Chapter 20: I made my wish and returned to Qilin Village

It is said that Zhou Tong saw the foggy green mountains and green waters along the way, touched the scene, and casually chanted a song "Jiangchengzi Feelings", chanting and sighing.

Coming to the gate of the Neihuang County Yamen, Zhou Tong got off the sedan chair, sent the sedan chair drivers back to Xiangzhou to resume their lives, and entered the county government tremblingly.

Li Chun glanced at Zhou Tong and asked in surprise: "Old hero, I haven't seen you for a long time, why are you so haggard?" , the face is sallow, the eyes are deep, is it sick? ”

"Alas, people are old and useless, and they are tired and tired from running around. In the past, he fell ill in Xiangzhou City, and Duomengxi said that his friend Wang Yushan took care of him. The old man still has a lot of unfulfilled wishes, so he wants to go back to Qilin Village to get together with a few apprentices, and explain some things by the way. Brother Li, I'm sorry, I've been looking for Zipeng these days, but there is no news at all. However, I have an unexpected gain, Wang Zipeng was not born to my old man and his wife, but picked up by the old couple by the river. He is likely to be Yue Fei's twin brother Yue Teng. I have to tell Yue Anren about this, and by the way, ask about the specific situation back then. This old bone of mine will soon die, and the wish that should be fulfilled will always be fulfilled. I will go to Qilin Village tomorrow, and I will have Brother Lao Xian accompany me on a trip. Zhou Tong sighed and said.

"It's okay to go with you. Old hero, don't be discouraged, your illness is caused by overwork, and it is not a big problem, as long as you rest for a few more days and recuperate kindly, you will definitely get better. Li Chun comforted.

Early the next morning, Li Chun got up, finished freshening up, came to Zhou Tong's bed, and asked with concern: "Old hero, did you sleep well last night?" Are you feeling better? ”

"Alas—it's still the same, and it's not good." Zhou Tong sat up, got out of bed, and came to the hall.

Li Chun instructed his subordinates to fetch a basin of warm water and serve it himself.

"Brother Li, you are the lord of a county, why do you have to do this? The old man is okay, no need to wait. Zhou Tong said, wash it himself.

"Old hero, are we going to Qilin Village on horseback or in a sedan chair?" Li Chun asked.

"Let's ride a horse! I don't want to be waited. Zhou Tong said.

"Alright! We rode on horseback, taking in the scenery along the way. Li Chun said and told the groom to go to the stable and lead the horse over.

The groom took the order and went away, and in a moment he led the horse over to make an errand.

"Old hero, I'll help you get on the horse." Li Chun said and walked over to help Zhou Tong get on the horse. z

"I'm tired." Zhou Tong shook his spirits, and with the help of Li County's order, he jumped on the horse, grabbed the reins in his hand, and walked away.

Li Chun rode on his horse and marched hand in hand with Zhou Tong.

Along the way, the two of them pointed and talked and laughed.

Zhou Tong looked much better today, and his face was a little ruddy.

"Old hero, I see that you are in good spirits today, full of spirit, and your majesty has not diminished." Li Chun quipped.

"Alas—old, old, and incapable of doing things." Zhou Tong sighed and said.

When he came to Liquan Mountain, Zhou Tong stopped, and Li Chun saw this and listened to it.

Zhou Tong pointed to the highland of Liquan Mountain and said to Li Chun: "Brother Li, after I die, I will be buried in the highest part of that highland, which belongs to the foreign family of the king of Qilin Village, I hope you will open your mouth for me." There I could see how my students left Qilin Village and how they returned to Qilin Village in style. This is my only wish, and I hope you can do it for me. ”

"Old hero, don't worry! I will definitely do it. But that's another story. For now, you should take care of yourself first. Let's go! Go to Kirin Village. Li Chun said, saying let's ride forward.

Zhou Tong reluctantly looked at the beautiful scenery of Liquan Mountain, and couldn't help shedding sad tears.

Li Chun turned his head and saw the tears on Zhou Tong's face, and understood Zhou Tong's feelings at this moment, he didn't say anything, just silently waited for Zhou Tong to leave this sad place.

