When the sky was overcast, there was also a wind, which made the door panel sway and kept hitting the wall. Shen Yan pushed the stone blocking the door with her foot.

Lu Gu is counting the things in the shop. There is only one rabbit left. There are three chickens and ducks in the cage. It has been warmer recently. .

At the end, he raised his head and said to Shen Yan: "Just this order, I think it will rain later, let's just close the door and go home, there is only one teal left, go back and kill it, stew duck soup and eat it , you didn't say the old duck noodle soup was delicious that day, let's make one by ourselves."

A gust of wind came and blew the ash and **** outside into the shop. Suddenly, Shen Yan turned his back and rubbed his eyes.

After her eyes were no longer uncomfortable, she said, "Okay, I guess I won't be able to sell a few of them for a long time. It won't be too late to open the door when Brother Daqing pulls the rabbit back from the house tomorrow."

Because there were not many rabbits and chickens and ducks, Shen Yaoqing drove the mule cart back to his hometown early this morning. Lu Gu and Shen Yan looked at the shop, and he would come over tomorrow.

The old duck noodle soup was eaten at the noodle restaurant next door before. Shen Yan asked for a bowl. After eating it, he felt good, and he thought about a few words.

The rest of the rabbits, chickens and ducks were all alive, and there was nothing on the wooden rack and meat case, so they were quickly cleaned up.

The two brought back the long table in front of the door and placed it against the wall. Shen Yan went to the back to put out the fire at the bottom of the stove and the mud stove, took a broom and swept the floor, cleaned it up, and came here tomorrow to save hands.

Lu Gu was cleaning up in front. There were no people in the shop. The chickens, ducks and rabbits had to be brought back. Fortunately, there were not many left, and he could go home with the bamboo cage in a moment.

He was burying his head in wiping the knife and wiping the meat chopping board. The wind was getting stronger outside, pedestrians ran forward with their heads lowered, and cattle carts passed by the door, and the hoofs of the animals rattled.

Ling Ge'er rubbed his eyes and shouted, "Amu, my eyes hurt."

The child's weak voice was a little aggrieved. He quickly put down the work in his hand, squatted down and opened Linger's eyes to take a look. It was just a little sand that caught his eye. The child didn't know what to say, but his eyes hurt.

"It's alright. Eminem closes the door halfway. You won't be afraid of the wind when you stand behind the door panel."

After he finished speaking, he got up and went to close the door. He never thought that someone would stop his horse and stop in front of the shop. He heard the movement just now and thought it was passing by.

The good boy let out a low growl and barked twice. The dog has the habit of guarding the house. Even if there are many people in the shop to buy meat, it will bark twice as a warning, but after the person dismounts at the door, it suddenly stops. Stop, run to Shen Xuanqing's leg and whimper lowly.

Lu Gu raised his eyes and stood there, unable to move any longer.

Shen Xuanqing was at the door, tall and tall. He was a little overwhelmed with the horsewhip in his hand. He opened his mouth, paused for a while, and shouted, "Guzi."

The person in front of him has obviously lost weight, his green beard has not been shaved, there are several scars on his face that have not healed completely, his eyes are tired, and tears are gradually emerging in those star eyes.

After hearing his name again, Lu Gu realized that this was not a dream.

It was really Shen Xuanqing who came back.

As soon as he lifted his foot, he was hugged by someone who strode forward.

The tears he had endured for six months poured out instantly. He opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word. He was hugged tightly by Shen Xuanqing, and he could only cry.

The clothes on Shen Xuanqing's chest were quickly wet, and he was also crying.

The two just hugged and cried for a while, accompanied by the purring of the good boy, wagging their tails and turning around them.

The child stood beside him at a loss, his eyes were big and round, and his expression was obviously puzzled. Brother Ling was a little afraid of this sudden appearance. He was small and he usually looked at Lu Gu and Shen Yan as tall. Fear is inevitable.

"Second brother?"

Shen Yan was originally sweeping the floor in the backyard. Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed someone coming to the door of the shop. When she looked up, she looked like Shen Xuanqing. She was stunned for a while, and before she could put down the broom in her hand, she ran forward.

Hearing the voice, Lu Gu pushed Shen Xuanqing away, and then thought of the child.

"Brother Ling, come, this is Dad, why don't you recognize him?" He called Ling Jun to come over.

Ling Ge'er hesitated, followed his words and looked up at the stranger at the door.

"Come on, Daddy hugs." Shen Xuanqing said, and took a step forward, wanting to hug his son.

Unexpectedly, Brother Ling ran behind Lu Gu at once, hid and didn't even dare to look at him, and whispered fearfully, "Amu."

Children in their early two-year-olds are not very good at remembering people. Shen Xuanqing had been gone for six months, which was too long. In the first two months of his departure, Lu Gu would talk to the children about Daddy almost every day. , some escape.

"Amu is here, don't be afraid, this is Dad, didn't I tell you?" Lu Gu coaxed the child, and said, "Daddy is back and wants to hug you, not someone else."

The child was cowardly and didn't remember him anymore. Shen Xuanqing felt sour in his heart, but he did not force Brother Ling to come out.

He looked at Shen Yan, saw that his sister was also thin, and felt even more uncomfortable, and asked, "Are you and your mother okay?"

Shen Yan wiped away her tears, nodded and smiled, "It's alright."

After she finished speaking, tears fell again, and she raised her hand to wipe it with the back of her hand, but couldn't say anything else.

