Chapter Forty-Eight: The Warrior Returns Home

Shi Chen got up early in the morning, wearing a liberation hat on his head, a set of khaki military uniforms, and his bags on his back. In a hurry, they left from the troops. He went directly to Andong Railway Station, bought the earliest train ticket, and wanted to take the train back to Beichun.

At that time, the steam train was very slow, and it took several hours to get from Andong to Beichun. After getting off the train, I took the old-fashioned bus at that time, and it took four or five hours to return to Luxiang County. He was very happy, it was the feeling of "the general died in a hundred battles, and the strong man returned in ten years". What could be more exciting than going home?

At that time, the People's Liberation Army no longer did not pay soldiers as it did during the Eighth Route Army and the Red Army. The People's Liberation Army had a salary, although it was a little less than the average salary in society at that time, but at least it was there. Shi Chen took his salary to the pastry shop in Luxiang County, sold some pastries for children, packed them in newspapers and took them away. Then I went to the fruit store, which at that time did not have as many kinds of fruit as it does today. But there are still fruits such as apples, pears, and apricots, so Shi Chen picked some delicious and economical apples and packed them in small bamboo baskets. He carried pastries in his left hand and apples in his right as gifts to visit his relatives back home.

On this day, Shi Chen set out from the camp, from seeing the newborn sunrise to seeing the sunset in the west. The journey was a whole day.

After leaving the county, he had to walk home with his gifts. The traffic in that era was really inconvenient, and under the afterglow of the setting sun, the blood-colored remnant sun shrouded Shi Chen's figure going home, until it engulfed Shi Chen little by little.

The people of that era were really good-hearted, and simplicity was not complicated. On his way home, he met a kind-hearted villager who drove an ox cart away, and the villager agreed to give him a ride when he saw that he was a member of the People's Liberation Army. He could then sit in the car and go far until the stars appeared in the night sky. When it was already late at night, Shi Chen arrived home.

"Knock knock~" The door of Shi Chen's house was knocked on by Shi Chen.

"Who? Who are you looking for so late? Shi Chen's father came out of the house, and while getting dressed, he said to the people outside.

"It's me, Daddy! I'm a courtier! Shi Chen said happily.

Shi Chen's father couldn't believe his ears, rubbed his ears and said, "You say it again, say it again!" Who are you? ”

"I'm a courtier! O your son! ”

Shi Chen's father hurriedly opened the door, and when he saw his son standing outside the door with two bags of things, smiling silly at him, the old father said excitedly and pleasantly: "You are back, son!" Then he turned his head to the house behind him, and cried out by the neck, "Old woman! Daughter-in-law! Come out and see who's back!" It's the little courtier, the little courtier, he's back. ”

When Shi Chen's mother and Ah Feng heard this, they immediately got dressed and walked outside the house.

After seeing Shi Chen in military uniform, her mother said happily: "Eh~ It's really my son who is back!" I didn't believe what I just heard your father say! It's really you're back! Come back to the house, get back to the house. After speaking, he pulled Shi Chen into the house.

Ah Feng held the three-year-old Fengtian and stood aside. Although Xiao Fengtian was very unfamiliar with the young man in front of him, who was only twenty-one years old, the woman who was holding him was already smiling from ear to ear. Her husband was finally looking forward to coming back, and Ah Feng showed a long-lost smile.

Shi Chen was pulled into the house by his mother, and he put down the gift in his hand in the corner of the living room.

Shi Chen said to his mother: "Mother, I bought something for you and Xiao Fengtian to eat." ”

The mother hurriedly responded: "If you come back, you will come back, what else do you bring, we have everything now." Have you eaten? Little courtier. ”

At that time, people were very practical, and they treated their families the same. Shi Chen, who had been hungry for a day, said directly: "Not yet, I have been on the road for a day today, hurry up and hurry, but I can be regarded as rushing back." ”

"It's good to be back! It's good to be back! The mother slapped her thigh and said.

Shi Chen's father put the table and picked up the dishes and chopsticks. Ah Feng hurriedly copied a dish, and his mother took out a few salted duck eggs from the jar of salted duck eggs and cooked them, and cooked some sorghum rice. The family put together a table of food in a moment. Shi Chen ate it with relish, maybe it was not the most delicious taste in the world, but it was the most memorable taste that Shi Chen felt.

There are times when you may reject it. But after being away from home for a long time, you will miss it very much. Perhaps, this may be the charm of home.

The next day, many people in the village knew that Shi Chen had returned, so they all went to visit. Zhang Baochang, Zhang Langzhong, and Liu Pozi all went to Shi Chen's house to take a look at this fighting hero who went out in the village.

Shi Chen stood aside happily with his son Fengtian in his arms, and from time to time people from the village would come to visit him.

"Look, the little courtier is out of breath! I said that the little courtier will definitely be able to become a great weapon in the future, depending on whether I say it is accurate. Zhang Baochang said to Zhang Langzhong.

Zhang Langzhong looked at Baochang Zhang and retorted: "Big brother, don't be blind!" Isn't it that when the little courtier was going to join the army, you led a donkey to the little courtier, what a joke? ”

Zhang Baochang hurriedly rounded the field and said with a smile: "Eh~ Those are all trivial things, the main thing is that the little courtiers are good!" Hard! ”

After a while, Mrs. Liu also came over with a basket of eggs.

As soon as Mrs. Liu entered the courtyard, she shouted loudly: "Oops~ Isn't this the big hero of our village back!" Let my aunt take a look, let my aunt take a look. ”

Of course, Shi Chen also knew that this was Ah Feng's midwife, so his relatives said naughtily: "Na, aunt! I'm here, and I can see whatever I want. ”

As soon as Mrs. Liu heard this, she became happy and said: "Hahaha~ Do you remember when your daughter-in-law gave birth to a child, at that time, Guo Min Dang came to your house to check the hand cocoon, and you were captured by Guo Min Dang, or did your father use your heirloom to fish you out of Guo Min Dang's hands, but it was thrilling!" At that time, I heard that you were beaten by Guo Min Dang and your nose was blue and your face was swollen! It's good now, you all beat Guo Min Dang to Taiwan, cow! Relieve gas! Little courtier, you are a real cow, you are really relieved! ”

The little courtier hurriedly replied: "Hahaha~ Auntie, do you remember this matter?" At that time, there was no backer behind him, and there was no bottom in his heart. Isn't there a backer this time, is the Gong Chan Party coming? ”

"Haha, yes, the backer is here. This is my family's stupid egg for your family, you must accept this gift! ”

"Don't, don't!" Shi Chen said politely.

"Get, get!" After speaking, he put the basket of eggs into Shi Chen's house. Baidu takes a look at the latest chapter of "Men's World Masterpiece Literature" to read for free for the first time.
