Chapter Ninety-Four: How Can the Human Heart Be Tested?

Walking in front is Li Dachun, his mental state is quite good, and his appearance has not changed much, he took the tofu with a tray and walked to the stall, and then looked at the back, Zhang Xiaochuan's eyes suddenly lit up. I saw that the woman's big eyes, clear and transparent, very aura, her nose bridge was high, her skin was white and red, as smooth as a baby's skin, it could be broken by blowing, and her long black hair was simply tied up, draped over the back of her shoulders, shining in the sun. She has a slender figure, a beautiful posture, and a smile on her face. Her fingers were slender and white, and she also carried a tray and moved the lotus step gently. Zhang Xiaochuan has seen many stunning women, but none of them are as beautiful and beautiful as her. Although she is only plain clothes and plain skirts, she is still radiant, the name of "Sai Xi Shi" can be said to be worthy of the name, although I don't know how Xi Shi was born, but she is definitely the most beautiful woman she has ever seen. No wonder even the little ones come to watch.

There are more and more people in the back, and they want to squeeze to the front to see it more really, and some people start to push it, and suddenly Zhang Xiaochuan was also pushed, he was looking at it while thinking about his thoughts, and he was caught off guard, he was pushed forward and hit the person in front.

The man turned around, she was about the same height as Zhang Xiaochuan, her head was big and round, and she glared at Zhang Xiaochuan viciously. When she saw that Zhang Xiaochuan was old and dirty, there was a lot of disgust in her eyes, and she said in her mouth, "The old thing, the old thing is called Huazi, and the old is not serious." She came out with three "old" words in a row, Zhang Xiaochuan was angry, and he was going to do something to make her a heel, make her ugly in public, and give her a big embarrassment. I saw that the "Sai Xi Shi" was waving to him, "Uncle, come here!" Zhang Xiaochuan looked left and right, but didn't see any "uncle", these people on the left and right, some of them bought tofu, and some watched the excitement, none of them were more than forty years old. Zhang Xiaochuan realized that she was calling herself, and at this time, the person in front of him got out of the way, and he walked to the stall.

"Uncle, are you hungry?" "Sai Xi Shih's voice is extremely good, with concern. Zhang Xiaochuan looked at her, remembering that he had been treated as an old man just now, so he made a mistake, nodded and said, "But。。。。。。 I don't have silver taels. Zhang Xiaochuan lowered his head slightly, making a very embarrassed look. "It's okay, uncle. With that, she went to cut the tofu. "Xue Yao, hurry up and help!" Tofu Shih Tzu glanced at her with disgust and urged her. "Got it, Mom. Li Xueyao cut a large piece of tofu down, put a piece of paper and handed it to Zhang Xiaochuan. Zhang Xiaochuan hesitated for a moment, considering whether to take it or not. "Uncle, take it and eat it!" Li Xueyao smiled and motioned for him to take the tofu. Zhang Xiaochuan took the tofu, thanked him, turned around and walked away.

Zhang Xiaochuan came out of the crowd, found a corner and squatted down, the tofu had just come out of the pot, hot, and fragrant, Zhang Xiaochuan couldn't help but take a bite on it, and then ate it bite by bite. As he ate, he imagined the plight of the beggars, and he didn't know how many rolls he had to endure before he could beg for a bite to eat. Zhang Xiaochuan pondered the state of mind of the beggars, and after a while, he finished eating a piece of tofu.

Zhang Xiaochuan faintly heard people's discussions, "'Sai Xi Shi' is really kind, this old man is blessed." "Yes, when 'Sai Xi Shi' also rewarded me with a piece of tofu to eat!" "'Sai Xi Shi' hands are so beautiful, how wonderful it would be if I could touch a handful!" The man imagined that his mouth even made a "tsk" sound. "Alas, if we can see her every day, we will be content. Someone sighed and continued, "Immortal figures." Zhang Xiaochuan listened to all kinds of words, some envy, some praise, some jealousy, and even more obscene words, there were many people here, and there was an endless stream all morning.

It was almost noon, some people were called home for dinner, and one did not hear his wife shouting, and his wife twisted his ears and pulled them back, and the rest of the people scattered in a burst of laughter. Zhang Xiaochuan stood up and hesitated, what should I do next? He glanced at the tofu stall, Li Xueyao was looking at him, Zhang Xiaochuan turned around to leave. "Uncle, you wait. Zhang Xiaochuan stopped when he heard her shout, and after a while, Li Xueyao brought a piece of tofu, two cakes and some pickled vegetables out. Aunt Li followed behind and said, "I'm used to eating and running legs, how can this kind of person feel distressed!" Li Xueyao turned around and said, "Mom, you don't have to worry about it." She walked straight forward and handed these things to Zhang Xiaochuan, smiled and said, "Uncle, take it and eat it!" Without waiting for Zhang Xiaochuan to thank him, he turned around and walked back.

