323 Reunion

The reason why Liushu Village is called Liushu Village is because there are many willow trees in this village, especially at the entrance of the village and on the road leading to it, there are many old willow trees. Even in this dry summer, these willow trees are often watered so that they can survive. Now after a heavy rain, they have regained their vitality. Although it is autumn, they are still so green and pleasant.

However, the green willow trees cannot hide the dilapidated houses in Willow Village, making it still a poor village in the countryside.

Jia Yueer sat in the carriage, lifted the curtains, looked at everything, frowned, and wondered if she had walked out from here? She didn't remember much in her mind, but she remembered that she was still young when she left. It seemed that in her memory, there were also these shabby houses and bumpy roads, and the country people who were wearing rustic clothes, whether they were patched or not. She saw someone coming and put down the curtains. She didn't want others to see her.

The coachman drove the carriage into the village. The arrival of the carriage attracted a lot of people's attention. There were also children walking along the carriage. When they saw the carriage stop in front of Zhao's house, they all stared with wide eyes.

Even the Liu family saw it, but they were now having some conflicts with the Zhao family, so they didn't dare to move forward for fear of being laughed at, but they still watched from a distance.

This is how it is in this village. If something happens in someone's family or someone comes, almost the entire village will pay attention and everyone will know about it in a short while.

The coachman got off the carriage, stood in front of Zhao's house and asked, "Is anyone home? Is anyone home?"

Zhao Daxi was weaving baskets in the main room when he heard someone knocking on the door. He stood up and looked outside. He saw a well-dressed man. He stood up quickly and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

The coachman asked, "Is this Zhao Daxi's home?"

Old man Zhao nodded quickly and said, "I am Zhao Daxi. What do you want to talk to me about?"

When the coachman saw that he had found the right person, he quickly said, "You have a visitor. Wait, I will invite you down from the carriage."

The coachman immediately turned around and went back to the carriage, saying to the inside: "Two girls, this is Zhao Daxi's home."

Aunt Yue got off the car, and the maid also got off the car. Both of them were wearing cloaks with hoods, so their faces and figures could not be seen clearly. All that could be seen was that both of them were dressed well.

"Wait here, we'll be out in a minute. Don't tell anyone anything if they ask you anything."

The maid took out a small piece of silver and handed it to the coachman, then she and Jia Yue'er entered the courtyard together. The coachman sat in the carriage and waited. He didn't want to offend this wealthy guest just by saying a few more words. Besides, he really didn't know who these two female guests were, and he didn't even see their appearance clearly!

As soon as Aunt Yue entered the courtyard, she asked the maid to close the gate and to guard it and not to leave. She stood there and looked at the old man in front of her, Zhao Daxi. Zhao Daxi was already an old man with wrinkles on his face. His back was hunched because of years of hard work. He looked like a farmer who had worked hard in the fields all his life. He did not look rich at all, but rather shabby and humble. Aunt Yue frowned, thinking that this was her father. How could he have become so old?

Zhao Daxi looked at Aunt Yue standing in front of the courtyard gate. He couldn't see what she looked like because her face was completely covered by a big hat. But from her light green silk cape, her goose-yellow skirt, and her silk embroidered shoes with only a small tip of her shoe showing under the skirt, he felt that she was a woman from a wealthy family. He didn't even dare to look at her.

"Old man, who's here?"

Zhao Yang also heard the noise from inside the house and came out. When she saw the graceful figure in the yard, although her face was not clearly visible, she was surprised. She didn't need to look at the person's appearance, just by looking at her age and figure, she could tell that this was Aunt Yue whom she had seen in the town a few days ago!

"Ah! My—"

Zhao Yang's voice stopped with a gesture from Aunt Yue. Aunt Yue didn't want anyone to hear Zhao Yang calling out her name, because that would mean everything would be over. She believed that there must be many people outside listening.

Although Zhao Yang didn't say anything, she ran over quickly, grabbed Aunt Yue's hand, and said softly: "My son! You are finally back! You missed me so much! You are such a heartless person! I have been wanting to see you these days, but I couldn't even get into the Zhang family's house! You didn't even say you wanted to come back to see me! I thought you were dead outside! I am so miserable——"

Zhao Yang started to cry as she spoke. She really cared about her daughter, otherwise she wouldn't have spent money to travel so far to see her every year. When she first knew that something happened to the nun and her daughter was missing, she was almost worried to death. The Shen family's wedding was coming up, and in order to make it easier to explain and not be asked to return the betrothal gifts they had asked for, they married Su Zhi, who had a strange disease and could not remember clearly. But they had always wondered where their daughter was. They were naturally very happy to finally know that she was not dead and was living a good life.

Aunt Yue saw Zhao Yang holding her but not daring to cry out loud, and she felt a little uncomfortable. She thought her parents loved her very much and always visited her. Her mother and father had only not seen each other for two years, and they had aged so much in a short time. They must have been so anxious because of her, right? She finally felt a little guilty.

