Chapter 32: Caught
Lin Fei stayed alone in the house, feeling bored, not that Mother Lin deliberately neglected him, but that he himself was not used to being served and concerned. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Besides, what he thinks about the most at this time is to be able to go back as soon as possible, and he has inexplicable worries in his heart, worried about the stubborn and domineering woman. All he can think about now is to hope that Han Qi can be alive and be able to lead the troops to help Bai Yanfeng quell the rebellion according to the previous agreement, which is naturally the best result. But if you want to reach out with the white peony, it should be safe to save your life if you can't save it.
Suddenly a figure shook outside the window, and then there was a knock on the door: "Childe, breakfast is ready, are you coming to eat with us, or will I bring it to you, Mom." ”
In Lin Fei's heart, he had always felt that the word "mother" was extremely sacred, but when he heard it today, he felt as disgusting as eating a fly. Lin Fei estimated that it was about seven or eight o'clock in the morning at this time, and he could have breakfast, obviously the living standard of Lin's mother and her two daughters was quite high.
After Lin Fei hesitated slightly, he pushed the door and said, "There is Lao Ma...... Mom is worried, I won't eat breakfast, dare to ask Mom, do you know how to go to Wufu? ”
"Wufu?" Mother Lin asked, "Is Childe going to find a petty official?" ”
"That's not it, what I'm looking for is not the 'Martial Mansion' where Wu Gongzi lives, but ......" Lin Fei was a little speechless for a while, and he didn't know how to say it.
Mother Lin suddenly said: "I know the person you are looking for, are you talking about the Wu sister Wu Sanniang?" ”
Lin Fei patted his thigh and said, "That's right, yes, does mom know how to get over?" ”
"I knew you were talking about the two sisters, the little official can be said to be a veteran of the flower field, but he is helpless against the little sister of the martial arts, so the old man made fun of him a lot." Mother Lin continued: "In this way, son, wait for me at the door, I will explain to my two daughters, and I will take you over." ”
Lin Fei hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't bother Mom, you tell me how to go, I'll just go over by myself." ”
"No trouble, no trouble, I happened to be passing by there, you wait for me." After speaking, Mother Lin turned around and walked the same way she came.
I can't see that although this woman has her two daughters half-closed, she is quite enthusiastic. This person is really multifaceted, just like this Mother Lin, she is greedy for money, but she also has a warm-hearted side that does not ask for anything in return.
After waiting at the door for a while, Mother Lin walked out quickly with a steamed bun in her hand, stuffed it into Lin Fei's hand and said, "I still have to eat something, the young man is the time to grow his body." ”
Under the guidance of Lin's mother, Lin Fei quickly found the "Martial Mansion", and the feeling of standing in front of the door at this time and seeing each other at night were completely different experiences. I just entered the courtyard at night, and felt that the courtyard was very large, although the garden was full of fallen leaves, and it was a little bleak, but I didn't have much experience; Now it is different, just the stone lion in front of the door is more than one person high, giving people a sense of solemnity and majesty. Although the world is withering now, Guizhou is a remote area, and the etiquette system is not strict, but the people who can erect such two stone lions in front of the door can already imagine the scenery of the year.
Lin Fei stepped forward and knocked on the door, but there was no response for a long time, thinking that the yard was too big, and there was no steward to watch the door, it was estimated that unless he demolished the door, he was afraid that the knock would be earth-shattering, and it would not be easy for the people inside to hear. Just when I didn't know how to be good or good, suddenly the door opened, and a young face poked out, and when I saw that it was Lin Fei, it was like a blooming daisy in an instant.
"Brother Lin, why are you here?" Wu Xiaomei said in surprise.
Lin Fei scratched her nose with his hand and laughed, "What, I'm not welcome to come?" ”
Wu Xiaomei said: "Why, I can't wait for you to live here, so that you can tell me stories every day like you are on a boat." ”
When I entered the courtyard, I found that what I saw last night was not all the fallen leaves of the trees, but more of the weeds that were overgrown all over the ground, and only the occasional falling leaves covered it. The huge courtyard is desolate and ruined like this, which really makes people feel sad when they look at it.
"Where did Sanniang go, I came to ask, when will you go back to Tianqing Mansion, and ......?"
"What else?"
Lin Fei was a little embarrassed, gritted his teeth, and said, "And I want to ask, if you can lend me some silver taels, I will definitely repay it when I get to Tianqing Mansion." ”
Wu Xiaomei pursed her lips and said, "The silver is in my eldest sister's hands, and I don't have any silver." ”
"Do you know where she's gone now, or when she'll be back?"
Wu Xiaomei shook her head, and Lin Fei could only smile helplessly. He borrowed the money because he wanted to move out of Mother Lin's place, not because he was morally high, but he really felt weird in his heart. Thinking about sleeping in the wing room, the adjacent room is singing every night, and the sound of men and women love is endless, such a stimulus, he really can't accept it. In his previous life, Lin Fei had seen such a book called "Ten Years of Secret Visits", which mentioned that due to the rapid development of the city, all kinds of fish and dragons were mixed. Some women who stand on the street rent a rental house to do a leather and meat business, and the ones who fall asleep across the wall are the migrant worker brothers who came out to work here. When Lin Fei saw such a description in the book, he couldn't help but think in his heart, it seemed like it was not bad, and when it was really his turn to experience it, he knew the unspeakable pain in it.
