Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 18 Be kind to others and be kind to yourself

"If you have something to say, just stand there and say it!"

Zhu frowned coldly, and shouted sharply: "Don't dirty the house!"

Wu Zhong stopped outside the door, trying to straighten his body and look down on the mother and child in the room, but he bent down under the condition of Zhu's scolding, which looked quite strange.

"Auntie has the style of Pingyang." Wang Renbiao praised in a low voice.

"I heard that Princess Pingyang is currently stationed at Weize Pass?" Li Shan said casually, pointing to Wu Zhong outside the door, "This slave was the first to defect when he went north last year."

"Is there a contract of sale?" Wang Renbiao looked calm, "The fugitive slave was killed with a stick, and it was nothing more than a fine."

"Hehe, why is this, why is this, with red top and white, it's human nature, be kind to others, and be kind to yourself." Li Shan had a gentle smile on his face, "Tell me, why did you come here?"

Wu Zhong outside the door bowed slightly, "Mrs. Zhu and Da Lang haven't returned to Lingnan yet?"

"Lang Jun is for the sake of the whole family, so he has no choice but to do it..."

"I don't know if you are a servant of the Li family or a servant of the Zhu family!" Zhu said with a sneer, "Or do you think you are a servant of the Pei family?!"

Wu Zhong was silent for a moment, then said softly: "Miss Zhu, for Da Lang's sake, I need to go back to Lingnan immediately."

"What if you don't want to?"

"The weather was cold and freezing for the past two months, and it was difficult to start the journey for a while, but now the first month will come out in a few days." Wu Zhong threw the sack beside him into the house, "Twenty pennies are enough for money."

Mrs. Zhu was so angry that she couldn't speak for a while, it wasn't because of the twenty guan tolls, but because she heard the implication of Wu Zhong's previous words... If you don't get out of here, aren't you afraid of something unexpected happening to your son?

Wang Renbiao glanced at Li Shan beside him, thinking that you are the worst... A tiger does not eat its offspring, and Li Dewu is even more vicious than a tiger.

However, Li Shan heard some other meanings from these few words. Seeing that his mother's face was livid, and she was about to yell at her, she quickly stepped forward, "Mother doesn't worry about such trivial matters, the child will just deal with them."

"Brother Wang, sit down for a while, come when you go."

"Da Lang, Da Lang!" Mrs. Zhu called from behind, but Li Shan turned a deaf ear and dragged Wu Zhong out with a purse.

"Aunt, don't worry." Wang Renbiao persuaded Zhu to sit down, and said with a smile, "Dongshan Temple was the first temple to be abolished. It is safe and sound and has a great reputation. Brother Li is so rare for such a trivial matter."

"He's just playing tricks."

Wang Renbiao grinned. In the past few days, he specifically inquired about Dongshan Temple. This temple had a good reputation in the previous month. On the day of Lantern Festival, he saw Li Shan presiding over various affairs in the temple. It is probably because of Li Shan's means that he escaped the catastrophe.

After leaving the village and reaching the foot of the mountain, Li Shan suddenly stopped and asked, "How much money have you been greedy for?"

Wu Zhong's breathing was stagnant, his pupils dilated, he couldn't find anything to say for a while, and his eyes flickered.

"If he wants my mother and son to return to Lingnan, he will naturally have to pay some trouble, but it should be the last time my mother went to Pei's mansion years ago."

"He asked you to bring money to find us, and let us go back to Lingnan as soon as possible... As long as we leave, he will have no worries."

"And you have been greedy for the money, so you are not afraid that my mother and son will freeze to death and starve to death in Beidi."

Seeing how Wu Zhong gritted his teeth, Li Shan smiled and said, "Of course, it's also possible that you couldn't find us. Before that day, my mother and son had already left Chang'an and settled down in Dongshan Temple."

Wu Zhong nodded nervously, "Yes, I didn't know you left until I went to the inn..."

