Ma'am help, the general is in trouble again

Chapter 170 Birds and People
Zheng Quchi picked up her two big sacks and put them on her shoulders. Others looked at her like a hill, but she was relaxed.

"I got this card after going through a lot of hardships... You don't know my situation. I have only saved a few wooden utensils under my name in the past few months. There are too many things that can be sold. If not, it would be great if the first assessment went smoothly."

"In the past few months? Are you a first-class craftsman who just took the exam?" Mu Gaoyi asked her.

Wasn't she just an ordinary carpenter before?
Zheng Quchi shook his head.

Just as Mu Gaoyi breathed a sigh of relief, she heard her say: "I didn't take the exam as a first-class craftsman, but an entry-level carpenter. I used to be a carpenter who repaired others in the village. I didn't have any wooden works. I haven't been to the county for assessment, I didn't expect that this time I skipped the second level and was directly promoted from a worker to a first-level apprentice of a craftsman."

The three walked and chatted.

"Thinking that you have been honing your carpentry skills for ten years in a quiet country where no one is disturbed by the world, and you are not in a hurry for success. I once heard an old craftsman say that anyone with perseverance will surely succeed after ten years of sharpening a knife. Great weapon."

"Ah Qing, you are the only one who can hold your temper. Although you have amazing skills, but you are not tempted by fame and fortune, you have been concentrating on polishing your skills for so long."

Obviously, Mu Gaoyi and Shi Hetong would not believe that the former Zheng Quchi was really incapable of taking the test, but that there must be a deep meaning behind Zheng Quchi's actions.

Zheng Quchi: "..."

She didn't even know she thought so.

"Ah Qing, will you stay in our camp forever?"

"There are...some things that I can't decide on my own. Right now, I can only take one step at a time."

After hearing this, Shi Hetong understood what she meant, so he changed the subject and said, "I'm already looking forward to the Jichun craftsman's union tomorrow."

Mu Gaoyi immediately smiled: "Me too."

Shi Hetong sighed and said: "We used to avoid this topic in fear, but now we start to look forward to it. Tell me, have we changed, or has something changed?"

Mu Gaoyi looked at Ah Qing, and said, "We have changed, because we have an extra genius, Ah Qing, in the craftsman group of our camp."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Quchi quickly declined the title: "I am not a genius, and a real genius is not like me."

Seeing her demeanor, it doesn't seem like she is humble, but she really thinks so.

"Then tell me, what does a real genius look like?" Mu Gaoyi was curious about what a genius in her mind should look like.

Zheng Quchi thought of someone, she said: "I don't know, maybe it should be like Gongshu Jiruo, he is so young, but he is already a household name."

When Shi Hetong heard it, he agreed, and he said: "Indeed, Gongshu is just as good. If any craftsman mentions him and doesn't admire and sigh, we may have the opportunity to meet Gongshu as soon as possible at the craftsman meeting in Jichun tomorrow." gone."

"That's great, I haven't seen the big head and six arms of this Gongshu leader yet? I'll go and see it tomorrow." Mu Gaoyi's eyes glowed.

"Haven't you ever seen Gongshuojiruo?"

As the leader of all the workers, he is equivalent to an existence like a public figure. Why do you feel that he is quite mysterious in person?
Mu Gaoyi was surprised: "Of course not, have you seen it? He is the leader of craftsmen, the public loser of Beiyuan Kingdom, and he never shows up on non-important occasions. How can it be so easy to see?"

But I really saw it.

And it has two faces.

One is Gongshu Jiruo, who is wrapped thickly and round like a stupid white bear, and the other is Gongshu Jiruo, who wears someone else's face and pretends to be someone else.

Perhaps, the two people she met were not the real public loser.

She came to Jichun Artisan Association this time with three purposes in mind.

One is to make money.

The second is to fulfill Uncle Mu's last wish.

The third is to come and see the real Gongshu Jiruo.

When he was in Fu County, he used the pseudonym "Master Li", and invited her to Yongchun, Julu again and again, to join the Jichun craftsman union.

At that time, she didn't know his real identity, but felt that he was "suspicious".

He approached her, learned that she was in trouble, and said that he would protect her well, take her away from the vortex of troubles between Yuwen Sheng and the Mo family, and repay her for saving her life, but she explicitly rejected them all.

But later, he joined forces with Gong Shulan to harm her, was it on purpose or not?
She doesn't know.

