Volume 1 Chapter 7 Distance
In the next few days, Su Tang cultivated internal breath when his spirit was good, and when he was tired, he would tease and tease Xiao Ke'er, or take a walk inside and outside the fort, and the small life was very leisurely.
It's just that the eyes of the people in the castle looking at Su Tang have changed more or less, because the events of that day have already spread. Zhu Er ordered the two people who stole the secret deer breast to be tied to the stake, and asked people to find pig-killing knives, preparing to disembowel, and scared the two guys on the spot.
Xiaolinbao is located in a remote area, and in comparison, people's living environment is relatively quiet and peaceful, because stealing food will disembowel, so fierce...... Is this still the kind-hearted young master from before?
Some people are worried, some people are timid, and naturally some people are happy, especially the family members who look at Zhu Er's horse, they have a lot of emotion behind their backs, saying that the young master has finally grown up and has a little bit of the style of the old man.
There are a total of eleven members of Xiaolinbao, the leader is called Shang Bin, who followed Su Tang's father Su Xiang to the battlefield, and after being blind in one eye, he was left in Xiaolinbao by Su Xiang to retire, Shang Bin is powerful, generous, and has a lot of prestige in the fort, it is precisely because of him and the support of the housekeeper that Zhu Er has mastered the power, otherwise, who would be willing to listen to a weak woman?
Shang Bin was willing to obey Zhu Er's orders, on the one hand, because Su Tang was a little uncompetitive and unprofessional, and on the other hand, because Mrs. decided before her death that Zhu Er and Ke Er would become the young master's roommates, and sooner or later they would be in charge of the house and listen to Zhu Er's rules.
Interestingly, Su Tang hated Shang Bin very much in the past, because Shang Bin often persuaded Su Tang to work hard to cultivate martial arts, and Su Tang hated dancing knives and guns, and he could barely perfunctory at first, but after being persuaded to get bored, he simply blasted Shang Bin out of the city, and did not allow Shang Bin to step into the inner castle for another half step.
Looking at the past from a new perspective, Su Tang found that he had done too many foolish things before, Shang Bin was one of them, how could he like the good-for-nothing Qian Biao and reject the hard-working Shang Bin?!
I heard from Ke'er that after Shang Bin was kicked out of the inner fort, he drowned his sorrows with wine every day, but fortunately, Zhu Er knew what was going on, and the money given to Shang Bin did not decrease but increased, otherwise, due to the pressure of life, Shang Bin might have left Xiaolinbao earlier.
Su Tang knew very well that if Shang Bin had been walking in the inner castle, the order would never become so chaotic, so he should find a way to repair the relationship with Shang Bin.
On this day, Su Tang took Ke'er to the martial arts field in the inner castle, he had his own plan, if he went directly to Shang Bin, it was a little abrupt, and it was easy to make people suspicious, first with the rest of the family to set up a set, and then accidentally mentioned Shang Bin, someone must have been aggrieved for Shang Bin, and then he was very touched, and took the family to find Shang Bin, so it was reasonable.
The family members are resting, one of them is telling a story that I don't know where I heard the Tao from, Su Tang wanted to have fun, so he picked a random paragraph and told a legend related to a certain peach, of course, the content has changed a lot, and the effect was okay at the beginning, but when he talked about the protagonist subduing a few girls in the peach orchard and jumping to the tree to eat, the family members laughed together.
"What's wrong?" Su Tang felt inexplicable.
"The young master can really laugh, how can there be such a fool?" An old man of about fifty replied with a smile: "Restrain a few female babies, and then go eat some peaches...... Haha......"
"If it's me, I'll definitely pick two girls to carry home, hehe......" said another family member with a wink.
"yes, yes. The others nodded, clearly speaking their minds.
"Don't make a fool of yourself, the young master hasn't finished talking yet!" Ke'er shouted dissatisfiedly.
Su Tang was so troubled that he had no interest at all, and he suddenly discovered that the farthest distance in the world was not face-to-face, love or not at all, but this ideological gap.
"You know a fart!" The family who told the story just now looked at his companion with a sneering gaze: "The young master just said that he is a strong man at the grandmaster level, do you think that people will be like you, and they can't move their legs when they see a woman?"
Su Tang was silent, he grew up here since he was a child, he had hardly been outside, and he had been to the county seat as far as possible, full of dirt buns, and he didn't know much about this world, and the word 'grandmaster' suddenly evoked Su Tang's memory.
A long time ago, when his father Su Xiang mentioned the Grandmaster, his face was always full of awe, it was a high group, they could influence the direction of the world realm, decide the life and death of countless people, and the stormy waves that stirred the entire continent were always set off by them, and the last was also ended under their will.
Su Tang suddenly had suspicions, he wanted to live and work in peace and contentment in Xiaolinbao, eat and drink well for a lifetime, and stay away from disputes, but, is it possible?
Father Su Xiang died on the battlefield, rights and obligations always coexist, as the owner of the castle, while enjoying the support of many farmers, he also has to perform an obligation, that is, military service.
