Chapter 635: Can the Young Master Also See the Household God?
Ever since the Xie family encountered trouble, Old Lady Xie had always believed that if the Xie family wanted to survive, they had to keep a low profile and make it all the way to the north safely.
There are only a few people left in the Xie family, most of them are women, and there are very few men.
She didn't even expect the Xie family to revive, but she hoped that the family could live in peace and safety along the way, which was the blessing of their ancestors.
Who could have expected that in their generation, the family god that the Xie family had worshipped for a hundred years would actually appear.
As she walked along, Old Lady Xie recalled the heavy rain that fell over the ancestral hall of the mansion that day. The fate of the Xie family was beyond her imagination.
Once people experience life and death, their perspective on life will be very different.
Now it seems that the change has spread, whether from Xiong Jiushan's words or from their interactions with the convicts in the same team.
Old Madam Xie had no idea what her grandson Xie Yuchuan was thinking after this incident.
Among all the sons of the Xie family, there is only one like him.
The second son, Shenxing, was also naughty when he was young, but he strictly followed the etiquette and laws in matters concerning gods, and became much more stable as he grew older.
Only Xie Yuchuan was a child who was both rebellious and traditional since childhood.
It's not easy to raise him. He always has his own ideas about people and the world. It's harder than climbing Mount Everest to get him to follow the rules, but he is the child whose parents don't care about his wealth or status the most.
His family loves and hates him.
Even Mrs. Xie was not sure what Xie Yuchuan was thinking after this incident.
"Old Madam, according to what Lord Xiong said, the general and his men have not yet revealed their divine presence in suppressing the bandits."
On the side, Zhang Dayi listened quietly to what Xiong Jiushan said to Mrs. Xie, and grasped the key point.
When the Xie family heard what he said, their expressions couldn't help but become slightly more nervous.
Old Madam Xie held the ball of thread in her hand, frowned and nodded.
"Now it seems that we have all worked hard to overcome this hurdle, which is a good thing."
Everyone in the tent looked at each other, and soon everyone's expressions became slightly excited.
"Madam, are you saying this is a calamity?"
The heads of the Xie family looked at each other, and soon everyone silently agreed with what Mrs. Xie said.
Zhang Dayi stroked his beard lightly, his eyes filled with joy after everyone had overcome the disaster together.
"No wonder the general and his men sent so many armors and weapons before the expedition. This is their intention."
Madam Xie raised her eyes and said solemnly, "When we raise our children, we always hope that they will learn to be self-reliant. We are afraid that spoiling them too much will ruin their future. Not to mention that they are protected by gods."
After thinking about this matter over and over again, Mrs. Xie also felt that this was the only explanation.
During the previous exile, even if there were difficulties along the way, it was never a crisis, let alone a test.
After escaping the danger safely, Mrs. Xie reviewed the situation silently, but she was shocked.
This matter reveals people's character everywhere. If it weren't for Yuchuan's temperament, she would have secretly put the temperaments of other people in the Xie family in Liuzi's position.
I was shocked to realize that if it weren't for Yuchuan, the situation might not have been what it is now.
Those who hate evil more than Yuchuan will never compromise with others, and those who sympathize with the weak more than him may not take advantage of others.
What exactly does the Xie family god want to see?
This question has been lingering in Mrs. Xie's mind.
No matter what.
This level is passed.
Now we have to wait until Yuchuan comes back to know the full picture.
Mrs. Xie does have this patience and confidence.
She looked determined and calm.
The others were also full of confidence and only looked forward to Xie Yuchuan's return.
Everyone knows that after today, many things have changed.
But no one has any idea of what it will look like.
Even someone like Zhang Dayi did not dare to speculate casually. After all, in the vast documents, he had never seen how a family protected by a true god developed.
It is a great honor to have the opportunity to glimpse a few words about the founding of the country from the writings of our predecessors.
However, those sporadic records about the destiny protected by the gods ultimately led to events as great as the change of dynasties and the creation of the world.
And now, Zhang Dayi is directly under such protection.
What the future holds.
Who dares to really imagine it?
Madam Xie coughed lightly, interrupting everyone's thoughts. "Since there aren't any unexpected events right now, I think you should take good care of yourself and rest up, so you can be refreshed and energetic when you set off tomorrow."
"What the old lady said is very true."
Thinking can't solve the problem of when Xie Yuchuan will return, nor can it change the current situation of camping tonight. Just as Mrs. Xie said, it is better to rest early and get enough energy to continue on the journey.
Zhang Dayi couldn't sleep. He was already full of thoughts, and now he had new hope in his life. It was a time of great ambition. The Xie family's survival of the crisis this time was not entirely due to the Xie family. The entire Fukuzawa team of exiles had too many things to study after they set off tomorrow.
However, all ideas must wait until Xie Yuchuan returns before they can be discussed.
Mrs. Xie is old and is worried about others, so it is not easy for her to fall asleep.
So, those who couldn’t sleep just did their own thing.
Zhang Dayi went to find a set of paper and pen, lowered his head and wrote and drew silently, no one knew what he was thinking about.
Old Madam Xie accompanied the female members of the family in doing work, if for no other reason than that having her hands busy would help her have fewer distracting thoughts in her mind.
Among all the people, only the most innocent child, Xie Jiarui, fell asleep as soon as he was told to. After a while, a small snoring sound was heard.
Like a kitten, so cute.
Everyone who saw this couldn't help but curl their lips slightly. A young life always makes people feel hopeful.
Ruan stayed by her son's side, folding clothes in her hands, touching her son's forehead from time to time to check his temperature.
Ruan looked up and whispered, "It's strange to say, but I feel like Rui'er's body seems to be much stronger than when he was in the mansion."
Others laughed.
Ruan's mother-in-law, Madam Zhou, laughed and said, "In the past, you were treated like a precious treasure in the mansion, and you were a little pampered when you were born. But being out in the wind and sun is actually a good way to train yourself."
Ruan nodded vigorously.
Xie Zhen stood up and came over. He squatted beside the child and looked at him for a while. Then he looked up and asked Ruan: "Sister-in-law, could it be that Rui'er is walking with the help of the household spirits?"
Ruan was stunned, "Yes, that's right."
"He didn't complain about being tired these past two days, and I almost forgot about it."
Xie Zhen's mother, Shen, was a very gentle person. Upon hearing this, she couldn't help but smile lightly and said, "Ever since Rui'er's legs have improved, I've noticed that he's been able to eat and sleep well. When he does fall asleep, he's not as easily awakened as before, and instead, he's very focused."
After she said this, everyone seemed to notice this matter. Before, they were all busy escaping and had no time to pay attention to the details.
The adults were protecting all the children in the exile team and helping them get on with their journey. Xie Jiarui's subtle changes were only noticed at this moment.
After a moment of silence, someone suddenly said:
"Young Master, can you see the household god even if you are sleeping so soundly?"
