"My uncle said that." "But don't blame him, he accidentally slipped out, and I'll find out." ”

"I told him again and again, but I didn't expect him to be so unreliable." Mrs. Shen's face sank like water, "He clearly knows that I am very taboo about family affairs, but he casually lets others know, how can it be seen that he is not a reliable person at all!" ”

"Auntie, aunt......"

Seeing Mrs. Shen really angry this summer, she was a little panicked.

"Like him, who treats my family background as an after-dinner conversation, how can I take him to my father's grave......

"Auntie, I was wrong, I was wrong, it wasn't my uncle who said it, it's really not, don't wronged him." This summer hurriedly explained, "Regarding your family background, my uncle didn't mention a word, and his mouth was tight." ”

"If it's not him, who else would it be?"

Under her gaze, this summer swallowed with difficulty before saying, "You have always known that I am an official family...... Since the Peach Blossom Forest, I have secretly asked people to investigate this matter, I'm sorry Auntie, I'm just curious, and I don't mean to harm you. ”

Mrs. Shen didn't relax for a moment, and then asked: "I know that you are an official family, and I also know that you are a small catcher of the six gates, and the person you can send is probably only Yang Yue alone, not to mention, you don't even have the authority to see some sealed files." You tell me, how do you check? ”

"That...... Money can be channeled. ”

This summer, he accompanied the smiling face, and secretly made up his mind: he couldn't confess Lu Yi even if he was killed.

"You don't have one or two pieces of broken silver all over your body, what kind of god can you know?" Mrs. Shen looked sideways at her.

“…… You can pay on credit, this is the rule of our six doors, you don't understand. This summer's answer was a little difficult, and he felt that he couldn't be asked like this anymore, "By the way, Yang Yue asked me to look at the porridge on the stove, I must have pounced, I almost forgot, I'll go and see ...... first"

With that, she ran away.

Mrs. Shen listened to her footsteps in the room, and couldn't help but smile: "This kid is still very protective of Lord Lu, and he refuses to say it." ”

In fact, she didn't know that this matter had been sealed for many years, and in the details, in addition to the Jinyi Guard, who was good at collecting news, where could others find out. Among their group, only Lu Yi could easily find out her details. Fortunately, he had no ill intentions, whether it was out of sympathy for her background or out of gratitude, he had no intention of revealing her background. Mrs. Shen knows this.

The next day, before dawn, Xie Xiao put on the old clothes, shoes and socks that he had made this summer, and prepared to go down to the big locust tree by the Qingbo River. As soon as he reached the gate of the courtyard, he saw an old woman with gray hair, bent down and pacing back and forth at the door.

"Excuse me, who are you?"

When such an old woman appeared, Xie Xiao was puzzled for a while, and only said that she was a relative of Chunyu's family.

"Son, you're going to fish today, and I can't rest assured for my mother, I want to follow and see." The old woman approached him tremblingly, and her hand was about to touch his face, so startled that Xie Xiao retreated.

Seeing that scared Xie Xiao like that, the old woman straightened her waist and giggled, and then returned to her normal voice: "Brother, I don't look like it, even you were bluffed by me." ”

Xie Xiao heard that it was this summer's voice, and frowned at her: "Why are you pretending to be like this?" ”

"It's not easy for people to recognize you by pretending to buy fish like this." This summer is really happy with his appearance, "Let's go!" ”

Xie Xiao is also a playful person, looking interesting, he doesn't stop her. In order to avoid being discovered, the two went to the big locust tree one after the other......

At present, the world is chaotic, under the big locust tree has become the only fish market in Xinhe City, there are more than a dozen boats that gather here to sell fish every day, and the number of fish is also limited, and the big fish must be supplied to large households and restaurants first, and the remaining fish are sold in the cabin.

The fish market has the rules of the fish market, the fish owner can only open the market to sell fish, if the fish owner is in the future, then a fish can not be sold, otherwise the rules are violated, and the fish market will not be able to enter the fish market in the future.

Fresh fish were brisking around in the cabin, and women waiting for fish were waiting under the stone steps of the big locust tree. The old woman dressed up this summer naturally couldn't squeeze others, so she could only stand behind the crowd and wait.

Finally waited for a middle-aged man wearing a large cocoon silk robe, whose whole body can only be described as round, yawned and walked over, and everyone spontaneously made way for him, the man didn't even bother to speak, first squinted and looked at the fish in each cabin, little by little, the little fat finger bit by bit, estimated the weight, calculated the approximate price, how much silver he could draw. Only then did he roll up his sleeves and wave his white chubby arm in the air, prolonging his tone: "Open-market-"

The fish market was suddenly in a state of commotion.

