Chapter 162 Father and Daughter Recognize Each Other! Zhao's Difficulties!
"Mom, have you ever met Dr. Xia?"
Zhao Feng turned his head and looked at his mother and asked.
"know."
Mrs. Zhao nodded, waves rising in her eyes.
"Doctor Xia, the head of the medical family, my mother can be regarded as a disciple of Dr. Xia." Mrs. Zhao endured the panic in her heart and said calmly.
"No wonder my medical skills are so good. It turns out that I learned from Dr. Xia."
"Then Doctor Xia really found the right place this time." Zhao Feng said with a smile.
"Feng boy."
At this time!
A figure walked quickly. When he saw Zhao Feng, he immediately shouted with a smile.
Hear this!
Zhao Feng's eyes also showed joy: "Grandpa Wu."
"I haven't seen you in four years."
"I just came back and haven't had time to see you yet."
Zhao Feng naturally attached great importance to Wu Lizheng, because he had been taken care of by Wu Lizheng in the past. If it weren't for him, his family would have no land to farm, and it would be impossible for his mother to take care of his brother and sister alone.
"It's good to be back."
"Seriously."
"When you went to the battlefield, I was really worried that something would happen to you. Now you are back and you have become a general."
"I'm happy for you too." Wu Lizheng said with a smile.
For him, he naturally regards the Zhao Feng brother and sister as his grandchildren.
"Grandpa Wu, Zhao Feng will never forget your great kindness to our family." Zhao Feng said in a very firm tone.
Seeing Zhao Feng like this, Wu Lizheng smiled happily, but then said: "I heard that you are back. There are many villagers outside the house who want to see you, and they want to express their gratitude to you."
"Why are you grateful to me?" Zhao Feng looked confused.
"elder brother."
"We have all distributed your title fields to the villagers for farming, and the rent is a symbolic fee. Because of you, the villagers have become rich." Zhao Ying said with a smile.
Hear this!
Zhao Feng smiled and nodded: "These are all small things, there is no need to be like this."
"It may be a small thing to you, but it is a great favor to the villagers."
"Go meet them." Wu Lizheng said.
"Okay." Zhao Feng nodded, then turned to Xia Wuji and said, "Mom, make some arrangements for Doctor Xia. I'll go meet the folks first."
Zhao nodded slightly.
"Ying'er, take us back to the room first."
"I think Mom and Dr. Xia seem to have something to say."
Wang Yan smiled, held the hands of the two little guys, and then said to Zhao Ying.
Although she left the army, Wang Yan was still observant. She just saw that her mother-in-law had a strange expression after seeing Xia Wuqie.
It seems like there is something hidden.
In order to give the two of them a chance to be alone, Wang Yan simply moved Zhao Ying away.
certainly.
Wang Yan could also feel that her mother-in-law and Xia Wuqie seemed to really know each other.
Thinking of her mother-in-law's medical skills, maybe her mother-in-law would really be Xia Wuji's disciple, and even if she wasn't, it would still be relevant.
"sister in law."
"Follow me."
Zhao Ying also happily led her sister-in-law into the house.
here.
Only Zhao and Xia Wuqie were left looking at each other.
After going on for quite a while.
Mrs. Zhao sighed: "Come with me."
Xia Wuji said nothing and followed Zhao quietly.
soon.
The father and daughter arrived at the original thatched house and small courtyard of the Zhao Mansion.
Although a mansion was built, the Zhao family has always lived in this thatched house.
After there are no outsiders.
Mrs. Zhao knelt directly towards Xia Wuji.
"father."
"My daughter is unfilial."
Zhao said with tears in her eyes.
See this.
Xia Wuji hurriedly stepped forward and helped Zhao up.
"Dong'er."
"What did you say?"
"You are not unfilial, it is your father who failed to protect you."
"It's all because of dad."
"If dad could have protected you back then, nothing would have happened."
"You've suffered over the years."
"Dad, I'm sorry for you."
Xia Wuqi also looked at his daughter with tears streaming down his face, and immediately hugged her tightly and helped her up.
"father."
"My daughter has not been around to serve her for twenty-one years. My daughter is unfilial."
"Even if she knew her father was in Xianyang, my daughter would not dare to visit him. This is even more unfilial."
"daughter……"
Speaking of which.
Mrs. Zhao couldn't help it, and tears flowed down.
Father and daughter have a lot to say to each other.
But Xia Wuqi also understood all the reasons.
