Chapter 163: Zhao Yi's Family
June in Chang'an is already very hot. Knowing that it was hissing on the willow tree, the leaves were curling and hanging down weakly.
Zhang Yunwen sat on the window table on the second floor of the natural residence, shaking a pu fan in one hand and sending a teacup to his mouth in the other. On this hot day, drinking herbal tea is still too hot.
On the other two sides of the table, Li Yu and Zhi Rou sat each with a fan in their hands, and their shirts were half-undone, revealing a touch of snowy bandeau. Zhang Yunwen stared there while drinking tea.
It is separated from outsiders.
"Dengzi, what to see!" Li Yu rolled his eyes and said coquettishly.
"Look at the lady!" Zhang Yunwen grinned, and his expression was very similar to a hooligan who was molesting girls and girls on the street.
Noticing that Zhi Rou's eyes on the side were slightly dim, Li Yu smiled and said, "There is another lady over there, why don't you look at it?" ”
Zhang Yunwen was about to speak, when suddenly there was a knock on the door: "My lord, what you asked the villain to do has been done, but there seems to be something wrong with the family!" ”
As soon as he heard this voice, Zhang Yunwen immediately knew that this person was the little guy he sent to deliver a message to Zhao Yi's house, and listening to his words, something seemed to have happened to Zhao Yi's family. At the moment, he didn't mean to laugh, stood up, and said to the second daughter: "You go back first, I'm going to Sanyuan County to have a look!" ”
Li Yu and Zhirou stood up, with reluctance in their eyes, and after being stunned for a long time, Zhirou suddenly bit her lip and said, "Why don't I go with you!" ”
Then Li Yu also said: "Yes, I also want to drink Brother Yunwen to go together!" He muttered quietly, "The last time you left was two months, and if you left for a long time this time, wouldn't we be too lonely?" ”
Hearing this, Zhang Yunwen couldn't help but be stunned, and then smiled softly: "Okay, let's go over in the car!" ”
Everyone tidied up their clothes, left the natural residence, and under the leadership of the little guy, they found a car, and then thought of finding Zhao Yi in Fanguan, and told Zhao Yi about it, Zhao Yi's face changed, turned over and got on the horse, and followed Zhang Yunwen's carriage to the north.
Sanyuan County is located in the north of Chang'an and is directly under the jurisdiction of Chang'an Prefecture. Zhao Yi's home is in the county seat of Sanyuan County. The distance from Chang'an City to Sanyuan County is not far, and it took more than an hour for everyone to reach the county seat of Sanyuan County.
As soon as he entered Sanyuan City, Zhao Yi was silent, his eyes moving with the movement of the horse's hooves. When he arrived at a courtyard with mottled walls and closed gates, Zhao Yizai couldn't help it, hurriedly dismounted, and shouted at the gate: "Mother, Xiuyun, I'm back!" ”
There was a roar, but no one answered. Zhao Yi hurriedly came to the door, raised his big foot and kicked it on the door. There was only a "creak" sound, and the latch inside the gate broke, and then the door burst open on both sides, hitting the wall with a loud noise.
Two screams erupted from inside the room. Zhao Yi was in a hurry, rushed into the hospital in two steps, and shouted loudly again: "Mother, Xiuyun, where are you?" I am back! ”
A moment later, I heard an old voice coming from a dilapidated room: "Is it really my son who has returned?" As soon as Zhao Yi heard this voice, it was like a lightning strike, his knees weakened, and he knelt down in the direction of the house on the spot: "Yi'er is not filial, and now he is back!" After speaking, his voice was choked, and his eyes were full of tears.
Hearing this, Zhang Yunwen only felt a pain in his heart, and Li Yu and Zhi Rou slowly approached Zhang Yunwen, tears flashing in their eyes.
With a "creak", the dilapidated wooden door made an unpleasant grinding sound and slowly opened. A woman with a delicate face and a graceful figure slowly walked out of the room by supporting an elderly woman with gray hair who was leaning on her body. Behind them, a little boy who was only four or five years old looked at Zhao Yi in the courtyard.
As soon as Zhao Yi saw the old woman, he choked up and yelled: "Mother! Then he stepped forward on his knees, and in front of the old woman, he kowtowed three times.
The elderly woman hurriedly helped Zhao Yi up: "My son get up quickly!" A man has gold under his knees, how can he kneel like this! ”
Zhao Yi was upset about his mother's meaning and stood up. The tall and strong Zhao Yi was already a head taller than his mother, but now his mother was rickety, and it looked like it was just up to Zhao Yi's chest.
"Mother, why is your hair so white! I remember two years ago you had only a few gray hairs! Helping his mother to sit down, Zhao Yi found a bench and beckoned Zhang Yunwen and the three of them to sit down, grabbed his mother's rough hand and asked.
Mother sighed with a smile: "Alas, since that year, although your Majesty did not come back from the expedition, some people said that you had joined the Turks, and the old man never believed it, so he sat on the street every day and looked at the south, hoping that you could come back from Chang'an City!" But I've been waiting for two years, and I still haven't seen you come back! I'm worried in my heart, and if I keep worrying like this, my hair will turn gray! ”
Hearing this, Zhao Yi choked up and called "mother".
Zhang Yunwen's mind flashed such a scene. The elderly mother sat on the street, looking south with anticipation in her eyes. From morning till dusk, I looked at it like this. Seeing that the sun was about to set, he sighed softly, and slowly walked back step by step. After walking a few steps, he looked back, hoping that his son's back would appear in the dusk. However, every time I look back, I turn my head in disappointment and move on. Whether it is windy or rainy, whether it is spring, summer, autumn or winter, she always comes to the big tree on time every day and looks south. In this way, his hair turned gray and his body was rickety.
