As a result, the news of Zhang Ji's return spread as if he had grown wings. From the old village chief who couldn't walk, to the children who had just learned to walk, all ran to the village.

The Zhang family, which was already more lively than other places, suddenly became more lively.Those who came to help pick mulberry leaves or feed silkworms also ran out, enclosing the yard that dialect Zhang Ji had enlarged and built the year before, and it was almost impossible to stand.

No one else expected that the messenger from the town who announced the good news came back a few days after he came to announce the good news.This is the first person in their village to pass the exam for the first time in generations, and he is still so young!When the village head and the old people received the news before, they said that it was time to celebrate and worship the ancestors, waiting for Zhang Ji to come back.

Just didn't expect it to be so fast.

When the old man Zhang was happy, he sent his youngest son to Chenjiacun to buy a piece of pork and came back. He happened to hear that someone was in a hurry and killed him in a hurry——Zhang Ruixiang just got into the car and left without saying a word. Chen Daniu chased him out and followed.

He has just come back today since he went to Fucheng with Zhang Ji. He hasn't returned home yet. This time he just wants to help and take a look at the house.I looked at Zhang Ji's house before and didn't see the little girl helping the silk here. I heard the news that my brother-in-law took her to the town to see a doctor two days ago when she was pregnant, and went back to the village along the way.

It's just that the carriage of two people was stopped at the entrance of the village.

The old village chief stroked his gray beard and frowned, looking at old man Zhang, and Zhang Ruizhong and Chen Daniu who had been dragged back by force, with displeasure on his face: "Second Zhang, you are not doing this properly!"

Old man Zhang and his son were taken aback.

The old village head still had a grimace, "This matter is not only a matter of your second brother Zhang's family, but also a major matter of our old Zhang family. We have made an agreement before, and when the step-boy comes back, we will take care of you." Come from the village. What is it that you ask your family Ruizhong to go to another village to buy pigs? You go and ask someone to tell your fourth master, first kill their pig, and we will open a ancestral temple to worship our ancestors."

"Yes, Dad."

"Big Brother, how did this make..."

Before the old man Zhang stopped, he was interrupted by a black and thin old man, who grabbed the old man Zhang's arm with an unhappy expression: "Brother Zhang is looking down on me, Zhang Si, or something? I don't want a single animal to let our family rub Rubbing off the celebration of your family's master Juren?"

"No no! What are you talking about, fourth? Is Zhang Er that kind of person? It's just... It's not easy to raise your pigs for only one year. Didn't you mean that you will raise them for your kid to marry next year? So I just..."

Zhang Siyi felt relieved when he heard the dark face, and waved his hand, "It's okay! This is my kid who knows it's for our stepboy, no, Master Juren used it to kill pigs and worship ancestors, and he definitely agrees. Right, Juren master?"

The crowd and movements blocking the gate have long attracted the attention of everyone in the yard, not to mention Zhang Ji and dialect as the host. The two have come to the front, and of course they understand the ins and outs of the matter.

"Then thank you fourth grandpa for your kindness." Zhang Ji cupped his hands with a smile, and said warmly, "But you are all Zhang Ji's elders, so it's better to continue to call the younger generation by their names."

"Haha, good good good good good good good good good good good good!" Several old people said yes with a smile, and they were satisfied in their hearts.

Hearing the news, more and more people came running, and with the words of the old village head, the daughter-in-laws in the village spontaneously started to gather food. The vegetables in the vegetable field have not sprouted yet, but it is not difficult They, since they learned how to grow winter vegetables and pickled sauerkraut from the Zhang family, each family still has a little leftover, no one hides them, and they bring them, plus the freshly sprouted wild vegetables It's sharp, but we can still get a table together.

Compared with Zhang Ji's family, the eldest Zhang's family that came in line seemed a bit deserted.

Mrs. Zhang stood on her tiptoes and looked to the left, turned her head hard and gave a "bah", and muttered sourly: "Why are you so proud? I really thought that the whole town didn't know the same thing. What's the trouble?" of!"

"Mom, where did you put the fabric for Brother Qi's new clothes? I want to sew him a new summer dress."

A soft call came from the back room, and Zhang Liushi looked a little better, looked into the main room and replied: "Just put it on the cabinet in the back room, you look through it."

"Yeah." A slim figure appeared at the door, the young woman glanced at the noisy side, bit her lower lip lightly, and persuaded softly: "Mother, don't worry about it, Brother Qi will still have Dad in two days." When we come back, our house will be even more lively.

Earlier, my elder brother sent a letter saying that Brother Qi and the others got very good grades in the exam this time, and our family has two scholars, so don't worry about them and let them be happy for a few days. "

Hearing her words, Zhang Liu's heart was still rather ironed, but he still couldn't get enough of the excitement and joy next door, so he couldn't do anything about it.

