Chapter 229
Shen Zaishi glanced at the children and grandchildren who were holding back their laughter with their heads down, and gave them an angry look, and then gave Chu Datou, who had been smirking in front of him, a violent slap.
"I ask you how you've spent the past few decades!"
"Oh! Oh! Yeah! Chu Datou was angry and aggrieved when he was beaten by Shen Zaishi, but he looked very happy and happy.
Shen Zaishi rolled his eyes speechlessly, Chu Datou didn't want to make his own eldest young master angry again, so he said: "The slave originally wanted to take a piece of golden cake given by the eldest young master to redeem himself, but Uncle Qiao didn't let it, saying that the golden cake would bring disaster to the slave." He told me to hide the gold cake so that no one could find it. The slave didn't believe it at first, but when he saw that the old lady's sister Qiying in front of her took the silver she had saved and wanted to redeem herself, but she was robbed of the silver and sold to the building, the slave was scared, but fortunately the slave listened to Qiaobo's words! ”
"And then?"
Later, because the slave was not very old, he was not sold to the mine like other people in the house, and the slave was lucky, and was sold to a county magistrate who was about to go to Fujian, and followed the family to Fujian. The family treated the slave quite well, the slave worked in his house for six years, the county order was promoted, and he was going to Shu to be an official, and the slave got the opportunity to ask for a grace and redeem himself! The slave wanted to come back to find the eldest young master, but the slave had found a lot of people over the years to inquire about the whereabouts of the eldest young master, but there was no accurate letter, some said that our Shen family returned to the ancestral land of Suzhou, some said that they were sent to the northwest, and some people said that the eldest young master was no longer alive! The minions didn't spend a lot of money, but they didn't get any useful news! ”
"Hey! It's no wonder you can't ask! At that time, we were also afraid that those people would cut the grass and eradicate the roots, so we deliberately hid our tracks, thinking of hiding in the city, and settled in Zhuxian Town, which is not far from Bianjing City. Fortunately, there were 100 acres of land and an old mansion here, which was left by my great-grandmother to marry, and luckily escaped the raid! Shen Zaishi said with emotion.
"The slave said that the eldest young master is blessed with a great life, and he will definitely not die!" Chu Datou suddenly said this, which made Shen Zaishi stunned for a moment, and then gave Chu Datou a violent slap in anger.
Chu Datou rubbed his big head and said with a smirk: "The eldest young master doesn't hurt!" ”
Shen Zaishi looked at the sky speechlessly, took a deep breath and asked, "What about after you redeem yourself?" What are you doing again? ”
"Oh! The slave heard that there were people in Quanzhou who made a lot of money in the sea ship business, so they also wanted to try their luck with it. The slave used the gold cake given by the eldest young master to buy a batch of porcelain and tea, rented a cabin and went to sea! The minions were lucky, the porcelain and tea were not in good condition, so they were sold for a good price, and when they returned, the minions sold a batch of gems with the silver they earned. Fortunately, the minions exchanged the silver for the gems, and did not keep the silver or exchange it for other items. On the way back, the minion's boat was caught in a strong storm and the entire ship was overturned. The slave was able to escape by lying on a sampan, and later encountered a Westerner's big ship, and was rescued by them, so the slave gave them as a guide and took them back to Quanzhou. The minions had been floating in the sea for so long, and the luggage they had brought with them was long gone, leaving only one of those gems hidden in the clothes by the minions! The slave returned to Quanzhou and sold the gem, which was the first pot of gold! ”
