Chapter 111: The Return
Jiangzhen hunted the day before and hunted a lot of things.
On the second day, he went to the county seat with several other hunters, sold the prey he hunted one by one, and took the fur of the red fox to a garment shop, and explained that he would make the fur into a winter coat, and planned to add it to the dowry for the Xu family.
And on the day of his absence, the Jiang family was very lively.
After breakfast, Jiang Chao went to the school to study, Jiang Xing and Jiang Qin were still lazily staying at home, Sun came out with dirty clothes, planning to clean them, and Tian was busy in the stove room.
It was supposed to be a quiet day.
At this time, there was a sudden knock on the courtyard door.
"Dad, mother, I'm back! Grandpa, Grandma! A voice rang out in the doorway.
"Huh? Hasn't Brother Chao just been gone for a long time? Why are you back? Could it be that the school will be closed again today? When Sun heard the voice, he couldn't help but look up at Jiang Xing in confusion.
She couldn't let go of her hand, so she asked Jiang Xing to go over and open the door.
"Wait and ask?" Jiang Xing muttered, and slowly went to open the courtyard door.
However, when he saw the people outside the door, the whole person was completely stupid.
He looked sluggish, rubbed his eyes, a little incredulous, and then looked at the visitor, still unable to believe his eyes, only muttered: "You, you are, you are ......"
"Dad, you don't know your son anymore? I'm Jiang Zhou. Outside the door, Jiang Zhou stood there with a tall posture, and when he saw the silly and silly appearance of his father, who he hadn't seen for many years, he couldn't help but sneer and said.
"Who?" In the courtyard, as soon as Sun heard this, the clothes that she was washing in her hand suddenly fell into the basin again, and the water droplets splashed all over her.
She also stood up in a daze, her steps were vain, and she walked towards the door almost deliriously.
But when she saw the tall young man standing at the door, the slightly dark skin, the eyes that were extremely obsessed with herself, she couldn't hold back, and quickly covered her hand, blocking the uncontrollable whimpering and crying in her throat, but she couldn't stop the tears from flowing out of her eyes all of a sudden!
"Brother Zhou! My son! O my son! ”
Sun was emotional, running all the way, shouting, crying, to Jiang Zhou, raised his hand to hug him, but thinking that his hands were wet, and he hadn't seen him for many years, a sudden surge of strange feelings made her two hands a little nowhere to put it, only a pair of tearful eyes looked at her son up and down carefully, trying to see a little bit of his change, or where there was no change.
"Mother, I miss you so much!" Jiang Zhou stepped forward and hugged Sun tightly.
On the side, Jiang Xing finally reacted, but he couldn't hold back, and the man's tears flowed out.
But he quickly wiped away his tears, turned his head and shouted into the house, "Dad! Mother! Come out! Jiang Zhou is back! ”
"Who?"
"Who are you talking about?"
When Jiang Qin and Tian heard this, they were both stunned, and hurriedly came out to take a look.
Jiang Zhou held Jiang Xing in one hand and Xu in the other, walked over to them while talking and laughing, and when he saw the two of them, he shouted loudly with a smile: "Grandpa, grandma, grandson is back!" ”
"Brother Zhou? This is really Brother Zhou! It's all grown so tall! Tian also burst into tears, hurriedly ran over, hugged Jiang Zhou is crying, "Brother Zhou!" You're really back! You've been gone for five years, and you don't even know how to write a letter, but you miss your grandmother! ”
"Alas, cry for what! No one in our family is literate, even if Brother Zhou writes a letter, you can't read it! When Jiang Qin saw his eldest grandson coming back, his old eyes were cloudy, and he was also full of tears, but he still couldn't hold back his tears, and only frowned and said a word to his mother-in-law!
"Who's to say no? Isn't the second brother literate? When Tian heard this, he raised his head and replied to his wife with a stalk around his neck.
This made Jiang Qin stunned and had nothing to say.
Jiang Zhou heard Tian mention Jiang Zhen, the smile on his face was slightly paused, and he looked left and right in the courtyard, and said, "What about the second master?" Not at home? ”
"Oh, your second master went to the county seat to sell things today, he went up the mountain yesterday to hunt a lot of things with the hunters in the village, and today he sold them for money, and he can only come back in the evening." Sun wiped his tears, took Jiang Zhou's hand, and said.
"It's a pity, I thought I could see the second master immediately, I haven't seen him for so many years, I miss him so much." Jiang Zhou lowered his head with a look of loss.
"See what he does? You haven't been able to go home for so many years, it's not all because of him! Tian remembered that he had sent his grandson away, and he couldn't help but feel a little resentful.
"What do you say?" When Jiang Qin heard this, he frowned sharply and reprimanded.
Tian's lips moved, and he lowered his head and didn't speak again.
Sun also didn't dare to say anything more.
This is a tacit agreement not to talk about in their Jiang family.
"Grandma, you can't blame the second master, the second master didn't agree with me leaving home at that time, I had to insist, I had a good life outside these years, I just felt that the original choice was not wrong, this is the life I wanted." Jiang Zhou said seriously.
"Alas, forget it, don't talk about this, Brother Zhou, sit in the house first, have you eaten? Grandma will make you breakfast! Tian pulled Jiang Zhou and asked eagerly.
"Hey, I really haven't eaten! Over the years, I have been out and well-fed and dressed, but I still miss the home-cooked meals made by my grandmother and mother the most! "Jiang Zhou is not like Jiang Chao's upright and stunned character, but he is very good at talking.
In just a few words, it narrowed the distance between him and his family in the past five years, and coaxed Tian and Sun to laugh together.
"Okay, mother, I'll cook for you with your grandmother, you go to the house with your father and your father first, sit and talk!" When Sun heard this, he went into the stove room with his mother-in-law.
One of the two boiled water and the other chopped vegetables, and they cooperated tacitly.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are in a very good mood, always with a smile on their faces, and for the first time, they feel that cooking is such a happy thing!
Jiang Zhou followed his grandfather Jiang Qin and his father Jiang Xing into the hall together.
After sitting down, he first looked left and right at the furnishings in the house, looking much newer and more valuable than when he left home five years ago, and knew that his family had a good life in the past few years.
After looking at it for a week, he remembered something again and asked, "By the way, what about the little brother?" Running out to play again? ”
"He, he went to study at a private school after dinner early in the morning!" Jiang Qin hurriedly replied.
Both he and Jiang Xing were a little cramped.
The father and son have been farmers all their lives, and they are not the kind of people who can talk, so they are sitting with Jiang Zhou at this time, racking their brains, and they don't know what to talk about or what to say.
Fortunately, Jiang Zhou has become very talkative now.
Although he knew it in his heart, he still smiled and said, "It seems that in the years since I was away, the village has changed a lot, and there are even private schools!" Is it someone in the village who passed the Xiucai exam and came back to open a private school? ”
"No, this, yes, um......" Jiang Qin thought about it, but didn't know what to say for a while.
"Cough, it's a young man called Zhiyan, he came from outside, followed by a Gu family, the Gu family, is a homeless person who fought before and fled from Jiangnan, it is said that over there in Jiangnan, it is a big family, this Zhiyan was picked up from the mountains by Gu Baoying, the little lady who is now in charge of the Gu family, said that it was a belly of ink, read a lot of books, and wrote well, Gu Baoying made the decision, let him open a private school, and teach our children here to read and write."
Jiang Xing Balabala said that he explained the entire cause and effect in detail.
