Chapter 018: Brotherly Knot
The bright moon was in the sky, and at this hour, it was already the second half of the night to toss like this, but Zhao Xing still dragged his tired and aching body out of the small courtyard. There was a family member of the Guogong Mansion standing outside the door, and when he saw Zhao Xing coming out, he was still stunned, and after bowing and saluting, he asked, "Lord Zhao doesn't know where else to go." Then he reminded apologetically: "This is not outside, there are many rules in the Guogong Mansion, if it is not necessary, please don't walk around casually." ”
Zhao Xing smiled freely, but still insisted: "No way, the safety of my brother who was born and died with me is really not assured, I still need to go and see, and ask my brother to be accommodating." ”
As a result, his footsteps were sonorous, and a voice said: "This is my fat man's good brother, if you don't look at the brothers who live and die together, I really despise you." As he spoke, the little fat man came out from behind the jungle not far away, carrying a small lantern in his hand, shining on the road not far away.
In fact, this lantern can not reach the front of the feet, and the function is to let the people who come and guard him see who he is, which is enough.
Seeing the little fat man's swollen face with a pig's head, Zhao Xing smiled, stepped forward not to give a salute, but to stiffen his shoulder, grab the small lantern and look at his injuries, at this time, it was the real comrade-in-arms friendship: "How is it, does the injury still hurt?" Zhao Xing asked with concern.
The little fat man jumped heartlessly: "A body of knife wound medicine, two bowls of bone broth, except for the slap my sister hit me, it hurts, everything else is fine." ”
As a result, as soon as the words fell, there was a cold snort behind the bushes, and the little fat man who was scared at that time changed his words: "It doesn't hurt anymore, it doesn't hurt anymore." ”
The eldest lady who was still dressed in military uniform turned out from behind the bushes, and scolded the little fat man: "You can still think of the brothers who live and die together, and they are still individuals, but the injured brothers will not rest and raise?" Don't you have compassion for your brothers? ”
The little fat man hurriedly promised: "Yes, yes, sister." Then he leaned up and smiled and whispered: "But you also taught me that when you show up in times of crisis, can't you buy people's hearts more?" ”
The eldest lady glanced at Zhao Xing, her face may be red, and she changed the topic and said, "Can my brother be empty-handed?" Wine and meat have brought you, go ahead. As she spoke, a group of maids and servants stood behind the little fat man with food boxes.
"Thank you for your thoughtfulness, haha, I'll go over."
Zhao Xing didn't know what to say, so he lowered his head and followed the little fat man out, but he found that the eldest lady walked by, and there were still four mothers-in-law following, holding things in their hands, and entered the courtyard where Xiufen and his mother were placed. Zhao Xing was moved for no reason, and couldn't help but sigh: "A considerate person." ”
In fact, he couldn't help but feel at this eldest lady, from the mouth of the little fat man, to the first time he saw it, to the heroic horseback riding just now, and now, he has already had an 800-degree evaluation of this eldest lady's feelings.
The identity of a group of guys is still low, although they have the merit of rescuing the son, but in the eyes of the national prince, that is what they should share, or there is no need to give them too much face, as long as they promise to fulfill the promise of the little fat man, it is a great grace to them, of course, it is just the practice of their son's promise, and it has nothing to do with their merits. Therefore, the dean who arranged them was a place that had long been abandoned.
But even so, for the guys who have never seen the life of princes and generals, this deserted courtyard makes them forget their pain and sleep. The sigh of every novelty that suddenly appeared in front of them, even on the beams that had fallen with dust, would be the same as a mottled paint.
Just when Wang San and Zhao Liu were arguing about a flying sky on the beam, whether it was a man or a woman, the little fat man took Zhao Xing's judgment with one foot in the door and one foot outside the door: "Feitian's chest is protruding, it is not equal to a woman, it is a man with a beard, as for why this is so, it is the perversion of the Hu painter, instead of arguing about this, I think we should drink and talk with Brother Zhao Xing, are we brothers?" ”
Arguments and have been lying down, as soon as they heard that Zhao Xing and Shizi came to visit everyone, they immediately came to the spirit, and gathered together, especially when they heard Shizi call everyone brothers, and also brought wine and food, at that time, they surrounded the two excitedly, and shouted Brother and called Adult, shouting Shizi into a mess, at this moment, it seems that the injury has left them.
After moving the table and moving the bench, the maids put together a table, and after the maids and women put the wine and food they brought, the leader specially told the little fat man: "Lord Shizi, the eldest lady commanded, don't eat too late, there will be something tomorrow." Then he retreated with his subordinates, leaving the entire space to the little fat man Zhao Xing and their brothers who shared life and death.
The little fat man kicked them up with his hind feet, but he was not the first to speak, but let Zhao Xing speak first.
Zhao Xing looked at the little fat man gratefully, and first bowed his hand to the remaining ten guys: "Today's battle is life and death brothers, my brother and I thank everyone, and I give you a cup of hello." ”
The food is nourishing, and the wine is a rare Jiangnan nourishing realgar in the capital, which shows the carefulness of the eldest lady.
Zhao Xing raised his glass, and the little fat man took the bowl directly: "The little wine cup is sulking, come and come, change the bowl." ”
In front of the prince, the last reserved detention disappeared completely because of this sentence, and all the people threw away the wine cup and picked up the big bowl ready to eat.
Zhao Xing looked at everyone holding the bowl, and still glanced at the little fat man, the meaning is very obvious, what you promised at the beginning, promise it again, don't chill everyone's hearts.
Of course, the little fat man understood, and directly raised the wine bowl again, and then said loudly: "First congratulate everyone on making a fortune, the fifty taels I promised you at the beginning, my sister changed it to one hundred taels, and it will be distributed to you brothers early tomorrow morning." ”
There was a burst of cheers in the house, one hundred taels, enough for everyone's rich family to live for ten years. The little fat man is really honest, and the British public is really bold.
A bowl of rice wine was put down, and the little fat man filled it for the ten guys, and then raised it: "This time I sacrificed two brothers, and my sister decided to give two hundred taels of pensions." ”
Although they were saddened by their brother's death, they were able to get an income of 200 taels for their family, and everyone was very comforted in addition to grief.
In China, for 5,000 years, filial piety to parents and care for children are all what men should do at present. one's own life can be exchanged for the stability of his parents, wife and children for decades, and for a man, this is the biggest responsibility.
At this time, everyone has forgotten the sorrow of the two brothers who died, but rejoiced for them - it was worth it.
"There is another one, I promised you the position of general general, my father agreed, you are not only the general, but also my Zhang Zhiji's personal soldier general." Then he pointed at Zhao Xing: "It's my brother's personal commander." ”
Everyone went crazy, shouting and forgetting all the pain and pain.
"Don't be too happy, everyone, I'm a fictitious title, my brother is still a brocade guard, it's not a forbidden army at all, hehehe, so, everyone with a glorious general military position, still a bare pole, or be the evil slave of our two brothers first, let's continue to be a gentleman, hehehe."
The total number of soldiers is at least twice as much as that of the ordinary total without being delayed and deducted, there is the best equipment, and there are channels for rapid rise, which is a great thing that everyone dreams of, only if there are no soldiers under him, whether he enters the military camp or follows the prince to mix the streets, everyone doesn't care about these, as long as it is an official, you can glorify the neighbors, as long as it is an official, it is enough to be far-sighted.
Far-sighted, this is the greatest filial piety of future generations to their ancestors.
