Chapter 191: The Feeling of Returning Home
Xu Wenqiang on the side had a smile on his face, he didn't have much affection for Xu Sanlang, he was not as sad as Xu Dalang, but looking at Xu Sanlang, who was very different from before, he was really happy in his heart, and muttered in his mouth, "I really didn't expect that this kid is really good." ”
Xu Dalang took a big stride and walked quickly to Xu Sanlang's side, the two tall men hugged each other excitedly, Xu Dalang hugged Xu Sanlang, and reached out to give Xu Sanlang a punch in the back, and said in a hoarse voice, "Stinky boy, I still know to come back." ”
Xu Sanlang also called "big brother" in a hoarse voice, the only person who gave him warm family affection when he was in the Xu family.
The people of Lihua Village finally saw Cheng Xi's man, the young men were disappointed and jealous, it turned out that the goddess in their minds really had a man, and he was such an excellent man, and the young girls were starry, and sighed in their hearts, what a handsome young man, but he was more handsome than the original Mr. Zhao, but unfortunately, it was a man from the female owner of the orchard.
Looking at the two big men who were still hugging each other and reluctant to separate, Cheng Xi simply went over to Xu Wenqiang's side and said, "Uncle, you let the villagers disperse, it's not a matter to gather around this village." ”
This kind of thing, Xu Wenqiang came out happily, and said loudly to the people of Lihua Village who were talking about it around him, "My nephew, you have also seen it, everyone has dispersed, what should you do, what should you do, scattered, scattered." ”
The people of this pear flower village finally dispersed in a bustling manner, leaving only the Xu family and Aunt Cui and others in the orchard.
The hundred-year-old was still being pulled by Aunt Cui, and when she saw Cheng Xi coming, she threw herself into Cheng Xi's arms, only raising her head from time to time to secretly glance at Xu Sanlang, Cheng Xi squatted down with a smile and asked, "What?" Don't know your cousin anymore? Why don't you go over and say hello to your cousin? ”
Bai Sui glanced at Xu Saburo secretly, then shook his head, and responded, "Don't." ”
Cheng Xi responded with a smile, "Stingy, are you still blaming your cousin for leaving us?" Isn't he back? ”
Bai Sui snorted coldly, but he didn't want to step forward.
At this time, Xu Dalang and Xu Sanlang also hugged enough, and when they saw the child in Cheng Xi's arms, Xu Sanlang came over to Cheng Xi's side, reached out and touched the hundred-year-old's head, and said, "The hundred-year-old has grown taller." ”
The hundred-year-old who was still awkward and reluctant to go over to say hello just now called "cousin" timidly at this time.
Cheng Xi was amused by the awkward appearance of the hundred-year-old, stood up, pulled the hundred-year-old, and introduced Xu Sanlang to other people that Xu Sanlang had not seen, and then the group went back to the orchard.
I didn't see Xu Dalang's daughter-in-law all the way, Xu Sanlang asked with some worry, "Big brother, where is my sister-in-law?" ”
Xu Dalang showed a warm smile on his face, and responded with a smile, "Your sister-in-law is pregnant and weak, so she didn't come out to pick you up." ”
Xu Sanlang was also very happy for Xu Dalang when he heard it, and responded, "Congratulations, big brother." ”
As soon as they went back to the orchard, Aunt Cui and Xu Lan of the Wu family went to the kitchen to prepare dinner, leaving Xu Sanlang and others in the hall, Xu Wenqiang was the first to ask, "Xi girl, did Xu Wenyu's brute do anything to you?" ”
Cheng Xi responded with a smile, "No, but he suffered a lot of crimes, he was caught as a hostage by me and Ah Wu, and I stabbed him, and the food prepared by his subordinates with poison was also eaten by himself, and he couldn't die, and he estimated that he would have to lie in bed for a few more months." ”
Xu Wenqiang, who had already had a deep hatred for Xu Wenyu, heard Cheng Xi's words at this time, felt very relieved, and replied, "Good job, this kind of brute, lying down for a few months has cheapened him, but he is the governor of Yuncheng in the end, can he let you go like this?" ”
This Cheng Xi had already thought of his words, and said, "It is true that he is the governor of Yuncheng, but there are always officials who are older than him, and it just so happens that San Lang was familiar with the Zhao family outside before, and that is the person who spoke in the capital, Xu Wenyu didn't dare to offend easily, of course, he could only let us go obediently." ”
Only at this time, Cheng Xi didn't know that Xu Wenyu was still asking about Xu Sanlang's news.
