The famous book tour starting from the Red House

Chapter 372 Convincing Mother Yang
Seeing this, Zhu Wu on the side hurriedly reminded Mu Xu, "Brother, you must have scared that kid by saying that."

Mu Xu immediately realized that this Yang Zaixing is just a ten-year-old brat now, and what he has done, in his eyes, is no different from those strange uncles who deceived children in later generations.

"Brother Yang Zhi asked me to look for his clansmen who were away, but seeing him suddenly today, I couldn't help but get carried away for a while." Mu Xu laughed and explained indiscriminately to several people.

Although a few people knew that Mu Xu was telling lies, no one would be so ignorant to expose it. Instead, they praised Mu Xu's righteousness, Bo Yuntian and so on.In the end, Wu Song couldn't see the faces of several people, so he interrupted their flattery and asked Mu Xu,

"Brother, do you want to find the boy surnamed Yang first, or Mrs. Zhao's younger brother first?"

Mu Xu pondered for a while, then replied, "Go to Yang's house first, and by the way, I can inquire about Zhang Shuisheng's whereabouts."

As he spoke, Mu Xu stopped a child, rewarded the child with a piece of silver, and asked Yang Zaixing's home address from him.

According to what the child said, under the watchful eyes of the villagers, several people walked through the entire village, and finally came to a small farmyard on the outskirts of the village.

It is said to be a small farmyard, but in fact it is just two adobe houses lined up in east and west, the courtyard walls are simple fences, and there are three or five old hens in the courtyard, looking for food.

Before they went in, they saw Yang Zaixing coming out of Dongshou's room with a broken bowl. As soon as he saw Mu Xu and the others, he immediately put the bowl at his feet, picked up a hatchet from the door of the room, and Like a newborn calf, cried,

"You kidnapper, you are so courageous. You dare to chase after me and never leave. Don't blame the young master for being rude!"

When Mu Xu heard that the boy regarded him as a human trafficker, his face darkened. He glared at the snickering Ruan Xiaoqi and the others, put on a smile, and was about to explain when a woman in the room asked weakly. Said, "Xing'er, who are you talking to?"

Accompanied by the voice, a woman with a sallow face and wearing a linen skirt came out. When she saw Mu Xu and the others, she was taken aback for a moment, then saluted and asked, "Are the officials busy?"

Without waiting for Mu Xu to reply, that boy Yang Zaixing interjected, "Mother, that leader is a kidnapper, just now he tried to trick me into following him!"

The woman seemed quite knowledgeable, and immediately shouted, "Don't talk nonsense, how could this high official be a kidnapper, he sold more than ten slaves for his outfit."

After teaching her son a lesson, she said to Mu Xu again, "Mr. Yang and Li have seen the high-ranking officials, but I don't know why the officials took away the sons of the women."

Mu Xu glanced at the fence door that was not as high as his waist, and asked, "Can you go in and talk?"

Mrs. Yang Li hesitated for a while, nodded and said, "It's the women who are rude, please come in, senior officials."

Mu Xu thanked and told Zhu Wu to wait outside the courtyard. He entered the courtyard alone and sat on the small stool under the eaves with the mother and son of the Yang family. Only then did he talk about his purpose.
"Today I went to Guicun to look for a lost relative, and just now I accidentally saw that your son was wielding a gun from the Yang family, so I became interested, asked him a few words, and learned that you are a branch of the Yang family in Tianbo Prefecture. Seeing that your son is a man who can be made, I came up with the idea of ​​taking him away, and I ask Madam to forgive me for your presumptuousness."

Mrs. Yang smiled wryly, "Our house has been separated from the generation of Xing'er's great-grandfather, how can we dare to climb up to the Yang family in Tianbo Mansion?"

Mu Xu seemed resentful when he heard this, so he couldn't help asking, "Excuse me for talking too much, is there a misunderstanding between your two families?"

Mrs. Yang and Li were silent for a long while, stroked her son's hair, and replied, "my husband used to be the governor of Jishui, Jiangnan West Road. He got a sudden illness a few years ago and spent all his family money. The women had no choice but to write I sent a distress letter, together with the transcribed genealogy, and sent it to Tokyo. I wanted to ask the host family to show kindness. Unexpectedly, I entrusted three people in a row, but there was no news. I thought the host family would not recognize me. .”

