Chapter 15: The Attribution of the Times
Yue Qian pushed Yue Zhang, who was scrambling to wash the dishes, back to the hall, and Yue Chengzhen, who had drunk a little wine, smoked his cigarette pouch, smiled from time to time, and secretly glanced at his son.
Under the candlelight, Yue Chengzhen's wrinkles were outlined by light and shadow.
Every ravine seems to be deeply rooted in the ruthlessness of the years and the unsatisfactory life.
Yue Zhang looked at this man who was almost the age of destiny, and his heart also throbbed, and he didn't know if it was because of the inheritance of this body, or because he missed his relatives in his previous life.
"Dad, I bought a house in Zhongxingfang, and I will deliver it tomorrow. You and your mother should move in. β
"I've lived in this old courtyard for most of my life, and I'm not going. Tomorrow your mother and I will go over and take a look and help you pick it up. Yue Chengzhen extinguished the smoke pot and tapped lightly on the soles of his cloth shoes.
Yue Zhang took the cigarette pouch and refilled the tobacco leaves with him: "You can go over, the three-room house, you two elders don't go to live by myself." β
In his previous life, Yue Zhang lived in that fast-paced era, where people were constantly running between material and power, and he had seen too many cases of trees wanting to be quiet but the wind was not stopping, and children wanted to raise but did not wait for their relatives.
Reincarnated as a human being, looking at the old mother who has been working at home all her life, and the old father who has been in the house for half her life, although she is short-tempered, but occasionally shows care, Yue Zhang is more and more eager to give them a better life.
Yue Chengzhen looked at his sincere gaze, almost bursting into tears. My son has grown up! It's no longer the unrealistic kid who does it against himself.
"Son, my father used to beat you all the time, don't hate my father." Yue Chengzhen picked up the cigarette pouch and pot and lit it on the candle flame.
"How good we were when you were a child, you were obedient at that time; A pair of eyes saw the sky dripping and turning, and at first glance he was a sharp boy. The days go by, you are like the little tree behind our house, inch by inch, from the height of the bench, to the height of the table, to the height of the mop, and now you are taller than your father. When I grow up, I have my own ideas, and my father also knows that scholars are promising, but we are cheap, and my father can't bear it! Dad beats you, and my heart hurts more than you! Daddy is angry with himself, if I have a good background, why can't my son take the exam? Why can't my son be better than others? β
Yue Zhang wiped away the tears that flowed unconsciously, got up and half-knelt beside Yue Chengzhen: "Dad, my son doesn't hate you." Now that I've taken up a military position, our family is no longer a lowly member. Isn't his son out of school if he doesn't study? In the past, the son was ignorant, but he made his father angry, which was the son's fault. β
Yue Chengzhen wiped his moist eyes, grabbed Yue Zhang's hand, and pulled him up. "I'm happy today, don't mention these, I've been in Yue Chengzhen's nest for half my life, and now that my son is out, I can raise my head and walk down the aisle in the future. Go and bring the wine, let's drink some more. β
The wind rose, the night rain, and the drops hit the window lattice, and the pair of shadows that toasted and drank together on the window lattice warmed the whole rainy night.
This night, Yue Zhang slept sweetly, and his dreams repeated the past and present lives, and finally the dreams were entangled together, and he could no longer tell which was the past life and which was the present life.
"No matter which life you are, Lao Tzu wants to live better, and I want you to live better!" Yue Zhang's passers-by in the dream generally looked at the faces that were either familiar or had been slightly forgotten, and muttered.
Early the next morning, Yue Zhang took the second elder and Jiu'er to Zhongxingfang, the old housekeeper was ready early, and when Yue Zhang handed over the remaining silver taels, he took the note, handed over the deed, picked up the luggage that had been packed last night and left.
Put the contract away, led the second elder to visit the house, and after repeated persuasion, Yue Chengzhen finally agreed to come and live, Yue Zhang hurriedly went to the county office, recruited a few young people, hired two big cars, and hurriedly moved the things in the old house.
In the county office, Hu Ying, who had just been sent on a business trip, heard that Yue Zhang was happy to move to a new home, so he hurriedly called Gu Minzhi to prepare a gift and went to congratulate him in person.
Yue Si'er, Zhang Zhao and the Wu family and Ji brothers also visited.
The group rushed together, but Hu Ying was the leader of a county, so he naturally took the lead and entered the door to congratulate the housewarming.
When Hu Ying entered the door, everyone didn't have so many rules, so they entered the courtyard in a hurry, handed over the gifts to Yue Zhang, helped Yue Qian and Jiu'er put things away, and got busy.
Yue Chengzhen saw that the county lord came in person, and hurriedly greeted him into the hall, now that he is not in the county office, his son has an errand at the Huangzhuang Official School, and the previous only promises have been swept away, plus Hu Ying and Gu Minzhi have a lot of power because of Yue Zhang's strength during this time, and the three of them are also chatting affectionately.
It's dinner time.
Although all the utensils in the house are complete, but everywhere has not been sorted out, and there is a lack of oil and firewood, Yue Zhang asked Jiu'er to take the money to the restaurant to make two tables and send them, and set up two large tables in the courtyard to entertain everyone.
