After the end of the fish market, Xie Xiao carried two fresh fish and earned some broken silver taels back. Yang Yue left him breakfast and reheated it and served it to him.

"Didn't show your feet, did you?" watched him eat this summer, and took a piece of cake and tore it to eat.

"Who is the master, how can he show his feet."

To be honest, fishing in the same boat with Dong San, and not showing flaws, Xie Xiao was still a little nervous in his heart, and basically didn't talk much. Fortunately, Dong San was thinking about it himself, and only asked him a little about who he was in the family, and saw that he was very skilled in fishing, but he didn't see any flaws.

"Is my sister okay?" Xie Xiao asked.

"It's okay, just talk less, I brought her food in the morning, and she ate it all. Ah Rui didn't want to die, he probably figured it out......" Jinxia looked at Yang Yue and said curiously, "Da Yang, how can you persuade him?" ”

Yang Yue smiled, Xie Xiao was in front of him, he didn't want to say more, he just said: "It's nothing, it's just persuasion." ”

This summer patted him on the shoulder: "If I am the head catcher of the six doors, I will give you a promotion and a raise!" Such a good Da Yang, you can't find it with a lantern. She pointed out that it was not that Yang Yue persuaded Ah Rui, but that Yang Yue was willing to persuade Ah Rui, how could ordinary people do this kind of mind.

"Hurry up and be the chief catcher, I'll wait."

Yang Yue said with a smile.

The next few days passed peacefully, and Xie Xiao never noticed that Dong San had any unusual behavior, but fortunately, the two of them had been fishing peacefully. Xie Xiao's fishing skills have become more and more proficient, and he can catch hundreds of catties of fresh fish every day, selling them for a lot of money, and the fish owner is also very satisfied.

Cen Shou has always remembered the compartment of Dong San's house, and has always tried to figure out what is hidden in the compartment, but the compartments are sealed with plaster, and if you want to explore it, it will inevitably leave traces, which will make Dong San find out.

"You can rent the house next door to Dong San, and then hire a stonemason, let them carve a stone lion in the courtyard, and then secretly dig a tunnel from the next door into Dong's house, calculate the direction, and dig through the bottom of the compartment. The sound of a stonemason's tapping can drown out the movement of digging tunnels. "This summer, we talked about it.

"That's a good idea!" Cen Shou took the case, "Why didn't you say it earlier, you should do it right away." ”

"Brother, calm down, there is actually only one problem with this idea." This summer motioned for him to sit down first, "I have calculated, the rent of a house in New River City is a minimum of three months, and the rent will be at least two or three taels of silver; You have to hire a stonemason, at least two people, plus the stone of the stone lion, and eat every day, and you have to have at least fifteen taels of silver to do this. ”

"Don't talk about it." Cen Shou supported the forehead.

"We can't afford that much silver." This summer finally concluded, "So it can't be done." ”

“…… It would be nice if the eldest prince could make peace with us as soon as possible. ”

"yes......"

This summer let out a long sigh.

After eating fish for several days in a row, Yang Yue had already used the eighteen martial arts of making fish, but even Uncle Beggar began to sigh when he saw the fish on the dinner table.

"Shall we eat some meat? Shredded meat and minced meat are also fine. He asked.

I didn't want to eat fish this summer, but I didn't want to spend money on meat, so I proposed to Yang Yue: "Da Yang, we can make fish balls, fry them and eat them, or cook soup." ”

"Doesn't that still smell like fish?"

This summer continued: "Just put more green onion and ginger, and by the way, you can also make fish cakes." ”

While speaking, Xie Xiao came back with two fresh fish, pulled up his trouser legs high, and after handing the fish to Yang Yue, he said to Jinxia: "Something is wrong today." ”

"What's the matter?" Cen Shou stood up suddenly.

This summer, he hurriedly brought a stool for Xie Xiao to sit on: "Brother, say quickly, what's the matter?" ”

"Today when I arrived at the river, before I began to cast my net, there was another boat on the opposite side, there was a lantern on the boat, one bright and one dark, two long and two short, I knew that something was wrong at a glance, but I could only pretend not to care. Dong San shaded the lantern on the boat twice, and then the boat left. ”

"It must be someone who came to connect with him!" This summer, I heard it.

"Later, after selling the fish in the fish market, Dong San gave me the silver taels he earned today, saying that he had something to do tomorrow to help people transport goods by boat, so let me rest tomorrow, and those silver taels would be regarded as compensation."

"You took the money?" Cen Shou asked.

"Of course, he has said this, if I don't accept it, won't he be suspicious."

