I rewrote family history

Chapter 123 Zhao's dog is dead
Before the dinner in the courtyard was ready, Er Chaozi and Xu Cong went to visit Zhao's house.With an official status, even though he was only a regimental commander's guard, Mr. Zhao did not dare to underestimate him. Not long after Xu Cong and Er Chaozi stepped into the front yard, the whole family came forward to greet him .

"Nephew, who is this?"

Master Zhao looked at Xu Cong and asked knowingly.

He knew the identity of the person coming from the door.

"It's Xiao Baozi's father."

Xu Cong started the introduction.

Today's Er Chaozi is different from the previous rickshaw driver, so he has to be careful.

He also thought up his speech on the way, taking care of Er Chaozi's decent speech.

"Two years ago, Uncle Chao's family had a big change, so he had no choice but to sell Xiao Baozi to the Zhao family. The father and daughter were separated. Thanks to Uncle Zhao's help, Xiao Baozi was temporarily adopted. It's me who came here today. As a lobbyist, I hope that Uncle Zhao can let the father and daughter meet again, and talk about the family relationship..."

These words are very ironic.Not only Master Zhao showed a smile, but even Er Chaozi, who had been keeping a straight face, relaxed a little.

Selling children and prostitutes is not such a pleasant thing.This kind of person will be accused of being worthless anywhere, and will be looked down upon by the world.However, to put it another way, it is much easier to accept.

"A redemption is a redemption. I sold it for a few dollars, and I'll buy it back at a price. I've been a soldier all these years...and I've saved some money. It should be enough to redeem my daughter, right?"

Just when Mr. Zhao was about to cough to answer Xu Cong's words, Er Chaozi suddenly interrupted him in a cold voice.He took out a small bag of silver from the pocket of his military uniform. The exact amount was unknown, but when he took it out, the silver coins in the bag collided with each other, and there were crisp silver sounds.No matter how you look at it, there are twenty or thirty silver coins.

It is unrealistic to expect a big soldier to come up with so much money.

Xu Cong's heart skipped a beat.

What Auntie Big Tooth said was unsubstantiated gossip.But he has experienced Erchaozi's money theft, and he knows that Erchaozi's falling into a bandit is not a fairy tale, but a real possibility.

A soldier is a potential murderer...

Mr. Zhao's complexion froze for a moment, and he cupped his hands, "Boss, you don't have to take the money, you can just take it away. In the past two years, my Zhao family has not lost money to her for food or clothing. And Yueyin. I haven’t treated her badly.”

"We are still neighbors."

he stressed.

Mrs. Zhao on the side also said: "Boss, I have always treated Xiao Baozi as a goddaughter, and I didn't let her do heavy work every day. It's because you, the father, are not here, otherwise she will worship me as a godmother She is so good, my daughters got married in the early years, she looks like my second daughter..."

The two masters of the Zhao family had spoken, and only Zhao Jiashu was left with a tense face and remained silent.

Xu Cong knew that although Zhao Jiashu was young and mature, he was still a little arrogant in his heart.A person like Er Chaozi is nothing if not relying on his military skin.To put it bluntly, human life is worthless, if it wasn't for Auntie Da Ya who worked in Zhao's house back then and helped Er Chaozi, a girl of Xiao Baozi's age would not even want a mansion.

Girls who act as maidservants should start at the age of seven or eight.Girls in this age group are so tame and not wild.If you are young, you will have to take care of it for a few years, and you will not be able to do heavy work.If you are older, in your teens, then you will seduce the master and young master of the family...

Er Chaozi is not a kind person!

"As much as you want, just as much. Money... I don't need it."

"If I took my daughter away, I don't know how people outside will poke my spine and scold my eighteen generations of ancestors."

Er Chaozi shook the silver bag.

"Xu Cong, look at this..."

Mr. Zhao looked distressed, and he turned to look at the middleman.

The Zhao family is not short of a little money.It's a small matter after collecting money.But he couldn't figure out what the "boss" really thought in his heart.There may be troubles in collecting money.

Seeing this, Xu Cong sighed inwardly, and stepped forward to persuade him, "The two uncles might as well take a step back, how about Xiao Baozi redeeming it at the original price? As for the expenses spent in Zhao's family for the past two or three years, it should be regarded as friendship. "

At this time, Xiao Baozi was very different from when he was sold.He had seen her a few times in Zhao's house, she was fine-skinned and tender-skinned, although she could not be said to have been reborn, but she was not much different from Miss Gaomen.If Xiaobaozi is sold now, it will definitely not be at the previous price.