Zhang Xiaochuan was very surprised when he held these foods in both hands, but he didn't expect Li Xueyao to surpass Aunt Li in many aspects, she was beautiful, kind, and generous. "What should I do?" Zhang Xiaochuan began to contradict himself in his heart and began to constantly struggle for himself. One voice said, give up, don't hurt her, another said no. Zhang Xiaochuan struggled for a long time, and finally decided to think of a lesson to Aunt Li, and persuaded himself in his heart that he should try not to hurt Li Xueyao.

Zhang Xiaochuan ate all these things, and when the sun was shining warmly, Zhang Xiaochuan felt sleepy, "Where to squint for a while, if you have, go to the gate of your house, the more you don't want to see me, the more I will respond to you, and I will consume it with you." Zhang Xiaochuan thought like this, and when he saw that there was no one around, he moved to the gate of Aunt Li's house, and sat down against the gate, the sun was very warm, and after a while, he fell asleep.

"Go away, go away, you are called Huazi, you really have to climb the pole in your face, and you have to inch in. Zhang Xiaochuan was woken up and found that someone was kicking him, he opened his eyes and saw that it was Aunt Li, so he closed his eyes again and ignored her. Aunt Li was so angry that she snatched the wooden stick in Zhang Xiaochuan's hand and hit him hard, Zhang Xiaochuan closed his eyes and heard the wind, so he secretly covered his body with true qi. There was a "pop" sound, the wooden stick broke, and Aunt Li was taken aback, she didn't expect that she would use such a big force. There were just a few splashes in their eyes, and they usually estimated that they were scolded and rolled by her, so they shouted loudly. "Ouch, Tofu Shih Tzu has beaten people, everyone come and see, it's really ruthless. "No, that's motionless. "Didn't you beat people to death. Aunt Li heard them shouting, how could she not be in a hurry, and hurriedly reached out to probe Zhang Xiaochuan's snort, Zhang Xiaochuan deliberately closed her breath. Aunt Li didn't detect his breath, she was even more anxious, shook Zhang Xiaochuan a few times, and shouted loudly, "Hey, hey, you're okay!" Zhang Xiaochuan didn't move. "Tofu Shih Tzu has killed someone. The pimples shouted even louder. "Oh, how can there be, you little rabbits, don't shout, come down, my aunt will let you eat tofu for nothing. "Aunt Li, is this true?" asked the pranksters with bad intentions. "Seriously, my aunt must be the talker. "Those splashes didn't shout.

"Mom, what's wrong?" Li Xueyao heard the noise and came out of it. "Mom accidentally hit him with a wooden stick just now, and he lay still, will he die?" she saw that Zhang Xiaochuan was motionless, and she was shouted by those splashes, and she was also afraid. "I'll take a look. Li Xueyao leaned down, probed Zhang Xiaochuan's snort, and then pinched his middle a few times. Zhang Xiaochuan felt that her hands were slippery and warm, and remembered her beautiful appearance, thinking that she was still so kind, his heart moved, and he didn't want to be embarrassed by her, so he exhaled heavily. "It's okay, Mom, he must be sick. "Well, he's sick. Aunt Li also came to her senses, "Do you say?" she asked a few splashes flatteringly, and by the way, she threw a wink, and a few splashes understood, "Yes, yes, yes, he is sick." "Why don't you help your aunt carry him back to the house?" "Yes, yes, yes!" A few splashes responded, carried Zhang Xiaochuan in, put him on the couch and placed him, a few people went out, and Aunt Li hurriedly sent him out. "Aunt Li, don't forget what you said!" "Little Wang Ba Lamb, Aunt Li remembers!" Aunt Li scolded with a smile and walked back to the house.

"Mom, what's going on?" Li Xueyao asked her about what happened. "Alas, when I saw that he was asleep at the door, I felt bad luck, so I wanted to drive him away, but he ignored me, and I took his stick with my hand, and before I could use any force, the stick broke, which is really strange. "Mom, how can you beat someone? Besides, he's so old, he's quite pitiful. "Well, I'm unlucky, and I don't really want to fight, but I hope he's okay. "Don't worry Mom, rest and rest, he'll be fine." "Amitabha, I wish!"

Zhang Xiaochuan lay in their house for two days, sleeping during the day, sleeping at night, sleeping when he fell asleep, and pretending to sleep when he couldn't sleep. They fed him, and he cooperated, and he didn't want to be hungry all the time, it didn't taste good.

