Chapter 8: The Bitter Wine Is Hard to Swallow (Part II)

After everyone returned to Chang'an, they dispersed, Zhu Yushi and Luo Tianchu came to Zhu's house, and the porter Lao Zhao shouted excitedly when he saw Zhu Yu: "Young grandmother, old lady, the head of the house is back!" Zhu Yushi walked into the small courtyard, and saw that the yard was clean and tidy, not a single dead leaf was gone, and a rope hung between the two small trees next to the east house, drying the freshly washed children's clothes and diapers.

After a while, Jiang Nu'er ran out like a whirlwind with the child in her arms, she was wearing a straight-necked linen dress, her hair was scattered, and her face was not powdered, she really felt like a housewife, and the little girl who was wearing a small bell and was smart and lively for the first time was like two people, full of feminine charm and even more charming and moving. When he saw Zhu Yu, he was so excited that he couldn't speak for a while. Zhu Yushi stepped forward and bowed to her to the end and said, "The lady has worked hard." Jiang Nu'er hurriedly Shi Wanfu replied: "Don't be like this, this is what a concubine should do, Yilian, you see, this is your father, call your father quickly." ”

Zhu Yilian is eight months old, her loose hair is tied with a small braid with a red rope, she is wearing a jujube red jacket, her face is like a shelled egg, her skin is as white as congealed cream, her eyes are bright and black round, and her small mouth under her nose is as red as a cherry, and she looks blankly at the "stranger" in front of her. Zhu Yushi's eyes suddenly moistened, and he tentatively opened his hands and said softly: "Yilian, I'm my father." Xiao Yilian was so frightened that she quickly shrunk into Jiang Nu'er's arms. Jiang Nu'er smiled: "The child was too young when you left, so I let you hug it when I got acquainted." Zhu Yushi showed a smile for the first time and said, "Yes, yes, the child doesn't recognize his father." Jiang Nu'er said: "You and your uncle should go into the house and sit, don't freeze the child when it's windy outside." Zhu Yushi hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, come into the house." Luo Tianchu was relieved: "I won't go in, you should have a lot to say for your family reunion, greet my godmother for me." Zhu Yushi said: "Okay, I'll look for you later, we have a good drink." Luo Tianchu said with a smile: "If you don't get drunk, you won't return, and your younger brothers and sisters should take care." Jiang Nu'er said: "Uncle walk slowly." ”

After Zhu Yushi entered the West House, he asked, "What about my mother?" Jiang Nu'er said: "My mother rests in the room, and now my mother can't sleep at night, so she is tired during the day." Zhu Yushi felt distressed and blamed himself, came to the door, knelt down through the curtain, and waited for his mother to get up. I only heard Zhu Li's voice coming from inside: "Is it raining?" Zhu Yushi hurriedly said: "The unfilial son came to visit his mother." Zhu Li said: "Come in, slaves and children also come in." After the couple answered, they entered the house one after another, and Zhu Yushi trotted to Zhu Li's bed and knelt down and said, "The unfilial son kowtowed to his mother." After saying that, "knock knock" knocked three times in a row, Zhu Li sat on the edge of the bed and said, "Don't knock, tell me how my daughter-in-law is doing?" Jiang Nuer also said: "Yes, yes, is that sister also back?" Zhu Yushi was mentioned sadly, and his heart tingled, so he had to tell the story. After finishing speaking, Jiang Nuer also cried sadly, and Zhu Li was silent.

Zhu Yushi hurriedly kowtowed and said: "Even if Zhirui has a dishonorable festival, it is to save the child, please don't blame the mother." Zhu Li said angrily: "Where is my mother's fault for my good daughter-in-law, the blame is your useless thing, such a good daughter-in-law was snatched away and didn't even let out a fart, I was really angry." Zhu Yushi confessed: "It's all useless children, and mothers must not hurt their bodies." Zhu Li said: "I am angry, my daughter-in-law is guilty, no matter what method you use, you have to save Zhirui, and you have to be twice as good to others, if you dare to dislike people to see me, I won't break your legs." Zhu Yushi said: "Zhirui has a life-saving grace for the child, and the child should repay her with her life." ”

Zhu Li said: "It's about the same, do you want to leave when you come back this time?" Zhu Yushi said: "The child originally planned to leave tomorrow, but now he decided to stay with his mother for two more days." Jiang Nu'er couldn't hide her disappointment, "Ah!" Zhu Li said: "You don't have to accompany me, you should accompany your wife and daughter well, your daughter doesn't recognize you anymore!" Zhu Yushi had no choice but to say: "Yes!" Zhu Li's tone softened slightly: "Luo Tianchu's child has told Weiniang everything you did, you are indeed very dangerous in the horse gang, but Weiniang will not persuade you to give up, because Weiniang knows the reason why you did that, and I am very pleased that you have become a good man who dares to take responsibility and renews your promises, and has not embarrassed the old Zhu family." Zhu Yushi was grateful and said: "Thank you for understanding the child's distress, the child will not let the mother down." Zhu Li waved his hand and said, "You all go out, for my mother to continue sleeping." ”

