Chapter 11 Origin

Drunken Fragrance Courtyard is full of guests, there are unbearable laughter everywhere, and women's happy voices can be heard from the room from time to time.

In the cubicle on the second floor, Zhong Chengyi was sitting on a chair, and standing in front of him was a disheveled Miao merchant.Miao Shang'er buttoned up the buttons of the cheongsam slowly, raised his head, hooked his red lips, walked up to Zhong Chengyi, put his tender hand across Zhong Chengyi's chest, and said: "General, I am here today for a special purpose. Did you come to see Shang'er?"

Zhong Chengyi looked at the hand on his chest, and his face immediately became gloomy. He grabbed Miao Shang'er's wrist with his hand, shook it away fiercely, and said, "Get lost!"

"Aha, it hurts~" Miao Shang'er rubbed her wrist, and a thin layer of water vapor appeared in her eyes, "General, why are you so confused about style?"

Zhang San who was next to him couldn't help feeling distressed when he saw the beauty's aggrieved and delicate appearance, and said, "Master, how about..."

After Zhong Chengyi glanced at Zhang San indifferently, Zhang San quickly closed his mouth in fright.Zhong Chengyi raised his chin slightly, and gestured to Lieutenant Li next to him.

After seeing Zhong Chengyi's gesture, Lieutenant Li took out a photo from his pocket and said, "Do you know the person in the photo?"

Miao Shang'er walked over, picked up the photo in Lieutenant Li's hand, and said, "I know it. How could Boss Wu not know him?"

"What about this one?" Lieutenant Li took out Zhao Shuchen's photo and asked again.

Miao Shang'er glanced at the person in the photo, and said lightly, "I don't know."

Seeing Miao Shanger's irrelevant expression, Lieutenant Li continued: "This is Wu Changxu's wife, don't you think you look a lot like the woman in the photo?"

Miao Shanger glanced at the photo again, laughed and said, "Master, all the good-looking women in the world look alike, so do I look alike to all the good-looking women?"

Lieutenant Li was a little annoyed by her words going around, and said, "You understand what I mean, Miss Shang."

"Sorry, my lord, I really don't understand what you mean. If there is really nothing else, please come back." Miao Shang'er turned his head and glanced at Zhong Chengyi again, "However, if you lords If you want someone to serve you, then I am also very happy."

"No need." Zhong Chengyi got up and left.

Outside Zuixiang Building.

"Master, Miao Shang'er seems to be really ignorant of this case." Zhang San said.

"Really?" Zhong Chengyi turned his head and glanced at Miao Shang'er who greeted them upstairs, "Maybe..."

After Miao Shang'er saw a few people leaving, his eyes that were originally full of smiles suddenly became dark, making it impossible to see a trace of joy or anger in his eyes.

Zhong Chengyi once again came to the rooftop where Wu Changxu jumped off the building. Looking at the busy traffic downstairs and the Zuixiang Building not far away, he felt a little clearer.

"Master, that salt merchant has returned from the sea." A patrolman came over and said, "He is now in the interrogation room."

---------

"Master, why did you just leave like that? Huh..." A young man was sitting in the interrogation room crying, "I haven't seen you for the last time yet!"

"Cheng Yao. According to the investigation, Wu Changxu followed Wu Changxu when he worked in the shop for ten years." The patrolman said to Zhong Chengyi, "Wu Changxu brought him out of his hometown, and he has been following Wu Changxu ever since."

Zhong Chengyi walked to the interrogation room, sat down in front of Cheng Yao, and said, "Zhao Shuchen, you should know him."

Cheng Yao raised his tear-stained face, nodded, and said in a crying voice: "Of course I know, Madam is really the best person in the world, but it's a pity that God is jealous of her beauty, so she left so early."

"What about the relationship between Wu Changxu and her late wife?"

"The relationship between Master and Madam has always been excellent. I once thought that they would live forever and be united forever. I didn't expect... I didn't expect..." Cheng Yao cried.

"Actually, 12 years ago, when my wife passed away, I should have thought of it. I thought the master had already come out, but I didn't expect it to end like this."

Zhong Chengyi nodded to signal Cheng Yao to continue.

"At that time, the master and I were still giving odd jobs to people in the No. [-] shop..."

