When Zisu left two-thirds of her silver to Tao Chenghai and Xiulan, apart from Qiu Yanzhu, Tao Chenghai, his wife and Qiu Shaofeng were all stunned and speechless.

a long time.

"Aren't you going to save the third brother?" Tao Chenghai frowned and looked at Zisu.

Zisu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "How is it possible, of course I want to save my third brother."

"Then..." Tao Chenghai looked at the silver in his hand, and said softly, "Master Mei said that the new commander is greedy."

The implication is that since Zi Su is an insatiable greedy person, with such a little money in Zisu's hand, how could he possibly save the third brother!

Zisu was silent for a moment, then a mocking smile appeared on her face, and she said in a deep voice, "Since I am greedy, I am afraid that even if it is given by gold and silver, I will not be satisfied."

Everyone couldn't help but fell silent.

Leaning slightly, Qiu Yanzhu looked at Zisu and said, "Have you already made up your mind?"

"I have an idea, but I have to go back and look at the actual situation to decide whether the idea is feasible or not."

She didn't want to say more, and everyone stopped asking.

Because Tao Chenghai has been able to take care of himself in the past few years, after Zisu left two-thirds of the banknotes, he left five bodyguards down, and told them that if this matter is over, they can go back to Yi directly. continent.The bodyguards are very happy!

Zisu, Qiu Yanzhu and the others continued on their way.

After another ten days or so, I finally arrived at Furong Town before sunset.

As early as about five miles away from Furong Town, Zisu rewarded the bodyguards who escorted them along the way and let them go back the same way.And also agreed with Qiu Yanzhu and Qiu Shaofeng, they just don't know each other!In order not to let the new commander extend his hand to the Qiu family again.

Zisu changed into coarse cloth clothes, took off all the hairpins on her head, and only tied her hair with a bamboo hairpin, and walked all the way to the town.

After four years of efforts, the official city of Furong Town already looks prosperous.

The road that used to be driven by two horses has now been driven by eight horses, and all of them are paved with bluestone slabs. Many shops on both sides of the road have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.The store flag fluttering in the wind was blown by the wind.

Zisu walked and looked all the way, because it was sunset, when the shops closed, and there were fewer people on the street at this time.She randomly chose a shop, picked out a waiter with a loyal face, stepped forward and asked, "Brother, I want to ask you about someone, is it convenient?"

Xiao Er rolled her eyes at Zi Su, seeing that she was not well dressed, but her eyebrows were neat and tidy, not annoying at all, and after a long time, it would make people feel refreshed, so she smiled kindly and said softly. Said: "Girl, please tell me."

Zisu then said softly: "What I want to ask is, did you hear about the third brother of the Tao family who shot and killed his uncle?"

Seeing that she was asking about this, Xiao Er immediately frowned, looked at Zisu solemnly, and said, "Do you want to know about him?" Then he sized Zisu up and down a few times, tilted his head slightly and looked out, Seeing that no one was paying attention here, he walked a few steps in and motioned for Zisu to go in and talk.

Zisu's heart sank, and she thought: Did something unexpected happen again?

At that moment, he hurriedly followed in, suppressed the panic in his heart, and said softly: "Brother, what's the matter?"

"Hey, what's your relationship with their family?" Xiaoer asked cautiously after looking at Zisu.

Zisu smiled and said softly: "I have nothing to do with their family, I just heard about it and wanted to inquire about it."

Xiaoer couldn't help but looked at Zisu a few more times, seeing that Zisu's eyes were clean, not like that kind of obedient person, he pondered for a while and said softly, "Are you from outside?"

"Yes!" Zisu nodded quickly and said, "Our aunt came here with the old man, and when she heard this rumor by chance, she wondered why her ex-nephew killed her uncle. Let me come out and inquire about it."

When Zisu said this, Xiao Er was relieved. He sighed, shook his head and said, "According to me, it should be killed. Not only should it be killed, but it should also be cut into pieces!"

"Oh?!" Zisu said hesitantly, "How did you say that?"

