Rebirth: the fiery age of Mori Gong's children

Chapter 443 The Qin Family's Heirloom

Brother Wu Bingzhong had a good chat with brothers Sheng Xiping and stayed at home to have dinner.

Wu's nanny got the hostess's instruction and specially added extra dishes. The dinner was very sumptuous.

Wu Bingzhong also specially asked someone to bring out two bottles of Maotai and have a few drinks with the Sheng Xiping brothers.

After dinner, the Sheng brothers sat for a while and then stood up to say goodbye.

"Okay, that's it for today. Since Xiping has important matters going south, we can't keep you for too long, so I wish you a smooth trip.

If you encounter any difficulties, you can call home.

Some of the old man’s old subordinates, as well as several of my adopted brothers, many of whom are in the southern provinces, can help. "Wu Bingzhong stood up to see him off and said to Sheng Xiping.

After chatting for so long, Wu Bingzhong already understood what Sheng Xiping was doing in the capital this time.

His words were somewhat sincere, but of course they were more polite.

"Thank you uncle. If there is something that cannot be solved, you must disturb your uncle." Sheng Xiping did not take Wu Bingzhong's words seriously.

Even if Sheng Xikang passed the second level today and was barely qualified to get along with Wu Yuhua, it is still unknown whether the two of them can get together in the future.

They were just being polite, and anyone who took it seriously would be a fool.

Brothers Wu Yuqing and Wu Yuhua followed him out of the gate.

It could be seen that Wu Yuhua was very happy today. He dragged Sheng Xikang and chatted for a while before they separated.

It's quite late. Wu's house is quite far from the school, and there are no buses at this time.

So the Wu family arranged for a driver to take the Sheng brothers back.

When they arrived at the place, Sheng Xiping thanked the driver and turned around to give instructions to Sheng Xikang.

“Go back to school and have a good class, don’t focus all your attention on your partner.

No matter who you get along with in the future, you must know what you can say and what you cannot say.

Well, I'm leaving tomorrow, I have to go home first. "

"Ah? Go home? Brother, aren't you going to the south? Why do you have to go home again?"

Sheng Xikang was about to nod when he suddenly heard his eldest brother saying he wanted to go home, and he was stunned. what does this mean?

Sheng Xiping took a deep breath and resisted the urge to kick someone.

"Why are you going home? I'm helping you find Dengxuan sheep's blood.

Didn’t you see what the old man of the Wu family looked like? If Xuan Yang's blood is really useful, the Wu family owes us a huge favor.

No matter whether you and Wu Yuhua make it or not in the future, the Wu family will always be polite to you. "

As for Mr. Wu, if he lives a few more years, the descendants of the Wu family will be blessed for a few more years.

Although Mr. Wu is still alive at the moment, he can't move, has difficulty speaking, and can play almost no role.

If Mr. Wu can recover, even if he does not participate in anything, with him in charge for a few more years, the Wu family can reach a higher level.

Mr. Wu's recovery is crucial to the Wu family, so Wu Bingzhong and Wu Bingyi were so excited when Sheng Xiping mentioned Xuan Yang's blood.

If the Sheng family can really help find Xuan Yang's blood and Mr. Wu benefits from it, then the Sheng family can be regarded as the Wu family's benefactor.

This will be of great help to the marriage between Sheng Xikang and Wu Yuhua.

For the sake of his younger brother, Sheng Xiping had to delay his plan to go south and go home first to find Xuan Yang's blood.

"Brother, do you know where there is Xuan Yang's blood?" Sheng Xikang opened his mouth wide and looked at his elder brother in disbelief. "Is this really possible?"

Sheng Xiping glared at his younger brother, "Just leave it alone, I'll go back and figure out a solution."

Of course he knew where it was, but he couldn't tell right now.

The third child is such a big talker. If he talks now, he will tell Wu Yuhua tomorrow.

The key is that this thing is not in Sheng Xiping's hands, and he doesn't know if he can persuade the other party. How can Sheng Xiping easily say something that he is not sure about?

"Keep this matter to yourself and don't talk about it outside. Even if it's with your partner, keep your mouth shut.

Third child, you are going to work soon. The nature of your work determines that you must know what confidentiality is.

If you can't do it, well, that's it for the rest of your life. "

Sheng Xiping rarely takes on the role of an eldest brother to discipline his younger brothers.

Especially the third child, he always felt that this kid was smart and thorough, so he didn't need to worry too much.

