C11 (1/2)

At the entrance of the village was a Lee Family. Within the courtyard, the newly harvested wheat was exposed. Lee Xiuhsing, who wore a bamboo veil over her face, was carrying a basket on her back as she fed the small geese in the circle.

Five white geese circled around her, causing Second Elder Brother Zhu, who suddenly arrived at the door, to be stunned. He saw five white geese flapping their wings, stretching their long necks close to the ground and squawking as they chased after him.

”Sis Yuvniang, save me!”

With a loud shout, Second Elder Brother Zhu started to run and the 5 white geese chased closely after him. If it was a dog, it would have just grabbed the farm tools in the yard and started beating it. However, this was the two siblings' pet, and it was also the family's economic support.

In the past two months, Second Elder Brother Zhu had not found out that Lee Xiuhsing often went out disguised as Lee Yuvniang. Lee Xiuhsing was not in a hurry. She stood on the spot and watched Second Elder Brother Zhu running in the yard. She smiled and said, ”Isn't Second Brother a runner? Then run more.”

He wanted to cry but had no tears. Running normally was a form of exercise, so how could he compare with now? Being caught up to and made this goose take a bite, it was very painful. The first time I saw these geese, they were so cute and white.

After running two laps to gain some distance, Second Elder Brother Zhu ran to the side of the goose and said anxiously, ”Sis Yuvniang, Erlang Shen has something important to do …”

Speaking of which, Second Elder Brother Zhu stuffed the two gift boxes in his hands into Lee Xiuhsing's arms and started running again.

”Second brother, wait a moment. This sister will help you get out of this predicament.”

Lee Xiuhsing lowered her head and smiled. She picked up the willow stick beside the ring and wrapped it around a goose's neck before pulling it into the ring. Second Elder Brother Zhu ran two more laps before Lee Xiuhsing put away the five white geese.

Breathing heavily, Second Elder Brother Zhu glanced at the 23 geese still changing their feathers and said with the corner of his eyes, ”Sis Yuvniang, when these geese grow up, Erlang won't even dare to come and look for elder sister.”

”I'll sell it when it's autumn, but it won't be easy for Second Brother to sell it in the future.”

Second Elder Brother Zhu had been coming to Lee Family every day for the past few days. She was a little reluctant to part with this little brother of hers. Second Elder Brother Zhu could tell jokes, cook food, and even put out ropes to hunt rabbits. More importantly, he didn't despise the two sisters' big feet as others did.

She also knew that Zhu Yisu had been instructed by the Son of Heaven in Tiancheng to guard the Xinping Fort. Although the Daizhou was within the Taiyuan Town, it was a thousand miles away from the Datong Town. Naturally, he also knew that the Xinping Fort was not a good place, and that it was located at the first line of Border Town.

The Daizhou was located in the northeast corner of the Taiyuan Town, and the Xinping Fort was located in the northeast corner of the Datong Town.

As for the relationship between a man and a woman Second Elder Brother Zhu had imagined, unfortunately, even the Lee Family sisters didn't have such thoughts. In the past, Second Elder Brother Zhu had to go to the sect sooner or later. Therefore, it was useless to think about it. Furthermore, Second Elder Brother Zhu was 45 years younger than them, so it was impossible for them to think about Second Elder Brother Zhu since his body hadn't grown yet.

If Second Elder Brother Zhu was a bit older and visited so many times, even the Lee Family Elder would not be happy.

Second Elder Brother Zhu could hear the worry in the girl's voice. He felt warm inside and when he saw no one in the yard, he said, ”Sis Yuvniang, my family has become a military household.”

Seeing that she still had no intention of reacting, Second Elder Brother Zhu lowered his voice and said to Lee Xiuhsing: ”In the future, Father and I will be going to Xinping Fort to take part in this mission. I would like to invite Father to come to elder sister's house to apply.”

”What?”

Lee Xiuhsing thought she misheard, but her heart was in turmoil. She looked at Second Elder Brother Zhu again and saw that he was looking at her with bright eyes. She could not help but feel sad.

At the age of fourteen, she met a palace beauty pageant and was unhappily selected. But because he had a pair of big feet, he was mocked by the other beautiful girls. He had yet to leave the boundaries of Daizhou, and was lucky enough that he did not die.

He had been hiding at home all day, pretending to be his sister Lee Yuvniang when he went out.

”Erlang likes Sis Yuvniang and wants to stay with her forever.”

”Bullsh * t …”

Lee Xiuhsing turned and ran with the two boxes of gifts in her arms.

Second Elder Brother Zhu touched his face where he was. It was a handsome face with no trace of evil on it. Why did it seem like Lee Yuvniang was unwilling?

Is it that hard to marry a wife you like?

Knowing that there was some difficulty, his father held the power to decide whether he wanted to bring up the matter or not. In the end, the power to decide was in the hands of the old man Lee Family. Neither he nor Lee Yuvniang had the power to decide.

With a bitter face, he decided to head to the Xinping Fort this time. Who knew when he would be able to return? It could be that her bad luck had passed and she was struck by Horse Bandit like a pan. She might have already become someone else's wife when she returned after two years of good luck.

The Lee Family sisters had given him a good impression. With a good figure and no legs, this kind of girl was hard to find.

The real Lee Yuvniang was woken up by her sister. Lee Xiuhsing blushed and whispered in her ear, ”Sister's Second Elder Brother Zhu is here. He asked Zhu husband to come and propose marriage. You see, in order to please his sister, Second Elder Brother Zhu has sent a piece of cloud weave sangyong cotton cloth and a box of Minzhou Sesame. ”

Lee Yuvniang's face reddened, but she asked, ”What if little sister leaves?”

Now, the two sisters appeared in front of everyone with their open identities. If she were to marry out of the family, her sister Lee Xiuhsing would only be able to stay at home forever. If it was exposed, Lee Family would be the crime of deceiving the monarch, and the whole family would be expropriated.

Lee Xiuhsing sighed in her heart. As expected, her little sister's heart was moved by that little girl. She didn't even try to cover up her feelings. However, she deliberately asked: ”Let's not talk about this older sister first. I need to think clearly, Zhu husband's family is currently in the army, and they are still at the Xinping Fort border.”
