Chapter 12: A Chance Encounter with a Teenager
Back at home, facing a bed, the two looked at each other for a long time and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
"I'd better go out to sleep."
There was embarrassment in the air, and Xie Lanzhou was about to leave the room as he spoke.
"No, don't really catch a cold."
As he spoke, he took a quilt and spread it a meter away from the bed, after all, the house was not that big.
"Come on, it's better to lay on the floor than to sleep outside. Don't look at it as summer now, it's not good to be infected with wind chill at night. ”
Xie Lanzhou had no choice but to give up.
Both of them were tightly wrapped, neither of them looked at each other, and they turned their backs to Xie Lanzhou and recognized at a glance that it was the young man they met on the street today.
I saw that his eyes were completely different when he met him on the street, full of vicious murderous aura, as if he would kill someone half a life at a glance.
Although there was only one person, the dozen or so black-clothed people on the opposite side were actually at a disadvantage.
I saw the sword in his hand like a white snake spitting letters, hissing through the wind, and like a swimming dragon shuttling, walking in all directions, sometimes light as a swallow, pointing the sword up, sometimes suddenly like lightning, and the fallen leaves collapsed.
Although Xuan Niang is skilled, she can only have a tie with this young man.
At this time, Yu Yaozhi rushed back.
The thing like a flying needle in his hand at some point accurately poisoned several black-clothed people to the ground.
"Why did you come back?"
Xie Lanzhou was a little surprised.
"If you don't come back, you'll die at my doorstep?"
As he spoke, he joined in.
Xuan Niang saw that things were not good, so she thought about retreating first.
"Withdraw first!"
So he disappeared with the people at the end of the mountain.
The young man wanted to chase again, but was stopped by Xie Lanzhou.
"This brother, thank you for saving me with righteousness."
The young man's eyes showed surprise, and he seemed to be judging the murderous aura just now.
"It doesn't matter."
Yu Jiaozhi looked the young man up and down.
"If I'm not mistaken, you're... Brother Fang? ”
Seeing that the young man didn't speak, Yu Yaozhi was even more sure that his eyes couldn't deceive people.
"Don't you remember? I saw you when I was a child, and I will never forget your swordsmanship. ”
This person is Fang Huai, who has been friends with the Yu family for many years, and is also one of the few gentle people who was gentle to him when he was young.
The Fang family is a famous and decent family, and has always been known for its profound swordsmanship, not to mention the head of the Fang family, Fang Huai, as the only son of the Fang family, has been learning swordsmanship since he was a child.
At the age of ten, you can compete with adult swordsmen, and your skills can be seen.
But why did the famous family of the year come to such a situation.
"You've mistaken someone."
Fang Huai buried his face in his neck, and his voice trembled a little.
His face was covered with bandages, and Yu Jiaozhi felt that he might not want others to recognize him, so he didn't continue to ask.
"What the hell is going on? Are those people you want just now? ”
Yu Yaozhi can see from his years of experience as an agent that the skills of the group of people just now are by no means ordinary people.
Xie Lanzhou is wanted by the imperial court, and if it is really exposed, it must only be sent by the imperial court to arrest him.
But the group of people just now looked like they were all masked, and they couldn't see the light when they thought about it, and every move seemed to want to kill Xie Lanzhou.
All the things that happened in this series made Yu Yaozhi inevitably a little suspicious, and she felt that Xie Lanzhou must have hidden something.
"Maybe it was the same people from yesterday, it doesn't matter. Ah, thank you to this brother. ”
"It's me who should thank you."
The boy's voice was hoarse, and it sounded low.
Xie Lanzhou couldn't help but be stunned, was what he said a bun?
"I haven't eaten in days, and if it weren't for the buns you gave me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to make it last."
Why did the Fang family, which had infinite scenery back then, fall to this day, Yu Jiaozhi couldn't help but fall into contemplation, and the memories in her mind pulled her back to her childhood.
Six years ago, Yu Shen was just a petty official, but he could be regarded as having food and clothing.
"Father! Look at my sister snatching my stuff again! ”
Yu Youwei cried with a handkerchief in her hand as she spoke, which made people feel so pitiful.
What Yu Yaozhi held in his hand was a hairpin given to him by his mother-in-law.
It was a white hosta, bright and clear, with a faint hint of milky white in the jade color, even more delicate, and a few tassels hung down, blowing with the wind, making a crisp sound.
"No, father, this is my mother-in-law..."
Yu Yaozhi was a little aggrieved.
He and his mother-in-law were already short of food and clothing in this family, Yu Shen spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, and since marrying Yu Youwei's mother Yu Hanzhi, he has targeted himself everywhere.
This hairpin was the mother's last dowry.
Seeing that it was winter, he just handed over the hairpin to himself in the early morning, let himself go out to buy some coal to keep warm, and wanted to add a few warm clothes to Yu Miaozhi.
Unexpectedly, Yu Youwei saw it, so she wanted to come to this hairpin, but seeing that Yu Youwei didn't give it, she came to Yu Shen to make trouble.
"You, you, won't you let this point your sister? It's just a hairpin, don't bother me because of this little sesame big thing! ”
Yu Shen held a roll in his hand and didn't know what it was, and became impatient with the two sisters.
No matter what happens, Yu Shen always defends Yu Youwei first, regardless of right or wrong.
always likes to declare that what is old and young is orderly, let Yu Miao let her everywhere, and Yu Miao has long been used to it.
But this hairpin must not give in.
"This is mine, why should I give it to her, it's mine!"
Yu Jiaozhi held the hairpin in his hand, as if he was going to bleed his hand in the next second.
"I just want it! I just want it! What I say is mine is mine! ”
Yu Youwei sat on the ground and began to splash and roll.
And Yu Shen is not surprised by this, he is extremely spoiled by his daughter, but not for Miao Zhi.
As a middle-aged man, he is already in his thirties and forties, but he is still only a petty official.
I am also the first place in the township test, so how can I be willing to stop here.
What's more, he has been in this small county town for three or four years, and if His Majesty really intends to promote him, he will not throw himself in this small place.
Recently, he wanted to give his career a try.
Naturally, I don't have time to care about the trivial affairs of these two villains.
"You two go out and make trouble! Don't get in my way! ”
As soon as the words landed, Yu Youwei also had the foresight to see that her father, who usually doted on her very much, must have something to do at this time.
So he quickly got up and patted the dust on his body, and stopped crying.
Yu Miaozhi ran out of the mansion with a hairpin, and she refused to sell this hairpin.
But my mother was already frail and sickly, and during this time, she seemed to be infected with a wind cold, and she could often hear her coughing in the middle of the night.
She didn't want clothes, she wasn't afraid of the cold, she just wanted her mother to be safe.
So he went to the pharmacy alone.
"I... I want to buy some herbs for the treatment of lung diseases, how much does it cost? ”
Yu Xiaozhi is timid, she doesn't go out much on weekdays.
The women who have not left the cabinet do not go out much on weekdays, and if it were not for the fact that there was no maid and attendant by her mother's side, she would not let herself have a child.
So I don't know much about the price on the market.
I saw that the shopkeeper had a shrewd and calculating eyebrow, and seeing that she was a child, he began to make up his mind.
"But you're caught in the cold? That's not cheap. ”
As he spoke, he took a few medicinal herbs and placed them in front of her.
"You see, each of these medicinal materials is more expensive than the other, of course, the effect of this medicine is also excellent, and you will be cured after a few doses of medicine."
It can be said that my eyelashes trembled slightly.
But the hairpin in her hand was tightly held by her, and she didn't want to exchange it for this.
"But I don't have any money, I can do the work for you."
