Chapter 238: Trapped
Chapter 238: Trapped
After Hongling and Xiaoqing talked for a while, Xiaoqing was ready to go back early, and she really didn't worry about leaving the things in the restaurant to others to take care of, especially now that the whole restaurant was in the turmoil of public opinion, many former regular customers did not dare to approach the restaurant because of Liu Ruolan's matter.
It's also strange to say, it stands to reason that the first thing those people should arrest is Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing is already fully prepared, waiting for these people to bring her back for interrogation, but no one has ever suspected her, which makes Xiaoqing very unexpected.
Hongling, too, was very worried about Xiaoqing's safety, so she wanted her to stay together and stay in the station, but Xiaoqing refused, she was no longer the little girl she was three years ago, she had her own decision, and was determined to treat the restaurant as her own career to struggle, so she was unwilling to give up her career like this anyway, and it was also beneficial to have someone in the city to do the reception.
Thinking of this, Hong Ling pinched Xiaoqing's hand and thought for a while, and said slowly: "If there is any difficulty, or if someone finds her, even if my location is exposed, it is important to save my life first."
Xiaoqing smiled, hugged Hongling, and said, "Miss, don't worry, I have my own measure."
In this way, Xiaoqing was sent back to the restaurant by the boundless people.
Early the next morning, Jiang Zhong came to the restaurant to find Xiaoqing.
Jiang Zhong actually just wanted to see what Liu Ling'er's people looked like, but he didn't expect that it was Xiaoqing from the old city, and after a little puzzlement, he sighed and said, "I didn't expect you to be so mixed up now."
Xiao Qing naturally heard Jiang Zhong's ridicule of himself in and out of his words, but Xiao Qing thought that this was Hongling's father, and no matter what, there would be nothing unfavorable to Hongling, so he welcomed him into the Accord very enthusiastically.
"Xiaoqing has seen the master."
Jiang Zhong nodded slightly, "It seems that Ling'er was indeed taken away by you."
Xiaoqing hesitated for a moment, shook her head slowly, and said, "I don't know the whereabouts of Miss."
"Don't know? As far as I know, when she disappeared, it was just lunch with the emperor here. ”
Xiaoqing didn't deny it, "When the emperor came here, I didn't know, so I didn't meet Miss, so I didn't have the ability to take Miss Jiang out."
Jiang Zhong didn't rush to argue with Xiaoqing, but took out a letter from his sleeve and put it on the table, "This is a letter to Ling'er, if you have the heart, help me bring it to her, if you are really embarrassed, just put it here with you, one day she will come back to you, and you can give it to her when the time comes."
Xiaoqing looked at the letter on the table, and felt a little entangled in her heart, if the position of the young lady was exposed, then she would be a sinner, but this letter ......
Just when Xiaoqing was still hesitating, Jiang Zhong had already gotten up and gone outside, without saying a word, Xiaoqing saw Jiang Zhong leave, looked back at the letter on the table, and frowned slightly.
In any case, the position of the young lady is an extremely secret matter, now that Jiang Zhong has come to find him, most people must have doubts about the restaurant, if he is in a hurry at this time, he will throw himself into the net, it is better to simply live as if nothing happened, and then send the letter out when there is a suitable opportunity.
After making this decision, Xiaoqing carefully hid the envelope in his clothes, and then walked out of the Accord as if he had nothing to do, and started his daily work.
At the same time, Hong Ling also formally met with Zou Shi in the station, about Zou Shi, Hong Ling only heard Xiuxiu talk a few days ago, saying that Chen Jinye specially visited the traveling doctor who came back, and he has a great ability, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with finding him for diseases that ordinary people can't treat, remembering that the box of very good ointment that Chen Jinye used for himself was also from Zou Shi's hand, so Hong Ling had already given birth to some admiration before she saw Zou Shi.
After all, this is Chen Jinye's master, a teacher for one day and a father for life, and now that Chen Jinye's family is gone, Zou Shi is like his father, just like his father.
Hongling grabbed her grip a little nervously, and it wasn't until Mo Wubian brought Zou Shi over that she relieved some of her nervousness a little.
"Mr. Zou, I met for the first time after a long time."
Zou Shi looked at the woman in front of him, and sighed with some pity, "Actually, I've seen you a long time ago, but you haven't seen me", Zou Shi finished speaking, and didn't explain much, so he sat down, looked at Hongling's appearance, and shook his head helplessly.
"How much do you really know about your fate?"
Hong Ling was slightly stunned, the first time someone asked her this question, fate, is this kind of nothingness real?
