Zhang Xiaoyan asked Datian to slow down the carriage and carefully observe the situation of the Xue family, it seemed that something was not quite right.

It didn't take long for the second child of the Zhang family to come out of it, and he looked a lot whiter after not seeing him for a few months, most likely because the life in the city was too good.

"Mother, go in and rest. The sixth and seventh said that we had been staying in the village lately, and that they would take us to the city when they returned. The second child of the Zhang family stepped forward and pulled her mother up.

Xue Shi slowly raised his head, and suddenly his face became hideous, and he poked his fingers at the second child's head and scolded: "You useless thing, you can't even manage a daughter-in-law, waste, you are a waste!" ”

"Mother scolded right, I'm just a waste, just your seventh good, so I'm a single again." The second child of the Zhang family said unhappily, and as a result, he was unlucky.

Xue ran into the yard, took out a broom from the door and hit the second child fiercely: "Let you say my seventh child, you useless waste ......"

Xue's voice was already loud, and the villagers passing by in the vicinity couldn't help but come over to see the excitement. Zhang Xiaoyan saw that there was nothing to see, so she drove the carriage back.

"Xiaoyan, isn't that old woman crazy?" The fat girl said curiously.

"It shouldn't be, it is estimated that the sixth and seventh old men went to the domain city to drive them back from the city, and they are not happy, hey...... She deserves it! Zhang Xiaoyan said in her mouth, thinking of Aunt Qiulin, and after returning home, she deliberately went to find Aunt Qiulin and told her the news that the Xue family and the second child of the Zhang family had returned.

The old Zhang family is a bit like a spell to Qiulin, hate, but because of the fatherly love given by the old man of the Zhang family, he can't forget it. Seeing Zhang Xiaoyan's worried look, she said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm not the fool I used to be at the mercy of others, not to mention that with your Uncle Zhou by my side, the second child of the Zhang family doesn't dare to do anything to me?" ”

"Uncle Zhou, you can take a good look at Aunt Qiulin, the second child of the Zhang family is not a thing, don't let Aunt Qiulin be bullied." Zhang Xiaoyan instructed Zhou Ping next to him.

"If he dares, I'll break his hands and feet!" Zhou Ping is an honest farmer, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't have a temper.

The fat girl was amused by Zhou Ping's attitude, it was the first time she had seen him so angry.

"Don't get angry, I usually stay at home with the medicine field without going out. When the medicine field is harvested, it will be winter, and there will be fewer opportunities to go out at that time. Qiulin said in his mouth, but his heart was sweet.

Zhou Ping's family is very good to her, the family lives nearby, Qiulin is used to life here, so when she got married, Zhang Xiaoyan asked Qiulin if she would like to stay here or go to Zhou's house?

Qiu Lin has a medicine field in his heart, sometimes he gets busy until late, and it will waste a lot of time to run back and forth, and finally decided to live here, Zhou Ping's mother has no opinion, and finally Zhou Ping moved here to live.

Now the brothers in Zhou Ping's family are working in the medicine field, and the mother-in-law lives with the eldest and takes care of the children for the elders at home, often getting some wild fruits, or sending delicious ones to Qiulin.

In Qiulin's opinion, it doesn't matter what you eat, the most important thing is that people have this mind, so the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have always gotten along very well.

"I told Dr. Ding, she will come over regularly to check your pulse, and when the seeds of this issue are harvested, the medicine field will be handed over to Brother Zhi and them, you can count the number of seeds well, and see how many seeds you need to get back from Uncle Shi's side when the time comes, and ......" Zhang Xiaoyan seriously instructed Aunt Qiulin and told her all the important things.

At dinner in the evening, the family sat around the kitchen, knowing that the two of them were going to Yucheng tomorrow morning, and everyone was quite worried about the two children going out for the first time.

"Sister, I don't want you to go...... Sister ...... "The fat girl's brother rushed into the fat girl's arms and hugged the fat girl's neck tightly.

Feeling her brother's enthusiasm, the fat girl hugged the little guy in her arms: "Sister will come back in a few days, and I will bring you fun and delicious food when the time comes." ”

"No, no, no......" The little guy shook his head unwillingly, and the chubby little look was very cute.

Hahaha......

Everyone was amused by the cute little appearance of the fat girl's younger brother.

……

Early the next morning, Zhang Xiaoyan got up before dawn. I don't have much to bring, I packed it up last night and put it there, so I got up early to go up the mountain to have a look.

She had a gut feeling that the master had never left the mountain at all. However, in the past few years, I have never seen the master again.

I went up the mountain in the dark, the mountain was as quiet as if it was sleeping, and when it was cold, the insects and birds that chirped at night probably hibernated.

Coming to the familiar cave door, she stopped. This year, I spent a lot less time going up the mountain than last year, and most of my thoughts were on business, and occasionally I came up to collect some medicinal herbs.

"Master, Ming'er, me and Fat Ya, Zhao Si followed Uncle Shi to Yucheng for a walk, come and tell you. Master, it's going to be cold again, remember to keep warm if you're still in the mountains. I don't know why you don't want to come out and see each other again, but I know that you must have your own difficulties, master......" Zhang Xiaoyan stood at the entrance of the cave, talking about her concern for your master.

On a big tree not far away, the old urchin secretly wiped away his tears as he listened to Zhang Xiaoyan's confession. He has indeed been in the mountains for the past few years, and in order to prevent those people from finding out that these children are involved, he has never shown up. Occasionally, if you sneak over to take a look, you will see these guys practicing at the mouth of the cave, watching the children grow up and stealing fun next to him.

Zhang Xiaoyan's internal strength has grown a lot in recent years, and she can still feel it if something appears nearby. Maybe the old urchin was too close this time, so she quickly felt this familiar breath. Her mind was racing, and she deliberately said that she was going down the mountain, and walked forward dejectedly along the way up the mountain.

When the old urchin saw the little figure disappear, he jumped down from the tree, covered his mouth and began to cry.

"Master, since you miss us so much, why are you hiding and hiding? Master, you are so sad for the apprentice. Zhang Xiaoyan suddenly appeared behind the old naughty boy in a flash.

Belch......

The old naughty boy was stunned, turned around and hugged Zhang Xiaoyan and cried: "Stinky girl, you are smart, and the master misses you, but you can't help yourself." ”

"I know the masters, I just don't tell them. By the way, fat people, they shouldn't have been up for a long time, right? That guy is bad. Zhang Xiaoyan wiped the tears from the corners of the old urchin's eyes, wanting to get some news about the fat man from the master's mouth.

"Most of him is the person who Prince Gong put outside, you must be careful when you encounter it in the future, that fat man has a lot of thoughts!" When the old urchin talked about the fat man, the expression on his face completely changed.
