While the little kids in the school were eating the meat buns with great surprise.

Master Cui, who gave them meat buns as a reward, said goodbye to his teacher Mr. Dong Lai.

Then he took a horse carriage and rushed to Zhuangyuan Lane, in the southeast corner of Kaifeng City.

On the way, the carriage passed by Daxiangguo Temple.

Although it was almost evening, many vendors selling Buddhist scriptures, incense and candles could still be seen outside the temple.

Not far from Daxiangguo Temple and Zhuangyuan Lane are Kaifeng Prefecture School and Imperial Examination Hall.

Behind Zhuangyuan Lane is a tributary of the Bian River. As you get closer, you can faintly hear the sound of canal boats unloading cargo.

On a summer evening in July, the sky is filled with rosy clouds.

Outside a large mansion with three entrances in Zhuangyuan Lane.

Old Mrs. Cui was holding her little granddaughter Cui Ying in her arms. Both of them had the same expression, looking eagerly towards the entrance of the alley.

Why hasn’t it arrived yet?

Could there have been an accident on the road?

Just as Old Cui was daydreaming, the sound of horse hooves came from far away, and then a carriage appeared in the alley.

Old Mrs. Cui and Cui Ying's eyes both lit up.

After Cui Xian left home, little Cui Ying was sulking for several days because her brother left without saying goodbye.

But now so much time has passed that she has long forgotten it.

When the carriage stopped outside the house, Cui Xian was seen getting off the carriage with two strings of candied haws.

Cui Ying quickly broke free from her grandmother's arms and ran over excitedly, "Brother!"

Cui Xian bent down and held him in his arms, then handed him the candied haws with a smile: "During the time when my brother was away from home, have you been obedient?"

Cui Ying couldn't wait to take a bite of the candied haws, puffed her lips and said indistinctly: "Listen, be obedient!"

After hearing this, Cui Xian pinched A-mei's smiling face and greeted Old Cui with a smile: "Grandma."

Old Cui sighed, stepped forward and took her grandson's hand: "Finally you're here. These past few days your mother has been saying that without Xian'er here, the whole family feels empty in Kaifeng."

"Now that you're here, our family is reunited, and everything is complete!"

"Come on, let's go home. Your parents are all thinking about you."

As Old Cui said this, she took Xian'er's hand and rushed into the house.

Cui Xian felt relieved and happy after hearing this.

My grandmother was worthy of being the head of the family, and she managed everything in an orderly manner. The whole family moved from Nanyang to Kaifeng, and settled everything so quickly.

Therefore, from the moment he got off the carriage, he felt calm.

A wanderer who is away from home will always feel a little lonely.

When I got home, my heart softened.

forecourt.

Several servants were arranging the flower stands. When they saw Cui Xian coming in, they hurried over to greet him happily, "Young Master is back!"

This shout instantly brought the entire house to life.

Cui Zhongyuan, Chen, Cui Boshan, Lin, Cui Yu, Cui Xuan and the whole family came over to ask about their well-being.

Chen took a look at her son, who looked exhausted, and said with a smile, "You've lost weight, but you look more energetic."

Cui Zhongyuan hugged Cui Ying and said, "The hot water has been prepared for you. Go and wash up. We are waiting for you to have the reunion dinner."

"good."

Cui Xian responded, walked over, and bumped fists with his brother Cui Yu in tacit understanding.

Then he smiled and looked at Lin: "I have been away from home for the past few months. I don't know why, but I always miss the bacon fried by my aunt."

Lin bent over and laughed: "That's easy. If Brother Xian wants to eat, I'll make it for you right away."

Old Cui instructed, "Remember to cook another bowl of noodles for Xian. He has been away for so long, and the first meal when he gets home should be a bowl of hot noodles."

Wait for Cui Xian to finish washing and changing his clothes.

It's getting dark.

Lanterns were lit in the house, making the yard exceptionally bright.

The night sky is dotted with stars.

According to Mrs. Cui's wishes, the family moved the dining table to the yard and filled it with all kinds of food, fruits and vegetables.

In the very middle is a large pot of greasy fried bacon.

Cui Xian walked over and sat down, then asked with a smile, "Is this pot of bacon edible? Are you sure you don't just want me to smell it and then take it back?"

The whole family at the dinner table burst into laughter.

Old Cui blushed, and then she also laughed: "Eat, eat, eat, all! Oh, now that I think about it, I find it funny."

"It's just a piece of bacon. It's really not worth it. It's not worth it!"

Cui Boshan scratched his head and said shyly, "Speaking of this, my second brother and I have never dared to tell you, mother."

"That year, after eating the dish of fried bacon with water celery, my second brother and I went to take the exam. I started having diarrhea in the second half of the night. I kept running to the toilet even when I was in the exam room."

"We were so poor at the time, and we had nothing to eat. It was unbearable to suddenly have a good meal."

Cui Zhongyuan nodded repeatedly, expressing his deep agreement.

It turned out that Mrs. Cui, Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Chen and others all looked a little uncomfortable.

Cui Boshan was stunned when he saw this, but then he reacted and asked tentatively, "Did you all have stomach upset after eating bacon that time?"

Old Cui couldn't hold it in and was the first to burst out laughing.

Lin and Chen were also laughing so hard that they fell over.

It's absolutely amazing.

What is going on?

Only little Cui Ying looked confused, not knowing what the family was laughing at.

There is a cool breeze on summer nights.

Cui Xian sat at the dining table with a smile on his face, eating noodles with bacon, feeling extremely relaxed and comfortable.

At home, he didn't have to think about playing tricks on the emperor, didn't have to think about debating on the high platform, didn't have to think about the hidden dangers in the southeast, and didn't have to think about how much malice and bullying he would attract from the literary community in the future.
