"Pit" you for three lives and three lives

Chapter 15

That night, when Ah Li's father came home, Ah Li's mother mentioned to him the matter of Zuo Jiasi's elder brother.

"This matter involved the foreign court, and I didn't dare to say enough." A Li Niang said when she was helping him change his clothes, "But I always feel uncomfortable. Those barbarians took our homeland, killed Our people. They have a sworn hatred against us. Now that they dare to come, it’s fine. How dare they show off their power on our territory? Colliding with the messenger? This crime is ridiculous, who sentenced it, I really want to see it. "

Ari's father didn't take it seriously, nor was Ali's mother so filled with righteous indignation, he just said: "I will ask tomorrow, madam, calm down. Give me a shoulder beat, sore."

A Li Niang smiled and thumped him, "Go! Who is your maid?"

"Yes, that's over there." Ari's father didn't hide, and stretched, "Madam has wonderful hands."

Of course Ah Li Niang didn't really care about him.Hearing what he said, I laughed early, "It's so difficult to say a nice word to me. I really don't know how you wrote those articles."

He has been pressed carefully.

Ari's father didn't answer, and closed his eyes to rest.After a while, seeing that Ah Li Niang had calmed down, she said unhurriedly: "The envoys who came this time are not all barbarians."

Ah Li Niang knew that he was talking about something, so she responded, "Yes."

Wang Tan has never liked long speeches, but this time he seemed to be a little bit lamented, and he said sporadic words: "The Cui family of Qinghe, the Lu family of Fanyang—all have descendants who served in Beiyan. This time, the two families also sent a few Promising juniors, come along with them. They are both from the Qingqi wealthy family, and their ancestors also had contacts with them back then. But now I look at the youngsters of these two families, and the appearance is very different from the children in our family—the one in the Cui family is called Cui Chen's is only 13 years old, only two years older than Ah Li, and has already been on the battlefield. Those gray eyes look like a wolf cub..."

"Lu Xuan is very elegant, and his conversation is extraordinary..." He paused for a long time.A Li Niang also stopped her hands earlier, she was listening to him, but she didn't know how to ask.Seeing Wang Tan shaking his head, "I hide my thoughts too deeply, and I'm not a good friend."

A Li Niang was silent for a long time before she said: "How can Cui and Lu's family work for those barbarians?"

Wang Tan said: "We are nothing more than expatriates who abandoned their families and crossed south to survive. We were unable to recover the Central Plains, and the northern land was occupied for 60 years. What right do we have to ask them to observe festivals? Besides... the Hu people are not what they used to be He’s a barbarian.” Then he said, “The Murong Jue who came this time is good at poetry and prose, he is familiar with classics, and his conversation and manner are not inferior to my first-class family in the dynasty. Not only the Murong family, but also the Fu family of the Northern Qin Dynasty. The prime minister of the Han people was also appointed. Ritual and music codes, everything I learned from my dynasty."

"People's minds are at peace, and they are used to it. I'm afraid that in the future, the Northern Expedition will not be able to have the same situation as 40 years ago..."

Only now did Ah Li Niang understand what he was worried about, and she didn't take it seriously.However, seeing that Wang Tan was really sleepy, he didn't say much, he just followed his eyebrows and said, "I don't think the Cui and Lu families are sincerely attached to Beiyan, you might as well find out what they say."

Wang Tan smiled and nodded, "Madam is right."

The Wang family is crowded, and they all come to Wang Tan for help.But Ah Li Niang spoke up, and it was the first time after they got married.

Ah Li Niang is really capable, and she manages everything in the house properly.Back then, Wang Tan went to war with the general for a year and a half. He thought that when he returned this time, his family would know how lonely he was without him, but when he went back, he found that everything was in order—that is, Wang Yan was about to lose sight of him.Wang Tan was very depressed.

He also likes to do things to please his wife and daughter on weekdays, but Ari Niang is too calm and Ari is too slow to react much, seriously ignoring his appeal for a sense of existence.

The last time he wanted to build a bamboo house for his wife and daughter, it was rare that Ari Niang and Ari finally reacted, but they all refused firmly.

It really hurts my self-esteem.

This time his wife and daughter even took the initiative to ask him for help. Wang Tan looked calm, but his heart immediately boiled—finally he was able to perform in front of his wife and daughter!
So people asked early in the morning the next day.Before noon, he had figured out what was going on and released Zuo Jiasi's brother.

