Chapter 16: Back to My Mother's Home
Mrs. Wei didn't speak, but Tong Shuangxi somewhat understood what she wanted to do.
The three of them walked around and rested until it was dark, and then they came to a village.
The village is not small, scattered and distributed on the boundaries of different heights, and from a distance, the stars and lights are also a warm and peaceful scene.
Tong Shuangxi is a little glad that he is not in the era of war at this time, if he is in the era of war and chaos, he may still be able to live that day.
"You show us the way!"
Old Mrs. Wei was obviously physically exhausted, after all, she was not young, and she was already sweaty all the way, and she was even more out of breath when she spoke.
Fortunately, with Wei Bowen on the side, he finally reached the realm.
At the beginning, the matchmaker took Mrs. Wei to the village secretly to see Tong Shuangxi, but at that time, she also took a look at it from a distance across the village, and Mrs. Wei didn't know which Tong family it was.
At this time, it is already Mrs. Wei's ability to find this place in the dark.
"I ...... I...... I......! ”
Tong Shuangxi also wanted to find a place to rest quickly, no matter what, the Tong family was also Tong Shuangxi's maiden family, but at this time, Tong Shuangxi really didn't know which door his family was!
Seeing Tong Shuangxi's squirming appearance, Mrs. Wei was really angry, she was already hungry and tired, just thinking about this Tong family's usual cowering appearance, she didn't count on her anymore, but randomly found a house with a light and knocked on the door.
The man who opened the door looked at the old woman in front of him suspiciously.
Mrs. Wei was busy pulling Tong Shuangxi behind her forward!
"Yikes! It's double happiness! Why did you come home in the middle of the night, who are these two people, are they the mother-in-law and the boy who are serving you? ”
The man only heard that Tong Shuangxi, the daughter of the second room of the Tong family, had become a concubine for a large family, but he had never seen someone from the Wei family, so it was inevitable that he would think so.
The boy refers to the little guy.
When Wei Pozi heard this, her face was inevitably bad.
"Uncle! I have something to do when I come back, it's hard to walk when it's dark, and I want my uncle to take me back! ”
Tong Shuangxi saw that the man in front of him was about thirty years old, so he could only guess and say.
Also, the people of Liuli Village live tall and low, like their family lives on flat land, it is good to say, the Tong family lives on the highest hill, although the hill is not high, but the hill is back, if you think of the Tong family, you have to pass the large and small pimple mountains.
"Wait a minute, Uncle will take you back!"
When he had finished speaking, the man turned back into the house.
There was a sound of a man talking to a woman in the house, thinking that he was explaining to the mother-in-law at home, and after coming out, he locked the door and walked to the depths of the village with Tong Shuangxi and the three of them.
The men in the village are not people who talk a lot, and a married woman with Tong Shuangxi has nothing to say, so the four of them walked so deep and shallow.
To say that the Tong family lives in a remote place, the four of them walked for two quarters of an hour before they arrived at a family.
Tong Shuangxi couldn't count how many mountain knots he had walked through, but he was so tired that he was covered in sweat, and he felt that his legs were trembling, as if he was not his own.
"Uncle Lao Gen, Aunt Lao Gen, your house is a guest!"
When he arrived at the door, the leading man slammed the door and shouted.
Tong's family and the surrounding people are all pitch black, and they have already stopped, Tong Shuangxi looked at more than ten families on this hill, and because it was dark, he couldn't tell whether it was good or bad.
"Who! Big night! ”
The old man's impatient voice came from the room, and then he heard someone's footsteps.
"Uncle, it's me, Da Houzi!"
The man replied familiarly.
"It's Da Houzi, why did you come here so late, there's something!"
With Tong Laozhu's voice, the door creaked open.
"Uncle Zhu, your family is happy to go back to your parents' house, saying that the road is not easy to walk, I brought it!" The famous man said to Tong Laozhu with a smile.
Tong Laozhu was stunned for a moment and looked at the three people behind the man.
It was pitch black, and Tong Laozhu only vaguely saw a familiar small figure, but he couldn't see who the other two were.
"Oops! It's the middle of the night, I'm really bothering you, come inside and have a cup of tea! Tong Laozhu, who paused, immediately said to the man enthusiastically.
"Old woman, hurry up and turn on the lamp and boil the water!"
The people in the village drink well water on weekdays, and they are not used to drinking hot water in summer, so they only boil the water and put a few pieces of home-dried tea leaves when they come to visit.
"No, no, the child's mother will leave the door for me, so I'll go back!"
The man shrank back, staggered Tong Laozhu's hands pulling him, turned around and walked back.
The men in the village are not so polite, and they say that they are going back.
"Remember to come and play at home!" Tong Laozhu was no longer polite, called from afar, and said nothing.
At this time, Tong Wang, who heard the movement, also walked over with an oil lamp.
"Why did the people go......!" After seeing Tong Shuangxi outside the door, he quickly pulled Tong Shuangxi into the house.
"You Nizi, why did you come back at this time!" As he spoke, he also looked Tong Shuangxi up and down.
Tong Laozhu also let the mother and son of the Wei family behind Tong Shuangxi enter the door, and then clicked and locked the door.
The granddaughter who made a concubine returned to her parents' house in the middle of the night, which is not a glorious thing, not to mention that the Wei family was burned by a fire, and the Tong family already knew about it.
Tong Shuangxi looked at the milk in front of him out of the corner of his eye.
At the age of about fifty, half of his white hair is faintly visible under the light, his face is black and yellow and wrinkled, and he is wearing a coat that he can't see whether it is black or gray, and the eye-catching patches show that the life of the Tong family is not easy.
Fortunately, the gaze that fell on Tong Shuangxi was inquiring, but it was also concerned.
"...... I...... I don't have a place to live! ”
Tong Shuangxi's hands fell into a pair of calloused hands, and the warm touch suddenly gave birth to infinite grievances and grievances in her heart.
"My miserable Nizi! Don't cry, there's milk! ”
Tong Wang hugged the thin little granddaughter in front of him into his arms, patted her back cautiously with his hand, and then looked at his old man.
Tong Laozhu understood what was going on.
At this time, all the rooms in the backyard of Tong's house heard the movement, and they all put on their clothes and came to the front.
The boss Tong Zhangjia saw Tong Shuangxi first, took off his shoes, and angrily stepped forward to beat her: "Do you still know that you can come back, didn't you be able to do it yesterday?" Pretend not to hear you when you shout! I'm still thinking that you Nizi picked a high branch, and you don't know us in your eyes anymore! ”
Tong Shuangxi, who was lying in Tong Wang's arms, was frightened by the manipulation of the person in front of him, and instinctively hid behind Tong Wang.
"Boss, there are guests at home, I can't see it!" Tong Laozhu drank his eldest son and said.