"He's definitely going to use a boat to connect with someone, so he has to send you away. Let's get a boat and follow him! After so many days of suffocation in the courtyard, when the snake finally came out of the hole, she was very excited, "It's time to close the net!" ”

The days of going fishing before dawn are finally coming to an end, Xie Xiao rubbed his hands and said, "I'll go get another boat, we can wait in the deep grass at the mouth of the river." ”

"Da Yang, you make more cakes, and we will take them with us to eat." This summer towards Yang Yue Road.

Yang Yue said: "I'll go, you don't have to go." ”

"No, you're not as good at water as I am." This Xia said, "Besides, there are also Brother Xie and Second Brother Cen, maybe it won't be my turn to do it." ”

Mrs. Shen frowned and said, "It's enough to have the two of them, you can't go!" ”

"Auntie...... I am a quick catcher, and it is a matter of duty to catch thieves. "This summer's kind words are persuading.

"No, it's too dangerous, you can't go!" Mrs. Shen's tone was unquestionable, and she turned to Uncle Beggar and said, "You have imprisoned her, if she sneaks out, I will only remember you." ”

Uncle Beggar's face was full of grievances about the fire at the city gate and the fish in the pond.

This summer, I didn't expect Mrs. Shen to be so serious, and suddenly recalled the scene when she grabbed her hand at the ferry and didn't let herself go into danger - "No, I can't let you die again!" Her words are still ringing in my ears.

She looked at Mrs. Shen with doubts: "Auntie, why are you?" ”

Mrs. Shen looked at her with a complicated gaze, and said after a long time: "You call me aunt, that is, the two of us have this fate, I can't watch you go into danger." ”

"I know you're good to me, but...... It shouldn't be this way. You see, my mother was very good to me, my father was very good to me, and they always told me to be careful, but they wouldn't let me do nothing. ”

"That's because they're not your real parents!" Mrs. Shen burst out.

As soon as these words came out, this summer was suddenly stunned, and there was no sound in all directions.

Mrs. Shen's chest rose and fell, obviously in a turbulent mood, looking at this summer, she seemed to have a full stomach for words, but she couldn't say any more, and hurriedly got up and went back to the room.

"She, she...... What the hell happened to her? This summer came back to his senses, and his heart became annoyed, "What does this have to do with whether I was born to my father or not, they raised me from childhood to adulthood, and they don't feel sorry for me, don't I know?" ”

No one answered, Xie Xiao, Cen Shou and others, including Yang Yue and Uncle Beggar, didn't know what to say.

This summer turned his anger to Uncle Beggar, and slapped the cards of the six doors on the table: "Uncle, don't say that I didn't tell you in advance, I am a fast catcher of the six doors, although my position is low, I am a member of the imperial court." If you dare to detain me, you are against the imperial court! ”

"Girl......"

Uncle Beggar looked at her helplessly.

This summer also stared at him with a stiff neck: "Against the imperial court, there is no good fruit to eat!" ”

"Girl......" Uncle Beggar sighed, "Sit down and sit down, look at this grievance, the circles under your eyes are red, this matter is not negotiable." ”

This summer's eyes are indeed red, and she sat down awkwardly, and her mouth was flattened: "She...... How can you say such a thing, my father and my mother are good to me, she doesn't understand anything! ”

"Yes, yes, what she said is not right, but she will say the wrong thing because she cares about you." Uncle Beggar comforted her.

Chun Yumin quietly handed a veil to Jinxia and looked at her sympathetically.

This summer, he wiped his eyes with a handkerchief and stared at Uncle Beggar: "This matter, it is reasonable, it is reasonable, it is about the country and the family, uncle, you have to help me?" Can't be beautiful at the moment dizzy. ”

Uncle Beggar moved his body in embarrassment: "...... Well, I'll talk to her again, and maybe your aunt will change her mind. ”

"You'd better go!" This summer urged.

"I haven't finished breakfast yet, this ......"

This summer dragged him up and stuffed a bun into his hand: "Uncle, it's all up to you!" ”

Uncle Beggar had no choice but to go to Mrs. Shen's room.

Hooked his head at the door and stared until the figure of Uncle Beggar disappeared around the corner, and this summer jumped up and looked at Cen Shou and Xie Xiao: "Go!" Let's go now! ”

"Tune the tiger away from the mountain, high!" Xie Xiao gave her a thumbs up.

"What a tiger, my uncle is at most a cat in front of my aunt...... Let's go, hurry up. ”

I didn't have time to wait for Yang Yue's pancakes, so I took two more buns this summer and secretly left with Xie Xiao and Cen Shou.

