Chapter 1400: Extra 范子 衿 (17)
The two strong men left with the silver ingots contentedly, and the old woman kowtowed three heads to Fan Zijin and Qi Haoran gratefully, and wiped away her tears: "The great kindness of the two young masters, it is hard for us to be a cow or a horse. what."
She turned around and grabbed her daughter-in-law and granddaughter, and said, "Quickly kowtow to the two benefactors."
Qi Haoran hurriedly helped the person up, rubbed his head honestly and said, "It's nothing, it's only a matter of twenty taels, hehe..."
In the money they spend to help others, this is the least.
Fan Zijin didn't take the money to heart, he waved: "Old man, go back, we're just doing our best."
When the old woman saw them sitting in the shade under the tree to enjoy the shade, she immediately said: "Two benefactors, the sun is too bright, and my house is not far from there. You pick a watermelon to eat."
The old woman said with a smile: "It's not too late to set off until it's not too hot."
Qi Haoran and Fan Zijin hesitated for a while, it seems really good to have watermelon on a hot day.
The two teenagers immediately packed up and saluted and walked with them on a horse.
The old woman's house was in a wood behind the turn of the road. If the old woman hadn't been leading them, they wouldn't have found a house here.
The old woman smiled and said, "My husband is a hunter. We are the only family in the five-mile radius. Usually few people come here. The family is a bit rough, so don't mind the benefactors."
It is indeed very simple. There is not even a decent stool in the house. There is a worn and worn quilt on the kang against the wall, but the house is very clean. Maza sat on it.
The old woman immediately asked her daughter-in-law to pick watermelons and cut watermelons. She smiled and said, "Our family has been hunting for a living, and it was only after my son got sick that we started to plant some melons and fruits. This year's watermelons have not been picked yet. I'll try it later if it's delicious."
The old woman went to the kitchen to get some food, and Yu Niang quickly brought in the cut watermelon.
Fan Zijin first picked up a piece and gave it to the little girl who was standing beside her mouth.
Yuniang took it with a smile and put it into the basin, and said with a smile: "My benefactors, let's eat it. If this child wants to eat it, I will pick it for her."
Fan Zijin raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "This watermelon is big enough, auntie and little sister should try it too, otherwise my cousin and I won't be able to finish it."
Yu Niang's face froze, she laughed dryly, took a piece of watermelon and stuffed it into her daughter's hand, pushed her and said, "Why don't you thank your benefactor?"
The little girl timidly thanked her and stood aside holding the watermelon, not daring to eat it.
Niang Yu said: "Two benefactors, you eat, the slaves go to the kitchen to see."
Fan Zijin nodded, looked at the little girl after seeing her gone, and asked with a smile, "Why don't you eat? Don't you like it?"
The little girl lowered her head and nibbled carefully, Fan Zijin watched it for a while, and then she started eating with confidence.
Qi Haoran looked at him, and then at the little girl, also burying himself in hard work.
The weather is scorching hot, it is too hot.
Everyone ate two or three slices, knowing that watermelon should not be eaten too much, so they stopped one after another, and the old woman and Yu Niang quickly brought in two bowls of porridge and two plates of sauerkraut, and said apologetically, "I don't have anything to do at home. , the two benefactors reluctantly use it."
Just as Fan Zijin was about to resign, Yu Niang had already taken her daughter out. Only the old woman and them were left in the house. The old woman looked at them with guilt, Fan Zijin blushed, he was still not very good at rejecting people, so He nodded and said, "I'm bothering the old man."
He took out a piece of silver from his arms and put it in her hand, saying: "Your family is in a difficult situation, you can use this silver to do some small business."
The old woman looked at the silver in her hand, opened her mouth, wiped her eyes, and said, "Thank you for the great kindness of the two benefactors."
She was so blessed to the two of them that she wiped away her tears and retired.
Qi Haoran felt inexplicable, "Why did she leave us behind."
Fan Zijin sighed: "I am so moved that I don't know how to say it, but staying here is nothing but embarrassment." He tapped Qi Haoran's bowl with his chopsticks and said, "Hurry up and eat, we will ask them for two watermelons after eating and leave. ."
Qi Haoran nodded when he heard the words. He really felt a little hungry. He had no appetite for eating dry food on a hot day. Now he has porridge with sauerkraut.
The bowl was not big, Qi Haoran took a few bites and ate it, and then he ate the sauerkraut with chopsticks.
Fan Zijin was holding the bowl and tasting it slowly, so when he was a little dizzy in front of him, he was in a trance for a moment, and when his hand was unstable, the bowl fell from his hand and hit the table.
He grabbed Qi Haoran, shook his head and said, "Haoran, I seem to be suffering from heat stroke..."
After a while, he felt the dizziness worsen. Looking at the overlapping dishes on the table, Fan Zijin's heart moved, and his face changed greatly: "No, it's not heatstroke, yes, it's something on the table!"
Qi Haoran stood up abruptly in shock, but when his eyes darkened, he immediately fell on the table, Fan Zijin felt a shudder in his heart, and fell to the ground uncontrollably.
The people outside heard the movement inside and rushed in immediately.
Niang Yu kicked the two who had passed out, turned to the old woman and said, "Go get the rope."
"No need, I'll tie it myself." The two sturdy men walked in and saw Qi Haoran lying on the table. With a grin, they stepped forward and gave him a kick to see him being kicked down softly. On the ground, he felt the anger in his heart subside a little.
"Okay, hurry up and search out the things. The big boss is still waiting for us to go back. The identities of these two people should not be simple, so don't reveal their deeds."
"Don't worry, when the time comes, the people will be cut into pieces and buried separately, let alone those people who can't find their bodies, they won't recognize them even if they find them."
These two teenagers went all the way from Jiangnan to the north. They helped many victims on the way. There was a lot of noise, and they could see that they were hiding.
Others may not know who they are hiding, but their base camp is in Xingzhou Prefecture. Two days ago, someone came to the door and spent thousands of liang to buy the heads of these two people. They found a lot of places. Knowing that these two were so far behind those who were chasing them.
Qianliang made them so tempted to send so many people, and these two teenagers still carried so much money.
Seeing their generous help to the victims, they must have a lot of money.
The person who bought them even wanted to deceive them, saying that they wanted everything on them. Is this making them fools?
The strong man stepped forward and searched the two of them. He took out an oiled paper bag from Qi Haoran's arms and opened it. The eyes of the people in the room were straight, they counted with shaking hands, and swallowed: " It's a thousand taels..."
