The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 28 Chapter 28
After returning home, Duan Yanqing immediately began to slaughter pigs and meat. The whole family was busy. At noon, the owner of the rice noodle shop pushed the rice noodles over. They all fled into the house.

Duan Wuji had nothing to do, so he led his new horse and practiced martial arts while letting it go.

After dark, the owner of the tailor shop delivered the newly made clothes, and the family put on the new clothes and happily ate a big pork meal.

Three days later, Duan Wuji put on new clothes, rode his beloved white horse, and went straight to the home of the third grandfather of Duanjiaji.

When I entered the third grandfather's house, I saw that Tie Niu had already come, and that Tie Niu was sitting on the steps in front of the door chatting with the third grandfather, and the third grandfather was sitting on a grand teacher's chair talking to the third grandfather. Duan Tieniu was gossiping.

Duan Yingchun also sat on a small orange next to her, interjecting from time to time.

Duan Wuji jumped off his horse, tied the animal to the poplar tree, and walked over.

The three of them hurriedly greeted Duan Wuji when they saw each other.

"Wuji, here you come, sit down quickly. Sit, sit, sit."

Duan Wuji had no choice but to pick a brick from the side and sit down.

The third grandpa looked at Duan Wuji with a smile and said, "Wuji, I heard that you have made a lot of money in the past 20 days? Why don't you tell grandpa?"

As soon as Duan Wuji heard it, he knew it was the Iron Bull who said it.

Duan Wuji smiled at the third grandfather. "Grandfather third, what a fortune! Didn't you just risk your life to earn such a small amount of money in the past 20 days? What is there to say?"

Duan Yingchun laughed and said: "Father, you heard how arrogant Wuji is! Isn't it just that he earned such a small amount of money in more than 20 days? That's 200 taels of silver!"

The third grandfather glanced at Duan Wuji and said with a smile: "Yingchun, do you think Wuji is a creature in the pond?

This kid has been acting like this since I knew him, maybe you will still count on this kid in the future.

This mere 200 taels of silver may really be nothing to him.

You can't look at it with the eyes of us farmers.

Wuji, sit down quickly. "

Duan Wuji sat on half a brick, looked at the third grandfather and said: "Grandfather, you think too highly of me.

Wuji is just a cowherd in the countryside, how can there be such a great fortune? "

The third grandpa smiled and shook his head.

"Whether it's a dragon or a worm will be known in a few years, we don't need to argue about it.

Hey, Promise, do you want to let the cows go when you have money? "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Let it go, why should I go if I don't let the cattle go? I can't just sit and eat at home."

The third grandpa smiled and nodded.

"Well, from today onwards, you can continue to herd the cows. The farm work has been busy these days, and all the cows have lost weight. If you sell them, they will cost a lot of money. Let's sell them after you let them out for a month or two. Let’s earn a little more money after fattening.”

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Who says it's not! After selling this batch of cows, we will buy calves next year.

Hey, brother Tieniu, are you not going to herd cattle? "

Tie Niu laughed when he heard this. "Brother, you said that you are always herding cattle, can I not let you go? Besides, I was thinking of also herding cattle and learning martial arts from you.

I know for myself these two times, if you didn't cover me this time, maybe I would have my life, so how can I have any chance to make money?
Brother, I'm going to hang out with you. Anyway, I'll do whatever you want. Brother, you can't let me go. Brother, I'm sure you won't lose money if you follow you.

I Tie Niu listens to everything others say, and I Tie Niu listens to you. "

The third grandfather heard this and said to Duan Yingchun: "Go, let the kitchen make more dry food, and let them herd the cattle after dinner."

After hearing this, Duan Yingchun immediately stood up, walked towards the kitchen with a smile on her face.

After breakfast, Tieniu carried dry rations on his back, and the two walked straight to the outside of the village with their horses and cattle.

The two drove the cattle to the place with the most grass, and then the two started practicing martial arts again.

Duan Wuji practiced swords, and Niu Tie practiced sticks.

When they were tired from playing, the two of them started to take out dry food to eat. When they were full, the two of them started to practice boxing and kicking again. They continued to toss until dark, and then the two of them drove the cattle home for dinner.

It took the two of them herding cattle for two months. In these two months, the two of them worked tirelessly from dawn to dusk!

Seeing that the weather is getting colder day by day, there is less and less pasture available.

When I came back that evening, I saw the third grandfather was standing at the door with a cane, smiling and waiting.

When Duan Wuji and Tieniu saw each other, they quickly jumped off their horses.

"Grandpa, why are you out today? It's so cold, aren't you afraid of freezing?

Come, let me help you to the house.Hey, Brother Tieniu, let this herd of cows be thrown into the barn.Even the two horses were tied up. "

Tie Niu laughed when he heard this.

"Brother, don't worry."

Duan Wuji gave Tieniu a laugh, then helped the third grandfather and went straight to the house.

When he came to the house, Duan Wuji helped the third grandfather to sit down.

Duan Wuji asked with a smile: "Grandfather, what's the matter?"

"Wuji, you see, the weather is getting colder and the pasture is hard to find. I plan to drive the cattle to Taiyuan Mansion tomorrow to sell them, so that you can have a good winter, what do you think? "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Okay? Without the cattle, I can concentrate on going home and practicing martial arts. This is a good thing."