Lu Gu was still coaxing Brother Ling. The child grabbed his pants and hid behind him, but he didn't dare to come out. He thought about it and said, "You don't want a candy man, so let Dad buy it for you, okay?"

The little man behind him stuck his head out and looked at the opposite side timidly.

Shen Xuanqing rubbed a good boy's head and took the opportunity to say, "Let's go, Dad will buy it for you."

Brother Ling looked up at Lu Gu, and then walked over.

"Then, I'll take him to buy it first." Shen Xuanqing held his son's little hand, feeling a little better, he said to see Lu Gu.

"Go, Yanyan and I are packing up and closing the door, come back soon." Lu Gu nodded, since he said he wanted to buy it, if he didn't buy it, Brother Ling would definitely cry.

Shen Xuanqing tied the horse at the door, picked up the child and walked to the place where the candy seller was. He walked fast with long legs. He was afraid that it would rain later, and the candy seller might be closing the stall.

The good boy hadn't seen him for a few months, and ran out after him.

Lu Gu wiped away his tears, turned his head and burst into a smile, and said, "Quickly clean up, go home and make Laoya noodle soup. There are still a few eggs at home, and I fried them for him."

"Yeah." Shen Yan took the broom and walked to the backyard again. If the chicken, duck feathers and rabbit feathers were not swept away, the wind would blow today, and the yard would be full of them.

The two of them are fast, and there is not much to clean up in the shop itself, and they come here every day.

After cleaning up, Shen Xuanqing and Ling Ge'er hadn't come back yet, the candy seller was far away, and they were waiting at the door.

The jujube red horse in front of the door snorted. This horse was tall and tall, and when the two of them looked at it, they looked over. The horse's eyes were very expressive, and it looked a little tame.

Because it was a raw horse, Lu Gu didn't dare to approach rashly.

"It's really high." Shen Yan sighed.

"Your second brother is tall, but you can't be tall." Lu Gu said with a smile, his eyes were still red, but after crying, the energy was over, and he was very happy now, with a smile on his face never stopped.

"Wait, I'll go next door to buy some braised pork, and there's a small jar of wine at home." Before he finished speaking, he walked to the noodle restaurant next door.

Mrs. Zhao in the noodle restaurant knows how to braise pork, and it is cheaper to sell it to the neighbors than to outsiders.

"Auntie, do you still have the braised pork? Do you still have the pig's ears?" He asked several times as soon as he entered the door.

Mrs. Zhao was busy at first, but when she heard this, she quickly agreed to say yes.

He bought some more, and when he took the oil paper package, Mrs. Zhao asked smoothly, "Is there someone at home?"

"Well, Erqing is back, get him something good to eat." Lu Gu said with a smile, he was in a hurry to go home, and he didn't stay any longer.

Mrs. Zhao was stunned for a while, and wanted to ask a few more questions, but she saw that he had already gone out.

After a while, Mrs. Zhao heard the movement outside, and when she looked up, she really saw Shen Xuanqing walking past the door of the restaurant with Ling Geer in her arms.

Shen Xuanqing bought three big sugar figurines for Brother Ling. The child has small hands and can't hold it with one hand, so he clenched both hands.

"Sweet?" He put down the child and squatted down himself.

Ling Ge'er licked the candy man and said with a smile, "Sweet."

Xiao Naiyin heard a smile on his face and touched the child's head before getting up.

"Packed up?" he asked.

"Okay." Lu Gu and Shen Yan brought out the three cages, and then handed the ledger to Shen Yan, asking him to take it and go back to keep the accounts. He turned around and locked the door, waiting for Shen Xuanqing to hang the cages on both sides of the horse. , the three of them walked back together.

Shen Xuanqing was leading the horse. He wanted to let Brother Ling sit on it, but the child was afraid and was busy eating candy, so he gave up.

Lu Gu wrapped him the oil paper in his hand and picked up Linger himself.

"Brother isn't there?" Shen Xuanqing asked.

"Go home and pull the rabbit, come early in the morning." Lu Gu smiled, saw the scar on his face, and couldn't help asking: "Where have you been? Big brother asked many people to look for it, no matter what. No, the horses..."

A lot of people died in the cavalry.

Lu Gu's words behind him were a little unspeakable.

Shen Xuanqing sighed softly and said, "Let's go back and talk about this."

"En." Lu Gu nodded and asked, "Where's the mark?"

Luo Biao has lived in their house for a long time and is very good to the children. When he is drying Shen Xuanqing's quilt and washing clothes, he will also take out Luo Biao's clothes to wash and dry.

Shen Xuanqing said, "He won't be back until tomorrow. He's in the back. I remember you, so I'll come back first."

As it was, Lu Gu breathed a sigh of relief, for fear of hearing something bad.

Before they reached the entrance of Pearl Alley, the rain fell, and the three of them ran towards the house. When the boy saw them running, he barked excitedly. It ran much faster on four legs than people, and in the blink of an eye, it rushed into the alley. Standing at the mouth of the alley and barking, it seemed to make them go faster.

Although the raindrops were heavy, Lu Gu kept smiling and didn't feel the rain was cold at all.

The horse trotted along with the people, the chickens and ducks quacked in the upturned cage, and ran away in the rain, even Shen Yan and Shen Xuanqing laughed.

The people in the rain on the street were the only ones who kept laughing.
