Li Changan came back from the field, and other chief ministers also gathered together one after another.

"Senator, Yunyang County has all gone, where are we going next?" Xue Shiqing stepped forward and asked.

"It's not early, let's go back to Zewu County for a night's rest." Li Changan looked at the slowly setting sun in the west, "I'm going to go to Fufeng County tomorrow." ”

"Yes." The rest of the crowd quickly bowed their heads in response.

The group once again set out on the road.

Such a situation has long become the norm.

……

And at this time,

Zewu County,

Niu Dachuan and Gou Ermao were standing at the gate of the collapsed city, looking anxiously.

"Dachuan, Master Li, they should have come back by this time, right?" Gou Ermao stepped on a stone, standing on tiptoe, wanting to see further.

"Don't worry, I should be back soon." Niu Okawa also stretched his neck,

"Maybe I've walked a little far today, and it's normal to come back late."

"Do you think Master Li is just like us, just need to work nearby? He walked through the entire Yunyang County step by step. ”

Gou Ermao thumped his legs, which were a little sore, "Could it be that Lord Li won't go back to Zewu County today and go directly to other places?" ”

Niu Dachuan was stunned for a moment, "It shouldn't be possible, right?" ”

"I heard from other adults yesterday that it should be two or three days before I go anywhere else."

"I'm definitely going to be back today."

Time passes little by little,

The sun has set in the west.

The last bit of afterglow also disappeared into the horizon.

It didn't take long for

A person ran over with a torch and hurriedly asked, "Dachuan, Ermao, did you see anyone coming back?" ”

Niu Dachuan rubbed his shoulders, "Not yet, Lord Li, they may be busy today." ”

The person holding the torch said worriedly, "Could it be that Master Li won't come back today?" ”

Two people asked this in a row, and Niu Dachuan himself was a little unsure, "...... Then why don't you ask the other officials? ”

The man with the torch shrunk his neck, "How dare I? ”

"What if I cut off my head?"

Gou Ermao smiled, "I see that your head was kicked by a donkey." ”

"It's been so many days, and although those adults look scary with straight faces, which one of them isn't doing things seriously?"

"Besides, we haven't done anything, with Master Li here, who dares to cut off our heads casually?"

While talking,

The sound of horses' hooves could be heard in the distance.

"Coming, coming......"

Niu Dachuan grabbed Gou Ermao, who was still firing guns in his mouth, "Let's go, go and invite Master Li." ”

Then he said to the man with the torch, "Leave the torch behind, and go back and inform the others, but don't delay." ”

"Okay." The man stuffed the torch into Niu Dachuan's hand, turned around and ran to the county seat.

Niu Dachuan and Gou Ermao held torches and stood at the gate of the city, waiting for the sound of horses' hooves to get closer and closer.

Li Changan saw a flickering fire not far ahead.

After getting closer, I found that it was two acquaintances, dismounted and asked,

"Niu Dachuan, Gou Ermao, what are you two doing here?"

"Master Lee." Niu Dachuan and the others stepped forward and saluted and said, "Lord Li, Uncle Fan wants to invite you to go, so let's wait for you here." ”

"Uncle Fan? What's the matter with him looking for me? Li Changan asked in surprise.

Uncle Fan was the first old man to talk to in Zewu County.

"We don't know this very well, but it's important to listen to Uncle Fan." Niu Dachuan smiled innocently.

"Okay, you lead the way." Li Changan nodded.

Niu Dachuan and Gou Ermao grinned and led the way in front, "Let's all join along......

Li Changan nodded at the others, "You guys also go with me to have a look, and we will go back to the county government together later." ”

The county seat today is somewhat quiet.

Li Changan looked at both sides and said with a smile, "Everyone slept quite early today, it seems that they are all tired today." ”

"If it weren't for you, I would have thought there was an ambush here."

Niu Dachuan and Gou Ermao, who were walking in front, heard the words and hurriedly waved their hands,

"How, how is that possible!?"

"Lord Li is kind to us, who has no conscience and wants to do this thing that was scolded by the ancestors?"

Li Changan smiled and waved his hand, "I'll tease you, look at your anxious ......"

The group followed Niu Dachuan and the others, walking on the streets that they had walked countless times in the recent period, leaving early and returning late.

The streets were quiet, except for the clattering of horses' hooves, which could be heard far away in the darkness.

came to the house where Li Changan had lived for three days.

"Squeak......

