Chapter 428: Entrusting Tokens
Xu Lao carefully looked at Song Xinshu in front of him, and said that he was frightened and frightened, but in fact, it was really light, such a woman was really not simple, and she could completely relax after handing over that kind of thing to her.
Now I only hope that she can look at the sake of this thing she has given, and do her best to save Su Yan's life in the future, and she can be regarded as her best friend worthy of a tragic death, and she has saved a bloodline for him.
"Xin Shu, it's not that I deliberately rely on the old and sell the old, so I make a fool of myself, it's really a very important thing, I want to make sure if you can afford this responsibility. If you're not careful, this thing will cause you to worry about your life, and I hope you won't show it easily until you have to. Xu Lao said solemnly.
Song Xinshu's doubts in her heart were even deeper, although she could guess that Su Yun's origin was extraordinary, and she was willing to save her life if she could, but even if she had the ability to go to heaven, she couldn't protect a person who was bent on death, and Xu Lao was really embarrassed by himself now.
"Elder Xu, I can only say that I will do my best to live up to your trust. You are now in good health, and you can still go to find its real destined person for the things in your hands, I am afraid that a weak woman who is powerless cannot bear your responsibility, and you don't need to say the rest. ”
"It's something you've never said before, and I don't know anything. Now that Su Tong has entered my wings, then I will do my best to save her life, and I value the friendship between us. Song Xinshu said indifferently.
She is really in urgent need of connections, but it doesn't mean that she is willing to do anything for the sake of connections, people have to have that diamond to get porcelain work, so as not to lose their lives in vain, not cost-effective!
Xu Lao didn't expect her to refuse her request, this is something that the Lin family has dreamed of, with this token, the position of the head of the Lin family's big house can be regarded as stable, otherwise it is from an improper background.
With such a thing, Song Xinshu didn't say that she wanted the wind to be rainy, at least she could be unimpeded in the capital, she even gave up before she could say it.
"Elder Xu, even if I invite you to tea today. I've been out for a long time, and it's time to go back. Leave it to yourself! After Song Xinshu finished speaking, he really got up and prepared to leave, without hesitation at all.
Xu Lao thought that she was just joking with herself, but when he saw that she was real, he immediately spoke: "Xin Shu, don't go, this thing is the most suitable only if it is handed over to you, and it will be of great benefit to you." I know that your painstaking plan now is just to help Su Qing and avenge his blood and revenge, do you really want to let go of such a good opportunity in vain? ”
His words made Song Xinshu successfully stop, she thought that Xu Lao and Su Qing did not know each other, but now it seems that this old man has already recognized Su Qing at the beginning, so her own caution can keep people.
She said, how could a person who had eaten delicacies from the mountains and seas be easily bought by a chicken named Hua Chicken, and how could he not be calculated by others when he was calculating others.
"Old Xu, I'll give you one last chance, if you have something to say, say it quickly. I'm the most impatient person, and I hate people for calculating me. Song Xinshu's expression was cold, and the words he said were even more cold and biting.
Xu Lao knew that she should have figured out everything before, so she said this, if she really calculated, she did have the meaning of calculating Song Xinshu, but if she looked at it from another angle, why didn't she calculate herself?
"Xin Shu, this matter is indeed not above board enough. But today I have asked you to come here to discuss sincerely. I also knew a thing or two about the Su family at the beginning, because of that catastrophe, many ministers in the DPRK and China were implicated. Among them, the worst should be Su Yan's father, in order to help the Su family redress their grievances, he was directly demoted by the current saint by three levels. ”
Song Xinshu didn't show it on the surface, but he was still quite surprised in his heart, saying that the Su family owed Su Tong a favor, and Xu Lao's request to let him save Su Tong's life was understandable.
Seeing that she didn't have any displeasure, Xu Lao Cai continued to speak: "Lord Lin was not discouraged after being demoted, and he was still loyal to the imperial court. However, because of the original incident, the emperor no longer trusts Lord Lin very much, which makes the Lin family's big house, who can sneak around and shoot horses, seize the opportunity to rise in the court, and this time he found an opportunity to wipe out Su Yun's father. ”
"But maybe it's really the endless road, Su Tong met you, this can only be said to be a kind of fate. Originally, the head of the Lin family was Su Yan's father, and he naturally accumulated a lot of contacts in his hands. ”
"After the Su family's incident, he already expected that there would be changes in the future, so he entrusted the token of the head of the family to me for safekeeping, and now I should have found a master who can be entrusted!"
