Chapter 342: Bamboo Apricot and Saucer
Xu Zigui knew that he was wrong, and he had been hiding behind Xu Ziyu since he saw Mo Ziyuan, showing his little head from time to time to glance at Mo Ziyuan, and when he saw Mo Ziyuan looking at himself, he retracted his head.
Mo Ziyuan didn't bother to pay attention to her small actions, and after explaining to Xu Ziyu, he strode in front of Xu Ziyu and stretched out his hand to pull out the person behind him, sneered, and said to Xu Ziyu: "There is something to do, I will leave it to you here." ”
Xu Ziyu naturally could only nod and look helpless when he looked at Xu Zigui, but in Xu Zigui's eyes, he looked more like a gloating look.
glared at Xu Ziyu fiercely, Xu Zigui looked at Mo Ziyuan flatteringly, and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, I met here." ”
Mo Ziyuan sneered, seeing Xu Zigui's dog-legged appearance, he almost couldn't hold back his laughter, glared at Xu Zigui hatefully, ignored her, picked her up and walked out, walked to the carriage, and threw Xu Zigui into the carriage as soon as he used his strength, and he commanded Jin Dong and got into the carriage.
Xu Zigui saw that Mo Ziyuan got into the carriage and didn't speak or look at himself, as if he didn't have such a person, he was uncomfortable, so he had to come to Mo Ziyuan's side and smirked: "A-Yuan, why did you come out?" Are you out to pick me up? I'm so touched, A-Yuan, you're so considerate......"
It's just that before he finished speaking, he was stopped by Mo Ziyuan's eyes. Xu Zigui looked at Mo Ziyuan pitifully with a flat mouth: "I just came out to find something......
The small voice formed a strong contrast with the previous bracket noise, and it seemed particularly aggrieved. In rhetorical terms, this is called foiling, well, it can also be said to be the desire to promote and suppress. It is especially effective for dealing with people like Mo Ziyuan, who are cold on the outside and hot on the inside.
Sure enough, Mo Ziyuan's face was not as cold as before, and his eyes eased a lot, Xu Zigui took Mo Ziyuan's hand and began to be coquettish: "Actually, as soon as I left the palace, I wanted to go to the yamen to find my brother, but I changed my clothes and met Di'er, which disrupted the plan." ”
As he spoke, he shook Mo Ziyuan's arm and said flatteringly: "Don't worry, I won't put myself in danger." ”
After that, he also winked at Mo Ziyuan, and boasted with a smile: "I'm so smart, how can I be fooled, I'm prepared." ”
"Say!" Mo Ziyuan glared at Xu Zigui, and finally couldn't bear to be angry with her for too long, sighed and rubbed her head, and said: "Let's not talk about what will happen if someone knows about leaving the palace without permission, let's just talk about the matter of Saucer, if you are not careful, you will fall into the trap they dug." ”
After that, he didn't reprimand Xu Zigui anymore, but just sighed: "That's it, if you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger, it's finally fine." ”
So, don't make a fuss about something that hasn't happened.
Xu Zigui naturally could hear Mo Ziyuan's voice, spoiled Mo Ziyuan and smiled sweetly, opened the curtain and looked, seeing that it was not going in the direction of the palace, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and asked with a smile: "Where are we going?" ”
"Didn't you leave the palace just to check Zhuxing," Mo Ziyuan smiled and rubbed Xu Zigui's little head, and said with a smile: "Since I was delayed by Di'er, I'm fine now, just accompany you." ”
Xu Zigui laughed at this time, threw himself on Mo Ziyuan, and said with a smile: "I know that you are the best, much more reliable than my brother." ”
After that, he leaned his head on Mo Ziyuan, looking extremely enjoyable.
Mo Ziyuan looked at Xu Zigui's small appearance with a smile, pinched Xu Zigui's nose with a smile, and didn't speak again.
The two didn't say anything all the way, so quietly all the way to the destination.
Mo Ziyuan got out of the car first, and then helped Xu Zigui out of the carriage, and the two observed the surrounding soil cultivation houses for a while, Xu Zigui frowned slightly: "It seems to be the fourth family in the village, let's go and see it first." ”
Mo Ziyuan nodded, frowned slightly, and asked with some unease: "Did Yuexi find out clearly or did Zhu Xing say it himself?" ”
"Naturally, Yuexi inquired clearly," Xu Zigui glanced at Mo Ziyuan, looked at Mo Ziyuan with an idiot expression, and said, "How could I believe Zhu Xing's words." ”
Mo Ziyuan was relieved, nodded, and took Xu Zigui's hand and walked inside: "Have you thought about what identity you met?" ”
Xu Zigui nodded, glanced at the hand that was clasped with Mo Ziyuan's ten fingers, and struggled slightly: "You let go of me, it's really not good for us two big men to be like this." ”
Well, Mo Ziyuan ignored that Xu Zigui was still wearing men's clothes.