The courtyard door was opened from the inside.

The next moment, torches were lit.

The fire burns brightly.

Suddenly there was a light in front of me.

Li Changan and the directors and secretaries of the Southern Patrol Town Governor Department stood in place, their breathing trembling unconsciously.

The torch was still spreading outward.

From the alleys behind the courtyard, people came out with torches in their hands and lined up on the side of the street, all the way out.

The street that walked Li Changan and the others from the city gate to the house was all lit up.

It's like a galaxy that has fallen into the world.

Uncle Fan walked to the gate of the courtyard with his body bent, stretched out his hand and led in, "Lord Li, my lords...... Inside please. ”

Li Changan opened his mouth, his voice was a little hoarse, "Uncle Fan, ...... this?" ”

Uncle Fan grabbed Li Changan's hand and led Li Changan inside, like an ordinary grandfather leading his grandson, muttering in his mouth,

"With us, there's a rule."

"My family has been tired from working outside for so long, and I always have a hot meal to eat when I come back."

Family?

Li Changan's heart couldn't help but tremble.

A warm current flows through my heart.

In the courtyard, tables are lined up two feet long.

In addition, the courtyard and the three houses were full of people.

Everyone had a bowl in their hands, and they all had a bowl upside down.

"Serve!"

Uncle Fan waved his hand.

One by one, the people in the courtyard carefully placed the bowls on the long table, and then removed the bowls that were upside down on them.

It was a bowl of steaming dishes.

At the moment when I can't eat enough.

These people have almost taken out all their household funds so that each household can serve a bowl of vegetables.

"Smack."

"Smack."

……

Bowls of dishes quickly filled the long table.

Niu Dachuan and Gou Ermao, with the children, holding empty bowls and chopsticks, handed them to Li Changan and the rest of the Zhenfu Division.

Li Changan held the dishes and chopsticks, looking at the table of dishes in front of him, as if his heart was blocked by something, his nose twitched slowly, and his eyes kept blinking.

Behind him, the officials of the Southern Patrol Town Governor Division were similar, and their bodies were all trembling slightly.

Especially Feng Budo, Zeng Shicai, and Song Siren, their eyes were red, and they tried to control it and not let the tears flow out.

"Master Li...... Eat quickly......" Uncle Fan looked at him with an earnest face, and motioned for everyone to hurry up and eat,

"Ladies and gentlemen...... Eat......"

"Otherwise, it's cold......"

The people in the courtyard walked out of the courtyard to make room for Li Changan and the others, but everyone leaned over and leaned at the door, looking at the courtyard with blank eyes.

"Master Li...... Eat......"

"Ladies and gentlemen...... Eat it......"

A fervent call, like a grain of sand, blew into the eyes and into the heart.

Li Changan walked to the long table, trembled and picked up a chopstick dish, and put it in his mouth.

The two lines of tears could no longer hold back and slid down their cheeks.

A burst of cheers rang out outside the courtyard,

"Master Li, eat quickly, there are many more, otherwise it will be cold......"

"Ladies and gentlemen, eat quickly......"

"I made that braised pork."

"I made that bowl of vinegared cabbage."

"Try that meatball, it's going to be delicious."

......

Feng Budo strode to the long table, picked up a large piece of fat that he had never touched before, and stuffed it directly into his mouth, crying silently.

Crying and eating the dishes on the table.

Someone took the lead, and others walked to the long table.

Under the cheers of the people, chopsticks after chopsticks were stuffed into their mouths mixed with tears.

Taste doesn't matter anymore.

They just want to eat as much as they can.

Try to eat as much as you can from each dish.

Because

In this life,

Such a meal,

Most likely only once.

At this moment, after walking in the field for so many days, the blisters on my feet are worth it.

"Senator, Senator......" Feng Budo cried while eating, "this meal...... I'll remember ...... for the rest of my life."

"The first time, the first time...... There are people...... Treat us like family......"

Xue Shiqing was eating, and suddenly bent down towards Li Changan, big tears dripping to the ground, and he couldn't say a word.

The other directors and secretaries of the Southern Patrol Town Governor Division also bowed to Li Chang'an.

If it weren't for Li Changan.

How could they have eaten this meal for the people?

In the sky, there was a faint blue-purple luck, falling like snowflakes and falling on everyone.

It's like a cloud.

Li Changan took a deep breath, looked up at the sky, held back his tears, and slowly spoke, his voice hoarse,

"Eat!"
