Chapter 299: A Heart of Ice in the Jade Pot
Master Hua San sighed in his heart, he had heard Shi Ding say that the little fox was hiding under the mule cart and was picked up by his own daughter. Shen Xiao's well-behaved noble son will become a stupid little fox, and what happened in this may be more dangerous than in the book.
The orange light softened Shen Xiao's face, and the sixteen-year-old boy was still young, but his eyes were clear and pure.
Master Hua San sighed and asked, "Then you must have been injured by the gangster, I've heard of this kind of thing, alas." ”
Gangsters?
Shen Xiao didn't know how to explain it, he did encounter gangsters, but the one who injured his head was not a villain.
Since he was a child, Shen Xiao has a habit of not knowing what to say, so he simply doesn't say it.
Silence, silence, that's my answer.
When Master Hua San saw that he didn't speak, he knew that this was a tacit acquiescence.
Although the third master of Hua has cultivated to the point that he is about to stop eating the fireworks in the world, he also knows that what Shen Xiao said is a secret thing, and Shen Sigongzi actually has amnesia, which is not a good thing, and it may be passed around that Shen Sigongzi is really a fool.
Such a private matter, Shen Xiao actually told him.
In the past, he thought that the little fox was very good and simple-minded, but now it seems that even if he has amnesia, human nature will not change, whether it is the little fox or Shen Xiao, they are all ice heart jade pots, such as the moon in the clouds, such as the spring water in the sun.
He patted Shen Xiao on the shoulder, the young man was already about the same height as him, and in two years, he would be able to run again.
"How old are you, are you seventeen?"
"Seventeen years old."
In other words, he is only sixteen years old.
Master Hua San used to think that his two daughters were the most pitiful in the world, one had separated parents, and the other had no mother since childhood, but compared with Shen Xiao, if Linlin had not been killed, their sisters would not have been the worst.
Shen Xiao is pitiful.
As soon as he was born, his mother died, his father died when he was a teenager, and his eldest brother also died, and he himself struggled on the death line since he was a child, and he couldn't even keep it at home.
"You're a miserable kid too." Master Hua San is sincere.
Ping'an, who was waiting on the side, glanced at his son-in-law, Shen Sigongzi's lips were tightly closed, and he couldn't even win sympathy.
Ping An wiped a handful of tears and said to the third master of Hua: "Third master, don't you know, my son-in-law has suffered many sins in order to cure diseases since he was a child, he has eaten earthworms, centipedes, scorpions and insects, and those strange medicinal materials, which are disgusting to look at, and my fourth son eats them like rice." ”
Master Hua San was dumbfounded, Qingyu and Qingyan hurriedly shut up, don't spit it out, Shen Sigongzi is already so pitiful, if they vomit, are they still people?
Ping'an quietly glanced at Shen Sigongzi, just opposite Shen Sigongzi's four eyes, Shen Sigongzi pursed his lips, but did not open them.
Ping An is happy, he is the one who knows the son best, he knows that his son no longer knows how to reprimand him, well, when the son doesn't know how to say, he simply doesn't speak.
Since I don't know how to scold him, I just don't scold.
Master Huasan patted Shen Xiao's shoulder again: "Good boy, you have suffered all these years. ”
Shen Xiao still didn't speak, this time not only Master Hua San, but even Qingyu and Qingyan also thought that this was a tacit acquiescence.
Master Hua San remembered the brazier and charcoal that he had just sent over, this is a child without a father and a mother, on a cold day, he can't even drink hot water.
"In the future, you come to live here again, don't be polite, come to me to eat, eat and drink enough, and then go back to sleep."
Master Hua San thought that he would often have to cook more in the future, and it was time to add monthly silver to Feng Niangzi, well, I will talk to Feng Niangzi tomorrow.
After eating and drinking, Master Hua San pulled Shen Xiao to see his newly drawn illustrations.
The matter of drawing illustrations for the book is not decent for a scholar who treats money as dung, so except for those who are very close to him, Master Hua San has never said it to anyone, even Hua Jingyao found it himself.
And when Hua Jingyao found out about this at that time, the little fox was also there.
Therefore, in the eyes of Master Hua San, Shen Xiao already knew.
"At first, I thought that drawing illustrations was a very simple task, but when I actually drew them, I realized that it was not easy to draw all the illustrations, first of all, I had to know what the book was about, and the personality and identity of each person......
These words, Master Hua San didn't even say his baby girl.
Shen Xiao couldn't help nodding and didn't speak, but he could see that he listened and watched very seriously.
Master Hua San thought to himself: It is still the Yongguo Mansion that will raise his children, and Shen Sigongzi did not grow up in the Guogong Mansion, he is still calm and introverted, deep and empty, and the light is the same as the dust. This kind of bearing alone compares those noble children in the capital.
Shen Xiao was a little helpless, he didn't know how to draw, how could he praise Master Hua San for painting well, if he was wrong, Miss Hua would know about it, and she would definitely laugh at him.
Forget it, then don't talk about it, it's always okay not to speak.
When he came out of Master Hua San's house, Master Hua San gave Shen Xiao a new painting of his.
Painted a fat and fat raccoon cat, the painting said: cat fat family run.
By the time Shen Sigongzi returned to his house, the house had already burned a brazier, and there was steaming water for washing feet on the stove.
Ping An sighed infinitely: "Master Huasan is really a kind person, son, we can't eat for nothing." ”
Shen Xiao didn't speak, of course he wouldn't eat for nothing.
What's more, Master Hua San said that as long as he comes to Zhelu Lane in the future, he can go to eat and drink.
Yes, Shen Xiao didn't think that Master Hua San was kind words, he took it seriously.
Fortunately, Master Hua San is also serious.
It's a coincidence that two real people got together.
It's just that this house has been vacant for too long, and it can't be warmed by just a few braziers that are burned temporarily, but fortunately, these people are young men, with strong firepower, and they are resistant to cold and cold.
In the middle of the night, Shen Xiao woke up, he was not awakened by freezing, but heard the movement outside.
That's why he's going to stay in Zhelu Lane tonight.
Zhelu Lane is a separate courtyard, and when the person sent to keep an eye on him comes back, he will know it immediately.
And the Guogong Mansion is too big, even if it is his guard, it is not easy to see him when he returns to the mansion in the middle of the night.
The person who came was the one who went to Wang Jing's house.
"The fourth son, he went to Wang Jing's house, he didn't go out, but after dinner, he and his second brother went into the house and closed the door. It was overheard in their conversation, Wang Jing told his second brother that the criminal in the strange bird case had committed another crime and had killed five people, Wang Jing asked his second brother to sell the news early tomorrow morning, and said that this case was a bit secret, and it was likely that it would not be investigated publicly, so the news should be sold more expensive, and at least fifty percent of the usual price would be added. ”
Shen Xiao twisted his eyebrows and asked, "Did they mention who they want to sell the news to?" ”
"They didn't mention it." The guard said.
