Chapter 502: Hiring Stones
Jiang Yao learned the news of Liu Ye's promotion from Taishou, and he was surprised and resentful. Why does he have to travel far every time he goes out, the last time he walked for two years, this time the time is to be determined, and it is impossible to come back in the short term.
If he hadn't taught him a talent back then, wouldn't he have stayed by his side quietly? That kind of willow leaf is not a willow leaf, he has self-esteem, self-improvement and self-love, and this kind of willow leaf makes him love and respect it.
After the feast, he left Fatong and his senior brother, and the three of them lectured on Buddhism in the inner room. Jiang Yao and the others returned to their residences. Stone and the guards guarded the goods, and because they had not yet been handed over, he did not go back to see his father.
The next day, Shi took Jiang Yao and his party to contact his father. On the way, Shi asked tentatively: "Childe, when are you coming to Dunhuang?" ”
Jiang Yao: "It's hard to say, maybe three or five months later, maybe a year and a half later." Stone, do you want to go to Chang'an to see? ”
Shi Zheng has this intention, and his life on the go all the year round is to go back and forth to the Western Regions, and he has never been to Chang'an.
Stone: "Childe, Stone also wants to see the prosperity of Chang'an." Can the stone go? He was sure in his heart that Jiang Yao would agree. Fatong brother Jiang Yao can bring it back thousands of miles away.
Jiang Yao: "Stone, do you want to stay in Chang'an?" ”
Shi Shi is stable and knows many Chinese, and he needs talents like Shishi. The stone couldn't believe it, "Childe, you mean, you mean, you can take the stone in?" ”
Jiang Yao smiled: "Stone, it's not to take in, it's to hire stone, you are a talent, didn't the stone itself realize it?" ”
Shi raised his hand and touched his head, "Childe, you really can make me happy, Shi is a rough man." Thanks to Childe's high opinion, the stone is willing to follow Childe. ”
Shi made up his mind to follow Jiang Yao to the capital. When the group came to the bazaar, Shi's father saw Jiang Yao and his party and happily greeted them.
"You're finally back, did you have a good journey?"
The stone knelt down in front of his father, "Father, the child has returned." ”
The father-in-law helped his son up, and his son left for more than half a year. "It's good to come back, it's good to come back, let's go, I'll kill cattle and sheep for you."
Jiang Yao: "Uncle, we have to redeem the horses, change the goods, and after dealing with these things, the little nephew invites the uncle to drink." ”
The old man readily agreed. Loading their original horses, Jiang Yao and his husband settled the accounts, and the camels were returned.
Half a day passed, and after sorting out the goods, it was noon. The old man stopped business for a long time and came to the restaurant with Jiang Yao and his party.
When I returned to my motherland and ate the food of my hometown, the feeling of intimacy and familiarity was simply wonderful. Dongshuang ordered a large table of dishes, let the two guards eat first, and he took care of the goods.
The old man's eyes are on his son, he misses his son, and he has been away from home for so long. The idea that the stone was going to Chang'an was because of his father's eyes, and he wanted to speak several times.
Jiang Yao: "Uncle, my little nephew respects my father-in-law with a glass of wine." ”
Uncle: "Take a bowl to drink, and roast the whole sheep, and roast the suckling pig field, all of which are good dishes, and you don't need a bowl to drink, and you are blind to a table of good dishes." ”
Jiang Yao: "Okay, the little nephew will accompany the old man to get drunk and rest today, and serve the bowl." ”
Uncle: "Young man, I admire a bold young man like you. I think back when I was young..."
The old man drank a bowl of wine, opened the chatterbox, and talked endlessly about his brave deeds when he was young. My father-in-law served in the army when he was young.
"My son is not like I used to be, because he lacks training and has never been a soldier." The old man looked at his son lovingly.
Jiang Yao: "What does the old man mean to let the stone go out for training?" ”
Uncle: "I hope he can have a better way out, and he won't be on the road to and from the Western Regions all the year round, and he will also make a living." ”
Jiang Yao struck while the iron was hot, "Uncle, if you want the stone to go to Chang'an to develop, follow me." ”
Old man: "That's good, it's just that the son is joking, what can we do when we go to Chang'an, we can only use brute force." ”
Jiang Yao: "Uncle, the language of stone alone is talent, and my husband can't be arrogant." ”
Uncle: "Okay, don't worry, the stone is handed over to you, as long as he can have a chance, I won't stop him anywhere." ”
The old man is very open-minded. The future of the stone is set on the wine table. Jiang Yao gave the old man an extra hundred taels of silver, and the old man said he didn't want anything.
"You take my son to go on a rampage, my old man has no money to take care of you, but you give me money, and the old man wants to take care of the money. My old man is not a person who can't move when he sees money. ”
JIANG Yao; "This money is deducted in advance from the monthly money of the stone, your old man is old, and he has silver in his hand, so the stone will not worry about you in Chang'an."
The old man took the silver at this time, and tears welled up in his eyes, as if the hundred taels of silver were his son's money from selling himself. Liu Ye was not in Chang'an, Jiang Yao's heart was lightened, and the group repaired in Dunhuang for another day.
On the third day, the stone shed tears to bid farewell to his father, and Fatong and his senior brother sent them all the way to the outside of the city, and then they were reluctant to say goodbye. Jiang Yao and his entourage left Dunhuang.
Shi Xiong learned that Liu Ye took office in Hedong, and he has been thinking about coming to visit Liu Ye. Wait until the clean-up work of the monastery in Heyang Fan Town is sorted out. Shi Xiong took a few personal guards and hurried all the way to Jinyang.
Shi Xiong was completely surprised, they came to the mansion, Shi Xiong dismounted, and the guards came in to report, "General, Heyang Jiedu has sent Lord Shi to visit." ”
Liu Ye discussed the registration of the temple's property with all the officials in the lobby. Wen Yan jumped up from his chair, "Lord Shi is visiting!" Hurry out and greet you. ”
The adults, who have always been free and easy, were a little out of control when they heard the three words of Lord Shi, and the subordinates under the seat all covered their mouths and smiled, still young and unable to hold their breath.
Following Liu Ye Hao came out of the mansion, Liu Ye went out, and a high-spirited young general in front of him was looking forward to it.
Liu Ye strode forward and hugged Shi Xiong, "General, why did you suddenly visit, give a signal to the junior brother in advance." ”
Shi Xiong knew the identity of Liu Ye, and thought that if he saw Liu Ye again, Liu Ye would have something to do with him. didn't expect Liu Ye to have a bear hug on his head, just like when he was in the barracks, he still regarded himself as a brother in life and death.
Shi Xiong slapped him on the back with his big hand, "Liu Ye, I'm here to surprise you and surprise you, right?" ”
Liu Ye and Shi Xiong held hands, "The surprise is greater than the fright." ”
Everyone was very moved to see the interaction between Liu Ye and Shi Xiong, and it was not easy for the friendship between officials to reach such a level.
Liu Ye introduced all the subordinates to Shi Xiong one by one. Some officials and generals Shi Xiong are acquaintances, and Pei Wen and other generals have heard of them even if they have not met in person.
"Li Chen is going to prepare the banquet, and General Ben wants to pick up the wind and wash the dust for Lord Shi." Liu Ye ordered one of the guards behind him.
Shi Xiong glanced at him, the guard had been lowering his eyebrows, and when he heard this, he raised his eyes and replied, "It's the general, and the subordinates will go and prepare." ”
