After sending Zhou Jin and Qin Nan away from the Qianqiu Quality Warehouse, the smile on Su Shi's face gradually disappeared, and his expression became more serious than ever.
Lin Mo asked carefully: "Sir, should we go back home?"
Su Shi looked suffocated, as if he was in a state of wandering. After a while, he came to his senses and said, "I want to take a walk."
Lin Mo immediately retreated behind him and whispered a few words to Zhang Ao. Zhang Ao nodded and sat on the carriage.
Su Shi didn't know the direction, so he found a random road and strolled slowly. Lin Mo followed closely behind him, and Zhang Ao followed Lin Mo from a distance in a carriage.
The moonlight is like water, dispelling the heat left by the summer, and the breeze blows with a hint of coolness that only comes in autumn.
Su Shi couldn't help but straighten up, and then did some chest expansion exercises. He took a deep breath, and his depressed mood was slightly relieved.
Only then did he cheer up and look around the street.
The streets are not wide, and the families on both sides do not live in high-walled compounds. The houses are right next to each other.
The moonlight is very good today, so almost every family is sitting in front of their house. Women are chatting together, men are sitting together drinking wine, and children are running wildly on the street.
When these people saw Su Shi appearing on this street, the women stopped chatting and the men put down their wine bowls. They couldn't help but look at him in surprise, because a young nobleman like him was not allowed to appear here. Don't draw their attention.
Some girls who had not yet left the court heard that a young nobleman had appeared on the street, and they couldn't help but curiously looked at the street through the cracks in the door. When they saw Su Shi, who was so handsome, dressed so gorgeously, and behaved so handsomely, they were stunned. My heart beat involuntarily, and a layer of red clouds flew up on my face.
Only the children running wildly on the street were completely immersed in their own world and didn't even notice that Su Shi was different from the others.
However, Su Shi was very interested in these children. He looked at the children running wildly with interest, and his pace slowed down a lot.
He looked back at Zhang Ao again, and saw that Zhang Ao had jumped off the carriage, holding the reins and carefully avoiding the group of children who had gone crazy, and then turned his head with relief.
At this moment, a childish voice reached Su Shi's ears.
"Brother, you've been playing for so long, it's my turn to play."
Su Shi looked around and saw a naked child chasing a child one or two years older than him. The child held a clay figure high in his hand and said impatiently: "My, you want to play with me at this time?" Ask dad to make another one for you."
The child was reluctant and kept mumbling: "This is what daddy made for me to play with."
The child avoided his younger brother and said with a smile: "If you lose to me, you are mine."
Suddenly there was no sound in the whole street except the laughter of children, and everyone looked at Su Shi in panic.
The parents of the two children had shaky legs and could hardly stand.
The child looked horrified when he saw that Su Shi's gorgeous clothes were covered in mud, while his brother burst into tears when he saw that the clay figure had only two legs left.
Su Shi knelt down, looked at the child, and said softly: "Little brother, why are you crying?"
The child was already bursting into tears. He pointed at the clay figurine with only two legs left and cried loudly: "Brother broke my clay figurine."
The elder brother seemed to know that he had gotten into a big trouble, and stood there motionless in fear. Su Shi gently touched his elder brother's hair and said with a smile, "You don't have to be afraid, it's okay. Why did you take my younger brother's clay figurine?"
Seeing Su Shi's kind and gentle tone, the elder brother's fear in his heart was reduced a lot. When he saw Su Shi asking about the clay figurine, he argued, "I didn't take his clay figurine. He lost it to me."
At this time, the brothers' parents came over in fear. The mother pushed the father, but the father's lips kept trembling, but he couldn't say a word.
When the mother saw that her father was so useless, she could only grit her teeth and said in a trembling voice: "This young master..."
Su Shi smiled and said, "I'm fine. They bumped into me accidentally. It's okay. You don't have to blame them."
Then he couldn't help but curiously asked his brother: "How did you win?"
The elder brother said disdainfully: "My younger brother is so stupid. When we play rock-paper-scissors, he loses to me every time. He also lost to me for this clay doll."
Su Shi smiled and said, "You must have cheated, right?"
When his brother was exposed by Su Shi, his face immediately turned red and he said coyly, "Who can't tell him?"
Su Shi burst out laughing, then stood up, touched the hair of the two children, and said, "Go and play. Be careful when playing on the street in the future. It's okay if you bump into people. If you bump into other places, let yourself be careful." It’s not fun when you’re injured.”
Then he said to his brother: "Cheating is not a good thing, and bullying your younger brother is even worse."
Speaking of this, Su Shi suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and his whole body suddenly froze motionless, and his eyes became deep.
The parents were extremely surprised when they saw that Su Shi was so talkative despite his distinguished status. They were about to say thank you when Lin Mo suddenly stood in front of them and waved his hands hastily to signal them not to talk.
Su Shi patted his thigh with his palm, thinking about everything quickly in his head, and a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He raised his head and closed his eyes, then slowly exhaled and murmured: "I see, no wonder I can't find anything unusual."
After finishing speaking, he opened his eyes, looked at Lin Mo, and asked, "Do you have any money on you?"
Lin Mo immediately took out a few taels of broken silver from his body. Su Shi saw that the two brothers had gone aside to play, so he took the broken silver and handed it to the father, saying, "I'm sorry for breaking the muddy water you made just now." , I will use this scrap of silver as compensation to those two brothers."
The father had never seen anything like this before. It was clearly his child who collided with the noble man. Not only was the noble man not angry, but he even wanted to pay him money. Could it be that the sun came out from the west today?
Not only the father was shocked, but also the people around him looked at all this in disbelief.
Su Shi was in a good mood at this time. He took his father's hand, then put the broken silver into his hand, and said with a smile: "Just take it with confidence, your two children helped me solve a big problem, this is It’s just my intention.”
After finishing speaking, he said to Lin Mo: "Go back home."
Until Su Shi's carriage disappeared for a long time, no one had come back to their senses. If it weren't for the broken silver in his father's hand, everyone would have thought that they must have been dazzled just now.
The father looked at the broken silver in his heart, and then at the two sons who were having fun together. He really couldn't figure out what big problem his son had solved besides covering the noble man's body with mud.
"I'm afraid those noble gentlemen have some problems in their heads." After coming to this conclusion, his father handed the broken silver into his mother's hand and said, "If all the noble gentlemen in this world have the same problem as the young prince just now, then... alright."
