(God gives two gifts, one is called blessing, the other is called disaster)
For several days, Lanfeng's family spent their time lazily. Time seems to have slowed down. Ye Heng finally doesn't have to get up early to catch fish. He sleeps until noon every day and drinks a few glasses of wine and eats some side dishes when he wakes up. Lan Feng plays with Hu Zi by the river every night. Reflecting the clear sky, the lotus pillow ripples in the evening, the green leaves turn in the light, and the children look for the croaking frogs. As for that forest, since the last Mr. Rabbit incident, the two children did not dare to go in again.
After these days, Ye Heng was really bored. Now that he suddenly had money, he didn't know how to spend his days. So I pulled up the fishing net and went to the river to catch fish. Unfortunately, the golden tail carp was not available every time, but these fishermen were used to this kind of life and just got by.
The next day, Ye Heng went to the county market to sell fish as usual. But at noon, Mrs. Ye had prepared the meal but Ye Heng did not come back, so she had to eat with Lan Feng first.
Mrs. Ye originally thought that Ye Heng was having some fun and stayed for a while, but when the sun went down, Ye Heng was nowhere to be seen. Now she started to get anxious. Seeing Ye's anxiety, Lanfeng also murmured in his heart.
At this moment, someone hurriedly knocked on the door. Mrs. Ye thought it was Ye Heng who had returned, and hurriedly went to open the door, but unexpectedly it was Lao Li from her second aunt's house. I saw Lao Li saying hurriedly: "Oh, it's not good, it's not good!" Old Li gasped.
Ye was confused when he heard this: "Brother Li, please speak slowly, what happened?"
Lao Li waved his hand and said: "Your Ye Heng was arrested!!"
Hearing this, Mr. Ye suddenly became anxious: "What's going on? What did he do? Why did they arrest him?"
"I don't know either!" Lao Li said, "Today I went shopping in the county and city. When I saw Ye Heng selling fish there, I went up to chat with him for a few words. Unexpectedly, several men suddenly appeared with their hands I held Ye Heng with a long stick. There was a woman behind me who said something about asking him to pay for his life. At that time, people also gathered around me, and I was squeezed on the ground and couldn't hear clearly!"
"Pay for your life..." Ms. Ye almost fell down when she heard this, but Lan Feng supported her from behind.
"Uncle Li, where were my father taken by those people?" Lan Feng asked anxiously.
Lao Li frowned: "It seems to be Su... yes, it's the Su family!"
Lanfeng was shocked after hearing this, Su family? Could it be sister Wanxi’s house? Pay for your life...what's going on...
Not allowing him to think too much, he saw Ye's head tilted and then collapsed on the ground and fainted.
"Mother!!!" Lanfeng panicked for a moment. When Lao Li saw this, he was also worried. He said: "Lanfeng, help your mother to my house first, and let your second aunt take care of it first. Let's discuss it in the long term..."
Lanfeng nodded, and Lao Li helped Mr. Ye to their home. When the second aunt saw this and asked about the reason, she could only sigh helplessly. How could they, ordinary people, talk to that rich family?
"I'm going to find my father!" Lanfeng saw the helpless look of Lao Li and the two of them, so he probably couldn't count on them either.
The second aunt said: "My child, it's already dark today. Can we talk about anything in the morning?"
Huzi also walked over and patted Lanfeng: "It's okay, we will go with you tomorrow. The Su family should be the home of the little daughter that day. She likes you so much and won't do anything to your father."
Lanfeng was grateful when he heard what Huzi's family said, but his guess was that it had something to do with the golden-tailed carp. Besides, his father was still in the hands of those people. He was so anxious at the moment that he couldn't wait for a moment.
So Lan Feng ignored his second aunt's words and opened the door and ran towards the county.
When the second aunt saw Lan Feng running out of the door, she quickly asked Lao Li to follow him. Lao Li didn't dare to neglect her. They were the two closest families in this small fishing village. But as soon as Lao Li chased after him, Lan Feng disappeared, so he had to speed up his pace to look for him in the county or city.
About half an hour later, Lan Feng arrived at the county town. But this place is so big, where is the Su family?
He looked around. Although the sun had set, the night was still not deep. The restaurants and shops in this county and city were still brightly lit, and there were many people walking on the streets. On one side is a red light hanging, lighting up the drunkenness; on the other side is a tea bowl of Xiaoqu, drinking into a scholarly family.
Lanfeng was running while looking for the Su family compound. He turned around and saw that Lao Jin's Futang was still open. He thought that he might as well ask this familiar face as he was wandering around like this. So he walked into Futang.
Lao Jin was dozing behind the case with his sunglasses on. He didn't look at anyone when he heard someone coming in. He opened his mouth and said, "Look at the Buddha statues, talismans, and fragrant wax on the left shelf. Fifty fortune telling for weddings and funerals." A copper coin once."
Lanfeng heard what he said, walked up to him and said: "Jin...Uncle Jin..."
Lao Jin was suddenly startled when he heard someone calling him uncle. He put on his sunglasses and saw that the person coming was a child, so he said: "Who are you, a little kid? Why are you coming to my store so late?"
Seeing that he didn't remember him, Lan Feng told Lao Jin what happened when he came to the store that day. After hearing this, Lao Jin said: "Oh~ your name is Lan Feng, right? What do you want from me?"
"That's it." Lan Feng briefly told Ye Heng's story.
Lao Jin adjusted his glasses and said: "Su family, when you go out, turn left and keep walking and you will see it. But they are the rich men of this generation. Why did your father provoke them? Besides, you are a kid. What's the use of it?"