So the Zhao family took a step back by asking Er Chaozi to redeem Xiao Baozi at the original price.

Of course, on the bright side, this is not the case.Instead, people on both sides talked about friendship.The Zhao family took care of Xiao Baozi to help the neighbors, and Er Chaozi refused to let the Zhao family suffer, so he repaid the principal...

"Boss, do you see?"

Master Zhao asked anxiously.

Er Chaozi nodded, opened the silver bag, took out three silver dollars, and handed them over, "My daughter sold it for two five dollars, now I'll give you three dollars, I don't owe you anything."

When he said the last four words, his voice became more serious.

Wanting to be a glamorous person, but also petty, with blind thoughts behind it.When Xu Cong saw this scene, he immediately understood what Er Chaozi was thinking.It is no different from the last time that he first paid back his sick money and then stole the money.

"Dad, you're here..."

While Mr. Zhao was collecting the cash, Lan Hua brought Xiao Baozi to the front yard.When Xiao Baozi saw his own father, he looked a little timid.She took a few steps, "Father, you came to see me."

The father and daughter are more than ten steps apart.

But Xiao Baozi refused to go forward, no one stopped her.

It was as if there was a high wall standing in front of them invisible.

Three years is not a long time, very short, and everyone hasn't changed much.But for the seven-year-old Xiao Baozi, three years is a very, very long time, and she probably has forgotten the life on the other side of the wall.The person in front of her, because of blood relationship, she knew who he was, but he felt strange.

"Xiao Baozi, Dad bought you a rattle."

Er Chaozi took out a new rattle from his arms, bent down, and smiled all over his face, "Father remembers your words, the rattle is hidden for you, and it is still there. Father will take you to enjoy yourself..."

One step, two steps.The little girl with the double bun moved. She took a few steps and looked back at Lan Hua.Lanhua is her servant who teaches her, her sister and master.Orchid cast an encouraging look.She moved again, her steps getting faster and faster, until she fell into the arms of the man in military uniform.

Immediately afterwards, the small projectiles on both sides of the rattle drum hit the drum surface, and there was a crisp drum sound.

The drumming continued from Zhao's front yard to the back yard.When passing by the corridor waist, it unexpectedly caused Zhao's dog to bark.The barking of the dogs drowned out the sound of the drums.Then there was another sound of firecrackers resounding through the sky.No, it was gunshots. The Zhao family had heard gunshots last year.They squatted on the ground as if in emergency.As soon as the gunshot rang out, everything was silent except for the whimpering and howling of a dying dog.

The soft sound of the chains colliding followed.

The bloody dog ​​stood up.It was bound, the chains taut like a straight arrow.It could do nothing but yell at whoever shot it.

The yelling didn't last long.It was bleeding out, the dog's legs and body were bright red, and the yellow dog hair was wet with blood in locks and locks.With a plop, it fell to the ground, its black dog mouth slightly opened and closed, as if it wanted to shout again with all its strength.But after its throat moved, it finally calmed down and died there.

"Daughter, don't be afraid..."

"Daddy killed it already."

Er Chaozi put the Browning pistol back into the gun case on his waist. He turned around and comforted his daughter who was pale with fright from the dog barking behind him.

"I don't like this dog for a long time. It keeps barking and barking all the time."

"It's good to die, it deserves to die!"

He also cursed dissatisfied.

The courtyard is adjacent to the Zhao family.When Zhao's dog yelled, all the tenants in the courtyard could hear it.After a long time, everyone is tired of this dog.It's just because this is Master Zhao's dog, everyone can only hold back their inner displeasure and gradually get used to the dog's barking.

Killing the dog today was also to fulfill a small wish that he had been awakened in his sleep.

It stands to reason that Xu Cong should be relieved that a dog who was hated by others died.But he couldn't be happy.In broad daylight, Er Chaozi actually fired a gun at Zhao's house.Still firing without warning.Even though it was only a dog that was killed, who knows whether it will shoot people.

Shooting people should not be dared.

He can be sure.

It's just that this kind of fate is in the hands of others. It's really uncomfortable.

"Little Black..."

Xiao Baozi came out from behind Er Chaozi. She looked at the dog and shed tears.After living in Zhao's house for so long, the dog would not really bite her even though he saw her still barking.When no one is around, the dog is her good companion.

But at this moment the dog named "Xiao Hei" died.

She was executed by shooting in the name of justice by her father.

