On the board, there is a row of dish names and prices written in vermilion characters, the price is extremely cheap, divided into one penny, two pennies, and five pennies, a total of three kinds, the first two vegetarian dishes with rice, the second is one meat and one vegetarian plus a bowl of old fire soup with rice, the third is two meat and two vegetables plus old fire soup......

The dishes in the porcelain pot look bright in color and have a strong fragrance, which is really good!

"Huh? Shopkeeper, what is this? The old man in green shirt took a sip of wine, looked at the big characters on the wooden board curiously, and saw a long queue on the side of Shilixiang Restaurant, many sweaty cement pickers, boatmen, and all kinds of small workers on the dock consciously and spontaneously gathered in front of the door with dishes and chopsticks, and couldn't help but raise their eyebrows in confusion.

The old shopkeeper did not hide it, and said with a smile: "Oh, this is fast food, the ingredients used are leftovers from the whole fish banquet or other big meals, it is a pity to waste it, just make it, sell it cheaper, these people on the dock who are not rich in hand, spend one or two big sons to eat a good meal, don't wait, can't delay the work, our food is not wasted, and we can make a few small bucks...... Hehe, speaking of which, this is still a time when the lady of the Lou family came to the small shop for dinner, and saw that many small workers on the dock were cold steamed buns and passed the lunch, so she discussed with me to make a move to benefit the people. ”

A flash of surprise flashed in the old man's eyes, and he said in his heart, the restaurant and the common people are affordable, so it is a good idea, it seems that this Lou lady is really good-hearted and good-hearted.

The old and young looked at each other, and they were more or less curious about this famous Lou family lady!

When Shili Xiang was idle, the shopkeeper Li took the account book, saying that he was just taking it to the Lou family lady to see, and when he accompanied the three guests to seek medical treatment, it had already passed noon, but fortunately, the weather was clear, and the road was better than before.

The carriage walked unhurriedly on the mountain road, leaving the bustling streets, and the mountain road gradually became steeper and steeper as it became more and more remote.

Xiaolou opened the curtains and looked at the mountains and flowers outside, but there were fewer pedestrians, and occasionally a few wolf howls and tiger roars faintly came, and he couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Is the Lou family very remote?" ”

"The Lou family moved to the foot of Daqing Mountain three years ago, near Jinshan Village, the location is indeed remote, but the road is still easy to walk, if you really seek medical treatment, it is only half a day to drive."

“…… I just heard from a customer in the store that the Lou family now only has two mothers-in-law and daughter-in-law and three elementary school apprentices...... Living in such a remote area, aren't you afraid of encountering thieves and robbers? Besides, I see a lot of wild mouths on the mountain......"

"Dangerous?" Shopkeeper Li was stunned, and then said with a smile, "It won't be dangerous, if there are really thieves who are worried about their family, then they don't want to live, hehe, as for the wild mouth...... Rong Lao Yu sold a pass, and when he got to the ground, the old gentleman and the little brother naturally understood. ”

The old man in the green shirt stroked his beard, and he didn't care, he was old, and now he was calm, although he was curious, but since the other party wanted to sell a pass, he would not be reluctant, until Xiaolou was still young, he was so curious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, and he couldn't wait to go to the ground now.

Looking at the behavior of the old and the young, the shopkeeper Li smiled, sighed, somehow, actually had a little bit of sex, "Speaking of which, the Lou family lady is really not easy, I heard that the Lou family's ancestral home is Yunnan, and the ancestors are also a big family, but unfortunately it was passed on to the generation of the Lou family, and it was defeated.

But the old man Lou didn't know what was crazy, he really sold his property, took the fox spirit concubine, and went away in the name of the merchant, this time, he didn't go back for many years, the old lady was heartbroken, cried and broke her eyes, and her health was not good, if it weren't for the daughter-in-law who was married in the early years to come to Lou's house and take care of her mother-in-law, the old lady didn't know if she could survive! ”

As soon as Shopkeeper Li said these few words, the young man known as Xiaolou, his face changed instantly, and the old man in green shirt and Ding Feng, who was driving in front, also gasped.

Surname Lou, Yunnan, the only son who was forced away? Xiao Lou was excited in his heart, he had been looking for his family for many years, and it seemed that he had found it? It's just, my mother's eyes are blind? Xiao Lou's eyes darkened, and his face changed miserably......

Fortunately, the shopkeeper Li did not find their gaffe: "A few years ago, there was a war and chaos in Yunnan, and there was a plague after the disaster...... Hey, Mrs. Lou is also a blessed person, she has such a daughter-in-law who is both filial and considerate, and has the ability, and now, she has regained her sight and her body is healthy, and a daughter-in-law like this is more than a hundred sons and daughters......"

Xiaolou's face was flushed when he said this, and he couldn't help coughing in a low voice for a long time, the old man in green shirt glanced at him, sighed, and interjected to ask about Wuchang's folk customs and special snacks, and diverted the topic......

The carriage went on and on, until it was dark, and finally saw the farm built at the foot of the mountain, in front of the door were two rows of fruit trees, there were apple trees and pear trees, probably past the harvest season, there was no fruit on the trees at present, but the leaves were green and fruity, and the scenery was idyllic......

