Chapter 104: The Merchant
Si Linche nodded in agreement, and walked to the person by Yun Genggeng's sleeve.
The children who grew up in the countryside were the most curious, and when they saw someone coming, they all stopped and pricked up their little ears to look at the three of them. Seeing that they didn't recognize themselves, Yun Genggen remembered the change in his current dress, and took the initiative to come forward to greet him: "Hello, I'm Yun Genggeng."
The first to confirm Yun Genggeng's identity was the boy who had been cared for by the original owner, and the boy looked at Yun Genggeng carefully, and his little eyes were full of great shock: "Sister Geng Geng? How did you become so pretty? ”
Yun Geng smiled, touched his head, and deliberately teased him: "If you have vision, you will definitely be able to marry a daughter-in-law who is better looking than your sister in the future."
The boy snorted twice, blushed, and refused to speak.
Although the other children were not familiar with Yun Geng Geng before, the news of Yun Geng Geng Fei's rise to prominence had already spread in this small village. For a while, it even became a must-talk after dinner, so Yun Genggeng is not unfamiliar to these children.
Seeing that they didn't contradict their intentions, Yun Geng Geng knew in his heart, so he raised his hand and took out a paper bag from his sleeve: "Try my sister's new dim sum, if it's delicious, my sister will bring it to you next time."
Where have the children seen such exquisite and delicious food, they eat happily for a while, and Yun Genggen still understands that the child can talk to them, and he is a self-cooked character, so the children completely let go of their vigilance against Yun Geng and know everything.
Si Linche watched Yun Genggeng mingle with a group of children, only to feel that Yun Genggeng was full of fun, and couldn't help but smile slightly with Yun Genggeng, gently hooking the corners of his mouth.
It's a pity that Yun Genggen was only busy with important things, and didn't pay much attention to this side, and when he saw that the time was ripe, he said: "Sister asks you something, you must answer truthfully, otherwise my sister will never bring you snacks again."
The children nodded their heads.
"Look, this courtyard," Yun Geng pointed at him, "Has it been abandoned for a long time?"
A little girl said, "Yes, the house has been empty for as long as I can remember."
"Has anyone ever been in this house lately? Has anyone seen it? Yun Geng continued to induce diligently.
The little girl thought for a while, then shook her head and said, "Sister Geng Geng, I didn't see it."
Si Linche also squatted down, on a par with a group of small beans, and said gently: "Tell my brother, have any people from other villages been here recently?"
This time, the boy thought of it first, and said seriously: "Yes! There was a merchant before the heavy rain! ”
Yun Genggeng's eyes lit up and asked, "Is the merchant still in the village now?"
"Yes! It was hard to walk in the heavy rain before, and the merchant lived in Da Zhuang's house, sister, let's take you there! ”
After walking for a moment in the sun, the children jumped up and led the three of them to a somewhat dilapidated house. The gate was open, there was no one in the courtyard, Yun Geng was thinking about whether to shout to let him know, when he saw a group of little beans rushing in, obviously they all came often.
"Let's go inside." Si Linche turned to her and said.
There were no adults in the house, only a half-old child with a wooden scoop and watering vegetables in the yard. It turned out that Da Zhuang and Li Zheng went to repair the river embankment together, and the merchant had a good relationship with the people in the village, so he was also fished out as a coolie, leaving only one child at home to guard the yard.
"Sister Geng Geng, it's hot outside, come into the house, my dad doesn't know when he will come back, you drink some water first."
Yun Geng said: "Really sensible."
The three of them found a place to sit down, but the children were idle, and they all went to the yard in groups to play. There is a small pool of stagnant water in the yard, and the children are running and jumping, which is very lively.
Yun Genggen leaned back, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and was thinking about finding a system to change the pack of tissues to wipe it, when suddenly his eyes fell on the flat shoulder in the corner.
This flat pole is a little larger than what Yun Geng has ever seen, and it is angular and angular.
Si Linche also noticed the flat burden, walked over and looked at the style and said, "It's not an ordinary person's flat burden, it should be a merchant's burden."
Yun Genggen turned his head to look out, and saw that a group of children were playing happily, and no one paid attention to this side, so he went over and pulled open the rag covering the flat shoulder.
Coarse salt, caramel sugar, small hubs...... Yun Geng turned it over, and it was all the stuff in the shoulders of some ordinary merchants.
Yun Genggen sighed in disappointment, and was about to put things in order, when Si Linche on the side suddenly grabbed her hand and said in a deep voice, "Wait."
Si Linche took out a piece of paper from the bottom of the flat pole, which had been deformed by the weight of the goods. Si Linche carefully flattened the paper gently, looked down, his eyebrows were dyed with a smile, and said loudly: "Sure enough."
This smile turned out to be like the pear blossom in June, gentle and fluttering.
Yun Geng came back to his senses: "What's wrong?" Problematic with paper?"
"Look," Si Linche pointed the paper at the sun, and faintly saw a Si word, and Yun Geng was also shocked when he saw this.
"This is the secret seal of our Si family, only on the paper of the Si family."
After speaking, he calmed down again, and his voice was a little cold: "Sure enough, it has something to do with Si Wenyuan."
Yun Genggeng now understands Si Wenyuan's character, since he interfered in this matter, it has nothing to do with Luo Xiaozhou's death!
Si Yi, who had been silent for a long time, saw the paper, remembered that he had been misunderstood as a murderer, hated Si Wenyuan very much, gritted his teeth and said: "Since the physical evidence has been found, I will go to Si Wenyuan now to ask for clarification!"
Si Linche grabbed him and shook his head: "It's just a piece of paper, it's far from enough to bring him down."
Si Yi knew that Si Wenyuan was vicious, and he could be so ruthless to Si Linche that he almost died, thinking of Si Linche's scarred appearance before, as if in Si Wenyuan's eyes, other people's lives were like mustard, and his heart was even more angry.
Si Linche looked outside lightly, sat back on the chair, and said, "This matter is in a hurry, it can't fall short, you might as well wait for the merchant to come back."
Si Yi snorted, a little disappointed, and a little indignant, and went to sit on the threshold.
Yun Genggen paid attention to Si Linche's expression and sighed: "What is Si Wenyuan doing this?"
Si Linche seemed to have countless sword lights and sword shadows flashing in front of him, all thanks to Si Wenyuan. In the eyes of some people, flesh and blood affection is always not worth the wealth.
With a paper life and bloody hands, it is ridiculous that such a person can sit in the hall with thousands of family fortunes.
Si Linche snorted coldly and knocked lightly on the table, unable to see what the look was in his eyes.
"yes, what the hell is he for?"
