stood by the water and laughed.

"I'm afraid this girl can't do it. She has someone else, and her fiancé is Tan Yichang."

Xiong Jun told the truth, and looked at Master Wang's face again. Obviously, the expression on Master Wang's face was very angry.

Therefore, Xiong Jun couldn't help crying secretly, asking him to get a cow chrysanthemum to buy, it's naturally not difficult, but if he wanted to sell Sheng Jiaojiao, it might be a deal that would kill him.

"You bring her to me, and I'll give you five hundred gold."

Master Wang is rich and powerful, he snorted coldly, and said again:

"What wing chief? A mere wing chief can grab a woman from me, not to mention the wing chief, even the daughter of the general's mansion, I have bought them all."

There are as many generals in the imperial capital as cows, all of them are in current positions, even similar to civil servants, wearing wide sleeves, wearing black hats, sleeping in flowers and willows, spending time and wine, and spending money like water.

There are too many concubines in some generals' mansions, and they are not liked by the generals, and they will be sold out like ordinary slaves.

There are some wealthy businessmen down here with extremely secretive thoughts. They are very fond of the kind of concubines who are sold out by nobles. They always feel that women who have slept with nobles seem to be tainted with nobility.

Even some indulgent minds will think of ways to toss those concubines who have served the nobles.

As time goes on, the courage of some of the best players is fattened.

So, to Master Wang, what is a wing length worth?
As long as they have money and connections, women in the palace dare to sleep.

Xiong Jun didn't speak anymore, he knew it was not feasible, but he kept echoing in his mind, five hundred gold, five hundred gold, five hundred gold
With the five hundred gold, there are many things he can do.

It was in this silent act that Mr. Wang acted as Xiong Jun and agreed.

The fat rich businessman's face was full of flesh, and his mung bean eyes stared at Sheng Jiaojiao for a while, until Sheng Jiaojiao led the donkey and left the sleeping pool with Niu Ju.

He reluctantly got into the carriage and left.

Sheng Jiaojiao was surrounded by militiamen from the three nearby villages, and there were occasional passers-by on the dirt road in the distance. As long as they didn't try to assassinate her, the militiamen generally would not care about those who passed by or stopped.

So Sheng Jiaojiao didn't know that she had become someone else's prey.

She was just leading the donkey and heard what Niu Ju said about A Niang asking her to marry to Nanjun.

On the loess road, there were a few scattered people walking on the road to carry the water. Sheng Jiaojiao said softly to Niu Ju, who was carrying a basket of wild vegetables:
"Actually, Nanjun is not as good as you think."

People in Zhishou County all said that Nanjun was good, and described Nanjun as a paradise, but it was not a paradise.

Seeing Niu Ju's confused and puzzled look, Sheng Jiaojiao waved to her, and the two squatted on the side of the dirt road.

With a soft sound of "唰", Sheng Jiaojiao pulled out the Yuchang sword in his sleeve, and drew a topographic map of South County on the yellow earth,

"To the south of this side is Zhinan County, and next to it is the State of Jin. Life is not easy. People in Zhinan County either go to Jin State or to Nanjun. This side is connected to the snow-capped mountains. In summer, the snow-capped mountains melt into water. Even if there is a flood, the wealthy people in Nanjun don’t live here, even though Nanjun is good, but when summer comes, the victims are everywhere, and after the flood, if you are not careful, it will cause a plague.”

As she spoke, the tip of the sword kept drawing on the ground, and said:
"Here, there are thousands of hectares of fertile land, but most of them are the ancestral lands of the nobles of the imperial capital. Daze has established the country for several generations. The titles have been hereditary, and the bureaucracy is redundant. It is too late. Just by eating the land rent from Nanjun, you can be rich and luxurious for several lifetimes."

What is the use of ten thousand hectares of fertile land?Ordinary wealthy businessmen may not be allocated an acre of land.

Generations of nobles have children, and when they have children, they need to divide the family property. A large family needs to continue to collect money, but Nanjun is such a big place, and there are only so many fertile lands. How many honorable points can the emperor have?
