Twenty years old, with exquisite appearance, elegant figure, good cooking skills, not seeking the position of the main wife, and with the unique attribute of "little widow", it is really difficult for Li Shan to refuse.
Although Li Shan kept declining, the smiling mother Su could easily detect... Li Shan's refusal was as vulnerable as snow meeting boiling water.
"She is also a poor person. She is from Dingzhou. Although she is a small family, she has enough food and clothing." Su's mother said softly: "The rebel army broke into the city, her family was destroyed, and she was robbed and left..."
"If Huairen refuses to accept it, he can only stay in Shandong..."
"Aunt, why is this?"
Mother Su sighed: "I am a widow, but I am only twenty years old. I moved to Chang'an this time, and I am now twenty-three. I can't delay it any longer."
Li Shan snorted, saying this euphemistically... in fact, he was saying that the male is strong and the uncle is the elder, and the melons and plums are under the fields.
In fact, this is Mother Su's explanation that Zhou and Su Dingfang have nothing to do with each other... Don't worry, this little widow has no tricks.
"Auntie is really kind-hearted." Having said this, Li Shan could only reluctantly say, "Let's go to Chang'an together first. If Madam Zhou doesn't mind, we can stay with Jia Ci for a few days."
This means that even if you want to take a concubine, you still have to go through my mother's test... In other words, my test is open and unimpeded.
Although the Su family is not a prominent family, they are also from a wealthy family in the countryside. Mother Su understood such roundabout words immediately and said with a smile: "It's okay... This time, my old body almost died. Firstly, it was Huairen's wonderful hand that brought him back to life. Secondly, it was thanks to Zhou."
The lady takes good care of you."
The back room was next door, and Mrs. Zhou was a little anxious. She didn't understand the previous words at all... She only heard that Li Shan didn't respond, but asked herself to serve her mother.
Su's mother said slowly: "I intend to adopt her as my adopted daughter."
Li Shanqing couldn't help but burp. What she ate this morning was the mutton soup cake made by Zhou, which was enough for two large bowls, which was a bit full.
This old lady is really a person, Li Shanqing couldn't help but think. She rounded the corner and cornered the person, and she was also the adopted sister of Su Dingfang... This was no longer just Li Shanna's concubine, she had almost become the Li family's concubine.
The tie that binds the Su family.
You must know that the Su family is not a wealthy family, and its population is small, so it does not have the capital to be both powerful and powerful.
I wonder if this old lady has left a name in history... Li Shan narrowed his eyes. Since it can't be torn apart, he might as well press it all in. This is not a choice that an ordinary woman can make.
.
After a long time, Li Shancai whispered: "My nephew is not lying. He is indeed not a descendant of the Li family in Longxi."
"I know."
"Auntie, the situation in the Tang Dynasty is chaotic. King Qin's military achievements are world-famous and he is coveted by others. In the battle to seize the direct descendants in the capital, King Qin has no chance of winning."
Mother Su smiled and picked up the tea cup, "My life, Mr. Ling's life, and the lives of many young and old in the village are all due to Huairen... there is no resentment in life or death."
After being silent for a long time, Li Shan chuckled and said, "Auntie has a very cheerful temperament. She must be able to talk to mother."
"That's a good thing." Mother Su smiled and said: "If there is an empty house, live next to each other and come and go every day."
"Auntie, don't worry. My nephew has asked Li Demou to take the lead. When the business in Shandong is over and he returns to Chang'an, there will be a new house."
After Ling Jing made up his mind, he sent out many letters in the past two or three days. He didn't know how many people he could recruit, but he only asked Li Shan... if the house in Zhujiagou was enough.
Before Li Kai left Beijing and went south, he went to Zhujiagou several times to visit the Zhu family. A few months ago, more than a thousand refugees settled in Zhujiagou. After that, they returned to their hometowns one after another, but there were also four to five hundred people who stayed to settle down. It happened to be a quiet winter.
There is no shortage of manpower.
After Li Shan asked a few more questions about Su's mother's injury, he turned around and left the house, taking Zhu Ba and others to the clinic... There were still twenty or thirty people whose operations had not been completed, but Li Shan also learned well and used various methods to
Methods can be used to stop the bleeding, so the limb can be amputated to save life.
After another tiring day, Li Shan was spinning at high speed like a robot, whether it was his brain, hands or feet...even his emotions were the same.
As the sun set, several young men came in carrying a young man with bleeding profusely on his arm.
The young man's face was pale. Not only was his arm bleeding, there was blood seeping out from his pants, and there was an arrow on his shoulder that had most of the arrow's branches cut off.
Li Shan, who was working on the last wounded man, glanced sideways and kept moving his hands. Just two days ago, he let the knife made by the blacksmith in the city gently cut open the wounded man's chest, and blood immediately flowed into a river.
Li Shan may have some methods to stop bleeding through amputation. For this kind of surgery, Li Shan, who had only used electrocoagulation and clamping to stop bleeding, had no choice but to speed up his hand.