Once the principality has a war with foreign countries, Su Tang must go to the front, if he refuses, or fails to arrive for other reasons, Su Tang's castle lord will be deprived of the principality, and he has no other brothers, Xiaolinbao can only belong to others.
If you want to achieve your ideals, unless there is no more war outside!
Really outside, a castle lord is a fart?!
For a moment, a wry smile appeared on the corner of Su Tang's mouth, he used to live very quietly, because he was less than eighteen years old, and he had not reached the minimum number of years of military service, and the rules of the principality were also flexible and would not be too harsh, but how long could this quiet last?
"I haven't seen Shang Blind for many days, did he go to business with Steward Chang?" asked Su Tang.
The family members looked at each other, and the family who was telling the story just now replied tentatively: "Young master, you drove him out of the city, and you didn't allow him to step into the inner castle again, you still said...... If you see him again, you will really make him a blind man......"
"I just said a few angry words, is the blind man still serious?" Su Tang said cheekily: "Then he...... How's it going?"
Hearing the meaning of reconciliation in Su Tang's words, the family members became excited, and the old man replied: "Young master, you still don't know what to do? ”
"Yes, yes, Shang Tou's old spirit is gone, and it's sad to look at. The rest of the family chimed in.
"It's my fault, it's all my fault. Su Tang slowly stood up and looked at the old man: "You lead the way, accompany me to see the blind man." ”
"Okay. The old man seemed very happy, Su Tang already had an attitude of admitting his mistakes, which meant that Shang Tou was coming back.
With Ke'er and the old man just walked out of the gate of the inner fort, they met a group of people, the leader was about the same age as Su Tang, but he was much more particular about dressing, and the people behind him were all family members, hugging each other in front of him, giving people a feeling of stars and moons.
"Brother Su, what a coincidence. The young man at the head laughed.
"Liu Mingsheng?" Su Tang frowned: "What are you doing here?"
"What are you doing?" the young man shook his head and said, "Didn't you ask knowingly, brother, did you forget to owe me a tax on my sister." Locusts are swaying, and they are struggling to be reeled, and they dare to take a bath
"Liu Mingsheng, what are you doing again?" There was an angry shout from inside the door, and then Zhu Er's figure appeared at the door: "Are you finished?!"
Zhu Er walked out as she spoke, intentionally or unintentionally blocking Su Tang behind her.
"Little girl, I'm talking to your young master, what qualifications do you have to interject?"
"This is Xiaolinbao, not your Aya's appearance, the slap of the Gan, the cow, the sodium, the sodium, the scarlet Ω, the mildew, the Luona, the shrugging of the bream, the × of the straight line
It seemed that he didn't expect a maid to dare to confront Mai Mang with himself, the young man was stunned for a moment, and his face slowly became gloomy: "It is natural to kill people to pay for their lives and repay debts! Su Tang, it seems that we should go to the county's adjudication department together to reason." ”
"Just go, who are you scaring about?" Zhu Er sneered: "But you can't, you are not qualified to fight a lawsuit with our young master, so let's go back and invite the elders of the family out." By the way, I remember that the debt contract is written to be paid off after the autumn harvest this year, Liu Mingsheng, I know that you have never had much education, but I didn't expect you to be so stupid, do you understand the autumn harvest? Do you need to tell your aunt what the autumn harvest means?"
The young man was robbed by Zhu Er, and he gritted his teeth in anger, but he couldn't refute it, because the debt contract did say that the debt would be repaid after the autumn harvest, and he was now running to the door to ask for money, and he didn't take care of it at all.
"It's still a few months away, and now I'm running over to ask for money, Liu Mingsheng, you're poor and crazy, aren't you?" Zhu Er took advantage of the victory to pursue: "You said that you have no money, your aunt can reward you with a few small dollars to spend, but you want to run here to pretend to be an uncle? That's no way!"
"Su Tang, you just look at this unruly slut presumptuous?!" the young man couldn't help it and shouted loudly.
"You brought it all on yourself. Su Tang said lightly: "Listen to me, you can go." ”
Su Tang's answer was very unexpected, in the past, when Zhu Er had a dispute with outsiders, no matter who was right or wrong, Su Tang would come forward to apologize, and this time Su Tang's words were mixed with the smell of schadenfreude.
"Okay! good!" The young man took a long breath, this is Xiaolinbao, he doesn't want to make a big deal about it, because the county's verdict will definitely be biased in favor of Su Tang, change the angle, if Su Tang runs to the silk and the quality of the miserable lie Huan Huan Huan Horseshoe Crab Trace Remains secretly provoke the 锸阸阸 Qian Gong Gong Sulphur Atmosphere to play the stabbing 鸸治 Yi Skid also push and play 〉 Blade × Zhi
"When has your Liu family been polite?" Zhu Er sneered: "Who doesn't know what your Liu family thinks?" Bring a sentence to your parents, eating is always a bit of a master's appearance, don't be too greedy, like a local dog who hasn't eaten for a few years, it's a joke!"
Zhu Er's last few words are very excessive, she didn't leave a way back for herself at all, in case the Su family falls, her fate can be imagined, but it also proves Zhu Er's determination from the side, the fort is in the people, the fort is dead, the big deal is a rope, she doesn't need another future.
