Chapter 685: Robbery?
Plop, Xiao Jiang Erlang dropped his chopsticks: "It's my brother's voice."

His brother is back!
Woo woo woo, he can forget about having a good meal today.

Qin Xiaomi glanced at him and said, "It's your brother who's back, not a spy. Are you so scared that you drop your chopsticks? If you're so cowardly, don't say you're from the Qin, Jiang, Xu, or Qiao families when you go out."

We must not ruin our hard-earned reputation as a tough guy!
Grandma Qin didn't have time to scold her. She ran to the door and opened it.

As soon as the door opened, he looked up and saw a young man wearing a fur coat and with a smile as bright as snow: "Da Lang, it's really our Da Lang who is back. Oh, it's cold outside, come in quickly!"

Grandma Qin pulled Jiang Dalang into the house.

Aunt Qin had already stood up and went out to look in the direction of the street. Seeing a vast expanse of white with no one in sight, she hurried into the shop and asked, "Da Lang, where is your Uncle Qin?"

Everyone in the family looked at him.

Jiang Dalang said, "I am the only one who has arrived home today. My second uncle and his soldiers will arrive a day later."

Knowing that Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin were worried, he added, "The mountain people have experience walking on snowy roads, so Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin don't have to worry."

"The mountain people and soldiers followed you out of the mountains?!" Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin were shocked.

Jiang Dalang nodded: "Well, they are going to spend the New Year here. I came back early to discuss with my family whether to place them in the village or in the town?"

"Are there many people?" Grandpa Qin asked.

Jiang Dalang: "There are forty people. Thirty are soldiers, two are old mountain doctors, the remaining four are the old mountain doctor's apprentices, and the other four heard that we are collecting medicinal materials here, so they came out of the mountains to check the situation on behalf of the mountain people."

Jiang Dalang described the situation of these people in detail.

What surprised Qin Xiaomi was that: "There were actually two women in charge."

One of the mountain doctors was also a woman.

The people inside this mountain are much more open-minded than those outside!
When Jiang Dalang smiled, he knew that Susu would be happy about it.

Finally, he dared to look at her openly: "Well, the status of women in the mountains is higher than that outside the mountains. In the Mountain People's Alliance, half of the leaders are women."

After not seeing each other for more than four months, Susu's complexion looked rosier and healthier, and she even had a lazy and contented air about her. Before he knocked on the door, he could still hear her perfunctory words to her family.

Her tone was full of recklessness, which showed that she had been doing well recently.

And what he wanted was for her to live a good life.

"Then arrange the female mountain people in the town, and the male mountain people in the village." Qin Xiaomi suggested, and after thinking for a while, he said: "If the male mountain people want to live in the town, arrange them to the Xue family warehouse. In short, they cannot be arranged to the houses and shops on Xinda Street."

What if there are one or two weirdos among them, how can her family celebrate the New Year happily?
She added, "Jiang Dalang, you brought them back, so you have to pay for their food and clothing. Don't expect my family to pay. There are dozens of people, and each of them needs a thick quilt, which will cost dozens of taels of silver. My family will not be taken advantage of!"

Ha, Jiang Dalang was amused by her fussing look and nodded, "It should be my family who pays for their resettlement."

Seeing her lively appearance, all his tiredness disappeared.

Grandma Qin glared at Qin Xiaomi and said, "Who are you calling Jiang Dalang? That's rude. Call me Brother Dalang!"

He felt relieved again and said, "It's good to settle the male mountain people in the village or in the Xue family's warehouse. It's safe."

It’s not that Grandma Qin has a mean heart, but since there is a girl in the family, it’s always better to be cautious.

Grandpa Qin also nodded: "Well, let's arrange it this way."

Jiang Dalang: "Thank you, Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin."

Then he apologized, "I am the one who caused trouble to my family."

Grandpa Qin waved his hand and said, "The mountain folks helped the Wei army to kill the spies, and they will help the Wei army to defend the mountains in the future. We should make friends with them. If we want to make friends with the mountain folks, we have to have more contact with them. It's not a big deal."

The power of the mountain people is enormous, and it is better to make friends with them than to make enemies with them.

