Chapter 43: News from Cousins
Sheng Sleeping Crane was in the study at this time, and Gongsun Xi was the only one in the study, but he still wore the mask called "Crow Slaughter" to cover his face, just like when he was at sea, but the previous dark shirt was replaced by a white pine pattern round-necked robe, covered with a moon white crane.

In fact, at this time, the season has already entered summer, even if the island is cool, but a delicate woman like Sheng Weiqiao is not cured, and she only needs to wear single clothes, and there is no need to add a coat. Sheng Sleeping Crane was dressed tightly, and he was still covered with a big coat over his robe, which showed that his injuries were serious.
In particular, the snow chin under the mask is more and more jade-white, flawless-white - but it is also a sign of lack of qi and blood.
Seeing Gongsun Yingdun bring Sheng Weiqiao in, Gongsun Xi frowned slightly, but Sheng Sleeping Crane immediately stopped the rat whisker pen that was waving in his hand, put it on the pen mountain, clasped his hands together, pressed his chin, and smiled with interest: "I knew that my sister would definitely come to visit me!"
"Who came to visit you?" Sheng Weiqiao was originally quite worried about him, but as soon as Sheng Sleeping Crane said this, she immediately blew up, stared at the apricot eyes, and sneered, "I'm just going around casually, you don't put gold on your face!"
"Didn't you come to see me?" Sheng Sleeping Crane sighed as if he was disappointed, and then changed his tone, and said hesitantly, "This really disappoints me! Sure enough, I should still dispose of the current matter, go back to Sheng Mansion as soon as possible, rob you of the family property, compete with you for favor, and sue you in front of my grandfather every day...... Are you afraid?!"
Sheng Weiqiao felt that he was simply dizzy!!
Isn't it good to recuperate in the house of Gongsun Yingjiang?Why do you come to find this bastard Sheng Sleeping Crane?!
This is simply self-inflicted!!
She silently recited, "Gongsun Yingdun and Gongsun Xi are all present, I am the original concubine, how can I be easily angry by an outer room?" After a while, she controlled the urge to rush up and scratch Sheng Sleeping Crane, and sneered: "Grandfather just thinks that you have been living abroad for many years, and only went back for the sake of giving you some extra face! ”
"But you're a girl!" Sheng Sleepy Crane smiled at this, but said happily, "You are thirteen years old, and you will be about to leave the cabinet for two years or three or four years, and I will stay in the Sheng family for a long time! What do you mean by that? It means that after you get married, you can only go back to your parents' house once, but I can always serve my grandfather, grandmother, and father! After ten or twenty years, how can they still remember you as a concubine, of course they only remember me as a male heir, right?"
The corners of his mouth were hooked high, revealing an extremely bright smile, "Now tell Brother Wei again: Did you come to visit me specifically?"
"......" Sheng Weiqiao clenched her fists angrily, followed by opening her fingers, and then pinching tightly, after so many times, she seemed to think of something, walked a few steps forward, pressed the long case of Sheng Sleeping Crane's jaw, stared at his eyes behind the mask, and said word by word, "Don't you want to know why I came to you?"
Before the words fell, she suddenly grabbed the inkstone on the table - Gongsun Xi and Gongsun Yingdun thought that she was going to use this inkstone to smash Sheng Sleeping Crane, the former had a murderous look in his eyes, and he was about to draw his knife to face him; after the latter was stunned, he showed great admiration, and even a trace of secret pleasure - but he saw Sheng Weiqiao holding the inkstone high, but he didn't mean to smash it, but shook his hand and sprinkled the ink that had not been used up inside Sheng Sleeping Crane's head and face!
"......" Sheng Shenghe quietly withdrew the hand holding the handle of the knife on Gongsun Xi's waist, glanced down at the ink stains on his clothes, and suddenly found something funny, stretched out his fingers and dipped the ink on the mask, wiped it a few times on his chin and midriff, and said with a smile, "How is it? After painting my brother's beard, does it look more calm and reliable?"
Sheng Weiqiao, who was still holding the inkstone: ..................
Why didn't he get angry?!
Why isn't he angry!?
He wasn't angry!!!!!!
Sheng Weiqiao felt that he was about to explode!
"Ying Dun, why are you here?" Just as she was thinking about whether to simply smash the inkstone over, a loud voice suddenly came from behind her, and said with surprise, "Didn't you say it, don't disturb your little uncle if you're fine?"
Sheng Weiqiao subconsciously looked back, but saw a twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old man striding in.