She didn't want to think about it, since she came, she just wanted to make a clear conclusion with him.

If she can't get it right, and Yu Wensheng's power can't get it right, and the other party insists on avenging Gong Shulan, then she will tell people that she killed him, and it's none of anyone's business.

She couldn't let the public loser involve her family and Fu County in this matter.

Of course, she won't be arrogant and say stupid things like one life for another. After all, they were the first to provoke all the troubles. She was almost cheated to death. Could it be that she can't fight back?

If things don't make sense in the end with "reasons", it's a big deal, she will die, let "Sang Xuanqing" and "Zheng Quchi" all disappear in this world, and from then on, she will hide her name and start a new life.

To be honest, this matter has to be dragged on forever, and she always has a knot in her heart.

"Oh, I'll see you tomorrow anyway, I'll definitely pay my respects secretly, and ask him to bless my journey as a craftsman." Mu Gaoyi looked excited to see the patriarch.

Zheng Quchi squinted at him, and said, "Tomorrow, you should stay away from me and Hetong, so that others will not think that our craftsmen in Ye Kingdom all look like they have never seen the world."

"Hey, Ah Qing, you can forget about it, but He Tong and we all agree in private that thanks to the leader, we will definitely be shortlisted this year. If you don't believe me, you can ask him?"

Shi Hetong's face froze, and when he saw Zheng Quchi looking over, he said shamefully, "This... If you believe it, you will have it, if you don't believe it, you won't have it, so it doesn't hurt if you believe it."

Zheng Quchi: "...can you guys make a difference?"

Wei Yao heard the conversation and came over. When Mu Gaoyi and Shi Hetong saw him, they immediately calmed down and saluted him.

Wei Yao cast a look at them, then looked at Ah Qing, the two of them immediately understood that this was to clear the scene.

They stretched out their hands to take Zheng Quchi's big burden, and gritted their teeth and carried it on their shoulders: "The guard Wei Jin is looking for you, Ah Qing, and we will go back to the room first. We will take your two big burdens back with you."

Zheng Quchi could also see that Weiyao had something to do with her, so he nodded: "Okay, thank you, please be careful, things are heavy, don't knock them over."

"Well, well, we got it."

After the two left, Wei Yao smiled and teased Zheng Quchi: "Chizi, now it seems that these two people are doing their best for you, if you want tools, they will bring them here immediately, don't help you carry them away again, unlike the beginning. "

Zheng Quchi heard that there was something in his words, she shrugged her shoulders, and said: "I know what you mean. They do have some flaws, snobbery, ambition, and scheming, but whoever has no flaws, at least they are serious in doing things, have Eyesight, courage, and mind are not bad as a whole, as a colleague, there is no problem."

"What about being friends?" Wei Yao asked her with a smile.

To be honest, he was surprised that she could see things so clearly.

In the eyes of some people, right and wrong are black and white and cannot be confused, and such people live a relatively simple and simple life.

He thought Zheng Quchi was such a simple person.

But her views and mentality in handling things are very slick like an old official who has been in the officialdom.

Only people who are not compatible can get along, and people who are not consistent in three views can only talk. She can accept all kinds of people by her side, but she keeps a line of defense in her heart.

She said: "Only through adversity can we be friends. If the other party gets along well with me because of scruples and wanting to please the people behind me, then for the time being, they can only be fellows who go to work together. My only friend at present. Only you, Brother Wei."

If Uncle Mu is still there, there will be one more teacher and friend for her.

They are all people who see her in trouble and deep in the marsh, and will definitely reach out to give her a hand. Even when no one believes in her, they will firmly believe in her.

The smile on Wei Yao's face deepened, only hearing her talk warmed his heart, he sighed lightly: "Brother Wei is really honored to be recognized as your friend by you."

Of course she knows who treats her sincerely without asking for anything in return, and doesn't care about her complicated past.

"Brother Wei, what can you do for me?" she asked.

Wei Yao remembered the business, and he patted his forehead: "Oh, that's right, the general seems to be a little uncomfortable, madam, do you want to go and see?"

The two of them meet in private, and they often get along easily like friends, brothers and sisters, without paying attention to each other's identities, but once they are in front of Yu Wensheng, they have to hold their hands, and they can't be so familiar with each other casually.

And he purposely called her "Ma'am" at this time, just to remind her that when a monk rings the clock every day, being a wife is responsible for one day.