"Brother, I'm making you laugh. Zhou Tong couldn't help but think of his friend Elder Zhiming, who used to practice here, and I don't know where he is now? How are you doing? So sad. Zhou Tong smiled indifferently and said.

"Old Hero Zhou, let's go! It's okay if you have this heart. I think that no matter where Elder Zhiming is, he will definitely feel this concern of yours in his heart. ”

When Zhou Tong heard this, he felt a little comforted in his heart, and he rode his horse to continue walking, and Li Chun accompanied Zhou Dong around.

When they came to Qilin Village, Zhou Tong and Li Chun got off their horses and walked to Wang Yuanwai's house.

As soon as the four disciples of Yue Fei, Zhang Xian, Tang Huai, and Wang Gui saw that the master was back, they surrounded them like a bee and asked questions.

Zhou Tong saw these four energetic faces, and a relieved smile appeared on his face.

"Godfather, I haven't seen you for a long time, how did you become so old? Is it uncomfortable for your bones? Yue Fei asked with concern.

"Let's go in and talk! Kid, godfather has a lot to say to you. Zhou Tong stroked Yue Fei's face and said kindly.

"Virtuous son-in-law, is Anren in good health?" Li Chun asked.

When Yue Fei saw his father-in-law greeting his mother, he was ashamed.

"Father-in-law is above, please forgive Yue Fei for not being in trouble. Seeing the master's expression in a trance just now, he was worried, so he only waited for him, and forgot to come to give a salute, and asked for a lot of Haihan. My mother is in good health, and my father-in-law is concerned. Yue Fei came to Li Chun, knelt down on one knee, and asked for forgiveness.

A group of people surrounded Zhou Tong and Li Chun to the gate, and Wang Yuanwai personally walked out of the gate to greet him.

"Zhang Xian, Tang Huai, you go back and invite your father, Yue Fei, you also call your mother, let's get together today." Wang Yuanwai said happily.

Hearing that Zhou Tong was back, Zhang Da, Tang Wenzhong, and Yue An were happy one by one, and Zhang Da and Tang Wenzhong hurried over, but they didn't enter the door yet, and they couldn't stop laughing. Zhang Xian and Tang Huai followed, with bright smiles on their faces. Yue Anren, accompanied by Yue Fei, also came to the hall to greet Zhou Tong, Li Chun, and the three members one by one.

"Thanks to your love, I, a woman, shouldn't be on an equal footing with everyone, but Fei'er insisted on me coming, and I had to do it." Yue Anren said.

"Mother-in-law, now Fei'er is nearly sixteen years old, and the little daughter is also approaching the screen, and the two of them have reached the age of talking about marriage. Today, in front of Mr. Zhou and the three members, it is better to settle the day, and I have a matter on my mind. Li Chun said.

"Good! Today, I took advantage of this opportunity to make a decision. Let's all celebrate. Wang Yuanwai said happily.

"Yue'an people, Li Xian Ling deigned to come, and personally proposed that at this time, it was a good thing, so you agreed! Later, I have one more good news for you. Zhou Tong said.

"Since Li Xianling is so watchful, I can't be happy, so there is a sense of shirk. It's just that our orphans and widows live in poverty and don't have the money to prepare for the dowry, so ......" Yue Anren said this, and it was difficult to speak.

"Mother-in-law, don't be ashamed to say it, my Li Chun takes a fancy to Yue Fei, not your family, and the dowry will be waived, as long as you choose a good son to get married." Li Chun said.

"Yes! Sister-in-law, Li Xianling is not an ordinary snob, he doesn't recognize money or people. However, the minimum number of courtesies is still indispensable, just squeak what you need, Zhang Da and I, Tang Wenzhong and I will definitely do our best. Yue Feixian's nephew is not a thing in the pool, and he will definitely soar in the future. When the time comes, several of our children will follow him in glorifying their ancestors. Wang Yuanwai said.

Zhang Da and Tang Wenzhong also nodded frequently in agreement.

Yue Anren had nothing to say, so he had to agree gratefully.
