Chapter 7 The Resurrection of My Father
"Whoa!"
Jiang Huailiang pulled the reins hard to stop the horse, turned to look at the little fat boy who suddenly jumped out, frowned and asked a few questions seriously.
"Whose child are you from? Can't you see the horse coming? Why are you rushing out like that?"
Jiang Yaozu, who was already immersed in the tragic scenario of robbers entering the village and picking on the fat children, didn't even hear what the other person was asking and started howling.
"Ooooooh, don't eat me!
Help, sister! "
Jiang Wan, who was summoned, rushed out of the ditch directly, rushed to the front of the horse at the fastest speed, picked up the coward and stuffed it to Jiang Han, then turned his head to look at the person who came.
Then his eyes flashed.
Is Jiang Laosan blind? How can this be a bandit? Look at the full set of light armor he's wearing. He looks so majestic and imposing. Isn't this clearly the attire of an ancient soldier or general?
Jiang Wan quickly bent down and bowed to apologize.
"I'm sorry, my brother's brain is not very good. I hope you will forgive my mistakes and don't treat a country boy like that."
Jiang Han also habitually followed behind his elder sister and echoed her.
"I'm sorry, my lords."
These two skinny girls are obviously smarter and more responsible than the chubby kid from earlier. Whose family raised them? They're quite good.
Jiang Huailiang dismounted and threw the reins to the guards behind him. With his full beard, he managed to manage a friendly smile.
"Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person."
Jiang Wan wasn't afraid at all when he didn't say that. Due to the modern memories in her mind, she had an innate respect for soldiers.
But as soon as the other party finished saying these lines that were obviously not what a good person would say, she reacted extremely quickly and took two steps forward to stand in front of her younger brothers and sisters, protecting them as they retreated.
"Thank you for your generosity. We siblings will not disturb you. I'm afraid my parents are anxiously waiting at home, so we need to go home first."
Although the words were very polite, the obvious defensiveness on the girl's face almost made Jiang Huailiang laugh.
"Don't be afraid, I'm from this village too. What's your father's name? Tell me. Who knows, you and your brothers and sisters might have to call me uncle in the future!"
Damn it!
Is he taking advantage of us?
Jiang Han pouted and looked at her eldest sister. Jiang Wan gave her a warning glare. Jiang Yaozu, who was slow to react, finally understood what was going on. He sneakily poked his fat head out from behind his second sister and quickly responded.
"My father's name is Jiang Tiesuo, but he has already... um... um..."
"Jiang San, shut up!"
The two sisters, one scolding and the other covering his mouth, pulled the idiot back several steps.
But Jiang Huailiang was stunned at this time.
"Yes, Jiang Tiesuo from Captain Jiang?"
He carefully looked at the faces of the three children again and again, and vaguely saw a sense of familiarity. In an instant, he was completely excited.
"I, that's me!"
He excitedly reached out his hand, wanting to grab the eldest girl in the front, but seeing the defensive look on the child's face, he put his hand down awkwardly.
"Are you Zhaodi?
When I was drafted into the army, your mother was only three months pregnant. So many years have passed in the blink of an eye, and you have all grown up.
Zhaodi, I am your father!"
boom!
Jiang Wan opened his eyes wide.
The father that grandma had said had long since passed away to enjoy his life, had actually come back to life like this? And looking at the way he was dressed and his demeanor, it was obvious that he had made a name for himself in the outside world!
Even when everyone was crying in the small courtyard of Old Jiang's house, Jiang Wan was still confused and a little bit unconvinced.
The little girl from the farm family is about to transform into a rich lady, right?
Isn’t this the standard configuration for the heroine in unhappy novels?
What’s going on? When I came here, I was holding the script of Destiny Child?
She had originally accepted that she would be involved in farming literature, but then suddenly a voice called "Dad" appeared out of nowhere, and she would probably have to switch to the track of harem literature and engage in intrigue.
How can I describe this feeling?
It's hard to review, anyway.
Of course, Jiang Han, who was clearly dizzy with joy, felt the same way. The little girl tugged at her older sister's sleeve, shaking it vigorously.
"Sister, hahahaha, did you hear what our father said just now? He's a general, the kind of general who manages many people under him!"
She jumped twice in joy, her two sparse yellow braids swaying up and down. Anyone could see that she was in a good mood.
"I told you that our old names weren't good enough, weren't they? Grandpa and Grandma wouldn't believe it. Look, we just changed our names to good ones, and then our dad shows up in a high position!
If I had known changing my name would be so effective, I would have changed it earlier even if I was throwing a tantrum. All those years of poverty were wasted!
It was clear that this little girl didn't want to suffer at all. When she mentioned her powerful father, she smiled with her teeth showing.
Of course, Jiang Wan thought so too.
Who wants to be a country girl when you can live a comfortable life as the eldest daughter of a general? It's not like she has any grudge against me.
Thanks to her biological father in this life, she can live the life of a rich second-generation that she has always dreamed of.
The joy of lying down can be imagined.
After Jiang Huailiang returned home in glory, the Jiang family began to worship their ancestors with drums and gongs.
The Jiang family's ancestors were so excited that they were about to produce a founding general! They had to talk about it dozens of times with their ancestors.
The old patriarch pulled Jiang Huailiang and stood in the ancestral hall with tears and snot, recalling the good and bad days.
"Eleven, you are the great hero of our Jiang family! From now on, the life and property of our clan will depend on you!"
Jiang Huailiang did not refute or agree directly, but instead held the old patriarch's hand with a moved look on his face and chatted about some heartfelt matters.
"Don't worry, great grandfather. All these years, I have relied on my clan to look after my family, young and old. I will always remember their kindness and will never forget it!
In the future, if there are any younger members of our clan who want to make progress, I will definitely be willing to help them.
We are all family. You can't write two Jiang characters with one stroke. Even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected. If they succeed, I will be proud of myself."
“Okay, okay, okay!”
The old patriarch, leaning on a peach wood cane, patted his grandson's hand with tears in his eyes.
"Don't worry, this old man will definitely keep the tribe members in check and won't let them get in your way. Eleven, when you become an official, you must not imitate those bad officials and do evil. You must be a good official, understand?"
"Hey, grandson knows."
In front of the whole family, the two of them talked back and forth, saying everything they needed to say openly, focusing on effective communication between smart people.
After three days of busy chatter, the clan finally calmed down.
