Jia Rong gently stroked the hairpin, and the smile on his face became thicker and gentler. Wei Fu was puzzled. Could it be that her husband has been worried and uneasy since he came back from school, and he also showed silly smiles from time to time. There is no trace of it at all.
The demeanor that a general should have is just because of this hairpin?
"Fu'er, there's something I haven't told you." Jia Rong sat up straight and said slowly.
Wei Fu stood beside Jia Rong obediently, listening quietly.
A sense of apology arose in Jia Rong's heart. Wei Fu had been with him through life and death. After becoming his wife, she became even more responsible for managing the family, gentle and gentle, as if she had changed her overbearing personality. Even her children had grown up and could be called
A good wife and mother.
"Go and call Yan'er, Huan'er and Ling'er to my room." Jia Rong said softly.
"At the beginning, he was just a lonely and helpless man. He came to a village by chance and met an old man in the village. The old man treated him very kindly. Even though his family was poor, he still entertained me with the best food. He had a daughter, who was aged
Fang Erba, after getting along with him for a period of time, my favorite thing is to be by his side."
"One day, he went to the market with several teenagers from the village, and met robbers on the way..."
"With his own ability, he soon became the coach in the village, responsible for the training of the strong men in the village, while the woman always hid in a corner and watched secretly, thinking that she was doing very rigorous things, but in fact he had discovered it long ago.
But he never pointed it out. At that time, he thought that he was just a lonely person with nothing, and he shouldn't have such a kind woman."
"The military calamity was ruthless, and the conscription order from the prefecture quickly reached every village. He was among them, leading the strong men in the village to rush to the battlefield. That evening, the woman mustered up all her courage and expressed her love for him in her heart.
After speaking out, the two of them made a private decision for the rest of their lives. The woman was willing to wait in the village until he returned, and he also decided that after joining the army, he must make a career and return to the village to win the woman in glory."
"Time passed by. When he returned to the village with his soldiers, it had become a scorched earth. After inquiring, he learned that there was a group of robbers in the nearby mountains who often went down the mountain to plunder. The village was also poisoned. The elders in the village
Weak women and children were all kidnapped and taken to the mountains."
The four women are all passionate people. When they heard this, their heartstrings were already raised. Although Jia Rong used an extremely calm tone, they still felt what the situation was like at that time.
Jia Rong paused for a moment and continued: "In anger, he broke down the bandit's stronghold. Where was the woman? When he asked about the woman, he was already insulted and committed suicide."
Jia Rong's eyes suddenly became a little misty.
Cai Yan couldn't help but burst into tears when he heard the woman's tragic experience. The eyes of the other three women were also red. These are troubled times, which have broken up pairs of lovers. If they hadn't met Jia Rong, their fate might have been like in the story.
Like a woman.
"Ten years have passed, and now he suddenly found the hairpin he gave to the woman. At this time, he is already in a high position and has a lovely wife and young children at home." Jia Rong sighed.
Cai Yan showed a trace of unbearability on his face and said: "Even so, he should go find that woman. If you like someone, why should you care about status? In the house, I am not an equal wife, not as good as Sister Fu'er.
But my husband still treats me very well."
Jia Rong touched Cai Yan's head lovingly and said with a smile: "Yan'er is very well-behaved. Of course my husband loves you." Yan Bi cast a grateful look at Wei Fu. In the general's mansion, Wei Fu was the head wife and according to etiquette.
To put it bluntly, it seemed that Cai Yan was from the countryside when he saw her, and his words were extremely respectful. Wei Fu and Cai Yan got along like sisters.
Wei Fu also said: "Husband, is it possible?"
A wry smile appeared on Jia Rong's lips and he said, "Yes, the man in the story is me."
"Ah, there is such a thing, why haven't I heard my husband mention it before?" Although Wei Fu guessed the answer, she was still extremely surprised.
"Husband, what are you going to do?" Cai Yan asked, not expecting Jia Rong to have such an experience.
Jia Rong walked up and down and said, "It is precisely because of my indecision that I came to you for advice. I wonder what it will be like when I meet her now."
There are two more women, Mi Huan and Cai Ling, in the house. Wei Fu doesn't care about one more. Moreover, she is Jia Rong's official wife. She must be broad-minded. "Husband, why don't you go there in person and give her some lectures?"
Maybe we will come to Chang'an with my husband, and we will have an additional sister, wouldn't it be a good thing?"
Jia Rong nodded and said: Well, that's what I meant."
Cai Ling and Mi Huan were also very happy that Jia Rong could share such news with them. This showed that Jia Rong had accepted them in his heart. It was only a matter of time before they got married. However, thinking about their status as concubines,
A look of disappointment flashed through her eyes. In terms of beauty, Cai Ling and Mi Huan were alluring. She may have been pursued by many men, but she unexpectedly ended up as a concubine. The disappointment caused by the gap can be imagined.
