Chapter 231: Reunion after a long absence

Murong Huaide lowered his head and kissed his wife on the forehead, and said with a smile, "I chose the name indiscriminately and called this big island a labyrinth island. Now it sounds like Taoyuan Island is more smooth and implicit, I have to study more in the future to succeed, otherwise I can't make money, and my knowledge will be compared to my daughter-in-law, wouldn't it be useless. ”

How could Dong Rong not know that her husband coaxed herself to rejoice, her heart was naturally very sweet, and the husband and wife snuggled up to each other and stood at the bow of the boat for a long time to enjoy the fog and then went into the cabin to rest.

In this way, the big ship drove in the fog for more than half a day before finally seeing a little light.

The fog on the side of the ship began to thin out, and it was gradually possible to make out the outline of a mountain in the distance. Everyone crowded the bow of the boat excitedly, craned their necks and looked around.

Soon, after avoiding two or three huge eddies, the ship finally sailed out of the fog. The island in the distance also reveals its true face

It is really as Murong Huaide said in the carriage at the beginning, this is a super island. There are mountains on the island, strange rocks, and steep cliffs. There is a spring on the mountain, which gathers into a river, rushes down, and looks like a jade belt from afar. There are large areas of fertile plains at the foot of the mountain, which are enough to reclaim thousands of acres of fertile land. Between the plains and the mountains are the well-built stone houses, faintly surrounding the city, guarding a large courtyard in the center, which is very imposing.

The sunset shone obliquely on the island, covering the mountains and rivers and plains, and the houses were covered with a layer of orange tulle, which was really beautiful.

Everyone was stunned, and Gardi couldn't help but shout, "Father-in-law, mother, are we going to live here in the future, it's amazing!" ”

Zizhu also shouted happily, "Madam, ma'am, is this a new home?" It's so beautiful, it's better than the Four Seasons Garden! ”

Yun Rui happily climbed directly onto the mast and waved at the island loudly. The people on the island also noticed the arrival of the big ship, and they ran out of the stone houses and rushed to the beach to welcome them.

Finally, the big boat docked next to the trestle bridge that was very far away into the sea, and the boss of the Chen family personally set up a gangplank to invite everyone to get off the boat.

Dong Rong was about to lift the corners of her skirt, but Murong Huaide bent down and hugged her and jumped down. The crowd surrounding the seaside was frightened and exclaimed, but before they could speak, Murong Huaide had already crossed the trestle bridge with Dong Rong in his arms.

Mrs. Cao staggered forward, hugged Dong Rong and cried, "You stupid daughter-in-law, you finally came back safely!" Why didn't you hide at that time, what did you do when you ran out to save us two old immortals? In case of losing their lives, what will happen to the three children, and how will we explain to the pillars? ”

Aunt Cao also cried and took Dong Rong's hand to check, nagging in her mouth, "How can this child be so thin that there are only a handful of bones left, but he has suffered a lot." ”

Dong Rong saw her familiar relatives at first glance, and her tears kept flowing. She hugged Mrs. Cao, hugged Aunt Cao, and comforted the two old ladies, "Mother, aunt, don't worry about me, I haven't suffered anything." It's even a matter of why you suddenly moved here, are you still used to living there, and is there anything uncomfortable about your body? ”

Mrs. Cao wiped her tears and responded, "Okay, we're all fine." We are all happy to live in the north all our lives, and to be able to live in the sea when we are old. Besides, there is everything on this island, and it is no different from home. ”

Dong Rong had to say anything more, Yang Wanyin, Second Sister Cao, Du Juan, and Meihua also squeezed in front of her and cried. She inevitably comforted her again, and finally gave Old Man Cao and Dong Xiucai a gift.

Old man Cao is leading people to reclaim the fields these days, although he has a lot of tan, but his complexion is excellent, and he has the posture of rejuvenation. Dong Xiucai also brought together seven or eight children on the island and started to be Mr. Enlightenment again, occasionally pondering a few poems against the sea in his spare time, or splashing ink to paint, and his life was also very comfortable.

Now that the two old men saw Dong Rong return safely, they were even more relieved, and they asked her to hurry home to see the child.

Dong Rong was already so anxious that she couldn't wait for wings to grow under her ribs. Everyone also understood her feelings, and talked about the aftermath while taking her back. Dong Rong responded casually, and finally looked forward to the stone house group, and then walked into the courtyard, and the three nurses in the main room hugged the three children when they heard the sound and welcomed them out.

Although they have only been separated for less than three months, the child is forgetful, and Brother Qi, Brother Ming, and Chenxi don't remember their mother's appearance. The three children looked curiously at the crowd that poured in, all of them hugged the nurse's neck, and faintly seemed to be a little guarded.

Dong Rong looked at the three little faces that she had thought about thousands of times day and night, and the tears that had just stopped flowed out again. She ran to her, hugged them one by one, kissed them and kissed them, and her tears rubbed the children's faces, causing them to cry.

Dong Rong hurriedly coaxed, but the tears couldn't be stopped, and finally the mother and son hugged each other and cried loudly.

Murong Huaide then came in, and when he saw his wife and children like this, his heart ached and he was ashamed. Let his wife and children endure the danger of such separation, as a wife and father, he has a responsibility that he cannot shirk. Thinking like this, his steps became extremely heavy, and he really didn't know how to comfort his wife and children.

Fortunately, everyone wiped two handfuls of tears, and remembered to come forward to comfort, "Sister Rong, don't cry, just go home." ”

"Boss, don't hurt yourself, come into the house and talk."

