"For a while, I'm afraid that he will come to our house, my father has raised him for several years and taught him for several years, so I want to come to see him. [.] I just wonder if my aunt will take the opportunity to follow? Ziqing asked.

Shen listened to Ziqing's words and looked at Zeng Ruixiang, Zeng Ruixiang said: "If he wants to come over by himself, I will see him, if he comes with your aunt, it is okay not to see him." It's impossible for your aunt not to talk about these things, it's easy for her son to have a chance and have money to live by, and she can't shake the ugly things of the past and make a face? It depends on what Simao thinks, if he is sensible, he naturally knows what to do. ”

Ziqing also meant this when she heard it, it is estimated that the old man will be in good spirits because of Simao's return? After all, Simao is now all the hope of Chunyu's family.

Ziqing sat with Shen and Zeng Ruixiang for a while, and didn't see Simao come to the door, but saw Lin Kangping come to pick him up, Ziqing got up disappointed, and was about to go out, when the doorbell rang, Ziqing pulled Lin Kangping and said, "Let's go see who is coming." ”

Lin Kangping looked at Ziqing and said, "Who is coming?" How do I think you're a little weird? ”

"I heard that my aunt's Simao has come home, I want to see, what is he like now? Walk. Ziqing pushed Lin Kangping out.

Ziqing looked through the small window on the door, and there was really a tall man wearing a royal blue long thin cotton jacket standing outside, his hair pinned with a hosta, and a small gift box in his hand.

Simao saw Ziqing from the window, and greeted with a smile: "Hello cousin, cousin is still so young." ”

Ziqing opened the door. Chunyu and his family really didn't come with him, Simao said hello to Lin Kangping, and followed Ziqing into the main hall and saw Zeng Ruixiang and Shen. Hurriedly knelt down, kowtowed three times, and said, "Second uncle." Second uncle, Simao has come to see you, all these years outside, I don't think about my second uncle all the time, Simao didn't dare to forget, Simao went out for something, and I always wanted to go home one day with dignity. [.] kowtow to his uncle a few times, saying that Simao did not live up to his uncle's teachings. ”

Zeng Ruixiang was also a little sad when he heard this, and wanted to help Simao up, but Simao kowtowed three heads respectfully and said, "These three heads." It's on behalf of my father and mother, I don't dare to say that I ask my uncle and aunt for forgiveness, I don't blame the past, just for the harm to my uncle's family over the years, Simao said sorry for them, Simao didn't have any other ideas, just wanted to sincerely admit his mistake for them. ”

Zeng Ruixiang listened and said, "Get up, child." Don't talk about those things. Tell your uncle about it. What have you been doing in the past few years? Suffered a lot? Where did you stay? Did you get married? Still not leaving? What are your plans for the future? ”

Zeng Ruixiang asked a series of questions, and it could be seen that he still cared a little about Simao, and he didn't beat Chunyu's family to death with a stick.

Simao didn't stand up when he heard this, but hugged Zeng Ruixiang's leg and cried, and Shen couldn't persuade him when he saw it. Simao cried for a while, didn't pick up Zeng Ruixiang's handkerchief, pulled out his own, wiped away his tears, calmed down, and said, "Didn't scare my uncle and aunt?" Over the years, I have been running outside, running all over the world, and I rarely heard such heartwarming words, as soon as I was excited, I couldn't help it, thank you uncle for worrying. ”

Simao briefly talked about his experience, when he left home, there was no goal, moved things in Anzhou Wharf for a few days, took a boat to Yuecheng, in Yuecheng to find apprentices to do no one dared to receive, still in the wharf to carry things, about two or three months, there is a warehouse owner to see that he is still honest, he hired him and others to look at the warehouse, get a few months of wages, Simao is also a lively, see that the wharf has something novel little things, so he bought it, accumulated and waited for vacation to sell in the city, so a year passedand had more than ten taels of silver in his hand.

Two years later, I heard others say that these things should go to the north and be sold at a higher price, so they blocked all their savings, less than a hundred taels of silver, took things to Hangzhou, things got rid of them, bought cloth from Hangzhou, followed other people's convoys, went to the northwest, arrived in Lanzhou, unloaded the cloth from Lanzhou, made a lot of money, poured something from Lanzhou and wanted to go to the northeast, wanted to sell animal fur in the northeast, but was robbed of most of the property on the way back. [~]

Fortunately, he didn't lose his life, and went home all the way, passing through Hangzhou, Simao still chose Hangzhou, stayed in Hangzhou, and did it for another two years.

"I think that I am getting older day by day, and I haven't come back for so many years, and my father and mother don't know what? My grandparents are afraid that they will be old and will not go home again, but I am afraid that if there is anything in the future, I will be ashamed of the love of my grandparents over the years. Why don't you come home, marry a wife, stay in Anzhou City and open a small shop, or think about anything else, I didn't think about it for a while. Simao sighed.

Ziqing was amazed when he heard it, he didn't expect that over the years, he had actually made a big circle in this windy country, and the hardships were naturally not something that Ziqing could understand.

