Qi Jiu grabbed her things and ran: "Goodbye, Grandpa Lu, Happy New Year to Grandpa Lu!"

"You little bastard." Lu Guihe stroked his beard.

Qi Jiu left the clinic, and Tu Fei in the carriage was guarding outside.But this is not the one that Ye Rendong brought home, it was bought by Qi Jiu himself.

"Let's go."

Qi Jiu climbed onto the frame and sat next to Tu Fei.

The carriage was walking slowly, Qi Jiu held the gourd bottle with his chin propped up and turned around. "I went this time, and I won't go in the future."

Tu Fei said: "Ah Jiu, do you want to send some brothers to watch?"

Qi Jiu's cheeks puffed up, and he said slowly: "No need, I can't make any waves."

The carriage rattled along the road in the county town, and halfway through it suddenly turned into another road on the side.That is the way to the village hidden in the mountains.

Among the clouds, a place surrounded by mountains on three sides.

After Qi Jiu and Tu Fei got out of the carriage, they hid the horse, and then opened the vine-grown cave.

The cave is so small that only one person can pass through it.

After passing a narrow place of about five meters, the road gets steeper and steeper.There are jagged rocks and moss everywhere.Because there are few people, it is difficult to walk a few steps.

Go up the steep mountain road.An hour later, the two stood on the hillside.

Among the towering mountains, a scattered and small village appeared here.

Continuing down the mountain road, we arrived at Zhong Lingxiu's natal family, a small village hidden in the mountains.

Qi Jiu and Tu Fei went in and greeted the neighbors in the village familiarly.Arriving at the best house in the mountain village, Qi Jiu opened the door and entered.

"Master!" the man guarding inside said.

"How is the person?" Qi Jiu asked casually, but his eyes were on the sleeping person on the bed.

"Wake up every two days."

Qi Jiu walked in and stood beside the low bed.A child who was about his age was sleeping on the bed, and he looked three or four times as imaginary as himself.

The hatred in Qi Jiu's eyes disappeared, leaving only indifference.

"Hey this one." Qi Jiu handed over the gourd bottle.

For Lu Guihe's medicine, the previous one has already been used up.The chronic poison only needs to be poured little by little, and within a few months, it can turn a person into a fool with lifelong dementia.

Tu Fei curled his lips: "Why bother, just cut it off."

Qi Jiu looked at him: "Life is worse than death, but it is more uncomfortable than going down with a knife."

In the thatched house, Qi Jiu sent people here, which is the place where he was sold by Qi Yao in his previous life.Before the rebellion, he only wanted to go home and see his father.

Unexpectedly, Qi Yao, whom he brought with him as his only relative, exchanged his whereabouts with the imperial court for titles.

Heh, Qi Jiu put aside this disgusting memory with an immature voice. "Let him fend for himself here."

People in this village usually stay in the village to be self-sufficient.

They moved in during the war. Except for a few people of the older generation who knew the way out, the young people could only find the way out by climbing the mountain wall and walking for days and nights.Maybe even be eaten by wild animals on the way.

So far, the only one who has gone out on her own is Yuanxiao's A Niang.

And the path Qi Jiu took was unintentionally discovered when he was running away.Now everyone in the village thinks that they are the ones who have gone through all kinds of hardships to exchange medicinal materials.

But by bartering, Qi Jiu also made a lot of money by the way.

So everyone in the village welcomes them, and is happy to give Qi Yao an environment suitable for "recovery".

"Tu Fei." Qi Jiu came out of his thoughts and waved to Tu Fei.

Tu Fei put down the delicious food he brought in. "25, bring you something to eat."

"There are dried fruits, rice noodles, dried meat, big meat buns, candied haws..."

25 quickly took it and hugged it, with a hippie smile on his face: "Thank you, master."

"After feeding this thing, come back before the heavy snow." Qi Jiu said.

Qi 23 corrected his posture: "Yes!"

"gone."

"Master, go slowly."

"This is the end of the matter." Qi Jiu shook his head, and walked out slowly with his hands behind his back.

Tu Fei guarded Ah Jiu. "Master, you are too..."

Tu Fei looked at Qi Jiu and saw that he was not angry.

"What's the matter?"

"Indecisive?" Qi Jiu patted the big man's arm, "I won't fight for the previous position, just live a good life with my parents."

"I'm a child, even chickens dare not shark, how can I shark people?"

Tu Fei's facial features wrinkled into lumps.He looked at the dead snake thrown away by Qi Jiu.

Lies are not drafted.

"Hurry up, the father at home said that there is access control, and you will be spanked if you are late."

