"What, never retreat?"
When these words were printed on the page, everyone who read the letter jumped up.
Among them, the little girl in white and red skirt was the most fierce. "If third brother doesn't leave the border, how will he get a wife? How will he have children? How will he continue the family line?"
She recalled with her fingers, "The money given by the Wang family's aunt, as well as the military salary of the third brother over the years, I have saved for him, just to wait for him to get a wife."
Some couldn't help laughing, others gasped.
Speaking of which, Jiang Sheng had been saving money for Fang Heng to get a wife five years ago.
Dayu’s best sister!
Zheng Ruqian couldn't help but show his thumbs up and said with a playful smile, "With Jiang Sheng's worries, if the third son doesn't get a wife back soon, he won't be sorry to his sister."
The others echoed and laughed.
Only Jiang Sheng crossed his arms and thought fairly and impartially, "Speaking of which, the eldest brother and the second brother are older, so they should marry earlier than the third brother."
The laughter stopped abruptly.
Zheng Ruqian, who took the initiative to draw fire, twitched the corner of his mouth. Xu Mo, who was splashed by sparks, took two steps back slightly. Wen Zhiyun, who was panicking in his heart, wanted to get under the table.
"The eldest brother is twenty years old this year. All the children of the same age have been born. Brother Qihuai from Fengjing is also discussing marriage. Brother Anjun's invitations have been sent out..." She counted on her fingers.
Xu Mo cleared his throat, "Both of them are older than me."
Qi Huai, "..."
An Jun, "..."
"It's only two years apart." Zheng Ruqian quickly said, "My eldest brother is rich and handsome. It would be a pity not to have a child. I think the girls in the Dou family are quite good. With such a big family to support me, my eldest brother's official career will definitely be prosperous in the future." .”
Then get a look to kill.
But as the old saying goes, a dead Taoist friend will never die a poor Taoist.
Xu Mo is far ahead at twenty years old. He used to be able to raise his brothers and sisters, but now he has to set an example when getting married.
As for the meager brotherhood, Zheng Ruqian has strangled it in his chest.
"What the second brother said makes sense." Xu Mo suddenly smiled and said, "You and I are only one year apart. Since I have arranged it, you can't make any mistakes. I still remember the girl Xiangxiang who came to my door a while ago. I wonder if she has become a An opportunity for a family.”
Zheng Ruqian, "..."
When it comes to killing one's heart, the current governor of Anshui County should be mentioned.
You said that you, a businessman, would offend people who were killed in the officialdom.
He was heartbroken and heartbroken, but he couldn't describe it. He could only focus on his shivering fourth brother.
"Second brother, I don't want to marry, I'm still young." Wen Zhiyun waved his hands quickly, "I'm only seventeen years old."
talent!
How dare you say that! At the age of seventeen, he became a father!
But as soon as these words came out, wouldn't it mean that the twenty-year-old Xu Mo and the nineteen-year-old himself were all sold out.
Zheng Ruqian rolled his eyes, and finally looked at the north with regret, "Actually, both the eldest brother and the fourth brother and I are in the same city, and it's just a matter of words to say we are married. Only the third brother is the most pitiful, being alone. In the frontier, no one cares and no one loves you.”
"We would feel more at ease if there was someone around us who knew both the cold and the hot." Xu Mo rarely agreed.
The two brothers looked at each other with an unspeakable tacit understanding.
"I...I think it too." Wen Zhiyun mustered up his courage, "The third brother is the most miserable. When it comes to things like my wife, I should stay close to the third brother first."
As Jiang Sheng nodded in agreement, the three young men all breathed a sigh of relief.
The deep love between brothers has now turned into fratricide.
Fortunately, Fang Laosan finally took on everything.
Although he had a bitter expression when he heard the news, his hand holding the envelope trembled slightly, and he didn't know what to do.
"General, what's wrong?" Jiang Ba had a naughty temper and glanced out of the corner of his eye, "The girl is bringing us food again? Or are you buying new cotton-padded clothes? Or...hey, getting a wife?"
Fang Heng quickly folded the envelope and glared at it angrily.
"Oh my God, the general is getting a wife." Jiang Ba was immersed in panic, "General, are you getting a wife?"
The soldiers' voices were high-pitched, and they couldn't hide their shock.
