Chapter 274: Thrilling
Tan Debao and San Lang are back!
Qiduo's family got up almost at the same time, pulled their legs and ran out.
These days, they have not heard from them, but they are about to die of the Tan family, and they are looking for people to inquire around.
Qiduo also went to Zheng Wanru and asked her to ask Shen Huairen about the news of the journey from Tonglin County to Yicheng Mansion to see if anything bad happened.
Shen Huairen helped them inquire around, but did not hear any accidents or vicious incidents along the way.
Hearing him say this, everyone's hearts calmed down a little, thinking that maybe the letter they brought back was lost, or that the letter was delayed on the way because of other things.
But it was only a little more settled, whether it was Old Man Tan and their side, or the Qiduo family, they were still anxiously waiting for their news.
Even every time I go back to Luhuapo, whether it is Tang Hu or the long-term workers, everyone asks when Tan Debao will come back.
Everyone cared about them, and now that they heard that they were back, how could they not be excited.
"Ju, where are your fourth uncle and third brother?" Qiduo's family rushed to the door, but they didn't see Tan Debao, Tan Dejin asked urgently.
"Dad, it was Sister Sizao who came to say, and the fourth uncle is all at Grandpa's." Liuju replied.
Tan Dejin nodded and rushed towards the gate of the courtyard like a gust of wind.
Xu's, Qiduo, and Erxia followed closely behind, Liuju's mouth opened, and what else did they want to say, everyone had already gone away.
Liuju had no choice but to close the door of the house, followed behind them, and also trotted towards the front yard of the Tan family.
As soon as Qiduo and the others entered the Tan family's compound, they heard the sound of commotion coming from the upper room.
Approaching the upper room, I heard Tan Debao's long-lost voice talking. The heart of the Qiduo family completely fell.
Finally, he came back safely.
It doesn't matter whether you inquire about the news of the old lady or not. As long as you come back safely!
"Fourth. Saburo! While the people were still outside the door, Tan Dejin shouted loudly and strode into the upper room in a few strides.
"Big brother."
"Uncle."
The voices of Tan Debao and San Lang were immediately heard in the room.
The voice was slightly hoarse.
Maybe it's because the cars and horses are tired.
Xu took Qiduo and three sisters into the upper room, and greeted Tan Debao and San Lang.
Tan Debao's uncle and nephew are tired on their faces, and they are obviously darker and thinner than when they left, Tan Debao is not white, and he can't see it obviously, especially San Lang. The young man who was originally white and pure has now become a man of wheat.
Although Saburo is dark, compared with before, he is a little less delicate and more masculine, and he is more manly than before.
"Boss, third, call your two families over, just let the fourth and San Lang talk about what happened outside these days." After the greetings, everyone sat down, and Mr. Tan's words made everyone focus on the matter of the old lady.
Old Man Tan said again. "These days, the fourth and third children are really hard. You will know by the countenances and the appearance of the two of them. They entered the upper room with their front feet, and I immediately called you over, and even I don't know what they could hear now. Fourth, let's talk about it. ”
Look at Debao Tehman.
Tan Debao nodded, "Daddy, eldest brother and sister-in-law, third brother and third sister-in-law, everyone has been disappointed, although San Lang and I have been out of the country these days, not only have we not heard the news of the old lady and the empress dowager, but we almost can't come back." ”
"Ah, what's going on?" As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room gasped.
There are indeed many unknown dangers when going out, but when you really hear Tan Debao say it, everyone is not only surprised, but also worried and afraid.
Tan Debao looked at San Lang, "San Lang, let's talk about it." ”
He knew that his mouth was not as good as Saburo's neatness, and he was afraid that he would not be able to speak clearly.
Saburo nodded yes, and then talked about what he had been through outside these days.
On the third day after the two of them got on the boat, San Lang vomited and diarrhea due to physical discomfort, and Tan Debao took him to get off the boat halfway to see a doctor.
It took almost five days for Saburo to recover, and the doctor said that the reason why he was unwell was because he reacted to the water on the boat.
So, for the sake of San Lang, Tan Debao decided that the two of them would go to Yicheng Mansion by land.
After taking the land route, the road was peaceful, San Lang had no more physical problems, and he was getting closer and closer to Yicheng Mansion.
One day, when they passed by Anshan County, near Yicheng Province, they saw a seven or eight-year-old child kneeling there begging, and an even younger child lying on the ground with sores on both legs.
Most of the onlookers looked at the pointers, but no one helped, so Saburo was moved by compassion.
But Tan Debao told him not to meddle in things, saying that it might be a lie.
San Lang didn't listen, in fact, he despised Tan Debao a little, thinking that he was too cold-blooded, and he didn't save him when he saw such a poor person. Taking advantage of Tan Debao's inattention, he quietly ran and threw a tael of silver to the child, and then left happily.
When the two of them reached a barren mountain and wild place, a group of vicious thieves suddenly jumped out and ransacked their silver.
The other party is outnumbered, and they also have weapons such as knives and sticks, if it weren't for Tan Debao's good skills, the two of them would have lost more than silver, I'm afraid it would have been fatal.
Inevitably, both of them hung up their lottery.
Later, when they returned to Ansan County, they learned that the gang of people in Ludao specially used children to beg and win everyone's sympathy, and when someone gave money to show their wealth, the thieves hidden in the surrounding area would keep an eye on them all the way, looking for opportunities to rob the money.
Fortunately, there are one hundred taels of silver tickets given by Tan Dejin, otherwise the two of them would have to ask for food all the way back.
