Chapter 35

The carriage that stopped in front of the Chu family's door was not particularly luxurious, just an ordinary carriage. The coachman reined in the horse, got down from the carriage, and lifted the curtain. Out stepped an elderly man in his sixties, leaning on a cane, with a square face and a pair of snow-white eyebrows that extended beyond his eyebrows. After getting out of the carriage, he said to the coachman, "Young man, please wait a moment. I'll be quick."

The coachman respectfully replied, "Master Li, our young master has instructed me to follow your orders. No matter how long it takes, I will wait." He then turned around, took a wrapped package and a small cloth bag from the carriage, and said with a smile, "Master Li, this is your stuff. Don't forget to take it. I'll carry it for you!"

"Thank you, thank you!" Master Li hurriedly said.

When the carriage stopped in front of the door, it had already startled Chu Huan, who was inside the house. He came out and saw the elderly man, feeling a sense of unfamiliarity. Master Li also looked at Chu Huan with surprise, examining him up and down, and frowned, asking, "You... you are from which family?"

Chu Huan, with the memories in his mind, also examined the man for a while and finally recognized him as his maternal uncle, the elder brother of Chu Li's wife, who was now a teacher in Qingliu City.

He hurriedly stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Uncle!"

Master Li was surprised again. He had just noticed that Chu Huan's eyes and brows seemed familiar, but he hadn't thought of Chu Huan at all. After all, Chu Huan had been missing for eight years, and everyone thought he was dead. Now, hearing Chu Huan call him "Uncle," Master Li was not only surprised but also instantly thought of Chu Huan, his eyes brightening. "You... you are Er Lang?"

Chu Huan respectfully replied, "Yes, I am Er Lang!"

At this moment, Su Niang, who was inside the house, heard the commotion, saw Master Li through the window, and hurriedly informed Chu Li. She then helped Chu Li come out.

When Master Li saw Chu Li, he couldn't believe that Chu Huan was still alive. He looked at Chu Li with doubt and pointed at Chu Huan, asking, "This... this is really Er Lang?"

Chu Li, seeing her brother, was very happy and quickly said to Chu Huan, "Er Lang, have you greeted your uncle?"

Chu Huan had already bowed to Master Li, but hearing his mother's words, he knelt down again in front of Master Li and bowed respectfully. Master Li, now without any doubt, stepped forward with trembling steps, his face full of joy, and reached out to pull Chu Huan, saying, "Get up, get up... it's good that you're back, it's good that you're back. This is a sign that heaven has not abandoned the Chu family..." Tears streamed down his face, unable to control his emotions.

Since Chu Da Lang's death, the Chu family had only two women left. Master Li often worried about them. He had only one sister, Chu Li, who had married into the Chu family. With the male line of the Chu family cut off, he often sighed about his sister's hard life and would visit whenever he had time.

His family was not well-off, but as a teacher, his life was manageable. He pitied his sister's poor life and often came to help.

Today, seeing Chu Huan "come back from the dead," he was overjoyed. Knowing that the Chu family still had a male descendant, and that his sister would have someone to support her in the future, he felt a great weight lifted from his heart. He held Chu Huan's hand, unwilling to let go. Chu Li and Su Niang had to help Master Li calm down and lead him into the house to sit down.

The coachman brought the package and the small bag into the house, placed them on the table, and said with a smile, "Master Li, please sit. I'll wait outside!" Then he left.

Master Li said to Su Niang, "Su Niang, this is a package of pastries and a small bag of salt. Please take them!"

Before Su Niang could speak, Chu Li said, "Brother, you are not well-off yourself, and you have helped us a lot in the past two years..."

Chu Li didn't finish her sentence, but Master Li knew what she meant. He immediately frowned, tapped his cane on the ground twice, and said, "Su Niang, take them quickly!"

Although the old man looked frail and weak, his tone was firm, and he had a commanding presence that made it hard to disobey. Su Niang didn't dare to say more and looked at Chu Li, who nodded slightly. Su Niang then took the pastries and salt to Chu Li's room.

Master Li looked at Chu Huan, who was standing beside him, and eagerly asked about his experiences over the past few years. Chu Huan had to repeat what he had told his mother. After listening, Master Li tapped his cane and said angrily, "Truly lawless and unruly. Bandits have always been a scourge to the country and the people, and this is no exception." He then said to Chu Huan, "Er Lang, do you remember the place? Later, you can go with me to the county office, find the county magistrate, and report this matter. The county magistrate will surely send troops to raid them..."

