[Rebirth] Fallen Grass Becomes a Bandit

The sound of the cow's hooves was on the quiet country road, and Uncle Niu roared: "Mother, there are guests!"

Du Lide jumped off the bullock cart, Tong Yanxu helped Shen Qian down, Shen Qian waved his hands away.

"Which one is here?" The hearty voice came from far to near, and it was an old lady who opened the door. She was dressed in plain clothes and had a kind face. She was surprised to see Shen Qian and the others for a moment, and asked her husband, "Where is this distinguished guest from? "

Shen Qian stepped forward and responded proactively: "Ma'am, Shen Qian is here. These two are my friends. We are going to Chengdu Mansion. The carriage was stolen as we passed by. It was Uncle Niu who kindly sent us a ride. If you bother me I still hope to forgive you."

The corner of Dolittle's mouth twitched, who would dare to steal his carriage?It was obvious that the person who was chasing him lit the fire himself, remembering the scene where the gang of grandsons were burned screaming, Dolittle had a rare fondness for Shen Qian.

Aunt Niu took a look, what a handsome young man!Compared with the girls in the village, oh no, the girls in the town don’t know how much better-looking, this gentle and polite appearance is like a champion who walked out of a book, Aunt Niu admired it, laughed enthusiastically, and greeted Said: "Oh, what kind words are you talking about, come here, come in, come in, I happened to cook something delicious today, I will ask my daughter-in-law to add a few more dishes, don't be a scholar!"

"Our son is not a scholar..." Tong Yan wanted to distinguish, but Dolittle pulled his belt from behind to prevent him from going.

Aunt Niu naturally didn't hear it, their voices were so loud, how could they hear Tong Yan's little mosquito-like voice!

Uncle Niu rubbed his hands, and seeing his wife welcoming him into the door enthusiastically, he finally smiled honestly, and said, "Don't be too polite, Mr. Xiucai, it's still a short distance away from the next town, if you don't dislike it, just go Stay here for one night!"

Aunt Niu had already rushed into the kitchen, leaving only Shen Qian walking side by side with Uncle Niu, Shen Qian said with a smile: "If it doesn't bother you, that's exactly what we plan to do."

"No trouble, no trouble, no trouble! Please come in!" Uncle Niu's dark face suddenly burst into a big smile. The village is considered rich, but he has never seen such a handsome and gentle man. Uncle Niu thinks It was a long face to take them home, didn't you see the big and small people who were stretching their necks outside their courtyard just now to watch the movement?

Shen Qian stepped over the threshold and entered the main room, and looked up. Uncle Niu's daughter immediately cleaned the benches, tables and chairs, and stood aside with a slightly flushed face. She just donned a jasper hairpin and stood awkwardly aside, not daring to look up at anyone.

"Big girl, why are you still standing here? Go inside and help your sister-in-law!" Uncle Niu saw that the big girl was acting like a little girl, and there was something he didn't understand. He frowned and immediately drove her to the kitchen.

Shen Qian was not restrained, he sat on the unsteady bench generously, and chatted with Uncle Niu with a smile.It was Uncle Niu, it was fine that they were sitting in the bullock cart with their backs to him just now, but now they were sitting face to face, Shen Qian answered with a smile on the corner of his mouth, which made the hearty farmer Uncle Niu feel embarrassed, rubbing his hands, his dark face glowed. With a simple red color, his voice was slightly unsteady, his hands were firmly clenched by his sides, and he nodded frequently listening to Shen Qian's words.

"Grandpa!" The small voice sounded like a cat meowing, and only a round face was revealed as he grabbed the door frame.

Shen Qian said with a smile: "What a clever boy, come here soon!"

Uncle Niu smiled even more happily, pointing to the little grandson who ran over, and said: "This is my eldest grandson, and he has been sent to school in the spring of this year!" Uncle Niu proudly puffed out his chest Said, looking at his grandson kindly and kindly, not half of the restraint he had when he talked with Shen Qian just now, his eyes were all on his grandson.

Shen Qian asked: "What's your name? Are you famous?"

The blushing child didn't back away either, he raised his head and said, "My name is Niu Niu! Er, grandpa, I don't have a name yet!" Turning to Uncle Niu, he patted his head in embarrassment.

Uncle Niu was suddenly blessed, and stroked his palm and said, "Mr. Xiucai, please get one! There is no one in our family who can read and write. This name has been put on hold for a long time. I wanted to trouble the teachers in the school to get it, but we are not good at it." This mouth!"

Shen Qian wanted to refuse at first, this name carried the expectations of his parents, wouldn't it be an overreach for him to choose it?But looking at Uncle Niu's honest and expectant face, and Niu Niu's joyful little face, Shen Qian felt that, for them, it would be most proud of them to let the 'Scholar' give them a name.

Shen Qian beckoned, and Tong Yan immediately took out something from the bag.

After setting up the pen, ink, paper and inkstone one by one, Shen Qian dipped the pen in the ink, meditated for a while, and wrote the word "Zhengsheng".

"Stand upright and have a reputation. Is that good?"

Uncle Niu and grandson's eyes were staring straight. From the moment Tong Yan took out the things, they held their breath and didn't dare to breathe. They blushed and watched Shen Qian write two words in two strokes, flowing and flowing, in one go , Even if Uncle Niu is illiterate, he feels that he has met a noble person.

"Okay, Niu Zhengsheng, it sounds so good!" Uncle Niu thanked Shen Qian repeatedly, pulling his grandson to thank Shen Qian.

"No, I've disturbed the uncle's family, we should thank you!" Shen Qian stroked the jade pen in his hand and waved to Niu Niu.

