This is a typical example of care leading to chaos. Shen Yan was still uneasy despite Shui Sheng's guarantee.
Shen Ziyan was calmer than Shen Yan. He didn't rush forward as hurriedly as Shen Yan, but his pace was not slow at all.
Shuangxi was still looking towards the road, because the sky was a little dark. Shen Ziyan, Shen Yan, and Shui Sheng came close to her, and she could see clearly.
When Shen Yan saw Shuangxi, he sped up and ran for two steps, and then he held Shuangxi in his arms. The warmth in his arms made him feel completely at ease.
"Xi'er, are you okay?" Shen Yan's voice was cold and trembling.
The trembling was of course caused by worry, but the chill was not directed at Shuangxi, but the discovery that Shuangxi's whole body was wet, thinking that Shuangxi must have been wronged at the hands of that short man, and toward the group of bandits who were blocking the road.
Shuangxi reached out and hugged Shen Yan back, and said in a warm voice: "I'm okay, but you...are you okay?" When Shen Yan just ran over, his legs and feet seemed to be not very neat.
"I'm fine, I just twisted my foot." Shen Yan quickly explained after noticing Shuangxi's worried eyes looking at his legs.
After Shen Yan hugged Shuang Xi, he let go of Shuang Xi.
Although he wanted to keep hugging her, there were so many people here and his eldest brother was here, so he really couldn't monopolize Shuangxi. Thinking that his eldest brother must also be eager to make sure Shuangxi was intact.
After Shuangxi left Shen Yan's arms, he walked a few steps forward and stood next to Shen Ziyan. Looking at the tall man, his nose felt a little sore.
She was really frightened just now! What would she do if something happened to Shen Ziyan and Shen Yan?
"Ziyan..." Shuangxi called with a little grievance, his voice a little hoarse because of the tears.
Shen Ziyan chuckled lightly and reached out to touch Shuangxi's head: "Silly girl, why are you crying? My second brother and I just had a fight with someone."
Although Shen Ziyan said it lightly, Shuangxi knew that this was just Shen Ziyan trying to comfort himself. The situation at that time must have been extremely dangerous.
After confirming that Shen Ziyan and Shen Yan were back safely, Shuangxi breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Shui Sheng, who had been standing silently next to him.
At this moment, Shui Sheng was watching the tender reunion of a family that had gone through hardships. It was supposed to be a very touching scene, but for some reason, he felt empty in his heart.
As if he were a superfluous person, he silently watched Xi'er's happiness.
Shuangxi said sincerely to Shuisheng: "Brother Shuisheng, I want to thank you this time."
"You're welcome. Anyone who encounters him will be dealt with." Shuisheng's clear and clean voice came.
"I asked you, little lady, why are you only thanking Shuisheng? Don't forget, I, Ji Qiu, beat away the bad guy who was chasing you." Ji Qiu said teasingly while leaning on the bullock cart.
After hearing this, Shuangxi secretly sighed in his heart, Ji Qiudao is really an interesting person.
Ji Qiu said so. She couldn't help but give him face, right? So she turned around, imitated a lady from a wealthy family, made a blessing, and said with a smile: "Madam Shen family is here to thank Uncle Ji Qiu."
Ji Qiu immediately smiled and said, "I guess you are sensible." Then he straightened his body and walked towards Shuisheng.
"Shui Sheng, let's take care of your business. You should go back quickly. Don't delay the things in the escort office tomorrow." Ji Qiu said to Shui Sheng.
Shuisheng nodded slightly, "Yeah."
It was a coincidence that today, Shui Sheng went home to visit relatives and take a break. However, the escort agency took over a temporary job, and Ji Qiu hurried over to look for Shui Sheng.
So Shui Sheng and Ji Qiu hurried to the town overnight. Otherwise, who would walk to the town at night when it was dark!
Fortunately, Ji Qiu came to look for Shuisheng. Otherwise, the Shen family's money would have been snatched away. Even Shuangxi might have been humiliated. As for the Shen brothers, they would have been beaten.
, I’m afraid it’s indispensable.
Next, the Shen brothers thanked Shui Sheng and Ji Qiu again and again. Shui Sheng seemed a little embarrassed, but Ji Qiu, the big-faced one, accepted the thanks with a smile, looking like he was taking all the credit.
However, no one is disgusted by Ji Qiu's behavior. Such people are narcissistic at most, but they are very kind-hearted and have no thoughts, so they are suitable for being friends.
If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't meet each other often, Shuangxi wouldn't mind making friends with Ji Qiu.
After Shui Sheng and Ji Qiu left, the Shen brothers and Shuang Xi did not dare to stay on this dark road. After all, no one could guarantee whether the group of bandits would leave and come back.
Because the ox cart was running for a long time, it was a little tired. Although a few people were anxious to go home, they did not ride on the ox cart, but walked...
Of course, Shuangxi sat on the bullock cart, while the Shen brothers walked.
