Zhang Yun's ancient life

In order to prevent himself from going to the delivery room from time to time to be silly, Zhang Yun had to find something to do to keep himself busy. He came to the kitchen and boiled red eggs in boxes, and delivered them to people he knew personally. Go, invite them to come over when the child is three or the full moon.

Because of Zhang Yun's hospitality, Zhang's mansion was full of guests on the day of Xisan, and the front yard and back yard were full of guests, with a total of [-] tables.

Unexpectedly, there would be so many guests due to insufficient estimates. Zhang Yun and Uncle Guan couldn’t be too busy at all, so they had to temporarily arrest young men, like Wei Lao and Dongfang Hao. They were originally guests, but due to their familiarity with the host, Seeing how busy Zhang Yun and his family were going around, they had no choice but to change from guests to companions, helping their family greet guests.

As for the small soldiers under Zhang Yun, they were very self-conscious. After they came, they didn't even touch the edge of the wedding banquet table, and they automatically became handymen and passers-by.

In order to thank them, after Zhang Yun sent the other guests away, he opened another eight tables of banquets to entertain them alone.

Because the number of guests was seriously underestimated, Zhang Yun and Uncle Guan were busy with their feet hitting the back of their heads this day. They really wished that they could practice composition and body skills so that one person could be used as eight.

It wasn't until all the guests were sent away that Zhang Yun came to his senses. He was so busy entertaining guests that day that he didn't even know when the delivery room dawned. He walked around in a hurry all day without even seeing his wife and children Seeing that, he stopped caring about the messy front and back yards, and walked several steps to the door of the delivery room.

Aunt Guan, who heard the voice, called him in. When Zhang Yun heard the sound and entered the room, he saw Guan Jing leaning on the quilt piled on the kang head, lowering her head and teasing the infant child.

Zhang Yun raised his feet and wanted to walk over, but stopped halfway as if he remembered something, dragged off the outer robe he was wearing, put it aside, and then started running in circles around the room.

Guan Jing and Uncle Guan looked at Zhang Yun's movements suspiciously, and they were a little dizzy from his lap after lap, so Aunt Guan asked, "Brother Yun, what are you doing?"

Zhang Yun said while running: "I just came in from the outside, and I'm still cold, so you wait for me for a while, and I'll go over after I warm up from running."

The people in the room laughed loudly when they heard the words, Aunt Guan laughed and said, "It's so delicate there, don't run away, come and see your daughter."

"Hey." Zhang Yun stopped when he heard the words, and walked quickly to the edge of Kang Yan. Guan Jing picked up the child and gently handed it to Zhang Yun.

Zhang Yun carefully took the child from Guan Jing's arms, and wrapped her around her in his arms.

The child in his arms was soft and light, with a faint milky scent on his body. Zhang Yun held the child and froze there, not daring to move, for fear of hurting her with his rough hands and feet.

Probably because the hug was not very comfortable, the child in his arms began to struggle slightly, his small nose and eyes were wrinkled, and his small mouth was slightly opened, as if he was about to cry.

Zhang Yun was very nervous. He wanted to coax her but didn't know how to coax her. He didn't dare to pat or shake, so he looked at Guan Jing as if asking for help.

Seeing Zhang Yun's eyes, Guan Jing got up and helped him adjust his posture. He asked Zhang Yun to draw out his right hand, and brought the child in with his left hand, letting her lean on Zhang Yun's chest, and then bent his elbows, arms, and hands. Stretch out and drag the child's legs and feet up.

After completing these movements, Guan Jing asked Zhang Yun to hold the child with his right hand, move his body without moving his hands, and use the strength of his waist to drive his upper body to gently swing from side to side.

It should be coaxed to be happy, the child kicked his calves, yawned again, and fell asleep in his father's arms after a while.

Seeing that the child was asleep, Zhang Yun stopped rocking. Looking at the child's slightly wrinkled face, he still couldn't help pinching it.

The child didn't seem to notice that someone was harassing her, and was still sleeping soundly in her father's arms.

Inside the house, Uncle Guan and his wife backed out without knowing when. Zhang Yun saw that there was no one in the room, and then carried the child to the edge of the Kang. body.

Zhang Yun stretched out his arms to wrap his arms around him, and together they looked at the sleeping child in his arms.

Neither of them spoke. Zhang Yun held the child in one hand and Guan Jing in the other. He suddenly felt extremely peaceful in his heart, and a sense of happiness filled his whole body.He said to Guan Jing: "I thought God let me come here alone, it was a kind of punishment for me to be different from ordinary people, but now I realize that I was wrong. This is the greatest gift God has given me. I should In which life did you accumulate great virtue to meet you, and to have a life like this that you couldn't even imagine in the past."

