There are not many things to bring, just some personal clothes and the like, but the most important thing is the ten kilograms of food left at home, and we have to find a way to bring it over.
It would be too conspicuous to drag it into the city in such a blatant manner, so they finally decided to put the food at the bottom, cover it with bedding, and sit on the bedding so that they would not be discovered.
Jiang Tuantuan and his group of four set off. When they arrived at their new home, it was spotlessly clean and they could live there as long as they put their things in.
Jiang Dafeng and Feng Xiaoli lived in the main house, Jiang Tuantuan lived in the left wing, and Jiang Li lived in the right wing.
The furnishings in the left wing are very simple, with a bed, a table, two chairs, and a small single room separated by a screen, which contains a desk and shelves for placing things.
There was actually a big iron pot, a barbecue rack, and some charcoal left in the kitchen. It was just right to invite some friends over in a couple of days to have a barbecue.
Because Jiang Tuantuan was already eight months pregnant and could give birth at any time, Feng Xiaoli found a midwife early and even prepared a room for the midwife to live in.
Jiang Tuantuan was lying in the room, touching her belly, feeling very sad. The child in her belly would be born without a father, and she didn't know how the original owner's husband was doing on the battlefield.
At this time, a cavalryman from the capital quickly rushed towards the city gate, showed his token and entered the palace unimpeded.
"Your Majesty, this battle was a great victory. The army will return to the capital in three days!"
The emperor was delighted and immediately ordered the people in the Imperial Household Department to prepare to welcome the army back to the capital in three days.
After living in the new home for two days to get familiar with the new home, Jiang Tuantuan invited Su Qingming, Zhou Rouer and Hua He to come and celebrate. It happened that Er Laizi also brought a truck of eggs to the county town to sell today. Before leaving, Jiang Tuantuan asked Er Laizi to come to the county town once a week to deliver eggs, milk and chickens.
Jiang Li lit the charcoal fire, and together with Er Laizi, they slaughtered the chicken, cleaned it, marinated it with some seasonings, and decided to have roast chicken for lunch.
Su Qingming was the first to arrive. He brought some medicinal herbs to replenish qi and blood to celebrate Jiang Tuantuan's move to a new house. Hua He brought her own purse with calming incense in it, and Rouer brought a deer leg.
The chicken was cut into two halves and then roasted on the fire. Jiang Tuantuan also wanted to try it, but unfortunately his belly was too big and it was inconvenient for him to move, so he could only watch.
Jiang Li volunteered and successfully grilled the meat until it was burnt. Rou'er laughed and said, "Let me grill it. I really like barbecue and I often grill it with my brother and dad at home."
As expected, foodies are more adept at this. The meat roasted by Zhou Rouer is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, sprinkled with a little bit of cumin and chili, which makes people want to eat one piece after another.
Jiang Tuantuan couldn't eat too much because she was pregnant. After eating a small piece, she started drinking the porridge that Feng Xiaoli made for her.
After eating and drinking, everyone started chatting about family matters. Zhou Rouer held her face with her hands and frowned, saying, "I heard from my housekeeper a few days ago that a teacher at a school on West Street had all his family members die because of a dam collapse. The teacher couldn't bear the shock and committed suicide."
"That's really pitiful."
Jiang Tuantuan asked, "Has the school found a new teacher yet?"
"No."
"Can my dad go?"
Everyone looked at Jiang Tuantuan, wondering, "Your father can also teach?"
"yes."
The next day, Jiang Dafeng got up early, packed up and went to the school on West Street. It was very close to his home and it took less than a quarter of an hour to walk there.
The students in that school were a group of teenagers, about six to eight years old. They were learning the most basic Three Character Classic and simple arithmetic. These were very easy for Jiang Dafeng, so Jiang Dafeng successfully became a teacher.
He could earn one and a half hundred coins every month, with one class in the morning and one in the afternoon. It wasn't very tiring, and was very suitable for Jiang Dafeng's body.
Because of this convenience, Jiang Li did not have to pay tuition and went to school with Jiang Dafeng every day. However, he had to take care of cleaning the school. Jiang Li was still very happy. He would take an hour every night to copy books and then sell them to bookstores to earn money. The more he copied, the more beautiful his handwriting became. Finally, a book could be sold for one hundred coins.
Three days later, the army entered the capital.
"Lieutenant General Li, let's go quickly. His Majesty is still waiting for us in the palace," a middle-aged man with a gray beard said to the young man next to him. The young man had dark skin, thick eyebrows, a high nose, and was tall. He had a muscular body due to marching and fighting, and looked very strong and powerful.
"good."
After entering the palace, I saw the emperor standing in front of the Golden Throne Hall, and the officials behind him were standing in an orderly manner, waiting for the generals to return.
"Your Majesty, your humble servant greets you," General Meng and Lieutenant General Li saluted at the same time.
The emperor bent down and helped the two men up. "Please stand up quickly, both of you. Thanks to you, our country is stable."
Lieutenant General Li and the emperor met eyes and found that they actually had some similarities, especially their eyebrows and eyes, which were really similar.
The emperor was a little stunned, but after quickly reacting, he invited the two of them into the palace for a banquet.
After the banquet, General Meng and Lieutenant General Li were called to the study room alone.
I heard General Meng say in the letter that this victory was all thanks to Lieutenant General Li!
At that time, the battle situation was tense and the siege had been going on for a long time. If it were not for Lieutenant General Li leading a team of soldiers into the city and raiding the enemy, it would have been impossible to capture the Huns' city so quickly.
"Thank you for the praise, Your Majesty. This success is only possible thanks to the bravery and fighting spirit of all my brothers."
"Based on your military merit, I will reward you with a house in the capital and a thousand taels of silver. Is there anything else you want?"
"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty. I just want to go home as soon as possible to spend time with my wife and children."
The emperor laughed and said, "Then I will grant you a six-month vacation to recuperate, but if anything happens in the court, you must come back immediately."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After Lieutenant General Li and General Meng left, the Emperor sighed to the eunuch beside him, "Lieutenant General Li is truly a talent. I heard he reached this position after only one year of military service. His eyes and eyebrows are especially similar to mine."
After hearing this conversation, the eunuch, unsure of the emperor's mood, flattered him by saying, "This Lieutenant General Li bears some resemblance to Your Majesty. His ancestors must have been very kind."
The emperor was quite pleased to hear this and his mood immediately improved.
After handing over the work, Lieutenant General Li didn't even look at his own house. He just took the silver and money and rode away to Jizhou at full speed.
On the way, I saw many refugees competing to collect mountain weeds for food. I learned that during the war, Jizhou had suffered a flood, and many people died, and Daping Village was among them.
