How can someone travel through time and space and become a beggar?

Chapter 128

Zhao Fengling quietly touched his stomach. It was bulging. How rude! I ate too much.

Zhang Zhou and Wang Qiuyu cleaned up the dishes and washed them, while Xia Chu went to make a pot of tea to relieve the greasiness.

After sitting for a while, Wang Yong said, "Let's go. I'll take you to the government office."

"Thank you for the treat." Zhao Fengling bowed slightly. His stomach was too bloated and a little uncomfortable. This made him blush instantly. How could he have eaten so full?

The family sent Zhao Fengling out, and just as they opened the door, they found some noise outside.

"What happened outside?" Wang Yong watched for a moment. It looked like someone's servant was out looking for someone. He was wearing the same clothes and asking everyone he met. He looked at Zhao Fengling. Could he be looking for this child? Thinking of this, he walked out first. "I'll go ask. You guys wait here."

Zhang Zhou responded and pulled back Wang Qiuyu who was about to rush out.

Wang Yong went over and asked a few questions, and he found out that they were indeed looking for a young master named Zhao, who was said to be the son of the young master of their family. It was his first time going home, but the driver lost him. After asking many people, he said that he saw him coming this way, so he came to look for him.

"Is your name Zhao Fengling?" Wang Yong asked.

The servant was surprised and excited. He grabbed his arm and asked, "That's the name. Did you see it?"

"I picked him up from my home." Wang Yong nodded, "But I have to send him back myself to make sure he's safe."

"Of course, of course!" The servant nodded repeatedly, "Thank you very much. The young master doesn't recognize us, but he has seen the young master in our mansion and recognizes us."

"Let's go, I'll call someone over." Wang Yong nodded, called Zhao Fengling over and followed the servant.

When I got there, I found it was actually Zhao Huazhang's house. Zhao Huazhang was in a hurry, as if he had just rushed back from outside. "Ling'er!"

"Uncle!" Zhao Fengling went to meet him. Just as Zhao Huazhang was about to hug him, he bowed and saluted deeply, "Greetings, uncle."

Zhao Huazhang was stunned. How come he looked more and more like his eldest brother as he got older? His manners were exactly the same. "I'm glad you're back. Where were you going...Uncle Wang?"

"Hahaha, I didn't expect it to be your child, what a coincidence..." Wang Yong felt relieved and felt that it was really fate.

"I was actually run into by Uncle Wang?" Zhao Huazhang was also a little surprised. This was too much of a coincidence.

"It's all my kid's fault. Seriously, I owe you an apology." Wang Yong recounted the incident where Wang Qiuyu had rushed out onto the street and startled the horses. If it weren't for him, Zhao Fengling wouldn't have fallen off the carriage.

Zhao Huazhang saw that his nephew was safe and sound, "It's good that he's not injured."

Wang Yong nodded and said, "Then I'll go back first."

"Send Uncle Wang back." Zhao Huazhang said to the driver.

Wang Yong waved his hand and refused, "No, I'll walk back and buy some Mid-Autumn Festival gifts for the children."

Mid-Autumn Festival gift... Zhao Huazhang's mind flashed to Xia Chu's smiling face. He wanted to go home and look for a gift, but asking Uncle Wang to take it back was obviously inappropriate. He rubbed his fingertips and said, "Then Uncle Wang, take care."

"Okay." Wang Yong waved his hand and walked back slowly.

Xia Chu and others were still baking mooncakes at home. When Wang Yong came back, they found out that Zhao Fengling was actually Zhao Huazhang's nephew. They all felt that it was fate.

"Xiaochu, do you like this?" Wang Yong pulled out two wooden boxes, each containing two hairpins. One had a small flower made of pearls, with two strings of small pearl tassels adorning the bottom. The other had a string of osmanthus flowers, with small green leaves hanging from the bottom. "Pick one for yourself, and the rest will be for your mother."

"It looks good! Thank you, Dad!" Xia Chu chose the pearl one, put it on her head and shook it immediately, with a happy smile on her face.

"Then keep this for your mother." Wang Yong put it in his arms.

"Dad! Where's mine? Where's mine?" Wang Qiuyu looked into his arms expectantly.

"Young man, what gift do you want?" Wang Yong looked disdainful, but pulled out a small wooden sword from his waist. "Here."

Wang Qiuyu cheered, "Thank you, Dad!"

Wang Yong took out another book from his pocket and said, "This is for Xiao Er. This is a new seasoning from Zhenqi Ju. They say it comes from the Western Regions. This is for Xiao San."

"Thank you, Dad." Zhang Zhou and Guan Xu thanked him happily.

Wang Yong touched his little son, who was smiling innocently, and said with a gentle smile, "Be good, have a happy Mid-Autumn Festival."

It wasn't long before Xia Tian came back, reeking of alcohol, apparently having drunk a lot. However, he could hold his liquor well, and looked quite sober. Xia Chu made a cup of honey water and said, "Brother, drink it and go to sleep. Mom hasn't come back yet."

Xia Tian shook his head. "I'm not very sleepy. Is there anything else I haven't done?"

"Everything is ready. Go and rest. Mom will definitely nag you when she comes back and sees you reeking of alcohol." Xia Chu pushed him towards the room. "Go change your clothes quickly."

"I understand." Xia Tian walked back helplessly.

Xiatian had just gone to bed when Dong Xiaohuan returned. She brought some braised meat and, after washing her hands, began helping with dinner. Xiachu had grilled another bundle of meat. Wang Qiuyu, clinging to his small wooden sword, was playing a game of fighting wolves with Xiaoan.

As the sky darkened, the family gathered in perfect order. Dong Xiaohuan looked at the children lovingly and raised her glass, "It's Mid-Autumn Festival and we're reunited. I wish our family good health and happiness."

"May you be healthy and happy forever!" Everyone raised their glasses.

"Is this the crispy pork belly?" Dong Xiaohuan looked at the piece of meat Wang Yong picked up for her and wondered why it was in such a shape.

Wang Qiuyu swallowed the meat in a few gulps before saying, "It's delicious!"

Dong Xiaohuan said angrily, "You little pig, everything is delicious."

"He ate five slices by himself in the afternoon." Guan Xu said with a smile.

"Then I have to try it." Dong Xiaohuan put the meat into her mouth. It looked quite large and she thought it would be tasteless, but it was very fragrant inside. The outside was crispy and charred, while the inside was still juicy and tender and fragrant. She smiled and was about to praise it when she suddenly remembered something, "Can this meat be sold in the store?"

Xia Chu didn't think of it for a moment, but when Dong Xiaohuan reminded him, his eyes lit up, "Sure! Let's build a barbecue oven in the shop and roast meat, roast chicken, and roast duck. Business will definitely be promoted to a higher level!"

"Then let's pick a time to build a stove, and build one in my uncle's shop as well?" Zhang Zhou asked.

"Well, what about the barbecue method?" Dong Xiaohuan thought for a moment, "The shop will pay for it from you."

Xia Chu disagreed, "We are family, why should we buy it?"

"That won't do. Even brothers have to settle accounts clearly. I told you that I would give you a share of the profits from the shop, but you refused to take it. For this barbecue recipe, you can either pay me or take the share." Dong Xiaohuan said seriously.

"No way." Xia Chu shook his head desperately.

Wang Yong made the final decision, "Do as your mother says."

Wang Yong usually doesn't interrupt in matters like this; if he does, he'll make the decision. Xia Chu isn't talking; it's good to have the money.
