Pirate Song

This time back to Shaoxing, Gao Huaiyuan did not bring a lot of people with him. Instead, he dressed lightly and only took Liu Er, Li Tong, Huang Yan, and Zhou Hao together on the road, so that he would not be ostentatious on the road, and he would not have to worry about returning home. After Shaoxing, let Gao Jian see something. After all, he is still young, and it is not easy to explain to Gao Jian by taking slaves without authorization.

The group of five people who left Shaoxing more than a year ago drove two mule carts, loaded with some local products from Daye's hometown, and headed towards Shaoxing on the road.

This time Gao Huaiyuan chose to go back to Shaoxing by land. Although it is more comfortable to take a boat from the Yangtze River by water, it will take more time. After arriving in Jiankang, he has to disembark and go back to Shaoxing by land. After they return to Shaoxing, it will be difficult to handle after the year is over!

So in order to hurry, after Gao Huaiyuan arranged the things here, he ordered Xue Yan to send New Year's gifts to Liu Zhixian and others in the county government, and hurried on the road with Li Tong and others.

Originally, he didn't want Liu'er to suffer from the exhaustion of traveling with him, but Liu'er refused to say anything. He was worried that no one would take care of Gao Huaiyuan on the road, so he insisted on going back with Gao Huaiyuan, so Gao Huaiyuan decided to go back together. Taking her with him, Li Tong, Huang Yan and Zhou Hao could clearly see how they doted on her.

Going back this time is no better than the last time they came here. They had to go back to Shaoxing mansion years ago, so they lost the interest in sightseeing and did not stop along the way. Basically, they even settled for lunch in the car, only at night. Hiking Chijujuku, and after going through it once, the route is also familiar, so it is much faster than the last time I came.

Walking along the road, I still saw refugees in many places. For this situation, Gao Huaiyuan was helpless and could only let it go. His current power in this world is still too small and too small to change so much. man's fate.

Because of the refugee problem, the road was not peaceful, and they were harassed three or four times by thieves along the way, but now Gao Huaiyuan, Huang Yan, and Zhou Hao are no longer the children they were more than a year ago. Huang Yan and Zhou Hao are tall and strong, and their kung fu is also advancing by leaps and bounds. After many experiences, Huang Yan and Zhou Hao not only have a lot of kung fu, but also a lot of courage.

The few times when we encountered thieves cutting the path, Gao Huaiyuan almost never let Gao Huaiyuan do it. The two of them each held a big stick, and they beat those thieves crying for their parents and mothers. If it is serious, you will be beaten on the spot with broken tendons and bones, and you will not die, but don't even think about living this year!

With the three ruthless people like Gao Huaiyuan around, they were not afraid of any major accidents, so after just a few days, they rushed to the foot of Huangshan Mountain.

As in the past, they did not make any stops, quickly passed Huangshan Mountain, and continued to rush towards Shaoxing. In the afternoon, they passed the boundary of Huangshan Mountain, and the pedestrians on the road became scarce. It was hard to go, and the car slowed down.

Gao Huaiyuan lamented that if this happened in future generations, not to mention flying, trains and cars, he would arrive in Shaoxing in about a day, but now, if one day is fast, he can only travel one or two hundred miles, and he will not be able to catch up with Shaoxing. What is it, what a delay!

After walking so many roads, they now have more experience in traveling. Places like this are generally not peaceful, and they are places where bandits haunt, so after entering this road, Gao Huaiyuan and the others are careful Get up, put all the guys in hand by your side, and be ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

The sky paid off, and what I was afraid of would come anyway. Two mule carts were on their way, when suddenly twenty or thirty thieves in different clothes jumped out from the side of the road and blocked their way.

This time Huang Yan and Zhou Hao became a little nervous. After all, when they encountered thieves a few times before, there were at most seven or eight people, so it was easier for them to deal with them. But this time the number of opponents was too large. To solve them, I am afraid that the two of them alone will not work.

