Chapter 268 Grandma, Mother, I'm Back
Sun Shan picked up Xiao Guangzai. The little guy hadn’t been seen for more than a month, and he was still so small and thin, and he didn’t feel heavy at all when he held him.
Guyu quickly stopped him and said, "Shanzi, don't hug him. He's dirty. Otherwise, he'll dirty your scholar's uniform."
The not-at-all-sloppy Xiao Guangzai:................
Sun Shan looked at him with sympathy. Compared with his uncle, Xiao Guangzai was still not favored.
Sun Shan put Xiao Guangzai on the ox cart. The little guy's pouting mouth opened up again and he looked at the ox cart with bright eyes. He seldom rode on it, so it was particularly novel for him to sit on it now.
Veteran driver Zheng Hongyuan drove slowly out of the city gate.
Since there was only one ox cart, there were souvenirs bought from Zhangzhou Prefecture on the cart.
So only Sun Shan, Zheng Hongwen, Xiao Guangzi, Xiao Guangnu, and the little crybaby could sit on the ox cart.
Sun Shan was holding little Guangnu, Zheng Hongwen was holding his older nephew, the little crybaby, and little Guangzai was sitting in the middle, looking around curiously.
Grain Rain, Beginning of Summer, Sun Boming went walking.
Sun Shan and Zheng Hongwen felt embarrassed and wanted to let the two women come up and ride on the ox cart.
Guyu said very disapprovingly: "Shanzi, you and Hongwen should take the car. You are scholars and cannot walk."
Lixia also thought so: "Yes, you scholars are weak, so don't walk."
Lixia wanted to say that her younger brother was even weaker. She heard from her father that he had heatstroke when he went to Zhangzhou Prefecture. Alas, the weather is so hot now, and she must not get heatstroke.
Lixia looked at the car and saw that a sunshade had been put up. She was very satisfied.
Zheng Hongyuan, who sometimes drove the cart and sometimes pulled the cart on the road, also said, "Shanzi, Hongwen, you two should stay in the cart and don't get off the road. It's not easy for you two to walk, and it's even harder to walk in the hot weather."
He looked at Lixia with pity, but still let Shanzi and his brother take the car. Lixia was in much better health than the two scholars.
Sun Bomin was carrying a package, which contained the student's hat, clothes, hairpins, and silver awarded to Sun Shan by the government.
I was worried about leaving it on the ox cart, fearing that Xiao Guang would grab it and break it, so it was safer to carry it myself.
He said to Sun Shan and Zheng Hongwen, "You two should just sit in the car and don't get off. We are used to walking, unlike you two who study in the school."
Sun Shan and Zheng Hongwen looked at each other in silence, then looked at the child in their arms, and then looked at Xiao Guangzai who was curious about everything. They made up their minds to exercise well and not be worse than the two women, Lixia and Guyu, in terms of physical fitness.
After walking for half a day, we finally arrived at the gate of Sunjia Village in the evening.
Sun Boming carried the package, Guyu carried Xiao Guangnu on his back and pulled Xiao Guangzi.
As for Zheng Hongyuan, he drove Zheng Hongwen, Lixia and the little crybaby back to Zhengjia Village.
As for why he didn't send her to the Sun family's old house, Sun Boming explained that it was getting late. Although Zhengjia Village was very close to Sun Shan's home, he couldn't go home in the dark.
In fact, there was another meaning in his mind. When they entered the village later, if the son-in-law drove the ox cart back, he would go too fast and would miss his fellow villagers.
It would be better for me to walk slowly into the village by myself. In this way, the villagers will definitely see it. It is a big deal that there is a scholar in the mountains. I have to tell the villagers about it.
Lixia held the little crybaby in her arms, looked at the village sign of Sunjia Village reluctantly, and left a message: I will come again tomorrow.
At this time, Sun Bomin took all of Sun Shan's packages and asked Guyu to dress Sun Shan carefully, especially the student's scarf and clothes must be made neat, trying to make Sun Shan the most handsome boy in Sunjia Village.
