Boss Wu hired a carriage, and the four of them sat in the bumpy carriage and rushed towards Sanmen County. Wu Lao Er couldn't bear his temperament, and he teased Xiao Wu Ming for a while, so he went to the wheel to talk to the coachman about the calf, and asked about the business of the car and horse dealers in the capital, the route of the merchants, and so on. It's really boring, and I want to squint for a while when I get into the carriage again. It's a pity that his sister-in-law didn't give him this opportunity and asked about him and Xia Keke.

"So you don't know each other?"

"I don't know you!"

"Then why are you wawing at her?"

"Well, I don't have it, sister-in-law."

"Impossible! And her face is red when she looks at you! Tell your sister-in-law quickly, and your sister-in-law will give you a staff officer. Jian Sanniang didn't believe what Wu Lao Er said at all, in modern terms, there are pictures and truths.

Wu Lao Er is also drunk, sister-in-law, are you really good at gossiping about your brother-in-law? Seeing Jian Sanniang looking at him fixedly, she had an expression that you would never spare you if you didn't confess. Wu Lao Er had no choice but to tell him how he misunderstood Xia Keke and wow Ka . Jian Sanniang's face glowed red when she heard this, as if she had satisfied her curiosity.

"So Xia Keke has a certain affection for his uncle, right?" Jian Sanniang's face turned and asked Boss Wu.

Boss Wu probably knew that she would not give up if she did not satisfy his wife's curiosity, so he had to reply: "It should be a little, but it is useless." Xia Keke's father, Xia Shi, is not easy to get along with, and he does not control the marriages of several children in his family. His third son, Ben, was in love with a woman, but because the woman's father was at odds with him, he broke up the two alive. His eldest daughter was married to a brother from the same family as a successor, and the brothers' children were older than his daughter. ”

Wu Lao Er was puzzled and asked, "Why is he?" Use children to marry and make your seat better? ”

"No, I heard that Xia Shi is a person, especially talking about the edge, if he thinks you are pleasing to the eye, even if you are a beggar, you may succeed if you want to marry his daughter. If he thinks that you are not a good person, you will have a lot of money and a rich family, and he will not marry you if he approves that he will leave his daughter at home as an old aunt. ”

"Hmm" Wu Lao Er nodded and said: "I understand, just an old Confucian student, thinking that he is what he is, but in fact he is nothing." I always feel that I can be arrogant and slow princes, in fact, no one has the same knowledge as him, and I have seen a lot of old coffins. "Wu Lao Er looks like I know very well.

Jian Sanniang laughed when she heard Wu Laoer's words, and felt that this little uncle was good, similar to what she thought.

Boss Wu said with dissatisfaction: "Second brother, how can you say filthy words like this, everyone has their own way of acting, what does it matter to you." And the name is still young, don't teach him badly! ”

Wu Lao Er agreed casually, but Jian Sanniang said: "How can my child be like this, don't underestimate my son." He said to Wu Lao Er again: "What Uncle said is reasonable, but don't be discouraged, maybe the old coffin will look at your uncle." Speaking of this, he laughed again, Wu Lao Da and Wu Lao Er glanced at each other, and they both turned their heads helplessly. Jian Sanniang couldn't stay idle, and asked what kind of kung fu Wu Lao Er used to defeat Wei Wuyi, "Why did Wei Wushu take the lead and didn't even dare to intersect with his uncle after he took the lead?" What's going on with the 'Nine Dead Spirits'? ”

Wu Lao Er had to explain: "That's a skill of the younger brother to use internal strength, and I will name it 'Nine Death Strength'." When this kung fu is used, there are nine different forces that will enter the opponent's body along the fists and feet of the two people, attacking the viscera. Wei Wudi's internal strength is not as good as that of my junior brother, and when the nine powers enter his body, he gradually can't suppress my internal force, so he doesn't dare to intersect with my fists and feet. Seeing that Boss Wu was also interested in this topic, Wu Lao Er explained in detail the truth of the Nine Deaths, which provoked Jian Sanniang to shout that Uncle was really a genius in martial arts and so on. Boss Wu also nodded in appreciation. Jian Sanniang asked again if she could teach this kung fu to her son, Wu Lao Er had nothing to do, but Wu Boss said no, Wu Ming wanted to learn the kung fu of the Legalist in the future, and he was afraid of conflicts. Jian Sanniang gave up, after all, her husband is a disciple of the Legalists, and her son will inherit his father's business in the future.

