Chapter 69: Go Home
It took a month to eat and play along the way to Dongzhou, and asked Li Dazi to take people back to the Dongzhou branch and walk alone to the small town by the Dongzhou seaside.
Donghe City is on the seaside. There are many rich people in the city. Generally, those with small families will move to the city. Because they are close to the sea and river, there are also many docks in the city, and basically workers and fishermen live outside the city. Of course, poor families with no money must also live outside the city. After all, there are different consumption in the city, and they really can't afford to live in the city without money. Therefore, some dock owners will recruit workers outside the city. Over time, a type of canal specializes in dock porters appeared. At this time, he was leading a small donkey in the canal transportation area.
The weather was quite hot, and she wore a linen shirt that cut corners, and she looked like a foreigner who was visiting relatives and friends. She wandered around the Caoyun District for a long time but couldn't see the person he was looking for. "Strange, have the fat man and the monkey changed places?" She lifted up the corners of her clothes and wiped her sweat, and walked to the workers waiting for the living on the roadside. "Uncle, ask if there are two people in this Caoyun District, one is fat and the other is thin, and she looks about twenty years old. She used to wait for living here."
The man sat in the corner and sniffed a cigarette, "You said Xiaopang and Monkey, right? I know him, he hasn't been looking for a living here for a long time."
"Ah??⊙?⊙, does that uncle know where the two of them are looking for a living?"
"A new harbor was built by the sea half a year ago. It is said that the Xinyan Helper paid for it, and it was specially used to go to sea salt, and it was exported to the west. The boss paid a relatively high wage, but the work was too heavy. In the past, they were all young men. The older ones couldn't do that job, and my dog was there too."
New Salt Gang? Isn’t that Hong Tao’s gang? Damn, this fat man has developed the territory of the Axe Gang? There are many people in the Great Wei Dynasty who do salt goods business, but only Hong Tao is currently selling sea salt to the west. The development of the Axe Gang is probably going to have to put a lot of blood on the development of the Axe Gang? He lowered his head and said, “Thank you, uncle.”
After saying that, he led the donkey and rushed to the beach. He hadn't seen each other for so many years and missed them a little. I remember that when I went to the sea to take a bath for the first time, the fat man could not swim. He and the monkey were dragged into the water several times, and they drank a lot of water each time. Later, this kid learned to swim and asked him to take revenge every summer. He was so big that he could not fight this kid and was always half-dead. At that time, the monkey liked to dig bird nests the most. He and the fat man couldn't climb trees. Every time the monkey climbed up and dug them, and ate them equally. I remember five years ago when the little fairy was about to leave, he went to find the fat man and the monkey to climb the tree and dig the last bird nest. I remember the expression of the two who saw the little fairy for the first time. Well! It seems that the first time he saw the little fairy was no different from him. Alas! Time flies so fast! It's almost six years in the blink of an eye.
His family lives on the edge of Donghe City, a little far from the Caoyun District, but very close to the beach. When they leave the house, they walk a few hundred meters away. Every time it rains heavily, the roof of the house will be blown away. When they were young, their mother would spend money to ask the Caoyun workers to help repair it. Later, when they grew up, they would ask the fat man to repair it with the monkey. The fat man had a very awesome work. He had played since childhood. He didn't need to be useless. As long as they came to his house, his mother would cook some good food. He was so shameless that he was addicted to eating things. He came to eat every few days.
, said that I was too tired to work in the canal transport helper and needed to make up for it, so I wanted to make up for it. Why did I run to my house to cook it? Hey! The two of them still make sense, and said: The dishes cooked by my mother are not as delicious as Aunt Yun’s. I’ll come to your house for a meal? As for? Next time, I bring a carp, and my monkey is not empty-handed, I bring a local chicken. Oh, he has nothing to say, just take it! Grandma, the two of them are so hard when they are served on the table, and he, a scholar, can’t grab two birds every time. Alas! I miss it!
Before I knew it, I arrived at the beach. There was really a new port with several large cargo ships parked at the port. There were quite a few cargo workers. If you look carefully, there was indeed a fat man, and his size would never be wrong.