Hearing this, Mu Xu breathed a sigh of relief, and explained to Yang Li, "Ma'am, you are wrong. The Yang family in Bofu was defeated long ago. Now there is only one person left in this generation. A few years ago, he was fighting in the Western Army. Therefore, the person entrusted by Madam is afraid that they will not be able to find the Yang family after arriving in Tokyo, so they will not be able to reply to you, so they put this matter aside, resulting in a misunderstanding."

"Ah, is that so?" Li Shi Yang was startled, and then burst into tears, "Okay, that's good, I will burn incense to my husband later, and tell him that the master has not forgotten him, and he is still a general of the Yang family. successor."

When Mrs. Yang and Li calmed down, Mu Xu continued, "It was my suggestion just now. I don't know what Madam would like?"

Yang Lishi glanced at his son, and asked a little puzzled, "My son is just stronger than his peers. Why do high officials value him so much?"

Mu Xu laughed and said, "Ma'am is wrong again, your son is a natural general, and he will grow up to be one of the most powerful generals in the world. How can we let him submit to the countryside? Isn't this burying talents?

Furthermore, my wife seems to be seriously ill, if there is no holiday, what should I do if I leave my son alone?It's not the case if you go to my place, not only can you better cultivate him to become a talent, but you can also take care of your wife.Don't madam want to see that your son will be famous all over the world in the future, honoring his ancestors? "

"This..." Mrs. Yang and Li hesitated, but when Yang Zaixing heard that he could heal his mother, he couldn't help but said, "Mother, I want to go with this official, as long as he promises to cure your illness."

As soon as this remark came out, Yang Li immediately burst into tears, hugged her son and cried, "It's all the parents' fault. My son has to support his parents at such a young age."

After crying for a long time, the mother and son separated. Mrs. Yang and Li bowed to Mu Xu, without asking where Mu Xu wanted to take their mother and son, and said, "As long as it is true as the officials said, I can raise my son well." , that woman has nothing to do with it." After she finished speaking, she ordered Yang Zaixing to kowtow to Mu Xu.

Yang Zaixing was obedient, and without saying a word, he knelt down and kowtowed to Mu Xu three times. If he wanted to kowtow again, he grabbed Mu Xu and said, "You don't need to be so polite, there is gold under your knees." In the future, except for the parents of heaven and earth, don't kowtow to others at will."

"Yes, I remember!"

Seeing Yang Zaixing Zheng nodded, Mu Xu smiled in satisfaction, and immediately said to Li Jun, "Brother Li Junxian, take the two brothers from the Tong family and go to Jingzhou Mansion, invite a doctor to come, and buy another, no, two Here comes the carriage."

Li Jun responded, and took the Tong family brothers to go, but Yang Li hurriedly declined, "You don't need to spend so much money for high officials, and it's okay for civilian women."

But Mu Xu shook his head and said, "We are going to Shandong, and the journey is very high and the road is far away. We should find a doctor to treat Madam, so that there will be no trouble on the way."

While talking, Mu Xu saw that Yang Zaixing was staring at the knife on his waist, so he untied it and handed it to him, "This knife is given to you. I hope you can hold this knife in the future to bring the world back to life again." Know the prestige of the Yang family general."

Yang Zaixing glanced at his mother first, and seeing that she had no objection, he happily took the saber, carefully pulled out a section of the saber, and watched it carefully.

Mrs. Yang Li looked at her son lovingly. After a while, she remembered something and asked Mu Xu, "The high officials said they want to find relatives, so why not tell the women. This is the women's natal home after all. We still know each other."

"It couldn't be better. The person I'm looking for is Zhang, and his nickname is Shuisheng."

"The official is looking for Brother Shuisheng?" Yang Zaixing asked after hearing that he recognized the person Mu Xu was looking for.

Mu Xu was overjoyed, touched the top of Yang Zaixing's head, and said with a smile, "Tell me, how old is the brother Shuisheng you are talking about, and has he married yet?"

Yang Zaixing didn't struggle, and replied honestly, "Brother Shuisheng is [-] years old..."

"Twenty-one this year." Seeing that her son couldn't explain clearly, Yang Li hurriedly reminded him.

"Yes, yes, Brother Shuisheng is twenty-one years old and has a daughter named Da Ya, who is four years old this year." Yang Zaixing replied in a hurry, fearing that his mother would rob him again.