Even so, the ox-cart was still moving slowly and in a hurry.
But it's no wonder that the cow is the cow. The Zhou family's cow is an old cow. Although it is usually docile and hardworking, it is old and cannot be as good as those newborn calves when it comes to pulling carts and so on.
Waiting for the bullock cart to arrive in the village, the three of them felt relaxed.
The cow didn't dare to go back in the middle of the night. If the Zhou family saw their cow in this state, even if they were on good terms, they would probably feel uncomfortable in their hearts.
Besides, the cow was borrowed by Madam Zhou, and Shuangxi didn’t want to cause conflict between Madam Zhou, her husband, and her husband’s family because of this.
After all, the relationship between Mrs. Zhou and her mother-in-law has never been good.
When he got home, Quanzi was at Shen's house, lighting a fire for Shen Bingxian. Although he was not willing to take care of his love rival...but he knew that if something happened to Shen Bingxian, Shuangxi would definitely be sad.
How could he bear to suffer both happiness and sadness?
Hearing the sound of a car entering the yard, Quanzi quickly came to the yard.
When he saw Shuangxi's embarrassed look, his face darkened and he asked coldly: "What's going on?" He quickly stepped forward and grabbed Shuangxi's hand.
Shen Ziyan and Shen Yan are two grown men, but they still can't take care of Xi'er? Seeing Xi'er like this means she has suffered great grievances!
Shen Ziyan glanced at Quanzi, and there was an inexplicable dark light flowing through his eyes.
Quanzi noticed his gaffe and quickly let go of Shuangxi.
Only then did Shen Ziyan explain: "I met a highwayman."
Quanzi narrowed his narrow eyes and asked coldly: "Have you seen their faces?"
Shen Ziyan shook his head.
How could Shen Ziyan not know what Quanzi meant, that he wanted to come back for revenge. Of course, Shen Ziyan also wanted to vent his anger on Shuangxi, but he really didn't know what those people looked like.
He was also very angry inside.
However, he remembered the voices of those people. If he met one day, he would most likely be able to tell who these people were based on their voices and body shapes!
Shen Ziyan clenched his fists. He didn't care if he bullied their brothers, but this had frightened Xi'er, so he wouldn't just let it go!
How could a man allow others to humiliate his woman like this!
Shuangxi was in a good mood at this time. Although he still resented the bandits who blocked the road, he and others came back safely and did not suffer any serious injuries. It was really a blessing among misfortunes.
They went to the kitchen and changed their clothes. As for the Shen brothers and Quanzi, they were in the big house of the Shen family.
Shuangxi scrubbed his body, then quickly changed his clothes and walked into the big room.
When I came here, I went around outside because I was afraid that Shen Bingxian would see me like this. When I returned to the big house, because I had changed my clothes and had no worries, I went straight through Shen Bingxian's house.
Shen Bingxian was still awake at this time, lighting an oil lamp and half-rolling a medical book, and was reading it carefully.
When he saw Shuangxi, a glimmer of light flashed through his bright eyes: "Xi'er." It was a greeting.
Shuangxi smiled at Shen Bingxian, feeling a little worried. Shen Bingxian's voice was still so pleasant and ethereal, but it was getting weaker and weaker...
After giving half of the money to the Yun family, Shen Ziyan sent Quanzi away, mixed some wheat bran into the fodder, fed it to the cows, and then the family rested.
Early the next morning, Shuangxi felt uneasy when he touched the silver he had placed under the quilt, so he asked Shen Yan to dig a small pit where the firewood was piled in the kitchen and wrap the silver in several layers of cloth.
, then the soil was covered, and some firewood was piled on top.
As for the outside, I only left about a hundred copper plates for daily use, so I felt more at ease.
After the autumn harvest, the Shen family suddenly became free and seemed to have nothing to do.
The whole family was at home, and all the work that usually belonged to Shuangxi was snatched away by them, leaving Shuangxi free.
Shen Mo came back simply on this day.
Shen Mo is definitely a loyal dog type. He will go east but never to the west when Shuangxi says, and he listens to Shuangxi in everything.
Because probably since spring, Shen Mo has not been out on the ground and has been studying in the school. His whole body has become much fairer, and his originally bronze skin has now turned just a little bit darker.
"Xi'er, this time, sir, he said he would give us two days off." Shen Mo looked at Shuang Xi, his eyes were spinning very quickly.
This sentence aroused the interest of Double Happiness. How come there is a two-day holiday? This is not a holiday: "Why?"
Shen Mo said mysteriously at this time: "Xi'er, don't you know? This time, a literary meeting was held in the county. Gentlemen and many students attended."
The so-called literary meeting is a gathering for communication and exchange among students.
"Why don't you go for such a good opportunity?" Shuangxi stared at Shen Mo.
It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. Although Qingshan County is not thousands of miles away, it is good to go and see it. Besides, reading is not something done behind closed doors. It is good to communicate with others more. (Unfinished)
