that brother is mine

Naturally, the Liu family and the Ye family don't have to worry about recruiting soldiers. Their small life is still as usual. The Liu family is a landlord's family, and 50 taels is naturally enough, and Liu Meng is the boss of Jinxiufang, and 50 taels is a decimal. So they don't worry at all, and they don't have to be soldiers.

Ye Jin is not worried about Liu Meng at all, what he is worried about is Brother Tian and Niu Tiezhu. After all, Brother Tian has only been married to Niu Tiezhu for a short time. If Niu Tiezhu goes to serve in the army, what will the new husband of Brother Tian do? ah.

Thinking of Tian Ge'er and Niu Tiezhu helping him so much before, he naturally wanted to help them too.

Seeing Liu Meng passing by, Ye Jin immediately stopped him, "Liu Meng, I have something to discuss with you."

Liu Meng stopped. He looked at Ye Jin, waiting for Ye Jin's next words.

"Liu Meng, you also know that Brother Tian has not been married to Niu Tiezhu for a long time. If Niu Tiezhu goes to serve in the army, then Brother Tian..."

Liu Meng also guessed that Ye Jin wanted to talk to him about Tian Ge'er's family, but it was one thing to think about it, but another thing to hear it. He felt very uncomfortable when Ye Jin mentioned Niu Tiezhu.

Not wanting to hear Ye Jin continue, Liu Meng hurriedly said: "Brother Jin, you want to lend money to Brother Tian, ​​right?"

Nodding fiercely, Ye Jin was a little excited, he didn't expect Liu Meng to be the same as he thought.

Seeing Ye Jin getting more excited, Liu Meng felt even more uneasy, with a sour feeling, which made him wish to imprison Ye Jin in the room, so that Ye Jin could only think about him and see him alone. people.

Staring at Ye Jin closely, Liu Meng approached step by step, and he didn't stop until Ye Jin was forced to the wall, leaving Ye Jin with nowhere to retreat.

Seeing Ye Jin tremble, and then glaring at him angrily, Liu Meng sighed helplessly, he placed a light kiss on Ye Jin's forehead, and then he said helplessly: "What should I do, my Jin Brother, I really want to lock you in the house, let you only care about me, let you only see me, my brother Jin, you should care about me, I am your husband-in-law."

Seeing that Ye Jin looked like you were seriously ill, Liu Meng helplessly supported his forehead, and then he said in a deep voice, "I see, I can borrow money from Brother Tian, ​​don't worry."

After the words fell, Liu Meng left feeling a little disappointed.

Looking at Liu Meng's lost back, Ye Jin frowned in annoyance, why didn't he realize that Liu Meng liked to control him so much, and couldn't see him caring about others so much.

Tian Ge'er and others naturally didn't want Niu Tiezhu to serve as a soldier, so they started raising money as soon as they got the news, but the Niu family's money plus his family's money was only 30 taels, which was still 20 taels short. It wasn't that they spent a lot of money to get married some time ago, otherwise they would be enough.

Looking at the 20 taels of silver, Tian Ge'er was very annoyed, and finally he went to Ye's house.

Originally, Ye Jin wanted to go to Tian Ge'er, but now Tian Ge'er came to him just in time, the moment Tian Ge'er opened his mouth, he immediately agreed, and even handed over the silver that Liu Meng gave him before, to Tian Ge'er, Brother Tian, ​​who was holding the silver taels, was very happy and gave Ye Jin a big hug. Then he hurried home with the silver taels, and he had to tell his family immediately.

Seeing Tian Ge'er's happy back, Ye Jin was very happy.

In fact, the reason why Ye Jin discussed with Liu Meng was that he didn't want to take advantage of Liu Meng. Since he didn't want to live with Liu Meng and resisted Liu Meng, he couldn't take Liu Meng's money for granted, so he and Liu Meng Liu Meng said the reason, but he only borrowed Liu Meng's money first, and would return it to Liu Meng when he had it.

I don't know Ye Jin's thoughts at all, Liu Meng is in Yunluo Town at this time, it is still the private room in Yipin Building, and there are still Liu Meng and Mu Liancheng in the private room.

Without the laughing figure of the past, not only Liu Meng, but even Mu Liancheng looked serious at this time.

"How is the situation recently?" It was Liu Meng who broke the silence.

