Chapter 178: Jiusheng's Home
"Since you've said so, I'll reluctantly agree." Jiu Chang said with a big mouth.
I turned around and glanced at Jiusheng: "Okay, since you said so, then we won't go to your house." ”
After saying that, I pretended to turn around and was about to leave, and Qing Yao and Bai Yuan immediately followed me towards the distance.
"Don't, don't, I was wrong. It's homesickness, don't do that. Jiusheng hurriedly caught up with us and said.
I smiled when I heard this, and then I turned around and followed Hisashi in the northwest direction.
Along the way, I learned from the mouth of Jiusheng. Their village is neither big nor small, with only about 20 families. The location of their village can be described as a paradise.
When spring comes, those peach blossoms will bloom. The village is surrounded by peach blossoms and the fragrance of peach blossoms, and the people who live there can be said to be very happy.
When I heard Jiusheng say this, I felt a little like I saw that place right away. But judging from the current season, I guess by the time we get there, the peach blossoms will have already fallen.
When Jiusheng told me, his face was filled with a happy smile, and it was clear that he really liked it.
Although Jiusheng said that it was not far, we walked this journey for half a month.
Finally, one day, we walked to that place. At this time, the peach blossoms have long since fallen, but there are still a lot of peach petals on the ground, which looks like a carpet at this time.
"Wow, this place is so beautiful." The white mandarin duck said as he ran forward.
I smiled and thought to myself, this is indeed a beautiful place. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's a paradise, but it's a pity that I didn't see the scene of peach blossoms blooming, which also makes me have a trace of regret.
"It's not far ahead, everyone's working hard." Hisashi said with a smile.
I nodded, and then quickened my pace. We had not gone far when I saw a stream not far away.
The stream shuttles between the peach forests, and it looks sparkling from a distance, which is very beautiful. As we approached, I noticed that the water was very clear, and I could occasionally see a small fish or two swimming in it.
Hisashi didn't stop to look at the stream, but instead quickened his pace and walked forward.
Through the peach forest, I can vaguely see that there are houses in the distance. I thought to myself that this long life has arrived at the doorstep, so it may not be too anxious.
But after thinking about it, I haven't been back for more than ten years, and homesickness is inevitable.
Then I was ready to continue to follow Jiusheng, but at this time, I vaguely felt the breath of the demon. This aura only existed for a moment and disappeared without a trace, I looked around, but there was nothing but peach trees around, what kind of demon was there. I turned my head to look at Qing Yao, thinking that maybe I was thinking too much, maybe it was the breath on Qing Yao's body.
With that in mind, I continued to walk forward.
Soon after, we walked out of the peach grove. What caught my eye was the houses, which were arranged in an irregular manner on the distant land.
I followed Hisashi towards the village, occasionally encountering a pedestrian or two along the way. They all looked at the four of us with strange eyes, as if they were looking at something rare.
The more Hisashi walked into the village, the faster his steps became, and I could barely keep up with them.
Hisashi came to the closed door of a compound, and then he knocked on the door.
"Bang....... Peng Peng. ”
"Who?" A moment later, a voice came from inside the courtyard, and it sounded like a man.
Hisashi didn't answer immediately, but I could clearly see his hands shaking. I gently patted Hisashi on the shoulder, signaling him not to be nervous.
Soon after, the courtyard door slowly opened, and a man in his mid-middle years appeared in front of us.
The man looked at the four of us with a puzzled expression, and finally he fixed his gaze on Jiusheng's body.
"Who are you looking for?" The man looked at Hisashi and asked.
"Dad, don't you know me? I'm a long life. Hisashi said as he looked at the man.
After hearing this, the man walked out and looked at Jiusheng with a frown: "Jiusheng? ”
Jiusheng became even more anxious when he saw the man like this, and then said: "I'm Li Sheng, I was sent by you to learn Taoism from the Fat Eight Dao Chief, so I changed my name to Jiusheng." ”
"You...... Are you really a long life? The man asked, looking at Hisashi in a trembling voice.
Jiusheng immediately replied: "It's really me, Dad, I'm coming back to see you." ”
"Sanwazi, it's really you back." The man said as he touched his long-lived fleshy face with trembling hands.
Jiusheng nodded with red eyes, and the man kept looking Jiusheng up and down.
"Three babies, take a quick turn and let Dad take a good look." The woman looked at Hisashi and said.
After hearing this, Jiusheng hurriedly turned around in place, so that this mother who hadn't seen her for more than ten years could take a look.
"Good...... That's nice. The three babies are, the three babies are back. Hisashi looked at Hisashi and said, then turned his head and shouted into the courtyard.
