Water Margin official

Chapter 235 Du Qian returns to the mountain

At noon, Zhang Zhengdao was bored in the Juyi Hall and had no intention of taking care of the affairs of the village, so he walked back to the back house. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he heard the sweet sound of mahjong tiles being knocked on the table.

The mahjong tiles that the girls play today are made of fine ebony and are polished, both in terms of feel and workmanship.

Entering the house, I was surprised to find that Mrs. Jia was sitting at the card table, stretching out her delicate hands to play a mahjong tile!

"Two barrels!" Lin thought for a moment and then played the card.

"Five!" Wu Yueniang touched the cards and played them directly.

"Sister, I'm really lucky today, Qibibing!" Pan Jinlian followed.

The women in the room were all focused on the card table, and no one noticed Zhang Zhengdao entering the room.

Mrs. Jia saw her son-in-law entering the room at a glance, her cheeks were a little red with embarrassment, and she did not dare to look at him.

Zhang Zhengdao walked a few steps, came behind Mrs. Jia, glanced at the mahjong tiles beside her table, then stretched out his hand, played another one for her, and said with a smile: "Mother-in-law, you are really good at playing this card."<

/p>

Mrs. Jia breathed in the familiar masculine scent in her nose and said with a blush, "I haven't won one yet."

Lin, who was sitting next to Mrs. Jia, smiled and said, "Da Lang, why don't you come over and help me? It's Yueniang who keeps winning today."

Wu Yueniang, Lin's subordinate, retorted with a smile: "The slave family lost so much money before, but today we are feeling better."

Zhang Zhengdao turned his head to look at Lin's cards, but in a hurry, he knocked one of Mrs. Jia's cards to the ground.

Gently knocking his hand away, Mrs. Jia tremblingly played another card.

"It's settled!" Lin suddenly laughed.

Mrs. Jia rolled her eyes at Zhang Zhengdao and said angrily: "I blame Dalang for causing trouble here, so I won't fight him!"

Wu Yueniang stretched herself and said, "It's good to rest for a while!"

All the girls stood up.

Zhang Zhengdao asked: "Where are the others?"

Lin said: "Maybe they are all in the second mother's room, teasing the children."

Zhang Zhengdao smiled and said: "Let's have lunch first, and my mother-in-law can stay with us."

Mrs. Jia shook her head and said, "I'll go to the backyard and talk to your mother for a while."

After saying that, he walked away.

Mrs. Lin smiled and said: "I'll go to the kitchen and have a look."

Pan Jinlian understood and said: "Sister, go with your sister."

The two girls also took the maid away.

Wu Yueniang was the only woman left in the house.

Zhang Zhengdao took her hand and sat down, and said seriously: "I have wronged you, follow me up the mountain and become a bandit."

Wu Yueniang shook her head and said: "Although I don't know why my husband gave up his official position and became king, but since we have made a marriage, we are a family. Even if the slave wants to regret the marriage, I am afraid that he will be held accountable by the court."

Zhang Zhengdao said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, Yueniang, it won't be long before our family can walk uprightly on the territory of the Song Dynasty."

Wu Yueniang asked: "The official is talking about Zhao'an? But the Nu family can't figure it out!"

The girls really couldn't figure out why Zhang Zhengdao wanted to go up the mountain to weed. The Zhang family was one of the largest families in Qinghe County. They had no worries about food and clothing, so why did they suddenly abandon their family business and gather in the mountains and forests.

If she were to walk openly and openly in the Song Dynasty in the future, Wu Yueniang could not think of any other way to eliminate her identity as a bandit except for the imperial edict.

But why bother?

Wu Yueniang doesn’t understand!

Zhang Zhengdao sighed: "Nowadays, the world is not peaceful. It is difficult to make a difference as an official in the government. Only by breaking out of the shackles and rebuilding a world can it be possible to gather so many troops."

"It's impossible to Zhao'an. My wife will understand in the future!" Zhang Zhengdao said with a smile.

Wu Yueniang seemed to understand but said softly: "The slave family only knows that as long as the family is safe, everything will be fine."

Zhang Zhengdao put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Now that I have more than ten thousand soldiers and horses, and a territory that is not inferior to that of Yunzhou, I will definitely protect the Zhang family's safety for the rest of my life."

Wu Yueniang asked out of curiosity: "Husband, what is Jeju Island really like?"

Zhang Zhengdao recalled: "Jeju Island covers a very large area, not much smaller than Yunzhou, but has a mild climate and beautiful scenery, and can support hundreds of thousands of people."

"When the ship from Liangshan comes back, I will take you to the island for a walk." Zhang Zhengdao said again.

Wu Yueniang shook her head and said: "Sisters have discussed it. We will be where our husband is. We don't want to stay away from our husband for a moment of peace."

Zhang Zhengdao smiled and said: "Okay, just follow what the ladies want."

The two were affectionate for a moment, and then they saw Sun Xue'e entering the house and saying, "Officer, lunch is ready."

Zhang Zhengdao hugged Wu Yueniang, and under the guidance of Sun Xue'e, came to the front hall to eat.

A group of women gathered together and sat in the hall waiting.

Lin, Mrs. Wei, Meng Yulou, Pan Jinlian, Sun Erniang, Jia, Wu Yin'er, Zhang Xichun, Qin Yuzhi and others were all sitting on chairs, chatting with each other about interesting things.

Even the pretty doctor Jiang Huilian is also there.

Except for the pregnant Li Jiaoer, the two sisters Han Jinchuan and Han Yuchuan were not present.

There are also several servant girls waiting on the side.

Looking at the room full of warblers and swallows, Zhang Zhengdao smiled and said, "It's rare that we all have dinner together today."

Wu Yueniang said: "Husband, let's have dinner."

Zhang Zhengdao sat down and ordered Sun Xue'e to serve the food.

Dishes were served one after another. Although he was in Liangshan and there was a relative shortage of supplies, Zhang Zhengdao specifically ordered that wine, meat, fruits, and vegetables be delivered on time every day, which is indispensable.

The leader of the village personally gave the order, and the head of the village's warehouse did not dare to neglect. He brought more than ten minions with him every day to personally deliver the wine, food, meat and dishes on time.

During the dinner, Zhang Zhengdao and the other girls were joking and having fun, and they were having a good time.

Life in the village consists of training soldiers and recruiting leaders. To be honest, it is very boring.

Fortunately, these women can soothe Zhang Zhengdao's tense nerves.

After lunch, I went back to the room to take a nap and rest for a while, and then returned to the Juyi Hall in Qianshan.

As soon as he sat down on the high chair, he saw a young man walking in quickly, handing over his hand to report: "Zhai leader, Dongshan Hotel has come to report that leader Du Qian is back."

Zhang Zhengdao was overjoyed and asked: "Is he the only one coming back?"

The young man shook his head and said: "The letter only said that Du Qian will lead the leader back to the mountain."

It turns out that the flying pigeons of Dongshan Hotel carry messages. After a period of domestication in the village, pigeons can now be used simply to send messages to each other.

Zhang Zhengdao stood up and said: "Get ready for the fast boat and go to Dongshan Hotel."

A moment later, a speedboat crossed the waterline from Jinshatan Pier and rushed to the Lijia Road crossing.

After landing at the pavilion in the backyard of Dongshan Hotel, I heard a commotion coming from the store.

Stepping into the store, I saw Du Qian's tall body standing in the center, holding a wine bowl and talking happily.

Shi Qian stood aside and spoke in agreement from time to time.

"Brother Du Qian." Zhang Zhengdao laughed loudly: "But it's dark!"
