Chapter 119
So, after a long time, the big guys really admire him from the bottom of their hearts.At the very least, no one ever doubted how he got the position of centurion.
Probably this is one power down ten times, as long as you are strong enough, how can you be afraid of being provoked by others?
With his own fist, he quickly made a name for himself in the barracks.Then he and the six sons called brothers and got along with each other, and of course he was still the eldest brother.Having said that, even though he looks so fierce that he is not easy to get close to, but when we really get along, he is honest and happy, so although the big guys were afraid of him at first, they became sincere towards him after a long time.
He said he was sincere, but in fact, it was better to say that a group of rough men gathered together, big and small, and even the things transferred to him by the superiors could be looted.
Of course, Lin Baozhu didn't know about those things.She is grinding steamed yams and red dates into mud right now.Seeing that it was almost done, it was mixed with the white flour, and then it was smooth without any bumps, and then it was twisted into small pieces and steamed on the grates.
These foods are storable, so it doesn't hurt to make more.Anyway, the weather is cooler now, and it won't be bad if you leave it for a few days.
After finishing her work, she had to bring some food and stewed meat for Zhang Mandun. She looked at the sky outside which was beginning to light up.Then he wiped the handle and went to yank the latch of the door.It is reckoned that Shi Dayong and Zhang Xiuniang should also come over, they have already made an appointment to come to the compound for dinner on the day of going to the county seat.
In order to save some time, she simply started breakfast by herself.There is no shortage of eggs at home now, and the duck eggs were taken away by her man last time, so after thinking about it, she fried a few egg boxes directly in the pan.The whole egg is fried into the hot oil, accompanied by the sound of crackling, and it has been formed quickly before the egg is scattered, and it becomes very attractive after a while.
After frying the eggs, she covered a few more cakes, then fried and stewed the green vegetables and beans, and finally cooked a small pot of rice with yam, eggs and beans.Speaking of vegetables and rice, she also learned from her sisters-in-law in the village after she came here. They mixed potato chips and string beans with various vegetables and cooked millet porridge, and finally put some salt in to make salty rice.
At first she was not used to it, but after a long time, she also found the taste to be quite good.Not only is it convenient, but there are also many samples to eat, which is very suitable for breakfast when farmers get together.
When the food here was almost ready and the sky outside was bright, Shi Dayong pulled Zhang Xiuniang and Zhaodi in a mule cart and got up.When she got to the front, Zhang Xiuniang saw that Lin Baozhu had already prepared the food, so she was naturally a little embarrassed, so she rolled up her sleeves and helped cut some shredded pickles.And Zhao Di was not idle, she was very busy setting tables and benches.
Shi Dayong looked at it and seemed that there was nothing he could help, so he told Zhang Xiuniang to feed the mules first.This time I went to the county seat, and there was no delay on the way, so I had to feed the animals before leaving home, so as to save myself halfway.
"Baozhu, what else are you doing?" Zhang Xiuniang cut up the pickles and took out the dry food and vegetables. When she came back, she saw that Lin Baozhu was still busy on the stove, so she couldn't help asking.
Although they are not a family, but after getting along for a long time, they both know that they are not people who care about each other.When they were together, they were close, so even if they came to the compound for dinner, Zhang Xiuniang was less cautious and petty than before when they never broke up.
How should I put it, she used to be virtuous, but she was always afraid of things and always felt that she was not good enough.But after getting along with Lin Baozhu for a long time, seeing the way she gets along with Brother Zhang Mandun gave her a bit of an epiphany.
Although she is also taking care of the house now, she will also order her man to do some things, and she won't worry about him getting tired and panic and carry all the things by herself.Sometimes when she has something on her mind, she will tell Shi Dayong, no matter whether it is complaining or blaming, she will not always be bored in her heart and get angry.Needless to say, this kind of life is really a lot more comfortable, and it also makes the relationship between the two of them better.
So, even though Lin Baozhu called her sister-in-law, she actually had a lot to learn from Lin Baozhu.
"No need, we'll have dinner when the elder brother comes back. I'll make some herbal tea, put it in a water bag after a while, and let's drink it on the way." Lin Baozhu lit the stove, boiled the tea leaves, then turned to Zhang Xiuniang and said.
Now she has been using Eagle tea to make herbal tea. In fact, it would be better if there is big-leaf tea from southern Yunnan.It's just that now she doesn't have that condition, and she doesn't want to do what he wants.If there is a chance to go to the south in the future, I must pick some for my own use.
Several people had dinner, then loaded their things into the car, and set off.
Because their goods are afraid of getting wet in the rain and the sun will shine for a long time, so the mule carts are covered with a canopy.Now Lin Baozhu and Zhang Xiuniang brought Zhaodi in, it's not too eye-catching, and it won't provoke gossip from outsiders.
