Ding Hao left Cheng Mansion and went to the large car shop owned by Ye's Car Dealer in Xicheng. After asking, he learned that the Ding's motorcade was here and then headed west to an abandoned military camp three miles away. Ding Hao cheered up and continued on his way. As soon as he arrived at that camp
, entering the dilapidated camp gate, they saw a lantern inserted at the edge of the well, and a man was shaking a wheel to lift water. Just by looking at his figure, he knew it was Xue Liang.
Ding Hao exclaimed with great joy: "Damn pig!"
When Xue Liang heard the familiar voice, he looked up and saw a figure walking on the snowy night. When he got closer, he saw that it was not Ding Hao.
He immediately fell back into the well.
Xue Liang ran to Ding Hao, grabbed his arm and said nervously: "You idiot, what trouble did you cause outside? It's really bad now. The owner of the crime came to the door. I heard that the woman belongs to General Guangyuan.
My niece is leading a team of guards with swords and swords. She is so murderous that she is not afraid of anyone. If you are caught by her, there will be no good fruit to eat. You can escape back to Bazhou quickly before anyone notices."
He put his hand into his arms, groped for a long time, grabbed a handful of copper coins and said: "These are the rewards from the eldest lady on the road. I only have so many here, take them all."
The lantern stuck on the windlass stake on the side was swaying gently in the wind, reflecting the half-hidden face of Xue Liang, who was standing sideways. That honest face was full of sincere concern and worry. Ding Hao felt a surge in his heart.
Warmly, he held Xue Liang's big cold hand, pushed it back slowly, and said softly: "Brother, keep this money, don't spend it randomly, save it to marry a good wife, brother is fine, you don't have to worry."
"Is everything really okay?"
"It's really okay!"
Seeing that he looked relaxed, Xue Liang picked up the money, rubbed his nose and said, "It's okay. When that girl comes during the day, it's really scarier than being caught by an official. By the way, you're not recuperating in Puji Temple."
Well, why did you come here by yourself? Are you cured? Why did you offend that young lady?"
Ding Hao smiled and said: "These things are a long story. Let's talk about it later when we go back. Come on, let's get the water first."
The two of them carried a bucket of water back to Xue Liang's residence. Along the way, they saw some Minzhuang people who had not rested yet. They were both surprised and happy to see Ding Hao. They couldn't help but come up to say a few words, ask about his condition, and ask questions.
The reason why he offended Miss Tang was a bit of concern. After this journey, Ding Hao has established his prestige in the hearts of these farmers.
Ding Hao felt very warm in his heart, and a smile bloomed on his face. He walked forward again, and under the eaves of a house, Manager Liu was walking in deep thought. Ding Hao just finished greeting a Minzhuang, turned around and saw him, and couldn't help but smile.
He raised his hand and was about to say hello when he saw Manager Liu scurry behind the pillars of the corridor, and Ding Hao's smile suddenly froze.
Without stopping, he and Xue Liang walked past the house carrying a bucket of water, and a realization came to his mind: Miss Tang came to see him aggressively today, and Tang Yanyan was General Cheng Shixiong of Guangyuan.
Niece. Guangyuan is still under the influence of a feudal town. What is a feudal town? Even these warlords have independent judicial power. In Guangyuan, Ding Hao was beaten to death by Miss Tang, and others might not
In the case of eating people's lives, Guanshi Liu is a "gentleman" who does not stand behind a dangerous wall.
Thinking that the two of them got along quite well along the way, Ding Hao couldn't help but feel sad. The world is cold, and people's hearts are cold and warm. A gust of wind came, and Ding Hao subconsciously shrank his neck. What he felt at this time was not the coldness of the wind, but the sadness of human nature.
