Chapter 78, Good Fortune (1 more.)
is different from Zhu Erlang's constant wiping of his face, Xun Muyang's waist is straight, let it blow and rain, and he is unmoved.
Driving the carriage steadily, pedaling forward.
The carriage crossed the bridge, the village, the fields, the woods, and arrived at Zhujia Village.
Xun Muyang sent the person directly to the door of Zhu's house.
The father and daughter got out of the carriage.
Xun Muyang looked at Zhu Xiao silently.
"Uncle Ayang, early tomorrow morning, we will still enter the mountain!" Zhu Xiao whispered.
Even if it rains, you have to go into the mountains.
However, it will be handled properly so that you do not get wet.
"Hmm!" Xun Muyang responded.
Drove away in a horse-drawn carriage.
The father and daughter came back, and the family didn't leave them lunch, and Zhu Erlang went back to the house, but he didn't see Zhao.
Standing at the door, stunned for a while.
Exhaled slightly and said nothing.
Zhu Xiao took Zhu Zhaodi to cook in the kitchen, and now the Lu family didn't dare to lock the food, and Zhu Xiao couldn't squander it, so he scooped up some flour, cut some bacon, and planned to cook a noodle soup to make do with it.
Cowpeas, potatoes, add some pumpkin, more vegetables and less noodles, the father and daughter ate well, and Zhu Erlang sharpened the big knife under the eaves.
He has been reluctant to use this big knife.
But now Zhu Fugui doesn't want him to hunt with him, he has to go into the mountains by himself, he plans to hold a knife, meet a fierce animal, have a competent weapon, and more or less can protect himself.
As for where the Zhao family went, Zhu Erlang didn't go out to find it.
The Lu family and the old man Zhu came in one after the other in their robes.
Seeing Zhu Erlang, Old Man Zhu glanced at him, and Zhu Erlang shouted, "Dad!" ”
"Hmm!" Old man Zhu responded indifferently, glanced at the Lu family, and went into the house to change his clothes.
"Erlang, your third uncle is dying, you can go over and see if there is anything you need help with!" Lu Shi said, paused and said, "Wen Niang is already over there to help, and someone from the Zhao family has come here today, saying that Wen Niang will take the three children back on the fifth day of the first month!" ”
Lu Shi wanted to ask something else, but it can be seen that Zhu Erlang is sharpening his big knife, and he doesn't dare to ask anything.
"Hmm!" Zhu Erlang responded.
The third uncle is already ninety-nine years old, and he is one hundred years old when he turns the year, and he is the oldest man in Zhujia Village, and he is also the oldest elder.
It's just that when he got old and was a little confused, his son and daughter-in-law were gone, and his grandsons were very good to him.
Zhu Erlang remembered that when he was a child, when he went to the third uncle's house, the third uncle would always give him some fruit to eat, but then he was confused, but he couldn't even remember who he was.
"I'll go in a minute!" Zhu Erlang added.
Lu Shi nodded with satisfaction, "Take the three children with you and let them kowtow to the third uncle!" ”
Not only to kowtow, but also to let the villagers see that the three sisters Zhu Xiaosan are still alive.
What Lu thought in his heart, Zhu Erlang didn't ask, and he didn't care much.
If he wants to be a good father, he will definitely do well.
It is what Lu thinks and calculates, as long as he doesn't hurt the three children, he won't care too much.
The rain is still falling.
Zhu Erlang put the knife away, went to find a coat and a straw hat, and called Zhu Zhaodi, Zhu Xiao, and Zhu Huaer, "You guys get dressed, and come with me to kowtow to the third uncle and grandfather!" ”
“……”
The three sisters didn't speak, nodded and followed Zhu Erlang to live in the house.
The rain became heavier and heavier, and Zhu Erlang asked the three of them to walk in front, and he walked behind.
"You walk slowly, your shoes will get wet, go kowtow and come back!"
After Zhu Erlang finished speaking, he waited for the response of his three daughters.
It's just that all three of them were concentrating on walking, and no one replied to him.
