64. Li Shanren asked for the truth several times

When Li Shanren heard this, he fell to the ground with an "oops", which scared Ma Chenlong a lot, and hurriedly stepped forward to help, but because of his lightheadedness, he couldn't help for a while, which alarmed Mrs. Li in the front wing. When Mrs. Li heard the news, she saw that Li Shanren fell to the ground and couldn't get up, Ma Chenlong was in a hurry and hurriedly called out to Mother Wu. Wu's mother was busy in the firewood room, and she couldn't hear it behind her ears, and Niu Laosi, who was sweeping the floor in the courtyard, heard it, and hurriedly ran over to support Li Shanren on the chair. Mrs. Li hurriedly asked Niu Laosi to bring tea, and Niu Laosi went to the next room to ask Wu's mother to make tea. Mrs. Li slapped Li Shanren's back and asked, "Why did the master fall down in a good manner?" Li Shanren only gasped and didn't speak, and rested for a while to ask for water. At this time, Niu Laosi had already brought the tea, Li Shanren took it, and he was about to drink it with the spout. Mrs. Li knew that her husband would drink tea desperately when he was anxious, and hurriedly reminded him, "Be careful of burning your mouth." Fortunately, Wu's mother had already made tea, and when she was about to send it to Li Shanren, Mrs. Li said that the wounded and sick in Xianghai's house could already stop eating, and she should cook some ham mullet soup, sea cucumber and other foods that are conducive to wound healing, and the ham and sea cucumber should be cooked to a thin extent, so she was asked to prepare the ingredients early.

Wu's mother is also easy to forget things when she is old, and while responding, she forgot to serve tea to Li Shanren, and when Niu Lao Si went to the end, the tea was already half cold. Li Shanren took the teapot and drank it to the end, stopped at the end of the day, took a breath, took out two halves of gold coins in his sleeve, beckoned Ma Chenlong and said, "Child, come and see." Ma Chenlong saw Li Shanren take out two halves of gold coins, and recognized that half of them had red ropes as his own, and said, "Sir, are you?" Li Shanren said excitedly: "I am Li Shanren who the iron-headed boss wants you to come to!" But what Tietou said must be Li Shanren, the benevolent and righteous Ren, and you misunderstood that the surname Li is a good person, so you can't find me. Ma Chenlong shouted, "Oops! He also understood, and immediately knelt down to thank him: "The student is ignorant, he has eyes and does not know Mount Tai, the great benefactor is in front of him, let the student bow and thank you." Li Shanren dragged it down: "By all means, the Republic of China is now, and the new era is not going to kneel and worship, please get up quickly!" Ma Chenlong insisted on kneeling: "I knelt for Uncle Ironhead." Then he knelt again, "Kneel again to thank you for saving your life." Li Shanren hurriedly helped him up, saying that he had sent Zhao Da back to the shore to investigate, and learned that the beach had been robbed and the iron head was killed, thinking that he would never see this half of the gold coin again. Ask Ma Chenlong why he hasn't come to visit him for so many years? Ma Chenlong described in detail what happened to him after he was framed by the horse carpenter's daughter-in-law and had no choice but to leave the horse carpenter's house.

