A tragic journey through ancient times, trying to make money

Chapter 291 Return to the Village 1

Zhang Xingyun also brought Shen Luo and his sister to the entrance of Zhangjia Village.

"Luoluo, Ming, we have arrived at the entrance of our village."

Shen Ming stood up from the carriage, walked to the curtain and lifted it.

"Brother Zhang, have we arrived at Zhangjia Village? So fast?"

"Well, you see, our village is here, and those houses are Zhangjia Village."

As Zhang Xingyun spoke, he pointed at the houses in Zhangjia Village and introduced them to the two people.

Shen Ming looked in the direction of Zhang Xingyun's finger, with envy on his face: "Brother Zhang, there are so many blue brick and tile houses in your village."

Their village is on the edge of the town. Because it is close, villagers often go to the town to buy things. There are also blue brick and tile houses in the village.

But compared with Zhangjia Village, it is totally not worth mentioning.

Zhang Xingyun pointed to another path and said, "A Ming, our home is at the end of the village, so we don't usually take the path you pointed out. That path passes through the village. We usually drive the carriage in and out of the village on this path. Go to the end of this path and you will reach my home."

After saying that, Zhang Xingyun drove the carriage directly along the small road.

Shen Ming lifted the curtain and looked outside the carriage. Shen Luo also lifted the curtain of the left window of the carriage and looked outside.

There are farmlands in the village on both sides of the path. Apart from crops, the rest of the land is planted with peppers.

Shen Ming: "Brother Zhang, your village grows so many peppers. Our village has also grown a lot of peppers in the past two years. I heard from the villagers that some of them brought them to your workshop to sell, hoping to make more money, while others were too lazy to sell them directly to people who came to buy peppers. I didn't know it before, but now I know that the peppers are finally collected by your workshop."

Zhang Xingyun smiled and said, “Well, by the way, Ming, the people who collected the peppers you mentioned should be my uncle and his family.

The workshop needs a lot of chili peppers, and we have always hoped that everyone can grow more chili peppers in addition to growing grain. Every time we come back from outside, we have to buy dried chili peppers from other counties, otherwise we can’t meet the orders from outside. ”

Shen Ming enviously said, "Brother Zhang, your workshop is amazing."

"Hey, what's so great about this? It was done by everyone in the village together. Ming, look, the house in front is my home."

Zhang Xingyun drove the carriage almost out of the path and pointed at the house in front.

Shen Ming looked at the house in front of him. It looked much better than the blue brick and tile house he had seen at the entrance of the village just now.

I didn't expect that Brother Zhang's family built such a magnificent house in the countryside.

I stared at the house in front of me, dumbfounded.

Zhang Xingyun stopped the carriage in front of the house.

"Luoluo, Ming, we're here."

After Zhang Xingyun finished speaking, Shen Ming was the first to jump off the carriage.

After standing firmly on the ground, he turned around and helped Shen Luo down.

Shen Luo and Shen Ming had previously thought that Brother Zhang's family situation was pretty good, but when they saw this house now, they never expected that their family situation was even better than they had imagined.

When Shen Luo saw this house, he suddenly felt a little timid.

Both herself and A Ming's parents have passed away. If she marries Zhang Xingyun, she won't even have a decent dowry when she enters the house. Will he be laughed at by others? If so, she would rather they not be together.

Besides, their family has such a big workshop, I am totally unworthy of him.

Given their family's financial situation, he could marry a girl from a wealthy family in the county even if he wanted to.

Why would you marry this fatherless and motherless man from your own country?

I have nothing, and I have to take care of my younger brother, A Ming. In the future, I will also be responsible for his family.

Shen Luo lowered his head unconsciously, and for the first time he felt inferior.

Zhang Xingyun saw Shen Luo lowering his head. After getting off the carriage, he looked around and said nothing. He looked a little depressed and his mood was a little bit low.

I probably guessed what Shen Luo was thinking.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xingyun walked up to Shen Luo.

He looked at Shen Luo with firm eyes.

"Luoluo, can you look up at me?"

Shen Luo, with his head lowered, heard Zhang Xingyun calling him solemnly.

Shen Luo slowly raised his lowered head and looked at Zhang Xingyun with dull eyes.

"Brother Zhang, I, I..."

"Luoluo, I know what you are thinking. What I want to tell you is that three years ago, if it weren't for Yueyue, our family's situation in the village could only be said to be not as good as the best but better than the worst.

I like you and want to spend my whole life with you because you are kind, gentle, confident and generous. My mother, my second aunt and even my grandmother who has only met you once also like you because of your character, which is the most precious thing.

Do you know? Especially every time I see you talking and laughing with others in front of the stall, I feel that you are shining at that time, and your face is full of confidence. Luoluo, you must believe that you are good and deserve many people to be good to you, such as my family and me.

And Ming is also very good. Let's take care of Ming together in the future, okay?"

It was the first time that Shen Luo heard from other people that he was fine. For a moment, his eyes turned red and a tear fell unconsciously from the corner of his eye.

Zhang Xingyun raised his hand and gently wiped away Shen Luo's tears.

After listening to Zhang Xingyun's words, Shen Luo's inferiority complex that had just arisen in his heart was suddenly cured, and his eyes returned to their previous confident look.

The corners of his lips curved as he said, "Well, Brother Zhang, thank you for what you said."

"Okay, let's go in. My mother and second aunt are next door. No one is home right now. Come on, I'll take you in first."

After saying that, Zhang Xingyun walked up the steps, pushed open the door, and led the two of them in.

The three of them sat down in the courtyard of the second entrance.

"Luoluo, Ming, these are cookies. I guarantee you have never had them before. Yesterday, Auntie and Second Aunt made them specially for you. They are delicious. You can try them too. I guarantee you won't be disappointed."

Zhang Xingyun placed the biscuits on the table in front of the two of them.

The brother and sister each took a biscuit from the oil paper containing the biscuits, put it in their mouths and started chewing.

Shen Ming was shocked by the crispness of the biscuits: "Brother Zhang, these are so delicious." After saying that, he stuffed the remaining biscuits in his hand into his mouth at once and finished them with a few crunches.

Zhang Xingyun handed him several more.

"Here, Ming, there's some more, help yourself. I made a lot at home yesterday, just to have as snacks for the next few days. Don't worry about finishing it, just make more."

Then he looked at Shen Luo: "Luoluo, how do you feel? Do you like it?"

Shen Luo nodded: "Brother Zhang, this cookie is delicious, I like it very much."

"That's good. If you two like it, eat more." He moved the biscuits wrapped in oil paper towards the two of them.
