Chapter 20: Troubled Water (1)
Shen Jiannan looked at Wan Zihong's figure, and had an indescribable feeling in his heart, he always felt that it was a little bad to treat her like this, and sighed at the moment, but unfortunately it was not what he said here.
After arguing for a long time, everyone dispersed, Zhou Gongyi hesitated in his heart, just because he suddenly remembered that he had heard a man in the cave that day that his master was Hua Meiyan, but now there is one on the mountain, with the same name, could it be the same person, the man in black also appeared at her door last night, could it be herself, in case it was her, wouldn't Xiaoshan be dangerous.
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt a chill down my spine, and the danger was hidden around me, but I wasn't sure, so I didn't tell others, I wanted to find out, so I came to Hua Meiyan's room, stayed for a long time, and was thinking about how to check.
"Brother Zhou? Why are you standing here, looking for something wrong with me? Hua Meiyan came back from outside and saw Zhou Gongyi dangling in front of her room. Then he asked curiously.
Zhou Gongyi smiled: "There's nothing to do, can I go in?" ”
"Ah, of course, please come in." Hua Meiyan hesitated for a moment, and then smiled happily and led Zhou Gongyi into the room.
"Brother Zhou, please sit casually." Hua Meiyan is very polite.
Zhou Gongyi sat down and looked around carefully, originally wanting to see if he could see any clues in this room.
"Brother Zhou, what are you looking at?" Hua Meiyan seemed to see his motives, and asked tentatively at the moment.
"Ah, it's nothing, just a casual look, are you still used to living here?" Zhou Gongyi said with a smile: "If you need anything, please tell me, I am the housekeeper of Xiaoshan, and I am in charge of all daily necessities."
"Oh, thank you Brother Zhou, Brother Zhou is really a careful person." Hua Meiyan smiled, with gratitude and shyness in her eyes.
Zhou Gongyi carefully observed her every move, and there seemed to be no flaws, and then said with a bitter face: "What happened last night, Miss Hua...."
"Don't mention the past, I don't take it seriously, as long as he behaves in the future, we can still be friends." Hua Meiyan said with a smile, as if she had no complaints at all.
"Oh yes, where is Miss Hua from?" Zhou Gongyi slowly cut to the chase and asked curiously.
"Huh? My family was originally Chang'an, but unfortunately not long ago, my family was killed by a person named Shi Wanchuang, I chased him all the way here, and met Brother Shen on the road, they saw that I was homeless, so they brought me here. Hua Meiyan had a painful expression at first, but when she talked about Shen Jiannan, she had already become excited.
Zhou Gongyi wanted to ask some questions carefully, but he didn't expect Hua Meiyan to say it in one go, so he couldn't ask again, he was stunned for a while, and thought to himself that I would say it directly, not her best, if it was her, let her take care of it, let her know that we were suspicious of her, and we would rein the future, so that we would not be so unscrupulous. Said at the moment: "Miss Hua, two months ago I met a group of people who were not from the Central Plains in a cave, and then I checked that they were Dongying people, and these people were all killed by me, and I also asked from their mouths that their owner was a woman named Hua Meiyan, until I saw you, I was still thinking, there are still people with the same name in the world." ”
Hua Meiyan was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Yes, there is still a name with me?" Then have you seen that person, I really want to see what she looks like. There are countless curiosities in his speech, after all, he is a trained person, he is not happy or angry, and no one will notice the expression of the moment just now, it is all a change in his heart, but his face is always full of smiles.
Zhou Gongyi smiled and said: "I'm really embarrassed, I thought that evil woman was you, I said that it is impossible for you to be so kind, now I am relieved, there is nothing to do, I will not bother you, and I will leave." ”
Hua Meiyan sent Zhou Gongyi out of the door, the expression on her face immediately changed color, and her anger rose, and she immediately gritted her teeth and said: "Okay, Zhou Gongyi, it turns out that you were the one who killed me, this revenge will be avenged sooner or later, today you are just a wake-up call for me, even if you know what about me, you have no evidence." ”
Shen Jiannan came to find Yang Chu's skirt, met Yang Zhaofeng at the door, and smiled happily: "Uncle Yang, is Miss Yang inside?" ”
"Here, you have something to look for her, then I'll go first." Yang Zhaofeng was interested, said with a smile, and then left.
