Siheyuan: This is really immoral

Chapter 146 The Unfortunate Person

After drinking the ginger tea, Lin Zhuang walked into the main hall and saw Chen Xing sitting in the reception chair, and spoke to him.

"Brother Lin, do the clothes fit you well?"

After Lin Zhuang had finished talking to him, he asked him, "It seems that we can't deliver today's grain and pork. Didn't the employer agree on the time in advance? What should we do now?"

"It's nothing. We didn't expect such an emergency to happen at the time. We had discussed it in advance. At that time, we said that if there was extreme weather such as heavy rain, the transaction would be postponed for one day. If we continued the transaction, we would knock on the door according to the code."

Lin Zhuang thought about it and said, "Okay, then let's postpone it. Just make it clear in advance."

"Brother Lin, shall I continue to tell you about Zhu Huifei?"

At this time, there were only Chen Xing and him in the hall. After Lin Zhuang nodded for him to continue, Chen Xing told the story again as he did before.

"At that time, his little kid's eyes were like those of a mad wolf, staring at the place where I had just taken out the steamed bun, as if to see if I would deal with it. I also saw his hesitation. In the end, I thought it was unrealistic for his half-grown child to snatch my food, so just like that, because of a steamed bun, he told me everything about him."

At this point, Chen Xing's eyes were a little tearful. A big man from the north would not cry, unless...

"Just like that, because of two steamed buns and my momentary weakness, I let him follow me. I still remember that every time he ate, he always ate very quickly, even if he choked in his throat."

"In fact, my family used to be a landlord. Although I don't know why, under my father's repeated insistence, my family gave up a large area of ​​land and returned it all to the villagers and the team, but there is still a lot of food in the cellar."

"But when I was about to return to Sijiu City, I actually brought some food with me on the way. I also took some food I found on the way and occasionally tried my luck in the rivers and mountains, so at least I wouldn't go hungry. But even so, when Zhu Huifei's life seemed to be getting a little better because of me, God played a joke on him."

At this time, the tears in Chen Xing's eyes had disappeared, replaced by endless regret.

"The weather was so good at that time, with a lot of clouds, which was a good day for traveling, not too cold or too hot. But in the evening, before we found a place to rest, the sunny day suddenly started to thunder and lightning. I had a bad feeling at the time, so I pulled him around to find a place to hide from the rain."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Xing looked through the door, at the continuous rain outside, and continued.

"But how many places can I take shelter from the rain in this mountain? I searched all over the mountain for a place to take shelter from the rain, and finally found a small cave. I was so happy that I finally didn't have to worry about it. But when I looked down, I saw that the child was soaked just like me, with his lips tightly pursed and pale."

"As soon as I touched his forehead, even though it was still raining, I could clearly feel the heat on his forehead. The child had a high fever, but the rain was getting heavier outside, and we were in the wilderness, so I didn't know where to find a doctor. In that small cave, I could only use the matches I had on me to light a small fire to keep him warm, and use clothes to collect cold rain water to cool him down. But... I didn't expect that he still got sick."

"He seems to have forgotten many things that happened along the way... He was such a smart kid. Since then, he has regarded me as his brother."

At this point, Chen Xing wiped his eyes, took out a box from his pocket, and said:

"Brother Lin, these are the cigarettes I just asked someone to buy. I don't know if they are what you usually smoke, so just make do with them."

Lin Zhuang was somewhat tempted, but he was really too old... to bear hearing such things. But in the end, he controlled his desire with reason, shook his head, and said to Chen Xing.

"Quit it, you can keep it for smoking, or give it to your brothers. I have other things to do today, how about the things I asked you to collect, how much did you find?"

"I found a lot of common things, but I only kept one wild ginseng. I asked a reliable doctor to check it out. It's about two or three hundred years old."

After Lin Zhuang said "hmm", he thought carefully. These supplements are probably useless to Uncle Ye. Too much supplements is not a good thing. He couldn't help but ask the system in his mind:

"Brother Tongzi, can the Strengthening Pill in the system be given to others?"

"Ding! Medicines are allowed, but strengthening pills and other enhancement pills are not allowed."

"Medicine? Why don't I see a place where I can exchange medicine?"

“Ding! This function has not been developed yet.”

"..."

As expected, the rain outside was still falling, but there was no longer the trend of strong winds and heavy rain falling on the high city, or clouds and thunder roaring on the ground.

The dinner at Chen Xing's place was prepared by his daughter-in-law who was about to get married. Although there was not all kinds of chicken, duck, fish or meat, chicken and fish were still placed on the table, obviously as a grand reception for Lin Zhuang, the distinguished guest.

Chen Xing enthusiastically introduced Linzhuang:

"Brother Lin, this is my girlfriend Zhang Dongjuan, we're going to get married soon. Juanzi, this is Brother Lin."

"Hello, Brother Lin!"

"Haha, you two are obviously a perfect match. You two are so well matched. When you get married, I will give you a big red envelope."

A closer look at Chen Xing's wife shows that she is a gentle person, without any aggressiveness. This is indeed the case. She speaks softly and does things decently. In later generations, everyone has their own personality, but if you can marry a woman with such a personality, it is definitely a great blessing in life.

Lin Zhuang and Chen Xing drank the most common wine in the city and toasted each other.

During this period, Chen Xing's wife also mentioned it.

"Chen Xing, please don't come to my house for a while. My dad really wants to know that it was you who took away the daughter's red wine he had hidden for decades. He has been angry at home for a whole day."

"Pfft~"

Lin Zhuang almost spit out the rice in his mouth. He wondered how Chen Xing had found a jar of girl's red wine so quickly.

Chen Xing smiled awkwardly with Lin Zhuang and began to explain to Zhang Dongjuan.

......

After eating and drinking, the sky turned ink-colored and the rain miraculously stopped.

Lin Zhuang decided not to stay with Chen Xing for another night. After saying goodbye to him, he took his bicycle and planned to go to Lou's house.

"Okay, Brother Lin, if it doesn't rain tomorrow, we'll move tomorrow night. If it still rains, we'll postpone it. You can pick up the clothes next time."

......

On the way, Lin Zhuang suddenly heard a sound.
