Chapter 12 Chapter 40

Ding Hao left Cheng's mansion and went to the big car shop opened by Ye's car dealership in Xicheng. After asking, he found out that Ding's caravan was located in an abandoned military camp three miles west.Ding Hao cheered up and continued on his way. Once he arrived at the camp and entered the dilapidated gate, he saw a lantern stuck by the well, and a man was pulling water up with a wheel. Just by looking at his figure, he knew it was Xue Liang. Ding Hao exclaimed with great joy: "Smell pig!" Hearing the familiar voice, Xue Liang raised his head and saw a figure walking on the snowy night. When he got a closer look, it was not Ding Hao.Xue Liang was shocked, and as soon as he let go of his hand, the bucket of water fell back into the well with a splash.

Xue Liang ran in front of Ding Hao, grabbed his arm and said nervously: "You idiot, what trouble did you cause outside? It's too bad. The owner of the trouble came to the door. I heard that the woman is the niece of General Guangyuan." , with a team of guards armed with knives and sabers. They are so murderous that they are not afraid of people. If you are caught by her, there will be no good fruit to eat. Before no one finds out, you should flee back to Bazhou. He reached into his bosom, groped for a long time, grabbed a handful of copper coins and said: "These are all rewarded by Miss Lu, I only have so much here, you take them all."

The lantern on the side of the roller pile swayed gently in the wind, and the face of Xue Liang who was standing sideways was also half hidden. On that simple and honest face, it was full of sincere concern and worry.Ding Hao's heart felt warm, he held Xue Liang's big cold hand, slowly pushed it back, and said softly: Brother, you keep this money, don't waste it, save it to marry a good wife, brother is fine, you don't have to worry. really all right? It's really all right! Seeing his relaxed expression, Xue Liang picked up the money, rubbed his nose and said, "It's good that it's okay. When the girl comes during the day, it's really scarier than the arrest by the officials."By the way, aren't you recuperating in Puji Temple? Why did you come here by yourself?Are you cured?How did you offend that young lady?

Ding Hao said with a smile: These things are a long story, let's talk about them slowly when we go back.Come on, let's get the water up first. Carrying a bucket of water, the two went back to Xue Liang's residence. They saw some Min Zhuang who hadn't rested. They were both surprised and happy when they saw Ding Hao. The reason for offending Miss Tang is one of concern. After traveling all the way, Ding Hao has already established his prestige in the hearts of these farmers. Ding Hao's heart was very warm, and the smile on his face also bloomed, and he went forward again, under the eaves, Guanshi Liu was walking ponderously, Ding Hao had just finished greeting a man, turned his head and saw him, and couldn't help smiling, Just as he raised his hand to say hello, Ding Hao's smile froze when he saw Guanshi Liu squeaked behind the pillar in the corridor.

He didn't stop, and after he and Xue Liang walked past the house carrying a bucket of water, a little understanding came to his mind: Miss Tang came to look for him aggressively today, and Tang Yanyan is the niece of Guangyuan General Cheng Shixiong Son.Guangyuan is still under the influence of the feudal town. What is a feudal town?Even if these warlords have independent judicial power, in Guangyuan, even if Ding Hao was beaten to death by Miss Tang, he might not be able to sue people for their lives. Thinking of how harmonious the two of them got along along the way, Ding Hao couldn't help but feel sour. The world is so cold and people's hearts are warm and cold. When a gust of wind came, Ding Hao shrunk his neck subconsciously. What he felt at this time was not the coldness of the wind, but the desolation of human nature.

Back at Xue Liang's residence, I saw Feng Dazhangbian was also here, wearing a sheepskin jacket, sitting next to the stove and baking steamed buns. He was very happy to see him arrive, so he asked a few words about the situation after his farewell, and learned that he was running around He hadn't eaten for a long time, so Feng Dazhang hurriedly took a large bowl, poured boiling water, tore a few pieces of dried meat and soaked it in, and handed him two deliciously baked steamed buns, and said with a smile: What's the matter? Let’s talk after we’ve had a full stomach, haha ​​I’m talking about Xiao Ding, it’s only been two days since I realized that you can’t stand my snoring, so just say it, it’s not you who can’t save face and suffer?You don't have to worry, the man won't sleep with you on the kang tonight, hahaha

The three were chatting and laughing, two steamed buns and a bowl of dried meat soaked in water were swallowed by Ding Hao.He was really hungry that day, knowing that the steamed buns would expand his stomach, and he was full, so he couldn't help but pick up the third one. At this moment, someone shouted loudly: "Guan Shi Ding, Guan Shi Ding!" , are you here? Following the sound, a man opened the door and walked in. When he saw Ding Hao, he was overjoyed: "Guan Ding, you're really here. Are you feeling better?" Ding Hao recognized this man, he was also a servant of Ding's compound, his name was Wu Wei, and everyone used to call him dumb, but Ding Yuluo relied heavily on him along the way, everyone called him Ding in charge, and Wu Wei followed suit. He also changed his name to call him in charge, he is a very responsible farmer, stood up quickly and smiled and said: I just arrived, and I feel much better.

That's good, that's good.Wu Wei saw that Feng Dazhang was also there, so he bowed to him, called Mr. Feng as a courtesy, and then said to Ding Hao: "Miss is very happy to hear that you are back, and ask the young one to tell Guan Ding to talk about it." Woolen cloth. Ding Yuluo couldn't come, so Ding Hao was going too. He thought it was getting late, and the news of his return might not be publicized. He planned to rest for one night and go to see Ding Yuluo tomorrow morning. Since Ding Yuluo sent someone to come Calling him, he put down the steamed bun, and said to Feng Dazhangbian and Xue Liang: I'm going to see the eldest lady.

