Chapter 298: Acquaintances
"I know everything, you can go at ease, I am at home." Although Liu Xiaoqiao was reluctant, he didn't dare to say more, and after packing his luggage, he pulled the corners of Mei Changgui's clothes, and his eyes were red.
Mei Changgui is also reluctant to give up his daughter-in-law, this is still a newlywed, his wife is hot every day, and he has a moist life, and he suddenly wants to leave his daughter-in-law, which is really not used to it.
Seeing that her daughter-in-law's eyes were red, her face was full of reluctance, and she said distressedly: "Daughter-in-law, don't worry, I'll come back first if it's okay, and I'll bring you the first flowers and delicious food in the city when the time comes." ”
Liu Xiaoqiao's parting was reluctant to give him all of a sudden, and he smacked him: "I'm not a three-year-old child anymore, and I still pointed you to go into the city and bring candy back?" ”
The little couple fell into trouble and broke up their sorrows.
Mrs. Li, Mei Xiaotong and An Huahao returned to the backyard, Mrs. Li went to pack her luggage, and An Huahao frowned: "There is no news from Qicheng yet, and I don't know what the situation is." ”
Mei Xiaotong sneered: "The worst case is just to trick us into going to Qicheng!" Mei Changan deliberately wants us to go to Qicheng, how can it not be as good as he wants? Besides, my foolish father, I don't know if it's a real illness or a fake disease, I have to find out! ”
After going to Qicheng, who regrets it is not necessarily! When the time comes, it will be easy to please God, and it will be difficult to send God! An Huahao thought for a while: "Tomorrow I will go to the county seat with you first, and then I will go to Qicheng overnight to see what the situation is, and I have a good bottom in my heart." Mei Changan is vicious, he has been going for more than half a month, maybe there is some trap, and after all, he has lived in Qicheng for a while, we are new to it, I am afraid of his way, so it is better to be careful. ”
"You take your mother and them to take your time behind, safety first, if your father is sick, I will think about it again."
Mei Xiaotong nodded, "Do you have someone over there in Qicheng?" ”
An Huahao said: "There was already a contact point on the Qicheng side, and there was something wrong last time, so I deliberately added some people on the Qicheng side." Do you remember Boss Ma and his brothers? ”
Mei Xiaotong naturally remembered that last time she was going to tell An Huahao about Boss Ma, but because An Huahao gave him two hairpins, the two of them forgot about it after a while.
Later, she built a house, Mei Changgui got married, and An Huahao was also by her side, so she didn't mention it again.
When I heard it at this moment, I looked at An Huahao suspiciously: "How did Boss Ma's group of people arrange it last time?" Mrs. Yu didn't ask you to go back? ”
An Huahao shook his head:
"Later, I asked Ma Boss if they wanted to follow me, they were still wild at that time, and they were used to living an unrestrained life, where were they willing to be restrained? Since they were not happy to follow me, Mrs. Yu asked them back within two days. ”
"And then?" Mei Xiaotong knew that An Huahao would not mention Boss Ma for no reason.
"I used to tell Boss Ma at the time,
If you regret it, just look for a store with this logo and contact me. An Huahao took out a wooden card from his arms and handed it to Mei Xiaotong.
Mei Xiaotong took the wooden card, this wooden card was heavy, like iron and wood, I couldn't tell what material it was, and there was a heavy word engraved on it.
"Then, almost two months ago, the contact point in Qicheng came with a message, saying that someone had found the contact point and said that he begged me to rescue Ma Lao Da and his people who were sold to the private mine in Qicheng, and that person died after saying the news."
The people at the contact point secretly buried that person, and according to the clues he left, they inquired slowly, only to learn that Boss Ma and the others were sold to a private mine by Mrs. Yu. However, he was tortured for more than ten days, and two people were directly killed because they wanted to run out. ”
"Boss Ma They knew that if they stayed any longer, there would be only one way to die, so they thought of a way, they knew some ways to beat people into suspended breath and fake death, and beat one of them into a state of suspended animation. He was carried out by the people from the private mine and thrown into the pit of the dead, and then crawled out and hid in Qicheng County. ”
"I had injuries on my body, I had no money for treatment, and I was afraid of being discovered, so I could only beg for a living, so I just walked to the contact point, and I didn't dare to go in during the day, and I didn't go in until night, and after explaining everything, I couldn't stand it."