"Girl, you don't know." Xiaoer said bitterly: "Then Tao Erlang is not a thing." After finishing speaking, he spat hard and continued: "When he heard that his niece who can make money When he was seriously ill outside, he came to the door to trick Aunt Tao, saying that he would let her little niece Ye Luo return to her roots, and coaxed and tricked Aunt Tao into taking the silver from Aunt Tao's hand. After several months of living happily outside, after the money was spent, she ran to Tao Auntie’s house, lie to Aunt Tao that she met a robber on the road, and ask Aunt Tao to bring some more money.”

"The third brother of the Tao family pointed at his nose and scolded him, saying that he is a liar. He saw Tao Erlang go in and out of Yihong Building several times with his own eyes. Where did he find his second sister?"

"When Tao Erlang saw the truth was revealed, he broke the pot and smashed it. He just kept on doing nothing. He got a few gangsters and beat Aunt Tao and the third brother. Seeing that no money could be found in the house, he sent the youngest daughter of the Tao family, The fourth younger sister was kidnapped and is going to be sold into the Yihong Building."

Zisu felt her heart throbbing with anger, and finally suppressed the angry curse, and said in a deep voice, "Then the third brother of the Tao family shot and killed Tao Erlang?"

"No." Xiaoer shook his head, "The third brother of the Tao family pointed at Tao Erlang with a bow and arrow, and warned him that as long as the fourth sister is released, he will not care about his cheating of money before. No, Tao Erlang is relying on himself There were so many people, and they were confident, so they threw the fourth younger sister to the ground..."

"What?" Zisu covered her mouth and exclaimed, Mei Shengyu's letter didn't tell her about the fourth sister being thrown, and the young fourth sister was thrown by Tao Erlang... Zisu didn't even dare to think about it , her face turned pale immediately, "Then... how about the fourth sister of the Tao family?"

"Alas!" Xiao Er sighed, "What else can I do? I was thrown so hard that I could not move. The third brother of the Tao family was so angry that he shot the arrow in his hand and hit Tao Erlang right in the middle. throat. Tao Erlang was killed on the spot, and the third brother was arrested."

Zisu felt that her hands and feet were so cold that she had been submerged in ice water for thousands of years.

"Speaking of which, the shopkeeper Chai of Xiankeju is really a good person." Xiaoer said with admiration, "I just used money to clear up the relationship, and asked doctors and medicines for Aunt Tao and Third Brother Tao. It's just..." Xiaoer shook his head. , said with a vicissitudes of life: "The new official and old man only loves brother Kong Fang. Even if there are neighbors to testify, he still refuses to let the third brother go. He only said that murder is justified!"

Zisu nodded, she never thought Boss Chai could be so righteous!But the so-called flower does not have a thousand days, and people do not have a hundred days.Even if Boss Chai was willing to help him for so long because of his former friendship, I'm afraid, I'm afraid that the new commander will have his idea on him. If he doesn't come back, I'm afraid...

Zisu collected her thoughts and said softly, "Brother, do you know where the Tao family lives?"

Xiaoer looked at Zisu and said, "What, you plan to go see them?"

Zisu forced a smile and said in a hoarse voice, "That sounds pitiful, go and have a look, and help if you can."

Xiaoer nodded repeatedly, walked out of the door, and pointed to the empty street: "You go along this street, and when you come across an inn called Haolai, turn left and go forward, it's in that alley , which one is specific, you can find someone to ask when the time comes.”

Zisu nodded, thanked Xiaoer, and walked forward.

According to Xiaoer's words, when Zisu walked to the alley, she saw that the alley was clean, although they could not drive horses or carriages, they could still walk side by side.It's just that the houses on both sides are a bit old. It's the time when every family is cooking dinner, and the smoke is everywhere, and children run in and out from time to time.Seeing her as a stranger, they couldn't help but stamp their feet, looking at her curiously.

Zisu found a little girl who looked about six or seven years old, stepped forward and said softly, "Little sister, do you know where Tao Simei lives?"

"Fourth Sister!" The little girl looked up at Zisu with her ashen face, and said softly, "I know him. I often play with Fourth Sister."

"Really?" Zisu touched the little girl's head with a smile, and said softly, "Then can you take me to find her?"

The little girl hesitated for a while, and Zisu reached into the bag in her hand and took out a few candies wrapped in paper, and handed them over, "This is for you."

