Chapter 162 On the Island

Chapter 162 On the Island
The person who kidnapped him obviously planned it long ago, and must have found out his details long ago.

Wen Chu had nothing to shy away from, so he said everything.

Sister-in-law Lian sighed with a smile, "It's hard to do such an errand for such a gentleman as an adult", and led him into a row of wooden houses.

Although the house is as simple as the nearby wooden houses, it is the largest one, with five or six rooms.

Sister-in-law Lian led him into the central hall, asked him to sit down, and patted the little girl, "Little Blackie, go and ask your twelve uncles to come home for dinner."

Wen Chu's heart skipped a beat, Twelve Uncles?

The little black egg is called uncle, so the surname is also Lian, ranking twelve——

"...Even the girl is called Twelve Miss regardless of her order at home, because Miss Huo calls her Twelve Sister..."

At that time, Nianyu was being judged in the third hall, and he was in charge of recording. He remembered Jin's words clearly.

Lian Twelve, Lian Yanqing——

Little Heidan bounced away, and after a while, the handsome man Wen Chu saw earlier entered the house, and Little Heidan was held in his arms.

Sure enough, he is the twelfth uncle of Little Heidan!

Wen Chu's whole body was tense, his mouth was dry, as if he had accidentally encountered something terrible.

Lian Twelve clicked his tongue as soon as he entered the room, dissatisfied and said to Lian's sister-in-law who served the food, "It's my best to leave him alone, so why don't you still provide him with food and drink?"

Sister-in-law Lian said in a gentle but firm tone, "I don't care what you do outside, but Master Wen is a good official, you are not allowed to be rude to him."

Lian Twelve curled his lips, "You already know he's a good official? Could it be that the word good official is engraved on his little white face?"

Wen Chu, "..."

With his face, how dare he call someone else a jerk?
"Master Wen said that he came with Master Su. Master Su is a good official, and the person he specially brought must be a good official too!"

Lian Twelve reached out to grab a huge conch she brought to the table, "Do you know that Su is a good official?"

Sister-in-law Lian tapped the table with her chopsticks, "Master Wen is still here, do you understand the rules?"

Lian Twelve was unwilling to withdraw his hand, and Lian's sister-in-law glared at him, "People in Fuguang say Master Su is a good official!

He can fool one person, two people, or even one thousand people and 1 people. Can he deceive millions of people in Fuguang?

Didn't you say you want to exchange Mr. Wen for food?I warn you, you can change as you want, don't use any despicable tricks to kill people! "

Lian Twelve covered his ears, looked at Sister-in-law Lian in horror, "Fifth Sister, I'm a good person!

Don't say such bloody and cruel words to me!Will teach me bad! "

Lian's sister-in-law laughed at him, and turned around to serve the dishes.

Wen Chu could not help laughing, clasped his fists and asked, "May I ask your Excellency Gao's name?"

Lian Twelve bared his teeth at him, "Tell you, so that you can go back and catch my Three Clans Extinguisher?"

Wen Chu wanted to say no, but then thought of the Lian family who had been wiped out of the three clans, so he silently closed his mouth.

In this way, Wen Chu stayed at Sister-in-law Lian's house.

As he guessed before, this is only the place where the family members of those bandits lived.

It should be bandits deliberately protecting it. The folk customs here are simple and unsophisticated, just like countless small fishing villages by the sea.

Lian's sister-in-law called him Mr. Wen outside, and introduced him to others as a troubled scholar who was picked up from the sea by Lian Twelve.

Everyone firmly believed in it, and every time they saw him, they were as cautious and respectful as if they were seeing the magistrate.

In the hearts of these simple old people, women and children, scholars are extraordinary figures.

Relying on water to eat water, here is surrounded by the sea, everyone, including even the sister-in-law, has to work hard every day to obtain food, which is very different from the world where Wen Chu grew up.

He walked around the island a few times, and after getting a grip on every corner of the island, he was really embarrassed to eat even his sister-in-law's stuff for nothing, and wanted to help.

But he has been pampered since he was a child, not to mention fishing in the sea, even things that a little black egg like picking fruits can do, he can't do it!

Because, he can't climb trees!

The only thing Wen Chu can do is to go to the beach with Little Heidan to pick up seafood stuck on the beach every day when the tide is low.

Just like this, he was often stabbed in the hands and feet, and he had to trouble his sister-in-law to treat his injuries.

Another time, he saw a transparent creature with eight tentacles. He thought it was pretty, so he looked it up curiously, and then he was sprayed with ink all over his face, which couldn't be washed off no matter how he washed it.

Later, Lian's sister-in-law gave him a strange kind of leaf, and he wiped it for several days before finally erasing it.

In those few days, Lian Twelve laughed so hard when he saw him.

For the first time, the upright and intelligent Mr. Wen felt what it means to be a scholar who is useless.

