"You were a resident of this place more than twenty years ago?" Looking at the man in front of him who was called Cheng Blind, Chen Mo frowned, and he had no impression of the person in front of him.

"My mother-in-law is the one who originally lived here, and I came with her." Cheng Blind was quite restrained: "When the Taiping Sect was in turmoil, when it was killed here, Zhuangzi was already in a mess, my mother-in-law had just killed her son, and her man was also hacked to death, I couldn't bear to save her, and followed me, and then the Taiping Sect was defeated, I was blind, and I was detained as a thief, and I couldn't be a soldier, so I followed my mother-in-law back here to settle down." ”

"Can you let me see it?" Chen Mo asked with a smile.

Cheng Blind nodded, and hurriedly entered the house to call his mother-in-law out, the woman who was already in her forties looked older than Li Zheng, and when she saw Chen Mo, she was a little dazed.

"Aunt Zhang?" Chen Mo looked at the old woman and could vaguely recognize some of her previous appearance.

"Housheng, you are ......" Aunt Zhang obviously didn't recognize Chen Molai, after all, when she left her hometown, she was still a half-old child, but now she has passed and stood up.

"Presumptuous, this is ......" Dian Wei on the side frowned, this woman is so unruly.

"Shut up." Chen Mo glared at him, turned his head to look at the woman, and said, "Chen Mo, Chen Ergou." ”

"Ergou, you...... Neither...... I didn't mean to ...... back then" Aunt Zhang was a little at a loss, she still remembered that she scolded Chen Mo and his mother because of her son's death, she thought that Chen Mo was coming back to seek revenge.

"Auntie, I'm also uncomfortable with Ado's death." Chen Mo soothed: "If the dearest relatives die, everyone will go crazy, this time I came back, just to come to the house to see, are there any villagers alive, Da Lang and Dumb are now by my side, Da Lang is now a general, and Dumb, he is also a great figure in Luoyang now." ”

Under Chen Mo's comfort, the woman finally calmed down, but then she cried bitterly, the memories of that year were not good, the whole Zhuangzi, who is alive now, may be just a few, seeing Chen Mo, I can't help but think of the son who died back then, as well as the unbearable past of the year.

After the "second ......" cried, Aunt Zhang gradually calmed down, looked at Chen Mo, and opened her mouth, but she felt that it was a little inappropriate to call Ergou again, and it was a little disrespectful to call her name, after all, Chen Mo's identity is different from the past, and he can't call it casually.

"My cousin is a cousin, and my aunt can call me a cousin." Chen Mo smiled.

"Bo Dao, you ...... now? Out of luck? Aunt Zhang said a little reservedly.

"Well, I was also lucky, I lost a celebrity as a teacher, and then I entered the official career." Chen Mo didn't say his identity, he knew very well that for the villagers, what the general and the Marquis of Changling were, and they didn't have a concept.

"That's good, we have a big man in the village." Aunt Zhang was a little sad, although Chen Mo didn't say it explicitly, but Da Lang and Dumb now have official bodies, presumably it is also Chen Mo's credit, think about it, in the entire village, Chen Mo is literate, and he has been sensible since he was a child, and he looks different from other children, if his son is still alive, maybe he can also mix with an official body.

"Mother, who's here?" was reminiscing about the old room, but saw another family running over in a hurry, a peasant woman looked at Chen Mo with some fear, and when she saw Chen Mo coming over, she hurriedly bowed her head and saluted.

"Come on, this is the one who went out of our village, who used to grow up with your brother, and now he is also a big man." Aunt Zhang hurriedly pulled the peasant woman to her side and said to Chen Mo: "Bodao, this is my daughter, call someone quickly." ”

But it was Aunt Zhang's daughter who later followed Cheng Blind, who looked acceptable, with a little restraint and fear in her eyes, and hurriedly gave a salute when she heard the words.

"No need to be polite." Chen Mo stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "I am an old friend with Ado, and it is not an exaggeration for you to call me a brother." ”

"The women of the people dare not climb high." The woman hurriedly bowed her head and said.

"This time I came back, I was passing by here, and I didn't bring anything, there is a jade pendant here, the right to do it is a meeting gift, if you need help in the future, you can take this thing to find that Xia Qiu Ling, I have some friendship with him." Chen Mo touched his body, took out a jade pendant from his waist, handed it to the woman and smiled.

"Don't thank you yet!" The woman was ignorant, but the one on the side was knowledgeable, and she could see at a glance that this jade pendant was extraordinary, which could not be bought with money outside, and it was also engraved with Chen Mo's seal, which was a symbol of status in many cases.

The young woman was ignorant, but she was also accustomed to obedience and thanked Chen Mo.

"That's it." Chen Mo waved his hand, got up and looked at everyone: "I don't have to stay much when I am on official business, I will inform Xia Qiuling later, and my aunt can go to him if she has something." ”

"Bo Dao is leaving?" Aunt Zhang got up a little reluctantly and said, after all, Chen Mo and these people are her few old acquaintances, and they feel a little like her mother's family.

"Well, it's inconvenient to stay longer, auntie take care of herself, I will bring my mother back to see when I have time in the future." Chen Mo smiled and nodded.

"Come back and see more." Aunt Zhang kept sending Chen Mo outside the village and shouted reluctantly.

"Auntie, please come back." Chen Mo got on the frame, waved at her and smiled.

Aunt Zhang kept watching the convoy go away, and then she reluctantly came back.

In the carriage, Dian Wei looked at Chen Mo with some curiosity: "Since the lord is old, why don't you send it to the county seat to take care of it?" ”

"Helping people needs to have a degree, this township people, have their simple side, but the human heart is the most difficult to control, if not, maybe not too much, but if there is a good, often want to be better, now is just right, later notify that Xiaqiu Ling to take care of one or two, so that they can have a better life, ordinary people for a lifetime, in fact, if they are not greedy, they can eat and drink enough, and there is a hope for the future, it is enough." Chen Mo smiled and shook his head, it's not that he wants to put up a fight, it's just that he doesn't want to help an enemy, this big man is different from Dumb's situation, sometimes, not at the same level, it is difficult to really get along.

"Everything is learned, and General Dian has to come to meet with some relatives and friends on weekdays, right?" Xu Shu said with a smile.

"It's a bit of trouble!" Dian Wei thought about it, although he was a little ruthless, but many times it was not that he didn't want to help, but that he helped him, some people would take your kindness for granted, Dian Wei was brave and good at fighting, and he was not afraid of the enemy, but for these relatives and friends, sometimes it was really annoying.

"You have to make a rule." Chen Mo patted Dian Wei's shoulder and said, "It's not bad to be able to meet the old man this time." ”

It may be difficult to come back in the future, to be honest, there is nothing to worry about, although there is a surprise to be able to reunite with Aunt Zhang, but it is like a wish, his home, after all, is no longer here, and the nostalgia for his hometown has gradually disappeared with this return, just like the dilapidated hometown, in fact, I really saw it, but I didn't miss it too much.

After the group left Xiaqiu, they soon entered the territory of Xiapi, and Chen Qi, who had already received the news, had already sent someone to greet him, although he had never been here, but after all, it was the blood of the Chen family, Chen Mo also returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors this time, when he really saw the elderly Chen Qi, many of the dissatisfaction and resentment in the past finally dissipated most of them, after all, Chen Deng did provide him with a lot of help when he needed it most, no matter what the reason was, but Chen Mo has today, and the Chen family secretly helped him a lot.
