Chapter 124 Compared to the life-and-death fight, this scene is very healing.
"Thank you Yongcheng Order!"
Zhao Shu collected the inspection pass, took the money and grain, and ordered towards Yongcheng: "There are many troubles. If you have time, Zhao Shu will pay you a visit!"
"Farewell!"
"Walk slowly!"
Watching Zhao Shu leave, Ying Shan couldn't help but sigh with emotion. He knew in his heart that a dragon was coming out of Yongcheng.
Zhao Shu was young, talented, and well versed in the ways of the world. In his opinion, such a person would be able to gain a foothold even if he went to the court in Xianyang.
As the magistrate of Yongcheng, he would naturally not refuse Zhao Shu's goodwill.
.......
Holding the horse and walking on the road, Zhao Shu felt extremely complicated. He was about to see his family, and he felt somewhat timid about being close to home.
At the Western Market, he bought some meat, vegetables and wine, and then Zhao Shu returned home.
An hour later, Zhao Shu arrived at Zhao's house, which was basically populated by members of the Zhao clan and was a small village belonging to Yongcheng.
Looking at the desolate courtyard in front of him, Zhao Shu couldn't help but smile bitterly, tied his horse under the mulberry tree at the door, and walked in.
This is the home in memory.
Unfortunately, there is no one at home now. Zhao Shu placed the money and food on the big stone in the courtyard and walked around the courtyard.
The situation here was almost unchanged from what he remembered.
.......
"Ah, grandma!" Zhao Shu looked at his parents who were hurriedly returning from the fields and smiled: "My son's service is over and he is back."
Zhao De looked at his son in front of him and couldn't help but rub his eyes, suppressing the excitement in his heart: "Son, the Lishan service will last for a year. You won't escape the service, right?"
"Ah Weng!" Seeing the panic on Zhao De's face, he quickly explained, "While I was serving in the army, I was appreciated by the nobles and joined the army."
"Now that the war is over, I have returned, and my service is over."
Zhao Shu didn't dare not explain quickly.
He knew how serious a crime it was to run away from service in Da Qin, and it would even involve his family.
"Son, just come back!" Honghua looked at Zhao Shu, her eyes turned red. As a mother, she was naturally more emotional.
In Da Qin, serving and going on the battlefield would result in death. Looking at Zhao Shu at this moment, Honghua was naturally frightened.
"Grandma, isn't this wonderful!" Zhao Shu hesitated for a moment, then walked into the red flower, stretched out his hand to wipe away his tears: "Grandma, don't cry!"
"My son has achieved military exploits and received a title. Grandma should be happy!"
The three of them talked for a while, and Honghua began to pack the meat and vegetables brought by Zhao Shu and started busy in the kitchen.
At this time, Zhao Shu's brother and sister also came back. They were playing in the fields and came back a little late.
"Brother!"
Looking at the two little ones in front of him, Zhao Shu smiled kindly and took the backpack from the girl.
The basket on his back was full of wild vegetables.
This scene made Zhao Shu feel heartbroken. His sister, Zhao Shu, was only six years old and was already asking for help.
As for his younger brother, Zhao Shu was only three years old.
"Xiao Shu, take Xiao Shu to take a bath!"
Looking at the little one running away, Zhao Shu's eyes fell on the wild vegetables in the basket. He knew in his heart that these wild grasses were eaten not only by humans, but also by chickens, pigs, and dogs.
In this era, there are pigs, but they are not called pigs.
As the saying goes, in a five-acre house with mulberry trees, a person at fifty can wear clothes and silk; if chickens, dolphins, dogs and pigs are kept in their season, a person at seventy can eat meat.
In this era, the standard for a prosperous farmhouse was a house of five acres, with mulberry trees planted in front of the door and chickens, pigs and dogs raised in the backyard.
Putting the backpack in the backyard, Zhao Shu took out the toys he bought from the package and handed them to his younger brother and sister, and the two played in the yard.
There was laughter from time to time.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Shu couldn't help but smile knowingly. Compared to the life and death fight on the battlefield, this scene was very healing.
"Aweng, shall we go to Xianyang?" Zhao Shu withdrew his gaze and looked at Zhao De beside him, and said.
Hearing this, Zhao De's face changed slightly and he was silent for a long time: "Shu, I won't go to Xianyang. It's very good here."
"Xianyang is a place of right and wrong..."
After sitting down on the stone pier, Zhao Shu served Zhao Deman wine, smiled and said: "Ah Weng, my title is no longer changed. When the reward is given after the war, I will definitely be promoted."
"Ah Weng and Grandma have worked hard all their lives, and it's time to enjoy the blessings."
"After all, Yongcheng is no better than Xianyang. Moreover, Xiaoshu and Xiaoshu are getting older, and it's time for them to study and learn to read and enter the school."
"Aweng still doesn't plan to leave here?"
Zhao De was silent for a long time, and he was deeply troubled. He knew that his whole life would be like this.
And Zhao Shu also made military exploits, which can be regarded as changing his destiny, but what about Zhao Shu and Zhao Shu?
Is it still like him making a living in the fields?
When Zhao De's eyes fell on the two people laughing constantly in the courtyard, he hesitated.
Zhao De knew that this was an opportunity.
But he still couldn't make up his mind.
After taking a sip of wine, Zhao De suddenly turned towards Zhao Shu and said: "Shu, our Zhao family is different from others. Xianyang is a place of right and wrong for us!"
Hearing this, Zhao Shu basically understood what Zhao De was worried about, and couldn't help but smile and said: "Aweng, don't worry so much."
"These are not problems, the king already knows."
"My son also knows."
"What's more, we just go to Xianyang to live. With our children here, at least no one will bully us, and we can let Xiao Shu and Xiao Shu have a good life."
........
Having said this, Zhao Shu stopped persuading.
He knew in his heart that Zhao De's worries would not dissipate in a short time, and he did not insist on taking his family away this time.
After all, he himself had not really established a foothold in Xianyang. The reason why he told Zhao De was because he knew that Zhao De must be aware of the family affairs.
On this matter, I am definitely conflicted, and it will take time to digest and think about.
Therefore, this was just a test for him.
Seeing Zhao De deep in thought, Zhao Shu took a sip of wine and changed the subject, saying: "Aweng, regarding the land for the reward, the Yongcheng Order said that it can be within the scope of Yongcheng. Do you think the land there is better?"
After all, Zhao Shu didn't know much better than Zhao De about matters such as fields, and since the Yongcheng Order said that he could choose at will, Zhao Shu would not let go of this opportunity.
Hearing this, Zhao De was slightly startled. He had never heard before that you could choose the land for the reward.
At this moment, he couldn't help but look at Zhao Shu, wanting to get the answer from Zhao Shu's face.
Seeing the seriousness on Zhao Shu's face, Zhao De didn't think much and told Zhao Shu with a smile: "As for the fields, naturally it is best to be close to our original fields."
