Chapter 40: Ice Release Suspicion

Chapter 40: Ice Release Suspicion

Hua Lang is talkative, Shen Laibao is also talkative, the two went back together, talked on the way, and unexpectedly found that they were very compatible.

Hua Lang, who had a little doubt, completely felt that Shen Laibao was really not a villain at this time, and then thought about it, he was really not as clear as his brother. Thinking of this, he said calmly, "Although my eldest brother doesn't know the truth like me, he always insists on listening to your own explanation, and he doesn't think that I don't trust you like this." ”

Shen Laibao said, "Now I can be regarded as a stranger to you, there are too many misunderstandings, and it is not strange to be suspected." ”

Hua Lang said, "That's right, so...... I'm not all wrong. But my brother will certainly reprimand me, alas. ”

Shen Laibao smiled, "It seems that your brother is a very strict person. ”

"Yes. He trusted my father the most, loved Ling Ling the most, and looked like an elder to me. Hua Lang said, "Obviously only three years older than me. ”

Three years old? Shen Laibao listened to his description, and thought that the flowers were much bigger than him. He remembered the appearance of Hua Xu yesterday, and he was indeed just a teenager, but judging from his demeanor, he was much more stable than children of the same age.

The two families of Shen Hua are neighbors, but they are not like each other at all. It is also strange that so many years have not affected each other. Probably because although the two families have different living habits, they are good people in their bones, so they get along well. And the Shen family does not interact with the Zhu family in an alley, and the Hua family is the same.

That Zhu family is the little fat dun family who beat him in the alley at first.

Sure enough, things gather by like, and people are divided by groups.

When the two entered the alley of Nanfeng, Hua Lang stopped, for he saw that the coachman who had been driven away by him had returned again, and the carriage was also parked in front of him, and the coachman was rubbing his hands together to look at him.

Hua Lang frowned, he and his brother were away all the year round, and the family's carriage was vacant, and every time they came back, they would temporarily hire a short-term worker to be their coachman. At first, he reminded him that he was in a hurry, but he didn't expect that he still didn't have a long memory, and he really didn't want to hire such a coachman anymore.

Shen Laibao saw that the coachman looked at himself from time to time, and saw that Hua Lang was about to come forward to solve it, and it was inconvenient for others to interfere in other people's family affairs, so he said, "Then I'll go in first." ”

Hua Lang nodded, "I'll look for you later." ”

Shen Laibao responded, and then went home. Passing by the door of Hua's house, he remembered that it was time to go in and go to Hua Ling to talk about walnuts, and it was time for Hua Xu to explain those two things in person, so that people could not continue to misunderstand. He had already grasped the brass ring in his hand when he saw a voice behind the door. After a while, the door opened, and he took a step back, only to see that it was Master Hua who came out.

"Uncle Flower."

The old man who was about to go out looked down and said with a smile, "Noble, why do you have time to come here?" ”

Shen Laibao said, "I'm here to find Big Brother Hua and Little Flower." ”

"Xu'er he went out, but Ling Ling was inside, I don't know if he was coaxed to sleep." Master Hua suddenly said, "Don't move." ”

Shen Laibao immediately paused, the previous person had already bent over, reached out to the sachet on his waist, and wanted to remove the thorn that was stuck in it, for fear of piercing him. When I came out, it was clearly not a thorn, but more like a crumb of a hard shell.

Shen Laibao swallowed, "It's a walnut shell...... It's the walnut boat you gave to Lingling, and then Lingling passed it on to me. ”

Master Hua didn't expect him to confess so lightly, but he knew in an instant that he didn't mean to hide it, and his mood was much better because of this frankness, and he smiled, "Oh? How did that break? ”

Shen Laibao said, "I don't know very well, I've been hanging on my body, the only thing I remember seems to be that day in Taozhuang in distress, I was knocked down, I felt that my waist was hurt by something hard, but it didn't look like a stone." When I came back, I saw that the walnuts were colored, so I rubbed them repeatedly, and when I tried hard, they broke into slag. It's me who didn't take care of ......."