When the sun set, the carriage finally arrived at Sanmen County, and Boss Wu commanded the coachman to park the carriage at the door of his house. Wake up Xiao Wu Ming, who was already asleep, and Wu Lao Er jumped out of the carriage first.

Wu Lao Er looked at this familiar and unfamiliar home and was silent, not knowing how to communicate with his parents. Over there, Boss Wu and the coachman were moving down to buy things for the family, and Jian Sanniang was knocking on the door with the children. Wu Lao Er didn't know what he should do for a while, and when he turned around, he saw that Wu Lao Er was looking at him. Wu Lao Er smiled at the eldest brother with relief, took a deep breath, and stepped forward and shouted: "Father, mother, open the door quickly, your son, daughter-in-law and grandson are back!" Boss Wu looked at his younger brother's back, with a heartfelt smile on his ice-like face, and if Xiao Wu Ming saw it, he would be frightened.

"It's coming, why are you back today?"

It was Daddy Wu's voice, and Er Wu felt very strange, but it didn't matter, after all, they gave him the power and opportunity to live in this world.

"Squeak", the wooden door slowly opened, Wu Ming first called "grandpa", and then Jian Sanniang also called "father-in-law".

Father Wu said "Okay" and then said to Wu Ming: "Do you want grandpa?" ”

Xiao Wu Ming replied calmly: "I think about it, and I miss grandma." Grandpa, the second uncle is also here. ”

"Come into the house, come into the house, what second uncle?" After Daddy Wu finished speaking, he remembered something, and raised his head to look at Wu Lao Er for a while.

Wu Lao Er bared his teeth and smiled: "What's the matter, Dad, I don't know your second son?" ”

At this time, Boss Wu gave the coachman money to send the coachman back, and stepped forward and said to Father Wu: "Dad, my brother is fortunate to come out of the palace, and he specially came back to see you and his mother." Then he said to Wu Lao Er: "Come, bring things in with me." ”

Wu Lao Er agreed and turned around and walked back with Wu Lao Er and the two of them took their things, Wu Lao Dad only reacted a little at this time, and hurriedly walked towards the house with a few people, looking at Wu Lao Er as he walked, and he had to pick up the things in his hand.

Wu Lao Er dodged for a while and didn't give it to him, "I'll just take it, Dad, it's not heavy, are you and my mother okay?" ”

Father Wu said in a low voice: "Okay, okay, your mother and I are fine, how can you and the second child get out of the palace?" After asking, he shouted loudly into the room: ", you see who's back!" ”

Wu Lao Er said: "The Holy Lord asked me to accompany King Zhao to Daye City, so I asked for leave to come back and have a look." ”

At this time, Mrs. Wu's voice came from inside the house, "My daughter-in-law and good grandson are back, I'm about to come out!" ”

Wu Lao Er felt that Wu Lao Niang's voice was not as good as when he was a child, just like Wu Lao Dad was also very different from the shadow of the ape man in his heart, looking at Wu Lao Niang's slightly stiff back, thinking that after all, more than ten years have passed, and they are all old, and he felt infinite emotion in his heart for a while.

When Mrs. Wu came out, the first thing she saw was not her daughter-in-law, nor her good grandson, but a figure who was taller than her son. Mrs. Wu watched quietly, and Mr. Wu did not speak with a kind smile on his face.

"Is that you?" Mrs. Wu's voice trembled, and she looked at Mr. Wu in disbelief.

Wu Lao Er said loudly: "Mother, it's me, your second son, the little monster is back." "When Wu Lao Er was young, he didn't just know how to go crazy like other children, and he sat quietly by himself all day long, thinking about his thoughts, so Wu Lao Niang always called him a little monster at that time. Mrs. Wu also told him that he didn't cry when he was born, and he didn't cry no matter how he fought, and they all suspected that the monster had changed.

Wu Lao Niang stepped forward and grabbed Wu Lao Er's hand trembling, and asked in a loud voice: "Is it really my little monster?" Is it really my little monster? Why did you come back to see your mother, my mother wants to kill you! Then he began to cry loudly.

