Chapter 55: Homecoming

Follow the Wusong River to Taozhai Town, an important town in Songjiang, and then change to a carriage, and the group arrived at Huating in the afternoon of the same day.

Lu Bin did not continue his escort mission, and Jin Shanwei commanded Tongzhi Hou Jigao to take over and send Sun Chengen, Qian Yuan and others all the way into the city.

Hurriedly bidding farewell to everyone, Qian Yuan unconsciously quickened his pace, and walked quickly all the way to the mouth of Zhuangyuan Alley, and he woke up suddenly.

Self in a past life...... Every time I leave home, I always feel excited, and every time I go home, I always feel like I have entered a besieged city again.

But now I ...... Perhaps influenced by his predecessor, Qian Yuan was anxious to see his family, and the figure of his mother and sister often came to mind.

After slowing down and speeding up again, Qian Yuan smiled dumbly in his heart, this is not a bad thing.

In this strange era, with care, there is a feeling of home, otherwise, for safety, Qian Yuan would have been able to run to the Qinhuai River alone to be at ease, anyway, the Japanese would not be able to attack Nanjing City.

Qian Yuan, who was walking quickly, didn't notice that the passers-by he met from time to time in the alley looked at him with a look of surprise.

Obviously, what Qian Yuan did in Hangzhou had already spread to Songjiang.

His eyes fell on the closed door, and before Li Si stepped forward, someone inside happened to push the door out.

"Uncle." Qian Yuan saluted respectfully, and in several letters from home, his mother mentioned that his uncle would come to accompany him every once in a while.

After being startled by the courtyard with a sword and a sword at the door, Lu Shi heard a familiar voice and grabbed Qian Yuan's arm in surprise, "Brother Yuan, you are finally back, but you are worried about us to death!" ”

Before Qian Yuan could reply, a sharp but not piercing cry came from inside, "Yuan'er is back!" ”

Qian Yuan hurriedly crossed the threshold to support his mother, "My son is not filial, which makes my mother worried." ”

Her mother, Tan, was also in her forties, but she looked like an old woman on the verge of death, and her dry eyes quickly moistened.

"There are big and small filial pieties, Brother Yuan went to Hangzhou to avenge his father and brother, this is great filial piety." Lu smiled and persuaded: "Now the name of Brother Yuan has spread all over Zhejiang and Nanzhili, and everyone knows that the Qian family of Huating is a hero again." ”

Tan was born in Yihuang Tan, although he is a scholarly family, but he has not read since he was a child, and he has not seen much, so he immediately wiped his eyes when he heard this, and a smile appeared on his face.

For her, her son returned home safely and won a great reputation, this is the biggest happy event, she naturally would not have thought that Qian Yuan was alone in Zhejiang, how much thought he had spent, and what kind of risk he had taken.

"Little sister." Qian Yuan looked at the half-grown girl who still had tears on her face on the side, and smiled gently, "I've worked hard for you in the past half a year, my brother has brought good things, and I will reward you later." ”

Although the ten-year-old girl was excited, she still bowed politely, "It's good that my brother is back." ”

Qian Yuan frowned slightly, the little sister had a very detached temperament before leaving home, why was she so restrained now.

But just when he got home, Qian Yuan didn't take these little things to heart, turned around and walked to the door, beckoning: "These days are the same as in Hangzhou, the food and lodging are together, Li Si, you will arrange, Zhang San, you go to find a trading house." ”

"This trip to Hangzhou to avenge my father and brother, if you don't help you, it will be hopeless, Qian is here to thank you." Qian Yuan bowed his hand, "Whether you return home or stay, the Qian family will give you a lot of money." ”

Everyone at the foot of the stairs was a little moved, in this era, the status of scholars is unimaginable in later generations, and the scholars with meritorious names are even higher.

Most of these people are from the industry, and what they do is to work hard to make money, where have they experienced this kind of scene.

