Zhao Xin shook his head, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile, "I don't think it's true that my sister-in-law is ingenious. Such a fragrance is far better than most drinks, which makes people feel relaxed and happy."
Lian Po, who was beside him, laughed and said, "You two are in love with each other when you talk about elegance. I don't know anything about it. What's good about this water? I feel light and tasteless when I drink it. On the contrary, I feel uncomfortable with a strange smell."
Xiaoyue glanced at Lian Po and said angrily, "You rough man naturally can't get any benefits. You see, the Zhao brothers are elegant people. They are not like you, stupid like cows, and they don't know anything except marching and fighting."
When Lian Po heard the words, he smiled and did not refute. His face was a useful expression.
Xiaoyue turned back to the kitchen and brought the dinner in a short time. Lian Ji thought that he didn't want to sit at a table with Zhao Xin. He hurriedly picked up a few chopsticks and took the opportunity to slip away. Lian Po saw that it was not easy to take care of guests here, so he let him to leave.
The dishes are very simple, a can of meat soup, a tail of fresh fish, supplemented by a few ordinary vegetables. However, the taste is excellent. The gravy is fragrant, mellow and not greasy, and the fresh fish is also extremely delicious. Zhao Xin was full of praise when he ate it, and even praised his sister-in-law's cooking skills. Xiaoyue saw that Zhao Xin was very satisfied with what he had eaten. She smiled at Lian Po and picked up the wine pot to serve Zhao Xin. Zhao Xin quickly covered the glass and said with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, I have to watch the night, so I dare not drink."
Xiaoyue smiled and explained, "This wine is not an ordinary drink. If you don't drink much, you can't get drunk. Brother Zhao might as well try it."
Zhao Xin picked up the wine glass and put it on his lips to taste. He only felt that there was a faint smell of wine between his mouth and tongue. The mouth was mellow, and the fragrance overshadowed the smell of wine, and he couldn't help but be surprised; "What kind of wine is this? It tastes very delicious."
Lian Po put down his glass and explained with a smile, "This is the wild fruit wine brewed by your sister-in-law. She always disliked the drunkenness of my drinking, so she made this wine, which can not only relieve my sarcasm, but also reassure her."
Zhao Xin laughed and said enviously, "Brother Lian, you are so lucky. It's really envious to marry such a clever lady."
Lian Po also said with a smile, "That's right. I always think so."
After saying that, Lian Po remembered something and said with emotion: "I can marry your sister-in-law. You may not know that she was originally the daughter of a big family. In order to be with me, she did not hesitate to break up with her parents. After marrying me for more than ten years, she did not live a good life. She really wronged her."
Xiaoyue put down the bowl and chopsticks, reached out and gently held Lian Po's hand, looked at each other, and said emotionally, "I have never felt wronged. I'm satisfied with you. Husband, you don't have to blame yourself. Since I chose you at the beginning, I absolutely believe that one day you will definitely rely on your talent to get ahead and make a name for yourself!"
Zhao Xin was also a little moved when he looked at it and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, what you said in time. Brother Lian is just unlucky. Today, he has been running from time to time and has been successfully appreciated by his master. The master's mind is well known all over the world. As long as Brother Lian's talent is known by him, it is not a lie that he will rise day by day.
Xiaoyue looked happy and said, "Then ask Brother Zhao for help. You are the person around the master. If you are willing to say the last sentence, it is better than a hundred sentences said by outsiders."
"This... Naturally, I will try my best." Zhao Xin nodded with a wry smile and agreed, thinking that the two of them did not know the father's temper. He always believed only his own judgment. If someone deliberately mentioned someone in his ear, he would be suspicious, which would only be counterproductive.
Thinking of this, I deliberately changed the topic and said, "Sister-in-law, you are a person, but which one are you from?" My mother's family also moved to Handan.
Xiaoyue smiled and said, "I ordered Li Yue. It's the Li family. I don't know if you can recognize it."
"Li's?" Zhao Xin was shocked and immediately said, "It's such a coincidence that my mother is Handan Li. So you are the same as my mother and sister-in-law."
Zhao Xin and the two of them met the genealogy, and then they found that Li Yue was actually his mother's sister. With this relationship, the friendship between Han Xin and Lian Po was much closer in an instant.
After chatting for a while, he knew that Zhao Xin was actually a clan. His father was the internal history of the dynasty, and Lian Po and his wife seemed to value him more and more.
This meal was very happy, but Zhao Xin had to be on duty in the middle of the night and had to go back to bed early, so he didn't stay after the meal. He complained to the two and left.
At this time, it was just night, and the market in Mayi seemed to be very lively, with endless streams of people coming and going. Zhao Xin was secretly glad that he didn't come on horseback, otherwise he would definitely have a hard time here in the market.
