Chapter 7: A man attains the Tao and ascends to heaven

"It's my family's honor guard." Jin Chan is also a person with status now, how can he put the seventh rank official in his eyes, and then said: "What are you waiting for my family here?" If you don't have anything important, just retire yourself. My family was so tired that I refused to meet guests. ”

"This lord, the lower official is not an ordinary guest, please make a call on your behalf, and ask to see your nephew, Yue Jinzhong of Yunmengzhi County." The county official of Qipin said with a smiling face.

"What? You, you...... Who ......" When Jin Chan heard that the county official reported that he was Yue Su's nephew, he was so shocked that he almost didn't fall off the horse. I saw this Yue Jinzhong, with a wrinkled face, a white beard, and a young age of six, Yue Su's father is estimated to be less than this age, how can Yue Su still have such a big nephew, and he is still a county magistrate.

"Xia Guan is Lord Yue's nephew, Yue Jinzhong of Yunmengzhi County ......" Yue Jinzhong said again.

"You...... Be...... My Adult's ...... The nephew ......" Jin Chan was sure that he hadn't listened, but his face was still full of panic, and it took a long time to come to his senses and say, "You wait first, and I'll go and pass it on." ”

With that, he turned his horse's head and ran backwards.

Yue Su's guard of honor has now come, Yue Su is riding on a horse, Jiang Jie on the left, and Tie Qiu is at the forefront. Jin Chan had just spoken to the county official, and Yue Su had already arrived, but he didn't know the content of their words.

In a moment, the golden cicada ran back, bowed down and said, "My lord." ”

Yue Su nodded and said, "The one in front is the magistrate of Yunmeng County, didn't you tell him that the official went home to mourn, everything was simple, and he refused to meet guests for the time being?" ”

"His subordinates have already told him, but he claims to be your nephew, so this person has returned to the Messenger." Tie Qiu said truthfully.

"My nephew?" When Yue Su heard this, he couldn't help but wonder.

He is the only son in the family, and he has no brothers or nephews, so there is no way to talk about it. 's father has an elder brother, who is his uncle in terms of seniority, but the uncle died early and has no children, so there will be no nephew of his own. How can an official who claims to be his nephew appear today, waiting here.

Yue Su was far away, but he didn't know Yue Jinzhong's appearance, so he said, "I don't remember that I don't have any nephews?" Where did this come from, so let's go ahead and ask him. ”

With that, he urged the horse to move forward slowly. As he walked, the golden cicada on the side also said: "My lord, my subordinates also wonder that the age of the person in front of me can get up six times." ”

"Huh?" As soon as he heard this, Yue Su became even more curious. It can't be him, Tie Qiu, Yin Zhu and others are also a little confused.

But it was Jiang Jie, still calm, sitting on the horse and saying with a smile: "Actually, it's not strange, the adult is the second assistant of the dynasty, entrusted to the lonely minister, the so-called one person who has attained the Tao chicken dog ascends to heaven, even if he doesn't know people, he is planning to climb some relatives with adults, not to mention that he is a little relative, then he must not become a close friend." ”

"It's still Mr. Jiang's words, and I think it should be like this. Then I have to be even more serious, how did this six-year-old old man get related to this official and this official, and he can also be counted as my nephew. ”

Yue Su talked and laughed, and after a moment's effort, he brought people to Yue Jinzhong, and when he was still five steps away from Yue Jinzhong, he took the reins. Without waiting for Yue Su to ask, Yue Jinzhong on the opposite side knelt directly on the ground and shouted loudly: "Nephew Yue Jinzhong knocked on his uncle ......", and snorted three times in a row.

Yue Su has now reached Yue Jinzhong's body and appearance, and his age is indeed as old as a golden cicada, and when he knelt on the ground in Yue Jinzhong, his body trembled. Yue Su didn't get off the horse, so he said on the horse: "You are also old, get up and talk." ”

"Thank you, uncle." Yue Jinzhong finally got up.

When he got up, Yue Su asked, "Are you Yunmeng County?" ”

"Nephew Yun Mengzhi County Yue Jinzhong."

"You have a nephew, a nephew, but the official is just the year of his establishment, and you are already in the year of the sixtieth year, and I don't know where this nephew came from?" Yue Su was suspicious.

"The great-great-great-great-great-grandfather of the nephew is the cousin of the great-great-great-grandfather of the adult, and in the genealogy of the generation, he is indeed the nephew of the adult, and he must be called uncle." Yue Jinzhong said with a smile on his face.

Great-great-great-grandfather, this is too far, but the other party is like this, Yue Su can't verify it, so it's all Jiang Jie's, can one person ascend to heaven? smiled at the moment: "It turns out that this is the case, and the official knows." Nowadays, the old father died of illness, the official returned to his hometown to mourn, and the father (mother) mourned the system, and now he is anxious to go home, visit the old mother, worship the soul of the loving father, and have no time to talk to you more. Let's talk about it another day, when I'm free. ”

"My nephew has already learned about my uncle's death, and I have been remembering and serving my uncle these days. Today is on the order of my uncle, waiting for my uncle here and welcoming him home. Yue Jin said.

This turned out to be under the banner of the old lady, so Yue Su couldn't drive him away, so he had to say: "Then there is Lao Yunmeng County." ”

"Uncle, you are so much of an outsider, and your title is a nephew." Yue Jinzhong said with a smile.

