On the second day, whether it was the cavalry generals such as Chai and Yanmao, or generals such as Chu Ren and Wei Wan, they all knew that General Teng had asked Bai Yan to help organize important matters.
No one was surprised by this. After destroying South Korea, there were indeed many important things to deal with.
After Chu Ren and Kui Wan were chatting, they walked on the city wall and chatted with each other.
In their hearts, both of them envied Bai Yan.
Last time in Yangcheng, the old general made no secret of his intention to promote Bai Yan. After that, Bai Yan made many meritorious deeds. Now that Han has been destroyed, old general Teng must be a talent-loving man.
Whether it is Chu Ren or Kui Wan, they all know in their hearts that General Teng is the governor of Nanyang County and is deeply loved by the people in Nanyang. If Bai Yan can learn to deal with things from General Teng, he will definitely behave like General Teng in the future.
They couldn't help but think about how great it would be if they could have such an opportunity!
In Xinzheng City.
Except General Teng.
Chu Ren, Kui Wan, and all the cavalry generals didn't know.
Bai Yan in their mouth.
At sunrise, when the gate of Xinzheng city had just opened, he disguised himself, led a horse, and left Xinzheng with a few close followers. He was already on the way to Yangzhen.
Qi State Linzi.
Winter is coming and the weather is getting colder.
Every morning, every leaf and dead branch can be seen covered with frost.
It wasn't until the warm sun rose, bringing a touch of warmth to the earth, that the frost gradually melted away.
Outside Linzi City, in a village called Shui (水), in an ordinary small farmyard.
"The weather is getting colder than usual. I don't know if Yan'er can have enough to eat in Yicheng. It's almost winter. Have you bought any new clothes?"
Mr. Xiao, who was wearing common clothes, took the washed clothes to the yard to dry, and then said with longing, "I didn't know whether it was right or wrong to let Yan'er go to Yicheng."
Yan's father on the side heard his wife's words and showed a simple smile.
"Yan'er is smart and has the appreciation of Ling Shi. Don't worry too much. Besides, Yan'er is already old!"
Father Yan said that because the weather was very cold and under the warm sun, a trace of heat mist appeared when he spoke and disappeared in an instant.
As soon as Yan's father finished speaking, Mrs. Xiao looked at him angrily.
"It didn't fall from you, so of course you don't feel bad."
Shi said.
Yan's father looked at his wife with a simple and honest smile on his face, looking pleased with her.
Seeing this, Mr. Xiao couldn't express his anger.
"Remember to say nice things to Shou'er later, and be sure to bring thick new clothes."
Mrs. Xiao looked at Yan's father angrily and said softly.
I had told Shou'er about a marriage before, and he would be able to pick up the woman later.
The woman would definitely not be able to adapt to it at first.
As long as the woman feels at ease and Shou'er takes some time to come home, she will probably be able to have her grandson in a year or two.
Inside the Bamboo Garden.
Yan's father listened to his wife's instructions, smiled and nodded, and then there was some emotion on his smiling face.
From the time he married the Shi family, in the blink of an eye, among the two sons, the eldest son is now ready to start a family, and the second son is about to reach the age of starting a family.
"After finishing Shou'er's marriage, I will also take time to arrange a marriage for Yan'er in the future."
Father Yan looked at his wife Shi and said with a smile.
"In the past, Yan'er was always thinking about and clamoring to arrange a marriage for his eldest brother. I never thought that now that I have arranged a marriage for Shou'er, Yan'er is not at home."
Yan's father thought of the past when Yan'er would yell from time to time to save some money for his eldest brother and arrange marriage arrangements for him.
Mrs. Xiao looked at Yan's father, her eyes were a little sad after listening to Yan's father's words.
Saying goodbye to Yan'er was done lightly.
Even though the women in the village have to work hard and their complexions are not white and yellow, and they are not as good as the women from wealthy families in the city, those people also have requirements.
Just like the girl Zi Lu married from her eldest uncle's family, she was not as good as the girl from a wealthy family in the city. She was just more beautiful in the village, but people also valued Zi Lu's literacy.
Although Yan'er is good-looking, she is not good enough for others to ignore her.
In the eyes of outsiders, the eldest son Shou'er, the two boys in their family, is not only filial and honest, but has now joined the army and has a stable salary.
Therefore, most families are willing to send their little girls to live with them.
In comparison, Yan'er wants to marry a woman from a nearby village in the future, which is easy to say, but absolutely impossible.
Everyone in the nearby villages knew or heard of Yan'er, so naturally no family was willing to marry their daughter to Yan'er, and no girl from any family was willing to follow Yan'er.
"Is Father Yan here?"
Just as Mrs. Shi was lost in thought, the bamboo door of Xiaozhuyuan was slowly pushed open. The thin frost on the bamboo door fell. A man in cloth slowly walked in and looked at her and Yanfu.
Hear the words.
Mrs. Xiao looked at Yan's father with a puzzled look.
