Zhou Ruhai looked depressed, he supported his old family, lowered his head and walked to his home, he was physically and mentally exhausted, he had already lost confidence in finding his son, and even for a moment, he thought that his son was no longer in this world.

Zhou Ruhai, who was immersed in sadness, had a blurred vision, and suddenly saw a person kneeling on the side of the road, kowtowing to himself, and saying something in his mouth, he wondered for a while, thinking that he had met a beggar, but he doubted in his heart, the clothes on this beggar were quite clean, but they were a little torn.

"What does this man want to do when he kneels here?" Zhou Ruhai turned his head and asked his old family in a low voice.

The old family is also in a very bad mood at this time, he has been working as a long-term worker in the Zhou family since he was a teenager, it can be said that he has served the Zhou family for several generations, Zhou Zhou Ming is also what he watched grow up, although this child has been weak and sickly since he was a child, but he has been working hard, his mind is still very good, and he is a good seedling of reading.

And Zhou Ming's child has changed a lot recently, since he was injured, he can almost no longer practice martial arts, but since he got married, he suddenly showed a very high martial arts cultivation, which not only shocked the entire Zhou family, but even this old family is sincerely happy for Zhou Ming, after all, if he can shine the lintel for the Zhou family, even if he is an old man, his face is bright.

But it backfired, Zhou Ming, who had already entered the right path, went to the yamen on an errand and suddenly cracked a big case, he had a promising future, but he suddenly disappeared yesterday, he and the master searched for a night, but found nothing.

The old family is older than Zhou Ruhai, and his ears have long been deaf, and he didn't understand Zhou Ruhai's question at the first time, so he asked: "Master, what did you say?" ”

Zhou Ruhai was in a bad mood because of his son, and when he saw the old family so deaf, he didn't hear his words clearly, and he was even more angry, but fortunately, Zhou Ruhai is a scholar, and at least he still has the cultivation, and after all, the old family has been in the Zhou family for decades, and it can be said that he is already half of the Zhou family, no matter how angry he is, Zhou Ruhai is not angry.

"That person, kneeling here and kowtowing, is he begging for money?" Zhou Ruhai raised his voice and said, "If it is, you give him a few taels of broken silver and send him away."

And after you get home, you must not mention the matter of the young master in front of your wife, she is a woman, in case you can't accept this cruel reality, the consequences will be difficult to control. ”

The old family nodded, this time they finally understood Zhou Ruhai's words, although their old man did not get angry or show impatience, but this old family member understood in his heart that the old man was looking at his own time in the Zhou family for so many years, giving himself face.

He let go of Zhou Ruhai's hand, and ran to Zhou Zhou Ming with a smoke, angry in his heart, thinking that there was such a big thing in our family, this stinky person didn't have any eyesight, and he actually dared to stop the old man to ask for money, he really ate the bear's heart and leopard gall, which is also my family's old man's kindness, otherwise if it was replaced by someone else, there would be no money, and it would be possible to be beaten.

The old family took out a few coins of silver from his body and threw them on the ground in front of Zhou Ming, and then said in a cold tone: "These silver taels, you take them to have a full meal, get out of here quickly, my lord is in a bad mood, you must not mess with him, otherwise you will not be able to eat and walk around." ”

After Zhou Ming kowtowed and admitted his mistake, he didn't raise his head, he was waiting for the old father to teach him a lesson, but what he didn't expect was that he waited and waited, and he didn't wait for the old father to speak, but the old family didn't know how to throw down a few coins of silver and wanted to drive himself away.

Zhou Zhou Ming slowly raised his head with a puzzled face, looked at the old family member, and couldn't help asking, "What do you mean by this?" For the sake of you being an old man in my family, I usually respect you very much, even if you make a mistake in doing errands, I never have the same knowledge as you.

I didn't expect our whole family to respect you, in exchange for you not taking the master in your eyes, you are really bold! ”

The old family is very experienced in driving away Hanako like Zhou Ming, and he knows that even if these people get the silver taels, they will not easily walk away, unless you give them some food, they will be satisfied.

Although the old family has the intention to do this, but at this moment, the Zhou family is still hungry, how can there be anything for Huazi to eat, so after giving a few coins of silver, he did not leave immediately, he has been observing Zhou Ming's every move, if Zhou Zhou Ming takes the money and does not leave, he will use coercive means to bombard Zhou Ming away.

But what he didn't expect was that instead of leaving, the beggar in front of him raised his head and taught himself a fierce lesson.

This old man is also a person with a head and a face in the Zhou family, when did he receive such a bird anger, he rolled up his arms and sleeves, and planned to make an endless fuss with Zhou Ming.