He also saw with his own eyes the darkness under those powerful people, and he knew even more clearly that if his daughter had not been hiding here, she would not be alive, and it would be impossible for his grandson to grow up so big.
"Zhao Feng and Zhao Ying are the king's children, right?" Xia Wuji asked tentatively.
After so many years, Xia Wuqi still wanted to be sure.
Although the time is right, the age is also right.
But when Zhao Feng became a general, his details had been thoroughly investigated by Heibingtai, and there were no problems.
His father was a former Changping veteran who had died fighting for his country long ago, and Zhao Feng's mother was an ordinary Shacun woman.
"yes."
Zhao nodded: "I was already pregnant when I fled to the sand dunes."
"Then why is there no trace of you in Zhao Feng's information? Didn't his father die in Handan?"
"The king knows all these, and he has no doubts."
"Even if the information doesn't match, the king will see it." Xia Wuqie said in surprise.
"Thanks to Wu Lizheng of Sha Village."
"When I fled to Sha Village, he took me in."
"As for the one who died in Handan, it was the son of one of his apprentices." Zhao explained.
"But aren't the people in this village strange?"
"Shouldn't it be?" Xia Wuqie was even more puzzled.
This village originally had only a few hundred people. How could they not recognize each other?
"Maybe what happened at the beginning was God's chance for our family of three to survive."
"After Wu Lizheng's apprentice's son went to the battlefield, his apprentice's daughter-in-law left the village and never came back, and there was no news."
"I just took her identity."
"And Zhao Feng's father also recorded his apprentice's son."
"It just so happens that his real name is Zhao." Zhao replied.
"So that's it."
Xia Wuqie suddenly realized.
With his understanding of his daughter, he knew that he would not look for someone else.
But he could also think of how hard his daughter had been through these years.
"Dong'er."
"If Dad hadn't found you, would you not have gone to Xianyang?" Xia Wuqie asked.
"Dad."
"You know."
"Although so many years have passed, once I go, Feng'er and Ying'er will be in danger."
"Those people will do anything for the kingship."
"I don't want to, I really don't want them to step into danger."
"Even though Feng'er is now a high-ranking official, he can't avoid it. Once it really comes to that, those people will be crazy to kill Feng'er."
"I don't want anything in this life, as long as Feng'er and Ying'er can live in peace."
"Besides, Feng'er is not bad now, he is a high-ranking official, which is enough." Zhao said with a smile.
Xia Wuqie's old face was tangled: "Don't you miss Zheng'er? Don't you really want to see him?"
"Dad has been looking for you these years, but Zheng'er has also been looking for you like crazy. After Zhao was destroyed, Zheng'er went to Handan to find you because he thought you would be in Handan."
"For you, he hasn't even appointed a queen until now." Xia Wuqie said with some reluctance.
Obviously.
He wanted his daughter to see Ying Zheng.
At least let Ying Zheng fulfill his wish.
"Dad, you know him, and I know him better."
"Once he knows I'm here, he will come here regardless of everything, and he will recognize Feng'er and the others at all costs."
"At that time, Feng'er will become the target of public criticism."
"Although Feng'er now has great power, and Brother Zheng has truly controlled the Qin State, those big families and those clans will do anything for that position."
"I don't want Feng'er to get into trouble."
"As long as Feng'er and Ying'er can live peacefully, I'll be fine even if I die." Zhao said very firmly.
Seeing his daughter's attitude, Xia Wuqi nodded helplessly.
And at this moment.
Outside the mansion.
Even in the dark, a large group of people gathered outside the mansion.
All of them are from Sha Village. In addition to the villagers that Zhao Feng was familiar with, there are also many outsiders.
At this moment, most people come with a mind of watching the excitement.
"Zhao Feng is out."
"Zhao boy, you finally came out."
"Our Sha Village has really made a difference with Zhao boy."
"Zhao boy, I'm Uncle Li from your next door, do you still remember me?"
"Zhao Feng... I'm Aunt Zhao..."
The villagers who were once familiar with Zhao Feng shouted one after another.
These were all Zhao Feng's elders, and they had taken good care of Zhao Feng's family.
Of course.
There were also many people who were once indifferent who were shouting, as if they wanted to establish a relationship with Zhao Feng.
For these, Zhao Feng naturally nodded in response.
"Fellow villagers."
"I haven't been home for four years."
"Since the villagers are here today."
"Then I, Zhao Feng, will announce a piece of news."
