Chapter 48: Bodyguards
Du Shenfei and the calf did not return to the Tiger and Wolf Valley, but came to the gate of the Zhuangyuan of the Great Ancestor Hall on Kaifusi Street, and saw Zeng Yiduo standing in the cold wind, looking into the distance. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Du Shenfei and the calf jumped off the horse first and shouted: "Brother Yiduo, it's freezing, what are you doing standing here?"
Zeng Yi saw Du Shenfei and Niu Lixian a lot, and his eyes immediately showed a happy look, and said, "Brother Du, I have worked so hard to find you! ”
When Du Shenfei heard this, he was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter with my brother looking for me?"
Zeng Yiduo ran over and said, "Big brother, for the sake of the silver, you come in with me and follow me to see my father!"
Du Shenfei frowned and said, "Brother, hasn't anyone ever sent silver?"
Zeng Yiduo said: "The silver was sent." ”
Du Shenfei listened and finally put his mind at ease. The two of them followed into the courtyard, and when they came to the inner hall, they saw the great-ancestor hall sitting there with a frowning brow, and they were not happy. Seeing Du Shenfei and the calf coming first, Zengzu Hall hurriedly stood up and said, "Xiao Du, Xiao Niu, where have you been these days? I looked for you everywhere, but I didn't find you." ”
Du Shenfei was a little surprised, and asked, "When the staff is looking for me, there must be something important, but I don't know what it is?"
Zeng Zudian sighed and said: "It's just that after the Jin soldiers attacked the city, they have now retreated, resulting in the rout of the army scattering, and the rogues swarming, and the hills and mounds outside the city are all thieves." I wanted to ask someone to go to other places to buy bedding and cotton clothes and other things to protect from the cold, but there was no one who could reassure me to escort them. I've heard that the foot sword technique is wonderful and the martial arts are proficient. I would like to ask Xiao Du and Xiao Niu to deign to lead one or two hundred men and horses, push dozens of taels of carts, and escort twenty or thirty thousand taels of silver on my behalf to buy quilts and clothes to help the people in the city who lack clothes and quilts to survive the winter. I wonder what you two think?"
Du Shenfei said: "The staff is compassionate and considerate of the people in the city, there is nothing I am unwilling to do?
Zeng Zudian said: "Two little brothers, Duolao! The day before yesterday, someone had already sent it back, and more than a dozen people came with silver, only saying that you asked them to send it." When I asked them where you were, they wouldn't tell them, saying that they didn't know where you were, and they left. That's why I'm looking for you everywhere. ”
Du Shenfei thought for a while and said, "I see! Outside the staff, there is only one thing, our brother has not made much of a deal, and we don't know how much these items are worth? ”
Seeing that Du Shen was not willing to contribute, the great-ancestor palace was happy, and said: "You don't have to worry about this, I have arranged a competent person to be responsible for the procurement of a thing, this person is one of my supervisors, called Wang Deba, is a smart and clever person, who used to trade with me many times in the south, negotiate the price of the township, live on the route, where to buy? As long as the two of you are responsible for safety along the way, avoid accidents along the way. ”
Du Shenfei said: "In this case, where do we go to purchase these clothes and bedding?"
Great-Ancestor Hall groaned slightly, and said: "Now it is only because there are Yang Mi, Huang Cheng, Xia Cheng, Zhou Lun and others in the north, occupying the area of Dongting Lake and forming a village according to danger, land and water warfare, and repeatedly frustrating officers and soldiers. However, Prime Minister Zhang Daren has been dispatched in Hunan, Yue's army has gone to suppress it, and there are Jin soldiers, so he can't go north. Although there were rebels such as Cao Cheng and Zhang Yong in the south, they had been defeated by the Yuejia army, and Cao Cheng had surrendered to the Pingkou general Han Shizhong. You can go south, as far as Guangnan East Road, Guangzhou City to purchase, there is a rich and prosperous place, a large port for trade with foreigners, everything is complete, there are many clothing shops, easy to procure. It's just that the mountains and rivers are far away, and it's not easy to get out. ”
Du Shenfei said: "There is a kindness outside the staff, and countless resources are consumed. The two of us will do our best with all our hearts. ”
Great-Ancestor Hall was overjoyed and said: "Since I have been promised by the two little brothers, if the two of you are not busy with other things, I will prepare everything tomorrow and leave the morning after tomorrow, how about it?"
Du Shenfei said: "Okay! Since this is the case, rest assured." Then the two of us brothers will be here the next morning. I went back to see my mother today, and I knew the situation with her, so as not to worry about it at home. ”
Great-ancestor said: "What you said is! The filial son is very respectful. What two good children with filial piety. ”
The Great Ancestor Hall groaned slightly, and said to Du Shenfei and the calf first: "Xiao Du, Xiao Niu, you two wait here for a while, I'll come when I go in." ”
As soon as the Great Ancestor Hall finished speaking, he went inside. After a while, I saw the Great Ancestor Hall coming out with many things in both hands.
