Yu Shu didn't go to Qiu Kwai Fang the next day, yesterday the officers and soldiers arrested dozens of people, including two Yi Shi, who were also ruthlessly imprisoned, and she was released in advance, although Xue Rui did not give a special explanation, but she knew to avoid the limelight.

It's not that there's nothing to do at home, after this emergency, Yu Shu has a sense of crisis again, and in the past two days, he has recalculated the birth dates of Yu Xiaoxiu and Xia Mingming, and made a list of the big and small events to be prevented next month, and then there are relatives and friends who are far away in Yiyang, such as Zhao Hui, Pei Jing, and her cheap mother, although they are separated from the north and south, it can't be of much use, so she knows it in her heart.

After finishing these, Yu Shu felt that he almost had to go to Qiu Kwai Fong to inquire about the rumors, and to see that things had passed, he would come out to set up a stall again, Xia Ming didn't have to take the test for Dayan, but they still had to live their lives, and the money still had to be spent.

Xia Mingming's mood was not high in the past two days, and she was bored in the room all day, and Yu Shu didn't mention asking her to go to the hospital to write a letter to contact her family for a while.

At dinner in the evening, Yu Shu mentioned that he was going out tomorrow, and Yu Xiaoxiu made the first request: "I'll accompany you." ”

Yu Shu knew that if she didn't take him, the child was going to make trouble, so she agreed, anyway, she didn't go out to set up a stall, and she could rush back to cook at noon.

After the meal, Yu Xiaoxiu went outside to fetch water, Xia Mingming helped wipe the table, Yu Shu was squatting in the kitchen to wash, and he was carrying an oil lamp on the stove, barely able to see clearly whether he was holding a bowl or a saucer.

Hearing the movement behind him, Yu Shu turned his head and saw Jingchen standing at the door of the kitchen, "What's the matter?" ”

Jingchen shook his head and raised his hand to signal her to be busy first, and wait for her to finish.

Yu Shu sped up his movements, washed the dishes and chopsticks in the wooden basin twice, wiped them clean and placed them in the cupboard. Unapron off, she picked up the lampstand. led him into the big house to look for pen and paper, Xia Mingming glanced at the two of them and twisted the rag in his hand.

In front of the desk, Yu Shu took out a piece of paper and handed it to Jing Chen, pondered it a few times in the inkstone, let him dip it in ink, and when he finished writing, he came up to look at it, and saw that it was written on the paper:

'Your sword. Can you show me. ’

"Sword?" Yu Shu paused, "You mean that rusty handful, right?" ”

Jingchen nodded.

"You wait," Yu Shu didn't ask him what he wanted the sword for, and turned around to rummage through the wardrobe. After settling in the capital. She put away the rusty ancient sword and locked it in the cabinet, and she was busy with a headache for a while. I didn't bother to study whether it was a real antique.

Finding the rusty sword at the bottom of the wardrobe, Yu Shu unwrapped the strip of cloth wrapped on it and handed it to Jing Chen, "Huh." ”

As soon as Yu Shu took the sword out, Jinbao, who was squatting at the foot of the bed and napping after eating, stood up vigilantly, and the mustache on the tip of his nose trembled. Nested back again.

Jingchen took it, and his fingers stroked over the rusty sword. He closed his eyes, trying to recall the familiarity of that night on the boat, when he blocked the bandit's weapon.

Yu Shu watched Jing Chen's movements, thinking that he was thinking of something, so he didn't bother, so he stood aside to accompany him, and after a long time, he saw Jing Chen open his eyes and stare at the sword in his hand, as if he wanted to see a hole in it.

"Do you remember something?" Yu Shu said cautiously.

Jingchen shook his head, walked to the table with the sword, and wrote on the paper, "Have I used this sword before?" ’

When he speaks of before, he is referring to the events before the amnesia.

"No," Yu Shu replied, seeing that Jingchen looked confused, and said, "But you've seen this sword before." ”

Jingchen's eyes lit up, Yu Shu scratched his neck, and said: "Actually, this sword was not mine, I didn't mention it to you, the two of us know each other because you saved me, just outside Yiyang City, I was captured by a group of demons to open the altar to sacrifice this sword, and then the group of people was arrested by the government, and I saw that this sword had no owner, so I secretly took it." ”

Jingchen didn't care that this sword was from Yu Shushun, he couldn't remember anything about this sword, but on the boat, he did have a sense of familiarity, so he didn't know if it was because of this sword.

'How long will this sword lend me?' ’

Yu Shu saw that Jing Chen was very interested in this rusty sword, and felt that this thing was also put away, and it couldn't make money, so it would be good to help him remember something, so he said to Jing Chen generously:

"Take it."

Jing Chen smiled back, Yu Shu suddenly felt like a spring breeze, and secretly said that such a beautiful character of Zhong Lingyu was placed at home as a scene, which was more luxurious than those famous calligraphy and paintings.

Bringing Jingchen to the door of the house, Yu Shu turned his head and sneered at Xia Mingming, who was still pretending to wipe the table: "If you wipe it again, the table will molt." ”

Xia Mingming turned his head in embarrassment, "I didn't overhear you." ”

What is this called, don't admit yourself.

Yu Shu walked over and sat down at the table, crossed his arms with his hands, stared at her a few times, and saw that she had lost her soul two days ago, before he asked:

"When are you going to go home?"

