After saying this, he saw that it was still early. It was only 5 or 6 o'clock, and it was still bright outside. (It usually starts to get dark around 8:30 am here, and the curfew on the streets is around 10 am.)）
"It's still early. Shall we embroider that handkerchief?”My mother asked me.
"Okay!" Then let's go, I'll help you cut the thread.”
"Then let's go!" Embroider this handkerchief in the colors you choose and let your father choose when he comes back. How about that?”
"Alright!"
I went back to the embroidery room and continued to cut the thread while my mother continued to embroider.
......
Fu Liangcheng and the soldiers assigned to him came to the eastern district. This place was not far from the Wang family's residence, so they chose this area to start logging in.
Unknowingly, he had already arrived at the Wang family's residence.
Fu Liangcheng knocked on the door.”
"Coming, coming." Aunt Ge answered as she opened the door.
"Yo, son-in-law, are you here to check the household registration?"？”
Fu Liangcheng: " Yes, didn't Father find me a public position? It's the first day I'm going, and I'm in time to check my household registration. Let's go in and talk."”As he spoke, he brought a few soldiers into the courtyard.
Aunt Ge: " Oh, is that so? I'll go call the boss and the others out!”With that, he went into the main courtyard to call for help.
"This is your father-in-law's house?" The captain asked.
"That's right! You might even know my father-in-law! He would let his brothers take a look later. There were no outsiders.
Only my brother-in-law's wife's family has come to seek refuge.”
"Don't worry, we're not bandits. We'll leave after taking a look.”the leader replied.
"Liangcheng, are you here to check the household registration?”The old man came out first.
Fu Liangcheng: " That's right, Dad. This is our city guard. He's accompanying us to visit the various houses. There have been many refugees and people who have come to seek refuge with their relatives and friends recently. The higher-ups want us to register them and verify their household registration. They're afraid that there will be trouble.”
"Oh, of course, of course. I'll help you call everyone out later!”After saying that, the old man went to the two courtyards to call for help.
"Brothers, there are a lot of people in our house recently. There's only this little place. Why don't we go out?”Fu Liangcheng told the soldiers that there were only a dozen people standing in the courtyard. If they called them out again, they would have nowhere to stand.
"You guys wait at the door." The team leader saw that the small courtyard was not big. If more people came, it would be too crowded. He asked most of the people to go out, leaving only four people to observe if there were any suspicious people.
After a while, they came out to help.
Fu Liangcheng: " Father, I've already remembered everyone in our family. Let's get to know our sister-in-law's family. I don't know some of them yet!"”
"Third Bro, introduce us to each other.”Old Master said to his youngest son.
"Alright, this is my father-in-law Liu Dazhu and my mother-in-law Liu Lishi.
Everyone is here." Wang Chenghai introduced his relatives and their relationships.
Fu Liangcheng: " Alright, I've remembered everything. Thank you for your hard work."
Dad, I'm almost done. I still have to go to the next shop. Then we'll leave first!”
"Alright, alright, then everyone can go back! Look, I was in a hurry today and didn't treat everyone to a cup of tea. When I'm not busy, I'll ask Liangcheng to bring you over for tea!”The old man said politely to the soldiers.
Although everyone knew that this was a polite remark, they still enjoyed it because almost everyone knew this old man! That was the relative of the former magistrate, and he was now a capital official!
After visiting many places and seeing that it was getting late, everyone returned to the yamen and put away the materials they were in charge of. The person in charge of the suspicious area stayed behind to cooperate with them and sort out the situation. The others went home.
Fu Liangcheng's area was fine. He left the yamen with everyone and headed home.
......
"Wife, Little Jia, I'm back!”Fu Liangcheng called out to the people inside.
"Father, you're back. Why are you so late?”I ran out of the embroidery room.
"It's already midnight. Why are you only back now? Are you tired?" My mother also came out from the embroidery room.
"Sigh! Don't mention it. Today, the higher-ups suddenly arranged for us to go down and check the registration.
I'll tell you later. I'll eat first. I'm starving!”My father said.
"The food is still warm in the pot. See if it's still hot. If it's not, why don't you heat it up before eating?”My mother said.
"No need. How can it be cold in this hot weather? Besides, I'm starving.”Then, she went to the kitchen.
We followed him in and placed the food on the table. My father washed his hands and face and returned to the dining table. He looked at the food and said,"Why is the dish so light today? Mother didn't say to add some meat.”
My mother: " Don't mention it. I just came back today, and sister-in-law came over. Sigh!" None of them are in the mood to eat!"
"What's wrong?" What happened?"
"Your sister is back with the child. You can eat first. We'll talk about it tonight."”
I saw that the atmosphere was a little heavy. While Dad was eating, he ran to the embroidery room and took the handkerchief that we had made to prevent Su embroidery. It was just to ease the atmosphere.
Me: " Dad, look, do you like them? Which one do you like?”I placed the handkerchief in front of my father and spread it out in the brightest direction.
My father swallowed a mouthful of rice and said,"What? Why are you in such a hurry to show me? It won't work later!" As she spoke, she looked at the embroidered handkerchief I brought over with a smile.
My mother: " This child, why are you in such a hurry? Your father is eating. You can look at it after eating. Your father won't run away!”
I chuckled, thinking to myself, I'm just trying to ease the atmosphere. But I can't say it. Just smile!
"Aiya, this is really beautiful. I've never seen a handkerchief more beautiful than this! Is this for me? Did you buy it or did you embroider it?" My father said in surprise.
"My mother and I embroidered this together in the afternoon. Father, which one looks better?"”
My father: " It's all good, it's all good. Hur hur, my daughter can embroider? Which part of it was embroidered by you? Point it out for father to see."
I looked at my mother awkwardly.
"Hehe, your daughter didn't embroider a single needle. However, this picture was drawn by your daughter. The idea was given by your daughter. This thread was the color that your daughter found. Also, don't underestimate this thread. This thread is made by splitting a thread into a thinner thread.”My mother praised me as she introduced me.
Hearing my mother's praise, I felt embarrassed.
My father: My daughter is really amazing. I'll take a good look at her after dinner.”
After dinner, the family of three packed up and went to the central room.
"Dad, which one do you like more?"”
My father took the two pictures, which were the same but had different colors, and looked at them carefully."This bean green is not bad. It's suitable for my age. Isn't this tender green a little too bright? It would be more suitable if he was a scholar or a scholar.”
