Chapter 262： beg

   Qi Xiuyuan smiled and asked, "What are you worried about?"

Rong Xuan glanced at him and said, "You are kind."

"The Mu family has its own secrets, as long as it's harmless to us, there's no need to seek them out," Qi Xiuyuan looked down at Mu Yangling and the three of them, and said, "Mu Yang has a good mind, and Haoran and Zijin play with her, too. Take it easy."

"Yes, Haoran has grown a lot in the past two years, and Zijin has not continued to grow crooked, so you plan to continue ignoring the letters from your father and Lord Fan, and keep the two here?"

Qi Xiuyuan's eyes froze, "Do you want them to go back to be bullied? Do nothing to cause trouble every day? Stay here..." Thinking of his younger brother's dedication to the military camp and the recovery of his homeland, and that Zijin also has his own direction, Qi Xiuyuan couldn't help laughing out loud. , these two children have acted like adults in the past two years.

Although there is a suspicion that the seedlings are encouraged, Qi Xiuyuan still decides to keep the two here. He doesn't want to see two playboys when he returns to the capital.

Everyone slept in the tent for the night. Early the next morning, Qi Xiuyuan asked people to pack their things. They were going into the mountains to hunt.

Since    was used as an excuse for hunting, he had to come up with some prey.

Mu Yangling was in charge of leading the way. When they left the mountain in the afternoon, everyone had nothing on their hands. Mu Yangling dragged a deer on a temporary pallet, and carried a wild boar on his shoulders. Qi Xiuyuan and Qi Haoran also carried a deer. The only deer, even Rong Xuan and Fan Zijin had no time in their hands, they were all carrying some small prey.

After sending the things back to Mu's house, Qi Xiuyuan laughed and said cheerfully: "Sure enough, hunting has never been so pleasant before, no wonder Haoran always asks you to hunt, A Ling, next time you have time, Brother Qi will return. Come and hunt, how about you show us the way?"

Mu Yangling smiled and nodded.

"Okay, Feibai, go and call someone to fetch the prey back." Qi Xiuyuan only chose a deer and some small prey, leaving the rest to Mu Yangling.

Mu Yangling waved his hand and said: "Brother Qi, you don't have to leave me so many things, my family can't eat all the prey, and I have to sell it. You might as well take a little more and give it to the soldiers. it is good."

As he said that, he stepped forward and picked a fat and tender deer and carried it aside, and then went up to select some small prey, all of which were tender, "Okay, if Big Brother Qi doesn't dislike me, I'll stay. These, take the rest back."

Qi Xiuyuan saw that she chose the food she liked at home. He was not polite to him, but he felt at ease, so he nodded and smiled and said, "Then I will take your favor, and I will take the rest back."

Shu Wanniang had already cooked some dishes while they were talking, "Children, come and eat, I made bone soup in the morning, and now I've been simmering it on a slow fire, drink a bowl to warm up."

"It's hard work, auntie." As soon as everyone was about to enter the house, someone outside shouted eagerly: "Brother Haoran, brother Haoran, you are finally back."

Everyone turned their heads and went out to see, and saw Song Zhi with a small beard running in in a hurry with a follower.

Mu Yangling and Fan Zijin couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud with a "puchi".

Qi Xiuyuan also flashed a smile in his eyes, and then he cupped his hands with a stern face: "It turned out to be the Song county magistrate, what is the Song magistrate looking for with his younger brother?"

Song Zhi's eyes glued to Qi Haoran's body only to see Qi Xiuyuan and the others. He felt a little embarrassed, but it only flashed by and he smiled shyly: "Big brother is here too, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Qi Haoran twitched the corners of his mouth, the elder brother is eight or nine years younger than him, how could he be so embarrassed?

"Brother Song, what are you looking for from me?"

Song Zhi let out a breath and was about to speak after pondering for a while when Xiuhong came out of the room and said, "Brother Qi, my cousin asked you to come in, it's cold outside, what can I say in the room? It's all warmed up for you."

Song Zhi's long-awaited emotions dissipated immediately, Qi Xiuyuan and Rong Xuan couldn't help but feel amused, "Song County magistrate, if you have anything to do, let's talk about it in the room." The two took the lead in entering the room.

The table in the main room was already set, everyone sat down, but Mu Yangling was about to turn around and go to the kitchen, Qi Xiuyuan swept his eyes and saw that Shu Wanniang was not in the main room, he knew that she avoided suspicion, so he stopped Mu Yangling, " Ah Ling, sit down and eat too, you've been busy for a long time."

Mu Yangling just smiled, "You guys eat, I'll go clean up the prey, my mother in the kitchen must have left me some delicious food, so I won't **** it from you."

Qi Xiuyuan didn't force it.

Mu Yangling called Feibai and Yanmo out and said, "Go to the kitchen to eat."

"Miss Mu, tell us what you want to do."

"Alright, alright, this is my house, and I'll still be starving myself? Hurry up and eat, and serve your masters after eating."

Feibai and Yanmo responded with a smile and turned away.

Mu Yangling picked up the prey and listened to the voices in the house.

Song Zhi had been waiting for Qi Haoran for a day. As soon as they entered the mountain on the front foot, he came on the back foot. He asked Qi Haoran to ask for corn seeds.

As soon as the news about the corn came out, he was also agitated, but then the chamberlain took away several carts of seeds, and later the Shen family took another batch, plus people from Xingyuan Mansion and other places were taken away from Xiying. After a while, he estimated in his own heart that the seeds left behind would be enough for them to plant in Xiying, so he stopped thinking about asking for seeds.

He won't plant next year, and the year after that, he just has to wait another year.

But this year, there has been no snow since the beginning of winter, and with the previous drought, Song Zhi dared not have any luck.

He can ignore other places, but the people of Mingshui County recognize him as a parent official, so they can only ask Qi Haoran for seeds with a shy face.

Hearing this, Qi Haoran looked at the elder brother, he knew that the elder brother intended to leave a seed for the people, not only the people of Xingzhou Prefecture, but also the people of Hanzhong Prefecture, but because the magistrates of the counties and the prefects of the prefectures did not find them When he came to the door, Qi Xiuyuan didn't even mention it.

At this moment, Qi Haoran suddenly understood that the eldest brother did not want to give them the seeds for nothing, so they had to pay some price.

Qi Haoran didn't know what the eldest brother wanted, so he pushed the matter onto the eldest brother and said, "Brother Song, the seeds are all in the hands of my eldest brother, you better beg my eldest brother," and then Qi Xiu smiled shyly. Yuandao: "Big Brother, Big Brother Song and I are on good terms. You helped me a lot when I first moved to Mingshui County, so can you help him?"

Qi Xiuyuan pretended to stare at his younger brother, Song Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "That's what my younger brother should do. Brother Haoran and I have hit it off and have similar interests. If we can help, we will help."
