Chapter 154: Pure Coincidence
On the way home, Zhou Ruhai never knew whether to tell his family about his cruel guess, because he wasn't sure if his family could bear it after knowing the news.
Especially Mrs. Zhou, after finding out about Zhou Ming's disappearance last night, she was frightened, and the whole person panicked, if she told her this bad news again, she might not be able to bear it at that time, and she would have returned to the West.
After thinking about it for a while, Zhou Ruhai finally decided not to tell his family about his cruel guess, at least let them be psychologically prepared before they knew the truth.
And the most important point is that although Zhou Ruhai thinks that his guess is not far from ten, after all, there is no evidence to support his guess, what if there is a miracle? What if after returning home, Zhou Zhou Ming is sitting at home, waiting for him to go back?
Although Zhou Ruhai knew that the last idea was simply a fantasy, he still couldn't help but hope that such a scene could really appear.
Just as he was thinking about what excuse to use to comfort his wife after returning home, Zhou Zhou Ming suddenly appeared in front of him, which made him surprised, happy and angry, and the huge reversal of emotions made him almost faint and fall to the ground.
Fortunately, at the last critical moment, he stabilized his mind and hugged his son, which on the one hand could prevent him from falling, and on the other hand, it could also make him really feel the existence of his son, and he hoped that in this way of holding him tightly, he would not disappear again.
Zhou Zhou Ming saw that his old father was crying too much, for fear that he would cry and hurt his body, so he hurriedly comforted: "Dad, don't you cry, didn't I come back with all my beards and shadows?" If your old man cries badly, he really can't afford to be a son. ”
After crying for a while, Zhou Ruhai felt much more comfortable in his heart, stabilized his emotions, and glared at Zhou Ming angrily: "What are you doing kid?" I can't find you suddenly, do you know that my family is worried about you? Your mother almost died! Your lady went to look for you in the middle of the night, and I guess she hasn't come home yet!
You said that if you are really in a hurry, you can't send a letter to your family? You're happy that everyone in your family is in a hurry, aren't you? ”
The old family on the side, when they heard the old master say this, they agreed very much, and at the same time couldn't help but say: "Young master, today's incident is all your fault."
Didn't you see that yesterday at home because you didn't come back, the panic was a mess.
After the young grandmother went out to look for you, the old man was afraid that she would not find you alone, so he sent out all the subordinates, and his old man couldn't wait for the news in the end, and even went out in person to visit his old friends one by one, hoping that they could see the past and help find you.
Alas, there were a few people at that time, and their attitude towards the master was like sending Hanako.
Even those of us who are subordinates can't bear such a bird anger.
But in order to find you, our master can only swallow his anger. ”
After listening to the words of the old family, Zhou Zhou Ming could imagine that his father must have suffered a lot of eyes last night in order to find himself, after all, his old man has no achievements in officialdom, and in the eyes of others, there is no use value at all.
Officialdom is very realistic, it is about the exchange of interests, if you have no usable use value, in the eyes of others, it is not worth mentioning at all, and it is even more impossible to entrust others to do things.
"It's all my fault!" Zhou Zhouming's attitude of admitting his mistake was very sincere, and as he spoke, he smiled all over his face, carefully supported his father, and walked home, "You two have suffered so many sins in order to find me, it's really embarrassing for you."
I promise, this is the first time this kind of unexplained disappearance has happened, and it is also the last time it happens, no matter what important things I encounter in the future, even if I can't come back in the middle, I will send someone back to report the news, and I will definitely not let you be so anxious again! ”
Seeing that Zhou Zhouming's attitude of admitting his mistakes was so good, the breath in Zhou Ruhai's heart gradually disappeared, and all that was left was Zhou Ming's love and worry: "Ming'er, what happened to you last night?" Why didn't you come home overnight? I asked one of your uncles last night to send someone to look for you, but when they came back, they said that they had not found your people, but had found out what had happened in the city last night.
I was worried about what you had to do with this big event, so I hurriedly asked, but those people said that the news of this big event was very tightly sealed, and they didn't know about it at all. ”
Zhou Zhou Ming frowned, thinking that something was wrong, this arrest operation has always been carried out in secret, Lao Han attaches great importance to this operation, and must have ordered his subordinates to keep it a secret, as for Xia Dezhang and Deng Tong, he had already given an order to prohibit them from spreading this matter.
It is really incredible that this operation can still be known to the outside world under such a secret situation.
What went wrong?
Zhou Zhou Ming carefully recalled the whole process of yesterday's arrest operation, and suddenly his eyes lit up, thinking of Yang Shijun and the four white-clothed guards under him.