This matter is not complicated to say.

After the twelfth lunar month, every family will start to buy new year's goods-this is the first major event before the beginning of spring.

Separation of families is not popular in this era, and "big clans" are emphasized. There are hundreds of people in a family with a slightly similar family background.There are thousands of people in families like the Wang family.On New Year's Eve, hundreds of thousands of people gather together to worship their ancestors and have a reunion dinner.If you don't prepare things in advance, the banquet alone will be too busy.

Therefore, in the twelfth lunar month, the market is full of people driving sheep carts and ox carts to move things home.Extremely crowded and lively.

The few teenagers who came with Murong Jue had never seen the scenery in the south, so they made an appointment to go to the downtown area to have a look.

Horseback riding is popular in the north.

These gentry were able to preserve their families and guests under the iron cavalry of the Hu people, forcing the Hu people to make peace with them, so they were naturally extremely tough.Anyone who can walk can ride a horse.When they got to the south, they didn't change this habit.

But downtown, is that a place where you can ride a horse?A few people walked a few steps before being blocked.

Or Cui Chen.This young man was used to running amok, seeing that he couldn't get in, he whipped his horse and rushed forward.He was excellent at riding, pitching all the way, overturning all the pavements on both sides, trampling the ground with leeks, scallions, eggs and meat.The crowd was frightened and fled in all directions.He rushed to the street, looking back at the tragic situation, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, feeling nothing but leisure.Seeing an ox cart parked in front of the central store, he felt it was an eyesore, so he rode back again.

——He should think about why people in the south like to ride bullock carts.

Because this thing is stable!
Are cows like horses?That's because the more you smoke it, the less it will move. If you whip it hard, it kicks you away, and then turns around and continues to chew grass slowly.

Cui Chen twitched hard a few times, and the ox cart only rubbed against it slowly.He has a violent temper, and when he sees that he can't move, he kicks with his feet. This time he annoyed the cow.The cow slowly turned its head, and gently arched the horse's belly——

Startled.

If it wasn't for Cui Chen's good riding skills, he might fall to his death.

Zuo Jiasi's brother had chosen the pork in the shop, and as soon as he went out, he saw a young man in fresh clothes waiting outside.The boy's lips were red and his teeth were white, but his gray eyes were as vicious as wolf cubs.Before he could figure out what was going on, the boy raised his whip.

As a dignified adult, of course he couldn't let the child be beaten, Zuo Jiasi's brother fought back.

He didn't notice that Cui Chen didn't come alone.Lu Xuan also followed at that time, but instead of stepping forward to help, he calmly found the little officials in the market and bought all the things Cui Chen smashed.

He has a handsome appearance, gentle words and deeds, and he is not an ordinary boy.The petty official didn't understand his background, and he didn't dare to argue with him.

He bid handsomely.But in a short while, Cui Chen's misfortune was settled by him.

Later, the county magistrate brought people.I heard that they are sons of Cui and Lu's family. Seeing that they were born rich and noble, and their conversation and behavior are also extraordinary, they didn't dare to ask more questions.He dealt with it hastily and locked up Zuo Jiasi's brother.

Lu Xuan and Cui Chen didn't defend him either, the people they brought along waved their sleeves and whipped away as if nothing like this had happened.

What happened to Zuo Jiasi's brother was nothing short of innocent.

If it was Cui Chen who deliberately turned black and white, it would be fine to frame him to vent his anger.But from the beginning to the end, Cui Chen didn't take this person seriously.After calling to vent his anger, he threw his hands away.After that, the county officials played diligently.This thing is a little disgusting.

Ari's father looked down on Cui Chen's behavior from the bottom of his heart, and he hated the county magistrate's flattery even more.But in the end, Cui Chen is just a 13-year-old kid.If you really want to make use of the problem, you will inevitably drop the price.

What's more, as the head of the general's mansion, Shi also followed Huan Jing in the Northern Expedition. Wang Tan knew the local influence of these wealthy families best.Whether it was the Hu people going south or the Han people going north, they had to rely on their influence.These people still try not to offend.

Therefore, Ah Li's father only sent someone to hold the county magistrate accountable, knocking the mountains and shaking the tigers.

