Taiping Village, the small courtyard of the Chu family.

"Mother, I have heard, the army has returned." Chu Qing said breathlessly.

"Have you ever seen Ze'er?"

Chu Mu grabbed Chu Qing's hand tightly and asked, because she was in a hurry, her voice was very loud. In the year that Chu Ze left home, there was not a day when Chu's mother stopped worrying about Chu Ze's safety.

Chu Qingdao: "I haven't seen it, there are too many people in Chang'an City." ”

Hearing that she didn't see Chu Ze, Chu Mu was a little disappointed, let go of the hand that grabbed Chu Qing, and sat aside.

"Mother, is the second brother coming back soon?" Ya Mei'er looked at Chu Mu expectantly and said.

"Yes, your second brother is coming back soon" Mother Chu said firmly, she firmly believed that her child would be fine and would definitely come back safely.

The banquet in the palace was very exquisite, and the dancing during the banquet was also very graceful, but Chu Ze, who was in the corner, was terrified when he ate this meal.

I don't know what's going on, he always feels that there is a gaze looking at him from time to time, and after several searches, he finally found that it was His Majesty Li Er who was looking at him, and Chu Ze felt furious in his heart.

The banquet in the palace lasted until the sun was about to set, "It's finally over, having a meal has been watched by others, and it is His Majesty Li Er, Chu Ze feels that the experience is extremely poor." ”

Following everyone towards the outside of the palace, Chu Ze found an opportunity to walk to Li Jing's side, and whispered, "Dashuai, can you take a leave, I want to go home first." ”

The soldiers who go out according to the regulations can only go home after the reward, Chu Ze has been out for a year, and he doesn't know how his family is now, and he is a little worried and wants to go back to see.

Li Jing thought for a while and said, "It's accurate, go back." The war is over, and there is no need to call a certain commander in the future. ”

"Thank you, Boss." Chu Ze really didn't know what to call if he didn't call him handsome, so he thought for a while and said.

Li Jing said angrily: "You kid! said that the war is over, no need to call it that anymore, you can call it an uncle in the future! ”

"Uh, Uncle Lee?"

Li Jing said angrily: "Why don't you kid want to? ”

Chu Ze smiled and said, "No, the kid is just a little excited, hehe" Okay, Uncle Li will be Uncle Li, anyway, he won't suffer."

"Let's go home," Li Jing left first.

Goodbye Li Jing, on the street, after buying something. Chu Ze rode a horse, put the size package on the horse's back, and ticked towards Taiping Village.

The twilight is green, the lanterns have been lit on both sides of the bluestone paved streets, the wind is blowing, and the flags hanging outside the wine shop and teahouse are gently swaying with the wind.

At this time, there are a lot fewer pedestrians on the street. Occasionally, urchins frolicked in the streets, but they were also dragged back to their homes by the coarse linen women.

At this time, Zhuyue seemed to feel Chu Ze's eagerness, and ran with all her strength spread her legs, like a gust of wind.

Feeling timid, he hasn't come back for a year, looking at the small courtyard surrounded by the fence in front of him, Chu Ze was a little excited in his heart.

"Who?" Chu Ze saw a young woman in the courtyard, busy carrying firewood into the house.

Have you forgotten where your home is after a year on the expedition? Chu Ze looked around seriously again, yes, it's his own home, but who is the woman in the courtyard?

The sound outside the courtyard disturbed the people in the courtyard, and the woman put down the firewood, walked over to Chu Ze, and said, "You are Chu Ze, right?" ”

Chu Ze was even more confused, "Well, I'm Chu Ze, you are..."

The woman smiled and shouted loudly into the house, "Da Lang, Uncle is back!" ”

Chu Ze understood, this is his sister-in-law, the unreliable eldest brother, and finally his dream has come true, but this speed is a bit fast.

Chu Qing was chopping wood, and when he heard the shouting, he hurriedly ran over, his eyes were full of joy, he wiped his hands on his clothes excitedly, and strode over.

took the reins of the horse in Chu Ze's hand, and shouted excitedly, "Second brother, you're back!" ”

"Well, I'm back!" Chu Ze nodded heavily.

