Walking on the snowy streets on the outskirts of Niujiao Town, the cloud scenery makes everything look friendly.
A bare peach tree covered with ice. When he was a child, he and Wang Bolin went to steal other people's peaches, but the owner of the peach tree drove them out of the fields. This era was not as rich in resources as Yunjing's previous life, and the fruits grown at home were
It is also considered very valuable and can be sold to support the family.
Back then, it wasn't just that a few friends were greedy. Except for Yunjing, the others didn't have enough money to buy fruits. They just did it for fun and excitement.
A mottled stone bridge, covered with thin snow, seems to be telling an ancient story.
In the summer when they were young, Yunjing and his friends would jump off the bridge with their buttocks naked to take a bath, not caring about the eyes of adults. Because of this, they were slapped on the palm by their husbands, but they refused to change despite repeated admonitions...
All in all, Yun Jing still had a relatively complete childhood when he came to this world. He did this deliberately and did not want to be too isolated.
But in his childhood, Niujiao Town left too many beautiful memories.
Holding a white paper umbrella, wearing a pure white scholar's uniform, and carrying a bookcase, I walked through the snowy streets under the clouds, walking on the road that I have walked countless times, recalling the past, everything in the past seemed to be just yesterday.
Niujiao Town is the birthplace of farmyard manure. As a grain source town, it is supported by the emperor and does not have to pay taxes. People's lives are much better than they were ten years ago. Although it is still not that good, people starve to death.
It has not happened again in the past two years, and people also wear warm clothes in winter, even though the clothes are full of patches.
Living an easy life is only relative.
In this era, if you are not a wealthy family, how can your life be so easy? Being able to eat well, wear warm clothes, and not freeze to death in winter and starve to death, this is the beautiful life that people imagine.
Sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, all kinds of flavors in the world, clouds and scenery have all been seen and tasted.
After being out for half a year, except for the seasonal changes, Niujiao Town is still the same as when Yunjing left. Even going forward more than ten years, compared to when Yunjing first came to Niujiao Town, nothing seems to have changed here.
The pace of this era is so slow that people cannot feel the passage of time...
"Hey, isn't this the most handsome man in Niujiao Town? I haven't seen him for a while. Where did he go?"
When passing by the mottled stone bridge, a rich middle-aged man wearing a brocade jacket and holding a heater looked at Yunjing and joked.
Yunjing came to Niujiao Town to study when he was six years old. From then on, he spent most of his years in the town. As he grew up, he gradually became the number one in Niujiao Town without knowing who to start with.
Because he is very famous in Niujiao Town, most people know Yunjing, and they often use this title to tease him.
"Uncle Zhen is out enjoying the snow. It's very elegant. I went out on a study trip a few days ago and just came back today." Yunjing bowed his hand and said with a smile.
When I first met this man, he was still a strong middle-aged man, but now he has a big belly. Time is not forgiving. The reason why we are familiar with him is because his son also studied in the town school with Yun Jing.
The other party smiled and said: "I'm not that good at elegance. What's more, it's just that I'm having trouble at home and I'm not in a good mood. I came out to relax. You don't understand what I'm telling you. Xiaoyun, you will understand when you are my age.
I'm..., I'm going on a study tour, it's not bad, I've been away from home for a while, go back quickly, so you don't have to worry about me at home, come and play at home when you have time, and let your aunt prepare delicious food for you."
Do middle-aged people have so many things at home? They actually come out to blow the cold wind...
Muttering in his heart, Yun Jing smiled and said, "Then I won't disturb Uncle Zhen. This junior will take the first step."
"Haha, go ahead, go ahead. You don't know that during your absence, the big girls and young wives in town will miss you very much." The other party nodded and said happily.
He handed over his hands and left, walking through the cloud scenery and saying, "Uncle Zhen was joking..."
After all, my hometown is wonderful, my hometown is good, my hometown is beautiful, I love the mountains and water in my hometown...
Along the way, I occasionally stopped by to say hello when I met acquaintances. Yun Jing had just returned and would definitely go home first. He had no plans to go to Wang Bolin and the others for the time being. However, after the New Year Festival, it was necessary to visit the master's wife and the teacher from the school.