Seeing the situation, Li Tong immediately followed Gao Huaiyuan's instructions and jumped into the car. He doesn't know martial arts, and this kind of thing will only add to the chaos, so it's safer to hide. As for Liu Er, he pulled out the car. Sitting in the car with a dagger, although she was a little nervous, she had blind confidence in Gao Huaiyuan, and felt that as long as Gao Huaiyuan was around, she had nothing to be afraid of.

Gao Huaiyuan was a bit bored with things like this. Fighting bandits was fun for the first time, but after playing too much, it became meaningless. How did Da Song become this kind of virtue now? The last time he only met Xue Yan A group of thieves, but this time they have encountered so many times, could it be that they are too lucky.

As soon as the gang of thieves came out, they immediately yelled for Gao Huaiyuan and others to get out of the car and leave their belongings and leave quickly, threatening them to do otherwise.

Gao Huaiyuan saw that it was impossible for him to be good, so many thieves could not be beaten for two dollars, so he was not polite, just beat them.

So he took a long stick, and led Huang Yan and Zhou Hao to kill them, which frightened the gang of thieves, thinking that these three young men are really brave, three people dare to fight with so many people like him As soon as he made a move, he suddenly became murderous, screaming and pounced on him.

Gao Huaiyuan was also not polite, after swiping the stick, he had a kind of unworthy courage, and he overthrew several thieves in a short time, while Huang Yan and Zhou Hao had Gao Huaiyuan as the boss, and they were not soft on their hands, one after another. He knocked his opponent to the ground, and the thieves screamed, and they didn't dare to underestimate them anymore.

The thief in charge is also a ruthless guy. Seeing that the idea was tough, he became murderous, and secretly asked a few of his subordinates to take out their bows and arrows, and carried out a sneak attack on Gao Huaiyuan and the three of them.

At first, Gao Huaiyuan and the others didn't expect that the other party had bows and arrows in their hands. When they realized that the momentum was wrong, it was already a bit late. , and was almost shot by a cold arrow, so he broke out in a cold sweat!

He is also enraged at the moment, robbing is robbing, if you insist on killing someone, it is unforgivable, no matter why you robbed, this alone violates Gao Huaiyuan's taboo, coming to this world by yourself is not good Easy, how could he die in the hands of a bunch of thieves so easily!

The current Gao Huaiyuan also understands the same thing. To protect oneself in this world, sometimes it is not enough to be too soft-hearted. If you are not careful, you will be harmed by others, so when the opponent shoots them with bows and arrows, Gao Huaiyuan will not hold back anymore. Out of the three-edged flying knife at his waist, he swung his bow left and right. This time the thieves were unlucky, how could they have the ability to dodge Gao Huaiyuan's flying knife? After a while, those guys with bows and arrows , so they wailed and fell to the ground. Everyone was stabbed in the vitals, and even if they didn't die, they might be crippled.

At this moment, the thieves knew that the big thing was not good, and they hit a hard stubble, so they yelled, turned around and ran away one after another, so they can still control their brothers.

Gao Huaiyuan hated such a ruthless group of people even more, and he deserved to die when he came out to mess with his brother's life and death, so he picked up a pair of bows and arrows on the ground, and raised his hand to shoot an arrow, but the thief ran out Not far away, Gao Huaiyuan nailed an arrow to the back of the heart, and fell to the ground, seeing that he would not survive.

After dealing with this group of people, Gao Huaiyuan didn't dare to delay here, so he hurried on the road and continued on his way. He didn't even stop at night and crossed the Huangshan border all the way, so he was relieved. Once here, it is not too far from Lin'an. As the capital of a country, it is relatively safer on the ground.

Counting the days, there are still four or five days before the New Year's Eve. They basically didn't have much delay on the way, and finally they were able to rush back to Shaoxing Mansion before the year, so they were no longer in a hurry when they got here.

In this way, finally at noon on the 27th of the twelfth lunar month, a group of five people entered the city of Shaoxing, which had been away for more than a year. As soon as they entered the city, Huang Yan and Zhou Hao said goodbye and went home to have a look. Their expressions were also very anxious. Gao Huaiyuan naturally knew how they were feeling, and without delaying them, he took two packages full of various gifts from the car and gave them to them, asking them to take them home for their families to use.

