Chapter 273 Song Dekui Reports
This story begins yesterday evening.
The day before, his sister went to the provincial capital to see a doctor, and Song Zhenping was in a very anxious mood.
He originally wanted to go with them, but Yun'er told him to stay at home and keep in the best condition while waiting for the surgery.
In modern hospitals, every bone setting operation requires various examinations in advance.
Here, Song Liyun could only hope that he would not catch a cold or have stomach problems.
Busy from morning to afternoon, Song Zhenping watered the vegetable garden and tidied up the house. When he was about to climb up to the attic to rearrange Heijin's winter nest, an uninvited guest came to Baolinju.
Heijin and Xiaohuagou were the first to notice someone knocking on the door.
One was barking, and the other was climbing on the door frame and looking out.
The barking of the dog startled Xiao An and Yun Niang in the side yard. Xiao An ran away quickly and saw that Hei Jin was hanging on the door frame, scratching his ears and cheeks and had no malicious intent, so he pulled open the bolt.
When Xiao An saw the skinny guy outside, covered in dust and with his hair and clothes in a mess, he shouted in surprise, "Uncle Kui!"
He turned around and shouted to the courtyard, "Brother, brother, it's Uncle Kui from the village head's family."
Song Dekui dropped the whip in his hand, strode over to Xiao An, pulled him to take a closer look, and said with a look of surprise: "Xiao An? You are Xiao An! Good fellow, you have grown half a head in just one year. Uncle Kui almost didn't recognize you."
Xiao An chuckled shyly, "Uncle Kui, my brother's legs are going to be healed! He'll be able to run and jump again!"
"Okay, that's good! Where are your brother and sister?" After the surprise, Song Dekui asked hurriedly when he saw that Song Liyun and Song Zhenping had not come out.
Yunniang, who had followed out, saw Xiaoan and Song Dekui being affectionate, and knew they were from her hometown. She hurried forward and bowed, saying, "The host is in the attic and will be here soon. The young lady is not at home, so please come inside and have a seat."
Song Dekui had never met Yunniang before, and was so flustered by her greeting that he responded with a retort: "You're welcome! You're welcome!"
Song Zhenping also came out of the attic. Seeing Song Dekui, he was naturally surprised and happy: "Uncle Kui, Uncle Kui!"
The uncle and nephew were affectionate again.
Seeing that Song Dekui was covered in dust, Song Zhenping hurriedly asked Yunniang to boil some hot water, and he took out a new set of clothes and gave them to him to change and wash.
By the time Song Dekui cleaned himself up, Yunniang had already prepared several dishes, and Song Zhenping and others sat down with him to eat.
After running on the road for a day and a night, Song Dekui was already starving. When he saw meat, eggs and white flour buns on the table, he immediately started to eat them voraciously with a smile on his face.
While eating, he asked vaguely: "Daping, you guys are really living a good life now."
Song Zhenping also had a lot of questions to ask about his arrival.
It was obvious that he was very hungry, but he still endured it until Song Dekui put down his chopsticks.
"Ugh!" Song Dekui burped loudly. Looking at the table full of food, he had eaten up most of it. Then he said embarrassedly, "I only took two pancakes with me when I left last night. I haven't eaten anything all day."
Song Zhenping was a little nervous: "Uncle Kui, is...something wrong with that family?"
He didn't want to mention the name of his second uncle's family.
Song Dekui frowned and said, "Daping, there's something you need to calm down."
"What do you mean?" Song Zhenping clenched the chopsticks in his hand, and the uneasiness that had always been there suddenly emerged.
"Someone contacted the town office and notified your second uncle's family that you were in Suijin Town.
The fact that Yun girl ran away from her marriage has also been discovered. Now Mr. Xue's family and your second uncle's family have heard the news and want to take Yun girl away.
Last year, thieves broke into your second uncle's house and stole all his belongings... Your grandmother has been ill for quite some time now, paralyzed on the kang..."
Song Zhenping's face turned pale: "How could this happen!"
The bad guys finally showed up.
Xiao An stood up and ran back to the side yard. He dragged out Song Zhenping's armor and long sword with a clang. "Brother, if they come, just chop them down."
Song Dekui was shocked when he saw these weapons and shouted, "Oh my God, where did you get these from? Are they taboo?"
This thing is a prohibited item among the people according to the imperial law.
Song Dekui didn't know that the garrison had distributed armor to the Song family.
When Song Zhenping saw the armor, he immediately felt confident: "I am now a military household, and I have a garrison above me. Even if they come, they can't do anything to me."
"Yes, you are a military household now. If I want to take you away, I need Captain Luo's consent!"
Song Dekui took the shining long sword from his hand and played with it repeatedly. It was indeed a real thing.
Song Zhenping did not hide this matter. When Han Ming returned home, he told him everything.
Han Ming was not clear about the Song family's past.
When he heard that the people from his hometown were obviously coming for the three siblings, he frowned.
The Wu Dynasty ruled the country with filial piety. The one who came was an elder. Even though Song Zhenping was transferred to a military household, they were still a family member in the family tree.
What's more, he said that his grandmother was critically ill, and if Song Zhenping, the eldest grandson of the eldest house, wanted to go back to fulfill his filial duties, Captain Luo would not be able to stop him.
This is not easy to do!
Fortunately, Song Dekui had informed Baolinju of the news in advance, so they were well prepared.
Song Dekui got the news the day before yesterday. His elder brother, who was a minor official in the town government office at the time, returned home overnight and said that someone in Songfeng County, to which Qingping Town belongs, had reported the whereabouts of Song Zhenping and Song Liyun.
The theft case in Song Laoer's house and Song Liyun's escape from marriage had long been recorded in the Songfeng County Court. Now that they had received the news, they were going to arrest the person and bring him to justice.
Song Dequan went home to report the news, asking his family to find a way to quickly notify his brothers and sisters to hide away. This was no joke.
Song Lizheng had long seen through the lazy and gluttonous behavior of Song Laoer's family. He knew that once the three siblings were brought back, their good days would be over.
Therefore, Song Dekui was arranged to set off that night on his family's old mule, risking his life to travel all night, and avoiding towns during the day, and finally arrived at Suijin Town.
Because Song Liyun was not at home and Han Ming was an outsider, Song Dekui did not dare to tell anyone about the escaped marriage case. He could only wait for Song Liyun to come back to discuss it.
Han Ming knew that the matter was serious, so he asked Song Zhenping to notify the garrison, while he went to the town to find Xue Zhuang and others.
Everyone was on high alert, so that's why Song Laoer and his group were surrounded as soon as they arrived.
In the yard, Song Laoer looked at Song Zhenping and Xiao An, whom he hadn't seen for a year, and could hardly believe his eyes.
The skinny Song Zhenping now has broad shoulders and a broad back, holding a long knife with murderous intent, like an enraged leopard. He is completely different from the little chicken who only knew how to hold his head in silence and let himself be beaten whenever he wanted.
He even doubted whether he could still win!
And Xiao An, if he were walking on the street, I would definitely not recognize him.
He had grown fatter and taller, and the eyes staring at him contained no fear or timidity, only hatred, as if he wanted to pounce on him and bite him.
Next to Song Lao Er, Xiao Gu kept looking around. She noticed the clothes of Song Zhenping and Xiao An at first sight.
