Chapter 963 The woman born in the face, the hero in the baby
It was not just the young man with a red face in front of him. When the two people behind him caught up and saw clearly that it was Xiao Tang, Empress Yan Qing also immediately got off her horse and stepped forward to pay her respects. Another young man among them said: "Brother Xiao has won the favor of the market town."
After hearing the letter, my younger brother and others came to pay tribute to their mentor. They have been waiting for a long time. Everyone in the town was disappointed with my brother and they only hoped to see each other as soon as possible. The monks and Taoists were just doing their best for their mentor. We are here to pay our respects in front of his soul.
For a while, I have been feeling depressed. Today I helped brother Xiao Yi go to Daming Mansion for business, and I have to rush back to the market town, but I don’t want to meet my brother again here!"
When these three young men came together, the images of three mischievous naughty boys appeared in Xiao Tang's mind. After listening to the young men's words, Xiao Tang was surprised and said: "Zhang Xian? Tang Huai? Wang
expensive?"
The blushing Wang Gui stood up and said with a wry smile: "It is said that noble people tend to forget things. Isn't it true that my brother has forgotten all three of us?"
Only then did Xiao Tang realize that he had missed Yue Fei, Wang Gui and the other four brothers, who were growing the fastest. At this time, they were all past the age when their hair was tied up in buns. In addition, they had not seen each other for many years, so they naturally did not recognize them for a while.
.
"It's true that time has passed by. You brothers are now at a vigorous age. I really don't dare to recognize each other..."
Xiao Tang also sighed with emotion, and then said: "It would be nice to meet you three again here. We will take a short rest here to catch up on old times."
After hearing this, Wang Gui said casually: "Now that you are dead, brother, please rest. I will go back and let you know so that the stewards in the town can be informed."
After speaking quickly, the impatient Wang Gui did not wait for Xiao Tang's reply, he immediately stepped on the stirrups and turned over, and immediately urged the horse to gallop straight towards the direction of Xiao Tang's collection.
Xiao Tang saw Wang Gui's fiery temperament. He and Yan Qing looked at each other with a wry smile and shook their heads. Then they went into the wine shop with Zhang Xian and Tang Huai and found a few seats. While the boy in the shop was taking advantage of it, he put in a few plates of cooked dishes.
When the table was laid, Xiao Tang talked with Zhang Xian and Tang Huai in detail about the major and minor matters that had gathered in the Xiao family over the years.
After all, on their way north from Bianliang, Tokyo, Xiao Tang and Yan Qing had already set up a memorial ceremony for Zhou Tong, sent out funerals, and buried the funeral. Although everyone in the Xiao family was grieving, their moods have calmed down a lot now. However,
Not only did Yue Fei's adoptive father die, but his biological father is also sick and bedridden. I heard from Zhang Xian and Tang Huai that Yue Fei not only built a canopy next to the Dong tomb in Qingsongpo to guard the tomb, but also lived in rough clothes and food every day.
, not to mention the clear soup and lack of water, but also having to run around, taking care of his bedridden father with his mother-in-law, and the strong muscles and bones that had been worked so hard have become much thinner. When Zhang Xian and Tang Huai talked about this, they couldn't help but feel for their sworn brotherhood.
The elder brother is worried and sad.
Xiao Tang nodded silently after hearing this, thinking in his heart: Yue Fei has always been careful in his actions and words, and he will not be ambiguous about loyalty, justice, filial piety and other important matters. Moreover, he is forever separated from his mentor and righteous father, who he is extremely grateful and respected, even if he is surrounded by elders.
, brothers and close friends were worried about him, but it was not easy to comfort him during this period. The sworn brothers around him, such as Wang Gui, Tang Huai, Zhang Xian, etc., had no choice but to accompany him and look after him to prevent him from making any mistakes again.
After talking to each other, Xiao Tang also discovered that Zhang Xian and Tang Huai's current speech and behavior no longer resembled the naughty and naughty tempers of the two of them when they were in Qilin Village, Neihuang County. After all, they are no longer the same.
When they were children, the two of them were much more restrained and polite. It seems that only Wang Gui's reckless temperament still has a bit of the mischievous and naughty little bully he was at that time... Yue Fei, who was already young and mature when he was a child,
, I must be more calm and reserved now, right?