"Mother, I will send two chickens over later, and bring some of the cloth that was newly delivered earlier."

"Why... well, mother knows. Be careful, Chunyan. When Qi'er comes back, you two will have a good time and give us a big fat grandson as soon as possible. We will be mad at those hot-eyed ones."

Hearing this, Zhang Chunyan shyly lowered her face slightly, responded softly, and stood at the door for a while before turning back to the room.Staying behind while muttering something like "cheap Zhang Ji, these bastards" or something, while preparing the things my daughter-in-law said, I plan to send the things over when the meeting starts, so that it happens that the whole village is there Keep those people's mouths open--it's really like their big family is stingy.

Although she really didn't want to give things over there, she didn't want to show some people a joke for nothing.

As for the aunt and cousin who came late and dressed up when the whole village was preparing to take their seats, Zhang Ji in dialect didn't say anything, and still welcomed them in with a smile and arranged them at the table of the aunt.

"I'm sorry, I was busy at home just now, so I'm sorry for coming here in a hurry." Zhang Liu said with a smile, "Yan'er was not feeling well just now, and I was a little worried so I came late. After all, Qi'er was When I left, I was required to take good care of him. If something happened to my body and I waited for Qi'er to come back, how could I explain to him, haha.

Here~ There is nothing good at home, this is a new product from Yan'er's natal family. Seeing the color is so bright, I will make clothes for Brother Yan. Don't dislike the ones given by my step-son, Brother Yan. "

At that time, my aunt was talking with other sister-in-laws in the village who were helping to serve dishes and set up dishes, and I almost gave them both a blank stare on the spot.

Zhang Xiulian even wanted to tear off her face on the spot, pretending to be indifferent, and looking like alms, looking at the chicken coop and cloth handed over, if there were no other people present, she really wanted to persuade her nephew and the others Don't accept it.

Who knows if after accepting these three melons and two dates this time, she will come up with some weird things later. In short, when it comes to silk, she firmly disagrees with her nephew and they hand it over to Zhang Chunyan's natal family for sale.

"Thank you." Fang Yan looked at the thing handed to him, thanked him with a light smile, and took it. After changing hands, Zhang Daniu took it and put it on the square table in the corner, and then went to other tables to help.

Seeing Chen Daniu's actions, Zhang Liushi and Zhang Chunyan's expressions changed slightly, but they seemed to have improved a lot in the past few years, and soon recovered their expressions.

Zhang Chunyan looked at the tall and handsome Zhang Ji, with a complicated look in her eyes, she smiled unnaturally, and said softly, "Congratulations on your high school."

Zhang Ji only glanced at the two of them, with a distant yet polite smile: "Thank you. My cousin and uncle should be here in the next two days, so don't worry, auntie.

Yan'er, come with me to toast the village grandfather and the others, and just ask them to help you taste the mulberry wine you brewed. "

"Okay." Dialect nodded, then slightly nodded to Zhang Liu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, "Excuse me."

"Little bunny..."

"Mother." Zhang Chunyan tugged lightly, stopped Zhang Liushi's cursing inwardly, and helped her to sit down, but her downcast eyes concealed the unwillingness, annoyance and doubts inside.

***

At the same time, Fucheng was thousands of miles away.

The scholars who gathered here because of rushing for the exam slowly gathered and left after the results were released.Fucheng, which has been bustling and crowded for more than a few months, also regained its tranquility.

Of course, compared to other places, this place is still very lively.

In front of a small house, a very ordinary carriage in this prefecture parked quietly at the gate of the small courtyard, and an honest young coachman shrank slightly and leaned against the rut, drowsy.

He received the news from the master's family that he came to pick up the master's family back home today, fearing that he would not be able to make it in time, he drove over early and waited, but it was almost noon, and there was still no movement inside.

However, it is said that last night, because of the good exam, the host family hosted a banquet in a certain restaurant for a lot of classmates who were on the same list. Maybe they didn't get up so fast after drinking too much.

It's just that it's getting late at this time. If you don't leave quickly, you will have to sleep in the wilderness if you don't make it to the next village before dark.He is not in the way, but the two masters are both scholars, with delicate skin and tender flesh, so I am afraid that they will not be able to bear the hardship.

The young coachman sniffled and jumped out of the car hesitantly, intending to call the door to remind him.In this season, the morning is still a bit cold, not to mention that he has never dared to hide from the wind because he was afraid that the host family would come out, so he had a runny nose.

I looked around and found that this place is usually rented to the scholars who come to take the exam to stay. It was relatively quiet, but now that people are almost gone, it is even more deserted.

I mustered up the courage to approach the door and listen carefully. Unexpectedly, there was a bang inside, the sound of something falling to the ground, and then another bang.

