Volume 1 Crossing the rivers and lakes and wading into temples Chapter 5 Are you very good at fighting?
Halfway up the mountain, Ye Chen saw Chen Bing and asked with a smile: "Didn't you get taken away by Chen Dabo, why did you come back again?" ”
Chen Bing snorted and said, "Don't think that I don't know what stinky fart your kid is holding, don't you want to break me up and sneak into the city alone, so that I can go to Nali Xiangyuan to have a good time." ”
After a long time, Ye Chen asked with red eyes, "Have you thought about Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen?" They are not young anymore, and the other uncles and uncles in the village are holding their grandchildren at this time. ”
"It's okay, I said when my father took me back just now, I will wait a few years for me to come out, and give them a daughter-in-law from the city to come back, and then there will be ten or eight more of him, so that they can't bring it." Chen Bing had a harmless smile on his face.
"Then Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen, they agree that you will go with me?" Ye Chen asked.
Chen Bing checked the burden on his hand and replied: "My father said, Chenzi has a good heart, and it is good for me, I will not suffer a loss if I follow Chenzi, make a good career, don't embarrass our village." My mother also asked me to tell you that if you don't eat well and dress warmly outside, we'll go home. ”
Ye Chen walked forward with his head buried in his head, and the tears on the robe on his chest were one, two, and three......
Mr. Wu said that Bingzi is kind by nature and treats you like a brother, if you want to go, he will definitely follow.
It's just like that, brothers!
The two walked for half an hour, and finally saw an old man driving an ox cart on the road and also walking to the county seat, Ye Chen and the old man discussed a ride, and then the two brothers lay flat on the flatbed cart, with a grass in their mouths, which was quite comfortable.
After entering the county seat, the two brothers thanked the old man and walked into a small restaurant.
"Little brother, please bring me two a plate of green vegetables and four bowls of rice." Ye Chen smiled at the restaurant junior.
"Okay!" Xiao Er hunched over and pulled the rag off his shoulder to wipe the table and said, "The two of you objectively want to order something, even if you order, the small shop has everything, don't look at our small shop, the taste is quite good." ”
Ye Chen smiled and said, "No, it's enough for the two of us." ”
The little second continued: "Are the two of you objectively here to come to the city to find a job? After a while, the two of you can go to the vegetable market in the east of the city to have a look, and generally large families will post there to recruit workers. ”
In China, spreading posts is a common saying for recruiting people from large households, small workshops, restaurants, etc., and even the recruitment of auxiliary soldiers in the guard barracks of various yamen is laughed by the people as official posts.
Chen Bing took over the conversation and said, "Little brother, our brothers are not here to work. ”
"Then you two are here to hang out in this county, say it earlier, I'll introduce you, say, where do you want to play, I'll show you the way." Xiao Er said with a smile.
Chen Bing continued: "That's the case, our brothers want to go to the military camp to experience the experience, I don't know if the little brother can tell us where to sign up." ”
Xiao Er was a little embarrassed and said: "The two of you are objectively unlucky, we had a post a month ago, but now the time has passed, according to the regulations of the imperial court, those who fail to recruit into the camp within the specified time every year can only wait for the next year to sign up." ”
Ye Chen and Chen Bing glanced at each other, and they could see a trace of gloom in each other's eyes. Then Ye Chen said: "I'm tired of my little brother, please serve the food quickly, my brother and I are almost hungry." ”
"Okay, wait a minute, I'll go to the next place." After saying that, Xiao Er ran to the kitchen.
Chen Bing asked in a low voice: "Chenzi, what should I do, the two of us finally came out, and if we go back to the village like this, we won't be laughed at by others." ”
Ye Chen looked at Chen Bing and said, "Bingzi, since I've come out, I won't go back until I make a name for myself, it's okay, I'll talk about it after eating first." ”
Chen Bing nodded and looked at the prosperous scene outside the store, and couldn't help but be distracted. It's no wonder that before arriving in Nameless Town, it was still too small, and even the town's bazaar was rarely visited. Later, he fled to the nameless town, and he never entered the city, he felt that the eighteen years had been in vain, and he used to hear the people in the village say how extravagant the life of the rich was, and he didn't feel anything at the time, but now he vaguely understood what he had when he entered the city.
