Chapter 210 Promise

The village chief arrived home with the front foot, and Tian Mai arrived with the back foot, he looked at Tian Wheat in surprise and asked her what was the matter?

Tian Mai looked at the deeper and deeper wrinkles on the village chief's face, and then glanced at the other people in the village chief's family, and sighed silently, saying that she had something to tell the village chief, can the others avoid it?

The village chief waved his hand to the family and told them to do what they should do.

As soon as the others left, the village chief turned to Tian Mai and asked her again what was the matter?

You can't have secretly borrowed money from him, right?

Thinking of this, the village chief's heart became excited.

Although he has several sons, but the palms and backs of his hands are full of meat, he really doesn't know who to let go?

Fighting a war is not child's play, and if you are not careful, you will ......

Just like those who went ten years ago, Zhao Darong came back, and the others ......

Thinking about this, his heart sank again, and his face became heavier and heavier.

"The stakes are high, and I hope you'll keep your mouth shut about what I'm going to talk about later." She didn't know where those people in the village would be assigned, but if they were lucky enough to meet Xianggong, maybe there would be a good creation.

There's not much she can do, so she hopes they feel better.

Seeing Tian Mai's expression so serious, the village chief's face turned pale, and he also nodded solemnly, saying that no matter what he heard, he would definitely keep his mouth shut and would not spread it.

I don't know what Da Rong's daughter-in-law wants to tell him, and he is so serious that he can't help but feel worried.

Tian Mai took a deep breath, "I want to tell you about my father-in-law." ”

"Daiei's business?" The village chief was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Tian Mai wanted to say, "Darong, didn't he go far away?" ”

"Yes, he's out of the house." Tian Mai smiled bitterly and didn't hide it from the village chief anymore, "He's at the border." ”

She hadn't heard from him for three or four months, and she was really worried about him, and she didn't know what was going on with him.

However, as long as the news of his sacrifice is not heard, then others are safe.

"Da Rong, what is he doing at the border?" The village chief's brows furrowed into a deep fold, and he couldn't understand how Zhao Darong ran to the border gate, "He won't go over there to do business, right?" "Is there any business over there? If there is a war, your life will be lost.

Daiei's courage is also too great.

Seeing that the village chief didn't understand her words, Tian Mai shook his head lightly and said, "No, he was called back." ”

Recalled?

Only then did the village chief understand what Tian Mai meant, he was stunned, and it took a while to come back to his senses, and his hands trembled and asked Tian Mai, why was Zhao Darong called back?

He finally came back, how could he be called back?

Does this mean that the situation at the border is not optimistic?

"I don't know, I was called back all of a sudden." Tian Mai thought a little and didn't say it completely, "I was thinking that if the people in the village were also conscripted to the border, maybe they would be able to meet my father-in-law, and when the time comes, everyone will be able to take care of them." ”

The village chief nodded, his mind was so confused that he didn't know what to say for a while.

Tian Mai felt that he had said what he should have said, so he didn't linger any longer, said something to the village chief, and went back.

The village chief sat alone in his chair for a long time, and it was not until his sons ran in for him that he came to his senses.

His eyes crossed over his sons' faces, and then he sighed heavily, "How did you discuss?" "There are many people in the family, and it is impossible to spend all of your net worth to buy a place, so ......

The village chief's youngest son took a step and said he was going.

The three brothers in front of him are all married, but he is the only one who has not yet married, and it is best for him to go.

The village chief's eyes returned to his youngest son Zhao An, and his heart ached, and he asked him if he had thought about it?

"Dad, I've thought about it, it's the most appropriate thing for me to go."

"Okay......" The village chief pinched his palm, and his eyes turned to the other three sons, "You go out first, and I'll have a good chat with the fourth child." ”

After watching the three sons go out, the village chief asked the younger son to close the door.

So mysterious?

After Zhao An ran to close the door, he ran back and sat opposite the village chief, "Dad, what do you want to tell me?" His father's expression was so serious, and he looked at him in a panic.

The village chief lowered his eyelids, was silent for a moment, and raised his head to look at him, "Fourth, have you really thought it through?" You know, this time, it may be ...... There may never be a return. If it weren't for the fact that his family was too poor, he wouldn't want to send a son out.

Zhao An's hands on his knees clenched into fists and smiled at the village chief, "Dad, I know what you said, I ...... I'll try to protect myself. "If he really can't come back, he still has three brothers at home, and he can serve his father and mother until he is old, and he has nothing to worry about.

His eyes were red, the village chief closed his eyes, his mouth full of bitterness, "It's my father who is sorry for you, I can't ......help it."

"Dad, it's none of your business." Zhao An interrupted the village chief's words, this is a matter of the imperial court, if it weren't for the compulsory conscription of the imperial court, his father wouldn't have to be so embarrassed, "Dad, what do you want to say if you let me come down?" ”

Did his father keep him here to talk about these things?

