Chapter 168: Wu Song harms his brother
The next morning, Wu Song didn't get up too late, but Pan Jinlian actually got up earlier than him. When Wu Song went downstairs, it happened that Pan Jinlian had already returned from outside.
Pan Jinlian was still wearing a veil, but from her beautiful big eyes, it could be seen that she was in a very happy mood. Because, she got up early in the morning to fetch the duck. The boss did not break his promise, and sure enough, he made a duck that was exactly the same as the one that was trampled on overnight.
Seeing Wu Song, Pan Jinlian was a little shy, but she couldn't help but happily held up a pair of mandarin ducks to Wu Song and said, "Brother Wu Song, look! β
Wu Song smiled and said, "Well, it's so beautiful, it's like it's alive." If you have to become a muddle, why die, I am willing to be a mandarin duck and not envy the immortal! β
Although Pan Jinlian had never studied, she still understood the poem that Wu Song blurted out later, and her beautiful big eyes suddenly brightened up and became more radiant, but her ears were red, and she was infinitely shy, and she lowered her head and said softly: "Brother Wu Song must remember what he said today!" β
Wu Song's heart jumped suddenly, and he was suddenly embarrassed. In fact, he just blurted it out, and he didn't mean anything. In the era before the crossing, "only envy mandarin ducks and not immortals" was a sentence that was used excessively, and he didn't think much about it at this time, it was purely a conditioned reflex caused by the memory of his previous life, so he casually chanted the original sentence of this poem.
However, in Pan Jinlian's ears, it was clear that Wu Song was confessing his heart to her.
In order to avoid embarrassment, Wu Song hurriedly changed the topic and asked, "Jin Lian, have you seen my brother?" β
Pan Jinlian said: "Brother Da Lang, no. We've been busy these days, maybe he wants to rest a little more, it's still early, don't worry. β
Wu Song had some bad premonitions in his heart. Because, he knows his brother Wu Dalang best in the world. Wu Dalang has always been industrious, and he used to always get up before dawn to make cooking cakes and sell them, and never stayed in bed. Wu Song is a young man after all, and he used to wander in the past, and it was often a matter of sleeping lazy. In my memory, since the death of my parents, I haven't seen my brother Wu Dalang get up after him.
If Wu Dalang gets up later than Wu Song, there is only one possibility, that is, he is sick.
Wu Song was about to go upstairs to ask, but he saw the coachman who was in the same room with Wu Dalang hurriedly coming down from upstairs, and when he saw Wu Song, he hurriedly said: "Oh, Dalang is gone alone!" β
Wu Dalang didn't have any culture, but he actually left a note with a few words written crookedly, to the effect of: "Erlang, my brother will sell cooking cakes, you and your brother-in-law can rest assured!" β
The meaning, of course, is: he can support himself by selling cooking cakes, and Wu Song should not worry about him.
The coachman said to Wu Song: "Last night, Da Lang quietly told me that he wanted to leave alone, so as not to follow you and get in the way between you and the little lady of the Pan familyγγγγγγ β
Pan Jinlian was extremely shy, and Wu Song hurriedly broke off and said, "Shut up!" Jin Lian and I are innocent, and we have no other relationship! β
The coachman said, "That's what Da Lang said anyway." He also said that now that you and his brothers have no parents, and the eldest brother is the eldest, he has agreed to the marriage between you and the little lady of the Pan family on behalf of his parentsγγγγγγ β
Pan Jinlian was even more shy, and Wu Song was so anxious that she shouted: "Don't talk nonsense!" Shut up! You just tell me, where the hell did my brother say he was going? β
The coachman said, "But he didn't say that." At that time, I only said that Da Lang was talking casually, and persuaded him, if you want to marry the little lady of the Pan family, shouldn't he be present as an elder brother, how can you leave alone? Da Lang said that he knew that you and the little lady of the Pan family were going to Cangzhou, and he would naturally come to look for you again when the time came! β
Wu Song was in a hurry.
He couldn't care about being wordy with the coachman anymore, and hurriedly asked the shopkeeper when Wu Dalang left the hotel and in which direction. Unexpectedly, the second junior of this shop was ignorant, and he only said that there were many guests in the hotel, and he didn't pay attention to them when they came in and out.
Wu Song asked Pan Jinlian to stay in the hotel for the time being, and hurriedly went to the street with the coachman to look for it. Pan Jinlian wanted to go with him, but she was a woman and had difficulty moving, so she was afraid that following him would be a drag, so she had to wait in the hotel.
It was not until noon that Wu Song and the coachman returned. They searched all the streets and alleys of Shenzhou and searched everywhere, but there was no news of Wu Dalang.
Wu Dalang was originally a dwarf, and he was the best of the ugly. Such a person, who is originally eye-catching wherever he goes, will make a deep impression. But this time, he obviously wanted to deliberately hide his whereabouts, so as not to be found and caught up by Wu Song, so he didn't leave any clues.
For the first time, Pan Jinlian saw that a martial and heroic person like Wu Song suddenly became depressed at this time, as if he had been drawn all his vitality, and his face was gloomy and frightening.
She knew that Wu Dalang was Wu Song's only relative in this world, and the brothers depended on each other, and Wu Dalang left suddenly, Wu Song's incomparable worries were naturally inevitable.
She didn't know that Wu Song was more worried about Wu Dalang than she imagined!
Just because, Wu Song is a traverser. Before crossing over, he learned about Wu Dalang's fate from books and film and television dramas.
Wu Dalang and Wu Song brothers originally depended on each other, but Wu Song was wandering around to cause trouble at that time, and often caused Wu Dalang to be called by the government to suffer on his behalf. Later, Wu Song accidentally beat Ma Confidential, thinking that he had killed Ma Confidential, so he fled to Chai Jinzhuang, leaving his brother Wu Dalang alone in Qinghe County.
As a result, the lonely Wu Dalang was forced by Zhang Dahu to marry Pan Jinlian, and then because Pan Jinlian was too beautiful and coquettish, the ruffians and hooligans in Qinghe County came to provoke him, and Wu Dalang was so oppressed that he couldn't settle down, so he had to take Pan Jinlian and wander to Yanggu County.
In Yanggu County, the brothers Wu Song and Wu Dalang met unexpectedly after the tiger fight, which was a fortunate thing. However, in order to find a future, Wu Song went on a business trip and left Wu Dalang alone at home again. It was this time that Pan Jinlian was hooked up with by Ximenqing, and Wu Dalang was finally poisoned to death.
Although, after Wu Song came back, he avenged his brother, stabbed Pan Jinlian, killed Ximenqing, and scraped the princess who matched Ximenqing to hook up with Pan Jinlian, but, after all, Wu Dalang could not be saved.
Speaking of which, it was precisely because Wu Song left his brother again and again, leaving his short, ugly, cowardly brother to face the sinister reality alone, that Wu Dalang died. Moreover, if it weren't for the fear of Wu Song, he was worried that Wu Song would not agree to Pan Jinlian's abandonment of Wu Dalang and Ximen Qing's union, and he was afraid that Wu Dalang would rape him. After telling Wu Song and being retaliated by Wu Song, Pan Jinlian and Ximen Qing may not necessarily poison Wu Dalang.
