Qing Dynasty: I Rely on Games To Fight For Favor

Xia Mian's original body has an older brother and an older sister. The older sister is already married. The older brother had set up a marriage, but he didn't get married.

Her Ama's name is Sachat. She is almost forty this year. She has thick eyebrows and big eyes. She is not particularly handsome, but very attractive. In addition, in the army all the year round, there is a different kind of courage and perseverance of ordinary people.

Her mother's name is Minzhu, in her thirties, she has bright eyes and white teeth.

More than half a month ago, at a very characteristic house at the foot of Changbai Mountain, Satat took his son Namu and hurried back from the barracks. Today, he finally had some time, so he hurried home to see his wife.

As soon as he entered the door, he found that the stove was cold and the tea was cold. He couldn't help touching his forehead and began to worry.

"Ama!" Namu touched his stomach, so hungry.

Sarchat stared at him, isn't he hungry? It's all this time.

If you have the ability, you let your mother cook, he said to Namu with his eyes.

Nam Lin has been beaten by his forehead since he was a child. At this time, he didn't dare to go.

A father and son are at the door, you look at me, I look at you, no one has any idea.

At this moment, Minzhu lifted the curtain and walked out from inside, with red eyes, as if he had just cried.

"Emam," Namu called.

Min Joo ignored him, sat down directly opposite, and began to cry again.

Sarchat was distressed and annoyed, and Xia Mian was also his daughter. Wouldn't he not love her? But since she entered the palace, which letter in the past three years was not for money? I asked her what it was for, without saying, it was like a bottomless pit. He had already emptied his family. Last time it cost 300 taels for a mouth. Where could he find so much money?

"I'm spoiled by you." He said to Minzhu.

"What does it mean to be spoiled by me, are you not used to it? Oh, you have been in the barracks all year round, I am afraid that you have forgotten this daughter. Poor daughter, is it wrong for me to love her a little bit more!" The same way.

Sarchat was sullen, not knowing how to refute.

Minzhu directly cried, "I told you not to be a boss, you don't have to be a trouser belt, and you can't get anything. If you don't listen, let us suffer along with you.

Look around, there are still a few left in this broken place. Fu Shu Guanzhong, they have all gone to enjoy their blessings. You are here stupidly. You earn eight taels of silver every month and half of the army is paid. If it weren't for me, our family would starve to death!

The daughter entered the palace, and she had a relationship with each other, eating, drinking, and clothing, but she didn't need any money. If you give her money, she can get better, if you don't give her, maybe she will have to be bullied to death by others.

If you don't feel sorry for your daughter, I can't stand it. "Thinking that her daughter might have already suffered, Min Joo fell into tears while lying down on the case.

Sarchat's heart beats suddenly, she is gouging his heart, why doesn't he feel sorry for his daughter? In the past year, the family ran out of money, and Xia Mian asked for money. How often did he go to someone else to borrow money in a low voice?

But there must be a limit to everything!

If it wasn't for the good fate of others, now everyone who wants the bill has to overturn the roof of their house, what would she want him to do?

During the entry, they are close to the border here, and there are frequent harassment by the Raksha Kingdom outside. The winter is extremely cold. Most of the people enter the customs, but what about the remaining old and weak and the land where they have lived for generations?

Give up to the Raksha people?

He is not reconciled.

But he also knew that he made his wife and children suffer with him in this way, so he never blamed Min Joo.

There was only Min Joo crying in the room for a while.

Sarchat knew that he had to make an idea about this matter. After thinking about it for a while, he said to Namu, “This year we have received a lot less fur and medicinal materials here, and deliberately lowered the price. Happy New Year everyone."

At the foot of Changbai Mountain, they rely on mountains and eat mountains. They mostly live by hunting and gathering herbs. It used to be very lively when there were a lot of people here. Now that everyone is gone, it is not safe, and vendors in the distance are reluctant to come.

Sarchat had been thinking about this all the time, so...Of course, he was also worried about Xia Mian, otherwise Namu wouldn't have to go to the capital, and it would be much closer to Shanhaiguan.

Minzhu was overjoyed when he heard this, and looked at her husband gratefully, and she knew that he still loved her.

Sarchat sank his face, "I'm not cooking yet."

Minzhu wiped his tears and went to the back.

Sarchat is very prestigious here. He told everyone about this. Everyone rushed to hand over their fur medicinal materials to Namu and let him sell them.

In two days of work, eight big cars were built.

On the morning of the third day, Namu was about to set off. Satchat took off his treasured sword and gave it to him. This treasured sword could be exchanged for some money. If Xia Mian really needed money, Namu could sell it.

"Ama!" Namu was holding the treasured sword, and only felt that it was worth a lot of money. This knife Sarchat cherished very much and accompany him to kill countless enemies. Usually he wants to see him and refuses to let it.

"Be careful all the way, these fur and medicinal materials are the lives of the folks, you must take care of them. Also, you are upright, and you have all three teachers in the capital. When you arrive in the capital, don't be deceived." Sarchat instructed.

Namu knew that he would guard him day and night, and he would do his best.