Master Hua lowered his eyebrows and thought for a moment, and roughly knew what he was talking about. If so, then there is nothing to say, walnuts themselves are not fragile things. He asked, "Then why did you carry the broken walnuts with you?" ”

"I promised Xiaohua."

Mr. Hua smiled suddenly, "Well, you explain it to Ling Ling, she won't blame you." ”

Shen Laibao, who thought that even if he would not be scolded, he would be asked a few more words, but he didn't expect Master Hua to believe him so lightly, and he was quite surprised, "Uncle Hua, I heard that this walnut was specially made by a skilled craftsman?" ”

"Yes."

“…… I wanted to ask someone to do the same, but I thought that even if I did the same, it would be different from the original, so I wanted to find an opportunity to apologize to Xiaohua. But in the past few days, Xiaohua's two brothers have been home and have not been able to meet me. ”

Master Hua smiled, "No, when you go out to dry every day, you will become a little black girl." Okay, let's go inside, don't worry too much, Suzuki is a sensible girl. ”

He never spared praise for his children, and in the same way he scolded them if they did something wrong. This is really avant-garde in Shen Laibao's opinion, and he is even thinking, is the whole family of the Hua family crossing?

The thought that appeared in his mind suddenly made him think that it was possible. But if you think about it carefully, Mrs. Hua shouldn't be, judging from her words and deeds, it's not like it.

If...... Only Daddy Hua is a fellow villager, so it is not impossible for him to take root here, marry a wife and have children, and teach his children to use the methods of that world.

The more you think about it, the more you can circle it, and no matter what detail you look at, it seems to be right.

Could it be that Daddy Flower is really a traverser?

He was surprised, and when he went to the inner courtyard to find Hua Ling, he was still looking for clues.

The Shen family is good, but it is not his own home after all, if he can go back, he still wants to return to his own world. There, it's good to live alone, but in the Shen family, there are too many worries.

It's just that the Shen family treats him well, if he leaves and Shen Laibao doesn't come back, then ......

In a dilemma, he didn't know if he would choose to go if he really had a chance to go back.

Hua Ling was carried back to the room by her mother to sleep, and as soon as her mother left, she opened her eyes without the slightest sleepiness. Hearing someone knocking on the door outside, saying that the young master of the Shen family next door was coming, she thought she was dreaming. Rolled over, as if he really heard.

"Girl, the young master of the Shen family is here."

She sat up, got dressed, and went out. Although she is still a little girl, the boudoir can't let men in, not even her brother. She didn't know why, but her mother said very harshly, it should be absolutely not, and she just obeyed it.

opened the door, and the person who came was indeed Shen Laibao. She grabbed him by the corner of his coat and asked, "Brother Noble, do you remember my two brothers?" ”

Shen Laibao said, "I don't remember much, is it because of yesterday?" I just saw your second brother and explained to him that we were back together, and he was talking to someone else in the alley. ”

Hua Ling breathed a sigh of relief, just because of the temper of the second brother, she knew that if she hated someone, she would not stand together even if she was standing. But this can go home together, of course, the second brother believed him, "That's good, ...... that morning"

Shen Laibao said again, "The subordinates guarding the door are very forgetful and didn't tell me." By the time I chase you out, you're gone. I also went to the horse farm, who thought you didn't go. ”

"So that's the case, I know that Brother Noble is not the kind of person who will lose his trust, every time you go to the horse farm to feed the horses, you are the most punctual."

Shen Laibao looked at Hua Ling, who was even happier than himself when the misunderstanding was solved, and suddenly felt that it was really good to be trusted. At the age of six, he can trust his companion so much. He took off the sachet, handed it to her and said, "Xiaohua, the walnuts you gave me were accidentally broken by me. ”

Hua Ling was stunned, hurriedly took the sachet, unsealed it and saw that it was really walnut crumbs, poured in his hand, and he could see a little of the original appearance from the residue. She suddenly felt distressed, firstly because she really liked the walnut boat, and secondly because her father had specially carved it for her.

