"Lan'er, Dad has something to ask you."
Shen Ruolan raised her head from Yao Diaozi: "Father, what's the matter?"
Shen Dejian hesitated for a moment, and said, "Who was that Qi Ye who came to our house with Dr. Nie the day you came back?"
These days, although Shen Dejian didn't ask her, it didn't mean that he had forgotten about it. In fact, not only did he not forget it, he was still thinking about it in his heart!
At first glance, that man is not an ordinary person. He has an innate noble and domineering aura, and a bloody evil aura, which is the kind that can control people's lives. He can't help but feel that that person, It's the one who lives across from his house.
This idea made him feel quite scared, so that he didn't dare to face it squarely for several days, and today he mustered up the courage to ask.
Shen Ruolan was silent for a moment, and said honestly, "Father, he is King Zhan."
Hearing this, Shen Dejian's heart flinched suddenly, and his eyelids were lifted up: "Lan'er, what's going on? Didn't you say you've made it clear to him? Why is he still entangled? Is he Do you still have that thought for you?"
Seeing that her father was a little anxious, Shen Ruolan hurriedly comforted him and said, "Don't think too much, I met him by chance in the mountains when I went to the mountains to collect herbs. His master is a monk from the Qipan Temple in Wolong Mountain. Those ghosts He helped me pick the grass from the mountain behind the Qipan Temple."
When Shen Dejian heard this, he became even more anxious, "So, our family owes him a huge favor?"
He owed him such a big favor, how could he pay it back? Will it be unclear in the future
"Father, don't worry, I will take care of this matter, don't worry about it." Shen Ruolan didn't want her father to be anxious, so she hurriedly comforted her.
However, how could Shen Dejian's inner anxiety be soothed by a few words
"How do you deal with it? You are a child, how can you deal with a big man like him? Besides, our family still owes him such a big favor!"
Shen Ruolan saw that her father was frowning, as if he was facing an enemy, and comforted her and said: "Father, you really don't have to be afraid, and you don't have to worry, King Zhan is upright, even if he has a good impression of his daughter, he will not force others to make things difficult, otherwise daughter I won’t sit here and talk to you now, I’ve already lived in the backyard of the palace.”
Although the words are quite reasonable, Shen Dejian still feels uneasy. Although King Zhan is still very polite to them now, it is because he still has such thoughts about her daughter. Once he became angry from embarrassment, he could wipe out their whole family in an instant, and fall into a situation beyond redemption!
After careful consideration for a long time, he said seriously, "Lan'er, try to go out as little as possible in the future. If you have anything to do, Dad will do it for you. Don't associate with people in Prince Zhan's Mansion. When your mother recovers, Let's move out..."
"Okay, Dad, I'll listen to you."
Otherwise, Shen Ruolan also plans to move out with her family when her mother recovers from her illness. She lives too close to him and sees him without looking up or down all day. It's not so easy to break up with him. If she moves away and separates, time will be slow Slowly diluting everything will also dilute his goodwill and enthusiasm for her, and only then can her life return to its former peace.
So, when Dad said that, she immediately agreed without hesitation.
"However, Dad, I really need you to go out and do it for me." Shen Ruolan said.
"What's the matter?"
"It's the wasteland I opened in my hometown, and I haven't paid them yet..."
I was in a hurry to gather herbs for my mother, but the land reclamation and fish pond digging at home have not yet been completed. I hired those old people, and the wages have not been settled for a long time, so I have to go back and pay for others; Well, the two taels of silver each of those people who went into the mountains that Eryong helped her hired didn't cash in. I don't know if anyone found ginseng flowers and ghost grass. If they found them, they would have to pay them extra money!
Mother is still sick, she has to cook medicine for her every day (it’s so convenient to put spring water in the medicine and rice), and she can’t leave for a while, why don’t I let my father help her finish the finishing work of land reclamation , By the way, pay everyone's wages.
She told her father about the situation at home, and Shen Dejian immediately agreed when she heard it.
He hasn't gone back to his hometown for half a year, and he is also thinking about it in his heart. Now that his wife is fine, he just goes back to have a look...
