No matter how reluctant you are, you have to give it up.

Today's separation is for a better reunion in the future.

On the side of the road, Luo Fengtang stood in the cold wind, watching the carriage of Yang Ruoqing and his party drive towards the south of Wanghai County.

His hands behind his back were clenched into fists, and his bones were distinct.

It wasn't until the carriage was completely gone that he turned back to his carriage, "Let's go, go south!" ”

……

Yang Ruoqing and his entourage returned to Changping Village, and it was already the sixteenth day of the lunar month.

On the way back to the village, Yang Ruoqing met several villagers who came to the town to buy New Year's goods.

Among them, there is Mu Zichuan's mother.

Yang Ruoqing and his entourage had two carriages, so they piggybacked on these aunts and aunts along with the children they carried.

The children were very happy, probably for the first time to ride in the carriage, and they were very excited.

In Yang Ruoqing's carriage in front, she sat with Mu Zichuan's mother, Widow Liu.

Widow Liu looked at Yang Ruoqing's stomach and said, "This belly is all first."

It's falling, I'm afraid it's about to give birth, right? ”

Yang Ruoqing smiled and said, "There is still more than a month!" ”

Widow Liu said: "That's fast, you have to pay more attention, you have to be careful when you go in and out." ”

"If you don't want to be crooked, the child will come out, when I was pregnant with Zichuan, I was born before full-term, because I went to the firewood room to pull firewood, and I touched it hard." Widow Liu said.

Yang Ruoqing is now very concerned about giving birth.

When experienced women told her this, she pricked up her ears and listened with relish.

"No wonder Zichuan is a little thin and his complexion is a little pale, it turns out that he is a premature baby!"

Yang Ruoqing said in surprise.

Widow Liu nodded: "Yes, his small body is a little weak, and the sixth is before, he was sick for three days, which is really heartbreaking." ”

"Fortunately, when he grew up, his body was much stronger, and for a while, he practiced carrying water with a bucket at home every day."

"He filled the water tank with water, and when he was done, he lifted stones in the yard to practice."

"Hehe, I asked him why he practiced those, and he said that some people scolded him for being useless and a scholar, and he had to practice his strength to ......"

When Widow Liu talked about Mu Zichuan, her face was full of pride.

At first, Yang Ruoqing was also engrossed in listening, but when she heard the last sentence of 'useless is a scholar', she couldn't laugh.

Even, it's a little embarrassing.

If I am not mistaken, that sentence was given to him by her.

The reason was because he went to the pond to carry water, and he fell into the water, and she fished him up.

She laughed at him, mocking him without sparing.

Now I know that my original words caused him such a heavy burden in his heart.

However, if you think about it from another angle, it's not bad.

At least it stimulated him and made him realize that he wanted to get stronger, so his body became significantly better through that period of exercise.

"By the way, Qing'er, have you gone to the capital to see my family Zichuan this time?" Widow Liu asked.

Yang Ruoqing hooked her lips: "It's not just a look, we ate together, and he also invited my father and uncle to go out to play." ”

Widow Liu smiled and nodded: "This is how it should be." ”

"What, is my family fat or thin?" She asked again.

Yang Ruoqing thought about it, since she met Mu Zichuan, she hadn't seen him fat.

has always been thin and thin, sven, and bookish.

Seeing the expectant eyes of Widow Liu in front of her, Yang Ruoqing was embarrassed to say something against her will.

"He's still the same, not fat, but I see him eating, and he has to add another bowl and a half after eating a bowl."

"The complexion is also good, and the spirit is good." She said.

Hearing this, Widow Liu was very happy.

"Then he has grown a little bit of food, as long as he can eat, and if he can eat, he won't get sick." Widow Liu said.

"What, Qing'er, did he say when he would come home for the New Year? Today, it's the sixteenth day of the lunar month! Widow Liu asked again.

Asked about this, Yang Ruoqing hurriedly said: "He asked me to send a message to your aunt, he estimates that he will not be able to get home until after the twentieth day of the lunar month this year." ”

"At that time, in Qing'an County, in the yamen of Wanghai County, there will be people to escort him all the way back to the village."

Yang Ruoqing said.

Mu Zichuan won the Jinshi, and he was the emperor's hand-picked Tanhualang.

He is the first Tanhualang from Changping Village, Qingshui Town, Wanghai County, and even Qing'an County in the past few decades.

Therefore, this year he will return home.

Hearing what Yang Ruoqing conveyed, Widow Liu also understood what the situation was.

The woman closed her mouth with joy, and then her eyes reddened a little.

"Great, great, my family has finally survived." Widow Liu said while wiping her tears.

"This child has been studying hard, all these years, I have seen it in my eyes every day, and it hurts in my heart."

"When other people's children play outside, I don't allow them to go out and ask them to study."

"I knew he was envious, but I couldn't let him go out because he had to study."

"It's not good for him to be small, he is thinner than children of the same age, his father went early, and he is destined to have no brothers and sisters to help him."

"Growing crops at home, his bones are definitely not good."

"Go do some small business, we don't have that money."

"The only way out is to study."

"It's so good, my son finally got out, and he has been better for the rest of his life......"

Widow Liu's emotions were difficult to contain, crying and laughing, while talking to Yang Ruoqing about Mu Zichuan's childhood.

Yang Ruoqing handed over a handkerchief to wipe her tears for Widow Liu, smiled, and listened patiently.

It's like, it's like experiencing the growth process of Mu Zichuan again.

His sickly childhood, his dull and boring youth, his tired youth......

Ay!

She sighed in her heart.

Some of the best years of his life, he gave them all to books.

Fortunately, no one asked about the cold window for ten years, and he became famous all over the world in one fell swoop.

He is the darling and has survived, but how many of the countless stupid students are still struggling? Struggling?

Not to mention, his younger brother Da'an is one of them.

As for the uncle who passed away and the lobby brother who became a teacher, these were all brushed down.

Ay!

It's hard!

"Qing'er, let you laugh, I'm crying and laughing ......"

Widow Liu's words box was finally emptied, and after spitting it out, she felt surprisingly relaxed.

For more than ten years, even with her mother's family, the woman has not spoken as happily as she did today.

Yang Ruoqing understood Widow Liu's feelings.

She smiled and said: "Auntie, don't say such foreign words, everyone who is a mother in the world wants her son to become a dragon and her daughter to become a phoenix!" ”

"In the past, I may not be able to understand your feelings, but now, I am about to become a mother, I can understand it."

"You and Zichuan, it's not easy to have today!" Yang Ruoqing said sincerely.
