Chapter 12 Engagement

Some people are willing to listen to what Ling Xiao says. Although some tenants know that the He family's daughter is a woman, she is very thoughtful and is still the only small landowner in the village.

Master Liu saved up his money after getting his wife's wages, and finally bought the land for his granddaughter, with half for each grandson. He felt that girls should also have property to defend themselves. Huanlang was still young, and Ling Xiao was responsible for taking care of his land.

.

In addition, some of the tenant farmers in Zhuangzi also saw clearly that the people who were mainly taught by the samurai were mainly the He family. It was only the He family who felt that the tenants might go to the battlefield that they asked the samurai to give them guidance.

As tenants, they did not worship the warriors as their teachers, nor did they receive any benefits. They were very lucky to be able to be pointed out what they needed on the battlefield, and they were still grateful to Ling Xiao from the bottom of their hearts.

Because someone specifically inquired, there was no other landowner around who was as generous as the Ling Xiao siblings and could teach others how to go on the battlefield.

No one in Zhuangzi knew what the He family's military strength was at first. They knew that a big incident happened once and a trafficker came to Zhuangzi and wanted to abduct someone.

It happened that the traffickers saw Huanlang. You must know that Huanlang is better-looking than the children of the farmers. He does not need to live in the world. Naturally, his skin is not very dark, and he is better-looking than ordinary children. Naturally, the traffickers take notice of him and want to kidnap him.

Walk.

Huanlang was also a trained person. Although some people with short legs showed their abilities, they were definitely not caught. Instead, they started shouting for help. Ling Xiao happened to hear the sound nearby and rushed over.

And it was because of this action that the tenants knew that this woman from the He family was very powerful and could directly kick the opponent until he vomited blood. After that, she had more say in Zhuangzi.

Since there are people who admire the He family wholeheartedly, and there are also people who are dissatisfied with what the He family does, I feel that the opportunity to study and practice martial arts should be given to those who need it more, such as him.

He completely forgot one very important thing. The He family was not related to him, let alone owed him anything. Why would they give their resources to a person they were completely unfamiliar with?

In Ling Xiao's opinion, it is impossible for her to carry everyone's future on her shoulders. Teaching the tenants a little bit is more about increasing their chances of survival on the battlefield, but she will not think about training them.

General Cheng, this is not her responsibility.

She thinks she has done a lot and will not do more, but you must know that it is difficult for a farmer's child to live a better life. Generally, he does not have the capital for promotion, and even if he wants to learn to read, he can't find a place.

There is no opportunity for promotion.

It was not until Ling Xiao arrived that the people in Zhuangzi were freed from the possibility of becoming illiterate. Just knowing how to read did not mean that they could be officials. Official positions were controlled by various families, and a commoner had no chance.

The only opportunity for ordinary people to change their family is to obtain an official position after winning a war. After becoming an official, they can then think about how to integrate into the officials step by step.

This is the best opportunity for a commoner, and this opportunity is only achieved because of Ling Xiao's decision, and cannot be found by himself. In this regard, Ling Xiao has done a great thing.

This also led to some people who were not very happy to hear Ling Xiao's words, but did not dare to openly turn against him directly. They would only feel unhappy in their hearts, feeling that the words contained a curse.

As a person who has traveled through time and space many times, Ling Xiao's acuity is much higher than that of others. Naturally, he noticed that the other party was unhappy, and he quickly understood it. He probably thought that he had the characteristics of a crow's mouth.

Haha! I really feel like I don’t know what to say. When she spoke, she was just reminding you to pay attention to safety. Once you achieve great success, not everyone can get what they want. Don’t give up everything just to be an official.

You can give up.

She thought she didn't mean to curse. Ten people who went out for military service might not come back in the end. She just reminded them, but the other party regarded them as malicious curses. Damn it! Ling Xiao was very unhappy.

Fortunately, someone sensed Ling Xiao's kind reminder and thanked her with a very pious attitude, making her feel that her efforts were not in vain. Alas! If it weren't for these grateful people, she wouldn't be too lazy to be a good person.

It is true that the same words have different thoughts in different people's ears. Ling Xiao intends to remind other kind-hearted people who are serving in the military together to be careful with what they say to prevent doing good deeds from being used as a plot.

