From the family treasure tree to build an eternal family

Chapter 77 Reunion
On the street in the county town, outside the door of Yun'an Liquor Store.

Several broken wine jars were scattered in front of the door, with wine spilled all over the ground, and there were two big, wet black rats.

"Manager Xu, just tell me what to do! We were halfway through drinking when we discovered a rat in the wine jar. It was so disgusting that we almost vomited all our food from last night."

"You guys are so careless when it comes to brewing wine. You didn't even notice a rat this big got in?"

"Compensation, you must pay!"

Several burly men with their arms folded blocked the store door tightly.

Xu Xiaoyun's face darkened. He knew these people were deliberately looking for trouble. The most likely person behind this was the Pan family, who owned the "Wu Gu Liang Liquor Store."

His family's business was booming, but the one that was most affected was the Pan family.

Speaking of it, the Xu family and the Pan family have a bit of bad fate. The in-laws that Wang Qian introduced to Xu Xiaoxia were from the Pan family.

Although the Pan family was not happy with the expansion of Yun'an Tavern's business before, they were wary of Xu Xiaoyun's third brother, Xu Xiaogou, a congenital warrior.

Recently, a piece of news has been spreading all over the city: Fan Yang is about to obtain official status, and the Tongbi Sect has suppressed all the martial arts schools in the city so much that they can't raise their heads.

The sister of Fan Lei, the leader of Tongbi Sect, is the wife of the second son of the Pan family.

This relationship gave the Pan family the confidence to cause trouble. In addition, the Pan family had been operating in Tonggu County for many years, and their connections, both overt and covert, were much stronger than Xu Xiaoyun's.

Xu Xiaoyun had a dark face. Similar incidents had happened two or three times recently, which had greatly affected his family's business.

"Hey, you guys put that rat in there yourself, and now you're accusing me of that? There's no way there's a rat in the wine I brew!"

"What does Shopkeeper Xu mean by this? Are we trying to extort money from you?"

"I don't like to hear that. I'm a well-known person in the city. How can I drink wine soaked in rats just to extort a few bucks from you?"

"Everyone, come and see, and judge for yourself."

A few strong men shouted and attracted a lot of people to watch.

Perhaps someone could see that they were deliberately causing trouble, but since the Xu family was involved in such trouble, those customers who originally planned to buy wine could only avoid it.

Xu Xiaoyun couldn't argue, he knew that only his third brother could help with this matter: "You two decide what to do."

He just wanted to get rid of these people first.

"We won't leave unless you compensate us with two hundred taels of silver."

"If I drink a bowl of rat-soaked wine, I'm afraid I'll have nightmares for three months straight and won't be able to eat. Two hundred taels of silver, not a tael less!"

Hearing that the other party was asking for 200 taels of silver as compensation, before Xu Xiaoyun could say anything, a voice came from behind him: "Are you crazy? A jar of wine is only one tael of silver, and you want 200 taels?

Who gave you such courage?"

Zhang Caixia came over angrily.

Xu Xiaoyun quickly stopped her. She was pregnant and couldn't get angry. "Don't worry about it. I'll handle it."

"What can you do about it? Our family has been bullied to the point of being bullied."

Zhang Caixia was almost crying with anger. Her family was just doing business honestly, so how could they have provoked this group of people?

"I'll talk to my third brother about this."

Xu Xiaoyun said helplessly.

"That's all we can do. If your third brother can't do it, there's still his mother's family."

At this time, Zhang Caixia thought of the benefits of the Xu family.

In fact, Xu Xiaoyun didn't want his third brother to seek help from the Fu family, because he knew that Xu Xiaogou was a bit of a gigolo in the Fu family. If he troubled the Fu family because of the Xu family's affairs, Xu Xiaogou would be even more embarrassed.

----

At this time, the young man's clear voice came from outside the crowd.

"Move aside~~"

Xu Xiaohou squeezed into the crowd and said, "Fourth brother, Dad asked me to tell him that my eldest brother is back."

Big Brother is back?!

Hearing this, Xu Xiaoyun was stunned for a moment, and quickly asked: "Have you seen my brother? Where is he?"

