I live in Dayu Changsheng

Chapter 46, entrusted

"So fast?!"

Rao Fang Rui had been mentally prepared, but he was shocked when he heard the news all of a sudden.

'Leading a group of mobs, but able to march at such a speed, that bandit leader Li Xuantong is a capable man! ' he thought to himself.

"I can't believe it either, but it's the truth... I came here to tell Brother Fang just after I received the news... The county government called urgently and asked us to go out on patrol, to suppress the law, and the words were extremely severe..."

Jiang Pingan shook his head with a wry smile: "I thought that there would be a few more days to buffer, but I didn't want to..."

Obviously, the magistrate is in a hurry!If the Taiping bandits break the city, his official status will definitely be lost, and even his life will be lost, and he will have to take care of his family...

In such a situation, naturally they can't take care of anything, and severely increase the size of the people below.

If Jiang Ping'an continues to delay, it will be easy to lose all his official clothes, and if it is more serious, he may be set as a target and killed as an example to others.

--yes!The high-level combat power of the government has suffered serious losses, but the emaciated camels are bigger than horses, and it is not difficult to liquidate a few headhunters.

"I have already explained here that the person in charge of military service, even if he is a strong man, will not find Brother Shang..."

When Jiang Pingan said this, he paused for a moment, and earnestly entrusted him as if he was confessing his funeral, "If I have an emergency... If I confessed last night, brother Fang, don't forget!"

After that, he turned and left in a hurry.

Fang Rui looked at Jiang Ping'an's back under the sun, startled for a moment, then shook his head: "It seems that I am not the only one who was not drunk last night..."

"It's really... In this world, whether it's a human or a ghost, they're all acting!"

Although it was early in the morning, the sun had already risen, the sun shrouded the earth, and it was bright everywhere, but in such a broad daylight, the breeze brought yelling and crying from time to time, continuously.

Fang Rui sighed and turned around: "It's messed up! This world...is completely messed up!"

……

Returning to the room, Fang Rui suppressed the irritability in his heart, and regained his composure, with Zhizhu in his hands, as if everything was under control.

As the backbone of the family, no matter what the situation, he can't mess up.

"...That's it. This morning, the Taiping bandits have already besieged the city." Fang Rui didn't hide it, and shared the news he got from Jiang Ping'an.

"So fast?!"

"How can this be good?"

Fang Xueshi and San Niangzi were a little flustered.

Yes, San Niangzi is no exception—she is a 'strong woman', but she will break her defenses when encountering such a catastrophic event...or maybe it's because of Fang Rui, her reliance, her temperament Unconsciously weaker.

Of course, the panic was only for a short time. When they saw the calm Fang Rui, they quickly calmed down again.

"Brother Rui, this...Although you have said it before, is it really all right?" Fang Xueshi asked.

The third lady also looked over anxiously.

"It's all right."

Fang Rui thought about it for a while, and felt that the two of them should be reassured, so he broke the matter apart and said, "Our family has already prepared very well. We have money, food, and force..."

More than that?

His real strength is the sixth rank, the real middle third rank, and he has stepped into the top level of Changshan County with one foot.

This is the bottom line.

"Ten thousand steps back, even if the Taiping thieves break into the city, when the city is the most chaotic, those strongmen who want to take advantage of the fire will not lose their minds and focus on ordinary people like us... With that skill, Wouldn't it be nice to rob pawnshops, banks, and rich families?"

"The ones who came here were at best some rebels, hooligans...but these people..."

Fang Rui shook his head: "You can break your ears with the flick of your fingers!"

He was telling the truth.

It can be said: As long as you are honest and don't jump too much, even if you are just a high-ranking martial artist, there is a lot of possibility to escape during the most chaotic period after the city is broken.

Not to mention Fang Rui, with his strength, it is good not to bully others, and it is more than enough to protect an ordinary family like his own.

Seeing Fang Rui's confident appearance, Fang Xue's heart settled down, and so did the third lady, her eyes were full of admiration and admiration.

Fang Rui took it apart and analyzed it, and they found that it was true: Even the county town was destroyed, and in the worst case, it didn't seem to have any effect, so why worry about it?
So, I didn't panic at all, and even sat down and continued to do my needlework with my leisurely mind.

Seeing this scene, Fang Rui's eyes softened: "Sure enough, whether it's peacetime or troubled times, strength always comes first... With strength, you're not afraid anywhere..."

"Mother, third sister, I'll call that friend's family over to meet you, shall I?"

It's not far from Jiang Ping'an's house, just a few steps away. In fact, Fang Rui is not afraid of any problems if he is watching here.