She looked up and asked, "Brother Noble, how did this break?" ”

Shen Laibao told the Taozhuang again, and finally said, "I don't know if it was a walnut that was lost at that time, but after I went back, the sachet was also flattened and full of dust, so I guessed if it was because of this." Otherwise, with the hardness of walnuts, they should not be so fragile. ”

Hua Ling turned her head to look at his waist when she heard this, and she didn't know if it was left or right, so she simply looked left and right, "That must be very painful, right?" The walnuts are so hard that I've seen my grandmother pinching them hard through the crack in the door and not breaking them, and they popped out, almost hitting me in the face. ”

Shen Laibao was slightly stunned, "Xiaohua, don't you blame me?" ”

"Why blame you? Don't say that Brother Noble was caught by walnuts because you saved me, even if you fell down and were injured by him, it was Walnut's fault, you have to blame Walnut! ”

Shen Laibao found that what she said didn't seem to be quite right...... But why does it always feel reasonable...... He really wanted to hug her and tell her that she was so well-behaved and kind. In the end, he held back, and he found that Hua Ling was really simple, right is right, wrong is wrong, and there is no set of standards for adults to judge people.

He tossed and turned for so long and thought about the words of apology, which did not come in handy - as long as he was honest, did not lie to her, did not hide it, and was justified.

Think too much, calculate too much, and you lose a lot.

Hua Ling scratched her head and said, "This walnut was given by my father, I hope my father won't be angry." ”

"I saw your father just now, and I also made it clear to Uncle Hua, but he didn't say anything."

"That's what it is...... But it's still a pity, after all, this walnut is big, of course, if it wasn't so big, it wouldn't hold you and be crushed. So at the end of the day, it's still too big. ”

Shen Laibao couldn't help laughing, reached out to take back the sachet and tied it back to his waist. It was inexplicable to see the flower bell, "Brother Noble, the walnuts are broken, why are they still hanging?" ”

"It's broken, it's also a walnut, and it was originally hung, which is the heart. Now for me, whether the walnuts are broken or not is not the main thing. ”

Hua Ling didn't understand it, and thought to himself, probably because he really liked this broken walnut!

Outside the Hua family's mansion, Hua Lang also solved the coachman's matter, and under his repeated promises that he was almost in tears, Hua Lang also relented and promised to use him for another three days.

The coachman thanked him and immediately drove to the backyard of the Hua family. Hua Lang watched the carriage, which was as slow as a buffalo, go out slowly, and next time he would definitely tell him - slow is slow, but definitely not this speed!

As soon as the bell stopped here, there was another bell behind it, heading for the south wind alley.

Hua Lang saw the carriage and knew that it was his eldest brother, so he stepped aside and waited for his brother to pass. Hua Xu also saw his carriage rushing towards the backyard, looked out of the window, but saw his younger brother standing at the entrance of the alley, and immediately asked the coachman to stop.

"Second brother."

"Big brother." Hua Lang asked, "When will the eldest brother go out?" ”

"After you." Hua Xu said, "I went to the school to meet Master, by the way, I have something I want to tell you, it is about Shen Laibao. ”

Hua Langming's eyes suddenly smiled, "Coincidentally, I also have something to tell my eldest brother about Shen Laibao." ”

&&&&&

The night breeze was slightly cool, dissipating the residual heat of the day's scorching heat.

The sound of crickets in the yard and the sound of frogs in the pond made it a little more cool in summer.

The Hua family had just had dinner, and Liao ordered his subordinates to move the leftovers, and the family drank tea and chatted as usual. In the morning she carried her daughter back to her room, put her to sleep, and then went to tea with the other ladies, and had just returned. happened to see the Shen family's subordinates coming out to pour water at the door, so he asked him Shen Lai Baoke at home, knowing that he was there, he thought about letting his sons go to him.

After eating, she spoke, "Then Shen Laibao is back." ”

Hua Lang said, "I know, I came back with him, Brother Bao is very good, a hundred times better than before." ”

Liao's blink, together? Brother Bao? Not bad?

