Chapter 108

Yongcheng, a beautiful town with a small population, is located on the border of Xiping, but it has enviable tranquility and serenity. It was once called the paradise of Taoyuan by the former Emperor, which made countless scholars yearn for it, and also made many wandering people dream about it.

Here is the hometown of Qinchuan.

Yongcheng is quite far away from Changliang town. Normally, it takes more than ten days to gallop. It took only six days for him to arrive at his hometown, which is so far away, thanks to Qin Chuan and bu Qingyi's incessant journey, day and night. We can see how much he misses his hometown.

In the past six days and nights, bu Qingyi didn't get a good sleep, and he just nibbled a few mouthfuls of dry food on his horse. But she didn't have any complaints. When she saw that the expression on Qin Chuan's face became more and more sunny with the reduction of the rest of the road, no matter how hard it was, she was happy.

Whether it's disagreement or contradiction, she and Qin Chuan are a family who have no blood relationship but are dependent on each other. The family affection that comes from living together day and night allows them to pay the price of their lives for each other. Do they care about this?

"Are you tired all the way? When I get home, I'll ask your sister-in-law to cook some special dishes for you. I left a jar of wine when I left. Today, I'll give you half of it. "

Seeing the gate of Yongcheng from afar, Qin Chuan was in a wonderful mood, even the "sister-in-law" he never mentioned all the way.

Excited by her curiosity, bu Qingyi rode close to Qin Chuan: "when did brother Chuan and his sister-in-law get married? Before or after entering the snow pavilion? "

"I got married after I joined the cabinet, but she and I have been engaged since we were young. We are married through the belly." Qin Chuan looked straight at the gate of the city, with a rare gentle smile on his face. "When we were young, we were still stubborn and refused to be together. When I left my hometown to wander in the rivers and lakes for two years, I missed each other. Later, her parents and I passed away one after another, and the two became the only concern for each other. There was no conflict between coming and going, and they got married naturally. "

"Does the sister-in-law know who you are?" Bu Qingyi's eyes pointed to the two machetes around Qinchuan's waist.

Killers, whether they are people in the Jianghu or not, understand that this is not an identity to show off.

Qin Chuan nodded, with a deeper smile: "there is nothing to hide between me and her, and she has never complained about my identity. Every time I leave home, she will only gently protect herself. I always think that there is absolutely no other understanding woman like her in the world

"Who said no? I think I'm very understanding! " Bu Qingyi blinked with a pure face.

"You? It's kind of understanding, but do you have anything to do with women? "

“…… Oh, Hello, I'm scared to death. Can brother Chuan make fun of me? Did the sun come out of the toilet today? "

Soon to be reunited with his wife, Qin Chuan seems to be a different person. Instead of being cold and deep in the past, he has the warmth and chatter of a spoony good man.

His nagging describes a warm and happy home, where there is a gentle and virtuous wife, a pair of children who look like him and her respectively, as well as a family full of happy memories.

He also said that he had not been home for a long time, but he believed that his wife must have managed everything well at home. Just as every time he left, it was months or even years later. Even if he was wandering all over the world, and his wife could not write to him, he never had to worry about his family.

Bu Qingyi had never seen such a gentle Qinchuan before. Seeing him looking after himself and describing his family and relatives with great interest, she couldn't bear to interrupt, and even began to fantasize with him about how touching and happy it would be to meet her long lost family.

She can't help but secretly think, such happiness, she will have?

The silent steed takes them through the old city gate, through the slightly wet bluestone road after the rain, and into the alley with the fragrance of osmanthus. Qinchuan's home is close at hand.

"Brother Chuan, how long have you not been back?" Bu Qingyi suddenly remembered that she didn't ask such an important question.

Because of his eagerness to return home, Qin Chuan's tone was also a little hasty: "the last time I went home was more than two years ago, but I wrote back several times. After careful calculation, xiaohebeng and xiaohebao are seven or eight years old. I don't know if they remember me

"Why don't you remember? Brother Chuan, you are so fierce that you always leave a deep impression on others. "

As they spoke, they had already reached the door. Qin Chuan couldn't wait to jump off his horse. He rushed to the door and pushed his hand to the door.

Bu Qingyi, who was riding on the horse, followed him with his eyes. However, when his eyes touched the gate, his heart suddenly sank, and his smile gradually faded as he listened to the happiness of others.

Something's wrong.

It's fair to say that the door is tightly closed, but there are two or three layers of spider webs on the eaves. It seems that no one has been in and out of the house for a long time, and the door is too shabby, with a layer of obvious dust visible to the naked eye.

