"My relative's house is a bit far away." In the car, Alimujiang explained, "It may take a while to drive." ”

"It's okay, we have a lot of time anyway." Zhu Yu is really not in a hurry. This trip is to hunt for treasure by himself, and no one else is chasing his ass and asking to hurry, so Zhu Yu is naturally not in a hurry.

Ali Mujiang was relieved when he heard it. He pointed to the road, Ran Jie drove in front, Qin Fei drove behind, and two hours later, he arrived in another town.

"Let's go, I'll take you to feel the pure Kazakh style." When he arrived here, Alimujiang's expression suddenly became soaring, pointing to the shops and buildings on both sides and enthusiastically introducing them.

Zhu Yu listened with a smile, he could understand Ali Mujiang's mood at this time.

Since he hired Ali Mujiang as a translator, he has always been in a weak position, whether he encounters robbers or digs ruins, he follows Zhu Yu and them.

Whether it is to pick up a life or a fortune, Alimujiang is in a passive position.

This is really a bit of a suffocating panic for a young man.

Of course, there is also the meaning of thanks.

After receiving the benefits of others in vain, Ali Mujiang has always wanted to repay it in his heart.

But obviously these people are not short of money, and they are all from the northwest, and the things he can find are not rare for others. That's why he thought of his relatives on his side.

"Our family's tribe, part of the western frontier, Zhaosu, and part of it is here."

"In Zhaosu?" Zhu Yu was a little surprised, "We went to Zhaosu before we came. By the way, when we went by, we also saw a blue flag hanging in the village, what is that? ”

"That's a nobleman from the tribe or," Ali Mujiang didn't expect Zhu Yu and they had also been to Zhaosu, a little surprised, and then explained, "That's why they are qualified to hang the flag." Of course, we don't pay attention to this now, but there are always old people who still care. ”

There are indeed people who care a lot, after all, even the sky pattern has been spoken.

"This is it." Alimujiang pointed to a blue-walled courtyard and said.

The yard is quite large, and it is early summer, and the mulberry trees and flowers on both sides of the gate grow beautifully.

The car stopped at the door, Alimujiang got out of the car with people, and someone inside walked out.

An old lady of the Kazakh nationality wearing a headscarf, when she saw Alimujiang, she first squinted her eyes for a moment, and then grinned.

Ali Mujiang stepped forward with a smile, bent down and hugged the old lady, and then pointed at Zhu Yu and said a string of words, the old lady stretched out her hands and gestured, Zhu Yu understood that it was a welcome.

Then two Kazakh girls of fifteen or sixteen years old came out of the courtyard, looking at the guests curiously.

After seeing Alimujiang, the curiosity on the faces of the two girls immediately turned into happiness, and they stepped forward to pull Alimujiang and chatted.

Zhu Yu guessed that Alimujiang should have come here often, and it could be seen that the family was familiar with him.

Ali Mujiang said a few words to the two girls, then turned his head and said to Zhu Yu with a smile:

"This one is my aunt and grandmother, and these two are my sisters. Their mom and dad are not at home...... Come back at noon, go, come in! ”

Zhu Yu and the others greeted the old lady with a smile, smiled at the two girls, and followed Alimujiang into the courtyard. The two girls were a little shy, laughing and running into the yard with their heads down.

The yard is quite big and very clean. It's a bit like a farmhouse in Western Xinjiang, with vegetables growing in front, grape sheds in front of the house, and a row of small houses against the wall on the side, which should be kitchens and the like.

The floor was paved with tiles, and the foundation of the house was quite high, but Alimujiang did not let them into the house, and sat down in front of the wooden bed under the grape trellis.

At this time, the vines on the trellis are already full of leaves, and occasionally the sun shines through the gaps in the leaves, and the cool breeze is very comfortable.

There is an iron water tank next to the grape trellis, a wash basin underneath, and towels hanging from the wire next to it.

Without Ali Mujiang's introduction, Zhu Yu and Ran Jie came over to wash their hands, while Qin Fei and Cao Dalong did the same.

After they finished washing their hands, the old lady and a woman in her thirties wearing a headscarf came over with a pot and a bowl, and Zhu Yu knew that this was going to let a few of them drink milk tea first.

Two girls followed from behind, each carrying two flat plates with four glass bowls containing dried fruits such as almonds, dried apricots, and raisins, as well as snacks such as sweets.

