Under the scorching sun, birds were hovering in the low sky, looking for food on the ground, and on a big tree not far away, there was a nest of chicks waiting to be fed; The river was flowing in a tumultuous stream, and a frog with a group of tadpoles was swimming; It seems to be an ordinary act, but it is actually a great name.

The trees and grass are much more lush than in the previous days, and the crops in the field have grown taller, and the farmer uncle has already worked hard in the field, all of them are sweaty, close, and can still pull the family from time to time, and after resting, it is very good to be able to lie on the ground and smoke a pot of cigarettes.

It is said that Zhao Jin came to Zhang Wenbo's house, simply packed up the things at home, and accompanied the second elder all the way to the capital.

The road is far away, bumpy and uneven, the second elder is an old man, how can he withstand this toss, so on the way back, it is much slower than when Zhao Jin came alone.

Zhao Jin arranged the groom along the way, and if he could be slow, he would be slow, but the second elder could still be cooler in the car, and Zhao Jin would be miserable, the scorching sun was on his head, and his clothes were already wet with sweat and stuck to his body. There was dust on the road again, this sweat and dust were mixed together, extremely uncomfortable, Zhao Jin endured it like this, his face was black sweat stains, Zhao Jin took a towel, kept wiping his face, and after a while, even the towel changed color.

In the evening, Zhao Jin found a good inn and opened a room for the second elder, the two elders were old, and it was inconvenient to go up and down the stairs, Zhao Jin called the store guys, ordered the meal, and specially arranged to make it lighter, so as not to make the second old man unaccustomed to eating.

A few dishes were put on the table, Zhao Jin served rice to the second elder, the second elder had been facing the loess with his back to the sky for half his life, and his meals were mainly coarse grains and wild vegetables.

Zhang's mother muttered: "Young man, you order so many dishes, it will cost a lot of silver, you sit down and eat with us, we can't eat so much, and the rest is wasted." But this food is so delicious, come, old man, you try this,"

Zhao Jin said: "Auntie, it doesn't cost much silver, your second elder can eat with peace of mind, I, I have already eaten it just now, these meals are specially called for your second elder, if it is not enough, I will arrange the kitchen to make some," Hey, Zhao Jin drooled while saying, the last time I ate that good meal, it was invited by Zhang Wenbo, but now it is different, no matter how greedy you are, you have to endure it.

The old man said: "Young man, don't ask for so many dishes next time, the silver must be saved, and the life can last long,"

However, this meal is really delicious, and the second elder has no spare money to eat on weekdays, although he is already full, for fear of wasting a trace of food and vegetables, he stubbornly eats the remaining vegetables on the plate in one bite, and puts the rice grains that fell on the table in his mouth.

After the second elder was full of food and drink, Zhao Jin called the store, cleaned up the table, and asked the store to bring hot water for the second elder to soak his feet, everything was arranged, Zhao Jin washed up and down, lay on the bed to rest, and the fatigue and tiredness of the day were vented in this snoring.

Zhao Jin was so attentive, he didn't dare to ask for anything, just so that the second elder could say a good word in front of Zhang Wenbo, and he was satisfied.

This way I also walked with peace of mind, I didn't encounter any bandits, and there were no thunderstorms, just tired.

After Zhang Wenbo talked with Zhao Jin that day, he returned to the official house and began to clean up the house, and only when his parents were taken over by Zhao Jin could they live in; But since that day, there have been some days to today, but there is no news from them, which can make Zhang Wenbo anxious, sighing all day long, frowning, and uncertain, especially doing things around the emperor, for fear of any mistakes and omissions, and pacing back and forth when he returns home, not thinking about tea and dinner, thinking, Zhao Jin, Zhao Jin, I thought you were quite clever, why don't you know how to write a letter? How is this good?

Of course, Zhao Jin is clever and smart enough, but from the day he saw Zhang Wenbo's parents, his spirit began to tense, and he only cared about taking care of Zhang Wenbo's parents along the way, for fear of encountering something wrong, so he could only go back with his head on the errand; Halfway through the journey, I remembered to inform Zhang Wenbo that I couldn't write.

Therefore, when staying in the hotel on this day, Zhao Jin arranged the second elder first, and then went to find the bookkeeper in the store, he is a cultured person, and it is natural to write a letter, it depends on whether people are willing to help with this; It is not an exaggeration to say that Zhao Jinzui will come to things, this smiling face greets each other, good words are repeated, and Mr. Accounting is comfortable listening to it, but it is just a trivial matter, and he responds to it in one bite.

In this way, Zhao Jin and Mr. Settler said a general meaning:

has received the second elder, and now he is on the way, and he will be able to arrive in Beijing in three or five days, so that Zhang Wenbo can rest assured that the two elders are safe and sound, and he will take good care of his parents.

Zhao Jin said here, Mr. Accounts has already prepared pen, ink, paper and inkstone, according to Zhao Jin's meaning, brush a few strokes, and write a letter. At dawn, Zhao Jin hurriedly sent the letter, and the speed of the letter was much faster than Zhao Jin's.

Just when Zhang Wenbo was still pacing, there was finally news from his parents, and his hanging heart finally fell into his stomach, and his previous anxiety turned into excitement.

