Huang Shao didn't know what happened in Qimu Town, let alone Diao Jun's arrest.
Now he is following the team, and all he thinks about is that after making money, both brothers will be able to have enough to eat.
When we arrived at Changyang Town, we followed the moving of goods until noon and successfully received lunch.
During the break, I ate big cakes with Boss Wang’s helpers outside the warehouse near the arch bridge.
What worried me was whether Diao Jun was hungry. It would be great if he could come. Although the cake was a little dry, it was still full.
"Gulu~Gulu~" A carriage came from the other side of the arch bridge, and the two wheels made a loud sound when they got on the bridge.
When we reached the bridge, one of the wheels suddenly became loose and fell off.
The carriage tilted suddenly to the left, and the coachman reacted quickly and quickly pulled the reins to stabilize it.
It was just that the carriage hit the bridge pier, and the people sitting inside screamed, and flew out as the broken carriage fell into the river under the bridge.
This scene frightened the entourage behind the carriage. They all got off their horses and stood at the bridge and shouted anxiously: "Master! Someone is coming! Help!"
"Why don't you go down?" The onlookers couldn't help but speak when they saw that the entourage was shouting that they couldn't get into the water.
"We don't know how to swim!" The followers were all anxious, "Save people quickly! Save people quickly!"
The person who fell from the carriage into the river was a fat man. Seeing that he was flopping in the water and about to sink, no one dared to go into the water.
After all, this fat man looks too heavy, and it would be difficult for anyone with good water skills to pull him up.
Even if you are not careful, you may be pushed down by this fat man and everyone will die together.
The followers became anxious and shouted at the top of their lungs: "Save our master quickly! Our master is the magistrate of Zhuoshui County. Whoever saves our master will be rewarded heavily!!"
When Huang Shao heard this, he immediately threw away the big cake in his hand and ran to the river quickly.
After taking a closer look, I found out that the person who fell was the magistrate of Zhuoshui County, but no one was willing to save him. You must know that the magistrate is a high-ranking official, and he is in charge of Qimu Town, Changyang Town, and many other towns.
Although he didn't know why others turned a blind eye, he saw an excellent opportunity.
As long as you save the county magistrate, you will be rewarded.
If you get a large sum of money and use it as capital to do a small business with Jun'er, you may not have to go hungry in the future!
He felt that the water quality was good, so he jumped into the river without hesitation and swam across quickly.
"Help me! Help me..." The fat county magistrate threw himself in the water in panic, choking on a lot of saliva.
"Sir, don't panic!" Huang Shao swam behind him, hugged the fat county magistrate, and shouted loudly, "Sir, please don't move, the grassroots will help you swim back to the shore!"
If the fat magistrate refuses to listen and continues to thrash, Huang Shao will be in danger and may sink with him.
No matter how good a swimmer is, it will be difficult for him to get back to the shore safely with a troublemaker.
Fortunately, the fat county magistrate was smart and stopped thrashing immediately after hearing this and stayed calm.
Huang Shao felt more relaxed now, making full use of his water skills, and swam to the shore little by little with the fat county magistrate.
The fat county magistrate's entourage immediately came over to help and pulled Huang Shao and the fat magistrate ashore together.
"Sir, are you okay?" When the fat magistrate came ashore, his entourage gathered around him nervously.
"Ahem..." The fat county magistrate spit out a lot of water, his face was pale, and his voice was a little weak, "Fortunately...fortunately, this strong man came to the rescue!"
"Thank you brave man!!" The followers immediately saluted Huang Shao.
"It's okay, County Magistrate!" Huang Shao gasped, he was quite tired from rescuing people.
"Sir, you are frightened. Hurry, send me back to the inn!"
The county magistrate's office is not in Changyang Town, and he was supposed to be on patrol incognito today, so he stayed at the inn.
The followers hurriedly brought the magistrate to the horse. The magistrate pointed at Huang Shao and said he wanted to thank him.
An attendant immediately came to him: "This strong man, my master would like to invite you to go back together. When I see the doctor, I will personally thank you! You will be rewarded then."
"Hey! Okay!" Huang Shao beamed with joy, "But I have to tell Boss Wang or his guy first."
After getting permission, he hurried over and spoke to the guy who asked him for help.
The guy nodded and said: "Don't worry, I will inform the boss about this. Don't worry, follow the county magistrate. Remember to come back early!"
"Okay!"
The county magistrate still has a lot of face, at least small town businessmen like Boss Wang dare not object.
So Huang Shao followed him to Changyang Station.
The entourage found a doctor to check the county magistrate's pulse, and then gave him some prescriptions to prevent wind and cold, and asked the servants to prepare them.
After finishing here, someone came to Huang Shao: "Strong man, I want to see you!"
"Oh, okay!" Huang Shao was nervous and followed him to the fat magistrate's room.
As soon as he entered the house, he saw the fat county magistrate sitting on the bed, with a friendly smile on his face: "Strong man, thank you for saving my life!"
"It should be!" Huang Shao quickly bowed his head, not daring to offend.
“I wonder who the strong man’s last name is?”
"Reporting to the county magistrate, the common man's surname is Huang, and his single name is Shao."
"Huang Shao? What a good name!" The fat county magistrate laughed and said, "Still the same family."
"My family?" Huang Shao raised his head in confusion.
"My surname is also Huang, what a coincidence!" The fat county magistrate looked at Huang Shao and asked, "Who is a strong man?"
"Nanaki Town!"
"Qimu Town? What a great place!" The fat county magistrate nodded, "How old are you?"
"Ah?" Huang Shao didn't react.
"I ask you how old you are." A follower next to him said, looking like he had some status.
"Ten, eighteen..."
"Eighteen years old? Okay, okay!" The fat county magistrate looked at him and asked, "Who else is there at home?"
"Sir, I am an orphan, and there is no one in my family anymore!" Huang Shao replied, "But I have a fellow countryman who depends on me for life. We have played together since childhood, and we are as close as brothers."
"You look like a pitiful person." The fat county magistrate stroked his beard, "I think you are a good boy. It just so happens that I have no children and we are the same family. If possible, I would like to recognize you as my righteous
Son, I wonder if you are willing?"
Huang Shao followed him, originally just hoping to get some reward to improve his and Diao Jun's life. Unexpectedly, the county magistrate actually asked to accept him as his adopted son. This was simply unbelievable. In an instant, he was completely confused.
"The master is asking you a question!" The attendant next to him saw that he was stunned, so he reminded loudly, "Are you willing to recognize our master?"
"My child, are you willing?" The fat county magistrate's face was full of sincerity.
Huang Shao was blinded by happiness. A common man who lived at the bottom of the society and racked his brains for food every day and was still hungry suddenly had the opportunity to become the son of the county magistrate. It was really hard to believe.
Confidence.
After coming back to his senses, he knelt down on the ground without hesitation and kowtowed three times to the county magistrate: "Father, please accept my child's obeisance!"
"Okay! Okay! My son, get up quickly!" The fat county magistrate got out of bed happily and reached out to help him up.
