Chapter 1650: Only marry people who are in love with each other
Su Liancheng took the initiative and said, "I heard from Letian that you have been in Qi for the past few years?"
Jiang Huatong nodded: "Yes, after I left the First City, I didn't know where I was going, so I followed my own will and headed north."
"Then we went to the wilderness without knowing it. There was chaos in Qi State. We robbed a few granaries and took root in Qi State."
Su Liancheng asked her: "Now that you are free, can you tell me what happened to you in the past two years?"
Jiang Huatong knew that he was asking her out. She had always been very thin-skinned, but just like that, her face turned a little red, but she still nodded and said: "Okay."
After she finished speaking, she asked: "How have you been, young city lord, these two years?"
Su Liancheng nodded: "Fortunately, there are a lot of things in the city, but I can barely cope with them."
"It's just that my parents are urging me to get married very much, which makes me a little annoyed sometimes."
Jiang Huatong looked towards him, he was looking at her with gentleness in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
She heard the underlying meaning of his words, but for a moment she didn't know how to respond.
She was already thin-skinned, but now she blushed even more when he looked at her like this.
She said softly: "The young city lord is almost 30 years old. He has never married a wife yet. He has nothing at his knees. It is not surprising that the city lord would urge the marriage."
Su Liancheng smiled and said, "What Miss Jiang said makes sense."
"It's just a matter of emotion, there's no room for any reluctance."
"If there is no one I love, I would rather never marry."
Jiang Huatong was stunned for a moment when he heard these words, his eyelashes trembled, and he looked at him again.
He asked her: "Miss Jiang, in the past few years in Qi State, has she found any people she likes?"
Jiang Huatong lowered his head slightly, but shook his head slightly.
She felt a little nervous. If Su Liancheng asked anything else, how should she answer?
Unexpectedly, Su Liancheng just chuckled and didn't say anything on this matter. Instead, he introduced this newly built town to her.
Su Liancheng comes here often and is very familiar with it. He introduced these things to her and it became a treasure trove.
He has a calm temperament, and his voice is very calm when he speaks, with a slightly deep voice.
Talking to her like this at this time, Jiang Huatong had something on his mind, so he just listened to his voice and did not listen to what he introduced in detail.
In her heart, because he didn't continue on the topic just now, she couldn't tell whether she was disappointed or relieved.
She looked at Su Liancheng talking eloquently and felt that she was too nervous.
It was somewhat rude of her to be like this, and she was too busy to concentrate on listening to him.
Su Liancheng could feel her restraint. He knew that she was thin-skinned. Today was just the first day of their reunion, so there was no need to be too anxious.
Now that he knows that she doesn't have anyone he likes, it means that he still has a chance.
Tang Miaoxin once told him that the most important thing to avoid in emotional matters is too much pressure, and things should be done naturally.
Even though he was a little anxious, he couldn't offend her.
Su Letian and Ning Changping's wedding is scheduled to take place in three days. Jiang Huatong will probably stay in the First City for a few days after the wedding.
In this case, Jiang Huatong will stay in the first city for at least seven days, and he still has time.
Su Liancheng is steady and thoughtful in his work.
This matter is also reflected in emotional matters. While he was chatting with Jiang Huatong, he was doing two things at once and had already thought about what arrangements he would make in the next few days.
The Jiang Mansion has been destroyed, and the matter of marrying Jiang Huatong only requires her own consent.
For him, the difficulty lies in this matter.
After all, marriage has always been the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker.
Jiang Huatong now has no parents. It would be somewhat abrupt for Su Liancheng to approach her directly and propose to her.
In this matter, perhaps Tang Miaoxin needs help.
It's just that Su Letian and Ning Changping are getting married soon, so they have to get their marriage done first.
After Su Liancheng introduced the situation in Xiaocheng to Jiang Huatong, he asked her: "Which store is the thing Miaoxin wants to buy?"
Jiang Huatong mentioned the name of the shop, and Su Liancheng said: "The owner of this shop does a pretty good job and basically doesn't cheat people."
Jiang Huatong nodded slightly and also praised the store.
At this time, someone came over with a load, selling Luoba, a specialty of the First City.
Su Liancheng asked her: "I remember when you came to the First City last time, you said that the Luoba here is very delicious."
"You came all the way here today and you're hungry. Do you want to have a taste?"
Jiang Huatong nodded: "Okay."
Luoba is a glutinous rice product wrapped in leaves, often filled with honey-soaked red beans, which is sweet and delicious.
Su Liancheng asked the hawker to pick out some cakes, and the hawker happily agreed.
Jiang Huatong saw with sharp eyes a thick callus on the hawker's mouth.
People who can grow thick calluses in this position must be used to using swords.
She felt a little strange. Under normal circumstances, a small vendor selling glutinous rice cakes would not have cocoons in a place like this.
Jiang Huatong's eyes moved slightly and he took a closer look at the vendor's appearance.
The hawker's movements in picking up the cakes were a bit unfamiliar, as if he was not familiar with the cakes.
Jiang Huatong felt alarmed in his heart, something was wrong with this person.
She looked at the vendor carefully again, and he happened to lift his sleeves slightly, and she vaguely saw a flash of white light in his sleeves.
Jiang Huatong's eyes deepened.
The hawker had already packed the cake and handed it to Su Liancheng.
When Su Liancheng reached out to pick it up, the vendor suddenly pulled out a short knife from his sleeve and stabbed him hard.
This attack was so fast and violent that Su Liancheng was unprepared and could not dodge for a while.
When he saw that the knife was about to stab Su Liancheng, the hawker stood upright and fell down.
Su Liancheng was a little surprised. When he turned around, he saw Jiang Huatong holding the self-defense machine he had given her before.
The machine's muzzle was facing the hawker's chest, and the hidden weapon shot out by the machine went directly through the hawker's heart.
He couldn't even struggle, so he fell straight to the ground.
This incident happened in the blink of an eye, and before Su Liancheng could react, everything was over.
When Jiang Huatong saw Su Liancheng looking at her, she thought he felt something was wrong with this mechanism, so she whispered: "I have improved this mechanism before."
When Su Liancheng gave her the machine as a gift, the machine could fire dozens of needles at a time, which was very domineering.
This mechanism has saved her several times over the years.
But once when she was leading the rebel army to fight in Jiangdong, Ji Kuo accidentally fell to the ground and was stepped on by a horse several times, causing it to break.
She was very distressed and asked a craftsman to repair it.
The level of the craftsmen is not as good as that of the First City, so there is no way to repair it.
Jiang Huatong fiddled with it by himself for a long time, and finally asked the craftsmen to correct the damaged bore.
Now this machine can no longer shoot dozens of hidden weapons at once like before, but can shoot three at a time.
Just because the number of shots is smaller, the force of the concealed weapon shot is much greater than before.
The hawker just now was so close that the three hidden weapons not only shot through the hawker's heart, but also penetrated his back and were directly nailed into the wall next to him.
