Chapter Twenty-Eight: Mother's Love Knows No Bounds
If someone comes to talk, Li Jiang naturally has to answer well, and gives a salute, "It doesn't matter who we are, seniors, what is important is happening, I will tell you word by word." So he told him what had happened.
Zhou Qi listened without any emotion. The ancient well has no waves, and it is a very good state of mind. raised his palm, just when Li Jiang and the others thought that he was going to attack him. "Slap" hit Zhou Yuan with a slap.
"Second uncle, you ......" Zhou Yuan didn't expect it.
"What are you, I grew up watching you, I don't know what virtues you have? Immediately take your people to get out of the house, from today onwards, you can't take half a step out of the house, if you come out, I'll break your legs. A scolding.
Zhou Yuan only covered his face and listened, but his second uncle did what he said. It's over, but it's finally time to leave this place. Bypassing the three of them, he went upstairs and kicked the housekeeper, "When are you going to lie down, go home!"
The housekeeper's entourage got up in pain and followed Zhou Yuan to staggered away.
The three of them didn't stop it, and with the strength of the city lord, the three of them had no choice.
"Let the three young heroes see the joke, it's also my elders, who are incompetent and not strict in discipline. The tone was calm and couldn't see the slightest falsehood, but it made Li Jiang scratch his head.
"The lord doesn't blame us, we beat your nephew and his men. ”
"Do you blame you for teaching my nephew who is not a good man? I am really glad that he endured hardships and learned some lessons. "As for the underground, they have to take responsibility for what they do. Besides, I don't have the right to punish you. The last sentence was very soft for the three of them to hear, and he even pointed to the sky and smiled at the three of them.
How could they not understand the meaning of these intelligent people, it is to see the origin of the three people.
"How does the city lord know where we come from?" asked Li Jiang.
"Hehe, look at your age, combat strength and courage, how can you be an ordinary person, and more importantly, the location here is not difficult to guess. Then he turned to the crowd of onlookers and said, "Everyone disperse, what should you do, it's just a misunderstanding here." ”
The lord of the city spoke, and although the onlookers were confused, they could only disperse, and the originally crowded streets became spacious, but there were still people looking at this place from time to time.
"Shopkeeper, the things that were broken here today and the expenses of the three young heroes are counted in the account of the city lord's mansion, and the three of them can't be neglected. ”
The shopkeeper was very grateful in his heart, and Zhou Yuan walked away from the broken table, but it was also a fee and now it was settled. "It's the city lord, and the villain will entertain the three VIPs in a while. ”
"Okay, three, you can taste the food here slowly, I still have something to deal with in the house, so I will leave first. ”
"What about these people?" Jiang Hai pointed to the official on the ground.
"Hmph, they have hands and feet to know how to go," and left the hotel without looking back.
Looking at Zhou Qi's disappearing back, "This person is really strong" Li Jiang said, and the two agreed.
"The three young heroes will go to the country and the sky," and then led the three of them upstairs. At this time, a few juniors hiding in the corner came out to clean up. It's just that he didn't care about the dozen or so officials, because he didn't dare.
"What do you think of the city lord," Wu Dao began
"Very strong, I can't see cultivation, at least a strong person at the level of the Sword Sect. Jiang Hai's judgment continued: "Some do not act according to common sense, but according to the attitude of the people, he should be a good official, and he has his own principles, otherwise we would not be intact to evaluate him here." ”
Li Jiang also spoke: "Powerful and upright, it is not like the way of doing things in officialdom at all, but there are some stories about being the city lord here." I didn't expect to meet such a person when I went down the mountain this time. ”
"You can't underestimate the people in the world, there are hidden masters everywhere, you must know that the small hidden in the forest is hidden in the world. I don't know if the old man who bought fish on the other side is a peerless powerhouse. ”
Li Jiang and Wu Dao looked at the old man at the fish stall diagonally opposite through the window, and the old man smiled and showed a mouth full of yellow teeth.
"Forget it, anyway, the value of this trip down the mountain, the world is very big and we are still very small. Li Jiang's eyes retracted and turned to the direction of the academy, "We still have to become stronger, where is the best place." ”
Li Jiang's words also made Jiang Hai Wu Dao fall into deep thought......
Early the next morning, Jiang Hai rode the wind and flew the eagle back, but the sky was not bad, just like his mood at the moment, the blue sky and white clouds, and the cool breeze. Obviously, this time the escort division had to talk more than the last time, so it was not a long and boring journey, and it was not until noon that he flew to Jiangcun.
A mile away from the entrance of the village, Jiang Hai begged to stop, not wanting to break the tranquility of the village, this is the flawless holy place in his heart.
"You go, I'll be watching you in the dark," the escort surnamed Jiang said and disappeared into the mountains and forests on a flying eagle. Jiang Hai walked straight to the village, his steps were very slow, and he didn't have the eagerness he had before.
The feet are familiar touches, uneven and uneven, and some of the feet are full of yesterday's stumbles. The crops between the fields have grown a lot, and they bend down and nod in the wind. Everything is a familiar breath.
Before he entered the village, he heard a dog barking, which was a yellow dog that had seen a stranger warning, but some of them were timid and hid in the corner and barked. "What's Rhubarb's name, you don't know me?"
Hearing Jiang Hai's voice, the dog stopped barking and ran to Jiang Hai's side and circled excitedly, Jiang Hai bent down and stroked its head, and the dog also leaned on his feet to enjoy.
