"Ah Chen, you—"
Don't tell me the two chieftains didn't believe it--
The aunties and girls nearby also thought they were hallucinating.
Not only did Ah Chen return, but he also quietly reappeared among them?
What's wrong with me?
Ah Chen stood up, smiling as he surveyed the stunned crowd, then looked at the dumbfounded Grandpa Tang and the clan elder.
"The two chieftains--"
"Surprised? Unexpected?"
"Hahaha--"
Ah Chen burst into laughter and shouted outside, "Here, come in!"
Counting seconds--
Before the core Miao people in the room could recover from their complete disbelief and shock, Tang Abao, Zhao Akang, Mu Azhuang, and a dozen others rushed in.
"Haha--Achen, we saw the signal, and when we came over, we saw all the lights in your house were on, so we guessed that you might be back."
"Look, I heard Tang Ayi and the others talking about it down the mountain, and it really is you."
"Haha--Achen!!!"
With Ah Chen's return, not to mention Mu A Zhuang!
The most excited were Tang Abao and Zhao Akang from the Jackals.
Because they are Achen's Miao guard leaders.
Ah Bao had seen Ah Chen in Xiangxi before, and things were a little better, but he hadn't seen Zhao A Kang for a full ten months.
"Achen--"
He came up, but unfortunately, before he could even get close to Achen, he was pushed away by the clan elder who had come to his senses.
"Mu Achen, you scoundrel Miao boy—"
The clan elder raised his pipe, but didn't knock it down.
Grandpa Tang strode forward, circled Ah Chen twice, and after confirming that he wasn't dreaming, he laughed.
What a pleasant surprise!
That was so unexpected.
The aunties and Miao men were the same, but the younger women were the happiest.
No one expected that, as they kept reciting the words, Ah Chen would quietly return.
The key is--
He's still hanging around among them!
During the day, they would recognize it at a glance, but at night—
Everyone is using electricity, but the voltage is insufficient.
The lighting is dim.
"Ah Chen, --"
"Ah Chen, when did you arrive?"
"Why didn't you call ahead, Ah Chen? Have you eaten yet?"
The aunties squeezed in.
Uncle Dong, Uncle Gan, Uncle Rong, and other uncles of the same generation also gathered around.
One by one, they were so excited that their eyes turned red.
These days, they think about it all the time!
Especially after hearing that Ah Chen went to Qionghai and Xiangxi--
It's mainly western Hunan!
They were worried that Ah Chen would stay there permanently.
…
tonight--
Their future Miao king appeared before everyone without a word.
Because we weren't prepared.
That's why they were startled and frightened.
Then--
Cheers!
Especially the two chieftains, even now, they still feel—
It was indeed unexpected, and indeed a pleasant surprise.
"Mu Achen--"
In the end, the patriarch's pipe ended up in Ah Chen's possession.
It wasn't his head, but his buttocks, and he was hit several times in a row.
Hahaha--
They burst into laughter!
Grandma Heiwu Village squeezed through the crowd, looked at Ah Chen, and pulled him along.
Rather than calling him the future Miao king, it's more accurate to say that he's a Miao man from the Mu family branch, the same family as Grandma.
They're still within the five degrees of kinship!
Then came Achen's next generation, and then Gou Dan's next generation.
We're about to cross the fifth degree of mourning.
They now--
They are too close by blood.
Ah Chen also held the old woman's hand tightly.
"Achen--"
Before the shouts had even faded, the mother-in-law, having received the news, rushed in from outside.
The father-in-law, Tang Ayue, was also following behind.
Unlike the other Miao people, the mother-in-law knew that Achen had been injured in Yanjing a few months ago.
She was heartbroken!
If Amo hadn't said she'd be back in early July, her mother-in-law would have already gone to Xique Miao to get the best Miao medicine for bone injuries there.
Then Tang Abao and the others took her to that port city to treat her son-in-law's injuries.
"Ah Chen, let me see my hands--"
Previously, the mother-in-law kept thinking about Miaowa.
But when she heard that Ah Chen was injured, she stopped reading.
Anyway, as Amo said, the plan is in place.
now--
Ah Chen was surrounded by his mother-in-law and the Miao people.
"You're all better now, Mother. Don't worry."
Seeing the concerned smiling faces in front of him, Achen felt a warmth in his heart.
Everyone asked him what he had been busy with during the ten months he was away.
But all the problems eventually boil down to one sentence:
"Ah Chen, are you still going out?"
…
Half an hour later--
Everyone sat down again.
"Ah Chen, Guolin--"
Just as the clan elder was about to tell Achen about the orchard, Achen interrupted him.
"Grandpa, I just got back! Aren't you tired? We can talk about the orchard later. I want to drink rice wine and eat chicken porridge!"
"You little Miao brat, you even know that our Miao rice wine is delicious and our chicken porridge is tasty!" the clan elder complained.
Hahaha--
Another burst of laughter erupted!
The mother-in-law next door called over a few aunties and they went to kill chickens and geese.
She had fed several old geese, just waiting for Ah Chen to come back so she could slaughter them and make soup for her son-in-law to nourish his body.
After all, I've been busy outside for so long, and I've lost some weight.
I need to make up for it this time I'm back.
It's extremely nourishing.
I'll be able to hold my grandson next year.
"Duoduo, come quick, get something for your auntie--"
The mother-in-law called out from outside.
"Auntie's here!"
Duoduo ran out.
