    The guests have all left, and everything has returned to calm.  Gu Yezhou came to their bridal chamber, where a pair of red wedding candles were shining brightly. Ning Sanmei was sitting on the edge of the bed wearing a hijab. Gu Yezhou gently opened it, revealing her extremely beautiful face.  But there were still tears in his eyes.  Gu Yezhou hugged her lovingly and kissed her tenderly, which gradually made the sadness on her pretty face lessen.  They brought the acacia wine and drank it, blew out the red candles, undressed and put on the wedding bed, put down the silk tent, covered themselves with red mandarin duck quilts, and went to Wushan to have a wedding together.  Ning Sanmei is new to human affairs and doesn¡¯t know how to have sex.  Gu Yezhou was already experienced, and he taught her how to do it gently and lingeringly.  Ning Sanmei Bingxue is smart, and she can learn how to do it as soon as she is taught. She soon becomes red dots, temporarily forgetting her sorrow, and follows Gu Yezhou into the gentle countryside with infinite shyness.  A night of endless sadness and affection until dawn.  The next day, Chief Zeng held a funeral for his son, so early in the morning he removed all the red robes and decorations outside Gu Yezhou's house, leaving only the red robes inside their house.  Zeng Feisong was already engaged to the wife of the Qi family. Seeing that she was getting a little better, he also told Chief Zeng about the matter, and Chief Zeng agreed that he and Gu Yezhou would get married on the same day.  Because the wife of the Qi family remarried and had no family, she didn¡¯t make any big arrangements. She just invited a matchmaker to make the fortune, presided over the ceremony of worshiping heaven and earth, and only invited people from the escort agency to have a banquet, and they were considered married.  .  Zeng Feisong never thought that one day he would get married one day while wandering around the world. He was very happy and cared for the wife of the Qi family very much.  Because the wife of the Qi family has not recovered from her serious injuries.  So the two did not consummate their marriage.  We just lived together.  ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª New Year¡¯s Eve is finally here.  However, the blizzard has been falling for more than ten days, but it has no intention of stopping. The snow on the ground has covered the windows. Except for the main streets where the yamen organized manpower to clean up the snow, the rest of the places have been blocked by heavy snow.  .  Especially in small alleys, residents cannot get out through the main door and can only exit through a skylight on the roof.  Then I stepped through the thigh-deep snow to go out to buy food.  And because of the blizzards that lasted for more than ten days and the Chinese New Year, the price of food continued to skyrocket, reaching five times what it was at the beginning of the snow!  Almost all the shops are closed, and the flea market is even more lively. Because of the heavy snowfall for days, many residents in the city have run out of food and can only sell valuable things at home in exchange for food.  Therefore, the number of residents selling things at the flea market is several times more than before.  The prices of things are also cheaper.  Buyers who go to the flea market to buy something.  In addition to the merchants who were doing business, there were also children from rich families like Long Biao.  These days.  He had secretly exchanged the only two months of food storage at home for many valuable antiques.  Mr. Long was a little worried about this, but he saw that the things his son bought were all very cheap treasures and very cost-effective, so he didn't stop him.  Ma Mazi's family was not very interested in this. He sold most of the grain and bought the Mo family's fields, leaving only five months of food rations. However, he judged that the heavy snow would stop soon, so  Sometimes food prices would fall and farmland prices would skyrocket. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he would buy a lot of farmland, but he had no money left. All he had was five months' rations. In order to buy the farmland, Ma Hempzi sold four  With a monthly ration of food, he bought a large amount of land.  Since he could sell more grain, he bought much more land than Mr. Long's family, and became the person with the most land in the village. He was very satisfied.  As a result, Ma Mazi¡¯s family and Mrs. Long¡¯s family only had one month¡¯s food rations left.  But they were not too nervous because they had good relations with the rice merchants in the city and had no worries about borrowing grain.  The victims of the city rioted, many people were killed, and everything was gloomy and gloomy.  New Year's Eve is here, and except for a few wealthy families, the rest of the families are worried about how to spend their days in the future, so they have no intention of celebrating the New Year. The city is not lively and lifeless.  And because there is a funeral to be held in the escort agency, this year will not be able to go through.  On the first day of the Lunar New Year, a big customer came to the Escort Bureau. He was Mr. Fan, the county government administrator who had retired and returned to his hometown a year ago. He wanted to take his family back to his hometown of Lingtai County.  Mr. Fan¡¯s hometown is not far away, only three days away.  However, the road was difficult to walk due to the heavy snowfall for days.  Because there was banditry in their area, he was worried about being robbed by bandits on the road, so he found the only escort agency in the city.  Zeng Biao was lying on the bed with a serious head injury, but when he heard that Mr. Fan, the former chief registrar, was here and wanted to take care of the escort, he forced himself to get up and meet him.  Mr. Fan was shocked when he saw Escort Zeng slowly walking in, supported by his daughter, and asked hurriedly: "What's going on, Chief Escort?"The matter of serious injury was kept secret by the Escort Agency, so few people knew about it, including the original head of the agency, Mr. Fan.  