Chapter 34 Bite the bullet and return home in glory

 When Zhou Mo returned to his hometown, Yan Zhi, the governor of Brazil, who had learned the news in advance, together with the county magistrate, the county governor, various Cao officials, the Langzhong county magistrate, and other important officials in the city, personally greeted him at the city gate, which greatly impressed Zhou Mo.

Face.

The news of Zhou Mo's return also spread like wildfire among the Zhou clan. Some good people beat gongs and drums, walked through the streets, and shouted loudly: General Zhou Lang of the Tiger Guard is back, everyone come out and have a look.

Take a look!

The men, women, and children in the clan had long heard that such a handsome prodigy had appeared in the clan. After hearing the news, they also wanted to have a glimpse of his style, so they gathered at the city gate to watch.

Zhou Mo took the lead and led several cavalry to follow him, walking at the front.

Behind is the heavy carriage that Lang Xing is riding in. Windows are opened on both sides of the carriage to protect privacy. Finally, there are several carriages and a few followers on foot.

A large group of people entered the city. The prefect led the officials to clear the way and greeted them on the road.

On both sides of the road behind him, there were countless people who came to join in the fun, especially some women, who stood on tiptoe and looked at each other, just to catch a glimpse of Zhou Lang's style.

After dismounting from his horse, Zhou Mo met with Governor Yan. Zhou Mo saw that there were only officials in the welcoming team, but his uncle Zhou Qun did not come. It seemed that he really had some opinions about him.

After exchanging greetings with Prefect Yan, Zhou Mo said: "My mother is still waiting at home, so I apologize for the inconvenience of staying with her for a long time. I am really sorry. I will wait until the things at home are finished before I go to the Prefect Yan's house to bother me."

Yan Zhi smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. General Zhou misses his loving mother and his eagerness is beyond words. He is really a filial son and admirable!"

"Prefect Yan has given me a great reward. Mo is really not worthy of the name of a filial son. Please take my leave first!" Zhou Mo said modestly, but in his heart he rolled his eyes, thinking, I didn't even notify my mother when I married my wife.

As we all know, you still dare to wear the hat of a filial son on me. You are really as thick-skinned as me.

I also thought, this officialdom is like a vanity fair. When you are in the prime of your career, everything that smells bad will be blown into incense for you, and everything that is black will be made white for you. When you are ruined, these same people will come to add insult to injury.

You put on the hat, take the blame, and then step on ten thousand feet.

People's hearts are unpredictable. No matter what others say, you must be able to distinguish right from wrong in your own heart.

Zhou Mo mounted his horse and led the team to the Zhou family's old house. A large group of people beat gongs and drums and followed on both sides of the motorcade to see them off.

Langxing felt that it was lively outside, so he lifted the curtains of the car window and stuck his head out to take a look. When people saw Zhou Lang's wife, she was so beautiful. Everyone who saw it, regardless of gender, their eyes lit up and they were amazed.<

/p>

Lang Xing grew up in Nanzhong and was praised for growing up, but she didn't feel shy at all. She greeted everyone with a smile and waved and interacted with the common people in a graceful manner.

It doesn't matter if you smile or wave, it makes everyone want to take a second look and push forward. With this crowding, order immediately becomes chaotic.

Thanks to the prefect Yan who sent people to escort and maintain order, a stampede was not caused.

And the beauty of Zhou Lang's wife spread throughout Langzhong County instantly.

After walking through several streets and alleys, I finally returned to my old house and entered the old courtyard. As soon as the door was closed, the whole world finally became quiet.

Looking at the place where he grew up, Zhou Mo felt familiar and familiar, but also a little strange. Why was the lively courtyard so deserted today?

The old servant at home came forward and said to Zhou Mo: "Master, I'm here to greet your luggage and horses. You go to the main room to see the old lady. Since I heard that you were coming back today, the old lady closed the door and no one could see her.

I was not allowed in, so I was crying alone in the room."

"Alas." Zhou Mo sighed. The thing that worried him the most finally came. Even though he was very cunning, he was helpless when it came to this kind of thing.

Although his affection for his aunt is not as deep as that of his biological mother, her aunt has no children, so she really treats Zhou Mo as her own, caring about her, and is no different from his own son.

I won’t talk about all the past events before time travel. I will just say that Zhou Mo was the head of the village in Guandukou. His aunt sent people to send money and things every three days. She was afraid that Zhou Mo would suffer in the army. Otherwise, where would Zhou Mo get the money?

Hire a large group of migrant workers?

Zhou Mo is not a white-eyed wolf. He knows that his biological mother is not his biological mother, but she is better than her biological mother. He also knows that he should not marry her without telling her.

When he regarded the feudal marriage system as nothing with the thinking of a modern young man and acted recklessly, he forgot that he broke the heart of a person who should not be hurt.

You talk about her feudal thoughts, and she thinks you are deviant, which is completely unclear. However, when you look down on the thoughts of ancient people with modern values ​​​​and develop an inexplicable sense of superiority, this in itself is a problem.

Such arrogance.

Zhou Mo had already figured out the connection, so he realized he was wrong and knocked on the door, but no one responded.

He put his ear to the door and vaguely heard his mother's cry inside, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

She is just an ordinary woman, a poor widow who regards her son as everything in her life.

She shouldn't have been treated like this.

Zhou Mo felt guilty, so he bent his knees, knelt at the door, and said loudly: "Mom, my son is back. I am unfilial and have done something wrong. I will kneel down to apologize to you."

There was no response from the room, only vague sounds, and the sobbing became more intense.

"Mom, if you don't open the door, I will keep kneeling. If you don't open the door today, I will kneel until tomorrow. If you don't open the door tomorrow, I will kneel until the day after tomorrow."

There is still no response in the house.

Zhou Mo stopped talking and just kept kneeling.

After kneeling for a while, a person suddenly approached him. Zhou Mo turned around and saw that it was Lang Xing.

"Why are you here?" Zhou Mo whispered.

Lang Xing didn't say anything and knelt down directly.

"You're pregnant and the ground is cold. Get up quickly, do you hear me?" Zhou Mo frowned.

Lang Xing said softly: "I'm not that squeamish yet, don't worry about me."

"I'm a man, I do things for myself, I don't need you to accompany me, just get up."

"Things started because of me. You are my husband. If you kneel down, I will kneel down. If you get up, I will get up."

"You, a southern barbarian woman, are so disobedient to me. What kind of behavior is this? If I had known that I was marrying a Han woman, she would not dare to go west if I told her to go east. That's what I call husband singing and my wife following me."

"Huh, whatever you say. Anyway, I will kneel here with you today."

"Hey, can't you please please do it for your husband? Get up quickly."

Lang Xing curled his lips, knelt down obediently, and stopped talking.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't convince her, so Zhou Mo had no choice but to give up.

There was a wind blowing, and Zhou Mo felt a little cold, so he called a servant over and said: "Go and get Madam a brocade robe to put on her, and then get a futon and put it under Madam's knees."

Langxing put on his brocade robe, but threw the futon aside, saying nothing and refusing to put it on, and just knelt on the cold stone ground.

The two of them knelt like this until night.

Zhou Mo, who was already tired from the journey, felt so dazed that he started to take a nap, his head moving bit by bit, as if he was in a high school class.

Suddenly, he felt Lang Xing leaning towards him. He thought she was going to talk to him, so he opened his eyes, only to see Lang Xing's cheeks were red, her eyes were distracted, and she actually fainted directly in his arms.