But calling Mrs. Jiang to talk to Mrs. Fang Xue and San Niangzi, and to get to know each other, can also divert their attention and worry less about external things.

"it is good."

Fang Xue and San Niangzi naturally agreed.

……

Go out.

Fang Rui went to Jiang Pingan's house.

Before he took two steps, he saw a street slugger with a bit of a naughty body, but he was wearing a soap coat, with a big word for "poor" on his chest, swaggering like a crab, and a follower followed him.

Seeing Fang Rui, his domineering look subsided instantly, a big smile appeared on his face, and he bowed his head, very politely.

"This...is Master Fang Rui, right?! Yamen Jiang and I specifically mentioned your...oh!"

As he said that, he slapped his forehead: "The villain's surname is Yan, and the single name is Song. You can call me Xiao Yan."

In fact, Jiang Ping'an's confession was only one aspect, and more importantly: Jiang Ping'an mentioned intentionally or unintentionally that Fang Rui was at least a high-grade martial artist.

Originally, even so, Yan Song shouldn't be allowed to lower his profile like this.

Can……

Last night, he moved a bit slower, and didn't have time to act, but he might as well know: there are a few gangsters who are cronies and hooligans, who suddenly became poor masters. Once they got power, they couldn't identify their identities, and then... they were beaten to death.

——Obviously, dysentery Liu is not an exception.

This sounded the alarm for Yan Song.

So, even if he doesn't have that kind of brain, lessons learned from the past will teach him to understand current affairs and the situation.

Reach out and don't hit the smiling man.

Although Fang Rui didn't know why Yan Song was so polite, he wouldn't show his face, let alone call him 'Xiao Yan' without EQ.

"It's me...Brother Yan is busy when I have something to do. I'll go to Jiang Yamen's house to visit, so I won't delay your work..." He didn't think about building a deep friendship with this person, so he said a few words casually, then left.

Behind him, there was still a faint voice.

"Master Yan, even if there is a relationship with the servant Jiang, but judging from the current situation, that person is hard to protect himself, and he might be gone one day... Do we need to be so polite to a person who relies on his relationship?"

"Bah! You kid knows what a fart?! I heard that he is at least a high-level martial artist... In this world, no matter how it changes, one thing will not change, that is: the fist is bigger..."

……

Fang Rui came to Jiang Ping'an's house, and when he mentioned his future intentions, Jiang's sister-in-law readily agreed, and went out with the two little ones.

There are two little ones, a boy, seven or eight years old, named Niu Dun; and a girl, only five or six years old, about the same age as Fang Ling and Nannai, named Xiaodou Sprout.

——In this era, most of the names are like this, simple and unpretentious, with some meanings of taking cheap names and making a living.

After locking the door, Fang Rui led Sister Jiang and the three of them over.

When I came to the gate of the courtyard, I suddenly heard the sound of crying and begging from the courtyard on the left, which sounded familiar.

"Aunt Zhao?!"

Fang Rui's eyes flashed, and he had some guesses in his mind: "Sister-in-law Jiang, you go in first, I'll take a look over there."

"Xiao Fang, do you know Aunt Zhao? I'll go with you, so I can talk to you if you have something to do." Sister Jiang said.

"also."

Fang Rui and Jiang's sister-in-law came to the side yard and entered the door.

Just see:
The grey-haired Aunt Zhao was stooped, knelt on the ground, pulled Yan Song's arm and begged, "Master, my family is really out of money, can you slow down? I owe you, I will sign and draw..."

Next to them, there are two girls, one is eight or nine years old, the other is twelve or thirteen years old. They are sallow and thin, looking timid, holding hands and cowering together like two quails.

"No money? Don't you have two daughters? You can get someone to pay for..."

"Brother Yan,"

Fang Rui sighed softly, and said, "I know Aunt Zhao... How much is it, I'll pay for them!"

After all, he is not hard-hearted, and he is willing to help San Niangzi's family acquaintance if he can.

The valet was about to speak.

Yan Song pulled the other party for a while, with a smile on his face, and said first: "Hey, Master Fang, what do you say? How can I take your money?"

"Forget about it. Come on, Aunt Zhao, get up quickly,"

He knelt down, helped Aunt Zhao up with both hands, and patted the dust on her body kindly: "Hey, you have friendship with Lord Fang, why didn't you tell me earlier? Otherwise, it wouldn't be like this... Big The water flushed the Dragon King Temple, didn’t it?”

This face-changing skill is really... amazing!
Turning around, the matter was solved so easily, Aunt Zhao was completely stunned.