Xia Mingming's shoulders shook and he lowered his head: "Are you so anxious to let me go?" ”

Yu Shu said unceremoniously: "You don't take the Da Yan exam, why are you staying here, go home early to be your eldest lady and live your good life." You have been out for so long, don't you want to think about your family, how worried they should be about you, your father, your mother, don't you want them? ”

Xia Mingming was a little moved, pulling the dirty rag, and whispered, "Wait a few more days, okay?" ”

Yu Shu sighed, knowing that she was procrastinating, "You can do it yourself, and talk to me when you want to leave." ”

Xia Mingming nodded hurriedly, sat down next to Yu Shu, rolled his eyes and asked, "By the way, who was the person who sent you back the night before yesterday?" ”

Yu Shu stretched out his hand to hook the teapot and pour water, and replied casually: "A friend." ”

"Friends?" Xia Mingming leaned closer to her, "Where did you meet a friend, can I get you out of the cell, haven't you been to the capital before, how can you meet someone here?" ”

She wasn't in the mood to inquire two days ago, looking back at it now, she was curious, Yu Shu didn't talk much about herself, in Xia Mingming's eyes, Yu Shu's origin is quite mysterious, not only does she know the orthodox six tricks, she has two brushes to do anything, she is clearly a woman, but she is smarter and more capable than men, and now she has a friend, who seems to be very capable.

Yu Shu turned his head to look at Xia Mingming, who was gossiping, his palms were itchy, so he raised his hand to pinch her soft face and twisted it left and right, smiling without smiling:

"I want you to be nosy, hurry up and wash up and go to bed, tomorrow morning Xiao Xiu and I will go out, and you will take both of our dirty clothes to wash."

After saying that, he threw her away, ignored her and covered her face and screamed, turned back to the house, and closed the door with a click.

***

Early the next morning, Yu Xiaoxiu got up earlier than Yu Shu, because he was excited to go out with Yu Shu, he almost didn't sleep much last night, but being young is good, and he won't be able to get up the next day because he didn't sleep well overnight.

After simply eating early, Yu Shu led Yu Xiaoxiu out of the door.

Xu was arrested because of the gambling gathering of everyone in Chunxianglou the day before yesterday, and the autumn guifang in the day was lively, hiding a strange atmosphere, Yu Shu walked on the street, always felt that there were whispers everywhere, people turned their heads to ear, and they didn't know what Lu Dao was talking about.

Yu Shu went to the Mingyuan Gambling House first, and saw the seal on the door of the gambling house across the street, his eyelids jumped, and he asked passers-by a few words, knowing that a few officers and soldiers came in the afternoon to seal the gambling house and arrested a few people.

Yu Shu sighed a few words with passers-by, and then walked back to the tavern where she had set up a stall for a long time, and asked Yu Xiaoxiu to wait outside, and went in to talk to Shopkeeper Sun.

Coincidentally, the shopkeeper was not here today, and there were two guys running in the store, one of whom recognized Yu Shulai, so he put a rag strip on his shoulder and stepped forward to talk:

"Isn't this the rest of my life, the shopkeeper talked about you yesterday, and I haven't seen you come out to set up a stall for a few days, is it because the business is not good, and I don't plan to do it."

Yu Shu said with a smile: "How can it, I didn't come here two days ago, why don't I come here today to take a look, I heard that there was an incident in this city, and the little second brother has heard about it?" ”

The little second brother turned his head to look at the two guests drinking by the window, beckoned to Yu Shu, and led her to the counter to speak.

"But isn't it, let me tell you, it's okay if you haven't been here for the past two days, people are being arrested everywhere on the street, it is said that the Evergreen Gang is privately gathering people to gamble and is easy to be investigated by the government, and the list was posted on the street sign yesterday afternoon, you haven't seen it yet." I heard from the shopkeeper that the court issued an order to strictly deal with gambling in the south of the city, and all the customers who participated in gambling were arrested and imprisoned for a few days, and the most important thing was to leave a record in the government and never be allowed to take the examination of Dayan. ”

Yu Shu inhaled and said, "It's so serious." ”

"But isn't it," the little second brother secretly pouted, and whispered: "There is nothing wrong with gambling in the north of the city, and we are not allowed to gamble in the south of the city. ”

Yu Shu didn't meet him, just smiled, chatted with him, and then said goodbye: "Thank you little second brother for telling me, when the shopkeeper comes, please help me bring a message, and I will go back." ”

"Why don't you stay for a drink?"

"Another day." Yu Shu was shy, how could he waste money on wine.

The little second brother was about to go back to work, when he touched his head and remembered something again, he stopped Yu Shu, who was walking to the door: "Eh, for the rest of your life, you go slowly." ”

Yu Shu turned around, "What's wrong?" ”

The second brother stepped forward and said, "I almost forgot, you haven't been here for the past two days, and someone has come to our tavern to ask twice." ”

Hearing this, Yu Shu's first thought was Cao Zixin, and just as he was about to ask him in detail, he saw the little second brother stretch out his hand and point behind her and said:

"Just said that I came, na, for the rest of my life, this person is looking for you."

Yu Shu was stunned for a moment, turned her face, but saw a man with an excited face standing at the door, with a bean-sized mole on the corner of his mouth, which was a little familiar, but not the person she thought he was.

"Mr. Yu, I'm looking for you!"

Yu Shu was on the road in Qiu Kwai Fang, looking at hundreds of faces a day, and he couldn't remember who this person was for a while, so he said suspiciously: "Are you?" ”

"It's me, Mr. Yu forgot, that day you showed me the way to wealth and tied me with a red rope."

The strong man at the door stretched out his left hand as he spoke, and rolled up his sleeve to reveal the red rope on his wrist that was a little faded.

"Oh," Yu Shu remembered suddenly, and stretched out his finger, "It's you." ”

It was the first customer she counted on the day she opened.
