After hearing Jiang You's words, Qi Xiu smiled and said, "Young girl is really beautiful and kind. Any girl with the same name can give such a beautiful explanation. Thank you very much, girl."
Jiangyou smiled lightly.
Qi Xiu looked at Jiang You a few more times and felt a little embarrassed. He lowered his head and said, "Then... I'll go to the government first and deliver this confession."
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Qi." Jiang You nodded slightly and watched Qi Xiu leave.
After Qi Xiu left, Jiang You withdrew her gaze, and when she turned around, the expression on her face gradually hardened.
Too many coincidences always make people feel a little uneasy.
She was inexplicably taken away by Huan Xing, went to Youruo Lake, and entered some Youyan underground palace. When she came out, she was dropped by the snow sculpture near Cailian Village. After entering Cailian Village
, and happened to meet Qi Xiu, whose appearance was almost the same as Murong Xiu's. She would not believe it if he said that there was no relationship between them.
But if there was any connection, she couldn't tell.
Although Qi Xiu and Murong Xiu look exactly the same, their conversation and behavior are completely different.
Let’s find some time to try it out again.
Jiang You made up her mind and was not in a hurry to leave Cailian Village.
After Wang Wu and Lin Liu were sent to the government, Wang Wuniang came to Cai Lian and made trouble several times, but Jiang You gave her a good deal of treatment and scared her away. As for Lin Liu, he was alone and no one cared about him.
, naturally no one will come forward to make trouble for him.
The village chief finally came forward and directly told Wang Wuniang the stakes, so Wang Wuniang never dared to provoke Cai Lian again.
Jiang You followed the lotus picker to the lotus pond, picking lotus roots and walking back and forth in the withered lotus pond. Of course, she did not go to the lotus pond to pick lotus roots. This lotus root picking is a technical job that most people really can't do.
. But she is very good at picking lotus. She felt the lotus root in the lotus pond and pulled it out, and she could basically pull it out accurately.
"You are really amazing." Jiang You said with a smile, "If there were lotus pods, I would be reluctant to pick them. Touching the lotus roots... is really not easy."
The lotus picker put the lotus roots he picked out from the mud into the basket, smiled and said to Jiang You: "Then you don't know, I am actually from Jiangnan, and I grew up with lotus flowers. When I met my husband, it was also very special.
What a coincidence. Anyway, I followed him to his hometown, and I didn’t expect that he also made a living from lotus roots."
Cai Lian smiled and talked about the past between herself and her husband.
Her husband met her when he went to work in Jiangnan, and they knew each other, so Cailian followed her husband to Cailian Village in Youzhou.
Cailian grew up by the water since she was a child, so she was very accustomed to it after coming to Cailian Village. When Cailian first came to Cailian Village with her husband, the two of them did not hold a wedding. They only registered it with the government.
There was no wedding. But the relationship between the couple was getting better and better, and their life was becoming more and more prosperous. They finally saved enough money to hold the wedding. A few days later, the husband was arrested and enlisted in the army.
Jiang You could only sympathize with Cai Lian's tragic fate. Of course, she also hoped that the war could end soon.
After picking a basket of lotus roots, Jiang You accompanied her to the river to clean them.
The lotus picker said to her: "On weekdays, the lotus roots I pick will be sold to Ge Qigong in the village, and he will sell them in the city."
Jiang You only said: "You sell it to him, and he sells it in the city, so the price here shouldn't be too high."
"We can only maintain a basic livelihood!" Cai Lian pursed her lips and said, "Maybe this is not bad, we don't have a car, and it is unrealistic to go to the city to sell by ourselves. That's it, I hope the war will end soon. In this case
, my husband can go home early."
Jiang You looked at Cai Lian's longing eyes, feeling slightly sour in her heart but unable to say anything else.
She doesn't want to be pessimistic, but if there is a war, there will be sacrifices.
When two armies fight, casualties are inevitable.
"Do you want to go to the city for a walk? I will take you into the city." Cai Lian said to Jiang You again, "However, you said before that you came to find your fiancé. He is from Youzhou, right? Now that there is war, you
Finding him... I'm afraid it won't be easy."
"Youzhou..." Jiang You pursed her lips slightly and said nothing.
Cai Lian thought Jiang You was a little embarrassed and said: "You know, before the war, Suizhou and Youzhou were close to each other, and trade was very frequent. You came to Youzhou specifically to see you.
My fiancé, I think he is from Youzhou, otherwise, why would you come here? But now... in Youzhou City, who can escape if they can be captured to fight? We, the female generation, can only hope.
Now that the war is over, I hope they can return safely."
Jiang You looked at Cai Lian and could only sigh in her heart. She couldn't explain too much to Cai Lian. However, she still went to Youzhou City with Cai Lian.
Cailian Village is still quite far away from Youzhou City. It took them more than an hour to get to Youzhou City by taking the ox cart in the village. Due to the war recently, the city has been under martial law, but it is still very friendly to people from Youzhou.
Cai Lian handed over her identity card, and the guard at the city gate let her go.
After Cai Lian and Jiang You entered the city, Cai Lian said to Jiang You: "In the past, when my husband-in-law didn't go to join the army, I often followed him to the city. Youzhou City is still very tolerant of outsiders and treats us common people.
It is also very friendly. Moreover, although Youzhou City is not big, the territory of Youzhou is still very large. Today, the city is still peaceful, and the border defense outside the outer city still plays a big role. In fact, Tianyu's military strength is strong,
Tianji may not be an opponent."
"Mrs. He is also very concerned about national affairs!" Jiang You smiled unconsciously after listening to Cai Lian's words.
Cai Lian is from Jiangnan, and she is also from Tianji. She can follow her husband to live in Tianyu, which shows that she has true love for her husband.
Cai Lian smiled and said: "My husband-in-law told me a lot. He is well-informed and will also talk to me about national affairs."
"Really?" Jiang You was quite surprised, "Then you say that Tianji may not be his opponent, are you so sure?"
Cai Lian shook her head and said: "Of course I'm not so sure, but my husband-in-law told me about this. He said that Tianji has always been the leader of the five countries because of its peaceful country and people's peace. However, over the years, Tianji has lost much strength.
Except for the Prince of Zhenbei, there is no one among the younger generation who can command an army. However, even if the Prince of Zhenbei comes to the border, it will not go smoothly. He only needs to stand up
If you show military merit, the people in Tianji Imperial City will feel panic, and they will not let Prince Zhenbei win this battle safely..."
