Chapter 405 Encounter on the road
Shen Zi sat in the carriage and looked out from the window. It was a good time for spring. The trees on the roadside were all lush, and the fields on both sides were full of green crops. There were a lot of wild flowers growing on the side. Most of them were yellow **, and there seemed to be a faint bitter smell in the air. The fragrance made Shen Ziju's thoughts a little flying.
Being timid in his hometown, this does not exist at all for Shen Ziju. He is dressed in his hometown and returns with great scenery. All he has to do is to raise his head and accept other people's envious eyes and compliments.
Shen Ziju has also been thinking about returning home all the way. The eyes of the villagers will be so different from before, how polite they will be, how happy and excited his parents, brothers, sisters and sisters will be, and what kind of life he will bring to his family. I even thought about renovating my home and taking my family to live in the capital. In a word, all he wants is that he has finally fulfilled his father's wish to show off his ancestors, and can also comfort his mother, who taught him to read and learn when he was a child, and can realize his sister Shen Zhu's dream. All he thinks about is his family.
But getting closer and closer to home, Shen Ziju is thinking more and more about his fourth sister-in-law, Su Zhi.
Su Zhi's warm eyes, soft smile, intelligent words, and the faint fragrance of lotus flowers are gradually lingering in the center of Shen Ziju's brain.
Looking at the little yellow flowers on the roadside, Shen Ziju remembered that last autumn, the open space in front of the green mountains was full of wild **. He was bored reading and went to relax. He happened to see Su Zhi and a group of children in the small yellow flowers. Her smile was so touching. Even the golden yellow did not drown her smile. Rong.
"Five brothers?!"
A cry of surprise interrupted Shen Ziju's memory. He frowned, and then woke up and realized that the voice was calling him his fifth brother. The person who could call him must be his close person. He quickly turned his head back and saw a mule car coming from the back of their car. The mule car was a cart, and there was a man He looked at him with a surprised smile on his face, not someone else, but his eldest brother Shen Zifu!
Shen Zifu went to send vermicelli back. When he saw a carriage in front of him, several people were not ordinary people riding tall horses. He didn't think which rich family or official came out to play, did he? Out of curiosity, he looked over and saw Shen Ziju looking out of the car window. At that time, he only saw a side face. He was a little afraid to recognize it, so he tried to shout. As a result, Shen Ziju was really happy.
"Five brothers! It's really you! You are back! Mom and Dad, we all miss you!"
Shen Zifu looked at this younger brother and was very proud in his heart. He was much bigger than Shen Ziju and almost regarded Shen Ziju as his son, and he did not have the brain to read. He loved Shen Ziju, the younger brother who could read, even more. It can be said that he has been studying for Shen Ziju over the years. He is the most regretless brother in the family. He is very happy to hear that his brother is in high school. Now he is watching his brother return safely, and there is a guard in a carriage, and his smiling eyes are narrowed.
Shen Ziju looked at the eldest brother and was also very happy to talk to Shen Zifu by the window of the car.
"Brother, are you delivering the goods back? How's it going? Is the business in the fourth brother's family better? How are your parents? Are you all right? I miss you too."
"My parents are fine, my brothers and sisters-in-law are fine, and your elder sister's family is also good. I came back to see it a few days ago. Pearl... Pearl is fine, too."
Shen Zifu is really in the limelight these days when he mentions Shen Zhu. Unfortunately, she doesn't have a good reputation, and because of Chunlan, Shen Zifu is now complaining about the sister he loved, and even mentions her in a panic.
Shen Ziju is shrewd and has a keen eye. Shen Zifu is also an honest person who can put joy, anger, sorrow and joy on his face. At a glance, he could see that Shen Zifu was obviously unhappy when he mentioned Shen Zhu, and his heart jumped. He thought that this sister would not have caused something else, right? However, since the eldest brother didn't say it, it was definitely not a good thing. There was a guard in this company, so he didn't ask. He thought that it would naturally be clear when he got home
But Shen Ziju also thought about it. When he goes back, he must not let these attendants have more contact with the villagers. In case it's really a bad thing, it's enough to pass it here, and he can't be taken back to Beijing.
Shen Ziju won the list this time, and because he was old and ugly, he was the most valued by the emperor. And because of the poetry and articles he wrote and the theory of governing the country, he won the emperor's sacred heart, which directly let him enter the Hanlin Academy. He was very satisfied, because the important ministers of the dynasty all came from I think I'm walking on the road of soaring.
So Shen Ziju now attaches more importance to fame. He doesn't want his family's indecent things to be heard by his followers this time. In case someone is not strict and spreads it, he will be humiliated in the capital.
