Chapter 270: came back

Chapter 270 is back

In the canteen, there are many tables and stools lined up.

The children on duty inside were busy setting up today’s breakfast on each table.

Children who entered the cafeteria found their own seats, sat upright, and remained quiet without speaking.

After everyone was seated, an old soldier shouted, "Let's eat."

The canteen immediately resounded with the sound of slurping soup, the clinking of bowls and chopsticks, and the sound of hard chewing and swallowing...

As we were eating, maybe the people sitting at the same table grabbed more food, and someone said in a low voice, "Leave this for me..."

Before he finished speaking, the old soldier shouted, "You are not allowed to talk while eating. Don't you know the rules? If anyone makes any noise again, get out of here!"

The sound of chewing in the canteen was so frightened that the sound was muted.

Of all the children in the cafeteria, only Wei Rong and Fu Qian occupied a table. Their meals were two identical portions, unlike other children, who had four people sitting at a table and eating the same meal together.

The food-sharing system in the Han Dynasty was only for those families who had the conditions.

We should not be polite to common people. Children of slaves and others in Guizhou are good if they have something to eat. What etiquette is required?

Even if etiquette is required, it is the etiquette formulated by Feng Tubao himself.

The aroma of the food in the canteen spread out to the courtyard, making the children who were still lingering outside the courtyard drool.

“Amu, your child can’t go to school yet?”

Hu Nu, who was passing by the school in a hurry to go to work in the textile workshop, saw some children who were wandering outside the school and refused to leave, and she couldn't help but ask a question.

“Not now, but soon.”

Amu looked a little ashamed, "Before you left, I was not very skilled in weaving and could not meet the requirements for children to enter the school. But I should be able to do so now. When the next batch of children are admitted to the school, I think my son can go in."

"It would be great if our men were still here. I heard that there are a few children who can go to school directly because their fathers followed the adults outside."

Speaking of this, several people's faces showed a little yearning, and then a little sadness.

“Most of the women in our tribe don’t have men. Last year, they were all killed by bandits from the north.”

“Have you heard? That Mei Sizi, someone seems to be interested in her.”

“My name is Deng Si, not Mei Sizi.”

"That's her good fortune. She was able to take a Han name, and she was the first to register. Now a Han man has taken a fancy to her. She's gotten through this. It would be great if some Han family members also take a fancy to me. "

Several women were chatting together, even eating meat and vegetables.

The sadness just now was quickly forgotten.

Hu men tend to be short-lived, and Hu women have long been accustomed to this kind of life.

At this moment, I saw a group of people coming towards me, walking in a hurry. The biggest figures in Nanxiang County today, County Magistrate Li, County Lieutenant Huang, and Mrs. Mei, were all among that group of people.

This frightened the beauties so much that they quickly retreated to pass by with their heads lowered, not daring to raise their heads.

Li Qiu and others passed by with a gust of wind, and no one paid any attention to the few bearded girls standing on the roadside.

“Is there something wrong?”

After Li Qiu and his party had gone far away, someone whispered.

“Bah! What can happen if you are doing well?”

Someone retorted on the spot, "Are you eating sheep dung and eggs in your mouth? What are you talking about?"

It’s only been a few good days, but you can’t live in peace?

The person being scolded knew that he had also said something wrong, so he slapped himself lightly and said, "Wrong, wrong, wrong."

Li Qiu and his party arrived at the intersection. Before waiting long, they saw a team appearing in the distance, slowly walking towards this side.

There was another person riding a fast horse at the front of the team, approaching quickly.

“Hahaha, I hope you’re all right?”

“I haven’t seen Yiwen for many days, but my riding skills are really improving day by day.”

Li Qiu felt the powerful pressure of the war horse, held his hands in his hands without changing his expression, and said calmly.

“That’s right, after all, I am leading my soldiers deep into the land of good Wei thieves!”

Zhao Guang said proudly and got off his horse.

At the beginning, Li Yi recommended Li Qiu to be the magistrate of Nanxiang County. Zhao Guang and Wang Xun also met before going to Yanganguan.

“This article has fulfilled my purpose, is it still refreshing?”

Li Qiu asked with a little envy in his eyes.

This is the time for a man to make great achievements.

This Zhao Erlang has been promoted by his elder brother. Now he is worthy of being called a young talent.

“Refreshing, naturally refreshing.”

Zhao Guang laughed again and patted the horse, "Nobuhiro doesn't need to envy me so much. My brother went to Juxian this time and got a dozen good horses. He said he would come back and share them with everyone."

“You’ve healed your scar and forgot about the pain, right? Believe it or not, I’ll slap you again? Don’t show off in front of Nobuhou again!”

Feng Yong finally arrived at this time, and when he saw Zhao Guangzheng talking proudly about what he had done in Yinping, he immediately cursed.

After hearing what Feng Yong said, Zhao Guang shrank his neck and turned his head aggrievedly, "Brother, don't mention this kind of thing in front of everyone, right?"

Guan Ji and Wang Xun, who knew the root of the matter, both smiled knowingly.

“I’ve met my brother.”

“My brothers, why should I be so polite?”

Feng Yong got off his horse, supported Li Qiu, and asked, "Is Xinhou okay?"

“Thank you for your concern, brother, stay well.”

“How is Nanxiang?”

“Brother, everything is fine.”

“That’s good, that’s good, thank you for your hard work and trust.”

“Why bother to do things that are part of the job?”

After Li Qiu greeted everyone, he turned sideways and introduced Huang Chong to everyone, "Brother, this is the newly appointed county captain of Nanxiang County, Huang Yizhi."

“Chong has met Feng Langjun and all the other gentlemen.”

Huang Chong saluted quickly.

“Huang County Lieutenant doesn’t look older than me, right?”

Feng Yong helped Huang Chong up, looked at it carefully, and asked with a smile.

“Back to Feng Langjun, Chong is fifteen and a half years old this year.”

"Well, it seems that Huang Xianwei is the youngest here," Feng Yong said, and nodded to Zhao Guang, "You will no longer be the youngest from now on, so don't bully others."

Everyone laughed when they heard this.

After briefly reminiscing about old times, everyone walked towards the textile workshop with Feng Yong in their arms.

“The two people in the sixth room of the Li family haven’t left yet?”

Inadvertently, Feng Yong saw a graceful woman standing on the edge of the field over there, looking this way.

When she saw Feng Yong looking over, he squatted down slightly and blessed him, which was regarded as a courtesy.

Although it is just such a simple movement, it can convey the charm of light clouds covering the moon.

“Not yet. I came here two days ago to ask when my brother would be back, and I didn’t know if I had anything to do with him.”

Li Qiu smiled and said.
