Abandoned Husband to Farm the Farm

Qi Cheng came back, needless to say, he came back with a bunch of things.Mu Xiaolu has no way to deal with Mrs. Wang now, so he can only shake his head and sigh.Mrs. Wang may not really like his son, but for his own grandson.As long as Wang Hui stopped thinking, there would be no problem with Mr. Wang.

Seeing Qi Cheng running back and forth, Mu Xiaolu was very sorry, thinking that Qi Cheng had no income with him, so of course he had to bear his expenses, but Qi Cheng shook his head and said that the old man gave Yueyin, which was enough.Mu Xiaolu could only put this matter aside and discuss going back to Xiushui Village to have a look.Qi Cheng nodded and said, "I'll take care of the house, you go." So he made the trip.

It was a sunny morning on the eleventh day of February, Mu Xiaolu went to hire a carriage, and took Xiaofei on a "homecoming" journey.Before leaving, he also bought some snacks and fruits, thinking that if he met Jing Yuan's neighbors, he would still make friends with them, and they might make friends in the future.

Why do you have to go back to Jing Yuan's hometown?

In Mu Xiaolu's opinion, there are several reasons as follows:

Firstly, it was because his son had to have a household registration.Although Mr. Wang recognizes Qiuqiu's great-grandson, Mu Xiaolu doesn't want to get involved with the Wang family from the bottom of his heart. For a powerful family, he should be a treasure when he likes himself, and a trash when he doesn't. It's better to stay away from them.Directly refusing will offend Mrs. Wang, so it's better to fade it slowly.

Secondly, I took over Jing Yuan's body, that idiot who committed suicide because of a scumbag, I don't know where he is now, he is dead, is there any relatives at home?Is there anything to worry about?Every time I think about it, I feel very sad for Jing Yuan, and I always want to go back and have a look.

The third is that I have such a delicate skin and tender flesh. No wonder the two Wang Hui brothers always think that revenge for Jing Yuan may not be possible, but they must keep themselves?But Wang Hui chased after him closely, and if he ran again, he would lose energy. If he dragged his family, he could only scare off those two plague gods by becoming a villager as soon as possible!

The carriage moved forward slowly, and the mountains gradually increased.

In the early spring, the fields and mountains are still bleak, but if you look closely, you can see that many tender grass sprouts have emerged, so the gray tone is mixed with tender green, giving people a feeling of new vitality.

In fact, it was not far, only ten miles away, and within half an hour, people appeared in front of them.

Mu Xiaolu got out of the car and sat on the other side of the shaft, facing the chilly spring breeze, chatting with the driver.Ask him about Xiushui Village, the driver's wife's natal family is here, and she knows a little about things in this village.

Seeing Mu Xiaolu's question, a smile appeared on the driver's dark face, and he replied: "My lord, this Xiushui village is a small village with only fifty or so households, and if you go further in, it will be a big mountain.

Xiao Fei came out and asked, "Then do you know that there is a family named Jing?"

The coachman was taken aback, nodded and said, "I've heard of it, but there's no one there."

Mu Xiaolu didn't speak.

Xiaofei then asked who were the people in the village, men, women, children and so on.

The coachman saw that they were beautiful and not like the villagers, so he continued: "The people here are all farming for a living, and they are all poor and small households, so they are not worth mentioning."

Mu Xiaolu didn't have the heart to speak, but just listened, feeling more and more emotional in his heart.It's been six years since I left, and almost no one remembers Jing Yuan?

A small river ahead blocked the way. The river water had already thawed, and the current was still a little fast, splashing bright waves.Fortunately, there is a stone bridge on the river.

There is also a big lotus pond at the entrance of the village, the lotus leaves are dilapidated and there is still snow left.

Slowly entering the village, the villagers in twos and threes on the road are either pulling old cows or carrying hoes. It seems that the farmers have started to go to the ground in early spring.There are also children, big and small, running and playing after dogs in the village.

Mu Xiaolu didn't speak, just watched.Suddenly, a man in his 30s passed by not far away and shouted, "Ah! Jing Yuan? You're back? Someone looked for you years ago!"

