The sound of reading in the room suddenly stopped. The small figure stood up and hurriedly opened the door. A smiling face poked out, "Brother Yun, are you back?"

Seeing Rou Niang's face that had lost a lot of weight, as her mother had said, with an obvious tinge on her face, Yun Zhao couldn't help but feel distressed. As he walked into the house, he asked, "Is there no food at home?"

Rou Niang closed the door and whispered: "I still have food, but I have to plan for this winter and save some!"

"Don't worry about it. I've brought back a lot of game this time. I'll bring you some tomorrow. I'm back and I definitely won't let you go hungry."

Rou Niang blushed and lowered her head, "Dad, Brother Yun is here and he brought something!"

"Well!" Mr. Qin stroked his goatee and sat at the table with a majestic expression, watching Yun Zhao come over, "Brother Yun is back and he brought these things. Ah, there is actually no shortage of them at home, but

Bring it as soon as you bring it, sit down, sit down, you've been gone for more than half a month, I'm afraid you've forgotten all the articles you learned a few days ago, come here, come here, I'll test you!"

"Dad!" Yun Niang said angrily while tidying up the sewing basket on the table: "Brother Yun just came back today and hunted so many wild animals. How tiring it is. You'd better not torment him."

"How can this be torturing him? The sage has a saying, if you hear the Tao in the morning, you will die in the evening. If you don't study, how can you know things? If you don't study, how can you be sensible, you can't..."

Yun Zhao knew that if Mr. Qin started talking, he would talk endlessly, so he quickly put the wine bottle in his hand on the table, "Sir, I brought you some wine!"

"Ah, there is wine!" Mr. Qin's eyes immediately narrowed, and he immediately forgot what he was about to say, and his eyes narrowed with laughter, "Okay, okay, you are indeed my student, remember I love

Have a few cups, Rou Niang, go quickly and cut a plate of meat that Yun Zhao brought. Cut it into thin shreds. Add some dried beans and fry them together. I want a drink. Yun Zhao, come and accompany me.

I’ll drink together!”

Rou Niang pouted, "With wine, I don't care about anything, and I don't even ask Brother Yun if he encountered any danger during this trip? It's true."

Mr. Qin shook his head repeatedly, "Girls are outgoing, girls are outgoing. I haven't promised you to Brother Yun yet, but you are just helping him like this. If you get married in the future, will you still recognize me as your father?"

"Dad, what are you talking about?" Rou Niang suddenly blushed, glared at him fiercely, turned around and ran to the kitchen. "You haven't even drank yet, and you're already drunk!"

Although everyone was tacitly aware of the matter between him and Rou Niang, after all, there was no formal proposal for marriage yet. Yun Zhao was also a little embarrassed. "Sir, I will read a book while I go to the kitchen to help." He followed Rou Niang into the kitchen.

Looking at Yun Zhao's back, Mr. Qin nodded happily. This was the child he had watched grow up. His character was beyond description, he was bold, righteous, and smart. Although he spent very little time studying with him, he was still a little bit...

That is to say, it is a pity that if it were not for the family's livelihood problems and he concentrated on studying, there would be no problem for Yun Zhao to strive for fame. Although it is a bit regretful, Yun Zhao is now well-known in Fangyuan Baili, at least for Rou

When his mother follows him, no one dares to bully her. He can rest assured that his daughter has such a home.

Pick up the book and start chanting again.

Rou Niang took off a piece of wolf meat and started cutting it on the felt board, while Yun Zhao walked to the door of the stove and quickly lit the fire. He was wearing thin clothes, and after a while, he had goosebumps all over his body.

The fire was burning in the stove door, and he stretched out his hand to heat it. Waves of warmth came through, and Yun Zhao couldn't help but groan in comfort.

Glancing at Yun Zhao's look, Rou Niang said with a smile: "It's such a cold weather, and wearing so little clothes shows that you are strong. Be careful of getting cold, so don't expect me to serve you."

Yun Zhao chuckled, "This means I am sick and asked you to take care of me. You also know that my mother is not in good health."

Rou Niang spat, "I don't have to be careful about what I say, but I'm really sick. I need to spit out a few mouthfuls to get rid of all these unlucky words!"

Bah, bah, bah! Yun Zhao spat several times, "Okay!" he said with a smile.

"Why are you wearing so little?" Yun Niang asked again.

"It's not that I want to wear less clothes!" Yun Zhao sighed, "I only have a set of cotton-padded clothes. This time I fought with the wild wolves and they were all torn into pieces. I left them at home for my mother to mend, so I can only wear single clothes when I go out.

Already."

Rou Niang's beauty turned pale, "How can you fight with a wild wolf? Your archery skills are so good, how can a wild wolf get close to you?"

Yun Zhao pursed his lips, "I had bad luck on this trip. I almost didn't come back. I ran into a pack of wild wolves." He immediately told Rou Niang about the thrilling situation that day. In front of the one he loved, he was naturally

You need to describe yourself as more wise and powerful.

However, Rou Niang heard the tragic change in her face, her hand trembled, and she let out an ouch, but the blade cut her finger, and blood seeped out. Yun Zhao jumped up and said, "Oh, you are so careless, what do you have to worry about?"

Yes, didn’t I just stay in front of you? Well, now, my finger is also cut!”