Xu Wenyu sat in a wheelchair, and his right-hand man Hu Yan stood in front and reported that he had found out the situation, "My lord, when your nephew left Anyang County, it was almost the same as when Jiangnan Shizi left the capital and returned to Jiangnan, and Jiangnan Shizi appeared in different places at the same time, and he killed Murong and the thief several times by surprise, and his subordinates felt that your nephew must have been a stand-in for Jiangnan Shizi before he got into a relationship with the Zhao family, and the Zhao family was so polite to your nephew, it should also give Jiangnan Shizi a little thin face." ”
Xu Wenyu's face was gloomy, and he continued to ask, "Now, where did he go?" ”
Hu Yan responded, "Now it should be that he has returned to the countryside with his wife and that woman, and his subordinates have seen that they have only taken three people out of the city." ”
Xu Wenyu replied coldly, "Now that the Murong clan has been overthrown, I'm afraid that his stand-in is useless, this son of the Zhao family will eventually go back to the capital, and there is a chance to clean them up." ”
Hu Yan responded, "My lord is wise, when the son of the Zhao family leaves, he will definitely be able to repay the shame." ”
Xu Wenyu said with satisfaction, "I have already written you a letter of recommendation, no surprise, the position of this Anyang County Commander should be yours, and you should be ready to take office earlier." ”
Hu Yan looked happy, knelt down and thanked him, "Thank you, sir." ”
In the orchard of Lihua Village, Xu Sanlang changed his usual cold and hard face, and his lips and feet rose all night, such a warm picture made him deeply appreciate the taste of family reunion, and even Xu Wenqiang, the uncle who didn't like it at all, was a lot pleasing to the eye at this time.
A large group of people sat in the hall, talking and laughing at several tables in the siege, eating dinner happily until late, and everyone was willing to disperse.
Aunt Cui was happy at this time, and while preparing toiletries for the two of them, she muttered in her mouth, "Madame knows that the master is coming back, and this small building has almost been renovated up and down, so I am afraid that the master will come back and live uncomfortably, look at this washing shelf, as well as these wooden basins and towels, they are all new, and the master can marry such a lovely person as Madame, it is really blessed." ”
Speaking of which, he praised Cheng Xi again, Cheng Xi was a little embarrassed to be praised by Aunt Cui, and said, "Aunt Cui, if I am praised by you again, I will float to the sky." ”
Aunt Cui replied with a smile, "Okay, don't bother you little two, after the hot water is boiled in a while, I will ask Brother Ping and Xiong Da to send them to you, you can wash well, go to bad luck, and then have a good rest." ”
Cheng Xi responded with a smile, "Thank you, Aunt Cui, and then watched Aunt Cui turn around and leave." ”
When Aunt Cui left, Cheng Xi pulled Xu Sanlang to the balcony outside the small building, and said, "It's moonlight tonight, I'll take you to see how beautiful the scenery outside the balcony of the small building is." ”
While saying that, Cheng Xi had already dragged Xu Sanlang to the balcony of the small building, looking at the faint orchard under the moonlight outside, Cheng Xi said, "It looks more beautiful during the day, especially in the flowering season, looking down on this balcony, the scenery is simply a must." ”
Xu Sanlang reached out and hugged Cheng Xi in front of him, let Cheng Xi lean his back against his chest, and sighed, "It's good." ”
Cheng Xi lightly: "Huh? After a while, I heard Xu Saburo continue, "It's good to have you by your side." ”
Cheng Xi had a happy and satisfied smile on his face, reached out and grabbed Xu Sanlang's hand holding him, and responded softly, "Me too." ”
The two of them hugged each other like this, quietly looking at the moonlit scenery outside, and after a while, Xu Saburo spoke, "Where did Aunt Cui'er's family come from?" ”
Cheng Xi told the origin of Aunt Cui'er's family, and Xu Sanlang responded, "It's a good family." ”
