Chapter 5 Clues in the Tea Workshop

"Stop it!" Shen Tingyu let out a loud shout, looked around, then looked at the man and asked, "Who are you and why did you appear in the Shen family's teahouse?" ”

"Hmph, who are you? Boy, let me tell you, don't worry about Uncle Ben's idle affairs, do you still want to be a hero and save beauty? Believe it or not, uncle, I'll beat you up first, and then throw you into the sea to feed the sharks. The man said in a very frenzied manner.

Shen Tingyu didn't want to pay attention to this rampant person at all, he directly asked the people around him, "Who is this person?" is also the person recruited by Mr. Zhou? ”

At this time, the girl who was holding the old woman on the side walked out, Shen Tingyu took a closer look, the girl was so beautiful, under her eyebrows, like a green mountain in the fog, looming, quite a bit of hazy beauty, and like a water hibiscus after the rain, clean and pure, the skin was as white as snow, and the delicate big eyes flashed with smart playfulness, it can be said that this girl is pure like a dusty white paper, not mixed with a trace of impurities.

Shen Tingyu was a little distracted, but he quickly returned to normal, and then the girl said: "Shaodong, he is the person who was recruited by Manager Zhou from somewhere, and said that he was for our Shen family's teahouse to watch the courtyard, but if he has nothing to do all day, he will find trouble with us." ”

When the man heard this, he looked at Shen Tingyu's clothes carefully, where could he not recognize that this was the young owner of the tea shop, and then thought of the offense he had just committed to the young owner, and he was immediately afraid, and hurriedly smiled at Shen Tingyu: "It's the little one who has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and offended the young owner, please don't remember the villain, forgive the little one, and let the little one go as a fart." ”

Shen Tingyu still didn't pay attention to him, but continued to ask the people around him: "Where is Manager Zhou?" ”

"Mr. Zhou is in the tea garden now, and the young owner wants to look for him? The little one will go and call him now. The man was busy offering his courtesy.

Shen Tingyu felt even more disgusted when he saw the man's flattery, so he said impatiently: "No need, you go and tell Manager Zhou, either you leave him behind, or he leaves you behind, let him choose for himself!" ”

When the man heard this, he didn't know that this was the meaning of the Shaodong family wanting to drive him away, how could Manager Zhou leave by himself for him? So he hurriedly said: "Shao Dongjia ......"

"Oh, the young owner is here, what's going on here?" At this time, Manager Zhou suddenly came and interrupted the man's words.

Shen Tingyu then told Manager Zhou what he had just done, and Manager Zhou was very angry when he heard it, this guy dared to be rude to the young owner. So he apologized to Shen Tingyu: "The young owner, they are all small with eyes and no beads, and if you recruit that thing that doesn't have long eyes, I'll drive him away now." ”

"It's okay, it's just that you don't have any relatives to recruit any relatives in the future."

"Shaodong, this person is not a relative of the villain."

"Oh, not your relatives? So who is he? ”

"Back to Shaodong's house, this person's name is Zhang Feng, and he is a fellow villager of the villain. He was originally a worker carrying goods on the wharf, but he was somehow driven away by the wharf people a few days ago, so he came to the small one, and the small one thought that for the sake of the friendship of his fellow villagers, he asked him to come to the teahouse to help with things, who would have thought that he would be so rude and offend the young owner. ”

Shen Tingyu frowned slightly and said, "He is carrying goods in the dock? Driven away some time ago? Do you know exactly when? ”

Manager Zhou thought for a while and replied, "It seems to be the time when the master had an accident." ”

What the? How coincidental is it? Shen Tingyu thought in his heart that there must be a ghost in this matter, and this Zhang Feng may be the clue to his father's unjust case, so he has to be left to ask him carefully. So he said to Zhang Feng: "Since you are a fellow villager of General Manager Zhou, then I will give you another chance to stay and be a caretaker of the yard." ”

"What, this... The young owner won't joke with the little one. Manager Zhou looked incredulous, he thought that Shen Tingyu was going to drive Zhang Feng away.

"No jokes."

"The little one will thank the young owner for him first." Then he said to Zhang Feng: "What are you still doing in a daze, don't you thank the young owner for your great kindness." ”

"Oh, thank you little one." When Zhang Feng heard that the young owner did not drive him away, he was immediately overjoyed.

Shen Tingyu didn't pay attention to him, but asked the old woman on the side, "Granny Li, this girl is your granddaughter?" ”

"Back to Shaodong's house, she is indeed my granddaughter, named Ying'er, who picks tea in the Shen family's tea garden, and stays in the tea garden most of the time. Not long after the young owner took over the tea business, he didn't come to the tea shop often, so he naturally looked at the noodles. ”

"Well, I see, then you guys should get busy."

Shen Tingyu turned to Zhang Feng on the side and said lightly: "Now you come with me, I have something to ask you." ”

"Okay, young owner." Zhang Feng followed Shen Tingyu to a room in the tea shop, and Shen Tingyu said to him seriously: "If I ask you next, you must answer truthfully, you know?"

"The little one must answer truthfully, and the young owner asks."

"Okay, let me ask you, when were you kicked out of the docks?"

"Back to the young owner's house, it's the beginning of this month."

Sure enough, it was the time when his father had an accident, Shen Tingyu thought. He asked, "Why were you kicked out?" ”

"I don't know about the small ones, it's just that the small ones carried a batch of goods before they were driven away, and after that all the workers involved in the handling were driven out."

"Oh? So what kind of cargo are you moving? ”

"The little ones don't know what kind of goods they are, they are all packed in sacks, and they can't be seen, but one sack fell into the water when it was being carried, and when the workers salvaged it, the volume of the bag shrank by half."

The sack is filled with salt! A word wakes up the person in the dream, only salt will dissolve when it meets water, it will not be wrong! Shen Tingyu asked again: "Also, who was the person who commanded you to carry the goods at that time?" ”

"Back to Shaodong's house, it's Song Steward."

Shen Tingyu pondered for a while, and then asked Zhang Feng to go back, although the matter has not yet come to light, but there is always a clue, he has a hunch, and he is not far from the truth!

Shen Tingyu then wandered around the street, inquiring about the news of passers-by, but after inquiring for a while, there was no result, seeing that the sky was getting dark, and he was about to leave for home, when he suddenly saw an old woman, curled up, squatting on the corner of the street. Shen Tingyu walked over, and after inquiry, he learned that the old woman had taken a basket of motherwort to sell this morning, but no one cared about it, and at the end of the day, she didn't even eat.

"This son, it's okay, just buy some, old woman, I've been squatting here for a day, and I haven't even eaten, and now I see that it's getting dark, I was counting on selling some herbs and getting some rice back, but I still haven't made a penny." The old woman begged.

Shen Tingyu saw that the old woman was pitiful, and thought of his mother who was sick in bed, so he felt a little sympathy, and he decided to help the old woman, so he said: "Don't worry, old man, how much do these herbs cost, I want it." ”

"Brother Childe, you are really a living bodhisattva! That's not much, just five cents. ”

Shen Tingyu immediately took out a tael of silver and handed it to the old woman.

"It's... This is unacceptable, Brother Childe. The old woman looked at the tael of silver handed to her by Shen Tingyu, and her face was embarrassed.

"The old man doesn't have to be polite, you don't have to look for this tael of silver, take it and buy more food to go back."

"Thank you, Brother Childe, a good person has a good reward, Brother Childe is a good person."

The old woman thanked Shen Tingyu and left, Shen Tingyu looked at the back of the old woman, thinking that there are many people in the world who are not easy to live like this, and he can't help but sigh in his heart, he really wants to help these people, but his ability is impossible to do this.