Father Yan also stood up slowly, his eyes full of doubts.
"I am!"
Yan's father said, looking at the commoner man in his twenties, and just calling him Yan'er, he must know Yan'er.
"My name is Zhan. I ordered Shi to reward Zhong Yan for his meritorious service in solving the case in Yicheng. When I returned to Linzi, Zhong Yan dragged me to you."
A man named Zhen came to Yan's father, took out a small money bag from his sleeve and handed it to Yan's father.
"ah!"
"Yan'er gets another reward?"
Father Yan looked at the small purse in his hand in astonishment, feeling that the weight was almost the same as the previous times put together.
Mrs. Xiao also took the money bag from Yan's father with a surprised look on her face. After opening it with both hands, she looked inside and then looked at Yan's father.
Yan'er left in April and May, and had already asked people to bring several rewards to the family.
"Yan'er is in Yicheng now, are you okay? Could you please take it back to Yan'er and tell him that Yan'er's family is not short of money and food."
Mr. Shi put the coupons in his wallet, then took out two small coins from his sleeve pocket and handed one to the man named Chen.
The last time Yan'er asked someone to bring money, it had only been more than twenty days.
Although Yan'er was appreciated by Ling Shi, Ling Shi often rewarded Yan'er.
But winter is coming now, and rather than Yan'er giving money to the family, she wants Yan'er to eat and drink well by himself and not be cold.
"When I saw Zhong Yan's instructions before, I had already taken out a lot."
He explained with a smile, his expression somewhat reluctant, as if he found it too troublesome.
Then he bowed his hands to Yanfu and turned around to leave.
Upon seeing this, Yanfu and Xiao stood there at a loss.
"Save it for Yan'er and use it later when you propose marriage to him."
Father Yan said to Shi.
Mrs. Xiao nodded, but then she thought of something and put the money bag in Yan's father's hand.
"No, my dear, go and buy back the farmland that you sold before. If Yan'er marries a wife in the future, then sell the farmland."
Shi said.
The woman who arranged Shou'er's marriage before was the most beautiful woman in that village.
For the sake of longevity, the couple had been ruthless. Yan'er didn't have enough money and sold a lot of farmland at home.
Now, instead of saving the money, it is better to buy back the farmland first, so that it can be cultivated next year, and then sell the farmland when Yan'er gets a wife in the future.
"Can!"
When Yan's father heard what Xiao said, he was honest and doubtful for a moment, but after thinking about it and realizing that this was better, he quickly nodded with a smile.
Qi State Linzi.
What Shi and Yan's father didn't know was that Chen, who had been talking to them before, had now arrived at a luxurious mansion.
The scale of the mansion is very large, with rockeries and water.
"Little Master, it has been delivered."
Zhan came to the pavilion and said to the girl who was looking at the bamboo slips in the pavilion.
Looking at the young master in white fox fur in front of him, Qian was very curious as to why the young master took such good care of that family. He had previously arranged for other people to send money at random dates. Later, when he heard that the couple sold their farmland, they asked him to Go give money.
But Zhan didn't dare to ask.
He didn't even dare to tell others about it.
"Get down!"
The girl said softly.
Compared with the women in the village, the girl's complexion is fairer, and compared with the women in the city, her appearance is rare in the world.
If Bai Yan were here, he would be surprised. It is said that women grow quickly, but in less than half a year, the little girl had grown a lot taller.
"promise!"
Peck nodded and turned around to leave the pavilion.
And a servant of the mansion, leading a fat young man, passed by the man at this time and came to the pavilion.
The fat boy is Lu Qi.
Compared with Bai Yan's journey from Linzi to Qin State Pingyang, which took more than two months, Lu Qi's journey from Yangcheng, South Korea to Linzi was much faster.
One is because the rivers all flow towards Qi State and enter the sea from Qi State.
The second is that the Lu family has been doing business all year round. Compared with Bai Yan traveling alone, the Lu family store has always prepared customs clearance tokens, so there is no need to take a detour except by boat.
Third, Lu is richer than Bai Yan! !
Inside the pavilion.
After Lu Qi followed the servant into the pavilion, he saw Tian Feiyan with a smile full of intimacy.
"My lord, Lu family and Lu Qi are here!"
The servant raised his hands to Tian Feiyan and said.
"Feiyan, do you still remember your cousin?"
Lu Qi also spoke at this time. As a businessman, Lu Qi was naturally familiar with things.
Besides, Tian Feiyan's mother is the eldest sister of Lu Qi's father. They are related by blood, so Lu Qi is naturally no stranger to her.
"Cousin!"
When Tian Feiyan saw Lu Qi, she was a little surprised and stood up slowly. She still remembered that he had indeed seen this very cute (fat) cousin before.
Lu Qi and Tian Feiyan bowed to each other.
The servant has left.
Tian Feiyan wondered why this fat cousin came to visit the mansion today.
