Chapter 76 (Finale)

Previous Chapter

On the carriage, Ye Xun rested his head on Ruolian's legs, and his legs rested on Qiu Tong's legs. Wakaren gave him a gentle head, and Qiu Tong thumped his legs. Ye Xun couldn't help but laugh when he closed his eyes, he felt that he was the happiest person in the world......

When he went to Yunnan, Ye Xun's family loaded a total of four carriages with luggage and soft belts. Although the road was far away, because they were not in a hurry, and with the survey sent by the military department, they could live at the post stations along the way, so they did not have a hard time along the way. Whenever they went to a post station, Ye Xun and his party would be warmly received by the post station officials. If the scenery is good, or the folk customs are unique, they will rest for a few more days before hitting the road......

After traveling for more than two months, they finally arrived at their destination. Ye Xun didn't want to disturb the local officials, so he went directly to the mansion that Chengzhong pointed to them. It is a somewhat historical building, majestic and tall, with many houses, and the stone walls and reliefs on the eaves are peacocks or elephants, which is very exotic. After the group sighed, Ruolian settled the old man and instructed everyone to pack their luggage. The children seemed to be tireless, and were pleasantly surprised to run around the courtyard......

Ye Xun checked room by room, and couldn't believe that this was their home in the future. When he was tired of seeing, he sat down under a stone pillar and pondered with his cheeks rested. Qiu Tong, who was carrying his luggage to the house, felt very funny when he saw him, so he said to Ruolian who was not far away, "Sister, look at him!" ”

Ruolian turned her head and smiled dotingly, "Look at his stupidity! ”

Ye Xun heard the two of them talking about himself, and looked up and asked in confusion, "Is there a mistake?" This can't be the palace of Yunnan, right? ”

Wakaren and Akiri laughed......

The next day, early in the morning, officials rushed to visit after hearing the news. Ye Xun pushed it all and asked his subordinates to reply that he and his family were happy and quiet, and would not receive visitors.

After breakfast, Xiaohu came to report, "Young master, I inquired about the Ye family's residence in Canglan, which is only a few miles away from us. And I also heard that Ye Zhengye is now worried at home. ”

Ye Xun was taken aback, "Ding worried? Who died? ”

"Lord Ye's mother died the year before last."

"The second aunt died? That must have happened not long after my eldest brother returned from the capital. The eldest brother has better things to do at home. Xiaohu, you go and tell Madame, let them clean up, and let's leave in a while. ”

Ye Xun took Ruolian, Qiu Tong and a few children in a carriage and rushed to the Ye family's mansion. Because he was afraid of an emergency, Ye Xun did not bring his father. When he arrived at the gate of the Ye family, Ye Xun was as worried as beating a drum. He was so nervous that his palms were sweaty, and he went to grab Ruolian's hand and ask for encouragement.

Ruolian held his hand, "It's okay, isn't Brother Ye Zheng at home?" ”

Ye Xun exhaled and nodded, "Xiaohu, you go and report it first." ”

Not long after the report, Ye Zheng hurried out in a home robe, "Ye Xun! It's really you! ”

"Brother!" Ye Xun was pleasantly surprised.

Ruolian beckoned to the children who were playing, "Children, come here, call uncle!" ”

"Hello uncle!"

"It's so good, they've grown so big. The last time I saw it, it was all small. Let's go, let's go inside! Don't stay outside. Ye Zheng beckoned everyone into the house.

Ye Xun looked around cautiously as he walked inside, "Sister-in-law and children are not at home?" ”

"Oh, they went to the nearby market early in the morning."

"Where's the second uncle?"

"He recently went to the temple for fasting, and he was very speculative with a monk in the nearby temple."

"It's all up to you at home." Ye Xun seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

Ye Zheng saw through his thoughts at a glance, and said deliberately, "My family is myself, but the fourth uncle's house is nearby, and their family is here." I'll show you and his house in a moment. ”

"Fourth uncle's house? Don't be in a hurry. Ye Xun said with an unnatural expression.

Ye Zheng lowered his head and smiled, no longer teasing him.

A few people entered the living room, the next people served refreshments, and Qiu Tong and Xiaohu took the children to the garden to play. In the hall sat only Ye Zheng, Ye Xun and Ruolian.

