Chapter 19: Leaving Home

It's five cold and summer exchanges, everything in Pengjia Village still hasn't changed, it's still simple and natural, quiet and peaceful, Zhang Xiaoqi's home conditions slowly got better after Zhang Xiaoqi took back the piece of dog's head silver, and it was also a small asset in Pengjia Village, but it was not too revealing under Zhang's mother's control, but the living standard of the family has improved significantly, the most obvious is food, most of the brothers and sisters in the family are married, and Zhang Xiaoqi and his fourth sister Zhang Miao are still at home;

Zhang Xiao is seventy-one years old, he is already as tall as Lao Zhang's shoulders, and his appearance does not inherit too much from his father, but he is more like his mother, but his father's pair of sword eyebrows are on Zhang Xiaoqi's face, his lips are red and his teeth are white, his eyes are big, and he has been dyed by six years of reading and learning words, Zhang Xiaoqi is definitely the most handsome descendant in Pengjia Village now;

Zhang Xiaoqi can now help his parents do a lot of work, but his parents don't allow Zhang Xiaoqi to do too much work, so that he either reads or practices words every day, hoping that the old Zhang family can produce a reader in Zhang Xiaoqi's generation, and now the old master Gan has nothing to teach Zhang Xiaoqi, four years ago, the old Zhang took the apprenticeship ceremony with Zhang Xiaoqi and Zhang Xiaoqi came to the door in person, let Zhang Xiaoqi apprentice to the old master Gan, plus the old master Gan also likes the smart and clever Zhang Xiaoqi, and he agreed, after four years of study, Zhang Xiaoqi hollowed out the old master Gan, and the old master Gan was even more relieved, personally repaired the book to his friend, and let Zhang Xiaoqi go there with a letter to continue studying, to coincide with the plan of the phoenix-tailed Hades King Butterfly Mochen and Tianma Jili, saving a lot of thoughts;

In the early spring of March, not far away Fengwei Mountain is still a little speckled with white snow and is reluctant to leave, staying at the top of the mountain, the bottom of the mountain has a slight green is spreading to the mountainside, the small river at the entrance of the village has been civilized, the swimming fish in the water are opening their mouths that have been suffocating for a winter, greedily breathing the air in spring;

At the entrance of Pengjia Village, the whole family of the Zhang family came, looking at Zhang Xiaoqi carrying the hiking cage, Zhang's mother's tears couldn't stop flowing, crossing her cheeks and falling on the front of her clothes, it was wet for a long time, Lao Zhang also had red eyes, but with hope in his eyes, many brothers and sisters also had tears in their eyes, Zhang Xiaoqi hugged his mother and cried only with the sound of sobbing, but he still had to go;

Zhang Xiaoqi waved goodbye to the family who saw him off, with tears in his eyes, and boarded the carriage of Peng Fatdun'er's family to transport grain, Peng Fatdun's family has its own grain seller shop in Tai'an County, and there is a grain convoy to Tai'an County every month, more than a dozen people escort the convoy, safety is not too worrying, there has been no problem for decades, among them, there is also a martial artist hired by the Peng family at a high price, and Zhang Xiaoqi rested in a car, the grain convoy slowly started, and gradually drove away from Pengjia Village;

Compared with parting, the most painful thing is not parting, but the memories after parting;

Zhang Xiaoqi was in the somewhat bumpy carriage, his eyes were still red, thinking about all the things he had with his family in the past, the pain in his heart was unbearable, and he didn't have much conversation with the martial artist in the same car, just Shi Li said hello, and fell asleep with the cage in his arms......

I don't know how long it took, Zhang Xiaoqi woke up in the bumpy carriage and saw the martial artist sitting opposite looking at him,

"Xiao Langjun, you're awake, come and drink saliva first" said and handed over the water bag hanging on the inner wall of the carriage, Zhang Xiaoqi took the water bag and thanked him first, and then pulled out the cork, drank it in a big gulp, looking very thirsty, the martial artist on the opposite side waited for him to finish drinking, took the water bag, plugged it and hung it in place, and asked:

"Xiaolang Jungui's surname, look at your appearance, are you going to study?" Zhang Xiaoqi heard the martial artist sitting opposite speak, and then he glanced at the martial artist, the martial artist opposite was not tall, strong, dressed in a standard black samurai short placket, with a dark gray robe on the outside of the short placket, the neck was a little short and thick, the traces left by the wind and sun on the face, thick eyebrows, ring eyes, square nose and wide mouth, looked very square;

"Hello uncle, don't have your surname Zhang, the chapter of the article, Zhang Shengzhe, I went to study in Tai'an County, uncle, your surname is big?" Zhang Xiaoqi looked at the martial artist with a simple face and asked;

"How can there be a noble surname, just an errand runner who escorts goods for others, you can call me Tong Da Niu, I can't compare to you, a precious scholar" Tong Da Niu said, his expression was a little twisted unnatural, and he couldn't let go;

Zhang Xiaoqi looked at Tong Daniu's crampedness, remembered that his father was also like this when he faced the old master Gan, and his eyes were a little red, but he couldn't hold back and didn't let the tears flow, and Tong Daniu on the opposite side didn't know what to do, but when he saw that the young man on the other side was about to shed tears again, he didn't know what to do;

After a while, Zhang Xiaoqi's mood calmed down, and he looked at Tong Daniu with some embarrassment; in order to alleviate the embarrassment, Zhang Xiaoqi replied to the tone of the neighbor in the village and said:

"Uncle Tong, I'm sorry for your trouble, I remembered my father when I saw you just now, so I couldn't help it, don't call me Xiao Langjun, I'm at home Xingqi, you can just call me Xiao Qi" Tong Daniu heard Zhang Xiaoqi's tone change, and his good impression of Zhang Xiaoqi was even greater;

"Good men are ambitious in all directions, but men always have to learn to grow up, and they have to leave their parents when they grow up, hehe, they will slowly get used to it in the future, I really suffocated me when I learned to speak in those sour tones just now, it's much better now, Xiaoqi is hungry, let's eat some jerky to pad my stomach first, and then I'm going to camp in half an hour, and then it's hot." As he spoke, he took out an oil-paper bag from his arms, opened it and took out the largest piece of jerky from the inside and handed it to Zhang Xiaoqi, Zhang Xiaoqi hurriedly thanked him, Zhang Xiaoqi was also hungry for a day, so he took the jerky and tore it into strips of meat and sent it to his mouth;

After half an hour, sure enough, the convoy carrying grain stopped, leaned against a dirt slope and began to camp, they untied the horses first, led them to the grain carts to graze, and then connected the grain carts end to end, and arranged them in an arc under the hillside in the outermost circle, and the people were in the innermost, and some people began to cook around the fire;

Zhang Xiaoqi and the martial artist also sat in the crowd around the fire, eating not very delicious food, and listening to the nonsense of the people of the grain transportation team......
