Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Son Visits
Collection of 500 additions
Exquisite and ornate carriages drove one after another on the dusty country roads, and only a short stubble remained in the fields that had been harvested, and occasionally some industrious farmers were driving their oxen to turn over the wheat stubble into the soil, and the larger ones were all raked out and smashed and leveled.
Nangong Xiao sat in the carriage and staggered, holding the window tightly with one hand, and finally couldn't help it: "Stop!" Prepare a horse for me! β
On this potholed and bumpy road, riding in a carriage is a kind of torment, and it is like shaking people apart from the rack, and it is better to ride a horse!
Zuo Zhan sat on a black horse, his back was straight, and he couldn't help but laugh when he heard Nangong Xiao's voice: "Don't you hate that the sun will tan your skin?" Why are you not afraid again? β
Nangong Xiao got out of the carriage and jumped on the horse, and glanced at Zuo Zhan: "It's not like I haven't been sunburned when I fought in the northern Xinjiang, isn't this still good?" This son is born not to tan, I just said that, the carriage is actually because there is too much dust on the road. β
"What do you want to do in the countryside?" Zuo Zhan shook his head, his legs clamped the horse's belly, and the horse immediately rushed forward: "I'll take a step first, and you can shake it slowly." β
"Hey, hey, I'm here to see my daughter-in-law, why are you in such a hurry?" Nangong Xiao immediately rode his horse to chase after him, and his mouth was not idle: "I said that your kid won't be a spring heartbeat, right?" Friends' wives can't be bullied, don't move the grass next to the nest! β
Zuo Zhan wanted to turn around and whip him, but when he saw the man's hippie smiling face, he was immediately deflated again, and turned his head: "You still came with Yang Jinzhi, are you going to take her in or what?" Take a woman to see your fiancΓ©e, I think you just don't plan to marry Miss Mo. β
Nangong Xiao touched his nose and didn't deny it, women, it's not the same who to marry, there's no need to quarrel every day with parents who are making trouble for a daughter-in-law, right?
When I arrived at Zhuangzi, I learned that the two brothers and sisters of the Mo family were not there, and it was said that they went to the field to direct farming. Turning his head to Shangnangong Xiao's interested eyes, the mind that originally planned to find the past immediately changed: "Since this is the case, then let's wait for a while, Miss Yang has been in the carriage for such a long time, and she is probably tired, so let's rest for a while." β
Yang Jinzhi was indeed about to be torn apart by the carriage, especially when the two men rode away first, the carriage followed behind for a while, and it was even more bumpy, and now he felt numb and soft when he stepped on the ground, and he couldn't stand steadily.
Listening to Zuo Zhan's words, Yang Jinzhi glanced at him very gratefully, and then looked at Nangong Xiao with resentful eyes, although this person took himself out to play as his father wanted, but he ended up running to this kind of rural place, dirty and messy, what's the good? I was still tired of staying in the Houmen compound and came out to have fun.
Zuo Zhan has been here, everyone in the Zhuangzi knows him, someone has already come to serve, Yang Jinzhi was taken to rest by a few maids, and her handsome and affectionate sweetheart did not respond to her grudges.
"Let's go, call someone to lead the way, let's see." Nangong Xiao waved his fan with great interest and blocked his head: "This big sun is really unbearable, that place is not far from here?" β
The leader is the new chief manager of Zhuangzi, Zheng Wang'er succeeded him after the accident, called Zhao Mingjue, he explained the affairs of Zhuangzi and personally led the two people out: "It's not far, it's not far, it's going to be there in a while, what is the name of the eldest young master, the test field?" I don't know where I got the novel seeds, so I want to try planting them. β
Novelty seeds? Nangong Xiao suddenly remembered something and patted his head: "Hey, by the way, someone will bring the pocket I brought, be careful, that's my gift." β
Mo Youran bent over and scattered seeds there very seriously with his trouser legs, followed by a group of children giggling and burying the seeds with their feet, doing very energetically.
Dong Fence actually walked in front of an old ox to plow the ground, He Taisheng skillfully supported the plow, and a soil ditch with an even depth behind it was ploughed out, but because the person in front of the cow was really not very professional, the ditch drawn out of this row did not look so straight.
Zuo Zhan looked at the two brothers and sisters with some surprise, and actually did it himself, and couldn't help grinning, yes, it's not the kind of person who can just say that he can't do it, and he does it quite like that.
Danzhu and Ink are useless, the two of them stood on the ground empty-handed in a daze, and at a glance saw that Steward Zhao on Zhuangzi led the two people over, and at first glance, it seemed that Lord Zuo was coming, and the two of them just showed a smile on their faces and saw clearly the person behind them, that person, why is it so similar, Nangong Xiao?
It's not like, that's just it!
The two of them looked at each other, both a little dumbfounded, why did he get here? My own lady was still in the ground, and the ink suddenly rushed into the ground, and the ground that had just been prepared was very soft, and she stepped on a deep footprint.
