Chapter 195: Family
Xia Zhi was in a hurry to go home, urging Lin Yunlei to let the team hurry up. Lin Yunlei knew that Xia Zhi was homesick, but now he was not as anxious as when he came out to find Xia Zhi, he needed to work non-stop all day, and even spent his sleep time in a hurry, Lin Yunlei wanted Xia Zhi to go home comfortably.
I thought that because Xia Zhi was in a hurry, he finally disliked the carriage too slowly, delayed time, and even abandoned the carriage in the second half of the journey, got on Lin Yunlei's horse, and galloped with them, just to be able to return to Tianjiazhuang as soon as possible. Although the summer solstice is not the first time to ride a horse, it is definitely the first time to ride a horse for such a long time, not to mention the whole body ache from the bumps of the horse, and the skin of the thighs is worn out. Xia Zhi still gritted his teeth and insisted, letting people continue to move forward. But even so, when the summer solstice and their group arrived at Niangniang Town, it was already the afternoon of the fourteenth day of the first lunar month.
At noon on the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, I saw a team of people riding horses and lined up into the gate of Niangniang Town, and Xia Zhi saw the three words on the gate of Niangniang Town, and only felt a sense of intimacy born leisurely, thinking that he was finally back. Lin Yunlei took Xia Zhi to meet Ma Shang first.
The next person came to report that Lin Yunlei and Xia Zhi were coming, Ma Shang rushed out almost regardless of it, and saw Lin Yunlei and Xia Zhi standing at the door of the study, and finally let go of his heart.
"I said old horse, you saw the two of them, but you didn't see me!" Zheng Sheng saw that Ma Shang's eyes were sweeping around Xia Zhi and Lin Yunlei's bodies, and he couldn't help frowning and pretending to be angry.
"Ah, Xiao Zheng, what kind of wind blew you here!" Ma Shang's eyes widened and he looked at Zheng Sheng, who was standing side by side with Xia Zhi and Lin Yunlei, and he didn't know what kind of wind this kid smoked, and he actually came to his territory.
"How. I can't come. Don't forget that I'm also from here. And let me tell you, Xia Zhi is my niece, if you bully him in the future, see how I deal with you! Zheng Sheng looked triumphant, as if he had Xia Zhi, what a great thing it was to have the niece incident.
"What! Who are you going to be, there is no home at all on the summer solstice! "Regarding the situation of Xia Zhi's family, Ma Shang and Lin Yunlei all know very well. I have never seen the Zheng family and his mother's family deal, and later I heard that the Zheng family's family is gone, and his wife is still empty, saying that it is fortunate that the Tian family is good, otherwise there is a lack of daughter-in-law of the mother's family, and most of them are bullied in the mother-in-law's family. was bullied to death, and no one sought justice for her.
So when Ma Shang heard Zheng Sheng say this, his first reaction was surprise, and then he didn't believe it.
"Who blinded you, and I tell you. I'm Xia Zhi's uncle! On the summer solstice, her aunt is my own sister! ”
Xia Zhi stood beside him, watching Zheng Sheng and Ma Shang go back and forth. I couldn't help but roll my eyes. When she met Zheng Sheng for the first time, she still felt that Zheng Sheng was a gentle and elegant person. As a result, after this period of time, Xia Zhi felt that he was really wrong, this is obviously a little ruffian.
"Huh? Could it be that there is a sister in the family you are talking about, that is, Xia Solstice A-Niang? Didn't you say that your sister married away from home? How could it be the summer solstice!"
Zheng Sheng joined the army for his parents' medical expenses, and there was also a sister-in-law, Ma Shang had known for a long time, at that time, Zheng Sheng and their group always praised his sister-in-law for being good, saying that his sister was not only sensible, but also filial to her elders, and she looked very good, and she simply praised his sister-in-law as a flower.
It's just that Zheng Sheng went home later, and learned that his parents had passed away, and his sister had married away from home, so he was very depressed for a while, and later heard Zheng Sheng inquire about his sister-in-law's situation in many ways, but there was no result, until he left the barracks, he didn't hear that he found his sister-in-law.
"Hey, this matter is a long story, let's have a good chat when we have time, my little niece is thinking about finding something to go home day and night, we come to you, and I will also talk to you, so that you can rest assured, we are leaving, and we have to go to Brother Xu to say something!"
Marchand nodded, thinking about coming to the summer solstice and being away from home for two months, it was normal to be homesick. Xia Zhi was sent back by Lin Yunlei safely, and the heart he was carrying was also put down. Speaking of Xia Zhi, such a thing will happen, more or less has something to do with him, if Xia Zhi really can't be found or killed, how can he have any face to face the Tian family.
Seeing that although Xia Zhi looked tired, but his spirit was really good, Ma Shang walked forward and patted Xia Zhi's head, knowing that Xia Zhi was eager to return home, and he didn't leave them.
"Okay, you go and talk to Brother Xu first, wait for the next time, we're having a good chat, and I won't keep you!"
"Don't stay, it's not easy for us to come to you, next time we find Brother Xu, let's have a good chat! Go back, we're leaving! Zheng Sheng saw that Ma Shang was going to send them out, so he strode away directly with Xia Zhi in his arms, and he didn't need Ma Shang to send them.
