v2 Chapter 24: Shen Ziping's shock, the relationship between Zhang and Shen's family

Shen Ziping glared at him, just happened to be seen by Dong Chenghu, Dong Chenghu smiled knowingly: "Brother Shen, let the children go out to play, they are also uncomfortable with us adults."

Dong Chenghu spoke, and Shen Ziping laughed and scolded Shen Jiangan to go out.

Shen Jiangan got Shen Ziping's permission, and immediately ran out cheering.

Shen Ziping looked out of the yard uneasy for a moment, and suddenly his expression became a little dignified. Shen Shikang found something wrong with him and asked, "What's wrong? Is there anything wrong?"

Shen Ziping still stared at the yard, turned his head to Shen Shikang as if he couldn't see enough, and said, "It's okay, Dad, I just saw a child from the Dong family who looked very similar to my deceased friend. It's similar, so I couldn't help but look at it a few more times."

Shen Shikang said dully: "You mean Zhang Zongnian?"

Shen Ziping nodded sadly, "That child looks so much like Zong Nian, it's like it was carved out of a mold, I had to take a second look, but the Zhang family was full of quilts Damn, how could that child be the child of Brother Zongnian?"

"Zhang Zongnian was loyal to the court and cared for the people, but he never thought that those people would kill the Zhang family for their own benefit. It's really outrageous!" Shen Shikang's face was full of anger, and Zhang Zongnian felt heartache encounter.

Dong Chenghu and Gu Shuixiu listened to their conversation as if they were struck by lightning.

Gu Shuixiu was afraid that Dong Chenghu would be exposed, so she stopped Dong Chenghu from speaking and asked curiously, "Mr. Shen, who is this Zongnian? Does he really resemble my child?"

Shen Shikang and Shen Ziping both nodded, Shen Ziping said: "Zhang Zongnian is the prefect of Linhai County, Linhai County and Yongjia County are adjacent to each other, I guess you may not be clear, because the geographical location of Linhai County It is superior, it is richer than Yongjia County.

Brother Zongnian was born well and talented. The most important thing is that he is not attached to any power, but everyone regards Linhai County as a piece of fat. The emperor was so annoyed that he listened to his father. He suggested that Brother Zongnian should take a post in Linhai County.

In the first few years, it was fine. At that time, although the emperor was stupid, he didn't dare to be so blatant. Later, the emperor became more and more absurd, and those people in the court became unscrupulous. Brother Zongnian blocked their way. , they used the most ruthless method to kill their whole family. The whole Zhangfu chicken and dogs are not left.

My father was disheartened by the imperial court because he heard the bad news. In addition, those people kept attacking my father, and the emperor kept persuading me more and more. Resigned and left Jiankang.

Originally, we wanted to settle in Linhai County. On the one hand, we could find out what happened to the Zhang family, and on the other hand, we could stay away from the right and wrong place of Jiankang. However, the earthquake occurred in Linhai County last year, and the sea water directly poured into it. In the city, a lot of people died at once, and we survived because we lived in Zhuangzi outside the city.

It's just that this happened, I don't think Linhai County is safe, and we found that those people are still checking whether there are any fish that slipped through the net. The goal of the people, so I discussed with my father to move to Yongjia County, which is next door to Linhai County.

However, when we arrived in Yongjia County, we discovered that it is much poorer than Linhai County, and there are many refugees. There are often robberies, and it is not a suitable place for seclusion. My father does not want to go too far. If it is far away, we simply chose the Qingping Mountain plot to settle down. It is on the top of the mountain not far from you, and we will go over three mountains from your place. "

Shen Shikang sighed, "I think this old man has dedicated his life to the imperial court, but he has such an end, but it is much better than Zongnian, at least our family is still there, pity Zongnian ..." Shen Shikang's old tears were so full of tears that he couldn't say it anymore, he had deep guilt for the Zhang family, and at the same time he was deeply disappointed with the imperial court.

Dong Chenghu determined from the reactions of the Shen family and his son that they did not tell lies, and Dong Yi tried to protect Shen Shikang's character, so Dong Chenghu already believed their words, but he did not tell them Zhang Xingchi directly out of caution Instead, he looked at Gu Shuixiu and waited for Gu Shuixiu to speak.

Dong Chenghu's reaction made Shen Shikang and others understand that the real master of the Dong family is probably Gu's next to Dong Chenghu, but seeing Gu's good conversation, it is more and more certain that Gu Shuixiu's background is not ordinary .

Gu Shuixiu didn't care about the attention of the crowd. After thinking about it, she smiled and said, "Mr. Shen has also been in contact with these children today, do you know what that child is called?"

Shen Shikang coughed a little embarrassedly when he heard the words. He was frightened by the children's behavior today, and he did not ask the children's names, which was extremely rude to him. matter.

Gu Shuixiu smiled and said, "The little lady can tell Mr. Shen that the child is called Zhang Xingchi, the youngest child is called Zhang Junchi, and the child next to Zhang Xingchi is my cousin Zhao Baoer."

Shen Ziping stood up abruptly when he heard the name Zhang Xingchi, rushed out of the hall in disbelief, and ran towards Zhang Xingchi.

Zhang Xingchi was jumped by Shen Ziping's action, but he didn't panic. In his opinion, these people were all guests at home, and it was impossible to hurt him.

Shen Ziping carried Zhang Xingchi to the main room without a word, and said excitedly to Shen Shikang: "Dad, look, this child really looks exactly like Zongnian! I'm sure he is Zongnian's. child."

Shen Shikang waved to Zhang Xingchi with red eyes, Zhang Xingchi looked at Gu Shuixiu in fear, and approached Shen Shikang under Gu Shuixiu's gesture.

Shen Shikang touched Zhang Xingchi's head tremblingly, nodded excitedly, said ok, got up again, this time he even bowed 180 degrees to Gu Shuixiu and his wife to thank them.

Dong Chenghu quickly stepped forward to help Shen Shikang, Shen Ziping on the side was even more excited than Shen Shikang, and immediately said to Dong Chenghu: "Brother, I won't say anything else, I will call you brother Zongnian. Your child is raised so well, I, Shen Ziping, recognize you as a brother."

Although Dong Chenghu called him "Big Brother Shen" just now, but that is a respectful title, not a big brother in the true sense, at this moment Shen Ziping wants to call Dong Chenghu a brother, he really regards himself as Dong Chenghu Big brother.

Dong Chenghu was flattered, he didn't know how to react, but Shen Shikang agreed with Shen Ziping's actions. Dong Chenghu not only saved him, but also took good care of the Zhang Xingchi brothers, and swore to Shen Ziping. He is happy to see others.

In the end, under the words of Shen Shikang, Dong Chenghu got a sworn brother in a confused way.

Everyone calmed down after being excited.

Dong Chenghu also revealed his relationship with the Zhang family, and finally said: "Because the housekeeper Zhang trusted me, I couldn't live up to him, so I dared to rescue the two children, but only The children's nurse had an accident. Later, we dared not go to Linhai County, let alone let people know the identities of Xingchi and Junchi. Fortunately, this is a deep mountain, and no outsiders usually come in, so we will not bring them to the two children. Dangerous.

After the earthquake, we ventured to Linhai County again. At that time, we also asked someone to inquire about the situation of Zhang's family, but we didn't get anything, so we never went there again. "