Yue Su was angry and funny, bowed his head slightly, and said, "Okay, Jinzhong, then you can lead the way." ”

"Yes, uncle." Yue Jinzhong promised, and then asked the messenger to carry the sedan chair, take the sedan chair himself, and lead the way in front.

They are so familiar with the road, I think they really come to the house these days. Under the leadership of Yue Jinzhong, the honor guard soon came to a mansion. This mansion is a high-gate compound, and the spirit flags and white ribbons are hung high outside the courtyard, and even the lanterns are white, so you can know that the family is doing white things.

Outside the gate of the house, there can be no less than 200 people standing in old and young, all of them are wearing filial piety clothes, and when they arrive at the door, Yue Jinzhong came out of the sedan chair, followed by a young man of two or five or six years old who walked in front of the people with filial piety, and the young man said directly to Yue Jinzhong: "Jinzhong, this is my cousin's guard of honor?" ”

"It's really my uncle's guard of honor, and my uncle is behind." Yue Jin stretched out his hand and pointed back. His words were clearly heard by everyone outside the door, and the big guys looked at his fingers together. Soon arrived at Yuesu, the young man with filial piety walked towards Yuesu hurriedly, and when he arrived in front of the horse, he bowed down and saluted, "Brother Yuejing greets my cousin." ”

Yue Su sat on the horse, looking at the mansion and wondering in his heart, this mansion is very big, compared with his second auxiliary mansion in Beijing, it is not much. When did your home change to such a big house? I used to write letters to my family, but I heard that the house was repaired, but it was also repaired so big. There are a lot of people in this house, and my father is in the letter, but he bought a few people, but look at the posture, this is more than a few. There are almost no relatives in the family, and filial piety is particular about this year, what kind of relationship brings what kind of filial piety, and all that is in front of you is heavy filial piety, so it must not be a neighbor.

and then to this young man who called himself a younger brother and called him his cousin, Yue Su was even more confused. He doesn't have a cousin, and when did he come out with a cousin? Yue Su asked curiously, "This official has never heard that he has a cousin, so what do you start with?" ”

"My brother's grandfather and my brother's grandfather were cousins, and they originally lived here, but they later moved to Songjiaji, so they didn't have any contact. The brother's uncle, the brother's father, knew all about it. "Yue Jing is at ease.

"I see." Yue Su nodded, stretched out his hand to the more than 200 people wearing heavy filial piety outside the mansion, and asked: "In the past, I didn't hear that there were so many relatives in the family, and there were not many people in the mansion, why did you come back today and there were so many people wearing heavy filial piety?" ”

"If you go back to my brother, there are more than four relatives in the family here, and the rest are all family members and servants called by the government." Yue Jing said.

"So many servants and servants?" Yue Su was a little surprised, he didn't have so many people in Beijing, how could there be so many people in his hometown. But he didn't ask any more questions, and asked again, "I wonder where my mother is now?" Where is my father's coffin? ”

"My aunt was very happy when she knew that her brother was back, and she planned to go out to greet her in person, but everyone stopped her and told her to wait for her brother in the mourning hall. The uncle's coffin, which has not yet been buried, is still in the mourning hall when the brother returns. Yue Jing said.

"That's good...... Yue Su turned over and dismounted, "Where is the mourning hall now, take me to bow to my mother and worship my father." ”

Under Yue Su, Jin Chan, Yin Zhu, Tong Xuan, Tie Qiu, Jiang Jie and others around him jumped off their horses one after another, and the guards behind them also dismounted together, and the neat momentum made everyone feel frightened.

At this time, Guan Yu walked from behind, stopped in front of Yue Su, bowed and said, "My lord, the three ladies asked me to come over to inquire, but have you arrived at the mansion?" ”

"It's already here, let them come together, follow me into the house to meet my mother-in-law, and pay tribute to my father-in-law." Yue Su said.

"Yes, sir." Guan Yu hurriedly ran to the back to pass the word, and soon, Ruan Aoyue, Mu Tianjiao, and Li Qiongying followed Guan Yu to the front, and first saluted her husband, and then Yue Su asked Yue Jing to lead the way and walked towards the mansion.

Walking to the door of the mansion, Yue Jing shouted loudly: "Master go back to the house!" ”

As soon as he settled, he saw those people wearing heavy filial piety, and immediately knelt down for the most part, and shouted one by one: "Welcome the master back to his house." ”

Yue Su was a person who had been a commander, and tens of thousands of horses had knelt in front of him, so he naturally didn't pay attention to this battle. But there is always one thing in my heart, that is, how can there be so many subordinates in the family.

With Yue Jing and Yue Jinzhong, the three wives and Du Niang, Mei'er, Jin Chan and others all followed. As soon as I entered the door of the house, I saw a high spiritual shed in the main courtyard, and a large number of monks and Taoist priests gathered in the spiritual shed, each reciting their own scriptures. Passing through the mourning booth, the main hall, has now been converted into a mourning hall. Before reaching the door, Yue Su could go to the spiritual seat offered inside, as well as the coffin behind it.

Under the spiritual seat knelt an old man, and beside the old man, there were two attendants. When Yue Su came to the door, he could clearly clear the old man's back, how familiar that back was, wasn't it his mother.

"Mother......
