Chapter 188: Poor and lowly friends must not be forgotten
After three rooster cries, the east is faint, and the morning light is open. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Tang Yu got up, rubbed his eyes, and looked around, the bed of Lin Fanghe on the opposite side was empty, and the figure had long since disappeared.
"Woke up so early. He muttered, got out of bed, and walked out of the house.
Lidong was washing vegetables under the porch at this time.
Seeing him go out, he nodded and saluted: "It was wind and rain last night, did you sleep well?" Do you feel cold?" Tang Yu moved his wrists, waist and legs, and said, "It's not cold, it's just that I slept on a wooden bed all night, and the bones in my body are sore and itchy......"
Lidong smiled and said, "You are big people, and your bodies are delicate. This ordinary person has been sleeping on wooden and bamboo beds for many years, and I haven't heard of anyone who is uncomfortable?"
"The bed is fine, the key room is too damp. Tang Yu was still complaining, "This place is far worse than Delicious Juke." ”
At the mention of Delicious House, Lidong's expression was a little lost.
There was a faint sadness on his face.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned those sad things. Tang Yu made amends.
Lidong shook his head: "It's okay, it's all over anyway." ”
"What did Shopkeeper Xiao say, have you discussed it?" Tang Yu hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Does your father agree to go with us?"
He said that he hadn't thought about it yet, after all, he had lived here for decades and was reluctant to leave for a while. Lidong sighed slightly.
"Where is the end of the world not home?"
"That being said, but whose head is this matter resting on, you have to think about it. ”
"That's it. But I think the capital is more suitable for you. ”
"That's just what you think. Lidong lowered his head and smiled lightly. "It doesn't necessarily apply to our father and daughter. ”
Tang Yu also sighed: "Lord Lin has good intentions and really wants to help you." It's a bit of a pity to categorically refuse like this.
"It's a pity, we didn't say we wouldn't go. ”
"Then you just say that you can't go, why bother beating around the bush like this?" Tang Yu was very happy when he heard it, "You scared me......"
Lidong washed the vegetables and splashed the water in the basin: "But my father didn't say that he had to go to ......"
Tang Yu was stunned: "Okay, this has changed again!"
"You're busy, don't worry about eating radishes here. Lidong put the washed vegetables into the basket and said, "Go and wash your face, a dignified official servant." Covered in straw and dusty, he lives like a flower child. ”
Carrying the food back to the house.
Tang Yu lost his mind for a while, and he didn't figure out what Lidong meant. Then he turned and walked out the door. In the stone jar under the steps of the ancestral hall, it was filled with rainwater.
He held the water in his hand, washed his face indiscriminately, and when he was combing his hair, he turned his head and saw Lin Fanghe turning back from outside.
There are water droplets hanging from the hat.
The soles of the two official boots were covered with yellow mud.
Tang Yu nodded: "Morning." ”
Lin Fanghe smiled and said, "When I got up in the morning, I went out for a walk. Habits that have been cultivated over the years are also habits that are difficult to change......"
"Why didn't you call me?" Tang Yu was a little embarrassed to snooze.
Lin Fanghe said: "Young people sleep a lot, I'll let you sleep a little longer." ”
Tang Yu tidied up his clothes and asked, "My lord, let's leave Huangnipo today?"
"All the evidence, all the answers, have evaporated. There is no point in staying here any longer. The corners of Lin Fanghe's mouth twitched, and his expression was gloomy, perhaps he remembered the companion he had been close to a few days ago.
"Zhu Yichen's bribery to the officials and soldiers is settled. Do you still allow General Liang to reverse black and white and cover the sky with one hand?" Tang Yu was still unwilling.
Lin Fanghe's eyebrows twitched, and he said, "The bones have turned to ashes, and all the clues have been artificially cut off. There is no evidence, even if we want to check, where to start. ”
"The lost account was a key. ”
"But it was taken away by that Yuping, and its whereabouts are unknown. Besides, even if the account books appear, it will not be easy to bring down General Liang based on this alone. ”
"Alas. Tang Yu was silent.
"Don't be discouraged...... Lin Fanghe patted him on the shoulder and said slowly, "It's still the same sentence, Skynet is magnificent, negligent but not leaky." As long as a criminal does not stop doing evil and commits many injustices, sooner or later he will fall into the legal net. ”
Tang Yu bowed: "I believe it." ”
"Let's go in and eat. ”
The two of them walked into the hospital together.
Breakfast was relatively simple, Lidong cooked some porridge, mixed pickles, and stewed radish tofu. Putting it on the table, he said apologetically: "There is a lack of oil and salt, and the condiments are not complete, so you can make do with it." ”
Lin Fanghe drank porridge in a big gulp, ate pickles, and said, "Not bad, not bad." ”
Seeing that Shopkeeper Xiao didn't come to dinner, he asked with concern, "Is there anything wrong with Boss Xiao?"
"It's fine, it's just an attack on the wound, and the pain is unbearable. Lidong shook his head, and there was worry in his eyes that couldn't be hidden: "He asked me to tell the two of you that you don't have to wait for him, just hurry after eating." ”
Tang Yu's face changed, and he asked in surprise, "Aren't you going with us?"
"My father is so hurt that he can't even straighten his waist now, how can he ride a horse?" there was a hint of helplessness on the corner of Lidong's mouth.
Lin Fanghe said: "We can hire a car for him, and it doesn't hurt to walk slowly." ”
"Wouldn't this delay the trip of the two of them? ”
Lidong lowered his eyes and said softly: "Although Daddy has a soft temper, he has always been strong and has never been willing to drag others down. ”
Tang Yu was so anxious: "Then what should I do?"
"My dad said he would come back to you after he recovered from his injuries and recovered. ”
"That's fine. Lin Fanghe paused and said, "We are in Chuzhou, and we may have to stay for a while." In the future, if your father is well from his illness, if he goes, he can go to the old store in Yuelai in the west of the city......"
He took out a letter from his bosom and placed it on the table: "Whether we are here or not, as long as you give this letter to the grocery store owner, he will help you." ”
"I see. Lidong put away the letter with dignity.
"You tell Boss Xiao to recuperate with peace of mind, and when we leave in a while, we won't bother him. Lin Fanghe advised.
Lidong said: "I would like to express my gratitude on behalf of my father. ”
The two of them quickly finished eating, packed their bags, and prepared to hit the road.
Lin Fanghe stretched out his hand, pressed it on Tang Yu's shoulder, and signaled.
Tang Yu understood in his heart, reached out and took out a piece of silver from his waist pocket, and checked it, about seventy or eighty taels. Putting it on the table, he said to Li Dong: "This, you have to accept it......"
Lidong shirked: "Stay in a restaurant to eat on this road, where you don't need money." How can I repay your money?"
Lin Fanghe comforted: "Don't think too much -- your father is injured, so there will be more places to ask the doctor to grab medicine and use money in the future? I just hope that his body will recover as soon as possible, and he will be as strong as ever, stronger than anything else!"
Lidong didn't say anything more, and sent the two people out of the yard until the intersection.
Lin Fanghe and Tang Yu turned the horse's head, clamped the horse's belly between their legs, and the sound of hooves was good, and they walked away. (To be continued.) )
