The white noodles that I was reluctant to eat all winter were taken out from the bottom of the tank and baked into fragrant flatbreads, with bright shallots, steaming tea, and a few meat and vegetable combinations, and the side dishes that were very delicious when they looked were placed on the kang table.

Yang sat on the kang, drank the last mouthful of medicinal juice, put the bowl on the edge of the kang, looked at Ding Hao on the opposite side gobbling up the food she made, and said with a smile: "Hao'er, is the food delicious?" ”

"Hmm!" Ding Hao took a bite of the flatbread, and while eating the vegetables, he said vaguely: "It's delicious, to be honest, this time I went out with the eldest lady, it was bitter, and I was tired, but in terms of eating, the eldest lady didn't treat us badly, as long as it wasn't a barren mountain and a remote mountain, it would be enough for big fish and big meat." But it's really strange, usually when I'm at home, it's gluttonous meat, but this day it's big fish and meat, but it's not fragrant no matter how I eat it, I just like the dishes made by my mother. ”

"Hehe, ahem...... You're a kid who has learned to be sweet now. ”

Yang gently rubbed his heart, and said with a smile: "You kid is really good." All the things you did, I heard the people who came back to report the news, and everyone said that you have made such a great contribution this time, and the master will definitely give you a big steward to do. ”

The more Yang said, the happier she became, she sat up, crossed her legs, smiled and sighed, and said leisurely: "My family Hao'er is out of breath, when you do the big housekeeping, there will be more money this month, and the money that my mother has saved over the years will also save some for you, huh...... When the letter is settled, my mother will ask you to help Aunt Li find a suitable family. ”

"Mother." Hearing this, Ding Hao put down his chopsticks and said, "Mother, Hao'er has some plans, I wanted to go back and talk to you in detail, since my mother mentioned it, then Hao'er wants to discuss it with you." ”

"What's the matter?" Yang asked.

Ding Hao said calmly: "Mother, I want to leave the Ding family." ”

"Huh?" Yang was startled, almost touched the medicine bowl on the edge of the kang, and hurriedly said, "You want to leave the Ding family, leave the Ding family...... You...... Where are you going? ”

Ding Hao smiled quietly: "The world is so big, where can't I go?" Originally, my son was also apprehensive, but this time I went out, and after some experience, I already had confidence. Don't mention it elsewhere, if you go to Linqing County to find a small official, or go to Guangyuan, you don't have to worry about having no way out. ”

The Yang family didn't know what kind of official the defense envoy was, but he knew that the Ding family's big family business was also purchased by doing things for Cheng Shixiong, if the son could have a big career, it was every mother's dream, but after all, the son had never left him in his life, how could she give it up.

After pondering for a long time, she said really: "Son, you have the heart to go out and have a career, my mother doesn't want to stop you, but ...... Now that you have made such a great contribution, the master will definitely reuse you, and then start from scratch with others, is it appropriate? You're not too young, my mother still hopes that you will marry a wife and have children as soon as possible, and you have a big grandson to hug you, ...... you go."

"Mother, if my son wants to leave, he naturally wants to take you away, how can he leave his mother here?"

When the Yang family heard this, he panicked and hurriedly said: "Son, that's impossible, my mother signed a deed of sale with the Ding family, she was born a member of the Ding family, and died as a ghost of the Ding family, how can you just leave." ”

Ding Hao smiled and said: "Well, let my son figure it out, my mother doesn't have to worry about ......"

He took out a sturdy bag from his arms and handed it to Yang, who opened it and looked at the colorful paper and was stunned: "Son, what is this?" ”

"This is a silver ticket, a total of five hundred and seventy taels, can be exchanged for more than five hundred, my mother collects, let's cure my mother's illness first, as for the future future, there is silver at the bottom, and it will not be lost."

Yang asked in surprise, "Hao'er, are you ...... Where did you get all this money? ”

"Mother, don't worry, your son will neither steal nor rob, this is your son doing things for the Ding family, dredging up the relationship between General Cheng's mansion, and the savings from the gifts and the rewards you get are all clean."

