"Let's go, let go of this dog man and woman first" The old man shouted at the villagers, glanced at Qiao Zhiqing, and left with the angry villagers."
Let them out."
Qiao Zhiqing greeted his own soldiers and found a clean place to sit down on the riverside.When the soldiers received the order, they quickly cut through the bamboo cage with daggers and released the pair of bitter mandarin ducks from inside.The man and woman had just recovered from their fright, and hurriedly hugged him, and walked over and knelt down with Qiao Zhiqing."
Thank you Childe for the rescue, thank you Childe for the rescue."
The two of them knelt down together, their faces full of gratitude."
Get up, don't thank you."
Qiao Zhiqing smiled and stretched out his hand to support the two."
Big brother, big sister.Who are they, why do you put the two of you in a cage" Wei Ziyou looked at the two of them with curiosity on the side, she grew up in the home of poetry, books and music, where did she know what was going on in the pig cage.The man and woman blushed when they heard this, and the woman, in particular, hung her head shyly, not knowing how to answer."
Engong, I don't hide it.The two of us and the people just now belong to the same villagers of Wangzhuang.The old man was the patriarch of Wang Zhuang.My name is Wang Sheng, and I have to call him a third uncle in terms of seniority.This is my cousin's daughter-in-law, Cui Yingying, we committed the crime of fornication, so the patriarch wants to immerse the two of us in the pig cage. ”Wang Sheng replied timidly, his face full of shame.Although Cui Yingying was disheveled, she was disheveled.But it still can't hide her seductive figure and the mature charm of the young woman.No wonder this Wang Sheng is willing to take risks for her, it can be regarded as the death of peony flowers, and he is also a ghost."
Oh, it turns out that you are cheating on your brother and sister, you should be punished, you should be punished."
As soon as Wei Ziyou heard this, his face fell, and his good impression of the two of them was greatly reduced for a while."
No, no, no, Eun Gong misunderstood.My cousin has been dead in the war for many years, and my younger siblings are the ones who support the family.I went to help her from time to time, and gradually I had feelings for each other and did things that I shouldn't do.But we truly love each other, and I have the ability to take care of my younger siblings. ”Wang Sheng hurriedly explained to Wei Ziyou, for fear that she would misunderstand that she was a thief."
Brother Wang is right, the slave family is miserable, and her husband died early.According to the rules of the ancestors, it was necessary to keep the festival for the husband.But the slave family did have a love for Brother Wang, so they had the idea of staying with him for the rest of their lives. ”Cui Yingying also explained, her face full of shyness and embarrassment."
Oh, I see.Since it is the cousin who has passed away, that Lang is affectionate, and the sister is intentional, there is nothing wrong with it" Wei Ziyou suddenly understood, smiled evilly at the two, and stretched out snacks to touch them from time to time.Qiao Zhiqing listened to them quietly for a long time, and finally looked at the two of them chuckling, and said, "Okay, help people to the end, and send the Buddha to the west."
It's fate that we can meet, so I'll help you two more and administer justice for you. ”Wang Sheng and Cui Yingying looked at each other, both full of gratitude."
Engong, you came to the rescue this time, and the two of us are already grateful.This matter started because of the two of us, how can I be embarrassed to trouble you again.The patriarch has the final say on everything in this village.You are a foreigner, how can he listen to you" Wang Sheng sighed with some hesitation, embarrassed to let Qiao Zhiqing stir up this troubled water again."
It's all right, you can take us home.Tomorrow, I will ask the county magistrate to personally officiate the marriage of the two of you.No matter how powerful the patriarch is, he doesn't dare to disobey the meaning of the county magistrate" Qiao Zhiqing said casually with a nonchalant face, and the tone was as if the county magistrate was his son."
Then I'll bother Engong again, Engong here, please."
Wang Sheng hurriedly greeted Qiao Zhiqing and led the way on the side.Although he muttered a little in his heart, looking at Qiao Zhiqing's appearance of Yu Xuanang, he must be a rich and noble person.I don't think I'll be happy with myself, maybe it's really a messenger sent by God to fulfill my marriage with Cui Yingying.Cui Yingying didn't have the slightest suspicion, as if she was looking forward to a savior, and her face was full of excitement and joy.Qiao Zhiqing whispered to Huang Feihong, and Huang Feihong took the two of them on the ferry and headed in the direction of Jiangning County.The rest of the group walked two or three miles from the riverside to the country road, and then they saw the archway at the head of Wangzhuang Village.The embroidered shoes worn by Wei Ziyou have too thin soles.After walking a few steps, her little feet hurt, and Qiao Zhiqing had no choice but to carry her on his back.Even Cui Yingying was full of envy, and she didn't know why this young man was so bold and dared to hug in front of so many people."
Engong, this is Wang Zhuang.In Jiangning County, it is one of the best villages.There are 500 households, a population of thousands.This archway was erected by Wang Jie, the champion of the Qianlong period, and the ancestral hall in this village also enshrines his rank.The patriarch was his next cousin, and he was very dignified in the village. ”Wang Sheng walked to the head of the village and introduced Qiao Zhiqing excitedly, his face full of joy."
If one person attains the Tao, the chicken and dog ascend to heaven."
Qiao Zhiqi looked at the two big characters on the row of floors and couldn't help but chuckle."
