After I became a general, I went back to my hometown to farm

Chapter 7 Meeting Cheng Cheng for the First Time (Revised)

◎After returning home, Cheng Cheng regarded him as a bad guy and took him directly to his door. ◎

Gu Zeyu went to Wei Yan directly this time, and Wei Yan paid more attention to his ideas this time, so he ordered someone to secretly manufacture saddles and stirrups.

The effect is absolutely amazing, very good.

Gu Zeyu was credited with great merit this time, and reported to the imperial court, who also knew about this person.

The emperor was overjoyed after learning about the saddle and stirrups, so happy he directly promoted Gu Zeyu to be the commander of ten thousand men, and took on the task of training cavalry.

This is both an honor and a trouble for Gu Zeyu.

Gu Zeyu naturally devoted himself to training cavalry, but he was not good at it after all. He just knew that it would be easier to control the horse with saddles and stirrups.

So he asked the person who trained the cavalry to train with him, presumably he is more professional.

After half a year of training, this cavalry has become well-trained, invincible, and it is not bad against the barbarians.

This is the fourth year that Gu Zeyu came to Yucheng. Gu Zeyu already has his own soldiers, and he has also got in touch with the uncle's family in Gujia Village. Although the mountains are high and the roads are far away, letters are not easy to pass.

In fact, the most difficult thing about sending letters is that Gu Zeyu can't write ancient characters. After all, they are traditional characters, and all the simplified characters are saved in his memory.

It still took nearly a year to memorize the words clearly and write them neatly.

Gu Zeyu was a little relieved, hearing that the uncle's family is doing well, the younger brother and the man have grown up, the man has been in private schools for many years, and is now a scholar.

Now he has passed the Tongsheng exam, and is now preparing for the Xiucai exam.

Everything is slowly getting better.

Gu Zeyu also had a kind of hope, he wanted the war to end soon, he wanted to resign from his old age and return to his hometown (crossed out), he should disarm and return to the field, he should also have his own private life, he is now 21 years old, his career is already Established, but the family has not yet completed.

He wanted to go home and marry a wife, so that his wife and children could live on the bed.

In fact, Gu Zeyu's sexual orientation is a bit masculine, because he thinks that most women are always sentimental, and lose their temper at every turn. He is afraid that he will be stupid and unable to coax him.

Fortunately, when he came to this world, he simply found a brother to marry. As for the difficulty of giving birth to a brother, he didn't care too much. In modern times, men are unable to have children. He has already prepared to have no children. preparation.

The modern and convenient facilities allow the elderly to live alone. For example, if you buy food online, you can ask for it to be delivered directly to your door, which is very convenient.

Now in ancient times, if you have a child, you should raise him well, and if you don't, the two will support you until you grow old.

In the fifth year when Gu Zeyu came to Yucheng, the war was over and the Hu people were repulsed. Gu Zeyu was also injured in the last battle and his arm was broken, but he could recover after a month of rest.

But Gu Zeyu met Wei Yan in person and expressed his desire to disarm and return to the farmland. Wei Yan didn't want to let him go, but seeing Gu Zeyu's firm attitude, he agreed.

For a position like Gu Zeyu, if he wants to leave, he has to get the approval of the emperor, because this is also an important position, and he manages so many soldiers.

So Wei Yan wrote in the booklet that Gu Zeyu might not be able to lead the army to fight because of his injuries, so he asked to return to his hometown to recuperate from his injuries.

The emperor still had an impression of Gu Zeyu. Seeing the earnest words in the brochure, he agreed. After all, there are many people who want this position. There are many capable people in the second generation of officials. They have long wanted to replace Gu Zeyu, a person with no background. up.

So the emperor agreed, and because Gu Zeyu made a great contribution in this decisive battle, he captured a leader of the Hu people alive, so he was directly given the honorary title of general, and then let him disarm and return to the field in the name of general .

And rewarded him with a thousand taels of gold, some rare antiques, silk and satin, and also gave him a [-]-mu land near the village.

Gu Zeyu was a little surprised when he heard these rewards. He had been a soldier for so many years, and he only saved a hundred taels of silver. Of course, there were also some spoils from the barbarians, some agates and jade, real gold and silver are rare. He couldn't save money, so once he got his salary, he would go straight to the tavern to eat and drink, and even invited a bunch of brothers to get together and relax.

The only hundred taels of silver was saved under the persuasion of the soldiers, who said that they should not be spent recklessly, and you must not save some money for your wife.

This meant that Gu Zeyu was in love, he didn't have a confidant at his age, and it took a lot of money to marry a wife.

After receiving the imperial decree, Gu Zeyu got up immediately, and the soldiers around him congratulated him and said that he had become a general.

Gu Zeyu smiled, "I'm about to retire, what kind of general, it's just a title."

But it's time to go home, and I can't take all these treasures with me, so I simply let these soldiers pick some of their favorites and take them away.

The guards were naturally happy, so each of them picked out one or two ornaments. Of course they didn't pick out the really valuable ones, they just picked out some worthless ones, and they all had a sense of proportion in their hearts.

Gu Zeyu saw that they had finished picking, and put away the rest. He was going to follow the caravan, rest for another ten days, and set off when his injuries were almost healed.

By the way, I also bid farewell to my brothers and friends, and have another dinner together.

Ten days later, Gu Zeyu boarded the carriage back home.

The whole journey was uneventful and nothing happened. The only regret was that I forgot to write a letter to my uncle, telling him that I was discharged from the army.

But it's good to give him a surprise when we go back like this.

When the carriage arrived at Gujia Village, Gu Zeyu got out of the car, and the luggage was only two bags. A man, of course, lived a rough life, and inside he only had a change of clothes, some silver, and of course the land deed of five hundred acres, and a A certificate of deposit for a large amount of silver.

