Qin Ban

"How long will it take to reach Xiushui?" Qin Ban asked after putting down his chopsticks.

They didn't choose to eat with the old man or the old woman, not because Qin Ban disliked it, but even if the Qin family's strict rules came out, Haoqing and the others would not sit at the same table to eat with Qin Ban, The two old men had never seen such a battle. If they were really allowed to sit, and then a group of people stood around to serve them, even if they were not the ones serving them, they probably would not be happy.So Qin Cai took out all Qin Ban's food and brought it to Qin Ban's room to eat.Let Haoqing and the others sit outside at the same table with the old man and the others, while he waits in front of Qin Ban.

It's not that Qin Ban has never asked Qin Cai to eat with him, but Qin Cai has said it before, being stubborn.In addition, there are some things, he is the kind that is engraved in his bones, so he always disagrees.At this moment, he was planning to tear apart Qin Ban's chicken legs, when he heard Qin Ban's question, he replied naturally: "I asked Commander Wang just now, and he said that the journey would take about two days. to get there."

Before Qin Ban asked about the condition of the wounded, in fact, except for the two seriously injured, the others were not in the way, they were just skin trauma.Even with Li's illness, he was prescribed medicine.At that time, let the two seriously injured continue to take the carriage, and they will be able to go on the road normally tomorrow, so there is no need to stop.Not being urged does not mean that they can take a leisurely tour of the mountains and rivers all the way before leaving, especially Qin Ban is still full of longing for Xiushui at the moment, thinking about how to be a good parent officer, and is full of motivation.

After eating, Qin Ban planned to go for a walk so as to digest the food.Naturally, they greeted Qin Cai together. The two of them walked out the door. After walking a few steps, they saw Commander Wang with a cold face surrounded by a group of people still unable to move. It was a funny.Qin Ban didn't want to laugh out loud, so he leaned on Qin Cai's shoulder, panting in a low voice, and said with a smile, "Fat Cai, don't you think the current Commander Wang is very cute?"

Commander Wang had noticed the arrival of Qin Ban and Qin Cai a long time ago, but he couldn't move, so he was a little anxious.Seeing Qin Ban seeming to hold back a smile, his face turned blue.Considering that he has been born for so many years, his martial arts practice can be regarded as a small accomplishment. Originally, when dealing with these children, he could throw them out with one hand without reaction time.But he couldn't do this. These children were all from the village. It was the first time they met a big man, and they were very curious.Although the elders in the family have said that they should respect the guests and not disturb them at will, but what do they know, when the family members are not paying attention, they will have fun and run out. They are too high-end like Qin Ban and they can't get close to them. Looking at so many people inside , Commander Wang feels the most imposing, that child doesn't have the dream of a general?So they all gathered around and asked questions, it had been a long time.Commander Wang felt that he was impatient, but he didn't want to make any big moves. If these children were hurt, he really didn't know what to do.

Qin Ban obviously didn't intend to come forward to rescue him, he was just watching a show at the moment, but how could these children not notice people like Qin Ban.Everyone has a love of beauty, and children are no exception, a large group of children ran towards Qin Ban.One is because they have surrounded Commander Wang for a long time, and they have asked a lot of questions. Besides, this big man is majestic, but he is a bit fierce, so they dare not be too presumptuous.This Qin Ban is different, this big brother looks very gentle.Fortunately, when they rushed over, they all realized the gap between Qin Ban and themselves. They felt that they could not touch their dirty clothes or hands to this fairy-like big brother, and stood obediently away from Qin Ban. It's half an arm's length away.

When Qin Cai saw these children, he panicked and wanted to call them away, but Qin Ban waved his hand and said, "Fat Cai, go and help me move a stool, and get some pastries to eat, and more." The children in the village are all gray-headed and dirt-faced, and their skin is not as delicate and fair as those little boys and girls, but their eyes are all bright, and they don't push anything, so Qin Ban thinks it's okay to play with them .The curious eyes of these children made him feel very cute and precious.

"Young master!" Qin Cai yelled in disapproval, but after receiving Qin Ban's eyes, he looked at the children again to make sure that there should be no problem, so he let Commander Wang, who had already walked over, take a good look at them. Run back to get things by yourself.

The sky was getting late, and I could see the sky with red clouds starting to turn gray. Even the children in the village should go home, but these children still looked at Qin Ban reluctantly, and wanted to pull his clothes but I dare not pull it.It wasn't until the first elder came to shout that they were gradually taken away.

"Master, look at your clothes!" Qin Cai said angrily.But this annoyance can't be because Qin Ban's clothes are dirty, it's just that he simply thinks that his young master is too good-tempered. After he brought the stool and snacks, he saw his young master was telling the children in the village what they had never seen before. , which is interesting for them.After seeing him move the stool, he took the children to walk under the tree not far from the village, found a clean stone, put all the snacks on it, and sat on the stool for them. tell a story.The children sat down in a row, listening to Kong Ru letting pears they had never heard before, and Sima Guang smashing the vat. They felt that they had many, many shortcomings. After returning home, they must be more kind to their brothers. Be sure to pay more attention to blah blah blah.