"Not yet. Someone sent a message home saying that my eldest brother has returned. Then my father asked me to come and call you, my third brother, and my second sister."

Hearing this, Xu Xiaoyun told the shop assistant to close the shop without saying anything: "Close the shop. We will not be open today."

The strong men still tried to stop him: "That won't do, Shopkeeper Xu, we have to resolve our issues."

Xu Xiaoyun was in no mood to pay attention to them: "Didn't you want two hundred taels of silver? Here you go, hurry up and leave."

As he said this, he threw out two silver notes worth one hundred taels of silver.

This surprised the men. That was two hundred taels of silver, and many ordinary families would find it difficult to save two hundred taels of silver in their entire lives.

"Caixia, let's go home." Xu Xiaoyun couldn't wait and just wanted to go home as soon as possible.

"go home?"

Zhang Caixia wondered, which home should she return to?

"Go back to the village. Bring Ah Chao with you and let him meet his uncle. Oh, go pack up first. I'll go buy some things to welcome Big Brother."

Xu Xiaoyun usually lived a very frugal life, but when his elder brother came back, he had to live lavishly.

He bought a lot of chicken, duck, fish, meat, fruits, vegetables and other ingredients, and also invited a chef from the city to go to Baihe Village with him to cook.

Two carriages rushed to Baihe Village. One carriage carried Xu Xiaoyun's family, and the other was filled with food and a skilled chef.

At the same time, Xu Xiaohou also informed Xu Xiaogou.

Xu Xiaogou also took a carriage and rushed back to Baihe Village with Fu Zhiyi and his two sons.

----

A restaurant in the city.

After the banquet, Xu Xiaoniu stood at the door. In front of him was the horse given to him by the county magistrate, and in his arms was a bottle of five Qi and Blood Pills.

Lu Yisong originally planned to give him an Xiantian Pill.

After all, Xiantian Dan is a real elixir. Lu Yisong doesn't have it, so he can only settle for the second best and give Xu Xiaoniu a few Qi and Blood Pills to help him break through Xiantian.

Xu Xiaoniu was still confused.

Just now during the dinner, Lu Yisong asked him indirectly about his relationship with Yan Yijin, but he knew nothing about it.

He had no relationship with Yan Yijin, so of course he couldn't explain it. He couldn't even explain how he got the first-class military merit.

However, his performance was kept secret by Lu Yisong and the other two.

Lu Yisong learned from him some things about the battlefield in Yunbian County, but did not ask about the secret between him and Yan Yijin.

"It's time to go home."

Xu Xiaoniu put everything behind him and went home first.

He rode his horse and galloped towards Baihe Village.

Close, closer!

After ten years away from home, he finally came back.

The Xu family's old house is very lively at this moment.

The chef from the city was cooking, and there were maids and nannies helping in the kitchen.

Several tables were set up in the spacious front yard.

Xu Xiaoan brought out several jars of Yanqi wine from the wine cellar.

Several wives of the Xu family were talking about the "big brother" whom they had never met.

Xu Fugui and Jiazhen stood at the door looking forward to it, while their grandson Xu Zhongche ran around beside them.

Dahei, the more than ten-year-old old dog, wagged his tail and ran around excitedly.

Chen Xiulian also came. She had waited for ten years and insisted on not getting married, so Xu Fugui also informed her.

"coming!"

Xu Xiaogou had the best eyesight and saw Xu Xiaoniu riding back on horseback in the distance.

Hearing his shout, everyone stopped what they were doing and walked to the doorstep to welcome Xu Xiaoniu back.

Hu~~
The horse stopped more than ten meters away and Xu Xiaoniu jumped off the horse's back.

"Mom and Dad, I'm back!"

"Erxia, Third Brother, Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother, Dahei..."

He looked around at the crowd; ten years had changed everyone's appearance to some extent.

His father has hardly changed, but his mother looks much older.

Erxia has more of the feminine temperament of a mother.

San Gou has hardly changed.

Xu Xiaoyun has become more mature and fatter.

Xu Xiaoan was only eight years old when he left, and now he is an eighteen-year-old married man.

There are many unfamiliar faces...