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

Mrs. Shen frowned deeply, sat in the room, absentmindedly took the shirt to sew, and poked her fingers after a few sewings, so painful and angry, she had to stop.

Although the door was not closed, the beggar still knocked on the door panel, and asked with a smile: "I just saw that you didn't finish your breakfast, are you hungry, I'll give you some more?" ”

"No, you don't." Mrs. Shen turned her head and asked him worriedly, "Did I say the wrong thing?" ”

Uncle Beggar walked into the house and sighed, "I shouldn't have said it, that kid's eyes are red." ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Shen was even more annoyed.

"There is one thing, I have wanted to ask you for a long time, since I met this child in Hangzhou, you have been very different to her, and you are concerned about everything big and small. If you say such things today, is it possible that you are more concerned about her than your father? What is the reason for this? Uncle Beggar asked slowly.

"I ......," Mrs. Shen stopped talking, "I can't say anything about this now, not because I can't trust you, but because I still need someone to make the final confirmation." Anyway, this child is very important to me, and I can't watch her go wrong. ”

"What matters?"

"Yes, it's like a daughter." Mrs. Shen said, "So, you must help me take care of her, and don't let her run to fight the Japanese Kou." ”

Uncle Beggar coughed lightly: "This...... I'm looking for you at this time, she must have slipped away. ”

Mrs. Shen hurriedly said, "How can this kid ...... What if something goes wrong? ”

"My son can't help it, and besides, you're not her mother." Uncle Beggars comforted her and said, "Can't you see this kid, he has a big idea, he is also clever, and Xie Xiao and Cen Shou are also here, so it will be fine." ”

Madame Shen looked at him.

"Either I'll chase after her now, tie that girl back with a lot of flowers, and tie her to this table leg for you, and you can see her when you raise your eyes, and no matter where she goes in the future, tie a rope ......"

Mrs. Shen couldn't hear the meaning of his words, and she knew in her heart that it was impossible to restrict everything this summer, so she sighed and said, "Okay, you don't have to deliberately say such things in front of me. ”

Uncle Beggar stopped and asked tentatively, "You really don't need me to chase after you?" ”

"No need." Mrs. Shen picked up her shirt and sewed it, suddenly thought of something, raised her eyebrows, and looked at Uncle Beggar, "You deliberately let her go, right?" ”

"The Conscience of Heaven and Earth ......"

Uncle Beggar immediately made a look of June Flying Snow and was wronged.

"Okay, okay, don't explain." Mrs. Shen had no choice but to spare him.

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

On both sides of the estuary of the Qingbo River out of the city, there is a reed bush more than two people high, the reed bush is not big, but it is more than enough to hide a boat.

With his head resting on the ** plank, Xie Xiao was undisturbed and had fallen asleep.

Cen Shou only closed his eyes to recuperate, and his ears kept paying attention to the movements around him, not letting go of any slight sound.

Leaning his head on the side of the ship, he looked up at the Milky Way in the night sky from the gap in the reed leaves this summer, looked for Vega, and then looked for the Cowherd, thinking that Lu Yi didn't know what he was doing in Cen Harbor now, and he didn't know when he would be able to come to Xinhe City to meet her, and he couldn't help but sigh silently.

Took out the marriage stone from his bosom and rubbed it gently in his hand, probably because he carried it on his body, the black stone tentacles were warm, reflecting a little starlight, and it seemed to be spiritual......

"You, can you really protect me and Lord Lu together?" She looked at it and said to herself, "You must be useful, this is a big deal, you can't fool me!" ”

This summer, he put the marriage stone on the palm of his hand, and babbled in his heart for a long time, Cen Shou glanced at her several times with squinted eyes, and she didn't realize it.

At three o'clock in the ugly hour, the sound of the boat breaking was faintly heard not far away, and Cen Shou woke up Xie Xiao.

Xie Xiao picked up the river water, sobered up in an instant, and quietly opened the reed leaves to look - sure enough, it was Dong San's boat, because there was still a lantern on the boat, and Dong San's face could be seen vaguely.

When Dong San's boat sailed away, Xie Xiao rowed the boat out of the reeds, worthy of growing up on the water, he was good at rowing, and the boat followed Dong San's boat silently from afar.

When he was about to reach the center of the river, Dong San's boat stopped, he raised the lantern, and used his sleeves as a cover, flashing two long and two short flashes in one light and one dark. A moment later, there were lights in the distance......