Jiang Yi and Jiang Er, the gatekeepers, heard this and couldn't help but exclaimed, "The general wants to take a wife?"
"Really? The general wants a wife?"
"The general is getting a wife."
"The general not only has a wife, but also brings his wife to the border?"
Rumors were like the wind, and they swept through the camp in an instant.
Needless to say, six pieces of ginger are known to all the personal guards and even the uncles and aunts who wash and cook vegetables.
The most exaggerated thing was Jiang Chengyuan, who was guarding the headquarters. He rode a horse over to congratulate you, "Fang San, you are getting married. Congratulations. You are a lady from a certain family."
Fang Heng's face was livid, and he gritted his teeth for a long time, "Madam is not married, but she is worried about my sister."
younger sister.
Their common sister.
Jiang Chengyuan's expression drooped, "Why doesn't my sister worry about me getting a wife?"
"Then who knows." Fang Heng said angrily, "Maybe it's because we don't have a kiss."
Jiang Chengyuan, "..."
That night, the entire Fang family army saw General Jiang leaving angrily.
Fang Heng gathered his emotions and deliberately clarified in the evening. The key point was to make it clear that he had no intention of marrying a wife, let alone a general's wife.
"But general, you have to get a wife." The old lady who was wearing clothes was concerned, "You are twenty years old, and you can't do it without someone around you who knows how to feel hot and cold."
"I still have two brothers." Fang Heng bit his gums, "When will they get married, it will be my turn."
There is no absolute order in marriage between brothers, but brothers put their elders first and cannot fault each other.
The rumors gradually died down, leaving only some people who felt sorry for him.
"If the general could have a wife, he would indeed be more comfortable than he is now." Jiang Yi commented, "Around twenty is the best age to get married."
"But how can the general have such thoughts? He is accompanied by swords, guns, swords and halberds every day." Jiang Er shook his head.
"Actually, it's not difficult to marry. There are so many girls in the border areas who are thinking about our general." Jiang Liu grinned.
Jiang Qi and Jiang Ba still wanted to say something, but two coughs came from the tent.
"It seems that you also want to get married. Let your uncle and aunt pay more attention to you in the future." A cold voice came out, accompanied by strong displeasure.
The six pieces of ginger were almost shrunk into quails, and they dared not speak anymore.
Only Jiang Wu held the handle of the knife in his palm and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
And the people in the tent were wandering around with their pens at the moment, dividing all their grievances and pouring them onto the paper, and then sending them back to the south.
"What? The third brother doesn't want to marry a wife, and he also said that he would wait until the eldest brother and the second brother get married before worrying about him?"
Jiang Sheng smacked her lips as she held the letter sent from the border area, "None of you are willing. The eldest brother avoids the second brother, the third brother and the fourth brother shrink back. Is it possible that the youngest fifth brother should be married first?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the continuous ringing of bells came from the distant temple.
The monks in Anshui County are very relaxed and ring the bell up to nine times a day. I have never seen such a long and urgent event.
Unless... the emperor dies.
As if to confirm Jiang Sheng's guess, the door to the small courtyard was pushed open, and Xu Mo, who was wearing official uniform, said with a hurried expression, "Something happened in Fengjing."
Zheng Ruqian and Wen Zhiyun followed closely, with serious faces.
"The Tian family has passed away, and the new emperor is about to ascend the throne. We have to rush back to Fengjing as quickly as possible." Xu Mo held the document tightly, "But Xiao Wu wrote a letter saying that there is a suspected epidemic in the prosperous land in the south of the Yangtze River, so let us pay more attention. "
When the old and new emperors alternated, the power of the country was in constant turmoil.
Jiangnan people are always arty, so how could they be infected by the epidemic?
"Could it be man-made?" Jiang Sheng's eyes widened, "Then should we go to Jiangnan to deal with the epidemic, or should we go back to Fengjing to accompany fifth brother?"
"Of course I'm going back to Fengjing." Zheng Ruqian gave his sister a headache. "The palace will send an imperial doctor there. There are thousands of doctors in the world, but we are the only ones in Xiaowu."
Having said that, I can only pack things quickly and slowly.
The whole family is busy and enthusiastic.
There is only one exception.
He stroked the small medicine box he carried with him, as if he had struggled countless times before making a decision, "This time... I won't go back with you."
