Chapter 1： The father is insulted, the son will return (1/2)
The sky was shrouded in gray clouds, and the darkness revealed some depressing atmosphere. Eight [
Surrounded by these mountains, there is a small village. The villagers are no more than thirty or forty households, struggling to survive by relying on the occasional barren land between the mountain peaks. At the moment when the sun was rising and Chenhui sprayed, the teenager in the room opened his eyes at the same time, and after a brief confusion, his face showed the calmness of his peers.
Hurrying to get up and wash briefly, Xiao Chen hurriedly walked out. Today is the day of entering the city in the early spring to collect the seeds needed for a year, but he needs to hurry up and bring some dry food out early to avoid being unable to return home at night.
But after stepping out of the door, what he saw in front of him made him stunned, and then laughed: ”Why did my father and mother get up so early? Rest assured, I remember today is the date to get the seeds, and it will not be delayed.”
Father Xiao Wenshan implicitly looked at his son, waved his hands after hearing the words, and said, ”Changing on my clothes, I will go into the city with you today.”
When Xiao Chen heard a word, he realized that his father had put on the most solemn ethnic dress today. On weekdays, he would only dress so solemnly on the day of the clan sacrifice. Although he didn't understand what was going on, he nodded slightly. After returning to the room, he took out a brocade embroidered blue gown from the bottom of the only dilapidated box.
Breakfast passed by in silence. Xiao mother's eyes were a bit worried, and she opened her mouth several times, but was stopped by Xiao's severe eyes.
”Let's go.”
After leaving the gate, looking at the blue carriage parked outside the door, Xiao Chen once again felt something strange today.
”Mr. Xiao is here, please get in the car, let's get out of here.” The old Wu family lives in the west of the village and leans on this carriage to support an old rice bowl. , But looks like a little old man.
Father Xiao nodded, ignoring Xiao Chen's incomprehensible look, and raised the curtain and got into it.
”Hey, haven't the days of collecting seeds been postponed? The Xiao family and his son hired Wu's carriage. What are you going to do?”
”Who knows? The Xiao family is mysterious and secretive. They don't associate with us, but the clothes they wear may tell Xiao Chen's daughter-in-law to go.”
”It's possible that Xiao Chen's child is really nice and handsome. If it weren't for the fact that his bones were too weak to look like a long life, I would like to give him my daughter.”
The carriage went out along the only street in the village, listening to the faint voices coming out of the window, Xiao Chen was shocked, shouldn't he really take him to a blind date!
”Don't think about it, cultivate your spirit, today ... You may have a chance to jump into Jackie Chan today ... Don't ask more, you will know when the time comes.” Father Xiao waved his hand, looked at Xiao Chen, his face flashed A little bit complicated.
Xiao Chen nodded, then closed his eyes and recuperated.
Father Xiao looked at his son's slightly thin face, and gradually became more firm in his eyes, muttering in his mouth: ”Today, even if I bow my head to him, what can I do, I can't delay this child forever ... 一... ”
After a sigh, the compartment was quiet again.
”Mr. Xiao, Xiao Cheng is here.” Outside the carriage, the voice of old Wu Gongjing came.
Xiao Chen, who closed his eyes, opened his eyes immediately after hearing the words, and now his father's face showed a little loss.
”Oh ... is this here yet?” Father Xiao whispered in a low voice, his face flashed a little complicated, and then he drove down the curtain.
”Lao Wu, you go back first, you don't have to wait here.” Xiao Xiao said to the old Wu gently.
”Yes.” Watching Old Wu drive the carriage far away, Xiao's father stood in front of the huge gate of Xiaocheng and looked at the huge word ”Xiaocheng”. His eyes were complicated, and he said after a long time: ” Let me go. ”Yan Yan, head to the city first.
Xiao Chen looked at his father's slightly old-fashioned back, and he didn't quite understand why he came here in person today, and the more he wondered at the thoughts of today.
After half an hour, the father and son found a humble shop and took a short break. Xiao's father instructed Xiao Chen not to go out in private, and then he hurried outward with complex steps.
Xiao Chen's brow frowned slightly, a little hesitation appeared in his eyes, then he quietly followed and went out. Today, the father's behavior is too weird, and there must be another secret in it.
Along the way, Xiao Chen followed, watching his father walk into a restaurant.
”Is my father visiting a friend this time?” Xiao Chen frowned slightly, stepped into it, glanced in the lobby on the first floor, and did not show his father, but walked directly to Yajian on the second floor. Although he was thin and pale, but had a great manner, and his clothes were not ordinary goods, the guys in the restaurant hesitated, and finally did not dare stop him.
Entering the second floor, his ears calmed down. Xiao Chen slowed down and walked slowly in the corridor, listening slightly.
”My father is here!” Xiao Chen looked at the box No. 1 in Tianzi in front of her, and was puzzled, because her family was poor, her father was always frugal, and it was strange to hire Lao Wu to drive the car today. His father's character was simply the opposite.
Xiao Chen stood at the door, glanced around the box, and then his eyes lightened slightly. An air vent is left on the side of the box near the street, so you can see the scene inside the box. He glanced across the corridor, seeing no one around, he converged and walked over, looking lamely inward.
The elegant decoration of this restaurant is elegant, a pear-wood round table, four cyan chairs, an ink landscape painting hanging on the wall, and a verdant potted plant in the corner. It is simple but full of charm.
At the moment on the cyan chair, the three middle-aged people wearing white robes sitting peacefully and sitting on their faces, with a touch of coldness on their faces, although they did not speak, but the breath naturally exuded on their bodies was unconscious. One sink, obviously the one who has been in the upper rank for a long time.
But what surprised Chen Chen the most was his father's performance at the moment. He sat opposite the three, although his complexion was a little more complicated, but under the pressure of the three, he did not show a little bit of uneasiness, and was quite free and easy.