Chu Qing, who hasn't seen him for a year, is much calmer, perhaps because he has become a family.

Thinking of his brother who owed gambling debts when he first came to Datang, and looking at the present, Chu Ze couldn't help but sigh in his heart, feeling like a world away.

Mother Chu walked out of the house and saw Chu Ze at the gate of the courtyard, her face was incredulous, and she said in a trembling voice, "Ze'er, really...... Is it really Ze'er? ”

Chu Ze walked forward quickly and knelt at the feet of Chu's mother, "Mother, it's me, I'm back!" ”

Chu Ze was already in tears, holding Chu Huan with open hands, although she hadn't seen her for a year, but this year, she stopped worrying about Chu Ze all the time, for fear that Chu Ze would have an accident and never come back.

Chu Ze, who was held by Chu's mother, didn't dare to let go, for fear that it would be a dream.

Everyone in the courtyard looked at the scene in front of them, their faces were full of excitement, and the sister-in-law smiled and said, "Mother, you think about it day and night, and finally look forward to the uncle back!" ”

Only then did Chu Mu let go of her hand, wiped her tears, and said to Chu Ze, "This is your sister-in-law, see it soon!" ”

Chu Ze had already guessed in his heart, stood up, and saluted respectfully, "I've seen my sister-in-law" The sister-in-law smiled, owed a bow, and took the initiative to go up and pick up the package from the ground, and said with a smile, "This is Erlang's salute, right?" I'll put it for you! ”

"Thank you, sister-in-law!"

Chu Mu took Chu Ze's hand and asked with concern, "Ze'er, you have worked hard all the way, and you haven't eaten yet, have you?" ”

Chu Ze smiled and said, "Mother, Ze'er has eaten and eaten in the palace!" ”

Hearing that Chu Ze was eating in the palace, Chu's mother said vigorously, "The ancestors bless, Ze'er is blessed, the ancestors are blessed, Ze'er is blessed." ”

Chu Mu held Chu Ze's hand tightly, looked left and right, and tears came out again. Choked up and said, "Ze'er suffered, blackened, and thin. ”

Chu Ze said with relief, "Mother, the child didn't suffer, everything is fine, it's not thin, it's strong, hehe"

Chu Ze's words made Chu's mother burst into tears and laughed, and said to the sister-in-law on the side, "Matchmaker, you go get something to eat, recruit people to go home and have a reunion dinner, this is a rule passed down from the ancestors." ”

The sister-in-law agreed, turned around and went out, and the kitchen soon turned on the lights.

Mother Chu pulled Chu Ze back to the house and said softly, "Give your father and them incense." ”

Chu Ze nodded, saw the spirit card that was already placed in the middle of the hall, and immediately bowed respectfully a few times.

"Second brother, you're back! I miss you so much! The little girl came back from outside, saw Chu Ze, ran over in surprise, and shouted loudly.

I haven't seen the little girl grow a lot taller for a year, Chu Ze hugged the little girl, and said with a smile, "Sister, when the second brother was not at home, did you listen to your mother?" Look at the dirt on your face, where did you go crazy again? ”

The little girl wiped the dust on her face and whispered, "The girl is very obedient." ”

"Just be obedient, look at the delicious food that my brother brought you." Holding the girl, Chu Ze took out the small snacks he bought in Chang'an City and handed them to the little girl.

The little girl giggled happily and shouted, "Brother is so good." ”

Chu Mu watched beside her and kept wiping her tears with her hands, Chu Ze was so happy when she came back. Seeing that his children have changed, he has come out of nowhere. Mother Chu couldn't help but hold back tears of joy.

The family gathered around the table to eat, the meals were very simple, but Chu Ze ate very at ease, although Chu Ze said that he couldn't eat anymore, Chu's mother still kept putting vegetables into Chu Ze's bowl, mothers in the world are like this, they always want to give the best to their children!
