The daily life of a farm girl raising a family

Chapter 66 The Scholar Returns Home

Zhao Yunxi jumped down from the tree and looked at the bullock cart speeding towards the village entrance.

He looked at the people on the bullock cart with bright eyes and waved his right hand at several people.

"Second uncle (father), eldest brother and second brother."

Looking at his young daughter and niece running towards him, Zhao Youcai quickly stopped the cattle cart.

"Big brother and second brother, congratulations on being admitted as a scholar."

Zhao Youcai looked helpless when he saw the two little girls ignoring him.

Seeing the two sisters constantly saying congratulations to themselves, the two people who had already calmed down began to get excited again.

"Aweng, are they at home or in the fields?"

"At home, grandpa and the others are here too. Everyone is preparing to celebrate you tomorrow, and they are all helping with things now.

Let’s go home first! Aweng cried with joy when he found out that you were admitted as a scholar.

I've been waiting for you to come back at home. "

When Zhao Youcai heard his niece's words, he suddenly no longer felt ashamed when he recalled how he cried secretly when he knew his two children were admitted to the scholar examination.

Zhao Yunzheng and Zhao Yunsong were stared at closely by their two sisters, with a blush on their cheeks.

He said a little embarrassedly: "We have been away from home for so long. Is everything okay at home?"

"It's okay. The whole village has a bumper harvest this year, and everyone helped us harvest our rice this year.

The fruit trees at home are growing well, and I also planted a patch of grapes in the backyard.

Next year we will be able to eat a lot of grapes and make wine by then.

besides"

Zhao Yunxi, who was sitting on the bullock cart, was talking in detail about what happened at home in the past few months.

Let Zhao Youcai and the others feel at ease.

The bullock cart has just arrived at the square, where villagers are doing things and playing games.

Looking at the Zhao Yunzheng brothers on the bullock cart, they surrounded them in an instant.

The oxcart was surrounded by water.

Looking at the villagers who kept saying congratulations to him, Zhao Yunzheng and the two could only stand on the bullock cart and return the greetings to everyone.

“Dear uncles and aunts, we have received all your blessings.

It's just that my nephews and others just came back today and wanted to go home first to pay their respects to the elders in the family.

I also ask for your understanding and I will express my gratitude to everyone one by one tomorrow. "

The villagers who were helping out saw the fatigue on the faces of Zhao Youcai, uncle and nephew, and began to step aside.

It’s just that the speed and distance are not enough for the bullock cart to travel normally.

Listening to everyone's congratulations and congratulations, Zhao Youcai's face lit up.

He kept thanking everyone.

"Thank you all, thank you all. We have been busy traveling these past few days and it is very dusty.

When we go home and wash up, we will have a good time drinking with all our uncles and brothers tomorrow. "

Hearing this, everyone laughed happily and said, "It's settled, we won't go home until we get drunk!"

"Okay, I won't come back until I'm drunk."

This area was surrounded by water, and the children with quick brains had already gone to Zhao's courtyard to report the news.

Seeing that the bullock cart couldn't move any further, Zhao Yunxi had no choice but to let his eldest and second brothers get off the cart and walk.

Otherwise, the bullock cart would be surrounded and they would have to remain trapped here.

Seeing this, Zhao Yunzheng could only get out of the car and walk, followed by dozens of people.

The scene is called a magnificent one.

The brothers and sisters had just reached the halfway point when they met Zhao Yunqin who came running after getting the news.

When the three brothers met, they each punched each other hard.

The excited look in his eyes was more real than the one before when the Yamen came to report the news.

Following closely behind was Lao Zhaotou and his group, looking at the three brothers hugging each other.

"Big brother and second brother, congratulations on getting what you wanted." Looking at his excited brother, Zhao Yunzheng couldn't help but feel excited.

"We are waiting for your good news next year. Me"

"Yunzheng."

A familiar, cordial and excited voice came. Zhao Yunzheng, who was speaking, paused and immediately turned to look in the direction of the voice.

The two brothers ran towards the old man with a kind and kind face, lifted up their robes and knelt down straight.

"Aweng, my unfilial grandson returned home today. He finally lived up to the training of Aweng and the elders in the family and became a scholar.

Fulfilled great-grandfather's last wish and Aweng's wish. "

Old Zhaotou looked at his two grandsons who had lost a lot of weight, feeling happy and distressed at the same time.

With tears streaming down her face, she quickly pulled the two children up.

"Grandpa, uncle, great grandpa and cousin"

The two greeted the elders one by one.

A group of people watched the two children shed tears without saying a word, and their excitement and joy also infected the villagers behind them.

Many people followed and secretly wiped away tears.

After the villagers gathered the Zhao Yunzheng brothers back to their houses, the villagers did not disperse for a long time.

It is a great thing for a village to produce one scholar, let alone two from the Zhao family at once.

And based on the intelligence of these children of the Zhao family, who knows what heights they will reach in the end.

Many people looked at the two brothers who came back curiously.

These two children are really good-looking, and they are still scholars now. They are top-notch good men.

When the Zhao Yunzheng brothers walked into the main room, they saw their grandma and mother looking at them with tears in their eyes.

The two of them knelt down and kowtowed to them three times. Mrs. Zhou looked at her grandson's appearance.

He immediately stepped forward and helped the two children up. There were tears in the corners of her eyes, but the corners of her mouth were raised.

"How can a man kneel down easily when he has gold under his knees? Besides, you still have fame and honor, so you can't kneel down casually."

Zhao Yunsong said with a smile: "Grandma, even if we are admitted to the imperial examination or even become a high official, we still have to salute you."

Mrs. Zhou smiled so hard that she clapped her hands: "You! You are still so sweet, and you can make me, an old woman, happy."

"Grandma, I'm very serious and I'm not trying to make you happy."

Everyone in the room was amused by Zhao Yunsong's words.

Mrs. Zhou also looked at the two brothers with a smile on her face lovingly.

After a while, Old Zhaotou solemnly said: "Go and offer incense to your great-grandfather.

Tell him personally about this good boy and make his old man happy too. "

After the two heard this, they walked to the small ancestral hall at home.

Old Zhaotou lit the incense and handed it to the two children. He also said to his father and mother's memorial tablets: "Mom and Dad, the unfilial son can finally happily say goodbye to his father and mother today.

At home, Yunzheng and Yunsong were admitted to the scholar examination this year, finally fulfilling your father's wish.

Your great-grandson has accomplished what your son failed to do back then.

I hope you will take good care of your two children and your family. Everything is fine at home now, you two can rest assured. "

After telling what happened in the past few years one by one, several people who entered the small ancestral hall had tears in their eyes.

Over the past few decades, my family has heard a lot of rumors, but fortunately they are all over now.

Zhao Guangshun wiped the tears from his eyes and walked out first.

After the Zhao Yunzheng brothers burned the paper money and offered incense, they returned to the main room.

The entire Zhao family became very lively because of the return of the two brothers.

Zhao Yunxi smiled happily as he looked at his brother who was sitting upright in the main room, patiently answering questions from the elders.

His efforts finally paid off, and the Zhao family will become better in the future under the creation of their brothers and sisters.