This era is like this. After the New Year Festival, you have to visit relatives and friends starting from the first day of the new year, which lasts for a month. It is not like Yunjing's previous life, many people stayed at home during the New Year and so on, and there is no human touch at all.
After walking and walking, passing through the archway of Niujiao Town, Yunjing set foot on the road to Xiaoxi Village.
It's winter, the snow is thick, few people are passing by on the road, the snow is still very white, and the clouds pass by without leaving any traces on the ground. It's not that I can't bear to damage the white snow, mainly because there is no need to go deep and shallow.
It is very comfortable to walk with one foot and fly close to the ground.
Howl~!
A long cry came from the sky, and Yunjing raised his head slightly, but he saw Xiaobai, whom he hadn't seen for several months, hovering above his head. He hadn't nourished that guy with spiritual energy for several months, and its size had not changed much from when Yunjing left.
, but its body with a wingspan of seven to eight meters can be considered a giant.
Xiaobai's joyful mood could clearly be felt. Before Yunjing left, he had told him not to appear in front of others so as not to scare people, so at this moment Xiaobai was just hovering in the sky and not coming down.
Located in the outskirts of the country, there was not a single human figure in the surrounding barren mountains and ridges. The cloud scenery simply rose into the sky and went straight up to the blue clouds and landed on Xiao Bai's back.
Xiaobai seemed to be very surprised that Yunjing could actually fly. He forgot to flap his wings and almost fell down. After confirming that Yunjing could really fly, he stabilized his body and flew up and down, looking very excited.
"Xiaobai, long time no see. Please fly calmly and take me home." Yunjing patted its neck and said. I used to be able to touch its head while riding on Xiaobai's back, but now I can't. It's so big.
Too big.
Chirp, chirp... Xiaobai made a strange tone that he didn't know where he learned, and flew towards Xiaoxi Village with Yunjing.
Suddenly realizing something, Yunjing laughed dumbly and said: "I used to call you Xiaobai, but now for some reason, you have to change your name. How about calling you Xiaofei? I won't tell you the reason, anyway.
You don’t understand either.”
She calls herself Bai Zhi and also Xiaobai, and she rides 'Xiaobai'... which is weird...
"Cuckoo?" The bald eagle turned around and made a bird call again. It looked at the cloud scenery and seemed to be asking why it had to change its name.
There was no explanation, Yun Jing thought to himself: "Are you not satisfied with calling me Xiao Fei? How about calling me Xiao Yu? After all, you are covered in hair, so that's it."
"Quack...", the bald eagle didn't know whether it agreed or not, so it called and turned around.
Its speed is still very fast. Starting from the outskirts of Niujiao Town, within a few minutes, the scene of Xiaoxi Village has appeared in Yunjing's sight.
Patting its neck, Yunjing took in a ball of spiritual energy and enveloped it and said, "Okay, Xiaobai, I'm home. You go back. I'll see you again when I'm free."
With that said, Yunjing left its back and flew down into the sky. He came to the outside of the village and walked back. It would be bad if he flew directly into the village and scared the villagers. Although that was nothing, Yunjing didn't want to be ignored by the villagers.
People are treated like monsters.
The bald eagle, renamed Xiaoyu, spread its wings and flew away. Yunjing waved and walked towards home.
The closer he got to home, the faster his footsteps became, and he felt like he was about to return home.
This is the first time since childhood that he has been away from home for such a long time. He is lying if he says he doesn't miss his family. His son has traveled thousands of miles and his mother is worried. He has not only traveled thousands of miles, but also been away for half a year. I don't know how worried the family will be.
Or is it possible that the family is not worried at all, but is just chewing on the pig's trotters?
Resisting the need to use his mind to observe what his family was doing in advance, Yunjing left a series of footprints on the snow and walked towards home step by step.
On a very cold day, all the villagers stayed indoors. No adults were seen outside, only some naughty children went out to play in the snow. The whole village was full of laughter and laughter, injecting a lot of vitality into this lifeless winter.
"Ah, Jing Xiucai is back. I haven't seen him for a long time."
"Uncle, I heard that you went on a study tour. Where did you go? What is a study tour?"
"Hey, uncle is back. Please take care of second uncle. During this time, he always bullies us just because he is older than us."