Gu Zeyu was very happy and excited looking at the dirt road, the fields in the distance, and the hazy houses.

Finally back here again, the place where a new life begins.

He almost wanted to shout, I, Hu Hansan, are back again!

But I still controlled myself, Gu Zeyu, you are already 21, an adult, don't be so childish.

He looked around curiously, even if it was a small sapling, a big rock, or even the old well at the entrance of the village.

Gu Zeyu heard footsteps, and when he raised his eyes, he saw a sixteen or seventeen-year-old brother. The mole on his forehead was very red, but his face was slightly sad, as if he was worried about something. Wrinkled.

Although this brother is frowning, he is still good-looking, with a delicate face and a beautiful figure, even in plain blue clothes, he is still beautiful and moving.

Gu Zeyu stopped in his tracks, looked at this brother, and asked, "Excuse me, do you know where Mr. Gu is going?"

That brother's name is Cheng Cheng, so he naturally knows how Mr. Gu got away. Something happened to his family recently, so he is very famous.

Cheng Cheng looked at this strange man who was full of travel and dust, and became vigilant in his heart. He couldn't be here to find something about the Gu family, no, he had to be stopped.

So he turned his eyes and replied: "Yes, I will take you there."

Seeing that he agreed, Gu Zeyu smiled. He didn't expect to meet anyone so friendly, but this guy was also, and he didn't ask who he was, so he took him there. What if he was a bad guy, he was really unsuspecting. brothers.

Gu Zeyu thought so, and said so, but the brother just glared at him and said, "You don't look like a bad person."

Gu Zeyu touched his face, then looked at the nearly 1.9-meter-long body, and thought of the aura he had been in the army for many years, and he was not very confident.

But maybe this guy has bad eyesight, so I won't argue with him.

Gu Zeyu was eager to get to know this long-lost hometown, so after politely asking his brother's name, he kept asking about the situation of his uncle's house.

When Cheng Cheng heard him ask for his name, he was afraid that he would retaliate against him by remembering his name, so he directly said a fake name and said, "You can call me Gu Cheng."

Gu Zeyu didn't become suspicious after hearing this. After all, it is Gu's village, so there must be many people with the surname Gu.

Seeing that this man had been asking Mr. Gu about his family, Cheng Cheng suppressed his emotions and thought, he really was a bad guy who wanted to trouble Mr. Gu.

So I tried my best to calmly talk about some trivial things about Mr. Gu, but I didn't expect this man to be happy to hear it, with a happy smile, and the image of that rough man was weakened into a big black dog, not threatening at all.

Cheng Cheng said: "Boss Gu's eldest son has been admitted to Tongsheng, and everyone in the village is happy for him." Gu Zeyu nodded after hearing this, as if he had passed the Tongsheng exam.

Cheng Cheng said again: "Master Gu's elder brother is 14 years old now, and he has grown up very beautifully. The suitors have broken through the threshold of Mr. Gu." After hearing this, Gu Zeyu grinned first, and then darkened again. Face.

Cheng Cheng thought to himself, he wouldn't like little brother Gu Yu.

No, he wants to protect his friends.

So chatting and walking all the way, Cheng Cheng directly led Gu Zeyu to the vicinity of his house.

Seeing Father, Cheng Cheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, and winked at Father, wanting him to restrain this strange man.

But Father Cheng didn't understand his little brother's eyes at all, and asked directly: "Brother Cheng, didn't you go to sell eggs and wild vegetables? Why did you come back so soon? Did you forget to bring water?"

Then he looked at the man standing next to his brother with scrutiny, and asked, "Who is this? Which family is it from? Why are you walking with him?"

Cheng Cheng looked at his father with hatred, and said helplessly, "Father, he seems to be looking for trouble with Uncle Gu Lin, so catch him quickly."

Gu Zeyu said at the same time; "Hello, uncle, I am a child of Gu's second family, and Gu Lin is my uncle."

After Gu Zeyu finished speaking, he looked at Cheng Cheng in shock, "You think of me like this, and you pretended nothing happened along the way."

When Cheng Cheng heard Gu Zeyu's words, he covered his face in embarrassment, his face was already flushed, and he quickly hid behind his father.

Showing a small face, he apologized and said: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I thought you were a bad guy who wanted to trouble Uncle Gu Lin's family, because something happened to Uncle Gu Lin's family recently, and strange and fierce men always come to trouble their family .”

Then he explained in a low voice, "I thought you were too, because you look very fierce, like a..."

"Well, he doesn't look like a good person anyway." The last sentence was also spoken.

Gu Zeyu didn't know whether to be angry or to smile wryly now, he thought that his military demeanor would make others look like a good person.

Who knew he was still regarded as a bad guy.

But looking at that guilty face, looking at his brother as if he was sorry, Gu Zeyu couldn't get angry anymore.

Then he came up with an idea and said, "Since you said you want to take me to my uncle's house, then you have to start and finish, brother Cheng, let's go."

Cheng Cheng quickly agreed, so he looked at Father Cheng, and Father Cheng naturally agreed, but just took the basket from his hand, and said, go quickly.

The author says:

When Cheng Cheng saw Gu Zeyu for the first time, he thought to himself, this disgraced, tall man is not a good person at first glance.

When Gu Zeyu saw Cheng Cheng, he was such a pretty little guy, with red lips and white teeth, and a red mole between his brows, he took the initiative to lead me the way when he saw me, he was really kind, kind-hearted.

Later, Gu Zeyu smiled wryly, he regarded me as a bad person.

I am my uncle's dear nephew.

Shout out, I'm a good man.