"The situation is not good. The West Wu Kingdom has already started to act. The current recruitment is not that simple. They are said to be logistics soldiers, but they will have to go to the front line at that time. The West Wu Kingdom and Mingxuan Kingdom will go to war." Mu Liancheng Said irritably.

Seeing Liu Meng staring at him waiting for the next sentence, Mu Liancheng said angrily: "A few days ago, it was rumored that a small village on the border was massacred by the West Wu State."

Mu Liancheng clenched his fists angrily and thumped on the table fiercely. As long as he thought of the small village that was massacred, he couldn't calm down no matter what. He didn't even let the baby in the swaddle go. How cruel.

"How could it be so serious? I haven't heard any wind from here." Liu Meng frowned, he just felt that something was wrong, and it seemed that they were not safe here.

Mu Liancheng's eyes widened, he thumped the table hard, and said just now: "This matter is a secret, and it has been blocked in order not to affect the hearts of the people. If it weren't for my brother who wanted me to go back to the capital because he was afraid that it would be unsafe here, I'm afraid I do not even know."

"Did my brother say that I'm going back to the capital? No matter what my brother says this time, it won't work. The booklet for transferring back to the capital has arrived. We will be returning to the capital in a few days." Mu Liancheng raised his head suddenly. Staring at Liu Meng closely, he persuaded: "Meng Zi, I'm afraid this place is not safe, why don't you take Ye Jin and the others to the capital, the capital is safer than here."

As soon as he mentioned going to the capital, Liu Meng shook his head irritably. He was afraid that Ye Jin would leave him if he knew that Ye Lin was in the capital, so he didn't dare to let Ye Jin go to the capital. It's so simple, and I also persuaded Ye Jin to go to the capital, but Ye Jin refused to go, saying that Ye Lin and grandma would not find them when they came back. Tell Ye Jin about the matter, if he loses Ye Jin because of this, it will be useless for him to cry.

"What's wrong?" Mu Liancheng asked puzzled, he didn't know why Liu Meng was worried.

"Brother Jin doesn't want to go to the capital, so he has to stay here and wait for Ye Lin." Liu Meng said with a sigh.

Knowing what Liu Meng is worried about, Mu Liancheng can't persuade him anymore, but this place is really not peaceful, he needs to let Liu Meng pay more attention, "Mengzi, it's really not peaceful here now, if you want to stay, you must You have to plan ahead and be prepared.”

I am very grateful to Mu Liancheng for his reminder. Liu Meng patted Mu Liancheng on the shoulder, and he said with a smile: "Liancheng, thanks to your friend who has helped me a lot in the past few years, it's good for you to go back to the capital. Here's the chance, I'll take Brother Jin and Xiao Bao to see you in the capital, Xiao Bao really likes you as an uncle."

Mu Liancheng also likes Xiaobao very much, and he is very happy when Xiaobao is mentioned, "Xiaobao is so cute, of course I welcome it, or you can just let me take Xiaobao to the capital, where it is much better than here. "

Liu Meng would not agree to Mu Liancheng taking Xiaobao away, but now he is pointing at Xiaobao to win over his relationship with Ye Jin.

Pounding Mu Liancheng's shoulder hard, Liu Meng laughed and cursed, "No way."

As the words fell, Liu Meng got up and left. Speaking of which, the last time I asked Mu Liancheng to help me with Brother Mu, it turned out that Brother Mu was worse than Mu Liancheng. I didn't know how to coax Fulang because he had never coaxed him before. How could he know, so Liu Meng didn't ask anyone this time, just let the flow be nice to Ye Jin, and also let the flow wait for Ye Jin to forgive him.

After learning the news he wanted to know, Liu Meng went directly back to Liushu Village, and then went to Liu's house. He naturally wanted to tell Father Liu the news, and then he persuaded Father Liu and Mother Liu to go to the capital, but was once again declined.

Knowing the seriousness of the matter, Liu's father took Liu Meng to the village chief's house. The three men discussed in the room for a long time, and decided to stay put. If the officers and soldiers come tomorrow and can't take them away, then their Liushu Village will be over, and the matter of massacring the village is too big, and if they say it, they will be afraid of the chaos of the villagers, but they will be frightened, which will have a bad effect, so they discuss it and decide first hide it.

