346 Returning to the Hometown (4/11)

When entering the city, Liu Fugui deliberately wore the military uniform issued when he was in Wuchang Mansion, because there has been no war, and he cherishes the new clothes, and he looks at least eighty percent new.

That's it, Liu Fugui also deliberately sorted out the instrument, looked up and looked up at the plaque on the gate of Hanzhong Mansion, then took a deep breath and strode into the city.

The soldiers who were hiding in the shelter and guarding the gate in the cave of the city gate looked at the backs of Liu Fugui and the others, and they were obviously very envious.

"See, this uniform is so new, it can't be that it hasn't been fighting, right?"

"Don't talk nonsense, these are all elite cavalry troops directly under the Duke of Xingguo. You dare to say that they didn't fight, be careful that you can't eat and walk around! Their uniforms are said to have been issued not long ago! ”

"Ah, it's really more human than human, it's infuriating! Look at our clothes, mend and mend, when can we send a new set of clothes to show off! ”

"It's not easy, you can go to war, as long as the Ming soldiers who fight, they are all preferential!"

"Don't tell me, I'd love to go if I could. It is said that their military salaries are paid in full, and they are supervised by the brocade guards. If you have any questions, you can also sue the Jinyi Guard Yamen! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Of course, Liu Fugui didn't know that those soldiers who were also in the local army were actually very envious of them, who, according to later generations, belonged to the field army. Because of the "Regulations on the Preferential Treatment of Pensions for Ming Military Personnel", it is naturally popularized in the field army first, and if all soldiers in the Ming Dynasty want to enjoy this treatment, it must be stronger than the Ming national strength.

At this time, although he has been away from Hanzhong City for many years, he still feels so familiar and has not changed in particular. Maybe it's the end of the year, and there are still more pedestrians on the streets, even if it's snowy.

The shops on both sides of the street, the guys are all under their own roofs, shouting loudly, beckoning customers to buy New Year's goods.

"Come and see, come and see, the new silk, the best in the south, the most suitable for going out, will be sold out soon!"

"The jewelry created by the master of the Duan family is the most popular during the Chinese New Year, and there is not much left, so it's too early to buy it!"

"Pig's head, fresh pig's head!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Listening to these shouts, Liu Fugui suddenly had an impulse to buy some good things for his father and mother, as well as his younger brothers and sisters; However, just as he wanted to turn around, he touched the hard silver in his bosom, and he stood on his feet again.

No matter how good things are, they don't come home with silver!

So, Liu Fugui led the bag sent by the Duke of Guo and continued to walk to the home in his memory. Looking closer and closer, his pace was slowly picking up.

However, when he arrived at the corner of the street where his house was located, Liu Fugui suddenly stood again.

You could tell from his face that he was a little worried. After so many years away from home, is the family okay?

The snowflakes were falling on him, and if he had returned his usual life, he would definitely have slapped them off; However, at this time, the worry in his heart made him forget everything. What I think about in my mind is all the bits and pieces of my family in my impression.

The snowflakes piled up more and more, on the hat, on the shoulders, and soon piled up.

"Who is this? If you don't go back here, shouldn't it be ......" There was movement behind Liu Fugui, and before he finished speaking, he finally recognized that this snowman was wearing a Ming military uniform, and he was immediately startled and shut up immediately.

The imperial army is outside the city, and at this time, including the old men in the city, they have restrained a lot, who dares to offend the soldiers.

But this person is also curious, why is a soldier standing here. While bypassing Liu Fugui, he turned his head to look at his face.

At first glance, the man was immediately surprised, looked at it carefully, and suddenly exclaimed, "You...... Are you the boss of the Liu family? ”

Liu Fugui came back to his senses at this time, and when he heard the sound, he also recognized that this person was his neighbor Lao Wangtou, who had something to do with the yamen, and was the cell head of the prefect's yamen.

As soon as he saw an acquaintance, even if he had the impression that Lao Wangtou's family had always been high-spirited on this street, Liu Fugui also felt cordial, so he nodded, and said while the snowflakes fell on his head: "It's me, I'm ......"

He wanted to ask about his family.

However, after the old king looked him up and down, he didn't wait for him to finish, as if he had jumped up from the ground, and then ran quickly into the alley, shouting as he ran: "My son, my son, your son is back, your son is back......

Liu Fugui was suddenly a little dumbfounded, father-in-law? Who is his father-in-law?

In his impression, Lao Wang's family actually looked down on others. But at this time, he was shouting affectionately "father-in-law", could it be that he was married to his own family?