That year, Mrs. Ma saw that Ma Chenlong was determined to leave the Ma family, so she was reluctant to give him a few carpenter's belongings. If he was lucky, when a large family built a house or a wedding event and needed to make a house, he could have a thatched house for three or five months to shelter from the wind and rain, and eat meat and food. During the busy farming season, he helped people with chores, cut rice, cut rice, planted seedlings and feed livestock, did everything, and suffered from the hardships of life. Two years later, he finally came to Shanghai and lived on the banks of the Zhoujiaqiao River. Zhoujia Bridge is a small wooden bridge on Sanjing Bang, under which a Suzhou Creek winds east for hundreds of miles into the Huangpu River. It is a place of continuous rivers and sparse villages, houses and thatched houses, bazaars and rolling dragons. When Ma Chenlong came to Zhoujiaqiao, he was cold and hot, and he couldn't take a step anymore, and fell headlong by the river. The sun rose and set, and he lay by the river for three days. This morning, a vegetable farmer went down to the vegetable garden to harvest vegetables, found a ragged young man lying by the river, approached to take a look, and found that he was half dead and still had a breath, so he dragged him back to the bamboo shed by the river, fed a few mouthfuls of hot water, and Ma Chenlong came back to life. The vegetable farmer is a lonely old man, and after Ma Chenlong took care of his health, he helped the old man build the bamboo shed into a simple tiled house, and pasted the walls, so that the house was no longer breathable and leaky. The old man was grateful and asked him where he had come from and where he was going. Ma Chenlong told the old man that he had come from the Yellow River and was going to the East China Sea to find a good man surnamed Li. The old man said that Shanghai was so big that he wanted to find a no-one clan to find a needle in the haystack with only half a gold coin, and persuaded him to dispel this idea.

Ma Chenlong had no choice but to give up, after all, it was important to find a livelihood to fill his stomach, and he would make plans for the future to find people. When the old man saw that he knew how to make a craft, he left him as a companion, and the old man planted vegetables, and he fished wood from the river to build houses for others, and settled down by the Suzhou River.

Zhoujiaqiao is located at the junction of Shanghai and Suzhou, near the river and waterfront, and has land transportation. The Japanese opened a yarn factory here, and the adult Ma Chenlong Mao recommended himself to be a carpenter, and was recruited by the yarn factory to build a factory building. Day and night, except when he was sleeping, he was not working, the rest of the time was in the carpenter's axe and sawing, a trance, the axe in his hand fell, he only wore a pair of straw sandals on his feet, "ahhhh Later, he met Wang Benhua, a co-worker who was one year older than him, and the two were called brothers. Wang Benhua is also a poor farmer, in the year of the founding of the Republic of China, he was still farming in the countryside of Sichuan, and he took the lead in cutting off his hair braids to be a real citizen. Unexpectedly, the warlords fought and his hometown became a bandit, so he fled to Shanghai and entered the Japanese yarn factory in the same year as Ma Chenlong. Later, the two were admitted to Zhonghua Book Company to study printing together, and in their spare time, they entered an amateur school together, joined the Communist Party together, were appointed by the organization to be admitted to Shanghai University for part-time work and study, and together organized and led the February strike until the Avenida massacre.

After hearing this, Li Shanren sighed: "Child, as I expected, there are thousands of people surnamed Li in Shanghai, and it is almost impossible for you to find me with only half a gold coin." For so many years, you and I have been in Shanghai together, but we have raced all over the world, if you hadn't eaten the gun, you might not have been able to meet in this life and this life. All the coincidences in the world are arranged by God, and they are really not false. Li Shanren sighed infinitely in his heart. According to Zhao Da, after they left the shore beach, a broad-faced scholar with a square head and big ears came to the beach, thinking that this Ma Chenlong's nickname was Gong'er, his mother's surname was Zhang, and the broad-faced scholar might be Jin Xiangyu. In the year of war and chaos, it is not easy for Jin Xiangyu to find a safe place to avoid being arrested by the government, and it is very likely that he will come to the shore and beach in a circle. If this is the case, it is very likely that Ma Chenlong in front of him is the son of Jin Xiangyu and Li Xiaoniang.

Li Shanren wanted to know more, but Ma Chenlong couldn't remember what happened before he was four years old, so he couldn't ask anything, so he had to give up. Thinking that the Li family suffered a catastrophe, Zhao Da only knew what happened, and did not know the heinous sins committed by the pair, and only Wu Ma knew the ins and outs. If Mother Wu didn't tell Zhao Da, then only she knew that Ma Chenlong was the son of Jin Xiangyu. Li Shanren told his wife what happened to Ma Chenlong and his guesses.
