Chapter 70 Return to the Yamen
Zhan Yue cleaned up all the sides of the old man's grave, found the stones in the house and lit the candles, and everyone realized that before they knew it, it was so late. The stone reminded Ren Xin that it was too late, and if he didn't go back, he was afraid that he would worry about Nuying and Wang Weiyan.
Ren Xin looked at Xiao Zhanyue, who was still taking care of the yard, and didn't worry about leaving him here alone, she stepped forward and patted Zhanyue gently, "It's a little late, go back with us." Zhan Yue nodded, looking at the grave of his grandmother in front of him, reluctant in his heart. Ren Xin saw his thoughts, she could understand how sad he was in his heart, but she couldn't let him go on like this, she was just a child.
"It's okay, the surroundings are already very clean, grandma will sleep well here, you see that your body is dirty for a while, let's go back and get acquainted with it, have a good rest, and come to see grandma tomorrow morning dressed cleanly, okay?" Listening to Ren Xin's words, Zhan Yue kowtowed a few times in front of his grandmother's grave.
Ren Xin helped Zhan Yue up, and was about to leave, but Zhan Yue's brother ran back in a hurry, followed by a few men, looking at the dress, like the people in the gambling house before. Zhan Yue's eldest brother saw that Ren Xin looked like he was going to take Zhan Yue away, and immediately turned red, stepped forward and pulled Zhan Yue away, pushing Ren Xin away.
"What are you doing, who are you, where are you going to take our family exhibition?" Zhan Yue's eldest brother questioned Ren Xin, and several men who came back with him looked at him coldly, one of them looked like a man who took the lead and plucked out his ears, and smiled disdainfully, "I said Zhan Qi, what nonsense, don't you hurry up and hand over Zhan Yue to us, we can go back quickly to pay the errand, it's a big night, isn't this a delay?" β
"Yes, yes, yes." Zhan Qi's face changed instantly, and he smiled and flattered, "What the third master said is very true, this is my brother Zhan Yue, do you want to see if it's worth the price?" β
"Don't look at it, the seedlings that our wife has taken a fancy to will never be bad, hurry up and bring people over, and we will leave when we bring people." The man who was called the third master by Zhan Qi found that from the time he said that he was going to take people away, Ren Xin grabbed Zhan Yue's arm and stared at him vigilantly. The third master is too lazy to cause trouble. He looked at Ren Xin's ordinary clothes, and when he saw that his face was not a threat, he didn't care, so he handed it over to Zhan Qi to solve it himself, just looking at Ren Xin's stubborn little face that made people want to look at it twice.
Zhan Qi said yes twice, dragging Zhan Yue to leave, but he couldn't pull it. Only then did he realize that the woman who had just been pushed away by him had grabbed Zhanyue at some point and confronted him. Ren Xin could tell from listening to their conversation that Zhan Qi must have lost the bet again, and this time he had no money to repay the debt, so he planned to sell Zhan Yue.
"This is our family's business, get out of the way!" Zhan Qi pulled Zhan Yue harder, stretched out his hand and wanted to push Ren Xin, Ren Xin had practiced so well, why wouldn't he let such a yellow-faced and skinny guy bully? She dodged lightly, still pulling Zhan Yue with her left hand, grabbed Zhan Qi's wrist with her right hand, raised her leg and kicked Zhan Qi's waist, where did Zhan Qi think that a woman who looked so slender would have such skills? All of a sudden, the whole person fell down, and he fell on the ground, and the man fell on his back.
Ren Xin pulled Zhan Yue over to protect him, looked down at Zhan Qi, and wanted to go up and beat him. As soon as the third master saw this jiashi, he faintly felt that this person couldn't be taken away today, and he couldn't help but look at this woman who didn't seem to be threatening.
The stone that had been silently observing the form on the side walked in front of Ren Xin, blocking the third master's inquiring gaze, and smiled slightly, "This eldest brother, I'm really embarrassed, the two of us don't want to obstruct a few things, it's just that this child was bought by us for fifty taels before, and he is already ours, if at this time, you are forcibly taking people, this is probably ......."
Saying the stone, he glanced at Zhan Qi on the ground, and shook his head, "If this changes hands again, we should also sell it, Zhan Qi is afraid that he no longer has this qualification." β
"What nonsense are you talking about? When did Zhan Yue sell it to you? How I didn't know! Zhan Qi tossed and got up from the ground, and stepped forward to rob someone, where could Ren Xin tolerate him to do it, he didn't like him, at this time, he was even more angry, and stood up from behind the stone in one step, and grabbed a handful of grass that Zhan Yue pulled out from the ground and stuffed it into Zhan Qi's mouth.
"Heh, when did you sell it to us, where do you think the fifty taels you gambled came from?" Ren Xin followed the words of the stone, and had to admire that the stone's brain turned fast, as long as Zhan Yue had nothing to do with Zhan Qi, these people couldn't take people away. When let's go, the possibility of robbery is not ruled out.
