"Don't be afraid, it's not a pirate, it's the Xiucai brothers who are back!" Ren Xingfan shouted at the other fishing boats. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

When Ren Siqi went ashore in a small boat, the fishermen were all on alert and went their own way.

A white-bearded old man of sixty or seventy years old stood on the small pier surrounded by a group of people, it was the patriarch of Renjiawan.

"Fourth grandfather!" After Ren Siqi went ashore, he walked quickly to the old man, knelt on the ground with a "poof", and screamed with tears.

The patriarch of Ren Jiawan is named Ren Jizu, who is the brother of Ren Siqi's grandfather, and is the fourth in line.

"You, you wicked!" Seeing Ren Siqi kneeling in front of him, the patriarch's beard was upturned, half of it was excited, and the other half was angry.

As the most promising person in Renjiawan, Ren Siqi can be said to be the pride of Renjiawan, but now the pride has become a fugitive, and the county officials have come to Renjiawan many times to hunt down Ren Siqi, which makes everyone feel humiliated. But in terms of blood, Ren Siqi is also a member of Ren Jiawan, and the family affection of this bloodline is constantly severed. So everyone's eyes on Ren Siqi are very complicated, and their attitude towards Ren Siqi is also very complicated.

"Get up, go home first." In the end, it is the child of his own family, of course he can't be turned away when he comes back, and looking at Ren Siqi's rough and dark face now, the patriarch Ren Jizu is also very uncomfortable, how much of a crime this child has suffered!

Ren Siqi hurriedly stepped forward to support the fourth grandfather and walked towards the village together.

"Azie, what are they going to do?" Ren Xingfan pointed to the "Flying Fish" in the sea and asked.

"They are all my men, so let them wait in the sea first." Ren Siqi said.

"You, you, your men!" Ren Xingfan stammered, isn't this Xiucai brother a fugitive, how can he have such a big boat in more than a month?

Patriarch Ren Jizu glanced sideways at Ren Siqi, endured the doubts in his heart and did not speak.

The houses in the village are scattered on the left side of the valley, and there is a curving stone road that connects to the pier. Of course, there is Ren Siqi's old house in the village, but it is impossible to move in because of the long-term inhabitation.

I came to his house with the patriarch's grandfather, which was an exclusive small courtyard, a house made of stones, a green tile roof, a few ridges of vegetables planted in the yard, and a few hens were looking for food at the base of the fence.

After coming to the house and supporting the patriarch Ren Jizu to sit down in the middle, Ren Siqi knelt on the ground again and saluted again.

This time, Ren Jizu didn't let Ren Siqi get up, but asked him to kneel there and tell what was going on.

"Fourth grandfather, I definitely didn't kill anyone, you also know that I read the book of sages, and I have been taught by sages since I was a child, how can I do something murderous? I was framed. ”

Ren Siqi told in detail how he was framed and sentenced to murder and imprisoned, how he escaped from prison and followed Mao 18 to the sea, and then went to Luzon to trade, explaining how Cao Changjiang and others, a Han in Luzon, encountered the attack of the Dutch on the way back, and after defeating the Dutch, Cao Changjiang and others supported him as the owner of the "Flying Fish", etc., and told Ren Jizu again in 1510.

"Get up!" Ren Jizu sighed after hearing this, "Flies don't bite seamless eggs, if you are cautious in your words and deeds, you can study with peace of mind and don't go to the fireworks and willow alleys, how can others frame you?" But you have also suffered a great sin this time, so you should be cautious in the future, and you must not wander as before! ”

Ren Siqi stood up, lowered his hands and stood solemnly, listening to the patriarch's teachings, and agreed repeatedly.

"What are your plans for the future? Can't you always be a pirate? Ren Jizu asked. Although it is not a shame to be a pirate off the coast of Daming, but thinking about Ren Siqi's previous identity, Ren Jizu does not want to see the family's hope become a bandit, so he, as a patriarch, will not be able to see his ancestors.

"Fourth grandfather, since my grandson has been wronged, I must clear up the grievances and restore the reputation of Xiucai, so that I can be worthy of my dead father and be an upright person!" Ren Siqi said in a firm tone. There is another thought in his heart that he has not said, that is, let the person who forced him to withdraw from the marriage see, he Ren Siqi can also turn over, and the future will be very bright!

"This is a great goodness, worthy of being the man of my Ren family!" Ren Jizu was excited when he heard this, "Wash away the grievances, restore the fame, and take the examiner in the future, so that you can glorify your ancestors, and then you can be worthy of your dead father!" ”

Examining the Jinshi among the people, Ren Siqi smiled bitterly in his heart, he didn't think about this, it was less than two years before the demise of the Ming Dynasty, how could he rely on the Jinshi to raise the people? Do you want to take the imperial examination of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, that is not good. Of course, the Ming Dynasty will perish in two years can't be said, Ren Siqi can only follow the words of the patriarch Ren Jizu, and just say something nice to make the old man happy.

"What are you going to do?" After the excitement, Ren Jizu remembered the business again, if he wants to wash away his grievances, it is not an easy task to restore his fame.

"I haven't figured out the specifics yet, so I can only take one step at a time." Ren Siqi said honestly. Now he doesn't even know who framed him, and it's even more impossible to say that he has washed away his grievances.

"It's okay, just do it, tell me what you need, and our village will definitely fully support you." Ren Jizu said angrily.

"Thank you, Fourth Grandpa!" Ren Siqi was overjoyed, with the help of his clansmen, things would be much easier.

"Although I don't know who framed you, I think that the original county order can't be disconnected," Ren Jizu stroked his long gray beard in one hand and analyzed, "But it turns out that the county order has been dismissed, and now with a new county order, it should be much easier for you to clear your name." ”

"What? Wang County's order is dismissed! Ren Siqi was a little stunned, and then came great joy.

Ren Jizu said: "It's not because of your escape, several prisons were killed, all the condemned prisoners escaped, there is a royal history to impeach him, he was dismissed, and the new county magistrate has just arrived in the county." ”

"But you don't have to be too happy, your prison escape has made too much trouble, and there are still many fugitives who have not been arrested, you are also a prison escapee, and it is not easy to make this matter clear!"

"It doesn't matter, it's completely rotten in the Ming officialdom, as long as you are willing to spend money, no matter how big a matter is, you can settle it." Ren Siqi said confidently.

"By the way, Fourth Grandpa, can my boat and my men stay here for a while? I'm going to Yin County soon, and they have nowhere to go now. Ren Siqi pleaded. Now Ren Siqi is facing a lot of problems, lack of people and goods, and even more lack of a base that can be accommodated, so he can't stay on the ship every day. This is also an important reason why he came to Renjiawan.

"Yes. We are very remote here, and the people from the government don't come here once a year, so you let them live here with peace of mind first. Ren Jizu readily agreed.
