readx Zhang Huan bought a pound of sugar, twenty pounds of rice, and some small items for fishing boats at Shidao Fanji Grocery Store.
After touching the remaining five taels of silver in his arms, Zhang Huan smiled and straightened his waist.
Go to your fishing village.
Along the way, Zhang Huan couldn't help but sigh that the desolate Shidao Bay where his home was located had changed so much.
There was a wide hard road under his feet, and there were big tile-roofed houses along the road.
People of all kinds came and went constantly, and his own fishing village also appeared.
Many families, including Zhang Huan's family, have renovated their original thatched cottages.
Zhang Huan stood outside his house and cracked his lips happily, straightening his newly-issued jersey.
Zhang Huan pushed away his family's door.
"Huan'er," Zhang Wu shed tears immediately when she saw her son.
Putting down the needle and thread in his hand, he took Zhang Huan's hand and looked at it carefully.
Zhang Huan was wearing a short blue dress, with his hair tied up, a waist knife at his waist, and thin-soled boots.
He looked much more energetic.
The body is stronger, but the face is darker.
"Mom, don't cry, I'm back now."
Zhang Huan smiled with his white teeth, and helped Zhang Wu sit down with warmth in his heart.
"Mom just misses you.
You have been gone for a few months, and she is thinking a lot about you."
Mrs.
Zhang Wu wiped away her tears and looked at her son but couldn't get enough of him.
"Yu Qiang, who is also serving in the fleet, has already gone home.
It's not like you who haven't come back even once.
Mom always feels uneasy."
"Mom, it's different.
Yu Qiang served as a soldier on the Fu Ship, and I served as a soldier on the new-style sailing ship.
We are not familiar with the sailing ship, so we didn't have a holiday.
We have been familiar with the sailing ship these days."
Zhang Huan explained.
The difference between him and Yu Qiang is, of course, that he sailed with the fleet and fought a battle with the red-haired thief, not to mention it, so as not to worry my mother.
Originally, my mother didn't agree with her becoming a soldier, but it was my father's idea.
In a word, I didn't want my son to be stuck in a fishing village fishing for the rest of his life, so my mother reluctantly agreed.
"Where are the family members?"
It's not surprising that the father is not here.
After all, as long as the weather permits, the fishing boats go out to sea to fish.
However, the eleven-year-old sister and the eight-year-old brother are not at home.
"We have gone to school.
What is junior primary school?
All boys and girls have to go.
If you don't go, you will be punished.
No, the two naughty ones have gone.
Fortunately, there is no charge for the children to go to school, and they will be given a meal at noon.
Rice."
When my mother mentioned this, she felt much better.
In this era of Ming Dynasty, literacy was a luxury.
Not to mention scientific examination, just literacy.

The future of the children may be different.
After all, more than 90% of people in Ming Dynasty were Illiterate people who can't read.
"Master Zhao has really done a great thing since he came here."
"It's not just that.
After Mr.
Zhao came, our Shidao has changed a lot.
Our family has enough to eat, and I have to serve as a soldier to feed myself."
"That's right, your father often said that Mr.
Zhao is a living Bodhisattva who saves people in distress.
He has saved tens of thousands of Liao people, and our family's livelihood has become much better."
Mrs.
Zhang Wu also understood where the changes in the family came from.
"Mom, this is five taels of silver.
You keep it and help supplement household expenses."
Zhang Huan took out five taels of silver and put it on the kang.
"Huan'er, why are there so many?"
Zhang Wu was stunned.
When my son left to join the army, he agreed to give him one tael of silver a month.
In her opinion, her son would have to spend some money while away from home.
"Mom, now I am in charge of people.
I know some words and can sail the ship well.
The superior officer ordered me to be the deputy boatswain.
I get a salary of one and a half taels of silver a month.
There are also rewards for going to sea.
Look, I bought it.
Order rice and sugar," Zhang Huan was also quite proud.
It was only right to go out as an errand.
Dad still has a vision.
What's the good of being trapped in this fishing village?
The only way out for a man is to follow the adults.
"Really, my son is going to be successful."
Zhang Wu was in a daze for a moment and had to digest the news for a while.
What parent doesn't want their children to have a good future.
In the evening, the house was very lively.
Several children came home, and dad also returned from sea.
Mrs.
Zhang Wu bought some meat and cooked some fresh sea fish.
The family had a lively meal and the two of them had a good time.
After a drink, the whole family had a great time together.
Qian Er also returned home, but his home was in a refugee camp.
As he approached his home, Qian Er could not find his home for a while, because most of the houses in the refugee camp had been built.
Although they were thatched houses, they were still houses after all.
It's no longer a den.
So, Qian Er was a little bit sad.
After asking around, he finally found the door of his house and looked at the yellow adobe house.