Mu Xiaolu looked at him blankly.The farmer grabbed Mu Xiaolu's sleeve and said loudly, "I'm Brother Song who lives behind your house. Have you forgotten?"

Of course I—I don’t remember, Mu Xiaolu smiled inwardly, but his face remained calm, and he said, “It’s Brother Song, I didn’t see it all at once, are you okay?”

"Okay, okay." Lao Song was a little excited, pulling Mu Xiaolu tightly, and said again and again: "Go to my house, go to my house, let me tell you about the person who looked for you. It's... ah! It's that young master !" Lao Song suddenly pointed at the distance behind the carriage and shouted, which startled everyone.

When Mu Xiaolu looked back, his nose was crooked.Behind him was a tall horse with a shiny black coat, and immediately there was a tall and handsome young man, and there was no one else except Wang Hui.Although she was dressed in homely old clothes, that kind of appearance and momentum were no longer seen by ordinary people.

Mu Xiaolu frowned, thinking about how to deal with Wang Hui, but decided to ignore him after thinking for a while.He only smiled at Old Song, "Brother Song, I haven't been back for many years, what's going on at home?"

Lao Song immediately replied with a smile: "You don't have anything at home, what can you do if you lock the door? I'm afraid you can't even stand on your feet, so you should come to my house first. By the way, your aunt has asked me many times, and she said no. Knowing where you are, I'm dying."

Mu Xiaolu said, "Auntie?"

"Yes. You won't forget?" Old Song smiled.

Mu Xiaolu nodded and said, "I'll go home and have a look first."

"Okay, I'll go with you." Looking back at Wang Hui while walking, he whispered to Mu Xiaolu, "Xiao Yuan, why are you ignoring that young master, isn't he looking for you?"

Mu Xiaolu smiled and said, "I don't know him, maybe I've got the wrong person?"

Lao Song followed the car suspiciously, didn't speak at the moment, just looked back from time to time.

Mu Xiaolu felt bitter in his heart.That fellow Wang Hui was born with a good-looking appearance, and his status as a noble son and a great general gave him a distinctive aura, and it was difficult for others to ignore him.

The coachman drove the car and followed Lao Song forward. The group of people had different thoughts in their hearts, and a huge follower followed behind the car.

I followed Lao Song to the small courtyard that had been covered in dust for many years, and saw that the wooden door was locked, and the thick lock was already rusted. Thanks to the eaves on the door, it was not eroded by the rain.

Mu Xiaolu stood in front of the door for a moment and said, "Brother Song, help me break this lock."

Lao Song nodded, turned around and found a convenient stone on the side of the road, and smashed it vigorously. Although the lock was rusted, it was still quite strong.Mu Xiaolu is very strange, why hasn't anyone smashed the lock to steal things after all these years, maybe the folk customs here are too simple?

Lao Song was tired and sweated and didn't break the lock. He smiled and said, "I'll go home and get the axe."

Before turning around, he saw the tall and handsome young man stepping forward, holding both ends of the lock with both hands.As soon as the arms sank, there was a "click", and the lock broke.Except for Mu Xiaolu, several people were speechless.

Wang Hui took off the lock, pushed open the door, and signaled with a smile.Mu Xiaolu glanced at him and stepped in.

The yard was empty.The door was also locked, and Wang Hui unlocked the door again.

Mu Xiaolu went into the room to have a look, and saw that the tables and chairs were old, and there were only teapots and tea bowls on the table, which were already covered with dust, and there was a cabinet on the top of the kang in the back room, when he opened it, there were only a few beds and bedding, nothing else thing.

It seems that nothing was left behind, and it's good to leave cleanly. I hope he can live happily in another reincarnation.Then you can start your own life without any worries?

Mu Xiaolu walked out silently, and the three of them followed him.When I walked to the door, I saw several villagers crowded at the door to watch.Seeing Mu Xiaolu come out, they all greeted with a smile: "Xiao Yuan, we thought you weren't going home."

Mu Xiaolu nodded and smiled.

