The Prosperous Era of Longwan

Today, several children in the private school are looking forward to the time passing by faster so that they can go home early.

When school was finally over, Wei Guangde and several children ran out with their schoolbags on their backs without looking back, unwilling to stay in the private school for a moment.

To be honest, Master Sun was very disappointed by the performance of these children. He felt that these children did not focus on their studies at all.

Most of the scholars in this era still adhere to the principle of "not hearing anything outside the window, and only reading the books of sages." Therefore, Master Sun really doesn't know what has happened in recent days, but he just feels that the children of the military households are a bit active today. , seems to have encountered something happy.

Wei Guangde and others rushed out of the private school and quickly ran out of the town. By this time, they were all a little tired, and they gradually slowed down and continued to trot home.

Not far after leaving the town, we entered the field area of ​​​​Junbao. In the fields that had been deserted a few days ago, several farmers appeared working.

Seeing this scene, Wei Guangde and others quickly recognized that the people in the field were the soldiers at home in the guard house.

They went on the expedition, and now they are all in the fields, which must mean they are all back.

The people of the Ming Dynasty were still very simple in the middle period. In fact, even at the end of the Ming Dynasty, they were still hardworking and hardworking. As long as they had something to eat, it was nothing to suffer a little.

These soldiers should have just returned today. Wei Guangde couldn't guess whether it was noon or afternoon. He saw no one on the way to the private school in the morning.

But just like that, I went out for several days. When I got home, I didn't say how much rest I had for a few days. I just put down my things and went to work in the fields.

After all, the whole team left in a hurry, and many people did not clean up the work in the fields neatly.

I saw a few children running over, and the men in the field waved to them. The fort was such a big place, and there were so many people, and no one knew anyone.

After asking, I found out that they arrived home after noon. They got off the boat at Pengze Pier last night. Because it was too late, they did not rush back overnight and set off after a night's rest.

Waving his hands, Wei Guangde and the others continued to trot towards the military fort. They soon saw the military fort, and the two sentinel boats on the river in the distance that had been docked for many days were also cruising on the river. There were fish to eat again tonight. .

After entering the fort gate, the friends said goodbye and went home. They were in a good mood today. When the soldier guarding the gate of the mansion greeted him, Wei Guangde responded with a smile.

As soon as I ran into the house, there were already many people in the front yard, sweeping away the deserted environment before.

Outside the lobby, Wei Guangde heard the voice of Father Wei speaking.

". Warehouse, that's good. Everyone has been out for a few days. See if there is no other work on hand, let's leave now and go back to rest for a few days."

"Thank you, sir."

Other people's voices came from the lobby, and Wei Guangde also heard them. Although it was a bit noisy, he could still tell that they were the voices of several general flags and small flags in the fort.

Sure enough, after just standing outside the door for a moment, they saw Zhang Dayong and several other officers walking out of the lobby. When they saw Wei Guangde standing outside the door, they all laughed and teased him a few words before leaving.

Some of them left in a hurry. When they saw Wei Guangde here, they knew that their boy must be back.

In this year, home is taken very seriously, and family members are even more important.

They have been away from home for several days, and these seemingly rough-and-tumble military men are actually quite homesick.

It’s just that when I came back this time, I also brought back a lot of luggage, so I first asked people to move things into the warehouse, and also arranged other things in the guardhouse. I also had to catch up on the river patrol and fishing that I had delayed before. , otherwise there would be no fish to eat tonight.

As for the soldiers, they naturally went to work in their own fields without any arrangements, which was the same people Wei Guangde and the others met when they came back.

For the soldiers, they did not expect much food from the superiors every year. They had to rely on their own hands to dig food from the fields.

For the soldiers in Bengshan Fort, it would be good to meet a good official like Wei Baihu. After working for a year, at least they can still have something to eat. Although they are not full, they will not starve to death, just hanging like this.

At the end of the year, you can still see some money to spend during the New Year.

The location of the garrison is also good, facing the Yangtze River, and you can get some fish from time to time, which is much better than the garrison troops in other places.

In fact, the entire Jiujiang Guard garrison area is in a good location.

Since it is called Jiujiang, the density of rivers here is naturally relatively high, and rivers can always be seen around the guard station.

It's just that the ones next to the river are not allocated fishing boats. No, they should be said to be sentry boats, used for patrolling the river. They are military equipment.

Those health posts that rely on the Yangtze River and Poyang Lake will always be assigned a few boats. They can go fishing in addition to patrolling the river, and their lives will naturally be much easier than those of other health posts.

Seeing that the person was gone, Wei Guangde entered the lobby, looked at his father sitting behind the desk in the lobby, and called out cordially, "Dad, you are back."

Although it is nonsense, Wei Guangde feels that this is what he should do at this time, as a son to express his longing for his father.

"came back."

Wei Meng looked at his youngest son who came in with a smile on his face.

"Have you listened to your mother and brother since you haven't been here these days?"

Wei Guangde naturally nodded like a chicken pecking rice at Dad Wei's question. Although he really wanted to ask his dad how they had been doing these past few days, it seemed that now was not the time.

In the lobby at this time, in addition to their father and son, Wei Wencai was also standing next to his father. After listening to their conversation, he interjected: "A few days ago, after you left, dad, this kid hasn't practiced calligraphy at home. hehe"

Is it really okay to snitch in front of others?

When Wei Guangde heard his eldest brother mention this, he was naturally a little embarrassed.

"However, didn't you see dad and your fleet coming back yesterday? This kid just calmed down and practiced for a while after dinner."

After laughing, Wei Wencai continued.

"I made you worry."

Father Wei touched his beard and said.

It seems that people in the Ming Dynasty like to grow beards. My father is like this, and so is Mr. Sun in his private school.

Seeing Father Wei's actions, Wei Guangde unconsciously reached out and touched his bare chin.

"When I came back and saw that everything was fine at home, my father felt at ease. By the way, go and see if the boat has returned and ask them to take care of more. Today, every family in the fort needs to share some. We are all tired after being outside for a few days. It’s scary.”

Father Wei was very concerned about the soldiers in the fort. When he came back, he arranged for sailors to go fishing. Maybe this was his habit.

It is said that relying on mountains and mountains depends on water, and relying on the Yangtze River, it is natural to think there.

Wei Wencai agreed and turned around to leave. Wei Guangde also jumped to the side of the case and asked about Father Wei's experience in the past few days.
