Chapter 21: Farewell Today, Never Again
Chapter I
"This rain is getting heavier and heavier~!" Under the candlelight, Xu Sanniang was looking at the recent account book, there were fewer and fewer merchants in her hands, she investigated for some time, and she could not find other information about the acquisition merchant surnamed Chen. The woman who did the errand for him had a certain amount of martial arts. It seems that the shape shì is changing.
"Knock~knock~knock" came the sound of knocking on the door. Xu Sanniang was not happy to be disturbed by the acquaintance in the middle of the night. She didn't want to deal with it, but the other party still knocked on the door slowly. Xu Sanniang walked reluctantly to the direction of the door.
I thought that I must scold this person who knocked on the door. Let her remember it for a long time in the future.
"Who is this, who doesn't sleep in the middle of the night, knocks on the door here, what is there not to say in the daytime"
"Sanniang's rainstorm can't withstand your sharp mouth"
"How are you?" Xu Sanniang had a frightened expression.
Zhang Zhai was already in trouble at this time, and Zhang Chenyi smashed another piece of porcelain with a snap. Several of the subordinates were too frightened to move. Steward Li looked at this messy living room, "Childe, you are angry, the wooden silk girl also has unspeakable secrets"
"Childe, I found a letter in the study" At this time, a family member ran in a panic, and when he passed the threshold, he also dropped a dog to eat. Steward Li scolded in a low voice and took the letter.
"Read"
"It's Childe." At this moment, Steward Li's face was pale, his hand holding the letter only trembled, and finally he knelt on his knees and cried, "Childe." Mademoiselle told you not to look for her. She said, "Say goodbye today, never again."
When Zhang Chenyi heard Steward Li's words, he only read it in his mouth and didn't believe it, I didn't believe it. The others also understood the severity of this matter, and they all knelt in horror. They all rely on the Zhang family for food. The Zhang family has the best treatment, the least life, and there are no rules. They didn't want to lose this good job.
"Childe, if you don't believe me, you can find someone else to take a look. But don't break your heart."
Zhang Chenyi used to believe in some things so much, but he gave a hard blow at this time. What if you are helpless? In the end, since she chose this way, she disappeared into her own world.
He couldn't calm himself, only a flurry of hesitant steps, a stream of hot air about to burst through his heart. Suddenly, his hands covered his chest. A mouthful of blood spurted out. The crowd was frightened and overwhelmed.
Only Steward Li shouted to find Dr. He, but fortunately, Dr. He lived on the mountainside underground, and it took an hour to go back and forth. Dr. He basically practiced medicine in Jingzhou. I only stay there at the end of each year. Dr. He put down Zhang Chenyi's hand. He looked at the man on the bed again.
"Childe, this is a bloody attack. It's okay to live and recuperate, but remember not to be hit again, otherwise I'm afraid it will leave sequelae," Dr. He instructed as he wrote the prescription.
In the past few days, after Zhang Chenyi took the medicine, he was basically sleeping. Everyone is also sad in their hearts.
"I say, this girl has lost her conscience. Our son-in-law loves her in every way, and she has come to the end, since she has come to such a trick."
"No, the lord hasn't come back yet. This young master lay in bed all day and did not wake up. But what can I do? ”
"Steward Li said that he had written to inform Young Master Xiao"
"Young Master Xiao? Yizhou is still at war, I'm afraid it's useless to write it," the two family members sighed.
"Steward Li. Why did this wooden silk girl leave without saying a word? What does this make Childe do? ”
"What if she did? Will she still be able to walk? It's a trivial matter to go, I went to the money bank today, and found that the money in the deposit was also taken away," Steward Li said sharply.
"What? The money was also taken away by the wooden silk girl? The bowl in Aunt Niu's frightened hand fell to the ground.
"What's the panic, I didn't say that it must have been taken by the wooden silk girl," Steward Li skimmed Aunt Niu. Women still like to be surprised.
