Chapter 133: Returning Home
Han Lian looked at Du Zhongxiao who came over, and the daughter who was holding the child, and tears flowed down unconsciously: "Ahhh After more than two years of walking, my mother and I thought day and night, you don't know how much suffering you have suffered! ”
As he spoke, he stepped forward to look at his grandson. Looking left and right, it is very pleasing to the eye.
Miss Han smiled and said: "The eunuch is outside, everything is up to people, won't this come back?" The next eldest man went to Hedong Road, but the distance was too far and the child was small, so I didn't follow. In the past few years, I have been at home with the second elder, saving you from worrying. ”
"Okay, okay, that's for the best." Han Lian nodded repeatedly. Thinking of this, my daughter and son-in-law will be separated for several years, and I can't help but feel sad. "Pity you two, you two will be separated for years."
Du Zhongxiao stepped forward to greet him, and was greeted by his family and entered the gate.
At this time, it was hot, tables and chairs were placed under the flowers and trees in the yard, and the newly picked melons and fruits were extraordinarily watery, catching the wind for Du Zhongxiao and others.
One by one, Han Lian said: "A few days ago, you said that you wanted to buy some wasteland and reclaim land in the county, so I asked someone to buy this area. Within a few miles of the surrounding area, because of the low-lying terrain, there were no crops, and there were no families except a few sheep herders. It doesn't cost much here, and it's not far from the Ying River, so it's a good place to reclaim the fields. ”
Du Zhongxiao said: "We also saw when we came, the terrain here is flat, and there are a few small streams passing by, so it is really a good place." ”
Over there, Tao Qiqi and the others carried the salute with Zhuang Ke and came over to salute Han Lian and the others.
Han Lian saw it and nodded again and again: "They are all big men, they must do a good job, good, good, good!" ”
Du Zhongxiao said with a smile: "Uncle Yue is thinking badly, these people are not Zhuangke, they are all my subordinates when I was in Yongcheng County, and each of them has their own unique skills." They are needed for this trip and state, so they are brought together. ”
Han Lian sighed: "It's a pity, I thought you brought the supervisor and the guest in Zhuangzi. If there is no one, it is a bit unsafe to hire someone from outside. I've never sold wine, I don't know how to farm, how can this huge Zhuangzi be good? ”
Du Xundao: "What do you care about!" My family cultivates and reads heirlooms, in addition to reading, that is, they can farm. After a few months in Yongcheng, I saw how he cultivated the land and how he did business. As long as it is done in the same way, it must be a good foundation. ”
Everyone talked and laughed, and after a while, the wine and food came up, and they had a happy meal.
After the meal, Du Zhongxiao and Han Yueniang took the children to talk to their parents and Han Lian and his wife, and the rest of them sat in the shade of the courtyard and chatted.
Lu Saisai whispered to Qu Wuniang beside him: "The place here is big, the scenery is good, and the Du family sells wine in Sanzhou, and he is rich." It's better for us to live here, so why follow the officials to the land of the state and suffer. ”
Qu Wuniang said: "According to the official's intentions, Chen Qin and Luo Jing will follow them to the state, where they can be used." Those two are gone, how can we stay in the Central Plains? Husband and wife should always stay together. ”
Lucesai said indifferently: "Madame doesn't follow the officials to that bitter cold place, what is there to separate." These officials, when they arrive in the place, they have only been working for three or two years, and they will come back in a blink of an eye, so why care. ”
Qu Wuniang shook her head helplessly and persuaded Lu Saisai in a low voice. This sister of her own, when she says that she eats, drinks and has fun, she is full of joy, and when she says that she wants to endure hardship, she is uncomfortable, and there is no way to take her for her own problems.
Over there, Tao Seventeen and Thirteen Lang were extraordinarily curious about this new residence, so they found a Zhuang guest to take with them, and walked around.
Chen Qin and Luo Jing sat in the shade of a tree and gossiped.