Suddenly the crowd split into two, and a middle-aged woman in an old homespun dress squeezed through the crowd and asked anxiously, "Xiao Yuan! Is it Xiao Yuan?" Seeing Mu Xiaolu at first glance, she quickly stepped forward to hug her, " Wuwu" burst into tears: "You are back, I miss my aunt! Where have you been for so many years?"

Mu Xiaolu heard that she called herself aunt, so he thought it was Jing Yuan's aunt that Lao Song said?To recognize or not to recognize?After staying for two seconds, I still decided to admit it, grabbed the woman's shoulder and smiled: "Auntie, haven't I come back now? Don't be sad."

The woman cried for a while, then wiped her tears and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, I should be happy that you are back. Let's go home with my aunt." She held Mu Xiaolu's hand tightly and went out Walk.

Mu Xiaolu saw that her face was full of wind and frost, but the corners of her eyes were already deeply wrinkled, and with the tear stains on her face, her white temple hair and worn sarong, Mu Xiaolu felt very complicated.Jing Yuan, Jing Yuan, you went to enjoy the wealth with Xiu Qing, but you didn't come back to see it. You died because of that scum, but you forgot that there are still relatives who miss you in this world!It really shouldn't be!It's just that Jing Yuan, as someone else's pet, probably isn't so free.

A group of people followed them forward, and the coachman pulled the carriage and followed them.Behind him were many watching villagers.

The woman walked while holding Mu Xiaolu's hand, and said with a weeping voice: "That year you said you were going to the capital, and someone took care of you to live a good life. Aunt thought you would come back soon. Unexpectedly, there was no more news, and my aunt thought, you, you are gone, how can I explain to your deceased parents. Although your father and I are distant cousins, we grew up together since we were young. It's the same. You are the only seedling left in the Jing family, how can you not be worried? You cruel child, why didn't you know to come back and have a look?

Mu Xiaolu smiled and said, "I'm back now? Auntie, don't be sad."

Aunt Jing wiped away her tears and smiled: "Yes, yes. You should be happy. I heard from your brother Song last year that a son came to the village to look for you. Unfortunately, I didn't see it. If I saw it, I must ask him where you are. I I was talking about you with your cousin a few days ago, I really didn't expect you to come back."

After talking for a while, he suddenly asked, "I forgot to ask, are the two people following you your friends?"

Mu Xiaolu nodded helplessly and said, "Yes. This is my sworn brother Lu Xiaofei, and this is my friend Wang Hui." Seeing Wang Hui winking at himself triumphantly, he felt chilled and decided to ignore him.

Now, it is impossible not to recognize Wang Hui as an acquaintance.Who made that guy follow him closely like it was a matter of course?Alas, Bai lied to Brother Song.

Turning across a narrow alley full of stones, I entered a small courtyard of a thatched cottage with stone walls.The woman sighed: "That year when your parents passed away, I told you to move to my house, but you were stubborn. Alas, is it so easy to live alone? Your uncle passed away, and I have lived these few years alone." , It’s very hard. Now your cousin is also a widow, alas, this life is really hard to live, but fortunately we are used to it. Now that you are back, our family can take care of us.”

After entering the room, Wang Hui stopped there, and the whole room seemed small.Mu Xiaolu gave him a sideways glance, but Wang Hui pretended not to see it.Aunt Jing quickly smiled at Wang Hui and said, "The farmer's house is very narrow, so you are being wronged. Drink a bowl of water and rest for a while." Although Mu Xiaolu introduced Wang Hui as a friend, in Aunt Jing's eyes, He is a mighty noble son, and he still dare not neglect.

My family was poor and had no tea, so I just poured hot water in a clean bowl.

Wang Hui had nothing to do, just sat and drank water with a smile.As long as you let him follow, it doesn't matter what you do, the old grandfather said, one word: entanglement!

Xiaofei looked at the situation and thought to himself, should we hurry up and practice spells?Just scare Wang Hui away when the time comes.It's a pity that brother Lu only learned how to attract magpies.Alas, what I can recruit are bees, why is it that he only recruits magpies?The same spell, different results, really puzzling!