Now it seems that the third child is still too young and lacks experience.

"Oh, I got it, brother." Sheng Xikang understood that the elder brother was doing it for his own good, so he nodded quickly.

"Brother, thank you for your hard work. Because of my affairs, your plan to go south to make money was delayed." Sheng Xikang felt a little sorry.

"Stop talking nonsense, what are your brothers talking about? You are good, you are better than anything else.

Besides, I also admire Mr. Wu and I am happy to contribute to him. "

Such an old hero deserves everyone's respect. Sheng Xiping was willing to work hard for Mr. Wu.

All that needed to be said was said, so the two brothers separated and went back to rest.

Early the next morning, Sheng Xiping packed up his things and checked out of the room, went straight to the train station, bought a return train ticket, and took the bus back to Tonghua.

Then he returned to Songjianghe from Tonghua and got off the train. Sheng Xiping didn't even go back to his home. He tried to find a car and went straight back to the forest farm.

By the time he arrived at the forest farm, it was already dark around five o'clock.

Zhang Shuzhen was cooking when she suddenly heard her dog chirping, followed by the sound of footsteps. She stretched her head and took a look outside, and was immediately stunned.

"Boss? Didn't you say you were going to the south? Why haven't you left yet?"

"Mom, I arrived in the capital and came back because of something urgent."

Sheng Xiping entered the room, threw his large backpack on the kang, turned around and walked out.

"Mom, I'll tell you in detail later. I'll go to my master first."

After Sheng Xiping said these words, he went out in a hurry, leaving Zhang Shuzhen staring at her son's back, dumbfounded for a long time.

"What is this kid doing? He walked in, dropped his things and left, as if he had taken out a fire."

Zhang Shuzhen shook her head as she opened the lid of the pancake jar and took out a stack of pancakes from inside.

She and her two grandsons were the only ones at home, and they didn't have much to eat, so Zhang Shuzhen didn't cook much.

My son suddenly came back and found that he had no time to make rice, so he had to dust off some pancakes to deal with the meal.

Zhang Shuzhen was preparing dinner at home, but Sheng Xiping was striding to the large alkali field at this time. He had to go to his master and his wife to ask about Xuan Yang's blood.

Yes, the Liu family has Xuan Yang blood, which is a treasure passed down from Qin Qiuyan's natal family.

It is said that the Qin family also came through Guandong, but they came early.

Because ancestor Qin Qiu and Yan had offended someone and committed a crime, he fled all the way to Guandong and lived in hiding in the deep mountains and old forests.

The ancestors of the Qin family were good at martial arts and skilled in bow and horse, so they made a living by hunting in this mountain.

When Sheng Xiping was a child, she once heard Qin Qiuyan lament that her father, Qin Sanpao, had died when someone carried him back.

As long as he can persevere, if he can drink this xuanyang blood, he might be able to save his life.

After all these years, Sheng Xiping didn't know if the Qin family still had Xuan Yang blood. For the sake of his younger brother, he could only go and find out.

Sheng Xiping was anxious and didn't bother to buy anything, so he went straight to Liu's house.

"Xiping is here? Oh no, didn't your mother say you went to the south? You haven't left yet?" Liu Changde and his wife were stunned when they saw Sheng Xiping.

They also heard about Sheng Xiping's job loss at the Great Alkali Field. They went to inquire about it that day and found out that Sheng Xiping and his wife had moved to Songjiang River, and that Sheng Xiping was going south to make money.

So seeing Sheng Xiping now, the old couple felt strange.

"Master, Mistress, something happened to me when I was halfway down the road. I have no choice but to come back first." Sheng Xiping said straightforwardly.

"What happened? Master, can you help? As long as master can help, just ask."

When Liu Changde heard this, he understood that Sheng Xiping was in trouble and probably came to the Liu family for help.

"Son, please sit down first and speak slowly. Don't be anxious. No matter what happens, we will just slowly find a way to solve it.

Your master and I are old, and your eldest and second brothers are still here, so it’s okay. "Qin Qiuyan waved to Sheng Xiping and asked him to sit down first.

"Master, Mistress, what's going on is that the third child in our family has found a partner in the capital."

Master and master are almost like biological parents, so Sheng Xiping doesn't have to hide them.

He told the Wu family who the third child was dating Wu Yuhua and how Sheng Xiping got there, to Liu Changde and his wife.