Cheng Xi responded, "Yes, fortunately there has been Aunt Cui in the past few years, and after a long time, I have treated them as family, but they are still slaves, I plan to return the deed of sale of their family to them, so that they can restore their good heritage, what do you think?" ”
Xu Saburo responded, "Whatever you want." ”
This is the sound of footsteps downstairs, Xu Sanlang hurriedly let go of Cheng Xi, and soon Brother Ping and Xiong Er Ah Yi sent hot water, Xu Sanlang looked at Ah Yi's thief eyebrows when he left, and said helplessly, "Ah Yi was taken by Ah Wen, this Ah Wen used to be honest, how did it become like this now?" ”
Cheng Xi pursed his lips and said dissatisfiedly, "What's the matter, isn't it good?" It's better than being like a stake like you, and can't hold back three sentences for a long time. ”
The corners of Xu Sanlang's eyes twitched, and he pushed Cheng Xi over to the bathroom, "You go wash first, I'll find clothes for you." ”
Cheng Xi rinsed his mouth and washed his face first, and waited for Xu Sanlang to send his clothes over, before he dared to take off his clothes and take a shower, but he was a little apprehensive in his heart, this is all back, what if Xu Sanlang wants to have a round room with him? Do you follow or not? Although she also plans to be married with Xu Saburo in the future, is she going to have a round house now?
was full of confusion, only to hear Xu Sanlang's voice outside, "Xi'er, haven't washed it yet?" ”
Cheng Xi got up slowly, dried his body and put on his clothes, and opened the door while wiping his hair.
Xu Sanlang looked at Cheng Xi wearing a thin white undershirt, his face flushed from hot water and appeared in front of him, his eyes flashed, and he said, "Remember to dry your hair." ”
After speaking, Xu Saburo entered the bathroom by mistake, and then closed it.
Cheng Xi sat in the room, listening to the sound of water coming from next door, absentmindedly wiping his hair, his face was nervous, and he was still entangled in his heart for a while How to face Xu Sanlang? If Xu Saburo asks for something, is he from or not?
Time gradually disappeared in Cheng Xi's entanglement, and it seemed that it didn't take long for the door to close next door, and then the door was pushed open and closed again.
Xu Sanlang saw Cheng Xi who was still sitting at the table, frowned slightly, and asked, "Why are you still sitting here?" It's cold at night, be careful of the cold. ”
Cheng Xi's face was slightly red, he sped up the action of wiping his hair in his hand, and answered, "My hair hasn't dried yet." ”
Xu Sanlang came to Cheng Xi's side, took the handkerchief in Cheng Xi's hand, and gently wiped Cheng Xi's hair, neither of them spoke, and the room fell silent for a while, only Xu Sanlang wiped Cheng Xi's hair is rustling.
After a while, Xu Sanlang stopped his movements and said in a hoarse voice, "Okay, let's go to sleep." ”
After saying that, Xu Sanlang began to wipe his slightly wet hair, Cheng Xi stood up, secretly glanced at Xu Sanlang, and then went to the bedside by himself, quickly climbed onto the bed, covered the quilt, and lay inside in a proper manner.
With his eyes closed, his heart seemed to be beating a drum, as if he was about to jump out of his chest, and his body was also a little hot, Cheng Xi simply kicked the quilt and listened carefully to Xu Sanlang's movements.
After a while, the footsteps began to approach her, the bed next to her collapsed, and a familiar breath came, and Cheng Xi knew that it was Xu Sanlang lying beside him.
Cheng Xi lay motionless, not daring to breathe, and after lying for a while, he felt that there was no movement around him, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Only Cheng Xi just breathed a sigh of relief, and he was suddenly fished out by Xu Sanlang with one hand, hugged tightly in his arms, and then Xu Sanlang's low and hoarse voice came from the silent night, "Xi'er? ”
Cheng Xi motionless let Xu Saburo hold him, and it took a while to find his voice and respond softly, "Huh? ”
just promised for a while, but didn't hear Xu Sanlang's voice again, and when Cheng Xi thought that Xu Sanlang would not speak again, Xu Sanlang spoke up again, "Sleep." ”