-- Split --

Ding Feng was dumbfounded, holding the reins in his hand, and making the action of stopping, Xiao Lou just chatted about the door curtain, and before he got out of the car, his whole body stiffened.

Fortunately, these people seem to have seen the world, and Ding Feng and Xiaolou are not powerless scholars, so everyone was only stunned for a moment.

Ding Feng coughed, first helped Xiaolou to get out of the car, saw that his face was pale, a little uneasy, frowned and whispered comfort: "You have been looking for more than three years, don't be in a hurry." ”

Then, Ding Feng and Xiao Lou stretched out their hands together, and then put the old man in green shirt and Shopkeeper Li Next, several people glanced at each other, and said with a wry smile: "No wonder Shopkeeper Li said that the Lou family is not afraid of thieves......

The old man in green shirt saw the staring in front of the door, although he was lazily not moving, but the king of beasts with a fierce breath, he was also stunned, there was a bloody green sheep lying in front of this tiger, he was still convulsive and did not completely lose his breath, and the blood in his throat gushed outward, obviously, it was not a sick tiger who was bullied by dogs in Pingyang, but a very robust and wild adult tiger!

Shopkeeper Li never squinted, his face was a little pale, and he smiled bitterly: "I come here almost once a month, but I still don't get used to this tiger watchman...... Moniel, Moniel, Lao Li is here......"

Shopkeeper Li called twice, the door opened, and a girl wearing a blue floral jacket and carrying an extremely sharp kitchen knife in her hand, looking sixteen or seventeen years old, walked out, "It's Shopkeeper Li, why did you come here so early this month?" ”

"Moniel, there are a few outsiders who have come to seek medical treatment, can the lady of the Lou family get up?"

The little girl nodded, rolled her eyes, saw that it was a few outsiders she had never seen, pursed her lips and smiled, not knowing what to remember, first squatted down, flicked the tiger's head, stabbed it on the neck of the green sheep, and ended it, and then raised her hand to cut off a piece of meat on the back waist and hind legs.

Xiao Lou choked when he saw it, and muttered in his heart, the little girl's knife skills are really neat, and she is also very ruthless, killing sheep without even blinking her eyes...... Is there really her own mother who eats fasting and recites Buddha here?

The little girl raised her head generously, first gave a few salutes to the old man in green shirt, and said with a smile: "At this time, my young lady has just operated on a lame fox, and is now washing, if you are not an emergency, please go to the side hall to sit for a while......

Fox? Surgery? What is this...... Looking at the surprised eyes of the three guests, Shopkeeper Li smiled bitterly: "Hehe, fortunately, it's the right time today, it seems that there is no need to queue up......"

The old man in the green shirt didn't have time to speak, and the words of the shopkeeper Li did not fall, and suddenly there was a sound of footsteps, but it was the old lady Lou who was on crutches and carrying a basket, while whispering to the little girl who was supporting her beside her, and walked towards the door, others did not have a big reaction, Xiaolou saw the face of the old lady, and then raised her eyes to see her neatly combed but snow-white hair and frosty face, hot tears surged down at once, and her heart was shocked, her legs bent suddenly, and she knelt firmly on the bluestone floor, and roared: "Mother!"

As soon as he shouted, as soon as the old lady raised her head, her eyes immediately widened, her hands trembled, her breathing was also a lot shorter, and her face was flushed, but as soon as she turned around, she shouted to the house first: "Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, come out quickly, come out quickly, Brother Xiaolou is back, he is back!" ”

In addition to the crying, there was silence for a while, Xiaolou was even more mixed, he had imagined countless meetings with his mother, but he didn't expect that the reunion that he had been thinking about for many years, and even had no hope, came so quickly and abruptly, just now, he was still worried that he didn't know if he would also be disappointed this time, so that at this moment, he was full of excitement, but he couldn't spit out his stomach of worries and questions.

At this moment, a very crisp, slightly hurried, but very steady footsteps came, the tiger guarding the door, suddenly stood up, jumped back, a group of people looked up, from a distance to see a gentle manner, extremely beautiful but not eye-catching young woman walked out slowly, the fierce tiger like a supple kitten close to her legs, until the old lady walked forward.

Xiao Lou turned his gaze and saw the young woman's beautiful appearance, a gentle and slightly shy smile, but he felt slightly uncomfortable, after all, this is his daughter-in-law who is married to his own fingertips, but he has been married for many years, and today is the first time he has seen it, it is this girl who can almost be said to be a stranger to replace herself as an old man and take care of her mother so properly, and he is an unfilial son......

"Daughter-in-law, Brother Xiaolou is back, he is back alive, I, my daughter-in-law will never lose it now!"

Xiao Lou was choked again, coughing non-stop, stunned to look at the mother who was full of joy and tightly holding his daughter-in-law's arm, crying and laughing, making trouble for a long time, the only use of his son is to keep his daughter-in-law!

Ding Feng, who had been standing behind, and the old man in green shirt glanced at each other, and they both smiled bitterly, hey!