When Sheng Xiping talked about Mr. Wu, the expression on Liu Changde's face changed and he seemed shocked.

When Sheng Xiping told him that Mr. Wu had fought in the Northeast and participated in the Siping Defense War, Liu Changde suddenly stood up from the kang.

"Xiping, how old is the person you are talking about and what is his name?"

Liu Changde's face turned red with excitement, his hands were shaking, and his voice was trembling a little.

"Master, what's wrong with you? Come on, sit down quickly. Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

When Sheng Xiping saw Liu Changde like this, he was so frightened that he hurriedly got on the kang, supported his master, and kept rubbing Liu Changde's chest and back with his hands, for fear that something would happen if he was too excited.

After all, he is still in his sixties, so he cannot be too emotional.

"No, I'm fine. Xiping, tell me quickly, how old is Mr. Wu? Do you know his name?"

Liu Changde didn't care about anything else at this time. He only held Sheng Xiping firmly with both hands and asked excitedly.

"He looks about seventy-four or five years old, right? What's your name? I don't have the nerve to ask."

Sheng Xiping didn't know why the master was so excited, so he could only support Liu Changde and said comfortingly.

"Then, what does he look like? What are the characteristics of his face?" Liu Changde became more and more excited, his hands shaking violently.

"He is a very majestic old man, but he has a very obvious scar on his face."

As Sheng Xiping spoke, he marked the location of the scar on his face.

"Captain, that's our captain. Xiping, that's my captain.

The scar on his face was left when he saved me during the Siping Defense War. "Liu Changde suddenly started crying, crying very sadly.

"In that battle, we suffered heavy casualties, and many of our comrades died. If our regiment commander hadn't rushed to protect me, I would have died under the enemy's fire. But the regiment commander was injured in order to save me, and his face looked... Yes, it was scratched by the cannonball skin and almost hurt my eyes."

"I'm sorry for our leader. Later, when all of Northeast China was liberated, he and I asked for leave to go home to visit relatives, but we never went back."

Liu Changde squatted on the kang, holding his head and crying loudly.

The children Liu Qiang, Liu Peng and others who were doing homework in the room were shocked when they saw their grandfather acting like this.

To be honest, Sheng Xiping was also dumbfounded.

He had often heard his master talk about past wars, but he had never seen his master cry so sadly.

Back then, Liu Changde's lifelong regret was that he failed to return to the army in time to fulfill his filial piety.

Over the years, Liu Changde has never forgotten his comrades and leaders.

But time has changed, and some of the people from that time have died on the battlefield, and some have changed jobs and returned to their hometowns, and they can't be contacted at all.

After so many years, Liu Changde suddenly learned the news about his old friend. One can imagine how complicated Liu Changde's mood was at this moment.

"This, is this too coincidental? Master, are you sure?" Sheng Xiping asked tentatively.

"It's him, it must be him, our leader."

Liu Changde wiped away his tears and looked up at Qin Qiuyan, "Old lady, where's the Xuan Yang blood? Give it to Xiping and ask him to take it to the regiment leader. We owe him a life, and it's time to pay it back."

Upon hearing this, Qin Qiuyan immediately stood up without saying a word, opened the box on the kangqin, and pulled out a small box from the box.

Open the box and find a round-bellied porcelain vase that is larger than a goose egg.

The porcelain bottle was sealed tightly with wax, and it looked like it was well preserved.

"Xiping, here is the Xuan Yang blood passed down from our family, take it.

Regardless of whether Mr. Wu was your master's regiment leader back then, even if he wasn't, since we have this thing, if he needs it, we have to give it to him. "

Qin Qiuyan had lived with Liu Changde all her life, and she had never seen Liu Changde look so sad.

She could understand the old man's sadness, so without saying a word, she took out the precious Xuan Yang blood and handed it to Sheng Xiping.

Sheng Xiping didn't answer, "Master's wife, please leave it alone for now, I can't have this thing."

What Sheng Xiping said at the Wu family was just to help inquire, but he did not intend to send him to the Wu family.

On the way back, Sheng Xiping had already thought about it. If the Liu family really agreed to take out the Xuan Yang blood, then Sheng Xiping would ask Liu Yujiang and the two brothers to follow him to the capital.

The things came from the Liu family, and the Wu family should be grateful, as well as the Liu family.

If Sheng Xiping had coaxed and deceived him to get the things, and then turned them back to the Wu family to gain their favor and favor, then he would be very inhumane.