After discovering the problem, Ling Xiao didn't think much of that guy at all. He was still too young and thought he could rise to the top if he had some skills? Wrong! Although there weren't many capable people, there were definitely more people than she imagined.

If you want to be successful, you must not only be capable, but also have emotional intelligence, skill, and luck. The last point is very important. Anyway, that kind of rude and long-faced behavior is very annoying. I don’t want to

Thinking about who gave him some skills, he is really not a smart person.

Everyone who cared about this scene saw it, and naturally they were not satisfied with this behavior. Those people knew very well how they could have such good skills without Ling Xiao's cultivation. Ling Xiao was really as kind as a mountain to them.

They did not feel that Ling Xiao's words were unpleasant, but were very excited. This was the He family's wife telling them to be careful. This also led to Ling Xiao's two attitudes after speaking: he was very excited when he felt good, and he was very excited when he felt bad.

It's like eating a fly.

If I hadn't thought that my family was still living in Zhuangzi, and if I hadn't remembered that my skills were taught by He Xiaoniang from Sichen Sichen, as a person who had received a little favor, I wouldn't have been able to fall out with Ling Xiao.

I cursed in my heart.

Because his unhappiness attracted everyone's attention, he also felt it, so he tried his best to show a smile, but it was a superficial smile, and he made up his mind to settle the score later.

Ling Xiao could see that this kind of people started to drift before they were developed, and they were not as good as those who served in the military before. However, she did not intend to point them out directly, but simply said: "You don't want to

If you laugh, don’t laugh.”

After saying that, she completely ignored the person who was shocked by her words and went home without saying anything else. Anyway, she gave them all the things she gave them, and they had to rely on themselves for the rest.

And Ling Xiao can't give them anything more. Those who want to work hard must work hard on their own. I believe that in order to achieve this goal, some people can give everything they have, and Ling Xiao will not care about it.

It is said that Ling Xiao once wanted to know how the He family was doing after crossing over, but later found out that the distance was quite far and the transportation was very inconvenient. Moreover, she also took revenge at that time and didn't care much about the He family.

Later, I heard Yang Dalang say: There was also a large-scale civil unrest near the He family. The He family was probably torn apart, and it was not known where the rest of them had gone. After Ling Xiao found out, he didn't care about the He family even more.

After confirming that the second batch of men serving in the military had left, Ling Xiao was wondering what he should do. He didn't know how long this battle for the dynasty would last. Hey, would it be Huanlang's turn to go to the battlefield?

Hey! You must know that there are advantages to them now that they are separated from the He family: they do not need to deal with relatives with ulterior motives, but it also means fighting alone.

Without the protection of the family, the family became a poor family. In addition to paying land taxes, they also had to perform labor and military service. Thinking of this possibility made my head hurt.

It's impossible if there is no official in the family, but now the He family only has a child, Huanlang. This body is just that of a woman, so naturally she cannot pursue a future.

Hey! Forget it! In order to avoid betraying the original owner when he comes back, it is better for her to keep a low profile, because the situation outside is really not good, so it is better for her to stay here.

Even if some bandits come here, she is not afraid, but Ling Xiao is not afraid of a few bandits. Those who dare to come are waiting to be stabbed, so she lives well.

There are relatively few rogue bandits who can come here, because it is next to the Yang family, and the Yang family is a local snake in this place and is considered the largest force in the local area, which ensures that rogue bandits generally will not come here.

And at this time, Ling Xiao received the people from the Yang family and found out that Yang Juan's marriage would be settled after she was discharged. What? Decided? I don't know where she would marry?

Ling Xiao was a little surprised, but soon understood that Yang Juan, as the party concerned, could not make the decision about her own marriage. Only the eldest husband could make the decision, and he did not know whether he would find a good husband for his sister.

Hey! Ling Xiao wanted to sigh. You must know that it is very important for a woman to get married. It is equivalent to reincarnation for the second time. Whether the rest of her life is good or bad depends on this marriage.

She was unable to stop Yang Juan from getting engaged because she had no position to stop it. If Yang Juan never got married, she would be under great pressure.

Nowadays, Ling Xiao has another reason not to get married due to his physical disability, but Yang Juan does not. If she does not get married, she may be criticized by others, and it may also delay her niece's future. It is completely impossible for her not to get married.

During this period of time, many families were involved in trouble due to the turmoil, and they managed to escape. However, Yang Juan could not find a suitable family, and she was almost twenty-nine years old and still did not get engaged.