. . . .

"Chang Xu, why didn't I see you in the shop last week?" an old woman asked.

Wu Changxu smiled and said, "Ma'am, I accompanied Boss Qian to buy goods last week, so I wasn't here."

The old woman regretted and said: "Hey, if I knew it, I would have bought it in a few days. The salt from the shop I bought last time was short of catty and less. I obviously asked for two taels, but I was given two taels." For the money, I weighed it myself when I went back, and only half of it weighed half of that bag!"

Wu Changxu weighed salt for the old woman seriously, and said with a smile: "Then next time you come to our place, I will definitely give you a lot of salt."

"That's for sure."

Cheng Yao watched Wu Changxu talking and laughing with the old woman not far away, he was entangled and dared not go forward.

Wu Changxu waited for the old woman to leave, and when he was about to continue the inventory, he saw Cheng Yao who was standing still in the corner, and shouted, "Ah Yao, why are you standing there? Come back quickly."

Seeing that Wu Changxu called him, Cheng Yao hurried over.Wu Changxu took out a lukewarm biscuit from the inner lining, handed it to Cheng Yao and said: "You are hungry, I saw that you didn't eat anything in the morning and went out to buy one for you, it is still hot, eat it quickly, it will cool down in a while It won't taste good."

Cheng Yao took the biscuit from Wu Changxu's hand, didn't eat it, just squeezed it, seeing Wu Changxu busy, didn't want to speak at first, but thought of his mother's illness, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Changxu. . . ”

"What's wrong?"

Wu Changxu didn't stop what he was doing, and carried the boxes on the ground into the warehouse one by one. He didn't wait for Cheng Yao's second sentence when they were almost finished, so he walked over and sat next to Cheng Yao, using the pistol on his neck. Wiping his sweat with a towel, he rubbed Cheng Yao's shaved head with his hands, and asked with a smile, "What's the matter? Tell me something."

Cheng Yao lowered his head and squeezed the cake in his hand, opened his mouth, but didn't say anything.

Seeing Cheng Yao's appearance, Wu Changxu made fun of him and said, "When did Xiao Yao act like a big girl? It's making people laugh. Tell me what's going on, and I'll definitely help you."

Cheng Yao said hesitantly: "Brother Changxu...can you...can you... lend me some money." After finishing speaking, he gritted his teeth in frustration.

Seeing Cheng Yao's hesitant expression, Wu Changxu thought it was a big deal. The matter looked serious at first, so he suddenly laughed and said, "Oh, what should I do? Wait, brother, I'll take it for you." .”

After Wu Changxu finished speaking, he walked into the inner room, and came out of the inner room after a while, pointed at the coins in his hand, handed them to Cheng Yao and said, "Here is half-baked money, here I give it to you."

"No, no, brother, this is too much." Cheng Yao hurriedly evaded seeing Wu Changxu giving him so much money.

"You can take it if you give it to you." Wu Changxu looked at Cheng Yao and said, "Do you think I don't know why you ask for money? Is your mother seriously ill again?"

Cheng Yao looked at the money in his hand, his eyes were red, he nodded, and said, "Brother, what have you been doing these past few months?"

Wu Changxu smiled, took a bag of big white steamed buns from the bottom of the car and said, "Brother, there is food here, don't worry, and I found that the big white steamed buns are really filling."

When Cheng Yao saw the bag of white steamed buns in Wu Changxu's hand, tears came out of his eyes, and he knelt down on the ground, kowtowed Wu Changxu three times and said, "Brother, I will be reborn in the next life, no, I will give it to you in this life." Treat yourself like a cow or a horse to honor you."

Wu Changxu saw Cheng Yao suddenly knelt down, so he was so frightened that he quickly helped him up, and shouted: "What are you doing! Although I don't know a lot of Chinese characters, at least I know that men have gold under their knees. Who are you ruining?"

Cheng Yao wiped away his tears and snot with the back of his hand, and said, "Brother..."

Seeing people like this, Wu Changxu sighed and pulled him aside and said, "Ah Yao, I brought you out of the village. If you have any difficulties, just tell me." After speaking, he wiped away Cheng Yao's tears and smiled. Said: "Okay, look at your face, you look like that tabby cat, eat the cake quickly, don't think about anything else."