Wei Fu seemed to have seen through the two girls' thoughts, and stepped forward and said softly: "From now on, we are sisters. Wouldn't it be nice for the family to be happy without so much emphasis."
Cai Ling Mi Huan nodded repeatedly, and the unhappiness in her heart immediately disappeared.
In the evening, a group of more than a hundred people rode on tall horses and disappeared outside Chang'an City.
Unconsciously reaching into his arms, Jia Rong's face showed a color of satisfaction. After a strong struggle with his thoughts, he also thought about it. Even if Xiu'er got married, he would properly arrange Xiu'er's family. If he didn't get married, it would be a matter of course.
I want to marry Jia Rong. Some things may have been destined by God, so why force it.
"General, is there something big happening in Wuwei County? Do you want to recruit soldiers along the way?" During the break, Li Shun stepped forward and asked doubtfully.
Jia Rong shook his head, "No need. Soldiers are strictly prohibited from disturbing the people along the way. Anyone who violates this will be severely punished."
"General, don't worry, those brats are obedient. Even if they don't say anything, they don't dare to harass the people. They are all poor people. How could they do that kind of thing." Li Hu said with a fierce head. Years of fighting on the battlefield have changed him.
He is smarter than a monkey, and his superficial simplicity is just a cover-up.
"Let's go back to Hechi County and have a look." Jia Rong looked over and said softly.
"Hechi County." Li Shun, Li Hu, and Li Li were all shocked when they heard this place name. Of course, they would not forget that place.
"Well, it's time to go back and take a look." Li Shun's tone was profound.
With fast horses galloping, a group of people rushed to Hechi County under the stars. In order not to disturb the normal order of the local area, Jia Rong only said that he was ordered to come to Hechi to investigate the case. Even so, it also made the local magistrate busy.
This team is not something that a small county magistrate can afford to offend.
As the hometown of Li Shun and others, Hechi County is still developing very well. The people along the way have rosy faces, and there is no situation like other places where they are not fully clothed.
The bustling town gave Jia Rong the feeling he had when he first led his soldiers into Hechi County.
"General, I am the magistrate of Hechi County, Zhao Neng. I don't know why the general is here. If he is sent, I will do my best." Zhao Neng bowed respectfully. Although the general in front of him claimed to be a camp general, he did not say anything about it.
Dare to trust the big one.
"Well, Magistrate Zhao has worked hard and disturbed your county. I feel quite guilty. There is no need to alarm the county government about this matter. In terms of position, I am just a camp general of the Xiliang Army. Mr. Zhao's position is higher than mine, so there is no need to be polite."
Jia Rong waved his hand and said.
Many officials under the Xiliang Army had only heard of Jia Rong's name, but not many had actually seen him. Zhao Neng was an official who was promoted later, so he was naturally very unfamiliar with Jia Rong, but Jia Rong vaguely revealed Ali's
The momentum made Zhao Neng not dare to look down upon him in the slightest. How could there be no one behind the people who came out of Chang'an?
"General, if you have any needs, just ask the county government." Zhao Neng said, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He is one of the few generals in the army who is unwilling to offend. Jia Rong started his career in the army, and he attaches great importance to the army.
More than any other prince in the Central Plains, he does not think that any warrior is vulgar or anything like that. The people under the rule of the Xiliang Army rely on the army to live a happy and stable life.
"Looking at this matter, we really need Mr. Zhao." Jia Rong frowned and said, "Do you know Liujiazhuang?"
"Liujiazhuang?" There are so many villages in Hechi County. Can Zhao Neng remember them all? "I'll ask you. I think some of the soldiers below will know."
Jia Rong said: "I'm sorry to bother Mr. Zhao. Let's rest here for one night and set off early tomorrow morning."
Zhao Neng said hurriedly: "The general has come from afar. I want to hold a banquet in my house to welcome the general and wash away his dust."
"Oh, Mr. Zhao seems to be very rich. It seems that the county magistrate's salary is not much?" Jia Rong asked.
Zhao Neng hurriedly explained: "The general has misunderstood. My family used to do business and has some wealth." He was surprised in his heart. It seemed that the person in front of him was not an ordinary military general.
Jia Rong nodded and said: "There is no need to hold a banquet. I will worry about the food for the soldiers below."
Zhao Neng nodded and hurried away. Zhao Neng was a scholar and felt an unusual aura from the hundreds of soldiers brought by Jia Rong. He also paid more and more attention to Jia Rong.
The next day, when the sky was slightly brighter, Jia Rong had already stood up and carefully looked at the hairpin in his hand under the light. He touched it a thousand times and still didn't get bored.
"Let's go!" More than a hundred people galloped towards Liujiazhuang.
"How far is it?" Jia Rong sounded slightly anxious.
The soldier clasped his fists and said, "General, we only have half an hour." The soldier was a garrison in the city and was from Liujiazhuang. He was very satisfied with the job given by the county magistrate. After leading these people back to Liujiazhuang, he could go home to visit someone.
