Chapter 290: Contentment
Cui Qi asked to explore the tomb of Qin Taizu with Zi You, which Zi You did not need to refuse, after all, Cui Qi himself was a professional tomb robber before he came to Taoyuan Village, and if he had his help, or this trip to hell, he would have taken many detours.
His righteous rhetoric was not necessary, and Ziyou readily agreed. "Yes."
After the conversation, the two returned to the villagers, and Tracy explained to the others that he was going to Selangor to buy some things, and he would return soon, and that although Taoyuan Village was isolated from the rest of the world, the village of 300 people, everyone worked together, and still could not produce all the things that everyone needed, so the village chief would go out of the village to Selangor City, sell their inexhaustible things, and the silver taels they earned would go to buy things they couldn't get, such as porcelain, such as salt, and some food crops that they didn't grow.
In addition, thanks to Shen Yang's care, they are also very concerned about the current situation of the Shen family, so a few months ago, when Shen Yang died of illness, this news quickly penetrated into Taoyuan Village.
The last time Cui Qi left the village was more than a month ago, and if you do the math, it's almost time.
Orion brought a few furs and handed them to Cui Qi, and Wang also gave Cui Qi a few pieces of newly woven fabric, there were not many things, and they also knew that the road out of the valley was not easy to walk, and they couldn't bring too many things, they should have brought one or two strong men out of the valley with them, but this time with Ziyou, but Cui Qi was alone.
"Village chief, village chief, I want sugar gourd, sugar gourd." Xiao Qinghe said excitedly.
"Wait for my brother to come back and bring you something more delicious." Ziyou touched Xiao Qinghe's head.
"Really? What's that, it's better than a sugar gourd? Qinghe looked at Ziyou curiously, in her eyes, the sugar gourd was the best thing in the world, sweet and sour, it felt super good, I really couldn't think of anything better than the sugar gourd.
"You'll know when I get back." Ziyou said with a smile.
"Then the big brother come back quickly (something more delicious than a sugar gourd, hurry up and give it to me)" After listening to Ziyou's assurance, Qinghe didn't have a grudge against Ziyou, and his arm swayed constantly. "If it's really better than sugar gourd, then Qinghe also makes the big brother hug Qinghe like a sister."
"Ahem." Rao is Ziyou's face is as thick as a wall, and he can't help but blush, it's really childlike, if others know what he did to Qinghe in his sleep, then he will really be regarded as a beast, although he is indeed a beast, but he still doesn't want to uncover the skin.
Seeing everyone laughing, Ziyou breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that the villagers didn't think too much, thinking that Ziyou and Shen Mengxi were just bumped into by Qinghe when they were doing something embarrassing.
"What nonsense." Wang wrapped Qinghe's body in his arms and scolded with a smile.
There must always be a separation, after explaining the trivial matters of the transaction in the village, Ziyou, Cui Qi, and Shen Mengxi should also leave, all the villagers are here, more than 300 people, and they came to see them off Ziyou.
"Don't send it away, let's go back." Shen Mengxi saw that the villagers did not stop, they were all close to the village, and they still did not return, so he hurriedly said.
At this time, I don't know who started it, all the villagers, including Cui Qi, knelt down one after another, and the direction of kneeling was Shen Mengxi, who was persuading everyone in front of everyone.
"What are you guys doing?" Shen Mengxi had obviously never seen such a battle, and he was quite startled.
"We were all displaced to Selangor because of the war, at that time we had no clothes and no food, it was because of the great compassion of Lord Shen Yang that we had the life of a fairy today, Lord Shen Yang is like our reborn parents, but in the past three years, we have never seen Lord Shen Yang again, until a few months ago we heard the bad news that Lord Shen Yang died of illness, the sky is unfair, how can we let people like Bodhisattvas go so early, and we did not see Lord Shen Yang at the last time, this is the biggest regret of all the villagers of Taoyuan Village!"
"Miss Shen is Lord Shen Yang's biological daughter, Lord Shen Yang is not here, I hope Miss can accept our bow on behalf of Lord Shen Yang!"
A representative of the villagers said loudly to Shen Mengxi, who was already stupid.
Hearing Shen Yang's name and hearing Shen Yang's praised deeds, Shen Mengxi couldn't help but hide his face and cry bitterly. "This is what my daddy did, you guys get up."
Shen Mengxi wanted to refuse, but at this time, Ziyou stopped her. "Accept it, if not, how can their knots be relieved.
"One kowtow, thanks to Lord Shen Yang's rebirth."
"Two kowtows, the sky is unfair, and it is difficult for good people to last."
"Three kowtows, may Shen Yang be in heaven and enjoy the blessings of heaven."
Under the kneeling of everyone, under the bitter crying of everyone, Ziyou and the three left Taoyuan Village, Ziyou stumbled Shen Mengxi's head, so that she always looked back, she was reluctant to give up on Taoyuan Village, and she was not at ease with the behavior of the villagers, the road ahead still needs to be walked by herself, for the Shen family, for the future life, there is no way back.
Shen Mengxi cried, her little head involuntarily leaned on Ziyou's shoulder, unconsciously, after going through so many things, they were also much closer to each other, at least yesterday, the self-righteous Shen Mengxi felt that they had done what they could only do as a husband and wife.
This dependence is even more pronounced.
Taoyuan Village, Taoyuan Valley, surrounded by the valley bottom between the mountains, because the surrounding terrain is steep, no one has stepped on the traces, the road in and out of Taoyuan Valley, is also an unusual road, not long after leaving Taoyuan Village, the fields opened up have disappeared, surrounded by dense forests and strange stones, the trees of the sky cover the clouds and the sun, and the trickle is clear and low.
The cold wind of winter also blew into the Taoyuan Valley, and the birds and beasts were almost extinct, and it was quiet.
"In the old days, there were many jackals here, and they needed to be escorted by some hunters with bows to get to and from here safely." This way, it is not easy to walk, Shen Mengxi is not strong enough, there are many stops, Cui Qi is also a talkative person, whenever he stops, he begins to talk about the past of Taoyuan Village.
When I first arrived, it was a place where no one had ever been, fighting with wild beasts for territory, killing several people, but it was worth it, and then cutting down trees and building houses, cultivating wasteland, it was extremely difficult, but in the end it was such a carefree and satisfying life as it is now.
"In the past, I robbed tombs for a living, barely survived, but I always had trouble sleeping, and every day I could dream that the dead in the coffin turned into a ghost and tortured me, but now I will never have that kind of distress again, and I can live like this for a lifetime, I am really content."
