Around the time of Xu, the monkey returned home. Before he could eat, Yang Ying pulled him into the house and told him the news he had just heard.
The monkey was startled and said, "Did someone recognize you?"
Yang Ying shook his head and said: "I'm not sure either. That kid Lin'er doesn't make people worry in school. Hou Baisi, what do you think I should do?" His eyes were sad.
The monkey pondered for a while and said: "Don't panic, as long as we are in Jiangdu City, no one can do anything to you mother and son! Now we must find out the source of the news as soon as possible. I will go find Geng Si tomorrow. He is now responsible for the security of the city." Yang Ying's face turned pale and he said: "I'm not afraid of others. I'm just afraid that the manager and the leader of the village will guess the identity of my mother and son after hearing the news."
The monkey was silent for a while and said: "Otherwise, tell the manager your identity and I will go with you!"
Yang Ying looked at the monkey quietly for a while, and then said slowly: "If he establishes Lin'er as a puppet emperor and uses my mother and son to expand his power, what will you do?"
"Do you think the general manager is such a person?" Monkey raised his head and said proudly: "With the general manager's ability, he can lead us to conquer the world without this method!"
Yang Ying clenched his fingers and said, "Then if he wants to drive us away, what will you do?"
The monkey hesitated for a long time this time. Xuan'er took a deep breath and said: "If it really can't be persuaded, then I will go with you!"
Yang Ying felt relieved, showed a smile, and said: "Okay, let's go to the manager to confess!"
The two arrived at Oriole Garden and were taken to the study after reporting. Zhang Yangquan and Qin Lingjun were both waiting in the study.
Yang Ying did not mince words. After reciting the etiquette, he explained his identity and the experience of entering the village one by one.
After finishing speaking, he straightened his body and said: "Although I am seeking self-protection, after all, I have been lying to the village. No matter how the general manager and the chief of the village deal with me, I have no complaints!"
The monkey knelt down on the ground and begged: "General manager, the master of the village, my wife has never done anything to disgrace the village since she entered the village. Please watch carefully!"
Qin Lingjun sat on the corner of the table with her arms folded, and after looking at Zhang Yangquan, she said calmly: "Originally, you are indeed guilty, but since you are here, this matter is over."
Yang Ying was stunned for a moment and murmured: "It's passed?"
Zhang Yangquan rested his elbows on the desk, crossed his hands, and said with a smile: "Actually, since Commander Li's identity was leaked, he told us your identity."
Yang Ying was shocked and said: "The news in the city..."
Qin Lingjun said: "We spread the news. Before, we were focused on attacking Jiangdu and had no time to deal with your affairs. Now that Jiangdu has been decided, we deliberately released the news to test your reaction."
Yang Ying smiled bitterly and said: "That's it."
Zhang Yangquan said seriously: "Yang Xing, we are not the Red Scarf Army, and we do not intend to use the Red Scarf Army banner, so in my eyes, you and Han Lin'er are just ordinary villagers."
Yang Ying's eyes drooped, her heart was full of mixed emotions, and she didn't know whether to be happy or disappointed.
Zhang Yangquan continued: "But we don't know what you think. We don't know if you regard Longtan Village as a refuge or if you really want to stay."
Yang Ying said quietly: "So you are using this method to test my true heart?"
Qin Lingjun raised his eyelids and said: "The fact that you are here shows that you are still somewhat loyal to the village. You can continue to stay here as long as you want."
The monkey said ecstatically: "Thank you so much, Master of Dazhai!"
Yang Ying was silent for a long time and said: "Then what if I want to take Lin'er away in the future?"
Zhang Yangquan raised his eyebrows and said: "I said, in our eyes, you are an ordinary villager. If you want to seek development on your own, we will never force you to stay."
Yang Ying took a deep breath and said: "I understand." He knelt down and said sincerely: "My mother and son hope to continue to stay in Jiangdu City as ordinary villagers, and hope that the general manager and the village master can protect Lin'er's safety!" Qin Lingjun said: "Since he is a villager, we will keep him safe. But you must also be careful not to let him leave Jiangdu City!"
Yang Ying agreed and thanked him repeatedly.
Qin Lingjun turned her eyes and said: "The person you really should thank is Monkey. You two are still a fake couple. Are you going to continue like this?"
The monkey was overjoyed and his heart was beating fast.
Yang Ying glanced at the monkey and said softly: "Hou Baisi has indeed helped me a lot. Logically speaking, I should marry him. But if the Jiangbei Bailian cultivators find out that Mrs. Mingwang has remarried, I will certainly suffer, and so will he.
Implicated."
The monkey said anxiously: "I'm not afraid of being implicated!"
Qin Lingjun glanced at the two people's faces and said, "In that case, you can discuss and decide on your own, and we will not interfere."
Zhang Yangquan smiled at the monkey and said: "Monkey, work harder."
The monkey was overjoyed and agreed, while Yang Ying's face turned red. They both bowed and left.
Around the time of Xu, Qin Lingsi returned to Oriole Garden.
After the First World War in Jiangdu, the number of horses in Longtan Village exceeded 5,000. After Jiangdu was captured, she bought all the horses from all the merchants in Jiangdu City and obtained more than 2,000 horses.
It's June now, and the horse's estrus will weaken in another month.
So these days, she stays at Jidangshan Racecourse every day, taking good care of these more than 7,000 horses, hoping to get more mares pregnant.
After returning home, she rushed into Qin Lingjun's house and said with joy on her face: "Sister, I have more than fifty horses today..."
I didn't know what to say, and I was suddenly stunned.
On the bed in the house, Qin Lingjun was sitting with her legs together. Zhang Yangquan was lying on her lap and was letting Qin Lingjun pick out his ears.
The ear-picking spoon was seized from Boluo Buhua Mansion and made into a fish shape with a jade pendant. After Zhang Yangquan got this thing, he often asked Qin Lingjun to pick out his ears.
On the night when Jiangdu was captured, the two of them had already made a lifelong commitment and planned to get married at the end of the year.
Qin Lingjun is a traditional woman. From then on, she regarded herself as Zhang Yangquan's woman. Except for the last step, she obeyed all his requests.
After the two of them were knocked out by Qin Lingsi, their faces turned red. Zhang Yangquan hurriedly sat up, coughed and said, "My little sister is back."
Although Qin Lingsi is young, she is very liberal when it comes to men and women. She leaned over and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, it turns out that I like this style. Do you want my little sister to serve you like this someday?"
Qin Lingjun was ashamed and annoyed, and said: "You are talking crazy again. What happened to you just saying there were more than fifty horses?"
Qin Lingsi quietly retreated to the door, glanced at the two of them, and said with a smile: "There are more than fifty horses in heat like you!"
Qin Lingjun stood up suddenly and rushed towards the girl: "I have to sew your mouth shut today!"
Qin Lingsi smiled sweetly, turned around and ran away.
When Zhang Yangquan got up early the next morning, the Qin sisters had already gone to the military camp and racecourse.
Breakfast was made by Sister-in-law Xie, mutton porridge and meat buns, which were very delicious.
There are more than twenty village households like Sister Xie's family in the mansion. They are all old village households and insisted on following Qin Lingjun and Zhang Yangquan. Since the mansion also needed someone to take care of it, Zhang Yangquan kept them.
After breakfast, Zhang Yangquan got into the carriage and headed towards the Ordnance Bureau.