"Three days later, I, Zhao Feng, will hold a banquet in my mansion. It will be regarded as my wedding banquet with my wife. First, I will give an explanation to my mother, and second, I will thank the villagers for their care for my Zhao family."
"Three days later, all the villagers in Sha Village can come to the banquet." Zhao Feng said loudly.
"The general is generous."
"I will definitely come to the banquet."
"Thank you, general..."
In the crowd, voices of thanks and flattery are endless.
This is the change brought about by power.
Once a person has power, he will be surrounded by good people, and now Zhao Feng is surrounded by good people because no one dares to offend him.
As a general, a powerful official in the court, holding military power, who dares to offend him?
"Grandpa Wu."
"I'll have to trouble you to take my guards to buy the things needed for the banquet." Zhao Feng turned his head and looked at Wu Lizheng and said.
"Don't worry."
"I will definitely make it beautiful for you." Wu Lizheng said with a smile.
"General."
"I can help."
"We can go to the county city to buy the things we need for the banquet. The county city has the most complete things." Yan Bing said very respectfully.
"Thank you, County Governor Yan." Zhao Feng said with a smile.
"General, you are too polite. It is my honor."
"I wonder if I will be honored to attend the banquet in three days?" Yan Bing asked tentatively.
"Governor Yan has taken great care of my mother and sister these years. I should be grateful."
"Of course this banquet is indispensable for Governor Yan." Zhao Feng said with a smile.
Hear this.
Yan Bing looked excited: "Yes, yes, thank you, General."
Finished explaining.
Zhao Feng also waved goodbye to the villagers and then returned to his mansion.
"Where is Mom and Dr. Xia?"
Once back.
I didn’t see my mother or Dr. Xia either.
"General."
"The old lady and Doctor Xia went to the small room."
A maid said respectfully.
Hear the words.
Zhao Feng nodded and walked towards the original small house.
Although he had been away for four years, how could Zhao Feng forget the location of his original home? It was the place where he had lived for sixteen years.
Not a moment.
He saw three thatched houses in the distance. When he returned home, Zhao Feng felt excited when he saw them again.
But after seeing the palaces stretching everywhere beside this small house.
Zhao Feng also felt a feeling in his heart: "Things have changed and people have changed."
“I didn’t expect so much change in four years.”
This time!
Zhao Feng also saw Xia Wuji and Zhao sitting in the yard.
After such a long time, the two of them also regained their composure, and Zhao was making tea for Xia Wuji.
"It seems that Dr. Xia really knows my mother."
Zhao Feng walked over slowly and said with a smile.
"Yes, we do know each other." Xia Wuji smiled slightly.
"Feng'er."
"Doctor Xia is considered your master."
"In the past, when I first started studying medicine, I learned medical skills from Doctor Xia." Zhao said with a very calm expression.
"So, Dr. Xia actually didn't admit his mistake. The bracelet really belonged to his old friend." Zhao Feng looked like he suddenly realized.
Mrs. Zhao nodded and said with a smile: "Of course Dr. Xia had seen this bracelet before."
"It seems like this is really fate."
"If Doctor Xia hadn't taken Yan'er's pulse, he wouldn't have known that my mother was an old friend." Zhao Feng smiled with emotion.
"It is indeed fate."
To this.
Xia Wuqie nodded heavily.
I thought to myself: "If I hadn't seen this bracelet, maybe I would never have come to this sand dune in my life, let alone see Dong'er."
"By the way, mother, have you arranged a place for Doctor Xia?" Zhao Feng asked.
"Don't worry, mother has already told you and everything has been sorted out."
"If you have anything to do, go ahead and do your work. Don't pay attention to us." Mrs. Zhao waved her hand to Zhao Feng.
"All right."
"Mom, please reminisce about the past."
To this.
Zhao Feng smiled, turned around and left without any doubt.
Zhao Feng was undoubtedly very happy to return to his hometown.
Take a rest today and talk about it tomorrow.
Back to the room!
"Where are the two little guys?"
Zhao Feng asked in surprise when he saw that there were no two little guys, Zhao Qi and Zhao Ling, in the room.
"They are pestering their aunt." Wang Yan smiled slightly.
"Just right." Zhao Feng nodded.
"Husband."
"Do you think there's something wrong with Doctor Xia's expression when he saw the Queen today?" Wang Yan asked in a somewhat strange tone.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Feng asked in surprise.
"I can't tell. I feel like they are hiding something." Wang Yan said with a strong feeling.
