Chapter 16: This misunderstanding is a big one
Of course, when Tao Qiqi saw the guard, his reaction was the same.
After queuing for a long time, I bought all the commonly used medicines, paid the money, took the medicines, and Tao Qiqi left the pharmacy.
Tao Qiqi, who was going to take the path out of the city, just walked out of the big alley and was about to cross the small alley, when the guards were waiting for him in front.
The guard respectfully bowed to Tao Qiqi and saluted, "Childe, my son-in-law is invited!" ”
When Tao Qiqi heard this, he looked back and forth, left and right, and after finding that there was no one, he said, "Lead the way!" ”
Since the other party is waiting for her here, instead of wasting time asking here, she should go over and ask herself.
Then Tao Qiqi followed the man's guard around the street and came to a small courtyard on West Street.
The two entered the courtyard, closed the courtyard door, and the guard said, "My son-in-law is waiting for his son-in-law in the main house." ”
After hearing this, Tao Qiqi went to the main house, and the man and the lady were both inside.
Seeing that Tao Qiqi was coming, Mrs. quickly got up and prepared to pour tea for Tao Qiqi.
Seeing this, Tao Qiqi said, "Madam, don't bother, I'm not thirsty." My family is still waiting for me outside the city, so just tell me if you have anything. ”
Hearing this, the man gently opened the box on the table.
Seeing that it was a box of silver inside, Tao Qiqi was puzzled and asked, "What does Childe mean by this?" ”
Man: "Childe fled with his family, but went south?" ”
Tao Qiqi: "Let's get to the point!" ”
"Well, as soon as I look at Childe, I know that he is a cheerful person. There was a reluctant request below, I wanted to ask Gongzi to help escort my mother to Nanguan, and after that, Gongzi only needed to hand over my mother to a person named Jiang Dong. This silver is regarded as the hardship fee for the son. ”
"If I hadn't lost my memory, I remember that we only met once, and there were only a handful of things that we had ever said, and you just handed over your mother to a stranger? Aren't you afraid that I'll throw her away halfway? Or do you exchange her for more silver? ”
"You won't." The man replied without hesitation.
"So confident."
"No, not self-confidence, but believing, believing that a man who dares to sacrifice his life many times will never do such an unrighteous thing."
After hearing this, Tao Qiqi looked at the man.
The man continued: "Since Childe doesn't want others to know, we naturally won't say more. Just because Gongzi sacrificed his life many times to save him, I will believe you. I can rest assured that I will hand over my mother to my son. ”
"Then you're not afraid that I'm sent by your enemy? Deliberately approaching you, gaining your trust, and then taking you into a trap step by step? ”
The man replied, "Aren't you, aren't you?" If you are one of their people, they can have subordinates as skilled as you, so why bother to get close to me, isn't it easier to let you shoot directly. ”
Tao Qiqi nodded: "Although the truth is like this, but there is another point, how can you be sure that I will definitely agree to you?" You must know that the little money you gave is not enough for me to take the whole family on the adventure to escort me all the way. ”
"I'm not sure you'll say yes, but I'll have to try, what if you do? And last night's incident, my mother had already told me that I didn't know that the person in the carriage was my mother before I saved people. In this way, it is enough to affirm the good deeds of the son, and he will never watch the people being oppressed. ”
"It's not impossible for me to agree, you answer me a few questions first, and then I'll think about it."
"Okay, those who can answer must know everything and say everything." The man did not hesitate to respond.
"First question, why are those people racking their brains so much to kill you?" Tao Qiqi asked.
The man replied, "For the right!" ”
"Second question, you stayed this time, but are you going back to Du'an?"
When the man heard this question, he looked at Tao Qiqi, thought about it and replied, "That's right." ”
"Then you're not afraid of never coming back? What will happen to your mother in the future? ”
"If the world is in chaos and the people are not able to make a living, how can they be at ease?"
After listening to the man's answer, Tao Qiqi nodded and responded without hesitation: "Okay, I will answer your request." But instead of escorting your wife to Nanguan for you, I promised you that I would accompany your mother to wait for you here, and when you return victoriously, I will leave. ”
Tao Qiqi is not worried about the danger on the road, nor is he disgusted with too little silver. She just understands that as a mother, she worries about her son's heart.
Listening to Tao Qiqi's words, the lady standing aside instantly turned red, and her voice choked out three words: "Thank you!" ”
Looking at his wife's appearance, Tao Qiqi raised the corners of his mouth and said, "It just so happens that I escaped with my family for nearly half a month, and it's good to come to the city to rest and rest." ”
Man: "Don't worry, Childe, I will let people arrange everything here, even though Childe will take his family to live here." ”
"Okay, but my family is still out of the city, so I need to pick them up and take them into the city first."
"Okay." The man nodded.
Then Tao Qiqi left the courtyard and went straight to the city gate.
After Tao Qiqi left, the man said to his guard: "Chang Ning, you go and clean up the room." Chang Wu, you go buy some rice, flour, grain and oil and come back. ”
"Yes, Childe." Chang Wuying also went out of the yard and went straight to the grain store.
After Tao Qiqi and Tao Qi Niang met here, they briefly told everyone about the matter, and the group drove the carriage into the city again.
Back in the yard just now, Chang Wu, who happened to go out to buy rice, flour, grain and oil, also came back.
Seeing this, the man said to Chang Wu: "Chang Wu, you and Chang Ning carry the luggage of Gongzi and his family to the room." ”
Chang Wu was about to respond, when he suddenly remembered something, but he didn't know how to speak.
Man: "Something, say." ”
Chang Wu slowly spoke: "That is, how should the room be arranged?" There are only four rooms in the courtyard, and now we have occupied three, and there is only one left, if Childe and his two brothers are arranged to live with us, then we have five people in the room, where to live, can live!! ”
After hearing this, the man didn't think about it and said, "Then let the little boy live in a room with me!" You and Chang Ning clean up the firewood room and sleep in the firewood room! ”
"No way!!" Tao Qiqi, Tao Qi Niang, and Fang Yu directly vetoed it loudly in unison.
The voices of the three startled everyone at the scene.
Chang Wu misunderstood the meaning of the three of them, and was moved, and said stupidly: "Hehe-it's okay, I'll clean up the firewood room with Chang Ning and deal with it for one night." ”
Tao Qiqi hurriedly explained: "No, we didn't mean that. I mean, I, I don't have to worry about my mother, I'm in a room with them, I, I'll just lay on the floor. ”
As soon as Tao Qiqi finished speaking, Ma Daha Zhao Hu continued: "Yes, it's not like they haven't slept together anyway, and the three of them usually sleep in the same carriage." ”
Zhao Hu said more than half of the words, and ushered in Tao Qiqi's knife eye, and finally the voice of fear became smaller and smaller, but he still finished the words completely.
The courtyard was so big that the man and his guards naturally listened to it word for word.
At this time, if the eyes can also kill, Zhao Hu may have died thousands of times.
After listening to Zhao Hu's words, Chang Wu and Chang Ning were already stunned.
And the man naturally mistakenly thought that Tao Qiqi and Fang Yu were a pair, so only a moment of loss flashed on his face, and then he said: "That's okay, then let the little boy and his mother share a room." The other two sons have a room. ”
