Chapter 53 Silver Bell
Zhong Yuqing's words were really disrespectful, and the expressions of Sheng Dian and Sheng Lei suddenly darkened.
Zhong Yuqing, however, didn't take it seriously. His eyes looked at him quietly, as if there were no waves in an ancient well.
But Sheng Dian suddenly smiled and said: "The young master has an idea, so we, the subordinates, shouldn't interfere too much."
Sheng Dian secretly made a calculation in his heart: He thought that this young man must be an ignorant loser because he was poor, but when he saw a real person, he seemed extraordinary... Let's stabilize him first and earn some good face.
Whether we want to stand in line to support him will be discussed later.
Zhong Yuqing smiled and nodded, "Thank you for your help."
Sheng Dian and the others gave Zhong Yuqing half a day to pack their bags. Zhong Yuqing took care of things in his hut, Sheng Dian stayed outside, and Sheng Lei went to the street to prepare his horse.
Zhou Xiaodu and Zhima were wandering around Zhong Yuqing's house. Zhou Xiaodu sat on the small bench and said with a smile: "It's fate that we are going to Guangling. It just so happens that I have admired the famous Sheng family in the world for a long time. I wonder if I can get involved with you.
Guang, go to Sheng's house twice?"
Zhong Yuqing folded two pieces of clothes without even raising his head, and said softly: "I just want to go to Yuhang. I won't go to Guangling."
"Oh?" Zhou Xiaodu glanced at the hanging man outside the door and asked Zhong Yuqing, "Did you lie to them?"
"Yes." Zhong Yuqing nodded and said frankly, "I just want to take the opportunity to visit Miss Chunian. I will leave after watching it. It is impossible for me to go to the Sheng family. Look at their vows, how could you know
Isn't there a hole dug ahead for me to jump into?"
Zhima asked curiously: "But they were sent by your biological father to take you back. You don't believe them?"
"My biological father? The man who almost killed me?" Zhong Yuqing sneered, "Even if he sincerely repented and wanted to make up for me, his original wife would not let me go. It was that woman who sent the killer in the first place.
, chased our mother and son for several months, and my mother was seriously injured as a result. Before she could recover, she had to work to make a living. Later, her health deteriorated year by year, and she died when I was eight years old."
Zhima showed a look of surprise, "What did your mother do to make them so vicious?"
A layer of sadness appeared on Zhong Yuqing's face. He looked around and looked at the small house with traces of his mother in front of him. "She didn't do anything. She just met the man she liked, got married to him, and gave birth to a child for him. She thought that the rest of her life would be hers."
There is something to rely on...
"But not long after the child was born, someone told her that her husband was actually someone else's husband and the father of another child, and her own child was actually an adulterer who could not stand up to the stage. What she thought was a family
Three mouths, in the eyes of others, are just shameless jokes.
"That man's first wife, Mrs. Zhao, was of prominent family background, had a tough personality, and was henpecked. She gave up on my mother on the spot and kicked us out of the house. My mother had no relatives or money at that time and could not support a child at all.
, so she accepted her defeat, held her newborn son in her arms, kowtowed at the door of Sheng's house, and begged them for a way to survive.
"As long as they can give her a sum of money, she can take her son far away and never set foot in Guangling again. She is even willing to make her a slave. It's ridiculous that she is naive and thinks that the child is innocent. They don't
The attack was too cruel, but Mrs. Zhao felt that she was deliberately provoking by begging at the door, so she became angry.
"That man listened to Ms. Zhao and wanted to throw me to death in front of my mother. She snatched the child back and wanted to find another way out, but she was assassinated by the killers who chased her. Those killers were Ms. Zhao.
Sent...
"It seems like she didn't do anything, but she became a sinner who had to die." Zhong Yuqing said in a cold tone, "It was obvious that the culprit was the man who was greedy for beauty, but he just got away in time, and then he went back to being aloof.
A great hero of his generation, he is known throughout the world as the "Hanzhang Sword Lord" and everyone praises him for his gentlemanly demeanor.
"As for the mother and son, from being hunted to fleeing to a foreign land, they moved around and never saw him again for fifteen years. Before my mother died, I repeatedly told me that if I see the Sheng family again one day, there is no need to fight with the Sheng family because of resentment.
You have to be entangled, but you must be careful again and again and don't be deceived and framed like her."
Zhou Xiaodu shook his head, "Sure enough, most of the so-called gentlemen sought after by the world are dressed like beasts."
Zhima sighed and said: "Confucius said, clever words and charming words are the most benevolent. The more people lack something, the more they show off. The more they show off, the more unbridled they become. Therefore, there are many people who deceive the world and steal their fame."
Zhou Xiaodu suddenly asked Zhong Yuqing, "When you left Guangling, did you still fail to remember things?"
"Yes, I was still fashionable when I was a baby, and I never went back. These things were all told to me by my mother... Why do you say this?"
Zhou Xiaodu smiled and said, "It's okay, I just want to ask you something. If you don't know, forget it."
Zhong Yuqing knows very little about the Sheng family, and she doesn't even want to go to Guangling. So what's the point of the mission requiring her to protect Zhong Yuqing?
She turned around and said: "Whether you want to go to Guangling or Yuhang, let's go on the road together. There are many people and it's lively. I like the excitement the most."
Zhong Yuqing felt that Zhou Xiaodu had no bad intentions, so he did not refuse and said: "It's up to you."
Zhou Xiaodu hurriedly took Xiao Zhizhi back to make preparations. Before leaving, he still felt a little uneasy after thinking about it. He turned his back, tinkered for a while, and took out a bell.
She handed the small silver bell to Zhong Yuqing, "If you are in danger, you can ring this bell. I have received the response and can rush to rescue you... Of course, the premise is that I am not far away.
You can hold your own."
Zhong Yuqing took it suspiciously, "So magical?"
"Whether it works or not, you will know after you use it." Zhou Xiaodu was too lazy to explain to him.
Although Zhong Yuqing didn't quite believe it, he put the little bell away.
Zhima and Zhou Xiaodu went out and asked curiously: "Is that bell really useful?"
"Why should I give it to him if it's useless? To entertain children?" Zhou Xiaodu said.
"Then why do you feel something when it rings?"
Zhou Xiaodu replied: "Do you remember the pair of little bugs I showed you in the secret passage of the Han family?"
"Remember, red bugs are very sensitive." Later, he helped them find the exit.
"They are a couple and can sense each other. One of them was locked in the bell by me just now. As long as the bell is rang, the insect will be dizzy, vomiting and diarrhea, and has to scream.
Help, then I must rush to rescue it, can you help me lead the way?" Zhou Xiaodu said.
Zhima couldn't help but sigh: "Tsk, tsk, this is really something you can do!"
In other words, do nothing.
Zhou Xiaodu walked on the street with his hands behind his back, and said calmly: "These bugs have been with me for a long time. Every time I get bored, I take them out and play with them. I play with them in different ways and find many uses..."
Zhima shed a handful of bitter tears for Er Chong, and suddenly realized, "Then you just gave one of them to that Zhong Yuqing?"
Zhou Xiaodu asked: "What's the problem?"
"Why don't I get this treatment? I might also be in danger!"
Zhou Xiaodu rolled his eyes, "You hang out under my nose every day. Is there any danger that requires me to rush to rescue you?"
"Well...but I also want..."
"Okay, wait until Xiao Zhong plays with the leftovers and I will recycle them and give them to you."
"You're going too far!" he said jumping to his feet.
Zhou Xiaodu pinched his ears and said disgustedly: "You are so annoying today with your chattering. If you keep talking too much, you won't be able to eat for a while."
