Chapter 596 Jia Xu Is Getting Better
The old man said to Zhao Yun: "Hey, I know that the foreigner's family has a treasure map. You ask your grandson to find a way to steal it."
When Wenxuan heard this, he became furious. He glared at the old man and shouted angrily: "Isn't this harming my grandson? How can you take advantage of your grandson!"
Dongfang Hong frowned, looked at Zhao Yun, then looked at the old man, and then said to the old man: "My grandson Xu Dong agrees, which proves that he is not a good bird. Huh, what you did is too much!"
The old man lowered his head with a hint of guilt in his voice.
"Oh, I know I was wrong, and I will never do such a thing again."
Wenxuan looked at the old man, his tone still stern.
"What's the use of knowing you're wrong? You must call your grandson back!"
At this moment, there was a pattering of rain in the yard, accompanied by the rustling of leaves in the wind.
A soaked child appeared at the door, it was Xu Dong.
He was shivering all over, his hair was wet and stuck to his face, and his lips were purple from the cold.
Xu Dong saw the people in the room and said tremblingly: "Grandpa...I..." There was grievance and fear in his voice.
The old man ran over quickly, hugged his grandson, and said distressedly: "Dongdong, what's going on?"
Wenxuan said: "Why are you asking? Get him in quickly."
The old man quickly brought the child in.
Wenxuan quickly brought a clean towel over, and while wiping Xu Dong's hair, he said: "Prodigy, you are suffering, come here and warm yourself up."
Xu Dong stood there shivering, looking at everyone with confused eyes, as if he had not yet recovered from the experience just now.
There was a damp atmosphere in the whole yard, and the rain was still falling, hitting the ground and splashing water.
The master asked Xu Dong, what happened?
Xu Dong sneezed and shook his arms.
"The policemen kicked me out."
The old man was surprised. Did the members of the army discover Sun Tzu's conspiracy?
Xu Dong looked at Zhao Yun and the three others. Although they were a little cold, they were not confused.
He knows that there are some things that cannot be said in front of outsiders.
The old man sighed.
"Child, if you have anything to say, just say it. They already know it."
Xu Dong was shocked.
I really don’t understand, why would grandpa tell outsiders?
Xu Dong said that he didn't have a good impression of him today and asked him to come back quickly and not go to Yuanwai's house from now on.
The implication is that things in the past will not be taken into account.
"Grandpa, I'm very scared, afraid of being discovered."
Anyway, Xu Dong lived a very torturous life there.
So Wenxuan once again criticized the old man for being such a jerk, and handed over all responsibilities to his grandson.
At this moment, the old man had already thought about it.
He hugged his grandson and burst into tears.
"Child, grandpa is sorry for you."
At this moment, his tears were real.
There is still a slight drizzle in the sky, and the rain is much lighter than before. The water on the streets is slowly receding, and the air is filled with a moist atmosphere.
Zhao Yun is ready to leave.
Xu Dong: "Please take me away. I have already guessed the identities of the three of you."
Wenxuan: "Oh? Tell me, why did you say that, and why did you follow us?"
Xu Dong: "Hey, although I am young, I admire Prime Minister Xi Yu very much. I think you must be related to the Prime Minister."
Xu Dong said weakly: "I have a cold now and it is really difficult to make the trip. Can you three stay and set off with me tomorrow?"
His grandfather sat by the bed, looked at Xu Dong with a worried look, shook his head and said, "What kind of status does the Prime Minister have, how can he take in a kid like you?"
Wenxuan stood aside and had this intention. She said softly: "Xu Dong, as long as you are willing, I can take you away."
"But I just went to Yuanwai's house and did something wrong. I'm afraid it's inappropriate to make this request now."
Wenxuan smiled and said: "As long as you can correct your mistakes, everything will be easy." There was sincerity and encouragement in his eyes.
Xu Dong nodded firmly and said, "I will definitely change my ways and never let you down again!"
Zhao Yun looked at Xu Dong with a relieved smile on his face and said, "In that case, then I will stay."
After hearing this, the old man was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear. He put his hands on his hips and laughed loudly: "Okay, okay! I will host a banquet for you tonight, let's celebrate!"
The old man laughed and cried. In fact, he was very reluctant to part with his grandson. But in order to give my grandson a good home, I am willing to listen to him.
Song Shuwen sat quietly by Jia Xu's bed, his eyes showing a hint of exhaustion, but also full of concern.
Suddenly, Jia Xu's eyes slowly opened. He looked around blankly and found that he was in a completely unfamiliar environment.
Wen Liang was the first to notice that Jia Xu had woken up, with a look of surprise on his face. He quickly stepped forward and asked softly: "You're finally awake. How do you feel?"
Jia Xu stood up quickly. His eyes were full of confusion and confusion. He frowned and asked, "Where is this? Why am I here?"
Wen Liang quickly replied: "Sir, don't panic. This is the place we specially placed to save you. You were injured earlier, but you are fine now."
Jia Xu's face was still blank. He rubbed his forehead and tried to remember what happened before.
Jia Xu's face suddenly turned pale, and his body trembled involuntarily. His eyes were filled with fear and uneasiness.
