Chapter 8 Orphans

The little carpenter originally planned to be arrogant and report his name, but when the words came to his lips, he still did not say his real name, and slipped his mouth and reported a nondescript name.

Because he remembered the Yucheng Pao Brothers' Association and the Panjiazhai in Suizhou, those are all potential explosive barrels, and if he makes a big fanfare, it is easy to be blocked.

And hearing this name, the tiger-skinned fat cat lying on the roof of the roof of the beam couldn't help but sneeze and almost rolled down.

If it could speak, it would have only one sentence.

I'm Nima.

And when he heard this guy's name, the beard was also confused, he looked at this stunned young man seriously, and scolded hatefully: "If it's really a tiger, raw melons and eggs, don't run here if you have the ability, see if I kill you?" ”

The little carpenter grabbed the knife and stepped forward, pointed at the guy's nose and shouted, "Did I say I was going to run away?" Come on, come on, let's have a show......"

He strode forward, aggressively, but the gang took a few steps back, and scolded hatefully: "Grass mud horse, a madman." ”

The bearded man exited the store with the people around him, then turned over and left.

He walked more than a dozen steps, and then turned around and shouted: "An Laoqi, Wang Poniang, don't think that you will be proud if you find a raw melon and egg, Lao Tzu is just a front station and found someone, you don't want to escape from the palm of the boss of Mei Niang, ha, ha, ha, ha......"

The fellow laughed and led the man away, and the little carpenter rose up and chased him out, pointing at the fellow and shouting, "You are paralyzed, you have the ability to come back." ”

The beard did not return, and it disappeared at the end of the long street after a while. As soon as the night breeze blew, the little carpenter's blood dissipated a little, and when he walked into the store, he saw that the originally lively hall was in a mess, and those customers had already run away, and even the guys in the store were gone, leaving the boss, the proprietress and the face-changing child who was crying bitterly with the corpse of the old man holding the erhu.

There is also Gu Baiguo, who is worried, and the cat.

The murderous aura on the little carpenter who came back dissipated a little, and Gu Baiguo hurriedly stepped forward and shouted, "Brother-in-law, you ......"

She was about to come forward, but the little carpenter hurriedly took a step back, then stopped her, and said, "Don't come, I'm covered in blood." ”

Not only did he have blood on his hands, but he also had blood on his knife.

After the cold snow knife was stained with blood, it became more and more bewitching and dazzling, and people couldn't help but stare at the cold light at the tip of the knife.

Gu Baiguo stopped, while the little carpenter put away the knife, looked at the innkeeper and the proprietress and said, "Two, I don't know what personal grievances you have with those people, but I have to remind you that what the bearded man said should not be fake, the other party is powerful, it is better to hide first, stay in the green mountains, and don't worry about running out of firewood." ”

After he finished speaking, he beckoned to Gu Baiguo: "Go and clean up, let's get out of here quickly." ”

Gu Baiguo nodded and ran to the backyard, while the little carpenter was also about to leave, but saw the boss An Laoqi open his mouth and said, "This little brother, wait a minute." ”

The little carpenter turned around and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

An Laoqi said with a wry smile: "My daughter-in-law was stabbed by them, injured her organs, and couldn't run; She can't leave, and I certainly can't live alone - my husband and I have been on the run for ten years, and we have been living for seven or eight years, and now we have been approached by the enemy, and we have confessed. The only thing I can't worry about is my seven-year-old child, little brother, can I ask you for one thing? ”

The little carpenter flatly refused: "I'm sorry, I don't know you, and it seems that the words of the dying orphan should not be said to me." ”

He himself is a trouble, where does he dare to arbitrarily agree to other people's requests.

Gan Mo was not a good old man with a warm heart.

An Laoqi didn't speak, but the proprietress next to him said anxiously: "Little, little brother, don't be in a hurry to refuse-we are not asking you to help raise my son, we are bothering you to send him to Jinguan City, I have a sister there, you help my son send him to his aunt, don't worry, we won't let you work in vain......"

An Laoqi also nodded hurriedly and said: "Yes, yes, my husband and wife have also had some savings over the years, half of which should be used as your reward, and the other half, please hand it over to my son's aunt and let her raise it on your behalf." ”

After the two finished speaking, they looked at the little carpenter with blank eyes and begged, "Is it done?" ”

The little carpenter subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Gu Baiguo just came back after packing his things, and when he heard this, he also looked at him expectantly, and said, "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law......"

The little carpenter is a guy who eats soft and doesn't eat hard, and he can't stand this the most, and his originally not very resolute will suddenly soften.

