I’m The King Chapter 615: : Autumn
Autumn is always pleasant, without the irritating heat of summer, and the biting cold of winter, it is not inferior to spring when all kinds of flowers are in full bloom. The blooming flowers in this season make this season colorful, and more importantly, autumn is the harvest season.
He Dayou is riding on a horse, even if he is lame with a 'leg' and cannot control a war horse, it is no problem for him to climb on a saber and let him walk honestly, because his hands are very strong . Behind him, there were more than a dozen young people, each of whom was riding on a horse. Although they were only wearing very ordinary burlap clothes, they still looked heroic, but they seemed a little too young and looked a little shy.
Everyone of them has a knife in their waist, even the leader He Dayou also has a knife in his waist. Among them were five or six flatbed carriages, on which were dragged bags of grain.
The carriage is walking on the wide road, and the horseshoes knock on the hard road, making a crisp sound. On both sides of the road, there are endless golden wheat 'waves' in sight. Among the golden waves, rows of farmers holding sickles are waving their arms vigorously, harvesting mature crops.
"Uncle, in front is Uncle Zhou's tea shed, take a rest for a while, the horses pulling the cart are already tired, and it is not far from Jishi City, take a rest, drink a bowl of tea before leaving!" a young man said. Armed with the belly of the horse, he rushed to He Dayou, the leader, and said.
He Dayou glanced at the shovels pulling the cart, and nodded with some dissatisfaction, "Take a break, take a rest, Abochi is really nothing, and these sloppy horses are too bad, although they can drag things It's a lot, but it won't be so exhausting after walking dozens of miles. When I get back, I'll ask him to settle the score."
Several young people laughed. "Yes, go back and ask him to settle the score. Abochi also taught us how to ride a 'shooter'. He hasn't taught us until now, but he tricked us into drinking a lot of wine. When uncle asked him to settle the score, You have to remember this."
"Yes, yes! Uncle, although Abochi has broken an arm, he was an old scout soldier before. He is amazing. He just taught us the trick of riding a horse for a few days, and we have benefited a lot from it. , if we can let him teach us everything, we will definitely be able to join the Red Guards when we recruit soldiers next time."
He Dayou laughed loudly, "Good boy, your ambition is not small, but your tone is not small."
During the conversation, everyone had already arrived in front of the tea shed, got off their horses, tied the horses under their crotch to the grain cart, and walked into the tea shed.
The owner of the tea shed is in his early forties, with many scars on his face, and two "legs" are gone, sitting by the stove, squinting, stuffing some chopped firewood into the stove from time to time. The person running around in the tea shed to greet the guests was a woman in Hun costume. Looking at the protruding belly, she was obviously a woman who was pregnant.
"Chief whistle." He Dayou seemed to be very familiar with the owner of the tea shed, and he greeted loudly as soon as he entered the shed. The squinted owner heard the greeting and opened his eyes. 'Smile.
"Going to the city to sell food?" He waved at He Dayou, "Come and sit, come and sit."
He Dayou limped over and sat opposite the boss, with a straight body: "Chief whistle, how are you doing these days?"
"What's wrong?" The boss smiled, pointing at the busy Hun girl, "Your sister-in-law is about to give birth. You're going to be an uncle."
The Hun woman also came over at this time and poured a bowl of tea for He Dayou. My sister-in-law is taking good care of it!"
The Xiongnu woman shook her head, "I'm not as delicate as you women from the Central Plains. In our grassland, I'm about to give birth, and I have to milk the milk. You should go to herd and you have to go to herd." She spoke the Central Plains dialect very stiffly and very slowly.
The owner of the tea shop chuckled: "I also told him to keep it. I can take care of this shed by myself, but she just won't allow it. Dayou, what kind of virtue did I accumulate in my previous life? 'Great' woman, don't worry about anything, she will take care of everything."
The Hun woman pursed her lips and smiled, picked up the boiling water on the stove, and walked to the side vigorously.
"Business is really good!" Looking around at the tables full of guests in the tea shed, He Dayou said with a smile.
"Of course it's good. This is the main road into the city, Dayou. Now I rely on this tea shop, so I can eat and drink without worrying about it." The owner of the tea shop was very proud.
"Chief whistler, this child is about to be born. I'm afraid it will cost a lot. I have to save a few in my hand. I remember when the whistle chief was in the team, he got the salary, but it was spent in a blink of an eye. 'Light. It's not good now.'" He Dayou said.
"Of course, that's of course." The boss nodded again and again, "I can't plant the fields allotted to my family. The mothers-in-law call for others to help plant them, and there are also old brothers from the past who come to help, so I don't have to worry about eating and drinking. Yes, when I retired, I didn’t dare to ‘spend’ the pension.”
