133. Chapter 133
The tavern is located in the south of the Yangtze River this time, and the specific place should be called Qingyuan Mansion, which is not particularly far from Peach Blossom Island. That's why I met Huang Yaoshi who went out to play on the outlying islands.
Ye Guicheng left a letter for Huang Yaoshi in the store, saying that he was going to visit the descendants of the deceased, and the return date was undecided, and the wine could only be drunk in the future. Give the letter to Uncle Du, if Huang Yaoshi comes to drink again, let him hand it over, and then the two of them packed up their baggage and went out.
The two wanted to go directly to Mu Nianci and Yang Kang's son.
At the end of the original Condor book, it was mentioned that Guo Jing and Huang Rong had met Mu Nianci in Shangrao, but she always wanted to go back to Lin'an Niujia Village, the hometown of her stepfather Yang Tiexin, who was closer to Lin'an, so she was going to go to Lin'an first.
However, when passing by Jiaxing, Ye Guicheng suddenly remembered that Chu Ge seemed to have said that Yang Kang died in an iron spear temple here, and no one had collected his body so far, so he couldn't help but feel great sympathy, and was ready to go over to collect his bones, and then bring them to Mu Nianci.
No matter how bad Yang Kang in this world is in Chu Ge's narrative, Ye Guicheng always can't completely eliminate the likable child in his impression.
If there is chaos today, the people are displaced, and the Iron Gun Temple has long been abandoned.
Ye Guicheng stood in the temple, looking at the mess and cobwebs, slowly sketching the scene described by Chu Ge in his mind, and then merging it with the things in his memory, except for a long sigh, he couldn't say anything else.
The two brought wine and incense paper, and after a brief worship, they gathered the bones, packed the ashes after incineration, and continued on the road.
Fortunately, Mu Nianci was really in Lin'an Niujia Village.
Because Chu Ge was able to clearly say the surnames of Mu Nianci and Yang Kang and Yang Guo's name, it didn't take much effort to make a sound.
After all, it is a small village, and the residence of Yang Guo's mother and son is very simple, just two thatched huts, and a fence is enclosed outside as a yard.
When they arrived, it was evening, and through the low fence, they could see only a little doll of two or three years old in the yard, and they were driving the little chicks running all over the yard in one place. The little doll is wearing coarse cloth clothes, and her skin is a little rough, but her whole body is clean, and it is not annoying, plus her eyebrows and eyes are very good, her lips are red and her teeth are white, her eyebrows are thick and her eyes are big, and she is very smart.
When the little doll saw the stranger push the door in, she looked back, and was not afraid of life, but looked at them with some curiosity. This distraction, the little chicks who were about to be driven into the chicken coop fluttered and fluttered their tender little wings and flew away, and the little doll was startled, and he couldn't care about them, and hurriedly drove the chickens again.
Chu Ge & Ye Return: ......
The two of them were looking at each other for a while, and suddenly a gentle inquiry voice came from behind them: "The two of you...... Is there something wrong with coming to my house? ”
The two turned their heads together, and saw a strange woman carrying a bundle of firewood in one hand and several dead snakes in the other, looking at them suspiciously.
This girl looks less than thirty, with a black scarf and a green shirt, dressed in a slightly old-fashioned manner, but she has a beautiful appearance, a peaceful and gentle demeanor, and although she is carrying firewood and a snake in her hands, she still can't help but feel close.
This should be Mu Nianci.
Chu Ge and Ye Guicheng glanced at each other, Chu Ge rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "This is Madame's house?" The one in the courtyard is Ling Gongzi, right? That's the case, my husband and wife walked the rivers and lakes, passed by here by chance, and saw that the little boy was very talented in martial arts, my husband liked it very much, and wanted to accept it as an apprentice, I don't know what Mrs. wants? ”
Mu Nianci's eyes instantly became subtle.
Ye Guicheng couldn't help but twist his face, he couldn't bear to look directly - he listened to this...... How do you look so much like a human crutch?
However, Mu Nianci was kind and kind, although Chu Ge's words were indeed a bit like he was going to kidnap her son, but he didn't immediately beat people out. After all, she is also a martial arts practitioner, and she saw these two people standing at the door of her house from a long distance, and she could be regarded as observing for a while, and she did not notice their malice. In addition, Chu Ge and Ye Guicheng are well-dressed, talk extraordinarily, and have excellent looks and temperament, which is difficult to make people feel bad.
So when Ye Guicheng said that she planned to stay here tonight and talk about it in detail later, she still nodded and agreed.
Mu Nianci pushed the door and led the two into the courtyard, while glancing at Ye Guicheng's white hair with some confusion, and hesitated for a moment before saying: "The clumsy husband's surname is Yang, I don't think the two are very old, why don't you call me sister-in-law Yang." ”
Chu Ge responded with a smile and said the surnames of the two separately.
Mu Nianci has always been straightforward, so he said, "Sister Chu, Brother Ye." ”
After grinding at the door, Xiao Yang Guo finally drove the chicken back to the chicken coop, and when he saw that his mother was back, he immediately came up very intimately to help with things, holding Chai He with great effort, and whispered to Mu Nianci: "Mom, are these two guests guests?" ”
Yang Guo's small body was very cute holding firewood, Chu Ge couldn't help but bend down and touch his head, then took out a piece of maltose from his purse and stuffed it into the other party's mouth.