And Zheng Sheng picked up the summer solstice, purely because he felt sorry for the summer solstice. Xia Zhi has been riding with Lin Yunlei for a while, and now her legs are trembling when she stands on the ground, Zheng Sheng still gritted her teeth and insisted when she saw her like this, and most of the times when she needed to go to the ground, he would hold her.
Anyway, it is natural for an uncle to hug his niece, not to mention that according to the customs of the Dawu Dynasty, Xia is only nine years old this year, and he is still a child, and it is not normal for a child to be pampered by his uncle. Xia Zhi blushed slightly, but she was still self-hypnotizing, her body was really painful, even if she was hugged back by Zheng Sheng, she couldn't help but twitch, and she was a little more comfortable.
Out of the gate of the county government, Lin Yunlei had already prepared a carriage, and Xia Zhi was no longer reckless, so he was directly carried by Zheng Sheng into a carriage and went to Xu Ming's medical hall.
When they arrived at the summer solstice, the hospital was very deserted, thinking that because of the Chinese New Year, there were not many patients, Xu Ming was in front of the medicine cabinet, sorting out the medicinal materials, and even the little medicine boy was not there, Xia Zhi happily shouted, "Grandpa!" ’
Xu Ming immediately raised his head in surprise, and when he saw the beautiful summer solstice standing in front of the medical hall, Xu Ming's eyes were filled with tears, and he choked up and said,
"It's good to be back! It's good to be back! "If you want to say that Xia Zhi's disappearance is indirectly related to the horse merchants, it has something to do with Xu Ming's, after all, it was he who stabbed Xia Zhi's cotton planting in front of Lin Yuntian, plus Xia Zhi is his most valued junior, and the worry and guilt in his heart can be imagined, so when he saw Xia Zhi come back safely, he cried with joy.
"Brother Xu, I haven't seen you for many years, but it's still the same!" Zheng Sheng saw Xu Ming wiping his tears, so he came out to divert the topic, and at this time, Xu Ming saw that it was not only Lin Yunlei who was with Xia Zhi, but also one more Zheng Sheng, and immediately laughed.
"Why did you kid come back!"
"It's something to come back to!" Zheng Sheng told about his encounter with Xia Zhi and the fact that Xia Zhi was his niece, which made Xu Ming sigh again and again, and even said that this was fate, and blood and family affection could not be separated.
"Grandpa, I'm in a hurry to go home, I can't stay here longer than you, I see that your medical hall is even a medicine boy on vacation, and there is no patient, so it is better to go back to Tianjia Village with me, and just get together with my uncle Uncle Lin, as well as my father and grandfather.
By the way, spend fifteen at my house. Originally, if there was no such thing this year, I was going to take you to my house for the New Year, but unfortunately there was such a thing, I myself was not able to celebrate the New Year at home, Grandpa Ma has a family there, I can't shout, but Grandpa you are very idle here! ”
Xia Zhi wanted to go home, but he also wanted to talk to Xu Ming, for Xia Zhi, Doctor Xu is also a relative, just saw Xu Ming's lonely figure working alone next to the medicine cabinet, Xia Zhi felt a little sour in his heart.
"Xia Solstice is right, this is still in the first month, there are very few people who want to come to see a doctor, Uncle Xu will go with us! I'm going to stay here for a while, and I didn't do a lot of things last year to find this little girl! Lin Yunlei was also on the side to help.
"This, this ......" Xu Ming was a little tempted by what Xia Zhi said.
"Okay, don't do this, godfather, hurry up and pack up and come with us! If you don't leave, you won't be able to eat dinner when you go back! "They just made do with a little at noon!
"Okay, you wait, I'll pack my things and go with you!" Xu Ming saw Xia Zhi's urging, so he made up his mind to pack up his things and prepare to follow Xia Zhi back to Tianjia Village.
When Xu Ming packed up, a group of people got into the carriage, and when they arrived in Niangniang Town, Lin Yunlei had already sent his subordinates to wait for him in the shop, and even Zheng Sheng and Tian Lidong abandoned their horses and got into the carriage.
Along the way, Xu Ming began to ask Xia Zhi if he had endured hardships, how he disappeared, and how he was rescued by Lin Yunlei, and later learned about the situation and comforted Xia Zhi a few words, and then talked to Zheng Sheng about the military camp, Zheng Sheng explained to him that since he left, Lin Yuntian had made some reforms to the military camp, and during the period, he also said that Xia Zhi was going to plant cotton on the wasteland behind the barracks.
As General Lin's subordinate, Xu Ming naturally knew General Lin's deathbed wishes, and he also appreciated the approach of the summer solstice.
Just walking around like this, Xia Zhi soon faintly saw Tianjia Village, and couldn't wait to stick out his head. entered Tianjia Village, waited at the door of Tian's house, and without waiting for the carriage to stop, she jumped out of the carriage in a hurry and shouted at the top of her voice,
"Grandpa, grandma, I'm back!"
The sound of the summer solstice can be described as a stone stirring up a thousand feet of waves, only to hear the courtyard suddenly, a shout sounded,
"Ahh This must be the little naughty one who stung him;
"Sixth sister is back!" The voice was flat, but it was difficult to hide the excitement, this must be a steady Tian Lichun;
"Sixth sister, where is the sixth sister!" is so babbling, except for Tian Xiaoman, who is energetic and loves to sleep lazy, there is no one else. ……
It's really heard without seeing her, this is so kind, this is her family! (To be continued......)