When I looked back, I saw that Li Yu and Zhirou's eyes were red, and there were tears hidden underneath, so they must have cried. Patting them on the shoulder, Zhang Yunwen smiled at Zhao Yi's mother and wife: "Old man, sister-in-law of the Zhao family, isn't Brother Zhao back?" It's been a hard two years! ”
When the old woman saw Zhang Yunwen, she also smiled and said, "It turns out that my son's General Zhang is also here!" Tsk, the two girls in the back are General Zhang's wife, they are really beautiful like flowers! By the way, General Zhang, since my son is also here, I would like to ask, did he really vote for the Turks? Speaking of the back, the voice had become stern.
Zhang Yunwen smiled again: "If he votes for the Turks, will I accompany him back?" ”
The old woman smiled happily: "I just said, how could my son have voted for the Turks!" If he dares to go to the Turks, the old body will not let him go! ”
Zhang Yunwen continued: "The old man is too worried! Although Brother Zhao has been in Turkia for the past two years, he has been ordered by His Majesty. A few days ago, the second khan of the Turks came to surrender to my Tang Dynasty, and Brother Zhao made great contributions, and his contribution was indispensable! Hehe, you don't know yet, Brother Zhao is already a general of the fifth grade, and he is in charge of thousands of people! Even the county lord of your Sanyuan County has to salute when he sees Brother Zhao, and he claims to be an official! ”
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Yi's mother and wife were immediately overjoyed, and they all thanked Zhang Yunwen. Zhang Yunwen said with a smile: "Brother Zhao was promoted to general, one is that he is willing to spend two years in the Turkic belt and has suffered countless hardships, and the other is that His Majesty is Shengming, and he will be rewarded for his meritorious deeds. What do you have to do with the kids! ”
Zhao Yi's mother was busy thanking Li Shimin and condolences to Zhao Yi, asking him if he was injured, and her concern was overflowing.
At this time, Zhang Yunwen saw the child next to Zhao Yi's wife and beckoned to him, but the child was embarrassed to hide behind his mother. Seeing this, Zhao Yi laughed and picked up his child, went to Zhang Yunwen, pointed at Zhang Yunwen and shouted: "Call Uncle Zhang!" ”
The child looked at Zhang Yunwen, his eyes were full of shyness, and he shouted timidly: "Uncle Zhang! ”
Zhang Yunwen smiled "haha": "Lao Zhao, your son's temperament is not like you at all!" As he spoke, he pulled out a saber from his lap and handed it to the child, "Uncle has nothing to give you, this saber has been with me for several years, and I will give it to you today!" ”
However, before the dagger was handed out, Li Yu said coquettishly: "Brother Yunwen, you are really, you don't know how many people you have killed with this knife, how can you give it to a child!" ”
Zhang Yunwen immediately said yes again and again. He took back the dagger and checked the things on his body, but found that there was nothing to give out, and immediately said embarrassedly: "I didn't bring anything this time, I'll bring you something next time!" ”
Then Zhao Yi picked up the child and stood beside Li Yu: "Call ...... Hmm......" suddenly remembered Li Yu's identity, and Zhao Yi didn't know how to let his children call this princess.
"Since he is called Uncle Yunwen, call me Aunt!" Li Yu seemed to know what Zhao Yi was thinking, and immediately smiled. After the child called "Auntie", Li Yu handed over a small comb: "Come, take it, and help your mother comb her hair more in the future!" ”
Then the child called Zhi Rou "Auntie" again, and Zhi Rou handed over the gift with a smile, a Turkic horn.
The old woman on the side and Zhao Yi's wife immediately smiled when they saw this scene.
Then Zhao Yi talked to his mother and wife again, and Zhao Yi ordered: "Xiuyun, you go to the street to buy some food, wine and meat and come back, I want to have a few drinks with the leader!" ”
That Xiuyun's face changed suddenly, but he didn't move half a minute under his feet. Zhao Yi's mother was also pale, looking at her daughter-in-law with a worried face.
Zhao Yi was careless and didn't know what was wrong, but Zhang Yunwen saw it. When I first entered the door, the closed door and the situation of hiding in the house, I suddenly had a plan in my heart.
At the moment, he said to Zhao Yi's wife: "Sister-in-law of the Zhao family, your face is pale, is there anything unspeakable?" ”
Hearing Zhang Yunwen's words, Zhao Yi reacted, looked at the expressions of his mother, wife and children, and said in a deep voice: "Mother, Xiuyun, what happened?" ”
The two of them suddenly looked at each other, hesitated, but did not answer.
Seeing this, Zhang Yunwen said in a deep voice: "Old man, sister-in-law of the Zhao family, Brother Zhao is a general of the fifth grade, there is something that can't be solved!" Just say it! If Lao Zhao can't be the master, the kid is a general from Sanpin, and he should be able to help you make the decision! ”
Hearing Zhang Yunwen's words, Zhao Yi's mother's eyes suddenly lit up, and she was silent for a moment, telling her what happened after Zhao Yi left home.
(Wow, I'm depressed today, and the Internet has been stopped!) In the morning, I went to renew the Internet fee, and the person in the network center said that it would only be 3 o'clock in the afternoon, so I had to upload this chapter on someone else's computer. Then I'm going to pay the internet bill! )
