Chapter 70: Returning Home
"I want to go home. Lu Shaoyu said suddenly.
"Huh?"
"I want to go home. Lu Shaoyu said again, "There is nothing to do in the Valley of Ten Thousand Medicines, as long as someone helps me take care of the medicine field, the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall should approve going back to my hometown to visit relatives." ”
There is a rule in the sect that disciples have an opportunity to return to their hometown to visit relatives every year, and as long as they apply to the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall and get permission, they can go down the mountain. But recently, because the ancestor gave an order, I'm afraid the other disciples won't approve it. However, Lu Shaoyu is not a formal disciple, and it is estimated that the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall will not refuse to be embarrassed.
Lu Yuan glanced at him and sighed: "Yes, you are from the Valley of Ten Thousand Medicines, and you should allow it." We inner disciples can't do it, I tried to mention it to Master two months ago, but he didn't agree. He said that if he wanted to go home, he would have to compete with Tiangangmen a year later. ”
"Then, the medicine field in the Valley of Ten Thousand Medicines, can you help me take care of it?" Lu Shaoyu asked.
Lu Yuan nodded: "Well, you can." But I don't know much, you have to teach me first, otherwise it will be a big trouble if you kill the herbs. And when you go back, help me bring some things home, too." ”
"Okay. ”
※※※※※※※※※※※※
After a few days, Lu Yuan ran in the direction of the Valley of Ten Thousand Medicines when he had time. Lu Shaoyu explained to him the cultivation and care methods of medicinal herbs in each medicinal field. Five days later, Lu Shaoyu applied to the miscellaneous hall to return to his hometown to visit relatives.
The miscellaneous hall did not embarrass him, but immediately allowed him to come down, signed a decree for him, and gave him ten taels of silver for the passage.
Lu Shaoyu packed up, took Lu Yuan's letters and the items he carried, said goodbye to Lu Yuan, went down the mountain, and hired a car to go west.
All the way!
The carriage galloped quickly on the road for five days, and finally returned to Lujiazhuang in the evening of the sixth day.
The dim sunlight shone on Lujiazhuang, covering the whole village with a hazy veil. Wisps of cooking smoke rise from the village, and with the slight evening breeze swinging towards the towering mountains behind the village, it is as quiet as a quiet local ink painting.
Lu Shaoyu got out of the carriage and walked towards the entrance of the village, his father's cloth village was not far from the entrance of the village, and he arrived in a short time.
The cloth village is still the same, and the flag in front of the door with a pale yellow "cloth" written on it swayed gently in the night wind.
The door of the cloth village was still open, and my father did not close. Lu Shaoyu smiled lightly, and was about to walk over, but saw a person walking out of the village.
The gray-yellow caftan that is still familiar is his father Lu Hao.
Lu Hao didn't see his son, he turned around and prepared to close the door.
"Daddy. Lu Shaoyu walked over quickly and shouted.
Lu Hao was stunned for a moment, turned around quickly, and when he saw his son walking towards him, he opened his mouth in astonishment, and then said excitedly: "Shaoyu, you ...... You're back!"
Lu Shaoyu smiled and nodded, "Yes, I'm back." Daddy, are you going home? Let's go back together. ”
"Oh, okay, okay, let's go back together, go back together. Lu Hao nodded again and again, looking excited, "You wait for me, I'll close the door first......"
Lu Shaoyu stepped forward to help.
"Since you left, your aunt has been thinking about you all day long, and she must be very happy when you come back...... Oh yes, how did you get back?"
"I asked for family leave from the sect. ”
"Oh...... Oh, it's good to be back, it's been more than a year, and my son has grown up. Lu Hao looked at his son, in a year and a half, his son has grown taller again, and now he has reached the root of his ear.
"Hehe, Daddy and Mom are doing well. ”
"It's okay, it's still the same, it's nothing...... Oh, by the way, your mother will definitely give you a surprise later!" Lu Hao smiled, his face filled with a sly smile, like a proud child.
"Surprise?" Lu Shaoyu looked at his father suspiciously.
"Hehe, you'll find out when you see your mother later. ”
“......”
The father and son hurriedly packed up, stepped on the twilight, and walked home.
Home, still the original home, gray and black gates, clean courtyards, old well platforms, brand new window paper......
Just like when I left, nothing changed at all!
Only the apricot tree in the courtyard had sparse green leaves when it left, but it had become dense and green by this time.
In the kitchen, a small sound came from the mother, presumably cooking dinner.
Lu Shaoyu quietly walked to the kitchen, saw a familiar figure busy in front of the stove, his heart warmed, and he shouted, "Mother, I'm back." ”
Tang Xue let out a soft cry of "ah", was stunned, and quickly turned her head, her face was already full of joy.
"Shaoyu, you ...... It's back. Tang Xue said excitedly, and the spatula in her hand trembled slightly.
"Yes, mother, I'm back. Lu Shaoyu looked at the familiar face, and his heart became excited, his eyes slowly fell on his mother's belly with an apron, and he saw that there was a slight bulge.
Lu Shaoyu was stunned for a moment, and his mouth was half open: "Mother...... This ......"
Tang Xue saw her son's gaze, a plush suddenly rose on her face, and she stroked her belly lovingly.
Lu Hao also walked in at this time, patted Lu Shaoyu's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Haha, son, you will soon have a younger brother or sister." It's been more than three months, and if you come back half a year later, you should be able to see him...... Haha, isn't your dad amazing!"
Lu Shaoyu looked at his father's face with a happy smile, and also smiled, dare to love this is the surprise that his father said.
Tang Xue came over with a spatula, grabbed Lu Hao's ear, and scolded: "Die, what are you talking nonsense in front of your son......
"Ah...... Pain, lady, don't dare to ...... anymore"
Lu Hao grinned and took the spatula from Tang Xue's hand, "Oh, you are coarse, don't do the heavy work of cooking, I'll ...... I'll ......."
Tang Xue said angrily: "It's only been more than three months, and I'm not so squeamish." If you want to run a cloth village, it's not easy to get up early and get dark......"
"Hehe, my son is here, what are you talking about...... Lu Hao smiled, waved his hand to Lu Shaoyu, and said: "Son, quickly help your mother go out and talk with your mother." There is a lot of oil smoke here, and it is not good for the fetus to smoke too much...... You sit down and wait a little while for dinner. ”
"Hehe, okay, Daddy. Lu Shaoyu helped his mother out of the kitchen, came to the living room, and chatted with his mother.
Soon, my father came out with a hot meal and beckoned the two of them, "Okay, you're all hungry, come and eat." ”
Tonight's meal was hearty, with soup and meat, and a table full of them.
The three of them sat down, chatted while eating, and had a good time...... (If you think it's good-looking, don't forget to collect and recommend support, thank you!!)
