Chapter 39: The Son of the Deceased

Da Kui sat down at the table, took the paper, picked up the pen and drowned the ink. After thinking about it, I waved my hand, and the book was written in a moment. Da Kui picked up the letterhead and said, "No, you have accepted this letter." Wu Chang took the letterhead and looked at it, with a puzzled expression: "Adult, the little one is only sparse and shallow, what are you writing here?"

If it hadn't been written by Da Kui just now, he would have probably not recognized what he had written when he showed it to him! Good guy, dragons and phoenixes dance like cockroaches crawling!

Da Kui shook his head and sighed: "Although you are in the army, do you still need to learn to read and write?" he said, pointing to the letterhead and reading: "Zhang Dakui, the political envoy of Jiangnan, is seconded to a post station soldier." Yang Xiaohu, 16 years old, from Shanxi. "The post of the seconded reconciled post station on the letter can't be written, Da Kui directly drew two circles, who will recognize such a document?

Wu Chang looked at it for a long time and was not at ease, and said timidly: "Adults may wish to leave a token, and the small ones are easy to handle." Da Kui helplessly reached into his arms, and couldn't help but regret it for a while. This trip only brought a sword and a waist card, and even a silver tael.

In desperation, Da Kui took out his waist card and patted it on Wu Chang's hand and said: "You can accept this waist card and wait for the official to pick it up." As he spoke, he picked up his sword and went out, followed closely by Captain Wu.

Out of the door, Da Kui ordered again: "Go and lead two fast horses to the official to use." Wu Chang didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly beckoned people to go to the stables together. After a short time, he brought two horses from the side of the inn. Da Kui greeted Yang Xiaohu and said, "From now on, you will be the official and follow, come with me." Yang Xiaohu took the reins of the two horses as he said and followed behind Da Kui.

When the delay was near, the two men got on their horses and hurried forward. Yang Xiaohu immediately asked, "Lord Zhang, where are we going?" Da Kui said, "Tiantai Mountain ......." The two fast horses went all the way to the south.

When it was nearly noon, Yang Xiaohu rode a horse and followed Da Kui and smiled at Da Kui: "My lord, there is a small town in front. The fragrant rice cakes in town are delicious. Da Kui smiled when he heard this, he was so greedy at his age. couldn't help but reply loudly: "It's okay, let's eat in the town and then leave." ”

After walking for another half hour, they came to a small town. Yang Xiaohu took Da Kui to a rice cake shop with him, and was just about to enter the door when he saw four big men stopping in front of the door like mountains. Da Kui couldn't help but ask a man: "This brother, why are you stopping in front of the door?"

The man looked Da Kui up and down, and saw that he was a person with luxurious clothes, so he didn't dare to offend at will, so he said bluntly: "This shopkeeper owes my master money for the rent of his shop, and now it has been blocked by us, if you want to eat, go elsewhere." Da Kui turned his head to look at Yang Xiaohu and gloated: "You can't eat your fragrant rice cake." Seeing Yang Xiaohu's unhappy face, Da Kui was afraid of his shoulder and said, "Let's go, take you to the big restaurant." If you want to eat, please order it. ”

Yang Xiaohu asked happily when he heard this: "Really, you can eat anything?" Da Kui laughed and said, "How can this official deceive your little follower?"

The shopkeeper in front of the door saw the guests coming, and saw that Da Kui was dressed luxuriously, and he hurriedly came over to lead the horse, and turned around and sang: "Two distinguished guests, please upstairs." Da Kui was used to seeing such forces, and the shopkeeper didn't care, so he took Xiaohu upstairs.

Choosing a seat by the window, the two sat down and called the man. Da Kui smiled and asked Yang Xiaohu: "What do you want to eat?" Yang Xiaohu thought for a while and said, "I want a braised fish and a chestnut chicken." Speaking of pride, he didn't want to be underestimated by Lord Zhang in front of him, and he always had to prove that he had also seen the world. In fact, he had only heard these two dishes from Chief Wu, but he had never eaten them himself. Think about a child who fled from the countryside, when did he go to the restaurant to eat?