Li Xueyao wiped Zhang Xiaochuan's face and hands every day, Aunt Li didn't let her at first, Li Xueyao said, "This uncle is destined for us, and there is no old man in our family, maybe he has no relatives and no support, lonely and pitiful, let me take good care of him for a while, so maybe he will get better soon." When Aunt Li saw her say this, she stopped interfering, and secretly prayed that Zhang Xiaochuan would get better soon.

Li Xueyao scrubbed Zhang Xiaochuan every day, which made him a little unbearable, but whenever she held her hand, Zhang Xiaochuan had a strange feeling, and there was a desire in her heart, hoping that she could scrub herself every day.

A few days later, Li Xueyao was scrubbing Zhang Xiaochuan, and she suddenly shouted, "Mom, Mom! Come on!" Aunt Li heard her shouting in a hurry, and hurriedly ran into the house. "What's wrong? yelling!" "Look at his face! Aunt Li came to take a look and understood in an instant. I saw that his flesh skin was delicate, but there were a lot of things smeared on his face, deliberately covering his true face, and then looking at his hands, they were also fair and slender, the more she looked at it, the more she understood it, and said to Li Xueyao, "It's okay, he should wake up soon." "Will he really wake up soon?" "Really. Zhang Xiaochuan heard them say this, but he didn't know why.

The two of them retreated, and after a while, Zhang Xiaochuan heard footsteps and knew that Aunt Li was coming again, so he closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep. Aunt Li held his hand, Zhang Xiaochuan didn't know her intentions, and suddenly her middle finger hurt, and Zhang Xiaochuan sat up "poofed". It turned out that Aunt Li pricked his fingers with a needle, and ten fingers were connected to his heart, this sudden needle, Zhang Xiaochuan was defenseless, and naturally sat up in pain. Zhang Xiaochuan looked at her in a daze, and Aunt Li yelled at him, "Say, who are you, what are your intentions?" Zhang Xiaochuan thought of what she had just said and what she had done, and knew that she had been recognized, so he said to her, "Since you have seen through it, I will no longer hide it from you, Aunt Li, I am Zhang Xiaochuan." "Are you Zhang Xiaochuan?" Aunt Li was surprised, for many years her impression of him had been stuck in his teenage appearance, plus she had done something wrong back then, and she was even more surprised that he suddenly appeared in this way. She looked at Zhang Xiaochuan's face for a while, and felt that it seemed a little similar, so she immediately asked, "How did you become like this, how did you come here all these years?" "It's not thanks to Aunt Li, how good can you be when you look at me like this?" Zhang Xiaochuan said unhurriedly, his eyes made Aunt Li feel panicked. I don't know what he wanted when he came to the door like this, Aunt Li's brain was spinning fast. "Anyway, it's good that you can come back, you can take care of your body, what's the matter, let's talk about it later. Aunt Li said, and withdrew with a smile without waiting for Zhang Xiaochuan to reply.

In less than half an hour, six people came in in a hurry, two men in their forties with four men in their thirties, carrying instruments and chains in their hands. One of them, a bearded man in his forties, asked Zhang Xiaochuan, "Are you Zhang Xiaochuan?" Zhang Xiaochuan didn't know what they were looking for, so he nodded. The man continued, "I'm the Lizheng here," and then pointed to another man in his forties and said, "This is the elder of Hongo, we suspect that you have something to do with a public case, come with us!" After speaking, he waved his hand to the four people, and they stepped forward and couldn't help but say that they put the iron chain on Zhang Xiaochuan's body. How could Zhang Xiaochuan put them in his eyes, thinking that this must be Aunt Li's ghost, but to see what tricks they want to play, he didn't say much, stood up, and went out with them.

Aunt Li sent them out of the door in fear, and before going out, Zhang Xiaochuan made a grimace and said to her, "Aunt Li, I'll be back soon." "Mom, why are they arresting people?" shouted, just as Li Xueyao came back from outside, and after she suddenly asked, Aunt Li was so frightened that she shuddered. "He, he's probably a liar. She snorted and said, "How is it possible?" Li Xueyao didn't believe it.

After two days, there are many people buying tofu, and there are still many people basking in the sun on the street. Suddenly, the gong sound of "boring and boring" sounded, and two teams of officers and soldiers came from afar, and after a while, they came to the front, and everyone did not know what happened, and they did not know which official had arrived, and the villagers avoided one after another.

Everyone took refuge to the side, only to see two soldiers walking in front of the officers and soldiers, each holding a wooden sign with the words "quiet" and "avoidance" written on it, followed by the gong to open the way. In the middle of the two tall horses, immediately riding two people, a man in his thirties, dressed as a civil official, but also has an indescribable majesty. The other is in his twenties, wearing a square scarf, a white shirt, and soap boots. There were many soldiers in the back, carrying a lot of cages.