A few days later, by chance, he saw a set of painting utensils at Lian's sister-in-law's house.

After obtaining Sister-in-law Lian's consent, Wen Chu took the painting set and drew a vivid eagle on Little Heidan's paper kite.

Little Heidan's eagle kite has won the envy of all the children on the island.

Thus, Wen Chu finally found his place to use, drawing on the children's paper kites!

The children happily went home with paper kites to show off, and the residents on the island suddenly realized that Mr. Wen was not so unattainable.

That night, a gray-haired old lady was leaning on a cane, holding her grandson by the arm, and asked Wen Chu to write a letter to her son for her.

Let him come back next time to pull more coarse cloth, her grandson has recently jumped up a lot to make new clothes.

Naturally, Wen Chu would not refuse, and the old lady left with a thousand thanks.

Early the next morning, there was a long queue in front of my sister-in-law's house.

Some of them came to ask Wen Chu to help write letters, some came to ask Wen Chu to help him draw pictures, and some of them came to ask Wen Chu to help him draw some talismans.

Wen Chu's upbringing made it impossible for him to reject such a group of people.

Immediately, he did it for them one by one, and even those who asked him to draw a talisman, he drew a portrait of an old gentleman for them, and wrote the words "urgent as a law".

Wen Chu has a handsome appearance, a gentle attitude, and can write and draw. He quickly won the love and respect of the residents on the island.

Even the sister-in-law's house was getting more and more lively, but within a few days, the old ladies and old men came to him when they had nothing to do, and asked him to tell them about the outside world.

Wen Chu then told them about the case he had settled at the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Now, not only the old people, but even the children stopped running around the island to listen to Wen Chu's case.

More and more people came to listen to the story, and in the end, all the women who were embarrassed to talk to him also came.

Wen Chu fixed the time after dinner, sitting at the door of Sister-in-law Lian's house, helping her peel the tung seeds, and talking about the cruel or hurtful cases in a leisurely manner.

Half a month later, when Lian Twelve from the outlying island came back again, he found that Wen Chu had become the "Chu Zizi" in everyone's mouth.

Lian Twelve, "..."

Ha ha!

Wen Chu was taken onto the boat by the sneering Lian Twelve, blindfolded roughly, tied up and thrown into the hold.

Wen Chu didn't know how long he had been at the bottom of the boat, but he could roughly guess that it was about four or five days from the number of times the water bandits fed him.

Then, he was finally brought out, took off the black cloth from his eyes, and saw the sea that almost merged with the sky, the big ship with sails, and the golden word "Xiao" on the flag fluttering in the wind.

It was Su Shangshu who came to save him!

Wen Chu's eyes filled with tears, Su Shangshu didn't forget him, let alone blame him, he came to save him!
The boat was getting closer and closer, and the figures on the boat gradually became clear, and the first person was Su Li!
Wen Chu didn't expect that Su Xianyu would send Su Li to rescue him in person, so ashamed and grateful, he almost shed tears.

Su Li brought a total of five boats, four of which stopped about three feet away, and the boat that Su Li was on continued to move forward.

The full white sail was full of energy, and it came to the front in a short while, and stopped at a distance of Zhang.

Seeing that there was only a handsome young man and a masked woman on the board, Lian Twelve couldn't help but sneered, "What? Su Shangshu is afraid that us water bandits will not keep their promises?

The four boats of food and grass not only couldn't be exchanged for Mr. Wen, but also lost a few boatmen, so they specially hired a little boy? "

Su Li smiled slightly, leaned over and raised his hands, "I, Su Li, is the nephew of Su Shangshu's family, the number one scholar in the current discipline, and is now in charge of politics in the Imperial Academy, and I have seen the head of Lianda."

Lian Twelve looked at him sideways, then snorted slightly, "Su Xianyu actually asked you to come because he was afraid that you would compete with him for your Su family's property?"

Su Li smiled and said, "The boss made fun of it, uncle was going to come in person.

Because there is an urgent matter in the capital and I need to return to the capital immediately, I was sent to pick up Mr. Wen.

The grain and grass are at the back, and the head of the family can send someone to check first."

As soon as Lian Twelve waved his hand, two small boats left quickly.

Lian Twelve gossiped and asked Su Li, "You said there was an urgent matter in Beijing, so your uncle rushed back. What is the urgent matter?"

Su Li raised his hand, "Sorry, this Su can't talk about it."

"Then what can you say?"

"It depends on what the master asks."

Lian Twelve crossed his arms and looked him up and down, "I often hear people praise your uncle for his gentlemanly style and outstanding tolerance, so it's not like you look like you deserve a beating?"

Su Li smiled, "The boss is absurd, but people often praise Su for being like an uncle."

Lian Twelve scoffed lightly, "I don't want to play games with you who study and become officials, kid, let me ask you.

