Chapter 127
"Did you know that Tongguan Pass was broken?" Tang Qianqian said suddenly.
Wang Xiao was a little confused and said: "Huh?"
"Everyone thought before that the bandits were just bandits." Tang Qianqian said softly: "But today the Lu family said that they have prepared for the worst. If Tang Zhongyuan can break through Tongguan, it is possible to break through Ningwu Pass and Juyong Pass...
"
Wang smiled and said: "So?"
Tang Qianqian said: "So? At this time, you listened to others without even asking me, and still want to buy land in the suburbs of Beijing?"
She said with tears in her eyes.
Wang Xiao was a little confused and said: "But, but I didn't spend the money from the coal shop."
"Are people angry with you because of money?"
Wang smiled and said "Oh", and then said: "I know it is stupid to buy land in the suburbs of Beijing at this time, but I have other ideas."
Tang Qianqian said: "Did people say you were stupid?"
"What happened?"
Tang Qianqian turned around and said: "What if Mr. Fu of yours is a liar when he asks you to buy land at this time? You didn't ask me, so you believed a liar..."
Wang Xiao was speechless.
——Sister Tang, you are a liar yourself, and you actually lied about others.
"But," Wang said with a smile, "it is my idea to buy land in the suburbs of Beijing. I made the plans myself and then asked Mr. Fu to come over."
"real?"
"Otherwise?" Wang Xiao really didn't know why, and he didn't know what this woman was minding.
Tang Qianqian smoothed her hair and said softly: "Then...do you treat others...differently from others?"
Wang Xiao rolled his eyes.
It’s really hard to guess what she’s thinking!
"What exactly do you want to say?" He had no choice but to ask directly.
Tang Qianqian lowered her head and said softly: "You knew I was a liar and you still believed me. I thought you treated me differently. But then Mr. Fu came and you knew he was a liar and you still believed him..."
Wang laughed angrily and cursed in a low voice: "You woman, you are too thoughtful."
Tang Qianqian lowered her head like a little daughter-in-law, seeming a little shy.
Wang smiled and stroked his forehead without saying a word.
"I just want you to have me in your heart." Seeing that he was extremely angry, Tang Qianqian said softly: "I will listen to what you say from now on. You can leave your business to others if you want..."
"Don't you understand yet?" Wang said with a smile, "What I want Mr. Fu to take care of is not business, but..."
"What is it?"
"Yes..." Wang Xiao was stunned for a moment.
Tang Qianqian took his hand and said softly: "I'm not dissatisfied that you found someone else. I just want to know what you are thinking."
Wang Xiao murmured: "What am I thinking?"
"Yeah." Tang Qianqian sat next to him and said softly: "Uncle Wang told me what happened in the afternoon, but I don't understand what you think."
Her face was very close to Wang Xiao, and she looked at him with watery eyes.
After a long time, Wang Xiao sighed and said: "Why do you say... I just feel that people in this era are living too hard."
"Cold, hungry, sick, desperate... I opened my eyes and saw that most of the people in this world are in a state of confusion. They are struggling to live every day without any sign of happiness. I went out of the city gate yesterday
, I saw many people freezing to death and starving to death, just rolled up a straw mat and passed away..."
Wang Xiao was a little confused and said: "But even so, now is not the most terrifying time."
"You just said that the Lu family is preparing to retreat to the south of the Yangtze River. In fact, some people have already realized what is coming to this capital, this north, and then the entire Chu country."
"Disasters, plagues, rebels, the Qing army...Next, these will take away the lives of these people one by one. But they are all living people. In the face of human life, I will spend some money to buy it.
If we grow food on the land, even if we lose money or are accused of being taken advantage of, what does it matter?"
Tang Qianqian was stunned.
From evening to now, she had made a lot of guesses, and she still didn't understand the reason why Wang Xiao did what he did.
This made her feel that this boy was out of her control.
This feeling of not being able to fathom his thoughts made her a little uneasy.
But he didn't expect that he did it for such a simple reason...
Wang Xiao sighed and said: "I also know that even if many people escape this plague, they will die at the hands of the rebels or the Manchus. But when I came here, I always felt that I should do something.
Because I am different from others in the world..."
Tang Qianqian beside him leaned her head on his shoulder.
The faint fragrance of her body made him feel a little reassured.
Wang Xiao added: "I know that the Chu Dynasty may not have much energy. Maybe it will only last for a year or two, and those things will come to an end. I am also afraid. I want to take you and Ying'er to escape to the south of the Yangtze River, or even
Escape overseas. But I just don’t want to escape without doing anything. Now that I’m here, I can’t just escape.”
"Mr. Fu is a powerful person, so I want to help him do these things. Anyway, I will save as many people as I can by then."
As he said this, he suddenly felt a little relieved.
He is actually a bit cowardly, for example, he wants to escape overseas.
There was also some greed, such as taking Tang Qianqian and Ying'er with me. After I finished speaking, I suddenly thought that I might take Qin Xiaozhu with me...
But these thoughts, whether they are cowardly or greedy, are what he is really thinking in his heart.
Now that I say it, I feel much better.
Tang Qianqian leaned on his shoulder and whispered: "Then I'll do it with you."
"real?"
"Yeah." She snorted softly and said, "As people said, whatever you say is what it is."
Wang Xiao felt quite anxious in his heart.
Tang Qianqian stroked his body gently with her fingers.
"You don't even have any clothes, are you cold?" she said softly.
Wang Xiao's eyelids twitched.
After coaxing this woman, she started driving again.
"No, it's not cold."
Tang Qianqian smiled and said: "You are obviously shaking. It doesn't matter, I will keep you warm."
As he said that, he came up...
The carriage stopped in the snowy lane.
Huazhi covered her eyes with a hand, opened the curtain and looked around, and saw that although the two people in the carriage were like that, they didn't have that.
Huazhi then put down his palm and said, "We're home."
Wang Xiao looked over and said, "I won't go in just in case anyone sees it."
Tang Qianqian covered her mouth and smiled: "Don't worry, the neighbor who reported you last time was actually Huazhi. No one is watching you now."
ha?
Wang Xiao was stunned for a moment and then understood.
"But, it's nothing, why should I go to your house?"
Having said that, there was indeed a lot of tenderness in leaning against her during the journey. When Tang Qianqian got off the carriage, he felt a little cold on his back, as if something was missing.
Tang Qianqian smiled and said: "If you don't tell me your ideas and plans, how can I do it for you?"
"You still want to talk so late?" Wang Xiao sniffed, quite surprised.