The family traditions of the northern and southern gentry are different.Those in the south place more emphasis on evaluation—whose family's children are virtuous, and through the mouths of celebrities, everyone will soon know.The north is more important family background.

When Cui Chen and Lu Xuan first arrived in Jianye, they had been discussed from head to toe by the people in the south.Hearing what they said was interesting, I paid more attention to it.

The story of Cui Chen riding horses in the street and domineeringly beating people was quickly spread back to Cui Chen's own ears through the gossip in the scholar circle.

At that time, he had already forgotten what happened that day.Hearing the words with great interest, he turned his head and complained to Lu Xuan, "A group of long-tongued men." He waved the whip in his hand casually, and went to the street to play again.

In Qingzhou City, he is well-known as the overlord, and he likes to carry a bow and arrow and run wildly on his horse.If you see something unpleasant on the road—whether human or animal—you just draw your bow and shoot an arrow.The officials and people in the city couldn't avoid it, so they made a drum specially. When they saw him, they beat the drum wildly as a warning, shouting "Zhou Chu is here" - they thought he was the victim of Qingzhou.

Cui Shi also had a headache for him.

——He has practiced riding and archery since he was a child, just like the secluded ranger in Cao Zijian's works, he was born with the back of an ape and the waist of a bee, agile and brave.You can see that he acted recklessly when he was young, but he is also very smart and knows how to measure. Every time he has extraordinary insights, he can make adults shine.

He easily tamed the young men in the city, formed a cavalry team of 18, and called himself Flying Tiger General.Last winter, when horse bandits plundered Qingzhou, he led these fifteen or sixteen-year-old youths into the group of bandits, and returned with the heads of the bandits.

Such a child was born in troubled times and was destined to be successful.He was born in the north where the barbarians were ravaging, and he is the best candidate to protect the family and prosper the family in the future.

The Cui family is full of expectations for him.

...but he is so disturbing!How many good things have to be done to him before he is sensible!
So headache.

Throwing him to the south this time is to let him gain knowledge and experience more, and secondly, it may not mean that the graceful and Confucian style in the south will influence him.

It's a pity that Jiangdong's wealthy family obviously didn't have the awareness to teach the children for the Cui family.

Father Ari released Zuo Jiasi's elder brother, and naturally he turned around and told his wife and daughter.

A Li Niang complained about Zuo Jiasi's elder brother, "Why did the Cui family have such a reckless son?"

Ari dad had nothing to say.

In fact, he felt that in the environment where the Cui family lived, children with this personality would be more promising. When dealing with wolves, even if they couldn't be tougher than them, they definitely had to have a ruthless wildness.If Cui Chen is like Wang Yan, then there is a problem.

Naturally, Ari's father still hated Cui Chen's temperament.

Because this time I was helping Ari with errands, when the two of them were talking, Ari was listening.

As a person who cleared the customs for one week, it is impossible for Ari not to know Cui Chen, and it is impossible not to know her father's concerns.

She felt sorry for Zuo Jia in her heart, but she couldn't do anything.

——The people she met in the Southern Dynasty were all gentle and elegant young men, even that murderous Wei Lang, who was always humble and polite when getting along with others.You see, the family is powerful, and when it is prominent, it is like cooking oil in a fire, and flowers are blooming, and sometimes it is only a thought to abolish and establish the emperor.But it is rare to bully weak people like this, and it has a good reputation among the people.This is the basic upbringing of being a human being.

Cui Chen has already broken through the lower limit.

Ahri came to this world, and it was the first time that she felt disgusted with someone.

Brother Zuo Jiasi's matter was settled, so she was naturally in a hurry to go back.

In Ari's father's opinion, this matter is just a small effort, but to Zuo Jiasi's family, it is a kind of reconstruction.

Kindness without saying thanks.Zuo Jiasi only kept it in his heart, before leaving, he went to the main courtyard and kowtowed outside.

Ali looked a little sad.Zuo Jiasi came, but only stayed for one night.The two of them didn't even know each other well enough to have a heart-to-heart talk.With Zuo Jiasi's temperament, after owed such a big favor, I'm afraid she won't be able to match her sisters in the future.

The sisterhood between her and Zuo Jiasi probably ended here.

Ari ordered people to get off the ox cart, and personally sent Zuo Jiasi back—knowing that Zuo Jiasi was worried about retiring the engagement, she still wanted to support her once.