This man has a slightly dark complexion, a tall figure, and a very dignified appearance, which can be called handsome. He was dressed in a dark short, and there were many traces of old scars on his bare arms and neck, although he was smiling at the moment, whether it was a sharp gaze like an eagle falcon or a rich evil aura all over his body, it showed that he was extraordinary.
"Dad, are you here?" and Gongsun Yingdun's title also confirmed Sheng Weiqiao's guess, this little boy saw that this person was like a mouse seeing a cat, and he lost all the fun and jumping off of watching a good show before, and almost stepped forward to salute, and hurriedly explained, "How dare the child disobey your will?
"This is the sister of the Sheng family?" Gongsun Shu heard this, and looked at Sheng Weiqiao with a smile, he was not hostile, and he could even be said to be quite friendly - but the edge that he had cultivated over the years still made Sheng Weiqiao subconsciously take a step back when he met his sight.
Seeing this, Gongsun Shu smiled more and more modestly, and tried his best to soften his voice, "I am Gongsun Shu, and I am the landlord of this land." Since my sister is my younger brother's sister, she is my sister, just like when she was in the Sheng family, don't be polite!"
"Hello sea lord!" Although Sheng Weiqiao thought that he was a good family and should not be in the same stream with the bandits, but when he really saw this sea lord who claimed to kill without calculation, he was a little timid, so he hurriedly put down the inkstone and said politely, "I've disturbed the sea lord for the past two days!"
However, although he was very jealous of Gongsun Shu, Sheng Weiqiao was estranged from the pirates after all, so he only called him "Sea Lord", and refused to call him a brother according to the meaning of his words.
Fortunately, Gongsun Shu didn't care, smiled and exchanged a few words with her, and after fully fulfilling the gesture of a hospitable and warm host, he made an excuse to leave.
was interrupted by him like this, especially Sheng Wei Qiao Yantai was put down, and it was not good to worry about Sheng Sleeping Crane anymore, he only glared at him fiercely, and he was about to leave, but he didn't think that she hadn't proposed to Gongsun Yingdun to go back, Sheng Sleeping Crane suddenly said to Gongsun Xi and Gongsun Yingdun: "You all go out, I have something to tell my sister alone!"
Seeing that Sheng Weiqiao seemed to be about to object, he made a silent gesture, "It's about the third sister and Cousin Shen." ”
Sheng Weiqiao was suddenly solemn!
After Gongsun Yingdun and Gongsun Xi retreated to the door, she couldn't wait to lie on her stomach and asked, "My cousin and my third sister have found it, and how are they now?"
"Nope. However, Sheng Sleeping Crane stared at her for a while, but shook his head and said, "Tortoiseshell Island is now being besieged by Han Pan's team, and it is already the Gongsun clan that has been operating in Nanfeng County for many years, and it has a deep foundation. How is it possible to say that it is still the same as usual, and that it is possible to know the news on the shore well?"
He paused, "I got this news from the Han family, but in fact, it's just my guess at the moment, and I may not be able to do it accurately." ”
When Sheng Weiqiao heard the word "Han family", his heart jumped, and he blurted out: "Could it be that they were taken captive by the Han family?!"
"It's very likely!" Sheng Sleeping Crane's answer broke her luck, Sheng Weiqiao's face turned pale for a moment, and he dared to ask: "Then they are now?"
"It should still be alive. Sheng Sleeping Crane lowered his eyes, covered the flickering under his eyes, and muttered for a while before he said, "Because of the fact that we joined forces to kill Young Master Han before, I was afraid that the Han family would make some moves because of this, so the spy recently kept an eye on the Han family, and found that the Han family had sent a team of elites ashore a few days ago to capture a group of people, including two young ladies who looked beautiful and luxurious, and their ages were very consistent with their cousins and third sisters—— However, the spy did not see them with his own eyes, and he did not know where they were being held now, so the news is still being verified. I'm just afraid you're worried, so I'll tell you first!"
Sheng Weiqiao held on to the bookcase, she was silent for a long time, only the water in her eyes was shining, she endured it for a long time, but she still couldn't help crying: "How can this be?"
What will happen to the women who fall into the hands of the bandits, especially the pretty and beautiful girls like Shen Jiuniang and Sheng Weirao, do you need to say?
Thinking of the cousin who had been called "Xiao Qiao" by her for many years, Sheng Weiqiao's heart hurt like a pinprick: when Shen Jiuniang was rejected by Xu Baomo, Sheng Weiqiao also comforted her that she would find someone who was a hundred times better than Xu Baomo in the future. Who knew that it had only been a few days, and Shen Jiuniang had suffered such a misfortune - even if this cousin was rescued from the bandits' den alive in the future, it was a question of whether she could survive, right?