When these five people left the Yamen of the General Affairs Office, they were treated very badly, especially Yang Shijun, who not only almost lost his life, but was also blackmailed by Han Pingzhi for 200,000 taels of silver.
In this arrest operation, Yang Shijun himself also paid a lot of hard work, the four white-clothed guards he brought, and even played an important role, they could have been rewarded by the imperial court after this mission, but Yang Shijun did not know whether to live or die, but he died against himself, so that the credit was not earned, but he lost 200,000 taels of silver in vain, suffered such a loss, and no one could bear this breath of bird's anger.
Yang Shijun was angry, but he didn't dare to do anything to himself and Han Pingzhi, all he could do was to use his hands and feet on this case to eliminate the hatred in his heart.
Zhou Zhou Ming couldn't help but laugh in his heart, feeling that Yang Shijun was simply a fool, not to mention that he deliberately leaked the news, whether there was any damage to this arrest, even if there was damage, he had no good fruit to eat, after all, he was also deeply involved in this arrest, if there was a problem in the action, the court would condemn him, and he would not be able to escape.
Zhou Ming wanted to answer his father's question as soon as possible, but when he opened his mouth, he suddenly found that on the road next to him, there were already many passers-by looking at him and his father.
"Dad, this is not the place to talk, let's go home first, you have been busy all night, you must be hungry, I will go home and cook a pot of porridge, and also serve a bowl for you and your old family." You've eaten your fill, and I'll tell you more about my experience last night. ”
Zhou Ming hugged his old father and walked into the yard.
Zhou Ruhai nodded, and did not raise any objections, after all, he knew in his heart that the thing that could make Zhou Ming not return overnight must be not trivial, there are many people on the street, and if someone hears the secret, the consequences will be unimaginable.
The old family followed closely behind, and after entering the gate of the Zhou family, when he was about to close the door, he found that the pedestrians outside followed, all of them stood outside the gate of the Zhou family, and frequently looked inside the door.
The old family is very experienced, and he knows that if these people are surrounded at the gate for no reason, it is likely to attract right and wrong, so he smiled all over his face and said to these people amiably: "The big guy is scattered, my family is nothing to see, just now my master was blinded by the sand on the street, so he shed a few tears, this is no fuss!" ”
The crowd of onlookers at the door, hearing the old family say this, suddenly became all interested and gradually dispersed.
When all these people were gone, the old family poked out half of their heads, looked carefully left and right, and found that no one was gone, so they closed the door.
"Sir, are you back?"
As soon as Zhou Ming and his old father entered the courtyard, they saw Chuniel coming out of the kitchen with two bowls of porridge in her hands.
"Well, is the young grandmother back?" Zhou Ruhai immediately asked Lin Ajiao for news.
Chunni shook her head: "No, after dawn, the young grandmother said that it was too slow for the two of them to look together, so they separated from me, and then I really didn't have the strength, and I wanted to know if the young master had gone home, so I came back first." ”
Zhou Ruhai nodded: "Hurry up and eat something and have a good rest." ”
Sending Chun Nier away, Zhou Ruhai looked at Zhou Ming with a serious face: "Ming'er, hurry up and get your lady back, people have almost looked for you for a day and a night."
If you look for it any longer, you won't be able to stand it! ”
Zhou Ming went out just now, just planning to find his mother, but he ran into his father halfway and forgot about this stubble.
"Dad, don't worry, I'll go find it. Actually, I'll tell you the truth, it was a pure coincidence that we bumped into each other on the road just now, and I was going to look for the lady at the time. ”
"You have a little conscience!" Zhou Ruhai pretended to be angry.
Zhou Zhou Ming was counted down, not only was he not sad, but he was moved, because he knew that this was a manifestation of his old father's love for him.
Zhou Ming hurriedly helped Zhou Ruhai to the study.
In the study, Mrs. Zhou and Huan'er were drinking porridge with relish, and suddenly saw the master come in, and both of them were startled.
After Mrs. Zhou drank a few bowls of porridge, her strength had almost recovered, she stood up and said gently, "Master, where have you been this night?" I told Ming'er just now, ask him to go to you and your daughter-in-law quickly. ”
Zhou Ruhai sat on the chair, raised his hand to signal his wife to sit down, and said with a sad face: "Alas, don't mention it." If it weren't for our son, I really didn't know I was so useless.
I used to think that my face was worth a lot, but last night I realized that it was all wishful thinking.
If you really encounter something, you ask for someone to come to the door, no one cares about you at all, and a few former friends don't even come out to see me, so they just let the next person send me away, just like sending me to Hanako. ”
When Zhou Zhou Ming heard this, he felt very uncomfortable.
