Jing Jixian didn't have a big deal, when he fell off the car, his left shoulder hit the ground, his neck twisted, he got up from the ground, and he didn't care about the soil on his body, and he wanted to follow the startled horse, but he just ran a few steps, but he couldn't do it, so he sat on the ground again. After a few days, it was fine, just like a good person. Jing Jixing's feet were trampled by the horse's hooves, and that day he was wearing a pair of home-made mille-feuille cloth shoes, the shoes crushed the upper of the shoes, the big toe and the second toe were trampled flat, and the two toe bones were broken, and it was estimated that he had to leave a little disabled, and he was sent to the county hospital on the same day to receive the bones. The orthopedic doctor at the county hospital said, it's nothing serious, it's a hundred days to hurt your muscles and bones, go home and raise it! Don't go down to the ground for ten or twenty days! When he said don't go to the ground for 10 days or 20 days, he didn't mean to work in the field, but not to walk in the field, and of course it is even worse to work in the field. But the horse was really frightened excessively, first by the damn pig, then by Jing Ji who fell from the car first, and then down, was scared by the person who stepped on himself, and finally, was completely frightened by the kick of the outsider, but it didn't hurt the muscles and bones, and when it came to Guiqi, it was still Jing Jixian who was raising a little bit of himself at the same time, and waited with good materials.

When the story was finished, the room fell silent again. This time, it was Jing Zhiguo who broke the silence.

"Uncle, didn't you and your eldest brother ask where that person is from, and what is his surname?"

"I asked, the man said that his surname was Bai, and his home was from Cigou."

"Cigou? Is it the Cigou that we passed by on our way to the county seat? ”

Jing Jifu and Jing Zhiyi didn't speak, just nodded, nodded, and looked at each other.

The room fell silent again. Jing Zhiguo looked at the two men in front of him, and he understood why they hurriedly called him back! It is very likely that what the two of them are thinking about at this time is the same thing as what Jing Zhiguo is thinking about at this time. What happened in Jingjiagou sounded purely accidental, but it reminded Jing Zhiguo of a past sealed in his heart, although this past was more than 20 years away from this time, it can be regarded as a long time, but it is still vivid, and it is still so real.

Initially, it was impossible to know when the Jing clan would arrive at Jingjiagou. According to the county chronicles of Qinxian County, it was about the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty that it took six or seven hundred years to get Jing Zhiguo's great-grandfather, that is, Jing Zhiguo's grandfather. It should be the name of Jingjiagou that only the Jing family has, Jingjiagou is named because of the surname, unlike the origin of some surnames, because of the place where the name is called, it refers to the place as the surname. At that time, Jing Zhiguo's grandfather's family was the richest family in Jingjiagou, which was really a good field, and there were other industries such as milling houses, powder houses, restaurants, etc., and Hongbin Building, the largest restaurant in Qinzhuang, the county seat of Qinxian County, was the grandfather's family.