"It's good to come back, it's good to come back, and do your business well." It's just that this is a kiss, Zeng Ruixiang is really hard to speak, with the current reputation of the Yan family, there is really no family matter, Wumao is also ten ** this year, and no one cares about it so far.

Simao sat down for a while, was about to say goodbye, and before leaving, he took out the box and said: "Uncle, uncle, this is a ginseng I specially bought for you from the Northeast, fortunately, it was not robbed, and it was kept to replenish my body." ”

"You kid, it's a very expensive thing, you are not rich now, you still sell it, and you can exchange it for some silver taels." Shen excused himself.

"Uncle, this is a little bit of my heart, my uncle has taught me all these years, and I can't repay it, but I always remember it in my heart. My aunt is just going to keep it, and I originally prepared it for you, and it's only fifty years old, and I can't afford it if it's too good. ”

Shen couldn't say anything after hearing it, looked at Zeng Ruixiang, Zeng Ruixiang said: "Since that's the case, take it." In the future, when I have time, I often come to sit. ”

Simao responded respectfully, and when he left, he looked at the plaque on the door of the courtyard and said: "Cousin Zixi is really amazing, I think we were still studying in the school together, and it was only a few years that we earned such a great glory for my uncle's family, which is really envious." When I was out and about, I occasionally wondered, what would it be like if I had been born at my uncle's house? I must be able to be like Zixi's cousin, a good student to study and be a man. It's a pity that there are no ifs in life, and parents can't choose. Simao sighed.

"Although parents can't choose, you can choose the path you want to take, at least, you are doing very well so far." Ziqing said.

Simao listened to Ziqing's words, thought for a while, and said, "Thank you cousin for mentioning it." It's me who is stubborn. ”

Simao smiled and waved goodbye. Zeng Ruixiang said: "There is finally a sensible person, one day in the future, Chunyu will have to rely on Simao to support the elderly, nothing else, it can't be trusted, that Ermao, I don't know how to take the right path, I'm afraid, and when she cries, don't look at how much silver there is now, who knows how?" ”

Ziqing didn't talk about Qiuyu's family anymore, and I really don't know what news the family has had recently.

Shen was also not interested in these, and said to Ziqing: "I'm going to go to the Xia family and the Fu family, Mrs. Fu sent posts several times, but I didn't go, and besides, since I went out once, I went to see Yu'er, and your third uncle's house, you come to help me pick and choose, what is appropriate?" ”

Ziqing looked at Lin Kangping, Lin Kangping said: "Mother, it's better to pick two better brocades, and, Fu Jiana, I caught an old turtle from the village, Mrs. Fu is old, she likes it, and there is nowhere to buy it with silver." ”

Shen Shi listened and asked, "Why don't you go with me?" ”

"Mother, how can I go out like this? Later. ”

Shen Shi looked at Ziqing and said with a smile: "I'm also old and confused." ”

Ziqing smiled when she heard this, and came out of the main courtyard, Ziqing was just about to turn around to see Yang, but Yang came out with the child in her arms and said with a smile: "Is my sister coming to see me?" ”

"I wanted to see Xiao Yongqin, but I didn't expect you to bring it out."

"My mother said, when the weather is good, I will take it out to bask in the sun, and I am thinking about talking to my mother and sister." Yang laughed.

Ziqing looked at Lin Kangping, and Yang hurriedly said, "Sister has come back in advance." I'm not serious. I just wanted to ask you, I heard that my mother was going to the Fu family and the Xia family, and I thought that the two of them also gave Yongqin a gift. I wondered if I would ask my mother to give me a gift back, but I didn't know what was appropriate, so I wanted to ask my sister. The Xia family is okay to say, and the little sister will return one when she is born, but the Fu family, I am really a little embarrassed. ”

Ziqing listened and looked at the Yang family, to be honest, at present, Zishou's conditions are the worst among several people, but it is rare that the Yang family has a good temperament, and there is no intention of comparison at all, contentment, gratitude. From this point of view, Zishou still has some vision. Otherwise, if you have to find someone who loves to compare, Zishou will have to be separated from a few brothers sooner or later.

"Brother and sister, the Fu family gave you a gift, and her own mother went to give you some gifts, and she was also for your mother. I just came from my mother's place, and my mother has already made some things, so don't worry about it. When Xiaosi comes back, you don't have to make up a gift, in fact, you don't have to make it up, they didn't catch up with Yongqin when he was born, and what you sent here and there is not enough trouble. Ziqing persuaded.

"Is that okay?" Yang asked in a low voice.

"Of course." Ziqing replied affirmatively.

Yang took the child and went to Shen.

The next day it was dark, Shen came back from Anzhou, Ziqing had just finished eating, Shen sat with him, and said: "I heard something today, saying that there is someone in Anzhou City who has lost a child, you say, how many years can it be better?" How can there be such a crutch who has lost his conscience? I was taken aback when I heard this, and hurriedly went to your second sister-in-law to tell you a few words. ”

Lin Kangping listened and asked, "Where did my mother hear about it?" (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (.) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support, is my biggest motivation. )