Crisp, like hitting the dough.

"You little bitch! You! How dare you—"

"ah!"

An earth-shattering scream frightened the coachman and bumped into the door without paying attention, and miraculously, the courtyard door didn't know whether he slammed it too hard, or it was not secure at all, or the owner forgot to fork it last night. The door opened slowly with a babble, and the situation inside was immediately revealed.

Two disheveled men and women fell to the ground in embarrassment, and the marks on the naked skin of the young woman were clearly visible in the sunlight.

At this moment, he was lying on the lap of the oldest man standing next to him, crying heartbrokenly, calling out "Master was wronged".At this moment, the man's chest and abdomen were heaving and shaking, pointing at the young man with trembling fingers, he was too angry to speak.

The coachman opened his mouth in shock. If he remembered correctly, those two men were his masters, and the young woman seemed to be the concubine of the master?

zhangjiacun

It wasn't until the scene came that the lively day of the Zhang family gradually subsided, and the villagers moved back to their tables, chairs, and bowls one after another. In the end, only two or three women who were close to Zhang Xiulian and Zhang Luoshi were left to help them clean up. The endgame of the yard.

Dialect was supposed to clean up together, but was driven back by Zhang Xiulian.

"You don't need to do these things. The step-son just came back and drank again. You should help boil some water for him to wash. Ai Ye, I have prepared it for you too. Let's have a good rest tonight."

"That's right, it's good for us to come here, Brother Yan, go and do what you should do."

The others also tried to persuade him that the dialect was nothing at all, but just as he turned around, he heard their teasing and joking words in a low voice, and he was as embarrassed as a thunderbolt and hurried back to the room.

Here Zhang Ji happened to take off his long gown and put on his undershirt. He wanted to change into a light one, but he heard slightly messy footsteps behind him. Turning around, he recognized who it was at a glance.

Zhang Ji took off his clothes and paused, "What's wrong?"

Although the light was already very dim, Zhang Ji's white silk undergarment was still conspicuous in the dim light. Fang Yan only realized what he was doing after hearing what this man said.

"Are you planning to take a bath?" Dialect asked naturally, he felt that he must have been disturbed by those aunts and ladies, and that's why he reacted improperly when he saw the other party's outfit, "Why don't you turn on the lights when it's so dark ?” As he spoke, he went to touch the fire pocket on the window sill to try to fuel the lamp.

In the dark, Zhang Ji raised his eyebrows slightly, hearing the rustling sound from over there, he only responded vaguely.

Dialect also didn't pay attention to the previous incident, and because the aunt and the others were leaving to greet them outside, they were busy responding to them again, so they didn't pay attention to the movement behind them.When he finally touched the fire and turned around to light the lamp, he was startled by the white shadow in front of him.

"You, when did you..." leaned over?

I don't know if it's related to the darkness, but dialect subconsciously raised his hand to block the opponent's chest, and his heart was beating loudly, not to mention that the man bent down slightly and leaned his face down. That feeling made dialect really nervous a handful.

"you……"

As soon as he uttered a word, a low laugh sounded in his ears, and then Zhang Ji's face also receded, and his body straightened, but he was still blocked between the door panel and the window wall.

I just felt that the top of my head was lightly pressed, and when I raised my face in confusion in the dialect, I heard Zhang Jidai say with a smile: "Well, I haven't seen you in a year, I've grown taller, but I haven't eaten well, have I?" Suddenly, he was surrounded by an arm, and was gently brought into the opponent's arms. Before he could react, his feet were weighed off the ground.

Dialect: "..." He really shouldn't have too high expectations of someone!

Just as he was about to struggle, his feet fell to the ground again, and then the familiar force fell on his cheeks, "What? Are you angry?"

"Who dares to make Master Juren angry?" Hearing the doting tone of the other party coaxing the child, before he came to his senses, he opened his mouth to speak in dialect, but before he could get annoyed, he heard the man's laughter again.

"What? Did I say something wrong?"

"No, no." Zhang Ji's answer was still with a smile, staring at the dialect in front of him, only focusing on his own dialect, but his eyes clearly reflected the corners of this person's mouth that bulged slightly unconsciously when he was angry, and the special expression when he stared at others. bright eyes...

A sudden impulse surged up in his heart, he wanted to see his appearance clearly, instead of the memory that flashed in his mind after leaving for more than a year, no matter how clear it was, it would be different.

The action was faster than the heartbeat, and when he came back to his senses, he found that he had gently pinched the opponent's slightly thin chin and lifted it up. In order to see the expression on the opponent's face more clearly, he instinctively lowered his head and moved closer.

Then--

Breathing, close at hand, clearly audible.

Just a little closer and he could touch his.