Mr. Zeng pretended to be relaxed and said with a smile: "It's okay. It's snowy and the road is slippery. I fell a little. I'll be fine in a few days." Mr. Fan felt relieved and said, "I want to ask the chief escort to escort my family."  I want to go back to my hometown to avoid being robbed by bandits on the way. If the chief escort is ill, it will be troublesome. It would be fine if he is fine." When Commander Zeng heard this, he could not help but frown slightly and said in a low voice, "Mr. Fan.  Bandits have been rampant recently and have sneaked into the county twice in a row to loot, burn and kill. It is really dangerous to leave the county and return home at this time. Why not wait until the officers and soldiers wipe out the bandits before going back? " Mr. Fan smiled bitterly: "Me too.  I know this, but my father is already over 80 years old. He wrote a letter the day before yesterday saying that he fell ill. I am afraid that he does not have much time left, so he wants to take his wife and children back as soon as possible to fulfill his filial piety. Besides, the main military forces of the imperial court are now empty.  It was used to deal with the Huangchao rebels, and they had no ability to mobilize troops to suppress the bandits. That's why the bandits were so rampant. Now it seems that the imperial court will not be able to destroy the Huangchao rebels in a short time.  If I keep waiting like this, I don't know how long it will take, and I don't know if my father can wait until I go back" At this point, Mr. Fan's eyes were red, and he lowered his head and sighed.  The escort leader Zeng said: "Master Fan's filial piety is really admirable. However, the bandits are indeed powerful, and it is really dangerous to go out now." "I also know that the commander-in-chief is in a dilemma, so let's go ahead with it.  How about twice the escort gift? " Originally, this kind of bodyguard that targets people is much more expensive than the one that targets goods, especially for officials and officials. Now, Mr. Fan has come out.  The double price made Zeng Biaotou unsatisfied.  When Mr. Fan saw Mr. Zeng lowering his head and thinking deeply, he hurriedly raised his hand and said: "Chief Mr. Mr., we are also old friends. In the past, when the yamen transported tribute and tax money, it was always the old man who came forward and entrusted your escort agency with a lot of money to escort us. Our many years of friendship, this  I asked the chief escort to show my face by escorting our family back to our hometown. I am very grateful!" When Mr. Fan was the chief registrar of this county, when the yamen needed to pay taxes, money, offerings, etc., he would do it.  It was Chief Zeng who paid a high price for the commission, and the company made a lot of money. The relationship between the two parties was still very harmonious. Now that Mr. Fan had spoken about it, Chief Zeng couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to nod.  He said: "Okay, in that case, we will take this escort." Mr. Fan was overjoyed and quickly stood up and bowed to express his thanks: "How about we set off early tomorrow morning?" "No, we'd better travel at night and rest during the day.  "This way we can avoid the eyes and ears of the bandits, so we can set off tomorrow evening when the city gate is about to close."  One thing." "Chief escort, please tell me." "Bandits are rampant, so we must be as careful as possible to avoid them. The less things we have, the better." "No problem.  , We try to bring as little stuff as possible, and we will leave. We will keep the gold and silver and other personal belongings before transporting them away. " After discussing it, both parties signed the escort contract, and Mr. Fan paid all the escort gifts in one go.  He said goodbye and left.  Headguard Zeng asked his daughter Zeng Lingmei to escort Mr. Fan out, while she sat in a chair in a daze.  Zeng Lingmei returned to the living room. Seeing her father like this, she whispered: "Dad! Why did you agree? Your injury has not healed yet. If you really encounter a mountain bandit, how will you deal with it? The mountain god has already said that he will bloodbath our escort agency.  , Aren¡¯t we putting a sheep in the tiger¡¯s mouth?¡± The escort leader Zeng sighed and said: ¡°If it were someone else, my father would not accept the escort, but it is Old Man Fan who is personally asking for the escort, so I have to agree.  Yes, we have benefited a lot from him over the years. Now that someone wants something from us, how can we justify it if we refuse? " "But your body?" "It doesn't matter," Chief Zeng said in a deep voice.  "I have just thought about it. This time, we will use at most five escorts. There are few people and small targets. We should dress up in disguise to avoid the eyes and ears. We will travel day and night, avoid the main roads and only take the small roads. The bandits should not be able to  "I found it." Zeng Lingmei sighed: "In this case, let my daughter lead the team. Dad will stay at home to recover."  "Sir, please stay at home." "Dad, you are injured. If the Mountain Gods and others come, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with it. It's better to ask Mr. Gu to come with him. He is very good at martial arts."Gu Yezhou fought against the bandits twice, but Chief Zeng was not present. When he arrived the next time, the fight was almost over.  Therefore, he did not see Gu Yezhou's real martial arts. In his impression, he only had the boxing routine he performed when he saw Gu Yezhou for the first time, and the impression he left was that it was a useless showmanship.  As for Gu Yezhou's pistol, he only heard from his daughter that the hidden weapon like Gu Yezhou was very sharp, and it was with this that he wounded the mountain god and killed the third master of the mountain bandit.  But he didn't see it either, so he wasn't too impressed.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
