The blessing of the splendid farm family is married to the world

Chapter 204 Life
Zong Che squinted his eyes and asked, "I just want to ask Zen Master for an amulet. Does the old Zen Master have any?"

It's quite polite to talk, but you have such a big person around you who makes amulets, what do you need those paper ones for, decoration?
Zen master Jingfa said: "Amulets outside the body are not as good as cultivating the future. You are a noble person, you don't need amulets, and you can turn disasters into auspiciousness and auspiciousness."

Zong Che frowned, "The ability of Zen master Jingfa has been rumored as far south as Xuzhou City, so don't pretend to be confused with this general here. I don't want your important and precious magic weapons, I just want a talisman."

The old monk looked up at Zong Che, and wanted to say that the problem you encountered was that no talisman would work. After all, talismans can block spirit bodies that are weaker than themselves.

An Xu said: "Don't be embarrassed, if the talisman is useless, we won't turn back to find your problem."

Chan Master Jingfa sighed and said, "Forget it, let me give you one."

Then he took out a piece of gold-yellow talisman with cinnabar runes written on it from an old bag next to it.

An Xu took it, bowed and said, "Thank you."

Zong Che looked at the talisman, shook his head and said, "Use it first."

After a few days of training, find some raw materials related to the production of magic tools, and ask Taoist priests to make two heart-protecting bells.

He also heard about this thing when he went to the Northwest before. It is said that it was the burial object of the Northwest Desert Lord. He made this heart-protecting bell because he was haunted by unjust souls because of too many wars and killings. Sometimes lonely ghosts invaded him. body of.

Until now, there are rangers and tomb robbers who have explored the northwest, looking for the heart bell everywhere.

When Zong Che went to the northwest before, he heard the legend about the tomb of the desert master in the northwest, but no matter how miraculous the legend is about that thing, but after staying in the cemetery for so many years, it must have been contaminated with a lot of yin, and it may not be auspicious or unlucky.

An Xu didn't know Zong Che's thoughts. After they got the amulets, they left. Today's weather is fine, and the bleak scenery before the arrival of spring has a certain power to shake people's hearts.

With the biting spring breeze blowing, An Xu was also in a good mood, but when he turned his head to find that Zong Che was still in deep thought, he stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes.

Zong Che came back to his senses and smiled when he saw her eyes.

An Xu said: "Don't think about those things, how about we go for a picnic?"

It is useless to worry about things that cannot be controlled by one's current strength.

Zong Che stretched out his hand to grab An Xu's hand, and the cavalry behind him all slowed down their horses wisely and fell far away.

Finally they stopped on a hillside. An Xu jumped off his horse. At the far end of the hillside was a small water pool like a pearl. Next to the small water pool, a half-sized maroon foal was lowering its head in the withered yellow water. eating hay on the meadow.

"That's a wild horse?" An Xu happily grabbed Zong Che's arm.

Zong Che smiled and asked, "Do you want to take him away?"

An Xu shook his head: "It lives among the blue sky, white clouds and green grass, how free it is."

Although it might be taken away by others in the future, she didn't want to deprive it of its freedom for this reason.

The bay red horse by the water's edge moved its ears, and followed the movement to look this way.

This horse is so beautiful, the red mane hangs over the eyes, and the breeze blows, bringing a bit of chic.

It looked at the two people in the distance for a while, then lowered its head to pick up the more delicious hay.

An Xu's mind was a little shaken, and she also wanted to keep the beautiful things for herself.

Seeing her like this, Zong Che couldn't help laughing and said, "Go, go down and have a look."

The two came down the hillside hand in hand, the bay red horse took two steps back vigilantly at the sound of footsteps, but saw that they had no special movements, and slowly swayed around to eat grass again.

An Xu laughed: "Such a horse that is not afraid of people, has it been raised by people?"

As he spoke, he walked over, stretched out his hand tentatively, and slowly placed it on the mane on top of the horse's head. The bay red horse snorted, but did not move away.

An Xu untied the purse in his waist, grabbed a handful of candy, peeled off the candy wrapper and put it in his palm. The bay red horse smelled it, and rolled a few candies into his mouth with a big mouth.

This horse is also very funny when eating candy, rubbing and chewing with its big mouth, and stretched out its mouth to bite An Xu's clothes after eating.

An Xu spread out his hands, indicating that there were no more.

