Chapter 4 Farewell
Time flies, and one day and one night is just a day and one night, and one lunch break is almost just a blink.
The station comes and goes, and there are new places to settle down, and there are also new trips.
The young Ajiu and his group had two more people and four horses, and it became even more noisy to assemble outside the post station.
The two girls also wore hats and wrapped scarves, wore thick cotton coats, and carried small bags, which were round and rolling like a ball.
They bid farewell to the postmaster again.
The Yicheng waved his hand: "Okay, okay, go quickly, don't worry, I will take good care of your mother."
The two girls shed tears and looked into the station. Because of physical reasons, the woman could not send it out, and they were slow to move.
This time, the mother and daughter are afraid there will be no time to meet again.
Although several postmen were on the horse, they couldn't bear to urge them.
"Hey." Only Ajiu could bear the urge. His hat and scarf covered his face, revealing a pair of phoenix eyes, and his eyebrows were covered with coldness, "Can you leave? Otherwise, you should stay with your mother."
This boy has a very perverse temper and can turn against him if he says he can turn against him. The Yicheng hurriedly pushed the two girls to the horse: "Go quickly, go quickly, go early, find your father early, and let him come back soon to see your mother."
The two girls got on the horse without hesitation and were very steady, which shows that they really know how to ride horses.
Ajiu withdrew his gaze and urged the horse: "Go!" He walked forward first.
The other postmen were also urging the horses, and the two girls rushed to the top and drove away in the blink of an eye.
The official secretary stood outside the door and looked at him with emotion.
"Sir, I have done another good deed." A postman stepped forward to compliment.
Is it a good deed? Yicheng patted his stomach, his chubby belly, and his belt couldn't be tied. There were two full wallets hanging on the belt. This is the reward for being a good person.
"Good man." The woman thanked me in bed with a sensation, "You accept this money to do good deeds. Otherwise, I will die and my two children will lose their lives. What's the use of keeping this money? Why don't you give it up and use it to buy a way out for my two children. As long as you send them to their father, you can survive even if you don't have money."
He collected money and did nothing, so he found a way out for these two children. When the woman died, he would bury her and not let her corpse go wild. Well, after that, he was indeed a good man.
"Go to do your work." Yicheng said with a smile, patted his stomach and turned around and walked in.
But early the next morning, the door of the Yicheng was snapped again.
"What's wrong? Is that Yang family woman dead?" Yicheng asked in surprise.
The doctor invited said that the woman in the Yang family would not live long. She had been living in a breath these days. Could it be that the two daughters put down the heavy stone when they saw them off?
"No." said the postman, "The Yang family's wife hired a car and said she wanted to leave."
.....
.....
A donkey cart was parked in the backyard, and the woman from the Yang family was half lying inside wrapped in a torn cotton coat.
"What are you doing?" Yicheng asked in confusion, "The cold world is frozen, and you are so sick again, how can you walk?"
The woman from the Yang family smiled weakly: "Master Xu, I still have a breath. I want to go back to my hometown, and the leaves fall back to my roots. I don't want to wander in the wilderness of a foreign land."
In this way, the Yicheng sighed: "Madam Yang, you raise it here, maybe you still have the chance to meet your men and children."
I was struggling with the journey, but I was afraid I would die immediately.
The woman in the Yang family shook her head, her face sad but also happy: "I will feel at ease if they can meet each other. It will be the same for me to see me in front of my grave in the future."
Since this is the case, the Yicheng no longer persuades him, but if he wants to take the money back and really makes him a good person for nothing, that would not work.
He touched his belt: "Miss Yang, you need to worry about traveling home, then-"
Before he could finish his words, the Yang family's wife waved her hand: "I have troubled Mr. Xu too much. You can't let me spend money. I have left some money to go home. People like me don't need too much money, so it will be a burden to take it."
After saying that, she fell on the bedding weakly, looking a little nervous.
Yes, how could he really give all his wealth? This woman must have given her two daughters some to her and kept some of her own - but he wouldn't really take out the woman's wealth, and it would be okay to collect half of it. He is not the kind of person who eats all the bones and meat without leaving them.
The Yicheng said with a kind expression: "Well, follow your wife's wishes, then I wish you a good journey."
The woman from the Yang family hurriedly lit a quilt with her head to express her gratitude.
"Turn your wife home well, it is also a good deed for you." The official secretary told the coachman with a calm face, "Don't be a miserable person, otherwise I will never forgive you."
The coachman said repeatedly, and the donkey cart drove out of the station with a creaking sound and walked along the road.
The Yicheng stood outside the post station again and watched, touching his stomach, and in the blink of an eye, he saw the mother and daughter away one after another. He couldn't even remember how the mother and daughter came from, and it felt like he was dreaming.
He hurriedly touched the money bag in his waist, but fortunately, the money was still there.
Then it's okay, it's not that Da Meng is busy with nothing.
The carriages and horses come and go, the sun rises and sets, and the Beicao Town Post Station repeats its busyness day after day. The post station is not always pitiful, and the post chief is not always a good person. His daily life is mostly sitting indoors, flipping through the account books and checking the balance in and out.
Occasionally, there are great officials passing by, and he doesn’t need to serve in close proximity. He is a well-known official at the post station. He can live in a high-end room when he comes this time, but next time he may only have to live in a Datongpu.
However, when the officials from the local county government came, the postmaster still had to greet him warmly.
It was cloudy today, and the faces were hurting because of the wind. There were charcoal fires in the hall. A group of servants were sitting or standing, cursing that it was too cold and complaining about the bad drinks here.
When he saw the Yicheng coming in, sitting in the middle wearing an official robe, a man in his forties who was throwing his knife on the table, said: "Where is the drink that is not good, it is Lao Xu who hid the good drink."
The officials all pointed at the postmaster and shouted.
It was not surprising that Yicheng was familiar with them, but pointed at one of the men: "Cao Laosi, you don't know where my wine is hidden? Move it away by yourself."
The man who called Cao Laosi was not polite, so he called a few officials and went out in a lively manner.
The official seated next to the man with a knife: "Supervisor Qi, this is a cold day, what big thing is there to work for you to leave the house?"
This Superintendent Qi is not only the Shangguan in charge of the post station, but more importantly, the brother-in-law of the county magistrate. He holds great power in the county and only needs to move his fingers when doing things, and does not have to travel and run around in the bitter and cold weather.
Unless there is something or someone you can't afford to offend.
I haven't heard of any major events in the county lately?