"It's good that everything is fine. I'm outside, and I'm worried that my home is fine now. I'm relieved."
Shen Zi raised his words with a smile.
Shen Zifu thought to himself that his family was in good health, but too many things have happened these days. I'm afraid the fifth brother will not be relieved when he hears it. However, he has also seen outsiders now. It's inconvenient to say that the fifth brother is going to be an official now. In front of those followers, he has to save some face for him. Shen Zifu is still thinking for Shen Zi wholeheartedly. Even if he has separated, he does not expect Shen Ziju to promote his family in the future.
Shen Zifu let his mule cart walk with Shen Ziju's carriage, and the two brothers spoke enthusiastically.
Shen Zifu asked Shen Ziju about what was going on outside. Shen Ziju told him something that was convenient to say outside. Naturally, all the things he said were happy things. Shen Zifu stared at him and was very fascinated.
"Brother, the second brother and the fourth brother are all right now?"
Shen Ziju asked. What else he wanted to hear was about the four rooms, especially the news of Su Zhi. Although he said that he would not care about Su Zhi, he still couldn't help thinking of her and wanted to know her news.
Shen Zifu didn't know what the fifth brother thought. He smiled and said, "It's all good. Your second brother used to deliver the goods like me, but your second sister-in-law is going to give birth recently. He can't leave, so he didn't come out. Your fourth brother and fourth sister-in-law are still as loving as before. Their garden has been repaired again, and a lot of houses have been built inside. The house is better than the houses I saw by the landlords I saw. There are many flowers and trees planted in it, and lotus roots grow in the pond. Now if you go, it will look better than before Their little life was really prosperous. But there is something that is not good...
"What's not good?!"
Shen Ziju asked in a hurry, he forgot all the good things Shen Zifu said before, and only thought about whether something big happened to Su Zhi. He thought that he had come back and must be able to help her, so that she would have a better impression of herself. Although he didn't think about what to do with her, he was willing to do something for her and make her remember himself.
Seeing that Shen Ziju was so anxious that he could not wait to come out of the car window, his heart was warm. He thought that the fifth brother was still enthusiastic. Although the fourth brother and they were not the same mother, they were brothers, and the fifth brother was not superior because his identity had changed. He felt very gratified.
"Don't worry, what I said has nothing to do with your fourth brother and sister-in-law. They are fine. It's about the stars.
It's not good to say, but it's also a good thing. Xing'er's biological parents found him and took him away. Your fourth brother and fourth sister-in-law have been uncomfortable for a while for this matter, and now they have recovered.
Shen Zi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's it. It's a good thing."
Shen Ziju didn't ask much. In his opinion, Xing'er was abducted, and the child who could be abducted would not be a great figure.
Shen Zifu didn't say anything in detail. He is not the kind of person who likes to gossip.
After saying this all the way, I arrived at the riverside village.
Shen Zifu drove away in the carriage first. He had to send a letter to his family to make them happy first.
Several of Shen Ziju's attendants looked at Shen Zifu's mule cart rushing into the village. They were all surprised. They thought that the mule was really good and ran so fast. Just now, when they looked at the oil and smooth water, they thought it was just the surface light, but they didn't expect that it was really good How did they know that this mule was newly added to Shen Zi'an's family. They were all fed with spiritual spring water, which was naturally clever and strong.
Shen Zifu rushed into the village with the mule car. When he saw it on the road, he asked him why he was so happy. He said loudly that his fifth brother was back. When others heard it, this was the return of Master Bangyan. Some went to tell his family and people he knew, some stood on the side of the road and waited, and I went to the house.
"Dad, mother, the fifth brother is back! It's time to enter the village!"
Seeing that Shen Ziping was standing at the door and jumping off the mule car, Shen Zifu gave him the reins and shouted and rushed into the yard.
With just one shout, I heard a sound from several rooms.
In the main room, Shen Youfu rushed out first. Shen Zhang followed, Shen Zhu also came out of her own room, Sun also came out of the room, and Chunhua came out of the kitchen. Several people looked at Shen Zifu with surprises on their faces.
"Zifu, you said your fifth brother is back?! Where is it?! Shen Youfu asked loudly, his whole face turned red, as if he were ten years younger.
Shen Zifu said, "We came back together. I'll come back to report a message first. He will be at the gate in a minute!"
As soon as Shen Youfu and others heard it, they didn't care about Shen Zifu. They all went to the gate. Before they went out, they heard Shen Ziping shouting the fifth brother back outside, and immediately several people left faster. RS
