Chapter 10 Wu Qiang
The medicines that Shen Yao takes every day seem to be black things in the eyes of Yan Lin, and he can't tell the specifics.
Wang Shentong took the medicine and looked at it carefully, and occasionally put it under his nose to smell it.
"It's all tonic for conditioning, and some herbs for clearing heat and dissolving phlegm. Shen Yi explained beside her, she couldn't help but be a little worried when she saw Wang Shentong identifying it so seriously, "Is there any problem?"
Wang Shentong shook his head: "There's no problem, I'm just curious, by the way, check if I still remember what these medicines look like." Taking advantage of the fact that the Shen family sisters were not paying attention, Wang Shentong secretly hid the black medicine in his sleeve. Ji Lin noticed Wang Shentong's small movements, he frowned, Wang Shentong was too strange today.
The next chat was much easier, everyone exchanged childhood experiences with each other, but more often the Shen sisters asked the two brothers, Wang Shentong of course seized the opportunity to make a big splash, and Yonglin pulled the only remaining delicacy in the remaining meals.
"The boss can play the piano, right?" Shen Yi suddenly reminded.
Wang Shentong said: "This is what I am here for today. He leaned over and asked Shen Yao, "I don't know which tune Miss wants to hear?" Of course, he would only write "Moon Fu" silently.
"'Moon Fu'," Shen Yi said, "Sister, don't you like to listen to this song the most." ”
Shen Yao tilted her head and thought for a while: "But I want to change the tune!" In the conversation just now, she had already discovered that Wang Shentong's past had no shadow of the piano at all. Shen Yi didn't tell her that Wang Shentong wanted to play the piano for her, but just said that she invited them to play at home, originally wanting to surprise her, but she was worried that playing "Moon Fu" would embarrass Wang Shentong.
Wang Shentong panicked all of a sudden, he thought that Shen Yi had communicated with his sister in advance, and Ji Lin had an expression that he didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, and drank tea calmly.
"It's not that ...... Do you want to listen to "Moon Fu"?" Wang Shentong said.
Shen Yi was embarrassed: "It's inconvenient for Boss Wang Shen to change the song? Usually the little sister likes that song, but today I don't know why I ...... it."
Of course it's inconvenient!" Wang Shentong roared in his heart.
Shen Yao learned from their conversation that the two had communicated in advance, since it was not my sister's temporary idea, there shouldn't be much of a problem, Wang Shentong didn't mention it just now, but he didn't talk about it. Shen Yao saw Wang Shentong's face flushed, thinking that she said that she didn't want to listen to "Yue Fu", Wang Shentong failed to show off her skills, she also learned the piano when she was a child, and she knew very well that it took a lot of effort to learn a difficult song and show off to others, so she said: "If it's convenient for the boss, just play "Moon Fu". ”
Wang Shentong was pardoned, he looked at Yan Lin and let out a long breath.
Shen Yi took out the signed piano from Shen Yao's room and put it on the coffee table. Wang Shentong walked in a manner according to the etiquette of the old piano master, and Shen Yao looked at it with a complicated expression.
Wang Shentong found the strings in the ceremony, and as soon as his fingers were put on it, Shen Yao burst out laughing.
"What?" Shen Yi asked her.
"It's okay, it's okay. Shen Yao waved her hand, and she motioned for Wang Shentong to continue playing. Wang Shentong followed his memory, and his two middle fingers flew up and down between the strings. Shen Yao's laughter was getting louder and louder, it had reached the point of being presumptuous, and even caused a cough, Wang Shentong asked with his eyes many times, but Shen Yao said that it was okay and let him continue.
After a song, Wang Shentong closed his eyes for a long time, acting with endless aftertaste, but he didn't grasp the degree and almost fell asleep.
"Nice!" Shen Yi took the lead in applauding, although her sister smiled weirdly, she could see that she was very happy, and she was also happy, "Yaoyao still has anything she wants to hear, maybe Boss Wang Shen can play." ”
Boss Wang Shen didn't know how to play, he just sat with a smile.
"No, no, no!" Shen Yao said with a smile, "I'm already very satisfied." ”
Shen Yao naturally saw that Wang Shentong was playing the piano indiscriminately, although every note was correct, but how could anyone use two middle fingers to poke the piano! I don't know what method he used to memorize such a lengthy "Moon Fu".
Wang Shentong didn't know this, he thought that his performance was very successful, especially after hearing his sister say "no need" and "already very satisfied", he proudly threw a wink at Yilin.
"What makes my sister laugh so happily!" a man in his twenties pushed the door open.
"Brother Wu. Shen Yi called softly.
Shen Yi seemed to know that he would come back, so he deliberately didn't lock the door.
Wang Shentong should be prestige, and saw that the person who came had thick eyebrows and thick lips, and his appearance was stocky, like a loyal and pure person.
Wu Qiang walked quickly to the crowd, and said to Wang Shen and Tongyilin: "I have long heard that the two heroic young men have seen them today, and they really live up to their reputations. ”
Wang Shentong frowned, this Wu Qiang is only a few years older than them, but he deliberately raised his rank when he opened his mouth, calling them "teenagers", I don't know if it was intentional.
"I listened to Xiao Yi yesterday that you will come, and today I deliberately went home early to witness the demeanor of the two young heroes. Wu Qiang sat next to Shen Yi, "I don't know the two, which one is Wang Shentong Shaoxia, and which one is Yaolin Shaoxia?"