Fish-pickers, scale-bearers, fat pickers, bargainers...... This summer, I moved to the front and went to the boat of the little boss.

"Are there any four or five pounds of bass?" She asked in an old voice.

"No, no, no ......" the little leader waved his hand impatiently, and then threw a grass carp to the shore heavily, shouting, "Twelve catties of grass carp, does anyone want it?" ”

This summer looked into his cabin several times, there were not many fish in it, far less than the other boats, it seemed that he was fishing here under the guise of not fishing seriously at all.

At that time, Xie Xiao found the owner of the fish and showed that he also wanted to come to fish. The fish owner was sitting on a wicker chair under the tree, holding the spout of the teapot, dangling two small short legs, squinting and looking at Xie Xiao.

"Who?"

"Yangzhou people."

"Oh, what a place. Will water? ”

Xie Xiao was full of impatience, and he also knew that he could properly pretend to be a grandson, so he nodded.

"Can you fish?"

Xie Xiao nodded again.

The fish owner took a sip of tea, and then said slowly: "I don't know what the rules are in Yangzhou, but in my place, the rules are according to three draws of one, understand?" ”

The Wu'an Gang only pressed five to draw one, and this grandson actually pressed three to draw one, so dark! Xie Xiao cursed secretly in his heart, and he had to be submissive on his face: "Yes, follow your rules." ”

"Okay! Come with me. ”

Then the master of the fish got up, and led him slowly down the stone steps, and went straight to the boat of the little leader. Just now Xie Xiao had already caught a glimpse of deliberately buying fish on this boat this summer, and knew that this boatman must be dressed as a widow, and when the owner of the fish took him to this boat, he didn't expect it, and secretly screamed in his heart that something was wrong, could it be that he and this summer have been recognized?

This summer, I was carrying a perch on the shore, and when I saw a scene, I couldn't help but feel nervous.

"Dong San, how many fish did you catch today?" The owner of the fish frowned and looked into the cabin, "Everyone is a hundred catties of fish, and your boat is not even forty or fifty catties, if they are all like you, I will not drink the northwest wind!" ”

Dong San, who is the little boss, I don't know if it's his real name or a pseudonym, probably because he is used to being told by the fish owner on weekdays, and he is lazy and responds: "I'll catch more tomorrow." ”

"Tomorrow? You say this every day...... I don't have to wait for tomorrow, from today onwards, this little brother and you will fish in the same boat, as for how to divide the account between the two of you, I don't care, anyway, the fish on this boat have to be drawn by three to me. The fish owner pushed Xie Xiao into the boat.

“…… Ay! Ay! Dong San was a little anxious, "No, I don't know anyone about him, why do I have to fish with him." ”

"That's what I said!" The fish owner said angrily, "The little money paid every day is not enough to stuff my teeth, if you don't want to do it, let me leave!" ”

Probably needing the identity of selling fish as a cover, Dong San didn't bother with the owner of the fish anymore, glared at Xie Xiao, and said angrily: "You're going to go out of the river to fish when you are going to do it, can you do it?" ”

"Okay!" Xie Xiao should be very happy, which made Dong San's face more and more ugly.

The progress of this matter can be said to be unexpectedly smooth, but Dong San is not only a widow, but also a small leader among the widows, Xie Xiao stayed with him alone, in case he looked at Xie Xiao unpleasantly......

Not only did he think so this summer, Shangguan Xi thought of this question the moment he heard this.

"No, fourth, you can't go!" She said.

Xie Xiao replied disapprenously: "Lao Tzu is not afraid of him, besides, on the boat, he can endure me, if he is in the water, it will be better." ”

"Fourth, he's not an ordinary thief, he's a wolf!" Shangguan Xi was very anxious, "How big is the boat, if he waits for the opportunity to plot against you, you can't hide at all, and at that time, he throws you into the river again, you ......" She didn't say any more, and the look on her face already explained everything.

"Sister, do you want me to be good?" Xie Xiao was a little annoyed by what she said, and frowned, "What, I'll be thrown into the river." ”

Shangguan Xi tried hard to move his □, hurting his leg and hurting, and couldn't help frowning in pain: "Fourth, I didn't mean that, I was worried that you were plotted by him." ”

"I know that you are good for me, you do everything for my good," Xie Xiao scratched his head in annoyance, "but I am not a child anymore, I have been out for two or three years...... Yes, I've been beaten, I've been wounded, I've been in prison, but I'm not standing here in a good position. ”

"The Fourth ......"