Xu Lao said that he was still in tears, and Song Xinshu could also realize from it that he had not been easy in these years, just for the entrustment of his friends, he ran around, and maybe there was constant pursuit, and it was really difficult for an old man who was over fifty years old.
To say that Song Xinshu has no fluctuations in her heart is false, but she also knows very well in her heart what the token of the head of a century-old family represents, she really doesn't have the courage to take that kind of thing, for fear that she can't bear the responsibility.
"Elder Xu, since that thing is in your hands, let it continue to be kept with you. For the sake of the kindness of the second room of the Lin family to Su Qing, I will do my best to make Su Tong I worry-free. Song Xinshu said.
As a person who has experienced the turmoil at the beginning, Xu Lao knows how deep the water is there, and if she is not careful, there will be no bones left, and Song Xinshu's current ability alone is far from enough to fight those people, although her own thing will bring her trouble, but it can also give her more chances of winning.
"Xinshu, I've been observing you for a long time, so I decided to give this thing to you. This thing is just a dead thing in my place, and it can only be of real use if it is handed over to you, so you don't have to excuse yourself. Xu Lao said and took out a jade pendant with a whole body of turquoise, which was worth a lot of money at a glance.
He solemnly handed the thing into Song Xinshu's hands, "Girl, this thing is not easy to come by, you can take good care of it." It will be of great use to you! ”
Obviously, the jade pendant is cool all over, but Song Xinshu feels that the things in her hand are as hot as fire, she really doesn't know if she can live up to the trust of Xu Lao?
"Old Xu, I ......" This is the first time that Song Xinshu has been so hesitant, this thing carries the life of Su Tong's family, does he really have such ability?
"Don't hesitate, kid. Regardless of whether you can recapture the Lin family in the end, the old man will not blame you. In the future, without the drag of this thing, I can live a free life, old man. Xu Lao said with some sadness.
Song Xinshu heard the meaning of farewell in his tone, "Old Xu, is it possible that you are planning to leave here?" ”
Xu Lao didn't speak, and Song Xinshu already understood what he meant, Xu Lao should have suffered a lot in the past few years because of this thing in his hand.
"I've been here long enough, and those people haven't given up looking for me since I left. I am already very content to see Su Tong at a glance in my life. For your sake, I must leave as soon as possible! ”
"You don't have to be sad, there will be a time when you will disperse, and when your revenge is avenged, you will see me again!" Xu Lao said with a smile on his face.
How could Song Xinshu easily believe what he said, he had already put his life and death on the line, how could those people never think that he would give such a valuable thing to someone who had known him for a long time.
In this way, those people will only think that the thing is still on him, and they will naturally spare no effort to hunt him down, and they will have a chance to breathe.
"Elder Xu, you can't do this. You are already Su Tong's only relative, if you have three long and two short, how can Su Tong accept it? You've been incognito for so long, and those people may not be able to find this place. ”
No matter how Song Xinshu persuaded him, he couldn't change Xu Lao's plan to leave.
"Child, we will have a date later, and Su Yan will be handed over to you to take care of!"
At this moment, someone suddenly broke in, both of them were surprised, and the meeting here today was a temporary idea of the two of them, and no one should know.
Song Xinshu hurriedly stuffed the jade pendant in his hand into his sleeve, and when he looked back, he saw that the person turned out to be Suyun, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Su Tong, shouldn't you be in the shop at this time? Why did you come here all of a sudden? Song Xinshu said as he walked to Su Tong's side.
Su Tong had tears in his eyes, and walked in with heavy steps, "Uncle Xu, if I hadn't suddenly broken in, would you be ready to say goodbye to me like my father?" ”
Originally, Su Tong really didn't know that they were meeting here, but the fact that she was an old acquaintance with Xu Lao when Song Xinshu broke through last time had always worried her, and she wanted to go to Xu Lao today to discuss countermeasures, but who knew that no one was found.
I heard that he came out to see his old friend, so I was suspicious, and I hurried here, just in time to hear Xu Lao say that he was leaving.
"Su Tong, uncle didn't mean that. You heard me wrong, go back quickly! Xu Lao pretended to be calm and said.
"Uncle Xu, do you know that you don't dare to look into other people's eyes every time you lie, this little habit is still what my father told me!" Su Yun's tone was a little cold, which made Xu Lao a little scared.
She knows this child's temperament, and she is really afraid that she will do something irreparable in a fit of anger.
"Don't think so much, kid. I do have something to tell Xin Shu today, and I have already done everything she asked me to do. This Jinling City has been in this city for a while, and it's time to get ready to leave! ”