"Dad, Mom, let's talk inside. Don't let anyone hear us."

"Okay, okay, let's go inside and talk!"

When Zhao Yang heard Aunt Yue calling her mother, she wiped her tears happily, pulled her towards the main room, pulled her into the inner room, and let her sit on the kang.

"Let me take a look at you. You are really more beautiful than before. You really are a real beauty because of your clothes. You are worthy of being my daughter!"

Zhao Yang saw Aunt Yue take off her veil, revealing her lovely face, and she couldn't stop praising her.

At this time, Lianhua and Zhao Yuanbao also came in, and Zhang followed behind with her son in her arms.

"Sister, sister, you are back, sister."

As soon as Lianhua saw Aunt Yue, she recognized her as the Aunt Yue she met on the street that time, and immediately ran over to call her. Lianhua was also jealous of Aunt Yue, but much better than Su Zhi, because Aunt Yue appeared in front of her with a dignified and noble look, unlike Su Zhi at first, who was so ugly and dirty. Moreover, this was her biological sister, unlike Su Zhi, who was just a stranger from nowhere.

Lianhua looked at Aunt Yue's silk dress, the hairpin on her head, and the glittering gold on her hands, her eyes full of envy.

"Sister, I am Lotus."

Aunt Yue smiled and took Lianhua's hand, saying, "I know you are Lianhua. I can tell at first glance that you are my sister. We look a bit alike. When you grow up, you will be prettier than your sister. Here, this is given to you by your sister."

Lianhua felt a chill on her wrist and when she looked down, she saw a white jade bracelet on her wrist. Her eyes lit up and she quickly touched it with her hand, simply unable to let it go.

"Thank you, sister!"

Lianhua thought to herself that this was her real sister, so generous! Unlike Su Zhi, who was simply too stingy! However, she had not thought that Su Zhi's family was not rich at all before, but later on they became rich and gave her a lot. Even if the Shen family was rich, they could not compare to the Zhang family, let alone the jewelry on the favored concubine of the Zhang family. Su Zhi herself did not have much jewelry, and she was not the kind of person who liked to wear gold and silver.

Zhao Yuanbao looked at the noble and imposing woman in front of him and thought that this was his own sister. After he grew up, he had gone to see her several times with his parents and thought that his sister was much prettier than before. It was true that people who live a good life will get better and better as they grow older.

"Little sister."

Zhao Yuanbao just screamed once and couldn't say anything else.

Jia Yueer smiled at him and said, "Brother, please don't call me little sister anymore. I'm Jia Yueer now. If you call me little sister and others hear it, it will be exposed."

Zhao Yuanbao immediately said, "Yue'er, this is a good name. No wonder others call you Aunt Yue."

Zhang also interrupted and said, "That's right, sister, you are like the moon in the sky, you are so beautiful, no wonder you are so favored. Sister, come and see, this is your little nephew."

Jia Yueer presented Zhang with a gift, teased the little baby, and gave her a gift for meeting her, which was a gold hairpin and a gold ingot. Zhang happily accepted them, which made Zhao Yang jealous, thinking that her daughter had no reason to give them such expensive gifts. If she had to give anything, she should give it to her! Once it was in Zhang's hands, there was no way it could get out.

The family greeted each other and became friendly. They sat together and began to talk about what had happened since they separated. The Zhao family asked Aunt Yue why she didn't come home in the first place, and why she didn't send a letter home since she had settled down in the Zhang family.

Aunt Yue briefly explained, and finally said to her family pitifully: "There is such an engagement at home. I don't want to get married, but I am afraid that you will not agree. I just want to go to a master's family, and then I met Master Zhang on the way. I fell in love with him at first sight and thought he was my destined man. But I didn't want him to know that I had an engagement, for fear that he would be unwilling to accept me, so I said I was an orphan.

I originally wanted to get back on my feet and contact my family. Later, I heard that my younger sister Zhao was married. I was even more afraid to come back. I saw my mother and sister on the street that day, and I couldn't help but come back. But my family was watching me closely, so I came here secretly. "

Aunt Yue said that she was helpless and asked her family to understand her.

The Zhao family benefited from her. Although they were angry that she had caused trouble for the family before, they could not blame her now.

When Aunt Yue saw that her family no longer blamed her, she told them the purpose of her visit.

, your support is my biggest motivation. PS: I plan to resume the modern fiction that has been off for a long time, but for this one, I have some minor health problems, so I don’t have enough motivation. I may update it occasionally. I’m sorry, dear friends. Now I don’t even dare to say sorry to the friends on the modern fiction side. I have to finish that side quickly. Otherwise, my nervous stomachache will get worse. I’ve been under too much pressure recently, and I don’t even dare to read book reviews. I don’t ask for forgiveness. I can only promise to keep updating. Thank you.
