He didn't ask Zhang Yang whether he told Mr. Hong Wu about the four bronze birds, because he didn't need to ask, he knew that the boy wouldn't tell.
After all, Mr. Tang felt very relieved when he saw the children growing up.
Zhang Yang nodded, "Yes, the Prince of Changshan is now in the town with the Fifth Master Hong. Perhaps he is more urgent about the Bronze Bird, so the Fifth Master ordered me to come back again. This time I must find the Bronze Bird."
"Although I don't know why they don't want to make a big splash for the time being, but I feel that if I can't find it again this time, the Fifth Master will probably send people to search the mountain without even thinking about it."
If you really search the mountain and leave no trace of soil, you will inevitably find the four bronze birds in the iron pine forest. Zhang Yang's encounter this time meant to find out what the bronze birds were, but he also meant to remind them.
"So, I want you, Grandpa, to come to terms with me. If you can trust me, can you explain this to me? What is this bronze bird used for? What does it have to do with our village?"
Mr. Tang listened, thought for a long time, and finally said: "It's not that Grandpa doesn't believe me and won't tell you, but it's a big deal, and the fewer people know about it, the better. If you know the details, it won't be good for you, so
I won’t tell you this.”
"As for Mr. Hong Wu sending someone to look for the bronze bird, if you can really find the one he asked you to find, there is no harm in handing it over. If you can't find it, I don't think he will blame you for it."
"In addition, you are worried that Mr. Hong Wu will send people to search the mountain in the end. I know this, so you don't have to worry. As long as Grandpa is here, all the twenty-four households in Songshan Village will be fine. Grandpa only hopes that you can also
As always, just help Grandpa keep the secret of Iron Pine Forest."
Zhang Yang listened to Mr. Tang's words and was swept by his meaningful eyes. He had a very delusional feeling in his heart, thinking that the grandpa knew that they had found the bronze bird.
So, is it okay to hand over this copper bird?
If you hand over this bronze bird and abandon the car to protect the commander, you don't have to worry about Mr. Hong Wu searching the mountain again?
Somehow, Zhang Yang felt that this was what the grandpa meant.
He silently kept it in his mind, thinking that after today's trip, he still couldn't learn the secret of Bronze Bird, but it was a matter of great importance to the people of the world and the village, so he could only keep this secret.
Loyalty is important, but here, filial piety and benevolence are also important.
He can still tell which is light and which is serious.
He is no longer a child.
"I understand, Grandpa, don't worry, I have a sense of propriety."
Zhang Yang stood up and prepared to say goodbye.
Meng, Tang Mingde's daughter-in-law, who was coming out of the east room to make lunch, saw Zhang Yang in the hall, and was a little confused. When did this man come? They didn't hear the sound.
The embroidery work was too urgent today, and we had to hurry up and get twenty taels of silver after the embroidery was done, so she, her mother-in-law, and her daughter were busy too seriously.
Meng immediately smiled and walked up, "Zhang Yang is here, and he hasn't poured you any water. Just sit down. Auntie will start cooking soon. Can you stay and eat?"
Zhang Yang said goodbye to Mr. Tang, walked out and waved his hand: "No need to trouble Auntie, I'm going home!"
With that said, he quickly walked out of the Tang family courtyard.
Meng was curious and asked in the main room, "Sir, what does this kid Zhang Yang want to do here?"
Mr. Tang smiled and said, "It's okay, you just came to talk to me, an old man."
After Meng heard this, she didn't ask any more questions. Her grandfather was kind, and the children of this generation in the village respected him, just like their own grandfather, not to mention that he would join in for fun and relieve the old man's boredom.
The children in Shitou often send trinkets to their grandfather. It’s not surprising that they would give away a handful of Niaodanshan fruits whenever they got them.
…
Zhang Yang walked all the way out of the village and did not go up the gentle slope, but went straight back to the long river.
At this time, there was a busy period of work on the bank of the river. Zhang Yang arrived and helped with the work. After this period of work, Song Qiu made lunch. It was very hot in the afternoon and no one passed by.
Got some free time.
Old Yuan and Lihua lay on the table and fell asleep quickly. Zhang Yang pointed to the side and asked Song Qiu to follow him. Then he told Song Qiu what happened to Mr. Tang.
"My grandpa will not harm us. He said it is a great secret, so we must bite the bullet and keep it. Otherwise, something will really happen to our village, which is not what we want to see."
"Since you think Grandpa is implying that it's okay to hand over the bronze bird if you find it, then you should hand it over this time. Otherwise, it will be difficult for Mr. Hong to explain it. And if you hand over this one, you can't return it.
What can you know?"
Zhang Yang's eyes lit up as he listened, "Ah Qiu, you are so smart. Why didn't I think of that?"
He handed over the bronze bird and completed the errand. Mr. Hong Wu decided to rely more on him. And if this one was found, would Mr. Hong look for others?
When the time comes, he will be closer to the water than to the tower, and he will definitely know a lot of things.
Maybe he could also serve as a spy for the village, reporting the news in advance or something like that.
"Okay, Aqiu, I will do as you say!"
Song Qiu nodded, being stared at by Zhang Yang, and the two of them being so close, she felt awkward after the matter was finished, and quickly stood up and walked away.
But as soon as he moved, a big warm hand grabbed his wrist.
"Aqiu."
Song Qiu's heart skipped a beat. Seeing Zhang Yang's expression, she had a bad intuition. She quickly jumped up and said, "Oh, the herbal tea was sold out this morning. I forgot to boil the water."
Then immediately walked over there.
Zhang Yang's hands were empty and when he saw the person running away, he couldn't help but sigh.
He was just working up the courage to ask Aqiu.
Hearing that Grandma Yuan wanted to keep Ah Qiu at home to raise a child, he wanted to say that he was willing to marry into the Song family and give her the surname Song when she had a baby.
I wonder if Aqiu cares about him?
But after being evaded like this, the courage he had just summoned collapsed.
Okay, since Aqiu isn't even fourteen yet, he can just wait.
I wish there would be fewer people willing to come to ask for help, or preferably none, so that he would have less to worry about.
It's just that Aqiu is so outstanding.
He is not the only one who is curious about it.
Therefore, he still has to work harder, achieve great success, and save more money, so that he can be worthy of it, right?
Thinking like this, Zhang Yang came over with a smile and said, "Ah Qiu, did she put the money I gave Lihua last time here to save it with you? I have some here, and I won't save it if I put it on my body, so it's you
Let me help you save it."
As he spoke, he handed over a money bag.
Song Qiu's eyebrows twitched, and he subconsciously didn't want to answer it.
Zhang Yang said, "I don't worry about where to put Lihua. I'm running away and I'm afraid of losing it. It's safe to put it here. You can save it. When Lihua gets married, I won't accompany the others, so I'll give her more time."
It’s a lot of money.”
After hearing this, Song Qiu reached out to take it, "Okay."
