Chapter 261: Homecoming

Although their hometown is less than 20 kilometers away from Guangzhou, they are both on official business and have not received instructions, so they dare not leave the barracks to visit their relatives in their hometown.

However, today is different, Second Lieutenant Makarov and Chief He Yu specially granted a five-day vacation for the two, and after learning that their hometown is very close to Guangzhou, He Yu was very considerate of his subordinates and asked them to go back to see if their families were living well, and if they could, they would be taken to Hong Kong.

After all, the current life of Daming, in fact, you don't need to think about it, there are few good ones, if Yu Shan Qiaoyan could live well in the village, he would not run out, and then got on the big ship to Australia.

"Qiao Yan, do you think my mother will be happy to see me, we haven't been back for almost two years, and I don't know what happened to my mother, I really should have taken her with me when I left." Yu Shan was dressed in new clothes, frowning his forehead and blaming himself a little, after all, anything could happen in two years, but he didn't want to think about the bad side.

"Don't worry, Yu Shan, my aunt will be fine, aren't there still dogs left in the village, this kid will definitely not starve our mother, let's be happy to return home this time." Although Qiao Xian comforted Yu Shan on his lips, in fact, he didn't have the same idea as him in his heart, his relatives had already passed away when he came out of the money, and the only thing that worried him was nothing more than the girl named Erya, and he didn't know if she was married now.

When they came back this time, the two used their own allowance to buy a lot of things, as well as some supplements brought from Australia, which were intended to be given to relatives and friends in the same village.

The village where the two were born is called Lantau Village, because the village is backed by a village called Lantau Island, and there are basically several surnames in the village, among which the surname Qiao is the largest surname and the most populous in the village.

With a population of more than 500 people, Lantau Village is also a large village, and the villagers live a frugal life by farming on weekdays.

Just as they were about to reach the entrance of the village, they both distinctly heard a burst of heart-rending cries and screams from the village, undulating with each other, and it was obvious that something was wrong. The two walked quickly towards the village, only to see that most of the houses in the village had been destroyed, and some of the destroyed houses were still squatting on the ground crying.

Suddenly, the two of them saw a familiar figure in the crowd, a young man was lifting an old woman from the ground, and very filial piety gently patted the dirt off her body.

"Dog leftover, mother," Yu Shan first found that the familiar person was himself and Qiao Yan's hair, and that woman was his mother.

This shout also seemed to bring the surrounding villagers who were immersed in grief back to reality, rubbing their eyes one by one and looking at the two brightly dressed outsiders curiously, until someone recognized them and shouted that it was Yu Shan Qiao, and then everyone seemed to remember something.

"Mother, the child is not filial, and you have suffered alone if you haven't returned for two years," Yu Shan threw the things in his hand on the ground and knelt down and kowtowed with a pop, and kowtowed more than a dozen times with the help of the dog on the side before finally standing up.

"Son, you're back, it's been two years, it's been two years, where have you been, why have you cut your hair," Looking at Yu Shan's little flat head, Yu Mu thought in her heart that he and Qiao Yan should have become monks.

Seeing that Yu Shan and Yu Mu were a little excited, Qiao Yan simply asked: "Auntie, our affairs are slowly talking, you tell us what is wrong with our village, have you been attacked by bandits, why did you look like this." ”

"Brother Qiao, don't mention it, where is this by bandits, it was the Qiao family who came to collect rent and did not harvest for the family to do it, saying that it was a lesson for us, if we hand over the grain, how can we not pay it." The dog was left to explain, and with his explanation, Qiao Yan finally understood.

This Qiao family has done it before, breaking the legs of tenants who have not paid the rent, and it seems that it has not changed at all in two years. Qiao Yan couldn't help but clench his fists in anger, but Yu Shan was a little excited when he heard it.

"Qiao's family, these cannibalistic scraps, I'm going to clean them up and get justice for the villagers."

"Calm down, Yu Shan, don't forget what the chief officer said to us when you come back, you must be calm in case of trouble, there are so many families in the Qiao family, we can't deal with it if we go, you calm down."

"Yes, son, Qiao Yan is right, don't be impulsive, it's good if you come back, this Qiao family can't go." Yu's mother seemed to be afraid of Yu Shan, so she ran towards Qiao's house, and deliberately stretched out her hand to pull his sleeve to prevent him from running away.

Under the persuasion of Qiao Yan and his mother, Yu Shan was also calmer, watching the villagers look at the dogs on the side, picked up the large package thrown on the ground, opened it and took out the gifts brought to the villagers.

"Folks, this is a little gift from Qiao Yan and I to you, there is food in it and it is also useful, you can take it and divide it yourself, there are not many things, just a little bit of our brother's heart." Yu Shan squeezed out a smile towards everyone and said.

"The mountain baby is out of breath and has brought us a gift, you can go home with your mother and nag and nag, leave us alone," some villagers echoed the man. At the moment, although I am very curious about what Shan and Qiao Yan have done in the past two years, they all know that now is not the time to ask.

Back to his own dilapidated thatched house, Yu Shan's eyes unconsciously shed tears, thinking that his old mother lived in such a simple house, but he lived in an Australian building, there was a kind of hammer heartache.

"Mother, I have made you suffer in the past two years, and I will take you to enjoy it when I come back this time, this is the milk powder I brought back from Australia, and it is good for your health to eat it."

Yu Shan carefully opened a small packet of milk powder, and then asked the dog to help him go to the kettle of water, ready to soak it for his mother himself to express his filial piety.

Looking at the things that her son took out, it smelled like milk, Yu Lao Niang knew that it was a good thing, and the things that her son had just given to the villagers were estimated to cost a lot of silver, Yu Lao Niang said in a somewhat blaming tone: "Shanzi, this is rich, you can't spend it indiscriminately, you have to save more money and marry a daughter-in-law in the future, by the way, I haven't seen you for two years, do you want a daughter-in-law?" ”

Yu Lao Niang seemed to think that she hadn't seen her for two years, maybe her son had already married a daughter-in-law, and it was not appropriate to teach like this, so she immediately changed her tone and asked.

"Mother, not yet, this time I came back to see you, in addition, I am not a person of the Ming Dynasty, I have applied for Australian nationality, not only became an officer but also assigned me a house, if you are willing to go to Australia to live, or live in Xiangdao, I am stationed in Xiangdao now, Qiao Xi and I are the same."

Speaking of his own experience, Yu Shan explained them one by one with a smile, and listened to the dogs on the side with his eyes full of curiosity, and was full of curiosity about Australia, which he had never met or heard of. (To be continued.) )
