Chapter 40: Returning Home

The Wu family in Liuzhi Lane is very famous, and it can be said that it is a household name in the entire Longtan County, but it is not famous, because his fame is just a joke in everyone's mouth, just like those Internet celebrities who pretend to be stupid and infinitely lower their IQ, they are famous but not famous.

It's just that I don't know why Xia Gong in the eyes of everyone walked to this Wu family as soon as he came back, but after this night, the sadness on the faces of the Wu family was much less, and he didn't seem to be worried about the stupid son of his family who was robbed up the mountain by the bandits, and everything seemed to have returned to its former peace after that night.

From time to time, you can still see the grandmother of the Wu family coming out with a cane to bask in the sun in the yard to tease the two little granddaughters, and the aunt of the Wu family also began to walk the streets and alleys to wash people's clothes.

Someone with good deeds asked her what Xia Gong told his family that night, and the aunt of the Wu family smiled and said nothing.

Xia Gong didn't stay long in Wu's house that night, and came out in less than a cup of tea, and then went to Wangjiang Tower with everyone.

Xia Gong is kind and angry, and he doesn't have the frame of a generation of emperors, and he pushes the cup and changes the lamp until his old man goes home drunk, and no one dares to ask him what the old man is doing at Wu's house.

Although this thing made everyone curious, but in just two or three days, everyone forgot about the Wu family's affairs outside the clouds.

In fact, the old man didn't say anything when he went to Wu's house, but just brought a message for Wu Zheng, saying that he was fine now so that the family didn't have to worry. As for why he went to Willow Branch Lane as soon as he entered the city, it was just because of the way.

In the cottage, Wu Zheng stood in the courtyard and looked at the apricot tree in the corner of the courtyard, the last yellow leaf on the treetop was carried away by the autumn wind, and he couldn't help but tighten his clothes in the wind.

It's getting colder and colder, and I'm afraid it will snow in a few days, but Seinfeld, who went down the mountain to sell salted fish, hasn't come back yet.

It stands to reason that with Seinfeld and Liu Wen, it won't cost much to sell a salted fish! But he hasn't come back for half a month, which makes Wu Zheng a little worried about whether his wife should be arrested by the government and sent to the kiln!

After all, her identity as a lady is not visible, the big boss of the dignified Shenmu Village, Longtan County from the history of the assassin to the county government to arrest her, who doesn't want her to be brought to justice.

"Brother Liu, Liu Mang...... Liu Er is in charge! Wu Zheng stood in front of the courtyard wall with Liu's chest high and shouted towards the courtyard next door.

After a while, Liu Mang, who was sleepy and fluffy, walked out of the room with a yawn, rubbed his eyes and said to Wu Zheng: "Uncle, why did you get up so early on this cold day?" ”

"Liu, I want to go down the mountain to have a look, will you go?"

Liu Mang was stunned: "Down the mountain?" ”

"Fei'er and your father haven't come back yet, so aren't you worried?"

Liu Mang smiled when he heard this: "Uncle, you forgot that the brothers picked up the refined salt that came down the mountain, and if they wanted to sell the refined salt, they had to go to Lingjiang to collect fish, and then make the fish into salted fish, so that they could find buyers, and there were many things before and after!" How could you come back so soon? ”

"But it's been half a month."

Liu Mang touched his chin and said, "It's a little unsettling, but uncle, you just go down the mountain, but if I leave, who will come to see the house?" ”

Wu Zheng stopped talking nonsense and went out, Liu Mang saw that he was alone and didn't even bring a burden, so he was in a hurry, so he stopped him and said, "Uncle, this is in a hurry to leave?" Don't bring a little bit of stuff or something? ”

Wu Zheng said with a smile: "My family is in Longtan County, what do I bring with me." ”

After saying that, Wu Zheng left, but suddenly remembered something, hurriedly ran back to the house and took out the six sweet potatoes, handed them to Liu Mang's hand and said: "Brother Liu, these six sweet potatoes are troublesome people to help me take care of them, whether our brothers in the village can walk on the streets of Longtan County openly depends on it." ”