"That's right, it's so abominable. If I couldn't beat him, I would have beaten him down sooner or later..."
After Yunjing entered the village, a group of children outside saw him and immediately surrounded him, talking about everything.
The corner of his mouth twitched. How can a bunch of brats talk? This is uncle? Am I that old?
Well, Yunjing has no choice but to make him the eldest in the family, and because of his seniority, he is called uncle by the younger people in the village. Uncle is not a title, but an honorific title based on seniority.
In this era where 'propriety' is extremely important, even if there are conflicts between neighbors, the seniority cannot be messed up, otherwise the older generation will step in to deal with it.
"Isn't this black charcoal? My little face is all red from the cold. I wiped my nose and all the snot fell into my mouth. Isn't it delicious? That thing is salty, little embolus. Wear new clothes. Don't spoil it.
, otherwise you will be spanked when you go back, Erya, what are you doing with them, you are a girl, you have to be quiet..."
They greeted each one one by one, touching this one and pinching that one. After that, Yunjing curiously asked: "Why did you say Yundong bullied you?"
"I'll say it first. Uncle, you don't know. My second uncle came back from vacation and he was so arrogant. He learned some martial arts. He beat us all up with his arrogance."
"Yes, yes, together we can't beat him. If you beat him hard enough, you have to avenge us."
"Well, uncle and second uncle are brothers, can you avenge us?"
When a group of children complained, Yunjing couldn't help but laugh or cry. When his feelings were gone, Yundong became the little bully of the village.
Although it is just a child's play, Yundong's domineering character must not be avoided. Otherwise, in the future, this kind of character will be determined and he may go out on the road.
Yunjing doesn’t want to go online, but there is a saying. If a child’s character is not well developed since childhood, it will be difficult to regain it when he grows up. Yunjing does not want to wipe his little brother’s butt all day long in the future. He did it to him when he was a child.
Wiping your butt is annoying enough.
"He's bullying you. I'll go back and teach him a lesson to vent your anger. Okay, it's such a cold weather. Let's go back one by one. Don't get sick. Come on, this is candy. Everyone has a share. Take it home."
After promising a blank check and taking out a handful of candies he brought back, Yunjing gave two to each of them and sent the group of children away.
The noise aroused the idea of the villagers, and they all went out to check the situation. They felt relieved when they saw that it was Yunjing, and they all greeted them warmly. They must know that there are kidnappers in this era...
After saying hello, Yun Jing had arrived outside the house before he knew it.
Feeling a sharp aura, Yun Jing didn't pay attention. It was his aunt Jiang Xiaoxi. She hadn't seen her for a while, but she was already late in life. She was always paying attention to the safety of her home. She was really thoughtful.
Keeping this friendship in mind, Yunjing looked at the door of his house and had mixed feelings for a moment.
The courtyard door is closed, and the main room door is also closed. There is the sound of reading at home. It is the immature voice of my younger sister Yun Xi. She is currently studying in a private school in the town. She obviously cherishes the opportunity to study and returns home during the holidays.
Can't let go of the scroll.
At home, there is also the sound of my grandfather weaving bamboo baskets with clinking strips. He is always busy, and there is also the sound of my mother cooking in the kitchen, the clinking of pots and pans, and the sound of my father Yunshan teaching people...
Hmm? Teach people a lesson?
Hearing the screams, it was obviously Yundong. What kind of monster did that guy do to make his father beat him until he was gasping for breath?
What is this? Beating a child in the middle of winter is just idle time?
Feeling weird, a little funny, and even more warm, Yunjing stepped forward and opened the door and said: "Dad, mother, grandpa, I'm back."
It feels so good to go home, especially when you can open the door and call your loved ones.
No matter how good you are or how miserable you are outside, as long as you are at home and your loved ones are there, you will feel at ease.
Yun Jing's voice echoed in the small courtyard, and the house suddenly became quiet, followed by hurried sounds, and with a bang, the door opened.
"Xiao Jing? It's really you. You're back. Just come back. Why didn't you say hello in advance..."
The first person to appear was Yunjing's mother, Jiang Susu. She was dressed in simple clothes and an apron. There were still some water stains on her sleeves. She was obviously busy before.
