Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert. Chapter 199

Chapter 199 An unexpected reunion

 The streets in the small town are very clean, and the houses stand side by side in order.

 The streets in the back are occupied by residential buildings, and in front there is a commercial street separated from the academy by only one road. There are restaurants, bookstores, cloth shops, grocery stores, teahouses, snack shops, etc., all kinds of things.

Jiayin was lying behind her brother. She wanted to eat snacks and buy a small wooden sculpture. She was as excited as a little mouse falling into a rice vat.

Dongmei wanted to pay with silver, but Jiahuan stopped her and said with a naive smile, "Aunt Mei, when I went out, grandma gave me some change."

Jiayin didn't ask for anything valuable, so just three or five cents made her smile.

After wandering like this for half an hour, before Li Laosi and the others came out, Jiayin wanted to come down and have a rest.

There happened to be a food shop in the west part of the shopping street, and the sign said Dumplings and Wontons.

Jia Huan led her sister in and ordered three bowls of wontons.

The boss was sitting at the counter, drowsy. When he heard the noise, he got up quickly and went to make wontons and boil water.

Jiayin pretended to be naughty and played around in the house. When she saw a layer of dust on the table in the corner and a broken chair leg that was not repaired, she knew better.

Sure enough, when the wontons were served, Dongmei and Jia Huan frowned.

It's not that they have become picky because they are used to Tao Hongying's cooking, it's just that the wontons are just too ordinary.

Jiayin put down the spoon after only tasting one piece, refusing to grudge his stomach.

She secretly lay next to her brother's ear and whispered a few words.

Jia Huan hesitated, but still asked the boss, "Boss, is your shop rented or owned by yourself? Do you need to cash in?"

The boss's eyes lit up at that time, "I rented this shop, but it's too remote. No one comes to eat, so I really regret it. Are you asking this because you want to redeem it? That's great! You can't sell food here, but It would definitely be good to set up a calligraphy and painting shop and sell groceries.”

Jia Huan smiled innocently and replied, "My family owns a grocery store. My brother came to study, so I was wondering if he could open a store too and take care of me."

"Yes, yes, this is the best." The boss became even more excited, "Most of the shops on our street are like this. The young master at home is studying in the college, and the steward will open a shop here and take care of it."

Having said that, he looked at Jia Huan and saw that he was wearing ordinary clothes and he was not very old. He was a little disappointed and lost the interest in conversation.

Jiayin stretched out his little hand and waved at the right time, and the golden bell jingled. The boss was stunned for a moment, but immediately regained his enthusiasm.

"My shop has been rented for three years for one hundred taels of silver, but it has only been open for three months. There are two years and nine months left. If your family rents it, give me eighty taels!"

The boss gritted his teeth and looked very hurt, "Eighty taels is a good deal. I have suffered a huge loss. I really can't go any lower."

Jia Huan, of course, cannot make the decision, and replied vaguely, "I will go back and discuss it with my family. If my family agrees, I will come back to the boss to discuss it carefully."

The boss was disappointed, but still said: "Okay, little brother, you must come early. I will let the news out tomorrow, I am afraid that many people will come to rent. When you come, it may not be available."

 If it had been in the past, Jia Huan might have believed it.

But the Hot Spring Valley has been open for so long, and he has watched and listened more, and he is no longer the silly boy he was before.

 So, he didn't say much, paid for the wontons, and left with his sister.

At this time, Li Laosi and Jiayi finally came out, both with excitement on their faces.

Li Laosi said, "The scenery in the academy is so beautiful, and the gentleman is so kind, we couldn't help but wander around for a while."

Seeing that it was getting late and Jiahuan and Dongmei had finished eating again, Jiayi ran to buy a dozen meat buns and simply divided them into portions. Everyone ate while walking home.

Jiayin took a bun and took one bite after another. It tasted delicious. Thinking of the shop just now, it felt right. This place is nearly fifty miles away from home. My eldest brother is here alone. If something happens, his family won't know.

If you can open a restaurant, not only will your family have a lot of income, but you can also take care of your eldest brother nearby.

As for the candidates, they are ready. Brother Jiahuan is very talented and likes to cook. He will definitely be qualified to be a chef.

 Send the three uncles and three aunts to help, and it will be perfect.

The more she thought about it, the happier she became. She started giggling while chewing the buns, which made everyone curious, but they couldn't help but laugh too.

Over at the Hot Spring Valley, Li Laoer finally waited until Wang Yuanwai. He hid behind him, handed the registration errand to Sister Liu, and then ran home to report the news.

Mrs. Li and Mr. Li Laosan both rushed to the valley. Tao Hongying pointed inside and whispered: "The eldest brother only brought a five or six-year-old boy and a middle-aged couple and servants in. The one who lives on the left is An Jiaxi, the second wooden house on the side, has already led them to the Tanshui side, I don't know if they can see it.”

 She didn't finish her sentence, but everyone understood.

Mrs. Li had been looking forward to it for so many years, but when it was finally time to recognize each other, her legs were a little weak. She helped her daughter-in-law sit down, and then kicked Mr. Li away.

　　"It's better for your second brother to go over there. You go and have a look. Jia'an Jia likes to be frizzy, just in case you don't see it right."

Li Laosan quickly agreed and went. Tao Hongying was afraid that the old lady would faint, so she brought a basket of wild vegetables over.

“Mom, help me pick it out, mix it for a while, and make it as a gift for lunch. We don't think it's surprising, but these guests from the city actually like to eat it.”

Mrs. Li understood her daughter-in-law's kindness, picked up a wild vegetable, and slowly peeled off the dead leaves.

But her eyes couldn't help but keep looking into the valley, often tearing off the young leaves.

Time went so slowly that an hour seemed like a year, and I don't know how long I had been waiting for it. Li Laosan finally brought his family to settle down and was happy.

Li Laosan had red eyes, nodded heavily, and said with a choked voice, "Mom, the birthmark is correct, that's your eldest brother, that's my eldest brother!"

Mrs. Li was stunned for a moment, and then she burst into tears, "This unfilial thing still knows how to show up. I've been waiting for so many years, just afraid that he would do something bad outside. I'll burn paper for your father so that he can see him." Son, just give me a dream, but your father doesn't give me a dream either, woohoo!”

The Li family all wiped away tears. Even at home on weekdays, the old lady couldn't even hear his eldest brother's name. She seemed to be filled with hatred, but in fact she was thinking about him too much and was hurt too deeply!

How can a mother not care about her son and feel sorry for her son?

“Mom, are we going to meet my eldest brother?” Li Laosan rubbed his hands, a little anxious.

“Go and ask Doctor Zhang to see your eldest brother first.” Old Mrs. Li wiped her tears, “Your eldest brother injured his head and doesn't recognize us, so we can't recognize each other even if we want to.”

Everyone nodded, and Li Laosan was about to rush back to the village, but when he pushed the door open, he was so shocked that he quickly backed away.

 “Mom, big brother. Big brother is here!”

 “What?” Everyone was surprised and happy, not knowing what to do.

Old Mrs. Li couldn't bear it anymore, staggered, pushed the door open and rushed out.

Wang Yuanwai was originally enjoying his son's bathing in the hot springs, so he went to Taniguchi to find out how he could get a miracle doctor.

As he approached, an old lady rushed out of the room and almost fell in front of him.

He subconsciously gave him a hand and wanted to speak, but he saw the old lady looking at him with tears streaming down her face.

His heart felt as if he had been cut hard by a knife, and his head hurt so much it felt like it was going to explode!

The third update is here, please give Huahua a five-star praise and remind you to update! Love you~~