A lamp like a bean, Ding Yu fell under the lamp and lingered for a long time, with a hint of worry between his brows. At this moment, Wu Wei called out at the door: Miss, Steward Ding is here. oh?Ding Yuluo raised her brows lightly, and said in a quick voice: "Quickly invite Guanshi Ding to come in." Ding Hao lifted the curtain and entered the room.This is an abandoned military barracks, all the buildings are of the same pattern, as soon as you enter the door, there is a kang, and the two rooms on the left and right are still paved, but because this room is lived by Miss Ding, so when you enter this room, there is a discussion A place to receive guests.There was a kang table on the kang table, an oil lamp and a cup of tea on the kang table, and Ding Yuluo stood in front of the lamp. Even though the light was dim, it could be seen that her beauty had diminished a lot.

Ding Hao met the eldest lady.Ding Hao entered the door and gave a long salute. Sit down, no need to be polite.Ding Yuluo waved his hands, turned back and sat down on the side of the kang table, supporting the case and tilting his head, looking at him like a bird, looking at him and saying: Are you cured? Ding Hao sat next to the edge of the kang, smiled and said: Miss Lao is concerned, I just caught a cold, recuperated in the temple for a day, soaked in a hot spring, sweated, and now I have recovered. Um!Ding Yuluo nodded slightly: That's good.Let me ask you, did you offend Miss Tang?

Ding Hao was stunned, thinking of Liu Shiyi's reaction just now, the warmth in his heart was swept away. He looked carefully at Ding Yuluo's nervous expression, and a chill surged in his heart: Is the eldest lady also avoiding the plague god?That's okay, I'm planning to return to Bazhou after this matter, and leave with my mother.Ding Tingxun regarded my mother and son as thorns in his eyes, presumably he didn't care about releasing a house slave.What I have done along the way, I have done my best to your Ding family. From now on, we will break up and go our separate ways. Ding Hao's voice hardened, and he said coldly: Yes, the villain really offended Miss Tang. Ding Yuluo anxiously said: "Where do you start with such nonsense, you are recuperating in the temple well, why did you meet her?"How to feud with her?I asked her, if she didn't tell me, and you look like this, it's confusing, how can you know what's going on? Ding Hao said coldly: Miss, don't ask any more questions, this matter has nothing to do with it. Ding Yuluo stood up abruptly and said angrily: You Meeting Ding Hao's cold gaze, she softened again, and said with a stampede: "What is it, at least you have to let me understand." Ding Hao took a deep breath and said proudly: I was recuperating in the temple, and I saw a man sneaking around, so I followed him out of curiosity, not thinking that the man was a thief who sneaked into the back temple to seek money.I followed behind, but found a bathroom by mistake. I was confused for a while, and stopped to watch a female family member of the Dharma protector Tanyue take a bath. Ding Yuluo's almond eyes widened, and he lost his voice: Then the woman who is taking a bath is Miss Tang? Exactly! Ding Yuluo kept a trace of luck and said: You didn't see anything, did you? Seeing her surprised, Ding Hao felt a burst of joy in his heart.Ever since he knew that Ding Tingxun was mean, ungrateful, hypocritical and unrighteous, Ding Hao never thought about having any family relationship with him.He tried his best along the way, not only to enrich his experience, but also to improve his situation in the Ding family.The ultimate goal of improving my situation in Ding's family is to fly out of the Ding's compound forever when the wings are hardened, to escape from the cage one day, and let me fly as high as the sky. Now it seems that the original steady plan has to be advanced, and it is Miss Ding, the only one in the Ding family who cares for him, who forces him to make this decision, which makes him especially distressed. There was a sneering smile in the corner of his mouth, and he said lightly: I see, not only her waist, back, and thighs, but even her and me. You you alas!The bitterness on Ding Yuluo's face became even stronger. She hurriedly walked around the room twice, and murmured: So it was for such a thing.What can I do? She stopped suddenly, gave Ding Hao a hard look, then took out two ingots of silver from her sleeve, put them in Ding Hao's hand, and said angrily: "It's your fault too, why are you so ungrateful? Girls can see it at will." ?Alas, it's too late to say anything now. Although our food has arrived, depending on the situation, General Guangyuan will not give up because of our delay.Although there is no danger of life now, the business of selling military rations alone is very likely to be hopeless. In addition to the matter of Miss Tang, I think we have to go back in three or two days.Take these two ingots of silver with you, leave early tomorrow morning, temporarily go to a village outside the city to find a place to live, and when we return, if you stay far away, Miss Tang will not be able to find you, and your anger will gradually dissipate , can she still pursue to Bazhou perseveringly? What?Ding Hao held the two ingots of silver ingots and was stunned for a while. Why did the development of the situation go against his expectation? With two ingots of silver in his sleeves, Ding Hao was walking on the way back to his residence. In a trance, he didn't notice that Guanshi Liu was coming from the other side of the road. Xiang Ding Yuluo's residence. Ding Hao lowered his head and stepped on the snow step by step. The slight creaking sound was particularly clear in the quiet moonlight, like a pebble thrown into the water, causing ripples in his heart.With the hands in his sleeves, he gently stroked the smooth surface of the silver, as if filtering his heart into gentle water. He suddenly stopped and looked up at the bright moon in the sky. The moonlight was like frost, shining on his face. There was a cold feeling on his face. Ding Hao regained consciousness, and suddenly seemed to have decided on something. He let out a breath, turned around resolutely, and strode towards Ding Yuluo's residence.
