Chapter 445 Little Demon Star Breaks into the Rivers and Lakes 40: The Mysterious Life of Xiaodouzi


"Uncle, Uncle Fourth, Uncle Fifth—"


"Good boy, don't be sad when you have relatives in the future, we should be happy." The middle-aged man patted Xiaodouzi on the back, comforting him, but he couldn't hide his sad expression.


When the villagers saw this, their eyes turned red secretly, and they were happy for them.


Ye Xinong and Xia Zhiye looked at each other, happy for Xiaodouzi, but still had doubts in their hearts.


"Several, you might as well come to my house and sit down."


Uncle Li saw the scene where Xiaodouzi and several people met, and thought that they should have a lot to say, so he invited them aloud.


"Okay." The middle-aged man nodded, and cupped his hands towards Uncle Li, "Then I'll take care of you brother."


Uncle Li shook his head, and led a few people towards his house.


Uncle Li's home is an earthen house, which also looks dilapidated.


"I'm sorry, the house is very simple, everyone can sit down wherever you want." Uncle Li greeted several people.


"No, we are bothering you."


The middle-aged man thanked Uncle Li, and the group found their seats and sat down.


Uncle Li's wife poured water on them and said apologetically:


"I'm sorry, we are a poor family, and we don't have any good tea, so I'm neglecting it."


"Sister, you're welcome, we'll just drink plain water." The middle-aged man could tell that he was from a wealthy family, but he didn't have the slightest arrogance of being rich, and Ye Xinong and Xia Zhiye admired that humility .


"Then you talk first, let's go outside."


Uncle Li nodded towards them and left with his wife.


There were only those few people left in the room, as well as Xiaodouzi, Ye Xinong, and Xia Zhiye.


Although others talk about family affairs, it is reasonable to say that Ye Xinong and Xia Zhiye should leave.But they didn't leave. Since Xiaodouzi regarded her as his master, of course she had to be the master of his affairs.


"Uncle, Uncle Fourth, Uncle Fifth, this is my young lady, and my future son-in-law, Young Master Xia."


Xiaodouzi took the lead in introducing Ye Xinong and Xia Zhiye to the middle-aged men. Ye Xinong had already introduced his name just now, but they didn't know that they were Xiaodouzi's masters before, but they seemed to be nice people .


"Thank you Miss Nong'er and Mr. Xia for taking care of Xiaodouzi."


The middle-aged man and the other two men bowed their hands towards Ye Xinong and Xia Zhiye, and thanked them.


Ye Xinong shook his head and smiled slightly:

"I don't know the surnames of the uncle and the two uncles?"


"This is Zhang Chengqiao. The fourth brother Zhang Chengheng and the fifth brother Zhang Chengyu."


Zhang Chengheng and Zhang Chengyu also nodded to Ye Xinong and the others to say hello.


"From what Uncle Zhang just said, Xiaodouzi's father is your second brother, right?" Ye Xinong looked at Zhang Chengqiao.


"Exactly."


"Then forgive me for asking, why did your second brother appear in this small village? It seems to be separated from you?" Ye Xinong's question was exactly what Xiaodouzi wanted to ask.


"Uncle, Xiaodouzi also wants to know." Judging from their appearance, it seems that their family background is quite rich, so why do my parents live in this small remote place?And if it wasn't so, maybe they wouldn't have been flooded at all?Xiaodouzi couldn't help thinking about it, this has always been a pain in his heart.


Zhang Chengqiao, Zhang Chengheng, and Zhang Chengyu sighed before Zhang Chengqiao explained:


"The thing is like this. Cheng Yao was originally the rebellious one among our brothers. In his year, he met Xiaodouzi's mother. She is a girl from an ordinary family. Although she is gentle, she has a pair of greedy parents. When the second brother told his parents that he was going to marry Xiaodouziniang, he was opposed by his grandmother and grandfather. At that time, the Zhang family was ruled by his grandmother and grandfather. They were always strong, and no one dared to refute their opinions. In order to separate the two, The grandfather ordered the second brother to be locked up. Later, the second brother managed to escape and eloped with Xiaodouzi's mother. Since they left, we have not been able to find them until the grandfather and grandmother passed away. Only then did I regret that I should not have opposed my second brother and Xiaodouziniang back then, and left a last wish for us to find my second brother no matter what, but I never thought that when we found it, it would be too late..."


Zhang Chengqiao's words made Xiaodouzi's eyes turn red. It turned out that their parents ran away from home because of love.In memory, they are indeed very affectionate, mother does needlework, father goes out to farm, the female leads the inside, the male leads the outside, harmonious and beautiful...


"More than a month ago, when we told our parents about our second brother and second sister-in-law, my mother fainted from grief." Zhang Chengheng also spoke.


"Later she woke up and told us to inquire more about what happened in the past ten years after the second brother left, that's why we are here today." Zhang Chengyu also interjected.


"Yeah." Zhang Chengqiao nodded, looking at Xiaodouzi with relief, "Maybe God has a good eye, let us meet the second brother's child, if mother knows the news, she will be very happy... ..."


"Uncle—"


Xiaodouzi felt the love from her relatives, and her eyes turned red again.


"Good boy, come home with us. Grandma and grandpa are looking forward to you at home." Zhang Chengqiao looked at Xiaodouzi and said lovingly.


"I--"


Xiaodouzi looked at Ye Xinong. Although he was very touched by his relatives now, he was used to being with the young lady and the future uncle at this time. loved ones?


"Uncle Zhang, I don't know where your residence is?" Ye Xinong nodded comfortingly at Xiaodouzi, and then asked Zhang Chengqiao.


"Yangzhou Zhang Mansion." Zhang Chengqiao replied.


"Yangzhou Zhang Mansion?" Ye Xinong was slightly surprised, and then asked again, "But the Zhang Mansion is in charge of the largest salt transportation in the south of the Yangtze River?"


"Exactly."


Ye Xinong and Xia Zhiye looked at each other, but they didn't expect Xiaodouzi to be a descendant of one of the three major families in the south of the Yangtze River.
