Chapter 37: The heart is separated from the belly
"Sister, the shop key on the left is here."
"Sister, the key to the shop on the right is here."
Chu Yue and Zhang Dagongzi took the keys from the hands of the two little ones and opened the doors of the two shops at the same time.
At the same time, he turned his head and looked at Yunxi and smiled:
"Let's go in and have a look, Yundong family."
Yunxi entered the shop and saw that it was empty and there was nothing, just enough for her to put the new furniture in again.
I looked at the front, and then went to the backyard, fortunately, there was a backyard in two shops.
Kitchen in the backyard, and where to stay.
I think it used to be lived by people who worked in the past.
It was equally empty, with nothing.
After watching Yunxi, Zhang Dagongzi introduced her to a shop that made excellent furniture.
So, I followed Mr. Zhang and ordered the furniture to be used in the shop.
In order to express his gratitude, Yunxi invited Mr. Zhang to have dinner at Meiweixuan.
No, Zhang Dagongzi refused with a smile.
"My wife and I agreed to go home and have dinner with her."
"Say hello to the young lady on my behalf."
Hearing Zhang Dagongzi mention Mrs. Zhang, Yunxi thought of the little Zhang family's little son.
I don't know what he looks like now.
Glancing at Yunxi's expression, Zhang Dagongzi knew what she was thinking.
So, under Chu Yue's obviously hostile gaze, he smiled and took out a painting scroll from his wide sleeve pocket.
The middle is tied with a small rope.
Yunxi took it with a bright smile.
I couldn't wait to untie the rope and unfold it slowly, for fear of damaging the painting.
Gradually, a little fat man who was sleeping with his eyes closed jumped on the white paper.
"Wow, sister, whose little brother is this, so fat and cute."
Yun Song stood on tiptoe, poked his little head to take a look, and was attracted by the little fat man's naΓ―ve.
Yunmei hurriedly pulled the corner of Yunxi's clothes.
"Sister, I want to see it too."
Yunxi hurriedly squatted down to make it easier for his younger brother and sister to look at the painting.
"Wow, who's this little brother?
Looks so cute, did he grow up eating cuteness?
Sister, look at his arms, they are fat in sections, which are comparable to the lotus couples bought in the market. β
"This is the little son of Mr. Zhang's family, cute."
Unexpectedly, Yun Song and Yun Mei also liked the little son of the Zhang family, which was really unexpected by Yunxi.
"It's a dog.
Nicknamed Brother Le. β
"Can I meet Brother Le?"
Yun Song liked this fat brother on the drawing paper so much, he raised his head without thinking about it, and asked Zhang Dagongzi with a serious face.
Zhang Dagongzi smiled:
"Of course you can, when the moon is full, I'll send you an invitation."
"Okay, I'll definitely have a gift for Brother Le'er."
Yun Song clapped his little hands happily.
Yun Mei heard it and nodded.
Hearing that Zhang Dagongzi said to send them an invitation, Yunxi couldn't hide the smile on his face.
"Master Zhang, I will definitely take my younger brothers and sisters to see the young lady and Le'er together."
"Why didn't you invite me and my brother?"
Does this Zhang Dagongzi have a problem with his eyes, can't he see him and his eldest brother standing on the side?
Chu Yue glanced at the smiling Zhang Dagongzi from the corner of her eyes.
"Okay, let's go, my name is Zhang Xiumo, may I ask you?"
"My name is Chu Yue, and my brother's name is Chu Yue."
Chu Yue also reported Chu Yue's name.
"Your surname is Chu?"
Zhang Xiumo's expression was grim.
Chu is the surname of the country, he wouldn't be so coincidental and meet the emperor's relatives, right?
Looking at Chu Yue's dress as a mountain villager, and then looking at Chu Yue's appearance as a hanger, Zhang Xiumo felt that he was thinking too much.
Thinking of this, he instantly returned to his original state.
Chu Yueman nodded indifferently.
"That's right."
Chu is the surname of the country, so how about recognizing it.
Anyway, he won't change his surname, and he won't change his name.
Chu Yue thought straightly.
Seeing Zhang Xiumo's small movements for a moment, Chu Yue felt that he was extremely thoughtful.
I don't know if it's friend or foe?
But it's always good to be careful.
"Thank you for the painting, I will collect it."
