Chapter 376, The Old Courtyard

The wind blew the leaves of the magnolia tree lightly, and Chu Huaixian hugged Xiao Chu tightly under the tree, and Xiao Chu put it in Chu Huaixian's arms. A man with two children lingered under this tree.

Xiao Chu was in a trance and thought about the past from front to back, and couldn't tell whether it was quiet or satisfied, so he let out a long sigh and said in a low voice: "Childe." ”

"I'm here," Chu Huaixian smiled, stroking Xiao Chu's hair in the wind.

The laughter came, and Brother Yu and Brother Ji came together. Xiao Chu was about to leave, but Chu Huaixian didn't let her go: "Sons, what are you afraid of." Saying this, he let Xiao Chu go a little, or half-hugged her shoulders, and watched his sons come over.

The two bamboo horses dragged and dragged, and Brother Yu and Brother Ji turned around the pavilion and ran over with their hands raised with a smile. Chu Huaixian smiled: "The two sons are almost the same, right, the two of them can be companions." ”

No matter how good it is, it's good to be noisy, and play together all day.

"Brother Yu is not like an elder brother, Brother Ji treats him as a brother too much, he learns from him all day long, and he can't wait for every sentence to be the same as Brother Yu'er, and he has to say it in front of him."

When Xiao Chu said this, the two sons rushed to the front: "Look at my bamboo horse, how good is me?" ”

"My best. It was my uncle who did it. ”

Chu Huaixian said dryly: "Go play with your uncle." Brother Yu and Brother Ji ran away with a smile, and their voices came from the wind, which was said by the older Brother Yu: "They play by themselves, don't take us." ”

"Then I'll take you to play." Brother Ji'er's voice seemed to be accompanied by a nod, Brother Yu stopped when he heard it, and his little face could be heard in his voice darkening again: "I am the one who takes you to play, I am the elder brother." ”

Three-year-old Brother Ji didn't let him: "Then you," paused for a moment, and then picked up and said: "I ate a snack just now, you eat an extra piece." Brother Ji accused: "You are not an elder brother, you are a younger brother, right!" ”

Chu Huaixian and Xiao Chu looked at each other and smiled, Chu Huaixian said to Xiao Chu: "This unconscious son was born by you, an unconscious child. ”

"Half of it is yours," Xiao Chu smiled and held Chu Huaixian's arm. Chu Huaixian took Xiao Chu back: "Let's play by ourselves and give birth to a worry-free one for my grandmother." ”

The husband and wife smiled and looked at each other: "No children, is it your reason?" ”

"It has to be you."

"These two came so fast before, how did they come here?"

"You think about it and think about it, and you have a prize when you think about it."

In the wind, there was a whispered conversation like this.......

Mrs. Chu is still in the official position, and his return is a big sensation. Since that day, there have been countless people who have sent posts and things. The next day, relatives and friends came to worship; On the third day all the people inside and outside the city came to worship.

Master Taifu didn't see much, and the rest was for Chu Huaixian to see. Xiao Chu was not spared, and Mrs. Chu also felt tired, so the ladies gave Xiao Chu to see her.

There is a saying that "wealth does not return to the hometown, such as clothes and brocade at night." "When Xiao Chu sat among these ladies, he inevitably remembered when he sold flowers. She sometimes thinks, in the face of other people's envious eyes, is the clothes never sleep?

It will be five or seven days after coming back, and it will be idle to see and greet guests. In a blink of an eye, it was autumn cool, and Xiao Chu called Xiaoyi: "Go and see Aunt Wu, let people pick her up and always don't come." ”

Xiaoyi said: "The fifth aunt said, you are different now, I am afraid of embarrassing you." ”

When he went out, Sun Erhai was excited: "The previous restaurant is still there?" Xiao Chu rolled his eyes: "Is the place where you chased me back then still there?" ”

Sun Erhai didn't seem to see Xiao Chu's eyes: "Here, I said to the shopkeeper, what kind of place are you, the place where Mrs. Chu was in distress back then, you say, do you want to circle it and keep it for you to remember later?" ”

Xiao Chu and Xiao Yi made faces together: "Do you really think you are a matchmaker?" Catch your car. ”

The closer to the old place, the more Xiao Chu feels. and everything about Chu Huaixian, it seems that he was born like this.