Sheng Xiping was always very loyal to his friends when doing things, not to mention that the Liu family were relatives.

Sheng Xiping couldn't do it by borrowing things from his relatives to fulfill himself.

"What's going on? Are you afraid this is a fake? Really, don't worry, this thing can last for many years and won't fail." Qin Qiuyan thought differently.

"No, no, Master Wife, I'm not saying this is true or false. What I mean is, I can't hold this thing." After hearing this, Sheng Xiping hurriedly explained.

"Master, come with me to the capital and meet Mr. Wu. If it is really your captain back then, you can be regarded as old friends getting together.

It would be better for you to give this thing in person. "Since there is such a connection, it would be better for Liu Changde to come forward in person.

"No, I won't go, I don't have the shame to see the old leader again.

I promised well at the beginning that I would return to the army after visiting relatives and follow the army south. However, there was no news about me when I returned home. How could I have the face to see others? "

When Liu Changde heard this, he quickly waved his hands and shook his head.

"What else is there? Back then, I couldn't help myself.

Being filial in front of the court naturally fails to be loyal to the country. It is difficult to have both loyalty and righteousness, and the master has no choice but to make it.

Master, you are already this age, and Mr. Wu is over seventy years old. If you miss the opportunity, you will really never see him again. "Sheng Xiping patiently persuaded.

Upon hearing this, Qin Qiuyan also persuaded him. At this time, brothers Liu Yujiang and Liu Yuhe, who had gone to work in the mountains, also came back.

When the two of them entered the room and saw the situation, they were stunned for a moment. "Hey, why are Xiping here? Didn't you say you went to the south?" Liu Yujiang also asked the same question.

"Dad, what's wrong with you? Are you crying?" The atmosphere in the room seemed not right. Liu Yujiang looked at it and found that his father's eyes were red, as if he had cried.

His father cried? You can't, right? You've never seen your father cry since you were a kid? What's going on?

"Eldest brother, second brother, you two sit down and I will tell you slowly."

Sheng Xiping asked the Liu brothers to sit down, and then told them everything about what happened.

"I asked Master to follow me to the capital, but he refused and said he was too embarrassed to see others.

Big brother, second brother, you two can help me persuade me. I really can’t take Xuan Yang’s blood and send it to the Wu family on my own.

This thing belongs to your family, and you know how precious it is. I can't do that kind of unconscionable thing.

If Master doesn't go, either of you can go to the capital with me. "

Liu Yujiang and Liu Yuhe finally understood and nodded immediately, "Dad, that's it, let Lao Er and Xiping accompany you.

I think what Xiping said is reasonable. You are already this age, and what happened back then was not your fault.

I just happened to go meet the old leader and catch up on old times. Wouldn’t your knot be resolved?

Mr. Wu is quite old. No one dares to say what will happen in the future. Just meet him if you can. You are not afraid of fighting and bloodshed. What are you afraid of when you meet someone? "

"That's right, that's right, dad, there's nothing scary in the capital, so why don't you dare?" Liu Yuhe also advised.

The family and Sheng Xiping all tried to persuade Liu Changde, and finally Liu Changde seemed to be tempted. "Then, let's go to the capital?"

Hearing Liu Changde's words, everyone laughed, "Let's go. It just so happens that I haven't been to the capital yet. This time, I will go and see it with my dad."

"Okay, I will pack your clothes and luggage for you men tonight, and you can set off tomorrow. While the work in the fields is not busy, you can leave early and come back early."

Qin Qiuyan smiled and put away the xuanyang blood and put it back into the small box.

Since Liu Changde and the others decided to go to the capital to meet Mr. Wu, there was no need to hand that thing over to Sheng Xiping.

"Then it's settled, master, second brother, I'll go find a car right now. If the car can be settled, we'll leave early tomorrow and hurry up and rush to the capital."

Sheng Xiping was really too anxious. He had to go south to do business first.

After saying that, Sheng Xiping was about to leave. Liu Yujiang and Liu Yuhe hurriedly stopped Sheng Xiping, insisting that he stay at home to finish eating before leaving.

"No, eldest brother, second brother, I just came home, my mother doesn't know what's going on yet, I didn't even have time to tell her.

Besides, I still have to go to the forest farm to find a car, so I won’t leave home for food today.

Another day, when things are done, we can have a good gathering later. "Sheng Xiping rejected the Liu family's kindness and said goodbye.