Zeng Zudian pointed to a pack and said, "Two little brothers, these are some of the supplements that I operate in my shop. This is cordyceps, which has the effect of nourishing the lungs and kidneys, stopping bleeding and reducing phlegm. He pointed to another package and said, "This is the fairy grass Ganoderma lucidum, which has the effect of replenishing qi and calming the nerves, relieving cough and asthma." He pointed to the rest of the bags and introduced: "This is ginseng, which nourishes the spleen and lungs, calms the nerve......s and replenishes the yuan;
Du Shenfei was surprised: "I don't know what the use of taking these many precious supplements is outside?"
Great-Ancestor Hall said: "These items, please take these items home with the two little brothers and give them to Lingtang." A little bit of a small salute, a little respect. ”
Du Shenfei was taken aback and said: "Outside the staff, so many precious medicinal materials are worth a thousand gold. The two of us will never dare to accept it, lest the old lady be suspicious. ”
The calf first said, "Yes, then the old lady suspects that we have been robbed and will be spanked." ”
Great-Ancestor Hall said: "In this case, I will write a note to prove it." ”
After saying that, he walked to the table again, wrote a simple note, stamped the letter, and wrapped it in his bag.
Du Shen couldn't shirk it, so he had to ask the calf to mention it first, and bought a lot of daily necessities in the city and returned to the Tiger Wolf Valley.
Shi Luoyi was really worried, and kept walking around the door of her house, looking in the direction of Tanzhou City for a while, and then looking at the river. Du Shenfei and the calf saw it from a distance first.
Shi Luoyi saw Du Shenfei and the calf come back from the stone cave by the Laodao River first, stomped his feet, wiped his tears, and cried: "You two good things, you have been out for so long, and you won't come back." I heard from the Taoist chief and Mr. said that the golden soldiers came to attack the city, killed people and set fires, and the city was in chaos. I have been worried at home every day, and I have not closed my eyes for a moment for so many days, and I don't know what has happened to you. I asked the chief to come out to look for you, but I couldn't find anyone. I'm really dying, and I can't get out. ”
Shi Luoyi cried and scolded at the same time. Du Shenfei and Niu Xian were also deeply moved, they threw everything in their hands on the ground, tears flowed together, both came over and knelt on the ground, Du Shenfei said with tears: "Mother, the child is not filial, let the mother worry." Kid should fight!"
Shi Luoyi was still crying, surprised and happy in her heart, and her thin body trembled.
The calf saw it first, and hurriedly picked up a branch from the side, handed it to Shi Luoyi, and said: "Old lady, my brothers and I worried about my mother, and cried again, I would rather be spanked three hundred times, so that my mother can vent her anger, and we promise that we will not hide from beating my buttocks." After speaking, he put his black face on the ground, crossed the cross, and lay on the ground. Du Shenfei saw it and also lay on the ground.
Shi Luoyi really took the branch, slapped each of them a few times on the buttocks, and said, "Don't tell me when you go out, let me be scared for so long." ”
The calf screamed "wow" first, waking up Wuwuzi and Xie Youlong, and came to see, seeing that Du Shenfei and the calf were fine, the two of them were also very happy.
Wuwuzi hurriedly persuaded Shi Luoyi and said, "It's okay if people come back, but don't break them." He looked at Du Shenfei and the calf and said, "You two, you must inform your mother next time you go out, so that she will not worry about it all the time and worry about it." ”
This is the first time Shi Luoyi has beaten the two.
This is family affection.
Therefore, home is a place where we are always thinking about and thinking about coming back even if we go to the end of the world, because there is a strong love of parents.
Where there are parents, it is home.
This Tiger Wolf Valley is the hometown of Du Shenfei and Niu Lixian.
Wu Wuzi asked, "Little goldfish, calf, where have you been?" I have looked for you two or three times, and I have walked all over the city, but I have not seen your figure. ”
Du Shenfei said: "The two eldest brothers and the old lady of Shangqi, we are indeed not in the city these days. And he recounted all that he had seen and heard in the past few days.
Wu Wuzi and Xie Youlong were surprised to hear so many interesting stories.
Shi Luoyi saw that Du Shenfei and the calf were fine first, and jumped back alive, and made so many friends, and helped Zeng Yuanwai do good deeds, just like Daigo empowerment and nectar to nourish his heart, wiped away his tears and tied an apron to the kitchen, and secretly scolded Zhang Zhenfei and Liu Yeping, the two harmful spirits, in his heart.
That night, Shi Luo made seven or eight dishes with meat and vegetarian red, red, green and green, and the five people ate and drank together, with infinite joy.
Du Shenfei said all about the great-ancestral palace going to Guangzhou to purchase disaster relief materials.
Shi Luo inevitably had to give a thousand instructions.
