The word "coincidence" does exist in life. As the predecessors said, "There are no coincidences in life."
After dinner, we wandered around Wenzhou City, and when we returned to the inn, we met Huang San and three others at the door. Although Wenzhou Prefecture in the Song Dynasty was not as large as Wenzhou City in later generations, there were several people in its jurisdiction.
There were ten inns, but we happened to stay in the same inn.
What else can this be considered a coincidence?
We hid in a corner outside the door of the inn and heard the eldest of the three saying: "Xiaosi, you are more dexterous than Huang San. Go to the Huang family cloth shop in Wenzhou and ask your second uncle how he came from Songjiang Mansion, Huating County (today's
When will the ship heading south from Shanghai arrive in Wenzhou? And ask him to unblock the Wenzhou Shipping Department and board the ship to search. The bitch did not bring his identity certificate when he fled, so the government has every reason to arrest him."
"Boss, don't worry, I'll be there right away."
"Well, this is a token of the clan leader. Be careful on the road. We will wait for you at the inn. Go and come back quickly."
When Wen Zhang saw Huang Xiaosi leaving, he took the initiative to invite him and said, "Sir, let me follow him."
Although Wen Zhang was not as young as Wen Zhang (twenty years old), his martial arts skills were extraordinary and he could easily deal with a few petty thieves. I said casually: "Okay, go ahead and find out the whole story. Don't take action rashly."
Fang Ling immediately warned: "Xiao Wenzhang, remember the young master's instructions, never eat alone."
"I know, Fang Nuxia, I will leave it to your pleasure."
Yuan Ji smiled and said, "Go quickly."
I also smiled and said, "She is really my savage sister."
"Brother, what are you talking about? Who is being savage?" Fang Ling said coyly.
I saw Fang Ling acting like a little girl for a rare moment, graceful and shy, and I couldn't help but feel swayed. At this time, Fang Ling looked exactly like Le Lingshan, not only in appearance, but also in demeanor.
"Ah? You didn't say anything."
After a quick meeting in the small town at noon, Yuan Ji and others had already seen that, except for the eldest brother's somewhat sparse martial arts skills, the other two were ordinary people and could not possibly pose the slightest threat to Wen Zhang.
"Brother, let's go back to the house first."
"Well, let's go back and take a hot shower to cool off."
Huang Xiaosi walked through several streets and soon arrived at an independent courtyard not far from the pier.
Knocking on the door, Huang Xiaosi said to the person who opened the door: "Xiao Si from the Huang family in Wunijing Town wants to see the shopkeeper."
The man who opened the door nodded and said, "It turns out it's my family. Please wait a moment and I'll notify my shopkeeper immediately."
After a few breaths, the man who opened the door led a middle-aged man in blue robes to the door and said to Huang Xiaosi: "Xiaosi, this is Mr. Huang, our big shopkeeper."
Xiaosi saluted, took out an object from his arms and said, "Is it the second uncle? This is the patriarch's token."
The middle-aged man took the token, looked at it and gave it to Xiaosi: "That's right, Xiaosi, come into the room and talk."
Wen Zhang came to the courtyard, and in the dim light, he saw the four characters "Huang's Clothing" written on the horizontal plaque on the door. He thought to himself that this is the place that Mr. Huang mentioned. Huang Xiaosi entered the house.
Afterwards, Wen Zhang jumped lightly and landed in the courtyard.
"Second uncle, Xiao Si came to Wenzhou with the young patriarch this time."
The middle-aged man called Second Uncle was slightly surprised and said: "Really, Zodiac is coming?"
"Exactly, we just arrived and stayed at the Wenqiaoling Inn."
"The same goes for Huang Dao. He won't stay with his second uncle when he comes here. By the way, Xiaosi, what's the purpose of your coming here?"
"Second uncle, a few days ago my sister-in-law escaped privately again. The patriarch was angry and ordered us to search everywhere. Later we found out that my sister-in-law probably left Wunijing Town by boat, which was bound for the Hainan Islands in the south.
boat, so the patriarch asked the young patriarch to take me and Huang San to Wenzhou to find my second uncle, and we must intercept my sister-in-law in Wenzhou."