After coming out of Dajichang Village, Sheng Xiping went straight to Zheng Xianyong's house.

Zheng Xianyong was also quite surprised when he saw Sheng Xiping. When he found out that Sheng Xiping wanted a ride, Zheng Xianyong agreed without saying a word.

Then, Sheng Xiping went to the forest farm dispatching room, borrowed a phone to call the province, and told Chen Ruiqing that he had something urgent to do and would delay his trip to Guangdong Province for a while.

I don’t know exactly when I can go.

Chen Ruiqing only asked Sheng Xiping to call him whenever he arrived in Yangcheng, and he would find someone to make arrangements.

Long distance was too expensive, so the two hung up the phone without talking much.

After finishing these things, Sheng Xiping returned to his home, and Zhang Shuzhen happened to have prepared all the meals.

While the family of four was eating, Sheng Xiping told Zhang Shuzhen everything about his trip to the capital.

After listening to Sheng Xiping's words, Zhang Shuzhen let out a sigh of relief, "Co-authoring is such a thing.

The third child is the same. He doesn’t tell his family about the girl he likes. If he had told her earlier, I would have given him a watch.

Boss, you go to the capital this time and bring something to the girl from the Wu family. Just say it was given by me. "

The children at home are getting older, and Zhang Shuzhen has already prepared. She has saved several watches in the past few years, just for her future daughter-in-law.

Now that she knows that Sheng Xikang has a partner, the girl is still a student at Peking University, and her family is from the capital, Zhang Shuzhen is very happy.

Although the Sheng family belongs to a small place, there are no shortage of etiquette and rules.

"Okay, then I'll take it to you." Sheng Xiping nodded and didn't say much.

This is normal. When Sheng Xiping and Zhou Qinglan were dating, Zhang Shuzhen had already prepared a watch as a meeting gift.

After eating, Sheng Xiping played with his two sons for a while, and then took an early rest.

I have been traveling back and forth on the train these past few days. It is really uncomfortable not to eat well and sleep well, so it is better to rest early.

On the morning of March 11, Sheng Xiping, Liu Changde, Liu Yuhe and his son got into the car arranged by the forest farm and headed straight to Songjiang River.

I took a bus from Songjianghe to Tonghua, and then from Tonghua to the capital. After nearly three days of hard work, I finally arrived in the capital.

After arriving in the capital, the group first found a place to settle down. Then Sheng Xiping called the school communication office and called Sheng Xikang several times.

Ask Sheng Xikang to inform the Wu family that Xuan Yang's blood has been obtained and that the owner is staying in the hotel.

When Sheng Xikang heard this, he was overjoyed and hurriedly told Wu Yuhua the good news.

Only then did Wu Yuhua learn that the eldest brother who co-wrote Sheng Xikang did not go to the south, but returned to the northeast to help collect Deng Xuan Yang's blood.

As soon as he heard that Xuan Yang's blood had been found, Wu Yuhua was so excited that he called his family and asked them to arrange for someone to pick up Sheng Xiping and his party at the hotel.

When the Wu family heard the news, they were also extremely excited.

Wu Bingzhong and Wu Bingyi, who were at work, hurried back and personally took people to the hotel to find Sheng Xiping.

"Xiping, thank you so much. I didn't expect you to go back to the Northeast instead of going south because of our old man's affairs.

Oh, you kid, you are so generous, how can we thank you? "Wu Bingzhong grabbed Sheng Xiping's hand and was so excited that he didn't know what to say.

"Uncle, thanking you is a trivial matter. Let me introduce you to someone. If nothing else, this person is an old friend of Mr. Wu."

Sheng Xiping smiled lightly and led everyone to the room where Liu Changde lived.

　Xuan Yang's blood, I heard from my grandma, my great-grandmother has it at home, in bottles, two bottles. My great-grandmother had been crazy for many years. After she died, the family was packing up their things and found two bottles. They didn’t know what they were, so they threw them into the ditch. As a result, the bottle broke and the contents spilled out. It is said that at that time, I saw countless thin blood lines jumping up and down. Those who knew me said that I was blind because they were xuanyang blood.

　　As for whether it is called Xuan Yang or Hanging Yang, there is no unified opinion. I heard people say it before, and it was also called hanging sheep. Later, when I looked up the information, it was written in a book published by our Fusong Writers Association that it was called xuanyang.
