Chapter Thirty-Eight: Stealing Children
The little man stood stubbornly in front of the old man, looking at the person who walked in with a defensive expression, he only knew that he had to stay by Daddy's side and not allow others to hurt him.
The old man coughed dryly, stretched out his hand tremblingly, slowly grabbed Xiao Chu's hand, and tugged, Xiao Chu hurriedly turned his head, "Daddy." ”
"Xiao Chu, come to me." The old man whispered to Xiao Chu, but he didn't allow him to refuse.
Xiao Chu turned around, looked at Rong Wan and was still a little hesitant, but he heard Daddy behind him cough a few times, hurriedly walked to Daddy's side and squatted down, stretched out his little hand and patted Daddy's chest awkwardly, still looking at Rong Wan on the side from time to time.
Rong Wan stood there and looked at them, and the old man finally couldn't help but speak, "This Lang Jun, it's better to have something to say." ”
Rong Wan has been looking at them for a long time, the person known as Daddy, at first glance, the aging face, I thought it was a fifty-year-old man, but if I looked closely, although there were many wrinkles on the person's face, but looking at his hair color, his beard was still black, and even his body length was a little taller than that of ordinary old people.
Rong Wan paused, "Forgive me for offending, I don't know if my brother Gui Geng?" ”
When the old man saw Rong Wan's question, he was suddenly stunned, and when he understood, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, he looked like this now, no wonder, "There are eight in the thirty years of this Chinese New Year's Eve." ”
Rong Wan, to be sick like this, I think I've been sick for a long time!
Rong Wan put her eyes on Xiao Chu, and the man hurriedly hugged Xiao Chu tightly, "Please also ask Lang Jun to raise your noble hand." ”
They thought she would report to the police?
Also, when encountering such a situation, of course, people always think about the worst, "I wonder if you can tell me what happened to you?" Rong Wan looked at them and said, "Maybe I can help you." ”
The man naturally saw that Rong Wan was a kind-hearted person, and then looked at the green daisy star eyes, the skin was clear, and at first glance he knew that he was a lady.
Thinking about their current situation, gritting their teeth, and coming step by step, "We were originally from Xinghua Village outside the city gate, a few years ago, I and Xiao Chu's mother went to Beijing to buy things, but unexpectedly was washed away by a carriage, Xiao Chu's mother was gone, these two years I and Xiao Chu often went to Beijing to see, a while ago I unfortunately contracted a cold, and I wanted to save money without asking a doctor, and I fell ill on this street after delay, Xiao Chu alone could not take me back, just live in this temple, the last copper plate on the body two days ago was also used up, so today, there is such a thing. ”
"Why don't you go back to the village, dude?" Since the village is outside the city, it must not be far away.
The man hung his head, clearly reluctant to speak.
Xiao Chu hid beside him and raised his head to look at Rong Wan, and then lowered his head again.
Seeing that he didn't want to say it, Rong Wan didn't want to be embarrassed, so she turned to look at Bai Yao behind her.
Bai Yao took a step forward and handed the money bag she was carrying to Rong Wan.
She had not intended to buy anything to-day, so she had only two taels of silver in her purse, so she took it out and placed it in front of the two of them.
"I went out in a hurry today, let Xiao Chu ask you to ask for a doctor for these two taels of silver, and you can go back after seeing a doctor!"
Who knew that Xiao Chu picked up the silver, spread out his small palm, and handed it to Rong Wan, "Big brother." ”
Rong Wan looked at him, but he scratched his head embarrassedly, "The broken silver in the money bag just now is enough for me and Daddy to use for a while, and I don't need my eldest brother's silver." ”
Rong Wan didn't answer, but smiled and touched Xiao Chu's head, "If it is on weekdays, these broken silver are naturally enough, but your father is sick and wants to ask a doctor, then the broken silver designation is not enough." ”
This disease is no longer an ordinary wind and cold, and the flowers are naturally big.
Xiao Chu looked back at his father, and when he saw his father nodding, he carefully put away the silver and put it in his arms, and then raised his head to look at Rong Wan, "Big brother, this silver should be borrowed by me from the big brother, where is the big brother's mansion?" When Xiao Chu has the silver, he will return it to the eldest brother. ”
Two taels of silver, Rong Wan is just a kind-hearted person, and she has no intention of taking it back.
It's just that the young child in front of him has a stubborn look, and Rong Wan refuses and doesn't say it again.
"Dongcheng Luofu, just look for Feng Bo."
Xiao Chu grinned, "Thank you, big brother." ”
"So, I took my leave."
"Big brother, I'll send you." With that, Xiao Chu walked to Rong Wan's side and sent Rong Wan out of the temple.
Rong Wan turned around and glanced at Xiao Chu, "Remember to burn the money bag for a while, don't be caught." ”
Xiao Chu nodded, "I listen to my big brother." ”
Rong Wan took two steps forward and turned back, "The eldest husband stands up to the sky and the earth, and he wants to be above board, Xiao Chu, you have to remember that dignity is given by yourself, if you don't even want yourself, then no one will take it seriously." ”
After speaking, regardless of whether Xiao Chu understood it or not, Rong Wan also walked away.
The child's future creation is in his own hands.
Rong Wan and Bai Yao went back the same way, and they didn't slow down until they saw Feng Bo's carriage.
"Feng Bo, let's go!"
As soon as Rong Wan returned to Cuizhu Garden, Firefly Green greeted her.
"Lady, the streamer by Langjun's side has been here."
"Something?" Rong Wan asked, if it weren't for something, my brother wouldn't have sent Liuguang over.
Firefly shook her head, "I don't know. ”
Rong Wan looked at the sky, there was still some time before sunset, "When will you come?" ”
"About half an hour."
It's still early, so it's better to take a look, I'm afraid there's something urgent.
When Rong Wan arrived at Ganlin Courtyard, she learned that her brother was not there, and said that she had gone to the main courtyard an hour ago, and she had never come back or gone out during this period.
Rong Wan paused, isn't it still in the main courtyard at this time!
Thinking about it this time, he had already walked towards the main courtyard, and when he entered the main courtyard, whether it was the servant guarding the door or the maidservant who sprinkled the sweeping, they all lowered their heads at this time, and worked diligently.
Ying Tao was guarding outside the door, Rong Wan looked at her, and Ying Tao walked to her lightly, afraid of causing any trouble.
"Lady."
"Brother is inside?" Rong Wan asked.
"Lang Jun is here, and he has been trained by his wife for a while."
Trained?
"Do you know why?"
Ying Tao lowered her head, "The maid only heard a sentence when Lang Jun first entered, Lang Jun seemed to be going to learn to do business, and then the maid was kicked out." ”
Sure enough, my brother is also anxious, the palace test has just failed, and he wants to go into business, so it's strange not to make his mother angry, but he has said everything, can he go back to this? That's it, I can only think of countermeasures.
"Now my mother's anger is gone?" It's been an hour.
Ying Tao shook her head, "No." ”
It seems that the mother is really angry this time, but since the brother ordered the streamer to come and call her before he went, he must have wanted her to come over and say a few good words.
It's just that she can't compare to her father, if only her father was there.
But seeing that the day is still white, my father will not come back until sunset, and if my brother is left alone in the house, I may be angry with my mother again.
Rong Wan sighed and walked towards the house step by step.
"Mother, Awan is here."
Rong Wan pushed open the door, Qi was sitting, his face was flushed with anger, but Luo Jingyu was kneeling on the side, his face was extremely strong, it seemed that this anger was too big.
