Chapter 11: The Search for Relatives (1)

On the way back to the county school, Qian Jin was a little resentful. These big officials are not in a good way, and the left one discusses and the right one researches. It is not known whether the cannons were made of copper or iron, and if they were iron cannons, they would rust when they were soaked in seawater. If it is swept away by the tide again, it will be difficult to find it at that time.

He has been thinking about salvage artillery for the past few days. Regardless of whether the government had ideas or not, he decided to get a few doors and put them in his hands. After the naval battle, Qian Jin faintly felt that the world was not peaceful.

Just do it, he immediately went to find Luo San and Sun Bao. Sun Bao's family is a boatman, and it is still possible to let him find a few fishing boats. Luo San went to contact the mule cart. Hu Jizhong went to the money bank with him and took fifty taels of silver for turnover. He went back to the village to find helpers from a dozen fishermen and collected some dry wood.

Qian Jin is well-known in the village, but he is a famous figure and a prodigy, and his speech is more effective.

By the time he had arranged all this, it was already noon. The road was so busy that he didn't even return home, and his stomach was hungry. It was lunchtime, so he hurried home again.

Entering the courtyard, Wen was going out to wash a pot of vegetables. Seeing her son come back, she was a little surprised and asked, "Jin'er, is the county school on vacation?" ”

"Mother, there are some things that need to be done back to the village. Have you had anything to eat? I'm starving. ”

"I'm about to cook, you foodie, you can't leave a meal behind." Wen scolded with a smile.

"People are iron and rice are steel, and they don't eat hungry for a meal."

Wen was about to fight, but his eyes suddenly looked at the door.

Qian Jin also turned his head, only to see an official in a red robe and a black veil holding on to the door frame of the gate and panting for breath. Qian Jin was thinking about the familiarity of the official, when the man raised his head and pointed at himself and scolded, "You monkey cub...... Let the official chase so hard. ”

Qian Jin took a look, isn't this Ventisi? So he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, and said, "Ventis, this ...... Student doesn't know ...... you're visiting" Before he finished speaking, he heard a clatter behind him, and when he looked back, it turned out that his mother had dropped the vegetable pot on the ground.

Qian Jinxin said that her mother is usually calm, why is she so weird today? But seeing his mother's teary eyes slowly walking towards Wen Tisi, he called softly: "Brother......"

Wen Xun heard this call and looked at Wen carefully.

He was twenty and one when he was separated from his sister, and his sister was less than twenty-eight years old, and her body had just grown up. Now that more than ten years have passed, Wen is already the mother of two children, and his figure and appearance have naturally changed a little, and he has not recognized it for a while. After recognizing Wen's facial features, Wen Xun finally determined that this was his sister, and immediately greeted him and cried loudly: "Xiu'er, you make me a brother...... It's hard to find......"

The two hugged and cried.

Next to him, Qian Jin was stunned on the spot for a while. He didn't expect that when he went to the county government today, he would bring out a period of cause and effect from more than ten years ago. Since he can remember, Wen has often told him about his grandmother's murder, and told him the surnames and origins of his grandfather and uncle one by one, and told him to remember to search for him when he became an adult. Clinker is wrong today, and my mother and uncle are reunited in Guanhai City.

After the two of them calmed down a little, Qian Jin persuaded: "Wentisi, mother, it's sunny outside, it's better to sit down at home and talk." ”

The two of them did as they said.

After entering the hall, Wen found a stool for his brother to sit down and rest, and pulled Qian Jin to him and said, "Jin'er, this is your uncle." Salute quickly. ”

"Wait a minute." Wen Xun straightened his clothes and hat sideways, and when he turned around, the old man with a pulled face scolded: "My good nephew, you just tossed me all morning today." ”

It turned out that after Wen Xun heard Li Demao say so much in the county office, he thought carefully that Qian Jin's eyebrows and eyes were indeed similar to his sister. He has been looking for more than ten years, and he doesn't care about spending more effort, so he decided to go over to investigate in person, and he didn't need Li Demao to send someone to follow.

As a result, Qian Jin went to more places in the morning, a private school for a while, a Qian Zhuang for a while, and a dozen families after arriving in the village. Qian Jin has had good foot strength since he was a child, and Wen Xun is an authentic scholar, and he followed him all the way, and his tired legs were about to break.

Qian Jin was also sincerely happy to see that his mother had finally found her relatives. In the past ten years, he has not seen his mother secretly wipe her tears alone. He straightened his clothes, knelt down in front of Wen Xun and kowtowed solemnly, and said, "Nephew to see uncle." Uncle...... Mother has missed you so much all these years. ”

Wen Xun had already seen Qian Jin once in the morning, and he didn't say anything, but he was still very satisfied with this nephew in his heart. He picked up Qian Jin and took a closer look, and found that this nephew was indeed a little similar to himself, and they all said that the nephew was like an uncle, which seemed to be well-founded.

The family talked and laughed about the past ten years, and Wen asked many about the situation of the old father. While he was talking, Wen Xun suddenly asked, "Why don't you see your mother at home?" ”

Wen didn't answer, and the tears couldn't help but start flowing down again.

Qian Jin couldn't bear to be sad when his mother mentioned the old things, so he said, "Uncle...... My grandmother was killed by bandits fifteen years ago. At that time, my father happened to pass by with salt, and he was lucky enough to save my mother's life. ”

Wen Xun's brother and sister reunion today, his heart was originally very happy, but he knew that in the blink of an eye, he heard the bad news of his mother, and suddenly sat down on the chair, and shouted: "Hate the eunuch...... Destroy my family......" I didn't catch it in one breath, and I fainted.

Wen was so frightened that he hurriedly pinched others. Qian Jin took a fan and fanned the wind next to him. Half a moment later, Wen Xun finally woke up.

Qian Jin couldn't bear it, so he persuaded: "Uncle, today is a happy day. I think it must be my grandmother's spirit in heaven that reunites your brother and sister. Don't mourn anymore. ”

Wen wiped a handful of tears, remembering that it was almost noon that his brother had not eaten or drunk water, so he asked Qian to go into the city to pick up Lao Qian and Bao'er back, and he went to Zhang Luo to eat.

When he was about to go out, Wen Xun stopped Qian Jin and said, "Jin'er, you take my name card to the county government to talk to Xu Buzheng, and say, 'The little brother has got what he wants', and he understands." ”

Qian Import agreed, and went to the kitchen to grab the leftovers and eat them. By the end of the morning, he was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back.

When he arrived at the county office, Qian Jin handed over the name of Wen Xun. When Xu Baolu heard the news that Wen Xun had finally achieved his wish, he was also sincerely relieved for his old friend, and encouraged Qian Jin again.

When Qian entered the guardhouse, Wang Xing was still worried about yesterday's school incident, but a soldier knocked over the oil lamp when he helped him clean up the table. Wang Xing suddenly became nameless, and greeted the soldier with a leather whip. Hearing that Lao Qian was going to take leave, Wang Xing raised his whip and whipped it at Qian De without saying a word.

Qian De was not afraid of him, he held the leather whip in one hand, held up Wen Xun's name card in the other, and asked: "Tisi has something to ask for, how are you doing?" With that, he slammed the door and left.

On the way out of the guard, Qian Jin quipped: "Old Qian, you are really majestic today." ”

"It wasn't easy for your mother to find her relatives. This is not the first time that Wang Xing has offended him anyway, so it's a big deal that I will take a few of you to move to the mainland. ”

"Don't be afraid of him just yet. Old money, and let him be proud for a few more years, and I will help you repair him in the future. ”

The two went to the post house to pick up Bao'er, and purchased some wine and food in the city, and rushed to the village.
