Chapter 1258 Back home

But the two of them have high status, so it wouldn't be good for one of them to live in the main house while the other lives in their small house, right?

Doesn't this create a rift?

No one in the family thought of moving Zhou Guo out. She was a girl occupying such a big main room, which was already big and she didn't live there all the time.

The old man nodded secretly, thinking it was a good thing that his young disciple had not been wronged.

Zhou Gu got the news and arrived home in the evening eight days later, braving the wind and snow.

Then, on the evening of the third day, someone came to report that the two masters' carriages were already ten miles away.

The whole family stood up together, "We're back, we're finally back!"

"Come on, Mom, let's go pick up Dad and Uncle!" Zhou Suli pulled Li Lai and ran away. He hadn't seen Zhou Dacai for so many years. In fact, to be honest, he even forgot what Zhou Dacai looked like. He only remembered that he loved to laugh and was very kind to him and his sister.

Zhou Mai and others followed closely behind, saying, "Dad, that's it."

Then Zhou Gu held his son and his wife, Xu held Xiaohua, and Li touched her head and face, looked at her reflection in the water tank, exhaled, and said to the old man beside her: "Sir, you have made an indelible contribution to our Zhou family. Without you, our Zhou family would not be what it is today. Sir, please stay at home and wait for us to welcome back Guoguo's father and uncle, and let them come to pay their respects to you."

The old man stood up and said, "No, no, I haven't done anything in these years. Although I accepted Zhou Guo, I only taught her some kung fu. The Zhou family can be what it is now, all thanks to her, Da Cang, and you, and it has nothing to do with me. I am still lucky. If it weren't for my good disciple, I am afraid I would never be able to live the good life I have now."

Then he walked out, "Why should we bother with all this as a family? I'll go with you to pick it up."

After so many years, it's not easy to find these two people again.

From then on, he had someone he could talk to at home, and he didn't have to go out to talk to someone every day. How nice it was.

Li smiled and followed him out. Although she had not held out any hope over the years that the child's father was still alive, it was a great joyous event if they really came back.

The villagers saw the family walking towards the village entrance in the heavy snow and asked curiously, "What are they doing? Is Guoguo back?"

Li smiled and said, "No, it's my husband and his uncle. They are back. They sent a letter saying they will be home soon. We went to pick them up. It's their first time back and they can't find their way home."

The villagers were all surprised when they heard this. The news that the Zhou brothers were still alive had spread in the village before, but they didn't expect that the two would be home so soon.

Those who are curious will follow him out and take a look to see who these two people are and how they could give birth to a child like Zhou Guo. They wonder if the father is particularly powerful.

Those who love gossip ran to the village and said when they passed by a house, "Hey, did you know that Zhou Guo's dead father and uncle were still alive some time ago? Look, they are back and at the entrance of the village. The Zhou family has taken them there. Let's go and take a look."

Word spread quickly, and soon after the Zhou family arrived at the village entrance, the whole village knew that the brothers Zhou Dafu and Zhou Dacai had returned.

Wang Fugui and his group received the news and hurried to the village entrance.

When the carriage entered the village, Xiaoshu pointed to the entrance and said, "My two lords, the entrance is just ahead... Oh, there are so many people. Madam and the others are here to pick us up."

Hearing this, the two brothers stretched their necks and looked around in the crowd, but because they were too far away, they could only see a small dot and could not see anything at all.

The two men couldn't sit still any longer, so they simply got out of the carriage, sat on the edge of it, and stared at the entrance of the village where their family members were.

"Here they come, look at that carriage, with so many people on it, it must be him!"

"Oh, it's true. The Zhou family is so lucky that they were able to find the lost person. God really blessed us!"

Zhou Su was lost before, but Zhou Guo and Zhou Dacang went out to look for him and found him. These two old people were lost for so many years, and finally they found him themselves. No one would believe this.

The Zhou family members stared at the carriage. Unlike the others, no one spoke.

Zhou Guo and Zhou Dacang both wrote to me, so it definitely couldn't be fake, it must be real. They have been burning paper money for their father during festivals for so many years, but in the end, both of them are still alive.

As the carriage gradually approached, the Zhou family members also moved forward step by step, wanting to see what it was.

The two brothers in the car stretched their necks further and further, and were so excited that they could hardly stand. They had been waiting for so many years, and now they were finally home. They didn't know if the children would still recognize them.

Closer, closer...

The people on this end and the other end were looking at each other from a distance, and their faces gradually became clearer as the road got closer. That was the person I had been thinking about day and night, the person I hoped to see in my dreams.

Before the people came close, the eyes of the two groups gradually turned red.

From Li to Zhou Suli, everyone's throat was choked and they were unable to speak.

The crowd watching the excitement were originally noisy, but after seeing this scene, they gradually quieted down.

When they were only ten steps away, the carriage stopped, and the two brothers got out and walked towards their family step by step.

The two of them didn't know who to look at. The children had grown up, and their mother had changed too. Although she was a little older, she was prettier, and her whole aura was unrecognizable.

Zhou Dafu looked at the children, then at his wife, and saw that she was standing there in a daze and didn't even look at him. He sighed in his heart. He couldn't blame her entirely for Xiao Taozi's death. Why couldn't she get over it? She had tortured herself into this state. She not only had Xiao Taozi, but also two sons and a daughter.

The two groups approached, everyone's eyes were red. Li held Zhou Dacai's weathered hand, tears falling from her eyes.

Zhou Dafu looked at Zhou Gu, who had already had children and grown up, with red eyes. He patted his shoulder, touched the head of the calm Zhou Mi, and then looked at Xu.

Xu looked at him blankly, her eyebrows moved, and she was a little moved, but still said nothing.

Zhou Dafu, a grown man, had red eyes and was speechless.

Zhou Su and the others couldn't even call him dad.

The Zhou family members didn't say anything, and the villagers present didn't dare to speak either.

Wang Fugui and his group were reluctant to speak, for fear of ruining the atmosphere.

They originally thought that the scene of the Zhou family recognizing their relatives would be very sensational, but in the end, no one said a word, and the children did not even call him dad. They just looked at each other with tears in their eyes.

Even so, it seemed very touching. Some people wiped away their tears and felt that this was too difficult. After so many years, they could still get it back.

After a long while, Li sniffed and said softly, "It's windy and snowy outside, let's go back, we have everything at home."

"Hey!" Zhou Dacai responded loudly.

The sound was so loud that it scared the fat boy who was sleeping, and then he started crying loudly.