*****
The father and daughter were hesitant, and Shen Dejian went to the street to buy some gifts. After all, he hadn't been home for half a year, and it was so easy to go back, so he had to bring some food for his wife and Brother Zhang!
In the early morning of the next day, Shen Dejian went back to Kaoshantun by car. The carriage hired by the car dealership drove fast along the way, and stayed in an inn in a small town in the evening.
Unexpectedly, I met an acquaintance in this small inn!
"Er Yong, why are you here?" As soon as Shen Dejian entered the inn, he saw Zhang Eryong sitting in the guest yard enjoying the shade, and immediately smiled.
He has always regarded Zhang Eryong as his own son, so he is naturally happy to see him.
Seeing Shen Dejian coming, Zhang Eryong hurriedly stood up to say hello, and after exchanging a few pleasantries, he said, "I'm thinking about my second aunt, come and have a look!"
Shen Dejian laughed and said: "It's hard for you to miss it. Your second aunt's health is much better, and the doctor said it's all right. This time, it's thanks to the ginseng you helped pick. Your second aunt and uncle are grateful for it." Let's go!"
Zhang Eryong lowered his head and smiled, and said, "It's okay, as long as Second Aunt is well..."
As he spoke, he took the things in Shen Dejian's hands and helped him move them into the guest room.
After tossing, the two of them went back to the yard to enjoy the shade and chat. Shen Dejian said with a smile, "I happened to meet you, or uncle will go looking for you."
"Second Uncle, what do you want me for?" Zhang Eryong ordered a pot of tea, poured a cup, and handed his hands to Shen Dejian.
Shen Dejian looked at his filial son-in-law, smiled with satisfaction, and said, "It's not a big deal, Lan'er said that you helped her find a lot of people when she went to the mountain this time, and she asked me to give you the wages, so that I can give you the money." I paid for your family, by the way, I also asked if you have picked ginseng flowers to mix with ghost grass, if you have, I will give the money to others together!"
Zhang Eryong said, "No need for second uncle, Lan'er helped me find a lot of bird's nests this time, and I sold those bird's nests. In addition to helping her pay back those people's money, I still have leftovers!"
"Oh, is that right? Then the second uncle will save the money that Lanya gave you for you first, and I will give it to you when you two get married!" Shen Dejian was thinking about Er Yong's old lady, if the money Put it in Eryong's hands, maybe let his old mother go to the monkey, it's better to keep it here for safety.
When the two children get married, he will give them the money!
Zhang Eryong didn't speak, bowed his head in silence for a while, and then said: "Second Uncle, I don't want to marry Lan'er!"
"ah?"
Shen Dejian was stunned, and he didn't realize what he meant for a while, "Er Yong, what are you talking about?"
Zhang Eryong lowered his head and repeated, "I want to divorce Lan'er. I came to Jizhou this time to see my second aunt, and to tell you about it.",
"But...but... why?"
Shen Dejian finally heard what he meant, and said in disbelief, "Er Yong, what's wrong? Why did you make such a decision so suddenly?"
"It's not a sudden decision. When I was young, I wanted to be a soldier and a general. When I went to Qingzhou this time, I met the son of my boss once. He was a soldier in Fuzhou. He said that Fuzhou is now recruiting soldiers. I think I want to start a career while I am young, and I don't want to be mediocre for the rest of my life!" Zhang Eryong said firmly.
When he said these words, he somehow remembered, his fists were clenched tightly, and a look of determination appeared on his simple and honest face.
"Nonsense!"
Shen Dejian exclaimed, "You child, don't think about it. You and Lan'er are engaged, and you are my son-in-law. I don't agree with your divorce, and I don't agree with you to serve in the army. I will go to your father later. Go, see if your father will take care of you!"
"Second Uncle, I'm sorry, I've already made my decision!"
Zhang Eryong stood up and bowed deeply to Shen Dejian, "This is not my nonsense, it is a decision I made after careful consideration, please fulfill it!"
"Fulfillment? I'll fulfill your ass, Shen Dejian jumped up, and shouted anxiously: "I came back this time just to discuss with your father and let you and Lan'er get married in advance. It's better for you, do it for me You're a moth, okay, wait for me, boy, I'll go find your father right away, and see if your father broke your legs, and I'll make you stink again! "
