Son Mo

Chapter 28

On the way to Shen Yuan, the little girl choked and narrated the ins and outs of the whole incident.

It turned out that the lame beggar thought of a way to make money recently, which was to go to the barren hills outside the city twice a day to chop two bundles of dry firewood and come back.One bundle was sent to the grain and oil shop, and the other bundle was taken to the market to sell a few copper coins, and nothing happened.But yesterday evening, he accidentally cut down a tree with an owner by mistake and was discovered by the forest guards. The other three grabbed the lame beggar on the spot, and then beat him to death.The beggar endured the pain and fled back to the Shenyuan, where he remained in a coma.

The little girl was in a daze, remembering that her elder brother had mentioned the great benevolent person who gave half a catty of fragrant rice as alms, so she came to Zhengguan Street in a panic with the last bit of hope, and wanted to ask Shen Jun for help.

Coincidentally, after Xiao Yuanzi asked about the location of the forest, he suddenly pressed his master's ear with a strange expression and announced a piece of heavy news: the owner's forest is very likely to be the property of the Sun family, and the lame beggar was severely injured Nine out of ten of the guards in the forest are also the servants of the Sun family!

The beggar cut down the firewood to repay his kindness, but it turned out that it was the Sun family who beat him to serious injuries.Shen Jun suddenly felt overwhelmed, embarrassment and guilt in his heart, and because of this complicated mood, he seemed extraordinarily dedicated to helping.

On the same day, Xiao Yuanzi, who was calm in his work, was left in Shenyuan by An to continue to help change the medicine and take care of him, just in case.Shen Jun also took Xiao Anzi back to Sun's residence until very late.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the two masters and servants stepped into the gate of the Sun's house, they would meet the big housekeeper of the Sun's house and hurried up.Confused, Shen Jun was led by the housekeeper to the hall of the Sun family, and then he saw the eldest son of the county magistrate and young master Xiaojie with a sullen expression on his face.

Shen Jun was stunned, and subconsciously turned around to run away, but when he turned his head, he saw the butler's old face covered with bark, and he trembled in shock on the spot.

As if he had expected Shen Jun's reaction for a long time, the old housekeeper just happened to stop Shen Jun from retreating intentionally or unintentionally, and said with a blank expression: "The two young masters of the Li family have been waiting in the hall for nearly an hour, young master, just shake your sleeves and leave I'm afraid it's not right." At the end, he added, "Since you are in our mansion, the two young masters will definitely pay attention to propriety."

The corners of his eyes twitched twice, Shen Jun felt a million reluctances in his heart, he gave the old butler a sideways look, but the old butler completely ignored them.Shen Jun almost stiffened half of his body before walking into the hall of the Sun family. At the same time, Mr. Li, who was sitting on a chair sipping tea a moment ago, also stood up, and greeted him with a smile and cupped his hands.

"Young Master Sun, I hope you will forgive me for taking the liberty of visiting the door."

"Hahaha... Who am I supposed to be? It turns out to be Mr. Li. It's a pleasure to meet you!" Shen Jun laughed insincerely twice, and Shen Jun thought to himself: You brought your precious brother to the Sun's residence to make trouble, why are you pretending in front of me? Smiling tiger!Glancing at him from the corner of the eye, he glanced at Mr. Xiaojie again, only to see that the latter was looking at him warily.Seemingly aware of Shen Jun looking over from the corner of his eye, Mr. Xiaojie snorted coldly with disdain, and immediately turned his head to look elsewhere.

The atmosphere in the hall was suddenly a little awkward, and Shen Jun kept silent, pretending to be dumb happily, just wanting to see how the Li family brothers would make trouble.

At this time, the old butler suddenly broke the silence with a hoarse voice, "It's getting late, the young master, why don't you let the two guests have a simple meal in the house, and the old man will order the kitchen to prepare it."

Shen Jun's eyes moved, and he thought: Leave a fart!I have never chewed a grain of rice in this hall, so I have no right to speak to keep people eating.You old guy is quite good at superficiality!

Before he could make any statement, Li Daguan hurriedly said: "No need! My mother is still in the mansion waiting for the two of my brothers to go back to have dinner together." Today, Ruijie behaved a little inappropriately, and today I brought my third younger brother to come to Baodi to bother me, and my original intention was to make amends to Young Master Sun."

Hearing this, the expression on the face of Mr. Xiaojie who was sitting on the side became more and more uncomfortable, and his buttocks that were pressed against the chair could not stop moving around, and even the eyes that looked at Shen Jun were full of resentment and anger. Unwilling.

On the other hand, Shen Jun immediately transformed from the state of "a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water and pretending to be dead" to "the state of turning over serfs and singing excitedly", the speed of face changing is comparable to that of Sichuan opera.

Shen Jun had a smile on his face, and put his hand on Li Daguan's shoulder to call him a brother, and he immediately started to tremble, "Brother Li, what you said is serious! I did have a little misunderstanding with Xiao Jiejie in the past, but it's not worth it. It’s so grand, and you even came to the door to apologize in person! What a shameful little brother!” She raised her brows and looked at Young Master Xiaojie again, “But...then again, Xiaojiejie is really vicious! "

Young master Xiaojie got angry on the spot, and stood up from the grand master's chair with a 'crack' sound.

