Mo Jinyuan's smile that was not a smile made her regret asking this question a little. She had the feeling that he had fallen into a trap.
"At the very least, the new recruits still need to train before they can enter the battlefield. As for which army they actually joined, I'll have to wait a little longer." If you ask me now, I don't know. "
Duan Xiaohe pretended to be anxious, she waved goodbye and said that she would like to see the Old Man Liu. Just as she walked two steps, Mo Jinyuan caught up to him again, "Didn't you see my clothes? It was exactly because of your Fancy Dress that I had to pay eighty silver taels for it, but its appearance is still alright. "
Even though she knew that it was done by Fancy Dress, she still pretended to be shocked.
"This is made from Fancy Dress? Since when did Fancy Dress have such a small, fluffy collar? "
Mo Jinyuan stretched out his hand and stroked it, smiling in satisfaction. I took this over myself and asked your embroidery lady to help me sew it up. How about it?
She smiled embarrassedly, "I haven't been to a county city in months. I don't even know what's going on with my Fancy Dress. I thought I must have bought it from the capital for it to look so good. Oh yeah, I heard you and Little County Princess are getting married? "
"Who told you that?"
Duan Xiaohe's pupils constricted as he cursed himself as an idiot. Qin Rui had his own way of doing things, I am afraid that he would even be able to receive the first piece of news regarding matters in the capital. However, this wasn't the emperor's wedding, so there was no need to make it known to everyone. She had just said that she had always lived in the countryside and hadn't even been to a county before. How could she have known about this in such a rural place?
She was quick to react and quickly said that she wanted to bring the business to the capital, so she asked Liu Wang for more information. A few days ago, when he went back to the village, he found out about it.
Mo Jinyuan nodded, "Jing Xi and I are indeed getting married."
Duan Xiaohe blessed the two of them, and even said that she would definitely send them a gift. After saying a few polite words, she said that she was worried about the Old Man Liu and needed to go take a look before hurriedly running away.
After running for a distance, he remembered his cow and ran back to take a look. The cow was gone!
Duan Xiaohe could only console herself from a different angle. She had agreed to not be around Mo Jinyuan, if not she would not know what to say if she bumped into him again. After cursing in her heart, she rushed back to the infirmary.
Arriving at the clinic, Old Man Liu had already seen that the doctor had prescribed some medicine, saying that he had hurt some bone in his butt and had sat on the snowy ground for a long time.
After exiting the infirmary, Liu Er asked her why he did not see the oxcart. Liu Er was stunned for a moment, then suddenly said: "After the new year, I will come to town to find work again. I will compensate you with this cow's money."
Duan Xiaohe was surprised, was this Liu Er's brain opened up?
Liu Er calmly accepted her scrutiny and supported his father out of the infirmary. He weighed the silver in his hand and told Old Man Liu that he was going to find a carriage and have them wait here.
After they had left, Old Man Liu spoke to her sincerely and said, "Your second brother used to be a little outrageous, but fortunately, he became responsible after the child was born. After I die of old age, your second brother will still have to rely on himself to live his life, and he still has to come out to find a job. "You also have some connections. Go and ask around. If there are any suitable ones, introduce them to him."
Duan Xiaohe was startled, she did not expect the Old Man Liu to have such a bright heart, and knew that the reason Liu Er was unable to continue staying in the county was because of Qin Rui.
"I know, I'll pay attention to him."
Thinking about it, she told Old Man Liu that she wanted to hire a few people to farm. Old Man Liu waved her hand and said: "Call your second brother over. He is too lazy at home, it's fine if I help you out. "During this period of time, it's you who's been supporting his family. If he doesn't want to, I'll beat him to death."
Planting the land was something that would only happen after the new year. He was not in a hurry right now, so he could talk about it in the future.
Reaching the Liu Village, Duan Xiaohe followed Liu Er and helped Old Man Liu into the house. When the Widow Li heard the commotion, he came out with the child in his arms, and seeing that it was difficult for the Old Man Liu to walk, he asked him about the situation.
When the Old Man Liu entered his room, Duan Xiaohe looked at the child and suddenly thought of a question.
"The child hasn't been named yet, has he?"
"I didn't get it just because it was a ninny." The child is still young, so there's no hurry. "
Liu Er was also an uncultured person, he did not even think about giving his a name. Moreover, this child was indeed still young. He didn't even know his name because he was calling out to him. With just a day of dragging, he didn't want to take it anymore.
Duan Xiaohe said that this wouldn't do, the child had to call her by her name until later before she became smart. The Widow Li immediately pulled at Liu Er, telling him to go ask the Old Man Liu's opinion.
Liu Er nodded, saying that he should go to Old Man Liu's house and ask what his name was. Duan Xiaohe thought of how the three brothers were so casual with their names, cleared his throat and said, "I'll give it to you."