The two ships approached each other, and after a short time, they would be in one place, and Dong San seemed to have discussed something with the comer.

"What shall we do? Now go up and get them? Xie Xiao was about to move.

"No hurry, wait."

Cen Shou calmly observed.

This summer's eyesight is not as strong as the two of them, and he can only see a general figure. Not long after, the two boats rowed away, and Dong San still returned along the path he had come.

"Leave Dong San alone, go chase that boat first! Fast! "Hurry up and whisper Xie Xiao this summer.

Under the cover of the heavy night, Xie Xiao made a silent turn around the ship, staggered Dong San's boat, and chased straight towards the jointer's boat.

The boat went down the river, going very fast, Xie Xiao chased after him in a hurry, and finally he couldn't care about the sound of the water. The man in the boat seemed to notice, looked back several times, and then rowed the oars as fast as he could.

"He's found out, quick!"

Now that he had been discovered, Cen Shou picked up the other oar and paddled forward, and the huge sound of water roared, and the small boat seemed to be flying on the water.

There are no oars left, and this summer I can only lie on the side of the boat, paddling desperately with my hands.

Soon the two boats were less than three feet apart, and the man on board turned around and raised his right hand.

"Be careful!" Cen Shou's eyes were sharp, and he hurriedly shouted.

Xie Xiao reacted very quickly, listening to the sound of the hidden weapon breaking through the air, raising the oar to block, the hidden weapon was as thin as a cow's hair, and instantly submerged into the wooden oar.

Cen Shou used his internal force and threw the oars out, hitting the man's vest. The blow was so powerful that the man fell into the boat. Xie Xiao rowed a few times, the two boats approached, Cen Shoufei jumped into the boat, and restrained the man before he got up.

"Don't turn him around, beware of the secret weapon in his mouth."

This summer also jumped over, still remembering the loss that Ah Rui suffered last time, and hurriedly reminded Cen Shou.

Cen Shou clamped the back of the man's neck with his hand, and with a slight effort, the man's throat suddenly made a retching sound, and he heard a few dings, and sure enough, three thin needles fell out of his mouth.

"It's really vicious!" Cen Shou said fiercely.

Xie Xiao jumped over with the rope of the boat, saw the fine needle spit out by the widow, remembered what happened last time, and was extremely angry, and kicked at the widow: "Dare to plot against the master!" I'm tired of you! ”

The Japanese raised their heads and muttered a long list of Oriental words, and all three of them were a little dumbfounded. I wanted to get a clue from the mouth of the wolf, but none of the three of them knew Oriental dialect, so it was troublesome.

"Don't pretend to be grandpa!" Xie Xiao kicked over again.

The man's nose was blue and his face was swollen, and he was muttering something in Oriental language.

Jin Xia pushed his forehead in annoyance and asked Cen Shoudao: "Your eldest son can understand this, will you?" ”

Cen Shou shook his head in embarrassment.

"What now?" Xie Xiao asked.

With a wave of his hand, he said decisively: "I'm stunned, I'll tie it back first!" ”

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

There was no one in the whole courtyard who knew Oriental dialect, and the widow was tied up here, unable to speak, and had to waste food to feed him, which was really distressing. This summer, he discussed with Cen Shou for a long time, and finally decided to report the matter to General Qi, who was stationed here. General Qi has been at war with the Japanese for many years, and there must be people in the army who know Oriental dialect.

The two then went to the army, but were blocked out of the camp, and only after asking did they know that General Qi had led the army to Taizhou, and they might not be able to return on three or five days.

"Excuse me, who is in charge of the city now?" Cen Shou asked.

"Of course, you should go to the yamen for the affairs of the city."

This summer asked, "What if you find traces of the Japanese pirates?" There are only a limited number of officials in the yamen, and there are many people who are afraid of things, but they are afraid that they will not take care of it. ”

The sergeant guarding the camp gate pondered for a moment: "You might as well report to Mrs. Qi, she will make a decision." ”

"Mrs. Qi?" This summer was stunned, "Brother, do you mean General Qi's wife?" Can she take care of the affairs of the widows? ”

Reporting to a woman, Cen Shou instinctively frowned, and also felt that it was ridiculous.

As if expecting them to react like this, the sergeant smiled and said, "You believe me, right now, the only one who can call the shots in the city is Mrs. Qi." ”

This summer and Cen Shou were suspicious, and asked the sergeant where Mrs. Qi lived, so he looked for it, but fortunately it was nearby, and he arrived in a short time.