Since he is not in a hurry, Zhao Xin also walked slowly in the market with the flow of people, looking around from time to time looking at some strange things. Suddenly, there was a noise in front of me, and a large group of people were surrounded in the distance. They were curious, so they also squeezed into the crowd.
I saw three people in the middle of the crowd, a man from the Central Plains and two barbarian girls, arguing there. Zhao Xin listened for a while before he understood. It turned out that the two barren girls said that the man had stolen his money bag, but the man bit back and said that the two women were liars who wanted to cheat their money bags. The three of them were quarreling about this.
The man was about 30 or 40 years old. He had a long pointed mouth and monkey cheeks, and his words and behavior were extremely light. When he argued with the two girls, he was not in a hurry. Instead, he smiled and teased them from time to time. As for the two girls, one is older, about seventeen or eight years old, and the other is about the same age as Zhao Xin. She looks like a childish face and speaks loudly with a red face. Both of them were dressed in Hufu, and the Central Plains words were not very fluent. In the man's laughter, a sentence came out for a long time, and only a few words were repeated.
Zhao Xin saw the appearance of the three people and guessed who was right and wrong, but he didn't have so much leisure to care about this kind of thing. He was about to leave, but his eyes fell on the face of the young girl. Suddenly, his heart moved and he couldn't help stopping.
The girl is not outstanding in appearance, her face is slightly dark, and her figure is much thinner than that of girls of the same age. Her figure is squat, and there is no female plump beauty, but a pair of eyes are very bright, like blue autumn water. Zhao Xin couldn't help stopping his step. Suddenly, he remembered Ran Min, who had only one side of his fate. Thinking of her bright eyes and the smile at the corners of his mouth, his heart, which had not been stirred for a long time, was disturbed.
The man was almost speechless when he saw that the two girls were not good at words. He was suddenly very proud and became more and unscrupulous. And the onlookers were basically Zhao people. Seeing that the barren girls were bullied, no one was willing to stand up for them, but just gathered around to watch the play.
The younger girlish face turned red, pointed to the man's nose and said, "Why are you Central Plains so cunning? I've heard others say how good the Central Plains is. I don't feel it at all."
As soon as he said this, Zhao Xin couldn't help screaming. Sure enough, Zhao people, who were watching beside him, suddenly made an uproar and pointed to the girl one after another and scolded. Seeing this, the man was even more proud. He stretched out his hand and touched the girl's face with a smile, and his mouth was unclean**! He smiled and said, "I have a lot of things. If I don't let you taste it now, it will definitely make you want to die. I don't want to leave me again in this life."
Before his hand reached over, he suddenly felt that his arm was tight, and then the severe pain came, but he saw a teenager grabbing his arm and looking at himself with a smile.
"Who are you? How dare you take care of me... It's about the matter between us." The splashy was about to open his mouth and curse, but he suddenly saw the excellent inner armor made by the cavalry worn by the man. He is not good at skill, but his vision is excellent. He knows that this person is by no means something he can offend casually, so he swallowed the second half of the sentence.
"Bear it." Zhao Xin stretched out his hand and lit up the sword around his waist. The skin didn't dare to disove, so he had to give the money bag to Zhao Xin.
Zhao Xin put in a money bag. He asked him, "How much money is in it, do you know?"
The Popi hesitated for a while and couldn't speak. The younger girl had already opened her mouth and shouted, "I know that there are 26 knife coins and some golden barleys. These are all things I bring with me."
Zhao Xin pinched the money bag, stared at the splashy, and shouted in a low voice, "Get out of here."
The splashy still wanted to quibble, but there was a flower in front of him. Zhao Xin's sword had come out of its sheath and was mounted on his neck. Yuanhong's cold murderous spirit quickly spread. The splashy was so scared that his legs trembled, and he turned around and left without looking back.
Zhao Xin took the sword, played a beautiful sword flower, threw the money bag to the young girl, and shrugged his shoulders; "Take it, be careful next time. It's not always so lucky."
The girl nodded with her head down. Zhao Xin didn't care. He turned around and wanted to leave, but he heard the girl suddenly say, "You... What's your name?"
"Zhao Xin." Zhao Xin turned around and smiled.
"My name is Aina. You can come to me on the grassland in the future." The girl smiled sweetly, and her originally plain appearance looked very cute.
"Okay, for sure." Zhao Xin answered perfunctorily and turned around and left.
Until Zhao Xin's back disappeared, the older girl whispered, "Princess, let's go back quickly, or Shan Yu will be furious when he finds you sneaking out. At that time, we will suffer."
"Ye-huh." Aina nodded absent-mindedly, her eyes were shining, and she whispered, "He said his name was Zhao Xin. It's really beautiful. Are the names of the Central Plains people so beautiful?"