Zheng Quchi blinked: "What happened to him?"

"He's lying down." That's all Wei Yao said.

All lying down?

Could it be that the injury has dragged on for a long time and has become more serious?
"I have medicine here, I'll go over and have a look."

As Zheng Quchi said, he ran forward, and Weiyao reminded him from behind: "The general is waiting room No. [-] on the left."

"I see."

After the people left, Wei Yao narrowed his eyes with a smile, like a cunning old fox: "Isn't this why I told you to cure the general's illness because I knew you had the medicine? It's hard for the general to pretend to be so in order to attract your concern." For a long time, you are really ruthless, and you have not moved until now, if you don't give you a push, you will not really wait until the day when the general is about to lie in the coffin, will you care about him?"

There are special rules for the medicinal materials at the military doctor's place. If there are any shortages, you have to report to the military supply department. If they are used for private use, you have to pay for the vacancy from your own pocket.

And this matter is in charge of by Wang Zebang.

Madam took the medicine, although the military doctor didn't say what the medicine was used for, but Wang Zebang was in charge of the internal affairs of the entire camp, so he knew it after a little inquiry.

He truthfully reported the fact that his wife took the medicine to the general.

After the general knew about it, whenever he looked for an opportunity these days, he acted weak and weak in front of his wife, telling me that I am sick, do you have any medicine?

But good guy, she has medicine, but she refuses to take it out.

Seeing that the general's mood became increasingly depressed and perverted, today he even found an excuse to vent his anger by smashing the goalposts in public.

He felt that today was a goal post, maybe tomorrow he should chop a living person. It's time for them, who are subordinates, to relieve the general's worries, or else they will be the ones who will suffer in the end.

He figured it out, Zheng Quchi had an elm head with a wooden heart, and if she refused to move, he could only add fuel to the flames and push her behind.

-

Zheng Quchi found the room in Superior Room No. [-]. The door was opened a gap and it was not locked. She felt strange, so she pushed it open a little——

She saw Yu Wensheng was standing by the window, facing out of the window, raised an arm, the wrist was arched, and there was a bird of indeterminate species resting on it.

It's not like a carrier pigeon or a sparrow. For her who has never seen a few kinds of birds, she can barely tell that it is a passerine.

"Who's there?"

Yu Wensheng asked without turning his head.

Zheng Quchi is very strange. Does this martial arts practitioner have a pair of smooth ears? She obviously didn't make any sound, but he found her peeping.

She immediately straightened her body and wanted to say something, for example, didn't Brother Wei say you were lying down?

But in the end, she just asked dryly: "Are you watching birds?"

But as soon as she finished speaking, why did she feel that the wording was weird, so she added another sentence: "It's pretty good, then take your time to appreciate it."

Seeing that he didn't look seriously ill, Zheng Quchi was about to close the door for him, but Yu Wencheng stopped him.

"You just came here, said a few words, then turned around and left?"

Yu Wencheng turned around and looked straight at her, his eyes made Zheng Quchi shudder.

"No, I'm afraid of disturbing you... Playing with your bird." She is not leaving now, nor is she staying.

Yu Wensheng said: "It's called Flycatcher. I specially trained it with a bird master. It's a kind of message transmission. It's here to deliver a message. Maybe it's been a long time since its owner was seen. Attached to my wrist, not far away for a long time..."

"Really?" She answered dryly.

"You said..." Yu Wensheng's long and narrow eyes were slightly raised, and he asked suspiciously: "Compared with people, who is more emotional?"

Zheng Quchi didn't think too much, she just discussed the matter: "This may divide people into birds. Some people are full of emotions and he wins. Some birds are raised with emotions and they win. There is no specific object for reference, so it is not easy to compare. "

Yu Wensheng smiled slightly at this time: "Then do you think, who has more affection for me than you?"

This time, he hit a straight ball and didn't give her any chance to talk about him.

Zheng Quchi pointed at the flycatcher puzzledly, and asked, "Why do you compare me with it? Could it be that in your eyes, I am the same as it?"

Well done Zheng Quchi.

These words simply express the wisdom rules when men and women quarrel. When it doesn't make sense, they express their feelings and positions.

A rhetorical question made Yu Wensheng speechless for a while.

At the same time, he raised his arm and let the flycatcher go.

"So, what are you doing here? Are you looking to see if I'm sick and dead, or do you want to take advantage of my weakness at the moment and directly piss me off?"