Although Cui Chen laughed at the scholars of the Southern Dynasty as "men with long tongues", he didn't want to be looked down upon by these men with long tongues.

This day did not choose to be in the city.He only took three or five entourages to the outskirts of the hillside, chasing eagles and rabbits.

The hills and slopes are gentle, and you can indulge in horse racing.What's even more rare is that even in winter, there are green grass and trees.Cui Chen had a great time hunting.

After crossing a hillside, Cui Chen squinted his eyes and snorted coldly when he saw a bullock cart swaying slowly on the winding dirt road downhill.

——Since he was startled by a bull last time, he was carried by the bullock cart.

He drew a long arrow from behind and aimed it silently at the bull's eye.

Ari was chatting with Zuo Jiasi in the car.

Her mother was afraid of the damp and cold winter in the south of the Yangtze River, and she couldn't stand it, so she specially turned out a long-haired fox fur for her to wear.She has been rounder than others since she was a child, the baby fat on her face has not faded, and her skin is white, greasy and rosy. With such a wrap, she looks even more delicate and beautiful.

There was nothing to talk about for a while, and she felt embarrassed.The carriage is thick and soft, so warm that people sweat on their foreheads.She lifted the curtain of the car and looked out.

Cui Chen glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw Ari.The bowstring in his hand loosened.

People say how beautiful Jiangnan is.But in fact, before the Great Migration, when it comes to beauty, it was women from Qi who were even better.Don't you hear it said in "Poetry", "If you want to take a wife, you must have the ginger"?The Cui Chen sisters are all rare beauties, and he has vision.But the people of Qingqi generation are fierce and courageous, and the girl's house is also in full bloom like summer flowers.When the horse is galloping, it is like a burning flame, dazzling.Cui Chen is still very unfamiliar with such a misty alley, looking back at the water with an umbrella.

grab.

Don't even need to think about it, what Cui Chen lacks most in his temper is tenderness and worry.

The long arrow in his hand aimed at the leather belt buckle on the bullock cart, and when he loosened the string, the arrow shot through like a flying rainbow.

As soon as Ari lowered the car curtain, he heard the guards outside commotion, so he lifted the curtain to ask.

Before he could open his mouth, he saw a fine horse rushing down the slope. Immediately, the young man was dressed in a black uniform, agile and handsome.As soon as the rein is pulled, the horse's hooves will be raised high.

The vigorous body of the horse easily passed over the ox cart, and the only sound of hooves was heard when it landed.He turned the horse's head, stopped in front of the bullock cart willfully, narrowed his gray eyes like wolf cubs, and looked at it unkindly.

The guards immediately became alert and asked, "Who is it?"

Cui Chen was not in a hurry to answer, he just stepped lightly on the horse's hoof and looked at it to himself.

Ari met his eyes, feeling ashamed for some reason.Immediately lowered the curtains.Seeing Zuo Jiasi's worried expression, he shook her hand and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm alone. It will be settled soon."

Zuo Jiasi nodded.

After a while, I heard the boy from the outside say: "Which little lady is in the car?"

The guards didn't answer, they had already secretly grasped the long swords on their bodies.

The law and order in Jianye City is very good.

In fact, the entire Jiangnan has good law and order.Although there are often refugees who flee, they seldom fall into the grass. Once Jiangnan is stable, they can farm well and don't have to kill people to survive.Second, when they fled their hometowns, they still missed their homeland in their hearts, and they hated the Hu people.

But this young man has snow skin and gray eyes, and he has some exotic charm.Looking at his young age, that long arrow was easily chiseled into the shaft of the chariot, which shows his strength and arrow skills.In this era, such beauty and bravery are difficult to make people feel good.

Cui Chen has always been not afraid of making things big, and he wants to show it even more in front of girls—it's a pity that the people in the north are different from those in the south, and he doesn't know that girls in the south don't love courage, but refinement.

This is a big misunderstanding.

Seeing that the guard didn't answer, he played with the whip and said with a smile, "If you don't tell me, I'm going to snatch it."

The Dongshan area is the territory of the Xie family.

When Ari went out, Ari Niang asked Wang Yan to say hello to Xie Lian—after all, she was a little girl, and when she went out, she had to be taken care of by a reassuring person.

Xie Lian guarded him all the way, and when he stopped on the road, he knew it was not good.
