Big businessman and little fisherman

Chapter 40 Tang Qi
Lu Quan also followed Lu Yange and looked at the mother and child a few more times.

Seeing the mother and son walking towards Shen Qinglian in front of the county government gate, she lowered her voice and said: "This lady should be surnamed Tang, her husband and your uncle are sworn brothers."

At this time, the only one who can stand with Shen's is probably the wife of the Tang family.

Lu Yange's heart skipped a beat: "Tang Qi?"

Lu Quan looked at Lu Yange with some surprise: "You also know Tang Qi?"

Although he had never met Tang Qi, he had heard of this person, he was bold and righteous, and he was very close to Chen Shidun.

The Tang family and the Chen family are both from Nanyang, and they are considered wealthy in the local area.Speaking of which, the Tang family has deeper roots than the Chen family.

It's just that Tang Qi was born in a side branch of the Tang family, and grew up in the market since he was a child. He and Chen Shidun, who had the same family background, were brothers who grew up together.

Seeing Lu Quan's question, Lu Yange didn't think much about it, but shook his head honestly: "I just remember that there is such a person, but I don't remember what he looks like."

Hearing what she said, Lu Quan thought about it and thought it was nothing strange.

Tang Qi and Chen Shidun are good friends, and they are neighbors. It is not unusual for Xiaosi to have heard or seen it.

"This Tang Qi ran away with your uncle, and there has been no news of it until now. However, the Tang family and the Chen family have always lived apart from each other, and they have always been like brothers. Your aunt and this Tang Qi's wife were also childhood playmates. Partner, the relationship has always been good."

Hearing what Lu Quan said, Lu Yange asked curiously, "Since both of them have run away, why is my aunt in jail, but Aunt Tang's is not in jail like my aunt?"

Lu Quan had inquired about this matter in detail: "Your uncle is the head of the pavilion, and your uncle let him go. It has nothing to do with Tang Qi. Some people said that Tang Qi ran away with your uncle, and some people said that Tang Qi ran away with your uncle. Some people say that Tang Qi and your uncle fell into the grass and became bandits together. Others say that this Tang Qi went to the capital to do business, and was not with Chen Shidun. Anyway, no one has seen your uncle and Tang Qi together. It just so happened that your uncle ran away, and this Tang Qi didn't come back. Naturally, this crime cannot fall on the human Tang Qi."

While the father and son were talking, Mrs. Tang had already led her son into a conversation with Shen Qinglian, and within a few words, she saw Shen Qinglian get into the Tang family's car without hesitation.

Tang Jinming arrived in an ox cart without a shed, which was padded with wooden boards and covered with straw mats.The two ladies got into the ox cart and sat cross-legged. Tang Jinming didn't drive, but led the ox cart to the city gate.

Seeing Shen Qinglian following the mother and son of the Tang family, Lu Quan hesitated a little.

It's all here, do you want to take Xiao Si to meet this aunt of the Shen family?
"father."

Lu Yangge stood up, and lightly tugged at Lu Quan's lapel, "If this fish is not sold, it will die."

Half a bucket of wild fish had been stored for more than an hour, some of them had turned white, and some of them looked not very energetic.

If you don't sell it, if you become a dead fish, you really won't be able to sell it for a few copper coins.

Lu Quan didn't come here today to sell fish, and he led Lu Yange to watch Shen Qinglian get out of prison, which was considered a fulfillment of his heart.

"It's not for sale, let's go back, your mother..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Lu Yangge running towards the bullock cart with the barrel in his arms.

"Ma'am, are you buying fish? This is a fish that was just fished out of Honghu Lake this morning, and it's still alive."

Lu Yange reached out and fished out a lively fish from the bucket and raised it above his head, "Look, most of them are alive. You can go back to make soup or cook them with miso."

Before Lu Yange came to Nanyang, Qiu's little face had already been carefully wiped with a layer of pot bottom ash.

Originally, Yuxue was a cute little girl, wearing a coarse cloth and combing her horns, but because of her dark face, she looked more and more like the silly boys that can be seen everywhere in the countryside.

Mrs. Tang frowned slightly: "No."

This kid and his father have been squatting here for half a day, and they haven't failed to sell a single fish, but now they dare to come out to sell it, and I don't know who gave him the courage.

Tang Jinming, who was leading the cow, immediately turned around and stretched out his hand to grab Lu Yangge's collar: "Kid, stay away, and be careful not to bump into you."

Xu Shi pulled it a little too hard, and the bucket held in front of Lu Yangge shook, and the half-full water in the bucket poured out a little, and the two small fish also fell to the ground.

"oops……"

Seeing that he had gotten into trouble, Tang Jinming scratched his head in embarrassment. Jun's face blushed, and he squatted down and stretched out his hand to pick up the small fish.

Unexpectedly, the boy who had just called his wife to buy fish had already squatted down quickly, picked up the two small fish that had fallen and threw them into the wooden bucket.

"What about you fish..."

Before Tang Jinming could say anything, Lu Yange happily ran towards Lu Quan, who was sluggish by the side, holding the wooden barrel: "Father, they don't want it, let's change."

"Hey, you kid, I ask you how you sell the fish?"

Tang Jinming is not very old, only sixteen or seventeen years old, but calling a child as old as Lu Yange a child is nothing.

Lu Yange turned around and waved at Tang Jinming: "It's not for sale."

"Not for sale?"

Tang Jinming was a little strange. Even Shen Qinglian, who had indifferent eyes, turned her eyes away from the void and looked at the children who were bouncing and running towards the shade of the trees.

The half-worn clothes looked like adult clothes, with several finely stitched patches on them.The pair of cloth shoes on my feet are a little too big, I'm afraid my sister in the family can't wear them. When I run, I step on the ground and emit light dust.

Such children can be seen everywhere in the countryside.

But looking at the distant figure, Shen Qinglian suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, but it was a pity that the child was running with his back to her, and the man who was facing her had a simple and honest smile, as if he didn't know him.

"Brother Ming..."

Shen Qinglian touched her sleeve subconsciously, wanting to say that you go and buy his fish for me.After groping for nothing, I remembered that when I got out of prison just now, where did I get the money to buy fish.

How ridiculous!

I live in distress, but I can't see the suffering of others.

A woman like her should be deceived by Chen Shidun, and reduced from a lady to a prisoner.

"What's the matter, auntie?"

When Tang Jinming turned her head, Shen Qinglian lowered her head slightly, and raised her hands to carefully smooth the wrinkles on the sleeves on both sides: "It's okay, go back."

Go back, the Chen family owes her the Shen family, and she wants to get it back one by one.

Seeing her son not moving, Mrs. Tang raised her hand and poked him on the forehead: "Let's go, why are you in a daze."

"oh oh……"

Watching the father and son walking towards the side alley with the wooden bucket, Tang Jinming looked away, scratched his head embarrassingly, and explained to the two women in the car: "I originally wanted to buy his fish."

The fish looked like it had been caught for a long time, and if it was not sold, it would all die.

There is still a big difference in the price of dead fish and fresh fish.

"What kind of fish to buy, how many wild fish are still missing at home?"

Mrs. Tang glared at her son angrily, shouldn't she go back earlier now?

With Shen Qinglian's temperament, the three months in the county jail was probably a nightmare she would never mention in her life.

It's not too early to go back and let her freshen up and unload, buy some fish.

This child, raised with his foolish father, is of no importance.