"Xiao Si, is the sister-in-law you mentioned the same child bride wife from Zodiac back then?"
"Yes, second uncle."
"Isn't it just a woman who deserves such a big fight?"
"Second uncle, you haven't been back for many years. Our Huang family in Wunijing Town is famous for weaving. Although it has been affected by war in recent years, the Huang family's cloth is still able to hold up. The reason is
Because of my sister-in-law."
"Nonsense, my Huang family's weaving skills are passed down from our ancestors. How could this be the reason?"
"Second uncle, you don't know something. In the past ten years or so, with the passing of several masters in the family, the family has suddenly become disconnected and has no successors. Only my sister-in-law's weaving technology is unique, and she is better than her predecessors.
, vaguely close to the realm of a master."
"What, the realm of a master?" the second uncle said in surprise, "I remember that several masters in the family have never been able to break through the bottleneck of masters. I didn't expect that a yellow-haired girl would be the first to reach such a realm. This, this is too much
It’s hard for people to believe it.”
"Second uncle, it's hard for people to believe it, but it's true. Second uncle, the best-selling cloths in your cloth shop are all made by my sister-in-law."
"If that's the case, why did she run away from our clan?" the second uncle asked even more doubtfully.
"Well, it's a long story." Huang Xiaosi sighed and said sympathetically, "Second uncle, you also know that the elder sister-in-law is the child bride of the young patriarch. The elder sister-in-law grew up in a poor family and lost all her relatives at a very young age.
Lonely and helpless, she had no choice but to go to the clan leader's house and become a child bride. Although her sister-in-law worked early and late, she could not satisfy the clan leader.
Unexpectedly, the young patriarch was beaten almost every day. Like the patriarch, the young patriarch would reach out to the elders at every turn. If this continued, the elder sister-in-law naturally couldn't bear it and ran away. The patriarch was worried that the family's weaving technology would be spread, and secondly, he was afraid of losing the cash cow of his elder sister-in-law.
, so I asked my third brother and I to follow the young patriarch to Wenzhou, and we must bring my sister-in-law back."
"Brother has indeed gone too far. Xiaosi, under normal circumstances, the ship from the Huangpu River will arrive at the Wenzhou Pier around tomorrow. I will go to the Xiafu Ya Shipbuilding Department and ask them to assist in the search on the ship. As long as she still returns
On a ship, it's just a small thing,
The second uncle of the Shipping Department of Wenzhou Prefecture pays tribute every month, not to mention that this matter does not violate the laws of our country. However, as soon as the matter is over, I will go back with you and make sure to convince the elder brother that you can't beat people at will, especially
For a weaver who might become a master.”
Huang Xiaosi said excitedly: "It would be best if the second uncle could go home and persuade me. We all know that the only person the clan leader can accept other people's opinions is you, the second uncle. In fact, most of us below are sympathetic to my sister-in-law, but we just
,Oh, forget it, let’s not talk about it.”
"Well, Xiaosi, you should go back first and let Huang Dao do the work tomorrow morning, and we will go to the dock together."
"Yes, Second Uncle, then Xiaosi will go back first. As for the reason why my sister-in-law escaped, Second Uncle must not tell others that it was me who said it."
"good."
Huang Xiaosi didn't stay too long and immediately returned to Wenqiaoling Inn along the original route.
Almost at the same time, Wen Zhang also came to my house and told us all the conversation between Huang Xiaosi and his second uncle.
"Well, Wen Zhang, I understand." After listening, I thought for a while and said, "Sir, we will take turns monitoring Huang Xiaosi and others tonight. Let's go to the dock early tomorrow morning to see the excitement."
Yuan Ji said: "Yes, Master, I will arrange it."
"Huang Dao? Huang Daopo? Could it be her?" I thought to myself.
It’s just that Huang Dao is only in his thirties, so his child bride is only in her twenties or even younger, which is too different from the age of the weaving master in my impression. Huang Daopo is an old lady, and this
But she is a young woman.
Huang Daopo is from Wunijing Town, Songjiang Prefecture. Is this another coincidence?
