Rebirth of the backing and eating mountains

The leisurely days did not last too long.Three days after Wu Shifei left Anping Town, a letter was quietly delivered to An Rubao.

The person who delivered the letter was from Diecui Villa, who handed the letter to An Rubao, and said respectfully: "Master, please pay attention to the movement in Yuxing City when he leaves. Let it be handed over to Young Master An, I was afraid of delaying things, so I hurriedly sent it to you."

An Rubao held the letter, his eyes were uncertain, but he thanked the man with a smile, handed him a piece of silver, and sent the man to the gate, watched the man drive away in the carriage before returning to the room, quickly Quickly opened the letter.

There was no name on the envelope, but he had a hunch that it must be related to Zheng Junyu.

Opening the letter, there was a thin piece of paper inside. The two of them had known each other for many years. An Rubao could still recognize Zheng Junyu's handwriting. There were only a few words in the letter, which basically said that his life is stable now. He also wrote some trivial things in life, and asked about An Rubao's current life. On the surface, it seemed the same as what Zheng Junyu wrote in the past, but the handwriting on the paper was clearly not Zheng Junyu's!Seeing the signature at the end of the letter, he couldn't help but believe it.

If other people read it, there was nothing wrong with the letter, but An Rubao's heart sank after reading it, his face turned pale, and the hand holding the letter trembled a little.Song Chu came into the room and saw this, hurriedly stepped forward to touch his face comfortingly, and asked, "What's wrong? What's wrong? Uh? What happened?"

An Rubao came to his senses, looked at Song Chu for a while, then suddenly hugged him in his arms, and said in a trembling voice, "Brother...Brother Zheng, something may have happened to him." He thought it was something in the letter, so he asked, "What happened to him? What did he say?"

An Rubao let go of his hand and handed the letter to Song Chu.Song Chu took it over, looked it up and down a few times, and said suspiciously: "But this letter is usually tight, and there is no problem. Did you find it here?"

An Rubao pointed to the inscription, and said to Song Chu: "Look here, what was written in the inscription in the letter from elder brother in the past, do you still remember?" Song Chu read the letters between Zheng Junyu and An Rubao seriously. After really thinking about it for a long time, Fang said: "I remember, every time Brother Zheng wrote a letter, the word 'Jun'an' was written at the end of the letter... Yes, it is not wrong, I remember it very clearly, let me see, ah, This time, there is only one word 'An', so...is there any explanation for this?"

An Rubao nodded, and said solemnly: "There are indeed some sayings. This is the code word that my elder brother and I agreed back then." It turned out that Zheng Junyu sent An Rubao a letterhead with only the word "Jun'an" written on it. It was agreed to use this as a code word.When there is nothing wrong, "Jun'an" is written at the end of the letter to report safety. If only one word "安" is written, it means that the other party has something to ask for help. This is also to guard against someone tampering with the letter.Only Zheng Junyu and him knew about this matter, and he didn't even tell Song Chu, because the notes were different, but he believed that this letter was written by Zheng Junyu, at least because he instructed someone he trusted to write it.

After Song Chu heard it, he was a little surprised at first, but then he understood, looked at the letter, then at An Rubao, and asked worriedly: "Brother Zheng is a capable person with a good family background, and I don't know what happened to him. What's the matter..."

An Rubao frowned, and said: "A few days ago, my second uncle wrote a letter saying that because of his contribution to the disaster relief in the south last year, the new faction in the court now has the tendency to overwhelm the old faction. Although Zheng Guogong's mansion did not directly participate in the struggle between the two factions , but as a member of the old school, it is inevitable to be implicated. The Zheng family is the founder of the country, with deep roots and luxuriant leaves. Bringing down the Zheng family is a huge blow to the old school. As the Zheng family, the eldest brother must not be detached from the matter. I I think this time, the new faction may have found a way to bring down the Zheng family, and the Zheng family is in a bad situation, so my eldest brother has been implicated."

Song Chu didn't understand these intrigues and mutual strife in the court, and he heard it ignorantly, but he understood that Zheng Junyu's current situation might be more difficult, so he asked: "But our family is just an ordinary farmer, can we help?" Big brother what?"

An Rubao patted his face, and said: "You can only find out if you meet the eldest brother. For now, we should find a way to go to Yuxing City first, and go to Zheng's house to have a look. Since the eldest brother can send the letter , it seems that there is no danger to his life for the time being, let's go to him and ask."

Song Chu nodded, quite agreeing and said: "That's right, we should ask Big Brother Zheng, so that we will know what to do, at worst, let's take Big Brother Zheng back to Qingshan Village, and if others want to fight, they can fight by themselves Go, ignore him." As if it was as simple as taking Zheng Junyu back to Qingshan Village, it was as easy as it was to say.Of course An Rubao knew that he didn't know the pros and cons, but seeing him tilting his head up and shaking his head with a smile, he felt a lot more relaxed.

It's easy to say, but what excuse to use to go to Yuxing City is quite troublesome.Yu Xingcheng knew that An Rubao and Zheng Junyu had good friends, especially those from the Wang family. When An Rubao went to Zheng Junyu's house as a guest, Wang Zhenqing from the Wang family might also be there. How did Zheng Junyu treat An Rubao? But you can see clearly.It's an extraordinary time now, if you enter the city rashly, if people don't see you, it will probably bring trouble to Zheng Junyu.

Fortunately, the two of them didn't worry about it for too long. On the second day after Zheng Junyu's letter was delivered to An Rubao, he came to the door with an excellent excuse.

