Chapter 22: Do what you want to do

Great Xia, Guizhou, Fengcheng.

At this time, the whole huge Fengcheng faintly revealed a joy for the rest of his life after the catastrophe, and a warm carnival was being held in the streets and alleys, and good wine and meat were put on the table.

Due to the special geographical location of Fengcheng, most of the ancestors were the pioneers of Hexu Road, so the folk customs are a little different from other places in the southeast of Great Xia, but close to the northwest, bold, happy, and addicted to alcohol.

Today, the shopkeeper of the Chamber of Commerce in Fengcheng can be said to be very lively, it is said that the son of the original notoriety has made a splash this time, and has made great contributions in the battle against the beast tide.

Wang Shao, the money-throwing boy who used to joke every day, actually did such a big thing, and the salted fish turned over, which made the people in the city and the girls in the land of fireworks drop their eyeballs, but the old man Wang who raised his eyebrows was very happy, his face was full of red light as if he was ten years younger, and with a wave of his hand, a lot of silver was sprinkled out, and the flowing water banquet was set for ten days, and all meals and drinks were provided for free, and the people in the city could eat them for free.

Just over halfway through the banquet, there was a commotion at the gate of the palace, and the maids and maids at the door hurriedly rushed into the inner room, and the villagers who were sitting in the mansion and ate the flowing water banquet also stood up and watched.

It turned out that the eldest young master of the palace returned from the Taishou Mansion to be rewarded, and he also brought the soldiers of the Thunder Army to the palace as a guest, which was a great honor, and the old man Wang hurriedly led people out of the inner room all the way and welcomed everyone into the mansion.

After some tossing, everyone finally gathered around the table and began to eat, Wang Jing's performance this time was really good, and the potential was also very great, so the Thunder Army was still very optimistic about him, and he was also very popular, in addition to the school officers who fought side by side with him, even the commander of the Thunder Army Li Kaicheng came, which shows the importance attached to him.

Li Kaicheng deserved to have survived after the fight outside the gate, in addition to killing the enemy, the ability to drink is also quite top-notch, a jar of spirits under the stomach but the face does not change, the occasional exudation of the kind of fierce spirit, so that the young and well-informed old man Wang is also frightened, swallowing all the words he originally wanted to say back into his stomach.

To be honest, although his son returned safely this time, which can be regarded as a meritorious achievement, he, as a father, still wants his son to withdraw from the army, with the family wealth he has saved from his life's hard work, even if Wang Jing does nothing in his life, he can easily afford it, why bother living this kind of life with his head tied to his belt.

Standing at the head of the city earlier and looking at the tragic scene of the river of blood flowing below, but the old couple was frightened, he wanted to talk about it at the wine table, but it was obviously not very suitable at the moment, thinking about finding a time to talk to his son, hoping that he would start a family as soon as possible, so that he could hold his grandson as soon as possible, and he would be satisfied in this life.

Wang Jing picked up the wine bowl and drank it all, only to feel that this expensive wine did not return to the taste of the past, and he was hesitant in his heart, and he couldn't help but miss the kind of strong taste that sneaked out to drink inferior wine with a group of recruits on every ten-day holiday in the army, and occasionally he could meet veterans who also sneaked out, everyone tacitly regarded each other as if they had not seen each other, it was very interesting, thinking of this, the corners of Wang Jing's mouth couldn't help but bring a smile, and in an instant, he understood what he wanted.

After three rounds of drinking, it was getting late, everyone dispersed, Wang Jing sent the Thunder Army soldiers to the street, Li Kaicheng didn't say anything before leaving, just patted Wang Jing's shoulder with his hand, the school officer also looked a little complicated, and saw the prosperity of Wang Jing's family, and all of them knew in their hearts that it was not easy to make such a determination.

Wang Jing lowered his head and walked back to the palace slowly, and as soon as he looked up, he saw a slender figure waiting under the bright red lantern at the entrance of the mansion.

He originally thought that Mr. Wang would find a family with the right family, but he didn't think that the girl's family background was not good, just an ordinary family, as the richest man in Fengcheng, Mr. Wang's vision was naturally vicious.

This is the first time he and her have been alone, under the bright light, Wang Jing can clearly see the girl's delicate little face and simple clothes, all kinds of means of freeing the flowers on weekdays have been forgotten for a while, and it looks a little wooden.

"It's not early, I'm going home, otherwise A-Niang will be worried. After the girl finished speaking, two red clouds climbed on her snow-white little face, which was very beautiful.

"Oh, then I'll send you back. ”

The girl nodded, and the two of them walked towards the east side of Fengcheng, Fengcheng after the beast tide returned to its former liveliness, and the night market was still prosperous, Wang Jing escorted the girl through the bustling crowd, and the two of them did not speak along the way, just silent, until they walked to an ordinary wooden house in Dongcheng, stopped, and her home arrived!

The girl turned to look at Wang Jing's face, her eyes sparkling as if she could speak.

"I saw everything at the dinner table today very clearly, and I also know your inner entanglement and hesitation, originally I shouldn't be blindly involved in a woman's family, but since we are engaged, this life is tied together, so I think I can still say a few words. ”

The girl must have thought for a long time before she could say so much in one breath, and the clenching of her little whitish fists showed that her heart was not as calm as it appeared.

"I think you go and do what you want to do, when I was a child, my brother liked to dance with knives and guns, but my father didn't allow it, I insisted on letting him inherit the carpenter's work, my brother ran away from home in a fit of anger, and he hasn't returned home once, and he doesn't know life and death, I don't want you to be like my brother, go and never return, as for the old man, I will take care of it, you can do it with confidence, but before I go, I want to visit this Fengcheng night market, the family was poor before, and many things are reluctant to buy, so this time you have to help me pay. ”

After saying that, the girl blushed and lowered her head, not daring to look at her fiancé in front of her, as if she had made a very excessive request.

Wang Jing smiled at the girl, raised his hand and touched her head, although it was the first contact, it was as natural as countless times.

Between the crowded and lively crowd, Wang Jing's heart was turbulent as he walked back, he didn't want to go home, he just wandered around the city aimlessly.

In a trance, the vision in front of me was wide, and there was no noisy crowd in my ears, and a sparkling lake came into view, and the silver-white moonlight was softly sprinkled on the lake, like a silver mirror, reflecting another round moon, as if it was close at hand.

There is a stone table by the lake, there is a pot of wine on the table, there are three people sitting at the table, and there is a faint fire shining in the distance, as if someone is cooking on a fire.

I heard a young voice coming: "Good tea, good tea!"

Wang Jing followed the sound and looked at it, it was obviously a wine jug, but why did it say it was tea?