Moreover, Dalang was a man of great potential, and the mountain people he could bring out must have good character. While they were talking, Jiang Erlang had quietly taken the horse that Jiang Dalang had ridden back and tied it up at the Jiang family's shop, and had returned to the Qin family and closed the door of the shop.

But he didn't say anything, but stood aside, pretending to be invisible.

Jiang Dalang glanced at him and said, "Erlang, sit down and eat."

"Hey!" Little Jiang Erlang responded and grinned at Jiang Dalang: "Welcome home, big brother."

I am really afraid of Big Brother, and I am also sincere in welcoming him home.

Jiang Dalang: "..."

He had been away from home for more than four months, and his stepbrother's stupidity had resurfaced.

However, it made him feel the pure brotherhood, which was much better than the brothers who deserved to be skinned alive in his previous life!

"Eat quickly. Dalang, the mutton we prepared specially for you is cooked. Come on, eat more. Mutton is good for your health." Grandma Qin specially asked Aunt Xu to cut five plates of mutton for Dalang Jiang to eat as much as she could: "Dalang, eat more. We've already had mutton once during the winter solstice."

"Okay." Jiang Dalang smiled, picked up the chopsticks and ate the mutton hotpot... He didn't eat as fast as Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin.

Qin Xiaomi said jealously: "Grandpa and grandma, you guys should eat too. And Dalang is not suitable to eat too much mutton, it is not good for the wound."

"Ah? Dalang, have your wounds healed? If not, don't eat!" Grandma Qin was anxious and said to Qin Xiaomi, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"..." Qin Xiaomi said, "Grandma, let's calculate the days. His wound should have healed. It would be better for him to eat mutton. Only fresh and large wounds should be avoided."

Grandma Qin glared at her: "Then what do you mean by not eating too much mutton?"

Jiang Dalang couldn't bear to see Grandma Qin talking about Qin Xiaomi, so he hurriedly said, "Grandma Qin, Xiaomi is reminding me that I just came back from the snow, so it's really not suitable for me to eat too much mutton. It's better to eat in moderation to avoid inducing a cold and high fever."

Grandma Qin: "Da Lang is right. Let's eat less mutton today. We can have a good mutton hotpot in a few days."

Qin Xiaomi was so jealous that her chopsticks almost broke. Grandma, who is your grandson? !
Little Jiang Erlang lowered his head and ate silently... Big brother is scary, but sister Xiaomi is even scarier!

Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin were particularly happy because Jiang Dalang had returned home. Seeing that Jiang Dalang looked tired, they urged the family to eat faster: "Eat quickly so that Dalang can rest earlier."

Qin Xiaomi didn't even want to complain about her grandparents anymore, she just squinted at Jiang Dalang... Is this guy a reincarnated fox spirit? How did he charm her grandparents like this?

Jiang Dalang was indeed tired. After finishing his meal, he did not stay for long. He got up and went back to the Jiang family's shop. After taking a quick shower, he went back to his room to sleep.

Qin Xiaomi was taught by Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin: "Be nice to Dalang, and don't deliberately target Dalang. Dalang finally came home."

After muttering for half an hour, Qin Xiaomi was shocked and looked at Grandpa Qin: "Forget about grandma, but I didn't expect you to be so talkative."

He raised his hand again and said, "I accept. I will listen to you two elders and make sure Jiang Dalang has a good New Year. I will never deliberately target him. After all, it's the New Year."

Grandma Qin wanted to pinch her: "Call me Brother Dalang. If you keep being so disrespectful, I will be really angry."

"Yes, I was wrong, I will change." Qin Xiaomi made such promises before being let go by Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin. She went back to the house... and looked at the sketchbook.

She provided the idea for the picture book, which was written by Xiaobai, and is called "One or Two Stories of Retribution in This Life".

The title of the book is quite decent, but the content is like a galloping wild horse.

There was a story about a scumbag who became arrogant as soon as he passed the imperial examination and wanted to divorce his wife. As a result, he swapped bodies with his wife and was beaten up by his supposedly good relatives.

It makes men want to destroy Xiaobai's entire clan, and women want to burn incense to Xiaobai. It is quite attractive.

Qin Xiaomi stayed up late before going to bed.

I was half asleep when I heard a slight sound...

Qin Xiaomi was startled. Is this a thief?
