MTL - I Became the Prime Minister’s Adored Wife after Transmigrating-Chapter 223 How clever!
Chapter 223 So smart!
"You are harming him by defending him like this!" Shen Dashan blushed angrily, and growled angrily, "No matter what reason he Shen Zhang has, it never became an excuse for him to go in and out of Fengyue Tower!"
After Shen Dashan fetched the rattan, he looked coldly at Shen Zhang who was kneeling in the middle of the main room, his usually gentle eyes were full of sharpness, "Stretch out your hand!"
Shen Erlang, who was kneeling straight on the ground, spread out his palm silently.
The moment a rattan stick fell on his palm, there was a dull sound.
The other people who were watching couldn't bear to look directly.
Again and again, after a while Shen Zhang's palm was swollen beyond sight.
Shen Zhang frowned tightly, with tears in his eyes.
"Father, stop beating!" Second Wife Shen hurriedly hugged Shen Erlang, feeling extremely distressed.
"The second child is a craftsman, and he will rely on his hands to make money in the future. If you really hit his hands in a bad way..." Zhao Lanhua hastily grabbed Shen Dashan's arm, and pulled out the stick from his hand. long vine.
"Father, mother," Shen Erlang stood up slowly with the support of Shen Ersao, "My son has entered and exited Fengyue Tower. This is a fact, so my son accepts the punishment."
"Qingqing," Shen Erlang thought for a while, looked sideways at Shen Ersao beside him, and explained in a gentle tone, "I have never done anything to apologize to you."
"Erlang, I believe in you!"
Shen Erlang smiled gratefully, and then began to tell the whole thing.
"When Master took me to work at the home of Yuanwai Wu in Leishan County, I happened to meet a brother named Wu Minggang. Brother Wu is very skillful with his hands. He is best at carving. The furniture he carved has exquisite patterns. Fashionable."
"More importantly, Angkor is very enthusiastic and takes good care of us younger generations. He has taught me a lot. I even broke a piece of huanghuali high table once, and Angkor helped to carve a delicate one on it. Patterns are rescued."
"After talking with Brother Ang, I found out that he already had a sweetheart, and his sweetheart was his fellow countryman, that is, the Phoenix butterfly girl who was forced to flow into Fengyue Tower. They had already made an agreement. Once he has saved enough money for the redemption, he will help the girl Phoenix Die to redeem her body, and then go back to her hometown to live together."
"But Brother Ang passed away unexpectedly... The county magistrate made the conclusion that he was drunk and accidentally fell into the moat and drowned."
When this matter was mentioned, Shen Zhang's heart was filled with grief.
"When I was helping Brother Ang to pack up his belongings, I happened to see some things he wanted to entrust to Swallow Die, so I went to Fengyue Tower and met that Swallow Die girl."
"But that day, Miss Savior Die was extremely panicked. She couldn't help but put a burden in my arms, and then someone kicked me out." Shen Zhang frowned, and said in a deep voice, "I always I feel that this matter is full of weirdness. When I originally wanted to ask Miss Savior Die for clarification, Miss Swallow Die entrusted a beggar to send me a letter. In the letter, she asked me to keep it safe. burden, and told me that I must never set foot in Fengyue Tower again."
"Then what about the things that the swallowtail girl entrusted to you?"
"I lost it." Shen Zhang pinched his brows with some annoyance, "Father, do you still remember that you, your elder brother and your third sibling picked me up years ago? I accidentally fell into a deep puddle, If you hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid I would have been in trouble. And the things that Miss Phoenix Butterfly gave me also fell into that deep hole."
Shen Erlang said very apologetically, "Father, mother, I didn't expect the madam of Fengyuelou to come to my door, I'm sorry."
"This incident seems to reveal weirdness everywhere?" Ji Zhao, who had been sitting by the side and listening, couldn't help but frowned and said, "Second brother, can that big brother Ang know water?"
"I mentioned it earlier for Brother Ang. He lived by a small stream when he was a child, and he learned to swim at a very young age." Shen Zhang shook his head helplessly, "But the conclusion given by the county government is that he Drowning."
"Then second brother, do you still remember what was in the package that the Swallow Butterfly girl gave you?" Shen Yao also realized the unusualness of this matter, and asked curiously.
"Nothing special, but there is a very old booklet." Shen Zhang thought about it carefully, then shook his head, "I don't remember clearly."
"Is there gold, silver and jewelry in the bag?"
"No."
"That's weird," Ji Zhao subconsciously looked at Shen Yao beside him, and frowned, "Just now the old bustard kept saying that the second brother cheated the Swallow Die girl's money, what's going on? "
"No matter what the cause and effect of this matter are, you must solve it within two days." Shen Dashan said with a sullen face and a deep tone.
"Okay." Shen Erlang nodded immediately.
It is really unpleasant to encounter such a farce on the first day of the new year;
However, after Ji Zhao cooked a sumptuous breakfast, the atmosphere obviously eased up.
"Father, try this chicken soup. It has been stewing for several hours." Ji Zhao smiled and scooped up a large bowl of chicken soup and held it in front of Shen Dashan who was frowning and said nothing. "And this fried rice is so crispy. Soaking fried rice in chicken broth will taste even better! Would you like to try it?”
Although Shen Dashan was in a bad mood, seeing the smile on Ji Zhao's face, his mood improved by three points, "Okay, I'll try it."
"There are also these winter bamboo shoots and shrimp dumplings, you should also try them." Ji Zhao said with a smile, "This winter bamboo shoots and shrimp dumplings are amazing, each one is real!"
With the treasure of Ji Zhao, the atmosphere has obviously eased up a lot.
After a warm and pleasant breakfast, Ji Zhao went back to the house, ready to put on the new pair of sheepskin boots that Zhao Lanhua made for her a few days ago.
"A Tao, I'll go with you." Shen Yao pushed open the door, and walked to her side with a smile, with firmness that could not be refused in his gentle tone.
"How do you know I'm going out?" Hearing his voice, Ji Zhao raised his eyes curiously, and there was a little smile in his bright apricot eyes, which was extremely cute.
Shen Yao smiled and said nothing, suddenly possessed himself close to her face.
Ji Zhao felt nervous for no reason, she didn't dare to look directly into his affectionate eyes, "You...what are you doing?"
"A Tao and I share the same mind." Shen Yao suddenly leaned into her ear, exhaling like blue, "So I can think of what A Tao thinks."
"Slick tongue..." Ji Zhao muttered with a light smile.
"Isn't it?" Shen Yao took her hand naturally, and the smile in his eyes deepened.
"Since you're so smart, why don't you guess where I'm going?" Ji Zhao couldn't help raising his eyebrows, with a bit of coquettish tone in his tone.
"The deep depression that almost killed my second brother."
"You're so smart!" Ji Zhao couldn't help pinching his cheek, and praised with a smile.