At that time, Xu sewed the silver ticket on the inside of Tan Debao's shirt, which was very secret, so it was not snatched by thieves.
happened to meet a few businessmen from Yicheng Mansion in Anshan County, Tan Debao asked them about the situation of the old aunt's family, but they didn't hear about it, saying that this was a big deal, and if it was really rehabilitated, how could they not know the way.
Tan Debao and San Lang had to return the same way, there were constant turmoil along the way, where did they have the heart to write a letter back, it should be said that they were very anxious at the time, and they didn't think about it.
"Alas. I used to think I was very capable. Better than everyone else. After this time, I realized that I was really bad, if it weren't for me, my fourth uncle and I wouldn't have taken the land route, even if I had gone by land, if I had listened to the fourth uncle's persuasion, I wouldn't have attracted those thieves. The silver will not be lost, and the fourth uncle will not be injured.
From now on, I will be a down-to-earth person, listen to the opinions of my elders and others, and will no longer insist on going my own way. Grandparents, punish me. After San Lang finished saying what had happened, he knelt down to Old Man Tan and his wife.
Listening to San Lang say that after that, Qiduo and they all pinched a cold sweat, it was really dangerous, if those villains were a little stronger. Or maybe the fourth uncle is weaker, where can I hear them now.
Seven Duo didn't expect a plot that was previously only seen on TV. It's really happening to my fourth uncle now, it's incredible.
These thieves are so rampant, why don't the government care?
Alas, the fourth uncle, they can come back safely, what a blessing!
For San Lang, Qiduo can't say that he is stupid, let alone blame him, where would ordinary people think that someone would use the child to do bad things, he went to give alms, indicating that he was kind.
If it were her, maybe she would have thrown a few copper plates or even more, and they would be pitiful.
This incident reminded her that when she wants to do something in the future, she has to think twice, not on the spur of the moment.
Tan Debao hurriedly pulled San Lang up, "Silly boy, it's good that you can figure out these truths, and our hardships along the way have not been in vain." Besides, you were also well-intentioned when you did that, and I blame you for it, you haven't been out of the house, you have experienced few things, and these thieves are really hateful, using children as a guise, ordinary people will be fooled. If I had said a few more words, you might not have given them alms. Arise, and a man has gold under his knees, and how can he kneel when he has nothing to do? ”
Tan Debao didn't let San Lang give alms at that time, not because he was reluctant to give the two handfuls of silver, but he felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it, it was just an intuition.
Later, when he heard others say that, he suddenly realized that there were two or three people in the crowd who were very suspicious, and he didn't think too much about it at the time, if he had thought of this stubble earlier, and said a few more words, he would not have been kind and ran to give alms.
He is an elder and should take care of San Lang, but if something happens, he has to bear this responsibility himself, how can he blame a junior.
Zhao scolded San Lang with some hatred, "You dead child, you should kneel, greet you again and again when you leave, let you listen to the words of the fourth uncle, you promised to do well, and forgot about this turn."
Otherwise, where can you lose the silver, where can you get hurt, and if you are injured, you will have to spend silver, a loser's thing. ”
Thinking that Bai Huahua's twenty taels of silver were lost, her heart really hurt like a knife.
Master Tan glared at her fiercely, "Old woman, okay, it's fortunate that people don't have trouble, is silver important, or people are important." ”
Zhao swallowed his saliva and argued, "Isn't this my intention to educate him to pay attention next time, if he doesn't teach him a lesson, where will he have a memory." ”
Qiduo sighed on the side, I don't know when Zhao can speak and act like a normal person.
"Fourth uncle, third brother, are your injuries okay? If it's not good, don't hide it, let's find a doctor to treat it as soon as possible. Qiduo stepped forward and cared from the bottom of his heart.
Her words also reminded Old Man Tan, personally helped San Lang up, and also asked him and Tan Debao if they were injured.
Tan Debao and San Lang both said that their injuries were healed.
"No, let's go to Gongzi Wen to help take a look." Tan Dejin said that he was not at ease, worried that Tan Debao would tell lies.
Qiduo didn't agree, and didn't want to find Wen Xiuyi.
It was still Zhao who spoke, saying that he would first find Tulangzhong from the next village to come over to check their pulse, and then go to the county if there was anything.
This also makes sense, Tan Decai went to invite Langzhong, and Xu took Qiduo and them back to prepare meals and boil hot water, so that Tan Debao and San Lang could wash away the dust of their bodies.
Tulangzhong quickly came over and checked the pulse of the two, saying that his body was fine, but he had to rest more and couldn't do heavy work for the time being.
Seeing this, everyone was relieved.
When Tan Debao and San Lang arrived in the backyard, they saw a big charcoal basin placed at the gate of the courtyard, and the charcoal inside was burning vigorously.
"Fourth, San Lang, the two of you step over from the brazier and go to bad luck." Tan Dekin said, pointing to the brazier.
Although Tan Debao didn't believe it, he still felt warm, and stepped over the brazier with a smile, and San Lang also stepped over with a smile, saying that if the bad luck is removed, the wealth will come.
After taking a hot bath and eating the fragrant meals at home, Tan Debao and San Lang Qihu are still good at home, it is really good to be at home for a thousand days, and it is difficult to go out.
After eating, Tan Dejin naturally inevitably asked them about some things on the road.
When brothers reunite after a long absence, there is always something to say.
When the topic came to an end, San Lang suddenly asked, "Uncle, how did my house go to the third uncle's house?" (To be continued......)
