Chapter 135: The Courageous 3,000 words
"Impossible, it can't be wrong. Mr. Sun lives here." The old man was very excited. He rushed forward and grabbed Shi Shishi's arm without hesitation, and knelt on the ground and begged: "Please, please
Take me in to see Master Sun, if it's too late my son will be dead!"
When the old man rushed forward, Shi Shi was on guard and subconsciously raised his foot to kick him away. However, his eyes fell on the old man's lame leg and he hesitated for a moment before the old man caught him.
"Let go!" Shitou used skill to get rid of the old man's cracked hand. Seeing that he had no ill intentions, he did not push him away: "The owner of this yard is named Jing. It is true that there is no Mr. Sun you are looking for."
Seeing that the stone didn't seem to speak, the old man calmed down and said in a daze: "It shouldn't be, it shouldn't be. Those people clearly said that Mr. Sun lives here. Let me beg Mr. Sun. They won't lie to me."
Dabu thought of something and whispered in Shitou's ear: "The steward in charge of Bieyuan's affairs is named Sun. Could he be here to find him?"
Shitou frowned: "Guanshi Sun is a slave, how dare he call himself 'Master Sun' to others?"
Da Bu shook his head: "It should be the honorific title that others gave him. I'm curious about what the old man has to do with Manager Sun. It seems that his son has been taken advantage of, and he asked Manager Sun to save his son. Does Manager Sun have such ability?
"
Shitou heard the hidden meaning of Da Bu's words, and just as he was about to speak, Jing Heng said impatiently: "Take him aside to check clearly. If there is someone he is looking for in Bieyuan, just let that person come out to see him."
After that, he raised his feet and entered the garden. Scissors and Dabu winked at the stone and hurriedly followed.
Two moments later, Shitou hurried to the study with a heavy face, and said to Jing Heng who put down the book: "Sir, the person the old man is looking for is indeed Manager Sun!"
After saying that, he stepped forward and carefully explained in a low voice the reason why he was looking for Manager Sun.
"Slave dog, what a courageous dog!" Jing Heng was furious and slapped the heavy books on the table.
"Master, calm down!" Shitou knelt on the ground with a pop and said in a deep voice: "This matter is of great importance. I don't know how far it is involved. I hope that the master will suppress the matter for the time being. After the investigation is completed, the master will deal with Manager Sun."
!”
Jing Heng snorted coldly: "Hurry up and go!"
"Yes, young master!" Shitou ordered, stood up and left.
After this incident, Jingheng's good mood was completely ruined. He couldn't stand it after reading a few pages of the book, so he simply got up and left the study to go to the Qin family across the lake to find Qin Xiaoxiao.
Thinking that Qin Xiaoxiao was still taking a nap and would not wake up for an hour, he was afraid that he could not help but wake her up, so he walked to the newly built koi pond in the back garden and fed the first two fish with fish food.
Several koi carps that geniuses "entered the pond".
Seeing the koi carps scrambling for the fish food, and soon his belly became fuller, Jing Heng suppressed the urge to chop off Steward Sun's dog paws.
At this time, Sun Da avoided the guards guarding the main courtyard, quietly brought the lame old man to the north courtyard, and found Manager Sun who was settling accounts in the study.
The old man had never seen Steward Sun, but he had heard someone describe Steward Sun’s appearance. When he saw Steward Sun’s mustache, he tremblingly knelt on the ground and banged his head: “Master Sun, please, please,
I beg you to be noble and let go of the little old man's son. In the future, the little old man will work as a cow and a horse to repay Master Sun's kindness!"
Manager Sun didn't seem to hear the old man's words and continued to write down the verified amount in the account book.
The old man was at a loss and didn't dare to get up, so he had to kowtow to Manager Sun again: "Master Sun, I only have one son, and I have a grandson to raise. Please show mercy.
Show mercy!"
Manager Sun made a miscalculation, and he was so upset that he tore up a page of paper.
When Sun Da saw this, he kicked the old man: "Old man, don't make any noise!"
"Ah--" The old man was too old to withstand Sun Da's kick. He immediately lay on the ground for a long time before getting up. For fear of Sun Da's kick again, he suddenly stopped his voice and looked horrified.
How dare you continue to plead for your son?
Seeing that he had calmed down, Sun Da quietly stepped forward and said to Manager Sun in a low voice: "Dad, the person who informed Anzi was Shi Weiwei. I think it was Shi Weiwei who bumped into this old guy when he came back, and he didn't know that this old guy was there.
No nonsense about Stone Guard."
Manager Sun's face changed slightly, he put down his account book and pen, and stared at the old man kneeling on the ground with a surreptitious look: "Since you came to this villa, have you said anything to others?"
The old man had been warned repeatedly by Shi Shi, but he was relatively stable: "Back to Mr. Sun, the little old man just asked your servants to report to you, and didn't say anything to him."
Hearing that the old man regarded Jing Heng's most capable bodyguard as his slave, Manager Sun was inexplicably excited and his face looked much better: "You have a brain!"
The old man noticed this and carefully interceded for his son: "Mr. Sun, all the things that can be pawned at home have been pawned, and there are only a few broken chairs left that no one wants, which are really not enough for the remaining five dollars."
Ten taels of silver. If Mr. Sun can let Xiao Lao'er's son go, we, father and son, will work diligently to repay the fifty taels of silver."
