Chapter 681
When Xiao Zhen walked out from the surrounding villagers, it was already half an hour later.
As soon as she walked out of the crowd, Xiao Zhen saw her aunt and uncle arriving here at some point. They were looking at her happily with tears in their eyes.
Xiao Zhen took three steps and took one step at a time, stepped forward and hugged the two of them.
Uncle Xiao was stunned for a moment, with a slightly embarrassed look on his face. It seemed that Ah Zhen had never shown such emotion since he was a child. He could feel the excitement of Ah Zhen hugging him, and couldn't help but get slightly wet in his eyes.
Aunt Xiao was already choked with sobs.
After hugging, the three of them separated. Aunt Xiao wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes: "Azhen, why did you come back suddenly? And it's with Ziran?" Xiao Zhen looked at Han Ziran, who was still being pulled by the village chief to talk, and said with a smile.
: "Because I miss my uncle and aunt." Suppressing the sadness that suddenly emerged in his heart, Xiao Zhen felt something as he looked at his aunt, who was standing in front of him with a ruddy complexion and good health, and his uncle who was full of energy.
The urge to cry loudly.
"Why are your eyes still red? She is already the Prime Minister's wife." Uncle Xiao naturally didn't know what Xiao Zhen was thinking at this time, so he joked.
"Uncle, aunt, how have you been these past few years?"
"Okay, okay. How can it be bad? Ziran doesn't know how much he takes care of us." Aunt Xiao said happily.
Xiao Zhen was stunned for a moment: "Zi Ran takes care of you?"
"Yes," Uncle Xiao said with an honest smile: "Every year, he sends us a lot of money, and he also asks people to repair the house, and there are also a lot of delicious food."
"When the farming was busy, I even asked people to come and help." Aunt Xiao thought about her life in the past few years and was so happy that she said, "Ah Zhen, you really married the right man."
At this time, Han Ziran also came over and met his uncle and aunt.
"Aunt, have you gained weight again?" Han Ziran looked at Aunt Xiao with a smile and said, "Didn't the doctor tell you not to eat too much?"
"How can I do this? If I don't eat two bowls of rice, I will feel very hungry."
"Ziran, let's go, let's talk," Uncle Xiao pulled Han Ziran and walked towards home.
Xiao Zhen looked puzzled as Han Ziran and his uncle and aunt got along like a family. When did this start? Why didn't she know?
"Zi Ran is such a nice person." Aunt Xiao took Xiao Zhen's hand and linked it with hers: "I used to be really worried that you wouldn't be able to find a husband, but I didn't expect that the husband you found is better than anyone else.
.”
Xiao Zhen looked at her aunt's movements and couldn't help but remember that her aunt always said that her behavior was not womanly. Other girls always liked to walk arm in arm and go shopping, but she only liked to walk alone, so she would pull her hand every time.
Put your hand in her arm.
"Auntie," Xiao Zhen leaned his head on his aunt's shoulder and said dullly, "I miss you." Xiao Zhen was really happy. How could she not be happy when she saw her aunt alive and well. However, everything in the virtual realm
It was all too real, so real that even now she still felt lost.
"Uncle and I miss you too," Aunt Xiao gently patted Xiao Zhen's face.
The family has changed drastically.
Xiao Zhen saw that the original shabby mud house had now turned into three wooden houses, and even two large and small gardens. The changes were so great that she almost couldn't recognize them.
"Mom, what's going on? The gong in the village is so loud. What happened?" A man helped the pregnant woman out. When he saw Xiao Zhen and Han Ziran standing in the yard,
He was stunned for a moment, then said happily: "Azhen?"
"Brother?" Xiao Zhen looked at his brother Xiao Feng striding over. One step away, the dignified man's eyes turned red, tears fluttering down his face. The next moment, he knelt down in front of Xiao Zhen.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Xiao Zhen and Han Ziran hurriedly helped Xiao Feng up.
Xiao Feng couldn't get up and choked up: "I owe Ah really too much, too much." Over the years, guilt has been weighing on his heart, and no matter how many words of gratitude he said, he could not express it.
"Isn't it nice of me? It's true, brother, we are brothers and sisters, why are we talking about this?" Xiao Zhen helped her brother up and served as a soldier for him. She did it willingly without any complaints.
Xiao Feng was still crying bitterly, but Xiao Zhen's eyes had already fallen on the woman who had just been helped out by her brother: "Sister-in-law?" She had an impression of this sister-in-law. She came here when she got married to Ziran.