Zhang Ji often goes to towns and counties to deliver goods, and many people in all directions know about this.So when you see Zhang Ji's mule cart from a distance, everyone can say a few words, seeing that Zhang Ji's business is really booming.
As for those robbers, they would not rob some tea and food, after all, they are bandits who don't have the leisure to drink tea.Besides, Zhang Ji's family is in the barracks now, who dares to do it easily?If you really get into trouble, then the gain outweighs the loss.
Walking along the way was also fast, just after noon, a few people went outside the county seat.
Thinking that they had already traveled for half a day, and they might have to travel at night when they rushed back that day, so Lin Baozhu simply asked Shi Dayong to find an inn to rest temporarily.Then I asked the guy to bring some food over, asked the guy who delivered the food where the barracks were, and then smiled and told Zhang Xiuniang that he planned to play in the county for a day before going back.
Shi Dayong and his wife knew that Lin Baozhu wanted to see Zhang Mandun, and they didn't know when they would be able to come back after a delay. In addition, they had to invite a husband, so they might not be able to finish their work before evening.So he complied, saying that Lin Baozhu would be sent to the barracks after dinner, and then he would take Zhaodi to a clothing store in the county town.
Although the Shi family had lived in the county for many years, because Zhaodi was a girl and was not liked by the Shi family's parents, not to mention her, even Zhang Xiuniang hadn't taken a good look at the streets.Sometimes when I go out to buy vegetables, I come in a hurry and come back in a hurry, for fear that my in-laws will be angry if I go back late, and I am afraid that they will take the opportunity to toss.
Even if they have time to go out, the couple would not dare to go to the stall or store to look at things because they are too shy.I'm afraid I can't afford it and make people laugh.But now, they have more or less money in their pockets, and with Lin Baozhu's suggestion, they will naturally not be like before.
Counting it, it was also the first time for Shi Dayong to go shopping with spare money in an upright manner. Every time he saw the strange expressions on the faces of his wife and daughter, he felt uncomfortable in every possible way.But thinking of the warm and comfortable life now, he made up his mind that he must work hard to support his wife and daughter.
Not to mention how the family of three happily bought things here, but Lin Baozhu, who was sent to the barracks and welcomed into the barracks by her man, was poking her man's dark cheek and complaining dissatisfiedly.
After training in the wind and rain for many days, Zhang Mantun's facial features became deeper and tougher.If it was said that his cold face and serious expression was scary before, but now he has a sense of abstinence that makes people feel heart-stirring.
It's just that the man who seemed to be in the presence of an old god, as soon as he arrived at a place where no one was around, and looked at the group of stinky boys who had just been drilled and rested and didn't follow, the expressionless face in front of him instantly disappeared. With a smile on his face, he stared straight at his daughter-in-law with shiny eyes.
As the saying goes, after serving in the army for two or three years, a sow is better than Diaochan.Although he hasn't seen his wife for three or two years, he can't help thinking about it day and night.In addition, Liu Zi often sighed beside him, saying that he missed his sister-in-law's craftsmanship and so on, which made him feel more itchy in his heart.
Now that his daughter-in-law is here, so close at hand, doesn't it make him excited?
Zhang Mantun is not a person who doesn't care about the occasion, but now that no one is watching, he can get closer anyway.Thinking of this, he leaned over, hugged his petite daughter-in-law into his arms, and said in a hoarse voice: "Daughter-in-law, I'm still thinking about asking for leave and going back."
Lin Baozhu rolled her eyes, her face was flushed red, obviously ashamed.But she also missed her own man very much, so even though she was worried about being seen, she was not willing to reject him after all.
The two got together and talked privately for a while, and when she mentioned that she was alone at home and couldn't sleep well every day, Zhang Mandun moved over and kissed the corner of her mouth full of apology.
"Xing'er from Aunt Ma's family is going to get married. She is marrying a boy from the Lu family in Dashi Village. Everyone says it's a good marriage." Lin Baozhu said as she unwrapped the bundle and showed him the stockings she made. , "It's scheduled to go out on the sixth day of the lunar new year. I think Aunt Ma will treat us well. Xing'er will call you uncle and me aunt no matter what. When the time comes, we will have to add makeup to her."
"Well, it should be added." Zhang Mandun was not dissatisfied with his wife's words, and when he saw her say it, he naturally responded again and again.Just looking at his daughter-in-law's smiling face, his heart was so soft that he couldn't help pulling him into his arms again, and then kissed her temples. "I'm not at home in the future, and there are many places in the house that need help, so don't be stingy when you do things on weekdays."
Speaking of this, Zhang Mandun's eyes, which were bright and happy just now, slowly deepened.Two days ago, Little General Mu specially called him out, saying that he wanted him to pull up his team as soon as possible so that he could go to the battlefield at any time.Later, when the second son came, he heard that the north was uneasy, and the border war between Northern Qiang and Da Zhou was imminent, and now Prince Rui had sent many spies out.