Qin Chuan's hand touched the door panel, obviously also found this point. After a little hesitation, he pushed the door open.In my memory, two tall osmanthus trees are the most prominent in the yard. I can always smell the strong osmanthus fragrance when I go home this season. Then my wife walks out of the house with a smile and walks towards him with a child in one hand.

But where are the wives and children? The two familiar osmanthus trees have long been dead, and the rotten branches and leaves are all over the ground. Some of them are just moldy and rotten, and we can no longer find the fragrant smell.

Qin Chuan's face turned pale in an instant.

Bu Qingyi quickly dismounted, followed Qin Chuan closely, and said in a low voice, "did your sister-in-law take her children to live in another place? Or to other relatives? "

"After the death of our parents, we have no more relatives. Who can she go to?" Qin Chuan shook his head slowly, and his eyes were already a little frightened.

Bu Qingyi had a bad feeling in her heart. However, she didn't want to think about it. She comforted Qin Chuan and comforted herself in her heart.

Having suffered so much, it's time to have a good time. How can there be pain and difference? There must be some reason. Qin Chuan's wife and children must live safely somewhere. They must It's going to be fine.

"I'll ask the neighbors. Maybe someone knows the whereabouts of my sister-in-law and children." Bu Qingyi turned quickly and went straight to the neighboring hospital.

The old couple next door had heard the sound and walked out of the house. Seeing Bu Qingyi walking out of Qinchuan's house, they hesitated and asked, "girl, are you looking for the Qin family?"

Bu Qingyi nodded politely and said hastily, "do you know where the wife and children of this family have gone?"

The old couple looked at each other and sighed with regret: "no, not last year."

Bu Qingyi's brain was buzzing, and suddenly it was blank.

What do you mean, no? Didn't they have a good time? How... "

Bu Qingyi half said, interrupted by Qinchuan's voice from behind: "Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang, what happened to a yuan?"

When the two old men saw Qinchuan over the step of green clothes, tears suddenly appeared in their eyes. Zhang Bo hobbled to Qin Chuan with a crutch. Without saying a word, he first swung a crutch on his shoulder.

"How are you?" he asked? You are the man of a yuan. When their orphans and widows need you, where did you go? What are you doing back now? It's late, it's late! "

Qin Chuan closed his eyes, trembled and took a breath, trying to keep calm. His voice was so low that it was frightening: "what happened to a yuan? What about the mussel and the purse? "

Aunt Zhang came forward to help the tearful Uncle Zhang, wiping his tears and sobbing: "last year, just after the first month, a yuan took a small clam and a small purse to the bazaar. Somehow, the bandits in Dayun mountain took a fancy to him and wanted to take a yuan back to the mountain. A yuan doesn't follow. The gang of murderous bandits rob xiaohebeng and xiaohebao, and let a yuan go to the mountain to find them for two children. On the same day, a yuan reported to the official, but the official said that he couldn't manage the mountain bandits, and let a yuan find a way to solve it. A yuan really has no way. She is worried that her two children will be hurt. She runs to Dayun mountain alone, regardless of our obstruction. Five or six days later, someone found a yuan's body by the side of the stream, and it has been destroyed by the disaster... "

At the end, Aunt Zhang choked so much that she could hardly make a sound, and Uncle Zhang sighed and thumped his chest and feet.

Qin Chuan's steady body shakes like a mountain. Bu Qingyi helps him to be steady. Then he feels that his palm is cold.

"Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang, ah yuan, she Did someone collect her body? " It took a long time for Qin Chuan to speak.

"Don't worry. Ah yuan usually helps the people in the town, so they gather some money to bury her behind your parents' grave." Zhang Bo wiped his tears and sighed again. "When ah yuan was alive, he always told us that her man is a knight errant in the world. You can ask him for help if you have anything. But you say, when she was in trouble, how could you not be at home, and everyone could not find you? Poor ah yuan, such a good girl... "

"Purse What about the mussel and the purse? " Qin Chuan suddenly got mad and grabbed Zhang Bo's arm.

Zhang Bo bit his teeth, with hatred between the lines: "after a yuan was killed, everyone was so angry that they gathered a group of people to go to Dayun mountain to find the gang of bandits and ask for the small clam and the small purse. The bandits said that they had thrown the two children into the river! These animals Xiaohebeng has been found and buried with her mother. Your daughter xiaohebao has not been found until now... "

At last, Qin Chuan had no response. She turned numbly and walked slowly out of the alley. Bu Qingyi quickly thanks the two old men and turns to chase Qinchuan.

Bu Qingyi didn't know what to say. She felt that any comfort was weak at this time. The only thing she could do was to accompany Qinchuan, no matter where he went.

When Qin Chuan stepped on his horse and went straight out of the city, bu Qingyi knew that he was going to make a big fight with him. This time, as killers, they would not follow their inner thoughts to set off a bloodbath.
