Chapter Twenty-Three: Let's Play
Sima Jian's return this time can be said to be a return to his hometown. The few brothers around him www.biquge.info for the sake of the business alliance and the so-called alliance leader of the alliance, each of them was exhausted and busy. Naturally, there is no time to accompany him again. However, his brother-in-law Qi Yi equipped him with a whole team of guards, and the carriage and horses were bright, and he returned to Yishan Town in high spirits.
For the sake of the peace of the village, I can't take everyone back on the next journey. Sima Jian ordered everyone to wait in place, and only selected two henchmen who had been following him together, carrying heavy gifts, and returned to the valley over the mountains and mountains.
The small mountain village is no different from when it left two years ago. There are still a few huts and a few thin farmlands. The ginkgo trees at the entrance of the village are green and vibrant, as if they are welcoming the return of their loved ones. Under the shade of the trees, two or three children were chasing and playing with each other. Seeing Sima Jian, they all opened their eyes in a daze, not knowing who it was.
"Sima Gongzi is back!"
Soon, some villagers also discovered Sima Jian and his party. An enthusiastic cheer suddenly resounded throughout the village. This small village is so big, and communication basically depends on roaring. As soon as the roar came out, the villagers suddenly poured out of their houses. Although the number of people added up is not much, this is really a lot of movement.
The two guards watched in amazement as a large wave of villagers flocked to their adults like wolves seeing meat. And the adult really deserves to be an adult, I saw that the smile on his face did not change, his demeanor was still calm, and he opened the package smoothly, took out the gifts one by one and distributed them to everyone: "Aunt Seven, you are really in good spirits, you see, this is the hair oil I promised to bring you last time." Sixth uncle, this is an ointment for you, it should be very effective for your old cold legs. …… Ah, this kid is a little tiger head, he didn't recognize people when he saw it last time, tiger head, I'm your sword brother, you call me, this box of candy will be given to you, okay?"
"Brother Sword......
"That's good!" ......
The return of the eldest prince of Sima means that the whole village has meat to eat. What's more, he never forgets to bring back gifts to everyone every time, and he never fails to do so. So when he was away, the whole village missed him. Seeing him come back, everyone's attitude was also extraordinarily enthusiastic. After a while, after distributing the gifts, everyone did not disperse, so they hugged him and walked happily to the village chief's house. As for the two people who followed behind Sima Dagong......
"Ma Ma, there are still two Shu millet ...... there"
"Shh......h Don't look at it, these two people are so terrifying, maybe they are catching children, you follow closely, be careful not to be captured by them. ”
"Oh. ”
Two guards: "......"
Poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people!
When Sima Jian returned to his home, his parents had already greeted him outside the house. As soon as he saw the second elder, Sima Jian could no longer suppress his emotions, grabbed the bow and said excitedly: "Dad, mother, the unfilial son is back!"
"Good, good. Tears glistened in the village chief's old eyes. Trembling, he stretched out his hands to support his son's elbows and helped him up. The village chief's wife had already burst into tears, hugged her son's tall body, and cried: "My son ......"
"Duh, you mother-in-law, your son is fine, why are you crying?" the village chief glared and scolded. Standing on tiptoe and looking at the crowd for a while, he asked anxiously, "Jian'er, where is Die'er?"
"Yes, yes, and my poor butterfly! She, why isn't she here......?
Seeing that his parents' expressions were becoming frightened, Sima Jian hurriedly comforted: "Don't worry, my sister is very good! Let's let my son enter the house first, and then I'll slowly tell you two elders that it's okay?" He was afraid that just saying the word "very good" would not be able to dispel the second elder's doubts, so he directly threw a bombshell. Sure enough, when the village chief and the village chief's wife heard that their beloved daughter had found a good son-in-law, they immediately looked at each other and were dumbfounded. Where is the time to think nonsense?
Their baby daughter...... This is married?
"Dad, mother, why don't you see grandpa? grandpa, is his old man okay?"
"Your grandfather, he'...... Not very good, I'm afraid. Jian'er, it's not too late to talk about Die'er's affairs later, you better go and see the old man first. Your grandfather...... Time may be running out. ”
Sima Jian was stunned.
The old man is indeed very old. The originally ruddy face had now turned pale. A pair of cloudy eyes couldn't help but show a light of surprise when they saw their grandson. opened his mouth and called out almost with some difficulty: "Ah...... Ah Jian. ”
"Grandpa. Sima Jian held the hand that the old man stretched out towards him. His eyes were sour, and he wanted to cry. He took a deep breath and held back tears. The old man saw his discomfort and gently patted the back of his hand to comfort him.
"By the way, Jian'er, you haven't seen Ah Ling yet. Seeing that the atmosphere was dull, the village chief's wife changed the topic with a smile and said, "Thanks to Ah Ling, this child." You and your sister are not here, but she has been doing her best to take care of the old man. ”
Sima Jian thought for a while and said, "Thanks to her, she will do her filial piety for me and my sister...... Where's the Lingren?"
At this time, the curtain of the door was raised, and a slender girl walked in with a medicine bowl. It seems that I didn't expect so many people in the room, and I was a little surprised. One look at Sima Jian, and then surprised. shouted happily, "Brother Sword!"
