Chapter 31: Searching for Someone

Simple study with doors and windows closed. Someone was talking in whispers.

"Lord, shall we find that person first and make him disappear?" The person who spoke had a pair of red eyebrows and big eyes, and his face and beard were all a little red, and he seemed to be a little anxious.

Luo Chengyuan stood in the light and shadow, like a tall bamboo, he habitually knocked on the table and said: "Xu Bai, recently, who is the city lord walking with?" โ€

The red-bearded man named "Beard White" lowered his head and thought for a moment, "It's the new Red Ling Woman." This woman seems to have won the trust of the city lord. โ€

Luo Chengyuan had a hint of melancholy on his face, and his bewildering voice flowed out like a clear spring: "Brother Shao didn't like to hide anything from me before, but last time he found Xiaohu behind my back and recovered the map of Shangdu. It can be seen that he is still wary of me in his heart. โ€

Xu Bai couldn't bear to see Luo Chengyuan's appearance, his master was good enough to the Shao family, but he always didn't get the trust and reward he deserved, so that people like him had to do these things to protect themselves.

"Lord, it's the Shao family who is sorry for you. It's not your fault. Over the years, his master has done his best in this commercial capital, but he doesn't want to be suppressed since the old city lord, and he has made such a promise.

All along, the master's clothing, food, housing and transportation have been cautious, and he does not dare to exceed the slightest rule.

I thought that the situation would change after the death of the old city lord, but I didn't expect that this young Shao city lord seemed to be blind, couldn't see their master's hard work, and took him as a subordinate as a matter of course.

With the ungrateful character of the Shao family, if there is this so-called inheritor, there is the promise before.

In the future, his master will not even have a foothold in this commercial capital.

Luo Chengyuan waved his hand as if he had given up: "That's it, Su Bai, don't talk about this." Brother Shao only told me about the possibility of finding the inheritor this time, but he didn't ask me to find it for him. โ€

"This shows that he has both a defensive heart and a available person."

"We don't have to go to great lengths to find someone, we just need to keep an eye on this Hongling."

Xu Bai thought for a while, and suddenly realized: "The Lord is really wise, let's have a praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches behind, as long as you know who this person is, don't worry about not finding his handle." โ€

"When the time comes, the initiative will be in our hands."

Luo Chengyuan nodded slightly, knocking on the table, his joints gradually reddened due to the knock.

*********************

Dodo, dodo, bang, bang, ....... There was a constant and even sound of tapping in the small courtyard.

Two figures, one red and one white, hid around the corner of the wall like thieves, but only a small, busy back could be seen.

The man lowered his voice and asked, "Are you sure it's him?" โ€

The woman also replied in a low voice: "That's right, it should be him." โ€

The eleven or twelve-year-old boy didn't even realize that he was being targeted, and was still concentrating on repairing a cart. This cart Hongling is very familiar, it is the one that Yuan Qinqin pushes out to sell cakes every day, I haven't seen her out of the stall for the past two days, it turns out that she got the cart here.

It is indeed very simple for Yuan Qinqin to find out this young man, she just took the car into a deep ditch, threw a lot of meat, and then dragged the people from the West who came to her house.

As for who is repairing it, and who can fix it quickly and well, it is only necessary to observe it a little.

Looking at the parts in front of him that were gradually becoming more and more decent in the hands of that young man, Shao Yisong felt that his excitement had never been so difficult to hold: "Hong Ling, what is his name?" โ€

"Xuanqiu. His parents are dead, and he was brought up by his fellow villagers. โ€

With Hong Ling's introduction, a man's voice came from the room: "Xuanqiu, it's time to eat." โ€

The man wiped his hands on his apron as he spoke, and walked out, "How's it going?" โ€

The young man didn't raise his head, and said in a steady voice: "Uncle Aye, it's almost fine." โ€

The man said angrily: "Hmph, that broom star, when something is broken, it knows how to send it to us, what do you think of us." โ€

"Uncle Aya, Aunt Qin has always taken care of Xiao Douding and brought him as her own son, just like you treat me well, she is a good woman."