Xiao Ling's Osmanthus hurriedly came to Xiao Zhen and bowed.
"Sister-in-law, please get up quickly." Xiao Zhen quickly helped her up, looked at her surprisingly big belly, and said happily: "Looking at sister-in-law's belly, she should be giving birth soon, right?"
"No way," Aunt Xiao wiped the tears from her eyes and said with a smile, "She's only six months old. She's pregnant with twins, so she looks like she's about to give birth."
"Twins?" Xiao Zhen didn't expect his sister-in-law to be able to lift two birds with one stone. He smiled at Xiao Feng and said, "Brother, my sister wants to congratulate you."
When talking about his wife and the twins in her belly, Xiao Feng calmed down and smiled.
That night, the Xiao family was so crowded that even the county magistrate came in a hurry.
Han Ziran didn't have much time to stay at Xiao's house, and Xiao Zhen was invited by the county lady from time to time to have drinks and enjoy flowers.
After the entertainment, five or six days had passed. When Xiao Zhen began to get along peacefully with his family, Han Ziran handled several cases in Sheng County.
One month passed quickly.
Although it was only a month, too many things happened.
Han Ziran was worried about again, and the person who was worried about him was the magistrate's niece. However, later, Ziran found out that the magistrate was corrupt and perverted the law, and that the magistrate's wife, as the daughter of a salt merchant, monopolized the salt market to make huge profits.
He took off his black gauze hat.
The county magistrate's wife did not give up and actually ordered someone to come and kidnap the Xiao family in revenge. The result can be imagined.
What was supposed to be a one-month trip turned into three months.
During the past three months, Han Ziran concentrated on dealing with political affairs, but Xiao Zhen enjoyed his leisure time. He went hunting in the mountains as usual and cooked cumin meat for his sister-in-law.
On the day he returned to the capital, Xiao Zhen's depression caused by Zhu Youshu had almost disappeared.
Seeing his wife's hearty laughter from time to time, Han Ziran looked at her with more and more gentle eyes, so when they returned to Beijing, the two of them also walked back slowly enjoying the scenery along the way.
As soon as Han Ziran stepped into the capital, he was called into the palace by the emperor.
When Situ in the capital saw Xiao Zhen coming back, he kept looking at her swollen belly in ecstasy. He had to lament the passage of time. When he left, Xiao Zhen couldn't tell that she was pregnant. When she came back, her belly was already five.
It's been months.
Bai Xiang and Bei Mi reported to Xiao Zhen the information about the investigation of the Shi clan wizards, but there was obviously no unnecessary information.
Just as Xiao Zhen was frowning and thinking, Aunt Su walked in, followed by a child carrying a small ax and a small vegetable basket. His sleeves were rolled up to his arms, his trousers were rolled up to his thighs, and his feet were covered in mud.
Who is not Little Ax?
"Mom?" As soon as he saw Xiao Lingdian, Xiao Ax dropped the small vegetable basket and ran over happily.
"Madam is back?" Nanny Su said happily when she saw Xiao Zhen.
Aunt Cui came out of the house and hurriedly picked up the little ax that was running towards her: "Young Master, Madam is pregnant with your favorite little sister now. You will scare her if you run over like this."
Little Ax bent his head and looked at his mother who was looking at him dumbfounded. His childish face was full of worry: "Mom, did I scare my little sister?"
Xiao Zhen couldn't help but laugh when he saw his son dressed up like this. He bent his head and asked, looking so cute, and smiled: "No."
Little Axe breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked with disappointment: "Mom, are you unable to hug me in the future?"
"How could it be?" Xiao Zhen said, taking the ax from Aunt Cui's hand, tapping his nose lightly, and said: "As long as you want my mother to hug you, my mother can hug you at any time."
Aunt Cui was waiting carefully beside her, fearing that the young master might kick his wife.
"Really?" Little Axe's eyes lit up: "Does Mom like Little Axe?"
"Of course I do. You are my mother's child. How could you not like it?" Xiao Zhen was a little surprised as to why his son suddenly asked such a question.
Upon hearing Xiao Zhen's words, Little Axe's little face turned red with excitement.
Seeing his son's happy expression, Xiao Zhen reflected on whether he had spent too little time with his child before. After thinking about it, he said: "Mother is sometimes busy, and sometimes she is too busy to take care of you, but that doesn't mean she doesn't care."
You." He said and kissed his forehead.