Before Lao Jin could finish asking, Lan Feng hurriedly thanked him and ran out.
After a while, he walked through the bustling crowd and arrived in front of the Su family compound. There is a high stone courtyard wall, a lantern is lit in front of the gate, and two servants are standing at the door.
Before Lanfeng walked to the door and said nothing, the two servants shouted: "Hey! Where did you come from, kid? Is this a casual place for you? Go home!"
"I...I'm looking for my father." Lanfeng said timidly.
The servant frowned and said, "Your father? This is the Su family compound. You can't find your father here! Let's go!"
Just as he was talking, the door opened and a woman poked her head out, it was Liu Huan.
"What's going on? What are you yelling about so late? Don't you have enough worries?" She lowered her head and saw Lan Feng, "Hey, isn't this the wild boy that day? Why, you're not sleeping at home this night, running away What are you doing here?"
Lanfeng saw it was Liu Huan and said quickly: "Sister Liu Huan, did you arrest my father?"
Liu Huan's expression changed when he heard this: "That fish seller is your father?!"
Lanfeng nodded.
Liu Huan snorted coldly: "What a good boy, you are very brave." When she said this, she remembered that Wan Xi had a good impression of this child, so she said, "Come in with me."
After saying that, Lanfeng followed Liu Huan through the door. Lan Feng has never seen such a large yard, with an enclosed corridor, two side rooms, and a pond and rockery in the backyard. Although he was surprised, he didn't dare to say anything.
The two of them walked around the side corridor and came to a woodshed. After opening the door, Lan Feng saw Ye Heng sitting on the ground, his hands tied to the pillar behind him.
"Daddy!" Lan Feng cried and stepped forward to hug Ye Heng.
When Ye Heng saw that it was Lan Feng, he was shocked and angry: "Lan Feng?! You...why are you here!!"
"Uncle Li said you were caught, and my mother was so anxious that she fainted." Lan Feng cried.
Seeing the two of them acting like this, Liu Huan coughed and said, "Fish seller, can you talk now?"
Ye Heng shook his head and said: "Hey, girl. I really don't know. I'm just a fisherman. Besides, I didn't know that your young lady would eat so much fish. If she eats it all by herself, she won't Just do my thing..."
Lan Feng listened at a loss and turned around to ask Liu Huan: "Sister Liu Huan, what is going on?"
Liu Huan thought to himself that he would not let go even after his own son was captured. Could it be that he really had nothing to do with them? Thinking of this, she told Lanfeng and his son about the matter.
It turned out that she bought a gold-tailed carp from Ye Heng that day and brought it back to the Su family. Her original intention was for the master and his wife to keep it in the pond and watch it. Unexpectedly, before he could report it, he was slaughtered by the cook and made into dishes.
Later, when Mr. Su learned about it, he said he would kill it immediately. Hearing that the fish was born extraordinary, it was just the right time to replenish Wan Xi's health.
When it was time to eat, the family would definitely let Wan Xi have a taste first. Unexpectedly, this taste didn't matter. What happened next made Mr. Su and Madam Su dumbfounded!
I saw that Wan Xi couldn't stop eating the fish after taking a bite, and kept putting meat in her mouth as if she was addicted. At first, Mr. Su and Mrs. Su just said that the fish was delicious and asked Wan Xi to eat more. They never thought that the little girl seemed to be getting hungrier and hungrier. In less than half an hour, this fish, which was half a head shorter than her, was eaten by her alone!
What's even stranger is that Wan Xi's stomach doesn't rise and fall at all, as if she hasn't eaten at all. After a while, Wan Xi became dizzy for no reason, and she lay unconscious on the side with a red face.
This frightened Mr. Su and his wife, and they quickly called the doctor to see what was going on. But several doctors were changed in succession, and they all said that Wan Xi was not abnormal, but that she was in a good state with full energy and blood.
But it was not possible for Wan Xi to stay awake for the next few days. Mr. Su had no choice but to ask people to look for the fish seller to find out what was going on. Then he caught Ye Heng while he was selling fish in the county market.
Ye Heng secretly thought to himself that it was over now. If the Miss Su family couldn't wake up, he would probably be in bad luck.
"Hey..." Ye Heng sighed and said to Liu Huan, "Girl, if your master insists on blaming me for this matter, I have nothing to say. It's just that my son is innocent. You can do something about it when the time comes. It’s convenient to put him back.”
Before Liu Huan responded, Lan Feng on the side suddenly said: "Dad, I may have a way."
"Son, you can't talk nonsense. How can you, a child, do anything?" Ye Heng shook his head.
Lanfeng said to Liu Huan: "Sister Liu Huan, can you give me half an hour?"
Liu Huan originally felt sympathy after hearing Ye Heng's plea. After all, Lan Feng was just a child. Wan Xi was on good terms with him and heard that he had a solution, so she agreed to Lan Feng.
She sent Lan Feng out through the side door. Lan Feng turned away from Liu Huan and wanted to find a place where no one was around. He recalled that Hai Dongqing told him that he couldn't keep the golden-tailed carp, and advised him to sell it as soon as possible. He must have known the origin of the golden-tailed carp, and maybe Wan Xi could be saved. It's just that he was in the Su family's courtyard at that time, so it was hard to blow the whistle for fear of people discovering that he could understand the language of birds.
Lan Feng looked around for an empty place, and suddenly he heard someone calling him from behind: "Hey! That kid! Don't run away~~"
Lan Feng quickly stopped his feet and turned around, only to see a person smiling close to his face. The darkness in the night scared Lan Feng to the point where he sat on the ground.
