When the old lady heard this, she couldn't close her mouth happily, and after a while, the old lady went into the house to pour water, and the father started to kill the chicken.

The old lady was holding a water bowl in one hand and a mazazi in the other, asking her son to sit down and drink water, Zhang Meng asked Jiang Mei: "Mother, where is my daughter-in-law?" ”

When the old lady heard this, she hurriedly said: "Oh, when I saw my son, I liked to patronize it, and I forgot my daughter-in-law, who was cutting pigweed on the hill behind the house." ”

When the father heard this, he dropped the dead chickens that were fluttering all over the ground, rubbed his hands and said, "I'm going to call my daughter-in-law home." ”

Zhang Meng heard it and said, "Then I'll go find her!" As he spoke, he got up and went out, and the old lady stopped the old man behind and said, "By the way, tell your son to call his daughter-in-law by himself." ”

Zhang Meng came to the door and saw Ma San'er squatting next to the horse, looking at home, and said, "Forget it, Ma San'er is still outside." As he spoke, he pulled up Ma San'er, pushed him into the door, and shouted: "Mom, this is my guard Ma San'er." Then he commanded, "Come in, come into the house and drink water, and wait for me, and I will go out for a while." ”

When the old couple in the courtyard heard that Zhang Meng was with the guards, they said happily: "My son has become a big official, and he still has guards." ”

At this time, Zhang Meng had already turned to the cliff behind the house, and when he took a look, he saw a lush and chaotic forest up and down the hillside, where to see Jiang Mei's figure?

After looking at it carefully for a while, he still couldn't see it, so he put his hands together in the shape of a trumpet and began to shout: "Jiang Mei, Jiang Mei, where are you?" ”

After shouting three or four times, I heard a woman's voice reply, "Who, am I here, what is the matter?" ”

Zhang Meng listened, followed the sound to look down, and saw a woman washing pigweed in the shade of a tree by the stream, standing there and looking back.

Zhang Meng came to him and saw Jiang Mei standing on the rock with her bare feet, so she hurriedly came over and hugged her and asked, "What's the matter, you don't know me?" Ginger plum. ”

As soon as Jiang Mei saw that it was Zhang Meng, she couldn't express her joy for a while, so she struggled to struggle out, and opened her mouth vigorously: "How is it, how is it, when are you back, oops, oops, you have been out for so many days, and you have come back." ”

When Zhang Meng saw it, he hurriedly hugged Jiang Mei, squatted down, sent her feet into the stream, and washed the soil off her feet. Then he took Jiang Mei to a clean place in the bamboo forest, put it on the ground, and asked Jiang Mei: "How is it, how are you doing at home?" ”

"Well, okay, okay. Did you go out and out of tolerance? Jiang Mei asked, patting the clean place next to her with her hand, and motioned for Zhang Meng to sit down and talk, so Zhang Meng sat down with Jiang Mei.

As soon as Zhang Meng sat down, he fumbled and took out a ring from his arms, pulled Jiang Mei's left hand, and said, "Bring you a ring, come on, wear it, it's not appropriate." As he spoke, he put the ring king Jiang Mei's finger on it, and after slowly putting it on, he measured it and said, "It's just right." It's golden. You see, like? ”

At this time, Jiang Mei was already crying excitedly, and her body began to soften, so she nodded again and again, and kept saying: "Suitable, so good-looking!" As he spoke, he slowly lowered his body and rested his head on Zhang Meng's lap.

When Zhang Meng saw it, he got up and took off the long shirt on his body, spread it on the thick bamboo leaves, and put Jiang Mei's body on the long cedar, and then lay down with Jiang Mei by himself. That's it, the two ······ Needless to say, Zhang Meng is like a bear who has been hungry for three years and nine months, dividing three times by five, and Jiang Mei is gone!

While doing things, Zhang Meng thought: "Gao Ling, hum, and Liu Ying, I told you to be stubborn, look, although I didn't treat you ——, without you, I would still ······"

The two of them had stopped raining, so they packed up their ropes, started talking again, said some short things in the parents, and saw that the time was not early, so they turned over, and Zhang Meng carried the pigweed on Jiang Mei's back and came home from the mountain road together.

In this way, Zhang Meng lived at home for three days, and on the fourth night, after dinner, when he went to bed, Zhang Meng told Jiang Mei that he was going on a business trip the next day, saying that he was going out this time, and the task was heavy, and he might not be able to go home for a year and a half.

When Jiang Mei heard this, she asked where to go, and Zhang Meng said: "Military operations, it is difficult to say where to do things for a while, but it is certain that you can't come back for a long time." ”

"Then take me with you, I'll also be a soldier, and I can't see or hook at home all year round, which makes people worry."

When Zhang Meng heard this, he hurriedly said: "This is unacceptable, on the battlefield, the white knife goes in and the red knife comes out to fight, how can you go to the battlefield as a woman?" Zhang Meng paused here and said, "Besides, the two old men in the family, who will serve you after you leave?" It's all so old. ”

"Aren't there female soldiers in your barracks? They can do it, but I can't? ”

Zhang Meng was taken aback when he heard this, and thought, how did she know? How did she know that there were female soldiers in the barracks? Thinking of this, he replied: "Those female soldiers are just some medical officers, who are responsible for rescuing the wounded, and you don't know how to heal." ”

When Jiang Mei heard this, she no longer squeaked, so she had to tell Zhang Meng: "Fight as a soldier outside, pay attention to your body, work hard, don't let people worry······ If you can't wait for the war, come back early. ”

Zhang Meng agreed one by one, and the night passed like this.

After breakfast the next day, Zhang Meng said goodbye to the second elder and his wife, and took Ma San'er to return to the Danqukou Station.

Tell the elderly: "Pay attention to your health at home, this money is enough for your expenses for a few years, don't plant so much land, plant less, just have enough food to eat." ”

The old man agreed one by one, Zhang Meng thought for a while, opened another large package, left some real money from the public that was ready to be used along the way, and instructed: "Leave these things, in case there is something urgent at home, you don't need to go out to borrow." ”

When he left these public gold and silver, Zhang Meng had a struggle in his mind: "I am a fake public and private, it is corruption, but it makes sense for me to do this - the Qi family can settle the world!"

I go to the door to do big things, do big things and save more wealth for the country, isn't it? Hum! No matter how much it is, just do it! ”

In this way, Zhang Meng took Ma San'er to say goodbye to his family and returned to the post station, and along the way Zhang Meng asked Ma San'er: "Well, let me ask you, did you tell me that there are female soldiers in the barracks for my daughter-in-law?" Isn't it? ”
