Chapter 132: Meet Fanghua
At night, the originally lively town was closed, and the light through the windows gradually went out, Dong Wei looked around, and silently went to the dilapidated house of lame Furong.
He didn't have to jump on the roof or stab the window paper or go around the threshold to see the scene inside. The ground is dust, the earth is dirt, there are a lot of dead leaves, scattered furniture around, and spiders under the eaves overhead have webs.
If it weren't for the fact that there was still a person sleeping soundly inside, Dong Wei would still think that he had entered a deserted room in front of him.
There was a simple table and chairs on one side of the room, a pile of clothes thrown on a shelf, and a haystack on the other side, and the lame Furong slept on the haystack, curled up, covered with a few long shirts, and snored constantly, and slept well.
Dong Wei came in softly, and he didn't see that the lame Furong looked like he had made a fortune, so he took out a piece of ecstasy incense from his arms, lit it and found a suitable place to put it, and he stayed away first.
After a while, the ecstasy incense worked, Dong Wei entered the house, blew out the incense that had not yet burned out, and began to rummage around, found some broken silver under a floor tile next to the table and chair, and pulled out two ingots of silver in the corner of a simple cabinet, thinking that this person also had a ghost idea, and scattered the whole bag of silver.
After searching a few corners, I didn't find anything other than silver, and in the end, I was left with the lame Furong and the pile of haystacks behind him......
Early the next morning, Gu Qingyan woke up, the fire had been extinguished for a long time, looking left and right, he didn't see Dong Xin's figure, his body was covered with Dong Xin's coat, Gu Qingyan remembered that there was a river not far from them, so he got up and walked there.
Seeing that Dong Xin washed his face and turned around to go back: "The master is up." ”
"Hmm." Gu Qingyan also went to the river, returned the outer drape to Dong Xin, and squatted down to wash his face.
The river was cold and the tentacles were piercing, so I had to wash it in a hurry and deal with it: "I don't know what happened to Dong Wei and his side." ”
Gu Qing said, she looked up at the sky, waiting for Dong Wei when they would release the signal. There was no one in the mountains and forests, Dong Xin could only propose to go around to see if he could find some fruit, Gu Qingyan nodded and let him go.
There are often wild fruit trees in the mountains, but the probability of encountering delicious wild fruits is very small, Dong Xin groped for two laps, only to find the same, those that grow on the height of the tree look big and good color, Dong Xin went up the tree to pick fruits, suddenly saw the signal in the air, and hurriedly picked a few pockets and rushed to find Gu Qingyan.
Gu Qingyan has been standing by the river, with a wide line of sight here, naturally he also saw the signal sent by Dong Wei, and when Dong Xin came back, the two went to the town together.
The town was lively early in the morning, and the lame Furong yelled along the streets and alleys, not saying that he had been robbed yesterday, but in this town, most people didn't believe it, this lame Furong lived simply, dressed in rags, ate casually, and had something worth remembering about the thief.
Some people heard about the recent changes in lame Fuei in the tavern yesterday, and thought that it was really ill-gotten gains, so they were remembered!
Some people will be suspicious, thinking that there is really a thief in the town, don't be lame Furong didn't steal anything, but his own family suffered what to do.
So in this case, when Gu Qingyan appeared in front of the entrance of the town, he was confused and invited into the town, and under the gossip, he finally understood what was going on.
As soon as he walked to the Lao Yi Tavern, the lame Furong limped out of nowhere, and Gu Qingyan flashed back quickly, and Dong Xin quickly stepped forward and stopped the lame Furong with a sword: "What's the matter with you?" ”
"Ask the four girls for help, the villain's family has been robbed." The lame Furong fell to the ground and stumbled and bowed, making Gu Qingyan stunned.
When others saw this, they couldn't help but feel funny, and some laughed out loud, and were stopped by the lame Furong: "What are you laughing at, maybe it's your house tonight!" ”
"Hey, look at what you said, I believe that anyone in the town is robbed, but I don't believe you when you are robbed." It was an aunt who spoke.
Gu Qingyan looked at it, it is estimated that the two of them will not stop fighting back and forth, and they are too lazy to listen, so they simply want to enter the tavern and wait first.
happened to see Dong Wei and Dong Yu not far away, Dong Yu walked towards them, Dong Wei looked at the lame Furong, and then glanced at Gu Qingyan, and then nodded, now Gu Qingyan understood.
As soon as he turned around and entered Lao Yi's tavern, he was really lame Furong who heard his aunt choking with him, and he didn't care about his request just now, he stood up, and the two scolded each other.
Dong Yu took advantage of the time to walk to Dong Xin's side, and Dong Xin asked him, "Is there any news?" ”
Dong Yu looked at the lame Furong who was clinging to the shouting frame, and patted Dong Xin's shoulder, and Dong Xin understood.
"Where's Dong Wei?"
"It's time to go inside and report to the master."
"Okay, just guard this place."
"Hmm."
So the two of them stood in the crowd of onlookers, guarding the lame Furong and arguing, and by the way, they also watched the excitement.
Gu Qingyan also learned about what happened in the tavern yesterday from Lao Yi at this time, and Dong Wei also came in and said that he visited the lame Furong family at night last night.
"He said he was robbed, what did you bring back?" Gu Qingyan asked Dong Wei.