After eating, the two walked in the market, selling toys, food, rouge gouache, etc., the two were dazzled, where have they seen this meeting in the village for so many years!
The small distance from the restaurant to the east of the city was stunned by the two of them for half an hour.
At the same time, the city east street Lin Mansion. The housekeeper Lin Bo stood under the courtyard wall, and was raising his head and shouting: "Miss, you come down quickly, it's too dangerous, if the master knew that you were like this, he wouldn't let you out of the house." ”
I saw a young girl sitting above the courtyard wall, dressed in a light cyan robe, with a pair of milky white boots on her feet, and a black hair tied in a ponytail, which made people feel very refreshing and capable at first glance.
The girl shouted, "Lin Bo, you all stand down, what should you do, leave me alone." ”
The girl tilted her head and looked outside the courtyard wall, and continued: "I will come back in a while, and you are not allowed to follow me, otherwise I will hide, so that you will not find me, and you will die in a hurry." After speaking, he turned over and jumped, jumped off the wall, ignored the shouts of the people behind him, and ran quickly in the direction of the vegetable market.
The girl's name is Lin Yanyan, and she is the daughter of Lin Zhijiang, the fourth-grade staff general of the Annan Provincial War Camp. Lin Zhijiang usually trains recruits in the barracks, is busy with military affairs, and rarely goes home. In addition, Lin Yanyan's mother has been gone for a long time, so he is obedient to this only daughter, but on one point, he is not allowed to leave the Lin Mansion without permission, because he is an old-fashioned old man who always feels that it is better for girls to show up less before they leave the cabinet.
On East Street, Lin Bo, who was out of breath, trembled anxiously, Miss was gone, if he met some bad people, he would have to do it. He turned his head to a subordinate and said, "Go to the barracks and inform the master, just say that the young lady has run out again." ”
"Yes!" The subordinate nodded at him, and then ran in the direction of the barracks.
In the Chengdong vegetable market, Ye Chen and Chen Bing turned around and didn't find a few people who spread posts, and both of them were about to wilt. Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd, and two sergeants walked up to the wooden platform and shouted: "The Annam Provincial War Barracks is now recruiting two cooks, and the requirements are very simple, they can make all kinds of pasta. With that, one of the sergeants stepped down and posted the recruitment notice in his hand on the recruitment list. Everyone in the crowd, look at me, I look at you, no one dares to come forward to sign up.
Ye Chen and Chen Bing discussed in a whisper: "Otherwise, let's go to unveil the list first and enter the barracks." ”
Chen Bing nodded, and just as he was about to step forward, he heard the sergeant say again: "Please folks, don't unveil the list at will, there is no joke in the army, if you find that someone cheats us for the money of two or two months, military law will be engaged." ”
Chen Bing, who was just about to take a step, retracted his foot stupidly, turned his head and whispered to Ye Chen: "Chenzi, do you know how to make noodles with noodles?" ”
Ye Chen shook his head and said, "No, I can't eat noodles a few times a year, how can I have that thing." ”
After a while, two lords who looked a little obese lifted the notice and said to the sergeant with a smile: "Master, we can try it, as long as we give enough flour and make seven or eight kinds of pasta." ”
The sergeant looked at the two of them, smiled and said, "Report to our soldier camp tomorrow, don't be late." ”
Ye Chen stepped forward and stopped in front of the sergeant, and said with a smile: "This eldest brother, our brothers have some skills in their hands, they want to join the army and serve the country, and please be accommodating with the two eldest brothers and take us to the barracks." As he spoke, Ye Chen stuffed the few taels of silver from his arms into the hands of one of the sergeants, but the sergeant said: "Don't come to this set, rules are rules, our general said, unruly soldiers are not good soldiers!" ”
The two sergeants turned around and left, leaving Ye Chen standing still scratching his head casually, and smiling embarrassedly at the people around him.
At this time, a hand patted Ye Chen's shoulder and said, "Are you very good at fighting?" ”
