Chapter 187 Going to the Military Camp to Do Menial Duties
On the downstream river bank, Yan Meng stuck his head out and looked like a mud man!
After wiping his face and revealing his eyes, he saw a girl with a rosy face standing on the river bank.
Mo Cuiyu was running breathlessly, her hair was slightly messy, and her peach eyes were bright and shining.
"Are you okay?" She couldn't speak clearly.
The voice was sweet to begin with, but due to the uneven breaths from running, it became a little hoarse.
Yan Meng only felt a slight sensation in his heart, floating and unable to settle down.
"fine."
He shook his chest muscles out of habit, and a piece of yellow mud fell off.
The thin fabric couldn't cover anything at all, and the muscle outlines and bulges were clearly visible.
Mo Cuiyu dropped her eyes in shock. "I'll go get you some clothes."
"What are you taking? No need. If you have the time, you can go home!"
Yan Meng struggled to get ashore step by step, stepping into the half-meter-deep yellow mud.
Is autumn coming soon?
A bit cool.
"Oh my! Damn it, come quickly and catch the vagrant--" There was a sharp explosion.
Ten feet away, an old woman in her fifties or sixties stared at Yan Meng with her eyes wide open.
I never knew that such an old woman could have such bright eyes.
It's not like being frightened, but more like being extremely excited.
Mo Cuiyu's eyes were filled with fear.
Yan Meng was so scared that he started to wonder if he was a man-eating beast!
"Oh! Oh! My girl, run! I'll protect you!"
The old woman pulled a stick from the cart full of grass and rushed over.
Mo Cuiyu's whole body trembled, as if she had just woken up. She covered her face with her hands, turned around and ran away like a madman.
I almost tripped over a stone in the middle.
Yan Meng: “…”
I realized it later and lowered my head.
Oh shit!
Where are your pants?
Damn, the mud should be covered up but it’s not covered up, my brother has been seen naked by everyone!
I've never lost such a big person in my life!
Before the old woman rushed over, Yan Meng hurriedly ran back to the river.
"I'm waiting on the shore to see if you can come out!"
Damn it, do you want me to take advantage of you when I go out?
That’s a nice thought!
Yan Meng swam back a little further and finally saw the unfaithful pair of pants hooked on the stone.
Floating and floating, swinging and swinging.
Just like his older brother who has nowhere to go.
See it?
I see.
I was also scared.
How can I have the face to go back?
Mo Cuiyu ran back home in one breath, her face as red as the clouds in the sky.
Sang Ning and others who were worried didn't think much about it. They let her catch her breath before asking.
"Have you seen Yan Meng?"
"No... Look, I saw it. It was in the river. I didn't go over."
No one paid attention to her stuttering and just thought she was scared.
"It's okay, Yan Meng is very skilled in martial arts, so there's no need to worry. I just don't know who is in the woods. Let's ask him when he comes back." Sang Ning said.
Mo Cuiyu shrank into the corner.
If he comes back, how should I face him?
I waited anxiously until dinner, but Yan Meng didn't come back.
Mo Cuiyu's tense heartstrings finally relaxed.
"Nothing should happen, right?" Sang Ning asked.
"No, no one in Liangzhou City can control him." Huo Changan said.
"Don't worry, I'll be back when it's time."
After a while, Huo Baohong and his family arrived.
Only then did everyone realize that the people in the woods in the afternoon were actually from Western Liao!
There were fifteen in total, one of whom was a person of some status in Western Liao, but they were all stabbed in the throat by a mysterious man.
General Su said that the mysterious man's martial arts skills were better than his, and his uncertain identity made him feel uneasy, so he must find him.
"Sister-in-law, my brother said that you were on the other side of the river at that time. Did you see that man?" Huo Jiangchu asked.
"No, we are making a clay stove, so we don't have time to look over there." Sang Ning said.
But in his heart, he admired Yan Meng's kung fu even more.
She kept listening for any noise on the other side of the river, but heard nothing.
Fifteen people were dealt with quietly!
At this moment, Mo Cuiyu thought the same thing.
She watched Huo Baohong talking lovingly to Feng'er and gradually became lost in thought.
Huo Changan frowned deeply and snorted coldly, saying, "If they can kill the Xiliao people, they must be one of our own. What's there to worry about? What we should worry about now is why the Xiliao people are here!"
Western Liao is here to investigate again, which means they are definitely restless again. The safety of Liangzhou is worrying, and they still have the time to worry about the mysterious man.
Huo Jiangchu also frowned when he heard this.
The room was quiet for a while.
Sang Ning broke the silence: "By the way, Second Uncle, we are doing something for the government now. I will mention it to the county magistrate. You can come and help."
Working for the government?
Huo Baohong was shocked.
"Can prisoners still work for the government?"
"Why not? Others can't do it, only we can do it." Sang Ning said without hiding anything.
Huo Baohong was stunned for a moment. That’s right, others can’t find water, but she can. Others can’t predict locusts, but she can.
"So, then you don't have to serve?"
"No."
Very good!
Huo Baohong looked delighted and smiled for the first time in a long time.
"Xiao Feng'er, from now on, grandpa will be able to see you every day."
He held Feng'er in his arms and looked at Huo Jianglin with a cold glare.
Huo Jianglin carefully looked at Mo Cuiyu who was sitting quietly in a corner, and slowly walked forward.
Huo Jingya blocked him in an instant.
Huo Jianglin smiled awkwardly and said guiltily, "Cui Yu, thank you for buying me time today."
"I, I will pick myself up and not be such a jerk anymore."
Mo Cuiyu didn't say anything. She lowered her head and a blush slowly appeared on her face.
Huo Jianglin was stunned.
Yan Meng stepped in and saw this scene.
The blushing woman under the light, the affectionate man, and the grandfather playing with his grandson, all are very happy.
He felt it was extremely dazzling and couldn't help but snort coldly.
Mo Cuiyu trembled and looked up suddenly.
Just when I thought of him...he came...
"Has Mengzi had his meal?" asked the old lady.
"Old lady, I have used it."
"Would you like to eat some more?" Sang Ning asked with a burning gaze.
After all, he worked hard today.
"Uh, I won't eat the Fourth Madam anymore." Yan Meng felt that Sang Ning's eyes were a little too bright.
Keep your distance quickly.
There were so many people around that it was inconvenient to say anything, so he pulled Jintang to sleep.
Only then did Mo Cuiyu relax her heart which had been pounding with fear.
Fortunately, he didn't look over, otherwise she would have to escape!
Huo Changan was about to leave when he heard Huo Jiangchu ask, "Fourth brother, General Su suggested that I go to the barracks to do odd jobs today. What do you think?"
"You want to go?"
"That's what I think, but I haven't decided yet. I'd like to hear your advice."
"You're a criminal, so it's going to be very difficult once you get in. No matter how capable you are, you won't get a chance to be promoted."
"I know. I want to go in and train myself. I don't want to think about anything else for now."
He wanted to become stronger so that he could protect his family. He didn't want to be a grown man who was inferior to a woman and be at the mercy of others.
"Then go ahead. I think it's great."
The military camp is the best place to test one's character and will. Finally, someone in my second uncle's family has begun to stand up.
Huo Jiangchu smiled and made up his mind completely.
Huo Baohong blinked and did not object.
It seemed like I saw him and my elder brother when they were young again.
I hope Jiang Chu can be like his uncle, unyielding and as strong as iron.
