Chapter 109 Return to the Village
It was a summer day in July, early morning
Linjia Village is dotted with farmhouses and is lush and green. A jujube tree is covered with red ribbons, and a shrine next to it is emitting wisps of green smoke.
It seems that someone came to burn incense in the morning.
Lin Wanxing looked at the familiar place from above and felt a warm feeling in his heart.
He floated over to the jujube tree and patted it.
How is Sister Zaoshu?
As soon as she finished speaking, a big red fruit fell down.
Lin Wanxing smiled. This was specially reserved for her!
"Thank you!"
Lin Wanxing had a jade bottle in his hand, and he put a drop of spiritual essence on his middle finger and flicked it to the jujube tree.
It disappeared in an instant, and the leaves on the tree were rustling.
Made Lin Wanxing laugh!
She is now a Nascent Soul cultivator and can feel all living things.
He patted the tree and said, "Okay, I'm going home first!"
When she stood at the door of her house, she saw the old lady staggering towards the door with a basket in her hand. There were a lot of scraps of cloth in the basket.
"Grandma, I'm back!"
A ethereal and clear voice suddenly rang in Mrs. Lin's ears.
I looked up and saw, oh, whose child is this? She is so beautiful, like a fairy from the sky.
It's just that he's dressed weirdly, like a young man!
"Ah, who are you looking for, immortal?" the old lady asked hesitantly.
Lin Wanxing suddenly felt funny and sad and said with a smile: "I'm looking for you!"
"Because I'm your granddaughter, Evening Star!"
This smile dazzled Old Mrs. Lin.
The basket in his hand suddenly fell to the ground.
"Oh my, Wanxing, you look familiar to me. You are finally back!"
"Little girl, you're so beautiful that I couldn't recognize you. It's so great that I can still see you! Wait a minute, I'll make you something delicious!" The old lady was so excited that she spoke incoherently.
I don’t know what to do with her!
"Yes, yes, after you left, the emperor gave you the title of county lady, your father also got married, your brother went to the capital, and your sister married in the city, and she is even a scholar! She is very handsome!"
Old Mrs. Lin instantly became a hundred times more energetic and chattered on and on about the trivial matters at home.
Lin Wanxing said: Grandma, don’t worry, I will go and pick up my sister so that our family can reunite!
"Okay, that's fine. You sisters haven't seen each other for many years. It's time to get together!"
"She lives in the last alley behind Quanhai Tea House on East Street. It's the second house."
"My grandson, you are so beautiful, like a fairy descended from heaven. Why don't you cover your face before you go out? What if you get bullied?"
The old lady held Lin Wanxing tightly and was unwilling to let go.
"Grandma, no one can bully me! I'll be back soon!"
As soon as Lin Wanxing finished speaking, he disappeared in a flash.
Old Mrs. Lin was stunned for a long time before she reacted and murmured.
"I am really confused. This child might be a fairy from heaven. He must be very powerful!"
Then he patted his head and said, "Hurry up and shout, 'Second Brother's family, come quickly, Fatty, go to the village to buy mutton and chicken, and then ask who in the village has fresh vegetables and bring them back."
"And let's go to Old He's and buy two big melons!"
Lin Wanxing arrived at the county town in the blink of an eye. He looked around as he walked and then entered a clothing store.
The woman in the store stared at Lin Wanxing blankly: "What does this handsome young man need to buy?"
Lin Wanxing looked at the woman who was staring at him without blinking and found it funny.
When he came out again, he was a different person. He was wearing a soft-winged gauze hat, which was a black hat from the early Tang Dynasty, a white cross-collared and narrow-sleeved robe with colorful brocade, a red cowhide belt inlaid with jade, and black boots.
Soon, a handsome man with a bamboo-like figure, fair cheeks, a delicate nose and phoenix eyes appeared in front of everyone.
Coupled with her long eyelashes, cherry lips, and the way she smiled, everyone in the store was stunned.
Lin Wanxing put in 21 taels of silver and went out. When she just walked out, the customer who came into the store finally reacted and asked the owner hurriedly, "Who is this young man from? Why have I never seen him before?"
