CHAPTER XX: Letters
Tang Shu asked the little girl about some detailed plots.
"Are you going?" The little girl looked at her and asked, she was only ten years old, and her childish appearance was very cute, but occasionally she was also naughty.
"I don't know. Not sure why I should go. Don't tell your aunt about this. Tang Shu said, "I'll buy you candy man!" ”
"Cut! If you don't buy me candy, I won't say it! I'm worried that my aunt will beat me. She doesn't seem to want you to know about it. ”
"Even you can see it." Tang Shu smiled slightly. Although she didn't know why, the other party should have hidden it from her out of good intentions.
"We are children, not fools!" The little girl grimaced at her, and Tang Shu couldn't help laughing.
Thinking of Shi Xu, Tang Shu suddenly showed a complicated expression.
When she went to bed at night, she shook her clothes and was about to fold them, when a yellow paper leaf rolled into a thin tube fell, turned a few corners, and fell smoothly to the ground.
It was the brown paper that was found in Tang Shu's room.
I don't know how Xu Shuda is now. Tang Shu frowned, and thought with a headache, you shouldn't be angry with me for a while, hey, don't say hello or get angry, etc., I guess I don't want to see myself again, Tang Shu kneaded the kraft paper in annoyance.
It's been a mess lately!
Business was bustling at noon. The shopkeeper and the shopkeeper's wife are busy with their feet not touching the ground, Tang Shu is also busy, and the little girl is also doing what she can with a bitter face, looking at the wrinkled little face, she is really a little girl who is not in pain if she doesn't play for a moment.
"Don Jr.! You go to my room, there's some broken silver under the pillow, go out and buy some fish, there's no here! The shopkeeper called out to her through the curtain.
"Okay!" Tang Shu also raised her voice in response. After washing the dishes, I washed my hands, wiped the sides of my clothes, and hurried to the backyard.
A tall shadow blocked her path.
"You're here."
The voice came from overhead, which made Tang Shu stunned very much, and took a step back very naturally.
"You, why are you here?" Tang Shu originally thought that Xu Shuda should be so angry with her that he didn't want to see her again, but who knew that there was no anger in his eyes, and some were just apologetic. Tang Shu guessed that he might already know about the women slandering her. Tang Shu suddenly felt that she didn't know what to say, but she became more and more uneasy. Sure enough, Xu Shuda said next-
"It's not that hard to find someone, with me." Xu Shuda's cat-like pupils flashed, "I know those things, this matter is not thoughtful, I have already punished them slightly, and they will not be able to chew the root of other people's tongues in the future." When he said this, his eyes suddenly froze.
Tang Shu couldn't help but get goosebumps, "What did you do?" ”
"You taught me that those who have many mouths should cut off their tongues." Xu Shuda sneered, and there was a hint of cruelty in that smile.
Tang Shu couldn't help but feel numb on her scalp, "They didn't hurt me anything, and this matter has passed!" Isn't it too cruel for you to do this? ”
Who knew that Xu Shuda looked at her in confusion, as if she was the one who had the problem, "You can do this kind of trick when you are ten years old, why have you become so bodhisattva-minded now." ”
This may sound ironic.
Tang Shu has been restless and anxious recently, and when he heard him say this, a nameless anger suddenly swelled up, and he roared hysterically, "I'm not the Tang Shu you think anymore!" She's dead! Dead, you know! ”
Xu Shuda looked at her, dumbfounded and worried.
Tang Shu suddenly felt again, why, why did he lose his temper at him, was he crazy? What's going on lately? Really, I feel so sleepy!
Xu Shuda's worried face suddenly became distorted. Not only his face, but also the sky, pale blue; eaves, red; The darkness, endlessly, pressed straight at her, what the hell was going on......
Before fainting, Tang Shu only heard one sentence, the distant ethereal one, "Here we go again!" ”
It was Xu Shuda who said it.
What's coming again? She thought. However, I didn't have time to think about it for too long, and soon fell into a boundless dream.
The sound of a carriage axle running over a strange road. The sound of vendors selling paper umbrellas and candy men. The sound of someone gossiping.
"What's the matter......" Tang Shu opened her mouth to speak, and it took her a lot of effort to see the face of the person in front of the bed.
"Awake?" It's the hostess.
Isn't it Xu Shuda? Tang Shu glanced around in confusion, only to see Xu Shuda seriously pouring the wine on the table into his mouth at the corner of the table. What's going on?
The proprietress understood her doubts and explained, "This person said that he originally wanted to go to a thatched house, but he accidentally walked in, and happened to meet you fainting on the ground for some reason, and then called us over, thanks to him, you didn't have an accident." ”
"Why did I faint?" It can't be some terminal illness, right?