He was just thinking about it, when he saw that the old Wang Tou had already run to the door of his house in his impression, and kicked out, but just when he was about to kick the door, Liu Fugui saw that he forcibly stopped his foot, but opened the door with his shoulder, and shouted on the opposite side: "Father-in-law, your son is back, Fugui is back!" ”

After shouting, he didn't stop for a moment, and immediately turned around and ran home.

In Liu Fugui's house, the door of the faΓ§ade opened, and an old man with gray hair appeared, and when he saw that the courtyard was empty, he said a little puzzled: "Did I hear it wrong just now?" Why do you seem to hear him call me my father-in-law, isn't it Lao Liu? ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he was knocked out of the way, and an old woman rushed out of it, shouting excitedly: "Rich, is it rich? Rich is back? ”

From afar, Liu Fugui heard this voice, and suddenly, his eyes were red, and he didn't care about it anymore, and immediately rushed forward, and the snowflakes fell, revealing a new Ming military uniform, and rushed to the door of his house.

The tall figure suddenly appeared at the door, making everyone in the courtyard stunned.

For a moment, the sound of yelling just now suddenly fell silent.

Liu Fugui looked at the two old men in the courtyard, one behind the other, and immediately burst into tears. In his impression, his father and mother should not have worked so hard at all, they were only in their forties!

"Bang", Liu Fugui no longer cared about the new military uniform on his body, knelt down heavily, and shouted excitedly: "Dad, mother, I'm back!" ”

Hearing this, the stunned old woman, who was closest to him, rushed over, hugged his head, and wept with joy. Then, he immediately held Liu Fugui's face, looked at it carefully, and couldn't stop the tears on his smiling face: "It's really rich, that's right, it's Fugui who is back, my son is back!" ”

Liu Fugui's father, just behind the two of them, watching this scene, was also full of tears, but he didn't speak.

And in the house, a loud voice came out: "Give me pants to wear, don't rob me, I'm going to take a look!" ”

"You wore it out yesterday, and today it's my turn to wear it, and I want to see my brother too!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

At the same time, on the street, a woman holding a child also cried out in surprise: "Big brother, is it really you?" ”

"Good daughter-in-law, how can I lie to you as a father-in-law, it's your brother who is back!" The old king's voice immediately rang out, as if it were his son.

The woman turned her head to look at him, and it dawned on her. I have always been angry at home, but just now my father-in-law was suddenly very polite to him, and told himself not to mention the past again, the Wang family will definitely treat themselves well in the future, it turns out that the eldest brother is back.

However, looking at the eldest brother's clothes, he should have gone to be a soldier, why did the old king become so polite?

This thought was only a flash, and the woman, that is, Liu Fugui's sister, was immediately immersed in the joy of the return of her relatives.

At the door, the neighbors all went out to watch the excitement one after another.

Whispering is inevitable.

"It's really Liu Fugui who is back, and those who haven't heard from him for all these years think he died outside!"

"Didn't you hear that he seems to be a thief, why did he come back in a military uniform?"

"Don't talk nonsense, look at the old king, what do you mean by being so polite? Could it be that he will be afraid of wealth and wealth? It's just a big soldier! ”

"It's just that he is empty-handed, just that one bag, he must not be mixing well!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

In the courtyard, after being excited for a while, Liu Fugui and his mother finally remembered something, so she immediately helped her son to stand up, then turned around and said: "Old man, look, Fugui is finally back!" ”

Speaking of this, she touched the military uniform Liu Fugui was wearing, patted off the snowflakes, and said happily: "Look, these clothes are still new!" ”

But who knows, Liu Fugui and his father lowered his face and shouted: "Ran away without saying a word, I thought you died outside!" Now that he is coming back as a big soldier, is he short of money or hungry and finally remembers this home? ”

Hearing this, Liu Fugui and his mother hurriedly helped her son speak: "See what you say?" The son didn't come back and nagged that he was not safe, and as soon as he came back, he lost his temper again. What is this for? Look, didn't my son come back with something? ”

Hearing this, the neighbors who usually had problems with the Liu family became angry outside.

"Yo, I really have to bring something back, I don't know what it is?"

"What can the soldier bring back, pick up something casually, if you want me, at least use a big burden to decorate the faΓ§ade!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

When Liu Fugui and his father heard this, he immediately walked to the door in a few steps, and shouted at these yin and yang strange people: "Will my son carry the valuable things in his hands, and still want you to worry about it?" ”

"Let's go, go back to the house!" When Liu Fugui saw it, she took Liu Fugui's hand and said quickly.

She guessed that those individuals would definitely be heckled when they turned around, and she didn't want her son to lose face.

But who knows, Liu Fugui didn't leave at all, but just said to his father: "Dad, the most valuable thing that the child brought is in the bag." ”

With that, he knelt down to his father and took the bag in both hands.
