3 min read634 words

"The third child, why are you so excited?"

Boss Xu is very calm, "If the third younger siblings are pregnant, and you

don't go back, what's the difference?"

"This is definitely different!"

Xu Lao San stared.

"Brother, don't say anything, wait for me!"

Xu Lao San stopped talking nonsense with Xu Boss, and ran wildly.

...

In just a quarter of an hour, Xu Laosan asked for a leave of absence from the

master and appeared in front of his eldest brother out of breath.

"Brother, let's go!"

Xu Lao San looked at Boss Xu enthusiastically, with a look of joy, and people

who didn't know thought he had met some extraordinary joyous event.

Boss Xu sighed and said, "Let's do it!"

Think about it when his wife was pregnant, he probably, maybe, should be like

this. It's a pity that it's been almost two years, and I only have one son.

However, in no hurry, they are still young, and the days to come will grow.

The brothers went hand in hand, quickly bought cotton and fabrics, and set off

on their way home.

When he passed the city gate, Boss Xu was surrounded by the soldiers of the

town army again, and he had a good greeting, and also gave the brothers a

lunch with meat and vegetables.

"Brother, how do you know these people?"

"Why didn't I know before?"

Xu Lao San was really surprised by the vastness of his elder brother's

contacts.

Boss Xu smiled and said, "There are so many things you don't know!"

"This, it's the last time. Didn't our father and second child pick up a wooden

box in the mountain? It's the tribute from twenty years ago..."

Boss Xu is still very good at telling stories. On the way, I listened to him

telling him about it. Originally a simple matter, I was stunned by Xu Laosan.

"This matter, our father is doing the right thing!"

When he heard that Mr. Xu didn't ask for the one hundred taels of silver

awarded by the county grandfather, Mr. Xu nodded in agreement.

Boss Xu shook his head noncommitantly, and said, "Lao San, do you think there

are still people from the previous dynasty?"

"It's hard to say!"

Although Xu Laosan can't be said to read only sage books, he doesn't know much

about the current situation.

"I think there shouldn't be much!"

"It's going to be a fun life these days, who would be foolishly thinking about

the people from the previous dynasty?"

Boss Xu said to himself, "My father is too careful!"

"Big brother, this is wrong, be careful not to make a big mistake!"

However, Xu Laosan disagrees with his elder brother's remarks, "The old saying

goes, the centipede is dead but not stiff."

"This kind of thing, I'd rather be trusted to have it, and not to be trusted

than nothing."

"If not, once something goes wrong, no matter how regretful it is, it won't

help!"

Hearing what Xu Laosan said, Mr. Xu smacked his lips and said, "That's right.

Anyway, our family's life is not bad now. There are one hundred taels, not

this one hundred taels, that's the case. !"

These days, there are really not many people who can have meat all at once.

Just relying on the current luck of their family, these hundred taels are

small fortunes.

Soon, the brothers rushed to the town.

Go straight to the old doctor Zhong's medical clinic and invite him to go with

him.

Mr. Xu helped carry the old doctor’s medicine box, while Mr. Xu carried the

cloth and cotton bought from the county seat.

Returning from Sanhe Town to Lingshui Village, Xu Lao San's joy of returning

home was quickly diminished by the results of Doctor Zhong’s pulse diagnosis

to Wang.