Shangguan Xi still wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Xie Xiao: "Sister, I won't go to this matter, they will definitely think of getting into it again this summer." My life is my life, and other people's lives are not my life. ”

"I didn't mean that, you have to think about it for the old man, in case something happens to you......" Shangguan Xi said anxiously.

"I'll leave my words here today, even if the old man knows about this, he will never say a word, do you believe it or not?" Xie Xiao said proudly.

"Fourth, you have to go back safely, that's the most important thing."

"Sister, you came to Liangzhejiang this time, and you came because of me, right?" Xie Xiao was silent for a moment, took a deep breath, and then looked at Shangguan Xi puzzled, "Sister! There is a sentence I have long wanted to ask you, have you always looked down on me in your heart? Think I'm reckless, impulsive, and can't do anything? ”

“…… I didn't ......" Shangguan Xi tried to refute, but Xie Xiao couldn't listen to her at all.

"I've been out there for three years, yes, I haven't made a name for myself, but I feel happy! I went back to the gang, you said that for the sake of the old man, I have to stay and be a young helper, okay, I will be a young helper, but what is the use of my young helper, they still have to listen to your orders for everything in the gang, I am just a painting on the wall! Also, you didn't want to come to Liangzhejiang this time, but in order to look at me, you still came. When I was with the senior brothers in the temple, you were the senior sister, and I had nothing to say, and I should let you take care of it as a junior brother. Now, I'm helping them get down to business this summer, and you won't let me go...... Yes, you've helped me a lot, and you're much better than I am! But you're not my mother, you're in charge of everything like this, and I'm tied up my hands and feet, when will I get to the end? ”

"I ......" Before the words came out, tears could not help but welled up, she quickly wiped them away, trying her best to make her voice calmer, "Okay, I know, I won't stop you again in the future." You go out first, I want to be alone. ”

Xie Xiao was also angry, turned around and walked out of the house.

In the quiet room, Shangguan Xi covered her face with a quilt to block the crying that she couldn't hold back anymore: she never thought that for Xie Xiao, her concern would make him so disgusted.

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

The heat of the fried fish sticks is just right, the gold is shining, the outside is crispy and the inside is flustered, and the aroma overflows everywhere as soon as it is served on the table, which makes me very greedy this summer. She brought the steamed rice to the table, and then called Uncle Beggar: "Uncle, hurry up and call my aunt to eat, it won't taste good when it's cold......

Chun Yumin set up the dishes and chopsticks, seeing that he wanted to steal fish sticks this summer, he pursed his lips and smiled: "Don't worry, Brother Yang is still mixing sauce in the stove, and he said that fried fish sticks are delicious with sauce." ”

"Da Yang is virtuous!" This summer, he said, "It's really blessed if any family marries him." ”

happened to see Xie Xiao, and hurriedly greeted him this summer: "It's just in time, come and eat!" ”

Xie Xiao responded, and just as he was about to step in, a person caught up behind him, and for no reason, he punched Xie Xiao on his jawbone, with amazing force, and directly beat him to the point that he staggered a few steps and fell to the edge of the table.

Venus was in front of him, Xie Xiao didn't have time to see who it was, the person had already greeted him with another punch, and at the same time as he punched, he kicked out a kick, kicking the person out and slamming it into the door panel.

"Ah...... Ah Jin, you're crazy! ”

This summer, I was afraid that they would knock over the table, so I didn't forget to hold the fish sticks in my hands.

Xie Xiao struggled to stand up, looked at Ah Rui, who was still covered with a black veil in front of him, and said angrily: "You are crazy! ”

Although Ah Rui's kung fu has recovered a little, he is definitely not Xie Xiao's opponent, and it is only the sneak attack that temporarily succeeds. At this point he struggled to his feet, and did not answer, but swung another punch. Xie Xiao disdained to play against him, and dodged sideways, he couldn't hold his momentum, fell on the table, and his hat fell to the ground.

Chun Yumin was so frightened that he hurriedly picked up a drawer of steamed rice and hid to the side. This summer gave her a approving look.

"She's so good to you, you actually broke her heart like this!" Ah Rui's voice was hoarse, and he turned his head to glare at Xie Xiao angrily.

"Who......" Xie Xiao first paused, and then understood, "What do you know about me and my senior sister!" When will it be your turn to be eventful? ”

"You just can't break her heart! Are you worthy of her like this? ”

Rui said angrily.