Tu Fei's heart shuddered, he picked up Qi Jiu and sat on his shoulder, quickened his pace and returned by the same way.

A wise and mighty little master cannot be spanked.

Early the next morning, there was a loud pig cry.Qi Jiu flicked the dog's tail grass to chase the pigs.

Kill pigs and make bacon.

On the side of the slope, a large pot was boiling on an earthen stove dug out of the ground.Ye Rendong's second little blackhead ended its one-year life.

The members of the Cheng family gathered in the ancestral house early in the morning.

Ye Rendong's family only invited the closest relatives, Cheng's family and Cheng Langyu's grandma's family.

Men kill pigs and move meat, while wives wash vegetables and cook.The child was led to run back and forth in the yard outside.

Ah Jiu climbed up the tree, and the cubs surrounded below ordered him to pick dates.

In the village where there is no entertainment life, several families get together and just say a few words for a whole day.

Ye Liandong was still quietly sitting by the stove and burning the fire, the heat was dense, leaving a warm orange light on his face.There were noisy voices in his ears, and he was in a great mood to listen to everyone chatting with his chin clenching.

"Ouch! Ah Jiu, come down quickly." Auntie Cheng Anmei's voice came.

Ye Liandong, as the host, took the firewood with tongs and went out to meet the guests.Seeing the child climb up the tree, he said sharply:

"Ah Jiu, come down and play."

Seeing Auntie Cheng Anmei, Ye Rendong smiled and went up to her. "Come here, what gift do you bring?"

"Take it, Auntie's kindness."

Cheng Yuanqing was led by Yuan Xiao, and stared at Ah Jiu with round eyes blinking.

"Zai Zai, I'll give you the biggest one!" Ah Jiu clapped her hands, and hugged Cheng Yuanqing obediently.

Throwing the cloth bag to the other little ones, he waved domineeringly: "You share the rest among yourself."

"I have them here too!" Huzi grabbed the branches and pulled them down, Cheng Shao, who was taller, could pick them by standing underneath.

Cheng Baoer giggled. "Above, above a lot!"

Ye Liandong looked at the jujube tree in the yard that helped him, and said softly: "Don't break it, hit it with a pole."

"Okay!" Huzi ran back to the firewood room to get the pole again.Before reaching the ground with the pole, he was snatched by Cheng Lishen who came in.

"I come!"

"Uncle Lishen! You're back!" Cheng Lishen had been exercising in the town for a year, and the former kid king was quite stable.Wearing a thick padded jacket, he looked much more refined than before.

To put it bluntly, the temperament has also settled a bit.It's a bit of a gentleman's appearance.

Ye Rendong said to Cheng Anmei: "Auntie go in and sit for a while."

"Okay, okay, I know, you're busy." Cheng Anmei was beaming in her new clothes.

She is no longer a poor old lady. She helps out in the town, has things to do, and gets money. She lives a very nourishing life.

Ye Rendong looked at the cubs frolicking around Cheng Lishen, and couldn't help laughing.

"Ah Jiu, don't let your brothers and sisters go to the water, do you understand?"

Qi Jiu hugged Cheng Yuanqing's cub and turned upside down: "I know Daddy!"

When I entered the kitchen, my aunt took the fire place.

Ye Liandong rolled up his sleeves and squatted beside the steaming water basin.

"Our old Cheng's family has quite a few children." Yan Tong raised his eyebrows while rubbing the radish.

Zhong Lingxiu peeled the skin in another basin. "A family is more than one."

"Hey! Brother Dong still want to have another life?"

Ye Liandong's muddy paws for washing radishes froze.I didn't expect to hear a word from myself.With red earlobes, he said, "Look at my husband."

"Pfft," Yan Tong smiled, "I'm afraid it's your husband-in-law who still looks at you."

Seeing Ye Liandong being teased into embarrassment, Yan Tong stopped joking. "You're young anyway, don't worry."

"Hmm." Ye Rendong responded in a low voice.

Zhong Lingxiu quickly shifted the position and changed the radish into a knife, and said to the two busy people on the stove: "Auntie, are you looking at Lishen at home?"

Second Aunt Li Yanzi: "It hasn't even started yet, but the kid from Lishen said that he fell in love with him in town."

"Did you like it? It's still in the town. Why don't we know?"

What Zhong Lingxiu said is correct, Cheng Lishen is helping Zhong Lingxiu and Yan Tong's shop, getting along every day, so there is no time to go out.

I'm afraid it's not a lie.

