Traveling through the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, a story of survival in troubled tim

What followed was the sound of a teacup falling to the ground.

"What use are you to me?"

"I can't even do this..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the man who had reported the incident earlier said, "It is my fault. Please forgive me, Madam."

As he spoke, he looked up, trying to observe his wife's expression and think of how to respond.

I only raised my head halfway when I felt a heat on my head.

Looking at the tea coming towards him, he didn't dare to hide and had to accept it.

"Humph, it was your fault back then. If you can't even do this little thing, what am I going to do with you guys?

If you ruin my good thing, what will be the consequences?

You should know it clearly in your heart without me saying much."

The tea flowed down his hair onto his face. The man didn't dare to have any other thoughts. He buried his head and bent his waist even lower.

The thought of explaining his wife's anger suddenly died down.

After the woman threw the cup out, she saw that the man did not dodge, and her anger dissipated a lot. Although she was angry, now was the time to use him.

The mess still needs someone to clean up, and she doesn't have anyone she can use right now...

The woman stood up and walked to the door, then paused and said, "You should ask someone to check and see who we have offended.

Why did he lose his life for no apparent reason?

As for that place, you should hide well now and keep your troops in place. Wait for my instructions when the time comes."

After the woman finished speaking, she opened the door and walked out.

"Madam, you are out."

The woman glanced at the old woman who looked a bit like the one who had caused a commotion in Wenshu's yard, and her expression softened.

"Well, let's go back first."

After saying that, he led his men out of the restaurant.

……

Hearing the sound of footsteps coming down the stairs outside, the man straightened his bent back, picked up his sleeve to wipe the tea off his face, and looked out the window.

He restrained his smile and looked at the people on the street outside the window, wondering what was going on in his mind.

……

"Girl, do you see that arch bridge ahead?"

Du Ming held on. After a day of getting along with each other, Duan, with his outgoing personality, started talking and kept talking without giving anyone a moment to rest.

The boat had just passed a bend when an arch bridge spanned the two sides of the river not far away. The river they were sailing on was narrow, only about ten feet wide.

"Is that... a clan elder?"

At this time, Wen Shu was standing at the bow of the boat, looking at a group of people standing by the arch bridge. The person leading them was an old man with a white beard and a slightly hunched body.

From a distance, she looked older than her grandmother.

"Hey, girl, you have a really good eye and good taste..."

Duan saw the second master coming out of the arch bridge and agreed with a look of admiration on his face.

It is less than half a mile away from the arch bridge, and it is easy to get there.

Before the boat reached the shore, people on the shore came to greet them, led by the old man.

Behind him is a connivance...

"Hey, look at that young lady on the boat, isn't she the distinguished guest visiting our village this time..."

"I don't think so. How can a little girl be considered a distinguished guest? What kind of ability can she have?"

Another person who was a little older was not convinced when he heard this.

"What are you talking about, little girl? What's wrong with a little girl? Wasn't the young clan leader also a woman? If it weren't for the young clan leader, all of you would be dislocated now..."

"Hey, Grandma An, don't be angry, don't take these young people's opinions seriously.

They were young and inexperienced, and they didn't know the dangers of the time, nor did they see the young patriarch's heroic figure.

Another woman tried to persuade her, fearing that the old lady would get angry and stand at someone's door with her cane and curse.

I'm not teaching my younger generation well at home...

Wenshu stood at the bow of the boat. As the boat got closer, she could hear most of the discussions on the shore.

Looking at the person standing in front, thinking of Duan's introduction just now, and the so-called "young patriarch"

When I thought of my grandmother again, I didn't show any emotion on the surface, but I was shocked in my heart. I didn't expect that the person who hid the most in the family was my grandmother.

"You are Su Shui's granddaughter, Shu'er, right?"

As soon as the boat stopped and Wen Shu and her group had not yet disembarked, the old man came to greet them, his eyes shining with excitement, like a wolf that had been hungry for several days seeing a lone lamb.

There is kindness on her face...

The shore had been prepared long ago. Once the boat docked, several strong men on the shore stabilized the boat, allowing the people on the boat to walk as if on flat ground.

Seeing the people coming towards her, Wen Shu didn't care about anything else, left the others on the boat behind, and went ashore first.

She respectfully bowed to the old man as a junior, "Wenshu, meet your uncle..."

"Grandma, you are the one who said plain water..."

My grandmother's surname was Du, but she was in good health and strong. Due to years of war and famine outside, most people of her age had passed away early.

There are very few people in this world who know my grandmother's real name and her past. Wenshu only knew it when her grandmother told her before she passed away.

He also introduced the general situation of the clan now. The person in charge of the clan now is her cousin, and since he is the second child, she can just call him second uncle.

But Wenshu had never met the person and had only heard of him before, so she could only call him that before confirming his identity.

"it is good"

"it is good"

"OK……!"

The old man said three good words in a row, looked her up and down, and was so happy that the wrinkles around his eyes were squeezed together to join in the fun.

"Let's go home.

Go home.

Here, no matter what your surname or name is outside, your surname is Du.

They are all my direct descendants

......"

The people around also looked at Wenshu expectantly. Some of them were in their fifties or sixties, some of them were leaning on crutches.

The youngest, only two or three years old, hid behind the adults and squeezed in the crowd to see the "big shot" who was specially greeted by the elders.

The mountains here are high and the terrain is dangerous. Apart from doing farm work, the terrain conditions separate us from the outside world by many mountains.

The arrival of strangers in the village is not a major event that has happened in the village in recent years.

When everyone heard that the elders of the clan had come to the bridge head in person to greet them, they could not contain their curiosity and even stopped their work today to come and watch the fun.

"Elder, who is this?"

"This girl is really pretty. If she..."

When Wenshu heard the curious villagers running over and discussing her, she just pretended not to hear.

Du An and Du Ming went ashore, handed the boat over to the people on the shore, and then said goodbye and went home.

By the time Wenshu reacted, they were no longer visible.

Jueyu saw Wenshu looking around, as if searching for something.

Then he stepped forward and explained, "Girl, when the two elder brothers said goodbye, you were talking to this 'clan elder' and I saw that you were unable to get away.

Let me apologize to you, they left first, it seems like they had something urgent to do..."

"Ok!"

Wen Shu nodded and followed this "uncle" forward. Looking at the path, it seemed that they were heading towards the village ahead.

I felt a commotion behind me and turned around to see that the people who were originally on the arch bridge and on the shore, craning their necks to watch the fun, were following closely behind.
