When? In times of war! 218 Ambush

But this doesn't mean that she will give the couple a good face, since the two of them came to the door, they just snorted faintly, and didn't say a word otherwise.

Both of them complained bitterly in their hearts, don't come, don't dare. Come on, it's a cold face again, and I don't know what the second brother thinks.

It's just that these words are passed in their hearts, and they will never dare to say it.

There was the sound of broken footsteps outside, and Red Sleeves was holding a mahogany tray in his hand, on which were placed a few white porcelain and blue and white tea cups, and the heat was curling out.

She pushed the door in, gently closed the door, walked over and put the tray on the coffee table in the old lady's hand, served the old lady a cup of tea, and put two cups of tea in Dong Xu's hand, and said with a smile: "Uncle, sister-in-law, please use tea!" ”

"Eh, yes, yes!"

Dong Xu hurriedly responded with his mouth, and instinctively wanted to stand up, but his butt left the chair but he felt that something was wrong, so he sat back again, as if he owed his body.

He didn't dare to look up at this younger brother and sister at all, and when he first came, he took a look, and he only felt that it was as beautiful as anything, and he panicked in his heart when he saw it. He is now extremely afraid of Dong Ce, so much so that he is even a little afraid of this younger sibling.

The Qian family behind him thought that he couldn't get on the stage, so he twisted his hand on Dong Xu's shoulder, his face was full of smiles, and said: "My brother and sister are such a smart and peugeot, I have only seen it in the play*one*book*read*little*say ybdu, I have seen it in the book, where did I really take a picture?" But doing these stupid jobs of serving tea and pouring water, I, as a sister-in-law, feel distressed when I see it! ”

She has sharp teeth, and she can say the most, listening to her praise the red sleeves, even the corners of the old lady's mouth show a hint of a smile.

She couldn't be more satisfied with this second daughter-in-law.

Red Sleeves just smiled lightly, with a hint of reserve but not rudeness: "Sister-in-law praised me falsely, I am also from a poor family, where is there anything that can't be done superficially?" There are few people in the family, and the two girls have to do some things to chop wood and cook, but some things are done by themselves to feel at ease. ”

Qian couldn't help but be surprised in his heart, this younger sister Wei was dressed elegantly, but she had a noble connotation, and she was also extremely decent and appropriate in her words and deeds, no more, no less. This is not like a woman from the countryside who can do what she can do, and I'm afraid that everyone is just like that.

I heard that this is the widow of Sun Ruhu, who was occupied by his brother-in-law, and I don't know what the number is.

But the old lady is such a shrewd and spicy character to coax her so happy, I think it is very skillful.

After this start, the atmosphere is much more lively and relaxed.

When Qian and Wei Hongsleeve said this, they led Dong Ce and Hongsleeve from time to time, and the old lady was also interested in talking, and when she saw that she was interested, she also said a few words.

Dong Xu almost couldn't speak, and he didn't dare to speak, so he had to sip tea there.

After he took a sip, his eyes lit up, and his heart said that his younger brother was really rich, this tea was mellow and rich, but it was the best tea he had ever drunk in his life.

Naturally, he didn't know that Red Sleeves drank it every day, but it was just coarse tea, but his husband's brother and sister-in-law were coming, so he naturally had to take care of it carefully, and he had to take out the best things for hospitality, but he couldn't lose his husband's face.

Soon Dong Xu drank his cup, and then went to bring the cup of his daughter-in-law next to him.

When Qian lived for a while, his mouth was dry and he wanted to drink tea, but he found that the teacup was empty.

The angry Qian gritted his teeth for a while, but he was embarrassed to show it, so he pinched Dong Xu a few times.

After talking for a while, Erya came over and said that the meal was ready.

Dong Xu and his wife resigned again and again, and the red sleeves naturally tried their best to stay, and finally the old lady spoke, leaving the two of them here for a meal.

Dong Xu hadn't noticed anything yet, but Qian quietly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that at least on face, the old lady had let go of the past.

After eating, the two did not linger any longer, and then took their leave.

It wasn't until he came out of Shilipu that Dong Xu asked the words that he had been holding back in his heart for a long time: "Lady, what's in your baggage?" We didn't see you carrying it when we came. ”

Qian didn't answer, but took two steps forward, hid behind a big tree, and looked around to see if there was anyone before untying the burden and giving Dong Xu a look.

Dong Xu saw it and couldn't help but jump his eyelids.

There are several ready-to-wear clothes inside, and the texture is very good, basically made of satin. And in the middle of these clothes, there is a large ingot of silver, I am afraid that it is about fifteen taels!

Fifteen taels, in this era, is already all the assets of three poor peasant households. In addition to that, there are a few big bucks next to it.

"This ......"