Walking in the direction of the old girl little by little, the Yang family was very anxious, but there was nothing they could do about it, because they really couldn't get married at this time. Maybe the groom-to-be would die or something would happen to him just after they got engaged.

Later, Yang Dalang met a fellow villager outside and made an engagement. It was said that this man was a descendant of the royal family of this dynasty, but they belonged to a relatively distant branch many years ago.

After their ancestors were divided, they gave birth to too many children, and the children gave birth to children one after another. Except for the direct branches, many branches gradually disappeared from the royal family tree.

This fellow is also in the same situation, but his family is still a minor official, but his father also died in a riot. Fortunately, there are many brothers and sisters in the family, so there is no robbery of family property.

That family also belonged to a relatively well-established family, and it was considered a well-matched family compared to the Yang family. When Yang Dalang saw that he was about the same age as his sister, he quickly made a decision.

Ling Xiao nodded after hearing the news, that's good! Yang Dalang probably wouldn't cheat his sister, hey! Probably because he was afraid that his sister would have to be a stepmother after she became an old girl.

Yang Dalang was considered a good brother. Ling Xiao planned to prepare something specially for Yang Juan when she got married, but she still wanted to see Yang Juan.

When Yang Juan finally came out of her filial piety period, she invited Ling Xiao to her home. She had too many thoughts and wanted to talk to someone, and it was really uncomfortable.

After receiving the news, Ling Xiao calculated that she had not seen Yang Juan for a while, so she agreed, telling the visitor that she would go see Yang Juan the next day, and drive an ox cart to see Yang Juan early the next morning.

.

Yang Juan picked up Ling Xiao after receiving the news. You should know that few people came to visit Shouxiao these days. She was really lonely. Fortunately, it was for her parents. She was willing to bear this loneliness many times.

But it's good to start a new life, especially since she is getting married, which makes her, who has always been very stable, feel uneasy because she doesn't know what the future holds.

When she met Ling Xiao at the side door, she saw that he was wearing a Hu suit made of fine linen, wearing wooden clogs, his hair was tied up, and he was wearing a wooden crown. However, she found that Ling Xiao had a bit more heroic spirit about him.

She was holding a sword, which made Yang Juan smile. She remembered that her elder brother said that her friend had good swordsmanship, and now looking at her friend like this, she looked like a knight-errant.

Ling Xiao naturally also saw Yang Juan, who was wearing dark clothes and looking at him. After not seeing her for some days, she realized that this friend must be living a heavy life, and her whole person suddenly lost a bit of sunshine.

Because of her filial piety, Yang Juan was very thin. She used to be like a wealthy flower in the world, but now she is very thin. Fortunately, she is still a beauty. Hey! A good foundation is a good thing.

Yang Juan smiled when she saw her friend. The two of them knelt down and held hands. Yang Juan thought about something unhappy and really didn't know what to do.

Ling Xiao looked at her with a bit of curiosity and asked, "What's wrong? Your face doesn't look very good, something happened?" There was a bit of doubt in her tone, but it was more of an affirmation.

Yang Juan wanted to nod and admit, but she felt that she couldn't go too far. Her request would make it difficult for her friends, so she sighed and said, "Hey! These are all difficult things. Forget it, don't worry about it."

."

Ling Xiao took a look and didn't say anything. She felt that the Yang family wanted her to do something, but Yang Juan didn't seem to agree, so she didn't pay too much attention to it, and instead talked about Yang Juan's marriage.

Yang Juan was naturally a little shy at the moment, but she could also tell that she was a little happy. That was because a girl was a little longing for a new life, but also a little uneasy.

As the two of them talked, Yang Juan gradually forgot about her troubles and had no intention of asking about that matter. She said that she was her adopted sister and she really couldn't ask.

Just when she decided to find someone else, Yang Dalang's later wife just pushed open the door and ran in without saying hello, without even a courtesy, and shouted anxiously, "Sister-in-law, did you say it?"

Yang Juan's face suddenly turned red with anger. Say what you want! Of course you can't say it. She didn't even consider what the person involved would encounter, and then ran out.

If Yang Juan hadn't done a good job in cultivating her Qi, she would have thought of slapping her sister-in-law on the ear. How could this be possible? Her adopted sister is a woman and she doesn't agree with this at all.
