The fight against Qiufeng was solved very neatly by Guo Linchong, and just one confrontation made Xisu break the idea of coming back. That day, he and Min Qiu negotiated something, that is, he took his salary, bought some food, and pretended to be kidnapped by Xisu. One is to prevent Xisu from returning without success and making trouble, and the other is to cater to Xue Changfeng's previous practice, leaving them a little leeway.
Xue Ziqin was too lazy to care about these trivial matters. He often discussed court affairs with Zhou Xiao, or went out hunting. Xue Ziqin was very attentive about hunting. He had hunted deer, deer, white fox, and red fox... Anyway, in the end, all but the fur got into his mouth.
This year, the winter on the border came very early, and it started to snow in November. Xue Ziqin was particularly afraid of the cold. Since then, he has not been out of the general's tent except for hunting. The heavy snow in winter blocked the road between Xisu and Xuanguo, and everyone spent the winter safely.
The most uncomfortable one was Min Qiu.
Because Xue Ziqin was afraid of the cold, he threw all the furs he had hunted to Min Qiu, and ordered Min Qiu to make him a big cloak before the cold winter came. Min Qiu once sewed a cloak for Xue Ziqin with a needle and thread in his tent, and happened to be seen by Wei Lin, who was busy with his work. He didn't know what Wei Lin said to others. Many people started calling Min Qiu Min Qiu. Mother.
With the heavy snowfall from time to time for the first half of the day, the New Year is approaching.
At the beginning of the twelfth month, Xue Ziqin's three-color mix-and-match cloak was ready. Xue Ziqin wore the new cloak and huddled beside the fire in the general's tent. He smiled and said to Min Qiu again, "It's almost the Chinese New Year, you arrange for someone to buy something and come back. , we are also very lively."
"What to buy?" Min Qiu asked.
"Think about it yourself." Xue Ziqin said, "Be careful when you go out, don't let the air leak in." After he said that, he rubbed his hands together and sighed, looking too cold. In November, soldiers were given a lot of animal furs to protect against the cold in the military camp, and they didn't feel too cold after staying for a while. But Xue Ziqin obviously grew up here in Qianyu, but he was more afraid of the cold than others.
This old woman, Min Qiu, ordered him to recognize it himself, but instead of refuting it, he obediently left the tent.
Occasionally, Min Qiu would go back to his account and write a note on what he wanted to buy. He originally planned to let his subordinates buy it, but when he thought about it, Guo Linchong had not repaid the favor he owed him, so he went to the second division again. Go to Guo Linchong.
"Oh, Min Qiu, what's the wind blowing you?" Guo Linchong was supervising the training of his subordinates at the training ground. When he saw Min Qiu approaching from afar, he hurriedly greeted him. In this cold winter and twelfth lunar month, everyone was dressed very thickly, and they looked a lot taller. When the two met, Min Qiu was still reserved, so he nodded, but Guo Linchong laughed happily.
"North wind, it's getting colder day by day." Min Qiu said while shrinking his neck. There were no shelters on the training ground, and the north wind was blowing into the placket, it was really cold.
"Tell me, what's the matter? The general is looking for me?" Guo Linchong put his hands in front of him and tucked them into his sleeves, looking like an old farmer, "Then you can just ask someone to let me know. Came here specially."
"No, you owed me the favor last time, you still haven't paid it back?"
Guo Lin pretended to be stupid and asked in astonishment, "What kind of favor?"
"Okay, okay, it's too exaggerated, Xisu that thing."
"Tell me, why pay it back?" Guo Linchong asked with a smile, accepting his exaggerated expression.
"The general asked me to buy some New Year's goods. You can arrange for someone to go."
"Isn't it the same for everyone?"
Min Qiu paused, lowered his voice and said, "That's not it, if you go in person, can you... go to the kiln?"
As soon as those words came out, Guo Linchong's eyes lit up, and he took out his hand from his sleeve and patted Min Qiu's arm happily: "Brother, that's interesting!"
"Actually, I want you to bring me something by the way."
"What to bring, let's talk about it."
"Shanglianshuimen, buy me some three meat buns."
"I still go to Lianshuimen, it's not just about going to Qianyu."
Min Qiu said sternly: "Then I won't help you next time."
"Okay, okay, I'll pick a few people to go." Last time, it was indeed Min Qiu's help that made it so smooth, especially since Min Qiu also paid. Just go for a run.
Hearing that, Min Qiu quickly handed the note to Guo Linchong: "Well, just these things, you pay the money, come back and report the bill."
"Okay, okay, okay." Guo Linchong took the note and didn't look at it, and tucked it into his clothes.
Seeing that he was done, Min Qiu turned around and planned to leave: "I'll go back first."
"Row."
He walked out for a few steps, then turned around and said to Guo Linchong, as if remembering something, "Remember to bring some more people."
"I know, I know, it's not the first time I go shopping."
"Also," Min Qiu hesitated for a moment, and then added, "I asked Qian Yu for the food money last time, and it helped him solve some troubles anyway. He was very generous and gave it all. You I will not refund the hard work."
After Min Qiu finished speaking, he quickly left.
Guo Linchong felt that he had been put together, and felt that there was something wrong, so he took out the note and read it - Min Qiu wrote densely, not to mention two cars.
"My heart is really dirty!" Guo Linchong scolded.
As a result, Guo Linchong personally took four people to Lianshuimen, and it happened that Wei Lin and his team were selected. The captain of Wei Lin's team died, and Guo Linchong didn't think too much about it, so he arranged for Wei Lin to be the captain. The one with the few remaining, for a while
There was no single one from the other teams, so it was empty.