"The people on my side, on the one hand, sent a letter over, and after determining the position of Boss Ma, they asked someone to give a lot of gifts, and only then did they buy a leader below, under the pretext that there was a shortage of people in the mines elsewhere, and they bought a few people over there."
Mei Xiaotong knew that there were so many things going on behind the scenes.
"So, you're telling me that you have manpower over there in Qicheng?"
An Huahao nodded: "When I sent my father to Qicheng, I instructed him to follow Mei Changan and his party all the way, so that any news could be transmitted back immediately." But this Mei Chang'an has asked people to bring the letter back, there is no news over there, maybe something happened, I have to go over and take a look. ”
What else can Mei Xiaotong say, she has to stuff the sign back into An Huahao's hand: "That's okay, just follow what you said, but you have to be careful all the way!" If there is really anything, as long as my father's life is not in danger, you don't come forward! ”
An Huahao nodded, but refused to take back the sign: "You keep this brand, in case something happens to me when I get to Qicheng, I don't have time to see you, you will take the sign......"
As he spoke, he lowered his head and whispered to Mei Xiaotong's ear, and whispered the contact points of Qi Cheng and the contact points of other places one by one.
"You remember all of this! Hold this sign, see the card as if you see me! An Huahao completely handed over all his forces to Mei Xiaotong's hands.
Mei Xiaotong wanted to refuse, but seeing An Huahao's serious eyes, she nodded and put the sign away.
An Huahao breathed a sigh of relief.
After the two discussed serious matters, An Huahao went back to pack his things, and Mei Xiaotong had time to find Mrs. Li.
Mrs. Li said that Mei Zhongzhong was a dead old man, and she felt that he was biased and confused, but when she heard that he was sick, although she didn't know if it was true or not, she was really unhappy in her heart.
Hastily packed his luggage and sat on the kang in a daze.
Seeing Mei Xiaotong come in, I cheered up
Come: "Everything is packed?" Your father, this old thing, is always in the sky, he doesn't stay at home, he has to go to some city. The result is good, the New Year has not yet ended, and the family is not at peace! Wait until I go to the county seat, see how I scold him? I know that I will follow the second brute to toss, and when I will toss and scatter a handful of old bones, it will stop......"
Mei Xiaotong hurriedly comforted: "Mother, don't be angry!" What is the situation now, I don't know until I get to the county seat, if my father is not sick, we must not let my father be in the city, if he is sick, he will also be taken back for treatment. ”
Mrs. Li gritted her teeth and scolded Mei Zhongzhong, barely discouraged.
Early in the morning, Mei Xiaoque drove the people to the town in a carriage.
Mei Xiaotong naturally wanted to find an old acquaintance, Lu Steward.
When he arrived at the dart game, Steward Lu first smiled when he saw Mei Xiaotong, and then looked at the family behind her, with a posture of going out, and immediately knew that there were some stories.
Hurriedly invited people to the house: "Miss Wang, Brother Song, where are you going?" ”
Generally speaking, there is no New Year's month, and few people go far away.
Mei Xiaotong explained the matter in a few words, and asked the Lu steward if the dart bureau had taken over the work of the county seat today, and if so, she would take their family, if not, she would directly ask the dart bureau people to get out of the carriage and escort them to Jing County.
Steward Lu nodded: "You are also lucky today, there is a dart to Jingxian in the afternoon to escort, you are so good and know each other, it is just right to go together." ”
Mei Xiaotong was about to ask who it was, when she heard a familiar voice: "Old Song?" Mei sister? Why are you here? ”
Looking back, who is Wu Zhongbao?
Behind him, there was a large crowd of people, both men and women, carrying large and small boxes onto the carriage.
"Brother Wu? Do you want Jing County too? What are you? Mei Xiaotong was strange in her heart, but Wu Dashan thought about waiting for the beginning of spring and sending Wu Zhongbao to the mountains to wave.
But at this time, he sent Wu Zhongbao to Jing County?
Don't mention it, since you mentioned that opinion last time, my old man has been forcing me to study these days, but has forced me to go out to relatives. What do you say that he is old, and these favors in the family will be handed over to me in the future! No, it hasn't stopped since the first day of the first lunar month, and the relatives in the town are all gone, leaving Jingxian and my relatives outside the family, so they have to rush me there. ”
Wu Zhongbao said helplessly, but in fact, he was still happy, if he went to his relatives, he would go to his relatives, at least it was better than forcing him to study.