Sun Shan silently let the two of them do what they wanted. When Xiao Guangzai impatiently started clamoring to go home, Guyu slapped him directly. Xiao Guangzai immediately pouted and looked aggrieved.
The corner of Sun Shan's mouth twitched. It seemed that the gentle elder sister had been worn down by the two children and the years, and was no longer as gentle as before.
Sun Shan was walking in front, and Sun Boming and Guyu were walking behind. They walked past the entrance of Sunjia Village and then past the big banyan tree in the village's CBD.
Sun Bomin immediately spoke up and called from a distance: "Aunt Li, come and enjoy the cool air!"
I was thinking that my Shanzi had returned, so why was there no one at the entrance of the village? I walked into the village and there was no one there either. I passed by the big banyan tree and finally saw a few women chatting.
Sun Bomin thought that if he didn't let the villagers see Shanzi anymore, they would really not be able to see him until tomorrow.
Aunt Li had sharp eyes. When she shouted, she turned around and saw Sun Bomin. Then she successfully caught Sun Shan and shouted loudly, "Hey, Mr. Sun is back. Come and see. Mr. Sun is back."
Aunt Li not only shouted, but also ran over extremely flexibly, and successfully braked the car when she was one meter away from Sun Shan. She looked at Sun Shan in surprise and said, "Sun Xiucai, you are really back? Oh, let me see Xiucai Gong, I have never seen what Xiucai Gong looks like in my life."
Sun Shan was startled by Aunt Li's loud voice, but he still smiled charmingly and said kindly, "Grandma Li, don't call me Sun Xiucai, just call me Shanzi."
As people from the same village, you must not act arrogantly, otherwise you will be drowned in saliva behind your back and be beaten by the villagers at the village entrance.
Aunt Li didn't hear what Sun Shan said at all. She just kept talking to herself and shouted, "Oh, the scholar talked to me. Oh, I'm so happy."
After hearing this, all the gossipy women around Aunt Li also rushed to talk to Sun Shan.
"Oh, the clothes that the scholar is wearing are very beautiful. Oh, I have never seen such beautiful clothes in my life."
"Hey, what did the scholar say just now? He said that his knowledge is average. Oh, how humble. He is worthy of being a scholar."
"Oh, the scholar just called me grandma, haha, the scholar is still so polite, haha. I am happy in my heart."
A group of old women were chattering non-stop, but they had no intention of listening to what Sun Shan had to say.
Sun Bomin echoed: "Oh, auntie, don't praise him too much."
"What! Even if you pass the exam to become a scholar, you are still not a member of the Sun family, so there is nothing you can say!"
"Haha, Shanzi is really ordinary. He was lucky to pass the exam and become a scholar!"
Guyu also left Xiaoguangzi and Xiaoguangnu behind and joined the gossiping conversation: "My son Shanzi, haha, grandma, you are right, he has been smart since he was young, and he seems different from other children since he was young."
Sun Shan, Xiao Guangzi and Xiao Guangnu looked at each other for several times: .........................
Sun Shan and his gang were captured by Aunt Li, and then the news spread. In less than a quarter of an hour, all the villagers near the banyan tree came out, and then all the villagers near the banyan tree also knew about it.
The village chief came running over in a hurry, saying excitedly, "Shanzi, Bomin, you are back. Oh, our Shanzi is a scholar now. We have a scholar in Sunjia Village. Shanzi has brought honor to our ancestors."
The noise and bustle were incessant, coming from here and there, slowly gathering together and becoming one noisy mass.
From a distance, Sun Shan saw Huang and Su running towards him through the crowd.
Following behind him were Xiaoman, Hanlu, Dege'er, Second Uncle Sun, Third Uncle Sun and other family members.
Sun Shan's hands were shaking, his eyes were red, and he excitedly shook off the villagers who were surrounding him, ran over, knelt on the ground, and shouted, "Grandma, Mom, I'm back."