This is a little familiar, it seems that he has heard it somewhere, Xie Xiao was stunned, stared at A Rui's face, and after a while, he finally saw through: "You are A Rui!" ”

Ah Rui froze, and hurriedly went to find a hat to bring on, and said in a continuous voice: "No, no, you recognize the wrong person." ”

Stepping forward and kicking his hat away, Xie Xiao clamped his throat, making him breathe hard and unmoved, and reached out to grab his scarred face......

"Brother, no!" This summer said quickly, put down the plate, and let go of Xie Xiao's hand.

"Do you recognize him?"

Jin Xia sighed and said briefly: "He was seriously injured and was rescued by Lord Lu because ...... His face, he doesn't want you to know, that's why he has been hiding it from you and Sister Shangguan. ”

Xie Xiao let go of his hand and said dissatisfiedly: "I said, I always think that he is sneakily staring at us, so I know that there is a problem." ”

"His injuries are almost healed, and I wanted to tell you about these two days." I will add a sentence this summer.

"No...... Don't let her know. Rui picked up the hat and put it back on, trembling slightly in his tone.

Why is that? I'll tell you, my sister doesn't like to be deceived. Xie Xiao saw that Ah Rui's scars were very hideous, and thought that he had also suffered a lot, so he didn't care about Fang Cai's affairs, patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, if she knows that you are Ah Rui, she will definitely be very happy." In Yangzhou, you disappeared for a few days, and she mobilized many people to look for you, and she owed the Salt Gang favors because of this. Tell me, are you worthy of her if you hide it from her like this? ”

"I'm sorry for her......"

Ah Rui said in a low voice, unwilling to say any more, the hat was lowered and hurried away.

Xie Xiao looked at his back inexplicably, and then turned to Jinxia: "What do you mean by this?" Did he do something sorry for my sister? ”

If you find out about this matter again, I'm afraid this meal won't stop, and this summer sighed: "Brother, let's eat the meal first, and then talk about other things, okay?" ”

"No way!" Xie Xiao didn't give up, "If this matter is not explained, who can eat it." ”

"I can eat it."

This summer looked at him with great sincerity.

Xie Xiao has always eaten soft rather than hard, so he had to say: "...... Let's talk while eating. ”

For a while, Yang Yue brought the sauce from the stove, Cen Shou helped serve the fish ball soup, Chun Yumin straightened the overturned round stool, and served a good meal for everyone this summer, and Uncle Beggar and Mrs. Shen also came.

"It's time to demolish the house, there's a chance!" Uncle Beggar caught a glimpse of the half-fallen door panel and sighed. The door panel was knocked down by Ah Rui, who was kicked by Xie Xiao.

This summer nodded again and again: "That is, since ancient times, I have been in the ...... Auntie, this is the fresh fish I bought today, Dayang's craftsmanship is good, you will eat more later. ”

Mrs. Shen smiled slightly.

"I'll just put the door on when I get back, what a big deal." Xie Xiao urged this summer, "You should say it quickly." ”

After taking a bite of rice first, and then taking a few bites of food, Jinxia chewed vaguely and said, "That's the case...... What's going on...... That one...... This one...... Peach blossom...... This fish soup is so fresh...... Then she ......"

In a pile of "fish balls, fish soup, and fried fish sticks", Xie Xiao finally heard something important: "You said that Zhai Lanye was killed by him?!" ”

Yang Yue was originally drinking soup with a spoon, but when he heard this, his hand stiffened slightly, and most of the soup was spilled, and Chun Yumin saw it in his eyes.

"Not only her, but also ...... in the peach blossom forest Three female corpses, almost gnawed by snakes. "I guess he did it," he shrugged this summer...... Thinking about the hardships he endured later, life is worse than death, what a retribution! ”

Xie Xiao waited for a long time before he frowned and said, "This kid, who is as silent as a stone on weekdays, didn't expect to be so ruthless, even a woman can do it." I can't let him stay with my sister, it's too dangerous! ”

Yang Yue finished eating the rice in the bowl and left the table silently.

"What's wrong with Brother Yang?" Chun Yumin asked this summer quietly, "He doesn't seem to be quite right." ”

Seeing Yang Yue's back turn out of the courtyard door this summer, he patted his forehead again and again in annoyance: "Oops, I shouldn't have said this...... It's all you, I have to say it! The latter sentence was directed at Xie Xiao.

Xie Xiao looked at her inexplicably: "What's wrong with him?" Does this have anything to do with him? ”

"Don't say it, don't say it......"

I didn't eat dinner this summer, so I hurried to comfort Yang Yue first.