When An Huahao heard this, he glanced at Wu Zhongbao with great sympathy,
Didn't make a sound.
Mei Xiaotong saw it in her eyes, her face was not obvious, and she still greeted her in her mouth: "That's right, we are also going to Jing County, we will go together, and we will take care of them on the way." ”
When Wu Zhongbao heard this, he was even happier: "That's great, I'm saying that it's too boring for no one to talk along the way." ”
The little guy who followed Wu Zhongbao and served him was very aggrieved: Young master, aren't we human?
Wu Zhongbao had already booked with the dart bureau, and the carriage was fully prepared, and as soon as the people arrived, the things could be loaded and left.
At this moment, with the Mei family, it's just that there are no one or two more people in the car.
Wu Zhongbao set the best car for the dart game, and invited Mrs. Li to sit in his car with An Huahao and Mei Xiaotong. Mrs. Li is embarrassed, although the son of Wu Dashan is very kind, she always feels a little uncomfortable, so she refuses immediately.
Wu Zhongbao didn't force it, and after letting people vacate a carriage for Mrs. Li and Mei Xiaotong alone, he pulled An Huahao into his car.
Mrs. Li watched suspiciously, An Huahao and Wu Zhongbao got into the same car, lowered the curtain, and whispered: "Why is this son of Wu Dashan so enthusiastic?" Still pulling Hua Hao's child in the same car? You won't like Hua Hao's good-looking child, right? ”
Mei Xiaotong almost didn't choke on her own saliva, and looked at Mrs. Li dumbfounded, dear mother, your imagination is so rich!
Even if Wu Zhongbao has some ideas, his little bit of force is like a three-year-old child in front of An Huahao, what can he do?
No, no, I was almost taken crooked!
After explaining to An Huahao and Wu Zhongbao for a long time, Mrs. Li was suspicious, staring at Wu Zhongbao's carriage in front of her along the way, completely forgetting the bumps in the carriage.
I was in good spirits all the way, until it was dark and stopped to rest and camp, and when Mrs. Li saw An Huahao get off the carriage, she hurriedly called him over and protected him.
Wu Zhongbao and other dart masters and subordinates made dinner, and enthusiastically ran over to invite everyone to eat together, but Mrs. Li categorically refused.
wanted to call An Huahao over, but Mrs. Li grabbed his sleeve and shouted that she had a headache and asked An Huahao to help her go back to the carriage to rest.
Although An Huahao didn't know what medicine was sold in Mrs. Li's gourd, she was still very filial and helped Mrs. Li back to the carriage.
Although Wu Zhongbao is more straightforward, people are not stupid, and he looked at Mei Xiaotong suspiciously: "Mei sister, does my aunt have an opinion on me?" How do I feel as if my aunt is guarding me? ”
Mei Xiaotong smiled embarrassedly: "No, no, Brother Wu, you misunderstood!" My mother is just afraid of life, the first time I go out, I am not used to it......"
Seeing that Wu Zhongbao didn't seem to believe it, he hurriedly changed the topic: "Brother Wu's foreign family is actually in Jing County?" There are so many academies in Jing County, why didn't Brother Wu study in Jing County? What about in the town? ”
There are countless academies in Jing County, not to mention the reputation of Evergreen Academy
Students from thousands of miles away can come to study.
This Wu Zhongbao's maternal grandfather's family is in Jing County, and he actually gave up his roots and ran back to Shiqiao Town to study?
When Wu Zhongbao heard this question, he immediately began to complain.
Not to mention, his maternal ancestor is the master of Evergreen Academy, and his mother can be regarded as a scholarly lady.
There are no other requirements after getting married, and the only requirement is that the children born, regardless of men and women, must be educated and reasonable.
Wu Dashan already respects and loves the wife of this scholarly family, where is he not from?
So after giving birth to Wu Zhongbao, Mrs. Wu began to teach thousand-character texts and three-character scriptures from the time Wu Zhongbao first learned to speak.
People first opened their mouths to call their fathers and mothers, and the first thing Wu Zhongbao said when he opened his mouth was Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang.
When I was three or four years old, I couldn't hold a pen at a young age, so I passed it on orally, and I could already recognize thousands of words in my stomach.
When she was five years old, Mrs. Wu was introduced by her mother's family and found a private school opened by Lao Xiucai who came back from Jing County in the town, and sent Wu Zhongbao to enlightenment.