As soon as he said the words, Wu Zhong wanted to slap himself. Doesn't this mean that he admitted that he was greedy for money?

"It's human nature to be white with a red top." Li Shan patted Wu Zhong's shoulder with a smile, "After leaving the inn, it's natural to go back to Lingnan, right?"

Wu Zhong didn't know how to answer, the young man in front of him looked so familiar, but his manner and conversation were so strange, as if he had changed himself.

"We met in the temple that day on Yuanxiao, if you had gone back and told him...he would not have let you come after seven days." Li Shan said slowly, "So, your coming today is just trying to cover up your mistake."

"Mother has given up her mind, and she has never thought of going to the door. Although my mother has a strong temperament, she will not hit a stone with an egg... After all, it is the Pei family of Hedong."

"From then on, I will settle down here, take care of my mother, and live a stable life."

"You just pay back, you've already returned to Lingnan."

Li Shan's voice intruded unconsciously like the drizzle in spring, "Mother doesn't want to go back to Lingnan, if there is a big trouble...you are just a servant, and he is just clinging to his son-in-law, he can only rely on Pei's family... Can you hide it?"

"The most important thing is, no matter what, you must be the first unlucky one, whether it's him or Pei."

"If it is reported that he has already returned to Lingnan...he will be at ease, and you will be right."

Wu Zhong's expression kept changing according to Li Shan's words, and he had a strange feeling in his heart... The young man opposite seemed to be doing him a favor.

"Of course, you actually made up your mind to take these twenty pennies this time. It's not a small amount of money."

"You really just live here in peace?" Wu Zhong was completely moved by the last sentence.

"Of course, anyway, he is determined to cling to the Pei family. If my mother and son get involved forcibly, the consequences will be unpredictable." Li Shan shook his head, "If it wasn't for the fear of being ridiculed when going back, I really didn't want to stay in Guanzhong."

Wu Zhong's face turned green and pale for a long time, and he gritted his teeth after thinking for a long time. The fact is that, as Li Shan analyzed, Li Dewu spent all his money to send the Zhu family and Li Shan's mother and son back to Lingnan to avoid future troubles. , but Wu Zhong took the money.

On the day of the Lantern Festival, Wu Zhong saw Li Shan at Dongshan Temple and knew that something was wrong. On the second day, Li Dewu also ordered him to send someone to Lingnan to inquire. Shi and Li Shan sent away... Most of the money that was corrupted before was used.

If the mother and son could only live in peace and stability, even if they were near Chang'an, they would be in the same sky and land, and it would be almost impossible for them to meet each other... Wu Zhong thought so in his heart, twenty guanqian.

Watching Wu Zhong leave, Li Shan returned home with a smile, and said when he entered the door: "I've already gone back, don't get in the way."

"Mother, let the child deal with such things in the future."

"How did you deal with it?"

Li Shan tidied up the drawings on the table and casually mentioned the process.

"So cheap for him?!" Zhu scolded: "Since he admits that it was private, he can directly detain it...it's not a big deal to beat him to death!"

"It's just a tactic to delay the attack, right?" Wang Renbiao laughed.

"For the matter of Qiongwurztraminer, Dongshan Temple and your Yue's family will come forward and share [-]-[-]. Qiongwurztraminer... and Qiongwurztraminer juice, er, two more snacks, fried dough sticks are good." Li Shan muttered a few words before saying to Wang Renbiao: "It's not a plan to slow down the army. Be kind to others and be kind to yourself."

Zhu couldn't help scolding a few more words, she felt that her son was too kind, but Wang Renbiao was used to watching his words and expressions, and felt a slight chill from Li Shan's kind smile.

While Li Shan was talking about the cooperation, he regretted in his heart. It was a pity that he had lost the twenty pennies, but Wu Zhong couldn’t feel at ease if he didn’t give it to Wu Zhong...Damn, remember, the twenty pennies are afraid that you will pay the interest in the future. Sorry!
