Shen Zhuru tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. Wu Duming thought that the old woman was in interest again, thinking that her old arms and legs really couldn't do anything anymore. She turned sideways and pretended to be asleep, and even pretended to snore. It's just that Lao Wu's acting skills are too mediocre. How can he escape Shen Zhuru's fiery eyes?
"Old Wu, why are you pretending? I'm not in the mood today. Hey, talk to me." Shen Zhuru stretched out her big hand and pushed Old Wu.
As soon as Lao Wu heard that it had nothing to do with Fengyue, he immediately stopped snoring and yawned: "It's late at night, if you don't sleep well, what should you say? If you have something to say, you can't say it until dawn?"
"Wu Duming! Are you excited? You usually play dumb with me, but I can't tolerate you. If you keep pretending like this, I'll get you a hat." Shen Zhuru said.
Old Wu panicked: "You, you, you, just say what you have to say. After you finish speaking, go to bed. You will still go to work tomorrow."
"What's going on with our uncle? He was living well in Xiangjiang, so why did he go to the countryside again? Others are trying to get into the city or abroad. Although Xiangjiang is also our own place, it is not as good as Our East China Sea is still doing well. There are many people who want to go but can't, but he is doing well. He took good care of himself and ran back." Shen Zhuru said.
"Didn't Wanyi say that? Chang Xing is afraid that Wanyi will be too lonely in the East China Sea. Chang Qing is so old that she won't stay with her mother. It doesn't matter if they come back. We don't have to worry too much if they are reunited as a family. "Aren't you worried a few days ago that Chang Xing might be seduced by some unscrupulous woman in Xiangjiang? Now that he is back, isn't it better?" Wu Duming said.
"I wanted Wan Yi to follow me, not to let Chang Xing come back. I finally established a firm foothold in Xiangjiang, but then I ran back stupidly. Isn't this stupid?" Shen Zhuru said.
"I think this is fine. Wanyi starts her internship now and can be assigned work immediately. Chang Xing can also gain a foothold in Donghai with his own skills. There is nothing wrong with living a peaceful life in Donghai in the future." Wu Duming said. .
"What's good? You've been a researcher all your life, but your son-in-law only gets the most popular color TV and refrigerator at home. With your little salary, you will never even think about buying a color TV in this life." Shen Zhuru said.
"Then you looked down on Chang Xing before! But now you don't want to fawn over him?" Wu Duming said.
"I'm too lazy to tell you, go to sleep!" Shen Zhuru turned over, with her butt facing Wu Duming.
Wu Duming also turned over and faced outside, and the couple fell asleep back to back.
There are a lot more things in the Wu family's house than before, and the furniture has become sets. The old furniture has also been repaired and repainted by Chang Xing. The color TV is the only one in the alley, and at night , many people in the neighborhood went to Wu's house to watch TV. Not to mention the refrigerator, I have never heard of any other house having one. Only Wu's house has one.
To say that Shen Zhuru was dissatisfied with this son-in-law, it was not entirely true. At least when Chang Xing was in Xiangjiang, she was still very satisfied. She was just dissatisfied with the son-in-law's arrangements.
He refused to go to the hospital to be a doctor at first, and now he refuses to stay in Xiangjiang. People go to higher places, and water flows to lower places. Why does Chang Xing like to go to lower places?
"Oh!"
Chang Xing sneezed.
Chang Qing clapped her hands: "Hahaha, it's sunny for three days!"
After shouting, he ran behind the old Taoist in a hurry. There is a saying in Xianji Bridge that a dog sneezes and it will clear up in three days. Chang Qing naturally made fun of Chang Xing.
Chang Xing immediately chased after him, but Chang Qing had already pushed Lao Dao out as a protective shield. The little kid poked his head out from behind Lao Dao's butt provocatively, stuck out his tongue and made faces at Chang Xing.
"You brat, if you are still naughty, I won't protect you." The old Taoist said with a smile.
"Master, this brat has been spoiled by you." Chang Xing said.
"My disciple is going to the East China Sea soon. Even if I want to, I won't be able to get used to him in a few days. How can I be considered the one who has spoiled him?" said the old Taoist.
"Master, are you really not going to the East China Sea with us?" Chang Xing was still worried about letting the old Taoist stay alone in the Patriarch Temple.
"If you don't go, I'll stay at home for a hundred days, and it will be difficult to go out. Master is old, and it's time for the leaves to return to their roots. You young people have your young career, and I, a bad old man, can't delay you. Chang Xing, you are a family
Master. Regarding Taoism, I don’t expect you to pass on the mantle. Times have changed, and everything is different. No matter how good you are in Taoism, it would be a pity if you can’t be with your family. Master once left behind regrets, no matter how good you are in Taoism,
I like you just like Master." The old Taoist said.