Originally, he was preparing to be a little older, so he sent Wu Zhongbao to a foreign house, and then found a good master, and when he was successful, he could also enter the Evergreen Academy to study.
didn't expect Mrs. Wu to give birth to Wu Zhongbao
Son, the Wu family is such a lone seedling, where is Mrs. Wu willing to send it to a foreign family?
Looking for death and life, he insisted on staying at home until he was a teenager, and he was originally going to Jing County.
At that time, Mei Changan was highly qualified for reading, and the master in the countryside was afraid that he would be delayed, so he recommended this old showman here.
In the past, Wu Zhongbao was the disciple of the old Xiucai in the private school who had the highest hopes, but after Mei Changan came, it was the first time every time, and he was stunned to suppress Wu Zhongbao.
Of course Wu Zhongbao is not convinced, he has grown up being praised for his talent since he was a child, although Mei Changan is older than him, he thinks he is not bad.
After comparing it a few times, it is indeed inferior to others, a teenager is full of spirit, and he has also spoken cruelly to Mei Changan.
Mei Changan smiled in front of him, no matter how cruel Wu Zhongbao was, he treated it as if it was nothing.
Wu Zhongbao thought that Mei Changan was scared at first, but since then, Wu Zhongbao has often been unlucky, always losing things or making mistakes.
was stunned from Lao Xiucai's beloved disciple to Lao Xiucai's headache when he heard it.
Wu Zhongbao thought that he was unlucky at first, but after three or four times, he realized that something was wrong, and after careful observation and pondering, he found that Mei Changan was in it.
Then he was even more angry, and the two of them were on the bar with Mei Changan.
Mei Changan's reading talent is higher than Wu Zhongbao's, and he really can't surpass it.
is also older than him, and he can't beat him if he wants to teach him a lesson.
After thinking about it for a long time, Wu Zhongbao simply found another way, learned martial arts, and used the reason to strengthen his body, so that his father and mother found a dart master, and after practicing hard for half a year, he would grow Mei
Ann beat her nose and swollen face, and she felt a sense of accomplishment.
At this point, the mind was crooked from Xuewen all the way to Xuewu, and the nine horses couldn't pull it back.
Especially after Mei Changan later became famous at a young age, and Wu Zhongbao spent most of his thoughts on practicing martial arts, and was scolded by the old Xiucai for being a martial artist, not doing his job, and being willing to fall, so his results naturally became worse and worse.
Wu Zhongbao was scolded a lot by Lao Xiucai, so he simply broke the jar. Thinking that he couldn't surpass Mei Changan in this article, he simply took the martial arts test.
One mind is to find famous teachers to learn martial arts.
After Mrs. Wu and Wu Dashan found out, they wanted to send Wu Zhongbao to his home outside Jing County, so that he could accept the edification of the fragrance of books and correct his thoughts.
Wu Zhongbao thought that he was quite talented in martial arts, and he was definitely stronger than Mei Chang'an, so he naturally refused to go to Jing County.
also threatened his father and mother that if he was sent to Jing County, he would never marry a daughter-in-law in his life, so that the Wu family would be left behind.
What else can Mrs. Wu and Wu Dashan do? The lone bear child born by himself, no matter how bearish it is, he can endure it as a parent.
After all, the two of them are also old, and it is too late to practice a trumpet again, so they have to coax each other.
In the end, they compromised with each other, Wu Zhongbao did not go to Jing County, and Mrs. Wu asked her mother's family to invite back a more powerful master, and taught Wu Zhongbao to be admitted to Xiucai first, and then talk about other things.
This master is also really powerful, although he only taught Wu Zhongbao for two or three years, but he also let Wu Zhongbao be admitted to Xiucai after Mei Changan.
After winning the show, Mrs. Wu and Wu Dashan didn't dare to think about anything else, so they begged Wu Zhongbao to start a family first, this son was disobedient and gave birth to a grandson, so they could hope with the next generation.
Wu Zhongbao is not stupid, why can he do whatever he wants? Because he is the only seedling in the family!
If he marries a wife and has children, can the family still be so accustomed to him? Besides, you can't throw things you don't like to your future son? Why should you listen to them for everything?
For this reason, he made a grand wish that he would not start a business or a family!
Wu Dashan can't help it, okay, you start a business first, and you move in the middle! Yes, read a book!
Wu Zhongbao is not! I want to take the martial arts test!
