Chapter 276: The Truth
The more Bai Sanzhuang thought about it, the more angry he became.
thought that he would be able to earn the Shen family's silver, but he didn't expect the Shen family to beat his sister's idea.
Bai Sanzhuang regretted that he had not thought through at that time and accepted the order for light yarn.
After calming down, Bai Sanzhuang's mind turned, and he walked through the lively wine shops and teahouses one by one, and only said to the guy that he was looking for someone.
came to a lively teahouse near the river, walked around inside, and heard someone talking about the Shen family, Bai Sanzhuang's heart moved, ordered a pot of tea and sat down.
“…… Brother Liu, you have made a lot of progress these days, saying that you have a few thousand-year-old ginseng plants in your store, and such old ginseng can only be eaten in Shen Mansion and Zhou Mansion in our Huaicheng, right? ”
"I also bought it by chance from a merchant on the side of Baishui in Black Mountain, but you are indeed right, this ginseng is indeed eaten by only a few restaurants in Huaicheng. The Zhou family didn't know, but the Shen family had already sent a little servant to pick it up. Dissatisfied with Brother Zhu, the Shen family was so generous that he suddenly gave an extra hundred taels of silver. ”
Bai Sanzhuang's ears caught the news of the Shen family, and he wanted to inquire about it, but it didn't take much effort to get it in the teahouse.
Bai Sanzhuang slowly looked towards the table next to him, a man in his thirties with a purple face who was called Brother Liu and a man with a beard who was called Brother Zhu were gossiping.
"I don't know if Brother Liu heard about the little son of the Shen family, saying that he killed his parents when he was born, and he couldn't leave the house before the master approved the weak crown, so that Shen Junshan and Mrs. Shen could rest in peace. What is this personality? Really? Brother Zhu asked in a low voice.
When Bai Sanzhuang heard this, his heart moved.
I only heard Brother Liu chuckle and said, "Do you believe this? You have just moved to our Huaicheng for half a year, so you naturally don't know the twists and turns inside. The little son of the Shen family came at a bad time, Shen Junshan had an accident in Shu at that time, and the eldest lady who was pregnant under the coercion of the Shen family patriarch was born prematurely, and the eldest lady went as soon as the little son landed. The little boy may have been in poor health since he was a child because he did not have the protection of his parents, and he continued to take medicine every day, so the Shen family found a statement that the master approved his life. ”
"Brother Zhu, which of our crude medicine shops has not sent medicine to the Shen family's son. As for the little boy, no one has ever seen such a big one. I went to Shen's house to deliver medicine and met a porter, saying that the little boy had never been out outside the second gate, and the servants who were waiting outside the second door of the house had never seen him. You know about his illness...... It can't be hidden for a long time, but it's not an excuse to use the master's criticism that he can't go out. It's all bluffing. ”
Bai Sanzhuang's heart was cold when he heard this.
It's a good Shen family, and he actually had such an idea.
“…… I also heard that this son needs to marry early, and he also needs a girl with a blessed life. What's going on? Brother Zhu asked thoughtfully.
"This is the decoction is illegal, and it can only be pinned on false statements." Brother Liu shook his head and continued, "It's not a secret that the son of the Shen family needs a girl with a blessed life, and it is spread all over the street. In the past two years, there have been lucky girls in the counties and townships of Huaicheng from time to time, and nine times out of ten they are people who want to get the Shen family to have a good family and don't care whether their daughter lives or dies. ”
……
The more Bai Sanzhuang listened, the more frightened he felt.
Although Bai Sanzhuang felt that his sister-in-law was the best, even the emperor blessed the lord of Rong. But in such a powerful family, the girl's background is still just in the countryside, and she can't climb into a wealthy family like Shen Mansion.
It's strange that Shen Mansion wants to marry his sister with a huge amount of wealth, and it turns out that the little son of Shen Mansion is a weak and sick person who can't even get out of the second door.
Lao Bai's family is not a family that sells women for glory, let alone the Shen Mansion, it is a family that is more powerful than the Shen Mansion, and such a son is not worthy of his sister.
"Guest officer, your tea is cold, are you refilling a pot of hot one?" The shopkeeper came to Bai Sanzhuang with a smile on his face.
Bai Sanzhuang woke up, and the table beside him was empty.
So he stuffed a little broken silver into the little second-hand and said, "Thank you little brother for reminding me, I'm leaving." ”
"The guest officer will come back next time." The shopkeeper held the silver in his arms and sent the guests off enthusiastically.
Bai Sanzhuang walked out of the teahouse and heard a scolding from the noodle restaurant next door: "What noodles do you have no money to eat?" You don't want to put your luggage down for face money. ”
Bai Santian looked up and saw a man with a scar on his face and tattered clothes, standing in front of the noodle restaurant, helpless and hoarse, and said in a hoarse voice: "Shopkeeper, I also found that the silver was lost when I was eating noodles just now, I didn't mean not to give it, you let me go back and get it." ”
The shopkeeper said with disgust: "I have seen a lot of beggars like you who cheat to eat and drink." Your scarred face is so scary, you entered my noodle restaurant and scared away the guests, in addition to your face money or the loss of money, you can't leave without compensation. ”
The scar-faced man opened his mouth and couldn't speak, and the owner of the noodle shop asked the guy to take his luggage.
Bai Sanzhuang couldn't stand it, walked over, and said to the shopkeeper's companion: "I paid for this guest." ”
As he spoke, he took out the broken silver and handed it over.
The shopkeeper took the broken silver and sneered: "What about the loss of scaring away the guests?" ”
Bai Sanzhuang continued to smile and said: "Opening the door to do business should have been a good match. It is unreasonable for you to lose, how can you prove that your guests were scared away by him. I advise the shopkeeper to do business and make money. ”
The shopkeeper snorted, asked the guy to throw the luggage over, and waved his hand to drive the scar man and Bai Sanzhuang away.
"Thank you for your help, can you leave your name, and I will repay you later." The scar man said in a hoarse voice.
Bai Sanzhuang smiled and said, "It's not worth mentioning, everyone outside will have a difficult time." ”
As he spoke, he took out a piece of silver and stuffed it into the other party.
When Bai Sanzhuang turned to leave, the scar man looked at his figure and nodded slightly. A face with scars and a smile looks weird and terrifying.
If Xiao Fuyuan was here, she would definitely remember that this person was Steward Luo who she met when she bought her a house in Yangfeng County.
Zhou Mansion, Lotus Garden.
Bai Panmei and Erlang came from school to meet their families.
Among them, the most excited is Xie Chuntao, this son couldn't stand up on his legs when he was a child, and he didn't stay by her side for a few years after his leg recovered, so he left her to go out to study.
These days, she has been thinking about Erlang day and night, and she cried when she saw Erlang.
"What are you crying about, your son is here to study." Mrs. Bai couldn't get used to seeing her granddaughter-in-law crying at someone else's house.
But Erlang was not so sad, and together with the fourth child of the Bai family, he kept circling around Xiao Fuyuan.
"Sister, I can finally see you."
"Little aunt, what I've been thinking about most these days is you."
Xiao Fuyuan rubbed the fourth brother's hand, touched Erlang's head, and switched roles between the group pet and the elders.
The fourth elder of the Bai family and Erlang saw that Xiao Fuyuan's attitude towards them was still as close as before, and they were extremely excited.
Before Xiao Fuyuan could speak, Mrs. Bai said, "You two hug Xiao Yuanbao and touch her blessings, and your studies will go more smoothly." ”
Xiao Fuyuan: "......"