The woman who asked the question looked at the female shopkeeper with a blushing face.
The female shopkeeper was stunned and said: "This is also the first time I have seen such a slender and beautiful young man!
After saying this, he sighed regretfully, and really forgot to ask where this young man came from.
The woman opposite immediately looked annoyed.
If I had known earlier, I should have followed and taken a look!
Lin Wanxing looked at the sign outside the pole, which had the word "Tea" written on it, and thought about buying two cans of the best Heshan tea.
When he saw the wine shop next door, he was filled with the aroma of wine. Lin Wanxing sniffed and couldn't help but walked in.
Looking at the dazzling array of wine labels, he was immediately overjoyed and said with a smile, "Old man, you have a complete range of wines here."
The old man was lazy in the morning, swaying in a rocking chair, and hummed listlessly: "What kind of wine do you want?"
He opened his eyes slightly, and suddenly felt that the person in front of him was shining, like a god. His eyes suddenly widened and he stood up from the chair.
"Well, what kind of wine does this young man like to drink?" the old man asked with a smile.
My new pear wine, snake wine, and pine leaf wine are all hard to come by.
"Plum wine, pear wine, pine needle wine, rehmannia wine...osmanthus wine, give me two cans of each!" Lin Wanxing pointed with his fingers, indicating a total of more than 10 varieties of wine.
The old man nodded his head like a chick pecking at rice.
"Oh, oh, okay, wait a moment, sir, I'll get it for you right away!"
Lin Wanxing looked at the wine and became greedy again, and couldn't help licking his lips!
The old man smiled and said, "I didn't realize that you are such a good drinker. I'll pour you a glass to try. You wait a moment while you drink it!"
Lin Wanxing suddenly smiled like a flower.
"Thank you very much, old man."
Lin Wanxing sipped the pear wine comfortably, watching people coming and going outside the gate and the fireworks!
In the distance, a group of men were passing by here, two of them were holding a colorful rooster each.
"Hook, hook..." said the young man holding the chicken, listening to the loud crowing of the rooster.
"How about it? Listen to this sound. My king is so powerful. Look at its momentum. It can make countless chickens surrender in an instant."
This person was showing off as he spoke.
The other one was not to be outdone and said, "Haven't you heard that a barking dog is not fierce, and a silent dog is cruel? I, a chicken, disdain such tricks. Let's see who wins in the competition!"
Lin Wanxing watched with interest and raised his eyebrows.
Why is cockfighting so popular nowadays?
When the old man heard this, he sighed and shook his head.
"You don't know, little brother. Cockfighting has become popular in the past two years. It's chickens fighting, but actually it's people fighting. The eyes of two people fighting turn red, like black-eyed chickens. Some people even lose their fortunes to gambling. They even give up their homes!"
Lin Wanxing raised her eyebrows after hearing this. It seemed that she had stayed in the mountains for too long and a lot of changes had taken place outside.
Looking at the pile of wine cans on the ground, he raised his head and asked, "There are so many bottles of wine. Do you want me to ask someone to deliver them to you?"
How much silver is this, old man? Lin Wanxing answered the question irrelevantly.
Uh, the total is 51 taels and 6 cents. My brother bought a lot, so you don’t need the cents!
If you like, come to my place often to have a drink and chat.
Lin Wanxing paid the money and said: Father-in-law, do you know Mr. Wen’s home?
"Oh, I know. He lives in the back street."
"Does the father-in-law know about his family's situation?"
Lin Wanxing couldn't help but frown after listening to the old man's brief account.
He waved his sleeves and bowed to say goodbye.
The father-in-law took two deep breaths and finally calmed down. His face suddenly smiled as bright as a chrysanthemum.
"This is a method used by the immortals! My old man finally saw it and bought my wine, hahahaha"
The old man's crazy laughter scared the owner of the tea shop next door.
He hurried out and said, "I am talking to you, old Cao, you are drunk and mad so early in the morning!"
Lin Wanxing looked at the mottled black wooden door, thought for a moment, turned around, and walked to the back of the yard.
