Chapter 129
Before leaving, Xiangru asked them to take all their burdens away, leaving only a few underwear by their side, and asked Xie to bring her a pack of coarse cloth clothes tomorrow morning, in addition to the 'private' house money and all kinds of valuable noodles and other things she had saved over the years, she also gave Xie Ziyan together, only took a few pennies and a handful of silver horns on her body, put it on her body for about twenty taels of silver, and her hair was curled up with a wooden hairpin, deliberately putting herself It's shabby.
Early the next morning, the three of Xie came to the post house again, they waited outside the post house for Xiangru to come out this time, because of the route, the two girls and Xiangru were on different paths, and the three of them went their own way, so Xie had time to say a few more words, and gave her the clothes that Xiangru wanted, and by the way, they introduced Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou, who were with them all the way, to Xiangru, and told Xiangru that after Xiangru arrived in Gusang County, Uncle Zhou and his family would temporarily live in the Xiangjia branch, and they would go there to find them if they had something.
Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou are all sons of the Xie family, honest and responsible, loyal and reliable, and the Xie family sent them to follow them to rest assured. After Xiangru saluted the two old men, she took out her official card and hid it with Aunt Zhou, so as not to accidentally 'expose' her feet when she returned home. After everything was completed, Xiangru said goodbye to Xie and the others, got into the carriage of the post house, and set off to return to her hometown.
Everything went smoothly on the road, except for the cold weather, the others were fine, the weather was sunny to cloudy, there was no wind and snow, the carriage ran happily on the official road every day, and arrived at the Gusang County Post House in the evening five days later, but at this time the county government was no longer working, so it was decided to enter the city again tomorrow morning.
After Xiangru was sent to the post house, the post soldiers 'handed over', and the escort mission of the post soldiers in the capital ended. Tomorrow, the local post house will send Xiangru into the city to go to the county government office to go through the formalities, and Zhou Bo and his wife have not seen them since they set off, thinking that the old man is old, and maybe their horses are not as strong as the horses in the post house, so they are left behind.
Early the next morning, Xiangru dressed up and had breakfast at the post house, got into a carriage, and was escorted into the city by the post soldiers to the county government, put down Xiangru at the county government's 'door', gave her the paperwork, and asked her to go in to find Hucao to 'hand' over the documents to go through the naturalization procedures.
The procedure time is very fast, a total of two quarters of an hour, Hu Cao checked the documents, checked the household registration information and helped Xiangru complete the naturalization procedures, Xiangru got her own identity documents, restored He Dani's original name, and then listened to Hu Cao's 'handover' after some matters, farewell to Hu Cao and walked out of the county office.
Standing on the street in front of the county government's 'door', He Xiangru, no, it is He Dani from now on, looking at the unfamiliar street scene, suddenly felt in a trance, not knowing where to go next, whether to go home first or to recognize the location of the Xiangjia branch first.
Thinking about it, He Dani felt that if she came back, she would inquire about the Xiangjia branch all over the city and have the risk of her own intentions, the county seat is too small, and a little sesame mung bean can spread all over the city in a day, she doesn't take this risk, it's better to go shopping first, such a big shop 'door' face must be very big, it should be easy to find.
He Dani has been in the palace since she was a child, and now that she has come back, she is of course "impossible to know" the current address of her home, and Xiangru is not in a hurry to ask passers-by, but slowly walks along the county street with her baggage.
Because Gusang County has formed a distribution center for raw 'medicine' materials, there are many businessmen from other places, and it has attracted a lot of strong laborers from surrounding villages and towns to come here to find work, so He Dani's shabby dress walking on the street did not attract the attention of passers-by at all, and there are too many people like her in this county.
Like a newcomer to the city, He Dani inquired all the way to the downtown commercial street of the county seat, walked slowly from the street to the end of the street, and saw the Liang Ji 'medicine' shop of her stepmother's mother's house, and also saw the signboard of the Xiangjia branch.
He Dani stood at the 'door' of the Xiangjia branch for a while, noting down the 'door' face of the shop and the surrounding environment, and the guys in the store didn't bother to come out to greet her when they saw that He Dani was not a merchant, so they let her look casually outside the 'door'.
After reading what she wanted to see, He Dani turned around and went to Liang Kee's 'medicine' shop, her father He Dawei was a sitting doctor in the Liang Kee 'medicine' shop of his stepmother's mother's house, so where is his own family to find here.
He Dani stood in front of the 'door' of Liang Kee's 'medicine' shop, looking left and right at the probe to probe her brain, looking like she wanted to go in but didn't dare, the guy inside looked impatient, and came out to ask her, "Hey, girl, do you want to come in and buy 'medicine'?" ”
He Dani stepped forward timidly, first came to a dignified court style of Wan Fuli, bluffed the guy into taking two steps back, stared at He Dani with wide eyes, and for a while he couldn't figure out what the girl in front of him was.
"Little brother, excuse me, please inquire, is this Liang Ji 'medicine' shop still the old Liang Ji from more than ten years ago?" He Dani finished saluting and asked in a proper manner.
The girl asked strangely, of course our Liang is still the old Liang of the year, and it has not changed. Girl, this is ——? Influenced by He Dani's salute, the man also restrained.