In Jing Zhiguo's grandfather's life, there is only one brother, and there are no other brothers and sisters, and the family is still rich. Grandpa has two sons, Jing Zhiguo's father Jing Jizhong and Jing Zhiyi's father Jing Jifu, Jing Zhiyi's father and Jing Zhiguo's father and second son. Grandpa is very good at cultivating and educating his children, and his two sons are both promising. The eldest son has a flexible mind and is very proficient in the way of business, and the younger son has a quiet temperament and is quite observant of the learning of Confucius and Mencius. The eldest son at the age of 20 or so knew everything about his own industry, hard work is beneficial, the younger son passed the examination of the county government at the age of 30 or so, and became a student of the county school, which is often said to be a showman, as for whether he participated in the township examination later, it may not be, because the Qing Dynasty had ended at that time, there was no opportunity for the exam, and he had never heard Jing Jizhong say that if he participated in the township examination, this glory would definitely not be buried, in short, he did not become a person. But no matter whether he becomes a lifter or not, anyway, the youngest son, that is, Jing Zhiguo's father, Jing Jizhong, was the authority of Chinese studies in Shili Batun near Jingjiagou at that time, and it was also famous in the entire Qin County. In this way, Jing Zhiguo's father and Jing Zhiyi's father are both famous squires in the county. Both of them married one after another, and soon both had children. Jing Jifu's son is Jing Zhiyi, and Jing Jizhong's son is not just Jing Zhiguo. By the time Jing Zhiguo arrived, Jing Zhiguo was already a bunch of children, and Jing Zhiguo was the youngest. Jing Zhiyi wants Jing Zhiguo to be four or five years old. At that time, the entire family lived in the courtyard where Jing Zhiyi's family now lives. This is a courtyard of a green hall tile house, the main house faces the south of five blue brick ridge eaves big tile house, the east and west wing rooms each have four are also blue brick tile houses, also ridged, but there is no cornice, the amount of room is also a little smaller. The blue brick wall, the green tile back gatehouse, the black lacquered iron door brass door knocker, there is a plaque hanging on it, the black ground is gold painted, and there are several large characters in the face of Hongfutang. After Jing Zhiguo was born, his grandfather thought that it was inconvenient for a large family to squeeze into one place, to say something honest, and also to take the opportunity to buy more real estate in it, to live, one is the house and the other is the land! A house and land are the two main elements of life. But you can't split the family, when the family is still there, what kind of system does the family become, it's unlucky! On the East Street of Jingjiagou, which is close to Dongshan, compared with the original courtyard, another courtyard was built for Jingzhi to live in, but because the old family was still there, there was no plaque on the gatehouse. Well, it's not a separate family, it's just a separate residence. But living separately, there is also a mile away from each other, after all, we can't eat together every day, and all the families in Jingzhi Country are taken care of by my grandfather's family. said that it was taken care of by the grandfather's family, but in fact, it was taken care of by Jing Zhiyi's father. Grandpa is a shrewd person, if you find a housekeeper for such a big family business, of course, it's good, if the housekeeper is not authentic, don't ruin our family! Originally, it was the grandfather who did it himself, and when Jing Zhiyi's father set up a business, he let Jing Zhiyi's father take care of things. Jing Zhiguo's father is the second child at home and a scholar, so he has no great interest in this kind of thing. Fortunately, Jing Zhiyi's father Jing Jifu is really a serious person, with a good heart, he keeps his home in order, lives separately, and takes special care of Jing Zhi's country. My grandmother died young, about 50 years old. Grandpa did not continue the strings, and he lasted for another twenty years on his own, and passed away in his seventies. Considering that although the two sons have different personalities and characteristics, they are also both personalities and have the ability to run the family business, a few days before he died, as if he had a premonition of his own, okay, he called the two sons to him and said, do you two brothers plan to live together in the future, or have you separated? He also said that as long as you both think the same way, Dad will listen to you both. The two brothers glanced at each other, and Jing Zhiyi's father Jing Jifu said, Dad, what are you talking about! Isn't it good that we're all together, it's lively! What are you talking about? Grandpa said that my father is getting older day by day, and maybe he will return to the West one day, and it will be too late to talk about it by then. Jing Zhiguo's father and Jing Zhiyi's father lowered their heads and were silent for a while, Jing Zhiyi's father raised his head and said, Dad, we and my brother are not young anymore, and we both have children, with you, we are very good as a family, but if you are really gone, it is not a way to be together like this, I don't know what my brother thinks, or separate! Jing Zhiguo's father glanced at his brother and felt that there was some indifference in his brother's eyes, and then looked at his father and nodded. At that time, the grandfather already had a plan in his heart, so he divided the family for his two sons, wrote a paperwork, and pressed his handprint at the end. It is written that the two current houses belong to each family, all the shops belong to Jing Zhiyi's father, most of all the land belongs to Jing Zhiguo's father, and a small part belongs to Jing Zhiyi's father, and the plots are also divided in detail. Such a division is because the grandfather considers that Jing Zhiguo's father is a scholar and is not good at taking care of business, but the management of land is relatively simple. In this way, Jing Zhiyi's family and Jing Zhiguo's family are basically equal in terms of family property, and the two families have a life to rely on, and he can also rest assured that he will go west. About a month later, grandpa really left.
