Reborn under the White Mountain

Chapter 43

Maybe God didn't want Mrs. Wu and the others to leave. The rain had been pattering for three days before it stopped, and the road was too muddy after the rain, so they waited for another two days before the group set off for home.

Before leaving, Xue Jinyu brought Fang Shi back with a lot of things, but Fang didn't want them, "Jinyu, we're not here to play the autumn wind. You got so many things, we won't come here in the future." Fang doesn't want to always ask for things from her sister's house.

"Eldest sister, these things are my thoughts. Besides, if there is no Yuxian this time, I really don't know what troubles will happen? Just treat it as my work, Xie Yuxian. Elder sister, don't refuse." Xue Jinyu explained.

Wu also persuaded, "Biyun, you don't have to refuse. If Jinyu gives it, you can take it. It's just some clothes fabrics, fresh melons and fruits. Go back and make two sets of clothes for a few children. Let's eat some of those fruits on the way, and give the rest back to our acquainted neighbors."

"Mother, it doesn't take so much, our car can't fit at all." Fang said with a wry smile.

"Sister, don't worry. I'll let Xue Ping and Xue An go. One car will take people, and the other will pull things alone. There are also things for mother here." All set and waiting. "Don't be too anxious to go back, go slowly, and you must take good care of grandma. If there is any mistake, you can figure it out for yourself." This is said to Xue Ping, Xue An and Zixuan. Let Zixuan follow, mainly In order to take care of Fang.

"Don't worry, my lord, it's not just once or twice that the servant has left this road." Zixuan agreed with a smile.

Everyone got into the car and looked back. Xue Jinyu was still standing at the gate of Xue's residence. Mrs. Wu waved him to go back.Xue Ping waved his whip, the horse let go and ran out of Fucheng.

In the carriage, Yuxian, Xiaosi and Xiaowu were reluctant to part with each other, "Mother, brother Bowen asked me to come back when he has time, and he wants to learn how to play a slingshot with me." Xiaosi said to his mother.

"Then do you let them come to our house when they are free?" Fang asked with her son in her arms.

"Well, as I said, my cousin said that if we split up, he would come to live with us for a month." Bowen had been to Tong's house before, and Qin's family started to piss off just two days after they lived there. The old man also said : "Send the child back after staying for two days, just in case something goes wrong here." That's why Bowen said to wait until after the separation.

"Fourth brother, don't worry, there will be such a day, when the time comes, all three cousins ​​will come to our house. You can stay as long as you want, no one cares." Yu Xian assured Xiaosi.

"Well, there must be such a day." The two brothers said together.

Because the return trip was not in such a hurry, it was not as rushed as when we came.A group of people left in the morning, took a break when it was hot at noon, left in the afternoon when it was cooler, and found a farmer to live in at night.In this way, it was not until the morning of the third day that he returned to Xijiang Village. He sent Mrs. Wu home first, and then went to Yanjiang Village.

It was almost noon when we arrived at Tong's house. The Fang family and others got out of the carriage. Xue Ping and Xue An helped to move all the things out of the carriage. Zi Xuan didn't come, she was at home with Wu family. "Grandma, the little ones are here. We'll go back to the old lady right now, and we'll go back tomorrow." Xue Ping stepped forward and said to Fang.Fang asked the two of them to finish their meal before leaving, but the two refused, got into the carriage and drove the horse and left.

The movement outside was naturally heard by the Tong family. Tong Yunsong and Da Lang ran out in a hurry, and it turned out that it was Fang and the others who had returned. "Sister Yun, you're back. How's the journey going? Thanks for your hard work." Tong Yunsong happily walked up to his wife, and carefully looked at his wife's face. Fortunately, she wasn't too haggard.

"Brother Song, I'm fine. Hurry up and move these things into the house. Jinyu insisted on giving them. I said I didn't want them, but I couldn't resist him." Fang was naturally delighted to see her husband and son. "Da Lang Erlang, Xiao San, come and help."

At this time, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Zhou also came out, "Sister-in-law is back, yo, did you bring this from Fucheng? Last time Zixuan and the others brought really good fruits, but I asked my mother to give them away No, the family didn't eat much." Zhou said as soon as he saw several baskets of fruit.

"Brothers and sisters, don't worry, I'll keep it for you this time, so that you can all eat it, let's go, let's go in and see our mother." Fang said, and asked Tong Yunsong to take it and give it to Qin and the two. The things prepared by the sister-in-law have entered the house, and Dalang and the others have moved back to the Westinghouse for what was left by their own house.Fang didn't keep those fresh melons and fruits, anyway, he couldn't let them go, so it was enough to save some for Dalang to try.

After entering the east room, Mrs. Tong and Mrs. Qin were sitting on the kang, "Father, mother, my daughter-in-law is late." Mrs. Fang stepped forward to salute.

"Hmph, do you still know how to come back? Don't you know what's going on at home?" Qin's face was sullen, not in a good mood.

