"It turns out that the emperor doesn't want you to go back, but thinks you can't go back?"
Li Guxin's team returning to his hometown was still walking slowly, specially picking the main road. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
But on this day there was a drizzle, and they turned their horses into carts.
The four of them sat in the car, the two children slept, and Lin Xiaojue and Li Guxin talked about the capital.
The questioner was naturally Li Guxin.
Lin Xiaojue said: "I hate the concubine so much, the emperor has long expected that he thought I would leave non-stop, after all, I am a habitual offender." ”
Yes, as soon as someone in the capital is sick, she will go out of the city for a while.
Li Guxin said: "Then when we go back, will the emperor hold a grudge?"
Look, the emperor is the emperor, no matter how good he is to her, they must always be on guard, this is the feeling of accompanying the king like a tiger, which is very unsteady.
Lin Xiaojue said: "Maybe, maybe not, I'm not sure, if it will, it won't be too intense, after all, the emperor can still distinguish right from wrong, the concubine's drug addiction is not caused by me, if you want to say no, he feels that he owes the concubine so much, he will always feel sorry, he is sorry, he will be angry with others." The tone was flat, no worries and no luck, as if talking about other people's business.
Li Guxin breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Xiaojue raised his eyebrows and said, "What did you think of again?"
"In the future, you don't have to enter the palace, complain, just let him complain. He was really happy, and in the end, his smile was bright and comfortable, like a stone in his heart had finally fallen to the ground.
Lin Xiaojue smiled, she said, when she resigned from the emperor, the emperor did not summon her, which means that their future intersection will be less and less, so little that there may not be.
Suddenly there was a jubilant cheer outside the car window.
Li Guxin hurriedly picked up the curtain.
In this not wide gap, Lin Xiaojue saw that there was a colorful bridge in the east, which was a rainbow after the rain and the sky was clear, and the breeze blew through the gap, with a fresh earthy smell, which made people feel uplifted and cheerful.
The trivial things passed one by one, and the sky was really clear.
It took a month to finally arrive at Li Guxin's hometown.
It's a small village in the countryside.
The field is open, a horse is flat, there are no mountains and forests around, it is the spring wheat growing season, all tender green wheat fields, which makes people refresh and fresh, rushing city life, here seems to slow down the pace suddenly.
The village was like a walled city, except that there were no walls, four roads were horizontal, and seven dirt roads were erected. There are more than 200 households, and it is a large village.
Everyone was dressed in simple clothes and did not reveal their identities, but so many people suddenly came to a small village, all dressed well, and there were more than a dozen big men in the team who had plastic surgery, which made the honest villagers a little flustered.
When Lin Xiaojue and the others entered the village, they saw that everyone was avoiding, but every household had a head sticking out from the crack in the door.
Li Guxin has never been here, but he found it according to the towering description, and he does not know where his home is, nor who the village chief is.
By guess, I found the fourth house on the third road, which was in the middle of the village.
The straw hut at the top of the house was bald, revealing red pine rafters the thickness of the bowl.
The yard is overgrown with weeds, and it looks like it hasn't been inhabited for a long time.
The house next to it was even more desolate, with most of the gables down.
Gao Xuan once said that the neighbor was a widow grandmother who raised Gao Xuan, and Gao Xuan did not leave the village until she died.
There are no people in both houses, and that's it.
However, it is still up to to be seen which of these two is exactly.
Lin Xiaojue and Li Guxin took the guards into the big courtyard, otherwise they couldn't open it.
I was worried about which door was the door, and a voice suddenly sounded at the door of the door, which had no gate.
"Ladies and gentlemen, are you here to look for relatives or are you passing by?"
Where did an old man who looked like he was in his fifties standing, he was smiling and constantly giving up his hands to the people in the courtyard, as if he was praying for something, and the description was very cramped.
But he's really not polite, is he?
Lin Xiaojue and Li Guxin both knew that the old man was afraid that they would be unfavorable to the village.
Li Guxin returned the salute and called the uncle: "What do you call it?"
The old man said, "Little Qi Wensheng, the uncle can be called the little old Qi, and the small one is the village in this village." ”
It turned out to be the village chief.
The head of a village is very prestigious in the village, and the villagers must call him Qi Lao, not Lao Qi.
Li Guxin hurriedly said: "It turned out to be Qi Lao, under Li Guxin, my father's name is Li Mingju, I don't know if you can recognize it." ”
The old man was stunned for a moment, "Li Mingju?" His eyes widened, it was a kind of shock after hearing the name of an acquaintance, and this acquaintance must still be remembered by him.
