Boss, He’s Becoming a Father

Chapter 11: The Prodigal Son (11)

     

    Yachai has already brought a long team, but the team is full of reluctant people at this time. When I meet someone like Shao Dabao, I naturally feel shocked.

    "Good boy, don't let down your father's expectations!" After the yacha finished speaking, he completely ignored Shao Dabao's struggle and sent him directly into the long corvée.

    Even if Shao Dabao was reluctant, there were people following him left and right, he just wanted to run away, but there were so many eyes staring at him, and there was no way he could only follow the team and move on .

    When he was about to leave, Shao Dabao looked back, but until the gate of Qingzhou Fucheng disappeared from sight, he did not wait for any turning point.

    "Young man, this is your first time serving corvée?" Suddenly an old man came up to him and asked.

    Shao Dabao nodded blankly.

    The previous Shao family scene, the old man had already watched the whole process, so he had a good impression of Shao Dabao and said, "It's normal to feel homesick when you are so far away from home for the first time."

    Shao Dabao was not so reluctant to give up his family as the old man thought, he just didn't want to suffer, so he said, "I know nothing."

     "Don't worry, we will teach you, you are a filial child, you will learn quickly."

    filial children are liked by everyone. They don't know Shao Dabao's past.

    Shao Dabao was about to blurt out his accusation against Shao Yu when he was immediately stuck in his throat because of this sentence of filial piety, so he could only answer vaguely.

    Although the place where the river embankment was built is within the territory of Qingzhou Prefecture, Qingzhou Prefecture is vast, so it took a whole day to reach the section of the canal embankment that was being built.

    There are many mountains and waters in Qingzhou Prefecture, so it is not easy to travel all the way for a day.

    Shao Dabao even felt that he had walked more roads today than he had walked in the first half of his life.

    At first, he wanted to remember the road well, and he planned to run away when he couldn't bear the corvée.

    However, after walking all day, Shao Dabao was so tired that his legs were broken, and he was full of exhaustion. How could he still remember these complicated mountain roads.

    "Young man, you don't seem to have suffered at home?" Old Man Zheng asked with some doubts.

     

    Shao Dabao nodded, he only felt that he had no strength to speak, his legs seemed to be filled with lead, and he couldn't move at all. Every step he took, he felt that he was suffering What a terrible torture.

    The team set off in the morning and ate all day long, Shao Dabao was very hungry.

    Tired and hungry, Shao Dabao actually felt that the days when he was tossed by Shao Yu at home were as far away as a blessing nest.

    Old man Zheng frowned, but out of his habitual love for the junior, he pulled him to continue walking.

    I don't know why, being pulled by the old man's calloused hands and walking forward, Shao Dabao felt a sense of reliability in his heart. He looked at the old man's figure and immediately thought of his father .

    Not the ruthless father now, but the father who helped him with everything in the past.

    The first time he sent him to the school, he was so nervous now, his father's hands were full of calluses, and he took him into the school step by step.

    Nowadays, the father hates the son, and the son hates the father.

    And the root of all this is gambling, gambling to the point of bankruptcy, gambling to lose my sister.

    Shao Dabao recalled and couldn't help but touched the severed finger on his hand. He seemed to be unable to believe that the person who gambled red-eyed was himself. However, the family can also pay the fines for corvée, instead of making him suffer like he is now.

     

    Shao Dabao wanted to say something polite, but because he rarely dealt with people, he didn't know what to say for a while.

    Old man Zheng's words were full of wistfulness: "It's nice to be young, an elderly person like me, I don't know when I just fell asleep and died."

    Life is seventy years old.

    The old man is in his sixties this year. He only feels that his days are coming to an end. The corvée service is heavy. It is estimated that on the night of his service, he will die without any relief. .

    Shao Dabao's heart shuddered when he heard it. Although he only had a brief contact with old man Zheng, he still had a lot of goodwill towards this old man.

    Old man Zheng said again: "It's still good luck for your father, although he is old, but with your filial son, I can't do it. The children in the family are not good enough and don't want to come here."

    Shao Dabao heard a sudden shock, he didn't come to this place on his own initiative, and Old Man Zheng was indeed because of the children at home.

    He thought about how his father served corvée in the past, is it like Old Man Zheng, because the children in the family are unwilling, so he can only drag his old body here?

    Did the father at that time also envied others like Old Man Zheng?

    Shao Dabao dare not continue to think about it.

    Until it got dark, the team finally reached their destination.

    Shao Dabao looked left and right, this was a camp with several rows of simple houses, but he did not see the shadow of the canal.

    Looking to know his concerns, Old Man Zheng smiled and said, "The canal is still a mile away."

    Shao Dabao asked the old man in surprise, "Have you been here before?"

    The old man nodded with a smile and said, "This canal dam has to be repaired every few years, and it is always repaired."

    "Can't be repaired? Then why haven't I heard of the flood in recent years?" Shao Dabao wondered.

    "If it's not repaired, the affected villages and towns are all nearby. The mountains and roads in the city are high, and it's normal to hear less in the past." Go aside.

    Shao Dabao took the dinner handed over by the officer, two small nests, and a bowl of clear porridge that can be fished.

    "Is there only so much to eat?" Shao Dabao asked with some dissatisfaction.

    He walked all day today and was very hungry. If only this was enough to eat, he probably wouldn't even be half full.

      giggling?"

    With this push, most of the bowl of porridge was thrown out, and the old man Zheng beside him felt a little distressed.

    He hurriedly supported Shao Dabao and said, "You child, how can you face the messengers."

    Shao Dabao was stunned when he heard the words, and said, "How can you be full with such a little food?"

    "It's the only way to be full." Old Man Zheng said helplessly, he only thought that Shao Dabao had experienced these things for the first time, so he didn't have the slightest experience, so he said: "We are here, life and death can be In their hands, if you offend them, it will be difficult in the future, you should be more careful."

    When Shao Dabao heard this, he was stunned. He wanted to continue to say something, but Old Man Zheng had already turned his head and started to compensate the policeman.

    "You old man is quite good." The police let it go.

    After compensating, Old Man Zheng didn't have any psychological burden, so he started to snort and ate, completely forgetting how unhappy he was when compensating just now.

    "Why do you want to pay for me?" Shao Dabao suddenly asked.