The outside guests were drinking water, Aunt Jing lifted the old cloth curtain and pulled Mu Xiaolu into the back room, shouting excitedly, "Taoye, Xiao Yuan is back!"

Mu Xiaolu followed into the room, and saw a 26-year-old young woman sitting up from the kang, about to get down.Seeing him coming in, before he could say anything, his eye circles were already red, he rushed down and grabbed Mu Xiaolu and said, "Xiao Yuan, I saw you from the window, you have really grown up. Your friends are from the official family ? I didn’t dare to go out. Where have you been all these years? How are you doing?”

Mu Xiaolu knew that it was that cousin, and saw that although she was very beautiful, she was so clean with plain hairpins and plain skirts that there was no decoration at all, which is rare for a woman of this age.I think the family is poor and has no money to dress up.

Mu Xiaolu didn't know what to say to her, so he smiled and called, "Cousin."

Taoye wiped away her tears, pulled Mu Xiaolu to sit down and said, "Mom and I miss you every year. I don't know where you are. Who would have seen you come back, and uncle and aunt can rest in peace."

Mu Xiaolu felt a rush of heat in his heart, wanted to cry, but of course he didn't cry, he just thought, how difficult is it for two widows to be tortured in this world?Since he is Jing Yuan's relative, he will take responsibility for it himself.

Aunt Jing quickly stopped and said, "Okay, Taoye, your cousin just came back, and I just cried, so don't cry. We should be happy. I'll cook." Suddenly she moved closer to Mu Xiaolu She whispered: "Yuan, your two friends are eating at our house. Auntie is afraid of wronging them. Our family has nothing to eat."

Mu Xiaolu smiled and said: "It's okay, just the homely things. I also brought some snacks, and my aunt will share them with the neighbors. Just leave a little." He said in his heart: Xiaofei and I can eat the food of such a poor family. Naturally you can eat it, it depends on how you swallow it, General Wang! "

It's a pity that Mu Xiaolu miscalculated. When he brought the bowl of bean rice and pickled radish sticks in front of Wang Hui, the general ate it quietly and with gusto, which is really puzzling.

The bean rice was actually just boiled beans, which Aunt Jing left for herself and her daughter, and the guests made yellow rice for them.In order to teach Wang Hui a lesson, Mu Xiaolu brought up the bean rice, but what Xiaofei was given was yellow rice.

Wang Hui looked at Mu Xiaolu's eyes, but he smiled in his heart: This general has been fighting for many years, sleeping in the frost and lying in the snow, what hardships have he suffered?The little farm food wants to repel me?There are no doors!

He laughed in his heart, but he pretended to be gentle and polite, eating very elegantly, and let Mu Xiaolu and Xiaofei eat from time to time, as if what he was eating was delicious.Wang Hui was originally a talented person with both civil and military skills. As long as he wanted to pretend, no one could suppress his temperament.

Aunt Jing came over from the kitchen, and saw that tall nobleman eating her own bean rice, she was frightened, she quickly pulled Mu Xiaolu in, and whispered: "Yuan, why don't you give the nobleman to eat bean rice? angry"

Mu Xiaolu shook his head and said, "Don't worry about it, Auntie, you should go and have dinner with your cousin soon."

Aunt Jing went suspiciously.

In fact, farmers eat two meals, but when guests come, they rush to cook at noon.

It's just that these big men ate five or six days' worth of food for the two women in one meal.In order not to let her nephew lose face, Aunt Jing didn't care that she and her daughter would starve in a few days.

It's just that Mu Xiaolu went to the kitchen, looked at the rice vat, felt sore, and thought it was better to take their mother and daughter away.This day is too bitter.

After the meal, Aunt Jing poured water for the guests again, apologizing repeatedly: "There is nothing good at home, I have made the guests wronged."

Both Wang Hui and Xiaofei laughed and said it was okay.

Aunt Jing pulled Mu Xiaolu and said, "Yuan, are you going to leave this time when you come back? It's time to visit your parents' tombs."

Mu Xiaolu felt awkward for a moment, then he felt relieved: It should be.