Returning to Xue Liang's residence, he saw that Feng Dazhangbian was also here. He was wearing a sheepskin coat and sitting next to the stove baking steamed buns. He was also very happy to see him arrive. He casually asked about his situation after farewell and learned that he
After running around for a long time and still not eating, Feng Dazhangbian quickly took a big bowl, poured a bowl of boiling water, tore a few pieces of dried meat and soaked it in, then handed him two fragrant steamed buns and said with a smile: "
If you have anything to say, let’s talk until you’re done eating, haha... I mean, Xiao Ding, I only found out in the past two days... If you can’t stand my snoring, just say so. You’re not the one who’s going to suffer if you can’t save face? You don’t have to worry, man, today
I won’t sleep on the same bed with you for the rest of the night, hahaha..."
The three of them were chatting and laughing, and Ding Hao swallowed two steamed buns and a bowl of dried meat soaked in water. He was really hungry that day. He knew that the steamed buns would swell up in his stomach, making him very full, but
I couldn't help but pick up the third one. At this moment, someone shouted loudly: "Manager Ding, Manager Ding, are you here?"
Following the sound, a man opened the door and walked in. He was overjoyed when he saw Ding Hao: "Manager Ding, are you really here? Are you feeling better?"
Ding Hao recognized this man. He was also a servant of the Ding Mansion Courtyard. His name was Wu Wei. Everyone used to call him Dumb. Ding Yuluo relied on him very much along the way. Everyone called him Ding Guanshi. Wu Wei then
He also changed his words and called Ding to be in charge. He was a very responsible farmer. He quickly stood up and said with a smile: "I just arrived, and I feel much better."
"That's good, that's good." Wu Wei saw that Feng Da Zhang Whip was there, and he bowed to him, called "Mr. Feng" as a courtesy, and then said to Ding Hao: "Miss, I am happy to hear that you are back.
That's right, I asked the young steward Ding to go over and talk."
If Ding Yuluo couldn't come, Ding Hao also wanted to go. He thought it was getting late and the news of his return might not spread widely. He also planned to rest for a night and see Ding Yuluo tomorrow morning. Since Ding Yuluo sent someone to come,
After calling him, he put down the steamed buns and said to Feng Dazhangbian and Xue Liang: "I'm going to see the eldest lady."
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
A lamp was like a bean, and Ding Yu lingered under the lamp for a long time, with a hint of worry between her brows.
At this moment, Wu Wei called at the door: "Miss, Manager Ding is here."
"Oh?" Ding Yu raised her eyebrows lightly and said quickly: "Please ask Manager Ding to come in quickly."
Ding Hao opened the door curtain and entered the room. This is an abandoned military camp. All the buildings are in the same pattern. As soon as you enter the door, there is a kang, and the two rooms on the left and right still have kangs. However, because Miss Ding lives in this house,
So upon entering, this room was used as a meeting place for meetings. There was a Kang table on the Kang table. There was an oil lamp and a cup of tea on the Kang table. Ding Yuluo stood in front of the lamp. Even though the light was dim, she could still see her beautiful face.
Lost a lot.
"Ding Hao has met the eldest lady." Ding Hao walked in and bowed.
"Sit down, there's no need to be polite." Ding Yuluo waved her hands, turned around and sat down at the end of the kang table, leaning on the table and tilting her head, looking at him like a bird looking at people, and said: "Is the illness...already cured?"
Ding Hao sat next to the kang and said with a smile: "Miss Lao is worried about me. I just caught a cold. I spent a day in the temple to heal myself and soaked in a hot spring to sweat. Now I have recovered."
"Well!" Ding Yuluo nodded slightly: "That's good. Let me ask you, have you... offended Miss Tang?"
Ding Hao was startled. Thinking of Liu Shiyi's reaction just now, the warmth in his heart disappeared. He took a closer look at Ding Yuluo's nervous expression, and felt a chill in his heart: "Is the eldest lady going to 'avoid the God of Plague' too?"
Okay, I'm planning to return to Bazhou and take my mother away with me. Ding Tingxun regards my mother and son as a thorn in his side. I guess he doesn't care about freeing a slave. What I did along the way can be regarded as the most benevolent and righteous thing to your Ding family.
Okay, from now on we break up and go our separate ways."