Looking at the surrounding scenery, Chen Qin sighed: "If you live here and don't have to run around from now on, how good it would be!" ”
Luo Jing smiled: "How can my brother have such a mind? I went to Hedong, which was a bitter cold place, and I heard that there were many cattle, sheep and horses, and it was the time for my brother to show his skills. If I stay in the village, the officials may not say anything, but my brother will never do it. ”
Chen Qin's heart moved: "When you say this, I think about it." You are the best at managing accounts, there is no shortage of this kind of talent in the yamen, and there are not many places. Why don't we tell the officials, let you stay in the village, and help the old staff to build this village. By the way, I will buy a property for you and me, and when you don't have to travel, you will come here to enjoy your old age. ”
Luo Jing smiled: "I don't have anything, as long as the official agrees, it's okay to stay here." I'm afraid that your family will be upset when you hear it. I am enjoying happiness in the hinterland, but you go to the border to eat sand, where will she agree? ”
Chen Qin waved his hand and said magnificently: "What does the woman's family know, why bother with her!" If I go to the northwest, maybe I can fight for a background, but it will be different when I come back. Women have long hair and short knowledge, where do you know this! ”
Luo Jing just laughed. Lu Saisai is not Qu Wuniang, there are many tricks to deal with men, and Chen Qin can't resist it. Living at home, Qu Wuniang takes care of the house in an orderly manner, and Luo Jing doesn't have to worry about family affairs at all. Lu Saisai is different, he doesn't support the oil bottle at home, and Chen Qin is busy working alone inside and out. It's just that Chen Qin has a good face and holds on in front of outsiders.
In the living room, Du Zhongxiao accompanied his father and Han Lian to talk, and his mother and mother-in-law teased the children on the side.
asked Du Zhongxiao about his stay in Yongcheng, Han Lian said: "The family has been selling wine for a few years, accumulating some money, and Da Lang has been promoted step by step, and it is time for the family to buy some properties." Selling wine is the grace of the imperial court, and when I talked to officials in the state and county in the past two years, I always felt that this matter was not stable. When these officials saw that our family was making money, they all said that it would be good to enjoy the grace of the court for a few years, and they would slowly take it back. The construction of Zhuangzi is different, the land is bought by ourselves, as long as we pay taxes and grain, who will forcibly expropriate our land? It was a few months ago that Dalang said that he wanted to buy land at home, and I agreed with one hundred people. It's just a pity that both of us are small families, and there is no reliable person to take care of them, so I am a little worried. ”
Du Xun nodded: "I'm also worried about this." Although I have been farming since I was a child, I am a small family and only cultivate so many acres of land. Buying a village is not a matter of thirty or fifty acres, it is thousands or hundreds of acres, dozens of villagers, there is no reliable person to manage it, but I am afraid that it will not be able to do well. ”
Du Zhongxiao didn't care: "Daddy has been in Yongcheng County for a few months, and he has also seen the camp and field affairs, so he just learns from it." Not to mention, I wrote a booklet on how the camp worked. All kinds of farm tools are also clearly listed, and they can't be built at home, and it's convenient to buy them from Yongcheng. I don't think it's difficult to do this, as long as Daddy puts more thought into it, he will definitely be able to do it. ”
Du Xun shook his head repeatedly. I have seen the camp and field affairs yamen, where there are dozens of public officials, not to mention all kinds of errands, where is the thing that can be done by looking at the booklet. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "Da Lang, otherwise, one or two people will be left in the entourage around you." Wait until it's okay here, and then let them go to Bingzhou to find you. - I think that Luo Jing is good, he is honest, down-to-earth, and he is doing things in the camp, so he will definitely be able to manage Zhuangzi well. When you go to Hedong Road, you are a state to sign the judgment, how many people are in charge? Not bad for this one! ”
Han Lian was overjoyed when he heard this: "Since there is such a person, why don't you stay!" There will be no shortage of people in the yamen, but there is a shortage in our family. Da Lang is an official outside, don't just think about doing things for the court, but also think about your family. ”
Seeing that the two old men said this, Du Zhongxiao couldn't refuse, so he had to say, "I have to ask Luo Jing about this matter." It's a family matter, and you have to ask him to agree. Although he said that he had been with me for a long time, who knows what he thought in his heart? ”