"It's just a dog." Er Chaozi glanced at his daughter, waved his hand, and said casually, "I'll buy you a puppy when I get home, you just keep it."

Little Baozi stopped crying,
She shook the rattle slowly, as if she didn't care anymore.

The master and servants of the Zhao family also came back to their senses and continued to guide Er Chaozi.As for claiming the life of a dog, they dare not.

The road has come to an end.

This is a wing room where the maid lives.

Pushing open the door, a group of people walked in.

"Here... used to be the place where I lived together with Sister Lanhua and Sister Qiuhe. Sister Qiuhe redeemed herself and left. Only Sister Lanhua and I are left here. When Sister Qiuhe left, she also left a lot for me. Little baby..."

Entering the house, Xiao Baozi put on a gloomy expression.She walked to her bed and said happily.Her bed is very simple, supported by two mahogany boxes.The bedding is also half new.But tidy up is very clean.

"Qiu He's baby?"

Xu Cong was taken aback at the mention of this familiar name.He hasn't seen Qiu He for nearly seven or eight months.He knew where she lived, not far away, in the tinsmith's shop on Hemiao Street.She married a tinsmith as his wife.After getting married, according to the agreement, he should not look for her.

Therefore, he never looked for it.

He wanted to ask Xiao Baozi what treasure Qiu He had left for her.But he still chose to bury these words in his heart and never spoke.He guessed that the so-called treasure... probably wasn't anything precious.Maybe it's just a memory.

"Xiao Baozi, you can just pick a few things to take with you. Dad will buy you other things later. Remember, Dad is taking you to enjoy the blessings..."

The reason why everyone came to the servant girl's room was because Xiao Baozi redeemed himself and wanted to move out.But when Er Chaozi saw Xiao Baozi packed away this one and took that one away.Finally, I couldn't hold my breath anymore, and gave me a lesson.

"Yes, Dad."

Xiao Baozi stopped his hands obediently.

The family belongings are almost packed, there are three or four bags in total, and there is nothing valuable.The valuable things belong to the Zhao family, not to her.Even some seemingly worthless things belong to the Zhao family.It's just that the masters of the Zhao family didn't speak.

However, just when everyone was about to leave.Xiao Baozi suddenly realized something, she got under the bed, and took out a dusty oiled paper bag from behind two mahogany boxes.The oil-paper package was not tightly closed, it was wrapped casually, and it could be seen from the gaps that it contained several snacks.

There are some small green molds on the surface of the dim sum.Looks like it's been around for a while.

"It's just some snacks. When I get home, Dad will buy them for you..."

Er Chaozi rubbed his daughter's head pitifully.

"Ah."

Xiao Baozi nodded.

Everyone rushed from the backyard to the front yard.When leaving the front yard, Mrs. Zhao chased after her.Mrs. Zhao left for a while when she entered the back house.She bumped her feet and walked very slowly.She has little feet.When she got to Xiao Baozi's side, she handed a handful of money to the girl, "This is your remaining moon money. You are still young, so I saved it for you, lest you spend it recklessly, wait When you grow up, you can't save anything."

There are odds and wholes in this coin, mostly silver cents and copper dollars.

"Thank you ma'am."

Xiao Baozi bowed to thank him.

"You're welcome. Thank you...just thank you for having a good father."

"If you want to come here one day, you can come and have a look."

"However, Lanhua has reached the age of marriage. If you come to visit again, you probably don't have any acquaintances. They're all gone..."

Mrs. Zhao shook her head and sighed.

The Zhao family is not a rich family, only four or five servants.In addition, due to the extortion last year, the Zhao family's shop has been sold out a lot, and the family has gradually begun to decline.The maidservants left one after another, and they didn't make any new ones....

"Yes, ma'am."

Xiao Baozi replied in a muffled voice.

Xu Cong, Er Chaozi and Xiaobaozi left the Zhao family and refused the Zhao family's banquet.

"Uncle Chao, where do you live?"

On the road, after walking for a while, Xu Cong asked out of curiosity.He was in Zhao's house, and he heard Er Chaozi say more than once that he took Xiao Baozi out to enjoy the blessings.But as far as he knew, Er Chaozi had just returned to the county seat.The former rented house is now rented by Xinzi's father, and there is no place for Erchao's father and daughter to rest.

"I'm going to buy a house."

"Xiao Baozi... send her to the women's school in a few days to learn some knowledge."

Er Chaozi paused and replied.After replying, he bought a candied haws sold on the street and handed it to Xiao Baozi.

"I have only one daughter, her."

he said.
