The carriage carried Chu Mofeng and the three of them all the way towards Beixian, Chu Mofeng couldn't hide his excitement and apprehension about to see his biological mother, sitting in the carriage and rubbing his hands constantly, his mouth seemed to be still muttering something.

At this time, Shi Hanshuang and Mo Ziyao were sitting in the carriage with nervous faces, after all, if they wanted to see their husband's mother, that is, their future mother-in-law, they would feel nervous and helpless as any woman.

Suddenly the atmosphere in the carriage suddenly became dull, in order to suppress his excitement and apprehension, Chu Mofeng had to open the curtains, looked out along the window, and what caught his eye was a vast field, the spring breeze in March blew, waking everything up from slumber, and the hard-working people could be vaguely seen in the field, looking at the scene outside the window, Chu Mofeng gradually calmed down.

Turning his head and seeing that the second girl in the carriage had been bowing her head and not saying a word, Chu Mofeng asked in surprise: "What's wrong with you two? Wasn't it good all the way when you came by boat before? What's wrong? The two of them are having an awkward quarrel?"

Shi Hanshuang and Mo Ziyao raised their heads at the same time and shook their heads at Chu Mofeng, only to see Shi Hanshuang say with a melancholy face: "I'm about to see your mother, I'm very nervous, although you and I have a marriage contract, but the first time I saw your mother, I couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive." Then Shi Hanshuang glanced at Mo Ziyao, "I think Sister Ziyao thinks the same thing at the moment, right?"

When Mo Ziyao heard Shi Hanshuang ask herself, she smiled at Shi Hanshuang that was more ugly than crying and said, "It turns out that my sister also thinks the same way, what do you say about the two of us." ”

Understanding what happened, Chu Mofeng squeezed between the two of them despite their objections, stretched out his hand and took the two in his arms and said: "I thought it was a big deal, my mother is a very kind person, I remember that when I was a child, no matter what wrong things my brothers and I did, my mother would not punish us severely, but carefully reasoned with us, and over time, we would think about our mother's words before doing something every time, and we would do what was right and not do what was wrong." So don't worry, Mother won't make things difficult for the two of you. ”

Hearing Chu Mofeng say this, the second daughter's mood slowly improved, and at this time, the carriage suddenly stopped, only to hear the handlebar style shouting outside: "Young Master Chu, Beixian has arrived." ”

The three of them hurriedly got out of the car when they heard this, only to see the carriage parked at the gate of the county seat of Beixian, although the majestic city wall was a little mottled by the wind and sun, but still could not suppress its solemnity, the three of them said goodbye to the handlebar type, and walked towards the city gate.

When they came to the gate of the city, two soldiers guarding the city came over, and one of them said to the three people: "How many of you have come from the place of sleep? What are you doing in the county? Outsiders are not welcome here, only the locals of the county can enter, if the three are not from the county, then please go back." ”

Seeing that the three of them were slow to answer, the other soldier drew the long sword at his waist and whispered to the three of them: "If the three of you want to force your way into the city, then don't blame us for being rude." "Then I'm going to rush up with the soldier from before.

Chu Mofeng saw that the two were about to rush up, stretched out his hand and waved at the two of them and shouted: "Stop, I am from Beixian County, my name is Gao Wencheng, and my father is Gao Xi, the left servant of the original Shangshu." The two behind me are my unmarried mothers, who have come back to visit my mother. ”

Hearing Chu Mofeng say this, the two soldiers hurriedly collected their weapons and hugged their fists at Chu Mofeng and said, "Gao Gongzi, forgive me, I offended you just now, please don't be surprised, it's really our county that's the rule." ”

"I can understand you, when I hired a carriage in Bohai County before, the shopkeeper of the car dealership told me the same thing. Chu Mofeng looked at the two dutiful soldiers in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a trace of warmth in his heart, it seems that the Gao clan does have a high prestige in Bei County and even the entire Bohai County, and the management system is extremely strict, and it should be very safe for my mother to live here for so many years.

Since it is a native of Fuxian County, two soldiers happily let the three of them enter the city, walking on the avenue of the city, the three of them found that the prosperity of this place is no less than that of Xijing, perhaps because this place is not far from the sea, many things that are not common in Zhangye or even Xijing, such as some seafood and its derived handicrafts can be seen everywhere in this place, and the price is cheap.

The three of them walked to the door of a luxurious store, and looked up to see that the goods in the store were dazzling, not only leather goods and handicrafts from the Western Regions, but also all kinds of decorations from the islands of the South China Sea, and even some rare plants, animals, and even fine tea, silk, cloth, and so on.

The shopkeeper behind the counter in the store saw that there were three people standing outside the door and refused to come in, so he hurriedly got up and walked out, smiled at the three and said: "The three of you need to buy something, go into the small store and take a look, the small store has complete goods, a few people can go in and choose slowly." As he spoke, he made a gesture of invitation to Chu Mofeng and the others.

