Wei Wu used to call the original owner Haiyan, but he just couldn't change it just now. Besides, he was too happy to see an old friend. Moreover, he didn't notice that Yang Haiyan was wearing a woman's hairstyle now. When Yang Haiyan reminded him, he immediately changed his words and said, "Madam Qin. Madam Qin, what a coincidence. I didn't expect that I would come to the border and meet an old friend here again. I am now in the military camp. If you have any troubles and need my help in the future, you can come to the military camp to find me and tell me my name." He was a little considerate of Yang Haiyan, firstly because she was the maid of his deceased fiancée, and secondly because here, they were also old acquaintances.
Yang Haiyan knew from the original owner's memory that this person had a cheerful personality, elegant manners, and a noble demeanor. Hearing him say this, she followed suit and said, "Thank you, Mr. Wei. Mr. Wei, please take a seat. Aunt Hong, serve some snacks and make a pot of tea for Mr. Wei."
Aunt Hong: “Yes.”
Wei Wu was a little surprised: "You own this shop?"
Yang Haiyan did not hide it. Wei Wu would not leave here for one or two years in the army. Moreover, who in this town did not know that this shop was opened by her? She said, "Yes, after getting married, I opened a shop here. This is a simple life that I never thought of before."
Wei Wu was a son of an aristocratic family, and he was not familiar with worldly affairs, but he could see that Yang Haiyan was doing well. One way to tell whether a person was doing well was through clothing, but the most important thing was to see their mental state. Seeing that Yang Haiyan was in good spirits and had a rosy complexion, he knew that she was doing well. Moreover, she was able to open a shop here and had servants around her, so she must have married someone extraordinary. He asked curiously, "Who is the man you married?"
Yang Haiyan did not hide it: "It was Qin Fang, the captain of a thousand men under General Ao."
Wei Wu ate a piece of cake and almost choked himself: "Captain Qin?" It can't be such a coincidence, right? Captain Qin is his current boss. And I am now a soldier under Captain Qin.
Yang Haiyan saw that he seemed to know Qin Fang, so she couldn't help but be curious: "It seems that Master Wei knows my husband."
Wei Wu said, "It's fate that we met." However, such a weak girl was betrothed to the big man Qin Qianfuzhang. No matter how you look at it, they are not a good match. "Qin Qianfuzhang is very good at martial arts." This evaluation is very pertinent. We are a group of rich kids from the capital. We are arrogant and do not accept those who come from poor families. At the beginning of March, we just came here. Qin Fang was not there at that time. Han Zhen took over our team, so they formed a group to pick people, and they were all wiped out by Han Zhen.
Later, Qin Fang came... They thought Han Zhen was a pretty boy, not to be feared, but they couldn't beat him. Then they saw Qin Fang as a cold-faced devil, so they naturally didn't dare to challenge him. They were not fools. It was said that Qin Fang was a captain selected in the martial arts competition, and his kung fu was better than Han Zhen. They couldn't even beat Han Zhen, let alone Qin Fang. Wouldn't they just get beaten if they approached him
Therefore, the reason why Wei Wu said that Qin Fang was good at kung fu was not because he had experienced it, but because he drew the conclusion from Han Zhen.
Yang Haiyan looked at her guilty look and didn't say much. After a while, Wei Wu stood up and said, "Mrs. Qin, I hope you are well." The ex-fiancée was gone, and the only person related to her was the woman in front of him. Wei Wu hoped that she would be well, probably because of a kind of empathy. Of course, what he was transferring was not love, but guilt towards his ex-fiancée. After all...
Yang Haiyan said: "I will. The border is dangerous. Please take care of yourself, Master Wei."
Wei Wu smiled and left with the snacks he bought.
Watching him leave, Yang Haiyan sighed. In the original novel, Qin Fang did not return to his hometown. What would happen if the original owner met Wei Wu here
Nobody knows.
Wei Wu was in a good mood today. He did not expect to meet Yang Haiyan here.
Wei Wu's friend asked, "Who is this? He looks good."
Wei Wu rolled his eyes at the other party and said, "Don't think too much. She is a woman and she needs a reputation." As he said that, he sighed, "She used to be a maidservant of Zixu. After the Yang family was convicted, all the young maids were betrothed to soldiers. I didn't expect to meet her here. She was betrothed to Captain Qin." Zixu is Miss Yang's maiden name.
The people around Wei Wu all knew that the emperor had succeeded in his bid for the throne, and their families were more or less on the side of the emperor. Moreover, if the master committed a crime, the servants would not be punished. Qi State had this law, so they were not surprised that Yang Haiyan was betrothed to the border. What was surprising was that Yang Haiyan and Wei Wu actually had this relationship.
A young man said, "So she is Qin Yanluo's wife. At least we know each other. In the future, when we train, we can ask Qin Yanluo to be flexible for us."
Wei Wu: "Go away, don't cause trouble for others."
