"Oh...... Did the old man smoke cigarettes too? The young man asked with a smile.

This young man was Yang Feng, who had come to take shelter from the rain, and it was not strange to hear this old man say that he had smoked him.

Although this kind of cigarette is currently only supplied within the Jiangning Army due to its production, it is not uncommon for some soldiers and officers to not smoke cigarettes themselves after receiving them, and to give them to their family or friends to smoke.

"That is, don't underestimate my old man in the future life, the son of the old man is the commander of the Jiangning Army. Thanks to the son who didn't make it, I could occasionally get a box or two.

It's just that he followed Jiang Ninghou to Fujian two years ago, and I haven't drawn it for a long time, old man? ”

Yang Feng dispersed the cigarette to Ma Laohan, and took out the lighter to help him light it.

Ma Laohan took a deep puff of his cigarette and smiled with satisfaction.

"Oh......" Yang Feng lit his cigarette as well, took a puff and said with a smile: "Then I want to congratulate you old man, I heard that the soldiers who followed Jiang Ninghou on the expedition have gained a lot of money." ”

"Is that not it?"

As soon as he heard this, Ma Laohan came to his senses.

"Don't look at the old man's unsuccessful son is just a small captain, but it is also shot with a knife.

In the past two years, he followed the Marquis of Jiangning to the north of the Manchu Qing Dynasty and the Nanyang Haikou in the south, which made a lot of contributions, and the reward given by the Marquis of Jiangning alone was no less than one hundred taels.

My old man is preparing to use the silver to build a new house in a few days, and when he returns home after his service expires next year, the old man will give him a daughter-in-law, and this day will be comfortable. ”

"Huh...... Congratulations to your old man. ”

Looking at Ma Laohan with a proud face on the floor, Yang Feng was also happy for him in his heart, but looking at Ma Laohan shouting one by one Jiang Ninghou, he couldn't help but say:

"Old man, don't you know yet, the Marquis of Jiang Ning has been promoted again, and His Majesty the Emperor has promoted him to the Duke of Xinguo a few days ago."

"What...... Jiang Ninghou was promoted again and became a national prince? Ma Laohan was taken aback, and then asked, "Hou Sheng, what you said is true?" ”

"Of course, this matter has already spread all over the Ming Dynasty, you can just ask around, how can it be fake."

"Huh...... Great......"

Ma Laohan laughed happily.

"Jiang Ninghou ...... No, now he should be called the grandfather of the old man.

According to the old man, his old man is a good man, not to mention being a prince, even if he is a prince, it is no problem. ”

"Huh...... Don't say that, you old man, the prince is not something ordinary people can do. ”

Yang Feng waved his hand again and again, according to the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty, except for the people of the Zhu family, it is basically impossible to be a prince with a different surname. And listening to an old man who is old enough to be his elder call himself an old man, Yang Feng always feels strange in his heart.

Just as Yang Feng wanted to say something, the girl's voice sounded behind him.

"What's the use of talking so much, Grandpa Guo may have forgotten about Jiang Ningwei, otherwise he wouldn't have come back for more than two years, and let that guy Li Zheng harm us."

As soon as the two turned around, it turned out to be a girl who came over with a teapot and two large bowls.

I saw her put the big bowl on the table, poured hot water and snorted: "If Grandpa Guo comes back and sees Jiang Ningwei, which he single-handedly created, become like this, will his old man be angry." ”

"Girl, what are you talking nonsense?"

Ma Laohan's face changed immediately, and he widened his eyes and shouted: "Is this kind of thing something that you can talk about as a little girl, why don't you hurry back to the house and rest!" ”

"I won't!"

The girl stubbornly held her head high, looking unconvinced.

"Let's not talk about anything else, let's just say that we have thousands of households, it looks like the New Year is coming, but even the food for the New Year has not been distributed yet, so we will have to dig wild vegetables outside and gnaw the bark, is it difficult to say it?"

Ma Laohan scolded: "You fart, that's the grandfather of the country is going to fight the rogue, what's wrong with collecting some food?" ”

"I have no opinion on Grandpa Guo going to fight the rogue, but why did he get all our rations, so what are we going to eat?" The girl's eyes were red when she said this.

"We finally lived a few good days, working hard every day to serve the crops, but at the end of the year, we ended up with a stop, why?"

Speaking of this, the girl's tears could no longer hold back her face and fell to the ground with a puff.

The father and daughter were only arguing, but they didn't notice that the originally gentle young man on the side slowly turned gloomy.

"What the hell is going on, where has Jiang Ningwei's food gone, and how has it fallen to the point of being cut off?"

Yang Feng's face was ugly, and a cloud of anger rose in his heart, this is too ridiculous, Jiang Ningwei is his lair.

Not to mention anything else, Yang Feng's support for the place where he started is very strong, whether it is high-yield seeds, he has never been stingy with the construction of water conservancy, and even he got a batch of fertilizers from modern times, all of which were given to Jiang Ningwei.

A few days ago, he also read the report sent to him by Jiang Ningwei, saying that this year's farm's highest yield per mu of rice has reached 800 catties, and the average yield per mu has reached more than 600 catties.

Yang Feng, who had an ugly face, said to Ma Laohan's father and daughter: "You tell me, what is going on?" Isn't Jiang Ningwei a bumper harvest this year? How did it become like this, and there was no food for the New Year? ”

Because Yang Feng, who was angry, did not hide himself, the momentum of being in a high position for a while also exuded.

Although Ma Laohan was just an ordinary old farmer, he also noticed that the young man in front of him seemed to be different from just now, especially his eyes, which were like two scorching fires, which could penetrate people's hearts.

"Afterlife...... You...... What are you ......?" he hesitated for a moment.

Seeing her father's stammering appearance, the girl on the side was anxious, and hurriedly said: "What else, it's the sin of the commander Li Zhengzao."

This year's bumper harvest here is indeed true, and the original grain is so much that the granary is almost unfilled. But Li Zheng found an excuse to transfer all the food away, leaving only a batch of food that was just enough for us to eat.

But unfortunately, two days ago, the imperial court issued an order to drop the army to fight, so that the food was immediately insufficient, and Li Zheng looted all our rations to serve as military rations.

Those officials don't want to think about it, they have taken all the food away, what are we going to eat for the New Year? ”

At this, the girl began to cry......

"Bang ......"

I only heard a muffled sound, and then there was a loud noise, it turned out to be Yang Feng, who was in great anger, slapped the table, and the table that couldn't bear it immediately fell apart with a bang.
