struggle in ancient times

Arriving at the familiar city gate, Liao Tingyu suddenly burst into tears.

"We have arrived!"

Huang Zilan popped his head excitedly, "It's really back. Xiaoqiu, hurry over."

Liao Tingyu was in a hurry, but the ox cart was still walking slowly.

Not understanding his feelings at all, Liao Tingyu was so angry that he came out and threw a blade of grass at it.

Mrs. Deng is brewing new wine and preparing to drink it when her son comes back.

The wine brewed by Deng's family is unique in the village. Liao Tingyu likes to drink it very much. It is made from flowers and has a fragrance of flowers.

It's a pity that there is no stamina. Liao Ming doesn't like to drink and always buys wine outside.

In the past, Deng thought that no one in his family liked to drink, so he didn't make it.

But Liao Tingyu drank a few times after seeing it by accident, and he missed it.

After all, I can't finish drinking alone. The previous stock has been stored in my hometown for decades. If I opened it, it would probably be spirits.

Now Mrs. Deng has picked up this craft.

Now the whole family basically lives in the house that Liao Tingyu arranged for him before.

So Liao Tingyu directed Xiaoqiu to rush home.

Mrs. Deng just happened to be busy appraising the guests in the shop.

The first time I saw Liao Tingyu, he looked at his son on the bullock cart in surprise, and shouted: "Son, you are back, come in quickly. Look at this busy person who has lost a lot of weight. You have worked hard on the road. I will let you My sister-in-law will make you some delicious food to nourish your body."

He turned his head and announced the good news loudly into the room: "Boss, your second brother is back, come out quickly and help me weigh him."

Liao Shi hurriedly put down what he was doing and ran out of the house, Wen Xiuer followed behind, and Liao Shi took over the work in Deng's hands.

The second brother of Tiandadi is the biggest.

"Aniang, you can take your second brother in first, I'm here, hurry up and help my daughter-in-law." Liao Shi said empathetically.

Deng took Liao Tingyu's hand and walked inside.

Hush and ask warmly vigorously, the two people behind became the foil.

Liao Ming also heard Deng's yelling, and hurried over.

"I've finally come back after being away for so long. Where's your ox cart?" Liao Ming looked left and right but didn't see the ox cart.

"You didn't come back on foot, did you? Did you sell the ox cart? Or what happened to the ox?"

"Father, where do you want to go? I'm not that good. The bullock cart was parked outside, and I sold a cow and modified it, so I can't get in. I'll come to see you as soon as I come back. These days I want to die me."

"I can play tricks and send back a few letters after walking for so long. Do you know how worried my father and mother are about you? One or two have no strength in their hands, and I can't sleep every night." Deng said.

"Aniang, thank you for caring about me so much. Don't you think I'm smart? The guard I hired for Xiaoqiu used to be Orion, and he escorted me all the way."

"That's it! Xiaoqiu, you have worked hard on this journey." Deng thanked.

Xiaoqiu was flattered and waved his hands again and again: "I didn't do anything, the young master and the others took care of me."

It was only then that Mrs. Deng realized that the clothes on her daughter-in-law were different. These two were weird.

Seeing that Mrs. Deng was in a good mood, Liao Tingyu quickly expressed his credit:

"Aniang, I miss you every time I go, so I write you a letter every time I go, and I buy you some local specialties every time I go to a new place."

"It's also a fact, but why didn't I see the special products there?" Deng looked at Liao Tingyu with nothing in his hands.

"There are too many things. I asked the Escort to deliver them. I guess they haven't arrived yet, but they will be here soon. Let's wait a few more days."

"How many things did you buy? You still need escorts. Can't you fit in your bullock cart?" When Deng Shi heard that escorts were being used, she stared fixedly at the prodigal son with those eyes.

"There are several carts of things, many of them are for you, and some are for the master and the principal, and some are for friends. After all, it is rare to take a long trip, so you have to bring some back, and it is not easy to use the Escort Bureau. No matter how expensive it is, it's only a dozen or so taels of silver, and they're on their way." Liao Tingyu explained.

When Mrs. Deng heard that there were more than ten taels of silver and looked at his son, she felt that he didn't seem to be his own son, and she was not such a prodigal son.

The point is, why hire another guard if you can hire a dart team!

Deng expressed his incomprehension.

In fact, this is also related to the couple's desire to live a happy life.

Many of the specialties they bought were not expensive in the local area, but they became scarce after running for tens of kilometers, so Liao Tingyu also inspected the local environment and sent some to his father-in-law to see if he could do business.

Because Liao Tingyu came back from a long trip, Mrs. Deng went to the market again to buy some delicious food.

On the table, I kept chanting, "If I lose weight and get darker, I should actually be stronger."

People are not as fragile as before.

But no matter what it looks like, in the eyes of a mother, even if she is fat, she will say that being thin is suffering.

