"Little guy, come to the door, why don't you come in!"
"You are an upright scholar, how can you be afraid of me, a rotten old woman?"
After hearing what the old lady said, Zhou Dagu was no longer afraid.
The old lady has obviously read books and knows etiquette.
This kind of old lady won't behave uncontrollably. There's nothing to be afraid of if she's a reasonable person. She's not a brainless animal that bares its teeth at will.
"You are at home alone!"
"You won't be alone when you come in!"
The old lady pointed to the stool next to her: "Don't worry, I hugged you when you were a child! I've seen your bare butt before, but it doesn't look real when you put on a long gown!"
"That's what you taught me!"
Among the people in her own village, Zhou Youran did not dare to act like a tomboy to protect her brother, and stood aside obediently, as if she was a good girl.
"Why do you have time to come to my door?"
"I'm here to give you something!" Respecting the elderly is not Da Ying's moral requirement, but a legal requirement. Zhou Dagu's attitude is very respectful.
The old lady didn't speak, and the atmosphere in the inner hall suddenly became cold.
Zhou Dagu took a step forward, thinking about putting down his things and leaving. He saw too many strange old ladies today.
He really didn't want to waste time on such an old lady.
Xu Dian understood what he meant.
"Pfft!"
The rice on his body hit the wooden floor of the old lady's house heavily.
Mrs. Chen woke up from her deep thoughts: "Oh! When we get old, we can no longer be the same as when we were young. If we don't pay attention, we can easily doze off and fall asleep."
"Boy, I am an old lady. Although I don't like to go out, I am still well-informed about the news in our Zhoujia Village!"
Zhou Dagu nodded in agreement. Who could tell the old lady about rural gossip?
"I know you came back from Two Realms Mountain!"
"I also know that you are the only one coming back from the Two Realms Mountains!"
"I'm very happy that you haven't come to my house these days!"
"The old woman knows that I am just deceiving myself, but I still want to deceive myself. After all, I only have this one baby to depend on!"
"They all stabbed me in the back and said my son was a deserter. I also thought in my heart that no matter how deserted, a deserter can come back alive!"
Zhou Dagu fell silent.
He looked at the last dark figure outside the Meridian Gate.
That young man with a sad face.
He could have come back!
He was a hero who defended the country for a great victory, but he died in the Two Worlds Mountain for a despicable carnivore.
Zhou Dagu's lips moved. He wanted to tell the truth hidden deep in his heart, but he couldn't say it yet. He couldn't bear the anger of the left prime minister.
And, the families of those who died in Blood Dragon Valley also need those ten taels of silver!
Those who are alive need to continue to live!
The old lady continued to speak, her tone becoming calmer, but there was a hint of despair that could not be concealed in her calmness: "When I saw you today, I wished this was just a fantasy!"
"But you still came, and you didn't come empty-handed!"
"These things must have been bought with my child's life!"
Zhou Dagu nodded: "Yes!"
"I've accepted the things. You can go back! The old woman won't force you to keep them!"
Zhou Dagu took out the last family letter hidden in his arms: "Grandma Chen, this is..."
"No need, everyone has already gone. Knowing this is just adding to the sentimentality!"
Zhou Dagu nodded and watched the black shadow leave his body and come to the old lady's side.
He turned around and slowly walked out of the courtyard.
"Da Gu!" Old Mrs. Chen suddenly called him!
Zhou Dagu turned around in confusion.
The old lady said with a little pleading in her eyes: "My child, will you be brave on the battlefield?"
Zhou Dagu lied: "Brave! He was the one who blocked the enemy at the last moment, otherwise, I wouldn't be able to come back!"
It's not a lie. His coming back has something to do with everyone's death.
"That's good, that's good!" The old lady waved her hand.
Zhou Dagu left the small courtyard and closed the door of the small courtyard with both hands.
In Zifu, the Meridian Gate quietly opened a crack.
Zhou Dagu stood at the door and closed his eyes.
The old lady tried her best to hide her cries. Sadness was the most unconcealable emotion. The cries became louder and louder.
Zhou Dagu saw the open door.
The memory palace is clear in Zifu. This is my temple of literature.
Zhou Dagu felt something strange in his heart.
In an instant, he seemed to have turned into a drone taking off, and he could clearly see the entire Confucian Temple.
There was a golden light in front of the Meridian Gate, and several rooms next to the Shenwu Gate were also lit up, but other places were still dark.
Zhou Dagu's eyes fell to the ground, and he pushed open the Meridian Gate with a gentle push.
He opened his eyes, and there was still gold around him. This gold came from him.
Purple stars twinkled in the sky, wondering if they were celebrating his victory.
The two boundary mountains, the earth shook.
Captain Zhang looked into the distance: "Captain, the dragon's veins are shaking, what is this?"
The pot-bellied general beside him shook his head: "It's a good thing that the country's luck has increased a lot, but what's the good thing about my big win?"
Zhoujia Village.
Xu Dian looked at him in disbelief: "Brother Gu! Brother Gu, you?"
"Yeah! I've broken through!"
He looked to the north, which was the direction of Kyoto.
Prime Minister Zuo, I am one step closer to you.
He looked forward to the day when the truth would come out of his mouth instead of lies.
I believe that this day will not be too far away.
Zhou Dagu raised his hand with the golden light on his body and looked at Zhang San who stood aside with a big mouth: "Zhang Yuanwai!"
"Gu...Brother Gu, you have broken me!"
"Do me a favor, do you know all the houses where we will deliver things today?"
"I have the best memory, don't worry, I know it very well!"
"That's good, help me keep an eye on them. If anyone bullies these women and children for no reason, help me kill them!"
Zhang San smiled: "I understand! I understand, don't worry!"
Zhou Dagu patted him on the shoulder: "Go back!"
Zhang Sanyuan walked away, looking back every step of the way.
Zhou Dagu pointed in the direction of home: "Let's go back and eat. The biggest thing these days is that I finish reading the book the Master gave me and then wait for the results!"
Xu Dian whipped the donkey on the butt: "Let's go!"
In the night, people are happy.
Of course, some people are anxious!
Xu Dian drove back to the slope of Zhou Wu's home and saw a little potato under the moonlight: "Brother Gu, that! It seems to be that boy Wang An!"
Zhou Youran jumped off the donkey cart, completely unaware of Zhou Dagu's dark face, and waved to Xiao Tudou: "Wang An, Xiao Anzi, what are you doing in front of my house!"
Wang An jumped up on his legs and came to the front of the donkey cart: "Brother Gu, I knew you must have forgotten to go to my house. I just brought the chicken over here. It's delicious for you to try!"
Xu Dian took the pheasant that was hugged by the clods of soil from his hand.
Wang An took a step back unconsciously. He raised his head and looked at Zhou Dagu, and suddenly remembered Wang Yuanwai back then.
An invisible thick barrier appeared between the two of them.
Zhou Dagu didn't feel anything at all. He smiled and nodded: "I accepted the offer. I just happened to go home. There is no food to eat. We are going back first. You should go back quickly! Don't let your mother worry!"
Wang An nodded solemnly, glanced at Zhou Dagu, turned around and left.
Zhou Youran was a little strange: "He seems to have something on his mind!"
Zhou Dagu raised his head and said arrogantly: "Why do you understand his thoughts! Go back and eat."
Something happened here.
Storms are happening elsewhere!