Da Kui smiled and said to the guy: "Good dishes on the table, fifteen steamed buns." Well, let's have another pound of flower carving. The man sang a no, turned and went downstairs.

While waiting for the food, Da Kui asked, "Who else is there in your family?" Yang Xiaohu's eyes turned red, and he said in a low voice: "No, my father used to be a partial general of the Jiangbei Red Turban Army, and later died in Anfeng." My mother fled to Jiangnan with me, and later died of illness, and I joined the army helplessly in order to stutter. And as he spoke, he burst into tears.

Da Kui couldn't help but be shocked when he heard that Yang Xiaohu's father was the Jiangbei Red Turban Army. Hurriedly asked: "What's your father's name?" Yang Xiaohu's eyes were red and said, "My father's name is Yang Yonghuai." Da Kui was stunned when he heard this, that Yang Yonghuai was his subordinate general at the beginning.

I remember that I was seriously injured after losing Badulu in the war, and after recovering from my injuries, I made up for my death and practiced martial arts diligently. Liu Futong set up a martial arts hall with strong soldiers, and Yang Yonghuai was one of the generals in the martial arts hall. Because Da Kui is particularly attentive to gunmanship, he is very close to Yang Yonghuai. Later, Yang Yonghuai followed Da Kui to conquer the south and make countless achievements in the northern war, and the battle of Anfeng broke through to the eagle's beak with himself, and finally fell into a deep siege. (See Chapter 21 of Volume 1 for details)

Heaven is pitiful, today I happened to meet the son of the deceased. Da Kui was inexplicably excited: "Didn't your father talk to you about me?" Yang Xiaohu looked at Da Kui and said: "When I was still young, when I was six years old, my father went to join the army and never came back, and then I came back with my father's fellow villagers who joined the army and told me about my father." ”

Speaking of which, the dish came up. The restaurant has always been attentive to the distinguished guests, and it only takes a few moments for the dishes to be served. Da Kui personally held the wine jug and poured two glasses, and handed one to Yang Xiaohu. Yang Xiaohu shook his hand and said, "I won't drink." Da Kui remembered what Tang He had said when he first met Tang He. At this time, Da Kui copied over and said: "The man is ambitious in all directions, and the hero has no amount of alcohol." Come, have three drinks with the official first. ”

Yang Xiaohu had no choice but to change cups with Da Kui and drink three cups. After three cups, Yang Xiaohu was already blushing and shook his hand and said, "Master Zhang, I can't drink anymore, let's eat." Da Kui smiled and said: "Eat, eat, eat to your heart's content, and order it if you don't have enough dishes." ”

Yang Xiaohu promised and began to bow his head and eat, and Da Kui felt a little unbearable when he saw his eating appearance.

It can really be said: 'The horse leather shroud covers the bones of loyalty, and the name of the young man is not seen in history', so that Dakui is embarrassed that the descendants of such a hero have fallen here.

Da Kui drank by himself until Yang Xiaohu finished eating and leaned back on the chair and burped. Da Kuicai asked, "Have you eaten enough?" Yang Xiaohu scratched his head a little embarrassed and said, "Well, I haven't eaten so full for a long time." Da Kui smiled and turned his head to call the guy and said, "Make a good pot of tea." After that, he said to Yang Xiaohu: "Drink some water, and follow the official to eat whatever you want to eat in the future, and the official will invite you to eat." Yang Xiaohu's eyes were shining: "Really?" Da Kui said: "Of course it's true." ”

Yang Xiaohu smiled and said, "I... I've eaten a lot of food, but the adults haven't eaten yet. Da Kui looked down at the leftovers on the table and smiled: "It's okay, this official is also from a poor background." As he spoke, he grabbed the steamed buns and ate and drank the leftovers.

Yang Xiaohu was moved in his heart, and held the wine pot to pour wine for Da Kui.