After glancing at Xu Zigui, Mo Ziyuan asked, "So you want to propose?" ”
Well, Mo Ziyuan also knows Xu Zigui too well, Xu Zigui's action, Mo Ziyuan knows what Xu Zigui wants to do.
Xu Zigui nodded, and said flatly: "Ordinary people go to the next people's house to give them a long face, but my identity is really special, which princess have you seen in the past dynasties who has personally been to the palace people's house?" Besides, if I still have some reasons for Lan Xiang, and Zhu Xing is just a third-class sprinkler and sweeper, what should I do? Besides, Zhu Xing's family knows that Zhu Xing works in the palace, so I can't pretend to be the master of the ordinary family and say that it is the master of Zhu Xing, right? ”
Mo Ziyuan nodded, but it was also the reason Xu Zigui said, but if she went in the name of proposing...... So what did he follow?
Mo Ziyuan looked at Xu Zigui suspiciously, thinking that he could see the answer in her eyes. Xu Zigui gave Mo Ziyuan a white eye, and gloated: "You came with me, I didn't invite you." ”
"Little white-eyed wolf," Mo Ziyuan glared at Xu Zigui, patted Xu Zigui's head, and laughed angrily: "Who am I doing this for!" ”
Xu Zigui ignored him, only stuck out his tongue at him, pointed to the house in front of him, and said with a smile: "It's here." ”
Only then did Mo Ziyuan let go of Xu Zigui, raised his chin and motioned for Xu Zigui to come over and knock on the door.
Xu Zigui nodded, walked two steps to the door, knocked softly a few times, saw that no one answered, thought that his movements were too light, and the people in the house couldn't hear it, so he knocked on it again, but still no one came to open the door, Xu Zigui frowned, and increased his strength, but there was still no movement, but knocked out the neighbors on the side.
"This son, don't knock, there's no one in there."
"No one?" Xu Zigui was shocked, frowned slightly, saluted his neighbor with a fist, and said with a smile: "This is Zhao Xinghua's home?" ”
Zhao Xinghua is bamboo apricot. Because Dejieyu disliked the apricot blossoms too earthy, and because she had the word "apricot" in her name, Dejieyu named her as Zhuxing.
The neighbor nodded and asked, "What did Childe say about the girl who worked in the palace?" It was her home. ”
"Then how can there be no one?" Xu Zigui frowned, hugged his fist at the neighbor again, and said with a smile: "Niangniang and I married Zhu Xing, Xiao Sheng wanted to come to meet Zhu Xing's family, and I hope that the eldest brother will make it convenient and inform Xiao Sheng, this Zhu Xing's family has moved away?" ”
"The palace lady gave Zhu Xing a marriage?" The man's expression was obviously very surprised, and then he changed to an inexplicable sadness, and sighed: "Zhu Xing is a blessing, but little brother, I don't think you can see Zhu Xing's family." ”
After that, he returned Xu Zigui and Mo Ziyuan to his house and beckoned: "If the two sons don't dislike it, come to the cold house to sit and have a cup of tea first." ”
Xu Zigui and Mo Ziyuan glanced at each other, and saw Mo Ziyuan nodding to himself, so he nodded with a smile and said gratefully: "That little student first thanked the eldest brother for his hospitality." ”
After that, he and Mo Ziyuan followed the neighbors into the house.
Xu Zigui smiled and said, "Dare to ask your eldest brother's surname?" ”
"Your surname is Li, and your single name is a Chinese character."
Li Zhong is also a bold person, introduced himself with a smile, and brought tea to the two of them before asking, "This little brother, what is your surname?" ”
Xu Zigui learned from Li Zhong's appearance, and also laughed a few times, and said: "Your surname is Qin, this is my eldest brother." ”
As he spoke, he pointed at Mo Ziyuan, and said with a smile: "I wanted to accompany me to meet Zhu Xing's family, but I didn't want to pounce." ”
After that, as if inadvertently, he asked: "Brother Li, you just said that there is no one in Zhuxing's family?" But they all moved away? Or did you go out to procure? ”
Who knows, Xu Zigui asked, but Li Zhong sighed heavily: "It's evil." ”
Xu Zigui and Mo Ziyuan glanced at each other, Xu Zigui hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, and asked, "What do you say?" ”
That Li Zhong stopped talking, just shook his head: "I can't say anything about other people's family affairs, little brother Qin, don't embarrass me." ”
Xu Zigui was helpless, glanced at Mo Ziyuan as if asking for help, and asked Mo Ziyuan what to do.