Thinking of this, Ren Xin looked at the third master and the others with a more defensive look.
Several brothers behind the third master were ready to move, the third master blocked, signaling them not to act rashly, he looked at the stone and Ren Xin who were in the way, looked at the stone's speech and Ren Xin's behavior, the two of them moved one by one, and the cooperation was tacit, and it seemed that they were not easy to mess with. Although Ren Xin's skills seem to be a bit of a master, she is not a master after all, but from her figure, there seems to be a shadow of an old man, and he is not suitable for her.
"Dare to ask the girl, but she is from Yicheng?" The third master looked at Ren Xin's face with a smile, thinking that he was personable, and wanted to be close to other girls, but he didn't think that the smile was in the eyes of the people's hearts, which made her have goosebumps all over her body, and she retreated behind the stone in a few steps, not looking at him.
"Yes and what, and what is not?" The stone will protect Ren Xin and Zhan Yue, the third master has a headache, he just wants to get close to the old man's apprentice, what's the matter, it seems that he is regarded as a lewd ~ Uncle Zuo? But, that's it, that's it, looking at Ren Xin's reaction, they did come out of Yicheng, that's right, as an elder, he didn't care about them, and it was too late to make a fuss, so it was better to disperse earlier.
It's just that, looking at Zhanqi, the third master is a little helpless, there must be an explanation for this trip. "Zhan Qi, I'll give you three days, three days, pay back the money or hand it over, you come to the gambling house to give Mrs. an explanation, brothers, go~" Since Ren Xin didn't give him a chance, he didn't need to be so enthusiastic to help, after all, he was also a person who did things. The third master yawned and waved his hand, took away the comer, and walked neatly and without nostalgia, which made the monks who stayed in the courtyard confused.
Ren Xin and Shi looked at each other, thinking that there would be a fierce battle, but they didn't think that the third master waved his hand and didn't take away a cloud, so he withdrew so lightly......
"Zhan Yue, let's go." Ren Xin glared at Zhan Qi coldly, and stared at Zhan Qi angrily to see that Zhan Yue was leaving.
"Let's go." The stone blocked Zhanyue's sight and took Zhanyue's other hand, and just like that, Zhanyue was led away by Ren Xin and the stone in the middle. When he stepped out of that door, Zhan Yue almost thought that everything that happened today was a dream, but the warmth transmitted by the palm of his hand. But it made him feel real, it seemed that they were a family.
The third master said, give Zhan Qi three days, pay the money or hand over the people, he looked at it himself, Zhan Qi spit out the grass in his mouth, and panicked in his heart, he absolutely can't afford to provoke those people in the gambling house, if he owes them, he can't escape from the ends of the earth, but the people have been taken away, where can he get the money?
Zhan Qi hurriedly entered the house, rummaged through all his grandmother's things, but couldn't even find a penny, as soon as he thought of his future, he was swallowed up by boundless fear, he was carried away, ran to the yard, punched and kicked grandma's grave, "Beat us small, you will be eccentric, you will only hurt Zhan Yue, old, dead, you don't leave me a penny......"
Zhan Qi is stubborn, not good at learning, although Zhan Yue is small, but more sensible, more calm than children of the same age, like a little adult, very good at taking care of people, and smart, learn everything quickly, from childhood to adulthood, grandma has always preferred this kind of Zhan Yue, and Zhan Qi, but because of this more and more do not learn well, grandma is old, and he can't control him, gradually, I don't know when, Zhan Qi has become a tumor in the family, making this family a mess.
The soil on the grave was newly buried, and it was still very loose, and Zhan Qi could pick up the soil with his hands, and after a while, his grandmother's body was revealed......
Seeing this familiar face that he couldn't be more familiar with, he panicked, sat back on the ground, and suddenly had an idea.
Ren Xin and Shi took care of Zhan Yue's small steps, pulling him to walk slowly on the road, and he hadn't returned to the inn for a long time.
The road at night was very quiet, and the footsteps of the three could be heard, and when the three of them passed through an alley, they suddenly heard a rush of footsteps, coming in a hurry.
βzhanzhuοΌβ
The person who came seemed to be coming for them, and when they heard the words, the three of Ren Xin were all zhanzhu, and when they turned around, they saw that two rich and "plump" fast catchers chased after them out of breath, and in front of the three of them, they couldn't stop panting.
Zhan Yue looked at Ren Xin, looked at the stone, and blinked at the two catchers who rushed over, and didn't understand what was going on?
"I don't know what happened to the two big brothers who caught us quickly?" Stone asked with a light salute.
The two fast catchers patted their chests, panted, waved their hands, and signaled to wait for them to catch their breath. The three of them just stood there, waiting for the two to catch their breath.
Time passed quickly, and the quiet street could only hear the sound of two fast catchers panting, and finally waited for the two uncles to come to their senses, but these two people pretended to straighten their clothes, and suddenly their faces turned cold, and they said loudly: "You, involved in murder for money and human trafficking, come back to the yamen with us!" β