Hana Xu also said, "Well, that's good. ”

Daddy Hua also said, "It's really good." ”

Hua Ling interjected, "Of course Brother Noble is very good." ”

Liao Shi looked left and right, praising sentence by sentence, and she was stunned. In the few hours she was out, what Shen Laibao did was praised by everyone. Especially the second son, who was like a cannon fight in the morning, also boasted about people.

Hua Lang said again, "By the way, big brother, I told Brother Bao that we would go out together tomorrow, this time it's right, I personally invited him to see him nod in person." Brother, what do you say, you are the biggest, listen to you. ”

Hana Xu nodded and pondered for a moment, "Okay, well, let's go fishing then." ”

Hua Lang: "......" He really wanted to take back that sentence!

The invitation of the three brothers and sisters of the Hua family was conveyed to the Shen family by the subordinates, and when Master Shen heard that his son was invited next door, this was the first time, and he was deeply pleased, and he did not talk about his son to study quickly, but urged the servant to hurry up and prepare something for him to go out.

Shen Laibao, who didn't know that he had won praise in the Hua family, concentrated on trying the fishing rod, and he still liked fishing.

After coming here, he didn't have much time to fish, and Daddy Shen also felt that it was better to read a few more books if he had this spare time, and he couldn't go.

Now that the Hua family invited, Father Shen immediately agreed. Shen Laibao knew that what his father promised was not to let him go fishing, but to promise who he would play with.

In terms of what kind of friends to make, Daddy Shen can see it and is very open-minded.

But in terms of what kind of girl he likes, Daddy Shen is surprisingly stupid.

Shen Laibao had watched Father Shen and Mrs. Shen fight for many days, and the whole family seemed to be a lot nervous, and even the old lady asked him many times if he had received any rumors.

When he returned to the house with the fishing rod, facing the deeper and cooler evening breeze, suddenly a spirit, yes, there is a way to try, so that the two of them can release their previous suspicions.

There are so many people in the Shen family, and there are four or five people outside the house, and they can't tell the truth if they want to, so they have to have an independent space.

Shen Laibao had an idea in his heart, and his steps became relaxed. When I entered the room, I put the fishing rod on the table, undressed and lay down, and had a good night's sleep.

The next day, while the Hua family was still having breakfast, they heard the movement of a carriage in the alley. Everyone at the table looked at each other a few times, and they could probably guess whose carriage came out.

After breakfast, the three of them went out and looked to the right, and sure enough, it was the Shen family's carriage. After a while, Shen Laibao also came out, and after seeing the three of them, they said hello one by one, and the four of them got into the Shen family's carriage and went out.

The Shen family's carriage is much larger than the Huajia carriage, and even if it is the smallest one, it can lie down people, but because of its large size, it is not conducive to walking in the city. The carriages of the Hua family are generally small, and it is difficult for the largest one to lie down, but it can shuttle through the downtown area.

Each has its own good, and each has its own practicality.

For example, if four people travel today, it is quite appropriate to use the Shen family's carriage.

The misunderstanding has been resolved, and two of the four are chattering, so naturally there is a lot to say. When I got to the river, I laughed all the way, and there was a lot of fun between the words.

The carriage had been winding its way from the outskirts for a long time before it finally reached the river.

The river surface is spacious and bottomless, I don't know whether it is the green trees on both sides, or the stones at the bottom of the river are attached to the moss, the water color is light green, and it looks very clean.

Hua Xu chose a shade position, and only called after dusting it off, "Lingling, come here, ......" Before he finished speaking, he saw that his sister was already sitting at the bottom of a nearby tree, Shen Laibao just stood up, and saw that his sleeves seemed to be stained with dead leaves, guessing that it should be the place he cleaned up for his sister.

It's quite careful.

He withdrew his gaze, and saw Hua Lang standing aside and looking at him with a smile in his eyes, and motioned for this position to be given to him. Hua Xu thought about it, lifted the hem and sat down. Hua Lang suddenly exploded, "Lingling is your sister, and I am also your brother!" ”

"Ringing is still young."

"Excuse, you'll do it even if she's sixty!"

Hua Xu smiled, "I know, why don't you go and find a location." ”

was too direct to refuse, and Hua Lang was a little blocked and speechless. He ran to his sister angrily, and saw that the little man was already preparing to fish in a serious way, and Shen Laibao was still wearing a ground dragon for her, and he remembered that when he was six years old, it seemed that his brother also hurt him.