"How about giving this to you?" Shen Qian bent over and asked with a smile.

Niu Niu blushed and waved his hands again and again, "No need", and as if afraid that Shen Qian would not believe it, he turned his head and stared at his grandfather with wide eyes as if asking for help.

"Hold it, if one day you finish your studies and enter the imperial examination in Beijing, maybe using this pen can help you get your title on the gold list?" Shen Qian put the pen into Niu Niu's little hands, "I came from thousands of miles, so it's considered a good thing to meet you." It's fate, if you don't accept it, isn't it because you are not sure about yourself?"

Niu Niu gritted his teeth, his round head seemed to be about to smoke, he held the pen in his hand, heavy like a schoolboy, clad in a Confucian gown, bowing his hands: "Mr. presents a gift, the students dare not refuse!"

"It's so good!" Shen Qian clapped his hands and laughed.

"Master, our Niu Niu is famous!" Uncle Niu happily shouted to the kitchen.

"What's your name?" Aunt Niu came out wiping her hands, staring at her little grandson beamingly.

"Niu Zhengsheng! Good name!" Uncle Niu emphasized.

"Oh, good good good good good good good good good good good good good good good good good good good good good good good good good good good good good good and I will ask my daughter-in-law to cook a few more dishes!" Aunt Niu smiled and narrowed her eyes, regardless of the three people's dissuasion, she insisted on adding a few more dishes.

The dinner is very sumptuous, although it is not chicken, duck and fish, but the unique flavor of the countryside is refreshing. Outside is the sunset, the smoke in the village is wafting, and occasionally the sound of children playing is crisp and clear, lying on the simple and clean cotton After being laid down, one can't help but slow down one's thoughts, and slowly become intoxicated by it.

"My lord, this bed burps my back ache!" Tong Yan muttered softly.

Shen Qian rested his arms on his pillow and said: "Then go to the yard to sleep, and the sky will be your blanket, and the scenery will probably be much better."

Tong Yan resolutely pursed her lips and stopped talking, and fumbled and pulled a piece of quilt under it, not knowing how the young master endured it.

When Shen Qian was about to close his eyes and fall asleep, he suddenly turned over and got out of bed, causing Tong Yan to tremble a few times in fright and then fell off.

"Did you feel something was wrong?" Shen Qian knelt on the ground, with his face sideways touching the ground.

Tong Yan shook her head, "What's unusual? Someone came after me again?"

There was a creak of the door, Shen Qian pulled Tong Yan up, a tall shadow came in close to the door frame, Shen Qian narrowed his eyes, his pupils extremely narrowed.

"What? You heard it too"

Du Lide had already put on his clothes, quickly packed Shen Qian's luggage, and said: "The sound of hooves is coming, let's go!"

Shen Qian stood still, Du Lide frowned, and growled: "At least it's a battle of hundreds of people, how dare you fight?"

Shen Qian: "This is not the person who came after me, listen carefully!"

Dolittle squatted down in doubt, and got up after feeling it seriously, and said: "The sound of the horse's hooves is very chaotic, and the distance is very long."

Shen Qian nodded, with a deep smile on the corner of his mouth, looking very creepy in the moonlit room, he said: "This is a horse thief, because the level of the horse is different, so the sound of the horse's hooves is intermittent, the person who killed me is not It may be possible to use so many people, swagger! So, we can't go."

Du Lide still wanted to argue, but Shen Qian immediately made a decision: "Since we meet, there is absolutely no reason to stand idly by. Horse thieves are vicious and cunning, and they don't just steal money to settle things. There are so many women and girls in the village. I'm afraid It is going to be ruined!"

"Tell me, how to do it!" Du Lide also thought that the people in this village were kind-hearted, and he traveled the rivers and lakes in the early years, and he was righteous and would not be seen as bullying. Seeing that Shen Qian wanted to take care of him, he was naturally willing to take orders.

"Flying over the Broken Bridge over the water, with glaring eyes and spears, he said: 'You are Zhang Yide, you can come and fight to the death!' Today, it depends on your ability, Zhang Yide!" His brows also exuded a slight chill, and the narrow arcs at the corners of his eyes made Dolittle shiver.

Under the black night, the fear of countless people is shrouded, and the approaching horseshoes make this quiet village seem to be waiting for the call of death.

"Don't panic, do what I say, maybe you can still make money!" Shen Qian led a group of young and middle-aged men to stand at the entrance of the village. In front of them was a scarecrow that would only be placed in the rice field during harvesting. At this moment, he was dressed in human clothes. , against the backdrop of the night and fire, the hem of the clothes floated like a ghost.

The men squeezed the torches tightly, stared and gritted their teeth, hoping to fight the horse thief in front of them.

"Remember what I said, don't run into the wrong ranks." Shen Qian stared ahead, a spark burst out of his eyes, and he pursed his lips and smiled as he looked at the nervous or timid crowd.

"Brother, there is Niutou Village ahead!"

The whistling wind came mixed with the sound of horseshoes, and the man who spoke had to roar loudly.

"Brothers, the richest village is just ahead. Girls and women are up to you to dispose of, and the stolen money must be handed over to the second master! Do you understand!" The man riding in front was dressed in black with a fierce look on his face. The scar from the corner of his eyebrow to his cheek made him look terrifying.

"understand!"

"Hehe, I heard that the girls in this village are the most juicy in a hundred miles. I don't know how it tastes!" The man in green behind gritted his teeth, eager to try.

"Ma San'er! The guy who puts away your crotch, don't fall off the horse!"

"Ha ha!"