But in the eyes of others, especially the young man who just came in, a strange man wearing a mask was holding a dagger and calmly slashed the wounded man's chest open, with one hand picking up the wound on the chest, and with the other
There are those organs inside, and I lower my head from time to time to take a closer look...
"Wipe the sweat."
Li Shan felt a little unhappy with the rough cloth wiping his face and forehead. This job should be done by a female nurse.
After a while, Li Shan stopped, straightened up, strode away, washed his hands, and said casually: "Carry it away."
Several personal guards skillfully carried the injured... no, the body on the stage to the door panel, preparing to pull it out, name it, and bury it.
"Next."
One of the two young men grabbed his arm, the other grabbed his foot. The young man who had just witnessed a failed operation couldn't help shouting: "No, no, a certain person has made great contributions to the Tang Army!"
"The benevolence and righteousness of the Tang Dynasty was even greater than that of the King of Xia. How could he kill like this?!"
The young man who sent the messenger was very surprised and subconsciously touched his waist, "You are not my sergeant?!"
The young man sent was obviously wearing a Tang army uniform, but he turned out to be a fake.
"That's all."
Li Shan didn't care about this. Anyway, it was a matter of increasing his proficiency... and then, treating the injuries of Liu Heita's soldiers was an inevitable method in Huairou.
Washing the knife carefully, Li Shan thought to himself that the blacksmiths in Hebei are quite high-level, sharp and tough... But the knives he brought were all made by ordinary blacksmiths. He didn't know if there were any master craftsmen working under the Ministry of Industry in Beijing.
What level.
Seeing Li Shan turning around with a knife in his hand, the young man who had been carried up twisted his body crazily, "In the battle of Wei County, a certain army burned grain and grass to help the Tang army win..."
"What?" Li Shan was stunned, "Did you set that fire?"
"Yes, yes, it was someone who released it." The young man's voice was already crying, "I had wanted to join the Tang army for a long time, but I couldn't find a way..."
Li Shan listened to Su Dingfang's experience of the Wei County War. Without that fire, the Tang army would have won, because Cheng Minzhen had already led his army to cross the river and take a circuitous route. But with that fire, the Tang army could quickly defeat Liu Heitai's main force and mobilize its troops quickly.
Chasing the remnants of Liu Heitai's troops.
In other words, Liu Heitai's own life and death has a certain relationship with this fire.
Li Shan's eyes softened, and just when the young man thought he had escaped disaster... Li Shan walked to the edge of the stage and chuckled: "Don't worry, I'll move faster later."
Although his body was covered in blood and his flesh and blood were sticky due to the temperature, Li Shan checked and found that there were no serious injuries.
The young man's face turned pale. What did this sentence mean?
Move quickly...do you mean not torturing people, just slit their throats?
Li Shan quickly realized that the wounded man on the stage seemed to have misunderstood, but he did not explain. He only stretched out the hand holding the knife and made two gestures.
At this time, Zhu Ba suddenly came in and whispered in his ear: "Da Lang, Mrs. Zhou has brought food."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ms. Zhou walked into the tent carrying a basket. She looked up and saw Li Shan with a shy smile.
Li Shan was stunned for a moment. This tent was an operating room, and there were blood stains everywhere, but Mrs. Zhou didn't panic.
Just as he was about to speak, the young man who was twisting wildly on the stage suddenly stiffened and stared at Zhou in shock, "Three...Three sisters?"
With a crash, the basket in Zhou's hand fell and she rushed to the edge of the stage, "Second brother, second brother!"
After a period of confusion about saving lives and saving lives, Li Shan finally figured it out.
Zhou Erlang was also quite unlucky. When the Wei County War just started, he led his troops to the east and then turned north. As a result, he was bumped into by Xue Zhong's troops who were going to recapture Bozhou and Texas.
Almost all of his men were dead. Zhou Erlang himself managed to escape, but was seriously injured not far from Guantao. This guy was very clever and changed into the clothes of a Tang soldier early, but was discovered by the scouts and sent away.
Arrived in the city.
"This... is difficult to handle." Li Shan touched the hair on his chin, "Impersonating a Tang soldier is a capital crime..."
After treating his injuries, Zhou Erlang has been sent to the next door. There are only two people in the tent, Li Shan and Zhou.
"Please have mercy on me." Mrs. Zhou bent her knees and squatted half down, with crystal tears hanging on her raised face.
After hearing these words, Li Shan, who had been a monk for two months, couldn't help but couldn't help but stretched out his hand... Oops, he even turned away shyly.
Li Shan clicked his tongue twice in his heart, raised his right hand, and pinched the crystal clear earlobe with two fingers.
Zhou's body trembled, but she didn't move away anymore, her heart was filled with pain.
Li Shan felt that what he said this morning was clear enough, and now it was just consumption in advance.
And Mrs. Zhou only felt that... Li Shan clearly refused to accept her as a concubine, but he wanted to treat her lightly. It was obviously just a matter of greed, after all, she had been robbed by others.
"I'll ask Mr. Tian..." Li Shan pulled Zhou up, rolled up his right hand, and his small and exquisite body was already sitting on his lap.
