Chapter 933: Mustard
The merchant felt a pang in his heart, he knew that this person seemed to have a mustard because he had inquired about Zhao Rong just now, so it was better for him to explain it clearly. Thinking of this, the merchant immediately stood up and spoke to the man in a very ordinary tone, as if he had not noticed at all what kind of inexplicable emotion the man looked at him.
"Alas, big brother, it seems that this Zhao Shiyi really fell asleep. Also, he drank so much wine that he was able to support himself until now before he fell asleep, and I felt very admired for him. ”
After saying this, the merchant took a bite of food for himself as if nothing happened, and after eating it, he continued in a somewhat regretful tone: "Alas, it's a pity that I originally planned to inquire about the news of my benefactor, but I can't continue like this. ”
When the man saw the merchant's actions and words, he put away his gaze, which had been looking at him just now, and asked as if nothing had happened.
"What? Is there anything else in here that I don't know? What's the matter with the benefactor you mentioned? Could it be the young master named Zhao Rong you just inquired about?"
At this time, the merchant also pretended to be solemn, and answered the man's question seriously: "Yes, big brother." I haven't told you about it before, and most importantly, I haven't met the benefactor my mother said about either. The last time I went back, wasn't it because my mother was sick? The illness came urgently, the illness was raging, and it just so happened that I was not at home. I couldn't afford the money at home, so I went to find a good doctor, but my daughter-in-law was in a hurry.
Just when the family was crying and crying and there was no way, it is said that a young boy passed by our house, heard the movement in the house, and did not know what was going on. After the boy knew that my family was in trouble, he kindly took out five taels of silver and paid the money for the doctor, so that my mother's life was returned. ”
Speaking of this, the merchant's eyes were a little red. He was trying to recall how dangerous his wife was that time. He was so anxious that he was in a hurry, selling everything he could sell and deserving of it, just to exchange more money for his old lady's treatment.
Thinking of the hardships at that time, he was also bitter in his stomach, and the merchant's expression at this time was as real as it was.
When the man looked at him like this, he really put away the vigilance that had just risen. This merchant is indeed a filial son, if it is really as he said, their family is funded by a little son, so as to tide over the difficulties, it is no wonder that this merchant wants to do everything possible to inquire about this benefactor.
Thinking of this, this person couldn't help but ask again: "Is the little boy you are talking about the same Zhao Rong that you asked Zhao Shiyi about just now?"
The merchant deliberately hesitated for a long time, and then said, "Hey, I'm really embarrassed to say this." The main thing was that I was not at home, and the situation was a little chaotic at that time, and my mother-in-law was finally able to remember and ask the little guy about the name of his son-in-law, who was already Amitabha.
She heard the little maid say that the boy was the young master Zhao Rong of the Zhao family in this county, and she didn't know anything else. It was also my mother-in-law who was confused, and she didn't ask clearly at all, so she let the little guy go.
I don't even know what to say, but that's a great kindness. Now my mother's health is much better, and she asked me to inquire about the news of my benefactor, and I should thank them well. But my stupid mother-in-law told me that the information was also very vague, and she only knew that it was the Zhao family in this county, and she only knew that the young master was called Zhao Rong.
I was really embarrassed to say this before, this stupid woman just can't do anything. Therefore, if I hadn't met Zhao Shiyi, I would have been a little anxious to know if there really was a young master named Zhao Rong in their family. ”
After saying such a long list of words, the merchant touched his head honestly, and smiled a little embarrassedly, as if he felt very embarrassed that his mother-in-law had done such a stupid thing to let people know.
After a while, he said, "I originally planned to enter the Zhao family, and then slowly inquire about the news of the benefactor. But after listening to the words of the eldest brother today, I knew that the Zhao family was really a behemoth, and I was also worried that after entering the Zhao family, I still couldn't find out the news of the benefactor, so I hurriedly asked Zhao Shiyi if there was such a young master named Zhao Rong. ”
After listening to the merchant's explanation, this person's heart slowly settled down. He said, he still has the eye to see people, and this little brother is a sincere person at a glance.
It was also after listening to his narration that this man understood why this merchant did this. He was embarrassed to tell himself that his mother-in-law had done such a stupid thing.
Thinking of this, the little mustard that originally rose in this person's heart also disappeared all at once. He turned around and thought about the merchant, "Hey, who knows what's going on with this Zhao Shiyi, who dropped the chain like this today." In the past, he couldn't have gotten drunk so quickly, but he didn't expect this guy's alcohol to get worse and worse. ”
For Zhao Shiyi's abnormal behavior just now, this person was also very puzzled in his heart. After all, I had never seen Zhao Shiyi take such an extremely evasive attitude towards any Zhao family's people or things before. I don't know what kind of secret this merchant's benefactor, the young man named Zhao Rong, has, so that Zhao Shiyi would rather keep his mouth shut and get drunk in advance than reveal the slightest.
At this time, this person was planning in his heart, and he didn't know if he should pay more attention to this young master of the Zhao family called Zhao Rong in the future. After all, it's clear that there is something wrong with this person's identity. But he won't find fault with this kind of moment.
Since this merchant is just looking for the benefactor who is kind to his family, then this matter should be very simple, and probably will not involve some privacy of the Zhao family, so there is no need for him to remind the merchant of this matter.
Of course, the merchant also thought that he didn't know that there was something abnormal about this matter. He showed that he completely believed this person's statement, and after the two of them ate this tasteless dinner absentmindedly, the merchant followed the person back to his house, as for Zhao Shiyi, there were naturally people around him who helped send him back to Zhao's house.
The night after he returned, the merchant couldn't sleep after tossing and turning. He made up his mind that he would urge that person early tomorrow morning to see if Zhao Shiyi had forgotten about his own affairs after drinking too much.