The two of them were not polite to Gao Huaiyuan, and after taking it, they said goodbye and walked home. Gao Huaiyuan drove the car himself, and returned to Gaofu in the south of the city with Li Tong.

Standing in front of the gate of Gao's mansion, looking at the seemingly unchanged Gao's compound, Gao Huaiyuan's mood is very complicated. If it is said that this is his birthplace, but he can't feel any kindness at all, if it weren't for the If Gao Jian recruited him to come back, Gao Huaiyuan would never come back here for the rest of his life, and he didn't want to come back here, because in his memory here, there was no family affection at all, and there were cold eyes and discrimination everywhere. He feels uncomfortable thinking about it now.

But now that we have come here, it is impossible not to go in, and the gatekeeper of the Gao Mansion has already seen the three of them, his eyes full of astonishment.

"What are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and inform the master that our third young master is back!" Li Tong is no longer the doormat servant in Gao's mansion, but now he is Gao Huaiyuan's confidant, and he also knows, Gao Huaiyuan has all the skills now, he no longer has to worry that he will be pissed off like before in the Gao family.

But Li Tong felt good about himself, but the two guys at the gate still didn't treat him as a dish. After seeing clearly that it was Gao Huaiyuan and the others, they still felt the same contempt in their hearts as before. Gao Huaiyuan is tall and big, but in their minds, Gao Huaiyuan is still the foolish boy he used to be, but he has grown up a bit.

So one of them came out coldly, gave Gao Huaiyuan a salute indifferently, and said to them, "The master is still in the yamen and has not come back, so you can go in through the side door!"

Li Tong was not happy when he heard it. In his eyes, Gao Huaiyuan could be said to be as big as the sky now, but this fellow would not even let them go through the main entrance, and let Gao Huaiyuan drive in by himself through the side entrance. This is clearly negligence. Gao Huaiyuan, how could he be willing to do it!

So Li Tong immediately stepped forward and scolded this guy: "You are so rude, open your dog eyes and see, this is the third young master of our family back, but you still haven't hurried to take the car, please come in Rest, our third young master has been exhausted by boats and cars, and we have traveled for several days to come back here, is there anyone like you?"

As a result, that guy was scolded by Li Tong, but he quit. He sneered and said, "What are you, you are arguing with me here? Isn't it just that the third young master is back? What's the big deal? Don't put on a show for me." , let you go through the side door, you go through the side door, I am watching the door, I have no time to serve you! You still think you are something, dare to scold me, see if I don't slap your mouth!" This guy is really serious If he dared to make a move, he raised his hand and slapped Li Tong in the mouth.

Gao Huaiyuan naturally knew why this guy was so arrogant. Needless to say, he still regarded himself as the foolish boy with no roots and roots, and he was not in Shaoxing during this time. In their eyes, he was exiled to the old mansion in Daye, so It is basically impossible to make them respect themselves!

But this guy is really annoying, it depends on the owner to beat a dog, Li Tong is now following his cronies, if he doesn't stand out, then who will stand up for Li Tong!

So without waiting for that guy to make a move, Gao Huaiyuan moved his hand first. After swiping his big slap away, he only heard a bang, and then looked at the arrogant janitor, and immediately followed a spinning top and turned around in place. He made a circle, staggered and rushed out at a side, bumped his head against the wall next to him, rolled his eyes, fell limply to the ground, and passed out with foam at the mouth.

Gao Huaiyuan looked coldly at the other doorman and said: "I tell you, no matter what you say, I am your third young master, and I won't allow you to be arrogant in front of me. Hurry up and take the car and rush to the yard. If you dare to neglect me, he will be your fate!"