This time, not only Zhou's cheeks, but also her neck where the fine hairs were visible were blushing... A woman from a good family in ancient times really couldn't stand this.
"If you let your second brother go..."
"Slave family..." Mrs. Zhou gritted her teeth and shed tears, "It all depends on Mr. Lang."
After all, he is a kind person. Li Shan suddenly felt that he was really not a good person. He was originally a proletarian with upright roots, but why did he become so useless now?
Have I been changed by this era?
Li Shan coughed twice, supported Zhou's waist and stood up, "My aunt has entrusted me with this responsibility, and I have no obligation to do so. I have to bear the responsibility of this matter."
Seeing Li Shan's sudden change of appearance, Mrs. Zhou was confused. After a while, she whispered confusedly: "I am willing to serve the old lady."
Li Shan huffed and couldn't help but put his head in the air and whispered: "This morning, didn't you hear clearly?"
"Even if I want to accept you, I have to ask my mother."
"Let's wait until we return to Chang'an."
Zhou's mouth opened into an O shape, "Lang Jun, Lang Jun..."
Staring at the translucent and reddish ears, Li Shan couldn't help but stretched out his hand to touch them again. This time, Zhou suddenly took a step back to avoid them. His body was very neat, but his face was quite happy.
"Ma Zhou went to Bozhou with Xue Changshi. Remember to leave some hot water for someone to soak his feet tonight."
For a weak woman who once had no worries about food and clothing, but then her family was ruined and she was forcibly married, and then she took care of the Su family, this is the best ending.
In a sense, Su's mother was motivated by interests when she adopted Zhou as her adopted daughter and made Li Shan her concubine.
But from Li Shan's point of view, he has no selfish desires... he is just greedy.
So, after Li Shan finished all the work for the day and returned home, the hot water Zhou prepared for him was enough for a bath, not to mention soaking his feet.
"Will this barrel leak?"
"Mr. Lang is joking." Mrs. Zhou untied Li Shan's bun, put it in water and washed it slowly with her hands. From time to time, she used a spoon to scoop up hot water and pour it on Li Shan's neck and forehead.
Li Shan leaned against the side of the bucket tiredly. He hadn't taken a shower in two months, and he had also traveled a long distance, and his body had accumulated a thick layer of dirt.
"You have quite strong hands." Li Shan joked casually, and added: "Your second brother has been sent to the alley. The conditions there are better and the food is better than here. I have already warned Zhao Da and the others."
Zhou's little hands rubbed Li Shan's arm vigorously, "Thank you, Mr. Tian..."
"Don't worry." Li Shan said lazily. How could Tian Liu'an not give face to such a trivial matter? "Speaking of which, your second brother also contributed a lot to Wei County's victory. Does he want to join the army?"
"My second brother has practiced martial arts since he was a child. He rides a bad horse and draws a strong bow, but now he is the only male in the family..."
Li Shan grabbed Mrs. Zhou's little hand and said, "There are many houses in Zhujiagou. Even if they are not enough, the house at home is enough..."
Zhou exerted a little force but could not pull her right hand back, so she could only let Li Shan hold it. She switched to her left hand and rubbed Li Shan's body, and asked in a low voice: "I heard that your husband has not married yet?"
"Why, are you afraid that your mistress will treat you harshly?" Li Shan said teasingly, "Don't worry, as long as someone loves you."
As he spoke, Li Shan tilted his head, explored his neck, applied force to his mouth, rolled a delicate and fragrant tongue into his mouth, and tasted it carefully.
Li Shan really doesn’t have much experience in this area. In his previous life, because of his appearance...mainly because he was focused on his studies, Li Shan has never been in a relationship. Apart from theoretical knowledge, he mainly took a few showers.
foot.
If you go to take a shower and wash your feet, you really can’t exercise your tongue. Everyone knows.
However, in this life, with Xiaoman around, Li Shan's experience value increased rapidly. After a while, Zhou's cheeks were red and she was in a daze. She didn't know when she was pulled into the bathtub by Li Shan.
Hearing the faint sound of splashing water, Ling Jing sneered silently and took a few steps into the opposite door, "It's sanctimonious in the morning, but at night..."
Mother Su smiled and said: "It is common for young people to be unable to control their temper."
Ling Jing sighed: "I will set off around the Spring Festival to go to Chang'an. I want to do something, but this trip is really unpredictable."
Ling Jing's eyes are so poisonous. In his opinion, Li Shan is impeccable in every aspect...but he's just too lustful!
All the way south, as long as nothing happened, Li Shan would always keep an eye on the carriage unconsciously, and would go in from time to time to check on Su's mother's injuries. Obviously, he had other motives.
Well, I have to say that the first impression is very important. After all, the first time Ling Jing met Li Shan... the latter just took off Ling Jing's granddaughter's shirt and took a clear, real look.
I've been a little busy the past two days. Sorry, I'll be more relaxed from tomorrow on. I'll resume normal updates the day after tomorrow.
