Chapter Forty-Eight: The Mysterious Boy
"Drinking? What's your name?" Xu An said.
The boy shook his head, "I don't have a name. ”
Xu An was a little puzzled, a person can name his sword, why does he not have a name? He became more and more curious about this young man.
He observed the young man's hand and found that there was a thick cocoon on it, but there was not even the slightest fluctuation of vitality on his body.
"Are you a sword cultivator?" asked Xu An.
"No, I'm just a sword-acolyzer, and this sword is my master. He took out a very clean handkerchief, wiped the wine off the sword, put it in its sheath, and set it aside.
Squire-acolyzer?Xu An searched the memories in his mind and found that he had never heard of this word.
Maybe this young man cherishes his sword very much, Xu An thought to himself, he patted the dust on his body, stood up, and said to the young man: "I still have something to do, you can rest." ”
The boy nodded at his back, his eyes a little puzzled, not knowing what he was thinking.
......
After the food was distributed, Xu An distributed daily necessities and production tools to each family, and the reclamation of this land required a lot of work, including a series of work such as demarcating fields, allocating, planting, and giving birth, as well as building houses, as well as education, commerce, and craftsmanship.
Xu An didn't have much experience in this area, but fortunately, Hu Lao had a lot of experience and knew a lot, and all this was arranged by him.
It wasn't until the evening that the relief work on the first day was completed, and Xu An took a group of people back to Tang Feng City in a carriage.
He is in a very good mood, and he has gained a lot of goodwill points from going out for disaster relief this time, which was originally only close to 200,000, but now it is more than 350,000.
There are not many ordinary people among the refugees in Jiangyu County, and all of them have experience in cultivation, but they all stop at the third and fourth levels of Yanqi, and Xu An can judge from the increased favorability value that nearly half of them have a good impression of him.
People who have not reached the Yuan Creation Realm have a favorability value towards Xu An, at most no more than five hundred points, which is what he learned in the previous situation when the favorability value increased, and today this situation has made him quite satisfied.
Of course, what makes him even happier is the process of helping others, even if he doesn't have a favor, he will be obliged to do something like this.
The three of them sat in the carriage, and Chu Qin and Xu An went back to Xu's mansion together, feeling a little apprehensive.
Xu An could see it, remembered the strange boy he had seen before, and asked, "Xiaoqin, is there a young man in your Jiangyu County who holds a sword all day long?"
Chu Qin came back to his senses, "It's the young man with the sword on his back, and that sword is called drinking." ”
"Yes, that's him. What kind of person do you think he is?" Xu An wanted to get some answers from Chu Qin.
Chu Qin shook his head, "He is not a native of our Jiangyu County, he only came to our Jiangyu County recently, and it happened to be a flood, so he came to Tang Feng City with us." ”
"Not from Jiangyu County?" Xu An frowned.
He was very silent, and he didn't want to be ignored when others greeted him on weekdays, as if he only had that sword in his eyes. He also often bathed the sword with wine, saying that the sword was meant to drink. Chu Qin added.
"Is there anything else?" Xu An didn't give up.
"No, by the way, he seems to be very poor and can't eat, Aunt Cai often gives him food. ”
"Doesn't he have the money to buy wine, why don't you use the money to eat?" Xu An didn't understand.
Chu Qin shook his head and sighed: "I don't understand either, Aunt Cai talked to him the most, but Aunt Cai died in this flood." ”
Xu An felt a little sorry in his heart, such a young man must have a lot of sad things hidden in his heart.
The carriage traveled all the way and soon came to the Xu Mansion.
The Xu Mansion is brightly lit at the moment, and there are people looking at the door.
"Little brother, you're back. Xu Furong waited at the door, and when she saw Xu An, she immediately smiled brightly.
It was a little cold, and she was wearing a little thin, Xu An jumped out of the carriage and put the shawl on her body on Xu Furong, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, "Sister, let's go in and talk." ”
Xu Furong saw a girl she had never seen walking on the carriage, followed Xu An side by side into Xu's mansion, and said in a low voice: "Little brother, where did you come from?"
When Xu An heard this, he immediately straightened his face and said righteously: "Sister, I have changed my past, you have to believe in my character." ”
Xu Furong looked at him with a smile and shook her head, "Don't talk to me about character, tell the truth." ”
Xu An looked depressed, "Well, it's actually like this." ”
Xu An told Xu Furong everything that happened outside the city gate before, and added fuel and vinegar.
He knew that the ironing of this matter was the most appropriate to say from Xu Furong's mouth, and at this moment, he tried his best to render the foreshadowing, telling the story eloquently, and the twists and turns were euphemistic, and it was deeply moving.
After listening to Gujing Wubo, Xu Furong looked at him in surprise.
"Little brother, when did you become so bold? Don't tell your family about such a big thing?"
Xu An pinched Xu Furong's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Sister, aren't you telling you, you said that there is chaos outside now, and it is really pitiful for a girl to live in such an environment, I know that my father is most unaccustomed to seeing the suffering of the people, so he took it upon himself to take this matter down first, of course, if you don't want to, then drive it away." ”
When Xu Furong heard this, she felt angry and funny, and slapped him lightly on the head, "You just make trouble, if you don't cause trouble for three days, you think that others don't know about your existence." ”
The two were talking, and before they knew it, they came to the main hall, at this moment Xu Wenyi was chatting with his wife Qin, and when he saw everyone coming back, more new faces came out, and he couldn't help but be a little puzzled and looked at Xu An.
Xu An looked at Xu Furong for help, Xu Furong understood, walked to the side of the second elder and whispered, Qin Shi listened to the tears, and looked at Chu Qin's eyes became soft and pity.
Chu Qin was a little cramped and wanted to speak, but he didn't know where to start.
Seeing her like this, the Qin family took the initiative to step forward, held Chu Qin's hand in the palm of his hand, and sighed: "Girl, you have suffered." ”
"From now on, Xufu is your home, and you can live here with peace of mind. ”
Chu Qin's heart swelled with warmth, and she looked at Xu An, Xu An nodded at her, and she bowed her head, "Thank you, madam." ”
Originally, she had thought about thousands of situations, investigating her identity, asking about her origin, or verbally ridiculing, refusing or agreeing, she had expected it, but she didn't expect it to be so easy.
Xu Wenyi smiled with relief, turned to look at Xu An, and asked, "An'er, how are things going?"