The villages, the streets, the fields, are still the same as they were back then. Only Lin Xiaochu, the young lady of Chu, has become unable to change. The flower girl who covered her body in old clothes is now a person in splendid clothes.

In front of the carriage, he followed two family members, Duofu and Duoshou stayed in Beijing, and Jincai took a person and followed Xiao Chu out. The carriage stopped in front of Xiao Chu's old house, and when he came down, he asked Xiao Chu: "Go in and have a look?" ”

"This house has been sold." Xiao Chu is not without sadness. Jincai smiled: "Childe bought it again." Xiao Chu and Xiao Yi were pleasantly surprised together, and stretched out their heads together: "What! ”

Xiaoyi hugged his head: "Ouch, sister, you touched me." Xiao Chu's tears of pain came out, but he was still laughing: "Xiaoyi, you also touched me." ”

A car door is so big, two people stick their heads out together, it's no wonder they can't touch it.

Since it was his own, Xiao Chu happily came down with Xiaoyi to take a look. The peach tree in the yard was still there, and Xiao Yi held the tree with his hand and thought of Shengdi again: "This tree was planted by Brother Shengdi." ”

"Didn't your brother-in-law let people check, there is no one in the army called Shengdi." Speaking of the afterlife, Xiao Chu was gloomy, and smiled again: "But don't worry, your brother-in-law has asked people to check the list of those who died in battle over the years, and there is no birthplace." ”

When Xiaoyi heard that he didn't find it, he had already cried several times, and now when he heard it again, he had tears in his eyes again, and said stubbornly: "No, he must still be there." I know, I just know. ”

"Little ghost, don't quarrel with me, in my heart, I also think he must be there." There is still a word in Xiao Chuxin's heart, if the name of Shengdi has been changed, then maybe he is still there, or maybe he is on the list of the dead. And the worst of all, some soldiers are killed without even a commendation.

The peach trees in the old yard are all clean, and he said: "Since I came back, the son has asked people to clean it every day, waiting for the young lady and the little girl to come back and see." ”

When the carriage entered the village from the people, it was inevitable that there would be alarms. In the afternoon, Mrs. Qian came out of her yard with sleepy eyes open, and said to the children walking in front of the courtyard: "What is the noise, you don't sleep, little mud legs, the old lady still sleeps." ”

Xiao Chu couldn't help but smile, sometimes he missed here, and the scolding of Mrs. Qian was also in her thoughts. Seeing the old things today and hearing the old scolding again, Xiao Chu took a deep breath and really came back.

As soon as this breath was halfway inhaled, the exaggerated cry of the matchmaker sounded: "Ouch," accompanied by this ouch, as well as her fat hands clapped on her thighs with a "poof", Xiao Chu and Xiaoyi grinned, and listened to the money matchmaker striding over, as if she were seeing her relatives: "The young lady is back, ouch, it's true." Young lady,"

The person only ran halfway, and only half of the words were spoken, and the cry of the matchmaker came out: "You must know that I want to look forward to it every day and night, I think of you." ”

Xiao Chu and Xiao Yi couldn't help laughing, looking at the money matchmaker who ran out of their yard and ran to this yard to the door, and was suddenly stunned: "Sun ...... Sun Erhai? ”

The tears that were about to pour out were all frightened back when she saw the clothes of her family in front of Sun Erhai, holding a horse whip here: "Old Sun." ”

Sun Erhai stood in the crisp autumn weather, quietly and unfazed, watching Mrs. Qian shaking the fat on her face with a disbelieving expression: "It's me." Hello, Qian family. ”

Sun Erhai's Sven at this time greatly alleviated the surprise in the heart of the matchmaker. She quickly glanced at Sister Xiaochu and immediately understood. Quickly squeezed out the tears again, and rushed to Xiao Chu: "Ah, young lady, ......."

Xiao Chu and Xiao Yi whispered: "I told you that the second official is crying like a little tune, you listen to her, that's it."

The high-pitched one can catch up with the Qin dialect.

