082 Return to the Family
In Hangzhou Bay, two catamarans stopped on the trestle bridge near the seaside not far from Shanglian Village. Yao Ping took the people and carried them on the boat. After counting the number of people, he put a box of gold prepared in advance. Passed it to Guan Shi Meng, but he didn't open it. Just the weight knew that the amount of money should be correct, so he held the box and left.
Looking at the two boats parked on the trestle bridge, the villagers who did not leave also looked at all this in a strange way. They wanted to live. Apart from relying on relatives and friends, they were left waiting for the help of well-meaning people. As far as people are concerned, now that there are fewer people, it is very easy to want to be helped to survive. There were so many people, not everyone dared to come to rescue them. A mouth can be hundreds of mouths, and now there are fewer than a hundred people. Whoever shows kindness, they can get past, believing that in the future, they will get better.
For the villagers who left, they sold all the land to Xu Zhongliang, which Xu Zhongliang did not expect. The price was not high, which made him a big profit.
As soon as Guanshi Meng came back, he explained the matter to Xu Zhongliang and went to the old house of Xu's house. He had to tell the master about his encounter with Xu Zhongming.
Xu Zhongxian is more than fifty years old. When he heard that his third brother was still alive, his eyes turned red. He and Xu Zhongming were a female compatriot. His third brother was smart since childhood, and he didn’t have any daughters from the Yan family. Xu Zhongming must be able to do so. A promising prospect, but in the end, his father removed the family tree for disregarding family reputation and life and death. In order to give an explanation to the Yan family, Xu Zhongxian was also very relieved to hear that he was still alive in the past two decades.
"Meng Chang, how good is your third brother?"
"Master, the third master is okay, the young one asked the Li family's servants, and now the third master is the head of the mountain in the school opened by the Li family, and he has a pair of children."
Hearing this news, Xu Zhongxian was relieved a lot, and even more moved. He has only two daughters, both of whom are already married. Although the second child has a boy, the second child is a concubine after all and has no right to inheritance. Now Xu Zhongming has a son. As long as this nephew follows his father Xu Zhongming, the Xu family will have an heir in the future.
He then asked: "Where is the wife of the third brother?"
"Master, I heard that the third master has been dead for many years, and the third master has not renewed."
Hearing this, Xu Zhongxian also had to sigh with emotion: "Oh! This is fate, the third brother seems to really love the Yan family. Meng Chang, you can arrange it and let me go to Yangzhou in two days. I'm going to meet the third brother."
"Yes, Master."
On the sea boat, Mu Jiande looked at Shanglian Village in a daze. This is the place where he grew up and lived. Nowadays, I am afraid that there is no possibility of coming back. Cai'er on the side saw that he was a little lost and asked: "Da Lang, what are you thinking about?"
Turning his head, Mu Jiande looked at Cai'er, held her hands, and said, "From now on, we will be a family. I will let you live a good life."
Cai'er nodded slightly to Mu Jiande, then leaned her head on his chest, and also looked sideways at Shanglian Village, which has been getting farther and farther away. This is where she lived since she was a child. Such a parting will finally return. Is a little bit reluctant.
When these people arrived at Lijiazhuang, Li You began to arrange the preparations for the southward trip. Two days later, he planned to take the people to Nanling first. He hoped to be able to reach the southern end of Liuqiu at the end of this month. With good luck, there will be there this year. forming.
When the Li family's fleet left Yangzhou, Xu Zhongxian came to Lijiazhuang. Xu Zhongming was surprised at his elder brother's visit. In the living room of the family, Xu Zhongming took Xu Chengrui and Xu Ying to visit his elder brother.
"Little brother, elder brother.", "Cheng Rui, elder brother.", "Yingying, elder brother."
"You don’t need to be polite. I can see my third brother again today. I am so relieved. I never thought that your sons and daughters have grown up like this. Okay, okay!" After that, Xu Zhongxian took out two pieces of jade pendant and gave it to him. Xu Chengrui and Xu Ying.
"This is the meeting gift the uncle gave you, take it."
When Xu Zhongming saw him, he hurriedly said, "Brother, this is the Xu family's token."
He was out of the Xu family back then, knowing that he would definitely not be able to go back, and now suddenly seeing the jade pendant given by his elder brother, he was naturally a little surprised. This jade pendant is the status symbol of the Xu family. Xu Zhongming knows what it means, that is, his elder brother has recognized the identity of his children, that is to say, he will also be recognized by the elder brother and will be re-accepted by the Xu family.

"My third brother, my father had no other choice but to save your name. More than 20 years have passed since then. My father is dead. Now that the eldest brother is the head of the family, he naturally becomes the owner."
Xu Zhongxian’s words really brought down Xu Zhongming’s tears, and he knelt down to Xu Zhongming, sobbing: "Big brother... .. I was reckless back then. Sorry father. I haven’t seen my father’s death. On the one hand, ashamed of being a son of man... ."
Xu Zhongxian helped Xu Zhongming up and said, "My third brother, although my father has passed away, my mother is still watching you return home. My mother is getting older. I have not told my mother about your whereabouts. I want you to give it to my mother. A surprise, Ruier and Yingying should also meet their grandmother." New Bayi Chinese website first published
Hearing this, Xu Zhongming said with shame: "My eldest brother said, I will go back and ask my mother for sin."
Xu Zhongxian nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "This time I go back, I will rectify your names and add your names to the genealogy. My father will think of you much before his death. When you go back, I will let people be here. In front of my father’s monument, engrave your names."
Xu Zhongming once again thanked him and said: "Little brother, thank you elder brother."
"A family, why do you have to say two words, and why bother to thank you? Okay, you clean up, and then follow me back to see my mother."
Although Xu Zhongming thought about going home, he knew that it was impossible. He could go back now. For him, it was a big deal. He had been wandering for more than 20 years and he had never seen his mother again. Now he can go back and have a look. Mother, he was really excited.
This is also true for Xu Chengrui and Xu Ying. They know what is going on in their home, and they are naturally happy to see their grandmother. The three immediately tidied up. Finally, Xu Zhongming went to the back house again, found Li Yao, and talked about the matter. After all, his trip took at least half a month.
After listening, Li Yao also congratulated him before saying: "It's a good thing that Mr. Changde can go back to visit his mother. It's a good thing about the school. Mr. Don't worry, I will arrange it. Mr. Don't worry."
Xu Zhongming bowed his hand and said: "Then thank you Madam, I will return after half a month."
"Mr. does not need to be like this. You have not seen your mother in more than 20 years. Stay longer and spend more time with the elderly. Mister here does not have to worry."
Xu Zhongming nodded, bowed to Li Yao, and said, "Thank you, Madam, then I will leave."
The Li family, Xu Zhongming will not leave. The Li family has given him too much help. If there is no Li family, let alone his life, maybe his sons and daughters have become a base or a slave. This kindness It's too big, and in addition to teaching in the academy for the past few years, he has also found his own way. He feels that teaching is what he can do in his life.
After leaving Li Yao, Xu Zhongming took his sons and daughters to the Yangzhou Ferry with his eldest brother. Two days later, he could see his mother who had been away for more than 20 years. (End of this chapter)
