Chapter 402: Time is also fate
A pheasant and a hare, enough for several of them to eat.
Ning Youxi didn't pay attention to the expression on Cui Xiu's face at all, and he wanted to go back to the carriage with one hand.
But at this moment, in the grass not far away, there was a sudden sound of rustling.
Hearing this voice, Cui Xiu immediately raised his bow and arrows and aimed at the grass, in case a big beast suddenly rushed out and hurt people.
Ning Youxi also hid behind Cui Xiu very cooperatively, and looked at the grass with his head probed.
Just as Cui Xiu was about to shoot an arrow, a black head suddenly came out of the grass.
…… It's actually a human?
Cui Xiu hurriedly let go of his hand holding the arrow, he almost let go just now, but fortunately he .......
Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the black head on the other side seemed to lift and look at them.
Then a small figure crawled out of the grass excitedly and pounced towards Cui Xiu and Ning Youxi.
"Brother...... Sister......!"
With this excited appearance, if Cui Xiu and Ning Youxi didn't know that they didn't have a younger brother, they would have almost misunderstood whether they had misremembered.
"Hey...... Who are you?"
Cui Xiu was the first to react, and without waiting for this little dot to get closer, he directly pressed the little dot's head with the hand that had just released the arrow.
No matter how little bit he wanted to get closer, his hands couldn't reach Cui Xiu's body.
At this time, Ning Youxi suddenly stretched his poked head forward, and then let out a puzzled sound.
"Are you that kid?"
Zhao Xiaobao, who was holding his head down by Cui Xiu, actually cried when he heard Ning Youxi's words, and said while crying with sobs.
"It's me, sister."
Cui Xiu heard the conversation between Ning Youxi and this child, and immediately let go of his hand, turned his head and looked at Ning Youxi with some curiosity and asked.
"Do you know him?"
Ning Youxi's eyes widened and he pointed at Zhao Dao.
"You also know, the kid who was tied up with us that time, have you forgotten?"
Hearing Ning Youxi's words, Cui Xiu immediately remembered that day he was kidnapped.
"Is that you? How did you end up here?
No, weren't you in Xie Futai's mansion before, waiting for your family to pick you up?"
Zhao Xiaobao, who was sobbing and crying, was even more heartbroken after hearing Cui Xiu's question, and cried loudly.
"Oh, don't cry!
We didn't bully you, if you have anything, say it well, or we'll leave."
Cui Xiu was pierced by the magic sound of the child's crying, and said directly with a straight face.
Hearing Cui Xiu's words, Zhao Xiaobao hiccuped, then raised his hands to cover his mouth.
Although there were still tears in his eyes, he didn't dare to cry out loud.
Seeing his pitiful appearance, Ning Youxi couldn't help but feel soft in his heart and asked.
"If you say it well, my brother will definitely not leave you alone!"
Hearing that Ning Youxi was looking for something to do for herself, Cui Xiu could only purse her lips and did not say anything against it, who let this be his future daughter-in-law!
Zhao Xiaobao saw Ning Youxi say this, secretly glanced at Cui Xiu, and saw that he did not object, so he held back his tears and told Cui Xiu and Ning Youxi what happened after he fled back. ….
"How unreasonable, how can your foreigner do this to you?"
Ning Youxi's eyebrows rose upside down, and he said angrily.
Zhao Xiaobao wiped a handful of tears with his sleeve and choked up.
"My father's whereabouts are unknown now, and I'm a kid now, so I can't go to my grandfather's family for justice.
Moreover, my grandfather and grandmother said that my mother was recuperating, but I never saw her for a few days after I came back.
I don't think it's clear how lucky my mother is!"
After all, steal
The servant who secretly helped him escape said that let him run as far as he wanted, and never return to Mingzhou Mansion again.
"Cui Xiu, isn't your second uncle Lord Futai from Nanyue Mansion?
For something like Zhao Xiaobao, you should just find your second uncle!"
After Ning Youxi was angry, he quickly thought of this, and looked at Cui Xiu with bright eyes and asked.
"If Zhao Xiaobao's family is really from Nanyue Mansion, they can naturally sue my second uncle, and then inquire about the reason."
Cui Xiu thought about it and nodded back.
Hearing Cui Xiu's words, Ning Youxi and Zhao Xiaobao's faces showed expressions of surprise.
Cui Qingyuan didn't expect that he was just helping his nephew and their little couple go out for a secret private meeting, and he actually brought back a eucalyptus for himself, which was still a troublesome eucalyptus.
「…… The Zhao family?
But Zhao Hongchang, who is in the grain business in Nanyue Province?
Who are you from Zhao Hongchang?"
Cui Qingyuan knows almost everything about the people up and down the Nanyue Mansion.
Zhao Xiaobao had already learned from his brother and sister that the person in front of him was Lord Futai of Nanyue Mansion.
Whatever grievances you have are to tell him.
Therefore, when he heard the name Cui Qingyuan asked, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he replied loudly.
"This is my father's name, my father taught me, our family's grain shop is called Hongchang Grain Store.
My father disappeared this time because he was carrying a wagon of grain out to do business, but he didn't expect something to happen."
Speaking of this, Zhao Xiaobao's tears couldn't help falling again.
When Cui Qingyuan heard Zhao Xiaobao's words, his brows furrowed tightly.
Speaking of Zhao Hongchang, there are grain shops of the Zhao family on several streets in Nanyue Prefecture.
At the beginning of Nanyue Mansion, it can be said that the Zhao family was Zhao Bancheng.
Because about 40% of the shops in Nanyue Mansion were opened by the Zhao family.
It is precisely because of this that the Zhao family was exploited by the previous Futai Chen Tai, and they couldn't bear it anymore, so they had long planned to leave Nanyue Mansion.
first secretly sold two-thirds of the shop under the name of the Zhao family, and the remaining one-third was dedicated to Chen Tai by him.
It is precisely because of this that Chen Tai will relax his vigilance against the Zhao family.
This is also the reason why Zhao Hongchang was able to leave this Nanyue Mansion smoothly with his wife and children.
But if it weren't for him loading all the grain in the shop and warehouse into the wagon, and then leaving Nanyue Mansion with his wife and children, the people in Nanyue Mansion would not have done it, and the people would have nowhere to buy grain if they wanted to.
It is precisely because Zhao Hongchang took away too much food that it caused others to be jealous.
Cui Qingyuan felt that if this Zhao Hongchang really went out to do business with a fleet of wagons of grain, and now his whereabouts are unknown, I am afraid that it will be more than lucky!
In this way, Cui Qingyuan can only sigh, and the time is also fate!
But Zhao Xiaobao's mother-in-law, whether she is sick or not, whether she died of illness or was killed by someone, you have to carefully inquire to understand the reason.
The most important point is that when Zhao Hongchang left with food, he also brought so much silver!
If something really happened to Zhao Hongchang, then the things of the Zhao family should also belong to Zhao Xiaobao.
And Zhao Xiaobao's mother-in-law, as Zhao Hongchang's wife, must know how much money Zhao Hongchang has.