Even Jiang's sister-in-law next to her felt her face twitch... However, in her heart, there was an inexplicable sense of refreshment.

"Okay, I can't make it difficult for you. Take the money for tea." Fang Rui took out a handful of money and stuffed it.

He is a person with clear grievances and grievances, and he doesn't want to owe favors for such a small matter.

"Hey, you are really particular. Thank you, Mr. Fang... Then, you are busy, so I'll go first?"

As Yan Song said, he led his followers, skipped the courtyard where Fang Rui lived, and went straight to the next house without asking any questions.

"Aunt Zhao, it's over, it's okay..." Sister Jiang took Aunt Zhao's hand and comforted her.

"Pass, passed?!"

Aunt Zhao was still a little dizzy until now, but at least she came back to her senses, and hurriedly pulled her two daughters over to kowtow to Fang Rui: "Quick! Come and thank your benefactor!"

I am grateful, needless to say.

Gossip, Fang Rui bid farewell to Aunt Zhao, and led Sister Jiang and the three out. When they returned to their own yard, the yard on the right was also filled with shouting and sobbing—if you carefully discerned, you could still hear Yan Song's voice.

"Over there, is the old man Sun's family... His family is also suffering. The eldest son was recruited, and his life and death were unknown in the first wave of bandit suppressing officers... Now, the second son may also be recruited..."

Sister Jiang sighed.

"It's all poor people..."

Fang Rui sighed, but it was only a sigh, and immediately led Sister Jiang and his sister into the house, and locked the door behind them.

Didn't go to watch the fun - he wasn't the kind of person who watched the beheading and applauded it, dipping the steamed buns in human blood.

He didn't mind his own business either—Old Man Sun's family was not related to him, and he had no friendship at all.

Still the same sentence: He is not the Holy Mother, there are many poor people in this world, and he shelters his family; friends, relatives, neighbors, and friends who can help will help; other strangers, but they can’t be controlled...

……

Leading Jiang's sister-in-law and three people, they just entered the gate of the courtyard.

Fang Xueshi and San Niangzi came out to welcome them: "Brother Rui, are you back?"

Before, they had also heard movement from Aunt Zhao's house next door, but Fang Rui wasn't there, so they didn't dare to go there rashly, fearing that they wouldn't be of help, so they dragged themselves in.

Fang Rui talked about Aunt Zhao's family, and introduced Sister Jiang and Sister Jiang to them.

The three of them were talking, and soon, they chatted together.

Between women, especially: Relationships are always quick when there is mutual interest in each other.

Niu Dun and Xiaodou Sprout were taken to the back room to play with Fang Ling and Nannai.

Originally, Niu Dun was older and brought his younger sister here because he wanted to challenge Fang Ling's position as the "Kid King". As soon as I talked about it, the two 'ignorant' little guys were taken aback for a while...

……

In the big sun.

The golden sunlight covers the entire yard, casting circles of flickering light and shadows, jumping among the vegetation.

In the backyard room, Fang Xueshi, San Niangzi, and Sister-in-Law Jiang were doing needlework and gossiping; in the back room, Fang Ling, Nannan, Niu Dun, Xiaodouya, and several children were playing.

Fang Rui was sitting in the main room in the front yard, guarding the door while flipping through medical books. Sometimes, when he heard a sound approaching from outside, he raised his head to listen, and lowered his head after confirming that the sound had gone away.

Quiet and leisurely, the years are quiet and good.

outside.

The news of the Taiping thieves besieging the city spread quickly, and the chaos in the city intensified.

Under the blue sky and broad daylight, countless crimes are breeding.

Crying, yelling, the sound of breaking and looting... Some, even listening, are not far away...

Also: in the direction of the city gate, faint shouts of killing can be heard from time to time...

Intertwine into a ball.

This kind of sound came into the courtyard where Fang Rui was, but it didn't cause panic. Instead, it gradually got used to by everyone, as if... it became a kind of background music.

reason?

Children may be out of naivety and ignorance...

Fang Xue and San Niangzi were all because: Fang Rui was guarding the front yard - he was always calm and kept his word, this impression gave the two of them a great sense of security.

As for Jiang's sister-in-law, she was simply infected by this relaxed and breezy atmosphere.

……

Mid morning.

In this yard, two thieves tried to break through the door, Fang Rui went straight out, interrupted the hands and feet of those who came, and threw him on the road outside the door, humming.

Under such deterrence, no local hooligans dared to come to this area to stroke the tiger's beard, and even Aunt Zhao and other nearby families were exposed, so they were safe.

……

The morning passed quickly.
