Chapter 2043 Gifford
Gu Dalin and the others have been driving to the northwest since last year, and now they are close to the territory of Changliang Wei. They have been walking for half a year. The road to the northwest is long and arduous.
Tang Baihu, are we almost here? Gifford rode over and asked, looking at the barren mountains and ridges around him, he really didnt know where Changliang Wei was hiding?
Tang Baihu, the former Tang Zongqi, smiled and said: "Master Ji Jiu, don't be impatient. After walking for half an hour, after passing the waterless ditch in front, we will reach the territory of Changliang Wei."
This huge convoy is composed of the Ji family, the Xie family, and the Gu family, so in addition to Bao Zongqi, there is also Tang Baihu from the big port guard who came to pick them up.
However, they will stay in Changliangwei tonight, and then set off for Dabuwei tomorrow.
After hearing this, Gifford felt relieved and said, "It's hard work for hundreds of households."
He smiled at Bao Zongqi again and said, "Bao Zongqi, this is going to trouble your guard post. You have to entertain so many of us."
Looking at the huge and almost invisible team, he asked worriedly: "The guard station is an important military area. If we have so many people staying here, it won't cause any trouble for Qin Qianhu, right?"
Bao Zongqi said with a smile: "Master Ji Jiu, don't worry. The people you brought can all prove their identities and have been registered at the Long'an Prefecture and Mu County gathering places, and our three health offices have jointly cooperated." Sure, you can enter the guard station. I just have to force you to live in the camp outside the guard station."
Only people close to the guardhouse can enter, such as the bodyguards escorting the convoy. General servants and guards are not allowed to enter for the time being.
Gifford smiled and said: "This is not an injustice. We traveled all the way west and lived in the wild for several months. We have long been accustomed to living in tents. As long as we don't cause trouble to Chang Liang Wei."
After saying that, he took out a sheepskin water bag and handed it to Bao Zongqi: "It's cold and windy. Bao Zongqi's mouth is a little purple. He must be freezing. Drink some **** soup to warm yourself up."
Zongqi Bao took the sheepskin water bag and drank a few mouthfuls. The spicy taste of the **** soup made him sneeze several times.
After sneezing, the coldness went away a lot and my whole body felt warm.
Its great! Bao Zongqi felt very comfortable and returned the sheepskin water bag to Gifford: Thank you.
"Mr. Bao, you're welcome." Gifford took out another sheepskin water bag from a thick bag on his horse and handed it to Tang Baihu: "Tang Baihu also has some."
Tang Baihu smiled: "Ji Jiuye is really a meticulous person. He even brought me a new one. I am so familiar with Lao Bao and they have fought together. We even lay in the pile of corpses together and drank his saliva. I I dont mind it.
After hearing this, Mr. Bao Qi gave him a fist salute and said with a smile, "Thank you very much, Tang Baihu, for your kindness."
Tang Baihu laughed and scolded: "Get out of here, you have become more and more skinny after living a good life."
Gifford was very happy to see the two of them playing around. It seemed that not only Qin Qianhu and Uncle Xie had a good relationship, but also the soldiers of the two guards got along well with each other, so he felt relieved, and so could his clan uncle.
Gifford's clan uncle is Mr. Ji... Gifford's fate was not good. His mother died when he was born, and his father was incompetent. He was good at eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling. Within two years, he was choked by the food he had eaten when he was drunk and vomiting. The trachea is suffocated.
From then on, all he had left was a sick grandfather and the debt left by his biological father. The creditor was from a gambling house. He came to the house with the deed signed by his father and took over the house and land. There was nothing left in the house.
Grandpa knew that he was sick and would not live long, so he took him all the way from the countryside to Ji's house in Fucheng. Using his kindness of helping Mr. Ji when he was young, he met Mr. Ji and begged him to buy him as a wife. My slave, I said that I can sign a death contract, all I want is for him to grow up safely, and then help him start a family and leave a trace of incense in his family.
Mr. Keji didnt agree, saying, Where is the reason to buy a member of the same race as a slave?
Rather than asking him to sign a deed of sale, he took them in, let them live in the house, help the house do some work, and gave them some monthly money, which was regarded as hiring them.
As a result, their grandparents and grandchildren settled down, and under the care of Mr. Ji, grandpa lived for several more years, until he reached adulthood at the age of twelve, and then passed away.
When his grandfather was dying, he only left him one sentence: "I must repay my kindness. Although you did not sign the deed of betrayal, your life and your abilities were all given by your uncle. In this life, you will die." You can't do anything to disgrace the Ji family."
Grandpa said this because he was learning to be an accountant at that time. After completing his studies, he would help his uncle's family do the accounts. As an accountant, accounting skills are secondary, and the most important thing is to pay attention to the master. You are loyal to your family and cannot have any bad intentions towards your masters family.
He agreed and swore a poisonous oath.
Because of all these, the clan uncle trusted him very much. This time he did not send his own son, but his clan nephew.
From then on, he worked as an errand for Aunt Xie and Aunt Xie together with Mr. and Mrs. Ji, Master Ji, until he died of old age.
Cough cough cough!
There was a coughing sound. After Gifford heard it, he said: "I'm going to see Brother Dalin. He has been in poor health."
After saying that, he rode his horse and rushed to the carriage where Gu Dalin was sitting. He dismounted and let the horses follow the convoy. Then he signaled the driver to slow down, climbed on the front panel of the carriage, lifted the curtain and got in. .
"Brother Dalin, why are you coughing again? Are you coughing up blood?" Gifford asked nervously. When passing through Gujia Village in Gaoshui County a few years ago, Gu Dalin met Qin Qianhu's people who stayed in the village and learned that Something happened, and he vomited blood on the spot and became seriously ill.
Later, I contracted a cold and started to cough. There was blood in the phlegm I coughed up.
But the doctor said that Gu Dalin's disease was not tuberculosis, but **** sputum caused by blood flowing into the trachea and throat after vomiting blood. As long as he no longer coughs up **** sputum after a few days, there is no need to worry.
Although more than a month has passed, Gifford still remembers this. Whenever Gu Dalin coughs, he will ask if there is **** sputum.
Xia Zhang was ordered to follow Bao Zongqi to pick up Gu Dalin and the others. At this moment, he replied: "I'm not coughing up blood. Don't worry, Master Ji Jiu."
After hearing this, Ji Fudou felt relieved. He was about to lift the curtain and call the doctor to come in to check Gu Dalin's pulse, but Gu Dalin stopped him: "Brother Ji Jiu, no need, I'm fine. I just thought of something and got a little excited and lost my temper. The cough just now...is gone now, no need to call the doctor in."
Gifford looked at his face. Although it was a little pale, fortunately he already looked like a human being. It was not like when he was in Gujiacun before, his face was all golden and purple, and he looked like he was about to die.
"Okay, don't call the doctor. You have a good rest and don't think too much." Although Gifford didn't know what Gu Dalin had learned, it hit him so hard that he had to comfort Gu Dalin. Two sentences: "We are almost at the health center. We should be happy. We can put aside the bad things around us and they can always be solved."
