Chapter 34: Childe Returns Home
A few days later, Yang Ting finally returned home. He has been away for many years, and he has made some small achievements, so he is naturally looked at differently by his family, especially Sun, who has always thought that this son is vulgar, and he has been talking about him in recent years. On the day when Yang Ting was going home, she got up early in the morning, went to the kitchen to supervise the mother-in-law to cook a lot of meals, and from time to time sent people outside to inquire where they went.
Yang Xianrong also followed her mother, and the two looked towards the mouth of the alley.
"Mother, my brother won't recognize me, right?" Yang Xianrong asked, after all, when Yang Ting left last time, she was still a child, but now she is a girl.
Sun smiled and looked at Yang Xianrong carefully, compared with when she was a child, her face was a little thinner, her nose was straighter, and her eyebrows were thicker, but her general appearance had not changed, but she was lined up extremely tall in a long skirt of lake blue.
"It's almost unrecognizable." Sun said: "Your brother has been away for so many years, I'm afraid you will forget his appearance." ”
Yang Xianrong raised his face: "No." ”
Finally, the sound of horses' hooves came from the mouth of the alley, and Sun and Yang Xianrong immediately heard the reputation, and sure enough, a man dressed in white appeared at the mouth of the alley on a jujube red horse, which was a good sheep. Before the horse could be steady, he turned over and got off the horse, ran to Sun, knelt down and kowtowed three times, and then with tears on his face, he said, "Mother, my son is back." ”
Sun pulled Yang Ting up, only to see that his skin was dark, his lips were chapped and white, and there was a wound looming on his forehead, so she immediately felt a little distressed, she hugged Yang Ting tightly: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back." ”
Yang Xianrong stood obediently to the side, looking at this brother who had not been seen for a long time, this feeling was very familiar, but it was a little strange, and the appearance of the brother had changed a lot. What's different? Yang Xianrong looked at it carefully, as if there were many things that were different, but she couldn't remember what it was.
"Little girl, what are you looking at me for?" After Yang Ting finished talking to Sun about his parting thoughts, he moved his eyes to Yang Xianrong. He recognized his sister at a glance, and secretly marveled at the change in his sister, the original child has now begun to look like a beauty, but this stunned expression is exactly the same as when he was a child, he continued: "Don't you know your brother? ”
"Of course I do." Yang Xianrong laughed at this time, and gave Yang Ting a gentle salute: "Second brother." ”
"Yo." Yang Ting was surprised: "I haven't seen you for a few years, but this head actually understands the rules." ”
"Hmph," Yang Xianrong was not to be outdone: "You are not bad, you haven't caused trouble in the past few years, let Uncle Liu get rid of it." ”
"I'm getting sharper and sharper." Yang Ting smiled and pointed to Yang Xianrong, then hugged Sun and walked towards the house together.
Yang Ting first went back to his house to clean his hands, washed his face, and changed into homely clothes, and then walked to Sun's house.
Walking into the house, sure enough, the three people in the house surrounded a child who was not very stable in walking, one was holding a wave drum, and the other was holding a cloth ball, and the child was holding a cloth ball and throwing it to the ground, and he "giggled" and laughed. Yang Ting also laughed, he felt very close to this child, much closer than he was to his brother.
Yang Ting stepped forward, picked up the cloth ball, and gently threw it back to the child, who was stunned, trembling and retracting into his mother's arms, looking at the visitor with a little vigilance, and suddenly he "giggled" again.
"Look," Sun said with a loving smile, "These are uncles and nephews, and they don't recognize life." ”
Lin saw Yang Ting get up and stood up, Yang Ting saluted his sister-in-law in a dignified manner, and then took the child from Lin's hand, and called him softly with a "Ache". After teasing the child for a while, Archie became sleepy, and Lin asked the nurse to hug him, and the four of them had time to talk about family life.
The family has not changed much, except for the addition of a villain, and Yang Fu also has an errand, everything else is no different from when Yang Ting left. But Yang Ting has been different in recent years, that year, after he blocked the punishment for Liu Yao, he became a brother with him, and then he went to the Huotou Camp, where he stayed for three months, during the three months he did not relax, he still practiced martial arts diligently, and was favored by a general under Liu Yuan. After coming out of the Huotou camp, he followed the general, the general is a Han Chinese, surnamed Wu Zheng, in addition to his kung fu skills, he is also familiar with the art of war, and he has a lot of methods in leading troops, and he is deeply valued by Liu Yuan. This person appreciates Yang Ting's diligence very much, so after letting Yang Ting serve him tea for a few months, he accepted him as an apprentice and taught him what he had learned, so in just a few years, Yang Ting's ability has improved by leaps and bounds, and he was named a hundred chiefs more than half a year ago, and he has been in charge of dozens of people.
As for Liu Yao, he was officially included in the army after he turned thirteen, and later he was simply incorporated into Yang Ting's team and became a member of his subordinates.