Zhu Yushi and Jiang Nuer bowed and exited the room, Jiang Nuer said: "If you want to have something to do with your uncle, go and don't have to take care of the house." Zhu Yushi said: "My business is to accompany you and the child, and I haven't seen you again these days." Jiang Nu'er said with tears in her eyes: "I know that your affairs outside are extremely important, but I really want you to stay." Zhu Yushi wiped away her tears with pity, and said abruptly: "This is my home, why don't I want to stay, I promise that the day of separation is coming to an end, and after I take Luoyang, I will be with you every day, and I won't go anywhere." Jiang Nu'er said: "Then how long will it take?" Zhu Yushi said: "A year or two." Jiang Nu'er burst into tears and said with a smile: "One or two years is not a long time, as long as you have hope, when the time comes, you take Sister Zhirui back, and our family will live happily." Zhu Yushi smiled: "Of course it's good, Zhirui seems to be a year younger than you, she should call you sister." Jiang Nuer smiled: "She is the main wife, I am the second wife, and calling her sister is also in line with the identity." Zhu Yushi said: "Both of you are the main wife, and there is no second wife." Jiang Nu'er said: "Then how to do it, this is the rule." Zhu Yushi said: "I didn't want to abide by this rule from the beginning, but now that Yuelian is gone, you are rightfully my wife, and so is Zhirui, there is no difference between you." Jiang Nuer smiled: "Okay, thank you." ”

Who knew that at this moment, Xiao Yilian suddenly called out delicately, "Dad." Zhu Yushi was stunned, and a strange and cordial feeling arose in his heart, dancing excitedly, clapping his hands and saying, "Little girl, what do you call me." Zhu Yilian called "Dad" again, more clearly than just now. Zhu Yushi laughed, carefully hugged Xiao Yilian, held her in her arms and smelled the faint frankincense on her body, felt crispy and soft in her heart, and couldn't smell enough of the smell, and kissed her pink and translucent little face a few times. Xiao Yilian was not used to him being so enthusiastic, struggling to escape from his arms, Zhu Yushi hurriedly apologized: "Don't kiss it, don't kiss it, let Dad hug it again." Xiao Yilian began to cry as soon as she pouted, and Zhu Yushi was so frightened that she couldn't stop apologizing. Jiang Nu'er smiled: "Come, give her to me." As soon as Xiao Yilian returned to Jiang Nu'er's arms, she immediately stopped crying, her little face rubbed against her neck, she looked coquettish, and the tears on her face did not dry, looking pitiful. Jiang Nu'er said: "I am not afraid of you everywhere with the child, and now Uncle Luo won't cry when he hugs her." Zhu Yushi said sadly: "In the future, I will accompany her every day and get back what I lost." Jiang Nu'er said: "Now the child doesn't remember, it's too late to cultivate feelings when you come back later, by the way, you haven't seen the child crawl, come with me." ”

Zhu Yushi followed the mother and daughter to the bedroom of the East House, and played with Xiao Yilian for two whole hours, not tired at all, and finally Zhu Yushi successfully kissed Xiao Yilian on the cheek, not only did not cry, but also grinned and giggled, Zhu Yushi was not to mention how excited. The sky gradually darkened, and Xiao Yilian, who was tired of playing, lay asleep in Jiang Nuer's arms, Jiang Nuer smiled bitterly: "Oh no, it's time to be refreshed again when you sleep at night." Zhu Yushi smiled: "It's okay, I'll accompany her." Jiang Nu'er made a silent gesture and said, "Don't make noise about the child, you can get busy." Zhu Yushi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go find Xiao Luo." Before leaving, he kissed Jiang Nu'er on the cheek, and the latter's cheeks were crimson and charming.

When Zhu Yushi walked out of the house, his low mood had been swept away, and he was full of energy, full of yearning and enthusiasm for a better life, as long as a person has hope, he will not be depressed, and his hope comes from his daughter Xiao Yilian.

Luo Tianchu was also surprised when he saw him, and said with surprise and joy: "Why do you look like you have been reborn." Zhu Yushi said with a smile: "Of course it's my daughter's strength, come on, let's see if your alcohol consumption has grown."

When the two of them ate the eighteenth cup in the Drunken Immortal Building, the slight taste of alcohol made them energetic, and they talked more. Luo Tianchu said: "Do you remember the last time we were drunk?" Zhu Yushi closed his eyes and thought: "It should be the time for us to bow to Brother Zhong, that time Brother Zhong was injured, and he still accompanied us until he was unconscious." Luo Tianchu said: "Yes, although we have eaten and drunk in the future, we have never been drunk, do you know why?" Zhu Yushi said: "Tell me about it." Luo Tianchu said: "Because we no longer have the mood to get drunk." Zhu Yushi nodded in agreement. Since they joined the Blood Sword Castle, in addition to practicing martial arts, they have been doing one thing after another after the martial arts competition, and they are really not in the mood to eat and drink, let alone get drunk. Luo Tianchu raised his wine glass, stared at the contents of the glass and said: "I used to eat fast and get drunk quickly, because the wine is filled with pride, so I will eat it first." Now that I eat bitter wine, I have to taste it slowly to know the taste of bitterness. With that, he drank the wine slowly.

Zhu Yushi said: "I heard that the eldest lady quarreled with you and won't come back, is this serious?" Luo Tianchu leaned back in the chair and nodded. Zhu Yushi said: "Do you want to say it and listen to it?" Luo Tianchu smiled bitterly: "Do you still think my glass of wine is not bitter enough?" Zhu Yushi stared at his wine glass and said: "Don't say it, pouring bitter water on others will only make you more sad, and none of us will mention the sad things." After saying that, he drank it all. (To be continued.) )
