Chapter 588
While Hua Yuxi was busy helping the men and women of the Second Battalion of Red Sleeves in Huairou to propose marriages, urging Wang Xiaowan to rush to make a batch of gold hairpins as dowry, and more than a hundred sets of wedding clothes for men and women, Lan Feng was also so busy that he almost didn't touch the ground.
Zhu Di appointed him to form the Shenji Battalion, and the personnel will be in place soon. His most urgent task at the moment is to find a camp for the Shenji Battalion, an instructor to teach equestrian skills, and to set up a firearms workshop specializing in manufacturing firecrackers.
None of the three things can be delayed. His goal is to get the Shenji Battalion into a state ready to participate in war at any time within three months.
Different from Lan Qiao's Huairou Camp and Feng Yeling's Changping Camp, Lan Feng's Shenji Camp was finally determined to be located in Beiping City because of its relatively small number of people and Zhu Di's extra attention.
Dao Yan came forward to do this, and eventually a piece of land was opened in the northwest corner of Beiping City, which has basic facilities such as barracks, armory, and school grounds. They also have a horse farm outside the city, which is used to tame military horses and provide riding training for soldiers.
.
It took him five days to complete these things, and there was a small hiccup in the middle.
When Lan Feng was inspecting the site for the horse farm, a group of gangsters from the western suburbs saw that he was thin and easy to bully. They insisted that his horse had eaten their hay and wanted to blackmail him for a sum of money. Lan Feng happened to have no one with him at the time.
He had no money and no one around him, so he was pushed to the ground and beaten violently by the gangsters. Fortunately, Ben Yali appeared in time and drove away the gangsters.
Lan Feng brushed the dust off his body and said to her, "Are you staring at me?"
Ben Yali said angrily: "Don't forget that you promised me to take me to the prairie. If you take the opportunity to run away, or are beaten to death by someone, what will I do?"
Lan Feng spread his hands and said, "Today was purely an accident."
"It's an accident or not." Ben Yali said seriously, "You have many missions now, such as establishing the Shenji camp, making firearms, and bank matters. None of them are easy to handle. It is very likely that you will become friends with others.
Liang Zi, today there are just a few gangsters trying to extort money, so you are lucky."
Lan Feng smiled bitterly and said: "Then you plan to follow me like this all the time? Didn't the second sister-in-law introduce you to Shuxiang Nursing Home?" Ever since Zhu Di announced Lan Qiao and Hua Yuxi's marriage in public, Lan Feng had called her "
Second sister-in-law".
"Why does this princess need to take action in such a trivial matter as protecting the hospital? It's important to keep an eye on you." Ben Yali muttered, "Now that you know about it, I won't hide from you anymore, I will treat you as your master.
A little personal guard in the camp to prevent you from being harmed by villains or women."
Lan Feng touched his nose helplessly: "It seems that you are still worried about me. But you are a Mongolian, can you enter the Shenji Camp?"
Ben Yali retorted: "His Second Highness's Duoyan and three guards are not all Mongolian mercenaries?"
"You understand this clearly." Lan Feng gradually felt the sharp edge of Ben Yali's words, and said shamelessly: "Then you will follow me when I run to the latrine?"
Ben Yali spat: "You think I don't dare?"
From then on, she and Lan Feng were inseparable.
Lan Feng found a workshop that was originally used to make weapons and changed it to make firecrackers. The specifications, drawings and process details of each step of the firecrackers were all provided by Lan Feng, so he stayed up for several more nights.
No matter how late he slept, Ben Yali was always by his side, sometimes chatting with him to relieve his boredom, and sometimes helping him make a cup of hot tea, which actually gave him a different kind of warmth.
Because Zhu Qingxiao also read "The Art of Machinery and Fire", she had a certain understanding of the structural skills of fire guns. Seeing that the relationship between Lan Qiao and Hua Yuxi was a foregone conclusion, she no longer bothered them and often went to Lan Qiao.
Helper in Maple House.
One night late at night, Ben Yali was sitting in Lan Feng's room bored. She was about to go out and twist a hot towel for Lan Feng when she came back, but she bumped into Zhu Qingxiao who burst into the door.
Ben Yali was unlucky and staggered when she was hit by Zhu Qingxiao. Something fell out of her arms and rolled to Zhu Qingxiao's feet.
"Sorry." Zhu Qingxiao knew that he was reckless, so he smiled apologetically, bent down and picked up the jade pendant that was warmed by Ben Yali's cover, and was suddenly startled.
"This is not..." When Lan Ruohai died, Zhu Qingxiao and Lan Qiao Lan Feng were with her. She saw with her own eyes that Lan Ruohai gave Lan Feng the jade pendant with the words "Uncle Dingyuan" engraved on it, letting him take it as a gift.
A token of love given to your sweetheart, "Oh my god, sister, this jade pendant was given to you by Brother Lan Feng? Why have I never seen you take it out?"
Ben Yali was embarrassed to say that she snatched this jade pendant while Lan Feng was drunk, so she could only nod her head and said: "I have always hidden it in my arms, so you haven't seen it."
"Yes, such an important thing should be hidden in your arms." Zhu Qingxiao smiled, and suddenly looked at Ben Yali with a strange look: "But you said that I have never seen it, but you are wrong. This jade pendant
It was Brother Lan Feng's father, my uncle's personal belongings. He had a decisive battle with An Xiaohan, and before he died, he gave this jade pendant to Brother Lan Feng, so that Brother Lan Feng could take this jade pendant when he marries a wife in the future.
As a betrothal gift. Tsk, my sister, you are very suspicious!"
Ben Yali originally grabbed the jade pendant to tease Lan Feng, but she didn't expect that there was a betrothal gift behind it. Her face suddenly turned red and she hesitated: "It's not what you think..."
It was also the first time that Zhu Qingxiao saw Ben Yali, who was originally free and unruly, embarrassed and showing a shy expression. He couldn't help but feel amused: "Brother Lan Feng gave this jade pendant to my sister. Is it because of my sister..."
"Stop talking." Ben Yali covered Zhu Qingxiao's mouth, pushed the latter out of the door and said, "He is still inside, don't let him hear."
"Okay." Seeing Ben Yali's dilemma, Zhu Qingxiao laughed so much that she almost couldn't stand up. "Then I'd better bother you less in the future. Don't bother me. Don't treat me all the time."
Keep a cold face, after all, I am still your sister-in-law."
Ben Yali didn't understand the meaning of "Qingqing me and me" and "you neng me neng", but looking at Zhu Qingxiao's expression, she knew it was better to say that she and Lan Feng had an ambiguous relationship, so she hurriedly clarified: "I haven't even written the horoscope yet.
.”
She is not proficient in Chinese, but she heard this saying from someone, and thought that "there is no such thing" means "nothing at all", but she didn't know that this sentence also includes "Although there is no such thing now, I look forward to it."
"happen, especially refers to the metaphor of the relationship between men and women".
Zhu Qingxiao looked at her ignorant and innocent expression, and laughed dumbly and said: "If my sister doesn't know the meaning of some words, don't say them casually. Of course, my sister is so cute, no one will blame you if you say something wrong."
After that, he stopped going into the house to look for Lan Feng and went back to his room.
