Huang Ting

After just two days of waiting in Sijiucheng, Hu Bayi and Hu Xiuwu's parents came.

The younger son has not been seen for a long time. The old couple has missed him for a long time. This time they heard that he will stay at home and will not go back to the mountains.

The two of them were so happy that they hurried over from their hometown.

"Dad! Mom! Here."

Hu Bayi waved his arms and greeted his parents at the exit of the train station, while Hu Xiuwu stood next to him.

When Hu Yunxuan and his wife walked out of the station, Hu Bayi quickly stepped forward to take the luggage from their hands, and he was extremely attentive.

Just after selling the jade, Hu Bayi is now rich and doesn't take any buses anymore.

As soon as I got out of the station, I found a taxi, welcomed my parents into the car, and took the passenger seat.

Mother Hu sat in the middle of the back seat, with her youngest son on the left and her husband on the right.

As soon as they got to the car, Mother Hu held Hu Xiuwu's hand and wouldn't let go.

Her youngest son had suffered a lot since he was a child, so she had always been heartbroken and thinking about him.

Hu Bayi, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, looked jealous.

"Mom, there's nothing wrong with Xiuwu. I can let him freeze and starve? Why don't you care about your eldest son?"

Mother Hu rolled her eyes at him:

"What do you care about? You tell me that you ignored the work assigned to you by the army and asked you to go on a blind date. Then you came to Sijiu City and fooled around with that boy Wang Kaixuan."

"You two bachelors, why don't you find a wife quickly..."

Hu's mother became more and more angry as she talked. Hu Yunxuan did not dare to speak at the side, and Hu Xiuwu watched his elder brother's amusement from the side.

Come on, blame me, why did I bring this up?

Hu Bayi mentally slapped himself.

The driver who was driving heard what Hu's mother said, and he said calmly: "Oh, my aunt is right. Brother, when a man reaches his age, he needs to find a wife. Let me tell you..."

Good guy, master, you have forgotten who gave you money, right?

I finally made it home,

Wang Kaixuan had already prepared everything, including copper hot pot, vegetables, roast chicken from the grocery store, pig's trotters, and two bottles of Red Star, and he made a table full of dishes.

"Oh, Uncle Hu, Aunt Hu is here, I miss you all the time!"

As soon as he saw Hu Yunxuan and his wife, Wang Kaixuan spoke first,

He and Hu Bayi grew up together. His father was Hu Yunxuan's boss. After his father died, he often went to Hu Bayi's family to have a meal. Hu's mother treated him and Hu Bayi equally.

Aunt Hu was very happy to see Wang Kaixuan: "Little Fatty, you are still so good at talking."

"Kaixuan, what are you doing?"

Hu Yunxuan glanced at the backpacks placed on the ground by Wang Kaixuan and Hu Bayi.

Hu Bayi explained: "Oh, Fatty and I took a job to work for the country and escort a national archaeological team to Taklimakan for archeology."

Hearing that it was a national matter, Hu Yunxuan didn't say anything. He just asked Hu Bayi to be careful and take good care of the old professor.

The family, including Wang Kaixuan, had a lively reunion dinner. Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan drank with their father.

Although Hu Yunxuan is older, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan, together, have never drank from his father.

This meal lasted until evening, when all the charcoal in the copper pot burned out.

Hu Xiuwu helped his mother pack away the leftovers.

Hu's mother said to Hu Xiuwu: "Xiuwu, you go and rest, I will come."

"It's okay, I'll help you."

Mother Hu looked at Hu Xiuwu's nimble movements, and then thought about Xiuwu's cold and ruthless appearance as a child, just like the clay sculpture in the temple, and she felt relieved and happy.

Xiuwu's situation has always been a worry between her and the old man.

Now he was cured, Xiuwu's illness was cured, and he returned to the secular world and returned to their side.

Originally, they thought Xiuwu would stay in the Taoist temple for the rest of his life.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Hu Xiuwu was holding the plate and turned around to see his mother standing motionless behind him, holding a rag in her hand and tears in her eyes.

"It's okay, it's just that Mom was thinking that I really want to go to Maoshan that day to thank your master."

·······

On the second day,

Hu Kaixuan and Fatty Wang got up early. They still had some equipment that they had not found, mainly some items that were difficult to buy on the market.

So I can only ask Da Jinya to find someone.

Today, Da Jinya came with news that they had found everything and asked them to come over, so the two of them hurried to Da Jinya's store.

Mother Hu came today and was busy cleaning the rooms for Wang Kaixuan and Hu Bayi.

Men and women have very different standards for "cleanliness".

Most boys think that as long as there are people in the room and it's out of the way, a little dust is fine.

But wives and mothers don’t think that if they put their hands on the bookshelf on the window sill and see dust on their hands, that means they are unclean.

Watching Hu's mother tidying up the room at home, Hu Yunxuan happened to go out to visit his comrades, and by the way, he took Hu Xiuwu with him.

"Dad, where are we going?"

"I went to see a comrade of mine. I haven't seen him for a long time since he was demobilized. He used to be a soldier under me. I heard that he went to sea to do business. He seems to be doing pretty well."

Hu Yunxuan didn't know much about Sijiu City, so he decided to take a taxi, gave the taxi driver the address, and asked the taxi driver who was familiar with Sijiu City to take the father and son there.

After hearing the address announced by Hu Yun, the taxi driver asked the two of them to get in the car, stepped on the accelerator and left.

"Don't worry, brother, I will definitely take you to a place."

The taxi took them through Sijiu City and arrived at the home of Hu Yunxuan's comrade-in-arms.

"Dad, your comrade's business seems to be more than pretty good!"

Hu Xiuwu looked at the manor in front of him and said to his father.

"Last time I saw him, his house didn't seem that big!"

Hu Yunxuan touched his chin,

He felt a little sad that the old man's business was getting bigger and bigger, but it was not as bad as when Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden.

Before Hu Yunxuan retired, he was a full-fledged military commander. He retired with a star on his shoulders, and his disciples and old officials were all over the country.

Hu Yunxuan may not be as rich as him, but in terms of connections, he is definitely no worse than his old comrade.

"Old Chief, I really didn't expect you to come to Sijiu City to see me, Old Wang."

Hu Yunxuan led Hu Xiuwu and was welcomed into the house by the servants.

As soon as he entered the house, Hu Xiuwu saw a man in his forties with a similar build to Wang Kaixuan and his family gathered around him.

Then the man lowered his head and looked at Hu Xiuwu:

"The leader even brought his grandson here. Don't tell me, your grandson is really handsome!"

"What grandson? This is my son."

The man was stunned for a moment, and then showed a man's smile:

"Ox, nothing else. The old leader is an ox. He will get stronger as he gets older!"

"Humph, why are you allowed to have a son? Didn't you also give birth to a little one? The last time I came here, you only had two little boys at home."

"Haha,"*2

The two laughed.

After laughing, Hu Yunxuan lowered his head and said to Hu Xiuwu: "Xiuwu, this is your Wang Weiguo. Your uncle Wang is your father's old friend."

"Also, this is your aunt, this is your eldest brother Wang Yi, your second brother Wang You, and this brother who is about the same age as you..."

Wang Weiguo took over: "Haha, this is the third child in my family."

"King Ye!"