I don't know if the horse understands, but I couldn't find it on her, so I turned my head and wanted to go to Zong Che's side to look for it.

Zong Che folded his arms and stood there without any particularly ruthless expression, but the horse just sniffed at a distance from him, then turned his head and continued to graze.

This is a mountain depression. When you sit down, you can’t feel the flow of the wind at all. The sun shines on your body and it’s warm.

An Xu found a place with thick grass to sit down and enjoy the time quietly.

Zong Che looked around, picked up some dry wooden branches and threw them aside, then sat down beside An Xu, "There are fish in the water, I will catch two later."

"Okay," An Xu said with salt, pepper, chili powder and other seasonings, but it would be better if there were rabbits.

Today's luck is pretty good. It didn't take long for her to come up with this idea, and a huge gray rabbit really got out of the soil.

An Xu shook Zong Che's arm to remind him that Zong Che was carrying a weapon at all times, but it was just a rabbit at the moment. He took out an arrow and threw it at it, and harvested a gray rabbit unique to the grassland.

The rabbit fell to the ground with a thud, and the cozy and leisurely bay red horse over there was startled, but this guy was obviously lazy and big-hearted. Seeing the two upright creatures dismantle the four legs, and strung them again Baked it up on a stick and it didn't go away either.

An Xu saw how it wagged its tail from time to time, and it was really comparable to Xiao Wang at home.

Not long after the rabbit was roasted, the sergeants outside even sent a not-so-big wild sheep.

The two of them couldn't eat much, and after roasting, a leg of lamb was left, and the rest was taken by March to share with the sergeants.

After spending half the afternoon at this small water spring, An Xu and Zong Che went back.

The sun set very quickly on the grassland. When they set off to go back, the sun was still hanging in the west, and it didn't take long for the night to fall.

This is the first day for An Xu to walk on the prairie in the dark. It seems that the moment the sun goes down, the prairie becomes lively. Within a few minutes of the horse walking, she saw several groundhogs coming out of the grass. Get out.

In the distance, there were one or two distant howls of wolves from time to time.

She has been here for so long, and she still hasn't discovered that there are wolves on the grassland.

Zong Che rode with her at this time, and said with a smile: "There are not only wolves, but also deer. From now on, I will often take you out for a walk."

An Xu nodded.

The woolen factory is on the northwest side of the barracks, and the route they came out was northwestward. Before they saw the barracks, they saw the lights in the woolen factory from a distance.

The kerosene lamps they use now, because glass lampshades are not popular, the lamps at the gate of the woolen factory are two pools the size of washbasins, filled with kerosene, with a layer of gauze lampshade, and a woman who looks after the gate lights.

The lamp is big enough, and the light is far enough away, illuminating a large area outside the woolen factory very brightly.

At this time, two younger women were talking outside.

One is a woman wearing a red gauze satin and a big fur cape, and the other is wearing an ordinary woolen factory worker's uniform.

"Yao'er, do you really want to stay in this kind of place for the rest of your life?" The woman in the big hairy cloak looked at the woolen factory with only a fence and wall, and felt pity for the woman in front of her and hated it for being weak.

Yao'er didn't have much of the squeamishness raised in brothels anymore, so she said with a smile, "Sister Xiayue, you really should come in for two days, there is hot water, delicious food, and the daily work is not heavy, compared to ours. It’s much better in the building. Besides, I can read and write. Now Manager Li asks me to spend half an hour every day before going to bed teaching everyone how to read and read, and gives me another part of the wages. I will take this money and compare it to living in the building. The gold, silver and jewelry at that time were comfortable."

Xiayue said distressedly: "Are you stupid? After all, we are different from these ordinary women. Even if the flower house has been seized, we can still find a reliable man to marry."

"Rely on the mountain to fall, rely on everyone to run." Yao'er said.

Xiayue stretched out her finger and tapped her forehead, "Have you been taught badly by the people here?"

Yao'er didn't want to talk about this topic with her, and said: "Sister Xiayue, you came to me at this time, isn't it just to talk about these things?"

Xiayue sighed and said, "Hou Liming and I will get married in three days, and I will stay in the barracks for these two days. He was originally a guerrilla general, and he had an independent camp. Now because I was targeted by the top, he became an ordinary soldier." , I’m in the military camp, and I have to borrow a tent with a female family member there.”

Yao'er listened to her patiently.

"Things have come to this, I can't separate from Hou Liming, I can only grit my teeth and go on. After getting married in the military camp, I will live in the city back."

