Because of the uncle's return, when the Xiao family, Yanfu, and Junhan came to the grandfather's house, the grandfather's family was already very lively.
Not to mention the people in the village, even the villagers from Shuicun and other villages came to visit my grandfather's house with bags of corn.
Although they are not the kind of powerful people in Linzi City who give gifts in the form of money and jewelry, these bags of corn are already one of the few things that the common people can get their hands on.
"Please please please~!"
"Please~!"
In the small garden, people are in high spirits during happy events, so Grandpa Zilu, wearing his treasured new clothes, has never seen a smile on his old face.
Seeing the village name come to visit with bags of rice and millet, Grandpa Zilu kept holding his long beard, glad that he had made the right choice.
He sold his family's land and raised ten thousand dollars for his eldest son to go to Qin.
Now that I am back, the fields I once lost will surely come back again soon.
"I've met my father!"
The grandfather suddenly heard a sound and found that his second son was coming with his daughter-in-law Shi. The joy on his face disappeared in an instant.
"Um!"
Grandfather made a nasal sound calmly.
My grandfather really disliked the second son's family. If it hadn't been for the eldest daughter-in-law's repeated pleas, he would not have let the second son's family step into this small garden.
The eldest daughter-in-law said that she had gone to this house to get a lot of money and food, so what?
As a son of man, you should obey filial piety. It is a matter of course that you should give any money or food before.
"Brother and sister, you are finally here!"
In the distance, Mrs. Ying saw Mrs. Xiao and stepped forward with enthusiasm.
Mrs. Ji looked at Shou'er's eldest aunt Ying, wondering what was going on in this woman's mind. She must have been waiting for a day, almost a year.
"Congratulations, brother and sister-in-law!"
Shi said with a warm smile, "I know I know, but I must not say anything right now, lest it offend anyone."
As long as Yingshi is given a chance, Yingshi can bury someone secretly for several years.
In the small garden.
"Zi Huai! Finally he's back!"
"Zihuai, when you come back this time, you want to take Zilu to Qin?"
Under the shade of the trees, villagers gathered around a middle-aged man and kept talking.
Among the villagers, ranging from old men in their forties and fifties to teenagers in their teens, they all looked at the middle-aged man with flattering eyes.
The man is Yan's uncle.
However, compared to when he went to Qin State, now the uncle seems to have just come back. He looks dusty and has a lot of dust on his clothes.
Fortunately, the villagers didn't care about this.
In the hearts of the villagers, the most capable people in the village are the uncle's family.
Although these villagers have never left Qi State, it does not prevent them from guessing that the uncle who traveled all the way to Qin to join Li Si, and now that he has returned to Qi, he must have gained a lot.
Maybe, given my uncle's abilities, he must have already held an official position in the Qin State.
When I come back today, I will take Zi Lu with me to Qin.
"Hehehe, don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry!"
The uncle looked at these villagers and smiled proudly.
However, I don't know whether it was the scorching sun that was too hot in this March day, or the green trees on the side that did not cover the scorching heat. When no one else felt hot, the uncle under the shade of the tree had sweat on his forehead.
"Not urgent?"
When the common people heard the uncle's answer, they couldn't help but look at each other in confusion.
In fact, not only these people, but also a woman who was busy in the distance at the moment couldn't help but look at the uncle.
As Zilu's aunt, the woman knew that Zihuai had sworn that after returning to Qi from Qin, he would take Zilu's uncle Zitai with him to Qin.
Come back now.
What does 'not in a hurry' mean?
In the small garden, Zilu's grandfather and grandmother also heard Zihuai's words and didn't understand what Zihuai meant.
Perhaps because he saw too many doubtful looks, the uncle's face changed, and his eyes were a little panicked. But fortunately, when he saw Yan's father and Shi, he quickly thought of a way to change the topic.
"Brother Zhong!"
The uncle suddenly shouted.
With one sentence, all the villagers in Yuanzi looked over.
