Chapter 48
In the evening, when they were having dinner at Yang's tavern, Lao Yangtou asked his third son Yang Yi to be called in. Originally, he wanted his wife and children to go together, but Yang Yi's wife had been ill these two days, and she had already taken the medicine and fell asleep, so he only brought the children over.
Yang Yi studied well and was a scholar. Now he was teaching in the academy in Jixing Town. He and Yang Xian both practiced boxing and kicking with Lao Yangtou when they were young. He was also a man from the countryside, so even if he was wearing a green long robe, he was easy-going and his words were a bit refined, but he didn't seem to be as weak as some teachers.
Lao Yangtou's second child was a girl and he also sent someone to call her. Yang Yujun married a butcher who sold meat in Jixing Town, and his life was good. When Yang Yi came from the west of the town, he met Yang Yujun and the butcher Qian, so they came together.
LaoYangtou and Yan Shi were getting older, so they were naturally happy to see them, let alone Shen Xuanqing, a pro-disciple, it was even rarer, so naturally more people were needed to accompany her, especially Yan Shi, so that she could show off to others that the second boy was so filial.
Shen Xuanqing brought a lot of things. Jixing Town was far away from the mountains, and mountain products were rare. Gave Yang Yi and Yang Yujun some to take back and taste, especially qiucai. There were so many they had dug, they were easy to get withered, it was better to divide them.
They were all the sons and daughters of Lao Yangtou, and Shen Xuanqing had no objection to give some to them. He also knew that there were many Yang family members, so he specially brought these here.
The chef cooked a table of special dishes, and the good wine was brought up. Everyone sat around, eating, drinking and laughing, which was extremely lively.
Lu Gu sat next to Shen Xuanqing, he spoke cautiously, most of the time he just listened to others, Shen Xuanqing picked up a dish for him from time to time, when Yan Shi saw, she knew that the second boy would be considerate to his fulang.
It was dark after the lively meal, and the group of people went to Yang Xian's house to sit and chat for a while. After drinking wine and eating meat, they became hot, so they lit lanterns and sat in the courtyard. Ni'er took her younger brother and cousin to have fun in the courtyard, adults were joking.
Yan Shi also took out the cloth that Shen Xuanqing bought for her from the box to show off to her daughter, looked at how good the cloth was, and showed the fur of the rabbits. There were so many furs, and it cost a lot just to buy them outside. The furs were brought for the old man to make a pair of shoes for him, as well as those chestnuts and hazelnuts, which they brought in baskets for the second and third families to eat.
After the excitement was over, it felt a bit awkward to be alone in the room, but Lu Gu was indeed tired, so he lay down on the bed first.
Shen Xuanqing was still talking to the old Orion in the yard, because everyone else had fallen asleep, so the shifu and apprentice were quiet.
Everything in the mountains gradually had faded away for Lao Yangtou. When he was old, he always liked to talk about the old things. When he was young, hunting in the mountains was painful and tiring, but he brought his dogs to hunt and run in the mountains and shoot the prey with his bow. This kind of pleasure was unforgettable.
His two sons both make a living in the town, and it was a pity that no one learned his hunting skills. He was already old when he took Shen Xuanqing in, and he had grown older in the past few years. It was still the same as before, when you went to the mountain, you could tell if there was something haunted at a glance, but after all, you were old, and you were no longer as brave and vigorous as you used to be.
Lao Yang was smoking a cigarette, listening to Shen Xuanqing talking about what he had encountered in the mountains and how he caught them. In the dim light, his eyes were nostalgic, as if he had seen everything in the mountains and forests in these words.
In the morning, Lu Gu woke up when he heard the movement outside. Last night, he didn't know how late Shen Xuanqing came to the room after he slept.
Ni'er got up, and just got up to see if the uncle and xiaoma from yesterday were still there, Ni’er yelled outside the door, Lu Gu was already dressed and got out of bed, he turned his head to see Shen Xuanqing sitting on the bed and put on his shoes, he quickly opened the door.
Yan Shi was busy on the kitchen to boil water and heat up the foods. Ni’er came in holding Lu Gu's hand. She looked curiously at Shen Xuanqing who stood up, and her eyes gradually moved up, even raising her head. This action made Shen Xuanqing laughed, and Lu Gu's eyes were also stained with a slight smile.
Ni'er raised her head, he was too tall for her small body, maybe she felt tired, so she turned her head and said to Lu Gu: "Xiaoma, I want to eat hazelnuts, but grandpa still didn't get up."
She dragged Lu Gu out , the bamboo basket was on the table in the main room, so Lu Gu had no choice but to go with her.
Yan Shi and LaoYang sent them out of the alley, and when they were about to send them off, Shen Xuanqing stopped them. The old man and the old lady were old, especially Yan Shi, whose legs were not as good as before. The daughter-in-law was busy in the tavern, and there were children to look after.
