Chapter 435: You Told Me to Buy Her
The lieutenant walked in Luoyang City with the three good people in his mouth. If the three of them are good people, Chen Qingzhi, who has a very little white face temperament, can indeed be regarded as a good person. However, Dian Wei is not a good person in any way, compared with Zhao Yun and Chen Qingzhi, he is less agile than Chen Qingzhi, and Chen Qingzhi loses Zhao Yun's handsomeness. Chen Qingzhi signaled Zhao Yun and Dian Wei to be calm, the captain had already dismissed all his subordinates back to the barracks, and there was only one captain and one person who came with the three of them.
"I don't know where the captain is taking us?" walked for a while, but the road became more and more deviant, and now even Chen Qingzhi was suspicious, so he stepped forward and followed the captain and asked. It's not that he's afraid that the captain will eat black, I'm afraid it's hard to say who is black with Zhao Yun and Dian Wei, but Chen Qingzhi really can't understand what this captain is doing with these three good people suddenly pulling these three good people here.
The captain also seemed to sense Chen Qingzhi's worry, and said with a smile: "Forget it, you'll know when you arrive." Not far ahead, just turn the corner. ”
Chen Qingzhi and the three of them also nodded, stopped talking, and followed behind the captain and walked forward. Before he reached the end of the street, Chen Qingzhi heard the cries of a young woman and a child. Chen Qingzhi frowned, not knowing what this captain meant by bringing him here. When they turned the corner, they saw a medium-sized house.
There was still a white silk hanging on the door, and the color of the white silk was still very new, and it was obvious that the funeral had just begun. Chen Qingzhi and the three of them glanced at each other, and they all saw doubts in each other's eyes. The captain who was walking in front sighed, stepped forward and knocked on the door a few times. Soon an old man walked out. The door was opened. I saw the captain standing at the door with three people. hurriedly saluted the captain. The old man should bring a white silk hanging on it. He bowed down and said to the captain, "Captain Zhou is here, please come in." ”
"I've brought all three, let them come in too. Only now did Chen Qingzhi know that the school captain in front of him was surnamed Zhou. Captain Zhou saw the old man's puzzled eyes, explained to the old man, and walked straight inside. Not long after leaving, he took the white silk handed over by an old woman and wrapped it around his waist.
"Please, the old man has just passed away, and the family is in mourning. Please forgive me. The old man glanced at the three of them and hurriedly saluted them.
"The dead are great, and since we are here, we naturally want to pay homage to the host as a guest. Although Chen Qingzhi didn't understand that Captain Weishenme would bring himself here, since he had already arrived at the door of the family, and the family was in mourning, it would be rude to turn around and leave at this time. Chen Qingzhi arched his hand at the housekeeper, secretly instructed Zhao Yun and Dian Wei, and followed the old man in.
The courtyard is not very large, and the furnishings are very simple. In the center is a mourning hall. An old woman knelt on the ground weakly, and Captain Zhou, who led Chen Qingzhi over, was saying something to the old woman. The center of the mourning hall. A coffin was placed there, and next to it knelt a young girl and a boy who was only a few years old, both dressed in linen and filial piety, and knew at a glance that they were the children of the deceased. The old woman who was sitting there saw Chen Qingzhi and the three of them walking towards the door, and hurriedly greeted them.
"The guests are here, and the funeral reception at home is not considerate, and please forgive the guests. The old woman hurriedly took her pair of children to salute Chen Qingzhi, and her daughter and son both bit their lips and did not speak, but just saluted Chen Qingzhi. Captain Zhou stood aside, looking at Chen Qingzhi and the three of them with complicated expressions.
Chen Qingzhi and the three of them hurriedly returned the salute, no matter how much the other party brought him here, since he came, he naturally wanted to be courteous. Chen Qingzhi and the three of them bent down and replied to the old woman: "The old lady doesn't have to be polite, we rushed to disturb and hope that the old lady will not blame it." ”
"Don't say that when you go to the guest, the old woman really can't afford to be a guest with such a big gift. Out of respect for the dead and the old man, Chen Qingzhi and the three of them saluted the old woman quite heavily, which frightened the old woman and hurriedly stopped Chen Qingzhi.