Zhao Feng smiled and shook his head: "You are overthinking this. Dr. Xia does know my mother. My mother just said that he once studied medicine under Dr. Xia. This bracelet was originally used by Dr. Xia." Saw it too."
"I see."
Wang Yan nodded suddenly, but she still felt a little weird in her heart. After all, when Xia Wuji and her mother-in-law looked at each other before, they always felt that they were not just old friends.
"Okay, don't think about it too much."
"It's been a long journey these days, so it's better to go to bed first."
"I haven't slept at home for a long time." Zhao Feng laughed and went to bed directly with Wang Yan in his arms.
…
The night passed.
The original small house.
For four years, the family sat together and had breakfast.
And this meal was made by Zhao herself for Zhao Feng.
"It's been four years since I've eaten the cakes made by my mother. I really miss it."
Zhao Feng bit into the cake and said with a smile.
"If you miss me, eat more." Ms. Zhao said very distressedly.
"elder brother."
"How much sleep has the king given you this time?" Zhao Ying asked.
"One month." Zhao Feng replied.
"It's only been a month?" Zhao Ying was a little disappointed.
"What do you mean it's only been a month?"
"This has been a very long time."
"Now your brother is a general, but the camp has not been set up yet. After Xiu Mu, I will go back to Xianyang to discuss the formation of the camp with the king."
"The establishment of a large camp is a matter of national importance."
"This matter cannot be delayed any longer." Zhao Feng explained.
He naturally wanted to stay at home as long as possible, but the King of Qin valued him so much. Although he would have thoughts about the end of Qin in the future, now that the King of Qin was still alive and he valued him so much, Zhao Feng would naturally do his best to treat him.
Moreover, with the formation of the camp, the luck official seal belonging to the general can also be condensed, which will also enhance Zhao Feng's strength to a certain extent.
"I don't know why the camp doesn't agree."
"I only know that you have been away for four years, and you have only been away for a month after finally coming back."
"This king is really too stingy." Zhao Ying pouted and said very dissatisfied.
In front of outsiders, Zhao Ying is an elegant girl, but in front of her brother and mother, she is a naughty little girl.
"You can just talk about this at home, but don't say it outside. I will arrest you and spank you when the time comes." Zhao Feng threatened his sister.
"I'm not afraid."
"Unless this king is really that stingy." Zhao Ying snorted.
"Speak of it."
"Little sister."
Zhao Feng suddenly looked at Zhao Ying with a smile.
"What?" Zhao Ying looked at Zhao Feng suspiciously, always feeling that her brother was holding something back.
"You are already twenty, and you are already a grown-up girl. Do you want me to find a man to marry you off?" Zhao Feng suddenly teased.
"You dare."
"I won't marry."
Zhao Ying immediately became serious.
certainly.
In a strict sense, Zhao Feng could indeed find a marriage for her.
After all, they no longer have a father, because an elder brother is like a father, and Zhao Feng is now the head of the family.
You can totally make the decision for her.
"You are twenty years old."
"If you're not married yet, do you really want to be an old girl?"
Zhao Feng was still a little worried when he mentioned this.
After all, women in this era start getting married when they are thirteen or fourteen years old. Although I am very enlightened, this era is not enlightened. Is it possible that my sister will really not marry in the future?
"Anyway, I'm not getting married now."
"I haven't met any good ones."
"Let's talk about it later when we meet." Zhao Ying said firmly.
"You stay at home all day long, where can you find the chance?"
"You can take it." Zhao Feng said angrily.
"How can you be sure about such a thing as fate?"
"Didn't you and sister-in-law meet by chance?" Zhao Ying said very rationally.
Mention this.
Zhao Feng couldn't help but laugh: "Do you also want to join the army? Find one in the army?"
"Hmph." Zhao Ying snorted proudly.
"Husband, let Ying'er leave this matter alone."
"She is your sister. As long as she goes to Xianyang, she can choose from any number of talents. Who dares to treat Ying'er poorly?" Wang Yan spoke for Zhao Ying.
Now she is the eldest sister-in-law, and she comes from a wealthy family, so she naturally has a certain aura.
"Sister-in-law is the best." Zhao Ying immediately hugged Wang Yan's arm and acted coquettishly.
"Feng'er."
"You said you were going to have a wedding banquet, but are you ready?" Ms. Zhao asked with concern.
After giving birth to a pair of children, she was most concerned about their marriage.
Now, although Zhao Feng has done it once in Xianyang, he still has to do it again in Shacun.
"Speak of it."
"When he was in Xianyang, the king even acted as an elder for my husband."
…