He Dani immediately smiled, "Then may I ask, is Master Liang in the store?" ”
"Are you looking for our owner? Then come in, and I'll take you to the shopkeeper. What do you call a girl? The guy led He Dani into the store and walked to the counter.
"My surname is He, from the capital." The guy nodded, came to the counter and said to the shopkeeper: "This is Miss He from the capital, who said that she was looking for our owner." ”
The shopkeeper was dressed in a blue cloth cotton robe, with white hair, holding a pen in his right hand, looking He Dani up and down a few times, and asked with a shelf: "Does Miss He have anything to do with our owner?" ”
He Dani first performed a standard palace blessing ceremony to the shopkeeper, and also bluffed the shopkeeper, and then took out the identity document from his arms and opened it and handed it to the shopkeeper for inspection, and then said slowly, "I am He Dani, the doctor who came out of the palace, I went to the post house last night, and I have gone through the formalities in the county office this morning, this is the identity document that Hu Cao just gave me." I didn't expect that after ten years, things are wrong, I can't find where my home is, and when I passed by your shop, I remembered that Mr. Liang was my stepmother's father, so I took the liberty to come in and ask. Please ask the shopkeeper to pass it on on your behalf. ”
After speaking, He Dani saluted again.
The shopkeeper and the guy were really surprised after hearing it, and then looked at the identity document that clearly said He Dawei's parent's 'daughter' He Dani, and the well-informed shopkeeper followed and said that he couldn't say anything, "You, you, you are the big girl of He He's family?" ”
"I don't dare to make a difference, but I am the 'daughter' of the He family, my father used to open a medical center, and the shopkeeper knows me?" He Dani pretended to be 'confused' and 'confused'.
The shopkeeper didn't answer He Dani's question first, and yelled at the guy, "What about Dr. He?" ”
"Treat people in the back room."
"Why don't you call it now? His 'daughter' is back! ”
"Yes, yes, yes!" The guy trotted and went to report the news.
After the shopkeeper finished yelling, he turned his head and said to He Dani with a smile on his face, walked out of the counter quickly, returned the identity document to He Dani, and led her to sit under the window, "Girl, please sit down, wait a while, your father will come out immediately."
"Shopkeeper, how can my father treat people here?? What about my home doctor? He Dani "didn't know anything", and when she heard the news from home as soon as she came back, she naturally had to inquire clearly.
The shopkeeper stomped his feet, and he couldn't say anything, "Oh, girl, your family has suffered a great disaster, wait for your father to come out and ask him to tell you in detail." Alas, your family has had a hard time in the past few years. ”
"What the hell is going on?" He Dani wanted to ask, but the shopkeeper waved his hand and didn't say more, and beckoned another guy to come over to serve tea, and he returned to the counter to continue his work.
He Dani was really tired after walking for so long, so she picked up the teacup and drank it slowly in the form of court etiquette, completely ignoring the curious eyes of the other guys, patients and merchants in the store.
A moment later, the man who had reported the news ran back, followed by two elderly men, one with white sideburns and haggard wearing a white-washed old blue cloth cotton robe, and the other with white hair but wearing a half-worn brocade and green cotton robe with white hair.
The two anxiously ran out with the guy.
"Doctor He, this girl, your eldest 'daughter'." The man said to the man in the old robes.
He Dawei came three steps in front of He Dani with trembling hands, and looked He Dani up and down with a pair of cloudy eyes, He Dani put down the teacup and looked at the other party.
It seems that the life of the family has not been good in the past few years, his cheap father is obviously only in his forties, but his appearance is so old that he is comparable to the old man behind him, if he doesn't say it, he thinks the two are about the same age.
"You, you're Dani?" He Dawei looked at He Dani, whose silhouette resembled his ex-wife, and his heart was already 'excited' but he didn't dare to recognize him immediately.
"I'm Dani and you're me...... Father......? Xiangru also looked hesitant, and slowly got up, wrapping her hands in her sleeves.
"What a Dani! Dani, I'm your father, I'm your father! He Dawei was tearful and completely out of shape.
"The 'daughter' has seen her father." He Dani's eyes were slightly red, and the hands hidden in her sleeves pinched the tender 'meat' of her wrists, causing tears in pain, and she sniffed and choked up to give her father a big salute.
The onlookers, patients, and merchants also wiped their tears with their sleeves, which was really touching.
"Dawei, why don't you do it today, take Dani home and have a good rest, she came back from the capital, and she worked hard all the way." The old man behind him stepped forward and said.
"Thank you, father-in-law, Dani, come, this is your grandfather." He Dawei wiped his tears and snot and called Xiangru to recognize his relatives.
"I've seen my grandfather." Xiangru saluted.
"Good, good, good boy. Come on, hurry up and prepare the car and send Dr. He and Miss He home. ”
The guy invited He Dawei and He Dani to the backyard, put on a big car, laid straw, helped He Dawei and He Dani to sit down, and went out from the backyard to He's house.
The crowd in front of them who had seen enough of the excitement immediately spread the news to the street, and soon the surrounding neighbors and shops knew about the return of the eldest 'daughter' of the He family from the palace
