After the year, on the second day of the first lunar month, when Zhao Yu took Jingnu to the North House for breakfast, he sensitively felt that today's atmosphere was a little dignified.

The source of this solemn atmosphere is his grandfather, Old Man Zhou, who stared at him and his eldest grandson Zhao Yin, as if he wanted to engrave the two grandsons in his heart, to be honest, Zhao Yu felt a little uncomfortable.

"What's going on?"

Zhao Yu is not easy to ask.

Subsequently, when the family had breakfast happily, Mrs. Zhou explained the reason for the incident: "Gongyu, I have been bothering you for so long, the old man and I should also go back to Yuncheng......

As soon as they heard this, the Luyang townsman and his wife Zhou were shocked, and Zhou immediately said, "Mother, let's stay a few more days......

The Marquis of Luyang also persuaded on the side: "Yes, mother, the affairs in the house were busy a year ago, and I couldn't find a chance to accompany the second elder, and I asked the second elder to help with the New Year's gift, there is no big event in the house after the New Year, our family ......"

He felt a little reluctant, after all, this time his father-in-law and mother-in-law came over - mainly this mother-in-law, not only did not have a good rest, but helped them a lot, such as the purchase of New Year's gifts, or this old lady and Zhou's together with Ye County, originally expected to be able to accompany the second elder after the New Year, but I didn't expect the second elder to be allowed to return to Yuncheng.

He felt indebted in his heart, but the old lady did not think so, and she was very happy to be able to help her son-in-law and daughter.

It's just that it's really time to go back.

Pressing her hand to comfort her son-in-law and daughter, the old lady smiled kindly: "Gongyu, don't feel sorry for it, at the age of the old body, you don't care about ordinary things, as long as you juniors are good...... The old man also wants to continue to live for a while, but it is really time to go back, because there are still some things, such as worshipping the ancestors of the Zhou family with the old man, and besides, the old man has to visit his old friends who are about to enter the earth, and at our age, we will see one side and one less side......"

When the old lady explained, the old man was silent, just looking at the two grandsons in front of him.

Seeing this, Zhou turned his head to look at the old man and persuaded, "Dad, will you stay a few more days?" ”

Old Man Zhou secretly glanced at his wife, and Nuo Nuo said, "That's ...... This will miss the festival day......"

"My daughter will go back to Yuncheng with your second elder, and when the time comes, my daughter will explain to my ancestor of the Zhou family......"

Hearing this, Old Man Zhou was a little moved, turned his head to look at his wife and said, "Old woman, my daughter said that she would go back to Yuncheng with us......"

The old lady just looked at her wife lightly: "If you delay the sacrifice day a little after the past year, you will scold, and say something, 'Do you want me to be the unfilial descendant of the Zhou family', this time it will be fine?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

The old man opened his mouth silently, speechless.

Seeing this, the Zhou family didn't know what the situation was, and persuaded his mother: "Mother, your second elder will stay for a few more days, and the daughter will take Yin'er and Yu'er brothers to Yuncheng together to worship the ancestors of the Zhou family with the second elder......"

Hearing this, the old man's face was moved, he turned his head to look at his wife, and said in a low voice: "The ancestor must also want to meet the two great-great-grandsons." ”

"You know again? Did your ancestors give you a dream? ”

The old lady glanced at the old man and said angrily, "Besides, what about your old friends who are about to breathe?" Not going? Those old men have seen each other less, and if you can't see each other because of the delay, don't regret it. ”

The old man hesitated, but after glancing at his two grandsons, he argued again: "It's a big deal to meet underground in a few years." ”

The old lady was angry, and after glancing at the old man, she turned her head to her son-in-law and daughter and said: "Don't take the old man's nonsense seriously, those old men have had a lifelong friendship with the old man, if you don't take advantage of their presence to meet a few times and live for a while, the old man will definitely complain about the old man in the future, complain about why the old man didn't dissuade him at that time, this old guy's temper, the old man has been with him all his life, it is too clear." …… In this way, let's go back to Yuncheng first, and prepare the sacrifices for the sacrifice, if my son wants to come, he can come in a few days, and after the sacrifice, the old man and I will visit some of his old friends......" After that, he turned his head to look at the old man and asked, "Old man, what do you see?" ”

"You've arranged it for me, what can I watch?" The old man said angrily.

Angry, when he turned his head to face the brothers, he still had the same kind face: "Yin'er, Yu'er, can you come to Yuncheng with your mother when the time comes?" There are many good treasures in the ancestral mansion, all of which were left by the ancients, and ordinary people's ancestors easily don't show them ......"

Zhao Yin has been on a good relationship with the old man these days, nodded and said with a smile: "As long as my father allows it." ”

Hearing this, the old man immediately turned his head to look at the Luyang townsman, and his kind face was immediately replaced by indifference.

Being stared at by the old father-in-law, the Marquis of Luyang immediately said: "Father, don't worry, when the time comes, the son-in-law will go to Yuncheng with his daughter and his second son......"