"Don't dare to be a young master's thank you." Zhang San looked back at everyone before continuing: "Everyone has discussed, how difficult the world is now, I will follow the young master in the future, so I can settle down at home and be stable." ”

Except for Li Si, a scholar, as well as Yang Wen and Wang Yi, who had already invested in Qian Yuan's sect, everyone else knelt on one knee in unison, "Please take it in, young master." ”

Qian Yuan nodded slightly, and said in a slightly accentuated tone: "When you enter my door, you must abide by my rules, you all know my temper." ”

Seeing that everyone was silent, Qian Yuan nodded Zhang San, "You are a local, so you can rent or buy a few houses nearby, and this time you ......are in Jiading."

After a pause, Qian Yuan continued: "Thirty taels of silver for each family, I will go to worship in person tomorrow." ”

Although he was robbed by Jin Lao Da on the road this time, Qian Yuan grabbed it with his backhand, and later most of the gifts from the big families in Jiading City were worth a lot of money, and now Qian Yuan has money.

Wang Yi, who was silently watching this scene on the side, had a unique emotion, in Jiading City, these guards of the Qian family were all obeyed by Qian Yuan's orders, whether it was to rush into battle to kill the enemy, or to confront the Lu family's own soldiers, and even Zhang San dared to put a steel knife on the neck of a Bapin County Cheng.

Qian Yuan in Jiading City is very authoritative, and the control of his subordinates is also extremely strict, and now he has returned to his hometown, giving away a lot of money, and compensating the deceased, showing his gentle means.

Wang Yi thought so in his heart, this Songjiang Xiucai attaches equal importance to grace and power, as Zheng Ruozeng commented, very much like Zeng Gong back then, maybe he can really clear up the grievances of Zeng Gong in the future.

Everyone kowtowed at the foot of the steps and threw themselves into the Qian Yuan Sect, in the past half a year, they went from Huating to Hangzhou, and then to Ningbo, and then encountered a big war in Jiading, as long as the head did not enter the water, they knew that the young master of the Qian family in front of him had a bright future in the future.

Although he had long known from his husband's letter that his nephew had changed a lot, Lu was still a little incredulous.

The nephew in front of him, who had not yet grown a beard, stood on the steps, raising his hands and feet with extraordinary momentum, and at the bottom of the steps, a brave man with a sword at his waist, a gun in his hand and even armor on his body bowed down to him.

Looking at the figure of Zhang San leading the guards away, a smile appeared on the corner of Qian Yuan's mouth, after the battle of Jiading, they already faintly had the prototype of elite soldiers.

Even under the deliberate guidance of Qian Yuan, these people consciously lined up when they walked every day, and this scene once made Jin Shanwei commander Tongzhi Hou Ji Gao admire.

But then, Qian Yuan had a little headache.

After a moment of astonishment, Tan began to ask non-stop questions.

"Why did you come back so late?"

"Isn't it decided in April?"

"What happened in Jiading City?"

"Who's dead again?"

Helping his mother into the house, Qian Yuan poured a cup of tea and drank it all, touched his little sister's bun, and said lightly: "That Zhang Siwei also did a big case before, and this time he was implicated, so I didn't leave until he was escorted to Nanjing." ”

Lu Shi was silent, she was quite well-informed, and knew that Zhang Siwei died violently before he arrived in Nanjing.

"After that, I encountered a small group of Japanese robbers in Jiading City, so I waited in the city for a few days, and then went on the road after the Japanese retreated." Qian Yuan tried his best to keep things small and said, "Don't worry, mother, I met Yi Zhai Gong in Jiading City, escorted by officers and soldiers, and it is very safe." ”

The Lu family couldn't hold back any longer, "Brother Yuan, what you said is light, Yi Zhai Gong is trapped in Jiading City, not to mention Huating, even Suzhou Mansion has been alarmed!" ”

"Ahem." Qian Yuan coughed vigorously twice, glanced at the Lu family, and said with a smile: "Anyway, it has nothing to do with me." ”

Lu looked at Qian Yuan with surprised eyes, in the past, this nephew would hype up every similar thing, lest others not know, but he didn't expect that now it was the opposite.