Thinking of this, Hong Ling bit her lip, nothingness, speaking of nothingness, what could be more nihilistic than coming to this world inexplicably?
"Mr. Zou, I don't know what you're talking about."
"Don't know?" , Zou Shi asked rhetorically, staring at Hongling's eyes, "You really don't know why you came to this world?" ”。
Hong Ling instantly recalled countless pictures, some seemed to be talking, some seemed to be admonishing, but she seemed to ignore the past at that time.
Seeing Hongling's dazed appearance, Zou Shi didn't ask too many questions, and only muttered leisurely: "It seems that you are also a poor person who was harmed."
As soon as Hong Ling wanted to ask, she saw Zou Shi put away her grim expression and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, you are the daughter-in-law of my apprentice, maybe you can also call me a master."
Hong Ling was stunned for a moment, called Master Zou Shi? But I ...... Hong Ling pursed her lips, then looked at Zou Shi with a smile, and then called: "Master."
"Huh!".
Zou Shi looked very excited, and hurriedly called the soldiers outside to come in and deliver a pot of tea, and then said: "When you and Ye'er got married, you only gave me tea, I think that Ye'er will be an apprentice in my life, I also treat him as my own child, and it has always been my regret that I didn't drink the tea respected by the people he apclaimed, I don't know if you can ......."
Hongling didn't say much, she directly stepped forward to take the teapot, poured a cup very formally, and then knelt down towards Zou Shi, offered the tea, and said: "Master is above, Ling'er is willing to serve the master as her own father, and in the future, I will replace Chen Jinye to honor your old man, about Chen Jinye, I have always wanted to say sorry, but I don't know who to say, I will say it to you today, I'm sorry, I was wrong."
When she finished saying this, Hong Ling's hand holding the tea trembled slightly, and her eyes were red, it could be seen that she was trying to restrain the pathos in her heart, and Zou Shi naturally knew that Chen Jinye's death was also extremely tragic for this woman, and this kind of grief was no less than herself.
Zou Shi squeezed his fist faintly, he was also a little uncomfortable, slowly took the tea in Hongling's hand, and said, "You should know that Ye'er has never blamed you."
Hong Ling bit her lip to the point where she would take back her tears, and when she heard Zou Shi's words, Hong Ling bit her lip hard.
"It's because I know that he really never blames me, and he is always worried about my safety, and when he is about to worry, he is worried that I will find a way to continue living because of my guilt, so I am even more sorry and feel that I am not a thing."
Zou Shi reached out and touched the head of Hongling, who was kneeling on the ground, and said slowly: "Didn't he give you a chance to avenge him, let's avenge him together, everything will be fine, everything will be fine......."
In the end, Zou Shi's voice also choked slightly, after all, so many people died, and even cold-blooded people couldn't help but be infected by these blood.
After helping Hong Ling, who was kneeling on the ground, to get up, Zou Shi saw that Hong Ling was still sad, so he said: "Speaking of which, Ye'er hasn't learned anything from me well, and now this time is still empty, so it's better for you to learn a little from me."
Hongling glanced at Zou Shi with a little hesitation, studying medicine? I don't have any foundation at all.,This is a life-threatening skill.,If you're not careful, you'll die.,How can you learn it casually.。
Thinking of this, Hongling waved her hand and said, "Master, don't be joking, I'm not good at curing diseases and saving people, and I may not be able to learn from you."
Hearing Hongling say this, Zou Shi immediately sat down again in grief, his wrinkled hands hung on his knees, his back was slightly hunched, and he suddenly looked much older.
Thinking of this, Hongling's heart immediately softened, stepped forward to hug Zou Shi, and said, "Master, although I am a rotten wood, if you don't dislike it, I will definitely study it seriously, and I will definitely carry forward your skills in the future."
"Really?"
Zou Shi's eyes lit up, and Hongling immediately had a feeling that she was being tricked, but she didn't dare to compare with him, after all, he was a respected old man, if he accidentally hurt his self-esteem or something because of his own words, then he would be too unfilial.
Obviously, Hongling is still too tender, and she doesn't know how Zou Shi treated Chen Jinye a few days ago, but the day she knew Zou Shi's old naughty character, Hongling was already too late to regret it, after all, ......
"In this case, if you want to learn my skills as my apprentice, you must first sign and draw a charge."
Hongling looked at Zou Shi, who was constantly adding terms on paper in the room, and couldn't react for a while, this is ...... How do you feel like you've been pitted.