However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the old man: "As long as my daughter and my two grandsons come, you don't need to come." ”

The townsman of Luyang was choked and suddenly speechless, but fortunately, there was an old mother-in-law on the side to speak for him: "How can the old guy speak?" The son-in-law came to worship your ancestors, and you still pushed back. …… Gongyu, you don't have to worry about him, see how he dares to do then! ”

may have been glared at by his wife, and the old man didn't say anything anymore, just turned his head to look at Zhao Yu and asked, "What about Yu'er?" ”

Seeing everyone's eyes on him, Zhao Yu hesitated and said, "After the new year, the grandson will ...... There may be something wrong with leaving Luyang ......"

This euphemistic refusal disappointed the old man, and he glared at his son-in-law fiercely at the end.

On the same day, the old man reluctantly left the Xianghou Mansion with the old lady and returned to Yuncheng.

Before leaving, the old lady took the hands of her son-in-law and daughter and said: "Gongyu, my daughter is like an old body, her father is confused, only the old body knows what my daughter's temperament is, and the old body thanks you for tolerating her all these years......"

"Mother, what are you talking nonsense?" Zhou said with rare disgust: "How can anyone say this about his daughter? You don't know how virtuous your daughter is, right, husband? ”

Looking at his wife's smiling eyes, the Marquis of Luyang nodded solemnly.

The old lady was amused by the seriousness on her son-in-law's face, patted the back of her son-in-law's and daughter's hands and smiled: "That's good, that's good, the old man and the old body, now there is only one wish left, I hope you juniors are well." …… By the way, Gongyu, count the days, your two brothers should have already received the letter from home at this time, if they send the reply letter to Yuncheng, turn around and ask the domestic servant to send it. But when the two of them bring the food, I'm afraid it will take a few months, so don't worry. ”

The Marquis of Luyang hurriedly said: "Thank you mother, my son-in-law will also prepare the money for the purchase of grain as soon as possible." ”

"That's not in a hurry."

The old lady smiled and waved her hand: "It's all my own family, don't care too much." …… The second child has a lazy personality, and he has done nothing in Dingtao over the years, but the boss has done a good job in Xuzhou, and you two will talk about it with letters when you go back, you are also his brother-in-law, and he will not ignore you. ”

Listening to such heart-warming words, the Luyang townsman was really moved in his heart.

As the old lady said when she left, within a few days, the old man Zhou and the old lady's second son, that is, Zhao Yu's second uncle Zhou Fu, sent a letter from Dingtao County, and the servants of the Zhou family sent it to the Hou Mansion of Luyang Township.

The letter to the effect that Dingtao and Caoxian have also been affected by drought in recent years, although considering that Dingtao is a more prosperous county than Yuncheng, and the counties and cities will naturally not be short of grain, but the price is on the high side, Zhou Fu thinks that it is not worth purchasing in large quantities, so he only purchased 50,000 stone for Luyang Township, and the rest, he is ready to go to Puyang and even Hebei to see if he can get a batch of low-cost grain for his brother-in-law.

In addition, he also advised the Marquis of Luyang to wait for the news of his eldest brother Zhou Yun, after all, Zhou Yun is in Xuzhou, and Xuzhou has always been a county rich in grain and rice, and the local rice price is naturally much cheaper than that in the mainland.

After learning of this, Zhao Yu was also quite surprised.

You must know that the county treasury of the entire Luyang County only has 80,000 or 90,000 stone of grain at most, and his second uncle is ready to transport 50,000 stone without blinking his eyes, and he also said that he will use this grain first to deal with emergencies, which makes Zhao Yu feel the strong financial resources of the Zhou family again.

"It turns out that my mother is from a rich family?" He laughed and joked with his mother, Zhou.

Zhou smiled and tapped his son's head, and teased: "Then do you want to have a good relationship with your grandfather and go to Yuncheng with us in a few days?" ”

Zhao Yu thought about it, and immediately shook his head and said, "No, the child still has something." ”

Regarding what his son said, 'something', in fact, the Luyang Township Marquis and his wife can more or less guess it, it is nothing more than looking for an opportunity to pay tribute to the father and son of the Marquis of Ruyang.

In fact, this matter, the family talked about it during the Chinese New Year, and the opinions of the Luyang Township Marquis are more conservative, thinking that more things are better than less things, unless Ruyang Hou continues to be entangled, don't take the initiative to provoke, after all, people do have a big business.

But the old man supports his little grandson Zhao Yu - just humiliate my son-in-law, dare to humiliate my grandson, this is okay?!

As for the opinions of the old lady and the Zhou family, they are more in the middle, they think that although there is no need to completely tear the skin with the Ruyang Hou Mansion, a certain degree of return is also needed, otherwise the Ruyang Hou father and son will not become more and more unscrupulous?

Although the Zhou family does not have a famous marquis, the huge family business makes them not afraid of the nominal marquis of Ruyang.

The support of the second elder of the Zhou family made Zhao Yu feel more and more confident.

When the Luyang Township Marquis and his wife took Zhao Yin to Yuncheng, Zhao Yu stayed at home every day, bored and followed Zhang Ji and Ma Cheng to exercise his martial arts, and at the same time sent people to pay attention to him in Luyang.

However, this wait was a full month......