Zhu Erlang couldn't help but feel a little lost and helpless.
He tried hard to cultivate a relationship with his three daughters, but it didn't seem to have much effect.
"What about you?" Zhu Xiao asked.
"Huh? Who? Zhu Erlang hurriedly asked.
"You!"
Zhu Xiao looked back at Zhu Erlang.
"I, I'm going to help over there!"
"Where's dinner?" Zhu Xiao asked again.
"You may not come back to eat at night, when the time comes, a few of you will eat at home, what do you want to eat, cook it yourself, cook less, don't leave it behind!" Zhu Erlang commanded.
is also afraid that Lu will go home and scold.
He's not afraid, it's just unpleasant.
"Hmm!"
There's nothing to eat at home.
It's really just the right thing, or Xun Muyang has it.
Zhu Xiao is not greedy for this.
When he arrived at the third uncle's house, the third uncle's grandson walked up, "Erlang is here!" ”
"I'll come and see the third uncle, and by the way, bring the three children over to kowtow to the third uncle!" Zhu Erlang said.
The two can be considered cousins, but they are much older than each other.
"Let's get in!"
"Good!" Zhu Erlang took the third sister Zhu into the hall.
The third uncle hadn't breathed yet, but the shroud had already put on everything and was lying on the door panel.
On one side, someone kowtowed to him, all of them were juniors in Zhujia Village.
The third uncle tilted his head and looked at it, his eyes, which should have been cloudy, seemed to be very clear at this moment.
It was the turn of Zhu Erlang's father and daughter.
Zhu Erlang stepped forward and kowtowed first, "Third uncle, I'm Erlang, I'll take my three children to kowtow to you!" ”
The third uncle blinked, and he knew it.
Zhu Erlang kowtowed, got up and stood aside, it was the turn of the three sisters.
The three of them stepped forward and knelt down in unison, "Third uncle, we kowtow to you!" ”
The third uncle blinked, but gently stretched out his hand.
"Grandpa, what do you want?"
The third uncle pointed at Zhu Xiao.
For a while, everyone in the hall looked at Zhu Xiao.
“……”
Zhu Xiao was stunned.
This......
"Xiaoxiao, go over quickly!" I don't know who pushed her behind Zhu Xiao and made her stumble.
Zhu Xiao glanced back, there were several women, and I didn't know which one it was?
"Come here!" The third uncle spoke softly.
Even the word "come" is also vague.
Zhu Xiao pursed his lips.
She didn't want to go there at all.
This kind of old man, who has lived for ninety-nine, is already a human spirit, and when she is dying, she thinks it is better not to touch it.
But with so many people watching, she was afraid that if she ran away, she would be drowned in saliva.
Step by step.
The third uncle raised his hand.
"Quick, hold the hand of your third uncle!"
“……”
Zhu Xiao is full of black lines.
Swallowed his saliva and reached out to hold it.
This is a hand with only bones and skin, but it is not cold of a dying person, but has a trace of warmth.
"You, you ......"
"Grandpa, she is small, the second girl of the Erlang family!"
The third uncle was silent for a moment before he said, "Good boy! ”
Lightly opened his hand.
Zhu Xiao took a few steps back, and Zhu Erlang stepped forward to support her and comforted, "Don't be afraid, the third uncle will pass on the blessing to you!" ”
“……”
Zhu Xiaomo.
nodded lightly and stretched out his hand towards Zhu Zhaodi and Zhu Huaer.
Zhu Zhaodi and Zhu Huaer hurriedly held it, and the three sisters walked out of the hall together.
I heard a cry of grief coming from the hall, "Grandpa......"
Zhu Xiao paused, and couldn't help but look back into the hall.
The crying in the hall shook the sky, and many people knelt down.
Zhu Xiao twisted his head and looked at the sky.
The rain fell even more, just like her mood at this moment, bleak and desolate, up and down......
She didn't know that the third uncle was dying from time to time, and she saw something, but so many children, he shook hands, or was she alone?