"Brother Shen, is there something wrong with me?" Yang Chuskirt came to the door and asked with a smile.
"Oh! It's nothing, it's just that I haven't talked to you well all the way, and now I'm idle and want to talk to you. Shen Jiannan had a shy face, and his head was slightly lowered when he spoke.
"Then come in." Yang Chu's skirt is also an expression with affection.
"No, let's go out for a walk, and by the way, I'll take you to enjoy the style of Xiaoshan." Shen Jiannan smiled happily.
The two came to the back garden of Xiaoshan together, which is also a garden and a small pond, although it is not as beautiful as the scenery in the Ronin Cliff, but it can be regarded as a fairy land in the world. The two found a secluded place and sat down, both of them were silent for a long time, as if they understood in their hearts, but they just didn't want to break the wall first.
Shen Jiannan hesitated for a long time in his heart, and secretly thought to himself, is it time to say it, will it make the girl next to him unhappy, and asked tentatively: "Chu Skirt, can I call you like this?" As he spoke, he blushed and hurriedly lowered his head.
Obviously, calling her so directly is to confess to her, Yang Chu's skirt was shocked at the moment, this heart was also fluttering and beating, it was all love beans out of the way, I saw Yang Chu's skirt's face was shy and embarrassed, it was very embarrassing at this time, Shen Jiannan was still worried, if Yang Chu's skirt didn't agree, then he would have no face, and it would be embarrassing to meet in the future, and now this is also a gamble.
"Of course, it's more intimate!" Yang Chu's skirt groaned for a long time, and said coquettishly.
When this sentence is said, it is equivalent to a fixed number, and the next words are estimated to be no longer asked, Shen Jiannan's heart is happy, and he really wants to take her into his arms at this time. But he didn't dare, and muttered, "Chu Skirt, are you willing to go home with me?" When he said this, he took up a lot of courage, and he was afraid of being rejected every word he asked, so he was very careful in what he said.
"Okay, I also want to visit my aunt, Brother Shen, when are you going to leave?" Yang Chu's soft voice makes people listen to infinite reverie.
Shen Jiannan couldn't be happier in his heart, Meimei wanted to jump, and said happily: "I'm going to tell my eldest brother that I'm going to take my mother to Xiaoshan, she is alone at home and has no one to serve, and her life is very hard." ”
"Okay, it's just so good that my aunt will be fine when I bring it back, so let me accompany my aunt." Yang Chu's skirt was good at accepting people's opinions, and every word she said made Shen Jiannan feel very warm in his heart.
"Hatsumi, you're so good, now I'm thinking, you should be an angel from heaven." Shen Jiannan looked up at the sky, full of fantasy.
"Brother Shen, you are too good at laughing, do you tell me so well? Actually, I'm not that good. Yang Chuskirt said silently.
"In my heart, you are the best." Shen Jiannan said exactly, and what he said was very affirmative.
Yang Chuskirt chuckled, smiling very happily, in fact, in her heart is still very simple, after all, after living in the mountains for so many years, she still longs for someone to love her.
"Brother Shen, thank you, thank you for being so good to me, in fact, I have always wanted to say a word to you." Yang Chujiao said with a smile, and hurriedly lowered her head.
"What's that?" Shen Jiannan had already made up his mind in his heart, so he couldn't wait to ask.
Yang Chu's skirt got up slowly, brewed for a long time, looked at Shen Jiannan affectionately with her eyes, only to see her lips move slightly, her face was already full of redness, Shen Jiannan seemed to be suffocating, just waiting for her to say this sentence, at this moment, I felt that it was too long, and I almost said it. "What the hell are you going to say?" ”
"You should know, so why bother asking me." Yang Chu's skirt suddenly changed her mind, but she still didn't say that sentence, she only said it shyly, her delicate body turned, her head was lowered, and she ran back.
