Chapter 188 Letting Go
After nearly three days of journey, Song Mu finally returned to Shiyang County again.

The familiar local accent and the city's topography rushed towards him, and Song Mu felt a little excited in his heart. When he came back to his senses, he realized that he had already had a deep nostalgia for this land.

It has only been half a year since he came to this world, but Song Mu always feels as if he has passed away.

Perhaps the unsettled life has changed the way I look at the world.

The carriage drove into the city, and put the two of them down at the entrance of the alley of Song Mu's house. Many neighbors saw Song Mu's return, and immediately came up to greet them eagerly.

Gradually, people gathered around, and some lively children imitated the tone of adults and ran wildly in the alley, shouting "Mr. Xiucai is back."

Such scenes also warmed Song Mu's heart, and he kept saying hello all the way. He made an appointment with Kong Zong for the next visit, and Song Mu also walked towards it with his things.

Song Mu was heading home, two braids were exposed by the roadside tree, Song Mu smiled and shouted towards that side.

"Yaya, is uncle and aunt back?"

Song Mu yelled like this, and a gray face appeared under the tree. At this moment, the eyes looking at Song Mu flickered, and then rushed forward, his face was full of joy.

"Brother, you are back, mother is at home, and father has to pack up before he comes back."

Saying so, Yaya was pulling Song Mu, her eyes were full of twinkles.

Song Mu smiled, and immediately took out a bag of caramel that had been prepared from his arms and handed it over, but when he reached out to pick it up, he said it in a serious manner.

"You can eat it if you want, but you can't eat too much every day. See, your two small front teeth are gone."

Hearing this, Yaya's face turned gloomy, and then she puffed up her cheeks and nodded in pain. Song Mu laughed, stuffed caramel in her hand, and led her home.

A figure ran out of the gate of the courtyard over there. It was Mrs. Zhu. Seeing Song Mu coming at a leisurely pace, he was also very happy at the moment. walked out the door.

"Mu Ge'er, you're back."

Song Mu raised his head and glanced at Mrs. Zhu, with a happy expression at the moment, nodded and said.

"Auntie, I'm back."

Having said that, Mrs. Zhu has already come up to look at Song Mu carefully, and then talked about the matter of the second uncle getting up and going out in the middle of the night. Seeing Song Mu's vigor and vigor now, he felt a lot more relieved.

Song Mu quickly introduced Tao Fengming who was next to him, and knowing that he was Song Mu's master, Mrs. Zhu also hurriedly stepped forward to salute with a respectful expression.

After several people entered the courtyard, Song Mu realized that there had been some changes in the family.

I haven't been back for several months, and the situation at home is also different from before. The most obvious thing is that in my room, the sunken ground that was originally planed to remove the blue bricks is now covered with red clay, and it looks extremely clean. .

And there was also a wooden bed and a desk inside, and I found a shelf from somewhere, and put some books on it.

There was a woody fragrance everywhere in the house, Song Mu was a little surprised seeing this scene, but Zhu Shi was also a little embarrassed.

"After you went to the government school, your uncle made a fuss about decorating this place. These things are all newly made, that is, not very valuable items."

"Aunt, you and Uncle have a crush on each other."

Song Mu was very touched, Zhu Shi waved his hand awkwardly, but Tao Fengming also arranged for Tao Fengming's residence at the moment, Tao Fengming still said softly that he would live with Song Mu, Song Mu also nodded, and Zhu Shi quickly agreed Next, let Yaya go out to find the second uncle.

Song Mu also said to go with him, but just after leaving the alley, he saw that the second uncle got the news from somewhere, and he had come back at this moment, with an extremely happy expression.

"Brother Mu, no, it's time to call Jingzhao. It's good when you come back. Let your aunt cook a few more dishes tonight, and we two have a good drink!"

Song Mu was also very happy to see Song Liangda again, with a warm feeling in his heart, he stepped forward to help carry the things, and then walked to the courtyard together, the small courtyard suddenly became more lively.

In the evening, the family was sitting in the main hall for dinner, Song Liangda pushed Tao Fengming to the main seat, and at this moment he was pouring wine with red faces.

"Mr. Tao, you are welcome to come to me. Speaking of which, I have read books for a few years. What is that word called? Plump... Plump is radiant."

At this moment, Tao Fengming followed Song Liangda with a calm expression to exchange cups. Before Song Mu told his second uncle about Tao Fengming's current identity, and then secretly said that the other party was a Jinshi, the second uncle's eyes sparkled.

Song Mu was sitting next to him, and some warm wine was poured into the porcelain cup in front of him. It was snowing outside, the house was like a spring breeze, and the family was eating steaming food. The scenery made Song Mu feel emotional.

Song Mu even thought of when he was a child in the previous life, when he gathered around the old house with his family to congratulate the New Year, everyone's faces were filled with smiles.

The meal was very satisfying. After the meal, Song Mu poured tea for Tao Fengming. The second uncle also looked at Song Mu in surprise and said.

"Jingzhao, you have thought about it, next year you will take the exam for... Juren?"

This was what Song Mu mentioned to the second uncle during the dinner. The second uncle was silent for a long time, as if he had just finished thinking about it at this moment.

When Song Mu saw the worried but eager look on his second uncle's face, he immediately understood it in his heart.

It was a surprise enough for Song Liangda to take part in the provincial examination, but maybe Song Liangda thought of his elder brother Song Liangtong.

After all, Song Liangtong made a mistake on the way to the provincial capital for the exam, which made the family precarious and crumbling.

Therefore, the second uncle has a natural shadow about going to the provinces, cities and villages.

He was afraid that something would happen to Song Mu again, but he was telling him in his heart that only after taking this step would the Song family have a more brilliant future.

Tao Fengming drank his tea in silence, while Song Mu sighed silently before speaking.

"Second Uncle, I'm just going to give it a try. If it works, let's..."

Song Mu's meaning was obvious, but the second uncle's expression was stunned, but he nodded immediately.

"Jing Zhao, I naturally support your decision, but when are you going?"

Song Mu glanced at Tao Fengming next to him, and thought that the provincial examination would be in July and August next year, so he said it right away.

"If all goes well, we will go there in July and come back after the exam."

Song Liangda nodded immediately when he heard this sentence, and then said with a wandering expression.

"If you get there, don't forget to take a look..."

"Our ancestral hall."

Song Mu nodded, but Song Liangda's expression seemed a little lonely, and he seemed to have made a decision when he got up now.

"Jing Zhao, your second uncle and I have no skills, the only one the Song family can count on in this life is you."

"Whatever happens in the future, you can just tell me, everything can be decided by you."

Song Mu looked at his second uncle, only to feel that the other party seemed to have experienced a lot of vicissitudes.

Although others said that the second uncle was a bit dull, Song Mu knew that the second uncle's heart was actually bright.Perhaps he did this as a way of protecting his family.

At this moment, the two were silent, and Song Mu just nodded heavily.

……

 I forgot to set the timer, I said why not (ー_ー)!!
