He was dressed in rags and empty-handed, and only the bronze dagger handed to him by his elder brother when he left home. Returning home at this moment was an extremely heavy thing for Dao Zhi.

The sun sets, the heavy snow that just fell last night has not melted, and the wind has gradually become heavier. Looking at the sky is gloomy, there is probably another snow tonight.

This path outside the house, which used to be able to reach the end in just a few steps, is as long as ten thousand miles today.

There was smoke rising from the cooking stove. From a distance, you could smell the burning smell of firewood and the steaming smell of rice in the cauldron.

There were panic-crying chickens and dogs barking, and probably the group of naughty children were chasing them again.

Perhaps there were also their mothers, panting behind them and scolding as usual - this was probably the secret of the fast running speed of the Tuo family.

The horse around him was already hungry and still couldn't bear to leave him. He was sniffing and looking for dead grass under the snow.

Perhaps the hard-frozen grass stems in winter were not delicious. The horse turned his head in disgust, lowered his head and hit Daozhi's shoulder, urging him to leave quickly and not to be procrastinated.

Dao Zhi nervously held the torn collar that was too dirty and hard and smelly. Looking at the heavy manor gate at the entrance of the valley from afar, he suddenly had the urge to turn his head and run away and never come back.

At this moment, someone in the door shouted: "Xiang Niang, it's getting dark! Go back quickly! The baby is getting cold! It's La Saint soon, and uncle will definitely come back on time!"

Then, a familiar voice came with the sound of opening the door: "Sister-in-law, I'll come out and take a look..."

The narrow side door for family members to enter and exit every day opened with a "creaking" sound, and a baby was crying. The woman coaxed the child out and saw a man and a horse standing outside the door from afar.

It was dark early in winter, and the bright and warm sunset just now came down the mountain like a dog chasing her behind her.

The man was unshaven and had lost weight. He could not see clearly from such a distance. Xiuniang covered her mouth and took a step forward tremblingly. Then she cried out with a "wow" and ran towards the man with her child in her arms.

The Thirteenth Sister-in-law inside the door was looking for a chicken to return late. When she heard the crying, she crawled out with a stick. She saw the three in the distance hugging her family in a group. She couldn't help but shake her head in a funny way and quietly retreated back to the door.

My brother-in-law, who had disappeared for almost a year, finally returned safely. The brothers at home will be happy and this year's La Festival will be held on time.

Thirteenth sister-in-law felt relieved, and immediately accelerated her pace, and informed her brothers of this good news from door to door.

God knows how many times the family has quarreled this year. This said that he shouldn't let his younger brother go out alone, and the other said that he should think of a way to find out his whereabouts and answer it. Unfortunately, my elder brother made up his mind this time and refused to let him live or die. Even if the younger brothers were so anxious that their mouths were blistering, they said that they dreamed that the younger brother had made up another trick, but they were caught and cut into pieces.

She thought that the eldest brother said it was right, and his younger brother-in-law was different now. He was no longer the younger brother who used to be unrestrained and needed care from his brothers at all times. He was the father of a child and the husband of a woman. He had the responsibility to earn glory and future for his wife and children. If he could not even pass the family trial, his descendants deserved to be inferior! His wife deserved not to be recognized by the family!

My brothers have been helping me for so many years but I can’t help them. Now if I can’t rise up for my son, I can only do this.

"Why did you come back? I thought, I thought... wuwu..."

The wind is very cool, but the heart is very hot.

Xiuniang held the child and couldn't make any moves, so she hit his shoulder with her head, which made the Thief's heart almost shatter!

People from their family often go out but cannot come back. According to past experience, if it is more than one year, their family members will be worried.

According to tradition, if there were no special circumstances, the tribe members would come back to participate in the La Festival and ancestor worship. As the Tuo Family La Festival gets closer, Xiu Niang would come to the door to watch many times every day, looking forward to it day by day, disappointed every day. She originally thought that today would be the same as yesterday and every day before, but she didn't expect that she would really wait!

The cheesy in his arms was still young, probably because he was scared, and cried again. Dao Zhi's eyes were red and his face was red. He stretched out his hand to hug him, but he didn't know how to start.

He is a father! He really can't imagine it! So Xiuniang doesn't dislike him and insists on thinking that he is a good person.

Xiuniang sniffed, holding back her smile and sent the child to his hands, and said gently: "Zhi, this is our son."

Holding her soft son, thinking about the disappointment that Xiuniang might have, Dao Zhi immediately burst into tears, which made Xiuniang wield her tears while pounding his shoulders.

Seeing her beating Tuo Zhi, Ma Er was unhappy and squirted into the middle of the two of them, deliberately grinning and scaring her.

At this moment, it was pitch black all around, and only the patrolling member of the house patrolling the stone wall at the entrance of the valley was holding a torch in his hand. Suddenly something came over to spray the heat, which was smelly and exposed a row of white and large teeth. Xiuniang was really scared and retreated, but she did not escape, but quickly snatched her son back, and then pushed Daozhi toward the horse without hesitation.

Seeing her holding the child, she ran back, regardless of her life or death. The Thomas, who were almost unable to stand firm by the horse, suddenly had a black line.

How long has it been?

This woman's mind is full of her son and no longer has her place!

The husband's leadership is not strong!

The husband's leadership is not strong!

The horse sniffed, as if mocking him, and the Tuo Zhi hummed, but he no longer had psychological pressure and walked home.

As he walked, thinking that he had brought nothing back now and he didn't plan to continue to be a thief in the future. Xiuniang couldn't even get his official marriage, and their son wouldn't get the family's recognition. He might have to farm with him all his life, and Dao Zhi was timid again.

As a woman, she values ​​her son more importantly. She is not someone else's son. Does he, as a father, still have to compete with this baby?

The wild horse had no harness and was very arrogant with a big mouth. Even the Tuo family dared to open its mouth to chew on it. Dou Zhi was so angry that he slapped it lightly, and then pushed it into the door.

A naughty child had already received the news and was waiting at the door. A horse face squeezed in. It was so dark that everyone was so scared that they took several steps back before they could see clearly that it was a horse. They couldn't help but boo at the Thief who came in and was closing the door:

"Wow—Did you just steal one horse this time?"

"Tsk~ How is it possible to be such a big horse? Without harnesses, my uncle must have tamed a wild horse and returned to charge it!"

"Wow—"

A group of children ran away with grimaces, and Dao Zhi was very angry.

Only the thief who is the least capable and returns empty-handed will be treated like this.

While Dou Zhi was resentful, he felt a little aggrieved. He immediately thought that he had just stole Prince Bai from Yan State. Although no one could know, he still straightened his back!

But when he stepped into the house and saw Xiuniang who was embarrassed to see him, he immediately collapsed.

No one believed this kind of unproof thing after he said it.

People always say that they will catch thieves and get stolen goods. For the people in their family, if the dirt is not taken back, it doesn’t count, let alone that’s still the same person?

Seeing him hanging his eyes and walking into the house, looking sleepy, Xiuniang thought of using the horse to show off her little temperament, and hurriedly brought her clean clothes and diligently changed her dirty clothes for him.

No man could refuse such treatment. Dao Zhi became energetic and coughed hypocritically, then stretched out his hand so that she could operate with convenience.