"Uncle, this house has been empty for so long, you have to hang firecrackers to catch up with bad luck." Yue Si'er didn't know when he went out to buy a cannon fight, so he found a pole and crackled it at the door.
Everyone sat in the courtyard, pushed the cup and changed the lamp, and it was not lively for a while.
Wang Chun and Yao Guangli were taken away by the third division, Hu Ying was overjoyed, the power was in her hands, and the whole person was radiant.
Hu Ying smiled and raised her short beard, holding up her wine glass, "Yue Zhang, you are leaving, this county is really reluctant." However, it is not only a high promotion, but also the emperor and the queen mother are so important, and the future will be limitless. Come! The county borrows flowers to offer Buddha, and toasts you with a cup. β
Yue Zhang hurriedly stood up, lowered his wine glass with both hands and collided with Hu Ying, "The county lord is a subordinate official, although I am transferred to Huangzhuang, I am still in this Huairou County, and I will definitely disturb the adults when I have time in the future." After saying that, he drank it all, suppressed the spicy in his mouth, and said, "I don't know if the county lord has any arrangements for the personnel of the county government?" β
Yue Zhangren has been transferred to Huangzhuang, and now it is a bit abrupt to ask about the personnel of the county government. Hu Ying had suffered from being overshadowed by his subordinates, thinking that Yue Zhang was going to intercede for Yue Si'er or Zhang Zhao and seek a position to arrest quickly. So when he heard this, his eyes condensed and stared at Yue Zhang.
When Yue Zhang saw his expression, he also understood in a trance that he had touched the scale of the county commander, and he also secretly laughed at Hu Ying who was bitten by a snake and was afraid of the well rope for ten years.
He hurriedly took the wine jug and poured the wine for Hu Ying: "The family has been settled in the past two days, and I will also go to Huangzhuang to take up my post." But you also know that Zheng Bin has been running the Huangzhuang for a long time, and he is his cronies up and down. The kid doesn't have anyone available, so it's not easy to get there. So the kid has a reluctant invitation, Yue Si'er is my clan, Zhang Zhao and I have a similar temper, and I hope that the adults will allow the two to go to Huangzhuang with me. β
Hu Ying held the wine glass, and when she heard the words, she took off her guard, thinking that in this way, the entire county government would be in the palm of her hand, and secretly praised this kid for being on the road, otherwise this Yue Si'er and Zhang Zhao themselves would really not be able to settle down.
After all, the two of them contributed a lot to the arrest of Fang Wu, and if they arranged the head capture for their own people, they would definitely not be convinced. And neither Zhang Zhao nor Yue Si'er is his descendant, through what Yue Zhang did, Hu Ying felt more and more that the position of head catcher was very important.
Hu Ying smiled and picked up the wine glass, "Since Captain Yue wants someone, how can this official not allow it." It is better for the two of them to go with you, and go to the Huangzhuang to seek a career, which is better than being a lifelong servant in the patrol room. β
Zhang Zhao and Yue Si'er at the other table were overjoyed when they heard this, although they and Yue Zhang had not been together for a long time, but after experiencing this incident, they both knew that Yue Zhang was a person of great affection. Now he is in charge of the Huangzhuang at a young age, and he has no right-hand man by his side. With such a future, it is of course better to follow him than to be in the patrol room.
The staggered selection of the guests and the host are happy.
Everyone left with a drunken farewell, Yue Qian helped the drunk Yue Laohan who sang and laughed back to the house to rest, and Jiu'er cleaned up the table neatly.
Yue Zhang's alcohol was up, and he felt that his face was hot, so he walked along the bluestone paved path to the pavilion.
After the rockery on the edge of the pavilion, two heads, one big and one small, peeped at Yue Zhang like a curious baby.
"Sister, is he Yue Zhutou? People don't look at him like him, Steward Wang said that Yue's head catching fist can break stones, how can this person be so burly? β
"Well, I don't think so! You see, when Daddy went north to hand over the grain, he took care of those guards, all of them were stronger than him, and he had never heard of a fist that could break stones. β
"But he looks quite handsome, my sister listens to people talking about Yue Catching Heads and Fighting Fang Wu every day, so I keep asking, I think this person is not necessarily as powerful as he said, but it's okay to be a husband to my sister, hehe!"
"Stinky girl! What nonsense. β
"Oops!"
Yue Zhang suddenly heard a coquettish cry behind the rockery, and shouted: "What person! β
When the two girls saw that they were discovered, they screamed and turned around and ran towards the courtyard wall. But when I came, I came with a ladder on the other side of the wall, and when I went back, there was nothing to do.
The girl lifted the little girl up, and the little girl struggled to climb the wall with both hands, and kicked her feet in a pair of small embroidered shoes, but she couldn't get up.
Seeing this, the girl jumped on the spot, and wanted to climb over the wall herself and pull her sister up. I don't want to climb the wall with both hands, and my arm strength is not enough, and I am stuck in mid-air.
Yue Zhang strode towards the courtyard wall, and saw two buttocks, one large and one small, hanging on the wall, so strangeγγγγγγ
