Lu Quan also followed Lu Xiangge and took a few more glances at the mother and son.

Seeing the mother and son walking quickly towards the county government office, Shen Qinglian lowered her voice and said, "This lady should be named Tang. Her husband and your uncle are sworn brothers."

The only person who can stand with Mr. Shen at this time is probably the wife of the Tang family.

Lu Shege's heart skipped a beat: "Tang Qi?"

Lu Quan looked at Lu Sheige with some surprise: "You also know Tang Qi?"

Although he had never met Tang Qi, he had heard of him. He was a forthright and righteous person, and he was very close to Chen Shikui.

Both the Tang family and the Chen family were from Nanyang, and were considered wealthy in the local area. To put it bluntly, the Tang family had deeper family roots than the Chen family.

It's just that Tang Qi was born in a branch of the Tang family and grew up in the market. He and Chen Shiluo, who had the same family background, were brothers who grew up together.

Seeing Lu Quan ask, Lu Xiangge didn't think much and just shook his head honestly: "I just remember that there seems to be such a person, but I don't remember what he looks like."

After hearing what she said, Lu Quan thought about it and felt that there was nothing strange about it.

Tang Qi and Chen Shiluo were good friends, and the two families were neighbors. It was not surprising that Xiaosi had heard of or seen them.

"This Tang Qi ran away with your uncle, and there is no news yet. However, the Tang family and the Chen family have always lived apart from each other, and they have always been as close as brothers. Your aunt and this Tang Qi's wife were also friends when they were young.

Partner, our relationship has always been good."

When Lu Xiangge heard what Lu Quan said, he asked curiously, "Then since both of them ran away, why is my aunt in jail, but the Tang family's aunt is not in jail like my aunt?"

Lu Quan inquired about this matter in detail: "Your uncle is the chief of the pavilion, and your uncle let him go. He has nothing to do with Tang Qi. Some people say that Tang Qi ran away with your uncle, and some say that Tang Qi ran away with your uncle.

Some people say that Tang Qi and your uncle fell into trouble together. Others say that Tang Qi went to the capital to do business and was not with Chen Shikui. Anyway, no one has seen your uncle with Tang Qi.

Even if you left, your uncle just happened to run away, and Tang Qi didn't come back. This crime will naturally not fall on Tang Qi."

While the father and son were talking, Mrs. Tang had already led her son to chat with Shen Qinglian. In just a few words, Shen Qinglian got into the Tang family's car without hesitation.

What Tang Jinming arrived was an oxcart without a shed, which was padded with wooden boards and covered with straw mats. The two ladies got on the oxcart and sat cross-legged. Tang Jinming did not drive, but led the oxcart towards the city gate.

.

Seeing Shen Qinglian following the Tang family's mother and son, Lu Quan hesitated slightly.

You are here, do you want to take Xiao Si to meet this Aunt of the Shen family?

"father."

Lu Sheige stood up and gently tugged at Lu Quan's lapel, "If we don't sell these fish, they will all die."

Half a bucket of wild fish had been left out for more than an hour, and some of them had turned white in their bellies, and some of them looked not very energetic.

If you don't sell it, it will become a dead fish and you really won't be able to sell it for a few copper coins.

Lu Quan didn't come here today to sell fish. He led Lu Shengge to watch Shen Qinglian come out of prison, which was considered to have accomplished something on his mind.

"No more selling, let's go back, your mother..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Lu Xiangge running towards the bullock cart with a wooden bucket in his arms.

"Madam, are you buying fish? This is fish just fished out of Honghu Lake this morning. It's still alive."

Lu Sheige reached out and fished out a lively fish from the bucket and raised it above his head. "Look, most of them are alive. You can go back to make soup or cook them with soybean paste."

Before Lu Sheige came to Nanyang, Qiu had already carefully smeared another layer of pot ash on his face.

Yuxue was originally a cute little girl, wearing coarse clothes and combing her hair, but because of her dark face, she looked more and more like a silly boy that can be seen everywhere in the countryside.

Mrs. Tang frowned slightly: "No."

This kid and his father have been squatting here for half a day without selling a single fish. Now he dares to come out and hawk. I don’t know who gave him the courage.

Tang Jinming, who was holding the cow, immediately turned around and reached out to pull Lu Xiangge's collar: "Kid, stay away, be careful not to bump into you."

Maybe the force of the tug was too strong, and the bucket held in front of Lu Sheige shook. The half-full water in the bucket poured out a little, and the two small fish also fell to the ground.

"oops……"

Seeing that he had gotten into trouble, Tang Jinming scratched his head in embarrassment. His handsome face couldn't help but blush, and he crouched down and stretched out his hand to pick up the small fish.

Unexpectedly, the child who had just called his wife to buy fish quickly squatted down, picked up the two small fish that had fallen and threw them into the barrel.

"What's wrong with you fish..."

Before Tang Jinming could say anything, Lu Xiangge had already run happily to Lu Quan, who was standing aside with a wooden bucket in his arms: "Dad, they don't want it, let's find another one."

"Hey, you kid, let me ask you how to sell fish?"

Tang Jinming is not very old either, only sixteen or seventeen years old, but calling a child as old as Lu Xiangge "child" doesn't mean anything.

Lu Sheige turned around and waved his hand at Tang Jinming: "I won't sell it."

"Not for sale?"

Tang Jinming was a little strange. Even Shen Qinglian, who had originally indifferent eyes, withdrew his gaze from the void and looked at the children running towards the shade of the tree.

The half-old clothes looked like they were made from adult clothes, with several fine patches on them. The pair of cloth shoes on his feet were a bit too big, and I was afraid they were left behind by my sister who couldn't fit them in. When she ran, they would squelch on the ground.

It puffed out a light dust.

Children like this can be seen everywhere in the countryside.

But looking at the retreating figure, Shen Qinglian suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. Unfortunately, the child was running with his back to her, and the man facing her had a simple and honest smile, which did not look like he knew him.

"Brother Ming..."

Shen Qinglian subconsciously touched her sleeve pocket and wanted to say go and buy his fish for me. After touching her hand for a while, she remembered where she had the money to buy fish when she came out of prison just now.

How ridiculous!

I live a miserable life myself, but I cannot bear to see the suffering of others.

A woman like her should have been deceived by Chen Shikui and reduced from a noble lady to a prisoner.

"What's the matter, aunt?"

When Tang Jinming turned around, Shen Qinglian lowered her head slightly, raised her hands and carefully smoothed the wrinkles on both sleeves: "It's okay, go back."

Go back, the Chen family owes her the Shen family, and she wants to get it back one by one.

Seeing that her son was not moving, Mrs. Tang raised her hand and poked his forehead: "Let's go, why are you so dazed?"

"oh oh……"

Seeing the father and son carrying the barrels towards the alley next to them, Tang Jinming looked away, scratched his head and explained to the two women in the car: "I originally wanted to buy his fish."

It looked like the fish had been caught a long time ago and they would all die if they were not sold.

There is still a big difference in price between dead fish and fresh fish.

"What kind of fish should I buy? How many wild fish are we still short of at home?"

Mrs. Tang glared at her son angrily, shouldn't he go back earlier now?

With Shen Qinglian's temperament, these more than three months in county jail were probably a nightmare that she would never want to mention in her life.

Why don't you go back earlier and let her freshen up and unload, and buy some fish?