When the officers and soldiers arrived at the tofu factory, they didn't leave, but adjusted their formation, and the soldiers were lined up on both sides, and in the middle were two people on horses. Li Zheng and Qi Chang ran to the two of them, nodded and said, "Two adults, this is the tofu workshop of the Tofu Xi Shi family. The two of them pointed to Zhang Fang and said, "She is Li Zhang, who is known as 'Tofu Shih'." The man who looked like a civil official bowed his head slightly, and Li Zheng and the elder shouted at Zhang Fang in unison, "Li Zhang, hurry up and meet General Zhang and the magistrate!" Tofu Xi Shi saw that the officers and soldiers came to the door of her house, and she was already timid, and when she heard that she wanted to meet General Zhang and the magistrate, she was even more shocked, and she didn't know why the two officials wanted to see her. Zhang Fang stepped forward tremblingly, knelt down and kowtowed to the two of them, "People's daughter Li Zhang, kowtow to the two adults." "Li Zhang, you look up. "The voice of the man who looks like a civil official is not high, but the voice is majestic and irresistible. Zhang Fang slowly raised her head, and the magistrate was looking at herself with a smile, seeing that her heart was furious, and she couldn't help but lower her head.

"Alright, you get up!" the magistrate ordered. "Yes!" Zhang Fang stood up and stood aside with low eyebrows. "Li Zhang, don't you ask the two adults to speak inside. Li Zheng and the elder urged. "Yes, yes," Zhang Fang responded tremblingly. "Two adults, please. Someone had already come, put a stool, and helped them get off the horse. Li Zheng and the elder said flatteringly, "Two adults, please!" Zhixian and the young general smiled at each other and walked into the courtyard together. At this time, Li Dachun and Li Xueyao also reacted, and hurriedly walked in with Zhang Fang.

Entering the main hall, everyone sat around the two officials. Zhang Fang brought Li Dachun and Li Xueyao to bow again. At this time, the young general stood up, he stepped forward and said, "Uncle Li, Aunt Li, please get up." And he lifted them up one by one. Zhang Fang has been looking at him very familiarly, and his voice is also very familiar, but she didn't expect it to be Zhang Xiaochuan, she was half happy and half sad in her heart. Li Dachun was covered by clouds and mountains, confused, and looked at Zhang Xiaochuan blankly. "Uncle Li, I'm Zhang Xiaochuan!" "You're Xiaochuan! It's so good! It's so good! You've grown so big and become a general." Li Dachun revealed his true feelings, and couldn't help but hold Zhang Xiaochuan's hand. "Uncle Li, all these years have been okay!" "Everything is fine with us!" Li Dachun is not good at talking, and he knows that the less he talks, the less he will make mistakes.

"Well, I've thought about you a lot over the years. Zhang Xiaochuan looked at Zhang Fang, and her heart suddenly jumped wildly. "This is Xue Yao's sister, right?" Zhang Xiaochuan asked Li Dachun and Zhang Fang with a smile. "Yes. The two responded, "Xue Yao, this is your brother Xiaochuan, come and see it." Zhang Fang hurriedly introduced. "Brother Xiaochuan. Li Xueyao called out cordially. "Sister Xueyao is good!" "Brother Xiaochuan is good!" Li Xueyao responded generously. Since Zhang Xiaochuan appeared, Li Xueyao was attracted by his demeanor, and saw that he was like a crown of jade, handsome and chic, with a heroic spirit in his gestures. Now I know that he is very close to his own family, and he feels more cordial, but Li Xueyao also has a little doubt in her heart, she always feels that this brother is familiar, and she feels as if she has heard his voice somewhere.

"Please wait a moment, and we'll serve tea to you right away. Zhang Fang said to the two of them, Zhang Xiaochuan nodded to them, and smiled as he watched the family of three retreat.

Out of the hall, Li Zheng was waiting at the door, Zhang Fang walked up to him and said, "Lord Li Zheng, please take a step to speak." "It was originally Qingshui Creek, and I was usually quite familiar with it, and when I saw her say this, I walked with her to a corner. Zhang Fang lowered her voice and asked Li Zheng, "Lord Li Zheng, is that person really Zhang Xiaochuan, isn't he a thief, why did he become a general?" When Li Zheng heard her ask such words, he couldn't help but be anxious and hurriedly silenced her. "Li Zhang, don't talk nonsense like this, the magistrate was sent down by the imperial court, and he is well-informed, besides, many people have seen the general's seal. Zhang Fang heard Li Zheng say this, no longer doubted, and was busy making tea.
