Chapter 350 Chapter 350: How do you see your good face (3)【Two in one】
"Find, find me?"
Shen Tang pointed to himself.
It feels like winning a small lottery prize.
Not much money, but unexpected.
However, Shen Tang's attention is always very strange. She pondered over Gong Xiqiu's words carefully, and found something wrong: "Wait, I heard that you made a special trip to ask about He Yin from the proprietress earlier, and thought it was a special trip to visit me. I'm just incidental?"
At first, I was quite moved that my friends remembered me.
Thinking about it again, it was actually her who paid by mistake.
Gong Xiqiu was not embarrassed by being caught, but rather confused by Shen Tang's question: "Isn't this all the same?"
Shen Tang said firmly: "It's different!"
That-
Gong Xichou tilted his head in doubt.
Ask in a soliciting tone: "Then I apologize?"
Shen Tang appreciates his way.
"Well, okay, then I accept."
You can't break up with your bosom friend just because of a small conflict.
Gong Xichou apologized straightforwardly, and Shen Tang accepted it as a matter of course. Only the onlookers couldn't understand the logical connection. This, this may be the reason why they can become close friends, but outsiders can only be at a loss?
"Parents, please have some tea."
"Little servant" brought a pot of tea.
Shen Tang looked at the pierced earlobe of the "little servant", smiled meaningfully at Gong Xichou, and asked, "You?"
She gives a little thumbs up.
Gong Xiqiu looked at his little finger blankly.
"What does this... mean?"
Gu Chi: "The little finger belongs to water, and refers to children and juniors."
With Gu Chi's wrong science popularization, Gong Xiqiu hurriedly explained: "This is not a junior in the clan, but a person who was rewarded by the former adoptive father. I think she has a pitiful background and is clever, so I stayed by my side as a maid to help with the care. living expenses."
Originally, it was the attendant wife who took care of his life.
With this maid, Gong Xiqiu no longer has to worry about finding pearls that were thrown around. I didn't want to take her with me when I went out this time, the pressure of traveling day and night was a bit heavy for a weak woman. It's just that considering that I'm not here, there may be some cheap people coming to make trouble, so after thinking about it, I decided to bring them along.
Shen Tang: "..."
One dares to explain, the other dares to answer.
Her gossip heart was forced to extinguish.
The topic turned back to that strange boy.
"You said that boy came to me just now, did he come to join me, or did he come to seek revenge on me?"
Shen Tang is very confident in his own charm, but there are not many people in the world who can appreciate it. In addition, her reputation has not been fully established, so it should not be able to attract high-end talents to take the initiative to join her grass-roots team. The young man's bones are excellent, even though his appearance is desolate, but the details of his breathing and walking all show that this young man is a practicing family with a solid foundation.
With this condition, why bother to find her?
The probability of defecting is not high, but the probability of seeking revenge is high.
Gong Xiqiu's answer was unexpected: "It should be defection. When he was rescued earlier, he kept saying that he wanted to ask Mama to repay his favor. He said it was his sister's order before she died, but unfortunately, he didn't know the way. ..."
"His sister?"
There is no impression at all in my mind.
Have you ever saved his sister?
Seeing Mama's reaction, Gong Xiqiu knew that she was also surprised, so he suggested, "Why don't you call someone over to ask?"
"also."
Gong Xiqiu asked the "boy" to go to the stable in the backyard of the inn to call for someone. After a while, the boy dragged the heavy chain and walked over step by step. Gong Xiqiu pointed to the empty seat and said to the young man, "Sit down, I have something to ask you."
The boy hasn't taken a bath for some time.
The exposed skin was covered with dirt, and there was an indescribable sour smell floating all over his body. Even though his clothes were ragged and Ke was on his feet, he was not at all cramped when facing outsiders. When Gong Xiqiu asked him to sit down, he sat down generously.
"She's the one you're looking for."
Gong Xiqiu pointed at Shen Tang.
Hearing this, the young man's calm eyes finally changed, and he turned his head abruptly in the direction Gong Xichou pointed. The opening of the mouth is just three words without thinking: "It's you?"
Maybe because he hasn't talked to outsiders for a long time, the boy's voice is much deeper and hoarse than his peers.
"What is me?"
The young man immediately asked again: "You bought my nephew with 40 Wen? Where is he now?"
Forty Wen?
Buy his nephew?
When did this happen?
Shen Tang vaguely felt that this matter was familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while. Gong Xiqiu helped Shen Tang sell Amway for free, and wished he could force the following words into the young man's mind: "As expected of Mama, she is really kind and kind, and has a bodhisattva heart! It turns out that there is such a relationship in it. Don't worry. , your nephew must be doing well with me, Mama!"
