Chapter Thirty-Seven: Joyful Meeting

The carriage creaked along the road, turning from a dark alley into a bustling street, bustling with people outside and silent inside. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Because of the sentence just now, Chen Mujin was still thinking nonsense and didn't know what to say.

Sima Ji, on the other hand, simply didn't want to speak, he closed his eyes and leaned against the wall of the car to begin to recuperate.

Chen Mujin felt Xiao Shi's hand grasping her tighter and tighter, and knew that he was nervous, so he took him into his arms and asked gently, "Is Xiao Shi a little nervous?" ā€

Little Stone nodded, but remained silent.

"Don't be nervous, my sister and brother Ji are with you, besides, we are going to meet Xiaoshi's grandfather and uncle, who are Xiaoshi's relatives." She lowered her tone to a brisk tone, trying to adjust his mood.

"Will my grandfather and uncle like me?" The little stone is still full of worry.

Chen Mujin pinched his little cheek and said with a smile: "How can anyone not like our little stone? Little stone is so sensible and beautiful! It's like a fairy descending to earth, and they must treat the little stone as a treasure. ā€

The little stone was coaxed shyly, lowered his head and did not speak.

In a blink of an eye, the carriage stopped, and the coachman said, "Master, it's here." ā€

Sima Ji opened his eyes and said to them gently: "When you arrive, just follow me, don't worry, everything is with me." ā€

Chen Mujin smiled, nodded, took a deep breath, and got out of the car with a small stone.

As soon as she got out of the car, Chen Mujin was amazed, she was facing a small bluestone bridge, under the bridge was a pool of blue water, there were more than a dozen lotus lanterns floating on the water, and the firelight jumped to illuminate the water surface. The bluestone bridge has a candlestick every five steps and a candlestick every ten steps, carved into different forms of zodiac, which is very lively and playful, eye-catching. After crossing the bridge, it is a bamboo forest path, and on both sides of the path are hung with various colored lanterns, which are brilliant and brilliant, just like a fantasy.

Chen Mujin looked at Xiao Shi's expression while admiring, and took off his hat for him.

I saw that his young white skin was flushed with excitement, and his eyes were full of gilt colors of lights. He looked east and west, and smiled.

"Look, my grandfather and uncle have made such grand preparations for you, do you like it?" Chen Mujin asked him happily.

"yes, I like it." Little Stone looked at her, his smile mixed with a little shyness.

Sima Ji sighed in his heart, Wei Fa was also attentive this time.

The three of them walked and stopped, admired the lights and watched the scenery, and were very happy, and it took a quarter of an hour to complete this path of less than 800 meters.

As he walked, Sima Ji stopped and got out of the way.

Chen Mujin hugged the small stone and saw that at the end of the road, an old man wearing a blue cloth shirt stood up straight and looked this way, and a woman and a young man stood beside him. Although the family is dressed like ordinary people, their temperament is extraordinary.

This is General Wei's family, Chen Mujin speculated, and put the small stone down.

The moment the woman saw the little stone, tears welled up in her eyes, and she trembled so that she did not dare to fall for fear of startling him. Even General Wei, who has been on the battlefield all his life, has a gleam in his eyes.

Blood relationship is really the most wonderful bond in the world, after seeing his grandfather's family, Xiao Shi seemed to have some telepathy, and tears couldn't stop falling.

For so many years, his grandson, who could only be known between the lines of the letters, finally stood in front of him, and he was still so good-looking, the original worries, hesitations, and uneasiness in Wei Fa's heart disappeared in an instant.

"Xiaoyun, come, come to my grandfather's side." Wei Fa whispered Xiao Shi's name and stretched out his hand to greet him.

Xiaoshi hesitated for a moment, turned his head to look at Chen Mujian, and saw her smiling face, gesturing at herself encouragingly, and finally felt at ease, took a step, and ran to the opposite side.

Wei Fa also took a few steps forward, caught his small body with one hand, and tears poured out as if he had found a cut. Mrs. Wei and Wei Fa also embraced, and the family was finally reunited.

"Grandfather, I'm sorry for you, for making you suffer so much." Wei Fa, an old man who was over half a hundred years old, hugged his grandson and cried like a child.

Mrs. Wei had been sobbing silently and stroking Xiao Shi's head over and over again, and Wei Shuo, an iron-clad man, couldn't help but redden.

Chen Mujin couldn't see such a touching scene the most, with a handful of tears and a handful of snot, Sima Ji frowned, took her away, and wiped her face with a handkerchief.

Sima Ji's face was so close to her that she could feel the trembling of his breath on her face.

Not surprisingly, she blushed again.

Sima Ji still meticulously wiped away her tears, stuffed the handkerchief into her hand, and said lightly: "Blow your nose." ā€

Chen Mujin was so embarrassed that her face was about to drip blood, she quickly turned around and quickly solved this embarrassing matter.

Wei Shuo walked over and waved at Sima Ji: "Thank you too, ah!" I'm so happy! He was about to talk about the prince, but Sima Ji twisted the tender meat around his waist and turned the conversation around.

Sima Ji smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "They are all good brothers, thank you!" She gave him a look.

