Rebirth: The whole family travels through time together: Fubao Koi is busy eating melons
Chapter 45: Join forces to fight a big battle
Xu Liyun took the cup of warm honey water handed over by Wu Ya and responded softly: "The tiger skin incident has nothing to do with the Hu family. We are all victims of the unpredictable world. There is no need to be overly rigid about etiquette."
Zhang Laoer added with a bit of apology and urgency: "Don't mind, uncle and aunt, we were in a hurry and didn't have time to explain Li Yun's matter to the elders at home. Now that Li Yun has returned safely, we have to go back as soon as possible to explain the whole story so that the family won't worry."
After hearing this, Mrs. Hu felt regretful but also quite understanding. She smiled and told the address, secretly hoping that the Zhang family would bring the children to visit in their spare time to enhance the friendship between the two families.
During the conversation, Mrs. Hu's eyes involuntarily fell on the innocent smile of the little girl many times. Every time they looked at each other, she could receive the child's sweet smile, as fresh and pure as morning dew, which warmed her heart.
Xu Liyun readily accepted the invitation, and her favorable impression of the Hu family grew again.
This sudden incident not only did not cause the Hu family to blame them, but instead the understanding and tolerance they showed made her more determined to further deepen her relationship with the Hu family.
At the moment of parting, Zhang Laoer quietly pulled Hu Bin aside, and his low voice revealed a bit of mystery: "I have a great opportunity, and I want to join hands with you to do something big. If successful, maybe I can find a stable and reliable backer for your Hu family. If you are interested, see you in Zhangjiazhuang in three days."
When Hu Bin heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he quickly nodded in agreement. Then he left reluctantly with his family.
The Zhang family rode in a spacious carriage carefully prepared by Mr. Zhou. The space inside the carriage was enough to accommodate seven or eight people without feeling crowded, and it was extremely comfortable.
As soon as they got on the car, the whole family was filled with gratitude and expressed their sincere gratitude to Zhou Xiucai.
Zhou Xiucai, on the other hand, looked calm and composed. He waved his hands and said with a smile, "That's not true. If you don't have the ability, the help from others will be in vain."
The clever little girl did not show any weakness, and said firmly in her clear voice: "Uncle, you are wrong. You really helped a lot, and it is only natural for us to say thank you."
Mr. Zhou was amused by the innocent words of the child and snorted softly. He gently touched her round and cute little face with his fingertips, his eyes full of doting.
The carriage moved slowly along the country road and finally stopped steadily in front of Mr. Zhou's house.
This place is remote and sparsely populated, so few people pay attention to his whereabouts, let alone discover that he has returned with the secrets of Zhang Laoer's family.
After expressing their gratitude, the six of them got ready and headed towards Zhang's house.
Xu Liyun clenched her fists, silently thinking about how to deal with the Zhang family when she returned home.
Zhang Sanwa was the last one to get off the carriage. Zhou Xiucai's voice suddenly came, with a bit of sharpness and profound meaning: "After all these twists and turns, do you still think that the knowledge contained between the pages of those books is nothing but a source of trouble without any practical benefit?"
Zhang Sanwa's footsteps suddenly paused, as if he was hit by an invisible hammer, and his body froze there.
It stared straight at Mr. Zhou, with confusion and thought in its eyes.
Zhou Xiucai raised his lips slightly, and his tone was full of provocation: "The learned scholars, the hardworking farmers, the sweaty workers, the shrewd businessmen, in this fickle world, which one can stay out of it and seek stability by just avoiding the world? Today is the trouble of the Cheng family, and tomorrow may be another storm. Lord Long will leave Chengguan County one day, and your god of luck will not always favor you. When that time comes-"
At this point, Mr. Zhou paused for a moment, his eyes as sharp as a sword, piercing the deepest part of Zhang Sanwa's heart, "If another crisis comes, how will you save your loved ones? Will you choose to sink together, or be willing to be an ordinary farmer who is oppressed by the powerful and works hard all day? Or, can you pick up the scrolls that were once considered useless, use knowledge as a sword, and become a strong man who controls your own and even others' destiny? All of these require you to think carefully."
After saying this, Mr. Zhou did not stay for long. He made a gesture of invitation and signaled Zhang Sanwa to leave the carriage.
At this time, Zhang Sanwa's family members were unaware of the quiet conversation. They were either holding or supporting each other, busy with their own things, and unaware that Zhang Sanwa was left behind for a short time.
Zhang Laoer was holding his little daughter in his arms, walking at the front of the team, with a look of tenderness and determination on his face.
Xu Liyun held her eldest daughter's hand with one hand and tightly held her second son's clothes with the other.
Just as the family turned the village entrance and was about to step into the familiar yet unfamiliar path, before they could see the gate clearly, suddenly, a surprised and slightly curious voice rang out.
"Hey, isn't this you, the second brother? Didn't you say something happened at home and you all hid away?"
After these words were spoken, the family involuntarily stopped and felt mixed emotions.
They knew very well that the source of these rumors mostly came from Old Lady Zhang.
Before they could open their mouths to explain, more villagers were attracted by the sudden bustle and came out of their homes.
Seeing that the six members of the Zhang family were standing together unharmed, the villagers began to whisper and talk about it.
"Second brother, why are you back again? Didn't you say you were hiding from your creditors? I also heard that you owed a lot of debts outside, and the creditors took your sister-in-law away. You came back fearlessly, aren't you afraid that the creditors will come to your house to find trouble?"
"No, I heard that the second brother killed someone, and Xu Liyun was made to take the blame!"
"Oh my, this is not right. I have sharp ears. It's obviously something dirty they did in private..."
As their conversations intertwined, the villagers' voices became louder and louder.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Laoer shook his head helplessly, with a trace of fatigue and disappointment in his eyes.
Xu Liyun responded with a sneer, which was tinged with sarcasm and chill.
She leaned over and pulled a child next to her, her eyes soft: "Child, tell me, where did these words come from? Who told you that we were arrested by the government?"
Zhang Siwa saw this and quickly took out a candy and handed it to the child. The child's eyes lit up instantly and he said reflexively, "It was Aunt Si who said that. She whispered to my grandmother at the door every night, saying that you guys got into trouble outside and were arrested. She wanted to find the village chief and ask for a division of the family."
Xu Liyun's heart was burning with anger because of the Zhang family's backstabbing.
Especially when I thought that they actually tried to push innocent children into the hands of human traffickers in exchange for dirty money, I felt even more indignant.
At this moment, hearing about their intention to distance themselves from the matter and selfishly divide the family business, Xu Liyun could not help but sneer, with a trace of disdain and heartache flashing in her eyes.
"Okay, let's go back and see what kind of false charges our parents will accuse us of this time!"
Her tone was firm, her eyes sparkling with an unyielding light, and she vowed to seek justice for herself and her child.