A woman's voice sounded in the courtyard after a while: "What three babies are back, the three babies have been gone for more than ten years." We don't know what happened to him now, how could he possibly come back. ”
After hearing this voice, I thought this should be Jiusheng's mother.
A moment later, a middle-aged woman with gray hair appeared in the courtyard.
When Jiusheng saw the woman, he sped a few steps to the woman and knelt down directly.
At this moment, the tears finally slipped down, and his hesitant mouth finally shouted: "Mother......"
The woman suddenly knelt down in the face of Jiusheng, and she was directly stunned in place. After a long time, she came back to her senses and looked at Jiusheng, with an expression of disbelief written on her face.
"Baby, what are you doing stupidly. This is the third baby, he is Li Sheng. Hisashi's father shouted at the woman from the side.
When the woman heard this, she still couldn't believe it.
"Dad, I'm really Li Sheng, look at the birthmark on my arm." As he spoke, Jiusheng rolled up his sleeves and revealed the dark red birthmark on his arm.
When the woman saw the birthmark, she directly squatted down and hugged Jiusheng: "You dead baby, why did you come back now." Do you know how much your father misses you......"
Jiusheng's mother said while patting Jiusheng's back. It can be seen that the long-born mother wants to cry at this time, but she is forcibly controlling her emotions.
In this way, the two hugged for a long time, and Jiusheng separated from his mother.
"Daddy, let me introduce you to you, these are all my friends. This is Chu Yan, my brother who has died. Those two girls met in Chu Yan's village, and they were both Chu Yan's good friends. Hisashi said as he pulled his father and mother to our side.
"Hello uncle and aunt." I bowed politely and said.
Then at my suggestion, Qing Yao and Bai Yuan also bowed to their long-lived father.
"This boy is really handsome, and these two girls are also beautiful." Jiusheng's mother looked at the three of us and said.
After hearing this, I smiled and said, "My aunt has a good reputation." ”
"This boy can be, polite, and knowledgeable at first glance." Jiusheng's father looked at me and said appreciatively.
"Dad, don't praise him, he's a nerd." Hisashi looked at me and said.
Who knew that after Jiusheng's father heard this, he directly turned around and patted Jiusheng's head gently: "You shameless third baby, you are embarrassed to talk about others." You have a basket of big words from time to time, and you are still talking with a big mouth here, I know how to eat when I see you, what kind of fat you have become. ”
Jiusheng looked at his father with an aggrieved face and said, "Dad, why are you still the same as more than ten years ago, why do you still do it at every turn." ”
"Ignore them, children, hurry into the house, don't stand here." Jiusheng's mother looked at us and said.
When Jiusheng's father heard this, he hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, yes, look at my brain, hurry into the house and rest." ”
With that, he pulled me towards the house, and Jiusheng was put aside.
When I passed by Jiusheng, Jiusheng looked at me and muttered quietly, "I didn't bring you here if I knew I wouldn't have brought you here, but now I've stolen the limelight." ”
I winked at Hisashi as if to show off. Jiusheng glanced at me directly after seeing it, and then followed Qing Yao and the others into the courtyard.
When I walked into the yard, I found that Jiusheng's home was still quite large. Thinking back to passing by other people's homes, I think the courtyard of the Hisashi family must be the largest in the village.
I followed my father into the main house, and the furnishings in the house were also very regular. Looking at the arrangement of the house, if I hadn't known that this was in a village, I would have thought that I had entered the family in the county seat.
The furniture in the house can be said to be antique, not how luxurious, but very charming.
"Baby, sit casually, you're welcome. You are a good brother of the three children, and coming here is like going back to your own home. Jiusheng's father said to me.
I smiled and nodded, and after my father sat down, I was in the guest position.
"Dad, what are my second brother and eldest brother doing?" As soon as Jiusheng entered the house, he looked at his father and asked.
Who knew that when Jiusheng's father heard Jiusheng's question, his face instantly became unsightly: "It's rare for you to come back today, so I won't mention those two beasts." ”
"It's rare for the three babies to come back, I'll prepare some good wine and food, and sit down for a while." Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Jiusheng's mother hurriedly said.
After saying that, Jiusheng's mother turned around and left, while Jiusheng looked at his father suspiciously. Then, Jiusheng was ready to open his mouth to ask again.
I hurriedly interrupted Jiusheng and said, "Jiusheng, it's rare for you to come back once, and you have to have a drink with your uncle in a while." ”
Then I glanced at Jiusheng, and when Jiusheng saw it, he hurriedly changed his mouth and said, "Yes, now that I'm older, I can fight with my father for a good drink." ”
