Chapter 111: The remote town is restored
A quiet and remote town, with the arrival of a few young people, it became lively for a while.
To be more precise, it was nine young men with extraordinary bearing who came to this remote town with the coffin of the stone ox.
In the manor of a bloated rich man, Wang Ruoli and the others finally met Shi Niu's younger brother, Shi Hu, a sturdy young man who was only fourteen years old. When Shi Hu heard the news and rushed to see his brother's coffin, his face instantly fell, and the whole person stood silently like a log, his lips moved, but he couldn't say a word for a long time.
The bloated rich man squinted his small eyes, and when he saw Wang Ruoli and a few people in brocade clothes, he didn't dare to slack off at all, and hurriedly and politely invited them into the inner hall to treat them as guests.
"Brother Shi Niu......" A mournful woman's voice came from behind the curtain in the distance.
A woman with a sad face lifted the curtain and ran to the front of the hall in a staggered step, crying and crying out in mourning.
At a glance at the coffin placed under the hall, the sad woman paused, as if she was fixed there, and looked at the coffin blankly, and the tears in her eyes, like beads with broken threads, flowed straight out.
The sad woman suddenly rushed to the dam like a torrent, and threw herself on the coffin a few times, crying out: "Brother Shi Niu...... You don't lie down...... You promised Xiaohua...... Will definitely come back and marry me...... How can you leave like this......" The cry was full of sadness and pain.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have worked hard all the way to bring Shi Niu's coffin back to the township, and thank you for Shi Hu Boy first. The bloated rich man stepped forward and thanked him kindly.
"You're welcome!" "It's a matter of duty!" Wang Ruoli and the others replied with their fists clasped together.
"We have prepared some light wine and side dishes, and I also invite you to sit down and wash the dust along the road. "The bloated rich man sincerely invited.
"No need. Wang Ruoli was not interested, "We have already chartered the inn in the town, and we will stay in the town for a few days." ”
"It's a presumptuousness. When the bloated rich man heard this, his eyes rolled, and he said with some pity.
"It's okay!" Wang Ruoli took out a silver ticket of one thousand taels, and continued, "This is one thousand taels of silver, the funeral of the Shiniu brothers, and I have to trouble Your Excellency to help with it." ”
"Childe is outside. The bloated rich man hurriedly accepted the silver ticket and said respectfully, "This is what should have been done in the future." ”
"Give me back my Brother Shi Niu! Brother Shi Niu will not die!" After a period of sadness, the sad woman rushed over, stopped Wang Ruoli and a few others, and asked one by one in a sad voice, "How did Brother Shi Niu die? How did Brother Shi Niu die? Why did ......?"
"Shi Niu, he ......" Feng Xiaoxia wanted to say, but his throat was choked and he couldn't speak.
"Someone's coming!" The bloated rich man on the side hurriedly called people, "Mother Liu, sister-in-law Li, Miss is too sad, take Miss down quickly, and settle down." ”
"Yes!" several servant women hurried in and brought some sad women who were out of control of grief into the backyard.
"Alas!" Wang Ruoli sighed softly, walked to Shi Hu, who had been silent, took a piece of jade pendant from his waist, and said in a kind voice, "You are Shi Niu's younger brother, that is, the younger brother of our brothers, I know, it's a little late to say anything at this time, if you have any difficulties or needs in the future, you can take this jade pendant and go to the red maple Xiaozhu in Luoshui Town, Jingyang City to find me, I am Wang Ruoli of the Wang family." ”
As he spoke, Wang Ruoli stuffed the jade pendant into Shi Hu's hand and walked away a little gloomily.
The bloated rich man politely sent Wang Ruoli to the door of the mansion all the way, and stood at the door to watch them leave, always with a kind smile on his face.
A woman behind her couldn't help but sneer: "Master, are we really going to hold a funeral for Shi Niu?"
"Of course, he's no longer the son of a man. The bloated rich man's face showed a little smugness, "Didn't the leading son just now say that he had to bother to deal with it." ”
"It's just a group of young boys, the old man is too polite, right?" the woman was a little unimpressed.
"What do you know about a woman!" the bloated rich man couldn't help but look disgusted, "Didn't you listen to him, he is the young master of the Wang family." ”
"In Jingxiang Kingdom, there are more people with the surname Wang. The woman could not help arguing.
"But his young master surnamed Wang is not ordinary. The bloated rich man looked calculating, "The Wang family of the three major families of Jingxiang Kingdom, the young master of this generation, happens to be the generation of the word 'if'. ”
"Ahh
"So, you have long hair and short knowledge. The bloated rich man walked back with satisfaction, "I don't know what kind of luck Shi Niu had in his last life, and he actually made friends with such a group of rich and noble sons, except for the young master of the Wang family who is the leader, you look at the clothes and shoes of other young people, each of them is not an ordinary person." ”
That night, surprisingly, two more people came to this quiet town, one was Fang Xiaomu, who came to hear the wind, and the other was Feng Xiaoxian, Feng Xiaoxia's sister.
"Xiaomu, why are you here?" Wang Ruoli couldn't help but ask when he saw Fang Xiaomu coming, with only Pei Qiong with him.
"I heard the news and was worried about you, so I wanted to come over and talk to you and relieve my boredom. Fang Xiaomu looked at Wang Ruoli with some concern.
"I'm fine. Wang Ruoli's expression was a little gloomy.
"There will be life and death, and people always have to go through life and death. Fang Xiaomu held Wang Ruoli's hand, and there seemed to be reminiscence on his face, "Regardless of the dignity or the ordinary Li Min, this is the reality." ”
"I understand. Wang Ruoli sighed, "What I am thinking about is not that sadness, but a powerless responsibility." ”
"If my brother becomes a superior in the future, he will have more responsibilities. Fang Xiaomu hoped to be authentic.
"Don't worry, I can handle it. Wang Ruoli was full of confidence.
"Hmm......" Fang Xiaomu looked at Wang Ruoli, as if his thoughts were flying.
Moonlight is like silver.
Fang Xiaomu and Feng Xiaoxian, the two girls, actually walked on the corridor together, chatting like old friends.
"Sister Xiaomu, it seems that you have a lot of hostility towards me?" Feng Xiaoxian raised her eyebrows slightly, a little puzzled.
"Who is your sister!" Fang Xiaomu looked unhappy, "Don't think I don't know, what kind of crooked idea you have in your heart when you come here." ”
"Miss Fang, are you thinking too much. Feng Xiaoxian said with a light face, "I came here purely to visit my younger brother. ”
"It's better!" Fang Xiaomu pouted, "I'm afraid that some people are drunkards who don't mean to drink." ”
"There are also people who cherish themselves. Feng Xiaoxian covered her mouth and smiled, "I like to think of crows as phoenixes, but in my eyes, they are sparrows." ”
"You ......" Fang Xiaomu was annoyed, then snorted lightly and teased, "I heard that Mingfeng Valley and the Lin family of Lingling City dissolved their marriage last month, and the two families broke up unhappily. ”
"Why should Miss Fang worry about things that are not related to the wind and horses?" Feng Xiaoxian couldn't help but say slightly angrily, "Even if you are a little curious, what does it matter." ”
"Curious, isn't that the beginning of the fall!" Fang Xiaomu sneered at the corner of his mouth.
"Miss Fang can't help but worry too far. Feng Xiaoxian didn't admit it, "You are worrying about the sky." ”
"Hmph, whether I'm worrying about the sky or not, you know best in your own heart. Fang Xiaomu was dissatisfied.
"Hehe, Miss Fang is really worried. Feng Xiaoxian chuckled softly.
