At night, Yang Haiyan tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. To be honest, she is a confident girl in modern times. Although she is not very pretty, she is not embarrassed to take her out. Even though she has no parents and no help from her family, she thinks she is not too bad considering her income, education and career. But now, she is a little nervous. This is probably the emotion that every girl will have when meeting her boyfriend's parents.
Qin Fang watched her tossing and turning, and hugged her in his arms: "Sleep peacefully." He didn't know that his wife was worried about meeting her parents-in-law.
Yang Haiyan saw him with his eyes closed, and remembered that he smiled more than usual during the day. She knew that he was going back to see his family. She was happy, so she didn't bother him. She sighed and closed her eyes to count sheep.
The next day, Yang Haiyan couldn't get up successfully. Qin Fang picked her up from the bed and put clothes on her. Of course, he touched her a lot when he was dressing her.
Yang Haiyan was a little surprised: "Husband, you are so good at dressing girls."
Qin Fang straightened her clothes, touched her chest, and then walked out of the room proudly. He didn't respond to Yang Haiyan's words.
Yang Haiyan: "..."
After washing up, the two had breakfast and prepared to go back to their hometown.
A horse carriage, which was quite large, because there was a donkey carriage of moderate size, so the carriage was made slightly larger, so that the four boxes would not look crowded in the carriage. A box of fur and a box of cloth were placed side by side at the bottom, and a box of Yang Haiyan's things and a box of Qin Fang's things were placed on top for easy access.
Kunshi was accompanying them, because Kunshi's family was also in the Qin family's area, and after arriving, Kunshi also wanted to go home. The reason why I didn't bring servants with me when I went back to my hometown this time was that the Qin family had limited rooms, and if I brought servants with me, I would have to vacate a place to live, but this was not the main reason. The main reason was that the Qin family were ordinary people, and it would make them uncomfortable to bring servants with them. There is another reason, which is also Yang Haiyan's careful consideration. If she brings servants with her, in the eyes of others, they will have a particularly good life at the border.
Not to mention that distant relatives may come to ask for help, even close relatives within three generations may ask them for something.
As a relative, Yang Haiyan is also willing to help with ordinary things. After all, everyone may encounter difficulties. To put it bluntly, the purpose of relatives is not this?
However, Yang Haiyan has seen too many excellent relatives in novels, and she is afraid that some relatives have no sense of propriety and will make a big fuss when they open their mouths. If they refuse, it will hurt the relationship between the two families, and if they agree, they will not be happy in their hearts. So it is better not to bring servants.
Before getting on the carriage, Yang Haiyan held Nanny Lian's hand and said, "I'll leave the house to you. As for the monthly allowance for March, if I haven't come back yet, I'll delay it and pay it when I come back."
Nanny Lian said, "Don't worry, we all understand."
Yang Haiyan said, "You'll have to work hard this month when I'm away. I'll remember all your kindness."
Nanny Lian leaned forward and said, "I dare not. As long as Madam is well, I'll be relieved."
Yang Haiyan got on the carriage.
"Drive..." Kunshi drove the carriage, and Qin Fang rode the horse.
The distance from the border to Baili Village in Jintian County was not short, and because the carriage was not fast, and because they were taking the official road instead of the small road, the distance was longer. It took a full five days to reach Jintian County.
Arriving at Jintian County, it was getting dark. Yang Haiyan said, "Husband, let's stay in the inn for one night and go back to the village tomorrow. Otherwise, if we go back now, we will disturb our family's rest, and I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort to prepare dinner for us."
Qin Fang thought it made sense: "Then stay in the inn for one night."
The next day
Kunshi and Qin Fang separated. He had to travel two days to get home from Jintian County. After Kunshi left, Qin Fang went to the carriage shop to hire a coachman, and then the couple bought some things in the county town, such as cakes, meat, etc.
Qin's family
March is the busy season for spring plowing for ordinary people. Grandpa Qin and his family also worked in the fields. The Qin family had a large population, so the work in the fields was done quickly. However, because the Qin family had a large population and ate a lot of food, the Qin family's life was also tight. But because the Qin family was hardworking, life was not too difficult.
Qin Shouye finished his work and walked to Qin's father: "Dad, I thought about it all night last night. I want to find a job in the town after I finish the work in the fields."
Qin's father thought about it carefully. His son had studied for a year and knew many words. Because his son was not taking the imperial examination, he had studied for a year, so it was almost enough. It would be good for him to find a job in the town. He didn't ask for a good job like a wine shop manager or a bookkeeper, but it was better than working in the fields. After all, working in the fields is really tiring, and as parents, they naturally hope that their children will get better and better.
Qin's father: "You are right, but this matter still needs to be discussed with your grandfather."