At this time, on the ship loading, "Fatty, should I go to Aunt Yun to have a free meal after work?"
"Ah? Still going? My mother said Aunt Yun has worked hard every day, and Brother Yi is not at home, so she asked me to go to Aunt Yun's house for free. Aunt Yun still has to cook for us for a day. If she is tired, it is not good."
The thin young man threw the salt bag into the cabin and turned around and said, "You! Bai Chang is full of flesh. We and Brother Yi have been playing together since childhood. Now Brother Yi has been in power for four years. We don't know whether it's dead or alive. I'm leaving Aunt Yun alone, so we can't take care of Brother Yi? Stop talking nonsense. You buy chickens and I buy fish after work. My mother doesn't care about me. You are so adult and you still listen to your mother. I'm really convinced."
The fat man hesitated for a moment, "Do you want to visit Aunt Yun or Sister Xueer? Don't fool me."
The thin guy smiled and said, "Uh?⊙! Hehe, look at it, since Sister Xueer is Brother Yi's cousin, then she is my monkey cousin. If you are brothers, you can see your aunt and cousin, it's a serious matter."
The fat man looked at him with a contempt and said while getting off the boat, "Just blow it! Alas... I don't know how Brother Yi is now."
The thin guy also got off the boat, "I don't know, according to me, there will be no accident with Brother Yi's ability. I heard that the west side has been unblocked, so why don't we have time to go to the west side to look for it?"
"Well! Okay, after work, let's go shopping for vegetables. I wonder if Aunt Yun is busy today. Aunt Yun is not at home, so it's better for us to go there later, so as not to go around." Yes, although this fat man is rigid, he still understands the truth.
"Yes! OK"
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, they heard a shout - "Fatty... Monkey, your boss is back. Hahahaha!"
Fatty: "⊙?⊙?Who called me?"
Monkey: "Stunning? Why do I sound like Brother Yi?"
The two looked up the shore: "Damn it! Yi, Yi, Brother Yi?"
"Hey! It's me, you two are coming down soon, the boss misses you to death."
"Damn it! It's really Brother Yi. Fatty, go and tell the foreman that we will take a leave today. Mom! Brother Yi is back and drinks tonight."
...
As soon as he got off the boat, he was picked up by the huge size, "Hey! Hey! Put me down, damn it, I'm like a girl."
"Haha, Brother Yi is still so handsome! Shave your beard off and compares with some girls!"
"Go to your uncle, go for a walk, go to my house, I will take you out tonight."
The monkey happily grabbed his hand and jumped around, "Brother Yi, it's great to be alive. We won't go play anymore. We'll drink at home at night."
He reached out and knocked the monkey out, "What are you talking about? Brother is poor, don't you ask you to play with? Don't talk nonsense, go to my house first. I don't know how my mother is doing after not coming back for four years."
"Oh! With me and monkey here, what can Aunt Yun have to do?" After saying that, the fat man helped him lead the donkey to the edge of the city.
There were people talking and laughing along the way. Fatty is called someone else. In fact, his surname is Wei, and his name is Wei Dongpeng. The monkey's surname is Ma, and the big name is Ma Liansheng. He also had a little cat with him since he was a child. The girl's surname was Yin, and she was Yin Qiqi. In the past, the three families lived outside the city. Later, the little cat's family made some money and took the family to move to the city. There was no way. The little cat's father was also a scholar. He found a job as an accountant in the city. He was not tired from work and did a good job. He had been to save some money for more than ten years.
The city built a property that is not too big. When he was young, Old Man Yin thought about getting his daughter married to him, but later he gave up because he found a good job. When he was thirteen or fourteen years old, his mother went to the city to ask about marriage, but after being rejected by Old Man Yin, he never mentioned this again. He also understood what Old Man Yin meant. Originally, if people's living conditions improve, they naturally had to look up with their daughter. He was a young man from a poor family who could not catch the eyes of Old Man Yin.