Sima Jian saw that she was holding a full night of medicine in both hands, because of the excitement, her little hands trembled slightly, and some of them had been spilled on the back of her hands. The back of his hand was immediately red. He hurriedly reached out and took the medicine bowl, placed it firmly on the bedside, took out the handkerchief from his arms, waved her to approach, gently wiped the medicine on her hand for her, and said with a smile on his face: "Why are you so careless." Does it still hurt?"
Ah Ling shook her head vigorously, her little face was full of excitement, and she couldn't wait to look left and right, looking around. However, the room is so big, and it is clear how many people are inside. She looked around four or five times in disbelief, and then turned around with a puzzled look on her face, and looked at Sima Jian with her eyes open.
Sima Jian sighed softly and whispered, "Ah Die didn't come back......"
Ah Ling's face sank. With that little look, he almost felt like he was on pins and needles. Sima Jian only felt that his scalp was numb, and hurriedly explained with a smile: "Sister Ah Ling, Ah Die has a husband, so she can't come back casually." But she misses you very, very much. You see, she knew I was coming back, and she went out of her way to 'personally' pick out a gift for you. Saying "jingle bell", he took out the small bell that Ah Die found from his arms and shook it. A thin bell suddenly fluttered through the room.
Ah Ling really turned his anger into joy.
Sima Jian breathed a sigh of relief slightly. I thought to myself, it's okay, Ah Die confessed this thing, and I asked me to hand it over to you personally. It seems that she expected that I couldn't handle you little girl, so she specially put this aside to relieve me. Good sister, it's really hard for you!
Sima Jian untied the chain that tied the silver bell, bypassed Ah Ling's snow-white slender neck, and buckled it at the back of her neck. Ah Ling shook her head slightly, and the small bells wafted like the fragrance of flowers. She happily threw herself beside the elder's bed and boasted, "Grandpa, look, this is a gift from Adie." The old man laughed, stretched out his thin palm, and rubbed her hair.
The village chief's house is a big banquet again. This is a fixed project for Master Sima to return home, and the whole village is happy, needless to say. During this period, Ah Ling has been taking care of the elders and has never left for half a step. She lay on the edge of the bed, carefully mashed the boiled meat piece by piece with chopsticks, and slowly fed it to the old man. While feeding, he was still babbling childish words to relieve the old man's boredom. The old man was now unable to speak, but from time to time a word or two came out in response to her. Sima Jian stood by the door and watched the grandfather and grandson, who were closer than himself, standing for a long, long time......
"My lord, everyone is waiting for you, what are you doing standing there?" Sima Jian's guards have been helping everyone with their work for half a day, and they are already familiar with the villagers. The big guy has gone to the initial restraint and has dared to call them. So I saw that these two kept running errands and serving food, and they were three points more diligent than the second junior of the shop. It's easy to get a free time, and when I look up, I see my own adult standing there, and the look on his side face can't tell whether it is sad or gratified. I can't help but shout.
"......" Sima Jian turned his head and made a "silence" gesture. He glanced at the old man who had not been disturbed in the room at all, and walked downstairs lightly.
"Is there something wrong with you?"
Seeing the adults come down, the two guards grabbed his arms together, and one of them took him aside with half a drag and half a drag. Sima Jian was slightly surprised in his heart: these two people are mysterious, and their attitudes are very different from the past. What do you want to do?
"Hey, hey. That adult, we, want to tell you something......" The left guard spoke first, but before he could say anything, his face was red, and his shy expression was so strange that Sima Jianzhi couldn't help but shudder.
"My lord, you introduce Miss Ah Ling to us!" the right guard took the opportunity to steal the conversation. His eyes were shining and he was staring at Sima Jian. Full of anticipation, full of pink bubbles......
Sima Jian felt a chill all over his body. He shook off the bear's paws of the two of them violently, and said angrily: "Enough, you give me a little more suitable!" The two old men, and they are also ugly-looking, tiger-backed and bear-waisted old men, have such expressions on their faces, are they disgusting? It is simply unbearable! Fortunately, he has not eaten yet, otherwise he would really vomit.
"What do you want to do?"
"This ...... My lord, we didn't want to do anything, we just ...... I just want to get to know ......."
"My lord, it's only your family's tradition that is too good, one sister is so beautiful, and two sisters are so moving! I guess I can't find a third sister so outstanding in the whole world." ”
"Yes, yes, sir, look...... How about your brother-in-law?"
"Go, didn't you say that Miss Ah Ling would choose it herself?
Sima Jian: "......" hehe.
I haven't seen each other for two years, and Xiao Ah Ling has indeed grown from a thin yellow-haired girl to a slim little beauty. Recalls her appearance: her skin is like fine porcelain, her eyes are rippling, and her smile is not as bright and sharp as Ah Die's, but it has its own touching feelings. I have to say that it is really the eighteenth change of the female university. Sima Jian found out that the malnourished girl that day had really grown up now. Even his eyes lit up when he first saw him, not to mention the two hungry wolves in front of him?
The two hungry wolves were still arguing. Sima Jian snorted lightly, raised his leg and left. was immediately pulled back by one left and one right:
"Your Excellency, you haven't said anything yet, how is this?"
What a shame......
Sima Jian tugged at the corners of his mouth, and said "heh": "My 'brother' can't get the moon near the water, so it's up to you, with you?" Get out of here, let's play!"