After hearing Zhang Xiumo say that he would give this painting to himself, Yunxi thanked him happily.
After separating from Zhang Xiumo, Yunxi and his party saw that it was almost time for lunch, so they hurried to the direction of Qingxiang Hukou.
Coincidentally, Yunxi and the others walked to the mouth of Qingxiang Hutong and met Dr. Li who was walking towards the jujube tree with a crooked neck.
"Uncle Li, wait for us."
"Yunxi, where did you come from?"
Dr. Li carried his hands behind his back, squinted his eyes and swept Yunxi and the others, and finally fixed his gaze on Yunxi.
"I just finished eating and went to Renhetang to talk to you about this."
Yunxi took a few people, quickened her pace, and simply told Zhang Dagongzi about helping her find a shop.
When Dr. Li heard this, he immediately nodded with satisfaction.
"Yes, Xiumo, this kid is faster than the old man."
"Yes."
Yunxi echoed.
When the group returned home, before they sat down, Zhang Xiulan beckoned Yunxi into the kitchen and brought it out, ready to eat.
Chu Yue hurriedly asked Yunxi to sit down and rest.
"Xi'er, you sit and rest for a while, and Chu Yue and I will go to the kitchen to serve food."
"Me?"
Chu Yue, who had just sat down, pointed at the tip of her nose in disbelief and asked Chu Yue in disbelief.
Chu Yue nodded affirmatively:
"Aren't you called Chu Yue?"
"Young Master Ben has never done anything."
Chu Yue jumped up suddenly.
When Yunxi and the others heard this, they were immediately frightened by Chu Yue's words.
Is he a young master?
Chu Yue is his brother, so isn't Chu Yue also a young master?
Yun Shun was anxious, and hurriedly looked at Chu Yue, who was tall and standing like a poplar tree, and asked in disbelief:
"Chu Yue, have you found your family?"
Chu Yue was really lucky, found his family, and had roots.
Thinking that he is still a lonely old man, he doesn't even know what his surname is, and whether he has any family.
Thinking about it, Yun Shun sighed secretly in his heart.
Yun Xi saw it and knew that Yun Shun thought of his own life experience, so he quickly got up and went over to comfort Yun Shun:
"Dad, you still have us and my mother."
"Dad, you still have me and my second sister, eldest sister, mother, second uncle and second aunt, and my grandfather's family."
Yun Song ran over, reached out and wrapped his arms around Yun Shun, and pressed his little head tightly against his arm.
Yun Mei also ran over and hugged Yun Shun's arm on the other side.
Zhang Xiulan and her second aunt Li Aihua, who came out with the dishes, were a little strange when they saw it.
"What's wrong with you?"
Could it be that going to see the shop in the morning didn't go well?
Or is there less money?
Zhang Xiulan glanced at the two pieces of cloth and a bulging cloth bag that Yunxi brought back, and said in her heart, Xi'er is messing with money again.
"Mother, Dad saw that Brother Chu Yue found his younger brother, and Dad was homesick."
When Zhang Xiulan heard this, her eyes couldn't help but turn red all of a sudden.
Afraid that Yunxi and the others would see it, they hurriedly lowered their heads and put the vegetables.
When she looked up again, she smiled at Yunxi's side:
"I heard from the people of Yunjia Village, your father was three or four years old and lived in Yunjia Village."
"Three or four?"
Chu Yue, who was grabbed by Chu Yue and brought into the kitchen to serve food, had a childish face, and when he heard this, his eyes lit up suddenly.
"Uncle Yun, do you remember when you were a child?"
If he is not mistaken, the little young master of the Li family in the capital has been lost since he was a child.
The Li family sent people to search for more than 30 years, but they did not find it.
It's just that I don't know if Uncle Yun, who has a black face in front of him, is the person the Li family is looking for?
Thinking about it, Chu Yue planned to write a letter back to his friend Li Zixuan after eating to ask about his uncle's disappearance.
"I'm not impressed."
After thinking for a while, Yun Shun didn't think of anything.
Some were lost, some were sad and shook their heads.
Chu Yue Chu Yue made Yun Shun sad, and immediately gave him a stern look, Chu Yue shrank her neck in fright, and didn't dare to say more.
Honestly go into the kitchen to help serve the food.
"Dad, don't be sad, look at us, isn't it good to be a family together?"
