Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Daan returns home
Changping Village.

On the 26th of the twelfth lunar month, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang left early in the morning for Wanghai County to pick up Da'an.

The matter of sending flowers to Ping'er's house for the wedding ceremony was left to Wang Cuilian. Of course, Yang Ruoqing had greeted Ping'er and Zhou Sheng beforehand, and explained the reason why she couldn't go to the wine.

On the side of the official road in Wanghai County, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang waited for half an hour, and finally met Da'an's carriage smoothly.

Da'an is light and simple, with two carriages and four attendants, two of whom pretend to be coachmen.

Of course, these are not ordinary attendants, they are all very skilled practitioners, escorting them all the way from the capital.

In the carriage in front, there is a carpet, in addition to a box of books, for rest on the road to Da'an.

In the carriage behind are the New Year gifts for the family and relatives.

"Come back from thousands of miles, the twelfth lunar month is yellow, why don't you bring a few more followers to protect you?" After the two sides met and exchanged pleasantries, Yang Ruoqing asked Da'an.

Da'an smiled and said: "When the capital was about to leave, it happened that Escort Han from the Shunfeng Escort Bureau of Qing'an County came to visit, and learned that their Escort Bureau had just escorted a batch of bodyguard funds to the capital city, and the brothers were also leaving for home, so they went together , Only then did I count the four followers."

Yang Ruoqing nodded, "It turns out that I came back with Escort Han, so it's really safe."

Luo Fengtang said: "Didn't the previous letter say that we would be home before No. 20? Why was it delayed for five or six days?"

Da'an turned to Luo Fengtang: "Brother-in-law doesn't know something, it started to snow when we left the capital and entered the border of Helan Prefecture, that's why we were delayed."

Yang Ruoqing asked, "Is there a lot of snow in Helanzhou?"

Da'an said: "The goose feather snow continued for several days, and the road was blocked. We changed the waterway to avoid that section and landed at the pier in Qing'an County."

Yang Ruoqing said: "This year's hometown was also hit by a snow disaster. Our village collapsed due to the snow and people died."

Da'an was surprised, and immediately asked whose family was hit by the disaster.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Huo Sheng's family, Huo Sheng's mother-in-law Yun Xia and her two children are gone..."

Da'an suddenly changed color.

fire?

He and Huo Sheng used to play together when they were young, and later he went to elementary school, and Huo Sheng followed his parents to work in the fields, and the two never saw each other again.

Later when Huo Sheng got married, even though he was far away in the capital, he still sent a letter to his parents at home, and sent an extra letter in his own name when sending the share money.

Later, he and Xiao Hua got married, and Huo Sheng also added more money to the share.

"What a natural and man-made disaster!" Da'an sighed.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Da'an, let's go home, mother made you duck soup early in the morning, and said you wanted to drink duck vermicelli soup in your book last time."

Da'an nodded slightly, and when he mentioned the family letter, he smiled.

"Every time I go home, my mother always asks me what I want to eat. I am not a person who cares about appetite, but if I don't say anything, I am afraid that my mother will feel uneasy, so I mentioned the old duck fan. soup."

Yang Ruoqing also smiled, "I understand, my mother needs a goal to be motivated. If you say that you can eat anything, she will be at a loss as to what is the most appropriate food. You mentioned it casually." After one or two things, she immediately became full of energy, and when she saw us eating, she felt relieved and satisfied."

Da'an nodded vigorously: "What my sister said is true, mother's heart is indeed so."

Yang Ruoqing raised her hand and patted Da'an's shoulder: "Get in the car, you haven't seen Fuwa yet, that little girl is so handsome."

Hearing his daughter's name, Da'an's eyes lit up instantly, and he hurried into the carriage, wishing he could grow wings and fly home.

The three carriages left the county town towards Qingshui Town, Yang Ruoqing invited Da An to come and ride in the same carriage with herself and Luo Fengtang, and Da An sent another attendant to take over Luo Fengtang's carriage.

The three of them were chatting in the car, talking about things in the capital after Yang Ruoqing left, about old Yang's family, about Chen'er, about ambition, about Mu Zichuan...

"Is Chen'er home yet? I still have great ambitions. Are you coming back this year for the New Year?" Da'an asked.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Chen'er sent a message this year and won't come back for the New Year. Zhi'er's mother's health is getting worse and worse, and I'm afraid she won't be able to come back."

Luo Fengtang added: "Last time I went back to the village to stay for a few days, and it happened that Zhi'er also came back. Before leaving, I took him to Yangzhou on the way and met his mother."

"Brother-in-law, how about Dazhi's biological mother?" Da'an asked.

Luo Fengtang shook his head: "Look at that spirit, he is not a long-stay guest!"

Da'an frowned, and sighed softly: "Dazhi is also a filial child. He returned to Yangzhou at the age of eight, and has been doing his filial piety while studying for more than four years. , His mother should also be relieved."

Yang Ruoqing was both relieved and distressed at the mention of Dazhi.

"It's not easy for that child to be in charge at such a young age," she said.

"The child who is studying in other people's family is full of attention. The adults in the family take care of everything for him, but what about him? There are too many things to worry about. Every time I think of these things, I feel uncomfortable, but there is nothing I can do."

Luo Fengtang lightly patted the back of Yang Ruoqing's hand, and comforted him: "We provided Zhi'er with the principal for doing business, and asked him to set up a shop and a field, although it took him a lot of effort to take care of this, but each The quarterly income also allows him and his brothers and sisters to live comfortably!"

"What's more, these things can also exercise him. For a boy, this is essential!"

"Brother-in-law is right, sister, don't feel bad, a man, how can you do it without going through the wind and rain? Besides, look at Chen'er, who received the holy order to practice the navy at a young age, looking at the whole Daqi, and even this There is only one in the whole world, with such experience, you will definitely be a famous person in the future when you become an adult!"

Watching the two men on the left and one on the right taking turns comforting in the carriage, Yang Ruoqing couldn't laugh or cry.

"Don't worry, I know it well, I won't let these motherly emotions infect their brothers, let alone become their bondage, I'll just say a few words to you in private, in front of them, or I usually exchange letters, but I always say words of encouragement." She said.

Luo Fengtang smiled: "The sons will be successful in the future, it must be because there is an amazing mother standing behind them."

Yang Ruoqing gave him an angry look: "Stop praising me, I won't take that set."

"Then which set do you eat?" Luo Fengtang teased.

Yang Ruoqing pinched him lightly: "I won't tell you which set I take, but I know exactly which set you take."

"Oh? Tell me about it, so that Da'an can help you evaluate it."

In order to divert Yang Ruoqing's thinking about her son, Luo Fengtang continued to ask.