Danzhu was stunned for a moment, bit his lip, and greeted him hard: "Lord Zuo, why are you here?" This is ......"
"Oh, just call him Nangong Gongzi, you young master, is this planning to take farming as the main job?" Zuo Zhan didn't say a few words to Dan Zhu, and he didn't care that the soil in the field stained his shoes, so he followed in without hesitation, and he stepped on the footprints of ink, so it didn't seem like a matter to step on a few footprints on the flat land.
Ink and wash trotted to the front of the East Fence, and the frightened East Fence hand trembled, and stabilized his mind: "Ink, what are you doing?" Surprise me! He gave her an angry look.
"Miss, Nangong Xiao is here!" Ink was so anxious that he stomped his feet, and the small embroidered shoes were filled with soil, and when he lifted his feet and stomped his feet, the soil was raised. "What do you say? The people have fallen to the ground. β
Nangong Xiao? Dongli was shocked at first, but he immediately relaxed, and when he came, he came, Nangong Xiao was not a wolf. Besides, there are so many people, especially the brother who protects the short, and Nangong Xiao has nothing to be afraid of.
"Come on, come on, legs grow on him, where can we care about him?" Dong Liang led the ox to continue walking, people love not to come, they always have to continue to live: "I said you, don't be scared like anything when you see him, I don't know what happened to you in his house, but people have to look forward, right?" You've grown up, and he may not be able to recognize you, so what are you afraid of? β
"You don't know, you don't know that scene." Ink didn't know what he remembered, and he was trembling all over.
Mo Youran didn't hear what they said behind him, so he raised his head and took a look: "Ink, why are you running here when you don't stay on the ground?" Look at your feet full of dirt, and you don't know how to tie up your trouser legs. β
Shui Mo glanced at the young master, the other party smiled with a mouthful of white teeth shiny, two small dimples on his cheeks, which looked very good-looking, and he couldn't help but feel in a trance for a moment, his face suddenly turned red, and he suddenly felt that today's sun seemed to be extraordinarily hot.
Zuo Zhan had already walked up to him and patted Mo Youran on the shoulder: "Okay, I'm really about to become a farmer." I mean, do you know how to farm? Don't be pretending, right? Don't delay the land, people don't say that people are wrong for a while, and people are wrong for a year, don't be able to get anything back when you toss around. β
"You're just a crow's mouth, you don't have a good word to meet." Mo Youran rolled his eyes and continued to seed: "It's not good to see you, what kind of case is it this time?" Did the Han family catch it? β
Zuo Zhan's smile narrowed slightly, those two people still have no news, and they haven't found any trace of them after the sea fishing documents have been sent for so long, I don't know whether to say that they can really hide, or to wonder if they have an accident.
Zuo Zhan's eyes glanced at the seeds that Mo Youran had packed in the small wooden barrel, and was stunned for a moment: "This is the Red Yan Fruit?" Are you really going to plant this? And so many at once! β
Mo Youran didn't raise his head: "Yes, of course you have to plant, others say that this thing is poisonous, Dong Liang can say it, that's all a misunderstanding, in fact, this thing is not only not poisonous, but it tastes very good, it is a very good vegetable." Overseas foreigners have known about it for a long time, and it is still recorded in the book. In this case, if you don't plant white, you don't plant. β
What did Dong Li say? Zuo Zhan's dark eyes raised and glanced at the slender figure holding the cow in front of him, and the corners of his mouth hooked: "You trust her very much, you believe everything she says." β
"My sister is the best in the world." Mo Youran replied very proudly.
Really, Zuo Zhan shook his head and smiled, turned his head to look at the ground, a gorgeously dressed person was still standing there looking at it, and coughed: "Nangong Shizi is on the ground, it turns out that your family has a marriage contract with the Nangong family, but I don't know." β
Nangong Xiao is here? Mo Youran's body stiffened for a moment, then he suddenly threw the seeds in his hand back into the bucket and stood up straight and looked over, the corners of his mouth were tightly pursed, and his eyes looked complicated.
Zuo Zhan couldn't figure out what was going on between the two families, saying that it was a family of relatives, but the relationship was a little stiff, saying that the relationship was not good, Zhenbei Hou seemed to care about the Mo family very much, and the whole thing was a mess.
Nangong Xiao stood there shaking his fan, there were two leafy poplar trees growing on the ground, and the shade was very good, but it was easy to have some caterpillars and other things, and he subconsciously moved a little away from the tree.
Zhao Mingjue also had a long-term worker there to accompany him, and the two of them really didn't know what to say to a richly dressed nobleman, so they had to be silent, and the three of them fell into a strange silence, and there were cicadas singing loudly in the trees.
Not long after Zuo Zhan passed, a few people who were busy in the field stopped, and after a while, a few people walked over to this side, and the boys who helped scattered and ran to the side to play.
