Chapter 181: The Woman's Secret
"How the prince treats your nephew, don't mention it, I don't have many opportunities to see it with my own eyes, so I just said that the general next to the prince, your nephew, he has to go first, because your nephew, I often have correspondence with him here. There are so many people in front of me, I can't mention a way forward, people who have no other way but to join him, what's so strange about entering his door? This is my good fortune. ”
Xu Huan's expression eased, but the doubts in his eyes were still there.
Guo Sheng leaned forward, "Let's go to see the Bai family on the dock that time, and we also received orders, your nephew let you take a look at the Bai family, how the family style is, you look at this scheming." She paid a lot of attention to the matter of the Bai family's sister's marriage, saying that it was a family like the Bai family that loved the child very much, and when she got married, she was just thinking about the child, but when she saw it, she thought too much. ”
Xu Huan blinked and glared at Guo Sheng.
Guo Sheng simply pulled the chair to Xu Huan's side, "I heard the general mention once, the general trend of the world, everyone in the court, your nephew has seen it very accurately, until now, you haven't missed it, this ability, this vision, is it powerful?" ”
"Really?" Xu Huan was surprised.
"Of course." Guo Sheng changed the two cold dishes that Xu Huan liked to eat in front of him.
"But," Xu Huan looked at Guo Sheng and said slowly: "I look at you, you are not a person who wants to make contributions. ”
Guo Sheng's hand moving the plate stiffened, and tilted his head to Xu Huan, "What you say, I can't say it's wrong, I really don't think much about glory, wealth, merit and fame, but I am a person who wants to do something practical, such as this coastal bandit, I have suffered since I was a child, and so is the rock, he became an orphan because of this banditry, otherwise, maybe he will be a jinshi now......"
Thinking of Jinshi Hu Panshi, Xu Huan almost burst out with joy......
"Mr. Donald admires your nephew, just one, saying that his pure heart is rare, and to be honest, I am too. He does things with his heart, and I do it with my heart, you," Guo Sheng patted Xu Huan on the shoulder a few times, "There are countless obstacles in the world, and I can't figure it out, you can also look at your heart, ask yourself, and the answer is self-evident." Let's eat. ”
Xu Huan picked up the chopsticks and ate in a muffled voice.
After the meal, the two came out, and halfway back, Xu Huan sighed, "My wife also said this." ”
"Where?" Guo Sheng, who was constantly turning his head to look at the husband around him, didn't react for a while.
"By heart." Xu Huan put his hands behind his back and sighed a few times, "I remember telling you that the wife and uncle, and the Xu family, have been fighting for decades, do you know why?" ”
Guo Sheng's heart jumped violently, he didn't look at the bearer and idlers, looked at Xu Huan and said with a smile: "You said that your wife is very powerful, shrewd and capable. ”
"A woman's family, no matter how powerful she is, what can she do? No matter how shrewd she is, she can't stand being unreasonable and shameless, her wife has a nephew, her own nephew, she is at sea, which gang of two masters is very close to her mother-in-law, and she often asks people to give her this and that. Xu Huan lowered his head with his hands behind his back and said as he walked.
Guo Sheng stumbled under his feet, and the girl mentioned it, he thought of what convenience there must be, but he didn't expect it......
"You're still ...... Really? Guo Sheng didn't hide it, gasped a few breaths, caught up with Xu Huan and asked.
"Or what? When I was a child, I also told my wife like this, and my wife said that she didn't know either, so I asked myself to ask my own heart, saying that I think it is, that is, I think it is not, it is not. That uncle, I've seen him many times, he's read, he's learned, he looks ......."
Xu Huan raised his chin and motioned to a thin and kind old man who met them, "Just like that, like a poor teacher, my uncle said that he was usually idle, so he taught everyone to read and write, and taught the children to read. Uncle said that there are many people like you and Panshi, who dare to kill people with knives when they walk, and are born bandits. ”
Guo Sheng slanted down at Xu Huan from the corner of his eye, but Xu Huan didn't look at Guo Sheng, looked forward and patted his clothes.
"My uncle said that they had an island, which was not small, with water and could grow crops, and as soon as they returned to the island, they would be home, and he said that he had already chosen a cemetery on the island."
"That's one of the best in the world." Guo Sheng stretched out his hand on Xu Huan's shoulder, giggled, Xu Huan raised his hand to pat Guo Sheng away, and walked forward with his hands behind his back.
The two of them were delayed in Mingzhou for six or seven more days, and after finishing their work, they set off for the north in the afternoon.
In the territory of Liangzhejiang Road, Dong Laosan can be regarded as a vast supernatural power, and the news of going north and south is transmitted very quickly.
Guo Sheng listened to the news, kept adjusting his itinerary, and a few days later, he entered a small town called Tangni in the middle of Pingjiang Mansion and Mingzhou.
Four or five miles away from the town, Guo Sheng and Xu Huan together, Dong Laosan took two or three people all the way, and the rest of the people were divided into two groups and entered the town separately.
Guo Sheng and Xu Huan first settled down in the slightly better of the two inns in the town, had a meal in the inn lobby, the two of them shook the folding fan, came out leisurely, first went around the town carefully, reviewed the feng shui architecture, left the town, and went straight to the beach.
The town is not small, built along the coast, and on the sea side, there are a dozen fishing villages, large or small, and a large wharf leading directly to the town, and in addition to this, there are four or five very humble small wharves.
Guo Sheng stood on the edge of the dock, looking at the pale yellow sea from afar, the weather was bad today, and he couldn't even see how far he could see, the yellow sea water was connected with the dusky sky, and the sky was boundless.
"It's a great place to kill people and set fires." Guo Sheng sighed.
"On this sea, there are good places to kill people and throw corpses everywhere, it is not necessary to set fire, when the fire comes, you can see far away." Xu Huan stood forward, facing the sea breeze, and waved his arm.
"Your uncle is not simple." Guo Sheng was half a step behind Xu Huan, with his hands behind his back, his eyes narrowed by the sea breeze, he didn't know what to think, and sighed long.
"Well, there is a way for the so-called thief, like a rock?" Xu Huan also put his hands behind his back.
"The rock is still far away, and I haven't thought of the way back the rock. Once upon a time, it was a thought in the past, and now it ...... Let's take a look first, maybe he can find a better way. ”
"I don't think the rock looks like a man who wants to make a career and seal his wife." Xu Huan looked back at Guo Sheng.
"I brought him up." Guo Sheng replied unceremoniously, "I don't plan to let him do anything, I just want to make his world bigger and bigger, and it won't lead to death." ”
"Hmm." After a while, Xu Huan hummed, was silent for a long time, and sighed, "It's not easy." ”
"Yes, I used to think about the vast sea, and now I ...... Let's take a look at Bai Jingning first, the road back is at least wider than before. ”