Gao Huaiyuan has always been soft and afraid of hard, this time Gao Huaiyuan came back, he showed a very strong performance, and immediately put this young man under control. He suddenly remembered that more than a year ago, before Gao Huaiyuan left the Gao family, that Li The fate of the boy's servant, and now Gao Huaiyuan has grown up to be as tall as an adult, I can't live with him, in fact, I can't live with myself, anyway, now people are in charge of so many people in Gao's old house, and I also provoke Sorry for him.

So this young man didn't dare to take care of the knocked out young man, he hurriedly took Gao Huaiyuan's car, carefully accompanied the smiling face, let Gao Huaiyuan into the gate, and ran to drive the cart into the yard by himself.

Li Tong is so proud of himself!It was cool to follow Gao Huaiyuan. At the beginning, he was unhappy because of this, but when he really thought about it, he felt that he should slap him. Now let's see who else in the Gao family dares to bully him. With Gao Huaiyuan around, the one lying outside the door will is the best example.

After entering the courtyard, Gao Huaiyuan took a look at the situation in the courtyard, basically there was no change around him, and some of the servants in the courtyard had just heard about what happened outside the door when they saw Gao Huaiyuan coming in, so they were too frightened to Then they were arrogant in front of Gao Huaiyuan, and they all came to greet Gao Huaiyuan with smiling faces.

Gao Huaiyuan didn't put on airs, people respected him a foot, he respected others, and nodded to these servants one by one. As a result, they immediately aroused the favor of these servants, and they all thought, in fact, this silly young master is still very good. !At least there is no domineering airs!The guy outside the door deserved it, he just asked for it to be beaten by his master, it really doesn't deserve sympathy.

Gao Huaiyuan was not there, so Gao Huaiyuan wanted to arrange the things he had brought back first, so after asking, he knew that the small courtyard he used to live in was still vacant, so he asked people to put the things that were not brought back for the Gao family into the house first. In my previous small courtyard, I asked Liu Er and Li Tong to clean up the small courtyard first, and I still lived in the small courtyard.

Li Tong and Liu Er immediately went to work, but Gao Huaiyuan had to go to meet Gao Jian's official wife, Mrs. Zhang, because of etiquette. Not wrong.

Mrs. Zhang looked at Gao Huaiyuan in surprise, feeling quite uncomfortable in her heart. Although she was Gao Jian's official wife, her fate was not good, and she gave birth to a son who was not up to expectations. After the scandal of Gao Jian's concubine's adultery, even she herself was implicated and lost her influence over Gao Jian. Now it's rare to see Gao Jian face to face for ten days and a half months.

And her son Gao Huailiang, after that incident, was beaten up by Gao Jian. Later, after Gao Huaiyuan left Shaoxing, Gao Jian felt that it was shameful to keep this guy in Gao's house, so he gave him to him in southern Fujian. He found a place, drove Gao Huailiang to the south, and looked upset. Compared with Gao Huaiyuan, Gao Huailiang's fate was miserable enough. He went on the road alone, ran to the south to hide, and never dared to return to Shaoxing. coming.

Mrs. Zhang looked at Gao Huaiyuan, whom she hadn't seen for more than a year, and saw that he was unusually tall and strong, with the demeanor of an adult in his gestures, how could he still have the silly feeling of before!Moreover, there was a strong self-confidence in his eyes, he didn't look like a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy at all, but more like a young man, so he was very surprised.

But Mrs. Zhang and Gao Huaiyuan didn't have anything to say. They just chatted lightly for a few words before letting Gao Huaiyuan go down to rest and wait for Gao Jian to come back. The sons who value him have the right to come back to reunite with his family, but his unfulfilled son is still suffering in Fujian. Looking at Gao Huaiyuan's back, Mrs. Zhang felt sad from the pain, and she shed tears inwardly.

Gao Huaiyuan didn't bother to greet Gao Jian's concubines one by one, so he simply went back to his small courtyard to rest and wait for Gao Jian to come back.

As soon as I walked outside the small courtyard, I heard someone scolding inside: "Do you need to take care of my young master's affairs? Get the hell out of here!..." As he spoke, he heard a slap, followed by Li Tong groaned in pain.