Because he was afraid that something would happen suddenly, Liu Meng told Ye Jin about the village being massacred at the border, and also told Ye Jin about the cave on the mountain. If something happened when he was not there, let them go to the cave on the mountain. Hide away, although the possibility that he is not by Ye Jin's side is very small, but be prepared.

On the second day, the officers and soldiers came to lead people, because the other villages we went to first, the officers and soldiers were very large, and there were also many people who came to Liushu Village, even a small group of soldiers, which made many village names tremble.

Fifty taels is not a small amount, and there are very few people who can afford the silver. There are only five or six families in Liushu Village who can afford the silver, and the rest of the families send people to serve as soldiers.

Liushu Village is a small village with a small population. There are a total of more than 150 people and 56 households. Excluding the village head’s family, there are eight families who are lonely and widowed. There are also six families who donate money. A total of 41 people went to Liushu Village. Serve as a soldier.

Seeing those people leaving with the officers and soldiers, many people shed tears of reluctance. They were very reluctant, but what's the use of reluctance, they can't give money.

Until those figures disappeared, the people of Liushu Village still surrounded the village entrance and refused to disperse.

"Ah Han, my son..."

Aunt Du, who was already old, chased two steps forward, but they were no longer in sight. Even if she chased them now, it would be useless, she cried sadly.

Infected by this atmosphere, others began to cry, and Liushu Village was filled with sadness for a while.

This kind of scene is often the most uncomfortable. Ye Jin didn't want to come, but Ye Haoxuan ran out when he was not paying attention. He came out to ask Ye Haoxuan to go back. After all, Ye Haoxuan was still young, and he didn't want Ye Haoxuan to feel the joys and sorrows early. He hoped to give Ye Haoxuan a good childhood.

Often things went against our wishes, when Ye Jin found Ye Haoxuan, he was staring at the crying people at the entrance of the village in a daze, his big bright eyes were full of puzzlement.

"Haoxuan, come here, come with me." Ye Jin shouted.

Hearing the sound, Ye Haoxuan looked at Ye Jin just now, then he threw the branch in his hand, and glanced at his friend who was also confused, he hesitated for a moment, then ran to Ye Jin.

Holding Ye Haoxuan in her arms to comfort her, Ye Jin took him to Ye's house.

"Brother Jin, why are they so strange, why are they crying all of a sudden, the uncles will come back after leaving!" Ye Haoxuan couldn't help asking.

Glancing at Ye Haoxuan, Ye Jin said: "They are not as simple as you think, maybe they are afraid of loneliness, because the uncles may have to leave home for a long time before returning."

Ye Haoxuan scratched his head in confusion, and he said naively: "I really don't understand these adults, we are not afraid of loneliness, why are you afraid, Brother Jin, you see, I am not afraid of my sister leaving, I know she will definitely come back to us , Sister must have gone to make a lot of money, and when Sister comes back, I will ask her to buy me a lot of delicious food."

Hearing Ye Haoxuan's honest words that day, Ye Jin couldn't help laughing, in fact, being innocent is pretty good, at least there are not so many troubles.

Raising her hand to touch Ye Haoxuan's hair, seeing Ye Haoxuan's embarrassed stare, Ye Jin smiled and said: "Okay, I will ask my sister to buy you a lot."

The children are the most innocent. Two days after the recruiter left, they returned to their previous lively appearance and went out to play wildly again. Ye Haoxuan did the same. Ye Jin couldn't help smiling and shaking his head when he saw it. He just thought that this kid Ye Haoxuan I'm looking for a fight, this is the first time I haven't practiced calligraphy well and sneaked out.

And within a few days of recruiting, Liu Meng received a letter from Feng Qing. Mu Liancheng, Brother Mu and others had left and returned to the capital. This letter was a parting letter, and there was a jade pendant in it, which Mu Liancheng carried with him. Yes, give it to Liu Meng as a gift, so that Liu Meng can take the jade pendant to find him in the Xiangye's mansion when he goes to the capital. It turns out that he is the son of the Xiangye's mansion, and his father is the left minister.

Looking at the letter and jade pendant in his hand, Liu Meng couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth. He naturally knew that Mu Liancheng was the son of a prime minister. If he went to the capital, how could he let him go.