Going back to the narration, Xiao Tang also learned that Wang Gui, Tang Huai, and Zhang Xian were also carefully taught by Zhou Tong. They were encouraged to understand the mysteries of broadswords, hooks, sickles, spears, and spears. They learned from the beginning and were very proficient in the art of bow and horse. Now he is capable enough to stand on his own. Wang Gui and others have also competed against Bian Xiang, who has the most extravagant martial arts skills in the Xiao family. Although the three of them are still not the opponent of Sai Gongming, they can withstand dozens of rounds. Enough to serve as a military officer in the army.
But going on, most of the topics are inseparable from the death of Zhou Tong, Xiao Tang, Yan Qing and Zhang Xian. Tang Huaiyu said that his heart became heavier and he had no appetite for food. He only wanted to cure hunger and relieve hunger after running around for days. After the horses were fed with fodder and rested briefly, everyone set off on the road again, also heading towards Xiaojiaji.
The mountain shadows were deep and the locust trees were gradually disappearing. Xiao Tang and the others had already arrived at their original home. After years of careful management, it was now lined with buildings and pavilions. It was far more lively and prosperous than the southern intersection of Xiaojiaji in Xianchangzhuang Town. Xiao Tang met again. Wang Gui also hurried out of the market town with a group of people to greet him. However, brothers such as Bian Xiang, Xiao Yi, Yang Lin, and Shi Yong did not know the specific date of his brother's return. They had their own errands to take care of every day, so they and Wang Gui rushed out of the market town to greet him. In addition to members Wang, Zhang, Tang and others, there was actually a young woman with a baby in her arms. Xiao Tang looked very unfamiliar.
It's just that although this woman has her hair in a bun and is dressed like a woman, she is only about fourteen or fifteen years old. It seems that she married very early according to the custom of the Song Dynasty. She was still pretty, and Xiao Tang was also sure that he had never met her before. However, after being pointed out by Wang Gui, the woman hurriedly came forward, bowed to Xiao Tang and said, "Wish you all the best for your eldest brother. I also know that your eldest brother is My father-in-law has been blessed with a noble man, and thanks to the blessing of Chen, the whole family can move to the Xiao family where they can live together and have enough food and clothing. The slave family is also grateful to my eldest uncle for his kindness, and today I can finally express my gratitude."
Where is this going?
Not only Xiao Tang, but also Yan Qing, who was always smart and smart next to him, was confused. Originally, Xiao Tang thought that this young woman was a branch of the family of Wang Gui, Zhang Xian, and Tang Huai who moved to the Xiao family. But this young woman called herself her eldest uncle to her face. It was fine that she didn't recognize Wang Gui, who was already in his prime. However, Xiao Tangxin said that he had not heard about the marriage of Bian Xiang, Yang Lin and other brothers in recent years. So where did this "younger brother and sister" who treated me extremely attentively come from?
Although he was very puzzled, the woman in front of him was very eager, so Xiao Tang couldn't help but lose his etiquette. He immediately got off his horse, stepped forward and raised his hands in vain, and while returning the gift, he looked at the baby in the woman's arms who seemed to be smiling. He was less than one year old, but he was born with a tiger-like head and a tiger-like brain. Compared with Xiao Yun, he was stronger and more honest. The pair of black and white moves were very impressive. Although the baby was still very restless in the woman's arms. Wriggling, it seems to be full of energy and particularly active.
When the young woman saw Xiao Tang being polite to her, she was like a country woman who had never seen the world before seeing a noble person. She was flattered and said repeatedly: "Brother, please don't kill the slave family."
Xiao Tang was full of doubts. When Wang Yuanwai, Zhang Yuanwai, Tang Yuanwai and others also came forward to greet them, Xiao Tang returned the greetings to everyone one by one, and then turned his eyes to Wang Gui, Zhang Xian and Tang Huai. Go, and when Zhang Xian saw this, he said: "Brother Xiao doesn't know, but she is also the sister-in-law of several of our brothers. She was just married by brother Yue Fei last year. The infant child is Yue Yun, the child that brother Yue Fei just gave birth to this year. Ordinarily, This kid should also call him Shi Bo."