"Master, wouldn't it be the same if you went to the East China Sea with us? With you by our side, we can take care of you at any time. How can you make me feel at ease when you stay alone in the mountains?" Chang Xing said.
"Why are you nagging you over and over again about what we agreed to do?" The old man no longer paid attention to Chang Xing's persuasion.
Chang Xing was helpless and shook his head.
The old Taoist continued: "When we were in Xiangjiang, we agreed with Wanyi that if you send me back, you will go to Donghai immediately. You have sent me back for so long and you still don't leave. Wanyi will think that I am not allowed to leave."
You are going to the East China Sea."
"Wanyi wouldn't think so. It was Wanyi who told me not to leave you alone in the Patriarch's Temple. You also listened to the phone call. If you say that to Wanyi, Wanyi will be sad," Chang Xing said.
"Wanyi is so filial, so I can't keep you at home. I will leave for the East China Sea tomorrow. If you don't leave, I will go out for a wander tomorrow. When the old man dies outside, you won't even have to collect the body."
said.
Chang Xing said quickly: "Okay, okay, we'll leave tomorrow."
"Master, you don't want me anymore? I'm still staying at the Master's Temple to accompany you. I also want to see Sun Wukong. If I leave, Sun Wukong won't be able to find us when he comes back." Chang Qing burst into tears.
"Don't cry, don't cry. It's all because your dad is a bastard and doesn't listen to Master at all. Master will deal with him later," the old Taoist said.
"Master, don't hit my dad." Chang Qing quit.
"Hey, just now you were running behind Master to ask for his protection. Why are you helping your father now?" The old Taoist couldn't laugh or cry.
"Anyway, you are not allowed to hit my dad. My mom is not here. What if my dad cries?" Chang Qing said worriedly.
On the same day, Lao Dao began to prepare various belongings of Chang Xing and his son and put them all into boxes.
"Chang Xing, what do you want to bring to your father-in-law and mother-in-law? Go to Xianji Bridge yourself. These things are not valuable in our Xianji Bridge, but they will be rare in the city." The old Taoist said.
"Wanyi's mother likes to look at people through the cracks in the door. When we were doing sports, I brought a box of bacon over, and she was so happy. Later, her family took off their hats, and it was no longer a surprise. After I went to Xiangjiang, she
I only like things from Xiangjiang. Now that I have returned to Xianji Bridge, it would be strange if she likes things from Xianji Bridge," Chang Xing said.
"You just bring it over, it's her business whether you want it or not. If she doesn't want it, you put it in the space magic weapon. We can't buy the good things from Xianji Bridge in Donghai. Anyway, they won't go bad if you put them in the space magic weapon. Bring more with you.
." said the old man.
Chang Xing suddenly discovered that Lao Tao was getting older and older, and he was completely different from before. At that time, Lao Tao just wanted to run out and find a way out to practice Buddhism. But now, he only has this family in his heart.
"Yes. Chang Qing, you and Master are at home. Dad is going out." Chang Xing said.
"Okay." Chang Qing said happily.
"Don't go to the mountains to find Sun Wukong!" Chang Xing immediately understood why Chang Qing was so happy.
"I know." Chang Qing sighed. This guy actually knew it.
Chang Xing then went down the mountain. Chang Xing went to the village to collect things. Many families brought their own things and wanted to give them to Chang Xing for free and refused to accept any money. Some of them were sincere, and some were just to save face.
.
"They are all worthless things. Just take them. Who among the fellow villagers has the nerve to ask for your money?" Xiao Laosi said.
"Old fourth uncle, this is different. If I wanted to eat a little by myself, I would definitely do it myself without asking. But now I want a lot, and I want to take it to the East China Sea. How dare I ask for it from the folks for free? Although we are immortals
The Qiao Brigade is a little richer, but there are still many people who are not living an easy life. Everyone also knows that I have a factory in Xiangjiang. I can make a lot of money every year. I am not short of money," Chang Xing said.
"Chang Xing, don't do this. Everyone's feelings are broken." Xiao Laosi said.
Xiao Jinlin came over and said: "What is Shengwen? We can't give you a penny for the things in our family. Unless you dislike me as a junior brother. I don't care whether you give money to other families."
Xiao Jinlin brought a lot of things over and placed them in front of Chang Xing.
Zhang Dalei did the same. He dragged a lot of things on a tricycle and placed them in front of Chang Xing: "Chang Xing, if you recognize me as your brother, don't talk to me about money."
