Chapter 521 Meeting classmates
Everyone in the Nie family was also stunned by everything in the house, and it took at least a few days for everyone to recover.
They thought that when they were tired from the journey, everyone would sleep until the end of the day and then wake up, but sensible people would get up at dawn.
Everyone was so excited that they couldn't sleep. They wanted to see everything in the castle early in the morning to feel at ease. Even 11-year-old Wei Wenbin got up early in the morning.
Of course, those young ladies and wives still slept soundly and did not wake up. They lived in the wild all the way, how could they sleep well!
Wei Dabin took his subordinates and asked them to lead his father and uncle in the carriage to look around, while he personally took his grandfather to see Master Cheng and the others.
Wei Lubin also accompanied his parents and brothers, Wei Huaicheng was able to walk, and he took his wife, children and father-in-law around.
People in the castle greeted Wei Lubin warmly, "Little General, congratulations, your father and the others have finally arrived."
"Thank you, I will bring your family to live with you when you have time." Wei Lubin responded politely.
"The fifth brother is amazing! They all call you general!" Wei Wenbin said enviously.
"Hey! I'm nothing, our eldest brother is great. He is the general in the castle. Apart from our grandfather and his wife, the eldest brother is the most official." Wei Lubin said honestly.
The Wei family who followed him: "..." I don't understand.
He went on to say: "The big general is only his eldest brother. Small generals like him have more than a hundred people in the castle."
The Wei family understands that. The son of their family master is doing well. Wei Lubin's father, the third son of the Wei family, is very proud, and his son is also doing well.
"Fifth brother, how many people are there in your castle? Why does the fourth uncle see people everywhere?"
"There were less than 80,000 people before you came. Yesterday, 6,000 people arrived, almost 85,000 people." Wei Lubin was very clear about the specific number of people in the castle.
"Wow! You 80,000 people eat eight dishes without meals?" Second Uncle Wei felt hungry after recalling the eight dishes last night.
"We usually have three dishes and one soup. Today is our grandfather's birthday, so we ate eight dishes last night."
"With so many of you, it's great to have enough rice, and I'm so happy to have three dishes and one soup!"
"Fourth uncle, you will be the same in the future. Everyone in Xuanyan City is equal, and our father and wife's family also eat the same food."
"Your grandfather is the Marquis of Zhennan, isn't he? The fourth uncle met him once in the Chaotang before, and he was so arrogant and unruly that he was stunned to death." He was also quite frightened at the time.
"No! Our grandfather is gentle, and he has never had a dark face." Every time Wei Lubin sees Chu Lixuan, Jiang Xinyan is by his side, so he is happy in his heart.
"Isn't that the Marquis of Zhennan?" Wei Sanshu asked his son suspiciously.
"Yes in the past, but now they are all exiles, and we are not lords. Our grandfather and wife are the owners of the castle. Dad, you see, we planted those high grain heaps by ourselves."
Wei Lubin took them to the grain drying yard. From a distance, Mrs. Cheng and Old Man Song came to dry the grain early in the morning. They had already uncovered the straw on the top of several grain piles.
Wei's grandfather and Wei Dabin approached Master Cheng, "Dabin sees Cheng's grandfather, this is my grandfather."
"Brother Mo Yuan, is it really you?" You are still alive after 30 years of exile.
Wei Changshan, the grandfather of the Wei family, was extremely surprised. Mrs. Cheng and him were classmates back then. Although they were not friends, they were classmates and later civil servants.
"Brother Changshan, I haven't seen you for more than 30 years, but you still haven't changed." How come you look older than me!
When Mrs. Cheng saw Wei Changshan like this, he smiled with a sense of superiority, and the wrinkles on his face stretched out.
Wei Changshan has been pampered in the capital for too long. After walking along the road for three months, the sun and rain are naturally vicissitudes.
And although Mrs. Cheng has lived like a savage for several years, he has been nursed back for more than half a year, and he is already red-faced and looks much younger.
A comparison of the two, oh! An exile is more red-faced and more energetic than a Beijing official.
Nie Cimeng also came with his grandfather. They were classmates with Grandfather Cheng and Grandfather Song. Although they could not be called friends, they still had common classmates.
I havent seen each other for decades, but its still very cordial to meet rashly. After being silent for a while, lets talk.
Wei Dabin and Nie Cimeng started to uncover the straw on the grain piles, and covered the grain piles with straw at night to prevent the cold dew and silent wetness of the grain piles, which would take another half an hour to dry.
The fathers and uncles of the Wei family and the Nie family also arrived. Everyone learned to work, uncovering the straw and spreading the rice with a rake until the sun came out to dry it.
"A lot of rice here?"
"What's so much here, we went into the warehouse every three days, and we've already posted four so many into the warehouse."
"Oh my God! Four are so many, how much is that? There are at least 50,000 stones here, right?"
"Well, your kid has a good eye. After drying, it's about fifty thousand stone." Grandfather Song has a straightforward personality.
"You have already received four 50,000 shi of rice into the warehouse?" The Wei family leader was shocked.
When he was the Minister of the Household, the entire Dongchen Kingdom never had more than 200,000 shi of grain a year!
Of course, military salaries are all grain allocated from local prefectures and cities, and the specific amount of grain stored by other noble families is not under the control of the household department.
"General Wei, go back to breakfast." A soldier on horseback shouted.
Everyone went back to have breakfast together, and the rich breakfast surprised them again. No wonder everyone was flushed, so they ate so well.
Today's breakfast is a piece of cake per person, a glass of milk, a bowl of preserved egg lean meat porridge, and a meat bun.
Cake is because the Fire Head Army only learned it yesterday, so I want to practice more. The meat buns are filled with thin skin, and the preserved egg and lean meat porridge is something that the newcomer has never had before.
After breakfast, everyone went to work. The new arrivals were arranged by Nie Cimeng and Zhao Yu to do whatever they could.
Chu Lixuan and his wife indulged all night. They didn't sleep until dawn, and they didn't get up until the third day. Fortunately, they slept in the space.
The speed in the space is super slow, which is equivalent to half a day and one night outside. The couple sleep quality is very good.
Chu Lixuan woke up first and looked at the people around him quietly. The warmth at this moment made him always remember in his heart that his little daughter-in-law was the best girl in the world.
He will definitely cherish it, not only because the petite wife cured his leg, but also because her every smile, every word and deed is everything to him, everything he has...
