Facts have proved that as long as you don't take the initiative to talk, you will be the background in his eyes.
Zhou Yunshu watched Kang Jingyu walk straight past her. The boy beside him wanted to remind him something, but he didn't know what he was worried about and finally didn't open his mouth.
"Let's go too."
Anyway, I have basically found out all the information that I should ask about.
Zuixian Tower was not very far from the house where they lived. After eating and drinking, they walked back, just in time to digest their food and learn more about the road in the river.
When we walked into a small alley, there was a sound of punching, kicking and yelling. The sound was very familiar.
Zhou Yunshu walked over and took a look, and sure enough, she saw Kang Jingyu's boy putting a sack on a person's body, controlling the sack so that Kang Jingyu, who was dressed as a nobleman opposite, could punch and kick him.
"I'll let you fart on the horse, let you scold him, but even a foreign trader dares to talk nonsense. I'll beat you on the horse today until you have teeth all over the floor."
Zhou Yunshu looked at Kang Jingyu's embroidered fists and legs from a distance. If the boy hadn't helped him control the person in the sack, he would have been able to break free.
The young man saw Zhou Yunshu and the others from a distance. He was about to remind his young master, but he saw them just looking this way and then leaving.
When Zhou Yunshu returned home with Zhan Chuan, her mother and second aunt had already returned with the seven members of the Liao family and two rough servants they had bought at the market.
Huzi and the other two were sitting in the back room drinking tea. When they saw the changed Zhanchuan coming back with Zhou Yunshu, they immediately clapped the melon seed peels on their hands and ran out.
"Boss!"
Zhou Yunshu looked at the three people who were standing in a straight line one after another and said: "It just so happens that Zhanchuan will live with you from now on. You go and find a place for him to live."
The hunting dog nodded and said, "I understand, boss."
"You go and do your work." After Zhou Yunshu said to Huzi and others, she took Zhanchuan to the study in the front yard.
After Chunque brought hot tea and cakes, she didn't stay in the study. She walked out of the room and ate happily with a bowl of melon seeds.
She got these melon seeds from Huzi and the others. They are spiced and easy to eat.
In the room, Zhan Chuan looked at Zhou Yunshu who had taken off her hat, but still couldn't recognize who she was.
Seeing her pouring tea for him, he quickly said: "Madam, I'm not thirsty."
Zhou Yunshu pushed the tea cup filled with tea to Zhan Chuan's side and said, "Sit down, I look up and see that you are very tired."
Zhanchuan also knew his height, so he nodded and sat next to him.
"Are you feeling strange that you have never seen me before?"
Zhanchuan nodded.
"Because I was disguised as a man when I went to find you." Zhou Yunshu said, pointing to the bow and arrow hanging on the wall: "Don't you think it looks familiar?"
Zhanchuan took one look and stood up directly.
Before, he was still hesitant about whether what Zhou Yunshu told him was a lie, but now when he saw the bow and arrow he made after working hard from dawn to dusk, he confirmed that Zhou Yunshu had indeed bought something from him.
Zhan Chuan walked to the bow and arrow, took it off and saw the mark on the bottom of the bow, then put the bow down again and sat down next to Zhou Yunshu.
"I know who the lady is."
He may not be able to remember the person, but the bows and arrows he made are all numbered, and each has its own mark. Just by seeing the bows and arrows he made, he can remember who bought his bow and arrows.
"Before, there were too many people in the city, so I didn't ask you many things." Zhou Yunshu looked at Zhan Chuan, who had changed a lot, and said, "How could you become a slave?"
And it seems that the time of being a slave is not short.
Zhou Yunshu looked at Zhan Chuan's lowered head and eyebrows, picked up the teacup in his hand and said, "I'm just asking, you can choose not to speak."
Zhan Chuan picked up the tea that Zhou Yunshu had just poured for him and drank it all in one gulp. "It's not that I don't want to talk, it's just that it's a long story."
"Then speak slowly."
Warship held the tea cup and said: "When you came to buy the bow, arrow and machete, the taxes in the city were already twice as high as in previous years, especially the commercial tax."
“My wife and I both ran a small business, I was blacksmithing, and she was selling hairpins. Later, the two business taxes were too expensive, so she closed the stall and planned to stay at home to take care of the housework. It just so happened that she was also three months pregnant. "
When Zhanchuan talked about his wife, there was not much tenderness on his cold face.
"When I went to the shop that morning, Yaoniang said that a regular customer came to get hairpins and would stay for lunch at noon. She asked me to take some food with me to eat in the shop when I left. But at noon that day, a customer wanted to buy a sleeve bow, and the only one was I left a sleeve bow at home, so I went home."
"After returning home..." The cup in Zhanchuan's hand was crushed by him, and the pieces of the cup were embedded in his palm, but he seemed not to notice, "She said it was for me, so she thought of her regular customers and wanted to serve her. For once, he exempted me from applying."
"The bastard pulled her and said that my wife served well. If I was willing to kneel down and be his groom, he would cross my name on the list of applicants."
"I killed him." After Zhanchuan finished speaking, he looked at the blood on his palm and continued: "I said I don't blame her."
"Yao Niang was sold into a brothel by her family when she was young. She wanted to help me when she was in trouble. She couldn't think of any other way but to use this method. I don't blame her, she did it all for me. I just felt that I killed that beast , our family of three needs to leave immediately, otherwise there will be no good fruit for us if the bastard’s family is found to have some influence.”
"I asked her to wait for me. After I threw the bastard's body into the well, I went to buy a car." Zhanchuan took a deep breath and continued with a slightly trembling voice: "It's just that when I came back, my yard was already there. Surrounded by people from that bastard’s family, Yaoniang said she was the one who killed him, and she committed suicide, leaving one dead and two dead.”
Zhou Yunshu sat next to him and sighed.
"They said they wanted to feed the bodies of my wife and children to the dogs. I couldn't help it, so I rushed forward and killed four or five of them. I was eventually caught. I was originally sentenced to death, but maybe God didn't want me to die. , so after the county magistrate in the city was dismissed, the government was leaderless, and the jailer who had benefited from me in the prison let me go."
Zhou Yunshu looked at Zhan Chuan, "Then why are you still a slave?"
"I was deceived. The jailer took a hundred taels of silver from Zazai's family and said that the money would be his as long as he got me out of prison. They thought it would be too easy for me to die directly after being beaten in prison."
"I was thrown into the Colosseum in their gambling house by the bastard family. In order to survive, I fought with the beasts that had been hungry for a long time. If my fever hadn't been too severe later, they would definitely not have let me go."
"But they still didn't let me go. After beating me so hard that I couldn't get enough air in, they threw me on a black boat coming out of the river."
"As for what happens next, you already know."
Zhou Yunshu looked at Zhan Chuan and nodded slightly, "You are now mine. I can help you to the best of my ability. Do you need it?"
Zhanchuan's eyes lit up, and then he lowered his head, "You can't help."
"Is the family of bastards in your mouth so powerful?" Zhou Yunshu wondered.
Zhan Chuan exhaled a breath and said, "That bastard's biological sister is the concubine of King Qi."
An Sheng was holding the plate and stopped when he heard the word "King Qi".
"Unless King Qi dies, I will never be able to take revenge."