He stretched out his hand to pinch the wound tightly for Rou Niang, "Don't move. I'll pinch it harder to avoid bleeding again. Your bones can't bear it."

Rou Niang raised her head, looked at Yun Zhao, who was more than half her head taller, and whispered: "Brother Yun, promise me not to go to such a dangerous place again in the future, okay? If you have three advantages and two disadvantages, what will your mother do?

Yes, what should I do?"

Seeing Rou Niang's big eyes filled with tears, which might burst out at any time, Yun Zhao couldn't help feeling very distressed, and stretched out his hands to take Rou Niang into his arms and cherish her properly.

Yun Zhao held her left hand, and Rou Niang quickly supported Yun Zhao's chest with her right hand, mouthing towards the outer room, "No, dad is here!"

Yun Zhao smiled lowly, "I'm going to tell the old man that I have hugged you and even kissed you!"

Rou Niang was so embarrassed that she hit Yun Zhao hard on the chest with her right hand, "If you keep talking, I will ignore you. You are bullying me!"

Yun Zhao pulled Rou Niang into his arms with all his strength. His strength could not be resisted by Rou Niang. He was suddenly held in Yun Zhao's arms. He could not move. He struggled for a while and smelled Yun Zhao's smell.

The unique smell on his body made his whole body feel weak. He pressed his hot cheek against Yun Zhao's chest and listened to the strong thumping of his heartbeat, which made him feel that it was beating very fast.

"See no evil, speak no evil..." Mr. Qin's melodious groan suddenly came from outside. Rou Niang suddenly woke up and pushed Yun Zhao away hard, "It's all you..."

Yun Zhao stuck out his tongue. Are Mr. Qin's ears so sharp?

Soon, a plate of fragrant fried wolf meat was brought to the table. Mr. Qin poured a glass of wine and looked at Yun Zhao, "Let's have a drink together?"

Yun Zhao smiled and said: "Sir, you know that I don't drink much."

Mr. Qin nodded, took a sip to himself, and said, "I heard you and Rou Niang say before that you met the horse bandits from Yingzui Rock? Did they save you?"

Yun Zhao nodded, "Yes, it's thanks to them this time, otherwise I wouldn't be able to come back."

Mr. Qin took a sip of wine and said, "Brother Yun, we are no longer outsiders. I have to tell you something, so you have to pay attention!"

"Sir, please speak."

"You told Rou Niang earlier that that matchmaker wanted to recruit you, but you refused. It's a good job. Although we are poor, we have a clean net worth. We must never do this kind of thing like going up to the mountains to become bandits.

of."

Rou Niang interjected: "Dad, I don't think these people are bad people. Although they charge us one tael of silver in protection fees every year, it does make the Mongolian people dare not harass us. Compared with the officers and soldiers in the border towns,

Much better, they only know how to hide in the city and not care about the life and death of us ordinary people."

Mr. Qin slammed the wine glass on the table and said, "You are a woman, what do you know? Yun Zhao, you are a grown man, so you have to be careful. You have outstanding kung fu. If they want to recruit you, they will use some..."

If I come to win you over with a small favor, I might even think of some heretical ideas in the future, but you must not taint the family."

"Yes!" Yun Zhao said respectfully: "I remember everything my husband told me before! I will not go to Yingzui Rock to join the gang."

"That's good!" Mr. Qin said happily: "What did your mother say about you and Rou Niang?"

Yun Zhao glanced at Rou Niang, who was picking up the soles of her shoes, and said, "My mother said that when spring comes, she will ask a matchmaker to come and ask for your hand in marriage!"

"Okay, okay, okay!" Mr. Qin laughed, "When spring begins, we will settle your affairs first, and then find an auspicious day for you to get married."

"Thank you, sir!" Yun Zhao was overjoyed, while Rou Niang's ears turned red and her head hung lower.

"After you get married, you will join the army!" Mr. Qin said: "With your skills, it will be easy to gain fame in the army. Don't worry about your mother. After you get married, your mother will naturally be taken care of by Rou Niang. Besides,

Now, isn’t it me?”

"Dad, what's the use of the officers and soldiers in the border city? They just huddle in the city. I don't want Brother Yun to go there and join the army!" Rou Niang said dissatisfied.

Mr. Qin said dissatisfiedly: "Don't talk nonsense. The pure will be pure from themselves, and the dirty will be dirty from themselves. Are the 10,000 officers and soldiers in the border town so unworthy? As far as I know, the border town general Feng Congyi, the old general, is a tough man.

.Rou Niang, let me tell you, Yun Zhao is now being targeted by the group of people from Yingzuiyan. In order to achieve their goals, these horse bandits will do anything, so they must give up their determination."

After chatting for a while, Yun Zhao stood up and left. Rou Niang walked to the door and stuffed what she was holding into Yun Zhao's hand, "Here you go, I've been working on it for more than a month!"

When Yun Zhao looked at it, he saw that it was a pair of cloth shoes. Looking at the densely packed and neat stitches on the soles, he knew that Rou Niang had put great care into making them.

Putting the shoes in his arms, "I'm leaving!"

"Um!"

Yun Zhao took a step back, "I'm leaving!"

Rou Niang blushed and glared at him, "Just leave, what are you doing!" She turned around and entered the door, slamming it shut. Outside the door, Yun Zhao laughed and strode away.