Because he remembered the cellar. I remembered the witch.
Seeing this, Wen Liang frowned and asked with concern: "Mr. Jia, what exactly happened to you? Have you remembered it?"
Jia Xu's lips trembled slightly.
He bit his lower lip, shook his head, and whispered: "I...I don't want to mention it again."
His eyes were evasive, as if he didn't dare to look at Wen Liang.
Fang looked at Jia Xu from the side, sighed helplessly and said, "That's all, if you don't want to say it, just don't say it."
Wen Liang smiled and said to Jia Xu: "Mr. Jia, this is Song Shuwen, a famous doctor beside the Prime Minister. I went through all the trouble to invite him to treat you." There was something in his tone. Very proud.
After hearing this, a trace of surprise flashed in Jia Xu's eyes. He looked at Song Shuwen, nodded, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Song." His voice was a little weak.
Wen Liang continued: "When I found you, sir, you were in a well! I worked hard and worked with the villagers to rescue you." There was a look of emotion on his face.
Jia Xu looked at Wen Liang gratefully, clasped his hands in his fists, and said in a trembling voice: "Brother Wen, Jia Xu will never forget this kindness. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will definitely repay you."
A strange flash suddenly appeared in Jia Xu's eyes, and he stared straight at Song Shuwen, as if he was examining something.
Song Shuwen felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze, with a look of embarrassment on his face.
He secretly wondered: "Why is this person staring at me like this?"
Jia Xu was silent for a moment, then slowly asked: "Mr. Song, do you know me?"
Song Shuwen shook his head and answered honestly: "Sir and I have never met before. We just met today."
Jia Xu's brows wrinkled slightly, as if he was thinking about something.
Jia Xu lowered his head, thinking that it would be best if Song Shuwen didn't recognize me.
There was a cunning look in his eyes, and he secretly made up his mind not to reveal his identity.
Song Shuwen looked at Jia Xu with a puzzled look on his face.
Jia Xu took a deep breath and sighed: "I am penniless now and really can't repay you, not even your life-saving grace. Why don't I stay and do something."
Wen Liang quickly waved his hand and said with a smile: "Sir, you're welcome, you can just go home, don't worry about it."
In the room, the sun shines through the windows and shines softly on people, but it cannot dispel the confusion in Jia Xu's heart.
Jia Xu frowned and looked ahead confusedly.
But next time, I don’t know where to go.
Song Shuwen smiled slightly and looked at everyone with gentle eyes.
"I should go back too."
Wen Liang frowned, looking worried: "The medical bills haven't been paid yet."
Song Shuwen waved his hand with a bold look on his face.
"No, no, no. You are a good person. You rescued an unknown person, and you also traveled such a long way to call me here, so I am willing to treat you for free."
Wen Liang and Fang faced Song Shuwen at the same time, with expressions of gratitude on their faces.
In the yard of Wenliang's house, the sun shines on the ground, reflecting on the other horse.
The breeze blew gently, bringing a bit of coolness.
Song Shuwen looked at Jia Xu, then patted the horse's neck, with a free and easy smile on his face.
"Then I'll leave first."
Jia Xu frowned slightly, her eyes a little confused.
Next... where to go? You can't rely on Wenliang's family...
Wen Liang came over and looked at Jia Xu with concern in his eyes.
"Mr. Jia, do you have a home to go back to?"
Jia Xu lowered his head slightly and smiled sheepishly.
"Well... that's right."
Wen Liang pointed to the horse in the yard, smiled and said, "Then you can ride this horse. This is the horse I rode when I went to Youzhou."
Jia Xu looked at Wen Liang gratefully, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"Thank you, Brother Wenliang. You'll be welcome then."
Wen Liang waved his hand and said with a smile: "You're welcome, just be careful on the road."
On the other side, in the room of the Youzhou County Government Office, the light was dim, and there was a depressing atmosphere in the air.
Xu Mingming sat on the chair, his body trembling slightly, his face full of tears, his eyes full of sadness and despair.
Woohoo...I'm really sad...
Wang Liang frowned, with a worried look on his face.
"Xu Tomorrow, please stop crying, things will eventually pass."
Xi Yu crossed his arms, looked at Xu Mingming calmly, and said slowly: "Don't stop him, let him vent it out."
Xu tomorrow's cry will be even more miserable.
The whole person seemed to be immersed in pain and unable to extricate himself.
"What should I do...what should I do..."
Xi Yu said: "Maybe it will be better after he has cried enough."
Xu Tomorrow raised his head, his eyes were red, and he said with a grievance: "I am regarded as a person who does not do his job properly in the village, and my parents are also very angry with me. When I walk in the village, many people are sarcastic and sarcastic towards me. I My wife was also affected. She quarreled with me every day. Now she went back to her parents’ house in anger. I feel that I am really a very unfortunate person.”
Xiyu couldn't help laughing when he heard what he said.
"Haha, I thought it was a big deal, but it's just a small matter."
Xu Mingtian looked at Xi Yu and smiled, and the grievance in his heart became even worse, his brows frowned more tightly, and his face showed an expression of grievance.