After hearing Zhang Yun's words, Guan Jing returned softly: "Brother Yun's words made me feel ashamed. I should be the one who said the words of gratitude. Before I met you, I lived a long life." I have to bear whatever happens, because I deserve it. If my life would not be like that without my parents, I have to accept my fate even if I don’t believe in it. Who told me to be born differently from others. It was not until I met you that I knew that people should live like this, and that I could truly live like a person. You said that the current life is something you never dared to imagine, and I am the same. I never thought that I could have a life now."

After listening to Guan Jing's words, Zhang Yun was silent for a long time before asking: "You once asked me a question, and now I will ask you back, do you really like me or did you marry me because of gratitude?"

Guan Jing smiled slightly when she heard the words, and then said in a very firm tone: "Brother Yun, I have been stupid since I was a child, and I haven't figured out what love is in the mouths of those young ladies. But I am not stupid, I can feel it." I don’t know who is the person who treats me well. I don’t know what love is. I only know that you are my life. If God really loves me, let me go before you. I can’t be here Survive in a world without you."

"Don't think about it." Zhang Yun lightly drank Guan Jing and continued: "Since God has tried his best to let us meet, he will not separate us easily. I think we will always be together until we are seventy or eighty, until God. You can’t even look at it and accept us.”

Guan Jing didn't reply, but put her head on Zhang Yun's face, feeling his breath.

Zhang Yun thought he was tired, so he said, "It's been a busy day, so let's take a rest instead." While talking, he handed the child to Guan Jing, and climbed onto the kang to spread the quilt.

After laying the kang, Zhang Yun seemed to have thought of something and asked Guan Jing: "Mother and dad have gone to sleep next door. What if the child is hungry at night? Or I should go to sleep in the wing room, which is more convenient." .”

Guan Jing heard the words and replied: "According to what you said, if the child does not avoid milk for a year, don't you have to go to sleep in the wing room for a year? Don't worry, mother has already thought about it, starting from this morning. Feed her the boiled goat's milk, there is still some that in the pot, if the child is hungry at night, just go down to the ground to warm it up and feed it to her."

Zhang Yun breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and Guan Jing said to him again: "Brother Yun, help me bring the baby's cradle here."

Hearing this, Zhang Yun walked down to the cabinet, took out a big rattan cradle from the cabinet, and handed it to Guan Jing.

Guan Jing supported the child with one hand, and pulled out the covered warm quilt with the other, spread them into the basket, then put the child in lightly, covered her with the quilt carefully, and pressed the corners of the quilt.

Zhang Yun watched Guan Jing finish these things before turning off the oil lamp in the house, turning over to bed with his daughter-in-law in his arms.

In the evening, Zhang Yun got up to feed the child once, and changed the diaper twice. Early the next morning, Zhang Yun, who was on vacation, bid farewell to his wife and children, and rode to work on horseback.

When I came back in the afternoon, I saw Aunt Ma was washing diapers in the yard, drying a bunch of them on a long rope. Zhang Yun walked over to her and said, "Aunt Ma, you have been working hard recently. You see, when I invited you, I said Alright, I just cook three meals and tidy up the house, but now that there are too many things to do, I will let you do all the chores."

Aunt Ma raised her head and glanced at Zhang Yun when she heard the words, and then she said while she was doing the work in hand: "Look at what you said, master, I have worked for so many people, and the master and wife are the best for people, not only the wages He gave it in time and never scolded me. It is my good fortune to meet such a kind owner."

Zhang Yun smiled and said: "Although you said so, if you do too much, you have done too much. I can't tell you that your hard work is in vain. You will be used more and more in the future. Let's do it. I will give you a salary increase of 100 Wen every month, do you think this can be done?"

Aunt Ma replied with a smile on her face when she heard the words: "Yes, yes, I knew that the master and wife are the most kind, and I was not mistaken."

Zhang Yun's salary increase for Aunt Ma is really quite a lot, which is enough for their family's living expenses for ten days based on the consumption level of Aunt Ma's family.

Vegetables, eggs, common fish and shrimp and small poultry are not expensive here, but oil, salt, rice and meat from large livestock are more expensive.

For example, an egg costs three cents, a handful of vegetables costs a penny, and a rooster weighing four or five catties costs about 35 cents, which is about the same price as a catty of mutton.Salt and sugar are even more expensive, and they are calculated as two. Zhang Yun and his family spend about 100 renminbi on varnish, salt, sauce, vinegar and seasoning every month.

Although the matter of raising Aunt Ma's salary was Zhang Yun's temporary idea, it is still something that should be done. After all, I have done so much work. It is okay for a day or two, but it is inevitable that there will be some complaints after a long time. .Instead of letting people come to ask for a raise, Zhang Yun should ask for it first, so that Aunt Ma can feel grateful and pay more attention to her work.