"Okay, I'll take you there." Without saying a word, the little girl took the candy and walked forward.

At this time, the other children watching all shouted at Zisu, "I'll take you there too, give me the candy!"

Zisu smiled and remained silent. There was still sugar in the bundle, but she left it for the third brother and fourth sister. Thinking of the third brother... Zisu's nose became sore, and she rubbed her sore nose , took a big breath.The little girl's voice sounded next to her ear, "Here we are, right here."

Zisu paused and looked up.

At a glance, I feel like my heart has been punched by someone.

She always thought that with the money she left behind, even if the third brother and the others did nothing, they would still be able to eat and drink and wait for her to return from Yizhou without worrying about food and clothing.But she never thought that she miscalculated Tao Erlang!

The house in front of me is really spacious. When I enter the small courtyard, I can imagine how clean and tidy it used to be, but now it is full of sores.Those smashed tables and chairs were randomly thrown in the courtyard, and a pomegranate tree that had grown very pleasantly was pushed to the ground, and its branches were half withered and yellow.

The tiles, which were originally as impenetrable as fish scales, were punched with a stick to the east and the west. The skylight shone from the broken hole and shone on a pale woman with dull wooden light in the center of the main room.

"Ms. Tao, someone is looking for you."

The little girl who brought him called out to Aunt Tao who looked numb in the middle of the main room.

Aunt Tao slowly closed her dull eyes and looked at Zisu.

Taking advantage of Aunt Tao's silence, Zisu turned her head and said to the children following behind, "Go back, your family will look for you later."

When the children saw that they couldn't get candy, they were told by the adults not to come here, so they immediately dispersed, shouting and running out.

Then Zisu stepped forward slowly, and after a few steps, she stood in front of Aunt Tao who was staring blankly.

Once upon a time, when she left, Aunt Tao was still a middle-aged woman who still had charm. See you today four years later. Zisu couldn't help the woman in front of her whose hair was half white and so thin that her cheekbones protruded. Aunt Tao was connected together.After a slight astringency in her heart, Zisu asked softly, "Where is Fourth Sister?"

"Fourth sister...you..." Aunt Tao's dull expression split apart as if she had been punched.She looked at Zisu, and gradually, as if a fire had burst out of dead ashes, she twitched her lips, and slowly raised her hand to touch Zisu's face, "Two...two...two sister?"

Zi Su nodded, "Where is Fourth Sister?"

Aunt Tao felt as if she had been shocked by an electric shock at first, but the next moment, she howled violently, "Two..."

Zisu quickly raised her hand to cover Aunt Tao's mouth, gritted her teeth and said, "You want to keep your third brother safe, so you shut up."

Aunt Tao trembled involuntarily when she heard the voice that seemed to seep from the cracks in the ice, but the next moment, she nodded desperately.

Zisu was still worried, and whispered in her ear: "I let go, you are not allowed to cry, and you are not allowed to shout?"

Aunt Tao nodded heavily again.

Only then did Zisu try to loosen the hand that was covering Aunt Tao's mouth.

Aunt Tao did as she promised, neither crying nor shouting.But the tears on his face were like water from a sluice, surging down.She twitched her lips, looked at Zisu, and the next moment, her whole body was limp and limp on the ground.

"Second...sister, second sister, you are finally back." Aunt Tao knelt down at the feet of Zisu on the ground, hugged her feet, and suppressed crying sounded again and again.

Zisu looked at the gray and dull head under her feet, and heard the hysterical crying, raised her hand and wiped the tears from her face fiercely, then lowered her body abruptly, and dragged Aunt Tao.

"Take me to see Fourth Sister."

Aunt Tao struggled to get up, and walked to a small room on the left, weeping in a low voice as she walked, "Second sister, thanks to Boss Chai, without him, your fourth sister might be gone."

While talking, the two entered the wing room.

Zisu's eyes fell on the thin figure with closed eyes on the bed.

She is so well-behaved that she can't wait for the fourth sister who is given to her in the whole world to lie there lifeless like a broken doll!The slap-like little face was as white as if the blood had been drained from his body, and his delicate brows were tightly knit even in sleep.

