Chapter 136: Social Animals Returning to Modern Civilization
Xie Yuchuan was gone for most of the day and didn't come back until dark. Every member of the family was worried and grumbling in their hearts.
Seeing Xie Yuchuan return safely, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Grandma, mother, Yuchuan is fine. I'm sorry for making the family worried." Xie Yuchuan walked up to Mrs. Xie and apologized.
Seeing her grandson return safely, Old Lady Xie grabbed his hand and patted it gently, saying in a reassuring tone, "I'm glad you're back safely. Did Lord Wang give you any trouble?"
"No."
"That'll do."
Old Madam Xie secretly observed the look in her grandson Xie Yuchuan's eyes, and after confirming that he was not troubled, her serious expression relaxed and she smiled slightly, "Go and have a rest, you've had a hard day."
"Rest more, Grandma."
Madam Xie nodded.
Xie Yuchuan turned around and talked to his mother Zhou and other elders for a while before going to rest near the men of the Xie family.
As soon as he sat down, several people surrounded him.
He was surrounded by his cousin Xie Zhen, cousins Xie Wuying, Xie Wenjie, Hanlin Zhang Dayi, old housekeeper Xie Lin, and his sons Xie Changan and Zhou Chuan.
Xie Yuchuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "What are you doing?"
Xie Zhen stared at his face and looked around, then asked with concern, "You always report good news to Grandmother, but never bad news. Now tell me the truth, are you really okay? Are you injured anywhere else?"
"Yes! Third brother, what does Lord Wang ask you to do for help? Is it dangerous?" Xie Wuying looked worried.
Xie Wenjie took a bag of beef jerky and a water bag from the old housekeeper and handed it to Xie Yuchuan: "Third brother, have something to eat."
"Huai Zhang, thank you." Xie Yuchuan took the food from his brother, opened the cow paper bag, and stuffed a piece of dried meat into his mouth. He didn't feel anything before, but when he smelled the fragrance, he remembered that he hadn't eaten anything for a long time.
Zhang Hanlin next to him handed him a piece of candy. Xie Yuchuan glanced at it, smiled and gently pushed it back.
"The candies are for your strength, sir, keep them for yourself."
Zhang Dayi didn't bother to be polite with him. Seeing that he didn't want to eat it, he took it back. He was also worried that it would be dangerous for Wang Chong to ask him to do something.
Xie Yuchuan sat on the ground, looking around at the worried eyes around him, and explained: "I'm really fine, don't worry, Wang Chong asked me to help, he didn't mean to harm me."
"Commander Wang brought the general back?" Zhang Dayi remembered seeing Xie Yuchuan and Xiong Jiushan and other officials coming back in ox carts.
"No, it was given to me by the villagers of Gaojia Village."
Xie Yuchuan didn't explain much after he finished speaking, and Zhang Dayi and others didn't ask any more questions.
Xie Yuchuan ate two pieces of beef jerky and looked around. He found that the fragrance around him had faded since he returned to the exile camp, and now it seemed that he could no longer smell it.
The household god has left, he thought.
Tu Huan turned on the "automatic navigation" mode all the way to escort Xie Yuchuan, Xiong Jiushan and others back to the vicinity of Qingzhou Post Station. She stayed with the Xie family for a while. Seeing that nothing serious happened after Xie Yuchuan returned to the team, she went straight home to rest.
Returning to modern civilization, Tu Huan felt completely relaxed!
Letting go of her nervousness, she threw herself hard onto the spacious and soft sofa in the living room, wishing she could bury her head in it.
"Ah—it's still most comfortable to stay at home!"
On the bright and clean floor, there were still some odds and ends that she hadn't packed up, and the retro golden-brown chandelier illuminated the entire first floor.
The room was too bright and I couldn't see the dark scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Only a few stars flickered in the haze on the window. She turned around, picked up the remote control, drew the curtains on the first floor, and turned on the 75-inch TV. The next second, the sound of variety show laughter filled the entire house.
Tu Huan was so tired that she didn't want to move. She crawled for a while, then turned over and lay on her side. She pulled a pillow under her arm and lazily curled up on the sofa to watch TV.
After a busy day outside, she felt like she had been away for a week.
Having been among a group of ancient people in Daliang, she almost forgot the life that should belong to her.
The phone suddenly lit up.
She opened WeChat and saw a greeting from Xie Yuchuan.
"Xie Yuchuan: Has the family god left? The family god has worked hard today."
Tu Huan casually said, "Well, I'll go back and rest for a while. Xie Yuchuan, go to bed early tonight, conserve your energy, and wait for me to come find you."
Whoosh——
The voice message was sent successfully.
Tu Huan also flipped through the other information:
"Hanhuan, if you have booked a plane ticket, please tell me the flight number and I will send someone to pick you up!" - From my bride-to-be, Jiang Li.
Tu Huan replied: "OK!"
"Teacher Tu, regarding the comic "Nuwa Doesn't Want to Mending the Pot", we will participate in the Jiangnan Promotion Conference at the beginning of next month. At that time, the promotional space may need a new poster. After discussing it at the meeting, we felt that if there is a content with a greater contrast in time and space, it will be more attractive. I wonder if Teacher Tu has time to create another one? Remuneration is not a problem. If it is not too much trouble, thank you for your hard work, Teacher Tu! If you have other arrangements, you are welcome to communicate with us at any time." - From a cooperative company.
Tu Huan replied: "Sure, I'll send you the first draft next weekend for you to study."
"Sister Huan, are you busy with work lately? Do you want to go to Thailand? The weather is good during the peak season, so do you want to go? Let's go on a trip on a whim?" - From my cousin Tu Xingxing, a 2D star-chasing girl.
Tu Huan replied: "No!"
Just as I was about to read the next post, my cousin Tu Xingxing’s avatar suddenly popped up!
Tu Xingxing: "Sister! Please come with me! My son is having a meet-and-greet, and I want to go! My mom is worried, so if you can come with me, I'll reimburse the entire trip, okay? Please!"
Tu Huan's voice: "You star-chasing girls are all rich!"
Tu Xingxing: "Hahahahahahahahaha! Dear sister, please go with me!"
Tu Huan smiled and said, "I'll think about it."
A bunch of blowing kiss emojis came over!
Tu Xingxing: "I love you! I'll take that as your consent!"
Tu Huan asked, "You're thirty this year and still don't want to go back to your grandparents' house?"
Tu Xingxing: "No! I don't want to go back and see my dad's old face. Will you go back this year?"
Tu Huan thought of the Xie family, thought for a moment, and said, "I'll go back and visit this year."
Tu Xingxing: "If you go back, then I will go back! I can't let you fight alone among those wolves and tigers! Mua~"
Tu Huan smiled and finished chatting with her cousin.
She saw two "friend requests" on WeChat, opened them and took a look, and it turned out to be Xie Huailou and Qin Lang, the boss of Bafanglaicai.
He put down his phone, ignored the request, and went to the kitchen to cook noodles.
I don't want to have any contact with them for the time being.
Tu Huan stood in front of the boiling water pot and stirred noodles, while her mind was checking the system backpack to see what good things were in it.
This time, she seemed to have received an extra super-level lv.3 gift package. I wonder what good things are inside.
She beat the eggs, cut the sausages and put them in, and added some chopped green onions. After a while, she turned off the fire and took the bowl. Tu Huan ate the steaming hot noodles and felt like her internal organs had come alive.
"If I have time tomorrow, I'll stew a pot of braised pork." Tu Huan thought while eating.
On TV, the reality show has ended and a late-night historical documentary has just begun.
Tu Huan looked up inadvertently and couldn't take her eyes off.
