Chapter 104 Thanks to General Song.

When they heard that they could return to their hometown, the Xia family couldn't sit still. They immediately packed their things and decided to go home.

  Su also wanted to go back. Although she was renting in the Ge family's house and didn't have much sense of belonging to that temporary home, she was leaving in a hurry and there were a lot of things that she didn't move.

  As the saying goes, a broken home is worth a thousand dollars, and it will cost a lot of money to buy the belongings that have not been moved away. She is no longer a noblewoman in the capital, and she knows that firewood and rice are expensive.

  Seeing Su's intention, Jiang Tangtang said: "Mom, I'll take someone to go back and take a look first! You and the child will stay in the city first. When the house is tidied up, we will come to pick you up."

  Su thought for a moment about what was going on at home . Given the situation, he naturally agreed to Jiang Tangtang's suggestion. Finally, Jiang Tangtang, Lu Shiyan, and two servants returned to Zhuangzi.

  People in the village had a lot of objections to the fact that Xia and Lu's family selfishly fled to the county town to hide from pirates regardless of the lives of the people in the village.

  Seeing the two families coming back, someone suddenly said with a sigh: "Thanks to General Song this time. If General Song hadn't led the troops to rescue us, we would have died this time! General Song is so kind, no It's like some people who live in a village, and at critical moments their hearts are as dark as the bottom of a pot."

  Jiang Tangtang was puzzled. Judging from the information she heard, General Song didn't look like a good official who served the country and the people. Why? Will suddenly come to the countryside to kill pirates.

  Over there, Manager Xia had already taken the initiative to ask her doubts, "Why did General Song suddenly send troops? It's not like there have been pirates before, but I've never seen him send troops out of kindness."

  "That's our luck. Okay!" Ge Shuanniang was still angry. A few days ago, the two families refused her a ride. She said angrily: "General Song's son came to our Zhuangzi. In order to protect his son, General Song led his troops to fight against pirates. !"

  "Why did Mr. Song's son suddenly come to our village?" Manager Xia said: "I have never heard that Mr. Song knew anyone in our village before!"

  Ge Shuanniang said: "Then who knows? Maybe it's just What a coincidence! Anyway! God has blessed me this time!"

  Jiang Tangtang couldn't help but turn around to look at Lu Shiyan. Is it really just a coincidence that General Song's son came to the village?

  He had been so busy with his people these days that he had lost weight. Could it be that he had designed General Song's son to come to the village and forced him to send troops?

  If General Song knew that he was being set up, could he let him go easily? Also, what did those words about retreat mean that day?

  Unfortunately, Lu Shiyan was squinting his eyes and dozing off against the carriage, as if he didn't hear what was said outside.

  In the end, Jiang Tangtang could only return home full of questions.

  "Hey, why is the door at home open?" He Qiuniang exclaimed as soon as the donkey cart stopped.

  "Is it possible that there are pirates hiding at home?" Hu Dangui asked fearfully.

  Lu Shiyan opened his eyes instantly, jumped off the donkey cart, and walked towards the ajar door.

  His movements were swift and swift, not like a person who was still drowsy just a moment ago. Jiang Tangtang was very suspicious. He just pretended to sleep in front of him on purpose.

  But at this time, she didn't have time to delve deeper.

  She dug out the crossbow Lu Shiyan had made for her in her bag and followed it carefully. He Qiuniang and Hu Dangui also took a stick each and walked defensively towards the room.

  In the room, Lu Bowen was rummaging around. When he saw Lu Shiyan and others entering, Lu Bowen's face flashed with embarrassment, "Eldest nephew, I saw that you were not at home, and I felt uneasy, so I came over to take a look."

  "That's how you are . Did you see it?" Lu Shiyan glanced at the big lock that had been pried off expressionlessly and said: "Pry the lock and enter the door. Third uncle's concern is quite special."

  "I didn't do this, it was like this when I came here. That's it." Lu Bowen said with an upright face.    

  "It might be more convincing if you put down your things when you say this." Lu Shiyan had a sarcastic smile on his face.

  Lu Bowen was stimulated by the smile on his face. He blushed and said: "I am also an elder after all. You are a junior who doesn't want to honor your elders. You are still young and you talk back to your elders everywhere. You are worthy of the ancestors of the Lu family." Zong?"

  "If the ancestors of the Lu family have spirits, the first one to be punished should be Third Uncle!" Lu Shiyan slowly approached him and said: "If it wasn't for the gift from Third Uncle, how could the Holy One be like this? To easily convict the entire Lu family?"

  Lu Bowen's color faded instantly and he said tremblingly: "What did you say? I don't understand what you are talking about?"

  "What I said, Third Uncle should know better than me. "Lu Shiyan seemed to care about him, raised his hand and patted the dust on his shoulder, "If you want to live, don't come here."

  Lu Bowen suddenly dropped the baggage in his hand as if he had seen a ghost, and went crazy . Ran.

  Raoying County, Song Mansion.

  General Song's armor was still on his body, and he sat carelessly on the chair. After gulping down a cup of tea, he said to his confidant below: "Have you checked it out?"

  "Have you checked it out? The young master is indeed sure this time. It's not nonsense, I did hear that an old woman selling fruit to the mansion was found in that area, so I took the risk to go there for the sake of the old lady's health."

  After Wu Zhouquan finished speaking, he looked at General Song carefully, and then said: " But the young master is probably plotting something against someone else. The old woman selling fruit had sent so many people out before but there was no news. How could it be such a coincidence that she got the news at that moment and bumped into the pirates as soon as she went there..."

  Mr. Song The soldier pondered for a moment and said, "Send someone to check."

  Wu Zhouquan took the order and left. General Song took a bath, changed his clothes, and went to see Mrs. Song.

  Since last summer, Mrs. Song has been in poor health. She has seen many doctors and taken many medicines, but there has been no improvement.

  Until a few days ago, Song Muci accidentally bought a few baskets of fresh fruits. After eating the fruits he bought, Mrs. Song's health miraculously improved.

  She used to be unable to eat, but now she can drink porridge and eat light meals these days.

  Song Zongbing was a filial son. Seeing that his mother's health had improved, he even liked his useless son.

  When she saw Song Muci, she didn't curse anyone. She just asked Mrs. Song: "Mom, are you feeling better?"

  Mrs. Song said distressedly: "What's wrong with me? It's you who stepped on the knife all day long. I'm always dragging you down when you're living a hard life."

  "Mom, please don't say that. Only with you can I feel at ease outside."

  I know that my mother always reports good news but not bad news for fear of worrying herself. After General Song chatted with Mrs. Song for a while, he called a few servants who were personally serving Mrs. Song and asked about Mrs. Song's situation.

  "The old lady hasn't been able to sleep well these days, but she won't let me tell you." The maid whispered.