"My eldest sister, it is estimated that she will not be able to come back until the evening, and the grain transported yesterday has been arranged by my sister to turn forward...... Brother Lin, what are you thinking? Wu Xiaomei pushed Lin Fei and said.
Lin Fei, who came back from his chaotic thoughts, hurriedly explained: "Oh, I just got distracted, and I didn't think about anything. ”
As soon as the two of them entered the house, they suddenly heard the earth-shattering sound of the courtyard door being slammed, Wu Xiaomei frowned, and turned to open the door. Lin Fei felt that things were a little strange, there were only two little girls living in such a large courtyard, and yesterday's Wuyi was obviously deliberately flattering, the whole thing seemed to be weird. Lin Fei subconsciously grabbed Wu Xiaomei and whispered, "Don't open the door, let's find a place to hide first." ”
"Hide, why?" Wu Xiaomei said puzzled.
At such a moment, Lin Fei really didn't know how to explain it, so he could only say nonsense: "Maybe that kid came yesterday, he is a dog skin plaster, we can't see it." ”
In this regard, Lin Fei's words, Wu Xiaomei expressed her deep agreement, and without saying a word, she pulled Lin Fei to walk in the backyard. There are two huge tumblers in the courtyard, about three meters high, Wu Xiaomei walked in front of the tumblers, just groped on them casually, then opened an entrance of about half a meter, and said to Lin Fei: "Quick, quick, you come here, make sure they can't find it." ”
Lin Fei didn't hesitate, he turned into it as soon as he was on his waist, there was a lot of space inside, and there was no problem at all standing up straight in it. The most important thing is that when this thing was first manufactured, there was actually a hole where you could check the outside situation, which was clearly a hide-and-seek artifact. Don't think about it, Wu Xiaomei must be hiding in another tumbler.
Not long after the two of them hid in the tumbler, they saw a group of people rushing in from outside, each with a sword in their hands, and it was clear that they were not good stubble. Lin Fei kept looking at another tumbler not far away, he was afraid that Wu Xiaomei would be ignorant and run out recklessly, and he would die.
A group of people turned the entire yard and the house over, but they found nothing and left in a huff. Lin Fei's heart that had been hanging could finally be put down, and after making sure that those people were really gone, Lin Fei pushed open the window next to the tumbler and got out, walked quickly to the other tumbler, and said eagerly: "Come out, something is wrong, those people seem to be looking for something." In any case, we can't let them find it, otherwise there will be no good fruit to eat. ”
Wu Xiaomei pushed the exit on the tumbler's stomach open, and said with tears on her face: "You say...... Do you think the eldest sister will be in danger? ”
......
There is no business or treachery in the world, Wu Sanniang had only heard of this sentence before, but she didn't have too many concepts in her heart. However, it was only after her father's death that she really realized the true meaning of this sentence, that is, if there is a slight possibility of lowering the price of a copper plate, they can ink with you for a long time because of this. Such bargaining was not her specialty, and it was quite a pain for her to sit with these stinking merchants.
After finally negotiating the price, the merchants arranged for men to come over and check the grain in the warehouse. Looking at the short and fat businessman not far away, he scolded Fang Xuan, and his facial expression was extremely rich. I sighed inexplicably in my heart, half a year ago, she was still a carefree lady, and she could practice swords and study every day, although because she was getting older, her father would always arrange for her to meet some so-called wealthy sons, which made her feel distressed. But overall, life is quite comfortable.
"Miss Wu, the food has been counted, and it is exactly as you said. This is the silver ticket of Dayuan Bank, you have collected it, there will be business in the future, you think more about my old man. ”
Wu Sanniang took the money ticket in one hand, turned around and walked out, but her ears were very good, and she clearly heard the businessman who was still smiling at the front turn, but at this moment she muttered in a low voice: "I thought I was the eldest lady of the martial arts family in Sinan Mansion, but I was very arrogant." ”
Wu Sanniang had heard a lot of such words, and when she first heard them, she would refute a few words, but now she didn't want to pay attention to them at all. Originally, she always thought that her father had arranged everything, and she felt that it was a burden, a burden that prevented her from moving towards her ideal life path; It was only now that she realized that her father was not only the old man who was often angry with her beard, but also the patron saint who sheltered her from the wind and rain.
The dock is still bustling, as far as the eye can see, there are all **** men in upper body, and there is a unique smell of sweat in the air, this is a man's world, she appears in such a place, it looks a little out of place. However, even if she was aware of the problem for a long time, what could she do? The so-called life is to be born and live.
There was a crowd of people in front of them, and several sturdy men pushed through the crowd randomly, and Wu Sanniang, who was immersed in her own thoughts, didn't notice this group of people at all, and it seemed that the target was her. By the time there was a reaction, it was too late, and the sudden crowd blocked all Wu Sanniang's retreats.