When she opened the door and saw Yun Jing, she was a little surprised, but more of a surprise, and relieved. As she spoke, she couldn't help walking towards Yun Jing, her steps were chaotic, her hands were subconsciously wiped on her apron, and her eyes were red.
When she came closer, she grabbed Yunjing's right hand with her left hand, and couldn't help patting Yunjing's shoulder and pinching his cheek with her right hand. Facing her son who was so close, she couldn't help but choked with excitement: "My son.
It’s good to be back. I’ve been out for so long and you’ve lost weight. It’s good to be back. It’s good to be back. Mom will feel relieved.”
As she said that, she couldn't help but hold Yun Jing, who was a head taller than herself, in her arms.
My mother is relieved when I come back...
This sentence made Yunjing's nose feel sore. He bent down and snuggled into his mother's warm embrace, letting his mother pat his back, just like she did when he was a child.
No matter how old I get, I will always be the child that my mother can't let go of...
"Mom, I'm back. I'm sorry, it's the child's fault that makes you worry," Yun Jing said softly. At this moment, the greatness of mother's love cannot be overcome even by the power of Xiaoyao Realm to control the world.
Sniffling, Jiang Susu let go of Yunjing, wiped her red eyes and said, "It's good to be back. You're away from home. Mom, the one I can't let go of the most is you. Come on, let's go inside. It's cold outside.
Look at you, you are such a big person, and you only wear this much in the winter. Are you cold? There is a charcoal fire at home, go and warm yourself up."
Every word and every sentence is filled with inextricable maternal love...
From the beginning to the end, Jiang Susu never let go of Yunjing's hand, nor did her eyes leave Yunjing's face.
The son is the lump of meat that fell off the mother's body. Yunjing has been away from home for more than half a year this time. Although there are letters back, this is a long trip, not a study in the town. Being a mother, she is worried about her all the time. Where is it?
A few simple words can express...
"Mom, walk slowly, the ground is slippery."
He and his mother walked towards the door of the house. Seeing his father Yunshan sighing in relief and wanting to say something but stubbornly looking to the side indifferently, Yunjing smiled and said: "Dad, I'm back."
"Come back as soon as you come back. I'll even beat the gongs and drums to let the whole village know." Yunshan curled his lips and said, then turned around and entered the house with his hands behind his back and a smile on his lips.
Father's love is different from mother's love. Father's love is silent. He is always so bad at expressing. He is obviously worried to death. He obviously wants to come over and beat his son twice to confirm whether he is good or bad, but he is unmoved even if he holds back and doesn't say anything...
"How do you behave when Xiaojing comes back? You're like someone who owes you money." Jiang Susu defended Yunjing and stared at Yunshan's back. Then she comforted Yunjing and said, "Xiaojing, your father is like this, three sticks.
If you can't beat a fart, don't be like him."
"Mom, what are you talking about? I know that dad is actually worried about me," Yun Jing said with a smile, and then said to Yun Lin who was still holding the bamboo knife: "Grandpa, my grandson is back, are you okay?"
"Okay, okay, my body is strong. My eldest grandson is back. Come into the house quickly. Grandpa will kill a chicken for you. Later, your mother will stew it for you to replenish your body. Look, you have lost weight." Yun
Shan Le laughed cheerfully, then walked towards the chicken coop with the knife.
The eldest grandson is the treasure of the whole family. Well, the second grandson and the youngest granddaughter are also treasures. Their palms and backs are full of meat. As a grandfather, you can't treat your grandson badly. Just kill the chickens. Now the family is not short of these things.
Looking at the chicken coop, Yun Jing thought that it was so pitiful that I would be beaten as soon as I came back...
"Brother, brother, you're back. You missed me so much. Do you miss me?" Yun Xi, who looked like a porcelain doll and looked like a porcelain doll, came out of the house in a flash, wearing a small flower cotton-padded jacket and two braids.
He threw himself into Yun Jing's arms and raised his head.
Slow down your shouting, Yunjing couldn't help but patted Yun Xi's little head lovingly and said: "Of course I miss my little sister, I miss her every day."
"Brother is lying. If you miss me, you haven't come to see me for so long. You must have forgotten my sister," Yun Xi pouted.
"No, I was delayed because of something. I brought you a gift, it's a good thing," Yunjing said quickly.
