Escape from the desert

Chapter 174 Shangguan Mingzhi's Thoughts

If it weren't for those three lives, Cheng Dezhu would not have been sentenced to death. It is not the fault of his son who taught his father. Cheng Wenjun was young and developed such a vicious character because of his father's connivance, so the punishment of beheading fell on him body.

When the Cheng family father and son were dragged down, their cries resounded across the sky. Compared with being hit by the board, the two were more afraid of the subsequent punishment.

"The young master Cheng has been used to Jingui since he was a child. He stretched out his clothes, stretched out his hands to eat, and opened his mouth. He went to the salt factory. I don't know if he can live for three months." Shangguan Mingzhi shook his head, secretly glad that his son is a brainless Yes, although he is a little stupid, but he is kind and kind to others in his heart, otherwise, he, a father, would have to lose his head too.

Jiang Yan glanced over, wondering, "We're out of the county office, why is Shangguan still following us?"

It’s okay for him to watch the case while the county magistrate, after all, the common people can watch, not to mention that he is also a good friend of Li County magistrate, but when Li county magistrate and himself went to the backyard to chat about the farm tool incident in private, he also followed him. After leaving the county government and still following, what is this for?

Shangguan Mingzhi's smile froze on his face, and he looked awkwardly at the other young men who also cast him blank and puzzled looks.

It will be noon, the scorching sun shines on everyone, everyone can't help squinting their eyes, Shangguan Mingzhi also slightly closed his eyelashes, but his eyes fell on Jiang Yan.

The woman in a coarse cloth blouse looked at him calmly and clearly, and the breeze brushed her strands of hair scattered at her temples. Under the sun, her whole body seemed to be radiating radiance, and the outline traced by light and shadow was even more vivid. obvious.

His eyes were in a trance, and his thoughts drifted to the nonsense that his stupid son often said about asking Aunt Jiang to be his stepmother. For some reason, his heart burst into eagerness, as if he didn't feel disgusted by this matter, and even had some vague expectations.

"Shangguan shopkeeper? What are you thinking?"

"Why are you still distracted?"

"Could it be heatstroke?"

Jiang Yan waved her hand in front of him, seeing that Shangguan Mingzhi hadn't recovered for a long time, she couldn't help frowning, and patted his face unceremoniously.

"No, no, no! I'm fine. I just lost my mind on something!" Shangguan Mingzhi, who came back to his senses, almost died. Apart from Jiang Yan's slap marks on his face, there was also a strange blush on his face. Xiaosi was discovered, and he stuttered when he opened his mouth.

He took the lead and raised his voice: "The Cheng family's matter has been settled. It's rare for Aunt Jiang's family to come to the county seat. I'll be the boss. How about inviting some of you to my Chang'an Restaurant for a light meal?"

Just as Jiang Yan was about to shake her head to refuse, she heard him continue: "Xuan'er has been bothering you a lot during this time, I've been trying to find a time to invite your family to dinner, and today just happens to happen, so Aunt Jiang must not refuse."

Jiang Yan turned her head to look at the children, and it was indeed time to eat, so she nodded: "There is no rush to eat, but I have to bring one more person, is it possible?"

"What's the matter, where is the person? Let's wait in the restaurant first, and I'll send someone to invite him."

Jiang Yan took a step back: "The Huichun Hall is not far ahead, let's just go there."

With that said, a group of people walked towards Huichun Hall under the sun. Qiao Le had already explained his things in Huichun Hall, and packed all his luggage. He was only waiting for the person Jiang Yan said to come to pick him up. He was a little excited and a little stunned to start becoming a teacher.

Looking at the passers-by outside the door, he felt that all this was like a dream. Although he didn't know what the future would be like, he was full of expectations. As long as he could be accompanied by books, it would be better than being in a medical center. He pursed his lips He smiled, his eyes flickering.

At this moment, Jiang Yan and her group walked to the gate of Huichun Hall, and Jiang Yan saw the stunningly beautiful man sitting at the gate surrounded by a pile of luggage.

The man sat calmly on the steps beside the door, looking a little lonely, lying on the ground in a gray long gown, but he was just holding a huge package, and looked at the street calmly with dark eyes.

There was alienation and indifference on his face, obviously a handsome face that stunned all sentient beings, but because of the indifferent expression, he seemed incompatible with all of this, as if he was separated from this bustling street into two distinct worlds.

To Jiang Yan, he looks like a painting.

"Mr. Qiao, we have come and kept you waiting." Jiang Yan shouted with a smile.

Qiao Le's eyes lit up, she stood up with her bundle in her arms, bowed to Jiang Yan and the others and made a simple salute.

A warm and clear voice said: "I didn't wait long, I'm very happy that you can come."

He said it calmly and earnestly, he was really scared for a moment, all this was a dream, no one would pick him up today... It's okay, it's okay.

Jiang Yan smiled sincerely, her eyebrows and eyes were full of joy: "I'm only happy if you can go to Linjiacun, no... not only me, but my children are also happy." She patted Lin Bei and Jiang Hao My brain: "This is my fourth son, Lin Bei, and this is my nephew, named Erbi... I don't know he has a name, but Jiang Hao."

"Both of them want to take the exam for high officials, and I will trouble you to focus on teaching in the future." She patted Lin Dong and Lin Nan again as she spoke: "This is my eldest son Lin Dong and second son Lin Nan. I am busy with my family business during the day, and only have time to study at night."

Several people made nonsensical salutes to Qiao Le one after another, still imitating the way Qiao Le did before, especially Jiang Hao, whose big eyes were wide open, and his swarthy pupils carefully sized Qiao Le up and down, When he met Qiao Le's smiling eyes, he blushed immediately.

He knew it was the gentleman who would teach them how to read after coming to see him, but he didn't expect this new gentleman to be so good-looking, he was the best-looking person he had ever seen!

Lin Bei had a smile on his face. He still remembered this person. The first time he followed his mother to a bookstore to buy books was in this person's store. He did not expect to become their teacher now.

Jiang Yan smiled and stepped forward to help carry the luggage: "These are all your luggage? Is it all here?"

Qiao Le turned around and helped carry it, stacking things together: "It's all here, I'm all alone, and I have nothing else but these books."

Lin Bei looked at those books excitedly: "There are so many books, all of which we have never seen before."

Jiang Hao: "That's right, that's right, look at this, stereotyped essays, Biao Wen said, how many taels are there! But there are so many books here!"

Qiao Le's luggage was only the package in his arms, and the rest were all books. Jiang Yan guessed that at least half of the books in his bookstore were here after it closed.

Shangguan Mingzhi looked at the group of people chatting enthusiastically, especially Qiao Le, who seemed to have integrated into the Lin family, chatting with Aunt Jiang so calmly, he couldn't help saying: "Let's go to eat first, it will be laborious to carry these things. , after dinner, I asked someone to come over and help move it."
