Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Direction of Home

Finally in the evening of the next day, Fang Jing and his party finally rushed out of Qinling before the sun set, but at this time they were camping not far from the edge of the official road, setting up a fire to make dinner, and the three little babies also understood that as long as they arrived at camping, they would either pick up stones or some firewood, although they would not be too far away, but they could also do something, or try to do something.

After dinner, everyone sat around the fire again, Fang Jing would always teach them something at this time, Fang Jing thought about whether to get a primary school in the village after returning home, so that the little children in the village could recognize some words and numbers, the village or small stones could be taught, thinking that Fangjia Village would get better and better in the future, Fang Jing believed that it would be like this.

It's a pity that there are not a few ploughing cattle in Fangjia Village, and then you have to buy some ploughing cattle, so that it is convenient for the people in the village to farm, there are few men in the village, farming is basically in the case of not ploughing the land, irrigate some water into the paddy field to soak, and then weed and then transplant seedlings, if there are ploughing cattle, it can also reduce labor, but also increase some yield.

Fang Jing has a lot of ideas, but he doesn't have much money at present, counting the money he sent home last time, it adds up to about 3,000 yuan, and it is possible to buy ploughing cattle, Fang Jing thought that after arriving in Jinzhou, he would go to see if there were any ploughing cattle to buy, if so, he would buy some ploughing cattle to go back, or go to Pingli County to buy them, as long as there were ploughing cattle, buy some, and one ploughing cow per household should be about the same.

Fang Jing thought about a lot of things, but there were a lot of things to do urgently, the houses of every family in the village were not very good, and they also wanted to renovate and build some better houses, but there was more money, Fang Jing hoped to come first, the earthen house of his own family, if there was really going to be a bit of an earthquake or something, it was estimated that it would fall after an earthquake, Fang Jing didn't want the whole family to be crushed at that time.

The next morning, I got up early in the morning and hurried, at the hour (17-19 o'clock), Fang Jing and his party rushed to the side of the Han River to get on the ferry, but they did not take a boat to the south that day, mainly because it was late, not far from the ferry, I found a guest house to stay, thinking about taking a boat to Jinzhou the next day, and then going to Pingli County after stopping in Jinzhou for a day, thinking that I could return to Fangjia Village in three or four days, this is only Fang Jing's planned itinerary, of course, rain is not ruled out.

The next day the sky drizzled, Chen Shi (7-9 o'clock) after the four people still led the donkey, came to the side of the ferry of the Han River, took a merchant ship, went to Jinzhou, people and donkeys are on a boat, stuffed full, in fact, this merchant ship is also loaded with some other people's goods, down the river, but not many boatmen to operate the boat, although the sky is drizzling, but it does not affect the travel, if it is heavy rain, then it is estimated that you have to dock at the ferry to rest, the rain is big, the river will be urgent, If you sail in the middle of the river, it can be a bit dangerous.

The speed of the boat is still very fast, it arrived in Jinzhou at noon, Fang Jing and his party paid for the boat, after getting off the boat, Fang Jing took the three little babies on foot, led the four donkeys to the north gate of Jinzhou City, but the three little babies were worried in their hearts, this Jinzhou City used to be the place where they begged, and it was also the place where they used to beg for a living, although now they have returned to Jinzhou, looking at this Golden State City, but still from time to time recalling the days of begging in Jinzhou City in the past, and I hope that I will no longer live such a life in the future.

"Don't be afraid, there's nothing to be afraid of, you have been to Chang'an City, how many people in Jinzhou City have been to Chang'an City, you have also seen Yiguo Gong, you have also seen King Qin, how many people in this Jinzhou City have seen it, no one dares to bully you, you don't have to worry, let alone be afraid." Fang Jing comforted the three nervous babies.

Fang Jing understands the three little babies, the three little babies in the past had to become little beggars, but now they have food and drink, and they are living very well, but no one wants to go back to the original days.

The group entered Jinzhou City through the north gate of Jinzhou City, and walked in the south direction of the city, passing by the United Army Mansion, Fang Jing thought about whether to enter the United Army Mansion to have a look, but after thinking about it, forget it, and there is no human relationship in it, everything that should be said has been said, and this favor is over.

Fang Jing took three little babies and lived in a guest house in the south of the city, the shopkeeper of the guest house had seen Fang Jing and their group a month ago, although he didn't know much about this little brother, but he couldn't stand the fact that people were rich Wow, rich guests have to be entertained, but no matter who you bring, what identity they used to be.

After arranging everything, Fang Jing took the three little babies to the place in Dongcheng that specializes in selling livestock, not to buy farming cattle, but to see how many farming cattle there are in Jinzhou City, and it is good to return to the village in a few days to discuss with the village, Fang Jing doesn't know how to cultivate cattle, otherwise he will buy them back directly, and he has to go to the state and county government yamen for the record to buy ploughing cattle, which also makes Fang Jing change his original idea.

After Fang Jing and the others came to the livestock market, they saw that there were not many livestock in the fence, there were only a few, there were more donkeys than the others, there were even fewer horses, and there were more than twenty ploughing cattle, but most of them were calves.

"Man, let me ask, how much copper is this ploughing ox?" Fang Jing came to a guy and asked.

"This guest officer, this ploughing cow is divided into ages and male and female, five or six years of male and strong cattle twenty and a head, the female is more expensive, but also twenty-five and a head, the calf is five and a head, the female is eight and a head, the older ones are cheaper, but they also need fifteen times, do you want more than the guest officer?" The guy looked at Fang Jing's dress, it was still very good, and he should be regarded as a person from a rich family.

"It's so expensive, and there are so many differences, so Pingli County is also responsible for you? Or is it different? Fang Jing opened her mouth and continued to ask the guy.