"Prime Minister, how can this be a small matter? I am already so painful, how can you still laugh, you really lack love!"
Xi Yu put away his smile, his expression was serious, and he looked at Xu Mingtian seriously.
"I was just joking just now, I will take this issue seriously. Then I ask you, why do everyone think so?"
Xu Mingtian raised his head and looked at Xi Yu, revealing a trace of helplessness and confusion in his eyes.
"I like to write and draw, often immersed in fantasy, and write some stories, but because no one can appreciate me, I burn them myself after I finish writing."
Xi Yu frowned and looked at Xu Mingtian thoughtfully: "So that's it..."
Xu Mingtian lowered his head, his expression was depressed, and his voice was low: "I also want others to see my work, but..."
Xi Yu roughly understood this person's character.
Maybe his spiritual world is particularly rich, and he rarely interacts with people.
So maybe he is a little lonely.
"But just because of this, you shouldn't seek death." Wang Liang said.
But Xiyu understood that he did this to attract everyone's attention.
But at this time, Xiyu suddenly had an idea that he should pay attention to this person.
Maybe he should use this person. But I don't know if this is appropriate.
Because if everyone has troubles, what should I do if I use them?
Wang Liang saw that Xiyu seemed to have something to say.
"Prime Minister, what do you think I should do in my current situation?" Xu Mingtian said.
Xiyu frowned and tapped the table with his fingers, thinking.
A few days ago, he thought of starting a serial novel in the newspaper, and he originally planned to write it himself.
But I'm afraid I don't have time...
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, as if he had thought of a good idea. Looking at Xu Mingtian, he asked eagerly: "Don't you know how to write stories? Can I let you try it?" There was an expectant look on his face.
Xu Mingtian was stunned at first, then scratched his head and said with a smile: "Of course I can try, but what do the prime minister's people want to do?"
Xi Yu told him not to worry about anything, just write.
Wang Liang prepared paper and pen at this time.
"Okay, start writing now, and it must be written brilliantly." Xi Yu said.
After a while, Xu Mingtian handed the written story to Xi Yu with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
Xi Yu took the story and read it carefully. His expression gradually became focused, sometimes showing a look of surprise, and sometimes nodding slightly.
After reading, Xi Yu raised his head, looked at Xu Mingtian, with a satisfied smile on his face, and said: "This story is good!"
Then, Xi Yu showed the story to Wang Liang.
Wang Liang looked at the story, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he exclaimed: "Wow, this story is really very attractive!"
Xi Yu smiled at Xu Mingtian and said: "I have my own idea of running a newspaper. I think we can open a novel serial column. Moreover, I can also tell you about the situation of newspapers and printing. I wonder if you are interested in this?"
Xi Yu gave a general account of the situation of the newspaper.
For Xu Mingtian, this is really a good thing that he has been looking for. He has been depressed these days. Everyone treats him like a street rat. Now someone has abandoned the olive branch. Why shouldn't he be happy?
"Prime Minister, I am willing." After that, he knelt down to Xi Yu.
Xi Yu immediately helped him up.
"Okay, then you just do it well, and don't try to die again in the future."
This time, Xu Mingtian finally found confidence.
Xu Mingtian stood up, with a firm light in his eyes.
"Prime Minister, thank you for your trust and support. I will definitely work hard and live up to your expectations."
It must be done well.
Let those who look down on me take a good look at whether I have the ability.
Xi Yu patted Xu Mingtian on the shoulder and smiled encouragingly: "I believe you must have this ability, so make good use of your talent."
Xu Mingtian nodded slightly, with a confident smile on his face.
He secretly made up his mind to work hard on this novel serial column so that more people would like his stories.
"Then you can create your own stories next. If necessary, I will get you a room in the county government office."
This was of course said to Wang Liang.
Wang Liang said that of course there was no problem.
"Thank you, Prime Minister, thank you, County Magistrate."
In the following days, Xu Mingtian devoted himself to the creation of novels. His stories became more and more popular, and the sales of newspapers also rose steadily.
Of course, all this is a later story.
Jia Xu rode his horse with a solemn face, his heart was at a loss, and he didn't know where to go.
He let the horse gallop freely, and he had run a long way without knowing it.
At this moment, the sky was gradually dyed orange-red by the sunset glow, and the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the earth, covering the surrounding scenery with a layer of soft light.
Jia Xu touched his stomach and felt a surge of hunger.
He thought to himself: "What should I do? I don't have a penny, and even the horse is probably hungry."
He looked at the well-behaved horse, and a trace of shame rose in his heart.
Jia Xu sighed helplessly, thinking about the solution in his heart.
An idea suddenly flashed through Jia Xu's mind.
He remembered that he spent the night when he killed the shopkeeper in the temple.
Jia Xu thought to himself.
Why not find a temple for the time being, maybe the kind monks there will take me in.
But I didn't know where the temple was, so I had to move forward.
After a while, I finally saw pedestrians and found out the direction of the temple.
He patted the horse's back gently and said, "Don't worry, we will find a place in a while. I promise to make you full and strong." (End of this chapter)