As they were talking, everyone returned to the barracks. They were on duty at night and had nothing to do during the day, so some were resting, and some were chatting after resting enough. Wei Wu knew that Yang Haiyan was promised to Qin Fang, so he asked the soldiers who were chatting about Yang Haiyan.
Wei Wu distributed the small cakes he bought to the soldiers, then sat with the group of people and said, "Everyone, eat. Don't be polite to me. I just bought them today. They are very fresh."
The soldiers were naturally embarrassed to take it. They didn't dare to eat the food of a young master from a noble family from the capital. However, after spending the past few days with him, they also knew that Wei Wu had a good personality. It was just that the status of the young master from a noble family was too high, so they didn't dare to get too close to him.
Seeing that they didn't make a move, Wei Wu divided the cake among them himself: "You're welcome. I went to the dim sum shop to buy this cake today and ran into the proprietress. I then learned that this was the shop opened by Qin Qianfu's wife."
Wei Wu had already handed the cakes to them, so the soldiers were no longer polite. If they were any more polite, they would be considered as being too arrogant and not giving Wei Wu face.
However, when Wei Wu mentioned Yang Haiyan, the soldiers started to talk: "Mrs. Qin is very kind to us. When Qin Qianfu was promoted, she sent us this snack. Last year, on Laba Festival, Mrs. Qin also sent us Laba porridge. There were many people, so she sent us two bowls each. We felt bad, so we picked up some firewood for Mrs. Qin and sent it to her. Guess what happened next?"
Wei Wu naturally didn't know: "What's the matter?" In fact, it was just that Wei Wu and other young masters of noble families arrived at the military camp a little late. If it was at the end of last year, Yang Haiyan would still be a topic of discussion among the soldiers, but this year, it was no longer new.
The soldier said, "This firewood can be sold in town. Mrs. Qin said that the firewood we picked up would be more expensive than Laba porridge, so she counted the firewood as money and made it into steamed buns as a New Year gift for us."
Soldier: "That's right. Our Mrs. Qin is very nice, better than the wives of the captains in other districts. Everyone envies us."
After hearing this, Wei Wu agreed very much: "She has always been kind-hearted." In the past, he often helped him to speak well of Miss Yang.
Of course, Wei Wu didn't know that the original owner's words were so sweet because she hoped that Wei Wu and Miss Yang would get married earlier, so that Miss Yang would marry no one else but him, and then she would have the opportunity to become a concubine.
The soldier continued, "Come to think of it, when Madam Qin first came, she showed some affection. You newcomers don't know this, but the people in our barracks are all envious of Mr. Qin."
Wei Wu: "Oh? What's going on? Tell me quickly."
The soldier started chattering: "That's right..." If this were modern times, this soldier would definitely be a fan of Yang Haiyan.
Qin Fang spent the past two days making wooden hairpins in his tent. He finally finished making them and was very satisfied. However, it was tiring to keep looking at the same thing, so he put the things away and decided to go out for a walk.
Wei Wu: "What do you think of Mr. Qin Qianfu's personality? I see he has a cold face, like the devil. Mrs. Qin must have felt wronged by marrying him, right?"
Soldier: "How do we know the relationship between this couple?"
Wei Wu: "I don't think Qin Qianfu is a caring person. And... why are you holding me?"
The soldier turned his eyes to the side. Wei Wu saw this and turned his head to see Qin Fang's face darken. Wei Wu was a little embarrassed. He was caught talking about someone behind his back. It was embarrassing. So he stood up: "Qin Qianfu..."
"Come here." Qin Fang interrupted him.
Wei Wu went over and asked: "Do you have any interest in seeing me?"
Qin Fang: "I heard that you newcomers were very dissatisfied with Han Zhen replacing the captain."
After hearing what he said, Wei Wu explained: "It was indeed the case at the beginning, but…"
"But I think your reluctance to accept is justified." Qin Fang interrupted him again, "So I need to prove my strength to you, otherwise you may also be resentful of me in your hearts."
Wei Wu: “?”
Qin Fang said to the soldiers on the side: "Go and call all the soldiers from District 18 to gather. Those who don't come after the count of 30 and can't give a reason will run 50 laps around the Yongzhou Canyon."
The soldier's legs went weak when he heard this. How could he survive if he ran around the Yongzhou Gorge fifty times? "Yes, go get help right away."
Before Qin Fang counted to thirty, more than a thousand people had arrived, including Han Zhen and ten other centurions who had also arrived after hearing the news.
Han Zhen: "Master Qin, why are we gathering together suddenly?"
Lu Baifu said: "Yes, what happened?"
Qin Fang said: "I have been wanting to gather together for a long time. Didn't some newcomers object to Han Zhen taking over as the captain? This is equivalent to objecting to me as the captain, so I decided to give them a chance. If they can beat me, I will treat them to meat every meal for the next month."
As soon as Qin Fang said this, a young master from an aristocratic family was the first to speak: "Is what Lord Qin said true? If we defeat you, you will treat us to meat for a month?"