Several people packed up and went to pay homage to the tomb of Jing Yuan's parents.

It is five miles away from the village, but the mountain road is still flat, and it has not yet reached the real deep mountain.In a small mountain depression, several lonely tombs are there to withstand the wind and rain.

Mu Xiaolu glanced at the tombstone, and saw that several elders of the Jing family were buried here.It turned out that the population of the Jing family had already withered, and there was only one person left in Jingyuan.Aunt Jing's husband was also buried here, but I don't know why.

Aunt Jing said with red eyes while putting the offerings on the offering stone, "Brother and sister-in-law, Xiao Yuan is back, finally back. I will watch him marry a wife and carry on the family line from now on, so you can rest assured in the underground."

Thinking of Jing Yuan, Mu Xiaolu felt pity in his heart, knelt down and kowtowed to his parents a few times, and wished in his heart: "I hope that you will know each other underground, meet Jing Yuan, reunite your family, and have a good life in your next life. Don't let yourself My son was cheated." But he said: "Don't worry, father and mother, I will be filial to my aunt."

When returning home after worshiping, Mu Xiaolu suddenly discovered that there was a sunny slope on the mountain to the east, which was very gentle. There was actually a small stream flowing down the mountain and converging into the river at the bottom of the mountain.Unconsciously moved, he asked, "Auntie, why is there no one farming on that hillside?"

Aunt Jing smiled and said, "You child, that is a hillside. How do you farm? The fields at the bottom of the mountain are easy to grow? We have a small population here, and it is tiring to go to the mountains to farm. Not many people go to the fields. Besides, it is still far away from the village. some."

When he got home, Mu Xiaolu saw that the sun was already in the west, and he didn't intend to waste any time, so he said to Aunt Jing directly, "Auntie, come with me. I live in the town now, and I have a place at home, so I can accommodate you guys." Yes. From now on, my aunt and cousin will live with me, so I won’t have to live in the village anymore.”

Aunt Jing burst into tears, and cousin Taoye also turned her head to wipe her tears.

Mu Xiaolu asked his aunt to pack up his things first, and went out by himself to call the coachman over.

The poor family has nothing to tidy up, only a few clothes, and nothing else.Aunt Jing came out with her daughter, Taoye lowered her head, carrying a bundle, and the two got into the car.

But there was barely room for two people in that carriage, and one more person sat on the other side of the shaft, and there was no room for another person to sit.

Mu Xiaolu was a little worried.Looking at Xiaofei, Xiaofei said: "How about I walk?"

Mu Xiaolu shook his head, just about to say that he was walking.Wang Hui suddenly interjected, "Get on your horse." Mu Xiaolu shook his head even more.Xiaofei suddenly smiled, flew lightly onto Wang Hui's horse, sat behind him and said softly, "General, I'll sit on your horse!"

Wang Hui's face was like a curtain being drawn down all of a sudden.Mu Xiaolu couldn't help laughing.

Slowly arrived at the town, it was getting dark.The car stopped in front of the house and dismissed the driver.Xiaofei went up to call for the door, and after a while Xiao Sulin came to open the door, surprised to see so many people.

Mu Xiaolu first let Aunt Jing and cousin Taoye in, and then pulled Xiaofei in. Wang Hui was at the end, just about to enter the door, when Mu Xiaolu closed the door, "bang" almost caught Wang Hui's feet, he Stop quickly.Smiling helplessly, he got on his horse and went back.

This is not the way to follow, Mu Xiaolu is not fake at all.How to do it?Wang Hui was thinking hard as he rode his horse forward slowly.It seems that the effect of the old grandfather's shot is not obvious.Now that an aunt has come, she may be urging him to get married, as old people are like this.No, I have to find another way to speed up the process. If he keeps procrastinating like this, he might even marry his wife.

In the evening, General Wang met someone at the inn in the town, and he said angrily, "Qi Cheng, you don't give me any advice, you just take money and don't do anything!"

Qi Cheng replied blankly: "I promised the general to protect Mu Xiaolu, but I didn't promise to match you up. As long as the general doesn't force him, the subordinates don't care. It depends on your own ability."