"Young lady, you are finally back, you must know me, I want to kill you." Mrs. Qian cried like this, making Xiao Chu and Xiao Yi cry so cold that their bodies were cold. Xiao Chu stroked his arm: "In this yard, why is it colder than at home?" ”

Although the voice muttered, Mrs. Qian also answered, wiped her tears and immediately smiled: "That's that, no matter how good it is here, it's not as good as the Chu family." ”

Xiao Chu didn't look at her, but only looked into the courtyard of the fifth aunt: "Why didn't anyone come out?" Qian Matchmaker was rushing to speak, and Jin Cai bowed down and said, "I'll take a look." ”

Mrs. Qian hurriedly grabbed a sentence, and she was full of smiles: "This little housekeeper is really good." Listening to Xiao Chu's frowning order: "Don't be frightened." Mrs. Qian hurriedly followed up again: "Little butler, the young lady asked you not to be scary." Then he sighed: "I am afraid of such a majestic housekeeper when I see it." ”

When Jincai came to the fifth aunt's house, he knocked on the door very politely: "Excuse me, is anyone at home?" He asked twice in a low voice, but no one answered.

Sun Erhai knew that this was the case, and followed him over to Jincai: "Look at me." He kicked twice at the door and shouted, "Anyone?" Here comes the tax collector. ”

Jin Cai smiled and leaned back, and punched Sun Erhai on the shoulder: "It's really yours, old Sun." Xiao Chu hurriedly came in with a small intention, and blamed Sun Erhai together: "You are messing around again!" ”

Sun Erhai, who was vicious just now, immediately turned into a little sheep, with grievances on his face, and retreated to the carriage on the side. Facing the autumn wind, he seemed to be extremely sad.

He really worked this time, and the fifth aunt hurriedly came out of it: "Come, come, who is it?" When she came out, the fifth aunt was stunned and stopped there motionless.

Xiao Chu, who was standing across the fence gate, shed tears with Xiao Yi and cried and shouted, "Fifth aunt." The fifth aunt also slapped her hands on herself, and hurriedly opened the door with an "ouch" sound: "Xiao Chu Xiaoyi, you are back." ”

Mrs. Qian took advantage of this time to come to Sun Erhai's side and sneered at him: "Old Sun, you are majestic now." "will also pretend to be aggrieved, Mrs. Qian looked at it, and her eyes were about to fall off.

Is this still the same Sun Erhai who was in the past, dominating on the streets?

Sun Erhai smiled: "The Qian family, eat with a mouthful of food, you don't have to say much." ”

The fifth aunt had already opened the courtyard door, and she didn't dare to get close to Xiao Chu and Xiao Yi who had come over. Looking down at her old clothes, the fifth aunt said, "Don't stain your embroidered clothes." ”

Xiao Chu and Xiao Yi ignored her, grabbed her left and right, and asked her, "Is it okay?" Xiaoyi came to see it once, and said to the fifth aunt proudly: "Look at what I said, my sister will definitely come to see you." ”

The fifth aunt smiled so much that her face bloomed, but she burst into tears, wiped it with the apron on her body, and said to Xiao Chu: "I know you miss the old, but if someone like me goes to see you, it will be embarrassing for you." I've received everything you send every year. I heard that you have two little brothers, and I like it so much that I can't sleep. Is brother good? ”

"Okay, I'm full of energy all day long, and I'm tired of the girls with them, but they're not tired." Xiao Chu said, and the fifth aunt smiled even more happily: "Boy, that's it." ”

Let Xiao Chu and Xiao Yi go into the house, and looking at the more furnishings in the house, the fifth aunt said gratefully: "I bought a lot of the money you sent." "There is a small basket on the table, and inside is a small hundred clothes.

"For the little brother, Baijiayi can avoid disasters. When I heard that you were back, I hurried to sew it. In the past, when you were in Beijing, I couldn't let anyone take it even if I did it. It's going to make people laugh if you take it away. The fifth aunt said, and hurriedly asked Xiao Chu: "Is your husband good to you, and is your in-laws good to you?" said that you are married, I inquired carefully, like a lot of people in the three houses, are you usually idle? ”

Xiao Chu smiled in the face of such concern: "Childe said that it is already good for me not to provoke idleness." The fifth aunt was stunned: "Ah, what do you say?" ”

Xiaoyi added: "My sister is in the Chu family, but she is majestic." Yes, sister," Xiao Chu smiled at her, "You still don't know." Xiaoyi scratched his head: "You always have to say it yourself, so that the fifth aunt can rest assured." That's right, Aunt Five. ”

"Xiaoyi, right, I learned it from my son." Xiao Chuxue's words: "You are the best at pleasing your brother-in-law now, and you will run away if you have something, right, brother-in-law." ”

Petty girl, hey, hey, hey.