Dong Wei took out a cloth bag from his arms and put it on the table: "The subordinates rummaged through his room, and the others were scattered in the corners, but he was the only one who carried this cloth bag, and looking at this cloth, it didn't look like he had it himself, so the subordinates took this out." ”
Saying that, Dong Wei opened the cloth bag, and there was broken silver and a whole silver ingot in it: "Originally, he only had broken silver in his cloth bag, and I took the silver ingot from where he hid the silver so that the master could identify it." ”
Gu Qingyan listened, picked up the ingot of silver, looked at it carefully, and looked at the bottom of the silver first, but there was no official silver, but an ordinary person would make some broken silver at most, like lame Furong, at most a few coppers, and if he had money for no reason, he couldn't make people suspicious.
Touching the fabric of the cloth bag again, looking at the pattern on it, Gu Qingyan said: "Heh, I'm afraid this fabric is not available in the town." Dong Wei said: "Yes, my subordinates went to the town early in the morning, and they didn't have this kind of material." ”
"What kind of fabric is this?"
"I asked, and the shopkeeper said that although this material is rough and hard, it is thick and has better woven stitches, and there are traces of embroidery. Dong Wei relied on his memory to say it to Gu Qingyan.
Gu Qingyan smiled: "Yes, that's right, this cloth bag is a scrap material, and the person who wants to come to Qian has seen a lot of good things, so naturally he won't care about this cloth that is incompatible with the lame Fu Rongge, so he will use this to wrap it and give him silver." So what's the matter, why did a rich man give him such a sum of money? ”
After speaking, Gu Qingyan tilted his head, listening to the shouting outside one after another, and he was not in a hurry to let the lame Furong in, but asked Dong Wei first: "Is there anything else besides silver?" ”
Dong Wei shook his head, he didn't find the booklet last night, and he wasn't in a hurry to let Gu Qingyan and them come over, but from last night to early morning, he had been staring at the lame Furong's house, and when he saw the lame Furong waking up, he hurriedly didn't look to see how much silver was missing, but rummaged around, and he was still muttering something, Dong Wei was a little far away and didn't hear it too clearly, so he felt that something was wrong, so he sent the signal.
"Okay, bring someone in later, and since you have doubts, you can ask them properly."
"Yes."
Gu Qingyan asked Dong Wei to ask by himself, and he turned to the backyard to find Lao Yi and them: "Uncle Yi?" ”
"Eh, the four girls are done?" Lao Yi responded with a grin.
Gu Qingyan looked at Lao Yi's happy appearance, and teased: "Uncle Yi, there has been a happy event in the family recently, you are in good spirits, when will I meet the bride." ”
"What did the four girls say?" Lao Yi turned his head and called Xiao Yi, "Son, where is Fanghua?" Don't come out to meet the four girls yet? ”
Xiao Yi answered, and went upstairs to call Fanghua down, not long after, Xiao Yi took Fanghua and walked towards Gu Qingyan, Gu Qingyan looked at the woman with a smile on her face, without losing her gentleness, and gave them a generous and decent action with tea, greeted Gu Qingyan, and said a few words of laughter, with a frank temperament, plus Lao Yi and his wife both said that this daughter-in-law is capable and filial.
Seeing their happy appearance, Gu Qingyan was also happy, took off the white jade and gold-rimmed hairpin on her head, and sent it to Fanghua, Fanghua saw this, did not dare to accept it, and hurriedly refused: "Four girls, I can't help it." ”
Lao Yi and the others also said again and again that they didn't need it, no need for these words, Gu Qingyan didn't care about this, stepped forward, directly inserted the hairpin into Fanghua's bun, and then stopped her hand that wanted to take off the hairpin, and said: "I know that Xiaoyi married a new daughter-in-law, and we were not in the valley for a while, so I didn't have time to come over to say hello." This time I came in a hurry, I didn't bring anything, this hairpin is regarded as a meeting gift, and I must accept it. ”
"Four girls, Fanghua is a woman, the hairpin of the four girls is too valuable, Fanghua deserves it." Fanghua said sincerely.
Gu Qingyan shook Fanghua's hand: "Don't be ashamed, Uncle Yi and Xiao Yi always send me good wine, don't I often forget to give silver, if you really think there is anything, just take it as if this is the wine money I gave." ”
Although Gu Qingyan said this, how could they admit it, the wine money was not something that Gu Qingyan forgot to give, but they didn't accept it, and this time they gave it next time and sent it back with the idea of something else.
Fanghua was still embarrassed, Uncle Yi sighed lightly: "Eh, Fanghua, you can accept it." ”
"That's right, Fanghua, even if you're only working at home, don't forget to dress up." Gu Qingyan looked at Fanghua and said.
Fanghua saw a kind of confidence and firmness in Gu Qingyan's eyes, and suddenly felt that the person in front of her was deeply attracted to her, thinking of the rumors of this fourth girl on the rivers and lakes, she actually felt that she was so resolute and resolute, different from ordinary women, and she also nodded firmly.
This move made Xiao Yi feel uneasy, and he always felt that his daughter-in-law would run away, and hugged Fang Hua tightly after thanking Gu Qingyan.
This careful thinking was seen through by Gu Qingyan, and deliberately teased him: "Oh, you can also see, Fanghua is a capable and good girl, in case you treat her badly one day, don't expect her to cling to you like other women cling to men, don't think about treating her badly, if the girl I fancy is wronged, I will also clean you up." ”
"Fourth girl, don't worry, there won't be that day." Xiao Yi said solemnly, although these words were for Gu Qingyan, his eyes were full of love and looked at Fanghua.
Gu Qingyan nodded with satisfaction, asked Lao Yi if he could help, and asked Lao Yi to find something that she could help do.