This day, the family had just finished breakfast when someone sent a letter.The letter also came from Yuxing City, and it was written by Qin Feng's Ah. Qin Feng opened the letter full of doubts, and after reading it, his face showed a bit of trouble.An Xuan stood next to him, seeing that his expression was not right, he reached out to take the letter and read it carefully, with a rather helpless expression on his face.

Although the Qin family in Yuxing City is considered to be a scholarly family, the biggest official in the family is just a fellow acquaintance from the sixth grade. After reaching this generation, he finally figured out a Qin Wenchang. The first class in middle school and high school has brought glory to the Qin family.Everyone in the Qin family was very happy, even Qin Zhengyuan, who was as indifferent as Qin Zhengyuan, praised this grandson, and said that his ancestors would bless him.

Qin Zhengyuan's letter is related to Qin Wenchang.Qin Wenchang was very talented and famous in Yuxing City when he was young, and he was the dream lover of many brothers and sisters in the city when he was underage.It's just that the Qin family has always been aloof, and Qin Wenchang is no exception, so he won't be able to fall into his eyes easily.The Qin family looked down on merchants the most, as can be seen from their attitude towards An Xuan, but who would have thought that Qin Wenchang, who was the most valued by the Qin family, finally welcomed a brother from a merchant family into the door.This person is Zhou Tong, the youngest son of the Zhou family on Bone Street.

Speaking of the Zhou family, in Yuxing City, it is only second to the Zheng family. It has been doing business for generations. Not only do shops under its name spread all over Jingguo, but the surrounding countries also have semicolons.The Zhou family is wealthy, and the population is also prosperous. Now the head of the Zhou family alone has five brothers, and his own husband-in-law also gave birth to seven children for him, and Zhou Tong is the youngest and only brother. , was born by the husband of the head of the Zhou family, and the favor he received can be imagined.

Growing up pampered, Zhou Tong's temperament inevitably became somewhat stubborn and arrogant.He is two years younger than Qin Wenchang, and they both studied in the same school in the city. Qin Wenchang is a celebrity in the school, and he is most famous for his gentleness, which made Zhou Tong feel uncomfortable when he was young, and he was often used by others. As for the trip, Qin Wenchang thought he was a brother and just endured it blindly.In this way, the two quarreled and pestered each other, and when they got older, Zhou Tong began to have different thoughts about Qin Wenchang.

Zhou Tong was pampered and protected by the Zhou family. He was simple and straightforward. Since he liked it, he found an opportunity to talk to Qin Wenchang.Unwilling, Zhou Tong went to find his father and aunt, and harassed her in every possible way, but let the Patriarch of the Zhou family come forward in person to propose marriage to the Qin family.

Although the Qin family couldn't compare to a family like the Zhou family, the pride in their bones made them reject their marriage.The Patriarch of the Zhou family originally looked down on the Qin family, but there was nothing his brother could do if he liked him. In addition, his temper was aroused by the Qin family's attitude, and he resorted to various means, forcing the Qin family to agree to the marriage. After the person became an adult, it was Qin Wenchang who finally welcomed him into the house.

Although it wasn't Zhou Tong's original intention, the Zhou family's coercion and temptations preceded their marriage. With Qin Wenchang's haughty temperament, one can imagine their life after getting married.Needless to say, the Qin family was neither far nor close to him, Qin Wenchang was the same, it wasn't that he treated Zhou Tong in any way, it was just that they had been married for a few years, and they were always indifferent, without any tenderness.At the beginning, Zhou Tong was still waiting and looking forward to the long-term love, but as time went on, he could only feel sad secretly.

Qin Wenchang devoted himself to learning these years, and Zhou Tong's temperament was tempered in the Qin family for several years, so he learned some ways of the world. If there is no accident, the two of them lived indifferently like this, and it is unknown whether they will be able to grow old together.But something went wrong in the middle.

Qin Wenchang and Zhou Tong have been married for five years. Due to the cold relationship, the two of them don't have much intimacy on weekdays. Therefore, the two have never had children. Wenchang had the idea of ​​welcoming a side husband into the door.

In Qin Zhengyuan's letter, he asked Qin Feng to go home, just a few days later it will be the Autumn Festival, the family will reunite, and they will have a good discussion by the way.The Qin family has never had a precedent for welcoming their husband. Even Qin Shangyuan dared to bring him into the mansion as a servant to raise him secretly. Later, he was forced to send him away. This time, the Qin family blatantly wanted to give Qin Wenchang welcomes his concubine, the fact that he has no heirs is one aspect, but he still has a grudge about Zhou Tong's family business.

Qin Feng was afraid that An Xuan would have a grudge, so he said, "Father, are you confused? Don't say that Zhou Tong is Wenchang's husband, but the Zhou family is so easy to get rid of. Zhou Tong has been in love with Wenchang since he was a child." , Although they have changed a lot in the past two years, their temperament is not easy to handle, if Dad and the others insist on going their own way, I am afraid it will not end well at that time."

An Xuan knew that he was uncomfortable, put down the letter, put him in his arms to comfort him, and said: "Father and the others have their plans, but Wenchang is not a person without ideas, after all, we have been together for many years, No matter how it was at the beginning, I think Wenchang didn't have the slightest affection for his husband. If he didn't want to, others would have nothing to do with him. Back then, your family tried every means to obstruct our marriage, but you insisted on me, and they finally Don't you compromise? Don't worry, the matter should not be as serious as you think, let's just wait and see."

Qin Feng just cared about it, and he was confused. Hearing what An Xuan said was reasonable, his heart gradually settled down.Unable to relax and nestle in An Xuan's arms, he said, "I hope Wen Chang has a clear head." An Xuan stroked his hair, and said, "Don't worry, Wen Chang is just a little slow to emotions, not an indistinct one." .” Qin Feng sighed: “I hope so.”