The two of them put down their plates, set things up on the long wooden table next to the wooden bed, and entered the room shyly, Zhu Yu could still hear their laughter.

"This is my aunt," Ali Mujiang introduced the woman in her thirties, and said a few words to the woman, who smiled shyly at Zhu Yu and didn't speak.

The woman first rinsed the bowl with water, then poured milk into the bowl, scooped a spoonful of milk skin, and finally added brick tea with boiling water through the tea drain, and handed it to Zhu Yu with both hands.

Zhu Yu hurriedly pressed his chest with his left hand and took it with his right hand and put it on the table.

The other three did the same.

The old lady handed a bowl to Ali Mujiang's aunt, watched Zhu Yu's movements, and smiled.

When the two little girls came out again, the flat plate in their hands was naan and honey, cream, ghee and the like in a small bowl.

Alimujiang took a sip of the milk tea bowl and said with a smile: "Let's pad first, and my aunt will make delicious food for a while." ”

This sentence is delicious, Zhu Yu can say it, Cao Dalong is full of expectations.

The milk tea was poured, Alimujiang's aunt and aunt went into the house to work, and the two little girls came out of the house and sat in the position of pouring milk tea, to see whose tea bowl was empty, so they added some, and at the same time whispered some things about Alimujiang.

Alimujiang said a lot, these two girls are quite curious, and the questions are one after another.

Zhu Yu and the others were a little curious, Ali Mujiang saw their expressions, and took the time to explain in a low voice:

"They asked me about the current situation in Western Xinjiang, and they were very curious about it. Actually, I think that many of our people were quite curious about this side in the past, but in the past two years, to be honest, it has really not attracted much. ”

As he spoke, he said a few more words to the two girls, who had frustrated expressions on their faces.

"I told them that it is really not easy to get Chinese nationality."

This Zhu Yu knows. It's easy to get out, so you can basically get out with a little money, but if you want to come back, it's really hard. And it is not easy to become a naturalized country.

Zhu Yu didn't talk much about such a thing, drinking milk tea, feeling quite comfortable.

Born in the Northwest, he drank it when he was a child, so he was still used to this - of course, with that plate of milk gnocchi on the table, he was so grateful that he couldn't get used to it.

Before the meal was ready, Alimujiang's two cousins returned.

One of his two cousins is married, named Takar, the father of two girls, and the family has hundreds of acres of land, a dozen cows, and some sheep.

The other, Tang Boli, is currently single, in his thirties, and works as a worker in a processing factory in the town.

Tahar and Tang Boli were very happy to see Alimujiang, stepped forward to hug him, and talked with a smile for a while.

Ali Mujiang introduced Zhu Yu and a few people to the two uncles, and they smiled and said a few words, which should be a sign of welcome, but Zhu Yu and they didn't understand.

But it didn't stop them from sitting together and chatting and bragging.

Through Ali Mujiang's translation, Zhu Yu knew that they were actually doing well here. There was also communication on both sides. They will go over to see Alimujiang's family every year, and Alimujiang's family will also come here to see this aunt.

Although they were amazed by the development of the western Xinjiang side of China, they did not think of moving there, after all, for them, this is their homeland.

Zhu Yu seemed to inadvertently ask about the ruins of the ancient city in the depths of the grassland.

Takar didn't know, but Mr. Tang said he had heard people talk about it when the workers in his factory were chatting together. It is also said that there have been missing people there, and legend has it that there are even more ancient ruins in the deeper part of the grassland.

Zhu Yu and Ran Jie glanced at each other and didn't speak.

It seems that the goal of their trip is not unknown to anyone.

However, thinking that the ruins of the ancient city that were relatively close to the city had not been dug up much, Zhu Yu actually didn't worry much about the ultimate goal.

A large plate of finger meat, Kazakh potato chips, and a large plate of chicken were served, and Takar brought two bottles of liquor, put a glass in front of everyone, and everyone poured a glass.

Ran Jie whispered that he didn't drink, and Ali Mujiang said with a smile, pour it, and let it go if you don't drink.

He also whispered:

"It's a step forward now. In the past, there were only two cups, and everyone took turns to drink. ”

Zhu Yu remembered that when he was a child, he seemed to have seen a similar way of drinking in the commissary.

Takar said something that, in Alimujiang's translation, was:

"Guests are welcome to come to our home! I hope you eat, drink and have fun here, and I wish your families good health! ”

Since that's all said, let's drink the wine.