So you have to be a little milk baby all the time.

He shook his head and returned to his brother with the bucket, and at a glance, the place around him was clearly cleaned. He was greatly moved in his heart, his brother really still loved himself!

Hua Xu noticed that someone was sitting down next to him, turned his head to look at it, and immediately frowned, "What are you doing here, this is what I left for Noble Treasure." ”

Hua Lang: "!! ”

Shen Laibao took care of Hualing, so he went over to find the Hua family brother to see who went to accompany Hualing, the two trees were far apart, Hualing's brother was there, and it was not good for him to accompany her. As soon as he arrived, Hua Lang was driven over.

Hua Ling had been holding the fishing rod for a while, and after sitting for a while, she scratched the back of her hand and looked down at the insects crawling on the ground. At a glance, Hua Lang saw it, and laughed loudly, "Lingling, are you fishing or catching insects?" ”

"Later, the second brother will be the same as me, the eldest brother said, we are all the way."

Hua Lang, who was poked in the weak spot, was speechless, sat down and said, "Are we really going to catch fish for a day?" ”

The two of them, who knew that their eldest brother felt that this sentence was nonsense, and they sighed in unison.

The sound of chattering over there came here, and Hua Xu glanced over there several times, "But in three moments, they will definitely run to the neighborhood to play." Noble, can you go to the racecourse in the afternoon? I want to take them for a walk over there. ”

Shen Laibao is very adaptable and doesn't care about changing locations, "Okay, Lingling has to feed the horses every evening, and she is happy to go early." ”

Hua Xu smiled, "You are also someone who will hurt your sister." ”

Shen Laibao doesn't treat Hualing as a sister, but more of a friend. On the contrary, he hates bear children, but the well-behaved and sensible ones are likable.

He has seven younger sisters in the Shen family, but the Shen family is distinct, and Old Lady Shen and Father Shen are not allowed to enter and leave together, and even in the Shen family, they can't even eat together.

His yard is far away from the other yards, and there is a home to block, and they are afraid of themselves, to be honest, he and Hua Ling have a better relationship, but they are very rusty with their sisters.

Within two moments, the two of them looked under the tree over there, and the two fishing rods were stuck in the ground, and the people were gone.

After a while, the fish in the bucket were fresh and vigorous, and there were six of them. Hua Xu discussed with Shen Laibao and asked people to find them back. Then I went directly to the racecourse, handed over the fish to the racecourse cook, and made a lunch.

When Hua Ling arrived at the horse farm, he took Hua Lang to see his foal, which was well cared for, and the Ili horse itself was very strong, and when he saw Hua Ling, he rolled up his thick upper lip, and was quite happy.

Looking at the horses here, Shen Laibao took Hua Xu to visit the horse farm. Hana is the only one of the four who can ride a horse, and he can ride a horse every three or five times, so he is not as excited as his younger siblings. I just walked through the stable with Shen Laibao, wanting to pick a good horse.

As he walked, he saw a cart of straw moving in front of the stable, but he didn't see the horse pulling the grass moving, let alone anyone. But the straw fell out of thin air into the stable from the cart, and he was amazed to see it.

Shen Laibao clearly saw it, but he didn't move. Hua Xu knew that it was not haunted, but for another reason.

Walking quickly to the side of the straw cart, he finally saw a little girl standing behind the towering straw pile.

She was holding the grass into the manger, her expression was meticulous, her lips and teeth were pursed, and she seemed to be difficult to get close to. The little girl's eyes were bright, bright and firm, and not as cold as her peers.

He looked at it a few more times, and Shen Laibao had already stepped forward. He thought about it and took two steps closer.

"Qin Qin."

Qin Qin, who was hugging the grass in his arms, paused slightly, and looked over there, it was really Shen Laibao. At the end, when he saw the handsome young man behind him, he immediately withdrew his gaze, and then looked at Shen Laibao, who was already smiling, "Why did you come here so early." ”
