Chapter 426 What a Pride This Is
The Chen family occupies a lot of land, but there are only five houses. Chen Sancai wanted to give up the couple's main room, but Fang Xing shook his head and only asked for a side room. Hunting Wen' Net WwΩW. Ω Lie Wen. CC
"Husband, who is here?"
Osmanthus fragrans heard the stranger's voice, so she came out of the kitchen and asked.
Fang Xing cupped his hands with a smile and said, "Sister-in-law, we are tourists, we missed our place, sorry to bother you."
Osmanthus fragrans murmured after hearing the words: "There is not much rice at home..."
"You frustrated girl, why don't you hurry up and cook?"
Chen Sancai stepped forward, cursing, rolled his eyes vigorously, and then shouted: "Quickly kill a chicken, and there is still wine, if there is anything less, I will divorce you!"
When Osmanthus fragrans heard the words, her brows stood upright and she was about to tear it up, but when she saw Chen Sancai's right hand raised in front of her, she fixed her eyes on what was in his hand, and immediately said aggrievedly: "Yes, husband."
When Xin Laoqi heard this, he wanted to argue, but Fang Xing said softly, "This is life!"
Xin Laoqi felt that Fang Xing's words contained some memories and comfort, so he glanced in surprise.
Fang Xing's expression was full of memories. Here, he finally unloaded some things.
There is an osmanthus tree planted in the yard, which is very old, and its huge canopy almost blocks one-third of the yard.
"This must be a good place to enjoy the shade in summer."
Fang Xing patted the trunk of the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, eyes dazed.
——Is the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in my hometown still there?
"The nobleman is indeed wise."
When Chen Sancai came out, he said proudly: "This sweet-scented osmanthus tree was planted by Xiao's ancestors, and it is the only one in the village. Lian Xiao's wife got her name from it."
"Oh, is it so?"
Fang Xing saw Dawa hiding behind the main hall door and looking at him timidly, so he waved to him and said with a smile, "Come on, I have candies here."
Chen Sancai was about to decline a few words, but when he saw that Fang Xing had already figured out something, he cursed at the big boy who was hiding half of his face outside the door: "My lord wants to give you candy,
Get out now! "
The eldest baby saw the candy in Fang Xing's hand, he licked his lips, and tentatively walked out.
Fang Xing squatted on the ground, and when he came over, he stuffed more than a dozen candies into his hands, rubbed the top of his head and said, "Don't eat too much, or your teeth will rot."
Although Chen Sancai didn't know this kind of Bai Shengsheng's candy, he knew that it must be expensive, so he pressed the big baby's head and shouted: "Kowtow to the nobleman!"
The eldest baby was staggered by the pressure, and was about to fall down. Fang Xing stretched out his hand to help him, and said with a smile, "Kowtow for no reason! Go and play."
After the big boy ran out with the candy, Chen San chased after him and scolded: "Big baby, if you have something good, go and show it off, come back! Come back to me!"
Fang Xing looked at the back of the eldest baby, and the memory in his eyes became more intense.
Xin Laoqi didn't know what Fang Xing was looking at, so he went to the wing room with Xiao Dao to clean it up.
Gradually many stars appeared in the night sky, Fang Xing sat under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, looking up through the branches and leaves.
The galaxy is brilliant, and those twinkling stars seem to hang in the night sky since ancient times, silently swaying the starlight, watching the joys and sorrows of the world.
"Mother...Mother, you come home with me, mother..."
Fang Xing slowly closed his eyes...
Xin Laoqi and Xiaodao came out, seeing Fang Xing's appearance, Xin Laoqi pulled a small knife, and the two went to the kitchen lightly.
"Yo... the two nobles are worried..."
Osmanthus fragrans was pulling chicken feathers with hot water, when she saw Xin Laoqi and the other two coming in, she raised her eyebrows and said.
"Be quiet!"
Xiaodao pointed at Fang Xing who was in the yard, his smiling face became a little dignified.
Since he didn't know why Fang Xing was in a bad mood, Xiaodao could only try to calm Fang Xing as much as possible.
Sweet-scented osmanthus pouted her mouth, pulled chicken feathers in her hand, thought disdainfully in her heart: these noble people don't worry about food or clothing, why are they inexplicably worried?
The main course of dinner was stewed chicken with dried bamboo shoots. Chen Sancai brought out a jar of good wine from the cellar at home, and graciously persuaded him to drink.