As a result, before he could speak, he recognized Zhou Ming's identity.

The old family opened their mouths wide and couldn't say a word for a long time.

Losing the support of his old family, Zhou Ruhai walked a little trembling, he walked behind the old man with difficulty, and said impatiently: "It's just a flower child, why haven't you sent it away?" ”

Hearing this, the old family finally came to their senses, he turned around, hugged Zhou Ruhai, and said in a loud voice with emotional excitement: "Master, young master...... It's the young master! The young master is back! ”

Zhou Ruhai was shocked, he quickly pushed his old family aside, quickly walked to Zhou Ming, squinted his eyes, looked carefully from top to bottom, and confirmed that the person in front of him was really his son, his emotions completely exploded, and all of a sudden he burst into tears, hugging Zhou Ming and crying bitterly.

"You unfilial son! Where have you been all night? You make it so hard to find your father! ”

At this time, Zhou Zhou Ming realized that the old family member just now did not recognize his identity for the first time, so there was a misunderstanding.

Seeing his old father crying so miserably, Zhou Ming was infected unconsciously, and while he was supporting his old father and wiping his tears, he couldn't stop crying.

The old family saw the reunion of the father and son on the side, and while they were happy for the two of them, they couldn't help but wipe away their tears, thinking of the scene last night, when he and the old man were running around looking for the young master, they couldn't help but feel sad and angry.

It turned out that last night, Lin Ajiao and Chun Nier were the first people to go out to find Zhou Ming, and after the two left, Zhou Ruhai felt that the two women were in the middle of the night, and their hope of finding Zhou Ming was very slim, so he gathered all the subordinates in the family, let them put down their work, and all went out to find Zhou Ming, leaving only Huan'er and this old family member, Huan'er was responsible for serving Mrs. Zhou, and the old family was responsible for serving himself.

After all the subordinates of these families were sent out, Zhou Ruhai and Mrs. Zhou waited left and right, but they couldn't wait for a little news, in a hurry, Zhou Ruhai couldn't take care of his old age, and insisted on taking his old family to find Zhou Ming, although Mrs. Zhou blocked him several times, but in the end he couldn't resist him, so he could only send him out, telling him to be careful, and at the same time warning the old family that he must be careful to serve the master.

After Zhou Ruhai went out, he was not like Lin Ajiao and the others, looking aimlessly, because he had been in the officialdom for most of his life, although he had never made a name for himself, but in the officialdom, he still had a few friends.

Zhou Ruhai has always thought of himself as a gentleman, and has always thought that the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, so he usually doesn't have much interaction with these friends.

He took his old family and personally visited several friends who were successful in officialdom, hoping that they would come forward and use their strength to help him find his son.

As the so-called world is hot and cold, and people are warm and cold, most of these friends feel that Zhou Ruhai has reached his twilight years, and it is impossible to regain his strength in the officialdom and make a comeback.

After these people prevaricated, they politely invited Zhou Ruhai out of the house, and some of them didn't even go out to see off the guests.

Zhou Ruhai is usually the most dignified, but after being humiliated so much, he was not discouraged for the sake of his son, but continued to visit his acquaintances one by one, hoping to meet a kind-hearted person and make a little effort to find his son for him.

The hard work paid off, and it really allowed him to find a few warm-hearted people, and it just so happened that the official positions held by these people were also well-informed.

However, according to the news they feedback, there has been no disturbance in the capital city, and it has been peaceful in the past few days, and no vicious incidents have occurred.

This kind of news finally made Zhou Ruhai's mood a little calmer, and he was cheeky and asked one of his friends who had a better relationship to send someone to help him find his son.

This friend was strange and pitiful when he saw Zhou Ruhai like this, so he took a certain risk and sent someone to inform his subordinates and secretly look for Zhou Ming.

Seeing his friends help him like this, Zhou Ruhai was happy in his heart, but he also felt that finding his son was just around the corner, after all, it was better for people in the government to go out to find someone than for their family members to look for it.

Zhou Ruhai's friend, after sending someone out on an errand, went back to the back hall to rest.

But Zhou Ruhai did not leave, but was cheeky and waited in the living room until dawn.

The reason for this is very simple, because he wants to know the result of the search as soon as possible, and if he goes home halfway, even if the friend receives the result of the search and immediately sends someone to inform him, it will take a lot of time in between.

Zhou Ruhai was already waiting last night, and he didn't want to go through that terrible waiting process again, so even if he felt embarrassed, he didn't leave that friend's house half a step.

The old family has always been by Zhou Ruhai's side, and they prayed for their master in their hearts, hoping that he could find the young master as soon as possible and reunite the family.