After knocking on the door, a maid came to open the door, her eyes were not timid, and she looked them up and down, and then took Cen Shou and this summer's waist card to take a closer look.

"Jinyiwei, six doors......" she returned the waist card, "please wait, wait for me to report to Madame first." ”

"There's Sister Lao." This summer, there is a courtesy.

The door was closed, and this summer Chao Cen Shou shook his head: "See, even the maids below are so heroic, this Mrs. Qi is definitely not an ordinary person." ”

Cen Shou still frowned: "No matter how ordinary she is, she is just a woman, this matter is not trivial, what countermeasures can she have." I just want her to get in touch with General Qi quickly. ”

"If you look down on a woman, you will suffer a big loss, brother." This summer grinned.

Cen Shou didn't say anything, only snorted.

After a while, the maid reopened the door and said to them, "Madame, please come with me." ”

This should be General Qi's residence in Xinhe City, a simple small mansion, not as big as the other courtyard of the old man's house. Follow the maid to the inner hall, a young woman wearing a half-old Tibetan blue lake crepe jacket with peony pattern horse face skirt is busy at the table, a huge table of eight immortals, full of spear heads, wolf whisk heads, and waist knives and other things, can be described as swords and swords, the cold is pressing......

"Ma'am, someone brought it." The maid said.

The young woman was still wiping it with a waist knife in her hand, and when she heard this, she raised her eyes and said lightly, "Please sit down, two of you." Look at the tea. "No matter who it is, it won't be considered a good thing to let the six doors catch the door quickly, let alone have a brocade guard follow.

Looking at the sharp blade on the table, Cen Shoufang realized in hindsight that the Mrs. Qi in front of him was indeed extraordinary.

"I heard that General Qi's mandarin duck array is very powerful, and he uses spears and wolf stalks." This summer looked at the blades on the table with interest.

Mrs. Qi put the waist knife in her hand into the sheath, looked at Jinxia, and smiled slightly: "The girl is in the capital, and she also knows the Mandarin Duck Array?" ”

"Yes, the head of my family admires General Qi's improved Mandarin Duck Formation very much, and has told us about its many changes, such as the Five Elements Formation that is suitable for street battles, and the Sancai Formation that can be charged and pursued. We all admire General Qi very much. Jin Xia laughed.

Cen Shou glanced at this summer and sighed secretly: This sycophant is really in place.

Mrs. Qi really softened their faces a lot, and asked, "I heard that you are the catcher of the six doors, and this official is a Jinyi guard, I don't know what is the important matter of coming to the door this time?" ”

"That's ......"

This summer, he told the whole thing quite in an orderly manner, from meeting Dong San outside Hangzhou to how Xinhe City stalked about him, he said it in great detail, and Mrs. Qi frowned deeply.

"I wonder if there are people who understand Oriental dialect here, or can you find someone who understands Oriental dialect?"

Cen Shou didn't ask until the end.

Mrs. Qi smiled slightly: "I understand Oriental dialect, I'll judge him." ”

At this time, not only Cen Shou, but even this summer was slightly surprised. "Madam, you also know Oriental dialect?" She wondered.

"I have been fighting with the Japanese for many years, and I have had a lot of dealings with the Orientals. The so-called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can win all battles. So I specially asked Mr. Xi to teach Oriental dialect. Mrs. Qi got up and said, "The two of you sit for a while, I'll change my clothes, and I'll go with you." ”

"Thank you, ma'am!"

This summer and Cen Shou hurriedly got up and saluted.

Mrs. Qi turned out of the inner hall, and this summer Cen Shou squeezed her eyes: "What's the matter?" I said that this Mrs. Qi is not ordinary, right? ”

A woman who went out of her way to learn Oriental dialect because of her husband's resistance to Japanese is indeed not an ordinary woman. Cen Shou had nothing to say, so he could only nod.

"By the way, why does your eldest son also speak Oriental dialect?" This summer asked curiously.

Cen Shou sighed and said: "The master has high requirements for him, in addition to Oriental dialect, he also learned Goryeo dialect and Mongolian dialect. ”

This summer sighed: "Thanks to his talent and intelligence, if it were me, I would die of bitterness." ”

Cen Shou teased her and said, "The eldest prince is not here now, you don't have to pat yourself." ”

"Brother, this kind of thing is indiscriminate between people and people, and you have to shoot it when you have the opportunity." Teach him with a righteous face this summer.

knew that he couldn't say anything about her, and Cen Shou raised his hand to show weakness.

The author has something to say: The birthday of the motherland, even if it is also spelled ~~~ 嗷巷~~~
