Across the Market

Chapter 154

Because today is New Year's Eve, and it is necessary to watch the year when the child arrives, Zhu Fu took the younger siblings after setting off the fireworks, and Zhu Fu washed the younger siblings, and then led them to play in the small house, leaving the main room to the elders Gossip is commonplace.

Although Mrs. Guo is getting old, because everything is going well now, the pain on her body has long since disappeared.And because when I was young, I often went to the fields to farm, and my body was considered strong. Now I enjoy the blessings of children and grandchildren. Seeing that the children and grandchildren of the family are getting better and better, the old man is walking like flying now, and can eat two or three bowls at a meal.

Wei Sanniang was afraid that her mother-in-law would be tired from watching the night, so she persuaded her, "Mother, it's fine for the daughter-in-law and younger siblings to stay with the children. You should go and rest first, so you don't burn yourself out."

Mrs. Guo waved her hand nonchalantly and said, "I know my body well. I am not tired. Now that your family business is booming, you have saved some silver taels, and you have paid me to see a doctor. How can I have anything left on me?" What kind of illness is it, it has been cured long ago."

Yu replied with a smile: "Sister-in-law, don't worry about your mother, she is in very good health now." She has always had a good relationship with Wei Sanniang's sister-in-law. When the family was still in the countryside, they never complained about the eldest brother. The family, now following the city to enjoy the blessings, naturally is even more grateful to the elders.

I no longer need to live in that thatched hut that leaks from wind and rain, I no longer need to go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables to eat, and I no longer need to plant crops that don’t yield much food... The most important thing is that Gui Geer is now studying Things have settled down, and she still lives in a spacious and bright tile-roofed house, Yu Shi is really laughing like a dream.

After Zhu Xi helped Zhu Fu wash the feet of his younger brothers and sisters, he boiled a large pot of boiling water, brewed a pot of tea and brought it to the main room to serve tea to several elders.

Mrs. Yu didn't have a daughter herself, so she liked a few nieces very much. When she saw Zhu Xi bringing tea, she quickly reached out to take it.

"Sister Xi has been busy all day, let's go and have a rest, let's pour tea by ourselves." Yu said with a smile, while pouring tea for her mother-in-law, uncle, sister-in-law and her husband, and finally pouring tea for herself One cup, she picked up the delicate white porcelain cup, put the steaming tea on the tip of her nose, took a sip and said, "It's really fragrant, this tea is really fragrant."

Zhu Gui smiled and said, "Mother, this is Biluochun, it's worth a tael of money."

Yu Shi smacked her lips and took a sip, only feeling that her mouth was fragrant, but she also felt distressed, although this thing is good, why is it so expensive.

When Mrs. Guo was young, she spent a good time with her husband. Father Zhu used to run with a caravan during the slack season. He would bring money home during the Chinese New Year, and he would also bring some luxuries for his wife and children. .The Zhu family used to be regarded as a well-off family in the village, but later the daughter was lost, and the Zhu family spent a lot of money to ask someone to help find it, and the house was already quite empty. The father decided to sell some of the family properties and houses.

He always thought that he was pretty tough and could always make more money in the future.

It's a pity that the sky didn't go as planned, and not many days later, Mr. Zhu went out with the caravan to run the goods, and encountered an accident on the way.Later, the people who went out with him brought his body back in a donkey cart, saying that he had contracted a cold along the way and died of illness.

In fact, Mrs. Guo knew very well in his heart that it was not because he contracted the cold, but because he missed his daughter and died of depression all day long.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Guo wiped away the turbid old tears, and seeing that her son and grandson are still there, she said, "It's been more than 20 years, and I don't know how Taohua is doing now... She must have been kidnapped at the beginning. Abducted away, I don't know which family was sold to be a servant girl, but now she is married and has children."

The abduction of his younger sister was a big concern for Zhu Da. He was the one who brought his younger siblings into the city to watch the lanterns.In the end, with only one turn around, my sister disappeared. She was only four years old at the time!
Those kidnappers abducted children and sold them to dental shops. He also went to the surrounding dental shops to search all over, but there was no clue at all.The younger sister just disappeared out of thin air, without leaving any clues behind.Over the years, Zhu Da has never had a good day. Even if he marries a wife and has children, the husband and wife are harmonious, the father and son are of the same heart, and although the family is not rich, it is still warm...

But every time he thought of his sister, he couldn't sleep all night, and always felt that his sister was still waiting for him in a corner, waiting for him to save her.

After being silent for a while, Zhu Da said, "Mother, let's keep looking until we find it."

Zhu Er said in a muffled voice: "It's so easy. I couldn't find it before. Now it's been 20 years. I can't find it if I look for it."

Zhu Da insisted: "I will go out to look for it, starting from the neighboring counties, and asking one by one, and I can always find it."

Wei Sanniang understood the pain in her husband's heart, stretched out her hand to hold his hand tightly, and said to Guo Shi who was sitting in the upper seat: "Mother, don't worry, there will always be a solution. Now that the children are grown up, there will always be a solution." Opportunities are for my little sister." She lowered her eyes and thought for a while, and then said, "After the new year, not only will Brother Gui have to take the county's examination, but Brother Lu will also take the county's martial arts examination first."

Wei Sanniang didn't know much about the fact that the eldest son was going to take the martial arts test, and she was not very willing.With her son raised so big, she was reluctant to let him leave her, and also worried that she would go to the border to fend off enemies in the future after passing the martial arts exam. Swords have no eyes, so how could she not worry about her son.

Later, it was Sister Fu who helped to persuade herself, and after a long time of reasoning, she finally figured it out.

It was the first time for Mrs. Guo to hear that her eldest grandson was going to take the martial arts exam, and she was stunned and asked, "What's going on?"

Zhu Lu was sitting below, hearing what his grandmother said, "Grandson doesn't want to be so mediocre for the rest of his life, grandson wants to gain fame." He pursed his thin lips tightly, and Zhao Tiehua's beautiful face appeared in front of him, making up his mind more and more, " Grandson failed in school, Yulou said he could take the martial arts exam, so grandson wanted to give it a try."

"Practicing martial arts is a good thing, it can strengthen your body, but the battlefield has no eyes." Guo Shi said, "You are the grandson of my Zhu family, and when you are old, you should start a family and continue to have children."
