Chapter 64: Going on the road

After hearing Liu Qian's words, Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help but feel silent. Yes, she used to be taken care of by her family no matter what she did at home. Now she has to stay away from her and she has to do everything by herself. Even if she has her second brother by her side, she has to care about everything. However, the eldest sister-in-law said this to the point.

Seeing Zhang Xiaohua showing a thoughtful expression, Liu Qian felt very relieved. She stepped forward and touched Xiaohua's head and said, "Take it slow, I think Xiaohua will definitely be able to adapt."

Zhang Xiaohua raised her head, smiled brightly, and said firmly: "Yes, sister-in-law, I will definitely do it."

Zhang Xiaolong also came over, took out two silver notes from his arms, handed them to Zhang Xiaohu, and said, "Xiaohu, this is the silver notes I got in Lu Town last time, and it has never been useful. You have taken two. No one has come to get them for such a long time, so I guess they won't come."

Zhang Xiaohu didn't answer, turned to look at Zhang Cai and Guo Sufei, and said, "Dad, mom, we shouldn't take this silver note. After all, it's not ours. If someone comes to get it, wouldn't we have no money to give it to them? Just make trouble for our own family?"

Guo Sufei sighed, took out a handkerchief from her arms, opened it, there were some scattered silver inside, and handed it to Zhang Xiaohu, saying, "Xiaohu, this is the silver we saved. If you go out with Xiaohua, don't save too much money. Everything must be put on the body. We don't need so much at home, so you can take it."

Zhang Xiaohu took the handkerchief and wanted to take out a few from it and hand it to his mother, but Guo Sufei put it back on the handkerchief, so she carefully wrapped it in her arms.

Seeing that Zhang Xiaohu didn't receive the silver bill, Zhang Xiaolong took out the token of Piaomiao Sect from his arms and said, "Xiaohu, it's okay if you don't take the silver bill. You must bring this token, otherwise you will not know you if you go there. If you take the token and look for Ms. Xue, you will have a better chance."

Zhang Xiaohu shook his head and said, "Brother, this token was for us by Ms. Xue, and should not be used for other purposes. By relying on Ms. Xue, I joined the Piaomiao Sect. That is not our own ability. I think it is better to rely on my own strength. Otherwise, Ms. Xue would misunderstand us. Moreover, the bullies of Lu Town and the bandits of Xicui Mountain might come to us one day, and most of them would have to rely on this token to overcome the difficulties. The purpose of Xiaohua and I to go to Pingyang City is to practice martial arts and protect the safety of our family. We would take away the things that saved our lives at home without any reason."

Before Zhang Xiaohu finished speaking, someone outside exclaimed: "Good ambition, Xiaohu said it well. Everything is obtained through his own ability. It is never real to rely on others."

Everyone turned around and realized that it was Mr. Liu who came to see Zhang Xiaohu and the others.

Mr. Liu walked to them, touched Zhang Xiaohua's head with one hand, patted Zhang Xiaohu's shoulder with the other, and said with satisfaction: "You are all good children. You must be careful when going out. Remember how much sweat you have to pay to get a lot of rewards. Don't do opportunistic things, and don't do things that endanger life. Remember that you are not alone in the world. Behind you are parents, brothers and sisters-in-law are watching, waiting for you. After you go out, whenever you have something, you must first pass your brain and think carefully. You cannot do it blindly. Passionate impulse is good, but it must be within your own ability."

After saying that, he also took out a silver note from his arms and handed it to Zhang Xiaohu and said, "This is my savings. When you go out, the uncle has nothing to give. Take this for emergency needs."

Zhang Xiaohu still didn't dare to answer, so he turned to look at Zhang Cai and Guo Sufei. Zhang Cai said, "In-law, there is no need for this. The money has been given to Xiaohu, and it is probably enough to spend. We have received your wishes, so let's put the silver notes away."

Mr. Liu laughed and said, "In-laws, it seems that you still treat me as an outsider. I will live with you in the future, so why bother with each other? It's useless for me to hold this silver note. Why do you want to give it to Xiaohu and let them take it. If you don't need it, you'll just return it to me when you come back."

Liu Qian also said: "Dad said something reasonable. Xiaohu, just keep it. At worst, you can go home and pay it back."

Zhang Cai didn't say anything anymore. Zhang Xiaohu thought about it, then raised his hand and took it in his arms and said, "Then thank you uncle."

Mr. Liu smiled with satisfaction.

That night, everyone sat in the main hall of the Zhang family, saying a lot under the swaying oil lamp. Mr. Liu said everything he knew and what he heard of when he was away. Guo Sufei also said things about life, and told Zhang Xiaohu and Zhang Xiaohua that their ears were calloused until everyone yawned and then they dissipated.

In grandma's hut, Zhang Xiaohua talked about grandma and slowly fell asleep.