As soon as the wine is drunk, there is a lot of talk.

Although the language barrier is different, chickens and ducks can speak a lot.

At this moment, there was a shouting outside.

Zhu Yu turned his head to look over and found that there were many people outside the courtyard gate, some were looking at the car, and some were looking into the courtyard.

He woke up in his mind and felt that there might be a big problem this time!

Takar was a hospitable person, and persuaded the guests to drink more, and he drank a lot himself, and his face was red now, and when he saw the people at the gate of the courtyard, he didn't pay attention to what they said, and stood up and called for people to come in and eat and drink together.

The Kazakhs are hospitable, and when there are guests at home, if there are more of them, they often invite their neighbors to come and entertain them.

It's just that the people outside the hospital don't appreciate it and are still shouting there.

With this shout, Takar's face changed, and looking at Zhu Yu and their expressions was wrong.

Alimujiang is half a master, and he has drunk a lot, but he is still sober at this time, and he also heard the problem said by outsiders, and his brain was also shocked, and he hurriedly explained it to Takar quickly.

Takar's expression softened slightly, but that suspicion didn't completely disappear.

Alimujiang hurriedly gave Zhu Yu and said:

"The people outside recognized the car, and they now suspect us ......"

Takar and Tang Boli had already stood up at this time, and the women who were eating in the small kitchen also came out.

Zhu Yu and the others immediately stood up as well, which required them to give an explanation.

"What did you tell your uncle?"

Zhu Yu quickly asked Ali Mujiang.

"I said we picked up ......the car," Alimujiang whispered.

"Okay, now you tell your uncle that the place where we picked up the car is the winter nest, and that there is nothing burned down there, so we pick up the car."

Zhu Yu almost wanted to scold this Alimujiang, don't say that you picked it up, just say that the second-hand black car bought cheaply is better than the one you picked up! If this one lie is rounded, it will take many lies to make up for it.

Alimujiang hurriedly told Takal that Takar's expression was still not very good, but they had already walked to the gate of the courtyard at this time, Takar explained to those people outside, Zhu Yu looked at the expressions of those people and was suspicious, but he was not particularly worried.

It's just that I didn't expect that after a while, two policemen came.

The police in the town, this thing is a bit of a big deal!

Alimujiang also seemed to be worried about this problem, and as soon as the police came, he was a little panicked.

But thinking that Zhu Yu and the others had already sent those things away, Ali Mujiang was sure in his heart, anyway, there were no prohibited items in the car now, and he was not afraid of searching.

The police routinely inquired about it, looked at Zhu Yu's documents again, and found that there was no problem, and there were Takar and Tang Boli as guarantors, so they were not embarrassed by Zhu Yu.

However, after listening to Ali Mujiang explain the origin of their car, he asked Zhu Yu and them to take them to see the burned winter nest.

Ali Mujiang also understood that his explanation had caused trouble, and apologized to Zhu Yu and them in private.

At this point, Zhu Yu didn't say anything.

However, this matter does not require Zhu Yu and them to go, Ali Mujiang and Qin Fei went.

To Zhu Yu's surprise, many people in the town spontaneously drove their cars to follow. Although Takar did not go, Tang Boli did.

Zhu Yu and the others hastily finished their meal and rested in the courtyard.

Without Alimujiang, it was not convenient for them to speak, but the two girls quietly ran over and tried to chat with Zhu Yu and them in stammering Chinese, which made Zhu Yu a little surprised.

"Are you self-taught Chinese?"

"There are Chinese teachers in our school." One girl said, "We learned her words there." ”

"You want to go to Huaxia?"

"We want to...... Alimujiang's brother's house is there to ......," said another girl.

chatted stumblingly, and then heard the sound of the car, Zhu Yu estimated that Alimujiang and they were back.

Alimujiang and the police got out of the car, and a group of people were pulled down behind them, and then there were boiling cheers from the town!

Tang Boli rushed into the courtyard and said something loudly, and then Alimujiang entered the courtyard and said with a smile:

"It's okay. These robbers are also a scourge to them, and they have been trying to catch them, but they have never found a den......"

Zhu Yu saw Ran Jie pouting, but he didn't speak.

Ali Mujiang approached Zhu Yu and whispered:

"Fortunately, after we finished digging, we changed our clothes or something......

Zhu Yu smiled, he had thought of this before.

Otherwise, if you really want to be mistaken for a gang of robbers, then you will be in big trouble!