Shen Jiannan was stunned, his eyes were firmly fixed on her departing figure, You Zi wondered, touched his head, smiled bitterly for a long time, and said to himself: "It's so inexplicable, why didn't you say it halfway, it makes people guess that it's really urgent." ”
After thinking about it for a long time, I didn't figure it out, what Yang Chuskirt was going to say, this woman's mind really couldn't guess, no matter what, sooner or later, she would understand it, and then she moved to the main hall, and all the brothers were there.
"Brothers, Jiannan has something to say." Shen Jiannan seemed to say with a pleading tone.
"What's the matter with the fourth brother, but it doesn't hurt to say it, we are all our own brothers, so don't be polite, I think the fourth brother still treats himself as an outsider." Ma Yuntian said earnestly.
"Thank you, second brother, in fact, I want to go home to visit my mother, and I'm going to take her old man to Xiaoshan." Shen Jiannan said very embarrassedly, he didn't know in his heart whether these brothers were willing or not.
"Okay, the fourth brother's mother is our mother, and we wanderers want to have a mother to serve." Cao Zhenhai said with a smile.
Several other younger brothers also echoed the voice, and Shen Jiannan saw it in his eyes and was very pleased.
"Fourth brother, I'll take a few more brothers with me here, it's a long way to go, so I must bring my mother here." Feng Wanshan said with concern.
"No, I'm going to go back with my one, so I won't bother you brothers." Shen Jiannan said shyly.
"Ah, the fourth brother is afraid that we will disturb your conversation, it turns out that you are going to take your sweetheart home to let your mother see." Li Rugui smiled mischievously.
"Which girl is the fourth brother's sweetheart, why don't we know, fourth brother, you too, why didn't you say it earlier, maybe we were negligent." Ma Yuntian asked curiously.
"Haha, guess what, we still have three beauties here, and the one who left is naturally not." Li Rugui couldn't stop laughing and deliberately teasing everyone.
Shen Jiannan was so uncomfortable, and said with a smirk: "It's Miss Yang." ”
"It turns out that the fourth brother's favorite person is Miss Yang, she has a good eye, and among the three girls, Miss Yang is the most sensible and the most receptive." Wang He said with a smile.
"The third brother has won the prize." Shen Jiannan smiled very cutely, and he was full of joy.
"Cough, I think that Miss Liu is the most beautiful, but it's a pity that she fell in love with the fake prince, Miss Yang has been chased by the fourth brother, I didn't have to recruit me, so I had to fight the idea of the flower beauty, to say that the flower beauty is not inferior, but Li Rugui's brother robbed me again, and there was such a thing that night, it seems that I have no fun." Zhao Xiancheng was indignant and very unhappy in his heart.
"You still have the face to say, the man is above board, you can go directly to her, use that kind of despicable means, it really makes me ashamed of you as a big brother." Feng Wanshan sighed helplessly, with reproach in his words.
"Big brother, don't sprinkle salt on my wounds, I'm depressed." Zhao Xiancheng said bitterly.
"Okay, let's go and help the fourth brother prepare the things he needs to go down the mountain and go home." Feng Wanshan's tone was very lazy, and then he said to Shen Jiannan with a smile: "Fourth brother will go early and return early, and we will wait for a good news." ”
"Don't worry, big brother, I'll be back in five days, brothers, take care, Miss Liu and Miss Hua will bother you these days." Shen Jiannan explained some things, turned around and walked out of the hall, came to find Yang Chuskirt, it happened that Yang Zhaofeng also came, and then the two entered the house together, only to see Yang Chuskirt was packing his luggage, Yang Zhaofeng was curious, and asked: "Daughter, where are you going, why don't you tell your father." ”
"Dad, didn't Brother Shen tell you?" Yang Chu's skirt looked at Shen Jiannan as she spoke, smiled slightly, and continued to pack her things.
"Uncle Yang, Chu Skirt is going to go home with me to visit my mother, so I haven't come here to tell you in a hurry, Uncle Yang won't blame me." Shen Jiannan seemed to have a sense of guilt.