Xin Laoqi and Xiaodao saw Fang sober up to the end of his glass, but his eyes became more and more confused as he drank more, they couldn't help looking at each other, not knowing how to persuade him.
At the end of the drink, Chen Sancai fell drunk, but Fang Xing still looked like that.
"Go to sleep."
Xin Laoqi and Xiaodao sleep in the firewood room, and they don't want to enter the wing room.
Fang Xing just smiled and went to bed.
...
"Little Pig went back with Daddy, Mother is working here, and will be home soon..."
Fang Xing suddenly sat up straight, his body was already dripping with sweat.
In the dark night, Fang Xing covered his face with his hands, trembling slightly.
The moonlight poured on the stone table through the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, and the black and white spots swayed in the wind. A finger touched the white spot and did not move for a long time.
Fang Xing just stood under the tree, staring at the night sky bewilderedly.
"mom……"
The stars twinkle like a gentle smiling face.
"Water, give me water..."
"Husband, drink slowly..."
"Go, see if the big baby has dropped the quilt."
"It's not lost, my husband, go to bed quickly."
"I can't sleep! I think that the eldest child is almost at the age of going to school, but the family can't afford it... Hey! I'm a worthless father!"
"Sir, don't think about it too much. I'll pick up some weaving work tomorrow. I'll get better. Go to sleep."
"Well, I'll also see if I can open up a few more plots of land, and I still have money to save for the eldest son to marry a wife, let's go to sleep..."
"I'll go and see the eldest baby, husband, go to sleep."
The night dew was heavy, and Fang Xing's body was wet. He heard the sound of sweet-scented osmanthus moving, the sound of the big baby smacking his mouth, and the sound of gently patting the quilt...
After the first cock crow, Chen Sancai and his wife got up.
"Is your lord still asleep?"
Chen Sancai asked when he saw Xin Laoqi and Xiaodao moving their bodies in the yard.
Xiaodao pointed to the outside and said: "My master has gone out for a stroll, we are not allowed to follow."
Chen Sancai hurriedly complimented: "The nobleman is indeed a nobleman, and the time spent walking around is different!"
Fang Xing had already wandered far away, and was watching by the side of an abandoned small river.
The mist shrouded the surrounding fields, and the hill in front of it that was cut off from the middle looked faintly visible, like a fairyland.
"This is Pogangdu. Don't look at the size of the mountain. Back then, tens of thousands of people from Sun Wu came to excavate it, and even dug up the dragon!"
Fang Xing turned around and saw an energetic old man standing behind him, he hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Morning, old man."
Seeing Fang Xing's pale face, the old man frowned and said, "The young man looks a little weak!"
Fang Xing said with a smile: "He has just recovered from a serious illness, and he didn't sleep well last night, so his complexion is a little bit worse."
"I see."
The old man also seemed to be out for a walk, and introduced the history of this place to Fang Xing.
"This Pogangdu was usable before, and it could lead to the river! But later, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty felt that the dragon veins in this place had been dug up, so he simply demolished Jiankang City, and Pogangdu was abolished."
Fang Xing looked at the hill in the mist, and asked with interest: "Old man, do you really think there are dragons here?"
The old man blew his beard and stared: "Why not? If there is no dragon, how can Sun Wu establish a country in Jiangdong?"
As soon as the subject changed, the old man sighed and said, "It's a pity that Sun Quan's children don't know how to dig randomly, so the dragon ran away, and later Cao Cao was taken advantage of."
Fang Xing felt that something was touched in his mind, and asked, "Then what race do you think we should be, old man?"
The old man looked at Fang Xing with disdain and said, "I've lived here for generations. We work at sunrise and return at sunset. Besides Que Rong and Di, we are all of us. What kind of clan do we want?"
Fang Xing seemed to hear a loud noise, and suddenly the ancestors overcame obstacles, fought with nature, fought with wild beasts, and fought with Rongdi who led beasts and cannibals in his mind...
"Is this young man hysterical?"
Seeing that Fang Xing was in a daze, the old man thought he was hysterical, so he hurried out of the way.
And Fang Xing still stayed there.
Cangjie coined the character "Jie of Heaven and Earth", and ghosts and gods howled for it, because he opened a door.
Shennong tasted all kinds of herbs, so that the ancestors could get rid of the invasion of diseases and thrive.
——Except for Rong Di, we are all of us, what a pride!