Wei Shuo knew in his heart that he didn't want to reveal his identity, so he also greeted him with a smile: "Brother Sima, who is this girl?" ā€

Sima Ji pulled Chen Muhibiscus, who had just finished blowing his nose, and introduced: "This is my sister-in-law, the small character hibiscus." It was she who saved Xiaoyun. ā€

Wei Shuo's eyes showed a hint of surprise, but he immediately bowed to her: "Thank you for the great kindness of the hibiscus girl!" ā€

Chen Mujin hurriedly pulled him up, and shouted in his mouth: "Don't don't, how can I afford such a big gift from you!" ā€

"Absolutely stand it! The girl doesn't have to be humble. Wei Fa's voice was like a bell, and he came steadily holding a small stone.

Mrs. Wei also came over, took Chen Mujian's hand, and said kindly and lovingly: "Girl, thanks to you, otherwise Yun'er would not know how much suffering and how many sins she would have to suffer, let alone the reunion at this moment." You are the great benefactor of our Wei family!"

"That's right, the girl and Sima Gongzi are both benefactors of my Wei family, benefactors please, we have set up a little wine and food inside, and please don't shirk the benefactor." Wei Shuo gave up his hand and invited Sima Ji and Chen Mujin into a house in the back.

Xiao Shi's eyes were red, but a smile appeared on his lips, he jumped out of Wei Fa's arms, took Chen Mujian's hand, and ran in happily.

Drew laughter from everyone.

At the insistence of the Wei family, Sima Ji and Chen Mujin sat on the main seat, and Xiao Shi sat obediently next to Mrs. Wei. Wei Fa and Wei Shuo sat on the left.

The long table was full of delicacies that could not be named, and Chen Mujian was speechless, this is thin wine? This is comparable to the full banquet of the Manchurians, right?

Sure enough, he is worthy of General Wei, and he has a lot of money.

"Come, in order to celebrate Xiaoyun's return to the Wei family, let's drink this cup full!" General Wei stood up, picked up the wine cup in front of him, and opened the banquet.

Everyone toasted as they were told. After the first glass of wine, Chen Mujian felt very warm in his stomach, this wine is similar to modern baijiu, but there is not so much spicy taste, but with some fruity aroma and sweetness, the taste is excellent.

She drinks an average amount of alcohol, which in modern times is the amount of one or two liquors.

But today is really happy, plus the food is delicious, and there are handsome guys around her, so she drank a lot before she knew it.

"Sima Gongzi, there is something to do in Qingyang this time, if you can use the old man, please just speak?" Wei Fa looked righteous and awe-inspiring.

Sima Ji smiled: "There is really one thing that needs General Wei's help." ā€

"The old man listened." Wei Van Dao.

"I came to Qingyang this time because I have a batch of goods to be transported to Yuchi Country, and this must pass through the Sanfeng Valley." He paused for a moment, saw Wei Fan's face change slightly, he didn't see it, and continued.

"I heard rumors that this place in Sanfeng Valley is full of bandits, and all the merchants who pass by have been robbed or deducted from oil and water, and I am also the first time to go back to Yuchi, I don't know the detailed situation, and I ask General Wei for some advice." He looked straight at Wei Va.

Wei Fa felt that the cold sweat behind his back had come down, and he had received news not long ago that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had asked Ying to go to Sanfeng Valley to suppress bandits, and he just took it as a joke.

This place in Sanfeng Valley is guarded by his ironclad army, and several conflicts between bandits and caravans are also solved by the ironclad army himself, saying that it is a solution, but in fact, it is to bring people out, but the goods or anything are not seen at all. It's not that the ironclad army is insufficient, it's just that the terrain of Sanfeng Valley is too peculiar, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The ironclad army was adapted to fighting on the plains and was very unaccustomed to the mountains.

Once, the merchants were bullied so badly that they jointly asked Wei Fa to send troops to encircle and suppress them, and they were responsible for all the materials and money. Wei Fa saw that they were really sincere, so he agreed to their request and sent an elite to suppress the bandits, but unexpectedly, this elite was beaten and ran back with his armor off, and no one dared to say anything about encircling and suppressing Sanfeng Valley.

Doesn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know?

At this moment, the prince was looking at him, and he couldn't help answering, so he pondered for a while before he spoke: "This place in Sanfeng Valley is indeed infested with bandits, and it has been a hidden tumor for many years. ā€

Sima Ji asked, "Why is this?" ā€

"There are a lot of problems, but when they come together, there are actually three." Wei Fa stretched out his finger: "The first one belongs to natural causes. The Three Peaks Valley is a natural hazard, it is an extremely long and deep valley, the road at the bottom of the valley is winding, there are many forks, and there is no guide to pass it at all. And many of its terrain is in a state of a line of sky, the two walls are sandwiched, the width is only more than ten feet, the narrow place is only more than three feet, if the carriage is too large, it can not pass at all. According to the terrain, the bandits specially attacked in that narrow place, and ordinary merchants had no power to fight back, so they could only let them slaughter. However, this bandit only robbed the goods but did not hurt people's lives, which is a blessing in misfortune. ā€

He said, shaking his head incessantly.