Seeing this, the three of them glanced at each other, and then walked into this small shop together, Shi Hanshuang and Mo Ziyao saw the wide variety of goods in the store, and couldn't help but be happy in their hearts, and hurriedly rushed in to start selecting gifts for their mother-in-law, while Chu Mofeng came to the counter, ready to chat with the shopkeeper.

At this time, the shopkeeper walked behind the counter, closed the account book on the table and prepared to put it away, Chu Mofeng glanced at it inadvertently, only to see the word 'Song' printed on the front of the account book, and he opened his mouth to ask, "The shopkeeper's surname?"

"So that the guest officer knows, in the lower surname Gao, does the guest officer think that there can be people with foreign surnames in Bei County?"

"Aren't they the same? One surnamed Shi and the other surnamed Mo, isn't this in your store in Beixian?" Chu Mofeng heard that the shopkeeper seemed to be deliberately hiding something, so he joked with him.

"I'm sorry, this store doesn't greet outsiders, please leave, right?" Hearing Chu Mofeng say that the two daughters were not surnamed Gao, the shopkeeper's face suddenly changed, and he looked at the three of them coldly.

"I really don't want to leave today. Looking at the shopkeeper whose face had changed, Chu Mofeng continued to speak provocatively.

"That's really embarrassing, I can only go to the county office to find the arrest coming soon. Looking at Chu Mofeng, who was still entangled, the shopkeeper got up and was about to go out.

As soon as I walked to the door, I heard Chu Mofeng's voice behind me: "I'm also very curious, when did there be a store of the Lingnan Song family in Beixian County." ”

As soon as he heard the words 'Lingnan Song family', the shopkeeper who was just about to go out couldn't help but feel a chill, turned around and pretended to be calm and asked Chu Mofeng: "What Lingnan Song family? I don't know what the guest officer means, the shop is closed today, please go back." ”

"Shopkeeper, the Song character on the ledger has betrayed you. Chu Mofeng looked at this person with interest, took out a jade plaque from his arms, handed it to this person, and said, "What do you look at this?"

As soon as he saw this jade plate, the shopkeeper hurriedly made a gesture and said, "I've seen the big shopkeeper." After thinking about it, there seemed to be something wrong, so he straightened up and looked at Chu Mofeng coldly and said, "How did you have this brand, where did you steal it?"

Chu Mofeng sneered and said, "It was the patriarch of your Song family, Old Man Song Xiuyan personally handed it over to me, and also gave me half a piece of jade, so that I could go back to Zhangye and hand it over to Sister Xuanji." After speaking, he took out half a piece of jade from his pocket and showed it to this person.

Seeing that the two tokens were in the hands of this young man, the shopkeeper thought for a long time, and suddenly shouted as if he suddenly realized: "Are you the youngest son of Lord Gao Xi's family, you should be called Gao Wencheng, right?"

Chu Mofeng nodded without denying it, and when he saw Chu Mofeng admit it, the shopkeeper knelt on the ground and said to Chu Mofeng: "I don't know if the little boy arrived, I was offended just now, please don't blame the little boy." ”

"You get up, but I'm still curious, how did the Lingnan Song family enter Beixian County and open a store?"

As for this shop, it was agreed between the tall man and the big shopkeeper, and there was only one shop in Bei County, on the one hand, through the news of foreign trade, on the other hand, in order to protect the Gao family in Zhen County, especially Mrs. Heba's family. ”

At this time, Chu Mofeng couldn't help but sigh in his heart that his Lao Tzu was far-sighted, sure enough, Jiang was still old and spicy, and then the two chatted a few words, Shi Hanshuang and Mo Ziyao had already selected the gifts, and came to the counter to check out. ”

As soon as he heard this, Chu Mofeng feigned anger at the shopkeeper: "When I said goodbye to Old Man Song, I promised him that the old man would never use the jade plate to do things that should not be done, so I bother you to calculate how much it is, and I must pay this money." ”

Looking at Chu Mofeng's determined appearance, the shopkeeper's heart was also a burst of joy, there are very few people like this in recent years, thinking of this, he hurriedly quoted the price, Chu Mofeng took out the money and settled the account, said goodbye to the shopkeeper, and led the second daughter towards the direction of his ancestral house.

When he came to his ancestral house, Chu Mofeng suddenly stopped, turned his head and said to his second daughter: "I was suddenly a little nervous, and I didn't know what to say when I went in." ”

Shi Hanshuang stretched out his hand and patted him on the head and said, "You are stupid, you don't know what to say when you go back to see your mother? ”

Hearing Shi Hanshuang's reasoning, Mo Ziyao couldn't help laughing: "Hehe, sister, you're too funny, is this okay?"

