Yang Ruoqing and Zuo Junmo looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time.

"I haven't seen it before." Yang Ruoqing said.

Zuo Junmo added: "This is the first time I've come to say thank you, but I missed it. I'm so sorry."

Wang Xiucai thought about it and said to Yang Ruoqing and Zuo Junmo: "You two, please go to a place with me."

…

Wang Xiucai brought Yang Ruoqing and Zuo Junmo to a hanging flower gate.

Then he pointed to the hanging flower door in front of him and said: "Please, you two."

The two entered the hanging flower door, and the sight in front of them surprised both Yang Ruoqing and Zuo Junmo.

Compared with the rough stone wall and torch-style bandit cottage style in front, the courtyard in the backyard with hanging flower gate seems to have been moved here from the Jiangnan water town.

There is a screen wall at the entrance. There is a huge relief painting carved on the screen wall. At first glance, it looks like a picture of Along the River During the Qingming Festival. There are no less than a hundred people, big and small, including traffickers and foot soldiers, men, women, old and young.

Going around the screen wall, there are two long corridors with carved railings and painted buildings.

Stepping forward with your feet on it, the contact between the sole plate and the thick wooden board creates a warm and solid feeling.

The open space in the middle of the verandah is filled with bamboo, mahogany, and green bamboo, interspersed with yellow wintersweet flowers in bud.

The eyes that were slightly cloudy after drinking alcohol suddenly became brighter and brighter.

"This way, please, be careful on the steps."

Wang Xiucai, who was leading the way, reminded.

Yang Ruoqing nodded, admiring the elegant scenery, and followed Wang Xiucai inside.

After passing a small crescent-shaped artificial lake, we passed through a plum forest. The plum trees were covered with colorful lanterns, illuminating the place as if it were daytime.

Behind the merlin's shelter, three rooms stand side by side.

The white walls and blue tiles, the eaves spread like the wings of an eagle ready to fly.

"I never expected that there is such a good place to live here, elegant and tasteful..." Yang Ruoqing praised.

Suddenly, her eyes widened, "Xiaoyao...ge?"

"Brother Wang, is this the courtyard of Xiaoyao Pavilion Master?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

Wang Xiucai nodded.

"Every plant and tree here, every plum tree and bamboo, and every tile on the roof, was hand-selected and planted by our Xiaoyao Pavilion master."

"When the village owner returned to his hometown to visit relatives two years ago, he asked us to take good care of these flowers and plants. You two, please come in."

After following Wang Xiucai into the house, the furnishings in the house conveyed to Yang Ruoqing the feeling that the owner of Xiaoyao Village should be very young, and had good tutoring and good taste since childhood.

The things used seem casual, but they are understated and luxurious.

"You two, please look here." Wang Xiucai took out a picture scroll from a porcelain vase on the desk and slowly spread it flat on the desk.

Yang Ruoqing and Zuo Junmo came to the desk together, leaned down, and their eyes fell on the scroll in front of them.

On the scroll, there is a little boy, about eight or nine years old judging from his height, standing under the plum blossom tree and looking up at the plum blossoms on the branches.

Wearing a black cloak and a pair of black deerskin boots on his feet, he put his hands behind his back and held a plum blossom between his fingers.

Although it's just a sideways drawing, you can see that the child's legs are very slender and his body proportions are perfect.

The curve of his profile and facial features are both handsome and masculine. When he grows up, he will definitely be an extraordinary man!

But when Yang Ruoqing saw the child's scroll for the first time, she was shocked.

It’s like seeing a miniature version of Luo Fengtang!

She couldn't help but stretched out her trembling hand, wanting to touch the child on the scroll, but Wang Xiucai blocked her first.

"Miss Yang, just look at it, don't touch it, this is the portrait of our village leader!" Wang Xiucai said nervously.

The leader of the village is a very complicated person. Sometimes he is very childish, sometimes he is young and mature, and his thoughts are deeper than those of them.

Sometimes the village leader has thunderous tactics and is ruthless when facing his opponents, but other times, the village leader is very gentle.

Sometimes she is arrogant, sometimes she is cold, and sometimes she is funny and pretty.

When the plum blossoms first bloomed, the village owner selected a few people who had studied in the village to draw him. Finally, he selected the most satisfactory one and kept it, and no one was allowed to touch it.

"Brother Wang, what did you say? This little boy is the leader of your Xiaoyao Village?"

Zuo Junmo also asked in disbelief.

Yang Ruoqing also looked stunned.

Wang Xiucai smiled and said: "Yes, our village master is the person in the scroll. Although he seems young, our village master is not a simple person. You must not treat him like a child."

Look at him..."

Yang Ruoqing asked excitedly: "That night in Baidi Valley, could the little boy who was with you be the leader of your village?"

Wang Xiucai nodded, "That night, our village master personally took us down the mountain to the riverside to surround He Laoliu and the others. Because He Laoliu broke the rules and killed innocent women and children wantonly, our village master had long been unhappy with him!"

"Hahaha……"

Yang Ruoqing was so excited that she laughed, but she couldn't stop crying.

She took Zuo Junmo's hand and was so happy that she said incoherently: "Brother Zuo, did you hear it? It's Chen'er, it's Chen'er, it's my son!"

The moment Zuo Junmo saw the scroll, he almost knew it.

The leader of Xiaoyao Village and Brother Fengtang are almost carved out of the same mold, not only in terms of facial features, but also in temperament.

Zuo Junmo also held Yang Ruoqing's hand tightly, "That should be it!"

Here, Wang Xiucai looked at the excitement of these two people, then looked at Zuo Junmo, and said: "Excuse me, is our village leader really your son who has been separated for seven years?"

"But your son is less than seven years old, and our village leader is more than seven years old,"

"Although he refuses to say it himself, he looks like he is nine years old."

Hearing this, Yang Ruoqing raised her hand to wipe away her tears and said with a smile: "Chen'er's height should be like his father. It's not unusual for him to be taller than children of the same age."

"There is also a twin sister at home, and my daughter is half a head taller than other children of the same age!" she said.

Wang Xiucai looked at Zuo Junmo again, "However, the appearance and facial features of our village leader are not similar to those of Zuo Zhuangzhu at all. How can you be sure that he is your son just after seeing the scroll?"

Yang Ruoqing also glanced at Zuo Junmo, not knowing what to say, because Zuo Junmo himself said before that he and she were husband and wife.

Although she didn't know why he said that, she couldn't directly expose Zuo Junmo's words in front of others.

What's more, she believed in Zuo Junmo. Since he said so, he naturally had a reason to say so.

People gave up celebrating the New Year and had to accompany me to travel across mountains and rivers to find their son. This kind of kindness is not something that ordinary people can achieve.

"To be honest, Brother Wang, I am actually a sworn brother and sister. For the convenience of traveling, I just said that she is my wife, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

What surprised Yang Ruoqing was that Zuo Junmo actually took the initiative to confess to Wang Xiucai.

"On this trip, I accompanied her to find her son. Her son is my godson."

"The facial features and demeanor of the leader of the village in this scroll are exactly the same as those of my brother-in-law. I, Zuo Junmo, never make a guarantee easily, but this time, I dare to bet 10,000 taels of gold that the leader of Xiaoyao Village is Qing'er's