"You don't know, either?" Du Jinhe asked in surprise. He looked at Li Yanzi, "There were people who came to me and asked if your family has met someone. If there is, I won't say anything."

Seeing everyone looking at him, Li Yanzi smiled like a flower: "Hey, this kid just told me when he came back these days."

Ye Liandong's eyes were starry, he liked to listen.

Du Jinhe: "Who? Which family?"

Standing at the door of the kitchen, Cheng Lishen yelled, "Mother—"

Li Yanzi's thin body turned around flexibly, waved to Cheng Li and said with a smile: "Come on, come on, stand up and tell your sisters-in-law about the person you like."

Cheng Lishen swept across the sisters-in-law and aunts in the kitchen who were all staring at him, and scratched his face embarrassedly: "It's nothing!"

Yan Tong: "Yo, you're still shy!" Such shyness may be real.

Yan Mu jumped out of nowhere and hung on Cheng Li's back: "What! You have a wife!"

He was also anxious, and immediately said: "Brother! I want to get married too!"

Yan Mu yelled at the kitchen, making everyone laugh.

"That's not easy. If you shout at the entrance of the village, there are still half a brother and a girl who like you." Yan Tong looked at his younger brother who hadn't left yet with disgust.

"Hmph, you just despise me!"

"So what!"

"Hmph, let's go, we won't play with them."

Curiosity flashed across Ye Liandong's eyes, but he hasn't said anything yet...

"Lishen! Who is it!" My mother asked from behind, and Cheng Lishen became furious, "Mother! When did I say that!"

"Isn't that what, what Wandou?"

Zhong Lingxiu and Yan Tong were a little puzzled, there was no girl named Wan Dou or brother's old customers in the store.

Cheng Lishen was ashamed and angry: "What I said is that peas are delicious!"

Li Yanzi chuckled: "Really? I made a mistake, I made a mistake!"

Ye Liandong: "Pea? Wandou? It can't be the spicy pea made by my sister-in-law."

That was really delicious.Ye Liandong felt a little greedy.

It's a joke to make a half day.

Du Jinhe was tinkering with the pot inside. Seeing that it was fake news, he became interested again and pulled Li Yanzi and said, "The person who is looking for me is Uncle Nian, who is talking about their natal nephew, a good-looking little brother..."

"Blood is coming!" Outside, Cheng Lishen came in again with a large basin of pig's blood.

"Come here, come here." The blood boiled inside.Du Jinhe immediately said towards the spoon.

"Lishen, do you like it? If not, go and meet the brother your aunt said?"

"What!" Cheng Lishen didn't come in for a while, and then came back again.

Ye Rendong couldn't help laughing when he saw his stupid look with his mouth wide open. "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, are the peas in the store selling well?"

"Okay!"

"Who likes to eat the most?"

Yan Tong patted down a carrot: "Ah Chao!"

Cheng Lishen said almost at the same time, "Ah Chao."

Well, look at Cheng Lishen's frozen figure.

Zhong Lingxiu: "Oh, this is..."

"Who called me!" Lu Chaochao poked his head out from the outside.The little brother was dressed in red, as enthusiastic as a flame.At this time, the smile is like a peony flower, and it is very beautiful: "Brothers, sisters-in-law, are you calling me?"

Ye Rendong saw that Cheng Lishen turned around with almost the same hands and feet.

"Hey..." Cheng Lishen laughed nervously.

"Hey." Ye Rendong, Zhong Lingxiu, Yan Tong and the three elders watched the show.

"Pfft!" Lu Chaochao burst out laughing. "Cheng Lishen, you are stupid, let me stop my sister-in-law."

Ye Rendong: Oh, it's a long way to chase your wife.

Yan Tong and Zhong Lingxiu looked at each other: unrequited love?Poor standing.

But Yan Tong thought of the two uncles of the Lu family, and glanced at Cheng Lishen again.

There may not be any results!

"Come on, don't get in the way, go out and play!" Zhong Lingxiu waved to Cheng Li who was in the way.

Cheng Lishen obediently moved out of the way with his hands and feet.

After a busy morning, the food was served on the table, dry-stir-fried large intestine, hot and sour pork liver, spicy blood, fried lean meat with fungus, stewed radish with big bone...a pork feast is ready.

The Cheng family has a table for men, a table for daughter-in-law, and a table for children.

Three tables filled the entire main room.

Cheng Langyu stood up, holding his wine glass high. "Uncles, brothers and sisters, I, Cheng Langyu, can live a prosperous life this year without your help. In a word, thank you."

"cheers."

"Do it!" Cheng Limin and Cheng Li booed.

