Chapter 2 Chapter 62 Divergence

It's here, it's here!Within a stone's throw away, many women rushed up with their children, crying and laughing, making noise and making a mess. The car in front was still going, and saw the embankment at the entrance of the village, the car curtain was lifted, and Miss Ding walked out with a slender waist, standing tall and graceful in the car, looking at the familiar scene, with a sour nose and a pair of eyes Can't help but get wet.But there was a joyful smile on the corner of her lips.Returning from thousands of miles, the years are getting shorter and younger, and when you smile, you still have the fragrance of Ling Mei.

Before the car came to a complete stop, Ding Hao jumped out of the carriage and strode towards Mrs. Yang.This heart is at ease, how can we be at ease?If there is no comfort for the soul, it is the raving of the heartless.Alone in a foreign land, even if he is well-clothed and well-fed, his mood is extremely lonely. Only someone who cares about him can give him the warmth of home.This person is his mother Yang in this life. Son, son, my Haoer.Mrs. Yang was supported by someone, as if seeing a lost treasure, she stumbled to grab it, and two lines of tears flowed down: You child, you have grown up so much that you have never left the Ding's courtyard, why don't you tell your mother? I went to Guangyuan, I miss my mother these days, my son

Ding Hao rushed to hold her body, Yang's tears rolled down, he looked at his son up and down, showing a happy smile: It's okay, it's okay, a little thin, a little dark, but he looks strong and energetic . Seeing Yang's true feelings revealed, Niang Ding Hao's heart felt sore, and this call of mother was sincere.Mother, why are you sick? Yang's face was haggard, and because of excitement and joy, her pale face was flushed sickly. Ding Hao could tell at a glance that she was sick, and he couldn't help being surprised. Mrs. Yang is supported by Mrs. Li, the maid of the Ding residence, who is in charge of Mrs. Li. When she was young, she and Mrs. Yang were maids serving his wife, and they were very close to each other.She supported Mrs. Yang, and sighed: Xiaohao, your mother has been dragging you by herself for so many years, and she has taken care of so many things, a good person will get tired and sick.What's more, your mother has suffered from some problems since she gave birth to you, and she hasn't recuperated properly. When you had a fever and fainted last time, your mother had a panic attack.

Sister Li, don't talk about it, my son just came back, I don't know how tiring the journey is, why are you nagging him.Hao'er, mother has cooked meals for you, and is just waiting for you to come back.Let's go, let's go home. Mother, what's the matter with you, has the doctor looked at it?If not, let's ask the doctor in the city to have a look.Ding Hao became anxious. Yang smiled and said: I've seen it, I've seen it, cough, it's an old disease, it can't be cured, and it won't die, so why waste that money, mother is still saving money to marry you a wife, when you get married, you have My child, when my mother is happy, all illnesses are gone.

mother Well, let's not talk about this, go home, go home. Seeing this, Ding Hao had no choice but to stop what he wanted to say, and touched the money bag in his arms. He felt a little relieved: "Go back and hand over the few hundred coins that the eldest lady gave me to my mother. I have more money in my hand, and I will persuade my mother to go." Look sick. He supported Mrs. Yang, smiled and responded to those who greeted him with novel eyes, and walked towards the Ding family compound.At this time, Ding Tingxun had already greeted Ding Yuluo, and the siblings were greeting each other.The steward Yan Jiuyan stood there, glanced at Ding Hao's figure out of the corner of his eyes, and smiled

Ding Family Ancestral Hall. As soon as Ding Yuluo entered the village, she was taken directly to the Ding Family Ancestral Hall, where Ding Tingxun was waiting for her. Women are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall, so Ding Yuluo was surprised to see her father waiting for her in front of the ancestral hall.Ding Yuluo hurried forward to salute, Ding Tingxun looked at his daughter with a gratified smile on his face, but the smile disappeared as soon as he opened it.He turned around, walked up the steps step by step, and pushed open the gate of the ancestral hall. The heavy gate of the ancestral hall opened with a creak, and a scent of sandalwood escaped from inside.Ding Tingxun didn't stop on his feet, walked in, and then ordered lightly: "Ye'er, Yuluo, you all come in."

yes!Ding Chengye glanced at his sister in surprise, and walked in. Ding Yuluo thought he had heard it wrong, he hesitated and said: Dad, daughter Come in and offer a stick of incense to your ancestors.Ding Tingxun's voice sounded dull from the ancestral hall. yes!Ding Yuluo lifted her skirt and stepped up the steps gracefully. She would come to worship the ancestral hall every year, but this was the first time that she got so close, even entering the hall, she felt a little excited. As soon as she entered the ancestral hall, Ding Yuluo was taken aback. Her elder brother Ding Chengzong was inside.He was sitting on a rattan chair with a blanket on his legs, his face was pale and haggard, his eyes were dull, and the charm of the past was completely gone.Ding Yuluo took two quick steps, and shouted dizzily: "Brother didn't say a word, two lines of hot tears are already rolling down."

