Chapter 174: Different
ps:Ahh Thank you for the rewards and monthly passes, bow!
Wu Xingxia and Tian Huilan rushed back to their hometown county, but unfortunately the county was no longer prosperous, and the originally bustling streets were in tatters. The house collapsed, the residents were lost, and when the martial arts ran around day and night to find Tian's father, the two old men were so hungry that their faces were yellow and thin, and they shrank in the broken temple and mixed with the victims.
Because of the disaster in the county, not to mention the officials, even the county magistrate died in his sleep, and the court directly sent officers and soldiers, such as Tian's father, who was an old official, naturally did not get the attention of the airborne magistrate, although he happened to save his life, but he was not clothed and hungry, and he relied on the government to release food to barely survive.
It is said that the nearby villages and towns are desolate and uninhabited, but they are afraid that they are worse than the county, and their girl and good grandson have passed away.
The two old men were lucky to survive the midwinter and survive the coming year. In the end, with the help of kind neighbors, they built a thatched hut, and when the government no longer released grain, they went to the nearby mountains to eat wild vegetables and other food.
So when Wu Xingxia found the two old men, the old man's eyes were full of hope, and Tian looked at the crumbling thatched house in despair. Without a house to live in, she couldn't forcibly dissuade Wu Xingxia from staying......
In Tian's heart, the Wu family is the Longtan Tiger's Den, and Wu Nuandong is the demon who can eat Wushan River.
Her resentment towards Wu Nuandong has risen from prejudice to a demonic barrier that cannot be overthrown. While suffering himself, he suffered even more Wushanhe.
There was no excuse left, a few people rested for a period of time and set off again, missing the plague outbreak and the closure of the city along the way, but it was a stop-and-go delay for a lot of time, and finally met Zheng Wen in Yulin, took a carriage, and the group hurried back to Pingji Town overnight.
"What about the in-laws? Why didn't you come back? As a parent, Wu Tianxin didn't think it was wrong for her daughter-in-law to deliberately turn back and take her father back. When a natural disaster struck, people were caught off guard. So much so that they can't notify their neighbors and old friends in time, which is a pity in the hearts of the whole family. Now that the son has brought his father-in-law and mother-in-law, he can only feel lucky. There's nothing better than seeing old acquaintances after a catastrophe.
Qian put Wu Shanhe into Wu Tianxin's arms, and couldn't wait to stand up: "I'll go and pack up the first floor and vacate it for them to live, they are slightly older than us." Going up and down the stairs was far less convenient than ours. ”
"Mother, no need!" Wu Xingxia scratched his head embarrassedly. "Considering that my father-in-law and they are not suitable for life in the village, I asked Grandpa Zheng to borrow some silver taels and bought them a house in Pingji Town."
Qian frowned slightly, turned around and sat down. Whispered, "Then do you want to live in the town too?" ”
"No, no." The martial arts waved their hands again and again. glanced at Zheng Wen crampedly, "Grandpa Zheng didn't have enough money to buy a big house." ”
Zheng Wen, who was drinking tea on the side, stroked the upturned beard on his chin. Yun said lightly: "The five hundred taels barely bought a house and a small courtyard, and there is only one firewood room in that courtyard that can cook, which is enough for their old couple to live." ”
The Wu family was silent, for fear that Zheng Wen would encounter an accident on the way, Nuan Nuan obviously spent a thousand taels of silver from the book, and Zheng Wen's purpose in doing this was self-evident.
Wu Tianxin and Qian looked at them with gratitude, and Zheng Wen quietly waved his hand.
Knowing that their daughter-in-law is a little alienated from them, but parents don't want their children to leave them with estrangement, not to mention the eldest grandson of the Wu family, which is the biggest concern of Wu Tianxin and the Qian family.
"Uncle Zheng, we will return the money to you in the future."
"It's okay, the family doesn't talk to each other!" It was Zheng Wen's previous savings and the money he earned from opening a pharmacy, he was too lazy to take care of it, so he handed it all over to Nuan Nuan to help him save, and when he used it, he asked Nuan Nuan to withdraw it.
Wu Xingyi calculated, "It cost 10,000 yuan to redeem my father's mother, and now I have spent another 500 taels in the town, Nuan Nuan, you give Brother Xingyi an idea, what can our brothers do to make money?" ”
Wu Xingxia's heart tightened, and he raised his eyes and looked at Wu Xingyi in confusion, "What's wrong with my father?" How do you owe so much money? ”
Wu Nuandong was just about to speak, but he was pulled by Qian from the side and sat in his arms, Qian shook his head indifferently, "We don't need your little worry about our affairs, your father and I can still move, and we don't have to rely on you to pay off the bills for us." Xingxia, just give back the money you earn to Grandpa Zheng! Daddy here, you two don't have to worry! "The Qian family is always a little angry, and it is true that the family does not say two words, but the daughter-in-law has not even opened the door since she entered the door, let alone call someone. mourned, as if someone else owed her money, and she couldn't see half of the joy of family reunion. If she is sensible, even if she says that she will cause trouble to Uncle Zheng, the Qian family will not find faults.
Zhou's nephew and daughter-in-law are honest and don't say much, and if people can't say it, they will smile embarrassedly, at least let people know that she appreciates and remembers her gratitude. Originally, the Qian family didn't care, but Tian's resistance to the martial arts family was too superficial, she had done everything she should have persuaded and endured, and she felt that her mother-in-law had no one to be sorry for her to the point where she did.
But Tian also tried to take Xiaoshan away, which she couldn't bear.
She cared about Xiaoshan being the blood and blood of the Tian family, but she didn't care that Xiaoshan was the eldest grandson of the martial family.
Wu Nuandong could feel the tightness of the eldest aunt's body, and sighed slightly, not knowing whether to blame Yuan Nuannuan's willfulness or Tian's narrow-mindedness and darkness.
Just as she was thinking about how to reintegrate the relationship between the originally harmonious big house, she felt a wind coming from the right, and she subconsciously turned her head, and a small fist landed on her shoulder.
"Get up, this is my grandma, don't let my grandma hold you, you stinky girl!" It was originally a milky fairy tale, but at this time, it made people feel chills in their hearts.
Wu Nuandong had a side face, and saw Wu Shanhe glaring at her angrily, with a pair of round eyes full of malice.
The Wu family gasped, obviously they didn't expect that Xiaoshan, who was the best with Nuan Nuan, would say such a thing!
"Ouch! My warmth! How did you get beaten? Quick, come and let Uncle take a look! My poor Nuan Nuan! ”
Tian secretly cocked a mocking smile, and after seeing the group of people swaying in from the hallway, he suddenly went back darkly. She stared at Jiang Huaicai and Sun for a moment, and then walked over and hugged Xiaoshan from the arms of her father-in-law, who still looked incredulous.
"Xiaoshan, how can you say that about your aunt?" Wu Xingxia jumped up, thinking that he had just reacted to the difference in his son.
Wu Shanhe pursed his lips and muttered, "That's my grandma, I want grandma to hug me!" ”
At this time, Tian spoke, she smoothed the top of her son's hair, and said softly: "Xiaoshan is too worried about her mother-in-law, not intentionally!" ”
The corners of Qian's mouth stiffened, I hope! I hope it's like she said! Then he rubbed Nuan Nuan's shoulders and handed Nuan Nuan to the expressionless old man, he was really ashamed to see the fourth brother! (To be continued.) )