"The doctor said that you are fine, but you are too tired, and you blame me! You've done too much work these days to do this, hey! When the proprietress said this, her tears were already about to fall, and she kept holding back, clearly blaming herself.
Tang Shu couldn't help but feel warm in her heart, and comforted her, "Isn't this what I'm going to do, blame me, why do you blame yourself so much, it makes me feel uncomfortable." ”
"Oh, I'll have to make it up to you in the next two days!" The proprietress swore an oath. Suddenly, I immediately remembered, "I stewed fish soup for you, and it's still below, I'll go and take a look, you lie down first!" After saying that, I hurried away, and when I walked to the door, I mixed it up, which was cute and funny.
Only Tang Shu and Xu Shuda were left in the room.
"You came in on the toilet and happened to see me?" Tang Shu asked in confusion.
"Make it up, you believe it." He said as if he didn't care.
Tang Shu sat up, the whole person was still a little dizzy, but Xu Shuda's words came again, always floating in her ears, and she finally couldn't help asking, "Do you know something, for my current symptoms?" It's me...... Amnesia...... Did it have it before? She paused as she said the words amnesia.
The wine was full of aroma.
The drinkers were muffled as if they had heard nothing.
"Xu Shuda, there can't really be anything, right?" Tang Shu looked at her like this, a sense of fear rose in her heart, could it be that there was some hidden disease in this body she had crossed over? In fact, after Tang Shu's death, she felt even more sorry for her life. If you are alive, you can always meet the day when you get better, and she is such a person, living to find a reason to live worthwhile. God knows why the heavens chose her as a small person here.
Tang Shu looked at Xu Shuda nervously.
He dangled one foot with a pensive expression.
Tang Shu called him weakly, "Xu Shuda ......"
“…… Hahahaha! Why are you so sensitive? How could anyone think of such a thing? Oh my God, why didn't I notice you had such a bad brain? Hahahaha! The guy suddenly burst into laughter, his lips were bright red, and a pair of cat's eyes were squinted into a thin slit.
Annoying!
It's so annoying!
Tang Shu turned around indignantly! Silently swears that in this life, you will definitely be cautious in your words in the face of this drunkard in front of you!
Xu Shuda laughed at her again before pushing the door and leaving, shouting to ask for another jar of wine.
As soon as the door closes.
The smiling face, like the water at low tide, revealing its bare sand, the corners of his eyes and mouth curved back to his original arc, straight, indifferent arc.
The flask slipped out of the red line of the loosened finger and dangled a few times in the air.
The next day.
A bearded man lifted the curtain and tore his loud voice, "Shopkeeper!" ”
The shopkeeper had already seen him, and that man was the messenger here.
The first messenger in the entire Yuyu Village was the shopkeeper's hotel. Because he gives a lot of money. In particular, I like to send Gu Jianmo's letter the most, because his reward is more generous. The people here don't know Gu Jianmo, and he only writes one Mo character in his letters on weekdays. People call him Mo Gongzi.
"It's Mo Gongzi's letter!" The messenger said beamingly.
Tang Shu stood on the railing upstairs and watched, her eyelids jumped.
After sending off the messenger, the shopkeeper called the shopkeeper's wife to read the letter, and the shopkeeper's wife looked at her with a smile downstairs, "Xiao Tang, do you want to come down and have a look too?" Mo'er must have mentioned you, so I'll save you later. "That's a little naughty.
A few of the guests downstairs who were eating looked up at her with a smile.
Tang Shu silently turned around to hide her face. To be calm, Tang Shu advised herself in her heart.
From time to time, the voice of the shopkeeper and the lady was heard.
"He said that the past two days have been relatively stable, and told us not to worry about it." The shopkeeper sighed and said, it can be seen that both of them really like this child. And Gu Jianmo is more like their parents than his biological father in their eyes.
"Then how can you not be concerned, he is on the battlefield after all!" Madame was a little excited.
"In the woman's opinion, besides, Mo Er's martial arts who can hurt him, I am ......in the palace" The shopkeeper who suddenly realized that he had missed half of his words stopped his mouth, glanced at Tang Shu who was bowing his head upstairs, and said, "Hmph, he won't be okay anyway!" ”
"Oops! Look at this, he mentioned Xiao Tang! The lady said, pointing to one of the letters.
Tang Shurao didn't want to hear it, and couldn't help but prick up her ears.
Madame read aloud, "Be sure to say one more word, don't let her run around, and please take care of her." ”
…… I'm not a child, so why take care of it! Don't run around yet, this Gu Jian Mo! Tang Shu pretended not to hear anything, and went straight to the backyard from the back door.
As soon as he came out a few steps, he saw a figure, and after a few steps, he turned into the shopkeeper's room.