The majestic voice was like thunder, rumbling in the main room.The atmosphere at the tables of the men was in full swing.

Ye Rendong sat on Zhong Lingxiu, looking at Cheng Langyu admiringly.

Zhong Lingxiu and Yan Tong were alone. "Come, come, brother Dong has worked hard for a year, and I would like to offer you a toast."

Several elders: "Drink, drink."

Ye Liandong pursed her lips, exuding joy all over her body.He was caught as soon as he took it, and said softly, "I'll just drink a little."

"Well, a little bit."

After two or three cups, Cheng Langyu invited several people to eat.Suddenly, he saw his husband happily following the little piggy.

He smiled, the place was hot, the grandfather and the second uncle toasted each other.

Cheng Limin ran around the table.

Cheng Langyu ate about the same after a few bites, and followed her husband.

"Has Fu Lang been drinking?"

Ye Liandong changed and heard a man's low hoarse voice, his water-colored eyes stared straight at the man, and then he opened his hands: "Sanggong...hug!"

"Hahahaha, ouch, our brother Dong is still clingy at this age."

"Hmph." Ye Rendong hid her head in Cheng Langyu's arms.

Cheng Langyu picked him up and sat him down. "Drank too much?"

Yan Tong spread his family's Cheng Limin's big face plate: "I didn't drink much, three cups."

Ye Rendong vaguely felt someone touch his stomach, he snorted and whispered: "I'm full."

"I know I'm full." Cheng Langyu held Ye Rendong's bowl, "Eat more."

The elders lovingly did not bother the young man, chatting while eating.

Zhong Lingxiu was sitting on the other side, and after a while the children's tables were all down, and her Lantern Festival boy climbed up on her and stared at Ye Liandong. "Uncle Dongdong, do you want to feed me?"

Zhong Lingxiu pushed the little baby away: "Go to find your father, Uncle Dongdong fell asleep after drinking."

Yuan Xiao: "Oh."

"Father, hug!" Yuan Xiao stood beside Cheng Lijun and held up her paw.

"Hold." Cheng Lijun said softly, and then picked up the little cub.

"Look, do you want some more?" Cheng Lijun stroked his belly.

Yuan Xiao leaned on his father, obediently: "If you are full, don't eat."

Here, Cheng Langyu fed Ye Liandong something to eat, and greeted several elders: "Auntie, grandma, auntie, eat slowly, I will take brother Dong to the house."

"Hehe, go, go."

"Brother Dong," Tan Chunliu took a sip of the wine, "The drinking capacity is too small."

The sisters-in-law, except Ye Liandong, can drink a few cups.Especially Zhong Lingxiu and Yan Tong, a large bowl can be directly boring.

While eating, a sudden cool breeze blew outside.

"Is it going to snow in a few days? It's so cold." Zhong Lingxiu sat at the table inside, looking at her husband's pale face.

She got up and took a few steps to bring him to her table.

"I can't say for sure. It usually snows in the twelfth lunar month, but it's only November." Tan Chunliu drank a few sips of wine, warming his whole body.

"If it snows early this year, it might be a bit colder."

The family ate happily, Cheng Langyu put the man back and came out to greet the guests.

"Grandfather, please accept this year's New Year's money." Cheng Langyu handed over the money given to the old couple of the Cheng family.The uncle and the second uncle sighed with emotion. "You've got a family and a business."

"Your life will not be prosperous in the future, kid."

Cheng Zhongshu took the money with a smile, and said slowly, "Then I will accept it."

"It's snowing here during the Chinese New Year, and your family is at the foot of the mountain. Be careful."

Cheng Langyu smiled gently: "I know, Grandpa."

Thinking about what his wife said to him, the second uncle pulled Cheng Langyu and asked, "Ayu, does the house next door to yours belong to the Lu family?"

Cheng Langyu said: "Ah Jiu and the Lu family are half of the family."

"Then do you know that the adults of the Lu family will live here?"

Cheng Langyu glanced vaguely at the process and stood up. "I didn't say that, but I just joked that I would come to take care of the elderly in the future. It is Lu Chaochao who lives here on weekdays."

"got it."

The second uncle smiled.They still have to think about the son's matter, they only know that Lu Chaochao is from the town, but they don't know that Lu Chaochao's father is the county magistrate.

It may be difficult for Cheng Lishen to marry someone back home now.

Unless the two are in love, and Lu Chaochao can even decide on his own about getting married.

Seeing Cheng Langyu's silence, the second uncle sighed in his heart and knew that the possibility was unlikely.He waved his hand casually and said, "I'm just asking."
