Chapter 1499
Chapter 1791 : Hanqi, one hundred and eighty-one full
In Jinyang City, Jiang Fu carried a baggage in his hand. It contained the teacher’s newspaper he had just received. Back at his home in Jinyang, his injuries were not clear, so he still walked. Limped.
During the Battle of Jinyang, the 20th Army suffered heavy casualties, and all the outposts were lost. In the entire Jinyang theater, only some important cities remained unconquered by the Qin army, but only the forefront of the fortress guarded by Jiang Fu. At the end of the war, the big man’s yellow dragon flag was still flying, and there were more than 1,500 people in the camp. In the end, only more than 200 people were left with scars.
Jiang Fu has become a role model for the First Military District in this battle. As long as there is a flag flying in the war zone, it does not mean that these places are completely occupied. Then the First Military District reports to the court. Of course, it has to be much more beautiful, and this kind of miracle of war is not repeated every time. After the war, Jiang Fu was promoted directly from the battalion commander to the division commander.
Of course, this was also because the 20th Army lost too much and a large number of officers died in battle.
Jiang Fu returned to Jinyang City with his remaining soldiers. As a model unit, they naturally received the standard of ordinary treatment, good doctors and good medicinal materials, but even so, among the returning brothers, There are still a few who have not survived and closed their eyes forever.
Even if Jiang Fu was accustomed to seeing life and death, he had beaten and rolled a few times on the edge of the living field many times, but when the brothers closed their eyes, he still cried.
Pushing the door open, a scent of stewed meat immediately floated into his nostrils. “I’m back!” he cried out.
The house immediately became lively. The husband and mother-in-law appeared at the door holding a child. They were all honest local farmers. After Jiang Fu became the battalion commander, they were taken to Jinyang City. The land outside the city was leased to other races, and the two old men helped women and children in the city as battalion leaders. His salary is still enough to feed the family. Besides, the old man is not very old. But in his forties, in Jinyang City, he can earn a lot of money by doing odd jobs.
Jiang Fu’s attitude is not to ask for great wealth, but to ask for the safety of his family. Without his family, he regards his wife’s family as his relatives. Of course, for the son-in-law who is an officer. The father-in-law and mother-in-law are still a little afraid.
“Come back!” Lao Zhangren reached out to take the baggage in Jiang Fu’s hand, with a smile on his face. The deeds of his son-in-law are now known to everyone in Jinyang City. There is already a storyteller Jiang Jiang. Fu’s experience was compiled into a songbook and sung in the teahouse.
The old man is very proud. He doesn’t know how old the division commander is, but he knows that his son-in-law can now command more than 10,000 soldiers. In the old man’s eyes, that is already very remarkable.
Passed the baggage in his hand to the old man, and took the child smoothly. I pinched the child’s red face, and when he first came back, the child didn’t recognize him at all. He cried as soon as he took over, and now he finally recognizes his dad.
“What is the big girl stewing? It’s delicious! I’ll go and see!” Jiang Fu smiled, and walked back to the kitchen. His home in Jinyang is just a small yard. He and his wife occupy a room. , The husband and wife lived in a room, and then a miscellaneous room and a back kitchen.
“Uncle, don’t go, you are a big man, how can you enter the kitchen?” The old man grabbed Jiang Fu’s arm.
Jiang Fu was taken aback. Then he smiled and said, “Father, no big man can enter the kitchen. I think you don’t often go to help your mother?”
“I’m not the same as you, you are a high-ranking official!” The old man’s face was a little ashamed.
“Look at what you said. If you are a big official or not a big official, am I the one with your son-in-law, the big man? No matter how old you are, this won’t change. I’ll go and see.” Jiang Fu smiled and got rid of the old man’s hand, and walked back as soon as he pushed the door.
Looking at the lowered curtain, the expression on the old man’s face was very relieved. To be honest, he was really worried. When Jiang Fu became a high official, would he not look down on his big girl? Several old men who did odd jobs together told him about it half-jokingly and half-seriously. But now it looks like Jiang Fu is still the same Jiang Fu before.
“Come back!” The big girl in the kitchen turned her head and glanced at Jiang Fu who walked in. She was a sloppy woman, not beautiful, just good-looking.
“Come back, we have a meeting with the military department today. When it comes to replenishment of soldiers, our Twentieth Army fought too badly. In the near future, a group of recruits will be recruited. Commander Li promised me that when the recruits arrive, they will fill me up. “Jiang Fu sat down at the door of the stove, put the child on his knees, freed a hand to stuff the firewood in the stove.
“I would rather your subordinates never make up for the missing soldiers, so that you don’t have to go to the battlefield. This time, but it scared me to death, they all said that you must be gone.” Look at him.
