New Wagang

Chapter 45 Fan Wuming

Under the night, a hut was not lit, but the windows were opened to let in a little moonlight, illuminating a man lying on the couch. It's very preoccupied.

"Ah." The man sighed again for no reason. At this moment, the curtain was raised, and a woman came in with a bowl of medicine. She also showed displeasure when she heard the man's sigh, but she didn't say anything, and just took the medicine bowl away. Taking it over, there was a hint of blame in the voice, and said:
"What do you think about those things? You have tried your best, and even almost died of illness. You are already worthy of that brother Qin Shubao, why bother to torture yourself like this."

"What does your wife know?" The man complained to the woman, took the medicine bowl and drank it and was about to stand up. The woman grabbed it and said:
"You are not warm in bed yet, what are you going to do?"

"No matter what, I have to go to my brother's house to see, kowtow to my old lady to apologize."

"Apologize to her?" The woman became angry when she heard this:
"Then Qin Shubao is on a business trip with you. You have been back for several days and he hasn't returned. You wanted to find him again, but you caught cold and fell ill on the way. If it weren't for that Dongyue Temple Zhuxiang rescued you, you might not have been able to return. Here you go, you have to go to the county government office to report to your order tomorrow, if you don’t rest tonight, how will you be energetic tomorrow, just listen to me, rest for a night, go to the county government office tomorrow, how about going to the county government office?”

The woman may be thinking about the hardships her husband has suffered in the absence of her husband these days, and she couldn't help but shed a few tears as she spoke.

"Oh, what are you crying for?" The man stuffed the medicine bowl back into the woman's hand and thought about it, but he still wanted to get down to the ground. He lifted the quilt with great effort and just fell to the ground, his legs suddenly went limp, and he staggered and fell on the ground. On the ground, the woman let out a cry of alarm and hurriedly helped the man up, but at this moment she heard a knock on the door, followed by a voice:
"Fan Butou, my elder brother came here to find you to tell Qin Qiong about the situation."

Hearing the word Qin Qiong, the man in the house suddenly lifted his spirits, and suddenly his brows were furrowed again. He had been working in Licheng for these years, not to mention that everyone was familiar with him, at least he was familiar with him, and he knew him and the Qin family even more clearly. But there was no such voice, and he couldn't help but said in doubt:

"May I ask who the hero is?"

"Brother Qin misremembered the place when we met you, so he spent too much time in Wang Xiaoer's shop in Luzhou City, and finally had to sell the yellow puma because all the money was at Brother Fan's place. I am that The person who bought the horse was later entrusted by Brother Qin to come to Licheng, Shandong Province to look for you, just to tell my mother about Brother Qin's news, so as to comfort my heart."

"Sure enough!" Fan Hu had no doubts in his heart when he heard Yu Wenba's detailed explanation, but his legs were weak and he couldn't move, so he could only push his wife and said:

"Go and invite the good guys outside."

The woman was also happy when she saw that someone had delivered Qin Shubao's letter, she turned around and walked out quickly to open the door, Yuwenba and Shanwazi offered some greeting gifts, but the woman accepted it after a bit of refusal, at this time, Fan Hu's words came from the back room:
"If you don't mind being a hero, please go to the inner room and tell me."

After hearing her master's words, the woman immediately turned around and took the two of them into the inner room. Fan Huqiang propped himself up and leaned on the head of the couch, slightly cupped his hands at the two of them and said:
"I am sick, please forgive me for any inconvenience."

"Where, it's presumptuous of us to visit late at night." Yu Wenba hastily cupped his hands and returned the salute. Seeing that Fan Huhu had a hunchbacked back and an extremely burly body. There was also a heroic look on his sickly face, as expected, a heroic man said immediately:
"I don't know what disease you are suffering from, Big Brother Fan?"

In fact, Yu Wenba knew what happened to Fan Hu, but because Shan Xiongxin and Qin Shubao didn't have the opportunity to buy a horse, Qin Shubao would not go to Erxianzhuang to be grateful when he came back from Youzhou Deluoyi and voted for Tangbi, so If Fan Hu went to Luzhou to look for Qin Shubao, he would not run into Shan Xiongxin, so Yu Wenba speculated that Fan Hu might not know Qin Qiong's whereabouts at this time. The disease contracted when looking for Qin Shubao.

Sure enough, Fan Hu recounted the fact that he was entrusted by Qin Shubao's wife to go to Luzhou to find Qin Qiong again, which was pretty much the same as Yu Wenba's guess.

Yu Wenba also briefly talked about the process of getting acquainted with Qin Qiong, and he didn't deliberately hide the fact that Er Xianzhuang bought a horse. After all, Shan Xiong believed that Qin Qiong and others would go to Wagang in the future, and he couldn't hide it for a while. At that time, when Shan Xiongxin asked, he said that he didn't know it at the time. He met the real thieves in Zaojiao Lin and found out that the man who sold the horse was Qin Shubao. I believe Shan Xiongxin would not embarrass himself.

