In the picture, he and his mother were locked in a dark prison, and a cold young man walked in with the same expressionless expression.

Why do I always have this strange memory?

Is it certain that my family will be imprisoned for something?

But what could happen?

Firearms? But all my firearms have been handed over to the guard. There is no reason to arrest and behead my family for this matter, right?

Chang'an frowned and looked at Lu Jingzhou again. Seeing that he was looking at him, he hurriedly lowered his head and continued to pinch the seedlings.

"Chang'an!" Zhao Yuan ran over and stood between her and Lu Jingzhou.

"Here, raspberries, picked outside the city." Zhao Yuan took out a handkerchief bag from his arms, opened the handkerchief, and inside was a handful of small, bright red fruits.

Chang'an was not polite, picked one up and put it in his mouth.

Sour and a little sweet, "delicious."

Zhao Yuan grinned and said: "There are still many in the forest, but they are not yet ripe. I will pick them for you in a few days."

Before Chang An could say anything, Lu Jingzhou walked closer and said to Zhao Yuan: "Aren't you going to join the army? I have already handed you the letter of recommendation. You will train well with the soldiers for now. When the commander agrees, you will go to the guard station." "High value."

For the person he recommended, the commander would have to arrange for Zhao Yuan to be assigned a rank of Xiaoqi from the seventh rank no matter what.

Although these positions still have to be reported to the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Civil Affairs for approval, as long as the commander-in-chief submits the list, it will be accurate 100% of the time.

Zhao Yuan was not overjoyed, but he still thanked Lu Jingzhou: "Thank you, Mr. Lu, for your support, but I want to stay at Beishan Health Center."

Lu Jingzhou made a serious face: "Since you have surrendered to the army, you must obey the commander's arrangements. You can be wherever you want, right?"

Zhao Yuan hummed lowly and said no more.

Within two months, the imperial court ordered all the guards in northern Xinjiang to withdraw. Even though the Jurchens had been beaten back to Jianzhou, the emperor still gave up control of northern Xinjiang, believing that spending huge sums of money every year to raise tens of thousands of soldiers was not worth the loss.

Chang'an felt a little sorry, but also relieved.

Unfortunately, I have just tidied up this place and planted fruit trees everywhere. I am afraid that I will be able to take advantage of the Jurchens in the future.

Fortunately, the glass he threw into the ponds and moats could be retrieved, and certain fruit trees could be dug out and taken away, otherwise it would be a real loss.

Fortunately, my family finally no longer has to worry.

On the day of withdrawal, Chang'an hired more than a dozen carriages to carry all his belongings, including a piece of dead wood with mushrooms growing on it.

The fruit trees should also be tightly packed with varieties that are not available in the mainland, and the roots should be wrapped in a large ball of mud. Sprinkle some water along the way, and they should be able to survive where they are.

On the way back, Hui Niang and she sat in a carriage, driven by a group of soldiers.

Seeing that she had been silent, Chang An said seriously: "Aunt Hui, if you want to live with your father and brother, I can help you."

He could see that Huiniang valued family ties very much, so instead of letting her stay at home and play the role of a servant, it would be better to let her go home.

Because my father was concerned about the feelings of his wife and children, he would not be with her at all. Even if his mother-in-law was not around, he would rarely talk to her, let alone have sex with her.

One day Chang'an heard his father say that if Huiniang hadn't been sent by the commander, he wouldn't have kept her at all.

In this case, Chang'an wanted to go beyond his duties once and return Huiniang's body deed to her.

Hui Niang was shocked when she heard this. She shook her head repeatedly and begged: "Chang'an, don't drive me away. I, I just want to serve my wife and you, and I'm not going anywhere."

Chang'an: "It's just that it's useless for you to stay in my house. Now that you are less than thirty, don't you want to have children by your side?"

Hui Niang looked sad.

Of course she wanted to have an heir, even a daughter, but she didn't want to marry someone else, so she could only think about it in her heart.

Ten days later, everyone entered Shanhaiguan one after another.

Not even two days later, another imperial edict came down to disperse the tens of thousands of returning troops to various places.

Tao was also specifically appointed to command this unit to go to the northwest and garrison in Western Xinjiang.

Commander Tao was so angry that he wanted to scold his mother.

But what can be done? The imperial edict cannot be disobeyed, so he can only inform his subordinates of the matter.

Song Erxiao was also his general, so he naturally wanted to go to Western Xinjiang with him.

Chang'an was a little surprised when he learned about this.

Shanhaiguan could not garrison more than 100,000 soldiers, so they had to go separately. But what they didn't expect was that Tao Wei commanded this branch to go to the northwest.

The journey from east to west is so difficult that it is no less than being demoted and sent to a banquet.

So Song Erxiao left without even having time to take away his wife, daughter and children.

However, before leaving, he actually agreed to Lu Jingzhou's marriage proposal and signed an engagement letter.

Chang'an only learned of this when Lu Jingzhou personally delivered the betrothal gift.

Mrs. Jiang was naturally very happy and immediately invited Mrs. Shizi to be the witness.

Chang'an was confused, but he also knew that he was not young and should have gotten engaged long ago.

For a seventeen-year-old girl like her, some people even have babies.

Song Sanshun also liked Lu Jingzhou. After all, he was the one who supported his brother-in-law to become an official.

Although he is currently doing business, without the help of Lu Jingzhou and his brother-in-law Wu Zhonglou, the business route would not be so smooth.

Little did he know that the car dealership he opened had aroused the jealousy of many people. After all, this large shop could earn more than ten thousand taels of silver a year. If it were not for the support of his brother-in-law, it would have been replaced by the local wealthy businessmen.

"Chang'an, Lu Jingzhou wants to set the wedding date in March next year, and the weather happens to be neither cold nor hot."

Mrs. Jiang said to her daughter, "Furthermore, your uncle will step down from office this year and Lu Jingzhou will also return to the capital. Then we will go to the capital with them."

Wu also said at the side: "Chang'an, as the saying goes, marriage must be ordered by parents and a matchmaker. Don't blame your father for killing it first and telling it later. Even the descendants of the royal family must obey their parents' arrangements and marry whoever they want. .

Moreover, Lu Jingzhou is indeed a good boy. Although his temper is a little cold, he is calm and steady. Isn't that true for men in high positions? "

"I know." The marriage has been decided, can I regret it? What's more, Chang'an doesn't want to be an old girl at home for the rest of her life.

Even if I think it's nothing, there's no guarantee it won't affect my sister Chang Ning and her two younger brothers.

Chang'an changed the subject: "Then do we have to move our shop together?"

Wu: "Your uncle said he won't move for the time being, but will open a semicolon near the capital and hang up another sign."

Now that the business of the Song family workshop has become very large, Song Sanshun was afraid of attracting too much attention, so he opened branches in various places, still selling two-wheelers and three-wheelers, and wholesale them.

But now the price of two-wheelers and three-wheelers has dropped, from the original two hundred taels per unit to one hundred and twenty taels.

Just because there are people imitating it in the capital, if we don't lower the price, our business will soon be out of business.

Fortunately, we have a metal smelting plant at home, which has reduced the cost of flywheels and gear bearings a lot. We can make do with two and one, and the profit is still considerable.

"Chang'an, actually your father signed the engagement for you because of one thing."

Ms. Jiang thought about it and told the truth: "Then Qin Kang actually begged the Queen to take you as his concubine. If the official who passed the decree was not familiar with Lu Jingzhou, he would have brought the Queen's decree to your father."