Seeing that Wang Shentong ignored him, he got up and made an introduction.
Wu Qiang said some polite words such as thank you for your care, and went to ask Shen Yao if she was okay today, he took out a pair of medicine from his pocket, handed it to Shen Yi, and told her to let her sister take the medicine on time. Wang Shentong has been silent, Wu Qiang thought he was introverted, so he explained to Ji Lin that Shen Yao's medicine had always been bought by him, and he had to worry about all the big and small things at home, and he had to take care of business at the same time, which was very tiring, but he felt that it was worth it. Saying that, Wu Qiang also glanced at Shen Yi affectionately.
Ji Lin felt a little disgusted for no reason, Wu Qiang had been in a hurry to declare sovereignty since he entered this door, and the two of them basically had no chance to speak, and the Shen sisters were also resigned.
Later, the atmosphere became more and more dull, Wu Qiang always wanted to control the field, but he was a not very interesting person, and the scene was embarrassing for a while.
Wang Shentong still didn't speak, so Ji Lin got up and made a gesture, and said, "Thank you two young ladies and Brother Wu for your hospitality, it's not early, we should go back." ”
Wu Qiang stood up: "Then don't leave two more, pay attention to safety on the way back." ”
Wu Qiang sent the two to the gate, said goodbye, and before the two could move, the door slammed shut.
Yilin frowned, but it was a one-sided relationship, and he didn't go to his heart, and was about to call a carriage on the street, when Wang Shentong suddenly spoke:
"Let's go. ”
The suburbs are much more comfortable than the city. When the sun goes down, the heat in the city is just beginning to dissipate, and slowly some wind will blow through the streets and alleys, and people will start to go out and move. In the suburbs, there is a lot of greenery everywhere, and the occasional passing natural pool reflects a little starlit sky, and the soft grass lifts the feet of pedestrians, and even the chirping of cicadas is less noisy in this pleasantness.
He has been very close to nature since he was a child, and the uncarved places always remind him of his vague memories of his hometown - not so much a feeling as a feeling, in such a place his mood will always become very relaxed, and even the momentum in his body will flow more comfortably.
After staying away from the crowd, Wang Shentong finally spoke: "It's not quite right. ”
Jiolin remembered that Wang Shentong was interrupted by Shen Yi in the afternoon, and asked, "What's wrong?" Wang Shentong is very weird today, he was originally a crazy personality, and he was cheerful before, but Yilin's understanding of him always felt that he was hiding.
Wang Shentong said: "Didn't I give Shen Yao a pulse?" ”
Younglin nodded.
"Shen Yi said that he invited a lot of famous doctors to no avail, Shen Yao's pulse seems to be floating and rootless, and the number is uneven, and it is common for the frail, and the doctor can't judge it before and there is no problem, but," Wang Shentong lowered his voice, "During this time, there was a slight shock when the pulse was pressed, as if it was poisoned, and looking at Shen Yao's performance, it was likely to be poisoning." I can probably guess these things half-heartedly, and the doctor will not know?"
Youngen was thoughtful.
"The skin is a chronic poison that erodes the internal organs, manifests as coughing up blood halfway, and dies in six months to a year. Of course, people who are going to die have weak energy, but I heard Shen Yi say that Shen Yao had this symptom for the first time as early as six years old, although it affected her life, fortunately, there seemed to be no risk of dying in a few years.
"Her weakness was not caused by the prune, but if she died, it must have been smashing poisoning. ”
Hearing this, his scalp tingled: "What basis do you have?"
Wang Shentong took out a black piece from his pocket, and he recognized it as the piece he had stolen during the day.
"This thing is a puff skin," Wang Shentong said, "Originally, I was not sure, after all, I hadn't touched pharmacology for a long time, and I thought about taking it back to find a pharmacy to identify it, but Wu Qiang's performance this afternoon made me feel that it was not necessary." ”
Jiolin remembered that Wu Qiang said that Shen Yao's medicine was bought by him, and he said this to emphasize his close relationship with the Shen family sisters, but he didn't want Wang Shentong to suspect him. Yilin understood what Wang Shentong meant, Wu Qiang's performance in the afternoon was indeed very unpleasant, but because of this, it was too hasty to conclude that Wu Qiang had a problem.
Wang Shentong doubted Wu Qiang earlier than Jiolin imagined, and he didn't know why, when Shen Yi said 'Brother Wu' for the second time, he felt very wrong. At first, there were some blind guesses, but all kinds of information collected later continued to strengthen Wang Shentong's guesses. It's too coincidental, he came back when Shen's father had an accident, and soon after, Shen's mother also passed away one after another, advocating to sell the things in the house, and bought a lot of supplements, except for increasing the financial burden of the Shen family, it had no effect, Shen Yao was weak, and he couldn't bear the big supplements at all. And his strange profession, a timber middleman? Timber is not a profiteering industry in the first place, how can he make money if he changes hands a few times? Wang Shentong proposed to go around just now, in fact, to see this Wu Qiang's home, and he just took out Wu Qiang's address from Shen Yi's mouth. Wang Shentong passed by Wu Qiang's house and found that he lived in a small wooden house, with only a simple bed and a few bowls, and there was no trace of wood at all.
"So you go back now and see, this Wu Qiang, who is sacred. ”
"Remember, don't be caught by him. ”