Yun Xi then smiled and said, "That's pretty much it. What did eldest brother bring me?"
"Let's talk about it after we enter the room. Tsk, Xiao Xi, you have lost your teeth and become ugly." Yun Jing looked at her toothless mouth and couldn't help but joked.
Yun Xi immediately covered her mouth and shook her head and said: "I haven't become ugly..." After saying that, she complained to Jiang Susu and said: "Mom, look at big brother, he bullied me as soon as he came back."
"Wait until my mother vents her anger on you. Let's go back to the house first..."
The family was enjoying themselves happily. After entering the house, Yun Jing always felt that something was missing. In a blink of an eye, he saw Yundong huddled in a corner with tears hanging down his face. He saw that he was obviously too excited to think about it, and seemed to be struggling with something.
"Xiaodong, what are you doing?" Seeing this cloud scene, he couldn't help but ask.
As soon as he mentioned this, before Yun Dong could say anything, Yun Shan's anger that had subsided because of Yun Jing's return suddenly came back up. He blew his beard and glared: "This guy is simply shaking the world. I have to beat him to death today."
As he said that, he took off his shoes and went over to beat me.
Yunjing quickly grabbed his father and asked, dumbfounded, "Dad, you have to give a reason for beating him, right? It seems you've beaten him before?"
Yun Dong shivered in a corner. Although he was now studying and learning martial arts, he still did not dare to resist the majesty of his father. Knowing that he was in the wrong, he did not dare to let out a fart. He looked at Yun Jing, Jiang Susu and others for help.
.
Jiang Susu ignored this matter, glanced at Yunjing reluctantly, and then went to the kitchen to work. When her son came back, she had to make something delicious for him.
Yunshan was pulled by Yunjing and couldn't do anything. He immediately pointed at Yundong with his shoe and said angrily: "Xiaojing, you don't know, Yundong is becoming more and more lawless. It's okay to be naughty in normal times, but this
This time was too much. He had only been back from vacation for a few days. He didn't know where he got his bad temper. He actually stole chickens from other people in the village and roasted them. How could I not beat him? Although everyone's life is better now.
, not missing that chicken, and people didn’t say anything, let alone argue with him, but in previous years, a chicken was often the hope of a family’s survival. He was stealing, that was stealing, we
The Yun family has never produced anything like this, how shameful!"
The more he talked, the more excited he became, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Yunshan blushed and became thick-necked. He picked up his shoes and started to hit Yundong again. Yunjing let go of him. As a result, Yunshan was stunned for a moment and looked at Yunjing.
Said: "Xiao Jing, why don't you pull me?"
"It's not good to steal, you do have to be beaten. Dad, please beat me hard. If you feel tired, I will beat you up," Yun Jing said thoughtfully.
Over there, Yundong was dumbfounded, looked at Yunjing and said aggrievedly: "Brother, how could you do this..."
Yunshan was carrying his shoes and had been beating him for a while, and now his anger was almost gone. Yundong was pitiful, and Yunjing didn't hold him back. He couldn't beat him for a while, but finally
He slammed his shoes on the ground and gritted his teeth and said: "My family is unlucky. Why did such a thing come out? You can say that you are greedy. It's not like we don't have anything in our family. We have to steal other people's food to make it delicious? We want to accompany other people's chickens.
, I have to come to apologize to the neighbors, hey..."
Yunshan was in a dilemma, but who would have thought that this was something his son had done.
Yun Jing looked at Yun Dong and waved expressionlessly: "Come here Xiaodong."
"I don't." He looked at Yunjing in fear and shook his head. He was too scared. In this family, Yundong was afraid of Yunjing the most. No matter how hard Yunshan beat him, he was still most afraid of Yunjing. After all, he was the most afraid of Yunjing.
It was Yunjing who brought him up since he was a child, and Yunjing has always been a good boy in other families. It was Yunjing who led this family to live the life they have today.
At this time, the calmer Yunjing became, the more frightened and uneasy he became. It was better for Yunjing to beat him than to have this expressionless face.
"It's okay if you don't come over. Let's talk like this. Dad has beaten you before, and I won't beat you. Now I ask you, if you grab other people's chickens to roast and eat them, is there anyone forcing you or being bewitched?
