Chapter Ninety-Nine: Searching for the Person

After dinner, Chen Shouxin went back to his room early to rest.

In the afternoon, Zhou's questioning words have been haunting Chen Shouxin's head, and in the face of Zhou's disbelief in his son, he will definitely be sad to be another person. Who can ignore his mother's ruthlessness, but Chen Shouxin showed a kind of unwarranted fear.

Weird, weird! The reason why he expressed himself like this seems to be known only to Chen Shouxin.

While Chen Shouxin was alone in the house thinking about something, at home in Hetou Village, the family was anxiously looking for his whereabouts. Wang Yueying had already instructed everyone in the family to go to the village and the surrounding mountains to find Chen Shouxin. To tell the truth, Wang Yueying is not worried about what can happen to this so-called "husband", an adult man. She thought to herself, he was scolded by himself at noon and was speechless, and he quietly hid in negative anger, and when he was hungry, he would come back by himself. The reason why Wang Yueying made such a judgment on Chen Shouxin was entirely based on what Chen Shouxin did in the village.

Although the Chen family claims to the outside world that their children should uphold the family motto of their ancestors to cultivate and read heirlooms, Chen Shouxin has been a scholar for many years, which is too far behind those scholars and children. The memory of the original owner told Wang Yueying that Chen Shouxin was an honest and responsible scholar, and he was not a pampered master since he was a child, and he did not complain about his wife, sons, and daughters. I don't know why, Chen Shouxin, who is mentally imperfect, is quite squeamish in terms of food and housing, and after recovering his mind, he often accuses Wang Yueying's family of having bad food and uncomfortable living. In addition, he is always an "adult" style, and he likes to count others high. Wang Yueying persuaded him not to do this several times, but he relented a little after hearing it, but he still showed his true face from time to time. A quarrel over lunch is a prime example.

It was getting dark, and the last rays of sunlight were hidden behind the mountains in the west, and the moon appeared in the east. The air was cold, Wang Yueying stood around the door and looked around at the family who went out to find Chen Shouxin's whereabouts, it was such a cold day, and I don't know if they had found Chen Shouxin.

On the dirt road in the middle of the village, I saw people hurrying from the end of the village from a distance. It was getting late, and Wang Yueying couldn't see who it was through the faint light at the door. It was only as the footsteps got closer and closer that the man's face became clear. It turned out to be a colorful butterfly.

"Madam, I have inquired about the whereabouts of the master." Caidie, who was still panting, blushed all over her face and pointed in the direction she was running from. Does she want to sue Wang Yueying to look over there, or is she going to sue her that someone is coming?

"What, what are you asking me to look over there, do you already know where the people are?" Wang Yueying stepped forward to help Caidie, and asked without waiting for her to catch her breath.

"I just went to the end of the village to inquire about the news of the master, and after asking many people, they said they didn't know. When I came back, I met Sun Laohan, and he said, 'The old man went to the Chen family restaurant'. ”

"Chen's Restaurant?" As soon as Wang Yueying heard that Chen Shouxin had gone to Chen's restaurant, she felt a little strange in her heart. What is he doing there? Isn't it enough to be murdered before? Thinking carefully about the words Chen Shouxin said during the noon quarrel, it meant that he was going to Chen's restaurant to visit the sick Zhou. After all, it is a biological mother and son, even if the mother beats and scolds her son in a thousand ways, the nurturing feelings that blood is thicker than water are endless. No matter what, Wang Yueying finally knew Chen Shouxin's whereabouts, and her frowning brows eased, and the most important thing was that she could comfort the two children at home a little, lest they worry about Chen Shouxin and think nonsense at home.

"It's okay, whether it's in Chen's restaurant, I've been irritable when I see him recently, and I always talk about the difference between respect and inferiority, which makes you unhappy."

"Madame's words are serious, what the master said is actually not unreasonable, we are the ・・・・・・ of the subordinates" Before Caidie could say something like "you shouldn't eat at the same table with the master's family", Wang Yueying interrupted: "When did I treat you as subordinates." It's only been a few days, why did you get poisoned by him, tell me this. ”

Caidie knew that she was speechless, "Madame treats me like a sister and never treats me as a person." It's just that the lord has a problem with this matter after all, and it is better to eat at separate tables in the future, and there are more people eating now, and there are not so many people sitting at one table. "Caidie's construction is not unreasonable, just wait for Wang Yueying to think about it herself. Suddenly, I heard Caidie giggling on the side, Wang Yueying asked and didn't say the reason, until she pretended to reach out and tickle her, Caidie said, "Madam, do you say that the master is jealous?" ”

"Jealousy? What is jealous, jealous that I am better than him? ”

"Probably! However, when you listen to what he said to Brother Song and Mr. Zhuge at noon, you seem to be jealous. As she spoke, she giggled again.

"Eat ・・・・・・" Wang Yueying reacted to the meaning of Caidie's words, and was about to reach out and tickle her. Caidie blocked it twice with her hand in succession, avoiding her one step away from stopping her laughter.

"Then why don't we go and pick up the old man back?" Seeing that Wang Yueying had no intention of taking Chen Shouxin back to the village, and did not know the content of the quarrel between the male and female hosts at noon, Caidie wondered why Wang Yueying was so relieved that Chen Shouxin went to Chen's restaurant alone.

"If you don't pick him up, you can dry him for a few days to kill his squeamishness. Besides, it was getting late, and the city gate of Bacheng County had been closed, and it was in vain to go. ”

The people at home who were looking for Chen Shouxin's whereabouts came back one after another, and Ryoma also ran several miles this time, looking for Chen Shouxin in the nearby mountains, and when he came back, he was shivering with cold. Since losing his mana, Ryoma is no different from ordinary people in all aspects, he will be hungry and cold, and he seems to be more afraid of hunger and cold than ordinary people, as soon as he entered the house, he picked up the small stove that Wang Yueying uses on weekdays, stared at Wang Yueying and asked: "Did anyone find it, I have been looking for a long time, but I haven't seen a shadow." ”

"I haven't found anyone, but Caidie has found out about his whereabouts."

"Where?"

"Caidie said, 'In the afternoon, he asked Sun Laohan to drive him to the Chen family restaurant with an ox cart.'" Wang Yueying was slightly disdainful. She understood that the reason why Chen Shouxin did this was nothing more than to be angry with her, and he was just a woman.

"How did he come up with the idea of going back to Chen's house? His wife doesn't want to see him the most, and nothing good will happen when he goes back. Ryoma held the small stove in one hand, and began to touch his stomach with the other, as if he was signaling when Wang Yueying would start eating. Wang Yueying looked at him touching his stomach, thinking that everyone must be hungry after looking for so long, so she said that she would eat first and go to the town tomorrow to find him.

The family sat together, and Wang Yueying took out the hot pot dinner she prepared herself tonight, hoping to use the heat of the hot pot to drive away the cold air contaminated by everyone. The style of eating hot pot only appears in the north, and it is extremely rare in the south, and Song Hai, who has had dealings with the northern peoples, is also the first time to see hot pot with his own eyes. At the dinner table, there was thunderous cheer as usual, but Chen Boxun and Yang Yang sat on the side sullenly. Wang Yueying guessed that they must still be worried about Chen Shouxin's safety, so she only told the two of them that they would take them to the town tomorrow to pick up Chen Shouxin, and the two of them started to eat with chopsticks.

Wang Yueying's family will not say much about tonight.