And cousin Sheng Weirao is one year younger than Sheng Weiqiao, she is only twelve years old this year!
After killing Young Master Han before, Sheng Weiqiao was worried that she would have nightmares when she slept, dreaming that Young Master Han's soul was seeking revenge on her, but at this moment, she wished that Young Master Han's ghost would not go away-she would break his body into ten thousand pieces ten thousand times!!
"As long as people live. Sheng Sleeping Crane just returned to the Sheng family, Shen Jiuniang and Sheng Weirao are his cousins and the other is his cousin, in the case of Sheng Weiqiao's own sister, these two sisters naturally don't attract his attention so much, so he is still very calm at the moment, and said slowly, "Anyway, it's better than having no news before and not knowing life and death." ”
Sheng Weiqiao wiped her tears and asked hatefully, "How long will it take to get them out?"
According to her, she can't wait to bring someone to rescue the two sisters right now to comfort her, but she also knows that this is Tortoiseshell Island, not a Sheng Mansion where everything is according to her heart.
So at this moment, I can only hope that Sheng Sleeping Crane can read it for the sake of blood love and take this matter to heart.
He simply said, "I already have a plan, just wait for my father to come to the island and discuss with him before I can act." ”
Sheng Weiqiao didn't know much about this kind of thing, so he didn't ask about it, he just gritted his teeth and said: "If Xiao Qiao and the third sister are really in the hands of those beasts, and they will be spared, I will chop them with my own hands!!"
"Speaking of which, you came here on purpose, and you didn't come here to see me, but what's the matter?" Sheng Sleeping Crane directly avoided this question, what kind of joke are you kidding? This girl cut off Han Shaozhu's head with a sword, so neat and neat killing method, she was in a coma for four days and four nights afterwards, if she was really asked to chop people with her own hands, she would still be able to hold it after chopping people?
Sheng Weiqiao, who was in a stirring mood, didn't notice his evasion, and said casually: "I heard that Miss Gongsun was thrown into the sea last night, and she soaked in the sea for most of the night before she could go ashore, so that she fell ill today." So I want to ask you, who is so crazy?!"
Originally, because of her status as the daughter of Gongsun Ying Jiang Haizhu, she had limited sympathy for this girl. But just after hearing the news of Shen Jiuniang and Sheng Weirao, and looking at Gongsun Yingjiang, who is older than his sister but seems to have a more docile and harmless temperament, he is more or less in love with the house and Wu.
The tone also became intense, "Not to mention that Han Pan is eyeing the outside, and it is simply self-defeating to have internal fighting right now! Just saying that Miss Gongsun is a girl, delicate, weak, and quiet, who can hinder anything? Is he still a human being so ruthless? With such great ability, what do you do not kill the people of the Han family's Pan family, but against an innocent girl, it is simply shameless to the extreme!!
After scolding as if venting, Sheng Weiqiao looked up and saw Sheng Sleepy Crane looking at him with deep eyes, and said gently: "Sister!"
"Huh?" Sheng Weiqiao was puzzled.
"Do you think it's a brother, such a talent, like a crazy person?" Sheng Sleeping Crane's tone was soft as water, "Does it look like a shameless look? Sister, you really have to speak with your conscience!"
Sheng Weiqiao was dumbfounded, and only after a while did he eat: "Yes...... You threw her into the sea?!why?!"
"Because she wore a gauze dress and tied a bell in the middle of the night, and thought of dancing for me by the couch. Sheng Sleeping Crane was very calm, "I thought it was a female ghost, so I threw it directly into the sea under the cliff outside the window!"
Sheng Weiqiao: "......"
Almost dazed, she continued, "Why did she dance for you?"
According to her, it was Brother Xu Shige who gave her the idea. Sheng Sleeping Crane was still calm, "I don't really believe this statement, so let her soak in the sea for most of the night, think about it and then answer me!"
Sheng Weiqiao: "...... And how did she answer you after soaking in the middle of the night?"
"In the middle of the night, what kind of rhetoric can't be thought of?" Sheng Sleeping Crane glanced at her with a smile, "So I didn't bother to listen after dawn, and sent her back directly—I'm very busy right now, how can I have time to worry about such a trivial matter with her?"
Bagatelle?!
You threw other girls off the cliff into the sea for a trivial matter?! and forced them to soak for most of the night before they were allowed to get up?!
If you think it's a big deal, aren't you going to cut down someone's whole family?!
Sheng Weiqiao looked at him half frightened and half angry, and instantly thought: With his harsh words to him these days, especially the act of spilling ink just now...... What will this man do to himself?