Dong Xu said: "What's going on? ”

He suddenly looked happy: "It must have been given by the second brother, is he no longer concerned about the original matter?" ”

"You idiot!" Qian nodded his forehead angrily: "This is given to me by my brother and sister." ”

"Brother and sister gave it?" Dong Xu was even more confused.

"Your second brother, his heart is black, and his hands are ruthless! Forgot to kick you in the first place? It's a rush to get you to death! Even if he didn't care about what happened at the beginning, he wouldn't give us silver. I'm afraid that my younger brother and sister saved it for us by themselves. ”

She sighed: "I now know why my mother loves her, my brother and sister, it's really painful!" ”

……

A wide river tore through the earth, embroidering a white ribbon in this seemingly eternal desolate land.

The flow direction of the river is from northwest to southeast, the river is very wide, I am afraid that it is more than 100 meters or so, in the land of northern Shanxi, it is definitely a big river. The river bank is also very steep, from the bank to the river surface is straight up and down, there is a drop of three or four meters, especially on the north bank, this drop is even greater.

From this, it can be roughly deduced that this section of the river still belongs to the middle and upper reaches of the river, not far from the source, and this river must be very turbulent in spring and summer when the river is the most turbulent and intense, otherwise, it is impossible to leave such a clear and profound cut on the earth.

In fact, more than 20 miles upstream of this river is the river that flows through Shilipu, and its downstream is also known as the great river in northern Shanxi and Hebei, the Sanggan River.

At this time, the river has long been frozen, and the sound of the waves is no more, only a piece of ice white.

It was about four o'clock in the afternoon, the sun had disappeared, and the whole sky was gloomy and dark, and there was not a single wind between heaven and earth, and there was silence. What's even more unusual is that the temperature seems to be a little higher than yesterday, and the chill is not so cold.

Experienced old people know that this is a sign of a new cold coming, usually before the snow.

However, the people of northern Jinbei are looking forward to snow.

Ruixue mega year, this year's snow, next year's spring after the drought, more or less alleviated, can be more grain, that is God's grace.

These days, I really can't live.

On the north bank of the river, about a hundred paces away, the terrain rises steeply, and then rises all the way up, eventually forming a complex terrain of hills and mountains, covered with dense forests. This mountainous dense forest will extend all the way to the vicinity of Anxiangdun, and then all the way north to the outside of the Saiwai.

At this time, it was winter, the four fields were empty, and at a glance, there was not a single figure in sight.

It's just that if someone enters that dense forest at this time, they will definitely be dumbfounded.

Although most of the branches and foliage are already bare, the dense forest, especially with many large pines, makes it okay for the forest to hide some of the people hidden in it.

After entering the dense forest for more than a dozen steps, the scene outside was blocked by layers and could no longer be seen.

At this time, dozens of people are hiding themselves.

They were all dressed the same, wearing cyan cotton armor on the outside, bulging on their bodies, and they all looked a little bloated, and they thought they were wearing clothes like mandarin duck jackets inside. They held bows and arrows in their hands, and huge arrow plugs hung from their waists, revealing dense feathers inside.

And next to each of them, there was a war horse, with a saddle belt on it, all available, and on one side of the war horse, there was a hook sticking out, on which hung a cavalry spear, and on the other side hung a cavalry knife.

People are like dragons, very spiritual.

At this time, most of these soldiers trained a tree, leaned against the tree and closed their eyes to recuperate. The horses are all bridle and do not make any sound.

At the front of the line, three leader-like people surrounded a young man, and in addition to that, there were three other people standing next to him.

Three of the four of them were wearing iron armor, the iron armor was extremely thick, and the edges of the armor leaves were extremely thick, and it was obvious that the defense was amazing. The other was thin and thin, and it seemed that he couldn't hold up the iron armor, and only wore a leather armor. Among the three people next to him, there are also two people who are also in iron armor, and the other is wearing a wide cotton armor, which is also like armor on his body, looking empty, with straight hair fluttering.

Needless to say, this group of people is naturally Dong Ce and his subordinates.

They set out from Anxiangdun early in the morning, arrived here before noon, and had been hiding here for more than two hours.

Here, there is only one path in between, and if you don't take this road, you will either have to trek through the mountains and forests for several days, or you will have to jump into the river. And most importantly, this is the only way to return to Liuling Mountain from Lingyidu.

Dong Ce has been waiting here for a long time. The incident of Lingyidu's encounter with bandits is a conspiracy through and through. Dong Ce was worried about the materials of the Rock Fort a long time ago, so many people, they have to wear if they don't die for a day, and they have to eat for a day, where does the food and clothing come from? It's not Dong Ce's supply yet! Where did the construction of Rock Fort come from? It's not Dong Ce's supply yet!