Mo Ziyuan sighed, gave Xu Zigui a slightly calm look, and then said lightly, "This brother doesn't know anything, because it was the mother's marriage, my brother was very concerned, and he came to see Zhu Xing's family, and he was bound to call back to his mother when he went back, but he didn't see it at this time, and he didn't know where he went, not to mention that it was not good to explain to Niangniang, even if it was with Zhu Xing, my brother is not easy to explain to other girls, right?" ”
Mo Ziyuan was a mother, and the helplessness in his tone was heard in Li Zhong's ears, and he also felt that Xu Zigui was compelled to do so, so he sighed and said: "It's not something that can't be said, it's just that gossiping about other people's family affairs is always bad, but since it is the special situation of Little Brother Qin, I'll just talk to you." ”
After that, he picked up the tea bowl on the table and put saliva in his mouth, and there was a little pity in his eyes: "It's still what happened in the past two days, since Xinghua's grandfather died, this family has never been calmed." Xinghua's girl still has a job in the palace, and fortunately, the palace lady favors such a good person as Brother Qin, but she pities her younger brother, the child is only six years old this year, but now his whereabouts are unknown......"
As he spoke, he sighed heavily and said to Xu Zigui: "Little brother, if I say something outside, don't think I'm talking too much." ”
Xu Zigui nodded hurriedly and said, "Brother Li has seen the outside, just say something." ”
Li Zhong sighed heavily and said, "Xinghua doesn't know that her brother is lost...... If you find that child, you bother to follow the apricot blossom to raise the child, if you really don't want to, send the child back, and I will raise it. ”
Xu Zigui hurriedly said: "Brother Li is serious, that is Zhu Xing's younger brother is my younger brother, and Zhu Xing and I will definitely raise him." ”
After that, he asked again: "It's just that the younger brother has something to understand, when he was in the palace, he didn't hear of Zhu Xing having no father and no mother...... How to ......"
Why does Zhu Xing's younger brother want to live with his grandfather, and his whereabouts are unknown after his grandfather leaves?
Li Zhong sighed again and said: "The family used to be considered complete, but since the death of the old man next door, everything has changed. ”
There was some pity and reluctance in his tone, thinking that the so-called old man next door should be a very good person.
Xu Zigui asked, "Did something happen?" ”
Li Zhong nodded and sighed: "Within a week of the old man's death, I don't know how, Xinghua's mother died suddenly, and Xinghua's father didn't know her whereabouts." Xinghua her mother died suddenly, and she didn't know what happened overnight, she had been fine, so she went overnight, and Xinghua's father was missing, and it was rumored again in the village, saying that Xinghua and her mother had a man outside, and Xinghua's father was angry, and he killed Xinghua and her mother, and then ran away. ”
After that, as if he was angry, he slapped the table and said angrily: "This is simply a fart, since their family came to this village in the past 20 years, I have had the most contact with their family, and I understand the temperament of Xinghua and her mother, Xinghua and her mother have always been a person, and she has never been out of this Zhuangzi in her life, it is nonsense to say that stealing people, who does she steal!" Besides, Xinghua her father, has always been an honest person, as enthusiastic as his father, and knows some medical skills, on weekdays, there is a headache and brain fever in the village, all go to his house to see, the powerful can't go, Xinghua her grandfather and her father are personally at home to see, never received a penny, honest family, now it has become a joke for this group of people after dinner! ”
As he spoke, he drooped his chest in pain. Xu Zigui was startled when he heard "My mother is dead and my father ran away", glanced at Mo Ziyuan, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Li, what is the name of the child next door?" ”
Although Li Zhong didn't know why Xu Zigui was suddenly so excited, he also felt that since Xu Zigui wanted to find that child, he had to know what the child's name was first, so he didn't doubt that he said: "His name is Zhao An, and we all call him by his nickname Saucer on weekdays." ”
As soon as Li Zhong's words came out, even if he was as calm as Mo Ziyuan, a trace of shock flashed in his eyes. glanced at Xu Zigui and nodded slightly to Xu Zigui, Xu Zigui said: "Brother Li, I won't tell you, I saw that kid in Di'er at the corner of the street......"
Before he finished speaking, Li Zhong stood up suddenly, grabbed Xu Zigui's shoulders excitedly and asked, "Have you seen it?" Where is he now? ”
The expression was very excited, so that it didn't look like he had lost someone else's child, but it looked like he had lost his own child. (To be continued.) )