"Of course, when I went back to see my mother, I just didn't know what to say, I cried vigorously, and I cried and cried. ”

"Alright then, let's go inside. Chu Mofeng saw that Shi Hanshuang was shaking her 'crooked reasoning' again, and couldn't help rubbing his forehead and walked towards the gate.

When he came to the door and was about to knock on the door, the door suddenly opened, and he saw a man of the same age as Chu Mofeng walking out and saying to the three of them, "May I ask what your Excellency is doing standing at the door of my house?"

"Who are you at the door of your house?" When he heard the man who opened the door say that this was his door, Chu Mofeng couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"Gao Biaoren, the third son of the Xia Gao family, I don't know who Your Excellency is?"

"Third brother, I'm Wen Cheng, don't you know me?" As soon as he heard that this person was his third brother Gao Biaoren, Chu Mofeng hurriedly stepped forward and hugged this person, and his excitement was overflowing.

When Gao Biaoren heard the person opposite call him the third brother, he hurriedly broke free from the person's embrace and looked at it carefully, and after a while, he suddenly pushed the person away, and ran towards the house while shouting: "Mother, the younger brother is back, the eldest sister, the younger brother is back, the second brother is coming out, the younger brother is back." ”

Seeing this, Chu Mofeng and the three of them flashed into the courtyard, and with Gao Biaoren's shouting, the entire Gao family's ancestral house suddenly boiled, only to see a man who looked very similar to Gao Biaoren running out, and after taking a look at Chu Mofeng, he immediately pounced and hugged Chu Mofeng tightly and said, "Little brother, where have you been all these years? Second brother misses you so much." When he had finished speaking, he began to weep bitterly.

As soon as Chu Mofeng saw his second brother crying, tears flowed out of his eyes, and he hugged Gao Hongde and said, "Second brother, my brother has missed you all these years." ”

The two brothers hugged their heads and cried for a while, and at this time, a woman's voice suddenly came from Chu Mofeng's ears: "Wen Cheng is back, come to Wei Niang's side and let her take a look." ”

Gao Hongde let go of Chu Mofeng, led him to a woman over fifty years old in front of the main hall, and said happily to this person: "Mother, look, Wencheng is back. Then he turned his head to Chu Mofeng and said, "Hurry up." ”

Chu Mofeng glanced at the woman in front of him, and saw that although this person was dressed luxuriously, the white hair between the green silk and the fatigue on his face could not be covered by these gorgeous clothes, and he couldn't help but have a sour look in his eyes, and knelt in front of this person and cried: "Mother, Wen Cheng has come back to see you." ”

Seeing that her longing little son suddenly appeared in front of her, thinking of the days she had spent on memories over the years, Mrs. Hebal couldn't help but wet her eyes, "Hurry up, let the mother take a good look at what my Wencheng looks like now." ”

As soon as Chu Mofeng heard his mother's instructions, he hurriedly stood up, looked at the woman who was supporting his mother, and said, "Mother, who is this?"

"Silly boy, this is your eldest sister, before you were born, or to be more precise, when Cousin was born, your eldest sister married into the palace, and then your brother-in-law, the former crown prince Yang Yong, was murdered by the King of Jin, your eldest sister has no news, and soon after we were sent back to the ancestral house, someone brought your eldest sister back. ”

Chu Mofeng shouted to the woman for the eldest sister, then looked around and asked, "What about Brother Sheng Dao?"

As soon as everyone heard Chu Mofeng mention Gao Shengdao, their faces couldn't help but darken, a sad look flashed on their faces, and no one answered for a long time, Chu Mofeng asked again in puzzlement, or the eldest sister Gao Liangdi opened her mouth: "Little brother, your eldest brother Sheng Dao was sent to Liucheng after his father's accident, and he died in Liucheng the next year." At that time, I was almost killed in the palace, but it was two women who saved me, and by the way, I also rescued your third sister-in-law. ”

When Chu Mofeng heard that his eldest brother had already died, he couldn't help but feel sad, and at this time, Mrs. Heba suddenly said: "Don't be sad, child, everything is over, at least we are still alive, aren't we?"

Chu Mofeng nodded vigorously, and at this time, Mrs. Heba pointed to Shi Hanshuang and the two who were standing not far away and asked, "Child, who are these two?"

