Chapter 24

As soon as Pei Xingzhi received the news from the boy, he hurried to the back mountain of Nanxun thatched cottage.

He has an agreement with Pei Shuo. When he studies in the thatched cottage, if he has something to find, he will naturally arrive at the agreed place in the fastest time through a secret signal.

Houshan waterfall, which was originally a picturesque place, has lush water and grass on the lake, reflects the maple trees on the bank, and leaps out of the white waterfall in the air, just like big beads and small beads falling on the jade plate, jumping and splashing on the lake, vaguely showing a three-color rainbow.

But now, the water has dried up, and only the water traces left by mountains and stones prove that it once had a spectacular scenery.

When Pei Xingzhi arrived, he saw Pei Shuo boxing by the lake. A red maned horse was tied to a maple tree and his head was down eating grass.

The wind is generated by the tiger, with an aura. Even the fallen leaves are inevitable. They are involved in his circle and dance in the air for a long time.

When the wind blows, it hurts on your face. It's like wild grass on the ridge. It's tenacious and can't be pulled off. When the strong wind blows suddenly, it accidentally hits your skin, like being whipped by a slender whip. Before long, red scars appear on your skin.

Is this the effect of Pei Shuo's boxing?

Don't get close. Pei Xingzhi also knows that it's not appropriate to get close now. Pei Shuo is in a terrible mood.

He is the eldest son of the founding marquis. When he grew up, he became the founding marquis in the future.

Therefore, he was different from them since childhood. Pei Shuo practiced martial arts and they studied literature. After all, they were not the same people.

Looking at his fierce momentum, it seemed that Pei Shuo and his uncle's virtual shadow overlapped together. Pei Xingzhi clearly recognized the gap between them at the moment——

However, what's the matter? He is still the person Pei Shuo trusts. Pei Shuo listens to his words, doesn't he.

This guy was born with wind and water. He's so good... That people want to destroy him.

"Wonderful." Pei Xingzhi saw that he was coming to an end. The leaves wandering in the air suddenly fell to the ground and clapped close. "I've only been back for a few days, and you've had trouble. Tell me."

He lifted up his robe and sat casually on the stone on the bank, listening attentively.

"A letter from home." Pei Shuo reluctantly and quickly explained the matter between his lips. His voice was very low and almost inaudible.

Pei Shuo doesn't know that Pei Xingzhi wrote back to make a small report.

Pei Xingzhi couldn't hear him clearly, but it didn't prevent him from guessing. After counting his fingers, the reply was a matter of one or two days. He suddenly asked him out, but he was depressed and punched. His uncle must have scolded him in the letter.

Pei Xingzhi smiled and patted Pei Shuo on the shoulder to comfort him.

"Don't take the reprimands of the elders to heart. They always have a long talk about how to treat you. When you are alive, sing about wine. Let's go. I'll buy you a drink and calm down. "

Pei Xingzhi took Pei Shuo back to his place and made a jar of peach blossom wine under the peach blossom tree. Most of them were for Pei Shuo to drink. He persuaded him to drink.

"... Nanxun county is so good. The mountain is high and the emperor is far away. You are the boss in other hospitals. Why should you go back to see your stepmother's face?" He advised Pei Shuo.

"You have a point." Pei Shuo's face is even redder than rouge. He burps when he speaks, and his eyes are everywhere. He can't turn the focus.

"You're getting drunk."

Pei Shuo waved his hand and insisted that I was not drunk.

"Miss Jiang You brought back..." Pei Xingzhi saw that his eyes were blurred and half asleep, so he mentioned ah Yao a little.

Pei Shuo replied vaguely, "ah Yao, she's fine."

Pei Xingzhi continued, "this girl has a lot of heart and mind. It's not good."

He is anxious. He can dislike that ah Yao is a "bad bamboo shoot", but he does not allow others to speak ill of her. He is anxious with whoever says it, even his brother!

"Nonsense! You have more eyes! You didn't contact her. How do you know she's bad! "

Finally, Pei Shuo thought his statement was wrong and added: "you'd better not contact her. She's too violent and will hit people. Your little body will be unbearable."

“……”

I always feel something wrong!

Pei Xingzhi helped her forehead, "that girl is full of bad water. She came back with you just to rely on us. You have to be careful... Don't be busy denying me, brother. Calm down and think about whether she has been too attached to her recently. She can't accommodate everything. Where's the son of founding Hou, who laughs and scolds and is wantonly happy on the streets of Beijing, When I came back to live, I only saw a follower circling around the girl! "

Pei Shuo, calm down.

On the way back, he led the red maned horse, and Pei Xingzhi's words echoed in his mind. He repeatedly asked whether he was too accommodating to her and walked around her.

"Help! You let go of me! "

Suddenly, the girl's cry for help came. Pei Shuo didn't want to pay attention to it. There were Constable yamen servants in Nanxun county. He didn't go up to join the fun as a child“ Flower patter, you let go of me! I'd rather die than go with you! "

And the man's voice scolded.

Shoot flowers!

Human traffickers!

Pei Shuo's brain flashed key words. Maybe he drank peach blossom wine and was slightly drunk. He didn't fully wake up. He turned over and got on his horse in two or three times. After a few steps, he found the source of the distress signal.

The gate of the teahouse is surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside the common people.

The second floor of the restaurant opposite is also crowded, and there are definitely not too many people watching the excitement.

Pei Shuo was sitting on a tall horse. Unfortunately, he was a little shorter. He could barely see the scene at the door of the teahouse through the back of his head.

A little girl of about 7 or 8 years old was wearing a paddy field skirt, which was stitched and sewed with rags of various colors. The paddy field skirt was gray and could not distinguish the color. She held tightly to the pillar in front of the teahouse. Her face was also black. Under the erosion of tears, two contrasting skin colors were exposed.

Next to her, there was a thin man swearing, "what are you looking at? The girl is awkward. Do you want to join in the fun of other people's housework?"

But no one wants to leave.

The little girl cried and howled: "he is not my father. My parents died early and sent me to a good family to be a child's daughter-in-law before they died. He suffered a thousand dollars. He abducted me while I was walking around the temple with my little husband and wanted to sell me. Fortunately, I took the opportunity to escape. I begged all villagers to be kind and save my life. I will be a cow and a horse to repay me!"

The crowd laughed at them: "you are a funny girl, you are a child bride and you are being kidnapped. You want to come out of the registered residence, you can give others a cow, or you need to let the main family take risks to accept you." or the master has to do your registered residence well, so that you can get rid of your child's daughter-in-law's fate.

The little girl's face turned pig liver. She really couldn't respond to her and cry again.

"Howl what howl, your master sold you to me with three Guan money. It's my man. Don't you come with me?" The thin man ran out of patience and pulled out another whip around his waist: "believe it or not, I'll whip you!"

When he raised the whip, the little girl closed her eyes in despair and everyone sighed.

A figure sprang out.

Grabbed the whip, "slow down."