Qin Shouye: "Yes, father." He felt very satisfied just thinking about being able to work in the town and earn more money to improve the family's life. Before the eldest brother went to serve in the army, he said that in the future when he was gone, he would be the eldest brother in the family, and he would take care of the younger brothers and sisters on behalf of the eldest brother, and be filial to grandpa, grandma, father and mother.
At the gate of the village, a carriage and a horse slowly came in.
There were many children playing in the village. When they saw the horse and carriage coming, they all crowded to one side and secretly looked over here.
"Wow, is this the big boss of the town?"
"The big boss of the town has money. Let's go quickly. If the big boss asks us for directions, he will definitely give us food."
"Let's go, let's go."
"I'm not going."
"I'm not going either. I'm scared."
Some were timid and some were brave. The brave children ran over and ran to Qin Fang's horse, but they didn't run too close for fear of being stepped on by the horse.
"Hey, which family are you going to? Do you need a guide?" The boy who asked the question was about eight or nine years old and looked very smart.
Qin Fang looked at him: "No, I know the way."
"Oh." The little boy was a little disappointed.
The other children also sighed in disappointment. They originally thought that a big boss had come and would reward them with some candy. Now it seems that there is no hope.
"Ershan, what are you doing?" Two boys and a girl came down the hillside, all three of them carrying backpacks.
Ershan was the little boy who was talking to Qin Fang. When he heard someone calling him, he turned around and said, "Shoucheng, Niudan, come and see, the big boss of the town is here."
Qin Shoucheng brought Niu Dan and Si Ya over. Qin Shoucheng is twelve years old, Niu Dan is ten years old, and Si Ya is nine years old. On weekdays, the Qin family worked in the fields. When they were busy, the children would cut grass for pigs and feed chickens.
Qin Shoucheng: "I'm going home to feed the pigs."
Niu Dan said loudly: "We have to feed the old hens for eggs. My grandma said that if the old hens are fat, we can eat big eggs."
Ershan: "Okay then."
When Qin Fang heard Ershan calling Shoucheng and Niu Dan, he turned his attention to Qin Shoucheng's children. The year he went to serve in the army, Shoucheng was only seven years old and Niu Dan was only four years old. In the blink of an eye, the little boy at that time became a young boy and a big boy. The children have grown up, but they are still thin. Thinking of the situation at home, for a moment, Qin Fang felt very sorry for them. Seeing Qin Shoucheng taking his younger brother and sister home, Qin Fang called out, "Shoucheng, Niu Dan."
Qin Shoucheng heard the town's big man called him, and he stared curiously. The more he looked, the more he felt that this big man riding a horse was familiar, but Qin Shoucheng didn't know where he had seen him. Although Qin Fang was seven years old when he went to serve in the army, Qin Fang five years ago was not as tall as he is now. The height difference was much greater, and his body was not as strong as it is now, so Qin Shoucheng couldn't remember for a moment that this was his eldest brother.
Niu Dan didn't know even more. When his eldest brother left, he was only five years old, and there were only a limited number of people he could remember. However, Niu Dan was very brave. When he heard the town's big boss calling him, he asked happily, "Big boss, you know me, how do you know my name?"
Yang Haiyan also heard the voice, especially when she heard Niu Dan calling Qin Fang "big boss", she couldn't help laughing. She got out of the carriage and asked Qin Fang, "Is this Niu Dan from my second uncle's family?" Although she had never met the Qin family, Qin Fang had told her about everyone.
Qin Fang nodded, and he got off the horse: "Shoucheng, Niu Dan, I'm the big brother, don't you recognize me?"
Niu Dan blinked, not understanding how the town's big boss became the big brother. But when Qin Shoucheng heard Qin Fang say this, he hurried over. He stared at Qin Fang carefully for a while, then grinned and shouted: "Brother...are you really the eldest brother?"
Qin Fang touched his head: "Shoucheng, you have grown taller and older, and you can help your younger brother with housework."
Hearing his eldest brother praising himself, Qin Shoucheng smiled honestly, and he grabbed his clothes a little embarrassedly. He remembered that before his eldest brother went to serve in the army, he would fish and pick wild fruits for them to eat.
Niu Dan looked up at Qin Fang curiously: "Brother, are you really the eldest brother?" He also knew the eldest brother, and his family often mentioned him, but he had no impression. Now seeing Qin Fang, he felt that his eldest brother was more stylish than the eldest master in the town.
Qin Fang smiled: "Yes, I am the big brother."
Niu Dan looked at the horse again and asked curiously: "Big brother, is this your horse? Can I ride it?"
Qin Fang picked up Niu Dan and said: "Sit well."
Niu Dan shouted when Qin Fang picked him up, and after sitting on the horse, he danced with joy.
Qin Shoucheng looked at Niu Dan with some envy: "Big brother, I want to sit too."
Qin Fang simply picked him up, and then he looked at the little girl next to him. He hesitated and asked: "Si Ya?"