Dong Rong wiped her tears, and occasionally looked up to see Murong Huaide standing at the door, so she quickly put away her sadness, smiled and nodded gently.

Murong Huaide's heart warmed, and he also nodded in response. At the end, he strode over and said, "Let's all come into the house and sit, it just so happens that the affairs of the island need to be arranged." ”

Dong Rong also hugged Chenxi and said with a smile, "Yes, let's go into the house." I just walked all the way, although I only had a cursory look, but this island is bigger than Yimianpo Village. ”

"No, there are mountains and waters, and the land is fertile." Everyone entered the house as they spoke, and Old Man Cao was the first to say with a smile, "I have been walking around the river every day in the past few days, and I estimate that only one hundred and ten acres of paddy fields can be opened on both sides of the riverbank, and hundreds of acres can be opened on the remaining dry fields, and the annual output is enough for all of us to chew." ”

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "The prince has already instructed that the grain stored in the treasury is enough for everyone to eat for two years even if the fields are not opened." Father-in-law doesn't have to rush to reclaim the land, just take your time. ”

Old man Cao was very happy that his son-in-law was sympathetic, stroked his beard and smiled, "Okay, good." I just worked hard, dealing with crops all my life, and I couldn't bear to see such fertile land in vain. ”

Everyone laughed, Dong Rong reached out and took off her gold bracelet for her daughter to nibble and play, it is the nature of mother and daughter, after such a while, Chenxi is already affectionately hugging her mother's neck.

Brother Qi and Brother Ming were red-eyed, struggling desperately in the nurse's arms, not knowing whether they wanted their mother to hug them or wanted to grab toys with their sister.

Gardi looked curious, and peeked at the three little dolls from time to time. Dong Rong simply carried the children to the soft couch in front of the window, and finally pulled Galdi to introduce to everyone, "This child's name is Galdi, and he is a barbarian." Thanks to his father's help, I didn't have to suffer a little hardship. Just before he returned, the child's father died trying to save us. The prince and I recognized this child as our righteous son, and he will be our eldest son in the future. But if Brother Qi and Brother Ming have it, Galdi will not lack it. Even if Brother Qi and Brother Ming don't have it, Galdi will definitely have it. ”

Murong Huaide also nodded in response, "Since you want to live in one place in the future, Galdi will always have to marry a Han name to become successful." If he wants to return to his hometown in the future to fulfill a promise, it is better to call Murong Xin. How about taking the last word of benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith? ”

How could everyone say that it was not good, Dong Rong also pushed Galdi with a smile. Gardi stepped forward again to kowtow to Murong Huaide, and Xie Yifu gave him a name. Ukien and Sude also knelt down and kowtowed, and their unusual appearance was inevitably scrutinized by everyone. The two quietly looked at everyone, only curiosity on their faces, no disdain and hatred, and they were a little relieved.

The two younger sisters of Meihua and Wang Da, as servants, stepped forward to greet the new young master of Galdi. Yang Wanyin, Du Juan and Second Sister Cao also laughed and said that they had accepted their nephews, and they must give them a meeting gift, and they would start to make a few sets of new clothes for Gardi tomorrow.

Mrs. Cao and Aunt Cao also pulled Galdi and said that they were too thin and not as strong as the children in the village, and Zhang Luo wanted to make more food to make up for the children.

The women talked about the children endlessly, and the men, who were bored, gathered together to talk about the future settlement on the island.

Needless to say, Old Man Cao and Aunt Cao's family are responsible for leading people to reclaim paddy fields and dry land, grow grain and vegetables, and strive to be self-sufficient as soon as possible. Master Dong is responsible for teaching all children to read and write, that is, as long as the younger students want to follow the caravan to go out in the future, it is best to learn to read the account book and write simple calculations.

Zhang Yang was responsible for leading the fleet to purchase materials from Haining County, report the news, and contact the Chen family. Dong Ping is responsible for coordinating the trivial affairs of the entire island, and discusses with Dong Rong if there is something.

Yu Guisheng and Wang Da were responsible for leading people up the mountain to cut down trees and make all the needed wooden tools.

As for Jia Yi, he will take people to protect the entire island, although there is a fog barrier here, but for the sake of safety, it is still necessary to be cautious.

Everyone had discussed, and when they were about to disperse, Yu Guisheng suddenly walked to the soft couch and knelt down and kowtowed, and when he looked up, tears had already flowed into his mouth, "Boss, this disaster was caused by our family." After I was born in Gui, my life and death were all sent with the owner, and I had to atone for my sins as a cow and a horse. I just ask the owner to forgive Silian and my mother, if they continue like this, they won't be able to live. ”

Dong Rong was stunned when she heard this, and after scanning around, she realized that there was really no Mrs. Yu and Chu Silian in the room. So he asked, "What's wrong with the eldest mother and Silian?" Although this disaster was provoked by the Chu family brothers, in the final analysis, Silian had already married into the Yu family and had nothing to do with their sins. How could I blame them, and invite them to talk. I haven't seen them in months, and I'm thinking about them too. ”

"Xie Dongjia, Xie Dongjia is not to blame! I'm going to go, I'm going to call them over. Yu Guisheng wiped his tears indiscriminately, got up and ran out.

Cao Pozi pursed her lips and said in a low voice, "This family has no face and no skin, and they have caused such a big disaster, and they dare to follow them to the island..."R638
