Chen Yuxian didn't understand what love was, but that didn't stop her from thinking about Tang Tong. Most women of this era were easily satisfied. As long as their men showed a little affection for them, they would repay them with more, not to mention a woman like Chen Yuxian who had experienced hardships.
In this era, there are very few men who treat the women in their family as equally as Tang Tong. Although Tang Tong is not a good man compared to those five husbands in later generations, in this era, in the eyes of Chen Yuxian and the women in the neighborhood, Tang Tong is truly an excellent man, which makes many women envy Chen Yuxian in their hearts.
After receiving the letter from Tang Tong's men and knowing that Tang Tong was coming, Chen Yuxian, Hongniangzi, Liu Rushi, and Yuan'er were all waiting at home. When Tang Tong appeared at her doorstep, Yuan'er immediately threw herself into his arms: "Uncle, Yuan'er misses you so much."
Liu Rushi, who had grown into a somewhat young girl, smiled, but she envied Yuan'er for being able to act like a spoiled child in Tang Tong's arms. Although Chen Yuxian had a thousand words in her heart, she only said softly, "You're here."
Hongniang has read a lot of books in school in the past year and has lost her former wildness. She stood quietly by the side and looked at Tang Tong, while the servants of the Tang family lined up respectfully on both sides of the gate.
Although it wasn't a big deal, Tang Tong was still very happy when he just got home. After all, when a person arrives at his home and his family comes out to welcome him, he should feel happy.
Tang Tong held Yuan'er in one hand and Chen Yuxian in the other, and said with a faint smile, "Are you still young?"
Tang Tong has experienced a lot now and is no longer the man who was not good at speaking before. However, he doesn't have much to say at this moment, because many words are not as good as a gentle greeting at this time.
"Uncle, we are here. It's just Yuan'er who misses you." Yuan'er hugged Tang Tong's neck and rubbed against his body affectionately. Because of Tang Tong, Yuan'er could be said to be a little mistress in this Weizhenjun station. Even in Changzhou, people might not know what the current emperor does, but no one didn't know Yuan'er, this lovely and cute little girl, because everyone here knew that this little girl was Lord Tang's darling. No matter who lived in the Weizhenjun station, they all had a fawning expression on their faces when they saw Yuan'er.
Tang Tong also noticed this change. Xiao Yuan'er was no longer the timid little girl she used to be. Her personality was much more cheerful than before. Tang Tong saw that everyone looked good, and he knew that everyone had been living a good life recently. At this time, neighbors came over one by one to greet Tang Tong. Because Tang Tong had become more approachable in the past two years, the people in the Weizhen Office also changed from being afraid of Tang Tong to being respectful.
After Tang Tong greeted the neighbors, he went home with Chen Yuxian and the others. Needless to say, they were very affectionate after meeting again after a long separation. The next day, after Tang Tong got up, he went to visit Song Yingxing's research institute. Although Song Yingxing had added a lot of students, Westerners now accounted for the majority of the institute.
The reason why so many Westerners came here was thanks to that Portuguese man. After he arrived in Europe, in order to make a lot of money, this Portuguese man did everything he could to cheat and deceive people. He even brought in more than a hundred talents from various industries from various European countries, especially those who were persecuted by the European church, who accounted for half of these people. According to the Portuguese man, this way he could make a lot of money and save these poor lambs.
Tang Tong himself also wanted to examine these talents from the West, so as not to let those who were just filling in the numbers mix in. During this examination, even people like Tang Tong couldn't help but smile so much that their mouths were distorted.
The reason why Tang Tong was so happy was that there were two super talented people in this group of people. One of them was Galileo, who was very familiar to everyone. This old man, who was nearly seventy years old, had been persecuted by the church for the past ten years. His life was miserable. In a word, his old age was bleak. After being found by the Portuguese, he heard that there was a large and advanced scientific research institute in Ming Dynasty and many advanced scientific and technological achievements. So, Galileo, who was devoted to science, ignored the hardships of the journey and followed the Portuguese to Ming Dynasty.
