Peach Blossom Song + Fanwai

The King of Han looked at Li Sheren gratefully.

After a few steps forward, the King of Han realized that the village was not small, and there were only a few scattered households with lighted lamps.In just a few steps, another light went out.

Li Sheren chose a larger room, and first said to the King of Han, "Your Highness, the waiter calls the door."

When the King of Han nodded, he stepped forward and knocked on the door.

An old voice came from inside the door: Who is it?

Li Sheren replied: old man, I am a study tourer passing through a treasured place, and I missed the dormitory, so please let me stay overnight.

The candles in the room flickered, and after a while, the door opened, and it was a middle-aged man who opened the door.

The man held up a small candlestick and slightly moved forward, trying to see the person in front of him clearly.

Li Sheren stepped aside slightly, revealing the King of Han behind him, and said to the man, "This is my Balang, I hope the master can help me."

The candlelight shone on King Han's face, and the man's slightly tense expression eased a lot. When he saw the many attendants and horses behind him, his expression became tense again.

Li Sheren observed his words and expressions, and hurriedly said: "These are family members. If there is no room for this many people in the house, just send them elsewhere."

The man hesitated for a moment, then he turned sideways hesitantly and let the King of Han enter.

Li Sheren gestured to the attendants, and everyone dispersed, and he turned around and entered with the King of Han.

From the outside, the houses here are quite tidy. Once you enter, you can see that there are only a few rooms separated by mud walls.

The King of Han looked around, he was quite cautious, but Li Sheren talked to the man: "Thank you brother, if it wasn't for brother, we really don't know where we will stay tonight."

The man's expression was still not good, but he didn't stay serious, he just said: "Wait a minute, I will clean up the house."

Hearing this, Li Sheren strode forward hurriedly, took out a silver ingot from his sleeve pocket, handed it to the man, and said with a smile: "Brother, trouble, my Balang is the youngest son in the family. He has been spoiled since he was a child. Please take care of him."

The man's expression paused, his eyes fell on the ingot of silver and he couldn't move away. He didn't hear what Li Sheren said clearly. After looking at the ingot for a long time, he struggled to move his eyes away again, and said stiffly: "It's only two days. A bedding is not worth so much money.

After all, he didn't take the money, put the candlestick on the side table, turned around and went straight in.

Seeing this, the King of Han was thoughtful, and said in a low voice: He seems to be very reluctant to part with this ingot of silver.

Li Sheren walked up to the King of Han and nodded: What Your Highness said is that you only look at the houses, and you should consider them a well-to-do family in the village, not like that.I'm afraid that the master's family has encountered difficult things recently and spent a lot of money, which is just right.

The King of Han immediately thought of what Ji Wen had done.

At this time, an old man came out from the inner room.

The old man was getting old, and he walked out slowly. Under the light of the weak wick, his figure was shaking slightly, as if he would fall to the ground at any time.The King of Han subconsciously took a step forward and held him by the arm: Ah Weng, walk slowly.

Li Sheren was taken aback, the old man was trembling, and he didn't know if he was sick, but don't make His Highness feel sick.He hurried forward and helped the old man.

The King of Han was ignorant, thinking that she was not supporting her well, so he stepped aside.

The old man sat down on a shabby straw mat, took a breath, and then shifted his gaze to the King of Han.

His eyes were cloudy and old, and his face was wrinkled, but he was surprisingly kind, and he said: Where did this little man come from?

The king of Han replied: I come from the capital, and I have traveled here to study.

The old man nodded, seeing the material of the King of Han's clothes, and seeing her mannerisms, he knew it must be the young master.He sighed: the family is poor, and I'm afraid it will make Mr. Xiao Lang feel wronged.

I am ashamed to bother you in the middle of the night, how dare I say I am wronged.The King of Han hurriedly said, and then remembered that the man hesitated just now and refused to accept the money, and said again: "A little money, let me express my gratitude."

Li Sheren understood and took out another ingot of silver from his sleeve pocket. This ingot was much larger than the one just now, and it was twice the weight.

The old man was startled, and he was about to decline, but the words of rejection came to his lips, his eyes fell on the silver, but he couldn't open his mouth for a long time.

The King of Han paid attention to his expression.There was a little noise from inside, like the sound of household items being moved.The old man looked up at the King of Han, then at Li Sheren, and slowly stretched out his hand towards the silver.

His movements were already slow, and this one after another seems to be even slower.

The old man's hands are full of calluses and wrinkles, all of which are traces of vicissitudes of life. A piece of silver seems to be very heavy. There is no food left in the pot, it doesn't matter to be old, a bunch of old bones, and I don't have a few days to live, but I still have a grandson, who is not yet three years old.

Chapter 58

The words have come to this point, and it is logical to ask further questions.

Li Sheren passed the conversation along the way, pretending to be puzzled and said: Could it be that there is some difficulty in the family?

The old man sighed: not only my family, but the whole county is in trouble.

The candle flickered twice, at first the man came back and called out: Father.

The old man said: "It's packed, you two should go and rest soon."