I heard that your emperor's palm-printed eunuch is from the Lian family in Fuzhou, and your emperor also arrested the remaining three shrimps and two crabs of the Lian family to identify him? "

Wen Chu's brows moved slightly. At this time, Lian Twelve should have asked about the military and political situation in Fuguang, but what he was concerned about was the Nian's handprint in the capital thousands of miles away——

Su Li seriously corrected, "Someone reported that Nian's palm prints belonged to the Lian family, and the emperor didn't arrest the Lian family to identify them, but just summoned them to identify them.

The case has been settled, and Nian Zhanyin is not a member of the Lian family."

"Then, are you a good person or a treacherous minister?"

Just as Su Li was about to speak, he suddenly interjected, "Child, if I find out that you lied, I will regret it at any time."

Su Li smiled slightly, "Since the master doesn't trust Su, why do you ask?"

Lian Twelve-One raised his chin, hum, "Don't worry about me!"

Su Li smiled good-naturedly, "Su grew up in Fuguang until he was nine years old before going to the capital, and since then he has been studying behind closed doors, and has never dealt with Nian's palm print.

I don't dare to make rash judgments, I only know that others call him a traitor, and that he doesn't like my uncle very much."

Lian Twelve clicked his tongue, "I heard that your uncle is a rare good and honest official. He doesn't like your uncle, so it can be seen that he is indeed a treacherous eunuch."

Su Li smiled and didn't answer, and even Twelve didn't speak again.

After a while, the two boats that went to investigate the situation came back, indicating that everything was normal.

Su Li clasped his hands again and said, "According to the request of the head, the food and grass have been delivered in full.

The head of the family also ordered a person who is worthy enough to take back Mr. Wen himself. I don't know if Su is enough, is he qualified to bring Mr. Wen back? "

"Su Xiao Zhuangyuan, Su Shangshu's own nephew, naturally has enough weight!
Mr. Wen is worth four boats of grain and grass, but I don't know how much grain and grass is worth for the young champion Su? "

Lian Twelve looked at Su Li playfully, looking eager to try.

Ba Gu stepped forward subconsciously, Su Li raised her hand to stop her, and said sincerely, "The big boss has a way of stealing, the big boss has great ambitions, why hurt his reputation for a few ships of food and grass?"

"Tsk, kid, you don't need to tell me the truth of you scholars, I don't believe in that."

Su Li laughed, "Since that's the case, then in other words, Su Mo, why should the head of the family ruin his many years of foundation for a few ships of grain and grass?"

Lian Twelve looked cold, "Are you threatening me?"

Su Li smiled and raised his hands, "Su is just reminding the big boss that the big boss has accumulated more than ten years, don't let it go away for petty profits."

Lian Twelve sneered again and again, and ordered his subordinates to take away the four grain and grass boats first, and when the grain and grass boats had gone far, he ordered the boat to go back, and did not mention releasing Wen Chu at all.

Su Li stood at the bow of the boat and quietly watched his movements, neither stopping nor persuading him.

Wen Chu was very anxious, but he knew that Lian Twelve was moody, so he didn't dare to speak casually for fear of offending him.

After the boat sailed for a certain distance, Lian Twelve suddenly approached, and a beautiful face was almost pressed against Wen Chu's.

Wen Chu hurriedly leaned back, but he backed up again, snorting slightly, "Are you laughing at me now?
That kid surnamed Su is right in front of me, so I don't dare to catch him? "

Wen Chu reluctantly replied calmly, "A gentleman does something and doesn't do something. The head of the family made the right choice. Why would Wen laugh at the head of the house?"

Lian Twelve had already lost interest in this topic, and asked with interest, "An official like you who was caught by bandits and then redeemed with food and grass will be embarrassed even if he goes back? He will be laughed at by others, and his official career will be difficult." Will most of it be broken?"

"Wen's skills are not as good as others, and he was captured by the master, and all the consequences must be borne by himself."

"Then, why don't you just stay, I see that you are very happy on the island, Fifth Sister, Little Heidan, and the big girls and daughters-in-law on the island all like you."

Wen Chu looked at him sternly, "Lian Da is the head of the family, Wen will not be a thief, let alone a bandit."

"Don't follow the thief, let alone follow the bandit—"

Lian Twelve sneered again and again, and suddenly kicked him into the sea!
"Then you can feed the fish!"

At this time, Lian Twelve's boat was seven to eight feet away from Su Li's boat. Su Li saw it from a distance and ordered the boatman to speed up, but the distance was too far, and it was too late to rescue him.

Unexpectedly, when Wen Chuchu just fell into the water, he caught off guard and choked on a few sips of water, but then slowly stabilized and floated to the surface of the sea.

But he actually learned to swim with the children during these days.

Lian Twelve raised his eyebrows in surprise, and the guard beside him threw the harpoon in his hand, sneered and shouted, "Go to hell! The lackey of the dog emperor!"