Ye Zheng looked at the two of them and said with a smile, "I'm worried at home, and I can't see the palace newspaper from the imperial court, so I don't know much about it, I just heard that we are going to have a 'Canglan King' here, but I didn't expect it to be you?" ”

Ye Xun was shocked, "'Canglan King'? Oh my! Who passed this on? I want to live another two years! I just came here to hide and be quiet, I didn't want to care about anything, I just wanted my family to live a comfortable life for a few days. ”

"You don't have to worry, it's just what the people here call casually, this place is so far away from the capital, it shouldn't reach the emperor's ears. I've heard about you, and I know that you've suffered a lot in the past two years. ”

Ye Xun was suddenly very moved, but he smiled indifferently, "It's all over, and the good days will start soon." By the way, why did the second aunt die? ”

"My mother has been in poor health all these years and always coughs. The year before last, I just contracted a cold, but it didn't get good again and again, I saw a lot of doctors, and I went after a few months. Ye Zheng said with a gloomy expression.

"Brother, I'm sorry, it reminds you of your second aunt again, and it makes you sad."

Ye Zheng shook his head, "It's all over." It was quite peaceful when my mother went. ”

"Brother, let's go to the ancestral hall in a while to put incense on the second aunt. I...... I want to take my family to our ancestral hall and kowtow to the pillar incense, I don't know if it's okay? ”

"This ......" Ye Zheng seemed to be very embarrassed.

"Which uncle is the patriarch of our family now? Can you go and talk to him about it for me? Or take me to see him. Ye Xun asked cautiously.

"You just want to go to the ancestral hall to kowtow and incense, you have no other plans, right?" Ye Zheng asked.

Ye Xun looked at Ruolian and didn't know how to speak. Ruolian couldn't help but say, "Brother, in fact, we want to ...... this time."

Ye Xun shook his head at her and interrupted her, "Forget it, let's not talk about it yet." I think let's go to the ancestral hall and kowtow, my brother is very embarrassed, so let's take a long-term view in the future, let's take our time. Brother, we want to go to the ancestral hall today to kowtow to the ancestors and put incense on the pillars. Take us to the patriarch for a discussion. ”

Ye Zheng smiled mysteriously, "You don't need to tell others, you just tell me." ”

"Why?" Ye Xun asked puzzled.

"Because...... I am now the patriarch of the Ye family. After Ye Zheng finished speaking, he couldn't help but smile.

Ye Xun was stunned for a long time, and only smiled and said with disgust, "Brother! You just deliberately scared me! ”

Ye Zheng smiled and nodded, "I have already discussed with the old people in the clan, and I will choose a good day to welcome your family into the family tree." On that day, the whole clan would gather together to eat a hundred family banquets and drink happily......"

Ye Xun covered his face excitedly, not wanting others to see his tears of happiness. Ruolian looked at Ye Xun and said to Ye Zheng excitedly, "Brother, is this true?" That's great! This is Ye Xun's biggest knot! ”

"Haha......" Ye Zheng smiled heartily, "You're all 'Canglan King', aren't you?" ”

"Brother, don't mention this again. Ruolian, my gratitude to my brother is beyond words, we must kowtow to my brother together......"

Ye Xun dragged Ruolian and was about to kowtow, Ye Zheng hurriedly got up to help them, "What is this for?" Get up! It's all a family, what's polite? ”

On this day, accompanied by the sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers, Ye Xun's family bowed down to their ancestors surrounded by hundreds of people in the whole clan, and added their family's name to the family tree...... Ye Xun was very grateful to Ye Zheng for giving them a grand initiation ceremony. After the ceremony, Ye Xun insisted on holding a banquet in his new mansion. He felt that his place was spacious, and he wanted people to recognize the door, and at the same time he wanted to treat everyone well.

The feast begins at the beginning of the sunset. A feldspar table that is almost impossible to see is full of wild game and delicacies. The clansmen of the Ye family sat around, laughing and drinking, and the children were chasing and running around during the banquet...... Laughter fills the entire compound......

The setting sun shines through the clouds, emitting a golden light, shining on the historic stone walls and eaves ridges to look magnificent and sacred. A few white clouds on the horizon are like bright and dazzling colored satin against the background of the colorful sunset. The vast mountains in the distance, the birds returning late, are like a beautiful picture...... The setting sun was reflected on people's faces, gilding their smiling faces with a halo of golden, red and happiness. No matter how unpredictable and unpredictable the situation is outside, at this moment in this small city in Yunnan, it is peaceful and warm......