What Wu Zheng said to Master Xia in the courtyard that day, Liu Mang, who lived next door, naturally heard it, and at this time he couldn't help asking: "Is this thing really auspicious?" ”

"Of course, it's more real than real gold, it's done! We can not only rely on it to make a fortune in the future, salted fish is really just a small fight, this is our big sale in the future. Don't eat it with a greedy appetite. ”

Seeing that Wu Zheng said seriously, Liu Mang couldn't help but straighten his chest and said, "Uncle, don't worry, this thing will be handed over to Liu Mou to ensure that it will not be lost in the slightest." ”

Wu Zheng took a black horse from the stable in the stockade, and then went down the mountain all the way to the dust.

When Wu Zheng immediately looked at Longtan County below the mountain from the top of the mountain, he realized that this Longtan County was much larger than he imagined, very similar to the Chongqing he knew, but it seemed too small compared to the Chongqing of later generations.

But in this era, it is in the mountains of Bashu, a city with a population of nearly 100,000, and it is definitely a big city.

It's ridiculous that when I heard Longtan County before, I always thought that it was only one street, but I forgot that Longtan County is also the capital of Yuzhou, and the location of Yuzhou's Thorn History.

When it was dark, Wu Zheng arrived in Longtan County, and instead of looking for Seinfeld, he came all the way to Liuzhi Lane, but stopped at the mouth of Liuzhi Lane.

As the saying goes, he is very timid in his hometown, for Wu Zheng, his heart is very timid, because he hasn't figured out how to face the aunt and grandmother of the Wu family, to be honest, he doesn't have a little memory of these two people now, but when he heard that these two people were alive, Wu Zheng was excited from the bottom of his heart.

This feeling is very strange, Wu Zheng himself can't understand it, he says that he is a relative but feels strange, but when it comes to strangeness, he feels cordial in his heart.

"Zheng'er ......"

Wu Zheng was stunned, because this voice made him feel very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.

Xunsheng saw a woman wearing a blue cloth scarf and dressed in sackcloth looking at her in surprise on the street corner, and she didn't realize that a basket of clothes fell to the ground in front of her.

"It's really Zheng'er, you're back?"

The woman ran to the horse excitedly, but Wu Zheng looked at her in a daze, trying to search all the memories left by the stupid nerd in her mind, but she couldn't remember who the woman in front of her was.

Finally, looking at the excited tears in the woman's eyes, Wu Zheng couldn't help but ask, "Are you an aunt?" ”

The woman nodded, wiped her tears, and said, "Yes! I'm your aunt and he, Zheng'er, you don't recognize me. ”

Wu Zheng closed his eyes and secretly scolded himself for not being able to speak, why do you want to ask you if you are an aunt, don't you just call your aunt? How do you explain it now?

Wu Zheng jumped off the horse, helped his aunt to look at it again and again, and then said excitedly: "Are you really an aunt?" ”

Wu Zheng felt a little ashamed, in order not to let his aunt not let him explain why he didn't even know her in just a few months, he had to pretend to be excited to act.

"It's all because the light here is too dark, and my nephew didn't even recognize my aunt for a while, it's really damn good."

"It's okay, it's okay to come back. By the way, how did you escape? ”

"Auntie, the nephews did not suffer in the mountains, on the contrary, they were very good to the nephews."

"There was an old gentleman who came to our house before and said that you were doing well in the mountains, and my grandmother and I would be suspicious, but I didn't expect you to come back in just two days, it seems that the old gentleman really didn't lie."

"Old gentleman?" Wu Zheng was stunned for a moment and said, "You mean Old Man Xia?" ”

"The old gentleman also said that his surname was Xia, but the old gentleman looked like he was from a rich family, and our small family didn't dare to ask more. But now that you're back, it's good that you're back, don't talk about it, go home with your aunt, and let the grandmother have a good look, our eldest man is back. ”