"Well, since you agree, I don't think you should go tomorrow, let your second grandpa sell the cow for you. I will return the money to you when I come back. What do you think?"

Duan Wuji nodded. "Grandpa Sanzu, I think you should bring Tien Niu with you when you sell the cattle tomorrow. It's best to let him go with you. He's not much worse than me."

The third grandfather listened and nodded. "Well, Wuji, you want to go with me. Let's do it like this. I'll arrange it. Let's go to dinner. Today I specially asked them to cook something delicious. Let's go."

After dinner, Duan Wuji immediately bid farewell to the third grandfather's family, and rode back to his home.

Duan Wuji tied up the animals and fed them, and then practiced boxing and kicking in his small yard. It was not until the middle of the night that Duan Wuji went back to the house and fell asleep deeply.

At dawn the next day, Duan Wuji practiced his sword skills in the yard, and he didn't see him until Duan Yanqing came over to circle around.

"When did Wuji come back? You're not going to herd cattle anymore?"

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Today the third grandfather asked people to sell the cattle, so I don't have to go."

Duan Yanqing was overjoyed when he heard this. "Okay, it's better to sell it, and it will save your mother from missing you every day, hey, Wuji, let's go to eat later.

I'll ask your mother to cook something delicious for you. "

With that said, Duan Yanqing turned around and walked out.

When the sun was rising, Duan Wuji finished his martial arts practice and turned back home.

A scent hit her nose, and Liu Caihua looked at her little son whom she hadn't seen in two months and said happily: "Damn, sit down quickly, mother has cooked something delicious for you, sit down and eat quickly."

After the family had breakfast, Duan Wuji went back to the courtyard of his cowshed to continue practicing martial arts.

When it was getting dark, Duan Yingchun joyfully handed over the money for selling the cattle in person.

Duan Yingchun said to Duan Yanqing: "Nephew, we will make a fortune this year. The ten or so cows bought a total of two hundred and six taels of grain silver. Excluding the capital and various expenses, we can earn him more than 0 taels. problem.

Now our family's life can be improved.

Hey, big nephew, you should start counting! "

Duan Yanqing laughed and shook his head.

"Second Uncle, who are we with whom? What are you counting?"

Seeing that Duan Yanqing really couldn't count, Duan Yingchun got up to leave immediately.

Duan Yanqing sent him a long way before turning around and coming back humming a little tune, so much joy.

In the following two months, Duan Wuji practiced martial arts every day except for martial arts, from morning to late night, except for eating and feeding horses, he practiced martial arts every day.

After more than two months of day and night practice, Duan Wuji's martial arts has been significantly improved.

This morning, Duan Wuji was tired from practicing martial arts, and just wanted to go home to find a piece of bun to eat.

Suddenly, a chaotic sound of horseshoes came running from far and near.

"Brother Wuji, my brother saw you coming, brother, but I miss my brother to death."

Duan Wuji listened and looked around, and saw six war horses coming.

Running in the forefront is a bay red horse, and a person sits on the saddle bridge, with fiery red hair shining red under the light.

Duan Wuji recognized it at a glance, isn't this the red-haired spirit official Shan Tong Shan Xiongxin?
Duan Wuji was overjoyed to see him, he quickly ran a few steps towards Shan Xiongxin's horse.

When Shan Xiongxin saw it, he got off his horse immediately, grabbed Duan Wuji's hand and said, "Brother, how are you doing?"

Duan Wuji smiled and nodded. "Thanks to my brother, everything is fine. Brother, follow me into the house."

While leading the horse, Shan Xiongxin introduced several attendants to Duan Wuji one by one.

"Brother Wuban, these are some of my family members, this one is called Shan Fu, and he is the housekeeper of my Bali Erxian Village.

Shan Fu, this is my savior Duan Wuji, our brother Duan.You have to see clearly. "

Duan Wuji took a look, and saw that Bai Jing, who was in his 30s, had a slight black beard on his face.

He was a frail scholar who was dressed in green clothes all over his body.

When Duan Wuji saw him, he hurriedly bowed and saluted. "Brother Duan, Wuji has given you a gift. I beg you to take care of me if I don't take good care of it in the future."

Shan Fu laughed when he heard that. "Brother, who are we talking to? We didn't say anything, we didn't say anything."

Then, Shan Xiongxin introduced the four people behind to Duan Wuji one by one.

"These people are also my family members. This one is called Shanxiu, this one is called Danian, this one is called Danduan, and the fat guy behind him is called Shanqiuer."

Duan Wuji smiled and thought: What a bad name this is!

Duan Wuji took a few steps and greeted them one by one, then led them straight to the house.

The folks in that Duanjiazhuang all showed envy when they saw it.

"See, the Yanqing family has come to be an official. I think this kid is going to have shit luck, and he's going to develop. Hey, it's really hard to judge a person by his appearance. This person has good luck, and he can't be stopped."

"Hey, it has nothing to do with you being an official. Why are you envious?"

Duan Wuji didn't listen to these rumors, he led a group of people straight to the house.

As soon as he entered the yard, Duan Wuji shouted loudly: "Father, mother, come out quickly, our house has guests."
