Chapter 823: It turns out to be Young Master Yang’s grandmother
The village chief squeezed out of the crowd and walked in front of Su Laowu.
"Hahaha... Laowu, very good, you have brought honor to our Daliushu Village!" The village chief laughed and patted Su Laowu on the shoulder.
The news that Su Laowu had learned about Yuan had already been passed back to Tang Bao and others.
After the notice is posted in the provincial capital, a report will be sent to the counties below.
The county would send yamen runners to report to every household.
The ones from the Su family were naturally sent back by Su Laoer.
At this time, everyone else also gathered around Su Laowu.
"You can't call me Lao Wu anymore, you should call me Juren Master..."
"That's right... This is the first scholar in our village..."
"Hahahaha... We can enjoy Brother Su's buffet again..."
"That's right...hahaha..."
Everyone laughed and looked excited.
At this time, someone noticed the village chief patting Su Laowu on the shoulder and laughed and joked, "Village chief, you can't do that. Laowu is already a juren. You, a rough guy, dare to pat a juren on the shoulder. You don't want your hand back anymore, do you?"
Upon hearing this, the village chief immediately raised his hand high and said loudly with great pride: "See? I have patted the emperor's shoulder with this hand! Now I pat the shoulder of the scholar, what's wrong with that?"
Back then, after the village chief learned of Emperor Tianxi’s true identity, he remembered that he had once patted Emperor Tianxi on the shoulder and almost offered up his hand as a sacrifice.
Rising tides lift all boats. Because he had patted the emperor on the shoulder, the village chief felt that his status had been invisibly improved a lot.
After Emperor Tianxi left Daliushu Village, the village chief held up his hand every day and told the villagers about the dignity of his hand. He was reluctant to wash his hands for almost half a year.
After hearing what the village chief said, everyone thought of the situation back then and burst into laughter.
In the lively atmosphere, Old Man Su led his entire family over.
Not surprisingly, the Su family went straight to Tang Bao, leaving Su Laowu aside.
Fortunately, when several brothers of the Su family passed by Su Laowu, they patted him on the shoulder and chatted with him to comfort him.
"Daughter, do you miss your daddy?" Old man Su asked his catchphrase happily.
Now that my little girl is back, I feel relieved.
"I thought about it." Tang Bao answered happily.
"younger sister!"
"Aunt!"
"Auntie!"
…
The Su family members surrounded Tang Bao and talked a lot.
By the way, Old Man Su and others also rushed back from the fields, all wearing coarse cloth clothes.
Especially the men in the Su family, their clothes were not only washed white, but also patched.
Among them, Old Man Su's was the most exaggerated, almost catching up with the leader of the Beggars' Sect.
Bai Shuqing couldn't help but scream.
"Their family really is a farmer!"
Look at the patches on his clothes, one next to the other, the straw hat on his head, the edges are all bald, and the straw sandals on his feet...
Isn’t this the dress of a country bumpkin?
Bai Shuqing looked at Bai Shuan.
Bai Shuan's face was also filled with shock.
The last time they met the Su family in the capital, although their clothes were not very luxurious, they were still very decent.
In his current state, he can beg for food with just a broken bowl.
The brother and sister looked at each other.
"Their family... can't be very poor, right? When they were in the provincial capital, were they trying to pretend to be rich?" Bai Shuqing guessed.
Bai Shuan: "... shouldn't it be?"
The last question mark indicates a lack of confidence.
The Empress Dowager got off the carriage and was stunned for a moment when she saw how the Su family members were dressed.
Then, it became clear.
A hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.
Although he has become rich, he has not forgotten his roots. There are probably not many people in the world who can be so calm.
This shows that the Su family has a strong character, a broad mind, a strict family tradition, and simple qualities...
The Empress Dowager's evaluation of the Su family has been raised to another level.
"Grandma, please slow down." Xuanyuan Jin supported the Empress Dowager and walked towards Old Man Su and others.
As soon as Old Man Su saw the Empress Dowager, his legs went weak and he was about to kneel down.
The other members of the Su family were also prepared. As soon as Old Man Su knelt down, they would follow suit.
The Empress Dowager remained calm and gave Nanny Chen a look.
Nanny Chen immediately smiled and said, "Master Su, our old lady has heard that your place is beautiful, so she came to stay for a few days."
Old Man Su: “…”
He strained his legs but didn't bend.
Does the Empress Dowager mean... not to reveal her identity?
"Nephew Su, congratulations to your son for winning the imperial examination. I heard that your family is going to have a buffet, and I have to join in the fun..." The Empress Dowager said with a smile.
After hearing what the Empress Dowager said, Old Man Su straightened his legs completely.
The other members of the Su family stood behind Old Man Su and also straightened their legs.
"Welcome, welcome... It's an honor for our Su family that you can come." Old man Su said excitedly.
While saying this, he had already started thinking about the dishes for tomorrow's buffet.
The Empress Dowager is having a feast, so the food can't be too bad...
The village chief came over and asked in confusion, "Who is this old lady..."
"This is my grandmother." Xuanyuan Jin said.
"Oh, it turns out to be Young Master Yang's grandmother..."
The village chief nodded in sudden realization.
However, halfway through the order, his eyes suddenly widened.
grandmother? ? ? ? ?
The village chief was dumbfounded.
Not only the village chief was shocked, but the people around were also shocked.
Young Master Yang’s father is the Emperor, so Young Master Yang’s grandmother is… the Empress Dowager?
The village chief felt his legs a little weak and his heart beating a little faster.
Others also felt a little unsteady.
For a moment, even though there were so many people, there was complete silence.
Everyone's eyes turned to the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother had a kind smile on her face.
"Legitimate grandmother?" the village chief asked hesitantly.
Xuanyuan Jin nodded calmly.
"My biological grandmother!"
village head:"……"
My legs were completely limp.
Just as he was about to kneel down, he was grabbed by Old Man Su.
"Village chief, Mrs. Bai is coming to stay in our village for a while, we must treat her well." Old man Su said loudly.
As he spoke, he winked at the village chief.
Village chief: "...Yes, yes, treat them well..."
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and stood up tremblingly.
When the other villagers saw this, they also understood.
She is indeed the emperor’s mother!
Like the emperor, he loves to go on incognito visits.
Finally, these people have seen the emperor. Now when they see the emperor's mother, no matter how shocked they are in their hearts, they keep a straight face.
However, the originally lively and cheerful scene became much more restrained.
The Empress Dowager understood what was going on, but she didn't say anything. After entering the village, she went straight to the mansion.
She wanted to take a good look at the place where her grandson had lived for so many years.
As for those cumbersome formalities, it is better to avoid them if possible.
