Chapter 64: Returning Home
The storm lasted for two days and two nights, and it was not until the early morning of June 23 that the rain gradually stopped.
After being washed by the rain, the official road is full of stagnant water, and the soil is loose and soft, and every few steps, your feet will be covered with mud, and you will feel like you are wearing a pair of heavy shoes on your feet, which is very laborious.
After walking a distance, you have to stop, kick your feet twice, kick the mud off your shoes, and the road after the rain is always slippery, and people with poor body balance, if you are not careful, you will fall him, which greatly increases the difficulty of rushing.
The sky was still gloomy, and from time to time there were birds flying over the heads of Zhang Tie and the others, looking in a hurry, as if they had not eaten for many days and were already hungry.
Shaking off the dirt on the low side of his shoes, Liu Yi groaned with despair on his face, "Ah! I can't stand it, this damn door, the damn rainstorm, the damn dirt. ”
Liu Yi's guard Zhang Long was standing not far in front of Liu Yi at this time, and there was also a thick layer of soil next to him, as if he had just kicked off the dirt on his shoes, looked at the mountains in the distance, and turned his head to Liu Yi and said.
"Young master, hold on for a while, you can already see Xiaogui Mountain here, and Xinjian County is not far away, and you are about to get home."
As Zhang Long said, this place is not much away from Xinjian County, if it is calculated according to the usual footsteps, it can be reached within an hour, and with the current situation, it should be almost there after an hour.
Liu Yi stopped complaining, buried his head and hurried, as a rich child, he is usually served by someone, although he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, but he has suffered very little, where has he suffered like this, and he was bullied by the soil.
Zhang Tie shrugged his shoulders and walked up with his steps, and there was also a thick layer of dirt on his shoes, but Zhang Tie didn't care about this at all, and continued to pulsate his steps, leaving a lot of dirt, but Zhang Tie's shoes could no longer carry much dirt.
Zhang Shun was also in a hurry, kicking his legs from time to time, and falling off a piece of dirt.
The two brothers Zhang Tie officially said goodbye to Liu Yi and Zhang Long, and said that after the convergence in Beicheng, the two brothers Zhang Tie re-embarked on the journey home, and the extra iron knife on their bodies was naturally sold to the people at the post station at a low price.
Soon after Liu Yi and Zhang Long were separated, Zhang Tie and the two summoned horses in the corner of an official road, and the heavy gray grassland horse appeared in front of Zhang Tie's eyes again.
Touching the expressionless system horse, Zhang Tie almost left tears, although the dirt was not heavy, but it was not comfortable, and walking was too slow and too difficult.
Leading the horses to the official road, Zhang Tie turned over and got on the horse, and said to Zhang Shun, who was also sitting on the horse: "Okay, finally you can have a horse to ride, hurry up and get on the road." ”
Zhang Shun also breathed a long sigh of relief, it seemed that he didn't like to roam in the sea of dirt again, "Well, let's go." ”
"Drive!"
Zhang Tie subconsciously barked, and the horses trotted on the official road.
There seemed to be no pedestrians on the official road after the heavy rain, and the road was unobstructed.
Finally, two days later, around noon, Zhang Tie and the two brothers returned to the gate of Fierce Blood Town, for Zhang Tie, he was used to going out often, but for Zhang Shun, it was the flower girl who was arrogant, the first time.
With nostalgia in his eyes, Zhang Shun seemed to want to return home immediately and see his relatives who had been separated for more than a month.
The two brothers walked to the gate, the horses had already been collected on the way they came, and the soldiers guarding the city seemed to know Zhang Tie, and said hello to Zhang Tie, who also nodded to him.
Now Zhang Tie is already a celebrity for Bloody Town, everyone knows that there is such a number one person, and Xiaoma Mountain has become famous in a fight.