He sighed and said, "Okay. ”

Gu Baiguo was very happy and shouted loudly: "Brother-in-law, you are so good. ”

Seeing that the little carpenter agreed, An Laoqi breathed a sigh of relief, patted the shoulder of his wife next to him, and then walked upstairs, and Gu Baiguo also found the injury in the chest and abdomen of the proprietress, and saw that the blood continued to ooze out, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Are you injured?" ”

She was a professional doctor, and she couldn't look down on this the most, so she stepped forward to help, and the little carpenter walked up to the young man who was crying into tears, half-squatted down, and whispered, "You will come with us too?" ”

The little carpenter didn't know if the gang would be angry with the boy, but he knew that it would be dangerous if the beard brought someone over again and the boy stayed here.

The boy glanced at the headless corpse in his arms, and then at the little carpenter.

He nodded.

People have the instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm, and although the young man was in extreme mourning at the moment, he also knew that if he did not follow the person who had saved his life just now, he might be in danger.

Or even death.

Then the little carpenter got busy, and went to the stable, untied his horse, put his luggage away, and when it was ready, he returned to the antechamber. At this time, Gu Baiguo had already helped the proprietress deal with the wound, but because of the injury to the internal organs, there was no way to solve it more deeply.

The boss, An Laoqi, also brought a thickly dressed child over, and in addition, he also carried two burdens in his hands.

He tied one burden to his son, and handed the other to the little carpenter.

That's the pay, and there's the address of the boss's sister.

and letters.

In addition to these, there is also a big black horse on the side of the stable, he said that it is a good breed of Dawan, with good foot strength, and it is excellent for driving.

Gu Baiguo was still trying to persuade the couple to leave together, but neither An Laoqi nor Wang Niangzi refused.

They knew that if they followed, they would be a burden and would soon be chased.

Wang Niangzi hugged her son tightly, and then said to Gu Baiguo: "We have been targeted by the boss of Mei Niang, she is too ruthless, as long as she targets us, even if we escape to the ends of the earth, we will not be able to get out; We have been satisfied with ten years of peaceful life, and now it is better to end up in this place where we have lived for many years than to be chased to death on the road, which can be regarded as a kind of fulfillment. ”

After she finished speaking, she looked at An Laoqi next to her, An Laoqi smiled, reached over, and took her hand.

This couple, who have been ruined by the mundane things of life, at this moment, does not have too much vegetables, rice, oil and salt, but an indescribable and happy light.

As soon as the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win countless in the world.

They have no regrets.

Their son, the boy named An You'er, had just been woken up, and was a little dazed and confused, and waited for the little carpenter to reach out and pull him to the backyard stable.

He began to cry and struggled with the words "Mommy" in his mouth.

Wang Niangzi was also decisive, stepped forward, slapped her son viciously, and then pointed at his nose and scolded: "You will be an orphan without a father and no mother in the future, and if you make trouble again, throw yourself into the roadside field to feed the dogs, and no one will feel sorry." ”

A slap and a cruel word made the child stunned, stupid, and no longer struggling.

Only then did he realize that in the future, he would have no father or mother, and he would be an orphan.

The little carpenter felt sad, but he also knew that time was pressing, so he dragged the child to the backyard, found the big black horse, and said to Gu Baiguo: "Do you know how to ride a horse?" ”

Gu Baiguo shook his head and said no.

The little carpenter was a little worried, but the young man who changed his face raised his hand and said, "I, I will." ”

He was carrying a wooden box on his back at the moment, and he was still holding a broken erhu in his arms, as well as a cloth bagβ€”the cloth bag was oozing blood and heavy.

The little carpenter knew that it was the head of the old man who pulled the erhu and rolled down, so he didn't bother with it, but said: "Okay, you take this child, and then follow me, don't be left behind, there is anything for me to handle, you know?" ”

The boy nodded and said yes.

The little carpenter came to the backyard with two horses and a few people, and let the young man and An Laoqi's son An You'er together, while he took Gu Baiguo and the tiger skin fat cat and turned over on the horse.

They rode horses and left the town, and the little carpenter was still a little worried that the young man with a changed face was not very familiar with horses, and that it would be more troublesome with a silly child, but he saw that he was very familiar with horseback riding, whether it was horse nature or drive, he looked like a horse, and he was relieved.

When the group walked out of the town, the little carpenter turned around and saw a figure floating in the darkness not far away.

He knew it was the guy sent by the beard to keep an eye on him, so he ignored it and rode away.

Two horses and four men ran towards the west side of the town, because the road was wide, so they rode on horseback, and there was no one to stop them on the road, and after about seven or eight miles, the little carpenter seemed to feel something, and looked back, but saw far away in the direction of the town, but there was a sky-high fire floating.

Although he was uncertain, the little carpenter sensed that the beard might have returned with his pursuers.

And An You'er, who was stupid and didn't speak all the time, also seemed to have some sense, and suddenly there was a "wow" sound and she cried directly.

But he cried and cried, but he didn't splash and roll.

The little carpenter looked at the fire in the distance, took a deep breath, and said, "Go." ”