Seeing this, Chu Mofeng hurriedly waved his hand and signaled the two to step forward, and just as he was about to introduce, he saw the second daughter kneeling down in front of Mrs. Heba and said: "I've seen my aunt, I'm Shi Hanshuang (Mo Ziyao), we came back with Brother Chu to visit my aunt, and I was too hasty to come to the door for the first time. ”

After the death of Gao Xi's wife, the Heba clan was able to manage the entire Gao Mansion and raise a few children by himself, and he still had this eyesight, so he hurriedly motioned to Gao Biaoren to take the gift, and said to the second daughter: "Get up quickly, you are a guest when you enter the door, let's go to the main hall and sit together." ”

Then Mrs. Heba said to Gao Hongde: "Tell your subordinates to go to the restaurant in the city to prepare a table of wine and send it, and say that our Gao Mansion will have a reunion dinner today, let them prepare carefully, and don't go on a business trip." Then he turned his head to Gao Liangdi and said, "Go and call out the third daughter-in-law, tell her that there is a guest at home, and let her come to the main hall to accompany her." ”

The two hurriedly answered and went down to prepare, at this time, Chu Mofeng and Gao Biaoren helped Mrs. Heba into the main hall and sat down, so they each found a seat and sat down, only to hear Mrs. Heba say to Chu Mofeng: "Wencheng my son, how are you doing in Zhangye all these years?"

"Let the mother worry about it, my son is doing well over there. ”

"Well, as long as you children live a good life, you can rest assured, and it is a coincidence that your second brother and third brother also came back to visit your mother this time, and the three of you got together, it seems that God is still taking care of our Gao family in the dark." ”

"Mother, my son has come back this time to discuss something with you. ”

"Silly boy, you don't say that you are a mother, you know, you are going to get married, right?"

"This is all for my mother to see. that his son may be ashamed. ”

Mrs. Heba looked at Chu Mofeng and smiled and said, "Zhizi Mo Ruomu, if you can't even see this little thing as a mother, haven't you lived for so many years in vain?" Then he beckoned to Shi Hanshuang and Mo Ziyao and said, "You two come here, I have something to say to you two." ”

Seeing this, the second daughter hurriedly stepped forward and stood still in front of Mrs. Heba, only to see Mrs. Heba stand up, take off the jade bracelets on the wrists of both hands, put them in the hands of the second daughter one by one, and said to the two: "Miss Shi, the old body knows that the marriage contract between you and Wencheng was made by your father, and since it is decided, I will respect their wishes;

When Mo Ziyao heard someone mention the word Mo Xiuyuan, she looked at Mrs. Heba in surprise and said, "Auntie, Mo Xiuyuan is my father, but my parents died when I was a child, how did you know my father's name?"

"You practiced medicine in the Mo family era, I studied medicine under your grandfather for a few years when I was young, and your father is my senior brother. ”

Hearing Mrs. Huba say this, Mo Ziyao couldn't help but be happy, and before she was ready to salute, she only heard Mrs. Herba say: "Our Gao family, since the catastrophe in the third year of the Great Cause, except for the death of the eldest son, the rest of the people have also been living secretly, but despite this, the rules of the Gao family still exist. Today, since you two are in love with Wencheng and my son, then I agree to your marriage. ”

Then Mrs. Heba stood up straight, as if returning to the era when the Gao family said everything, and said sharply: "The daughter-in-law of the Gao family, none of them are jealous and intriguing, including me and the eldest lady, the reason why the Gao family can always be together is to unite and work together, this is not only my family, but also the entire Gao family in Bohai County, and the first family motto is unity. I hope you both remember. ”

When the two daughters heard this, they glanced at each other, and hurriedly nodded yes, and at this moment, Gao Hongde walked in and said to Mrs. Hebal: "Mother, the banquet will be sent later, and the son will personally supervise the preparation." ”

Mrs. Huba nodded, and at this time Gao Liangdi also led a pretty woman into the house, and the woman came to Mrs. Huba, bowed to her, and said, "My daughter-in-law has seen my mother-in-law." ”

Mrs. Horpat looked at the woman in front of her and said, "Silly boy, you have just recovered, don't do this great gift." Then he turned his head to Chu Mofeng and said, "Wen Cheng, I came up and saw your third sister-in-law." ”

"Wen Cheng has seen the third sister-in-law. ”

"I haven't seen you for so many years, and my little brother has grown so big, what a talent. ”

When everyone was chatting, the people in the house led the guys from the restaurant to come over the banquet, and after placing all the things, the leading guy made a gesture to Mrs. Heba and said: "Old lady, our shopkeeper said, the little boy's return is a major event in the county, and today's banquet is a little bit of the shopkeeper's heart. ”

Mrs. Horbal smiled and said, "Thank you for me, good news, reward." ”

When Gao Liangdi heard this, she took out a bunch of money from her pocket and stuffed it into the man's hand and said, "Take what Madame gives, don't shirk." It's hard work. ”

A few of the men hurriedly bowed to Mrs. Hebal, and then left the high mansion.

The family sat around the table and was about to start eating, when Chu Mofeng suddenly stood up and said to everyone: "Mother, brother, sister, sister-in-law, Wen Cheng came today to discuss something with you. ”

When everyone heard Chu Mofeng say that they had something to discuss, they couldn't help but stop what they were doing and looked up at Chu Mofeng in unison, as if they wanted to hear what this young son who had been away from home for many years had to say......