No matter how unemotional Wu Lao Er is for this family and the parents who gave birth to him, seeing this scene and listening to this cry, his heart softened. threw the things on the ground, held Wu Lao Niang's arms with both hands and said emotionally: "Mother, it is difficult for the child to come out of the palace, I will come back to see you from time to time in the future, don't cry, hurt your body." ”

Mr. and Mrs. Wu were also persuaded on the side, and Mr. Wu's father and little Wu Ming also cried.

Jian Sanniang wiped her tears and said, "Mother-in-law, now that my uncle is out of the palace, this is a happy event, how can I cry." Now that your uncle has a chance, you should be happy, Ming'er quickly persuade grandma. ”

Xiao Wu Ming pulled his grandmother's clothes and cried: "Grandma, don't cry, don't hurt your body." ”

Under the persuasion of everyone, Mrs. Wu finally stopped crying, and dragged Wu Lao Er's hand with one hand and led her good grandson into the house with the other.

Wu Lao Er looked at the furnishings in the house, and there was no change from when he left home at the age of four, only two new chairs and a table were added, and the rest were all old, which shows the hardships of the old Wu family's life. Wu Lao Er looked back at Wu Lao Er dissatisfied, that means you have a family, a job and a job, how can you still let your parents live such a shabby life.

Boss Wu understood Wu Er's dissatisfaction and explained: "I don't have much money on weekdays, and he is reluctant to spend the money he gives to his father and mother, saying that he is keeping it for you to marry his daughter-in-law." ”

Wu Lao Er nodded sourly, he didn't expect that his parents, who sent him to the palace as a eunuch when he was a child, were willing to live such a poor life for themselves. Although I didn't think they were real fathers and mothers before, but I pity the hearts of parents all over the world, Wu Lao Er turned back to his father and said: "Don't save money in the future, now your son is also a regular official of the four grades, and there will be more money in the future than the eldest brother, and you don't have to worry about my daughter-in-law." ”

Mrs. Wu just dragged Wu Er's hand and watched him cry, without saying a word. Father Wu choked up and said, "It's okay, it's not bitter, it's not bitter, it's okay." ”

Wu Lao Er pulled Wu Lao Niang to sit down, and asked Wu Lao Dad to sit down as well, "My son is now a real official, and I don't need your second elder to save money to live, eat more good food in the future, my father and mother are much older." ”

Wu Lao Niang stopped her tears and said: "Father and mother are not bitter, but they have suffered you, and I don't know how many sins I suffered in the palace." Back then, my father and mother had no way to send you to the palace, don't blame my father. ”

Wu Lao Er smiled and said: "How can it be, I know that there is no way at home, otherwise my father and mother will not watch their son suffer." I didn't suffer much in the palace, your son is well-behaved and sensible, and he likes it. ”

Boss Wu and Jian Sanniang also comforted their father and mother on the side, saying that Wu Lao Er was favored in the palace, from the emperor to the queen, the crown prince and the prince, which made Wu Lao Dad Wu feel a little guilty.

After that, Jian Sanniang went to cook, and Wu Lao Niang was left in the house to accompany her son. Wu Lao Er also began to tell his father and mother about his affairs in the palace, and most Wu Lao Er didn't know. When he heard how Wu Lao Er was naughty and mischievous to provoke his husband, the whole family laughed, and Wu Boss also said that Wu Lao Er had a mouth that could breathe fire, and his brain was often smoking, so Xiao Wu Ming naively asked his uncle to breathe fire to show him, which made the whole house laugh.

When the meal was about to be done, a little girl came in, Wu Lao Er knew that it must be his little sister, Wu Lao Er took out the gift he bought for his sister, and the little girl who provoked him said that the second brother was good. When the meal was served, the family ate happily, and Father Wu also drank wine with his two sons until midnight.

The Wu family's house is not big, but it also has two rooms, and it doesn't matter if a few people are assigned to it or not, they will deal with it for a night. Wu Lao Er is lying on the bed, with Xiao Wu Ming on the right, Wu Boss on the left, and Wu Daddy on the left. Although he couldn't turn over, Wu Lao Er was surprisingly down-to-earth in his heart, thinking that this was what it felt like to be at home. When sleepiness came, he closed his eyes and slowly let out a small snoring sound.

The starlight in the sky shines through the window on a large bed, reflecting the warmth of the room.
