Chapter 77 Frontier City 【Second Update】

Traveling all the way north, we soon arrived at the border town.

Su had already bought a house in the border town one step ahead, and when Ji Fushou and his party came to the border town, they moved in directly.

After settling down, Ji Fushou took Ji Sibo and Ji Qiongzhi out to take a stroll around the city.

Probably because it is located in the north where the land is vast and sparsely populated, the buildings in the border town are more comfortable and open, and the voices of pedestrians on the street are much louder, which is different from the capital and the south.

Enthusiastic, unrestrained, not afraid of life.

Ji Sibo looked back at the two bodyguards behind him strangely, with a very puzzled expression on his face, "Is the girl in this city lame? Why do you always wink at the bodyguards? Give them melons and fruits!"

Ji Sibo looked back at the two bodyguards again. He was not as handsome as him, his skin was not as fair as his, his bearing was not as graceful as his, and even the clothes he wore were not as luxurious as his. Except that he was taller and stronger than him, there was nothing wrong with him. Those who are as good as him can still receive handkerchiefs and fruits like this?

Why do all the girls on the street look at the bodyguard?

Not at all reserved!
Ji Sibo was so unconvinced.

Ji Fushou raised his eyebrows, and walked towards a girl on the side of the road who was staring at Nighthawk openly. The girl was not afraid to see the five of them. Seeing Ji Fushou smiling at her, she also smiled.

"This little lady is being polite." Ji Fushou nodded slightly.

The little lady returned the gift heartily, and Ji Fushou asked with a smile, "I see that all the little ladies I met along the way liked to look at the two bodyguards behind me, and some of the little ladies threw handkerchiefs, melons and fruits. , I don’t know if it’s a custom here?”

The little lady's eyes lit up suddenly, "These two big brothers are not your bodyguards, but free bodyguards?"

Seeing Ji Fushou nodding, the little lady looked up at the two nighthawks, "I wonder if there is a marriage between the two elder brothers?"

His tone and expression were filled with anticipation.

"What if there is no marriage?" Ji Sibo looked even weirder.

The little lady turned her eyes around the two, "If there is no marriage, don't you know if a little lady like me is enough to be a lady?"

The little lady is talking about marriage with a man in the street?
Both Ji Sibo and Ji Qiongzhi opened their mouths slightly. Although Daqi was open-minded, if this kind of behavior was in the capital, people would definitely be ridiculed.

Ji Fushou didn't change his expression, and said with a smile, "They all have beautiful wives and young children in their family."

The little lady sighed in disappointment, but she didn't even see her red-faced.

Ji Sibo couldn't help it anymore, "How can you ask a man in the street if he is married? Even if you fall in love with Mr. Ruyi, you should let your parents speak up."

The little lady gave him a blank look, "If a man like this kind of powerful and powerful doesn't hurry up, why should he still look at a young man like you who has no strength to restrain a chicken?"

At the end, he sighed again, "Sure enough, all good men were snatched away early."

Ji Sibo is so angry, what does it mean that he has no power to restrain a chicken, he can beat four or five local ruffians by himself, even if he is alone against a tiger, bear and blind man.

The little lady is also a wonderful person, presumably seeing Ji Sibo's displeasure, she explained with a smile, "If you listen to the young master's accent, you are not from the north. We are a border town, and we may face the invasion of Xiliang people at any moment. , I hope that my husband-in-law will be a man of strength and strength, so that he can protect the family."

Ji Sibo was taken aback, "So that's the reason?"

The little lady laughed, "That's the reason."

Ji Fushou saw that she acted generously, so he took advantage of the opportunity to invite, "We are merchants from the capital. We are newcomers, and we don't know the situation here. Can you ask the young lady to guide us? This is a reward."

With Ji Fushou's hand, three taels of silver appeared in his palm.

The little lady took it, and nodded generously, "Okay, I will guide you, and you can ask me if you don't understand anything. I grew up here. By the way, my surname is Su, just call me Miss Su."

Ji Fushou also reported to his family.

Ji Fushou asked her as he walked, "I think the girls here are very generous."

Mrs. Su knew that she was talking about what she just said, and admitted without hesitation, "One side of the water and soil supports the other side. Here, if Xiliang suddenly invades and the defenders are too busy, the men in the family will go up to help, even the women. I will do what I can.”

When Ji Sibo heard about the battle, he became interested, and suddenly interrupted and asked, "For example?"

"For example, when the people of Xiliang attacked the city, we women would help boil the golden juice, and then let the men in the family transport it to the city wall for the defenders. Or take care of the injured defenders. If the defenders can withstand it When the Xiliang people invade, we will hide at home and wait for the Xiliang people to retreat. If we cannot resist, we will come out of the house and see if there is anything we can help."

Those words made Ji Sibo and Ji Qiongzhi stand in awe.

Ji Qiongzhi couldn't help asking, "Since the border town is so dangerous, why don't you leave?"

Mrs. Su glanced at Ji Qiongzhi in surprise, and then smiled, "It's hard to leave the homeland. Our ancestors have been here for generations. Where can we go if we leave? If we all leave, this city will be empty except for the defenders. "

Ji Sibo and Ji Qiongzhi didn't understand this kind of feeling very well. In their view, they would encounter danger at any time in the border town. If this was the case, there was no need to worry day and night when they left the border town.

At this time, Ji Fushou said, "You two think things are too simple, you don't mean to leave if you want to leave. Daqi's household registration must be certified by a house. If the people in the border town want to leave the border town to go to other places If the place takes root, they will buy a house in that place, and then move their household registration there. Besides, the imperial court will not allow the border towns to have no people, and the large-scale migration will definitely be stopped by the imperial court."

Mrs. Su said softly, "This Mrs. Ji knows a lot, indeed, ordinary people like us, how can we afford to buy a house elsewhere.

A golden nest and a silver nest are not as good as your own doghouse. Our ancestors can live here. There is no reason why we can’t. It’s been more than 200 years. The people of Xiliang can’t break through our border city, and there is Master Wang guarding us. "

"It would be great if we could completely drive back the Xiliang people." Ji Sibo pursed his lips.

Su Niangzi's voice was also low, "How can it be so easy to repel them, their cavalry is so powerful, they always attack us when they are not full, and run away in a gust of food, I don't know how much People died under their iron hooves."

Miss Su's face still showed a faint hatred.

For the people in the border towns, the blood feud with the people of Xiliang is already a sworn feud, and the only result is life and death.