Yang Shi was stunned for a while, and shook his head slightly: "Hao'er, my mother is old and her health is not good, if she runs around with you, I'm afraid I can't bear it, won't it drag you down?" Besides, in this life, I have never thought of leaving the Ding family, you let me go, I panicked. Hao'er, is it better than Dingjiazhuang when you go elsewhere? Our mother and son have lived here all their lives, and now that they have so much money, it would be even better, you have a house in the village, and you are the steward of the Ding family, decent, marrying a wife and having children, what is not better than that? ”

"Mother, no matter how good the Ding family is, it is also the Ding family. I, Ding Hao, and the Ding family, although I can't write two T-characters with one stroke, are not all the way. ”

Yang was silent, and Ding Hao said again: "Mother, going out for a career is indeed risky, and it will definitely suffer a lot, it is indeed better to be comfortable here, but no matter what, as long as we make a career, no matter how big or small the career is, it is our own." No matter how much you serve in the Ding family, it's not to make wedding clothes for others? ”

Yang said sneeringly: "You kid, my mother doesn't understand your thoughts at all. How decent it is to be the steward of the Ding family, how many people can't look forward to it, how can it become a send-off fence, you look at the steward of the wild goose and the steward of the willow, which person has not purchased his own family business, and lived a comfortable and decent life? ”

"Decent?" Ding Hao smiled: "Is it also decent to look at people with high eyebrows and low eyes in the Ding family?" Even if the Ding family lives up to me in this life, with fine clothes and food, and a worry-free life, the son is at most like Yan Jiu, a master in front of others, and a grandson in front of the Ding family. If people treat you as a human being, you are a human being, and if they don't treat you as a human being, they are not even as good as a dog. Mother, I don't want to send people under the fence for the rest of my life! ”

Yang couldn't say anything about him, he was at a loss, and there was already some pleading in his tone: "How can there be...... How can it be so unbearable, your child's heart is also a little higher. Hao'er, my mother has lived here all my life, and this is my mother's home. When I get old, my mother doesn't want to leave anymore, I really don't want to leave, can't we really stay......"

Ding Hao saw her doing such a difficult job, and his heart moved slightly: "Is she an old man who loves her family, or an old slave who loves her master, or is she still unable to give up on the hypocritical Ding Tingxun?" I have to find out what she thinks before I can get the right medicine. ”

He softened the color and smiled: "Mother, you don't have to worry. It's not a rush yet, you can think about it later. Now your body is not very good, and you can't afford to travel long distances, let's find a good man first, give you a good life to recuperate, and when the disease is cured, let's make plans. ”

Ding Hao went out of the house to know why some old farmers never left their homes for ten miles in their lives. At this time, the traffic was really bad, even if he was still quite strong, he was almost torn apart all day by car ride, so that a weak female streamer like Yang who was infected with scabies was forced to run around, but I was afraid that she would die if she didn't reach Guangyuan. The ancients often said that they were not accustomed to the water and soil, but a large reason was that they died in a foreign land due to fatigue and illness.

Now that his mother can't turn this turn, Ding Hao put this matter aside for the time being, thinking about going back and slowly doing her work. Yang's heart is towards herself after all, as long as she figures out the truth, are you afraid that she will not follow her and leave?

Seeing that his son no longer insisted, Yang was greatly relieved, and hurriedly agreed, secretly thinking: My son is older and has seen the world of flowers outside, and this heart is also wild, is it so easy to fight the world with bare hands? Abandon the servant of the master, and then try to find someone to work as an errand, but no one will use it. Back then, the old man already had a foundation, and he had suffered so much and suffered so many sins, and he was up and down, laughing and agreeing, and if he accidentally put all his efforts into it, he might be able to pay for it, this kid, it's so simple to think. I have to ask Aunt Li to tell her son as soon as possible, and when I have a satisfactory daughter-in-law, I will be able to tie Hao'er's heart.;