Ding Chengzong smiled gently at her, raised his index finger and shook it lightly, then pointed to his father. Ding Tingxun knelt in front of the ancestral tablet in a regular manner, holding a stick of incense, and was silently burning incense and praying.Ding Yuluo quickly wiped away his tears and stood next to his elder brother. Ding Tingxun prayed silently for a long time, put the incense into the censer, stood up and said, "Yuluo, come and offer incense." yes!Ding Yuluo took a stick of incense from the table, lit the candle, fanned out the open flame, knelt down on the futon, and burned the incense to pray.

On one side, Ding Ting said: "The ancestors are above, and the Ding family is in such a catastrophe. Fortunately, there is a beautiful girl who turns the danger into safety and protects the Ding family."Today, Ding Tingxun, the unworthy descendant, brought his son Chengzong, Chengye, and Nvyuluo to pay homage to the ancestors and pray for the ancestors to bless the Ding family with peace and smooth sailing. After Ding Tingxun finished speaking, he and Ding Chengye supported the eldest son Ding Chengzong. The father and son also solemnly bowed to the ancestral tablet three times, and then stood up one by one.

Seeing how the two sons and one daughter looked respectful to each other, Ding Tingxun sighed in relief and said, "Let's go, let's go to the conference hall to talk." Ding Chengzong was carried by two servants, and the father and son came to the clan meeting hall next to the hall. The maid offered a cup of fragrant tea, and then quietly retreated, closing the door for them. Ding Tingxun waved his hands and said, "You all sit down."Ding Yuluo and Ding Chengye quickly retreated to the chairs aside and sat down. Only then did Ding Yuluo take a closer look at his father.I haven't seen her for more than a month, and my father is obviously much older, the white hair on the sideburns is more obvious, and the wrinkles on his face are also clearly visible. Sighed quietly.

Yuluo, the correspondence between you and me is unknown, now that your elder brother and younger brother are here, please tell me what happened along the way. Yes, Daddy.Ding Yuluo owed her body, so she recounted the whole journey, especially after she arrived in Guangyuan City, she sent a letter to her father saying that the army rations had arrived. Because of the six-day delay, General Cheng was very dissatisfied, but he did not I don't mean to inquire about the crime, but as for the matter of the grain and grass franchise, after trying my best to deal with it, because the communication is too far, I haven't sent any more news, so I have to describe it in detail at this time. Ding Chengye curled his lips secretly when he heard it. He still couldn't believe that Ding Hao, a fool as stupid as a village cow, had such brains and eloquence, but he had no basis to refute his sister's words, so he just sneered with disdain. Ding Tingxun has always avoided seeing Ding Hao's mother and son, and no one dared to mention the mother and son in front of him, so he knew very little about their mother and son, so he didn't know much about Ah Hao's usual personality. The deeds were not surprising. After hearing the whole story, he closed his eyes slightly, raised his head and let out a long breath, muttering: Fortunately, God bless my Ding family! He meditated for a while, then suddenly opened his eyes, and asked: You said, it was Ding Dinghao who persuaded you to move from the straight to the straight, and encouraged the officials in Guangyuan to write a letter to expand the official warehouse, thus alleviating Cheng Fangfang's worries? Yes, the county lieutenant Zhao in Qingshui Town lost his official seal, the arresters in Huanshui Town led the prisoners into trouble, and the heavy snow blocked the roads to make sleds, all due to Ding Hao.When he arrived in Guangyuan, because he rescued the son of General Cheng Shixiong of Guangyuan by mistake, the entire Cheng family treated him very favorably. With his mediation and advice for his daughter, the daughter was able to keep the important business of our Ding family. . Ding Yuluo pursed her lips, and said solemnly: Father, thanks to Ding Hao's support, my daughter was on the way, so I gave him a position in charge.At that time, I couldn't ask my father to explain it, but now I have to ask my father to take care of it. Before Ding Tingxun could speak, Ding Chengye sneered eccentrically and said: Our Ding family appoints and removes stewards and promotes servants, when will it be the turn of the daughter's family to decide?Dad, I never heard you make such a rule!