The weather was really hot at noon. The three of them were sweating when they arrived home in the sun. It was sad to think about it when they looked at the two thatched houses. He grew up in these two thatched houses, and all the memories of his childhood were in these two thatched houses. The two couplets he carved on the four broken doors were already blurred, but after careful consideration, they still had some marks-
Those who have ambitions will succeed and make a fortune. The 12 Qin Passes will eventually belong to Chu.
If you work hard, God will never let you down. If you sleep on firewood and taste gall, you can swallow Wu with three thousand Yue Jia.
Another thatched house, because the eaves are relatively low, you can still see clearly-
Alluring and prosperous worldly affairs
A powerful and powerful public clothing
Two couplets, one is the one that passes the scholar and the other is the one that passes the imperial examination. Thinking about it, he was really naive at the time, and he thought he could become a high-ranking official by passing the top scorer. It turns out that this world is not like this, and officials also need strength to support him. Emperor Wu of Wei is the emperor of the world, but how many people will listen to him?
Officials without power are always the smallest.
He raised his feet and said, "Home...I'm back."
"Wait for Brother Yi"
Well, as soon as he was about to push the door in, the monkey shouted to stop, turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
The monkey said shyly, "Your cousin is still inside! You have to knock on the door."
He: "?⊙?⊙?⊙? Cousin? My cousin?" After thinking about it, how could he have a cousin? I have lived outside Donghe City for more than ten years, and there is no one else except him and his mother. Strangely, where did my cousin come from when my mother didn't remarry?
The monkey was about to explain, and with a creaking sound, the door opened, accompanied by a female voice, "Who? Brother Monkey and Brother Fat?" Fortunately, he didn't push the door, otherwise he would have pushed the girl down directly. He blocked the door and looked at the girl, thinking about who this girl is? She is quite beautiful. Chen Xueer was also puzzled! Who is this guy? Why didn't Monkey bring her before? But she is so handsome.
"Uh...why are you here?" he asked in confusion
Chen Xueer raised her hand and pointed at herself, "Me? I must be here! This is my home, I am not here, where is it?"
"⊙?⊙? Your house?" said, turning his head to look at the monkey. "We are going to the wrong place? Or did my mother sell the house and move it to another place?"
The monkey stared at her small eyes, "What? Brother Yi doesn't know her cousin?"
It would be strange if he could meet him. The girl changed a lot. He was only over three years old when he saw Xueer. Xueer was less than two years old at that time, and she was all crawling on the ground! How could she still know her in the past ten years? She turned her face and looked at Xueer, "Are you?"
Xueer raised her index finger and pressed her nose, pouted and said, "My name is Chen Xue, Aunt Yun is my aunt."
He: "?⊙?⊙? Are you Xiao Xueer from my uncle's family? Damn, why have you grown so big?"
Chen Xue also stared at the boss's eyes: "Uh? You, you, are you Liu Yi's cousin? Why have you grown up so old?"
The monkey and the fat man were so depressed that they were so depressed. Why do you need to ask if you grow up so old? How many years have you been doing? Are you still thinking about the memory of the crotch-opener pants? You can only interrupt "Okay, OK, Brother Yi finally came back. Xueer, when will Aunt Yun get off work?"
Chen Xueer then reacted and hurriedly moved away, "Come in, come in, aunt has to come back in the evening. Are you having dinner? I was about to go buy vegetables, so you came over. I'll buy it now, you can wait."
Chen Xue was about to go out and was pulled by the fat man, "Don't go, that order of food is not enough for me to eat myself. If you buy too much, you can't get it. Let's go with Monkey. You have to buy two jars of wine. You can talk to Brother Yi at home."
The fat man and the monkey went out to buy vegetables, leaving him and Chen Xueer even more embarrassed. They wanted to speak but didn't know what to say. They held it in for a long time, "That... Xueer, why did you come to Dongzhou? Do you know?"
Chen Xue also held it in for a long time before she said, "I should know."
