Eighth year of Chongzhen

Chapter 556

As the enthusiastic concierge said, Mrs. Zhao's home is not far from the nursing home where she works.

The concierge led the way, and Li Jinzhong followed behind with his horse. After turning a few turns, he came to the entrance of a not-so-spacious alley. The concierge raised his hand and pointed: "The unpainted gate in front is Miss Zhao It's home, the general can call the door, the villain is waiting here, and I will take care of the horse for the general!"

A few children playing at the entrance of the alley felt timid when they saw the tall and burly Li Jinzhong. They stopped playing and stayed where they were, but soon their attention was attracted by the tall horse, and they looked at Li Jinzhong tentatively. After realizing that the other party hadn't noticed them, these children slowly gathered around and looked at the war horse with eyes full of curiosity and envy.

Li Jinzhong hesitated for a moment, handed the reins of the war horse to the porter, rubbed his hands together a few times, and then said in a low voice: "Isn't it rude to come to the door without a gift? Why don't you come out with some money and trouble brother?" How about buying some nearby gifts for someone?"

"Success! The general is right. It is rude to come to the door empty-handed. The general will wait for a while. The villain will go to the store in front to buy some items, and he will be back in a while!"

Seeing Li Jinzhong's words and demeanor, the sophisticated concierge knew that he lacked knowledge in this kind of matter. Seeing Li Jinzhong take out the silver from his pocket, the concierge rolled his eyes, and he was concerned.

Holding the rein in one hand, he took the broken silver worth a few dollars from Li Jinzhong with the other, and then handed the rein back to Li Jinzhong, turned around and walked quickly towards the way he came.

Li Jinzhong watched the enthusiastic concierge leave, looked around, and then led the horse to a jujube tree with a thick bowl by the wall, and tied the reins of the horse to the tree.

The few children followed and walked around the horse. The bay red horse raised its neck and snorted, showing a look of disdain.

"Wu Na doll, stay away from the horse, be careful not to let it kick, it will be scattered!"

A little disturbed, Li Jinzhong caught a glimpse of a child reaching out to touch the back of the horse, and immediately yelled a few words in a rough voice. Several children immediately rushed to the side, but they still refused to leave for a while, just staring at Li Jinzhong and the horse. Pointing and talking about something in a low voice, with a look of laughter on their faces.

Li Jinzhong didn't make him wait for too long, after a while, the porter came back with some pastries and candies in his pocket, and Li Jinzhong hurried forward to take them, thanking him again and again.

"General, here, the villain specially bought you a jar of wine and came back. The general will drink a few sips to show off your appearance. Later, when you enter Miss Zhao's house, you will have a conversation, so that you won't be able to say a lot of words in your heart!"

The porter said with a smile.

After all, he is a person who has experienced it. He saw Li Jinzhong's hesitant look just now, and knew that even if he entered someone's house, he would definitely not be able to say anything to make people happy, so he simply bought a jar of wine and asked Li Jinzhong to drink it to make him stronger. Be brave, and dare to say anything when the time comes.

"This,, drinking is forbidden in the army. If the Shangguan finds out about it, he will beat him with [-] army sticks. Besides, he is not good at drinking. If he drinks too much and talks nonsense, it will be bad to offend the little lady!"

Li Jinzhong saw the small wine jar handed over by the concierge and did not reach out to pick it up. Instead, he hesitated and said after thinking for a while.

"Hey, General, it's not me talking about you, but I can tell from my eyes that you are a straight-hearted person, and you must not be a good-spoken person. If you don't use alcohol to strengthen your courage, you won't have to say anything even if you enter the door!

Alcohol is prohibited in the army, but you are not in the army now, how can any Shangguan see it?

Just listen to me, that's right! "

Li Jinzhong looked around and found that there were no outsiders except a few children and passers-by.

Furthermore, what the concierge said was indeed reasonable. He rode here with enthusiasm, just wanting to speak out what was in his heart after seeing the person he liked, but now that the enthusiasm has passed, all that remains in his heart is anxiety and guilty conscience, and his original thoughts are slow. Slowly dissipating, if there is no external help, he wants to leave now.

This is not to say that he is hot for 3 minutes, but because he cares too much about Miss Zhao, and he is afraid that doing so will make her suffer, and even more afraid that he will hear the decisive words from her. If so, he I really don't know how sad I will be.

"General, if you are a man, if you really want a woman, you have to work hard!"

The concierge cheered him up again.

"Success! Uh, I listen to you, let's fight!"

"Hey, that's right!"