"Who is it?", a woman stepped out of the house, looked around and saw the river and sea. "It's Xiaohai, didn't you go to some academy, why did you come back?"
"Auntie, the college is on vacation, I'll come back to see my parents. How to meet Huzi. ”
"Huzi has gone to his uncle's house, and he may not come back in a few days, if you have eaten, the aunt will make you something to eat. ”
"No, I'll go home. Jiang Hai declined the kindness of the tiger mother.
"Yes, you miss your mother. ”
Say goodbye to Tiger Mother Jianghai and go straight home, during this time the people in the village have gone out to work, very few people are at home, and they haven't met anyone. The door was open, the father was supposed to be away, and the mother was sitting in a chair doing some needlework.
"Mother," Jiang Hai called, but Xia Rong didn't react.
Jiang Hai walked into the house and called again, Xia Rong was shocked, and then she was sure that it was her child. "Xiaohai", Xia Rong put down the needle and thread in her hand, walked over and hugged Jiang Hai.
Jiang Hai enjoyed his mother's embrace, but he felt her excitement, and his eyes were a little moist when he looked up.
"Mother, why are you crying. ”
"Nonsense, my mother is just happy. Aren't you supposed to come back from the Deer Academy, it won't be skipping class, right?" suddenly became serious.
"I didn't skip class, I had nothing to do at the academy during the college holidays, so I simply came back to see, mother, I miss you. ”
When I heard the last sentence, the tears in the corners of my eyes couldn't help but fall, "It's good if you don't, I know that our Xiaohai is the most obedient, and my mother misses you too, every day, all the time." After speaking, Jiang Hailou tightened.
"Where's my father?"
"Your father has gone into the mountains, and should be back later. By the way, let Mother take a good look at you. Loosening Jiang Hai, he carefully looked at every part of his body.
"My face is thinner than before, but I look better, my hair has grown, I don't have any flesh on my body, and I have grown a lot stronger. Life at the academy is hard, isn't it?"
"It's not bitter, it's not bitter, it's not bitter, the food in the canteen is good, there are meat and vegetarians, and it's full. Jiang Hai hurriedly vetoed, or his mother would cry again.
"By the way, you shouldn't have eaten yet, my mother will cook for you. After that, he went to the stove and got busy.
Jiang Hai sat on a chair and looked at the house, there was no change in the house, it was still the same as it was at the beginning, that is, there was an extra row of meat on the wall, which was all air-dried and packaged. Jiang Hai knew that his parents had prepared it for him, because it was not yet time to store food for the winter, and there were many wild games on the walls, but all the essence. The people who love you the most in the world are always your parents.
"Jiang Hai, you didn't fight with anyone, did you," the mother didn't forget to ask.
"There was no fight, the people in the academy were good, and they were all good to me. Jiang Hai remembered Wen Hui, Meng Qin and others.
"We must unite others, others are good to us, we can't hide it, we have to know how to share. Xia Rong is educating
"Yes, Mother"
"Are there any girls in the academy, do you have any favorites? ”
"Please, mother, I'm so old, I don't have that mind. Jiang Hai was a little embarrassed by this topic
"You're not young, it's normal to be a parent at the age of thirteen or fourteen now, take the initiative when you see a girl you like, and your mother supports you. ”
Jiang Hai couldn't help but roll his eyes, who said that it was conservative in ancient times, it was not the case at all. But he had to answer. "Yes Mother. ”
"If you can't finish your schoolwork, you won't have to stay up late tomorrow, you know?"
"Yes, Mother"
"You're still young, you can't drink alcohol, it affects your body. If you're really hungry, you can drink a little more than that."
"Yes, Mother"
.......
Regarding his mother's preaching, Jiang Hai could only agree to them one by one. Because no matter how old you are, how mature and stable you are, you will always be a child in the eyes of your parents.
A moment later, a bowl of hot noodles was served in front of Jiang Hai.
"Let's eat a bowl of noodles first, and when your father comes back in the evening, we'll make something delicious." ”
Jiang Hai took the noodles and saw that there were not many noodles, but there were a lot of ingredients on them. There were two eggs, and a little unknown meat, which was piled up in a whole bowl.
"Mother, don't you eat?"
"I've eaten before, you can eat, Mother watched you eat. ”
At a glance, you know that it is a special meal, only you can eat, and the situation at home is very clear, not poor but not rich, can solve the problem of food and clothing. On the other hand, it also proves that the most beautiful existence in nature is maternal love.
"Look at what to eat," Xia Rong looked at Jiang Hai without blinking, urging him to eat quickly.
Jiang Hai took the chopsticks and began to eat, the noodles were plain, but they were so delicious and warm. made Jiang Hai's eyes roll with tears.
"Why is Xiaohai crying, isn't it delicious?" Xia Rong saw Jiang Hai's red eyes.
"No, my mother made the most delicious and delicious thing in the world. ”
"It's just burning my eyes. Jiang Hai explained with tears in his eyes
"I'll eat it later, silly boy," Xia Rong took the bowl from Jiang Hai's hand and put it on the table, "Come and let my mother take a look", pulled Jiang Hai, looked at his eyes, and blew lightly, for fear of hurting Jiang Hai.
Jiang Hai fell into his mother's arms, tears falling like rain. Xia Rong also hugged Jiang Hai and gently stroked Jiang Hai's head. Gently said "silly boy......."