Although Yunxi said so, in his heart, he began to think about how to help his father find his family.
"It's time to eat, come to the table."
Zhang Xiulan set up her chopsticks and shouted loudly.
Yunxi, Yunsong, and Yunmei helped Yunshun get up.
Helped him step by step to the dining table.
After he sat down, Yunxi walked to the empty seat beside Yunmei and sat down.
"Dad, my mother and my second aunt burned stewed chicken at noon, as well as boiled fish fillets.
Great, my family eats fish and meat every day. β
Yun Mei ate the chicken leg that Yun Shun put in her bowl.
The mouth is full, and the voice is slurred.
In Yun Song's bowl, there is also a chicken leg.
He is different from Yunmei, he holds the chicken leg in his hand and eats it in small bites, and his eating appearance is particularly elegant.
I don't know who I learned it from.
Yunxi was thinking about it, but unexpectedly, there was an extra piece of crispy chicken with a spicy aroma in the bowl.
Raise your eyes to Chu Yue's smiling eyes:
"Thank you."
"Do you want to eat crispy chicken skin?"
The voice as warm as jade was as comfortable as a breeze blowing into Yunxi's ears.
She chuckled.
"Wow, big brother, you serve vegetables for Sister Xi'er, why don't you give your brother and me vegetables?"
Chu Yue shouted exaggeratedly, and immediately attracted the attention of everyone at the dinner table.
Chu Yue glared at Chu Yue angrily, and his voice was suddenly as cold as the wind:
"You can't clip yourself, won't you?"
When Dr. Li and the others heard it, they couldn't help but bow their heads and laugh.
Yun Shun and his second uncle Zhang Yun greeted Dr. Li.
"Doctor Li, whatever you like to eat, just clip it, don't be polite at my house."
"The old man is thick-skinned, and he will clip whatever he likes to eat."
As soon as Chu Yue heard what Doctor Li meant, she immediately stiffened her neck and retorted.
"Doctor Li, who are you insinuating about?"
"The old man said himself."
Doctor Li was eating the dishes in the bowl, and after saying this, he no longer paid attention to Yunxi.
"I can't stop you from eating."
Chu Yue snorted coldly.
Chu Yue was suddenly stunned and ate honestly.
After the meal, he said something was wrong and trotted back to the yard next door.
Yunxi and the others sat in the hall drinking tea and chatting.
took the opportunity to tell Mrs. Xia that she gave pastries and did not share them with Dr. Li.
Unexpectedly, Dr. Li didn't care about waving his hand.
"The old man doesn't like to eat sweet."
Originally, Mrs. Xia specially asked Yunxi to bring it back, he is an old fellow, what do you want these pastries to do.
"However, there are two hundred taels of silver tickets in the paper wrapped in the pastries."
"I know that."
"You know that?"
Seeing Dr. Li's calm look, Yunxi confirmed that he knew.
However, "Uncle Li, how do you know?" β
Yunxi was curious.
They went in and out together, and they had no chance to contact Mrs. Xia alone.
In response to Yunxi's doubts, Dr. Li smiled and took out a decorated invitation from his wide sleeves.
Smiled and handed it to Yunxi.
Seeing that Yunxi hesitated, he didn't answer.
Dr. Li handed the invitation to Yunxi again.
Yunxi blinked, looking puzzled:
"Uncle Li, here?"
"Can't you just open it and see it?"
"That's what Uncle said."
Yunxi took the invitation at this time, opened it and took a look, it turned out that Mrs. Xia invited her to come over to the house three days later.
After calculating the time, Yunxi thought that the furniture shop would also send the cabinet to the shop in three days.
This time just overlapped, and Yunxi apologized and declined.
"Uncle Li, I'm afraid I won't be able to go to Xia Mansion.
Three days later, it happened to be the furniture store that delivered the goods to my shop. β
"That's right." Dr. Li stroked his beard thoughtfully.
"Okay, I'll take some time to go to the Xia Mansion to explain the situation to Old Madam Xia."
Seeing that Dr. Li's tone was so serious, Yunxi felt that the identity of this old lady Xia was not simple.
Thinking that her shot was five hundred taels, Yunxi thought, it was better to stay away from her.
After making up his mind, Yunxi talked to Dr. Li about what happened in Renhetang today.
