Allure of a Country Maiden

The dark night sky is dotted with stars.

"Be gentle, be careful not to knock on the door frame again, or wake up the old man and the others."

When Shen Chengguang and Shen Jingwen were carrying a wooden box out together, they accidentally hit the threshold and made a collision sound.

Lan, who was following the two of them with a big bundle in his arms, reminded them in a low voice.

As soon as Lan finished speaking, Shen Jingwen failed to hold on tightly again and let the box fall to the ground with a loud "crash!"

"Didn't you say you have to be careful?" Lan was annoyed. Why did the more he talked, the bigger the noise became!

"It's not because this box is heavy! Mother, why are you packing so many things? If you are missing anything, just go to Qinghe County and buy it."

"These are my mother's dowry. They are too precious to be thrown away." She threw away those old clothes and items.

After hearing this, Shen Jingwen said nothing more and carried it resignedly.

After carrying one wooden box and going out, the father and son went back into the house to carry the second one.

"Wen'er, do you have these books with you?" Lan asked, pointing to a box of books.

"No!" You're already an official, why are you still carrying books? He has long been tired of reading these books for nearly ten years!

I won’t move it if I don’t take it with me, Lan thought to herself.

"Okay, the last box, hurry up!" Lan said, pointing to a box.

Shen Chengguang and Shen Jingwen finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

Shen Chengguang and Shen Jingwen struggled to carry a large wooden box out.

"ah!"

Lan was walking in front and was frightened by a black figure under the eaves of the door and let out a scream!

Shen Jingwen was frightened by Lan's scream. As soon as he loosened his grip, the box fell to the ground and hit his foot, causing him to scream in pain.

Outside the door, a dark figure walked out from the eaves: "Sister-in-law, I have never done anything wrong in my life, so I won't be surprised if I knock on the door in the middle of the night."

Hearing this voice, Lan's heart beat in shock. Fortunately, it was not a ghost!

Shen Chengguang quickly pulled open the box and freed Shen Jingwen's feet.

"Shen Chengzong, what do you want to do! Don't you know that people can scare people to death?" When Shen Chengzong saw Shen Chengzong standing in the middle of the gate, blocking their way, he couldn't help but scold him!

Shen Chengzong just ignored him! He shouted: "Father! Mother! Dear fellow villagers! Come and take a look! Shen Jingwen's family wants to leave the old man in the village and go to office alone!"

Shen Chengguang rushed forward and covered his mouth!

"Shut up! Are you trying to kill us?"

Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen Zhuang heard the noise and ran out quickly.

He thought a thief had entered the house!

"What's wrong? Is there a thief?" Mr. Shen looked for a hoe in panic, preparing to kill the thief.

Shen Chengzong shook off Shen Chengguang's hand that was covering his own, and said loudly: "Dad, my eldest brother and his family want to leave you behind and secretly go to take office alone! This luggage is all loaded!"

Mr. Shen was stunned after hearing this!

Mr. Shen Zhuang stepped forward and pulled Mr. Lan's hair while cursing and beating her!

The villagers next door woke up when they heard the noise. After hearing what Shen Chengzong said before, everyone saw the carriage at the door and the suitcase on the ground. What else didn't they understand?

Everyone accused Shen Chengguang of having no conscience and was simply a white-eyed wolf!

Shen Chengguang quickly stepped forward and pulled away from his mother.

Shen Jingwen explained: "Don't get me wrong, my parents just didn't want to move the luggage during the day. My grandparents couldn't help but help when they saw it, so they moved it in the middle of the night. When daybreak, we set off with our grandparents! You guys Aren't there two carriages parked outside the gate?"

Everyone was doubtful after hearing this, but in the end they didn't say anything unpleasant.

Mr. Shen didn't believe this. He just asked the boss yesterday when he would take office. He had to ask Mr. Shen Zhuang to pack his luggage in advance. The boss kept mumbling that it would not be so soon.

"Mom, you heard me, we were just heartbroken that you and dad did this, why did you just do it indiscriminately!" After Shen Chengguang rescued the Lan family from the Shen Zhuang family, he couldn't help complaining.

At this time, Lan's hair was messy, and her face was in burning pain with three scratches on her face from Shen Zhuang.

Thinking of the past, she couldn't help crying.

"Bah!..." Mrs. Shen Zhuang was about to curse, but Mr. Shen stopped her: "Fellow folks, I'm really sorry for waking everyone up. Chengguang just told me during the day that we would leave early tomorrow morning, so let's get up early. Yes, I didn’t expect this child to stay up in the middle of the night so that I wouldn’t have to carry my luggage. I’m really sorry for waking everyone up.”

Although Mr. Shen was deeply saddened by what Shen Chengguang's family had done, after all, he was the son he had held in his hands since he was a child and loved him till he grew up. How could he bear to watch him being drowned in everyone's spit!

Shen Chengzong was a little dissatisfied when he saw Mr. Shen helping Shen Chengguang in this way. He was about to say something when he was stopped by Mr. Shen: "Chengzong, after your eldest brother and his family took office, this house..."

After hearing this, Shen Chengzong changed his mind: "Fellow fellow villagers, my eldest brother values ​​​​love and righteousness the most. How could he do such a thing as abandoning his parents and brothers? In the past, we brothers ate chaffy vegetables to provide for our eldest brother and Jing Jing. Wen was admitted as a scholar, promoted, and became a high official. My father always said that when my eldest brother and Jing Wen become officials, he will help us and repay us in any way! I will bear these words in mind! I will wait for my eldest brother. I’m here to repay you! Remember to testify for me!”

He has been jealous of the house built by the third family for Mr. Shen for a long time!

After hearing this, Shen Chengguang wanted to step forward and slap him twice. It was so shameless!

He ruined his good deeds and you still want to repay him yourself? Don’t even think about it!

"Uncles, I'm really sorry for waking everyone up. Jingwen would like to apologize to everyone. Everyone, please go back to sleep!" Shen Jingwen bowed to the villagers.

The county magistrate salutes himself? Everyone was a little flattered!

Everyone praised Shen Jingwen:

"This scholar is different. He is very polite. This is the first time someone has saluted me!"

"Official officials all salute us. Jing Wen is so close to the people, he will definitely be a good official in the future! And he will become bigger and bigger."

"Yes, yes, yes! Let's go home quickly, so as not to prevent the official and his family from packing up to take office!"

…

After hearing the villagers' praise, Shen Jingwen's depression dissipated a little.

After the villagers left, Shen Chengguang and Shen Jingwen breathed a sigh of relief. Then the two people looked at each other, and both saw the bitterness in the other's eyes.

When the sun was high, Dafang's family and his two elders crowded into a carriage and set off for Qinghe County.

We can finally live the life we ​​dreamed of, but unfortunately, no one in the big room feels happy.

Mr. Shen gave birth to four sons in total. When the family was separated, why should Mr. Shen and the Shen Zhuang family be divided into their own families?
