Liu Dahe found someone to bring a letter to his sister Liu Yunniang's in-laws, so today Uncle Wen also brought his eldest son Wen Heng over to congratulate him.

Wen Heng picked up two baskets full of things, which were filled with the things sold in Wen Kee's grocery store, which were all used daily, which was very real.

Liu Dahe was a little embarrassed, "Brother-in-law, you are too polite, just come over, you don't have to bring so many things." ”

He also instructed Ah Niu: "Ah Niu, come and take the flat burden quickly." ”

The Wen family father and son finished eating the flowing water banquet in front of the Liu ancestral hall, followed Xiao Qi and Liu Dahe back to the Hua family, and sat in the hall chatting.

Xiao Qi's aunt Liu Yunniang was separated from her family when she fled the famine, and only Uncle Wen and his son Wen Heng returned to Phoenix Town intact.

After returning from the famine, Uncle Wen's family lived a very poor life, and they struggled to guard the Wen Ji grocery store, making ends meet, and the people were poor after the disaster, and the business in the shop was very bad.

Xiao Qi packed up a few beautiful silks brought from Pengzhou City, and said to his eldest cousin Wen Heng: "You can bring these back to make clothes to wear." ”

Uncle Wen smiled and said: "We usually can't wear silk, so we brought back such good materials for nothing, so let's keep them for your father and Ah Fu to make clothes." ”

Seeing that Wen Heng was wearing clothes with patches, Liu Dahe was very distressed, "Ah Fu and I have them, you can take these back to make a few clothes." ”

Xiao Qi asked Octagon to help put away the things sent by Uncle Wen's father and son, and stuffed the silk and other return gifts into the basket: "This is what I specially prepared for my uncle and eldest cousin, and my aunt brought me a lot of good materials to make new clothes when I was a child." ”

Uncle Wen looked at the luxurious silk in the basket and couldn't help choking: "In the abominable famine year, when the road was messy, I was separated from your aunt's little cousin, and I don't know where your aunt and her are suffering?" ”

On the way to escape, Uncle Wen devoted all his mind to taking care of his mother, so he blamed himself for the loss of his daughter-in-law and youngest son, and he was much thinner than a few years ago.

Xiao Qi comforted: "I believe that my aunt and little cousin will definitely be auspicious, I am now a head catcher, I know a lot of people, and I will help inquire about my aunt's news." ”

In fact, Xiao Qi is not very confident in finding his aunt Liu Yunniang, just like the parents of Stinky Duck Egg, Stinky Duck Egg has traveled to many places in the past few years, but he has not found anyone yet.

Liu Dahe handed a red envelope to Wen Heng: "Heng'er has already married, your uncle was not there when you married, and this red envelope was made up to you by your uncle." ”

Wen Heng blushed and didn't accept the red seal: "Uncle, I, I haven't married yet." ”

Uncle Wen also showed an embarrassed look on his face: "Heng'er's previous betrothed girl escaped from the famine and didn't come back, he is also old, I have always asked the matchmaker to help me see it, but it has never been successful, and now Heng'er is twenty-five." ”

Uncle Wen sighed again and again, "It's all the fault of the poor, and I blame me for not being capable." ”

Liu Dahe was uncomfortable when he heard it, so after Xiao Qi and Bajiao gave a good return, he secretly stuffed fifty taels of silver at the bottom of the basket, and with these silvers, he hoped that Wen Heng could marry his daughter-in-law earlier.

Several people sent the Wen family father and son outside the courtyard, and Ah Niu carried the basket to the door.

Wen Heng was a little embarrassed to carry the flat burden: "Cousin Xiaoqi put a lot of good things in the basket, it's very heavy." ”

"Cousin, don't be polite, remember to send us a letter if you have something in the future."

Back in the town, Uncle Wen packed up the things in the basket and found fifty taels of silver at the bottom of the basket.

He showed the silver to his son Wen Heng: "With this silver, your marriage should not be a problem, your uncle is good to us, Heng'er, you have to keep it in mind, and you must repay your uncle in the future." ”

Wen Heng nodded solemnly: "I remember, Dad." ”

……

After the Wen family father and son left, Liu Dahe went to the patriarch's house, and after several village chiefs from other villages finished eating, they also stayed at the patriarch's house to chat.

After eating, most of the guests were sent away, and Liu Laosan, who was in charge of greeting the people of the village to eat and drink, reported to Liu Dayu: "The princess who delivered the baby in the village did not come, and I heard that she seems to be sick." ”

Granny Wang's family was all gone during the escape process, and she was left alone to return to the village alone, and her body was still good, but since she heard that Liu Dahe's family came back, she fell ill.

Liu Dahe was a little worried when he heard that Mrs. Wang was sick: "My family Ah Fu and Xiao Qi were delivered by her old man, I'll go and see first, I'm out of company, you guys stay and drink some tea first, this tea is sent by the magistrate, it's delicious." ”

The head of Niujia Village has drunk tea a few times, but he doesn't know the quality of tea, and thinks that all the tea leaves are about the same. ”

Niu Niu, the village chief of Yujia Village, drank a big bowl and echoed: "Yes, yes, this is the best tea I have ever drunk." ”

In fact, Yujia Village is more remote and poor than Wangjia Village, and it is the first time for the village chief to drink tea, where can he understand the quality of tea.

"Sit down, everyone, and we'll go back."

The patriarch Liu Dayu got up and accompanied Liu Dahe to the house of the prince.

When he arrived at the door of Mrs. Wang's house, Liu Laosan knocked on the door for a long time and no one answered, and the windows were closed tightly.

Liu Dahe saw Mrs. Wang lying motionless on the bed through the window, and her heart was not good, so she immediately kicked the door open violently.

When several people walked into the house, they saw Mrs. Wang lying on the bed, her face flushed.

There was a musty smell in the room, and Liu Laosan couldn't help but cover his nose with his hands.

Liu Dahe put his hand on the forehead of Mrs. Wang, it was so hot, he immediately ordered Ah Niu, who was standing behind him: "Ah Niu, go back and bring some of our antipyretic medicine, and by the way, bring one of Mrs. Wang's maids over to help take care of it." ”

After Ah Niu came out of the house, Liu Dahe turned to Liu Dayu and said: "My forehead is very hot, take the side medicine first, and if it can't be burned, I will send it to the town medical center by car." ”

……

Before resting in the evening, Liu Dahe said to Niu's family: "Mrs. Wang is very sick, you can bring some supplements tomorrow to see her old man, after all, he helped us deliver Ah Fu and Xiao Qi." ”

Niu's uh-huh, but he didn't think so, isn't he just a country woman, and now he is everyone's wife.

But since Liu Dahe mentioned it, she couldn't refute Liu Dahe's face, thinking that tomorrow she would just point someone to bring something to take a look.

Two days later, Niu's mother has been buried, Niu is thinking about returning to Pengzhou City as soon as possible, this rural place is very crowded, the house is low and damp, the windows are small, and it is really depressing to live.

In fact, they now live in the big tiled house of the Hua family, which is the best in Liujia Village.

When she used to live in Liujia Village, the Niu family also envied the big house of the Hua family, but after staying in Pengzhou City, her vision became higher and she was a little disdainful of the Hua family's tiled house.