Chu Huan's words were just a way to cope, and he couldn't find the bandits' hideout. He quickly said, "When I was captured, my eyes were blindfolded, so I don't know the way. These years, I have been deep in the mountains, working for them, but I don't know where I am. This time, I escaped at night and only wanted to get home as soon as possible. Along the way, I asked for directions, but I really don't remember where the bandits' hideout is!"

"Pity, pity!" Master Li shook his head repeatedly.

Chu Li then said, "Brother, you have lived in the city for many years and know many people. Now that Er Lang is back, can you help him find a job in the city?"

Chu Li wanted Chu Huan to find a job, but more importantly, she was worried about Feng Er Gou's revenge and hoped that Chu Huan could leave the village soon to avoid retaliation.

To be honest, Chu Huan had a lot of knowledge in his mind and far exceeded the knowledge of this era. However, he was penniless and could be considered destitute. As the saying goes, "A hero can be brought down by a single coin." Although he had many ideas, the lack of money and influence made it difficult to achieve anything. He needed a platform to succeed.

Master Li stroked his beard, nodded slightly, and agreed with Chu Li, saying, "I originally wanted Da Lang to find a job in the city, but Da Lang was a simple and honest boy, not as flexible as Er Lang. He only wanted to live off the two acres of land and didn't want to leave you alone, so he never went to the city."

At that time, Da Lang had not married Su Niang and lived with his mother. Master Li had suggested several times that Da Lang find a job in the city, but Da Lang was simple and had never left the village, and he was also afraid of leaving his mother alone, so he never agreed.

Chu Huan knew that staying in this small village would not lead to great development. His current goal was to earn enough money to ensure that his mother and Su Niang could live comfortably for the rest of their lives. To earn more money, he needed to leave the village.

"Uncle, I am strong and can do any job!" Chu Huan said with a smile. "Er Lang has been thinking about going to the city to find a job. A man of my stature will surely find work!"

Master Li stroked his beard and was very satisfied with Chu Huan's words. He said, "It's already very good that you think this way. Your father and your elder brother always stayed in this village and never dared to go out. Your courage is very rare." He paused, thought for a moment, and said, "I have lived in the city for many years and have some connections. I will start looking for a job for you when I return to the city. I believe I will have news for you within ten days."

Chu Li was moved and said, "Er Lang, thank your uncle!"

Chu Huan quickly thanked him, and Master Li waved his hand, saying, "They say that those who survive great disasters will have good fortune. Er Lang, your mother and your sister-in-law will rely on you in the future. Your father and your elder brother are gone, and the Chu family will depend on you. If you can bring honor to the family, your father and your elder brother will rest in peace."

After talking for a while, Master Li gave some more instructions and then stood up, saying, "I will start looking for a job for you when I return to the city!"

Chu Huan and his family wanted to keep Master Li for dinner, but he refused, saying that the carriage belonged to a student, who had sent it specifically to bring him to the village. He didn't want to return too late.

The old man was very stubborn, and the family couldn't persuade him to stay, so they had to let him go. They saw him off and watched him get into the carriage and leave.

...

...

The night was moonless, and the wind was cool. The entire Liu family village was quiet.

In the Feng family's large house, in Feng Er Gou's tightly closed room, a series of seductive moans occasionally echoed. On the large bed, Feng Er Gou lay, his eyes excitedly watching a white, soft body moving up and down on him. The white body's breasts bounced up and down like two rabbits racing.

Feng Er Gou was injured, but the woman was very careful. After a while, the white body collapsed on top of Feng Er Gou, and a lazy voice said, "It's so good... I was worried that your injury would prevent you from enjoying this for a long time..." Her voice was both seductive and provocative, very alluring.

Feng Er Gou, after two days of rest, felt much less pain. He was a man who couldn't resist pleasure. As soon as he felt better, he started with the woman. Now, with the woman's soft body on top of him, he still felt some strain and pain, and he whispered, "You slut, get off, you're crushing... crushing me to death...!" He raised his hand and slapped the woman's plump, white buttocks hard, leaving a red mark. The woman yelped and then laughed, saying, "You bastard, you're so ungrateful. I risked my reputation to come here and serve you, and you don't even know how to treat a woman gently..."

Feng Er Gou whispered, "Reputation? What reputation, you slut!" He then smiled strangely and said, "I've never been gentle with women. The first time I was with you, you pretended to be reluctant, but later, when I touched your breasts, you let me do whatever I wanted. You didn't say anything about treating women gently then..."

The woman was slightly annoyed, lightly slapped Feng Er Gou's chest, and said in a low, seductive voice, "You bastard, you're so ungrateful. You came to my door in the middle of the night and forced yourself on me... If you were capable, why haven't you gotten Ye Su Niang yet? You think about her every day. If you were a real man, you would sneak into her bed at night and take her..."
