Chapter 266 Misunderstanding
After Lu Chengjing finished writing, he came out to look for his daughter. Chu Xu looked up and saw him, and immediately ran over to say hello, "Uncle Lu!"
Lu Chengjing was stunned for a moment, then softened his expression, He stretched out his hand and rubbed the child's head, "When did you come?"
"Just arrived." Chu Xu raised his head and gave Lu Chengjing a thumbs up, "Uncle Lu, you passed the exam in the first try." , It’s really amazing.”
Just as Lu Chengjing opened his mouth to speak, there was a sudden noise outside the house, one of which was the sound of stones.
Shang Wan went out in a flash.
Others also hurried out to take a look.
“Want to fight?” Shitou glared at the bearded man in front of him, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to fight.
He went to the academy to drop out today. When he came back, he saw such a group of people gathered in front of his house, and even beat up people trying to break in.
“Misunderstanding, misunderstanding.” Chen Cai stood between the two of them, “Speak carefully if you have something to say. A gentleman should talk but not use his hands.”
"No misunderstanding." Shitou stretched out his hand and pulled Chen Cai aside. "So many of them gathered at the door of my house. They even pulled out their knives. If I hadn't come back in time, they would have broken in."
"I just wanted to knock on the door." The bearded man explained.
"You beat up my steward, do you just want to knock on the door?" Shitou pointed to the steward beside him with a big swelling on his forehead.
The steward was pushed by the bearded man and accidentally hit the doorpost. At this moment, there were stars in front of his eyes.
"He didn't stand firm on his own." The younger brother standing behind the bearded man muttered.
Shitou defended his shortcomings like his sister, and immediately became angry after hearing this, "Is it justified for you to hit people?"
He was just about to give Lu Wu a punch and let Lu Wu have a taste of his own power, and he jumped forward. Suddenly someone pulled me back.
He didn't even need to look back. With this familiar strength, the person coming must be his sister.
The young man immediately complained: "Sister, they beat our family members and they still haven't apologized."
Shang Wan let go of Shi Shi's clothes, glanced at the bearded group, and asked who was standing there Chen Cai on the side: "What's going on?"
"This is a misunderstanding." When Chen Cai saw Shang Wan come out to stop him, Chen Cai let out a sigh of relief and pointed at the bearded man, "This is Vice General Shi of the Chu family army. He is not here to cause trouble."
He pointed at Shang Wan again and said to Shi Changsheng: "This is the shopkeeper Shang of the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion."
Shi Changsheng nodded towards Shang Wan, his tiger eyes looking probing, "You What kind of movement did you use just now? "
The woman appeared in the blink of an eye, but he didn't even see it clearly with his eyesight.
"Qinggong." Shang Wan was also looking at Vice General Shi and asked, "Are you here to see A Nian?"
Vice Admiral Shi was not happy to be treated perfunctorily, but his expression was obscured by his beard. He nodded and asked: "Where is the young master?"
"Uncle Shi."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Xu ran out of the gate, but instead of jumping on him, he hugged the young man who was about to fight with him just now.
The two of them met and whispered a few words, and they seemed to have a good relationship.
Shi Changsheng was immediately heartbroken. On the way here, he had hunted hares and roasted pheasants for this guy A Nian for free.
Chen Cai told what happened just now. As he said, it was just a misunderstanding.
Shi Changsheng didn't hit anyone, he was just born with great strength and couldn't handle the task, so he fell and hit the doorpost.
This group of people had been holding their knives in their hands. They pulled them out because the scabbards of the two men were broken and there was no place to put them away.
"Aunt Shang, Uncle Lu, Uncle Shi, he has no bad intentions." Chu Xu remembered that Shi Changsheng was here, and raised his little hand to help ensure.
"Since it's a misunderstanding, it's good to explain it clearly." Lu Chengjing bowed his hand to Shi Changsheng, "My brother is young and will inevitably act impulsively, so please don't blame me."
Shi Changsheng waved his hand, "It's not entirely a misunderstanding. I did push him down by mistake." He gave the steward some money to use for medical expenses.
Remembering that he had just scolded this group of people, Shi Shi was a little embarrassed. After apologizing, he helped the steward go in and apply the medicine.
Lu Chengjing invited Shi Changsheng and his party inside.
"Uncle Shi, she is the sister Yuanyuan I mentioned to you." Chu Xu led Yuanyuan and walked beside Shi Changsheng, his little chin raised, feeling proud.
Shi Changsheng lowered his eyes and looked at the little fat boy next to him. He was very cute because he was white and fat, and he was not afraid of him.
It is rare for a little baby not to be afraid of his appearance.
He deliberately approached with a fierce look. His original intention was to tease the baby. Unexpectedly, his cheek hurt and three strands of his beard were pulled off by the baby in front of him.
The boys took a breath of air and pulled their beards, three in total! The general won't get angry, right?
Yuanyuan was just interested in the black beard on the face of this bear-like uncle. Now that they are all in front of her, how can she not pull out a few of them to take a look?
But she began to dislike it when her hand was grabbed. She clapped her little hand and tried to stick it back to Uncle Xiongxiong
But how could the pulled-off beard be stuck back? But Yuanyuan thought it was okay, so she slapped her hand upwards, turning Deputy General Shi's cheeks red.
You guys are taking a breath, this little kid is so brave.
Before Shi Changsheng could react, Chu Xu picked up Yuanyuan and ran to the backyard, running like a dog.
The three beards fluttered on the ground and were blown to the corner by the wind passing under the eaves.
Shi Changsheng's face suddenly darkened, and he looked at the baby's parents.
Shang Wan and Lu Chengjing stood as if nothing happened. Even when Shi Changsheng looked over, Shang Wan smiled politely at him.
Shi Changsheng: "..."
Although he doesn't want to argue with a little baby, is there anything wrong with your attitude as parents?
He is a general after all!
Chen Cai suddenly coughed and winked at Shi Changsheng.
Don’t forget that you came to thank me.
Shi Changsheng and Chen Cai had no tacit understanding at all, and even felt that Chen Cai's eyes were cramping.
Chen Cai: "..."
Fortunately, the atmosphere did not cool down for too long. Seeing that these people were close to Chu Xu, Shang Wan spoke up to smooth things over.
The group of people sat down in the hall, and Xiaohuan went to make tea.
Shi Changsheng started talking, mainly to express his gratitude to Shang Wan's family on behalf of his own marshal, and to offer gifts by the way.
Gifts are expensive but not expensive. Looking at the things on the table, Chen Cai guessed that Chu Xu probably said a lot of good things about Shang Wan and the others after returning home. He was envious just looking at them.
At the same time, Vice General Shi proposed to take his brothers to escort Shang Wan and his party to the capital.
Of course there was a reason why Chu Xu had to follow Shang Wan and the others, but the most important thing was Marshal Chu’s kindness.
It's a long way from Dongning County to the capital, and with Shi Changsheng and his party escorting them, the journey will definitely be much safer.
Although Shang Wan feels that his family does not need it, if he encounters bandits or bandits, he is not sure who will deal with him.
But she accepted it.
In the capital, a place where powerful people gather, there is no harm in having a good relationship with Duke Dingguo.
There are not enough rooms in the mansion, but fortunately Shang Wan and the others will be leaving in a few days. Shang Wan went to the nearest inn and booked a room for Shi Changsheng and his party to stay temporarily.
The day to leave is getting closer.