"We couldn't take care of Xiaodouding personally, so it's right to help her do something small."

"That's what she rushed to do, not what we begged her to do," Ayรจge said. The child was one of our people, but she snatched it away. Sooner or later, I will have to let him return to our people, and I will not let this child confess to be a thief and his mother. โ€

The more Ayรจge thought about it, the more unpleasant it became, and he angrily clumped his apron into a ball and slammed it against the window, and the apron fell to the ground on his stomach.

Alas, Xuanqiu sighed in his heart. Uncle Aya's prejudice against Aunt Qin is too deep.

Hong Ling retracted his head, secretly wondering in his heart how could it be Ayeg. She knew that this person was very bad with Yuan Qinqin.

Without looking any further, Shao Yisong said, "Let's go first." โ€

"Hmm."

When the two returned to the workshop, they were about to miss their meal.

"Lord, where have you been? City Lord Luo is waiting for you to eat, and the food is waiting for it to be cold. โ€

The attendant Aoki hurried over to greet him, they had grown up together since childhood, and they spoke with more affection than others. Shao Yisong didn't care about these at all, when he heard that Luo Chengyuan was coming, he could only run faster.

"Why is Brother Chengyuan here, you didn't tell me in advance, how long has he been waiting?"

"It's not the Lord who has come to you, I haven't greeted anyone where you have been, and if you don't come back, everyone will go out to find you together. Miss Hongling, next time you go out with the city lord, remember to tell the little ones. โ€

Shao Yisong sneered: "My fault, my fault." You don't persuade Brother Chengyuan to eat first, he has a bad spleen and stomach, how can he starve. โ€

Hong Ling followed and walked briskly, feeling a very unspeakable sourness in her heart, at first, she didn't know that Luo Chengyuan had cared about Shao Yisong when she was harming him, they treated him as a brother, and in Shao Yisong's heart, they regarded him as the person who could rely on him the most.

But I didn't expect that this dearest person was full of harmful thoughts in his heart.

She remembered that she couldn't avoid it every time, this time she avoided poisoning, she couldn't avoid the open thorns, the next time she avoided the poison and the open thorns, she couldn't avoid all kinds of wrong drugs and eating the wrong things, the last time she thought about all the places, she didn't expect the fat powder she used to be poisonous, Shao Yisong just kissed her cheek with a moment of joy, and was poisoned to death.

How much resentment can make people treat others so unscrupulously, not to mention that this person trusts himself in every way and relies on him a lot.

Thinking like this, I forgot that I was walking towards that person.

I was caught off guard and saw the back under the lamp, what an elegant and handsome son.

Familiar looks, familiar people. The headband was lazy, with the black hair tied up at the back of his head, pacing from time to time, looking lonely and lonely under the shadow of the lamp.

Aoki hurriedly ran over there, as if he couldn't bear to look at his lonely appearance, and said with some comfort: "City Lord Luo, my family master has returned." โ€

The man turned to them with a reassuring smile on his face.

Seeing the familiar face again, Hong Ling gritted her teeth and held back her eyes. I vaguely felt that the disgusting feeling brought by seeing this person was more unbearable than anything else.

Luo Chengyuan's nice voice sounded, and it exploded like thunder in Hong Ling's ears, and he just gossiped: "Brother Shao, why have you been out for so long, where have you been?" โ€

Seeing him standing here alone, as if he had been waiting for a long time, Shao Yisong felt guilty in his heart: "Brother Chengyuan...... Come on, hurry up and set the meal, everyone is hungry! โ€

After finishing the order, he took a seat: "Brother Chengyuan, today I saw the person who is enough to inherit my Shaw Clan's organ technique, and it is really a material that can be made!" โ€

Seeing him say it innocently, Hong Ling only felt that his brain was buzzing suddenly, and at this time, he only circled in his heart what Yuan Qinqin said: "I think it's a big reason why you can't succeed: Your lord's city lord is a pig teammate." โ€
