Crossing the Unknown Country

Chapter 219 Su He’s Masters Are Here

They followed the master back home and looked at the magnificent house and the large yard. This was their home from now on, and they regarded it as their home from the bottom of their hearts. When they saw the lady and the old master, they knew that this was the right house. They were all so kind and gentle, and spoke to them in a friendly manner. They knew that as long as they did not make any mistakes, they could live here for a long time.

The four people kowtowed to the two old people sincerely to thank them. They would be the servants of this family from now on, and also the members of this family. They were really grateful to be taken in by them. This was a good family, and they did not speak ill of them just because they were servants.

The lady took them to the backyard and arranged everything for them. Su Dapeng and Su Dazhu lived with Liu Meng. The big kang was spacious and comfortable enough for three people to sleep on. The three young men were just right for company, and they would watch the workshop together at night.

Meng Qiang and his wife lived in the guest room of the third courtyard, so that all three courtyards could be occupied and it was convenient for cleaning and care. They all worked in the workshop of the second courtyard, so that everyone was together.

The next day after they came back, three people came with Wang Xiaohu's letter in the afternoon. They were all in their thirties, one of them was Zhang Wanqiang who had a limp, one was Hu Changxing who couldn't straighten his arm, and the other was Zheng Hailin who was blind in one eye. The three of them looked very tough, and without much nonsense, they took their household registration and gave it directly to Su He's father along with the letter.

When Su He's father saw that they were all transferred from military status to civilian status, he knew that they were soldiers from the battlefield. Wang Xiaohu had also mentioned this in advance, and Su He's father admired them very much, so he had no objection and stayed.

Su He's father said to them, "I will take care of your household registration for now, so you can live here without worry. The food may not be good, but you will definitely be well fed. If there are ready-made clothes, try them first. If they don't fit, ask Aunt An and Aunt Su to make new ones for you. The children will be in your care from now on, so train them well."

The three of them nodded and agreed: "Don't worry, this is what we are here to do."

"We can also do other things at home. Even though we have some disabilities, it doesn't hinder our work at all."

"We don't eat for free, just tell us what to do."

Their words were generous and magnanimous, and Su He was happy to hear them. He smiled and replied to them: "Masters, you just do your best. We have a lot of things to do at home. But the main task is to train us, so that we can protect our families when war comes, and strengthen our bodies in our spare time."

Zheng Hailin smiled and said, "It's great that I can protect my family during wartime and keep fit during leisure time. Good! Good! Good!"

The three of them smiled at each other. Wang Xiaohu had asked them to come to a good family, so they could stay there peacefully. For those who had crawled out of the dead, what they feared most was troubling others. That was why they would rather stay in the border town than go back to their hometown.

I was a soldier when I was young and left my hometown. At this age, I don't want to go back and cause trouble for my family. If I am fine, I can go home to marry and have children and live a stable life. But who would be willing to marry them? It's better to live the rest of my life alone in the border town!

When their former boss Wang Xiaohu approached them and said there was an opportunity for him to be a master and teach children martial arts, they couldn't refuse. This was an opportunity for them and they wanted to come and take a look.

It's good to look at this family. They speak gently and politely, and there is no discrimination in their eyes. This is enough for them. No matter where you are, you can only eat a bowl of rice. It's better to rely on your own ability to make a living here.

The little girl looked good, and her gestures showed that she had practiced. They could tell at a glance. This family was full of energy, at least they usually exercised, and they liked this environment.