Even Shi and Ying who were talking stopped their voices and looked at their uncle.
In the eyes of everyone, the uncle shook his head.
"Brother Zhong, although Zhong Yan is disrespectful to his brother, he will not drive him out of the house and sell him into slavery. How can I bear such a move as my brother?"
The uncle sighed.
After meeting Zhong Yan in Xianyang, the uncle thought for a long time and finally figured out why his most disgusted nephew appeared in Xianyang.
Yan's father must have been worried that he would be angry after he left, and finally understood that he knew that his nephew was just a waste and would be a burden in the future, so he kicked him out of the house, or bought him as a slave to provide subsidies for the impoverished family. some money.
That must be it!
Because only in this way can we explain why that waste appeared in Xianyang in the distant Qin Kingdom.
"Hey, when I was in Xianyang, I saw Zhong Yan in rags, poor and skinny, and I couldn't sleep at night!"
The uncle shook his head and said sadly, full of regret: "Brother Wei originally wanted to help Zhong Yan and take him with him, but just as he passed, Zhong Yan felt guilty when he saw his brother, and did not dare to face him directly, so he turned around and left. run!"
In the small garden.
The uncle had a look of pity on his face, as if he wanted to tell his second brother the scene where he tried so hard to chase him. Of course, the most important thing was to tell everyone.
The first is to repay the resentment he felt back then. The second brother's family, especially that loser, had made him angry a lot.
The second is to change the topic.
The uncle never thought that if he didn't go to Qin State, the bitches in the family would tell this matter.
The uncle knows that his wife and his uncle's wife are both people who can't keep their mouths shut, and only they will tell the truth and let other women in the village know about it and enjoy the flattery of those women.
The uncle almost got angry to death when he thought of this.
Now that he has just come back, everyone in the village is here. How can he say anything? He broke the Qin law in Qin and escaped back.
He did not come back to take his uncle and eldest son to Qin.
"Um?"
After the uncle finished speaking, he suddenly saw everyone in the yard looking at him with puzzled faces.
How is this going?
It stands to reason that if you tell me that story, wouldn't it definitely arouse everyone's discussion? Even when he said it just now, he deliberately exaggerated a lot.
Why is everyone looking at me like this at this moment?
Just when the uncle was confused.
Yan's father thought for a while and then raised his hands to his uncle.
"Brother, must you have seen it wrong! My son Zhong Yan is obviously in Yicheng."
Father Yan said.
When the uncle heard this, he suddenly laughed and shook his head quickly.
"Impossible. How could I be wrong about that appearance of Zhong Yan? The person I saw in Xianyang was definitely Zhong Yan!"
The uncle looked at Yan's father and said with determination.
How could he have misjudged the appearance of that plump figure.
What's more, on the streets of Xianyang, there were not many pedestrians on the streets because it had just snowed. How could I see the wrong person?
"Zhong Yan is in Xianyang?"
"Impossible! Zihuai must have misunderstood. Then Zhong Yan basically asks someone to bring money back to his family every month. How could he be in Xianyang?"
"That's right! I heard that Shou can get a wife, and there are cattle from Yan's father's family. These are all visible."
"Indeed, it can't be Zhong Yan!"
In the small garden, there was noisy discussion.
In the eyes of the villagers, the uncle's Zhong Yan was definitely dazzled by the wrong person.
Every month, Zhong Yan would ask people from Yicheng to bring money back home. How could it be in Qin?
The State of Qin is far away from the State of Qi. Not to mention asking someone to bring money every month, Zhong Yan alone may not be able to go to the State of Qin.
"Um?"
The uncle was a little puzzled when he heard the villagers' discussion, but fortunately, Zilu came over quickly and told what happened to Zhong Yan.
After knowing everything.
At this moment, the uncle was a little confused.
Could it be that I am really dazzled?
The uncle's departure from Qin was Li Si's method. After all, Li You was Li Si's eldest son. Li Si could not have let someone like his uncle stay with Li You in the first place.