Yao'er said: "The military camp is indeed quite difficult."

Now it's not a matter of suffering or not, but Hou Liming is an ordinary soldier who doesn't have a place to live, so how dare she live in a tent filled with men.

Thinking of this, Xiayue hated the general's wife the most.

Yes, the order to close the brothel was issued by the general, and the decision to revoke Hou Liming's position as a guerrilla general was also issued by the general, but without the instigation of the general's wife, how could the heavy military general have time to care about them?

She has been in the barracks for two days, and she has always lived in the side of the deputy account. She has seen the general's wife. She looks very bad, just like the regular wives of those rich families, more than dignified but not beautiful.

People like this have always hated them whore girls, but she can make them feel bad with just one word.

But they are not to be trifled with either.

Xiayue said to Yao'er again: "Look at your hands, your face is rougher than my maid, Yao'er, are you really sure to stay here?"

Yao'er tirelessly said again: "Sister Xiayue, I'm sure."

Xiayue sighed, "I can't say no to you. However, you have entered the Mu Mansion and now is the aunt of Young Master Mu. Young Master Mu is very kind to her, and even set up a yard for her alone. In the future If you go to the city, you can find us in Liujin Lane in the outer city."

"I've made a note," Yao'er paused, and said, "Sister, please persuade Niaoyou to stop relying on Young Master Mu like she relied on us before."

Xia Yue said: "We all know that it's you who should be more careful here."

While talking, there was a sound of horseshoes, followed by a long team of horses passing by not far away.

Within the range of the light, Xiayue saw a tall man on a horse, and in front of him, there was a petite woman.

This Northern Territory General is a man Xia Yue has never seen before. She really doesn't understand, why does such a man stick to such a woman?

What she has seen the most is that the main wife is placed in the backyard, and all the tenderness is given to the beautiful concubine.

Such an environment is the world of women like them who are born with an advantage in appearance.

It is a matter of course and widely recognized by the world that a hero deserves a beauty.

Xiayue looked at the road illuminated by the light on the ground, she turned to Yao'er and said, "Don't forget in three days, I'll go back first."

Yao'er asked her to wait, then turned back and brought out a lantern, handed it to Xiayue's maid, and said: "The yarn factory is still far away from the barracks, hurry up your carriage, and go with the team of sergeants in front. "

She watched Xiayue get into the car with complicated clothes, and she had the feeling that the two of them were already in two worlds.

"You go back." Xiayue waved her hand at the window.

Yao'er nodded.

The sun rises and the moon sets, and three days will soon come. On this day, there are several weddings held in the barracks, and Yao'er comes to attend with a woolen scarf she knitted.

Looking at the lively Xuantian scene, I was also happy for Xiayue.

An Xu also came over, but after the master of ceremonies announced the completion of the ceremony, she went back, and she still had a lot of things to do.

Partridge stayed in the camp for weddings for most of the day, and when she came back in the evening, she went to An Xu and said to her, "You didn't see that girl Qiao'er is also very happy, so I went to find her." Hou Liming is talking to Xiayue. From what I can see, she got into a fight with those couples, and she wants to live a better life than Hou Liming and his wife in order to win this breath."

An Xu smiled and said, "It's very possible. Hou Liming and Ling Zhu are at the same starting point now, but Hou Liming's wife is not as good as Qiaoer."

At this time, a woman came in with a large basket and said, "Ma'am, Mr. Lei asked to bring it here."

The baskets are full of green sweet potato seedlings. The partridges have been busy in the city all the time. Seeing so much greenery, they were pleasantly surprised: "Miss, are these grown from those rattan ropes?"

"Then there are fakes?" An Xu took the straw ropes he had prepared before, and pulled a small stool, sat by the basket and picked out a handful of seedlings neatly, and tied them into a small handful.

Tomorrow, let the iron tree lead the troops to distribute it to the herdsmen on the grassland.

This thing is cold-resistant, and if it can have a good harvest on the grassland, it should allow herdsmen to live in one place in the future.

The partridge sat on the other side and helped to tie it up, and said what he said earlier: "Miss, you are right. I think that wife Hou Liming just wants to live a life without worrying about food and clothing. She has no luck at all." able."

"That's right," An Xu said with a smile, "but we women, no matter how capable we are in private, we have to show our clumsy side in front of our men."

The partridge didn't quite understand, "Why?"
