Chapter 12 Helping Others
I saw two bastard-looking people punching and kicking an old man on the ground, and the old man was protecting his head and struggling to dodge in the snow.
It is tolerable for two young people to bully an old man, but it is intolerable. Gao Shiman hurriedly shouted to the few strong men he brought: "Drive those two away!" Several attendants rushed over immediately, and Gao Shiman also hurriedly got out of the car.
When they got out of the car, the two people had run away, and Gao Shiman helped the old man up and said, "Are you okay?" I saw that the man's face was blue and swollen, and a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, and she hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe it for him.
The old man patted the snow on his body and said, "Thank you, I can't do anything." Hearing this long-lost native voice, Gao Shiman's tears almost welled up, she endured her sourness, and said softly: "Uncle, what happened, why is it here?" ”
"Hey, it's hard to put into words."
It turned out that this old man was really from Jiangcheng, named Qian Daoyi, and he had a daughter named Qian Minzhi when he was nearly thirty years old, and he was twenty-eight years old, and his wife died of illness when his daughter was ten years old.
Qian Daoyi was originally a staff member under the Chang Assassin Shi Sect in Jiangnan Dongdao, and Chang Assassin Shi had a son named Chang Yuhong, who was privately friendly with Qian Minzhi, and was jealous of Chang Yuhong's wife Liu Yujiao, and took advantage of Qian Daoyi's errand to use means to harm Qian Minzhi to be sold to Jinfeng Tower in Beijing. Qian Daoyi came to the capital after several twists and turns, and stayed in Pu'an Temple, and finally let him find out where his daughter was located. Qian Daoyi didn't have enough money on his body, so he went to intercede three times and twice, which annoyed others and chased him to Pu'an Temple.
Gao Shiman listened to the secret words, Qian Minzhi is afraid that she is not like her father who is just getting along with people like her father, if it is not a threat to other people's wives, people will not go to great lengths to sell her to the capital thousands of miles away. There is a saying that a loving mother has many defeated children, and a loving father is not.
Even so, Gao Shiman must help the old man, and now he can only take the old man back to the house first, and then see if Gao Keben can help to redeem his daughter. After making up his mind, Gao Shiman said: "Uncle Qian, I am the eldest daughter of Lord Gao, the squire of the Ministry of Works, I pity the hearts of parents in the world, and I am very sympathetic to Minzhi's sister as a woman, if you don't dislike it, why don't you go back to the house with me first, and let me slowly find a way to help you?" ”
Qian Daoyi raised his head and looked at Gao Shiman carefully, and saw that the woman's eyes were full of concern and sincerity, so he couldn't help but nod and said, "Then it's troublesome for the young lady, thank you for your kindness, please accept my worship." Saying that he wanted to bow down, Gao Shiman hurriedly stopped and said seriously: "Uncle Qian, don't be polite, I can only do my best, don't expect high hopes from me, my father's ability is limited, and I don't know ......."
Qian Daoyi hurriedly interrupted her: "Miss is very grateful, it is a blessing to help me, even if it doesn't work, it's a great favor, don't talk like this." ”
Gao Shiman nodded, asked the old man to help him into the carriage, and returned to Gao Mansion together.
settled Qian Daoyi in the outer courtyard, and when Gao Keben returned home in the evening, Gao Shiman brought a pair of cotton slippers to find her cheap father. In fact, Gao Keben still loves his first child, Gao Shiman, but most of the children born to his aunts are sons, and he is also light on Zheng Jilan, so he has not been too caring.
Gao Keben was in the study, Gao Shiman first called his father sweetly as soon as he entered, many people are not to blame, this father is no different from a stranger, I saw Gao Keben sitting at the desk, the tall and thin figure does not belong to the type of wine bag and rice bag at a glance, the facial features are upright, the face is pale, and he smiled when he heard Gao Shiman call him: "Man'er's head is okay, right?" ”
"Dad, I'm fine; This is the cotton slippers made for you, you can wear them in the bedroom after taking a shower" Gao Shiman didn't want to discuss with him that he was okay with his head, so he handed the slippers over.
"Man'er has grown up, and he can make shoes for his father" Gao Keben took it and took off the shoes on his feet, put on the slippers and stood up and walked two steps: "Yes, it's very comfortable." ”
Gao Keben simply didn't change it down, and sat down with his slippers on. Gao Shiman thought for a moment and said: "Dad, today in Pu'an Temple, my daughter saved an old man, he was originally a strategist of Jiangnan Chang Assassin History, his daughter was killed and sold into Jinfeng Tower, he came all the way to save his daughter but he couldn't follow the rules, then Jinfeng Lou had to be three hundred taels to release people, pity the world's parents, Dad, can you find some way to help him?" ”
"Three hundred taels is indeed a bit terrifying," Gao Keben only came out when he heard this. Gao Shiman stared at his eyes, and he didn't see a trace of sympathy, and his heart was a little gloomy. Sure enough, Gao Keben said: "Three hundred taels is really a large amount, Liu Xiande, the owner of Jinfeng Tower, has an inextricable relationship with the palace, everyone has their own lives, you had better not meddle in your affairs, if you get into trouble, wouldn't it be bad to affect the house?" ”
Gao Shiman knew that there was no drama when he heard it, and immediately said perfunctorily: "My daughter knows, so I won't be nosy, dad, you should rest early, and my daughter will go back first." ”
After speaking, he kept slandering the non-person he trusted.