Chen Qingzhi said a few more words to the old woman, then walked up with Zhao Yun and Dian Wei, picked up a stick of incense from the table and bowed three times. The old woman took her children to return the salute to Chen Qingzhi. Chen Qingzhi returned the salute to the old woman with a solemn face, and Captain Zhou sat there with a straight face. Captain Zhou said a word to the old woman, and led Chen Qingzhi and the three of them to the inner hall.
"This boy doesn't know what to call him, and the faces of the three don't seem to be from Luoyang, right?" Captain Zhou waited until Chen Qingzhi and the three of them sat down, and then arched his hand at Chen Qingzhi and asked. This question suddenly made Chen Qingyi stunned, and now he remembered that this Captain Zhou had indeed not asked his name when he brought himself here, and this Captain Zhou's surname had just been known from the old man's mouth.
"In the next surname Chen, the name is Ziyun, these two are in the next friend Zhao Long, Ziman. The next three people are indeed not Luoyang, we are from the imperial capital, and this time we happened to pass through Luoyang except for the practice, so we came in to visit for two days. Chen Qingzhi smiled and said to the captain in front of him, the captain opposite lowered his head and thought for a while after hearing the names of the three people, raised his head, and saw that the three people were looking at him with a smile, and shook his head helplessly.
"Below is Zhou Shan, the captain of the city gate of the Luoyang garrison, and he is looking for three people to help him this time. Zhou Shan observed the expressions of Chen Qingzhi and the others, as if he was thinking about something. Chen Qingzhi nodded at Zhou Shan and motioned for Zhou Shan to continue. Zhou Shan's face changed, and he seemed to have made a big decision, and said to Chen Qingzhi in a heavy tone: "I think the three of you have also seen the situation of this family, the owner of this family is a brother of my own family, and he is also a captain in the garrison. It's just, hey. ”
"If the captain has anything unspeakable, even if he says it, as long as our three brothers can help, he will definitely not refuse. Chen Qingzhi looked at the expression on Zhou Shan's face, and already had a general guess and understanding of this whole thing in his heart.
"Well, it made the three of them laugh. Zhou Shan smiled helplessly and said, "The three of them have also seen it, and now there is also a shortage of soldiers, and the current Luoyang City is not as good as before." Don't hide the three, this time I look for three people to come here, first, I see that the faces of the three people are chivalrous people, and secondly, the silver two on the three of you can help the family get out of difficulties, so I have the cheekiness to invite the three to come to the door, hoping that the three will not be surprised. ”
Zhou Xiaowei laughed, as the saying goes, rely on your parents at home and rely on your friends when you go out. Now the three of us brothers are fortunate to get acquainted with Captain Zhou in this Luoyang City, this is fate, as for the number of silver taels, only Captain Zhou needs to say a number, and the three of us brothers still don't care about money. Chen Qingzhi had roughly deduced from Zhou Shan's words what kind of person Zhou Shan was, and if he could spend some money to make friends with such a person, even if it was not beneficial, it would definitely not have the slightest harm, and maybe he could get some information about the garrison from him.
"That's a real nuisance. Zhou Shan sighed helplessly and said: "The three have seen it, my brother is now dead, leaving them orphans and widows It is not easy to live, and my brother was framed before he died, and owed thousands of taels of debts, you also know that I am on duty in the army, and I can't take out such money for a while, so I hope the three of them can buy this family." ”
"Why do you need to be like this, how much Captain Zhou needs, just give a number. Chen Qing's heart was stunned, buy this one, this request made the three of them stunned, there are sales of everything, and they have never heard of salesmen. Besides, he is still a family, he Chen Qingzhi does not want to settle down in Luoyang City, he is now a rogue in the imperial court, who to buy.
"The three of them don't need to be like this, I also know the difficulties of the three, so I don't ask Chen Gongzi to buy them all, my brother left a pair of children when he left, and his daughter Zhou Ling is eighteen years old this year, at a prime age, Chen Gongzi only needs to buy her. Zhou Shan looked at Chen Qingzhi with embarrassment, Chen Qingzhi also opened his mouth slightly, and looked at Zhou Shan a little stunned, unable to figure out what Zhou Shan meant.