Qian Er hesitantly opened the door and saw his father knocking on a chair.
He saw his second son standing there.
I was stunned at the door, then a look of surprise appeared on my face.
My second son hadn't been home for several months.
He spent the Spring Festival outside.
"Dad, my son wishes you well."
Qian Er knelt down and kowtowed to his father.
"Okay, second son, it will be good to come back, it will be good to come back."
Father Qian helped his son up with tears.
Since his wife, eldest son, daughter-in-law, and grandson died tragically in Liaodong, the old man was very concerned about his two remaining sons and granddaughters. , now, the old man’s biggest wish is to reunite with his family and live a peaceful life.
However, he couldn't block his son's future.
After all, he was getting old and his son still had a long life.
He couldn't be trapped in the refugee camp forever.
Therefore, the second son wanted to serve as a soldier and feed himself, so the old man heartily agreed.
Fortunately, the second son is a navy man, so the danger is less, but the wind and waves are scary.
Whenever there is a storm in Shidao Bay, the old man will be worried.
Today, the second son finally came back safely, and the old money man was very relieved.
Qian Er took out the candy he bought for his niece, "Dad, here's Xiaoya."
"Oh, Xiaoya went to school.
Mr.
Zhao didn't know what to think.
The girl also had to go to school.
If she didn't go, she would be punished, so he had to let her go.
Fortunately, Xiaoya liked it very much.
She said there were many children in the school.
It's fun.
It doesn't cost anything, and we'll provide you with a meal, so let her go."
The father rambled.
"Dad, where is the third brother?
When will he come back?"
Qian San asked.
"Your third brother is busy right now.
There are a lot of things ordered by the Lord right now.
Your third brother has to work overtime every day at the Jianghu camp and doesn't come back until very late.
However, he also makes a lot of money.
Your brother estimates that he will have two taels this month.
It's a lot of silver.
It used to be one or two silver, but this has doubled."
The old man became happy when he mentioned this.
"Dad, there are five taels of silver here, please keep it."
Qian Er took out five taels of silver.
"Er'er, you've saved this much money in the past few months, so you'd better save some."
Dad said.
"Dad, there is a reward for our voyage.
I still have three taels of silver here."

Qian Er did not dare to say that he was rewarded by Lord Zhao Lie for seeing the battle formation, fearing that the old man would be worried.
"Okay, okay, let's save some money and build a better brick house next autumn."
The old man took the money and looked forward to the future.
"You and the third child are not young anymore.
Let's build a bigger house so that we can get a wife for you."
This is the old man's biggest wish at the moment.
After all, Xiaoya is just a granddaughter.
The old man is looking forward to the day he has a grandson.
Coming.
At the end of the evening, Qian San returned home in awe of stars and moonlight.
He was pleasantly surprised to find that his whole family was reunited today.
His second brother, who was serving in the navy, came home.
What a surprise.
The two brothers hadn't eaten together for a long time.
They had a good drink this time.
One of them talked about all kinds of things he had seen at sea, including whales, typhoons, and Xiyi people.
Qian San was stunned for a while while Qian Er was also stunned.
From his younger brother, he learned about the origin of the armaments on his ship, and also learned that his younger brother worked overtime and worked harder than him, and the two of them ended up very drunk.
However, after Qian Er sobered up the next day, he felt something was wrong.
"Dad, third brother, don't tell outsiders about our army's expedition.
This is what the captain and navy commander Qian Dingzhu Wan ordered.
We dare not violate it.
If it is leaked, I will be punished with hard labor, and my family will also suffer.
Implicated, when there is no external income, our family will have to go to the northwest again," Qian Er said seriously.
Qian Daddy and Qian San hurriedly agreed, joking about how they would live without their income.
They were so busy answering that they would never let it out.
The scene of soldiers returning home for reunion was played out in many places on Shidao.
Of course, it was necessary to warn family members not to spread the word.
However, more soldiers no longer had homes, and I was left alone to watch with envy as my brothers who had families returned home to reunite.
Fortunately, Mr.
Zhao did not forget them and gave them extra meals, which at least comforted them.
The navy officers and soldiers rested for three days and regrouped for training.
They understood that the time to go to sea might be near.