She must be in pain!

The tears that Zisu had just held back burst out with a bang.

"Fourth Sister!" She released Aunt Tao from her hand, and rushed forward a few steps, and walked to the bed, but she raised her hand and dared not let it go, for fear that any movement of her would aggravate the pain of the little person on the bed. pain. "Fourth sister, fourth sister..."

The fourth younger sister who was in a coma seemed to hear the voice of the person she had called countless times, and she couldn't help but follow Zisu's voice: "Second sister, second sister, come back, fourth sister is dying!"

Zisu couldn't help crying "Wow" when she heard the fourth sister's sleepy murmur.

"Fourth sister, wake up, the second sister is back. You wake up and look at the second sister... The second sister brought you a lot of delicious food and beautiful clothes..."

"Second...sister..."

There was a soft groan mingled with pain in his ears, and Zisu suddenly raised his head, meeting the slightly opened eyes of the fourth younger sister.

"Fourth Sister, where does it hurt you, tell Second Sister!" Zisu raised her hand and gently touched Fourth Sister's face, as light as treating a rare treasure, she whispered while she was crying: " Fourth sister is not afraid, second sister is back."

The fourth sister blinked, as if she didn't believe that the person in front of her was really her second sister, but when she felt Zisu's soft feather-like hand and Zisu's cold teardrops on her hand, she suddenly woke up. The most important thing is that her second sister is back.Almost subconsciously, she pulled the corners of her mouth, wanting to smile at Zisu, but she didn't want to pull the corners of her lips, and she didn't know where she pulled it, and her head hurt again.She frowned tightly, and when the pain had recovered a little, she said softly: "Second sister doesn't cry, fourth sister doesn't hurt!"

Although he said that there was no pain in his mouth, two lines of clear tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.

Zisu stepped forward, leaned over, gently kissed Fourth Sister's forehead, and said in a choked voice, "Sister Si speaks out when it hurts, don't hold back, listen to Second Sister."

"It really doesn't hurt!" Fourth Sister said softly, "Second Sister, don't cry, Second Sister went to save Third Brother, who was arrested by them."

Zisu nodded while kissing the fourth sister's forehead, and said in a choked voice, "Second sister will save third brother, and fourth sister will get well too. When the time comes, second sister will take you to live in a big house, eat delicious food and wear clothes." good-looking."

Fourth Sister smiled weakly and nodded after thinking about it, but her head was so heavy that she couldn't move at all.Not only could she not move, but she was dizzy because of her subconscious actions, but she tried her best to open her eyes and looked at Zisu.

Aunt Tao had already cried and fell to the side.

"Aunt Tao, is Fourth Sister feeling better today..."

Zi Su straightened up and wiped the tears from her face, the footsteps had already reached the threshold, and the voice of the visitor stopped abruptly.

The next moment, Zisu was facing a handsome face with Chinese characters, thick and straight eyebrows, a high nose, and thick but not naive lips.There is a bit of deja vu vaguely!In a blink of an eye, Zi Su guessed who it was.

"Brother Dashuan." Zisu stepped forward to salute.

The moment Chai Dashuan saw Zisu, the words of his parents flooded in his mind, almost the next moment, he guessed who the person in front of him was!Before he could recover from the stupefaction, Zi Su's words "Brother Da Shuan" sounded.Chai Dashuan immediately smiled and stepped forward, put the medicine bag in his hand on the slanted table in the room, and went forward to greet Zisu.

"Sister Zisu, isn't it?"

Zisu nodded with a smile, glanced at the medicine Chai Dashuan brought on the table, bent her knees and said, "Zisu thanked Brother Dashuan, godfather and godmother for their care."

"Why are you being so polite?" Chai Dashuan gave a weak support, and continued after Zisu stood up straight, "It's all right, since you recognize my parents, the fourth younger sister and third younger brother are also my younger brothers and sisters. If you can’t help, it should be.”

Zisu smiled gratefully, turned her head to appease the fourth sister, and said, "Fourth sister, the second sister is going to talk to Brother Dashuan, and come back to accompany you later, okay?"

"Okay." Fourth Sister said obediently.