Shen Tang's forehead protruded: "Shut up!"
Gong Xiqiu didn't expect that he would be murdered, so he bowed his head in aggrieved expression, and quietly moved his eyes up to observe Shen Tang's reaction.
Shen Tang: "..."
She remembered the matter of "buying a nephew for forty pennies". When he was still in Xiaocheng, Sibao County last year, Shen Tang's base was in a bandit camp on the mountain. In order to further expand the manpower of the bandit village, Shen Tang decided to go down the mountain with Qishan to buy, and it was that trip that bought Lu Jue.
But before meeting Lu Jue, Shen Tang saw a woman holding a son in the arms of a woman on the side of the road. The son's skin was cold, and he died in the woman's arms, but the woman was obviously unconscious, or she refused to accept her son. The fact of his premature death made him look crazy.
Shen Tang sympathized with the woman's motherly heart, so he spent forty dollars to buy the corpse from her and buried it in the back mountain.
In addition to this incident, there is nothing else.
Shen Tang swallowed his saliva, secretly thinking off the scale!
The woman should be the young man's elder sister. Looking carefully, the eyebrows of the two are indeed somewhat similar. But why didn't that woman tell him that his nephew had died?
Where is she going now to find a nephew for the boy?
"Ahem, this matter is actually..."
Shen Tang looked distressed.
Gong Xiqiu knew something was wrong when he saw this posture. He pretended to adjust his sitting posture, changing his sitting posture to a very loose and rude one, his body was crooked, and his center of gravity was leaning on the low table. The muscles under the dark clothes have entered the state of "ready to go".
Shen Tang chose to tell the truth.
Following her narration, the young man's eyes dimmed a little bit, his eye sockets were red, and there was water mist, without any doubt or rage, he was obviously prepared for it, and he choked up slightly: "My sister's family only has such a little blood. I thought I could find him and bring him up well, but I found out about Shen Jun...I didn't expect it to be like this..."
Blame him for returning too late.
No wonder the others.
Why didn't the boy doubt Shen Tang's words?
Naturally, it was because after he returned home, he saw that his whole body was skinny, and only his elder sister with a big belly knew what was going on at home. In a family of five, except for the nephew, everyone else looks the same. The boy expressed a glimmer of hope that his nephew was still alive, but reason told him that it was unlikely.
The nephew is too young, and the two older ones died young. Can he survive until he is bought and raised by a kind person?
Shen Tang's answer made his long-suspended heart drop to the ground, but the heavy sound made him dejected.
"Condolences."
Shen Tang could only be so relieved.
After listening to Gong Xiqiu, he also roughly understood what happened inside. He couldn't help which pot was not opened and which pot was lifted. He looked slightly dissatisfied, and began to criticize the young man: "You are also a brave fighter after all, and you are even capable of protecting a few ordinary people. None?"
Shen Tang rolled his eyes at Gong Xichou.
said: "The customs of the outside world are different from yours."
In the Gongxiqiu ethnic group, babies are generally raised by the mother and the natal uncle. The clan members live close together, so it is very convenient for them to take care of each other. But in the outside world, when a woman marries into her husband's family, it is impossible for a young man to marry as a brother-in-law.
It is difficult even if you want to asylum.
The boy was good-natured and not angry.
just lowered his head silently, without saying a word.
Actually, he really can't be blamed for this matter.
The young man was lucky, he was discovered by someone when he was still a child, and he was taken away as an apprentice. Because there was a warrior in the family, it also added honor to the parents and sisters in the family, and her elder sister also found an excellent marriage because of this.
The man is considered a wealthy household near the village.
The boy returns home once every three years, and every time he returns, he sees that his family is doing well. Even Sibao County was captured by Zheng Qiao for the first time, and his family escaped in time. In the past few years, except that the living conditions are not as good as before, everything else is fine.
Family letters also report good news but not bad news.
Young people will learn at ease and become successful at a young age.
As soon as he came out, he heard that there was a rebel army of King Zhu in Sibao County. The crops had not been harvested in the past two years, and God did not reward him. He felt a little bit in his heart, and went home while asking.
I realized that so many things happened at home.
Parents were blackmailed to death by bullies on the way to escape. He tearfully reburied their bones in the ground and went to look for his sister. When I finally found it, the smell of corpses in the shabby house was overwhelming, and my sister, who used to be bright and kind, curled up beside her rotten husband like a dead bone that was about to decay.