Entering the town, Zhang Tie and the two first went to the street, ready to buy it on a large scale, just as the so-called return to the hometown, now Zhang Shun is already the county order of a place, and it is not bad for money, so it is natural that they should celebrate after returning home.
At the same time, the three members of Deng's Mafang, Zhang Sanmad's family were all packing up their rituals and furniture at home, preparing to move.
As early as when Zhang Tie and the others had not returned, a briefer had already informed Zhang Sanmad and his wife of the results of the palace examination and the appointment of Zhang Shun as the county magistrate of the border city.
Zhang Sanmad and his wife, who learned of this, were naturally very happy, and rewarded the informant with a few pieces of silver, and the two couples began to think about Zhang Shun's future.
The next day, the two husbands and wives went to the Deng family compound together, and resigned from the head of the family, Deng Wei, who was also well-informed.
Later, when I inquired, it was not difficult to learn that Zhang Shun had become a county order, and knew that the sons of the two in front of him were now county officials, so naturally they couldn't work in Zaifu, so Deng Wei approved the resignation of the two and calculated the extra salary.
As a parent of a county magistrate, if you let people know that you are still working as a groom for others, you are afraid that you will be laughed off by others and lose face to your grandmother's house.
When the two brothers returned, they happened to see three people who were still tidying up the house, all three of them were gray and shaggy, with many cobwebs on their heads.
"Dad, mother, little sister, what are you doing here?" Zhang Tie looked at the empty yard, all the things that were considered useful were cleaned up to a corner of the yard, and the so-called usefulness was naturally for Zhang Tie's mother.
People who are used to suffering will be reluctant to throw away a little thing, which they have exchanged for flesh and blood, and there is already a big pile in the corner.
Carefully carrying the washstand to the ground, Zhang Tie's mother Yuping looked at Zhang Shun with a happy face, "Good son, I know that you must be able to, ouch, aren't you already a county order, so your father and I have already resigned from the Deng family and are ready to move out." ”
"Mother, I didn't expect to be hit for the first time."
As he spoke, Zhang Shun nodded, he really thought that his parents didn't have to work now, and he was now a county magistrate who governed a place, and he knew that his brother Zhang Tie now had a lot of money.
Zhang Shun was not surprised why his mother knew the news in advance, as soon as the results of the palace examination came out, there would be a full-time staff to deliver the news.
Zhang Tie and others were first attacked by the Loumen people on the road, and the horse also died, and then they encountered heavy rain, which delayed a lot of time, and the people who wanted to deliver the news should have already come.
Zhang Tie on the side looked at the debris piled on the ground, his brows furrowed, his eyelids jumped wildly, what he was most afraid of was to clean up his things, he was often attacked by his family because of this in his previous life.
"Mother, it's not that you don't know Junzi's ability, it's proper to take the top prize."
"But you still don't want these things, they're all dilapidated, and they're very troublesome, and now our family has money."
Without waiting for his mother to refute, he stopped Zhang Sanmad and the two of them, who were still moving furniture, "Dad, little sister, come over here." ”
The two of them, who didn't want to move things for a long time, immediately put down the objects in their hands and trotted over, "Tie Dan'er, what's the matter with me?" ”
And Zhang Xiaohua looked at Zhang Tie and the two brothers hopefully, and in the face of Zhang Xiaohua's gaze, Zhang Shun hurriedly took out the rattle from his bag and handed it to her.
Zhang Xiaohua took the rattle with a happy face, shook it, made a knock sound, and happily said thank you to Zhang Shun.
Zhang Tie also took out a few money bags from his bag and handed them to Zhang Sanmad and the three of them one by one, and the money bags handed to Zhang Sanmad contained the money that Zhang Tie had obtained during this time.
"Father, my younger brother is still young now, I think it is better for you all to go to the border city where my brother is appointed, you can help a group of younger brothers, after all, my younger brother is young, not experienced enough, and he is not familiar with the place, I am afraid that it is easy to be fooled, and I have to need someone like my father to help."