Ding Hao's voice hardened and he said coldly: "Yes, the villain has indeed offended Miss Tang."
Ding Yuluo said anxiously: "Where do you start with this nonsense? You were recuperating in the temple, so why did you meet her? How can you have a grudge with her? I asked her, she didn't tell you, but you are like this
The appearance is so confusing that how can one know the truth?"
Ding Hao said coldly: "Miss, there is no need to ask anymore, this matter cannot be resolved."
Ding Yuluo stood up and said angrily: "You..."
Meeting Ding Hao's cold gaze, she softened again and said, "What on earth is going on? You have to at least let me understand."
Ding Hao took a deep breath and said proudly: "I was recuperating in the temple. I saw a man sneaking around. I followed him out of curiosity. I didn't expect that man was a thief who sneaked into the back temple to make money. I followed him, but I accidentally shot him.
I bumped into a bathroom, and I was confused for a moment, so I stopped and peeped at the female family member of Tan Yue, the protector of the temple, taking a bath."
Ding Yuluo's almond-shaped eyes widened, and she lost her voice: "Then...that woman who is taking a bath...is Miss Tang?"
"Exactly!"
Ding Yu said with a trace of luck: "You... didn't see anything, did you?"
Seeing her surprise, Ding Hao felt a burst of joy in his heart. Ever since he knew that Ding Tingxun was mean, hypocritical and unjust, Ding Hao had never thought about having any family relationship with him. He tried his best along the way, not only wanting to enrich
Based on my own experience, I also want to improve my situation in the Ding family. The ultimate goal of improving my situation in the Ding family is to wait for my wings to fly out of the Ding family compound forever, escape from the prison in one day, and the sky is high.
fly.
Now it seemed that the originally steady plan was going to be moved forward, but the one who forced him to make this decision was Miss Ding, the only one in the Ding family who cared about him, which made him particularly sad.
There was a sarcastic smile at the corner of his mouth, and he said lightly: "I saw it, not only her waist, back, thighs, but even her butt."
"You...you...oh!" Ding Yuluo's face became even more bitter. She walked around the room twice and murmured: "It turned out to be for such a thing. If so, then it's really true.
It’s irresolvable, what should we do? What should we do?”
She suddenly stopped, glared at Ding Hao, then took out two ingots of silver from her sleeves, put them hard into Ding Hao's hand, and said angrily: "It's your fault too, why are you so ignorant, girl... then... then
Is it just a casual look? Alas, it's too late now. Although our food has arrived, depending on the situation, General Guangyuan is still unwilling to give up because of our delay. Although there is no fear of life now, this exclusive sale
There is a high probability that the military ration business is hopeless, plus what happened to Miss Tang... I think we have to go back in these three or two days. Take these two ingots of silver and leave early tomorrow morning.
We will temporarily go to a village outside the city to find a place to stay. When we return, if you stay far away, then Miss Tang will not be able to find you, and her anger will gradually dissipate. She can still pursue her to Bazhou without mercy.
I can’t go…”
"What?" Ding Hao held two silver ingots and was stunned for a moment. Why... the development of the situation was completely contrary to his expectation?
Ding Hao had two ingots of silver in his sleeves and was walking in confusion on the way back to his residence. In his daze, he didn't notice that Manager Liu was coming from the other side of the road. Liu Shiyi glanced at him secretly and sped up.
He ran towards Ding Yuluo's residence.
Ding Hao lowered his head and stepped on the snow step by step. The subtle "crunching" sound was particularly clear in the quiet moonlight, just like pebbles thrown into the water, causing ripples in his heart. The words in his sleeves
His hands gently touched the smooth surface of the silver, like filtering his heart into gentle water. He suddenly stopped and looked up at the bright moon in the sky. The moonlight was like frost, and it shone a little coldly on his face.
a feeling of.
Ding Hao's mind cleared, and he suddenly seemed to have decided something. He let out a breath, turned around resolutely, and strode towards Ding Yuluo's residence...