And when he is already the boss, what can Shan Xiongxin do?

Hey.

But Yuwenba didn't say anything about Qin Qiong's possibility of going to Luoyang to give Tang Bi the king bar, because that was a later thing, how could he know?So Fan Hu now knows that the final location of Qin Qiong is the Luoyi office in Youzhou.

Yu Wenba also concealed his name and identity and did not tell Fan Hu, saying that it was not convenient for people in the mountains to tell, and Fan Hu was a member of the Gongmen, so he understood it as soon as he heard it, so he didn't ask again.

"I think Luo Yi in Youzhou was born as a military commander, and he especially likes people with real skills. He often selects talents from among the military prisoners to use in his account. Brother Qin has cleared away the suspicion of thieves, but he accidentally killed him. People, so I think Brother Qin should be able to get Luo Yi's love and reuse." Seeing that Fan Hu was going to take him to see Qin Qiong's mother overnight, Yu Wenba comforted him and said:

"It's been so many days, don't be in a hurry. Brother Fan, you are already suffering from illness. There is no need to go all night, so you will rest for a night. Tomorrow we will go find Brother Qin's mother together."

"That's right, what this brother said is true." The woman also chimed in, and Fan Hu had no choice but to nod his head, and then asked the woman to bring some simple food and wine, insisting on drinking with Yu Wenba. At the scene, Yu Wenba knew that Fan Hufan had a lifeless nature, and he would not even give up his life for his brother, let alone drinking with him at this time.

Although the woman was also worried about her man's cold and drinking for fear of affecting his body, she knew that her man's temperament did not dare to disobey, so she went to boil a pot of wine, but she only took two wine glasses. He scolded Yu Wenba but he laughed and said:
"Sister-in-law really takes good care of Brother Fan, haha."

Fan Hu could only give a wry smile when he heard that, and stared straight at the woman, but the woman took out a pot of tea from behind and poured it for her man as if by magic, and she still smiled gratefully at Yu Wenba when she finished.

After a simple meal and drink, they talked about some common things. Yuwenba and Shanwazi were already tired from the journey. At this time, Fan Hu saw the two yawned one after another, so he asked the woman to take them to the guest room to rest.

Early the next morning, just after dawn, Yuwenba heard a knock on the door, and then Fan Hu's voice came out:

"Two brothers, get up and have some breakfast, and then go to Brother Qin's house."

Yuwenba opened the door, and Fan Hu was already dressed as a gentleman, although his complexion was a bit unbearable, but his spirit was exceptionally good. Seeing Yuwenba leaving the house, Fan Hu clasped his fists and bowed deeply to Yuwenba.

"Brother Fan, what are you doing?" Yuwenba hurriedly supported Fan Hu, but Fan Hu didn't speak, but patted Yuwenba's shoulder heavily, with an expression that said nothing.

Before it was too early, the three of them rode on horseback and led the way to Qin Qiong's house. When they arrived at the courtyard, they saw the mother of the Qin family open the door, and they also saw Fan Hu. They hurried over. Fan Hu and Yu Wenba three People got off the horse in a hurry, and Fan Hu immediately knelt down on the ground, told his experience of going to Luzhou before getting up, and then introduced Yuwenba to Mrs. Qin.

Yuwenba also only repeated what he said to Fan Hu last night, and no one would reveal his last name, and Mrs. Qin, who came from a family of officials, knew how to read words and expressions, so she didn't force her, and Yuwenba was relieved again. Mrs. Qin said a few words, Mrs. Qin didn't know whether it was joy or worry for a while, she just kept thanking Yuwen Ba, seeing Fan Hu almost died outside because of her uncle, she was also persistently grateful, the two persuaded for a while before finally Living.

When he left the Qin family, Yuwenba left another 100 taels of silver, and he said that it was the dirty money that Brother Qin returned from the yamen after washing his grievances. He was entrusted by Brother Qin to bring it back to Mrs. Qin, so Mrs. Qin accepted , only Fan Hu who was on the side had a mirror in his heart, secretly looking at Yu Wenba and nodded.

Coming out of the Qin family, Yuwenba bid farewell to Fan Hu. Fan Hu originally wanted to keep Yuwenba for a while, but seeing that Yuwenba seemed to be really busy, he couldn't open his mouth, so he had to say:
"If the two brothers come to Licheng again in the future, they will definitely come to see Brother Yu, and then we will have a good drink!"

"Naturally come back and trouble Brother Fan at that time." Yu Wenba also bid farewell to Fan Hu, and the two felt a sense of sympathy for each other.