"It's not her, who else? Childe never went down the mountain. This wooden silk girl looks very good on weekdays, but after getting married, she began to change her face, and she looked high. Now that he has taken away the Zhang family's money, he has also taken it away. By the way, Steward Li, what about our wages? ”
"Hey, you, what a fool, sir, did they put all their money in the bank? There must be a part of the place where they know it. What are you afraid of wages, the Zhang family is so big, and the son is still there. "Steward Li didn't want to explain anything to this woman.
Steward Li took the boiled medicine away. He pushed open the door of Zhang Chenyi's room and found that he had woken up, and he seemed to be quite recovering from the bed, but he was not popular at all.
"Childe, are you awake? Let's drink the medicine."
Zhang Chenyi took the medicine and drank it in one gulp, handed the empty bowl to Steward Li, and asked weakly, "How long have I been asleep?" ”
"Back to Gongzi, three days"
"Three days? Is there any news from my father? ”
"Nope"
"Is there anything else going on?"
"There is something about Hui Gongzi,"
"Say"
"The money stored in the bank has been taken away," Steward Li whispered.
"What? Is it all? Zhang Chenyi heard Steward Li's answer yes. His slightly fine body began to cough again. Steward Li hurriedly stepped forward and patted him on the back. After coughing for a while, he relieved himself and asked Steward Li to step back.
Zhang Chenyi smiled bitterly, although he knew that something would happen before, but he didn't expect that since she brought it to him. My heart seemed to be pressed by an invisible stone, my mouth kept trembling, and my mind was blank at this time. The hands and feet are cold. The medicine he had just drunk seemed to be about to erupt as he gasped slightly.
Sure enough, a stream of heat erupted from his mouth, but he knew that there was something bloody with it, so he picked up something casually and wiped the blood from his mouth. The love words she said to herself seemed to be a qiē that happened yesterday. I used to be so obsessed in exchange for such irony.
Let him be so heartbroken. I'm afraid that only she can do it. It turned out that what he thought was eternal, but it was just his misunderstanding. Zhang Chenyi originally thought that this was already the worst, but when he could get out of bed, the storm that was being planned was about to hit.
"Haven't you heard from your father lately?"
"Hui Gongzi, no. I only came last month, saying that I came back this month, and according to the master's actions, I should have come back a long time ago" Steward Li helped Zhang Chenyi to walk under the verandah.
"It's raining, it's cold"
"That's it, it's winter, son, you add more clothes. Don't freeze."
"Hehe, no matter how cold the weather is, it's not as good as those biting personnel," Zhang Chenyi sneered. Steward Li talked helplessly. Ever since the young master stopped mentioning the name Mu Silk, all his feelings and expressions seemed to have gradually disappeared.
At this moment, with a whoosh, a cold arrow shot straight at the pillar beside Zhang Chenyi. Steward Li shouted at the son to be careful. Zhang Chenyi clearly felt that the cold air just now passed through his face. Steward Li was already so frightened that he sat down on the ground.
He didn't know, Zhang Chenyi couldn't see so he wasn't afraid, or was it because he was fearless at this time? Steward Li immediately got up and asked, "Childe is hurt?" Seeing Zhang Chenyi shaking his head, he saw that he was indeed not injured, and then pulled out the cold arrow.
"Childe, this," Steward Li's heart was raised, and his eyes stammered and trembled.
"Say it quickly"
"This says that the master is in their hands, and if they want to save people, they will need 50 million taels."
50 million taels is not a large amount for Zhang's house on weekdays, but now, the money village is empty. It is not yet the last month of the year, and the accounts of the merchants under the mountain have not yet been settled, and even if they are settled, I am afraid that it will not be enough.
He trembled all over, half opened his mouth, and let out a hoarse sigh, Zhang Chenyi asked Steward Li to help him. When he came to the room, he pushed open the bookshelf and opened the mechanism, and a box popped up inside, and after opening it, let Steward Li see if it was enough.