In the middle of the night, Wu Changxu came back from the pier after moving the boxes, and sneaked into his yard. He thought his mother had fallen asleep, but unexpectedly, he waited for him at the door.

"Why did you come back so late?" An older woman looked at Wu Changxu and said.

Seeing his mother standing at the door, Wu Changxu hurried forward and said, "Something happened in the shop, so I came back late."

The woman looked at Wu Changxu's sweaty head, and said with some distress: "Why is my head full of sweat, hurry up and eat."

"Hey." Wu Changxu replied with a smile.

At the dinner table, the woman put some pieces of diced meat into Wu Changxu's bowl for Wu Changxu, and said, "Come, eat more."

"You should be paid this month's shop."

"Um... that money boss said that this month's wages will be paid slowly." Wu Changxu said.

"Hey, that's fine."

Seeing his mother lamenting, Wu Changxu frowned impatiently.

---------

"Yu'er was walking on the road and met Mr. He bowed and saluted, and stood by the side of the road. Mr. has orders, and my son listens respectfully. If Mr. asks, he will answer respectfully. Once Mr. goes, then go. Everyone is called Zhili."

"Does anyone know what it means?" The gentleman asked while standing in front of the board, pointing to the classical Chinese text on the board.

Seeing that everyone was silent for a while, and no one wanted to answer, Mr. said: "Then please Zhao Shuchen answer."

"Zhao Shuchen?"

"Zhao Shuchen?"

"Sir, Shuchen is not here." A student replied.

Another female student said: "It seems that I turned the courtyard and escaped."

"What are you?" The gentleman was furious after hearing this, "How decent, a girl turned the courtyard and ran away, what a shame! What a shame!"

"Miss, miss~" the maid under the courtyard wall whispered to Zhao Shuchen who was having sex, "Miss, you have to be careful."

Half of Zhao Shuchen's body had already stepped out of the courtyard wall. At this time, the husband suddenly ran over and shouted: "Zhao Shuchen! Get down quickly!"

Zhao Shuchen heard the roar of the gentleman behind him, and was so frightened that his feet slipped and fell down, "Ah!"

Wu Changxu pushed the cart full of salt bags, looked at the address on the paper and said to himself: "The place Boss Qian said should be near here, why haven't we arrived yet?"

At this time, a huge shadow suddenly appeared in the sky, and then it fell on Wu Changxu's salt bag, and all the salt was spilled out.

Wu Changxu was startled when he saw a person suddenly fall from the fence, but he immediately came back to his senses, stepped forward to look, and found that it was a girl. Knowing where to put her hand, she could only stretch out a rough finger and gently pushed Zhao Shuchen's shoulder, saying, "Miss, are you okay?"

"Miss?"

Zhao Shuchen heard someone calling her, but her mind was dizzy. Looking at the spinning world in front of her, she shook her head uncomfortably. It took her a while to regain her senses. Just as she was about to say "it's okay" to that person, her mouth suddenly Filled with a salty and bitter taste, retching with nausea, frantically spitting the salt in his mouth into the grass next to him, his throat was hoarse and uncomfortable.

Wu Changxu saw that the person was suffering so much, he was so anxious that he hurriedly took the ladle, fetched water from the river and handed it to Zhao Shuchen.

At this moment, Zhao Shuchen felt so uncomfortable that he couldn't care less about whether the river water could be drunk, so he hurriedly took a big sip and rinsed his mouth desperately, trying to get rid of the disgusting salty and bitter taste.After going back and forth like this several times, the taste in Zhao Shuchen's mouth gradually disappeared.

Seeing that the person's face was finally no longer so pale, Wu Changxu let out a long sigh, sat on the ground, and said, "Miss, I'm really sorry. I didn't know you would fall from above. I'm really, really sorry!"

Zhao Shuchen raised her head, fiddled with the long hair sticking to her cheeks, smiled and said, "I'm fine, you don't have to worry."

Wu Changxu only saw Zhao Shuchen's appearance clearly at this time.It was already sunset, not as warm as the sun in the daytime, but the fire-like sunset glow reflected on Zhao Shuchen's face, looking so bright and moving.

Wu Changxu felt that he should have picked up a fairy this time, not an extraordinary person. . .
