The Big Landlord

In the blink of an eye, it was the day before Zhao Jin left Tangjia Village. At night, Tang Shi got into Zhao Jin's bed again, his face full of displeasure.

Zhao Jin couldn't laugh or cry, rubbed his forehead, "I will write to you often."

Tang Shi was bored under the quilt, and said, "I'm very busy, I have nothing to write back to you."

Zhao Jin stopped talking.

Tang Shi felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, so he poked his head out to look at Zhao Jin, and saw that his face was full of grievances.

"I'm just kidding, don't be sad." Tang Shi couldn't bear it.

Only then did Zhao Jin laugh, "Well, I'm not sad." He was silent for a while, and then said, "You can move to the city after I leave."

The rest of the Tang family had to move to the new house after the autumn harvest, so Tang Shi thought about taking Tang Feng and the others to live in the new house first, so as to adapt to life in the city.

The Tang family is worried, they are just a few children, how can they do without adults to take care of them?But thinking that living in the city is really convenient for Tang Shi, and it is better for the children, so the Tang family decided to let Liu Shi and Tang Yue go to take care of Tang Feng and them first, while Gao Shi and Fang Shi stayed behind. The family takes care of three men.

"Well, I will go to the city with A Niang and the others tomorrow."

"Old Hong lives next door to you, if you need anything, you can find him."

"Then what do you do?" After all, Hong Zhong is Zhao Jin's right-hand man, what should Zhao Jin do if he has no one available when he goes to the capital?

"It's okay, there were still soldiers in the Zhao family back then, so you don't have to worry about me." Zhao Jin said in his heart, feeling that there is nothing scary about the surging capital in the undercurrent.

Tang Shi grabbed his arm, rolled up his sleeve, and pointed to the intertwined scars on his arm, "Then how do you explain these?"

Zhao Jin sighed, "The battles between the previous kings were naturally dangerous. Now that the new emperor is about to ascend the throne, and I am the commander, no one dares to touch me easily."

Tang Shi shook his head, "Do you know what you are in my eyes now?"

Zhao Jin looked at him suspiciously.

"In my eyes, you are a tempting living target now. You have offended so many people. There must be many people secretly wanting your life. Moreover, the emperor is mostly suspicious. You, a powerful commander, might even cause trouble. The emperor's suspicion..."

Zhao Jin was helpless, "Where do you have so many ideas in your little head? You just need to plant flowers and drink tea. You shouldn't think about these things, you know?"

Tang Shi stretched out his hand to touch his scar, "Can you tell me, how did these injuries come about?"

Zhao Jin smiled, "It's over, there's nothing to say, go to sleep." He kissed Tang Shi on the forehead as he spoke.

Tang shi had no choice but to stop asking.

Early the next morning, Hong Zhong brought two maroon horses for Zhao Jin and Zhao Xu.

The Tang family knew that the brothers and sisters of the Zhao family were leaving Tangjia Village today, so they all came to see them off.

Zhao Xu has lived here for a year, and already has feelings, not to mention, she really doesn't want to go back to that cage-like place in Kyoto.

Tang Ya took a few steps forward, came to the red-eyed Zhao Xu, and handed her a cloth bag in her hand, "Sister Zhao, here is a shawl I sewed myself, and I give it to you."

Zhao Xu was very moved. She reached out to take it, squatted down, and touched Tang Ya's face, "Sister Xiaoya, thank you. If I have the opportunity to come to Kyoto in the future, my sister will take you to play."

Tang Ya nodded heavily.

Tang Feng, Tang Song, and Li Shao solemnly saluted Zhao Jin as a disciple. When Zhao Jin helped them up, he saw Tang Shi smiling.

This must have been Tang Xiao's idea.Zhao Jin hugged Tang Shi under the eyes of the Tang family, "Brother Shitou, we are destined to meet again." His breath fell on Tang Shi's ears, and Tang Shi's ears slowly turned red.

"Brother Zhao, be careful on the road." Tang Nian and Tang Ji both said.

Zhao Jin nodded at them, got on the horse with Zhao Xu, said goodbye to them solemnly, and looked at Tang Shi.

Tang Shi said: "Don't look at it, I will save the other half of the money for selling flowers for you, and you can just ask me to get it when you come back when you have time."

Zhao Jin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he just said "Take care" and rode forward, his figure gradually disappeared from the eyes of the Tang family.

The departure of the brothers and sisters of the Zhao family did not bring any changes to Tangjia Village. On the contrary, the news that the Tang family had bought a house in the county town spread out somehow, causing waves in Tangjia Village.

In the eyes of these native country people, only the rich can afford to live in the county town. If the Tang family really bought a big house in the county town, then maybe the Tang family really made a fortune in silence!

Every time Tang Qing and his two sons went to work in the field, some people would come to make indirect remarks to confirm the authenticity of the news, and some would say something sour, saying that since they could afford a big house, why would they come to work in the field? live?It took up good land for no reason.