Xiao Yang Guo couldn't help but bend his eyebrows sweetly, secretly made a "sweet" mouth shape for Mu Nianci, and then said "thank you" to Chu Ge vaguely.
Ye Guicheng took the firewood from him, and sent it to the corner of the wall in three or two steps.
Because of Yang Kang's affairs, Mu Nianci is very strict with Yang Guo, plus it is not easy for her to live with a child in troubled times as a woman, although she has learned some inner family methods from Hong Qigong, but after all, her talent is limited, and her martial arts are not smart, this is a world of martial arts, and there are endless masters, and her fists and feet are not enough. As for the hundred taels of gold that Huang Rong gave her last time, she couldn't use it, after all, this village is too small, and she still understands the truth that wealth is not exposed. So when I saw Xiao Yang Guo happy like this because of a piece of maltose, I was inevitably a little sad.
After putting the things down, Mu Nianci apologized and said that he was going to cook, for fear that he would miss the company.
Naturally, the two didn't care about this.
Chu Ge and Ye Guicheng didn't know how to cook, and they didn't know how to use this kind of earthen stove, so they didn't follow to make trouble, but played with Xiao Yang in the yard.
Yang was so old that it was the first time he had such close contact with an adult man, riding a big horse for a while, throwing high for a while, and giggling happily.
Mu Nianci heard it in the kitchen, and inevitably wondered if Yang Kang was still alive, would he tease the child like this.
The dinner is not sumptuous, a plate of fried vegetables, a plate of pickled radish, plus a snake soup, barely two dishes and one soup, and meat and vegetarian, the staple food can only be brown rice.
Mu Nianci was a little embarrassed, but Ye Guicheng and Chu Ge were unimpressed.
After eating, Mu Nianci simply cleaned up, and coaxed Xiao Yangguo to sleep again, so he came to ask the identities of the two in detail.
Chu Ge first took out the urn box in the package, explaining that it was Yang Kang's ashes that were found in the Iron Spear Temple and burned.
As soon as he heard that this was Yang Kang's ashes, Mu Nianci couldn't stay calm anymore, his expression was so sad that he couldn't help covering his mouth with his hands, and tears rolled down his beautiful big eyes.
Seeing this, Ye Guicheng and Chu Ge walked out of the house together and went to stand in the courtyard for a while.
Mu Nianci had already known about Yang Kang's death, but he didn't feel sad for too long, he cried for a while, washed his face again, and invited the two back again.
Mu Nianci was ashamed of his gaffe, but he still forcibly suppressed his feelings, and pretended to calmly ask Chu Ge how he knew about the Iron Spear Temple.
Because of the inconvenient transportation in ancient times, communication was even more troublesome, Chu Ge talked nonsense without pressure, anyway, it was impossible for Mu Nianci to go to Huang Rong for verification.
Chu Ge said that Ye Guicheng and Huang Yaoshi were friends for the New Year, and Huang Yaoshi's daughter Huang Rong sued her about this. Then he said that Huang Rong knew that although Yang Kang's death was not because of her, it was inseparable from her, and Huang Rong couldn't talk about it herself, and when she heard that they were going out, she asked them to help convey it. Then he really told Mu Nianci everything that Yang Kang did and what he gained back then.
As early as when Huang Rong told her the news that Yang Kang was dead, she felt that the cause of Yang Kang's death might be related to Huang Rong, and now she was not surprised to get the news. She likes Yang Kang, and she is naturally sad when Yang Kang dies, but she knows that since she left, Yang Kang has done so many evil things and killed so many people, almost causing Guo Jing and Huang Rong to turn against each other, and even went back to being the little prince of the Jin Kingdom, helping to abuse him, and he couldn't blame even half a point for the person who killed him.
But no matter what, Yang Kang's bones can finally be buried in the ground. At this point, Mu Nianci was still very relieved.
At this time, Mu Nianci's suspicion and vigilance towards Chu Ge and the others had been completely eliminated, and seeing that the night was getting deeper and deeper, he let the two of them go to rest - although her home was simple, there were still two rooms, originally she and Yang Guo were one person, but now that there were guests, she went to sleep in Yang Guo's house, and her room was given to the two of them.
Mu Nianci's house was really simple, and the bed was very small, Chu Ge and Ye Guicheng didn't sleep comfortably at night, so they got up early the next morning.
At this time, Yang Guo was still sleeping, but Mu Nianci had already made breakfast.
Chu Ge ran to Yang Guo's room to take a look at the child's sleeping face, and then mentioned the matter of accepting apprentices to Mu Nianci very seriously.
Mu Nianci's martial arts are low, and he can't feel how powerful Ye Guicheng and Chu Ge are, he only knows that both of them are better than him, but it is still more important to let his son apprentice, and ...... She never thought that she would be separated from her son one day, and suddenly she thought about it, and she was very reluctant.
Seeing Mu Nianci's hesitation, Chu Ge smiled: "This matter is not in a hurry. I will go to Zhongnan Mountain on the way back, and I will go from here when I come back, and then Sister Mu will decide whether to let Xiao Yang go through the apprenticeship. ”
After breakfast, the two took their leave and continued north.
After waiting for the boundary after Huashan, Ye Guicheng knew the next road very well, after all, after Huashan discussed the sword, he took care of Wang Chongyang and them all the way back, although because of the war over the years, the official road has changed somewhat, but the impact is not great.
The two went all the way north, very smoothly,