"Why are you walking in such a hurry?" Xiao Jinlin asked.
"I was chased away by Master. He was afraid that I would not leave for the East China Sea immediately, and even threatened me to go out and wander around. Jin Lin, after I go to the East China Sea, Master will ask you. You don't have to run up there every day. Just go there every now and then."
." Chang Xing said.
"Don't worry. Jin Lin and I will take turns going there every day," Zhang Dalei said.
"Okay, then it's up to you two to do the hard work." Chang Xing said.
"What are you talking about? You really don't regard me as a brother?" Zhang Dalei said.
Early the next morning, Lao Tao sent Chang Xing and his son down the mountain. Xiao Jinlin called for a small car to wait in the village of Xianjiqiao. Lao Tao sent Chang Xing and his son to Xianjiqiao, but did not follow them to the town or county.
.
Three days later, when night fell, Chang Xing appeared in front of the still simple and simple house, dragging a box with Chang Qing's hand.
"We're home! Chang Xing, do we want to give your mother a surprise?" Chang Xing asked.
"Of course!" Chang Qing said with a smile. Chang Xing immediately hugged Chang Qing into his arms and jumped into the courtyard wall.
Chang Qing chuckled, completely breaking the silence.
Wu Wanyi is sitting in her room reading a book. She has just started working these days. Wu Wanyi is working very hard. Naturally, she is also very tired. She has done all the chores in the office. It would be strange if she is not tired. The laughter that just sounded in the yard suddenly made Wu Wanyi
My heart tightened.
"What's going on? That voice sounded so familiar just now." Wu Wanyi stood up, walked to the door and opened it. But there was nothing outside.
"I knew I heard wrong." Wu Wanyi sighed.
"Mom, why are you sighing? Are you unhappy?" Chang Qing suddenly came out from behind Wu Wanyi. Wu Wanyi was shocked.
"Son! When did you come back?" Wu Wanyi quickly grabbed Chang Qing's ears with her hands.
"Just now. Mom, are you surprised?" Chang Qing smiled.
"You brat, that was not a surprise, it was a shock! Where is your father?" Wu Wanyi asked.
Chang Qing glanced behind.
Wu Wanyi looked over, but there was no sign of Chang Xing, and she immediately became angry: "Chang Xing, if you don't come out, see how I deal with you!"
Chang Xing walked out with a smile and took out a bouquet of flowers, which he picked from the flowers near the Patriarch Temple.
"Chang Xing, what do you mean by the few pieces of horsetail grass you put in this?" Wu Wanyi was actually very happy, but she was deliberately looking for trouble. There really was horsetail grass in that bouquet of flowers.
"This looks good. It suits you very well." Chang Xing said.
"I'm going with horsetail grass, right?" Wu Wanyi's eyes flashed, and Chang Xing was a little panicked.
Chang Xing and his son came over, and the family of three reunited, naturally feeling happy.
However, a few days later, the Donghai Religious Affairs Operation Brigade arrived. Zhou Shaonan personally took Jin Bangmin to visit him.
"You guys are really good at spying. I've only been in Donghai for a few days and you guys came to visit me," Chang Xing said.
"If the situation hadn't been urgent, I wouldn't have come so quickly to seek help from fellow Taoist Chang," Zhou Shaonan said.
"I'm just a commoner, what do you want from me?" Chang Xing asked.
Zhou Shaonan glanced at Chang Xing: "Fellow Taoist Chang, please don't say you don't know about the things in the small world."
Chang Xing said: "If I say I don't know, you won't believe it. This time I went to Xiangjiang, I did see a small world. But there is nothing in the small world of Xiangjiang. There are some worldly things in it."
"What about the other place? It is said that there are spiritual beasts there. Before you returned to Xiangjiang, you could often hear the roars of spirit beasts, but after you came back, you didn't hear anything anymore. People in Xiangjiang said that you secretly took the little ones away.
The world has been plundered." Zhou Shaonan said with a smile.
"Could it be that Captain Zhou came here because he wanted to stand up for the Xiangjiang monastic community?" Chang Xing said with a smile.
"I can't control the affairs of the Xiangjiang monastic community as a small leader of the action team. But I think Fellow Daoist Chang must have been to that small world, right? Being able to escape unscathed shows that Fellow Daoist Chang is very powerful," Zhou Shaonan said.
.
"Captain Zhou, I think it's better for us to get straight to the point. If there's nothing I can do about what Captain Zhou said, Captain Zhou might as well go find Gao Ming." Chang Xing said.
Zhou Shaonan nodded: "Then let's talk about business."