"You know how to name things?" Liu Er suspiciously looked at her and was pulled by Widow Li once again. Only then did he pretend to be interested.
Duan Xiaohe felt like she had been f * cked. If it wasn't for Liu San's nephew daughter, he would have just directly called his Tigress.
"We country folk only want a good harvest. The snow hasn't stopped in the past few days, let's just call it Rachel."
Liu Er and Widow Li's eyes lit up. Liu Ruixue was simple but beautiful. The two of them knew that if they had to change the Old Man Liu's name, they wouldn't be able to get such a good name.
After leaving two or three taels of silver for the two of them, Duan Xiaohe went back home.
In the blink of an eye, it was already the twenty-ninth day of the new year. Just as Duan Xiaohe woke up, she heard someone calling her name from outside.
"What are you guys doing here? Hurry up and come in."
The four of them looked at the house in front of them and were dumbfounded. They all felt that this house was even more beautiful than the palace. Duan Xiaohe pulled the four in and looked at the strange furniture with her mouth agape.
Duan Xiaohe could not help but smile, "Is it that strange?"
The little girl sighed, "Sis, this house of yours is really good. You must have spent a lot of money, right?"
"Not much."
The family chatted for a while, the snow had stopped falling outside, so Duan Xiaohe brought her two children to build a snowman outside.
The two children were extremely excited as they surrounded the snowman. They didn't even want to enter the house anymore.
Father Duan stood at the entrance of the hall and waved at her. Just as she entered, he asked her, "Where's Liu San? Why don't we meet him?"
The smile on Duan Xiaohe's face froze, "Liu San has gone to join the army."
"What?" "Father Duan asked again, in disbelief. He even thought that he had heard wrongly on Lady Wang." Why did he join the army? Did you spend all your money on building a house? "
"Duan Xiaohe smirked, and laughed her unsightly laugh. No, she was worried that the taxes would be too heavy, so he decided to join the army. "It's fine. I heard that they could come back during the Spring and Autumn Harvests. Right now, it's peaceful and there's no war, so there's no rush."
"How could he not be worried? I heard that those barbarians have caused a huge ruckus at the border …"
Old Man Duan tugged at her and coarsely told her to go out and look after the child so that her clothes and pants weren't wet. It wouldn't be good if she became ill.
Lady Wang let out a helpless sigh, and obediently went out. Just as the Lady Wang left his body, Old Man Duan started asking questions.
"What was the situation that day in the county city, why did we just come to the Liu San and call you away? Did his father throw his face at you? "If his dad dares to throw your face away, I'll take off my shoes and take it back!"
Duan Xiaohe chuckled, then shook her head and said no.
"On that day, it was indeed something that happened at home, and his father was not in a good mood because of the incident with Liu Er and the Widow Li, so he came back just like that."
Old Man Duan didn't believe it. He coldly snorted, then suddenly started talking about the painting.
"After you left that day, I put that painting away. I didn't expect that painting to disappear the next day, my heart was hanging by a thread, I had originally wanted to tell you about this when we were going to the county city, but I didn't expect that before I even told you, Liu San had already called you away."
This was probably Qin Rui sneaking around to show it to the Liu San.
Duan Xiaohe did not care about all these anymore, she just said that if it was lost, it would be lost. Old Man Duan opened his mouth, but didn't say anything.
After a while, she asked them how they had gotten here. She should be the one to go over since it was New Year's, so she didn't feel like letting them come over.
Father Duan knocked the table loudly. He said that she had been back from the county town for a month or two, but she didn't have the slightest idea. Since it was already over a year, they couldn't wait for her to pass. The few of them could only come over and see if she was still alive.
Her heart warmed, and she almost cried like this.
Leaving the four of them to eat at home, he also brought some things back for them so that they could come early on the day of Liu San's wedding. After sending them to the village entrance, they looked at the back of the family of four as they left, and their tears fell.
During New Year's, other people would cause a commotion, but on her side, it was cold and cheerless. They said that they could return during the harvest, but it had been so long since the Liu San even had a letter from the Feng Family. Every time she went to the fair, she would ask around to find out where the war was coming from. Hearing that the world was at peace, his heart dropped.
But today, Lady Wang had mentioned that the Barbarian Child in the border area had moved, causing her entire being to be in a bad mood.
Unconsciously touching her unmoving lower abdomen, Duan Xiaohe suddenly had a feeling that it was over for the rest of her life.
"That little lady in front, do you still have some leftovers? Give me some food to eat."
Qin Rui was standing behind her. His clothes were tattered and dirty, making him look just like a beggar.
Duan Xiaohe frowned, "How can you be like this?"
Qin Rui sniffed, "Run for your life and come back."
