Chapter 21: Walking in the Square (9)(2/2)
"Xiaoyu, right?"
Zhang Xing watched this woman wandering around almost every table, but never came to his table. While his heart was slightly moved, when the other person passed by him, he directly reached out and grabbed the other person's wrist, and then teased her in return. "Xiao Zhao is gone now. Aren't you afraid that your sister-in-law will point you out to some pig-killer or brick-burner one day, and you will spend the rest of your life just hanging out in those pickled cities in the southeast?"
In the structure of Shendu City, Ziwei Palace is located in the northwest, and there are certain towns in the southeast, which are destined to be so-called "slums".
Xiaoyu forced a smile, but at the same time tried hard to break free: "Colonel Zhang hurt me."
Zhang Xing still held on to the other party, and then teased him with a tone that seemed greasy to him: "I hurt you accidentally, but it's also because of my strength... Do you know? That time with the Qingyu Gang, I was the best in martial arts. Okay, a crossbow shot through a master who has almost reached the level of eight extraordinary meridians... From this point of view, I can be regarded as avenging Xiao Zhao on your behalf."
When talking about it, Xiaoyu was still smiling, but later on, she was startled for a moment and almost shed tears, but she quickly held back, and then she just remained silent and tried her best to pull away her hands. As other captains came,
Look, especially when Lao Wang stood up directly, Zhang Xing burst into laughter and then let go.
But the matter was not over yet. Zhang Xing started laughing and then followed the escaped Xiaoyu to the counter, shouting loudly: "Sister-in-law! Everyone over there at Qingyu Gang made a big profit, so we agreed as promised
I don’t need the remaining payment of 20 yuan, I still have some money now... Can you exchange it for Xiaoyu’s deed of sale for me at Xiao Zhao’s price?”
Mrs. Feng, who had noticed the situation when Zhang Xing and Xiaoyu were fighting each other, stood up from behind the counter and her eyes flashed on the spot: "That can't be done, Xiao Zhao is Xiao Zhao, you are you... After all, Xiao Zhang, where can I go?"
Is there anyone who says this before Zhao Touqi has passed?"
"I only dared to say this after seeing that Xiaoyu didn't even pass Xiao Zhao's first seven years and came to serve in a wine shop." Zhang Xing retorted unceremoniously. "I thought my sister-in-law didn't have such specialties here!"
The warriors and lieutenants sitting outside had different expressions. Only then did they realize that the boy named Zhang was not frivolous, but was actually mocking the flag owner's wife. Among them, quite a few people stood up and were ready to scold this person, but it seemed that
They were afraid of the bravery Zhang Xing had shown these days, so as Zhang Xing raised his knife and turned around to sweep away, they all felt a little hesitant.
On this side, when Mrs. Feng saw this scene, she was also embarrassed for a moment. Her pair of strange-colored eyes couldn't help but turn to the counter in front of her, avoiding Zhang Xing's gaze: "I don't want Xiaoyu to come so early, but she and Xiao Zhao have nothing to say.
Leaving her behind was afraid that she would be alone with her thoughts, so today she begged me to come in front to get some air, so I agreed..."
"I also guessed that." Zhang Xing nodded, lying on the counter and getting serious. "So, even though I was teasing just now, I actually meant it a bit sincerely... Sister-in-law, give me Xiaoyu for real!"
"
"How do you say that?" Mrs. Feng was slightly startled.
"Xiao Zhao's death will ultimately be blamed on Sun Wagua. Logically speaking, it has nothing to do with me. But after all, there was a reason for the death that day. The person who went to Shangshanfang was in front of me. I feel somewhat guilty."
Zhang Xing tilted his head and lay on the counter, his eyes only looking at Xiaoyu who was hiding behind Mrs. Feng, who looked a little surprised, and his tone was calm.
"Now that he is dead, his revenge has been avenged, and what happened after his death is very glorious, all I can do is to care about his family a little bit... But his brother and sister-in-law are fake and have always been at odds with him.
I went to his house for a few days, but I just felt it was boring. After much deliberation, Xiaoyu was the only one he really cared about... But now, despite Xiaoyu's appearance, youthful and agile, it has been a few years.
, whether it’s because the flag master has risen, there are more people around you, sister-in-law, or she herself is old and beautiful, isn’t it just the result of marrying to Nanbianfang City as a concubine? Why not marry me, I can still miss Xiao Zhao.
For once, treat her sincerely."
What Zhang Xing said seemed very reasonable. Not only did everyone behind him sit back early, but even Mrs. Feng didn't know how to refute it.
After waiting for a long time, the general's wife smiled and said: "What Xiao Zhang said makes sense, but this matter is not something I can decide. Your eldest brother and Lao Wang went to the opposite side of Luoshui to deal with the leader and tail of the Qingyu Gang...
Why don't you come and talk to your elder brother in person tomorrow?"
Zhang Xing kept nodding his head.
In this way, in the afternoon, he did not go to Xiao Zhao's place again, but returned to his old habits and returned to the rented courtyard early. He still practiced martial arts to strengthen his body, and then meditated on the Chongmai.
This day seems to be about to pass.
However, in the evening, when Liu Fangzhu came back from cleaning the street, he started to call out reminders outside the square gate. When he was about to close the square gate, Zhang Xing, who changed into a homely dress and wrapped his sword in cloth, went straight out of the side courtyard, but he didn't
Instead of walking through the square gate, he took up the Changsheng Qi that he had just become familiar with from the place where he usually climbed over the wall, climbed up the wall calmly, and was prepared to turn over and leave without disturbing anyone.
But the accident still happened.
Zhang Xing jumped up to the wall, and when he turned around, he found that Brother Liu's little daughter was holding a pickle jar and standing on the threshold of his inner courtyard, looking at him in shock. Seeing this, Zhang Xing was completely helpless and could only laugh dryly on the wall.
, and then made a gesture of silence. When the other party nodded blankly, he jumped down directly and left the Xiuye Workshop while the door was closed and noisy.
Let’s say that all the square and square squares are like small towns, and most of them are similar in size. At least the four square squares for cultivating business, cultivating literature, and advocating good deeds, and Jingshan Four Squares are exactly the same size.
In other words, the north gate of Xiuye Square, where Zhang Xing lives, is actually facing the south gate of Jingshan Square.
Therefore, Zhang Xing took advantage of the hustle and bustle in front of the square gate and the rush of people rushing to enter the square. He jumped down from the wall on one side. Although he alarmed a few men and women who were close by, he didn't care at all and just ran towards the opposite side.
, a moment later, he squeezed into the crowd in front of Jingshanfang opposite and disappeared.
As the sun set, Zhang Xing, holding his sword in his arms, had already entered Jingshanfang, and then followed the flow of people into Fangshi in the dusk.