Liao Tingyu didn't refute, Deng continued to add meat and vegetables to his bowl, for fear that he would eat less because of politeness, Liao Tingyu didn't add any vegetables himself during this meal, and he was enjoying the emperor's level of treatment throughout the meal.

Finally passed this difficult meal time, he rubbed his stuffed stomach, his parents missed him, so Huang Zilan stayed at home to sleep all night.

When enjoying the cool air at night, he told Mrs. Deng what he saw on the people he met during his travels.

"We are in this Valley of Hundred Flowers, where there are flowers everywhere, and in the mountains and forests, when we went there, it was early in the morning when the mist was hazy, and there were butterflies and bees flying around, and the fragrance was everywhere, it was simply beautiful. Fairyland."

"You can see that Zilan was standing here at that time, and he was surrounded by flowers. The ones that bloom are called different poses. If A Niang goes there, she will definitely like it."

"Also here, we were by the lake, there were white egrets flying there, we sat in the attic and ate fish and watched the turtle climb the tower, one turtle was very stupid, it moved, then it fell, and then All the turtles fell down..."

Huang Zilan listened to the strange animals that Liao Tingyu described, and watched him take out the painting to point out the country, it was obviously an ordinary journey, but he insisted on talking about ups and downs.

"I heard that your study tour is really going well, and I don't know when I can go and see it with my own eyes." Liao Shi said longingly.

"I will take you with me when I go to the exam next time. If my father, mother, elder brother and sister-in-law are willing to go with us, we will go as a family, and we will never be separated again. Every time I go to a new place, I will be with you." Miss you." Liao Tingyu promised,

"When I'm away alone, I often miss you. I always miss my family when I'm not around. What are you doing after we're gone!"

"Father walks every day and walks by the gate of the city. Auntie just brews wine and buys vegetables. Me? I've been busy with business. Business has been very good recently, especially the cold noodles." Liao Shi said foolishly.

Deng directly gave him a critical blow.

The family chatted very late, Liao Tingyu couldn't take it anymore, went back to the room and hugged the Wenxiang nephrite beside him, feeling a little groggy.

Xiaoqiu came to say goodbye the next day, and now he wants to go home as soon as possible to see his parents and tell him about his decision.

The news of Liao Tingyu's return quickly spread throughout the town.

Yang Shu and Zhang Yi came to visit together like Siamese twins.

I don't know why Liao Tingyu always feels a little strange when he sees these two people.

Especially when they are together, probably because they are so inseparable.

After a few days, the special products escorted by the bodyguard team also arrived today.

"Mr. Liao, take a look to see if this is the case." A strong man said.

Liao Tingyu looked at it and thought it was the same: "Thank you very much, that's all. You help me send these things to me, and I will pick up the money for you."

Huang Zilan watched several people move in several boxes, and Liao Tingyu counted them in front.

The things in the box are very delicate, there is no perishable food, some cloth dyes, wooden toys, even some farming tools, some seeds and so on.

"What are you doing with these things?" Huang Zilan asked strangely, why didn't he find that he bought so many things after following him all the way!

Huang Zilan looked at the farm equipment with some confusion, so he said, "It's no different from ours."

"I saw this when I was begging for water in a village. You are sleeping! You see that there is an extra piece of wood here, and I don't know how it was inlaid, but it is extremely labor-saving." Liao Tingyu explained himself. Farm tools are different.

"Although our family says that we don't need it, we can give it to the village chief and let them do the same, and then give it to other people. After all, it can save a little effort during the busy farming season, and it will be much more convenient. Everyone won't do it like that. Tired."

"And this dye, you see, this is the cloth he dyed, although its color is almost the same as ours, but if you look carefully, the dye is dyed, it will reflect light in the sun. If it is used on clothes If it’s good, it can also be the finishing touch, I remember my father-in-law also has a workshop dedicated to dyeing cloth, and I bought this ingredient.” Liao Tingyu explained to the family on the side.

"Also, don't look at this thing, it's small, but it's extremely fun. It's specially made for rice cakes. According to the old master, it's for enlightening my little doll. I bought the blueprint and waited. When our doll comes, give him a few too." Liao Tingyu explained to them one by one by ordering these bits and pieces.

Looking at Huang Zilan when he said the last sentence, Huang Zilan was a little shy. He didn't know why he was saying this in public.

Liao Shi curiously held the rice cake toy, "This brat is really lucky, I'm just a bamboo dragonfly and I'm still a bad one."

"It was given to me by my uncle. Don't play with it when you are so old." Liao Tingyu snatched the toy that Liao Shi couldn't put it down.

It breaks after a few plays like him.

For Liao Shi, some delicious food, for Deng Shi, cloth, and for Liao Ming, a beautiful bong.

This thing is the single most expensive of them all.