Sun, like the rest of the mothers, always hopes that her son will become a dragon, before she poured all her hopes into the sheep possession, and then the sheep attached to the heart, never mixed up famous, and the sheep is something she has never been very fond of, always feel that he has no strength but does not like to take the right path, it is good to fight when he is young, causing trouble, so he has never placed hope on him, who would have thought that in the end, it was this son who did not pay attention to her since she was a child, and she had a little guilt about her previous attitude towards Yang Ting.
"You know what your father expects of you," Sun said, "but your brother has greatly disappointed him, but you have made your father full of praise, always saying that the hope of the sheep family is still in you." ”
Yang Ting glanced at Yang Xianrong meaningfully, and said to Sun: "Mother rest assured, my son will work hard to revitalize the lintel." ”
The mother and son were talking, no one noticed the embarrassment on the face of the Lin family next to her, she knew best what kind of temperament her husband was, why her husband was unwilling to be an official in this world, she also understood, she also felt that it didn't matter if she was a child, she could even accompany him to play crazy, but the contemptuous gaze of the exclusive people made her unacceptable. Even the Sun family dislikes his eldest son, thinking that he is not a normal person, let alone others?
Yang Xianrong saw Lin's discomfort, this sister-in-law married in and is not often with the family, after giving birth to Aqi last year, the parents were anxious to see their grandson, she often took the child out to walk around with her parents, she once asked the eldest brother why the sister-in-law did not love to come out, whether she did not like the family, the eldest brother told her, not that she did not like the family, but did not like the family and did not like him.
At that time, Yang Xianrong didn't understand the meaning of the eldest brother, and later after Yang Ting left home, she often went to the sheep courtyard to play, only to find that the sister-in-law is a very interesting and very smart person, the same as the eldest brother, but she likes the sister-in-law, but there is no way to persuade her mother to like this daughter-in-law who can't even do it in the morning and dusk.
"Sister-in-law," Yang Xianrong interrupted the mother and son chatting, and said to the Lin family, "My eldest brother went to the Yamen, why hasn't he come back yet?" ”
"It should be soon." Lin looked at Yang Xianrong and smiled, and said.
"Second brother, the eldest brother is also very powerful now," Yang Xianrong said to the sheep: "He is a master in a yamen, and the adults there listen to the eldest brother." ”
Yang Ting nodded, Sun didn't say anything, and Lin looked at Yang Xianrong with a little gratitude.
Yang Xianrong blinked his eyes, and said to Yang again: "Second brother, the eldest brother has already given birth to the eldest grandson of my Yang family, when will you marry a daughter-in-law?" ”
"Huh?" Yang was stunned, he never thought that this little girl would worry about such things for herself.
On the contrary, Sun seemed to be reminded, and echoed in a loud voice: "Rong'er is right, you are not too young, you can't delay any longer, this girl in Luoyang City is almost as old as you, and she is the same age as you, either ugly, or lacking a father and a young mother." ”
Of course, Yang Ting knows that he is old, but how can he understand the matter of marrying a wife, this has always been the words of his parents, and his parents have never mentioned marrying a wife for him, can he still take the initiative to mention it? Besides, there was no woman in the army, and even if he had an idea, he couldn't find anyone.
"How long can you stay when you come back this time?" Sun asked.
"More than half a month." Yang replied honestly, and then asked with a surprised face: "Mother doesn't want to get married to me within half a month, right?" ”
The three people in the room laughed, and in the laughter, Yang Xuanzhi and Yang Fu also walked in, and they also heard what a few people said, so Yang Xuanzhi opened his mouth and said: "It doesn't hurt that a good man starts a business first, and then starts a family." ”
Yang Ting hurriedly got up to salute his father, also knelt down and kowtowed three times, got up and made a bow to his brother, and then served tea to the two of them in turn, and then sat down again. Yang Xuanzhi is here, and the atmosphere at home is not as relaxed as just now, but Yang Xuanzhi asked about life in the army, and there is a sentence, Yang Ting is big, and that's it.
Even so, it didn't seem to have dampened Yang Xuanzhi's good interest, and what was even more rare was that he had been smiling since he entered the house, which was something he had never done before. Yang Ting secretly pondered that it was impossible for his father to be so happy because he came back, there must be other reasons.
Sure enough, Sun also saw Yang Xuanzhi's abnormality, so he asked, "What's wrong today?" Is the lord so interested? ”
Yang Xuanyi listened, his eyebrows and eyes were even more stretched, he laughed a few times "haha", and said: "Today is really a good day, Yang Tinghui comes from needless to say, this is even more good news." He pretended to look around at several people in the room mysteriously, and said, "Sun Xiu," said the name, he looked at the Sun family who was still frowning and reminded her again: "It's your father's fellow clan, the one who has been following King Zhao, who helped King Zhao do a good thing a few days ago, and now he has been promoted and has become a big celebrity around King Zhao." ”