"Back to the guest officer, we are also operating in Pingli County, and the cattle in the entire Jinzhou County are basically in charge of our business." The guy quickly responded.

"Oh, that's fine, I'll come back if I need it, thanks buddy." Fang Jing asked about the general situation, and went back to the guest house with the three little babies.

The next morning, Fang Jing woke up, looked at the overcast sky, and didn't see any rain, so he woke up the three little babies, after washing, led the donkey, went out of the guest house and went in the direction of Pingli County, bought some food to eat on the way, this is also Fang Jing's habit, and they don't have time to cook and eat in the morning.

After leaving Jinzhou City, the three little babies saw the small dilapidated house where they used to live, and called out to Fang Jing softly, saying that they wanted to see the small dilapidated house where they had lived, Fang Jing listened to their shouts, and led the donkey to the direction of the small dilapidated house.

Coming to the wall of the small broken house, the three little babies got off the back of the donkey and stood in front of the small broken house, although the small broken house is still the small broken house, but the thatch on the roof is all falling, and it is no longer the small broken house of a month ago.

"Brother Jing." The three little babies stood quietly in front of the small dilapidated house, looking at the small dilapidated house where they had lived for a long time, and finally shouted at Fang Jing with their big heads.

"Let's go, you won't live in a little house like this again." Fang Jing took the three little babies on the back of the donkey and led them to the direction of Pingli County.

"After returning to Fangjia Village, I have to build a bamboo house for you, or build a brick house, otherwise there will be no place to live at home, now there is a mud house and a bamboo house at home, I can't live so many people, let's live in a bamboo house after I go home, and then I will see." Fang Jing led the donkey and walked forward slowly, without looking back, babbling in his mouth.

"Brother Jing, is the bamboo house good-looking? I haven't seen a bamboo house yet, have I? Xiaocao sat on the back of a donkey, holding her two elder brothers in front and back, yearning for the days after Fangjia Village.

"The bamboo house, it's beautiful, and you'll know if it's good when you get home." Fang Jing had to casually respond to this 100,000 why, otherwise, she would keep asking for a while.

Fang Jing and the others walked slowly on the official road like this, and arrived at Pingli County when it was almost dark, Fang Jing had to go to the guest house opened by Huang Meihua, but coincidentally, Huang Meihua was not there, so he had to wait for Aunt Hua the next day.

Staying in the guest house of Huang Meihua, I also ate some food provided by the guest house, and I didn't have time to make dinner, so I had to eat a little bit and went back to the house to rest, the three little babies were also tired for a day, stop and go, sometimes they would get off the back of the donkey and walk, and they would occasionally sit down on the side of the road to rest for a while, this way, it was really tired enough to choke the three little babies, and they fell asleep on the bed as soon as they arrived in the room, and they were probably very happy in their dreams.

The next morning, Fang Jing woke up, called the three little babies, and was about to go to wash, but at this time the door was ringing.

"Brother Jing, Brother Jing, are you up?" Wang Jizhi outside the door banged on Fang Jing's door and shouted loudly outside the door.

"Then, why did you come to the guest house so early?" Fang Jing opened the door, looked at the little guy and asked.

"Brother Jing, when my mother and I came to the guest house, I heard Uncle Tong say that Brother Jing came to the guest house last night, so I came to call you." Wang Jizhi was a little happy to see Fang Jing, and he didn't answer why he came over so early.

"Then you sit in the hall for a while, I'll wash up with them, and then go talk to your mother later." Fang Jing touched the little guy's head and said to him.

"Okay, Brother Jing." After Wang Jizhi finished speaking, he went downstairs.

After Fang Jing took the three little ones downstairs to wash, she came to the hall and saw Huang Meihua and Wang Jizhi sitting on a stool waiting for her.

"Aunt Hua, I'm back, are you okay?" Fang Jing saluted to Huang Meihua and said to Huang Meihua.

"Nephew Jing, you're back, how are you doing this way? How's it going? Huang Meihua stood up and looked at Fang Jing and asked with some concern.

"Aunt Hua, this journey is okay, after arriving in Chang'an City, I finally saw the prosperity of Chang'an City." Fang Jing told Aunt Hua about this journey and the events of Chang'an.

"That's good, that's good, it's okay, you mean you handed over the roster to King Qin? It's best to ask King Qin to help find it, but this owes King Qin a lot of favors, and King Qin is also a good prince. Huang Meihua listened to what Fang Jing said, and she was always relieved in her heart, but she didn't know about Fang Jing's affairs in Chang'an City, it wasn't that Fang Jing deliberately wanted to hide it from her, and it was better not to let her know about some things.

"Aunt Hua, what's the matter, that's it, I'll take them back to Fangjia Village in a while, it's still early, otherwise, it's a little late to go back." After Fang Jing and Huang Meihua talked about Chang'an's trip, they proposed to Huang Meihua to go home early.

Fang Jing shouted that the three little babies were ready to go back, Huang Meihua also knew the life experience of the three little babies, and knew that they were the children of her late husband, and she also felt sad about it, but fortunately she met her, otherwise she didn't know what would have happened.

"Then you should be careful on this road, and come back with a word if you have something." Huang Meihua said to Fang Jing.

"Brother Jing, I'm going with you too." Wang Jizhi shouted at Fang Jing.

"Don't go, your brother Jing is not going to play, this is going home, you are following your brother Jing to play, are you going to leave the old lady alone?" Huang Meihua glared at the little guy and shouted, completely like if you leave, look at the old lady I won't cry to show you.

"Okay then, I'll accompany my mother." Wang Jizhi had to compromise, this is just the daily life of this mother and son, thinking about this pair of mother and son in distress, they can be regarded as happy, much better than many others.

Fang Jing didn't say anything anymore, and took the three little babies to lead the donkey in the direction of Fangjia Village.
