Chapter 128: The Past of Wu Tong and Li
When Wu Tong came out of Fang's room, his eyes were red.
When Wu Li saw Xiaoli, he thought she shouldn't be Daya's sister because she was not the right age.
He looked at Liu with a questioning look, and Liu didn't know how to say it.
Xiaoli looked at the scholar-like man in front of her. He was not as old as Wu Li, nor as fat as Wu Li. At this moment, she was thinking why it was not this man who redeemed her.
Wu Li had calmed down by now and stood up. The kind of smile that shouldn't appear on the face of a man who was nearly 50 years old made Liu feel very irritated.
"Wu Li, this is Xiaoli, my concubine, you can just call her Auntie."
Wu Tong's expression froze for a moment. His second uncle actually took a concubine? It seemed that Liu had indeed made a lot of money.
He didn't want to call her aunt, after all, she was just his second uncle. He just nodded slightly as a token of acquaintance.
Wu Li did not force it.
Putting away his smile, he said to Wu Tong: "Now that you are back, you should go and pay a visit to Village Chief Wu."
Wu Tong thought so too. Wu Li agreed to go with him, and the three of them went to Village Chief Wu's house together.
When people heard that Wu Tong had returned, they all went out of their homes and went to the Wu family's old house to see if Wu Tong had changed.
What surprised people was that although Wu Tong was over 30 years old, he had more of the demeanor of an educated man.
Wearing a clean and tidy blue gown and a neatly combed bun, he lost the arrogance of a young man and gained the calmness of a scholar.
Li, who was in the crowd, knew that he had returned five days ago, but this was the first time she saw the man who had appeared in her dreams countless times.
After enduring for so many years and just letting it go, he actually came back.
She was unwilling to accept it! Why did he marry Liu, run away from home and marry another woman? Was it because she and he were not meant to be together?
Village chief Wu was very happy to see Wu Tong returning. He was happy for Liu and the Wu family. After all, the Wu family was now leading the whole village in earning money.
As Wu Tong listened to the village chief's instructions, he was thinking about Li Guihua, whom he hadn't seen for many years, in the crowd just now. Back then, Li was still a young girl.
The young girl fell in love with the elegant scholar Wu Tong at first sight. Wu Tong had just come from the capital, and he had lost his youthful immaturity and was now a gentle and mature man.
At that time, people from all over the surrounding villages heard about the nephew of the Wu family in Shilibao, and they had different reactions.
Wu Tong was disturbed by the trivial matters at home every day, and wanted to study hard to get a good reputation. Therefore, Liu was in charge of everything at home.
At that time, Dalang was 6 years old and Erlang was 3 years old. There were crying children and Mrs. Fang's constant scolding at home. He said he couldn't calm down to read, so he simply took the books to the mountains.
On the mountain is the shadow of a man and a woman having a tryst.
The girl back then has now become a more charming young woman.
If Wu Tong had not seen that pair of affectionate eyes in the crowd just now, he would have forgotten this person long ago.
She was just a ripple in his restless life at that time and did not cause much waves.
"Zi'an, you are tired too. Go back and rest first. The Wu family will depend on you in the future," said the village chief earnestly.
Wu Tong came back to his senses, bowed and said: "Thank you, village chief, for your support to the Wu family over the years. I came here today to express my gratitude. The village chief's kindness is as high as a mountain, and the Wu family will remember it in their hearts."