Zhang Xiaohu tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. He had no purpose in going to Pingyang City, but he felt his shortcomings on the issue of Liu Yueyue. He thought of exploring the world outside and finding his own way. After being disturbed by Zhang Xiaohua, he felt that practicing martial arts was a bright road. However, he had no intention of doing it. No one in his family had traveled far away, so he naturally didn't know that Mr. Liu and Liu Kai were both literary and had no opinions on this. In addition to the bandits and the Evil Tiger Gang in Xicuishan, there was no one to ask about. Zhang Xiaohua could naturally sleep well, and he had to think clearly. Otherwise, when he arrived in Pingyang City, he had to go home after spending the money. Suddenly, he was shocked. Could it be that his father and mother had such an idea?

The next morning, Zhang Xiaohua was still awake early. After washing his face, he went to the hillside to fetch water, filling the water tank at home, hoping to do more work for the family before leaving.

After getting up, Guo Sufei found that Zhang Xiaohua was working. Her heart was warm, but her eyes were red. While thinking that her son had grown up, she was really reluctant to let him go.

After breakfast, Zhang Cai took his family to the grave of grandpa and grandma to pay tribute, and then came back to pack their luggage and prepare to set off.

In fact, my luggage had already been packed up, but I just checked it again. Everyone took the luggage and went out together. Mr. Liu followed me.

Most of the people in the village went to the fields to work. When walking on the road, they occasionally met some people. When they saw Zhang Xiaohu's appearance, they knew they were going out, so they all came over to say hello and give him some instructions.

In this way, I slowly walked to the entrance of the village.

It was time to part. Zhang Xiaolong carried the slightly larger package to Zhang Xiaohu on his body, and Liu Qian took the small one to Zhang Xiaohua. Guo Sufei tidied Zhang Xiaohu and Zhang Xiaohua's clothes, but tears had already flowed down. He kept saying to the two: "Go out and pay attention to safety. If you don't work, come back early."

Zhang Cai didn't say anything, looking at the two of them lovingly, his eyes were red.

Zhang Xiaohu and Zhang Xiaohua were a little impatient and said, "It's nothing, mom, just go out? Although we have never been to Pingyang City, we are also old and should go to see the world. Don't worry, we will take good care of ourselves."

Seeing the child like this, Guo Sufei became more and more worried and said, "Son, don't be too careless, be careful in everything. Xiaohua is still young, Xiaohu must take good care of her younger brother and never let Xiaohua suffer any grievances."

Zhang Xiaohu repeatedly promised his mother that he would not let Zhang Xiaohua suffer, but Guo Sufei did not mention it.

Zhang Cai looked at the sky and stepped forward and said, "Don't say too much, let them leave quickly. You have to go to Lu Town to catch a train, don't delay the time."

Guo Sufei thought about it and let go. Zhang Xiaolong, Liu Qian and Mr. Liu also came forward to give instructing him. Zhang Xiaohu and Zhang Xiaohua carried their bags and set off on the road. After walking dozens of steps, when they looked back, the mountain wind blew up Guo Sufei's white hair. Zhang Xiaohua's calm heart suddenly had a storm. He always felt that he was very strong, and he couldn't help but shed tears. The tears flowed down, and he couldn't stop it.

Zhang Xiaohua threw down her bag, turned around and ran back, and threw herself into her mother's arms, hugging Guo Sufei tightly.

Guo Sufei also hugged her young son and started crying. After a while, Zhang Xiaohua let go. Guo Sufei tentatively said, "Xiaohua, why don't you go and stay at home with your mother, okay?"

Zhang Xiaohua shook her head, wiped her tears with her hands, and said, "No, mom, I must leave. This is the last time I shed tears. I never want to cry anymore, let alone see the people in my family crying. Even if I bleed myself, I don't want you to bleed. I believe my mom, I will do it. You can wait and see your son's efforts."

Guo Sufei wiped her tears and nodded and said, "I believe, Xiaohua, you will do it, you will not disappoint us."

Zhang Cai's tears also flowed quietly, but he quickly wiped them away.

Zhang Xiaohua looked at her family again, wanting to remember them deeply, and then turned around and left. At this time, Zhang said: "Wait."

Zhang Xiaohua stopped and looked at her father strangely.

Zhang Cai walked forward, looked at his son, opened his arms and hugged him tightly. Zhang Xiaohua was very excited when she smelled the smell of her father. Since she became sensible, her father never hugged her again, and she did not pretend to be a lie. She once thought that her father didn't like her, but now she realized that her father's love for him is not inferior to her mother, but the way was different.

After a while, Zhang let go of his arms and said to Zhang Xiaohua: "Go, child. Dad and mother are waiting for you at home."

Zhang Xiaohua nodded and said, "Dad, you must take care of yourself too."

Then, Zhang Xiaohua turned around and left, picked up the bag, turned around, waved to everyone, and left firmly.

When Zhang Xiaohu and Zhang Xiaohua turned a hillside and couldn't see it, Zhang Cai, Guo Sufei and others were still reluctant to leave. They looked at it for a long time, hoping to see their son again.

However, they were disappointed, and the familiar figure did not appear again.

Guo Sufei asked Zhang Cai: "The child's father, do you think the children will suffer losses outside?"

Zhang Cai said: "Don't worry, they will come back after they suffer. Maybe soon, just think it's going out to play."

Unfortunately, they didn't know that Zhang Xiaohua's step was not simply a step from the mountain village, but a big step that influenced the entire world.