Manager Sun smiled coldly: "Old man, when things have come to this point, you still dare to play tricks on me. You don't want your son's life anymore, do you?"
The old man was so frightened that he kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Mr. Sun, I will never dare to play tricks on you. Your son is my lifeblood. How dare I lose my life!"
Seeing that he was almost frightened, Manager Sun said slowly: "Your family really doesn't have fifty taels of silver. Don't you still have the secret recipe for making black wine? As long as you come up with the secret recipe for black wine, I will let your son go!"
When he heard the words "Secret Recipe for Wujiu", the old man's expression changed and he tried to deny it: "Mr. Sun, no, there is no 'Secret Recipe for Wujiu' as you call it in my family, not even this little old man with the word "Wujiu"
First time I’ve heard of it.”
Without waiting for Manager Sun's instructions, Sun Da kicked him: "Old man, you still dare to tell lies with your eyes open. Your incompetent son has already told you that your family has the lost secret recipe of black wine!"
The old man's face turned pale rapidly, and he suddenly vomited a mouthful of old blood. He stared at the Sun family and his son, opened his mouth full of blood, and smiled sarcastically: "Haha, it turns out that it was you who set the trap for me.
My son jumped into the pit, got him addicted to gambling, and borrowed the usury money from the gambling house, just for the sake of the secret recipe of black wine, good, good, good..."
Is there really a secret recipe for black wine? The Sun family's father and son's eyes widened, and deep greed flashed across their eyes: The Sun family is determined to get the secret recipe for black wine!
The Qin family did not know that a storm was about to affect their family in Huaqingyuan across the lake. As the weather became warmer day by day, weeds gradually appeared in the wheat fields, and they had to go to the wheat fields to pull weeds every day.
Qin Xiaoxiao thought that she had grown up and that her eldest brother and second brother were in school, so she should be responsible for part of the farm work, so she followed the adults to pull weeds in the fields every day, even though the grass she pulled had not been eaten by her yet.
A lot of wheat seedlings were trampled.
Fortunately, Qin Xiaoxiao's destructive power was so strong that the Qin family did not dare to let her go to the ground anymore. After breakfast every day, they drove her, Sanbao and Dahuang Bieba to the foot of the mountain or to the edge of Qinghu Lake. Unexpectedly, Qin Xiaoxiao herself
Found something more interesting: digging shepherd's purse!
Manager Sun was so courageous that he dared to open a casino to usury money, causing the death of other people's families, but it did not affect Jingheng's coming to Qin's house to play with Qin Xiaoxiao every day. Seeing that she fell in love with digging wild vegetables, he could only accompany her.
It’s on.
"Brother Li, the dumplings stuffed with shepherd's purse and meat are delicious. Let's pick some more and take them home, and let my mother make dumplings for you. You will definitely like them!" Qin Xiaoxiao put the shepherd's purse she had just picked up.
Put it in the basket and express your desire for dumplings stuffed with shepherd's purse and meat.
"Humph, I'm a glutton, so you're going to get involved with me!" Jing Heng doesn't care about dumplings filled with shepherd's purse and meat. Although he dislikes it, he likes Qin Xiaoxiao because he has something delicious to eat.
Yu condescended to take the small shovel from Qin Xiaoxiao's hand, and shoveled a green shepherd's purse with a somewhat strange posture.
"Wow, Brother Li is so awesome. He didn't even break it." Qin Xiaoxiao once again praised Jingheng in a fancy way, as if it was not easy to pick shepherd's purse: "Find another shovel, Third Uncle, Brother Second
Brother will be home tomorrow and will make a lot of dumplings."
Jing Heng frowned subconsciously, not liking Dabao who was very annoying and clinging to Qin Xiaoxiao, and even more disgusted with Qin He who used bad luck to deceive the Qin family.
His attitude towards these two people depended on their attitude towards Qin Xiaoxiao, so he asked: "How does your third uncle treat you?"
Qin Xiaoxiao nodded without hesitation and counted Qin He's good qualities on his fingers: "My third uncle always brings me delicious and fun things every time I come home; my third uncle can write beautiful calligraphy and teach me how to write my own name;
The third uncle can tell nice stories and is not like the elder brother who scares people; the third uncle has a good temper and will not get angry when I do something wrong and will reason with me..."
When the little girl finished counting her ten fingers, she took it upon herself to spread Jingheng's hand and counted all his fingers. Finally, in Jingheng's complicated eyes, she concluded: "Uncle San is just a good person. It's my fault."
The best third uncle I’ve ever had!”
The previous compliments were okay. When he heard the last sentence, let alone scissors and cloth, Jing Heng couldn't help but laugh and deliberately teased the little girl: "How many third uncles do you have?"
Qin Xiaoxiao was confused: "One."
Jing Heng rubbed her head: "Well, I'm not stupid, just a little stupid!"
Stupid is so cute that he thinks stupid has become a complimentary word.
"Humph, brother Li is stupid, as stupid as stupid Dahuang!" Qin Xiaoxiao slapped Jingheng's hand away unhappily, comparing him to Dahuang who kept spinning around and biting his own tail not far away.
"Woof?" When Dahuang heard his little master calling him, he immediately stopped his stupid behavior of chasing his tail, tilted his head and stared at her with dog eyes.
