Chapter 40: Suzhou (End)
The bones of the children were placed in the altar for twenty-five years, and even if they were dug up, they could not find anything to prove their identity, so they could not return the bodies to their families, so they could only be buried in one place after being recorded in the file.
After a sleepless night, the catchers of the yamen were all spread on the ground and tired into dogs, sleepiness and hunger fought in their brains, and finally sleepiness was even better.
"Buns... Boss, I smell the buns! Chen Xiu got up and smacked his horn, sniffing and sniffing like a dog.
Liao Zicheng: "I'm hallucinating when I'm hungry, the kitchen isn't on fire." ”
Chen Lin didn't bother to pay attention to him, closed his eyes and continued to sleep. Zhan Suiyu lay on the only couch and frowned, after so many days, he finally finished the affairs of the Zang family, he just wanted to sleep well now, but Chen Xiu was so noisy that he didn't let people rest.
"Chen Xiu... Shut up, and you will be deducted from your wages again! ”
Chen Xiu sniffed, the fragrance was getting closer and closer, he opened his eyes, not only saw the food, but also saw Zhang Qining leaning leisurely outside the door, admiring their tired and paralyzed appearance with his hands, and nodded to him when his eyes touched him.
"Zhang, Miss Zhang?! And food! ”
Zhang Qining?
Zhan Suiyu got up suddenly, and those guys pounced on them like hungry wolves when they saw the food.
"Buns! Gruel! And spring rolls! ”
"Miss Zhang, you are really timely rain, no, fairy!"
"Miss Zhang, you're welcome!"
"You're welcome, it was originally prepared for you, and you have all worked hard." Zhang Qining smiled, followed her Zhang family to put down the food and retreated, she walked in and took a bowl of porridge, and the two buns walked towards Zhan Suiyu.
"The exhibition consultant also eats, don't be polite to me."
The others were very discerning to make room for them, and by the way, they also emptied the food.
"Childe, Miss Zhang, let's go out to eat. After eating, find another place to get a good night's sleep. Slow talk! ”
Zhang Qining: "Everyone is very discerning, and it should be very convenient for the yamen to do things." ”
Zhan Suiyu took a sip of porridge, and a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth. "No, that's just the time when the brains of those guys are full of light."
"Zang Binghua looked for me." Zhang Qining said lightly.
"He? What does he ask you for? Could it be that the Zang family still wants to make a deal with the Zhang family? ”
Zhang Qining: "That's not it, he's here to resign." ”
Early this morning, the genius was bright. I'm afraid I'll have to be busy overnight to turn over the underground of Zang's house, Zhang Qining asked the inn to make breakfast, and on a whim, he was going to go to the yamen to be a good person, and by the way, he would visit a class.
"Bang, bang, bang."
There were sounds from the window, and she opened the window to see a date smashed at her, and she caught it and looked down from above.
I saw Zang Binghua dressed in a navy blue suit, carrying a burden, holding a handful of dates in one hand, and holding a fan in the other, and saw her probe waving straight at her.
"Sister, come down and talk!"
Zhang Qining went downstairs and looked him up and down, looking like he was going to travel far away. "Are you going to leave Suzhou?"
"Exactly."
To be honest, Zhang Qining was a little surprised. Although the Zang family is a mess now, Zang Binghua said that throwing it is too neat. "Don't think about it anymore? Even if you don't inherit the family business, you can use the rest of your savings to make a living in Suzhou. ”
Zang Binghua: "Forget it, no matter how shameless I am, I still have self-knowledge." The matter of the previous head of the family was full of turmoil in the city, and the descendants of the Zang family were also shouted and beaten like rats crossing the street, and as far as I know, Zang Chengji's family had already left. ”
"What about Li, is she willing to go with you?"
"No, she wanted to stay, and I agreed. The road is chosen by yourself, and if you suffer once, you will learn to be obedient, and if you want to stay, let her stay. The Zang family's money is not clean, but it is better to return to dust. I listened to my sister, so I did it myself. ”
In my impression, Zang Binghua has always imitated his father, whether it is words and deeds or his future, there is always a falsehood in his eyes, full of greasy, and he lives for some reason. broke free from the cage of the Zang family, only to find that he could also smile so heartily, not sad about the autumn wind, not sighing for the snow and winter, and freely blending into the beautiful things in this world. I don't know what the future holds, but at least he's like a teenager now.
"He came here early in the morning to say goodbye to you, this kid..."Zhan Suiyu took a bite of the bun, and felt that Zang Binghua had bad intentions.
Zhang Qining didn't care.
"He said that I helped him at Zang's house, and I should be grateful to be a man. Zang Jintian has no feelings for him, and Li looks at Wang's face and acts, although his parents are not much different from him.
In order to survive in the Zang family, in order to protect himself, it is understandable that he chose to imitate Zang Jintian, and perhaps in his opinion, the four words of the head of the family can represent a lot of things. For example, the attitude towards outsiders, the attitude towards parents, wives and children. ”
"Brothers, parents, wives and children..."Zhan Suiyu sighed, "I don't know how many families have entered the Zang family's matter, I only see 'every family has a difficult scripture', but I don't know why the people who were originally related by blood came to this point." ”
Zhang Qining: "It's very simple, because people are often husbands and people, and then family." Sometimes the bloodline doesn't say anything, and it is precisely because there is a request without worries that there will be harm without worries. Judging feelings by blood relationship seems to me to be very arbitrary. ”
Zhan Suiyu doesn't know what Zhang Qining has experienced, and she doesn't know what kind of growth environment the Zhang family has, but when she says this kind of thing, she should lack a person's initial emotional accumulation - for example, family affection.
"Qi Ning, you sit down." He patted it in front of him.
After Zhang Qining sat down, he saw him unceremoniously take her as a pillow and put his head on her lap, Zhang Qining pinched his face and said, "Who said in front of my brother that he wanted to respect himself?" ”
"There's no one else here. You're going to leave for Lantai in two days, right? ”
"Hmm."
"The yamen is going to be busy for a while now, I probably... I can't accompany you..."
Zhang Qining smiled: "Okay, I don't care about these things." It's been a busy night, it's been hard, go to sleep. ”
"Qi Ning."
"Huh?"
Zhan Sui Yu grabbed her hand and said drowsily: "I will go to Lantai as soon as possible... Give me a good wait..."
As soon as he finished saying the last word, Zhan Sui Yu fell asleep, Zhang Qining stroked his stretched brow with his other hand, his clear eyes were like a layer of gentle tulle, but they were clearly rich and profound, and he remembered the starry eyebrows and eyes of the person in his arms little by little, and responded softly: "Okay." ”
*
The day I left, outside the city.
Zhang Qining sat on the horse and looked at the tea stall that had been dusted all the time, probably no one except her would think that the pile of waste on the side of the road was originally a tea stall.
Passing by her, Zhang Tingyu called out to her: "What are you looking at?" ”
"A tea stall."
Twenty-five years is a long time. But fortunately, I didn't have time to wait.
Zhang Tingyu was puzzled: "Are you thirsty?" ”
"Nope. Drive! ”
She rode her horse and ran out all at once, and Zhang Tingyu followed her and shouted: "Zhang Qining, you are going to die!" I don't care if I fall! Do you hear the stinky girl, hold steady! Why are you stunned, why don't you chase after it? Drive! ”
The sound of horses' hooves lit up the wind coming from all directions, and Xu was agitated by the blossoming of a tree, Zhang Qining couldn't help but smile.
Zhan Sui Yu, let's see you in Lantai.