Zisu said to Aunt Tao who was crying on the ground and was about to faint, "Fourth Sister is in your hands."

Aunt Tao struggled to stand up, nodded, and said in a choked voice, "Go, I'll make medicine for Simei."

Zisu then said to Chai Dashuan: "Brother Dashuan, let's talk in another place."

"it is good."

Chai Dashuan heaved a sigh of relief as he looked at Zisu who was in a state of chaos.

To be honest, if Zisu doesn't come back, he really doesn't know how long he can hold on!It is to support Aunt Tao and Fourth Sister Tao for a lifetime. From the current strength of the Chai family, there is no problem.However, the new commander who eats people and doesn't even spit out scum really terrifies them.

It is said that it is a change of place, but in fact it is from the left wing to the right wing.

Zisu doesn't want people to know the news of her return, lest the new commander come to the door, so she cut to the chase and said to Chai Dashuan: "Brother Dashuan, I'm afraid I need you to take care of my family these few days, it's not convenient for me." Show up."

Chai Dashuan was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but said, "Sister Zisu, what are your plans?"

Zisu nodded, "I will find a way to rescue my third brother, but I don't want to directly negotiate with the new commander. It's not time yet."

Chai Dashuan only thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay, if you need help with anything, just say so."

"It's nothing else." Zisu glanced at the room on the left and said softly, "Brother Dashuan will be great as long as he helps me take care of my mother and my fourth sister." After a pause, he continued: "Dashuan Brother, what did the doctor who saw my fourth sister's injury say?"

Chai Dashuan sighed, and said softly: "The doctor said that he hurt his head, so he can only rest in rest. When the blood in the brain is gone, he will be fine."

Zisu was startled, but right now there was no other way, and it was impossible to open the skull to remove the blood clot like in modern times!But still worried: "Is there any fear of life?"

"No." Chai Dashuan hastily said: "The doctor said no, if Miss Zisu is not at ease, and she settles down in the future, it is also possible to go to the capital and invite famous experts to look at it."

"Okay, as long as there is no danger of life." Zisu took a deep breath, and said softly: "Right now, getting the third brother out first is the top priority."

Chai Dashuan nodded, "That's right. Although the cells have been sorted out and there will be no physical pain, it's not good to always be locked up like this."

Zisu was silent for a moment, looked up at the dilapidated house, raised the corners of her mouth mockingly, and said coldly, "Widow Chen did it?"

Chai Dashuan nodded, blushed a little and said, "I'm sorry, I can't protect Madam and Fourth Sister."

"I don't blame you." Zisu said hastily: "Thanks to you and godfather and mother, fourth sister can ask for medical advice. You tell godfather and godmother, I will go to see them when things are done." Right now, don't tell anyone about me."

"Well, don't worry, I know."

Since there was still work to be done in the shop, Chai Dashuan left after a short stay.

After Zi Su waited for Chai Dashuan to leave, she went back to the left wing and called Aunt Tao to Simei's bed.

"Do you want third brother to come back?"

The fourth younger sister on the bed looked at Zisu and whispered, "Second sister, I'll listen to you." After a pause, she turned her eyes to look at Aunt Tao, "Mother also listens to you."

Aunt Tao nodded repeatedly.

Zisu touched the fourth sister's face affectionately, and said softly: "Don't tell anyone about my return. Before the third brother comes back, I won't come to the door again. If you have something to do, you can ask Brother Dashuan."

"Why?" Aunt Tao looked at Zisu in confusion.

Zisu glanced at Aunt Tao, and said with a sad expression on her face, "I need money to save my third brother. I have a serious illness and spent all my money. Where can I get the money to save my third brother now? If the commander knows that I have no money." If you give it to him, the third brother will be in danger."

When Aunt Tao heard that Zisu said that she didn't bring any money back, her face immediately turned pale, and then she heard Zisu say, "If there is no money to give to the commander, the third brother will be in danger." She quickly said, "We sold this house."

Zisu shook her head, "This can't satisfy him." Seeing that not only Aunt Tao, but also the fourth sister on the couch frowned, with a very worried look on her face, she said softly, "Anyway, do as I say. , I will definitely be able to save my third brother."

"My mother and I both listen to you."