After a long absence for a few months, when we meet again, leaving is a concern, and the separation is full of thoughts, you have a pursuit, how can I be powerless to stay. I resolutely turned around, already full of tears, how could I have let go, let go of the carelessness.

Zhao Jin took the second elder all the way and finally came to the foot of the city gate. The capital is no better than the countryside, where have the two elders seen such a world, since entering the city, their eyes have begun to have nowhere to place, and the scenery is good everywhere; Zhao Jin quickened his pace, accompanied the second elder, and rushed to Zhang Wenbo's residence.

Zhang Wenbo has been waiting at home for a long time, looking at his parents in front of him, Zhang Wenbo cried with joy, and finally through his own efforts, let the old man who has worked hard for himself for most of his life leave the land of the broken tile and cold kiln, and repay the kindness of his parents is no longer just a thought, he has done it, and there is no need to live that kind of poor life in the future, and his parents are no longer the days of coarse grains and wild vegetables.

"Dad, mother!" Zhang Wenbo shouted out with a crying voice, "Let you suffer, the child kowtows to you," and knelt down as he spoke.

Zhang's mother burst into tears instantly, and hurriedly went to support her son: "Son, what are you doing here, get up, get up,"

In this way, a family of three hugged each other, crying and crying, just a few months, life is like heaven and earth, their hearts have their own complexities, and they want to vent out.

At this moment, Zhao Jin was watching from the side, looking extremely lonely and lonely, but the stone in his heart finally landed, and he lived up to Zhang Wenbo, and the trust he received was successfully completed. However, since the day he went to Zhang Wenbo's house, Zhao Jin's heart of missing his mother has become stronger and stronger day by day, and in a few days, he seems to have grown up all of a sudden, becoming much more mature than before, and he secretly swore that he would get ahead and bring his mother to live a good life. Sometimes a simple little thing is the nourishment for our growth.

After a family of three crying was enough, Zhang Wenbo saw Zhao Jin next to him, but he was instantly taken aback. If you want to say why, it is the change in appearance, although Zhao Jin is not good-looking, he can greet customers in the store all day long, and he is also fine-skinned and tender-skinned, but he has not seen it in the past few days, as if he has changed a pair of skin and bones, dark cheeks, and a layer of skin on his neck, and the whole person looks like he has lost a lot of weight.

Zhang Wenbo stepped forward at this time, and naturally greeted him with a smile: "This patronizes himself and leaves you aside." But you don't need to open your mouth, you can see from your appearance that you have suffered a lot! ”

Then continued: "The official said, this matter is done, the official will not treat you badly, there is just a lack of a steward at home, you can stay for the time being, follow me, and make more friends, it's better than you do chores in the inn, are you willing?"

Zhao Jin heard this, and secretly rejoiced, this was in his heart, this was exactly what he wanted, so he hurriedly knelt down and replied: "My lord, the villain is back to make a business." Thank you for looking down on the slave, it is the blessing of the slave to be able to do things by the side of the adult, from now on, the slave will be a good thing at home since he is a saddle and a horse, and he will live up to the expectations of the adult. ”

After Zhao Jin finished speaking, he began his status as a minion, first moved the old man from the car, then boiled water and made tea, cleaned the courtyard, and got busy in an orderly manner.

Although it is the same work of serving people, the identity is very different from before, which is a world of difference! Zhang Wenbo's words ignited Zhao Jin's hope for life, and Zhao Jin seemed to see the dawn of life. Yes, how many people squeezed their heads, and the things they were thinking about in their dreams fell on Zhao Jin's head today, what kind of people do what kind of work, of course, the premise is that you have to have this ability and get into the eyes of others.

In the evening, Zhang Wenbo instructed Zhao Jin to go to the street to prepare wine and food, and his parents worked hard for a few days to entertain the second elder. First, to celebrate his high school, second, to repay his parents' kindness with fame, and third, to his own ability, since then, to say goodbye to the countryside, to take his parents to live in the capital, but also count his own thoughts for many years, it is indeed worth celebrating.

Zhao Jin came to this street, which tavern's food is delicious, whose proprietress is beautiful and coquettish, Zhao Jin is better than Zhang Wenbo. Zhao Jin walked into a tavern, packed a few good dishes, carried a pot of wine, paid the silver, and hurried back to the house.

These three glasses of wine aroused Zhang Wenbo's childhood suffering, in front of his relatives, Zhang Wenbo looked extremely fragile and cried, the second elder is okay, you talk about the past with a word, and the family will cry and laugh; There are good times and bad times in this life, who can say clearly? But whether it is from good to bad, or from bad to good, may we all be able to take care of ourselves.

Originally, Zhang's mother planned to make this dinner by herself, but Zhang Wenbo forcibly stopped her, thinking that picking up her parents to the capital was to let the second elder enjoy life, and he couldn't let the second elder work anymore. If this is the case, there is still a shortage of cooks and maids, so that the expenses of the family will be large, and I don't know if my own money can provide for the family, but the officials of other families have a big business, and the servants and maids cannot be counted, so how to deal with it? Is it really hiding from the world and reaching out to make money? Zhang Wenbo shuddered, not daring to continue to think about it.