The concierge patted open the mud seal of the wine jar with a happy face, and tore off the oil paper wrapped around the mouth of the jar. A faint scent of rice wine overflowed. Li Jinzhong took other things in one hand, took the wine jar with the other, and brought it to his mouth , Throwing back his neck and gulping down a gulp, after a while, most of the jar of rice wine went into his stomach.

Li Jinzhong took the wine jar away, let out a long sigh of relief, and then hiccupped, a blush appeared on his dark face, and his eyes became brighter.

Seeing this, the concierge hurriedly took the wine jar, smiled and gave him a thumbs up. After Li Jinzhong nodded, he took the gift and strode towards Miss Zhao's house.

The gatehouse of Mrs. Zhao's house looked like it hadn't been repaired for a long time, the blue tiles covering it had been damaged, and one of the copper rings on the two closed doors had been damaged. Li Jinzhong walked to the door , taking advantage of the surge of alcohol, he slammed on the door panel.

After a while, a gentle voice sounded from inside the door: "Who knocked on the door? Does the little girl know the distinguished guest?"

"Miss Zhao, it's er! Li Jinzhong! It's the one who asked someone to propose marriage today! You open the door and let er in, er has some words to explain to you!"

Miss Zhao inside the door was obviously taken aback when Li Jinzhong announced his family name, and after a moment of silence, she said: "General Li, I thank the general for your kindness first, and I have already taken care of things with confidence. It clearly shows that the family background and appearance of the slave family are not worthy of such a general, the general should please go back, it is really inconvenient for the slave family to open the door!"

"Ms. Zhao! I've heard all your words, but I always feel that you don't think that way in your heart! You still like me, don't you?"

Li Jinzhong, who was not good at drinking, was drunk at this time, and while the sweat was dripping from his forehead, his speech became bold and direct.

Miss Zhao inside the door was silent for a moment again, and her tone became cold in an instant: "General Li may have misunderstood it! How can a hero like you be worthy of a handicapped person like the slave family! You Why do you have nothing to do to entertain the slave family? General, please go back! Don’t ruin my Zhao family’s reputation here! If you don’t leave, the slave family will call someone to report to the official!"

When Li Jinzhong heard the other party's attitude, he became more anxious immediately. He felt a little unstable when he was drinking, so he simply turned around, put a few bags of gifts on the ground, and sat down with his back against the door panel. Those children also gathered together, smiling and looking at Li Jinzhong, who was a little drunk.

"Miss Zhao! You are so wronged for saying this! You never have any intention of entertaining yourself! You just like you! That's why I asked someone to come to propose marriage. If there is even a little bit of hypocrisy, God will strike you dead." !"

Li Jinzhong, who was too drunk, leaned his upper body against the door panel, wiped the sweat off his face with the back of his hand, his voice was so dry that he wanted to burst into flames, and his voice became lower and lower: "Eh, the first time I saw you today, I felt like As if I saw you in some realm, I felt like I owed you in my heart, I thought, maybe you were the creditor in the previous life, and you are looking for the debt in this life!
Er’s hometown is from a poor military household in Zuowei, Xi’an. Before enlisting in the army, he was forced to join the army because he had no way to survive. After several years, he always rushed to the front in every battle. It also made a lot of military exploits.

Ye's family background also knows that they are all the same, and he has no intention of looking down on you in his heart. Ye is blind in one eye, how can this be a big deal?All the women in the world have eyes, but I don't think any of them are more beautiful than yours!
How happy it is to have a mother in your family!Er Niang died when Er was ten years old, even if Er wanted to be filial, she didn't have to be filial!

It's not a big deal if you have a younger brother to be raised, um, this time you'll be appointed a guerrilla general in battle, and you'll have hundreds of taels of silver in a year, it's not a big deal to support your mother and younger brother, we two When people get married, you can bring your mother and younger brother in together, so you can raise them!

The reward for killing Jiannu is quite a lot. Let me tell you, I also found a lot of gold and silver from those Jiannu's homes. Besides sending back most of it to the old father at home, I also left a lot. Monthly salary, you can't spend it all, and you will have enough money to marry your younger brother in the future!

Er, I just feel, Er, I will be with you for the rest of my life, even if I die, I won't be separated from you!The two of them get married and buy a house, and they can give birth to many children, many. . . . "

As Li Jinzhong's voice gradually became inaudible, there was a burst of thunderous snoring, and this guy actually fell asleep with the help of alcohol.

The concierge who had already come couldn't laugh or cry when he saw this, but Li Jinzhong's words just now moved him very much. He was about to go forward and persuade Miss Zhao through the gate, when a loud shout came from behind him: "Li Jinzhong, you This fellow is indeed here!"

　Thanks to 20190604183712371 and Emperor Ming for the reward.