Li Guxin said, "Exactly, my father has died, and I will bury my father in the next township." ”
"Really passed away?" The old man obviously believed Li Guxin's words, and looked pity.
Then he raised his head and looked at Li Guxin again, and slowly smiled: "Don't say it, it's really like, it's just that we don't know that Mingju still has a son, he and Yu Niang disappeared twenty-five years ago, and they never came back." ”
Being able to remember the time so clearly shows that this person is genuinely concerned about his parents.
Li Guxin gave a deep salute to express his feelings.
Since you have found the right one, they are all from the same village, and the next thing is much easier.
The courtyard where they stood was the ancestral home of the Li family.
After the tower, there was no one to live in, no one to repair, the house fell into disrepair, and that's it.
Qi Lao wanted to help Li Guxin arrange a place to live, but there were too many of them in their group, and it was impossible to live together.
Li Guxin turned back to ask Lin Xiaojue's opinion.
At this time, Qi Lao found out that there was a woman and two children who came back with Li Guxin.
With a pleased smile on his face, he said, "Is this your daughter-in-law and child? ”
Lin Xiaojue hadn't saluted anyone yet, and Wang Zhizhi, who was holding her left hand, said, "This is my aunt." ”
As soon as the words fell, Zhou Ruolin on the right hand said, "My aunt and uncle haven't married yet." ”
Qi Lao's face was a little embarrassed.
The corners of Li Guxin's mouth twitched, obviously, he didn't look like he was seventeen or eighteen years old.
Li Guxin hurriedly explained: "I have already made a marriage, come back this time and bury my parents together." ”
If you have to participate in the burial of your ancestors, this daughter-in-law will not be able to run.
And people are neatly dressed, and there are subordinates who can instruct, they must be mixing well, and Qi Lao showed a pleased smile on his face.
After everyone cleared up the relationship, Lin Xiaojue left the guards to clean up the house.
There were many of them, and the village chief was to take care of them, and the materials were easy to gather, and they also found a lot of helpers, and they repaired the roof in one afternoon.
Simply clean it again, and the house will be ownery.
When everyone was busy, Li Guxin followed the village chief and went door to door to meet the villagers.
Li Guxin has suffered a lot, never bullied others, and it is the hometown of his parents, he hopes to know more, every family he visits is very sincere, and he asks himself to remember.
In the face of such a humble gentleman and an official mouth, the villagers felt both honored and curious.
In front of him, someone asked him what he was doing now.
Since he decided to come back, some things can't be avoided, Li Guxin told Qi Lao what happened to him, and Qi Lao told everyone to listen, but he didn't say anything about his official position and title.
Li Mingju is the only talent in the village, and everyone has a deep affection for him, so when they heard what Fang did it, everyone's angry teeth itched, and the sentimental people even shed tears.
Li Guxin comforted them: "The Fang clan has already subdued the Fa, waiting to be beheaded." ”
Everyone felt that they had spit out a bad breath again, and they would laugh again.
The folk customs are simple and the local accent is sincere, this is where my parents have lived for more than ten years.
Li Guxin had a good impression of the villagers, so he walked a lot of homes.
After visiting like this, it was dark, and Qi Lao sent Li Guxin back to Li's house.
The Li family's house is also packed up and can be lived.
But he couldn't let go of more than 20 guards, Qi Lao promised to help them find a place to live, but the guards had an account, and finally Lin Xiaojue decided to let them camp at the entrance of the village without disturbing the villagers.
However, eating and drinking still have to trouble Qi Lao to help prepare.
Li Guxin stuffed Qi Lao with money, and Qi Lao and the guards left.
Li Guxin and Lin Xiaojue stayed with their two children, and tonight, they will live in their own home.
Lin Xiaojue had already bought rice and vegetables at the neighbor's house and cooked them himself at night.
When the meal was served, Li Guxin asked curiously, "Didn't the neighbors inquire about your family history?"
After all, they can take so many people home, as well as horses and carts, although they do not reveal their identity, but at a glance, people know that they are either rich or expensive, how can such people still cook by themselves, just like they are used to living in the countryside.
In fact, Lin Xiaojue was already very familiar with rural life, and when he was a child, he went to live in the countryside with his mother for a period of time, and helped people see a doctor by the way.
She looked at Li Guxin and shook her head with a smile: "No one dares to ask." ”
She has a cold temperament, so she naturally adds a defense to herself, and will avoid a lot of unnecessary disturbances.
Lan Junyuan said: "Behind the meeting." ”
But that's not something they should worry about, even if they return to their hometown, they don't want to show all their family wealth to others, this is what they discussed before they entered the village, and everything is under control.