"Yes, yes, then you have to save it for emergencies!" He Dayou said.
"Why keep it!" The boss proudly said: "I took the money to buy shares in a shop in the city, which specializes in fur business, and I will give dividends. I got the first dividend last year. I have earned all my original capital back. This year is coming to the end of the year, and I have another large sum of money. I am thinking about starting a new house. The mother-in-law at home likes to raise cattle, sheep and horses, and the place is smaller now. Dayou, I'm a rich man now, so when you don't have money, just come to me."
He Dayou let out a hey, "Chief whistler, I'm the head of Baiyang Village now, and I can get paid every month. This year, our village has opened up thousands of acres of wasteland, and the family has started a three-entry operation. House, have you seen those boys? They are not very old, but they can gallop on horses. Our village now has hundreds of horses. Look, have I got my food? This is just the first batch , Next, our Baiyang Village still has tens of thousands of catties of grain to be sent to the city and sold to the government, which is a lot of money, do you think I will be short of money?"
The two looked at each other, and they both burst out laughing, with unconcealable pride on their faces.
"My brother and I are destined to be soldiers together, we went to the battlefield together, and we both married the wife of the Xiongnu. Our family has a son, the sentinel, if it is a girl in your mother-in-law's arms, our two families Just get married."
"What bullshit!" But the boss quit, "The seed I planted must also be a son. We are still counting on having a son. After more than ten years, we will be able to go and fight for the governor. If you are a girl, then you will be blind."
"If General He Lan hears your words, he will definitely beat you up." He Dayou giggled, "Even if Madam heard it, I would definitely not be happy. Think about the battle in Jishi City the year before last. , Madam brought her 'servants' and 'girls' to battle."
"Our family, how can we compare with Madam!" The boss lowered his voice, "This child must be a boy. If there is a 'daughter' in the future, it is not unreasonable."
"It's a deal!" The two stretched out their hands and shook them tightly, both overjoyed.
"Chief Whistle, I have to go! I have to buy some things after selling the food, and then I rush back, and it will be dark." He Dayou stood up, "When the whistle grows up to be a kid, you will come to congratulate the whistle Long."
"Hurry up, hurry up, there are a lot of food sellers passing by today, you just arrived at this time, maybe you have to wait in line." The boss waved his hand and said.
He Dayou took out a few big coins from his pocket, "tea money!"
"I'm not being polite to you." The boss smiled Mimi authentically. "You're rich anyway."
While the two were talking and laughing, there was a sudden sound of horseshoes outside the tea shed. They both turned their heads at the same time, and saw a horse galloping in the distance, and a knight with a red flag on his back whipped his whip and hurried away. , while shouting loudly: "Give way, let the way, Hetao victory, the governor wiped out Dong Hu Yuwenke's troops. Make way."
"Hetao has won!" He Dayou and the boss were overjoyed, almost all the tea drinkers in the shed jumped up and rushed outside, and several young people were even more overjoyed.
"Dayou, when you come back, let your kid go first, and I'll let the mother-in-law go to make a few hard dishes right away, let's have a few drinks and congratulate the governor!" The boss patted his thigh vigorously ', laughed loudly.
"It must be. When I come back, I will bring back a pack of Xiaoji duck necks. I remember that you like to eat this thing the most."
The guests in the tea shed all checked out and left one after another. Since there was a success messenger coming, the Uncle Douhui and the county government will definitely post a detailed announcement. Everyone wants to rush to see the details. Although it is not uncommon for the East Army to win a battle ~IndoMTL.com~ But this time, they fought with the East Hu army in a serious manner.
All the tea guests in the shed disappeared in an instant, leaving only a few people sitting in the farthest corner, a young gentleman, two servants who looked like book boys, and the other two were thin, like companions.
"Qin'er, pay the bill." The young man stood up and ordered in a low voice.
"Yes, sir!" A servant stood up, walked up to the boss, reached out and took out a small ingot of silver, and put it in front of the boss, "There's no need to look for it."
The boss stared at the silver coins in front of him, and suddenly raised his head to look at the young man, only to see him a little hairy.
"Aren't these guest officials locals?" The boss smiled, stretched out his hand to pick up the silver coin, and threw it away: "I'm in a good mood today, so I don't care about you. , I used to be a soldier under Gao Dudu, but now I have quit the army, but the governor has arranged us very well. Now we can support ourselves and never eat food that comes from you. The five of you drank five bowls of tea and ate I bought three plates of small snacks, and I owe you twenty Wen."
