"Third brother, why are you so excited?"
Boss Xu was very calm, "If the third brother and sister are pregnant, will it make any difference whether you go back or not?"
"This is definitely different!"
Xu Laosan stared.
"Brother, don't say anything, just wait for me!"
Xu Laosan stopped talking nonsense to Boss Xu and ran away.
…
In just a quarter of an hour, Xu Laosan asked for leave from his master and appeared in front of his eldest brother out of breath.
"Brother, let's go!"
Xu Laosan looked at Boss Xu with great interest, with such a beaming expression that people who didn't know thought he had encountered some great happy event.
Boss Xu sighed and said, "Okay!"
Thinking about it, when his wife was pregnant, he probably, maybe, should have looked like this. Unfortunately, it has been almost two years and I only have one son.
But don't worry, they are still young and have a long life ahead of them.
The two brothers went hand in hand, soon bought all the cotton and fabrics, and set out on their way home.
When passing the city gate, Boss Xu was surrounded by the soldiers of the town army again. They greeted him and gave the brothers a lunch of meat and vegetables.
"Brother, how do you know these people?"
"Why didn't I know this before?"
Xu Laosan was really surprised by his eldest brother's wide circle of friends.
Boss Xu chuckled and said, "There are many things you don't know!"
"Well, this is what happened last time. Didn't our father and son pick up a wooden box in the mountains? It was the same batch of tributes twenty years ago... "
Boss Xu is still very good at telling stories. Along the way, I heard him telling Lao Xu about this matter. What was originally a simple matter made Xu Laosan stunned for a moment.
"Our father did the right thing!"
When he heard that Mr. Xu didn't want the hundred taels of silver rewarded by the county magistrate, Mr. Xu nodded in agreement.
Boss Xu shook his head noncommittally and said, "Third brother, do you think there are still people from the previous dynasty?"
"It's hard to say!"
Although Xu Laosan cannot be called a sage who only reads books from sages, he does not know much about current affairs.
"I don't think there's much left!"
"Now that we are living a happy life, who would be stupid and miss those people from the previous dynasty?"
Boss Xu said to himself, "Our father is just too careful!"
"Brother, this is wrong, be careful and you won't make a big mistake!"
However, Xu Laosan disagreed very much with his elder brother's remarks, "There is an old saying that a hundred-footed insect dies but does not freeze."
"It's better to believe that this kind of thing exists than to believe that it doesn't exist."
"Otherwise, once something goes wrong, no matter how much you regret, it won't help!"
After hearing what Xu Laosan said, Mr. Xu smacked his lips and said, "That's right. Anyway, our family's life is not bad now. With these one hundred taels, but without these one hundred taels, it's just like that." !”
These days, there are really not many people who can eat meat every day.
Based on their family's current luck, these one hundred taels are just a small fortune.
Soon, the brothers arrived in the town.
He went straight to Dr. Zhong’s medical clinic and invited Dr. Zhong to accompany him.
Mr. Xu helped carry the old doctor's medicine box, while Mr. Xu carried the cloth and cotton bought from the county town.
After returning to Lingshui Village from Sanhe Town, Xu Laosan's joy at returning home was quickly diluted by the results of Dr. Zhong's pulse diagnosis. (End of chapter)