"Speak clearly to me! What kind of misunderstanding is it? Who is worse? It is clear that you caused trouble first, yet you dare to beat me up in front of my elder brother!"

Officer Li rolled his eyes, "Ruijie! Don't be presumptuous!"

"Brother, why are you turning your elbows out! I didn't do anything wrong, so why should I apologize to this bastard!" Mr. Xiaojie's cheeks were flushed, and he clenched his fists and stared at Shen Jun viciously, "I No matter! Daddy will punish him when he comes back, scold him if he wants to, I admit it! But he wants me to apologize to this guy and let him dream of his age!" After finishing speaking, he snorted heavily in disdain, and shook his sleeves Turn around and leave.

With such an undisciplined younger brother, Li Daguan also has one head and two big heads, so he can only smile helplessly for a while.On the contrary, Shen Jun immediately chased after him, grabbed Mr. Xiaojie's left sleeve, and said with a playful smile, "Hey! Xiaojiejie, wait a moment, don't rush away so quickly..."

"Go away! Stay away from me!" Just yelling at Shen Jun, Young Master Xiaojie frowned so much that he could kill a fly, his aggrieved eyes turned red.

The young man obviously hurt his self-esteem.Realizing that he would accept as soon as he was happy, Shen Jun then smiled a little bit, and avoided the entrance of the hall with his arms tightly hugged by Young Master Xiaojie who was constantly struggling.

"If I don't apologize, I won't apologize, so why are you serious~" Shen Jun put on a big brother look, "I did do something wrong before, but I can't slap you, you must be at fault, right? I want to apologize to you in advance, so don’t keep it in your heart. Isn’t there an old saying, ‘If you don’t fight, you don’t know each other’? This is also our fate..."

Young Master Xiaojie turned his head and glared at Shen Jun, pursed his lips, frowned, and didn't respond.

Shen Jun shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm really afraid of you, I've never met someone with such a bad temper!" After a pause, he said, "Otherwise, another day, I'll cook for you in person, right? Apologizing, this sincerity is finally leveraged, right?"

Young Master Xiaojie turned his head to look elsewhere, still stubbornly refusing to speak.

Shen Jun suddenly felt almost speechless.

"Hey! Brother, can you do it? Don't lose your temper like a child..." Shen Jun patted Young Master Xiaojie on the head, and the latter immediately ran away with disgust.

Shen Jun said patiently, "I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong! Yes, no, let me! I shouldn't have snatched your things on Beipo Street. I shouldn't have fought with you on the third day of junior high school. Be careful to kick you into the muddy ditch, you will lose face. You should not have molested you on the day of my father's birthday party on the sixth day of the lunar new year. Li, Rui, Jie, yes, no, get up!"

Young Master Xiaojie still kept his face tense and refused to speak, but the expression on his face eased a little bit imperceptibly.

Shen Jun continued to work on his lip service, "My young master apologized to you so sincerely, let's make big things small and small things small, and stop making trouble. Otherwise, I will suffer a lot in front of Master Sun later. The county magistrate will also have to be punished and scolded, so why bother to hurt both sides? Don’t you think so?”

As soon as the words were finished, Young Master Xiaojie suddenly used all his brute strength to shake him hard.Shen Jun suddenly exclaimed "Oops", staggered and was thrown four or five steps away before standing still.

I saw Mr. Xiaojie looking across in disgust, "You bastard is the one who has a shitty fate with you!" After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and ran away as if to escape.

Looking at the back of Young Master Xiaojie leaving in anger, Shen Jun smiled silently.Turning around, he saw Xiao Anzi rushing over with a nervous expression on his face. Shen Jun waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.At this time, Mr. Li and the old butler also left the hall one after the other.

The former walked over quickly with eyes full of apology, fists clasped, "My brother is stubborn and unruly, if you offend me, please don't blame the young master, I will give you a good reprimand after I return home!"

Only then did Shen Jun finally show the calm side that the young master of the Sun family in Changyang City should have, and said with a serious smile: "It was originally my younger brother who made mistakes first, so I really can't blame your younger brother." After a pause, he said, "Just now I I said a few words of heart-to-heart with Xiaojie, and by the way, resolved all the misunderstandings, and we will not have any troubles in the future, Brother Li, you can rest assured."

After seeing off Mr. Li, the sky was completely dark, and there were no grains of rice or stars in the ink-like night sky, not to mention that the moon girl, who was usually spoiled and spoiled, had already slipped into the depths of the cloud and fell asleep. past.

After a day of tossing, Shen Jun was also very tired. After returning to the small broken courtyard, he immediately lay down on the wooden bed in a "big" shape, and wanted to sleep in the dark without even bothering to move. He even skipped dinner.Xiao Anzi dutifully built a fire to boil water, and served his master to wash his face and feet.

In a daze, just when Shen Jun felt that he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard a knock on the door from outside the courtyard. Shen Jun opened his eyes and stared blankly at the beam above.

"The little guy just finished tossing, and the old guy came again, so why don't people live..."