Sarchat patted him on the shoulder, there was nothing to tell.

At this time, Minzhu came, and she also had a bag of things for Namu, a white tiger skin, "I need silver, first use mine. His broken knife is worth a few dollars." She said to Namu. Say so.

Of course she was kind, she couldn't bear to sell her own knife.

Sarchat understood that he held her hand tightly and got his wife like this, so what would the husband want?

That white tiger skin is not important to her.

Today, a very strange group of people came to the gate of the capital city. They were so dusty, their clothes almost lost their original color, which attracted a lot of people's attention.

"Finally here!" Namu finally breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the towering city gate. For more than half a month, he was worried every day, and finally nothing happened.

Taking out a letter from his arms, he asked people how to get to the house of Umuha, the commander of the infantry camp.

Umuha is his father’s colleague, he used to be a military attaché in Changbai Mountain. He found a way two years ago and was transferred to the capital. Occasionally, the two of them had correspondence, so his father asked him to come to Beijing this time. It's so convenient for him.

Namu didn’t have a deep impression of Umuha. He only remembered that he had a daughter named Yunzhen, two years younger than Xia Mian. They entered the Beijing draft together three years ago, but she fell ill on the way and missed. I heard that I cried for a long time when I came back.

According to the rules of the draft, the age of the show girl must be between thirteen and sixteen. That Yunzhen is exactly sixteen this year.

Their family is in the capital this year, should they go to the draft, right? I just don't know if it was chosen.

Inam thought, it would be better if you didn't choose one, you could choose a suitable person to marry, who is like his sister, who is thousands of miles away from home, it would be difficult to see each other at home.

When asked about the way to Umuha's house, Namu led some people there.

Turning a street, he saw a person's back, and was suddenly stunned.

Why is that person so like his sister?

Nam hurried to catch up, but when he reached the street, there was still the shadow of the man.

"Little girl!" Nam's mouth opened wide, but the sound was not loud. His younger sister was in the palace, and it was impossible for him to be here anyway. He must have read it wrong.

Standing blankly for a while, he turned and continued to walk there.

Xia Mian followed Kangxi, but seemed to feel something, and looked behind. The market is very lively, pedestrians are like running water, but there seems to be nothing to see.

In a blink of an eye, the Kangxi trio had already gone quite far, and she hurried to catch up.

Soon, Namu came to Umuha's house.

This is a very quiet street, quiet in the middle of noisy, and the location is good. Looking at the style of the house, it is a two-entry house.

Nam was a little envious. He heard people talk about it on the way to the capital. The house in the capital is expensive. A small broken yard costs two or three hundred taels. The yard in front of him is afraid that it will cost five or six hundred taels. !

He is now also working as a military errand, and only one or two dollars a month, if you want to buy a house like this, without eating or drinking, it will take more than 300 months and more than 20 years.

Erniang has always wanted to enter the customs. One is that the Guanzhong is indeed rich, such as this capital city, he is dazzled by the sight of him, and another, she is also worried about the little sister, staying closer to the little sister, and knowing what is going on quickly. Before he came to Beijing this time, he thought about whether to set up a property in Beijing. When it was cold in winter, he would let Eniang live here and look around.

Now... he had to give up this idea.

Call the door, and a man who looks like a housekeeper will open the door.

Namu gave him his name and the letter, begging to see Umuha.

The butler looked at him, looked at the big cars behind him, nodded and bowed in.

In the room, Umuha is not on duty today and is sitting in the room worrying. Yunzhen finally entered the palace and promised, but for so many days, there hasn't been good news, what can I do?

She is not favored, and his official career is not easy to go.

For a moment, he still regretted that he shouldn't have spent so much money transferred to the capital. Outside the customs, he is not the biggest and at ease. Here, any official mentioned is older than him, and he feels uncomfortable when he looks at people's faces every day.

But for a moment, the prosperity of the capital still fascinated him.

Look at what he is wearing now, silk and satin. Outside the customs, it would be nice to be able to wear a linen shirt. Look at the food, he can eat all the delicacies here, the restaurant has everything, the chef's craftsmanship is good, and outside the customs, he can't eat it even if he has money.

He was frowning when the butler came in, presented him with the letter, and told him about Namu.

When Umuha heard it, his face was sullen. In the past two years, there have been a lot of people coming from outside the prison. Many people have come to him to settle down, eat and drink, and what do they treat him here? Station?

The noble person Xia Mian was only appointed last night, the news he got was that Xia Mian had not seen the emperor in three years, because an old grass flower caused the emperor's eyesight and was inexplicably sealed as a permanent thing. I don't know how Yunzhen told him, anyway, he is not optimistic about Xia Mian, and even he can't have a good face to Namu.

"Just say I'm not here." He returned the letter to the butler.

The butler lowered his voice and said, "Master, he can take things with him. I counted, there are eight carts, all of which are all fur and medicinal materials. It will be cold in a few months. The fur outside the customs... …"

Umuha stretched out his hand to stop him. He has spent so many years outside the Guan, do you know the value of the furs and medicinal materials in the Guanwai?

After thinking about it, he stood up and greeted him with a gracious look.
