Chapter Fourteen: The Sound of Xia Asks for Help from the Heavy Building
"What should I do? Why did Sheng Sheng get into this all her life? She didn't think about it. She went out to find Zhongzhonglou. If she was in danger, how would her mother live?" Mrs. Gu was so angry that she cursed in her heart. Xia Shengsheng was unfilial, and she was angry and weighed heavily on the building, which attracted the soul of her girl.
Silence late at night.
Xia Shengsheng was spinning at the edge of the forest, her hands gripping the hem of her skirt hard, she couldn't help but look around, feeling terrified in her heart.
It was already dark now, and the tall trees overhead blocked the sky. She couldn't even see a single star, and could only spin helplessly in the forest.
She was so impulsive that she didn't even know where the heavy building was, so she came over in a hurry. Now that she was here, she got lost.
Xia Shengsheng's clothes were torn by the surrounding thorns, and she squatted helplessly on the spot, numb all over and terrified.
"Uncle Shen, where are you? Wuwuwu, the sound is scary..."
Xia Shengsheng gritted her teeth and lowered her head, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably. She was so scared that something might happen to her on this mountain.
She regretted it.
She shouldn't have come to Chongzhonglou. How could Lao Shizi's princess and concubine be so important as her own life?
She remembered that her mother once said that there were many wild beasts on this mountain, and if they ate her, she would have nothing!
There was sudden movement behind him, and Xia Shengsheng was so frightened that he panicked and did not dare to move any further.
"Uncle Shen? Yes, is it you?"
There was a fire approaching her, and Xia Shengsheng rushed over in surprise, pushing aside the wildly growing weeds. When Xia Shengsheng faced the handsome face of Zhonglou, tears burst out from her eyes: "That's great, it's really you! I It was so hard to find you..."
Xia Shengsheng threw herself into Zhongzhonglou's arms and sobbed softly on his chest.
Zhongzhonglou looked at her in surprise, and the warm fragrance in his arms made a subtle feeling rise in his heart. Considering that Xia Shengsheng must have been frightened a lot at this moment, Zhongzhonglou did not push her away, but stretched out his arms. He stretched out his arms and gently held her in his arms: "Don't cry, why are you here?"
The Shen family and the Xia family are neighbors, and Xia Shengsheng grew up watching Zhonglou.
The girl in his arms raised her head slightly and looked at him aggrievedly.
The girl's eyes were red, and her fair face was soaked with tears. Seeing this, Zhong Zhonglou's heart skipped a beat and ripples appeared.
Xia Shengsheng said eagerly: "It's Nian Nian, Nian Nian he was expelled from the academy!"
Zhonglou was stunned for a moment.
It was his arrangement to let Shen Niannian go to school. His identity as a prince is true and he will return to the court sooner or later. These children will not be ordinary people in the future. They will definitely be among the best. It is also good to let them receive education earlier. When he came back this time, he originally wanted to arrange for Shen to study today, but why was Shen expelled every year?
"what happened?"
"Mr. Xu suddenly wanted to accept a disciple two days ago, and he took today with him every year."
"Mr. Xu was originally very optimistic about today, but Zhang Xiaofan begged him to take him in, and he had a few words with Zhang Xiaofan in Nian Nian. The two children probably accidentally pushed him. As a result, Zhang Xiaofan refused to let him go, so Mr. Xu took Nian Nian away. They kicked me out!"
"What."
Zhongzhonglou was shocked. He didn't expect such a change. "Didn't Nan support them?"
"Aunt Nan sent them to see the official..." Xia Shengsheng looked at Zhongzhonglou and said in a soft voice, "I guess it is because the Zhang family is so powerful that Aunt Nan had no support in her heart, so she had no choice but to do this. Uncle Shen, Don't blame aunt, she can't help it. I feel so sorry for them. I thought of coming to you after seeing them so sad every year... I know this is your family's family matter, and I shouldn't interfere."
Xia Sheng said, tears about to fall down again.
"How can I blame you..." Zhonglou sighed.
Xia Shengsheng risked his life to deliver a letter to him, but he was moved before it was too late.
Thinking of the situation over at Shen Niannian, Zhongzhonglou became a little anxious.
Xia Shengsheng looked at Zhongzhonglou. Zhongzhonglou was different from ordinary farmers. He was handsome, with sword-shaped eyebrows on his temples and thin lips pursed. Against the background of the firelight, he looked extraordinarily tall. In such a quiet night, he gave Xia Shengsheng a lot of attention. The sound of endless courage.
Such a good man married a woman like Nan Jiangnan...
Xia Shengsheng was a little unwilling. Suddenly, her foot stumbled and she fell towards the heavy building: "Yeah!"
Xia Shengsheng had a delicate figure and fell into Shen Chonglou's arms. He felt a warm fragrance pouring into his arms, and his soft and delicate body filled his arms. Xia Shengsheng seemed to be frightened, and took a step back as if his face was red. He wanted to keep a distance from Shen Chonglou, but his body couldn't help but feel weak.
Zhonglou was startled and had no choice but to stretch out his hand to help her.
"Shen, Uncle Shen..."
Xia Shengsheng raised her eyes to look at him in surprise, and couldn't help but said shyly: "I'm sorry, my legs are really weak..."
"It doesn't matter." Zhongzhonglou shook his head.
With Wen Yu in his arms, his heart was filled with charm, but Zhongzhonglou continued to suppress the restlessness in his heart. Xia Shengsheng was still a little girl and was going to get married in the future. He couldn't delay her.
Although he was very worried about Shen Niannian's condition, it was not the time to go back now. Xia Shengsheng was too tired and needed to rest.
Zhongzhonglou had no choice but to find a cave and settle Xia Shengsheng.
Xia Shengsheng leaned in Shen Chonglou's arms and suddenly said: "Uncle Shen, can you not blame Aunt Nan when you go back? I believe she has her own reasons..."
"The reason?"
"I married her just to let her take care of my children. No matter how hard it is, I can't turn my elbows away." Zhongzhonglou said it righteously. From the beginning, he always thought that Nan Jiangnan was a hard-working and good girl. She could take care of several children, but she didn't expect that she would let Zhang Xiaofan bully his son, and even let his son be kicked out of the academy, leaving a stigma.
Thinking of this, Zhongzhonglou couldn't help clenching his fists, his eyes filled with anger.
He glanced at Xia Shengsheng beside him and sighed: "Fortunately, I have you, otherwise I wouldn't even know that the children would be wronged at home."
In one sentence, Xia Shengsheng's heart felt particularly warm.
The next morning, Zhongzhonglou protected Xia Shengsheng down the mountain.
The road down the mountain that Zhongzhong chose was closer to Ping'an Town. His original plan was to buy a gift for each of his four children in Ping'an Town, and then go to the academy to see Shen Niannian. But he didn't expect that now it was already there. Human beings are not.
When Zhongzhonglou passed by Xu's Academy, Song Yi happened to be sweeping outside the house. When he saw Zhongzhonglou, he immediately glared at him with a broom in his hands: "What are you doing here? Don't you think my husband is not miserable enough because of your family's anger?"
Song Yi's eyes were full of hostility, which made Zhongzhong Lou frown and walk towards him: "What do you mean by this? Tell me clearly!"
"How else should we be clear? It's not all because of Shen Niannian. If it weren't for him, Mr. Xu wouldn't be seriously ill and bedridden!" Song Yi gritted his teeth. Mr. Xu was already old and couldn't stand his anger. Jiang Nan was rescued, but whenever he thought of what Shen Niannian had done, Mr. Xu would be heartbroken and extremely sad.
This is a heart disease, a heart disease that cannot be cured!