Damn, what should I know? Think about the matter of my uncle's family, he has a rough idea. Xue'er's mother's name was Taozi. She used to be his mother's personal maid. Later, she was attracted by Chen Wenlie and snatched away from her mother and took a concubine. But the eldest aunt's woman's temperament, everyone in the Grand Tutor's Mansion knew that she could not tolerate the maid robbing her of men. Not to mention it, she also beat her every few days (the concubine was like a servant in front of the main room). It is estimated that Xue'er was excluded by her aunt and ran to Dongzhou. Logically speaking,
The personal maids are dowry by the master. She has to follow wherever the master marrys. When her mother marrys her father, she naturally has to bring the maids with her. But Xueer's mother is attracted by Chen Wenlie. His father can't compete with Chen Wenlie for a maid, right? It can only be said that his father gave Xueer's mother to Chen Wenlie. Xueer said that Dongzhou is her family, and there is something wrong with it. Originally, the personal maid and the master will always be together. Now the master is in Donghe City, so Xueer's home is in Donghe City.
Sighing, "Oh! It's okay, my cousin will help you vent your anger in the future. If Aunt Taozi is not used to living in Zhucheng, I will take it back as soon as possible."
Well, it would be fine if he didn't say this. As soon as he said it, Xueer's eyes turned red and cried, "Woooooo... Mom, my mother is gone, my mother is gone, I passed away three years ago, I died. Woooooooo..."
"Ah??⊙?⊙Damn, what's going on? Aunt Taozi passed away? Don't cry, what's going on."
Xue'er cried and said, "Three years ago, my mother was sick and did not complete the task assigned by the aunt. When the aunt was angry, she beat her to death. She didn't even allow the funeral to be held. She dug a hole outside the city and buried it. I went to find my father to erect a tombstone for her mother, but my father was afraid that my aunt would not dare to erect a monument for her mother. The servants in the mansion had pity for me and raised some money for me to erect a monument for her mother. But a few days after I erected the monument, my aunt sent someone to smash it off. She even called me a bastard and told me to get out. I couldn't make it in the mansion and secretly ran to Dongzhou."
When he heard Xueer's words, he immediately became furious and stood up and scolded, "Damn Chen Wenlie, wait for me. Dad's grudge and Aunt Taozi's grudge, I insist that you return it back 1,000 times more than ten thousand times."
He looked down at Xiao Xueer who was still crying, stretched out his arms and put them in his arms, comforted him, "Xiao Xueer, don't cry, my cousin promises that I will avenge Xiao Xueer in the future, and I believe in my cousin."
The sun set without realizing it. Just as he hugged each other, a woman came in at the door and said in surprise, "Yi'er?"
Turning around, seeing the woman, she burst into tears. She let go of Chen Xueer and hugged the woman and cried, "Mom! Yi'er misses you so much. I miss you so much that I can't even sleep well. When I close my eyes, my mind is full of my mother's shadow. Now I can see you..."
How could Chen Yun be the mother cry like this? When she heard that the top scholar was sent to be a soldier by the court, she was almost broken. Her husband was dead. If something happened to her son, would she still survive? If Xiaoxue hadn't come from Zhucheng, she would have jumped into the river. Now she saw her son safe and sound, and she cried, holding her son and cried, "Mom, I miss you so much. When I heard that you were sent to be a soldier, I even had the heart to die. Fortunately, Xiaoxue was there, otherwise I wouldn't know what life was like. I didn't expect that my Yi'er was still alive, and I was so happy, I was so happy."
The whole family is a miserable person. He has not shed a single tear even after 19 years of living. It really fits the saying: A man doesn’t cry easily, but he is not sad. Looking at my mother’s face, he stretched out his hand to wipe it, and smiled and said, “Haha! Mom is still so beautiful.”
Chen Yun wiped her tears, "You little brat, your mother is in her forties, so how can you be beautiful? By the way, Yi'er must have not eaten yet. She's just buying vegetables now. She hasn't eaten the dishes she cooks for many years, so Yi'er probably forgot what the taste is."
Chen Xue quickly grabbed her who was going to buy vegetables and said, "Aunt, Fatty Brother and Monkey Brother have gone out to buy vegetables. Let's wait."
"Oh, these two children are really interested."
"Yes! Every time the roof is blown by strong wind, two brothers will come to repair it."
Listening to Xiao Xueer’s conversation with his mother, he thought to himself: Fatty, monkey, it’s really brother, thank you, boss.