Tang Qing and the others just listened to these words, and didn't care about them in their hearts, but they didn't know that they got so much money because they climbed a high branch of the Zhao family.

You can say anything, but no matter what, other people in Tangjia Village dare not say in front of the Tang family that Tang Qing has always been honest and honest. Anyway, the children have moved to the county, and the big men don't care about it. superior.

Ever since Tang Shi moved to the county town, Chen Hong often came to play with Tang Shi, but every time he couldn't play, because Wei Cong would also come with him to look for Tang Shi, and Wei Cong only reads and writes. Tang Shi happened to want to learn from Wei Cong's learning spirit, so he often ignored his little nephew.

Chen Hong quit, obviously Tang Shi should be the best with him, but now Wei Cong snatched him away, he was very unhappy.

Tang Shi communicated with Wei Cong, and gradually felt that this young man was truly extraordinary. He was able to focus on and love one thing so much, and it was not for fame or fortune, but only for the pursuit of a spiritual yearning. There were very few people who could do it. , Tang Shi deeply admired it.

But in Wei Cong's eyes, it was a blessing for him to know Tang shi.He has been outstanding in reading since he was a child, and there are basically no students of the same age who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him. The adults have a lot of things to do, and he has no one to communicate with. He often feels that it is difficult to find a bosom friend, but now Tang Shi has appeared.Tang shi had read all the books he had read, and Tang shi had read the books he hadn't read, and he found that many of Tang shi's ideas coincided with his own, which made him extremely excited.

Another more important reason for Wei Cong to immerse himself in his book sea all day is that he found that many of his ideas are different from those of his wife, grandfather and father, and those in books.But he never dared to speak out, he knew that once he put forward his point of view, he would be scolded by them.

But Tang shi was the same age as him after all, so it had nothing to do with him talking, and he didn't intend Tang shi to agree with his thoughts, but to his surprise, Tang shi could understand himself and be able to deal with some of his unformed things. Expounding his thoughts, he simply spoke his heart!

Wei Cong found such a schoolmate, and really felt that this was a great joy in life, so he naturally ran to Tang Shi's place whenever he had time.

Moreover, it was very quiet here in Tang Dynasty. In Tang Dynasty, he would plant all kinds of flowers in the yard. Wei Cong sometimes saw the cute flowers and expressed his poetic feelings, which was very pleasant.

Tang Shi stayed with Wei Cong for a long time, and his state of mind gradually became peaceful. Yuan Yong saw this from his article, and praised Tang Shi.

Tang shi worked so hard, and as a little friend, Chen Hong didn't want to be looked down upon by Tang shi, so he secretly became angry. Chen Jiangui and others saw it in their eyes, and they were very relieved.

Such days passed quickly, and it was the beginning of July in a blink of an eye.

On this day, Tang Shi was teaching Tang Feng and others in the courtyard with Wei Cong, when Hong Zhong came to look for him.

Wei Cong knew Hong Zhong, but he only thought that Hong Zhong was Tang Shi's neighbor. When he saw him coming, he said to Tang Shi, "Go and do your work first. I'll just stay here."

Tang Shi nodded and left the courtyard, "Brother Hong, what's the matter?"

Hong Zhong smiled honestly: "Here, this is a reward from Kyoto. Your pot of gold belt is very popular." He said and handed the brocade box in his hand to Tang Shi.

Tang Shi took it over, "Then where is Xiaojin now?"

Hong Zhong deliberately did not answer, but took out a letter from his arms, "You will know after reading the letter."

Tang Shi's eyes lit up, and he took the letter over, "How is he doing in the capital?"

Hong Zhong smiled, "Master, it's all written in it."

"Okay, thank you Brother Hong." After seeing off Hong Zhong, Tang Shi carried the brocade box and the letter back to the yard, went back to the house and closed the door under the surprised eyes of Tang Feng and the others.

He opened the letter first, and the familiar handwriting instantly came into view. There were several pages in the letter, and he read it word by word in his heart.

The gist of the letter is this: Did you take care of yourself when you were young Tang?Have you encountered any difficulties?I'm fine in Kyoto, don't worry.Your pot of gold belt has become the oiran of Kyoto, but the emperor gave it to me, you can still see it in the future, and I will take good care of it.Ah Xu misses you very much, let me say hello to you on her behalf.Also, I miss you too.

Of course, Zhao Jin's diction is very literary. After Tang Shi finished reading it, he was happy, but he still couldn't help cursing: "It's so nasty." After finishing speaking, the corners of his mouth still couldn't help but curl up Alice.

After reading the letter, he opened the brocade box again, and saw five large silver ingots lying quietly inside the brocade box, totaling 500 taels.

Kyoto deserves to be called Kyoto, and it really is a big deal, directly ten times that of Qingping Mansion.

"Tang Shi, what are you doing in there?" After finishing his homework, Chen Hong ran over to him again, "I have some good news for you!"

Tang Shi closed the brocade box and opened the door, "What good news?"

Chen Hongxiao's face was full of excitement, "My father has been promoted!"