When the night was getting dark, they still refused to disperse.At this time, with Qin Ban's permission and encouragement, these children ate some of the dim sum, and brought the excess back to them.It's not much, only one or two yuan per person, but for these children, it's a delicacy that they can't eat even during the Chinese New Year.I have never seen such delicious and beautiful snacks. Most of the children who brought them back wanted to let the family members eat such delicious snacks.

Qin Ban's kettle was refilled several times by Qin Cai, but it was getting colder, so Chunqiu brought warm water just in time.

"Young master, me, can I come and listen to your story tomorrow?" When the children were almost gone, the last child was left, hugging the pastry in his arms tightly, and then looked at Qin timidly. so-so.

Qin Ban had an impression of this child. Although this child didn't speak much, he was the prettiest, but also the darkest.Other children were sensible enough to take the pastries home, but most of them didn't restrain themselves and ate a bite or two by themselves.Because there are not many pastries and there are many children, each child plus their food is divided into three pieces. Many of them choose to eat one piece for themselves and take the remaining two pieces home.Only this child, he picked up the pastry and smelled it several times, until he saw that everyone was eating deliciously, he carefully broke off a small piece, stuffed it into his mouth, and then showed a satisfied smile.Never touch the two pieces of pastry left in my arms again.From Qin Ban's point of view, he might not be able to taste the taste of this pastry even from that small grain.

"Well... I'm leaving tomorrow." Qin Ban knew that this child wanted to see him again and listen to his stories, but he had no choice but to tell him this fact.

The young man lowered his head in disappointment, clutching the corner of his clothes tightly with his small hands, and then seemed to muster up his courage, and said in a voice that he thought was loud: "Young master, you are the most, the best I have ever seen. Look, you're okay." That's right, how could someone like Young Master stay in such a dilapidated place?It's because he thought too much, but after such a short time together, he still likes the young master very much.

"What's your name?" Qin Ban listened to the child's words, the corners of his mouth became more gentle, then he stretched out his hand, touched the child who had only reached his waist, and asked.

"I, I don't know. Grandma always calls me a dog." The child said his name a little shyly, then lowered his head, not daring to look at Qin Ban, but felt a gentle pain on his head. strength.

"I don't know?" Qin Ban didn't expect the child to say that, so he felt a little puzzled, and then asked.

The child didn't know why, so he didn't have any precautions against Qin Ban, and then said a little shyly: "Well, my grandma picked me up from the river, and grandma raised me up, saying that she was a dog so that she could support her as a woman." People don’t dare to name me.” The cakes he left before were just for grandma to eat.

Qin Ban knew that this child was different from a long time ago, but he didn't expect it to be like this. After thinking about it carefully, he smiled and said to him: "Why don't you call me Zhang Rin from now on? This is Zhangjiacun. You Naturally, the surname is Zhang, so Ling took the meaning of awe-inspiring ambition, and I hope you will be successful in the future, how about it?"

"Zhang Rin?"

"Well, I told you to write." Then he found a branch, and then seriously taught the child to write on the ground. After seeing the child write it more than a dozen times, and probably remembered it, he asked: "Do you remember?" ?”

The child's eyes were bright, and he nodded excitedly, and said, "Remember, my name is Zhang Lin, which means awe-inspiring." Probably, this was the happiest day he had remembered since he was born.Grandma is sick at home, and he is responsible for everything at home. The eight-year-old child has to bear the heavy burden of the family. Grandma’s medicine expenses have already made him feel out of breath. Originally, he was just doing the same as usual today. They also wanted to go home after finishing their errands, but for some reason, they were attracted by Qin Ban who was sitting there, and then strangely became lazy, sat down extravagantly, and listened to what Qin Ban said about him. It's an allusion that I've never heard of.

"That son, I, I will go back first."

"Yeah." Before the child left, Qin Ban stuffed him with a purse, which contained the scraps of silver that he usually put on his body to buy snacks, not much, just about 40 taels, look at this child The clothes are more shabby than ordinary children in the village. When I taught him to write just now, his hands were rough, and it seemed that he was used to the job.He also thought that there was only one grandma in his family, and it must be difficult, so he untied the purse and gave it to him.Of course the child was evasive, but Qin Ban said: "There's nothing in it, this purse is just a decoration, you keep it as a souvenir."

What he didn't know was that the child really listened to him and kept it for a few years without even thinking about opening the purse.Although it is very different from an empty purse, Zhang Rin has never seen any spare money since he was a child, so how does he know what money feels like?I just thought it was probably pretending to make the money bag bulge and look good.It wasn't until more than a month later that grandma's condition worsened, and the money he had saved through hard work could no longer afford grandma's medicines. He cried with his purse in his arms, feeling that it was the last warmth. The thing fell out. Seeing it, Zhang Rin was shocked. He only saw others take it out when he was buying medicine for grandma.This is silver.Holding the silver in trembling hands, he finally cried out.
