Chapter 148: Flim Flam
When Xu Sanlang heard Cheng Xi's words, his body paused slightly, and then he answered, "I'll give an order and come back soon." ”
After Xu Saburo left, Cheng Xi reached out and patted his face, muttering to himself, "Why am I so stupid." ”
Yu Zhaocai, who happened to come in through the door, said, "Yo, haven't you always prided yourself as smart?" How can you admit that you are stupid today? It's a rarity. ”
Thinking that the picture of himself holding Xu Saburo and crying just now was seen by Yu Zhaocai, it was really embarrassing, and when he saw Yu Zhaocai at this time, his face was slightly red, and he said angrily, "No matter how stupid you are, you are smarter than you, what are you doing here, aren't you thirsty to drink tea?" ”
Yu Zhaocai sat down beside Cheng Xi with a smile, "I've drunk enough tea for so long, what's the matter?" Is this bothering you? Do you want me to avoid it? ”
Cheng Xi glared at Yu Zhaocai and said, "Wait for dinner." ”
Yu Zhaocai already had something to say to Cheng Xi, but he didn't really intend to avoid it, although he said so, his body sat firmly on the stool and did not move, changed the topic and asked, "How was Brother Xu put back?" ”
Cheng Xi pursed his lips and said, "You are wrong. ”
Yu Zhaocai's eyes widened in surprise, "Huh? No way, I followed him for a long time, and I saw it clearly. ”
Cheng Xi responded, "It's just that you are mistaken, otherwise why would Xu Saburo be here?" Is it so easy to be released from prison? Besides, Xu Saburo was not arrested at all. ”
Yu Zhaocai didn't believe it, he only thought that Cheng Xi Xu Saburo didn't intend to tell him the truth, although he was curious, he didn't necessarily know, pursed his lips and responded, "I can't say it, forget it." ”
Cheng Xi didn't plan to continue to lose his appetite for fortune, and said, "It was his younger brother who was arrested, not Xu Sanlang. ”
Yu Zhaocai was even more surprised at this time, "So, so similar? He didn't think it was his own dazzle, he could see it clearly at that time, it was undoubtedly Xu Sanlang, if it was as Cheng Xi said, it was really Xu Sanlang's younger brother, it looked too similar, right?
Cheng Xi sneered, "Where is it like, is it just the same?" If I hadn't known Xu Saburo for a long time, I probably wouldn't have been able to tell who was who. ”
Yu Zhaocai sighed, "It's so similar, is it a twin?" ”
Cheng Xi pursed his mouth, "How do I know, I don't know his younger brother well, and I don't bother to ask." ”
Cheng Xi doesn't have much affection for Xu Sanlang's younger brother, if his younger brother suddenly appears, maybe she is still living a peaceful and stable life with Xu Sanlang in Anyang County, Xu Sanlang doesn't have to go for a few years without news, and they won't worry about Xu Sanlang all the time.
At this time, Xu Sanlang went to instruct his subordinates to prepare a meal and came back, just heard the conversation between the two, Xu Sanlang sat down next to Cheng Xi, and said to Yu Zhaocai, "Thank you Brother Yu for being so concerned this time, and you also brought Xi'er to Fucheng to find me, only I have a younger brother who looks exactly like me, and please be sure to keep it secret and don't say it." ”
Yu Zhaocai looked at Xu Sanlang's solemn expression, and nodded solemnly, "Brother Xu, don't worry, I will only stop this matter in my stomach, but ......, how did Brother Xu's younger brother become a prisoner of the imperial court?" You're staying in Fucheng, but you're going to risk your life to save him? I went with Xi'er today to inquire about the situation, if you want to come hard, I'm afraid you still have to be cautious. ”
Xu Saburo responded, "Thank you Brother Yu for the relationship, we will be measured." ”
Yu Zhaocai nodded, "That's good." ”
Xu Sanlang didn't want to continue this topic, these things made Cheng Xiyu Zhaocai know too much, it was not a good thing for them, or the less they knew, the better, so he changed the topic and asked, "How have you been in the past two years?" Yu Gongzi, did Ling Zun still trouble you after that? ”
Yu Zhaocai shook his head, "Since that time, I have rarely come to Fucheng, but I haven't had any more conflicts with that old man." ”
Xu Sanlang looked at Cheng Xi, his meaning was self-evident, he wanted Cheng Xi to tell him about her situation in the past few years.
Cheng Xi was still a little awkward in his heart because Xu Sanlang had just lost face in front of Yu Zhaocai, and when he saw Xu Sanlang's inquiring gaze, he only pouted and snorted coldly and did not agree.
Xu Sanlang was thinking about whether he had made Cheng Xi angry again, and was thinking about how to coax Cheng Xi, but the next person quickly sent the food over.
Xu Sanlang finally found something to say, "The food is here, didn't you say you were hungry just now?" Hurry up and eat, and rest when you're full. ”
Cheng Xi was indeed hungry, Xu Sanlang didn't finish speaking, he unceremoniously picked up the dishes and chopsticks on the table and began to eat, Yu Zhaocai saw that Cheng Xi ate so fragrantly, and his stomach also felt hungry, so he said, "Thank you, Brother Xu, then I'm welcome." ”
Xu Sanlang has been accompanying him, and when the two of them have eaten and drunk enough, Xu Sanlang called the middle-aged man to take Yu Zhaocai to the guest room to rest, and Xu Sanlang took Cheng Xi to his house, personally washed Cheng Xi, and urged Cheng Xi to sleep well.