The village chief also knew that no amount of talk could change the fact that he was going to send his youngest son away, so he didn't say anything else, but said what Tian Mai had just said.

As soon as he finished saying this, Zhao An was taken aback.

"What? Dad, did you hear me right? ”

"It's so important, how could I have misheard." The village chief glanced at his youngest son angrily, "It was your sister-in-law Mai who said it herself, if you are really assigned to the border pass, you want to find your brother Da Rong, your brother Da Rong was recalled, it must be a bit of status, with him, you can get a little care." ”

Zhao An slowly calmed down, he nodded heavily, and said that he would, after saying this, he didn't know what he thought, and he became excited again.

"As soon as I look at the momentum on my brother Da Rong, he doesn't look like an ordinary person, maybe...... Maybe he's still an official! ”

I have to say that Zhao An is the truth.

The village chief also felt so, he babbled and told his youngest son, he was very worried, he was afraid that he would never return.

The rest of the village, like the village chief, was uneasy.

The old Zhao family is no exception, the Sun family scolded the heavens and the earth at home, and after scolding, they asked Zhao Tiesheng to go to Tian Wheat to borrow money, and their family left Zhao Erhua to serve them, and it was impossible for them to send Zhao Erhua out.

Zhao Tiesheng took a puff of dry cigarette, and after spitting it out, he looked up at Sun, "Isn't there enough silver at home?" Didn't you hear from the villagers? The old family borrowed five taels of silver, and the more ones were gone. ”

Of the four sons in his family, the eldest son is already on the battlefield, the third son has run away from home and his whereabouts are unknown, and the fourth son is in the county town and can't go back a few times a year, leaving the second son by their side.

From the bottom of his heart, he was unwilling to send his second son out.

Sun's hand was thrust into her waist, saying that she was Tian Mai's mother-in-law, and Zhao Erhua was her younger brother, and she had to help if she didn't help, and she had to help.

As soon as he saw Sun's attitude, Zhao Tiesheng's brows furrowed tightly, "With your attitude, who will lend you money?" "If you ask for someone, you have to look like you're begging, and don't look like someone else owes her.

Sun Shi choked for a moment, glared at Zhao Tiesheng angrily, and then turned to Zhao Erhua, "Old/Er, you take the dog and the dog to ask for a field of wheat early tomorrow morning, and let her lend you twenty taels of silver, for the sake of the dog's leftovers, she should borrow it." "After working against Tian Wheat for so long, she also knows a little bit about Tian Mai.

Tian Mai is a person who eats soft and not hard, and if you ask her, she should agree.

"I'll go by myself, and I won't take the dogs and dogs left." Since the separation from Ma's family, Zhao Erhua has changed a lot, he is no longer so selfish, and he will think about others a little, "My sister-in-law has helped our family a lot, we can't take revenge and use the child to get her sympathy." ”

His dog Egg Dog Leftover can go to school, or the silver from the field of wheat, for this, he is very grateful to her, how can he take Dog Egg Dog Leftover to force her?

"What is this......"

Before Sun's words were finished, he was interrupted by Zhao Tiesheng with a cold face, "Don't mix it indiscriminately, listen to the oldest/second, let him go by himself." "As soon as you are mixed up by the Sun family, things will have to go bad.

She knew that Tian Mai was a person who ate soft and not hard, but she still couldn't remember this, she had to fight against Tian Mai in everything, and he really obeyed her.

"Mother, I'll go by myself, and I don't need others to go." Zhao Erhua also followed to persuade Sun, and he was afraid that she would mess things up.

He was afraid of death, he didn't dare to be a soldier, and he was even more afraid that he wouldn't be able to come back if he went, so that there would be no motherless dogs left, and there would be no father, then they would really become children without a father and a mother.

For this reason, he could only be cheeky to borrow money from Tian Mai.

Since Zhao Erhua said so, Sun didn't say anything more, she pursed her lips and hummed reluctantly.

Early the next morning, before dawn, Zhao Erhua went to Zhao's house to look for wheat.

He was afraid that after dawn, it would not be good for others to see it.

When Tian Mai heard him coming, he got up and guessed the reason why he came.

"Is the second brother coming to me to borrow money?" She asked Zhao Erhua straight to the point.

Even if Zhao Erhua's skin was thick, he couldn't help blushing, he rubbed his hands, nodded and said yes.

After taking a deep look at Zhao Erhua, Tian Mai asked him how much he wanted to borrow?

"II...... Twenty taels. Zhao Erhua was embarrassed to look at Tian Mai, lowered his head and replied, "I'...... I'll find a way to pay it back to you, and I won't pay it back. "I don't know if my sister-in-law is willing to lend it to him?

"Yes, but you have to sign an IOU."

Hearing this, Zhao Erhua raised his head sharply and looked at Tian Mai, he didn't expect her to lend him so simply.

"Okay, I'll sign it."

As long as you are willing to lend him money, you can ask him to sign as many IOUs as you want.