The young man had just recovered from the shock of the death of his parents, and was hit so hard by the corpses in the dilapidated house, he felt his eyes spinning. Sister still breathed a sigh of relief. After drinking the hot soup, her spirits improved significantly, and her gray skin was slightly reddish.
The young man knew that this was a flashback.
My elder sister was sober and told him that his little nephew was bought by a kind person, and he will live a good life. If there is a chance, he will help take care of it. He babbled about the appearance, clothes, and voice of the kind-hearted man, and his cloudy eyes were full of gratitude and anticipation.
She was grateful for Shen Tang's kindness, and hoped that her son would live a happy life, and she died in the expectation of this happiness.
The young man endured his grief to settle down with his sister's family.
Since then, he has embarked on the road of finding his nephew.
Having lost all his blood relatives in just a few days, the grief and indignation in the young man's heart was pent up in his heart, and it was difficult to vent. He persisted, asking around for bits and pieces of news about Shen Tang like a normal person. Coincidentally, he ran into the same bully who killed his parents and bullied women and children.
The nerve called reason broke down.
Punch after punch smashed the bully's head into a paste, and was finally caught and exiled. On the way to exile, he heard an officer talk about Heyin Fugu County Sheriff, and unexpectedly found that this person might be the person he was looking for, so he violently beat and injured the officer and fled.
As a result, he fainted from hunger and hunger, and was picked up by Gong Xiqiu.
The latter heard that he wanted to find the Sheriff of Heyin, and agreed to take him on the road without saying a word. The young man Anxin stayed to be a temporary groom for others, and the right was to repay Gong Xiqiu's kindness.
"It's also a person with a rough life experience." Shen Tang looked at the young man with pity, and said in a warm voice, "Do you have a place to go? If you have no place to go, why not follow me? Later, I will move your nephew's tomb here. Although Heyin is small, it is still considered A place to shelter."
The boy pursed his lips, as if hesitating.
He originally went to Shen Tang to take care of his nephew, but now that his nephew is gone, he doesn't have to stay. It's just that Shen Tang's invitation hit his weakness, and his heart was shaken.
Gong Xiqiu hugged his chest in dissatisfaction: "Why hesitate?"
The boy looked at him and said, "It's more suitable to follow the parents."
Gong Xichou is also a brave fighter, and his intuition told me that this person is very strong, and even a head-to-head encounter may not be able to shake the opponent.
In comparison, Shen Jun seemed too gentle and weak.
Who knows that Gong Xichou doesn't welcome him at all.
Muttered in an imperceptible voice: "Follow me? I don't even know when I will die suddenly...
He patted the young man on the shoulder and said with a loud smile: "I dare to pat my chest to assure you that Mama is definitely the best person in the world. If you miss her, you will regret it for the rest of your life. Even if you follow someone else now, maybe in the future Why do you still want to make such trouble with her? It's better to do it in one step, don't you think?"
Youth: "..."
He didn't quite believe it.
But judging from Shen Tang's behavior of buying a corpse just to comfort a loving mother, he is indeed a good person. A good person may not be a wise man to a person of insight, but it is a great thing to the common people.
After a long time, the boy said, "My surname is Xianyu."
"Salted fish?"
The boy didn't hear the problem.
It's just a gesture of submission: "Fresh and strong."
"I am willing to listen to Shen Jun's orders."
————
"I didn't expect to find a brave warrior during this trip. It's still a good seedling." Privately, Gu Chi and Shen Tang joked, "It seems that the master's daydream was not in vain."
Shen Tang curled his lips: "Enough of teasing?"
Gu Chi shut up knowingly.
Shen Tang asked Yu Zi to find a set of clean clothes and send them to Xian Yujian. These are also his subordinates, and the salary should keep up. The most basic thing is to clean up personal hygiene.
"Ready to greet Zhang Yongqing?"
This business trip has limited time.
There are too few people in the Grass Stage team, and almost everyone has several jobs. She has been out of ink for too long, and the few Wenxin scholars in the nest should rebel. She intends to make a quick decision and resolve the matter here as soon as possible. Gong Xiqiu also had the same thoughts as her.
On the second day, we made an appointment to come to the door together.
Although he did not reveal his intention and true identity, Zhang Yongqing received him in person based on Gong Xichou's amulet of courage and courage. To tell the truth, which man can refuse the 15th grade young master.
Even if the other party didn't come to join him, what if? Shen Tang thought he had figured out what Zhang He was thinking.
Who knows, when they met, the latter's eyes kept falling on her face—keep looking, keep looking.
Shen Tang: "...Why Zhang Gong is watching me like this?"