Isn't it, it turns out that the 1,000 acres of fertile land in this village belong to the patriarch's family.Even when the long hair comes, nothing changes.Later, Huaxing Army came, which is really good for our people.As soon as he arrived here, he divided all the fields equally among the villagers, and almost didn't make the patriarch half angry. ”Wang Sheng smirked at him, remembering the appearance of the patriarch when he divided the land, he secretly sulked in his heart.Even so, the patriarch still enjoyed great prestige in the village.The big and small things in the village are still decided by him.After everyone entered the village, fortunately, Wang Sheng's home was in a remote location.But even so, some villagers still gathered.Constant fingering, full of vigilance."
Engong, this is my home.My parents left early, and I was left alone.The house next to it is Yingying's in-law's house, and it is also my second uncle's home. ”Wang Sheng pointed to the two thatched houses in front of him and introduced them.The house is made of bluestone and thatched, with a master bedroom and two guest rooms.The courtyard wall is separated by a fence, and there are huge willow trees planted inside, and chickens and ducks are raised under the willow trees.Cui Yingying looked at her in-laws' house, her face was full of guilt, and she didn't even dare to go back.After her in-laws knew that she had an affair with Wang Sheng, they beat her up and cut off relations with her."
It's pretty good here, quiet and natural, much quieter than our Nanjing City."
Wei Ziyou looked at the quaint courtyard and couldn't help but sigh, and after a while, he realized that he had missed his mouth, and hurriedly covered his mouth with his little hand."
It turns out that Engong is from Nanjing, no wonder" Wang Sheng seemed to understand something, and opened his mouth wide in surprise.In his eyes, those who can enter and leave Nanjing must be either rich or expensive.These benevolent fathers must be the sons and daughters of which family."
It's nothing, it's just doing some business in Nanjing."
Qiao Zhiqing glared at Wei Ziyou with a smile, he didn't want to reveal his identity yet.Wei Ziyou stuck out his tongue and obediently hid behind him, never daring to say anything more."
Eun Gong, hurry up and enter the house.I'll prepare some food and drinks for you to thank Engong for saving his life. ”Wang Sheng hurriedly beckoned Qiao Zhiqing and his soldiers into the house, and found a square table with the table in the room, waiting for everyone to sit down.cleaned up in the yard, brought a bowl of spring water to a few people, and went out to cook with Cui Yingying.Although the villagers were ready to soak Wang Sheng and Cui Yingying in the pig cage, after all, they were all in the same village, and they did not demolish the house, and the inside was still the same."
Brother Qiao, you see how good the environment here is, away from strife, just like Tao Yuanming's paradise."
Wei Ziyou stood at the door and looked at the landscape outside the courtyard, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion."
That's the way it is in the countryside, it's still relatively new when I first arrive.If you stay here forever, I'm afraid you'll be suffocating in a few days. ”Qiao Zhiqing laughed, took a sip of the spring water, and it was really sweet and refreshing."
Why, as long as I can be with Brother Qiao, I won't get bored anywhere."
Wei Ziyou turned around and blurted out, and was stunned for a moment.looked at Qiao Zhiqing and his soldiers with a surprised look on their faces stupidly, and looked left and right shyly, hoping to find a crack in the ground to get into.I don't understand how such ambiguous words can come out of my mouth."
Ziyou, you go and help Wang Sheng and the others, and let them prepare meals casually."
Qiao Zhiqing looked at Wei Ziyou's embarrassed appearance, and laughed dumbly, and he didn't know where he liked women.Now he doesn't know how much love debt he owes, in addition to Zeng Jiyun, there is also Pan Qiaoyu and Zhou Xiuying who have no results, where do they still have the heart to think about these things again."
Okay, I'll go right away."
Wei Ziyou seemed to have received amnesty, and hurriedly turned around and ran out of the house, looking very cute and abnormal.All the relatives and soldiers were also amused, picked up the water bowl, replaced the wine with water, and touched a few bowls with Qiao Zhiqing.It was getting dark, and Wang Sheng and Cui Yingying were busy for more than half an hour, and finally prepared the meal.Wei Ziyou doesn't even know how to make a fire, where does he know how to cook.chatted with Cui Yingying in the courtyard for a while, and the more she chatted, the more speculative she became, and she couldn't wait to recognize her sister immediately.She also told Cui Yingying a lot of legal knowledge, and gave Cui Yingying a general introduction to the world of flowers in Nanjing, which made Cui Yingying envious half to death.After the meal was served, Wang Sheng introduced it in the same way, "Engong, this is our farmer's chicken stewed mushrooms, this is fried meat with bamboo shoots, this is green pepper potatoes, this is cold lotus root, and this is sea bass soup with Ulva vegetables."
It's all some peasant dishes, if you taste it or not, I'll let Yingying make a few more dishes. ”"Alright, that's enough.I usually have three dishes and one soup, which is already hearty. ”Qiao Zhiqing hurriedly stopped him and ordered him and Cui Yingying to sit down and eat as well.Cui Yingying hesitated for a long time, she had never eaten at the main table, let alone at the same table with guests.But after Wei Ziyou generously sat down beside Qiao Zhiqing, he hurriedly beckoned her to sit down.Everyone happily moved their chopsticks, and the soldiers were hungry all afternoon, and they all ate with wolves.At this time, there was a sudden uproar of people outside the hospital, and the footsteps were chaotic.It seems that hundreds of people and horses gathered towards the small courtyard, all holding torches, illuminating the entire courtyard
