Liu Da'an looked at him for a long time, and frowned twice, "Dad, no, when did you care so much about Xiucai?" ”

Liu Dagui smiled, turned his face, and said with a mouthful of oil: "I didn't see that you sighed and didn't have any energy recently, I thought that Xiucai couldn't think of anything, and even your mood was low." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Liu Da'an was very happy when he saw that his father rarely cared about him, but his face was serious, and he said sullenly: "People show that they are scholars, of course, they can't be limited to a small county like Huaixian, and in two months it will be a scientific examination, and he will go to the capital." ”

Although this was said clearly, there was still a sour air in the tone.

Of course, Liu Dagui could hear it, took a bite of roast goose, and asked quietly: "You also want to go to the capital?" ”

"Of course." Liu Da'an didn't think about it, he went back in one bite, and when he said it, he realized that he had missed his mouth, and smiled awkwardly at Liu Dagui.

Liu Dagui didn't count him down as usual for not being down-to-earth and ambitious, but after nibbling two mouthfuls of roast goose, he said nonchalantly: "Since you also want to go to the capital, then go, the capital is the capital of our Ming Dynasty, and you can go for a long time." ”

After Liu Da'an heard this, he thought he was dreaming, pinched the back of his hand fiercely, and snorted, only to be sure that Liu Dagui, the old man, was willing to let him go away.

However, he didn't show much excitement, but walked out of the coffin shop leisurely without thinking.

As soon as he turned the gate, Liu Da'an screamed excitedly, and ran to Shen's house like a gust of wind, not caring that it was still raining outside.

Feng Tao was sitting in the hall doing needlework at this time, these were the things of the eldest sister Tao Chunjiao before, but now the head of the Shen family is no longer there, and the eldest sister who is in charge of the family is also gone, and the burden of the entire Shen family is on her shoulders.

It's just that it's not these things that really make her physically and mentally exhausted, the deaths of Wang Min and Shen Chonghua are both fatal blows to Feng Tao. She washed her face with tears almost every day, couldn't swallow, and couldn't sleep. She never thought that the farewell at Hengyue Inn would be the last life and death separation between her and Shen Chonghua in this life.

If she had known that this was the end, she would have followed him out that day without hesitation. She is a woman who values love and righteousness, many years ago, she fell into the Qinglou, and sold her soul all day long to please those dignitaries, but fortunately she met Shen Chonghua, who redeemed herself from the desperate situation and let her see the light of the world again.

Thinking of this, Feng Tao raised his eyes and glanced at Ah Bao, who was squatting under the eaves and holding his cheeks silently, and his eyes were wet unconsciously.

At this time, the door of the house was pushed open with a "squeak", and I saw Liu Da'an, the young owner of the coffin shop, running in happily, Feng Tao took a deep breath, raised his sleeve and wiped the corners of his eyes, put down the needlework in his hand, got up and walked out of the hall.

When Liu Da'an saw Feng Tao, he immediately restrained his smile and said respectfully: "Second aunt, is Xiuwen back?" ”

Feng Tao shook his head and said, "I've been out for a few days, and I haven't come back yet." ”

Liu Da'an couldn't help but be a little disappointed, glanced at Ah Bao who was squatting under the eaves, and sighed. I don't know what that guy has been doing recently, and he doesn't tell anyone mysteriously, but he suddenly appeared a few days ago and asked him to help check if there is a rich lady who has died mysteriously in the past three years nearby, which is really weird.

Feng Tao also knew that he had come to Xiuwen several times, but he hadn't seen anyone, and seeing his stunned appearance, he comforted him and said: "Da'an, Xiuwen said, he will come back in a few days, don't be too anxious, if he comes back, I will let him come to you." ”

Liu Da'an thought about it, and had no choice but to do so.

Coming out of Shen's house, the rain stopped, and the wind was lighter, Liu Da'an raised his eyes and glanced around, and saw a familiar figure not far away walking this way, Liu Da'an was overjoyed, and waved his hand vigorously at the person, "Miao Laosan, Miao Laosan......"

Miao Haoran heard his shout and glanced at him lightly, Liu Da'an saw him coming over, and shouted excitedly: "Miao Laosan, do you know that my father allowed me to go to ......"

Miao Haoran was obviously not interested in his words, and before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted: "How is that guy?" ”

When Liu Da'an heard this, his face collapsed, "What else, I haven't even seen a figure these days." ”

Miao Haoran stopped in front of him and was silent for a moment, Liu Da'an still wanted to speak, but saw this person raise his head and say: "I still have some things, go first, if you have any news of Xiucai, notify me as soon as possible." ”

Liu Da'an's words were blocked by Miao Haoran's words, and his heart suddenly became unsmooth, and he was about to scold a few words, but the man walked straight in front of him without caring about his feelings.

Liu Da'an was at the gate of the Shen Mansion, and he didn't slow down for a long time, until he saw Miao Haoran's figure hidden among the passers-by, so he let out a "sigh" and walked back dejectedly.

……

At this time, Shen Xiuwen was in the Qingyun Temple of Qingyun Mountain. But since the corpse mutiny occurred in Yizhuang a month ago, Qingyun Daoist has closed his door and refused to visit.

Shen Xiuwen waited outside the Taoist temple for a day and a night before he saw the Qingyun Dao Elder himself.

Qingyun Dao is in his fifties, with hanging eyes, a wide nose, and he speaks in a sven manner, which is very incompatible with his appearance.

I saw him elegantly holding a tea bowl, lifted the tea lid and floated the floating tea foam, took a sip, and then gently put it down, then looked up at Shen Xiuwen and asked, "Who are you?" What is the so-called thing in Qingyunguan? ”

Shen Xiuwen smiled faintly, got up and saluted the Qingyun Daoist, "In Xia Shen Xiuwen, when I came to Qingyun Temple today, I wanted to ask the Daoist Master for some things. ”

Qingyun Dao Chang saw that he was a handsome boy and dressed extraordinary, and his heart was secretly happy. After sneaking a glance at him, he nodded solemnly and said: "Your Excellency has been waiting outside the Taoist temple for a day and a night, and you can see that you are sincerely seeking a solution, so let's do it, even if you are cheaper, how about a question of one or two silver?" ”

Shen Xiuwen was stunned when he heard this, and almost squirted out the tea he had just drunk. Qingyun Dao Chang observed his words, and seeing that he didn't reply immediately, he said: "This is already the cheapest price, and the pot of tea that the apprentice made for Your Excellency can be regarded as a free gift to you." ”

Shen Xiuwen glanced at the porcelain teapot on the table and said with a smile: "In this way, I still take advantage of it." ”

"Of course." Qingyun Dao Chang stroked the handful of goatee on his chin.