Wei Lin also spoke for Jiang, and talked about Jiang Mun, meaning that he would take Jiang Mun with him, okay, Jiang Mun would send him away. Guo Linchong was not an unreasonable person. After listening to the cause and effect, he felt as if he had caught Zhou Xiao's decision to make his own decisions. shape.
Wei Lin didn't understand Guo Linchong as well as Min Qiu. Seeing him embarrassed, he immediately added: "Second young master of the Jiang family, I can ask Jiang Ye to pay you more for your hard work when you return to Xiangcheng in the future."
Guo Linchong nodded: "Everyone is a brother, I will help if I can help."
That righteous and awe-inspiring look, Wei Lin felt that it was fake, and he slandered a few words in his heart, but thanked him with a smile.
According to Guo Linchong's intention, he would go there that night and come back overnight. As for what the purpose of the night was, everyone was familiar with Guo Linchong's little hobby, so no one could expose it. Jiang also went to the first division to pick up Jiang Min, but Jiang Min was not willing to leave.
"Didn't you say it's not good here?" Jiang Minlai lay on the ground and didn't want to go. Jiang Minlai stretched out his hand to drag him. Seeing Jiang Ye's strenuous appearance, Wei Lin spoke up.
Jiang Min replied, "But Luo Yansheng and I are good brothers. How can we leave good brothers behind, or else, brother, let Luo Yansheng go with me!" He said to Jiang Ye in the second half of the sentence.
Jiang Ye's face was ashen, and he looked at Luo Yansheng who was huddled next to him, and then scolded: "You really don't know how high the sky is, you bastard, you have to leave today, or you have to leave if you don't!"
Jiang Min saw that Jiang was also angry, and he looked like he was going to hit him. From the moment of cheating, he acted like a spoiled child, and burst into tears: "Brother—"
Jiang Ye's thigh was held tightly by Jiang Min, Wei Lin, who had never seen such momentum, couldn't help laughing beside him.
Jiang also gave Wei Lin a stern look, ignoring that Jiang Min was still acting like a spoiled child, he directly dragged Jiang Min from the ground, and then actually carried it on his shoulders.
"Hold, carry it..." Wei Lin opened his mouth in surprise.
Jiang Min was young and stature. He was directly held by Jiang Ye on his shoulders, struggling frantically, but Jiang Ye ignored him completely and went outside.
Jiang Min looked at Luo Yansheng with tears in his eyes, knowing that he would be sent home today, and his words were full of grief, and he said to Luo Yansheng, "Woo woo woo, goodbye!"
Luo Yansheng watched this scene with hesitant words. Zhong Yi was dozing off beside him, and was woken up by the noise here. He opened his eyes to see what these people wanted to do.
Jiang also carried Jiang Min and went out without looking back.
Wei Lin nodded towards Zhong Yi and followed him out.
Lianshuimen was much warmer than their barracks, but it wasn't much better, especially at night, when the wind blew, people shivered.
A few people found an inn that looked very dilapidated and planned to spend the night and go shopping tomorrow. Who knew that Guo Linchong left the inn before his butt was hot on the bench, and said solemnly: "I'll go Do something, I will come to see you tomorrow morning."
Wei Lin and the four of them said at the same time, "Oh—"
Only Jiang Mun didn't know why, looking at the strange tacit understanding of the four people in front of him, he was very confused: "Huh? Huh?"
Guo Linchong didn't bother to pay attention to them and left without answering.
Leaving the five of them wondering what to do.
It is also rare to spend the night in an inn, not a military camp. It was only now that Jiang Ye understood why Guo Linchong only opened one room with six people. He dared to go to sleep with Sister Yao and let the five of them squeeze into this broken room.
"It's really not human." Wei Lin sighed.
Jiang also nodded, these five people squeezed into one room, only one couch, and they didn't know how to sleep. He looked back at the bed, barely able to sleep three people, no matter how much more, he would definitely fall asleep on the ground.
Of course, Jia Da could see that he couldn't sleep, and immediately stated: "I'll sleep on the floor, my health is fine."
Zhao Zhinan also followed: "Yes, and me, the three of you squeeze together?"
"How could that happen? It's too cold to sleep on the ground today." Wei Lin refused.
"Either I sleep on the bed, you all sleep on the ground, squeeze it and you will be warm." Jiang Min said.
Hearing this, Jiang also put his index finger on Jiang Min's head: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Jiang Min was in pain, and shrank his neck all of a sudden, and quickly ran behind Wei Lin to hide, Chao Jiang also made a face. Jiang also sometimes really doubted whether Jiang Min was Wei Lin's twin brother. The two were childishly alike. If it wasn't for Jiang Min's face that looked like his own, he would not really think that this was his younger brother.
Wei Lin thought for a while and said, "Either we take turns sleeping, the three of you sleep first, and then Jiang and I also sleep."
"That's okay, it's better than being cold all the time." Jiang also said, "It's rare that you can come up with such a reliable idea."
"Yes, I am your broad shoulders."
"… "
Zhao Zhinan and Jia Da looked at each other, and then Zhao Zhinan nodded: "Okay, then you are sleepy and wake us up."
Wei Lin laughed. It was a very weird smile, Jiang was also very familiar with it, it was this smile every time Wei Lin wanted to do something bad. He said, "Let's go out for a walk?"
"I also can."
"Take me, take me!" Jiang Min shouted.
"no!"
This stern rejection was not made by Jiang Ye alone, but also by Wei Lin. The two of them refused at the same time, and Jiang Min was instantly discouraged.