"It has been raining for the past few days, and the road is not easy to walk. We waited for the road to improve before heading back." Fang explained softly, "Father, mother, my daughter-in-law brought something back for your elders," she said, taking something from Tong Yunsong. I started to take things out of the house. "Parent and mother kept one of these two pieces of satin to make clothes, which happened to be worn by the fourth child when they got married. These are two boxes of tea, which Jin Yu brought back from the south, and kept them for guests. These two boxes of snacks are famous in Fucheng. From the shop here, you two elders should try it. There are also some fruits, it’s hot this summer, your second elders can eat it to cool off.” Fang piled a pile of things on the kang.Qin's face looked better now, but her eyes were still looking at the remaining things.

"His second aunt, these are for you, this dark blue one is for my second brother, the rose purple one is for you, and the remaining few light-colored ones are for Junjie and the others." What Fang gave to Liu was cotton cloth, not whole horse. "There are still these fruits, save some for Junjie, children are always greedy. There is also a box of candy, which is also for the children." Mrs. Fang gave Mrs. Liu all the things from the second family's family.

"His third aunt, these are for you." The things for Zhou's are similar to Liu's, except that Zhou's fabric is replaced with rose red, Yuyan's is a piece of pink, and the rest are fruits and sugar.Zhou looked at the things so happily that he couldn't close his mouth.

"Fourth, come here, and my sister-in-law brought you some. You can keep these two pieces of cloth and let your mother make two clothes for you. If you want to get married, you need two new clothes. Keep these two quilts for you. Make a quilt." Naturally, Fang will not lose the fourth child.

"Thank you sister-in-law. It's hard for sister-in-law to be so thoughtful. She even prepared the quilt." Tong Yunhua is a simple and honest person. When she saw the bright red brocade embroidered with dragon and phoenix patterns on the quilt, she knew that just two quilts cost a lot of money. , thank you quickly.

Seeing that the things were divided, Qin's face sank again, "Why don't you have two sisters, and one sister's things? Why did you forget about them?"

Fang was taken aback, "Mother, these were all given by Bilian and Jinyu. The gifts from each family were chosen by Bilian, and Yunlian and the others were not prepared."

"Hmph, you black hearted person, you took all those things back into the house by yourself, so you can't give them some out of it? It's really poisonous." After hearing Fang's words, Qin was even more unwilling. She was not happy about being in charge of giving things away, because she didn't have a mother-in-law in her eyes, and she happened to have no three daughters, so she took the opportunity to mess around.

"Ahem, old lady, do you still have the face? The eldest daughter-in-law didn't buy it herself, she bought it from her sister or brother-in-law, can she still give it to Yunlian and the others? Stop talking, put the things away, It's time to eat. Second daughter-in-law, is the meal ready?" Mr. Tong couldn't see it anymore, so he opened his mouth to tell Qin Shi. "Boss daughter-in-law, after lunch, go back and have a rest. The journey is enough. I will rest in the kitchen for two days."

"Hey, Dad, let's go out to eat then." Fang agreed, and it was quite enough to drive for two and a half days after returning home.

After eating at noon, Yuxian called her brothers into the house, brought back from Xue's house, and gave them all the things Xue Bowen had given them.

"Brother, this is a set of knives that Brother Bowen gave you. It is reserved for you to carve those tree roots. I don't know what is mixed with this knife. Anyway, it is sharp and durable, better than your father's dagger. There are too many." A set of knives, ranging from large to small, has a total of twelve pieces, as well as small chisels and small hammers. The workmanship is very meticulous, and the materials are also good. Da Lang likes it very much.

"Second brother, this is given to you by cousin Boyuan. He didn't get those antique jades this time, but I guess this one is more expensive. It's a copybook from Liu Gongquan in the previous dynasty." Yu Xian took out a box, which contained a copybook. Copybooks seem to have a long history.

Erlang took out the scroll and looked, "It's the manuscript of "The Stele of the Mysterious Pagoda". My God, this thing is hard to find. I don't know where my cousin got it?" Erlang held the copybook, loving it like a treasure.

"I heard that when Duke Liu passed away, his family buried this copybook with him. Later, the tomb robber stole it, and it fell into the hands of a scholar. Later, when the scholar died, her family sold it. The second cousin got it from a friend." Yuxian told her second brother what Bo Yuan told her.

"Boyuan has a heart, so the second brother must keep this thing well." Erlang said solemnly.

"Brother San, here's your gift." Xiaosi and Xiaowu carried out a long brocade box and put it in front of Xiaosan. Xiaosan opened it and saw that it was a dagger.The sword is two feet long, the sheath is made of shark skin, and it is decorated with precious stones.With a golden mouth and gold ornaments, he drew out the sword, and immediately the cold light shone brightly, as cold as autumn water, "Good sword!" Xiaosan praised sincerely, sheathed the sword and put it away. "Boyuan's gift is too expensive, and our little uncle doesn't care about him. It's no exaggeration to say that these two things are worth a thousand dollars. He is only an eight-year-old child, how dare he buy such a good thing? "Little San was a little worried about Bo Yuan.

"Third brother, it's okay. My uncle has seen these two things. My uncle also said that the sword is given to a hero. If the third brother can worship a famous teacher, he will achieve extraordinary things in the future. He should be worthy of this sword." Yuxian said Xue Jinyu's words that day I told my third brother.