Jiang Fu smiled. He knew that this time, the woman must have been terrified. When he returned to Jinyang, the woman he saw was slender and thin, and he saw his first glance. Not a surprise, but just fainted straight out. After raising this for a while, I finally brought back my previous body again, and my woman’s body is indeed strong.
“It is our duty to serve as soldiers and eat food to fight wars. Besides, the world is a big man. If we soldiers do not come to defend, who will defend? Our life is going well, but we can’t tolerate the Qin people to make trouble!” Jiang Fu smiled. “Don’t worry, I can’t die.”
Daya sighed and stopped speaking. She was a woman of traditional duty, and she was accustomed to treating men as her heaven. At most she would just complain.
“Today, it was stewed with mutton soup with medicinal herbs. You can drink more to get better.” After a moment of silence, Da Ya said.
“This has been made up for many days, and I still have to make up!” Jiang Fu said bitterly, “Da Ya, during this time, I’m afraid that I have emptied my family, but I can’t buy medicinal materials anymore. Thieves are expensive. of.”
“There is no shortage of this money at home. We used to have small expenses. Dad did odd jobs in the city. My mother and I can also do some sewing and repair work. You have all your military salary. Besides, you are not promoted. Isn’t it? The military pay will always be higher than it is now, right?” Da Ya looked at Jiang Fu at the door of the stove and smiled: “By the way, I haven’t asked you yet, how much more military pay will be than before when you become a division commander?”
Looking at Da Ya, Jiang Fu’s heart is full of happiness. This woman will always care about the man’s body. The cost of the family is only what she represents. It seems that she has no importance in her heart. of.
“When I was a battalion commander, my monthly salary was twenty taels. Now I am a division commander. It seems to be one hundred taels a month. But I haven’t received it yet and I haven’t asked about it. I can’t take care of this.”
“How much?” The spatula in Da Ya’s hand was frozen in the air, staring at Jiang Fu.
“One hundred taels!” Just as Jiang Fu said, he saw that the spatula in Da Ya’s hand fell and fell into the pot, splashing countless soups and water, so scared that he quickly stretched out his hand to cover it. Baby’s face on the knees.
Oh, with a yell, Da Ya was jumping and jumping in the room, and a lot of the soup splashed on her, “Is it all right?” Jiang Fu stood up, walked to Da Ya, and took her shoulders carefully. Looked at him carefully.
“It’s okay, it’s okay!” Da Ya shook her head vigorously, Jiang Fu burst into laughter with the smile on her face, Da Ya wanted to shut her mouth, but she couldn’t suppress her inner joy anyway.
“One hundred taels! One thousand two hundred taels a year, we are getting rich!” She clapped her hands and raised her voice and laughed: “In the future, the strong and the strong can wear new clothes without waiting for the new year. I can also give Dad bought some good wine!”
“Also, you should add some new clothes and some jewelry!” Jiang Fu smiled.
“I’ll forget it! Just like this, it doesn’t look good in new clothes, and also, how do you work with jewelry!” The big girl shook her head repeatedly.
“You don’t have to work in the future, I can feed you.”
“No way, I won’t do any work, it will suffocate people.” Da Ya shook her head and said: “I’m used to doing it, I can’t take it easy, but I can’t do sewing work in the future, you don’t I know that some old customers in the past don’t give me work anymore, saying they don’t dare to work me anymore, making me angry.”
Jiang Fu couldn’t help laughing as he listened to Da Ya’s complaint.
“Don’t laugh, aren’t the children in the family taken care of by your mother? I can do things. You can’t be a high official, so I’m not allowed to go out. Two days ago, the county guard and your commander-in-chief did not pay back. Announcements are all issued, asking women to work outside the house? How can I be idle at home, I heard that the county madam has come out to work?”
Speaking of this the smile on Jiang Fu’s face couldn’t help but converge. In this battle, Jinyang suffered a great loss, especially the men, so that in the spring, there was labor panic. In cities and villages, there are employment gaps everywhere. The county guards have no choice but to call on women to come out and do what they can. This was an unimaginable thing before, but now it is not unusual for women to come out to work in a big man.
“It’s fine if you are happy! Just don’t be tired.” Jiang Fu nodded.
“I’m in good health. When I was in my hometown, I was still able to raise cattle and plow the fields. I can do a lot of work that the old men can’t do!” Da Ya said with a proud face.
“My big girl is naturally the most capable.” Jiang Fu nodded repeatedly.
Da Ya smiled all over her face, scooped a spoon of soup, blew it for a while, and fed it to Jiang Fu’s mouth, “Come and try it, is it new?”
Drinking a spoonful of soup in his mouth, Jiang Fu felt that his heart was about to melt. This drink was not soup, it was full of happiness!
It’s best to live, reunite, and have relatives. (To be continued.)