Cheng Xi sat on the bed after washing, but he still had something to ask, "You said that you actually planned to go back to see us when you came back this time, why would Ge Shu come with you?" And how could he be caught? ”
Xu Sanlang grabbed Cheng Xide's shoulder helplessly, pressed her to lie down, covered the quilt and said, "Hurry up and go to bed, your eyes are red, and you will tell you when you wake up." ”
Cheng Xi looked at Xu Sanlang's non-negotiable expression, pursed his mouth, and had to obediently close his eyes, only to feel that Xu Sanlang stood up and was about to leave, and quickly broke away his eyes and asked, "Where are you going?" ”
After asking, he pulled the quilt to cover his slightly reddened face, only his eyes were still exposed outside the quilt, staring at Xu Saburo who stood up, waiting for an answer.
Looking at Cheng Xi, who suddenly became so attached to him, Xu Sanlang unconsciously pursed the corners of his lips and responded, "I'm just going to pour water, don't worry, I will accompany you, I won't leave, go to sleep." ”
Cheng Xi closed his eyes with peace of mind, and said with a hard and arrogant mouth, "Who wants you to accompany me, I'm just asking where you're going." ”
Originally, he was highly nervous because of Xu Sanlang's affairs, but seeing Xu Sanlang who was safe and sound, Cheng Xi's tight string finally loosened, and after closing his eyes, he quickly fell asleep.
When he woke up again, it was already dark in the room, and he seemed to feel the sound of breathing next to him, Cheng Xi sat up vigilantly, and then remembered that he was not at home, but here with Xu Sanlang, at this time there was a sound of breathing next to him, it must be Xu Sanlang.
Sure enough, Cheng Xi's actions woke up Xu Sanlang, and as soon as Cheng Xi sat up, Xu Sanlang's voice came from the side, "What's wrong?" It's not dawn yet, and if you sleep for a while, are you still hungry? You slept too deeply, so dinner didn't call you. ”
Xu Sanlang sat up as he spoke, Cheng Xi's eyes gradually adjusted to the darkness, and when he saw Xu Sanlang get up, he was about to get out of bed, and said, "I'll go get you something to eat." ”
Cheng Xi hurriedly reached out and grabbed Xu Sanlang's arm, "No need, I'm not hungry, go to sleep." ”
After speaking, he lay down first, and Xu Sanlang also lay down next to him.
It's been more than two years, and the two of them have shared the same bed again as before, but it seems to be a little different from before.
After lying down, Cheng Xi couldn't fall asleep anymore, Xu Sanlang on the side listened to Cheng Xi's movements inside, and finally asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Cheng Xi responded, "It's okay, maybe I've been sleeping for a long time, you can sleep, don't worry about me." ”
Xu Saburo said honestly with some helplessness, "I'm sleepy, and I can't sleep like you." ”
Cheng Xi pouted and replied arrogantly, "If I think I'm noisy with you, then don't sleep in the same bed with me." ”
After saying that, Cheng Xi regretted it a little, she wasn't like this before, why did she suddenly become so hypocritical today? I am a little disgusted and can't stand such a hypocritical self.
But when the words came out, he couldn't take them back, Cheng Xi was annoyed and simply pulled up the quilt to cover his head.
Xu Sanlang stretched out his hand to put the quilt on Cheng Xi's head and said softly, "I don't think you are noisy, don't be like this, you will suffocate yourself." ”
Cheng Xi hummed softly, "I won't make any noise, you can sleep." ”
Xu Sanlang knew that Cheng Xi had probably slept for a long time and couldn't sleep for a while, so he said, "I can't sleep either, don't you have something to ask in the afternoon?" Now ask. ”
Cheng Xi, who was in the dark, pursed the corners of his lips and responded, "I'm just curious that you came back to see it, why did this Ge Shu also come with him and be arrested in Moon City?" ”
Speaking of this, Xu Saburo replied helplessly, "He insisted on coming with him, but he was also targeted, and he found an opportunity to arrest people, but don't worry, those people don't dare to do anything to him for the time being." ”
Cheng Xi pursed his lips and responded, "I'm not worried about him, what do you care, I'm just curious to ask." ”
Xu Sanlang complained even more about the dislike in Cheng Xi's words, and opened his mouth to explain for Ge Shu, "Actually, he was forced to be helpless at the beginning, so don't blame him." ”
Cheng Xi heard that Xu Saburo actually helped Ge Shu speak, and the uncomfortable feeling in his heart suddenly blocked his heart, and his tone of voice became excited, "He is your good brother, how dare I blame him, you will continue to do your big things with your brother in the future, and I will go back to my countryside tomorrow to plant my land." ”
Xu Sanlang helplessly reached out and hugged Cheng Xi into his arms, and whispered, "I never wanted to do anything big, I just wanted to stay with you and live a peaceful life." ”
In the dark, Cheng Xi's face gradually became a little hot, and he reached out and pushed Xu Sanlang, but he didn't move at all, and the struggle was fruitless, Cheng Xi simply let Xu Sanlang hold him, buried his head in Xu Sanlang's chest, and said in a muffled voice, "Who wants to be with you, with your brother, but he has learned to flamboy." ”