Yang Zhaofeng heard Shen Jiannan directly call his daughter the first skirt, and he wanted to take her home, thinking that there must be a connotation in this, he smiled at the moment: "Brother Shen, how can I blame you, my daughter can't stand the suffering, you have to take care of her life on the way." ”
"Definitely, definitely, I will take good care of her, don't worry." Shen Jiannan said excitedly. and Yang Chu's skirt looked at each other, the two seemed to be flirting with each other, their eyes could speak, their lips moved slightly, Yang Zhaofeng had already seen it in his eyes, and he was secretly happy in his heart, and immediately said with a smile: "I can't call you Brother Shen in the future, I should call you a virtuous nephew." ”
Saying this, it is already very clear, no matter how stupid people are, they can hear what he means, Yang Chujiao replied shyly, and said in a soft voice: "Dad, what are you talking about, shame on your daughter." ”
Shen Jiannan was relieved in his heart, and he didn't know what to say at this time, so he just smiled stupidly.
Yang Zhaofeng saw that the two of them were very embarrassed, and then smiled: "Okay, I won't say much about being an old man, otherwise it should seem that I have nothing to do, so let's go and go back quickly, you must be careful on the way, I found out the news, Shi Wanchuang often haunts this area, and the consequences will be very serious if you meet him." ”
"I will, Uncle Yang, you can rest assured." Shen Jiannan said solemnly.
"Dad, my daughter is leaving, in the few days I am away, you can take care of yourself, if you are lonely, you can go fishing in the back garden, I have been there with Brother Shen, it is similar to Ronin Cliff, if it is still boring, then go to play chess with Brother Feng." Yang Chu's skirt looked happy, and she arranged the things after leaving.
"Okay, this person is a person, I can't go anywhere lonely, you don't have to worry about me, go with Jiannan, play for a few more days and come back." Yang Zhaofeng was relieved.
Shen Jiannan and Yang Chuskirt came to the gate of the mountain with luggage, all the brothers saw them off, everyone looked forward to picking up the old mother as soon as possible, before leaving, goodbye, suddenly Zhang Chaofan ran from the bottom of the mountain, saw this group of people standing at the mountain gate, and saw Shen Jiannan carrying luggage, so he asked: "Why is the fourth brother, just come and have to leave?" ”
"I'm going home and picking up my mother." Shen Jiannan replied with a smile.
"Tenth brother, is there anything wrong with being in such a hurry?" Ma Yuntian asked.
Zhang Chaofan sighed and said, "Didn't the fourth brother say that the fake prince Xue Yuhu was imprisoned by the emperor the day before yesterday, just now I was at the bottom of the mountain but I heard that this kid had been rescued yesterday." ”
Everyone was shocked one after another, and Shen Jiannan asked eagerly, "Do you know who saved it?" ”
"I don't know, the news from the palace that the person who saved him was a masked." Zhang Chaofan let out a long sigh again.
Everyone was confused, looking at each other, no one knowing what was going on, fearing that another conspiracy was going on in secret.
Liu Yueqian was very happy, but everyone was angry, so she didn't make an expression, but she was secretly happy in her heart, bowed her head and hesitated for a long time, wanting to ask a few questions, but she was afraid that others would be unhappy, so she endured it and didn't speak.
Shen Jiannan sighed: "It seems that this kid should not be killed, I will go down the mountain to pay attention, if I see him, I will bring him back, as long as he no longer does evil, and can be with Miss Liu for the rest of his life, wouldn't it be a good thing." ”
Liu Yueru was grateful in her heart, and hurriedly thanked: "Thank you Brother Shen, Jade Fox has made such a big mistake, and Brother Shen can still be so benevolent, I am really happy for Jade Fox." ”
"Miss Liu, you are our friend, I am very optimistic about Xue Yuhu, but I can't bear to see you haggard for her, even if it is for the sake of friends, I must let him change his ways and return to your side." Shen Jiannan still hopes that Xue Yuhu will change his attitude.
"Then it's troublesome Brother Shen, if he wants to resist, you must be merciful." Liu Yueqian was still very worried, and this heart was deeply touched by Xue Yuhu.
"I will, Miss Liu, brothers, don't pass by, and see you in five days." Shen Jiannan said goodbye to everyone and went down the mountain with Yang Chu's skirt.
