Chapter 12 A True Hero Makes Light of Life and D

  After looking at the painting, also arrived at the meal time, the fourth house family ate dinner together, the atmosphere can't be said to be harmonious and happy to talk and laugh, but it's not as bad as it is.   Originally do father's no frame, do mother's and a faction of amicable, the atmosphere of the family is also difficult to depress up.   It seems to be more or less the same as in memory right ...... To say it is different, that is, this righteous brother of hers also sat at the table.   Xu Shanran's gaze moved away with a single touch on Ren Chenglin's face who was sitting next to Xu Peidong.   This is good, and it will be like this in the future.   There is also ......   The maid behind her who was laying out the food gave Xu Shanran a slice of bamboo shoots.   Xu Shanran ate it into her mouth, chewed it carefully, and thought again: her concubine brother, the one who became the final winner in his last life, was it because of luck and coincidence, or was it the result of a deliberate plot?   She didn't need to raise her eyes to look at the other person to draw an image of him from her own memories.   Mute, silent, and no talent in poetry and science, even as his father's only son, not even his own sibling sister more loved by his father.   First, there is grace in the new emperor was pardoned to stay in the capital, and then because of the death of the whole family of Xu family and was promoted ...... although in the end and because of the smashed errand and was prosecuted by the officials of greed and under the prison copying the family banishment, but in the end there has been a period of time of scenery. And then combined with the memory of the person a look, as if it is because of luck and coincidence.   But what if it wasn't?   If this is the result of his deliberate scheming, if his current mute and silence are all feigned ...... Xu Shanran s eyelids gently trembled.   But why?   Although he was a concubine, but at least now he was still his father's only son, why did Xu Danyu have to pretend?   In such a scenario, he still felt that someone in this family would want to harm him?   After the meal, Xu Peidong naturally stayed in the main house, and the children dispersed after a short while.   Xu Shanran took the girl back to his own less than residence, just before the foot into the yard, the foot after Ren Chenglin with Xu Peidong out of the several boxes of things brought to Xu Shanran.   Xu Shanran explained to Green Parrot and Red Parrot to open and pack the boxes, while he invited Ren Chenglin to sit in the outer room.   The little girl in the courtyard served tea and then walked away, Xu Shanran had not yet opened her mouth to ask, Ren Chenglin will tell the things one by one: "Sister, those alms I, as you said, rented a room in the outer city, two months after the mountain, the capital has a lot of people know about us, the store was just rented the first day of a lot of old people to queue up, and the second day after I added a congee as you said. According to you said to add a porridge shed, give a bowl of thin porridge to the people lining up, all of a sudden joined a lot of beggars ......"   After more than two months, Ren Chenglin realized that he actually still didn't understand Xu Shanran's thoughts.   If it's just purely returning the wish, then the extra three layers of silver are already enough, those poor people even if they have to spend time to queue up, they are also very willing to accept this or to buy some vegetables and fruits, or to pick up water to deliver the errand, but if they are then in the process of their queuing to give alms to the thin gruel, the beggars around them will all of a sudden flock over; for those who are poor, the poorer are not so poor that it's not less than a bowl of thin gruel, the addition of which also does nothing more than to give They quench their thirst, but for those beggars, this is still cold weather more of this bowl of porridge, maybe he can let him live to the next year.   Although the intention of this thing is to give alms, help the poor is to help, save the beggars is to save, but because of the beggars are lined up, that the line was stretched a lot, would have been willing to come here to do things for the poor counted down to the time and unconscionable, one after another also do not come, the two days is a team to see the past, all dressed in the old and weak beggars in a disheveled manner.   Ren Chenglin will be a long series of circumstances to say clearly, feel dry mouth, a mouthful of tea in the cup, immediately have found their own action is too rude, busy gently put the cup on the table, said, "Sister ......"   "Huh?" Xu Shanran looked at Ren Chenglin, from beginning to end, she did not interrupt the other party, nor did she show any different look.   Ren Chenglin's words, "Or else we'll remove the congee store" turned around on the tip of his tongue a few times, but was still swallowed back by the master himself, and what came out instead was, "What's sister's idea?"   Xu Shanran smiled sincerely, "That's what I think. The matter of alms, although it is for me, do on two months will be just, now but the days are still short can not see, and then after a long time, brother you go, and blocked the way of people's wealth, but also be peeped into the profits, sooner or later, the ills of a series of diseases, not to mention the other, let's say that if some people specialize in looking for the poor people to line up, and then sell the position, we are to drive them or not to drive them? If we drive, those people are really poor people; if not, we do this charity, and ultimately fertilize the pockets of which family?"   "And those beggars--"   "Brother used to walk around outside from time to time, so he naturally knows the importance of news. Snakes have snake road, rats have rat road, I use a bowl of thin porridge for some loose news, benefit but not cost, but also does not attract anyone's eyes, brother you say?"   Ren Chenglin was actually a bit dumbfounded.   He couldn't understand why his own Miss Duchess of State, who was held in the palm of her hand and favored by her righteous father and mother, would think about these things.   But she just really thought about it, and said it all ......   So now, as far as he was concerned, there was really only one question.   --Whether or not to accompany Xu Shanran to do it? Although Xu Shanran spoke to him in such a clear way, he knew with his knees that these things could never be told to his righteous father and mother.   Ren Chenglin didn't hesitate for long, he answered very quickly and solemnly, "Yes."   Although his father is for Xu Peidong and died, but his father is Xu Peidong's martial arts master general, signed a contract to take the silver will have to fulfill the promise to save the Lord and died but also should be righteousness, should hate only those heartless robbers; coupled with Xu Peidong in the return immediately after he was accepted as a righteous son, it can be said that Xu Peidong for Ren Chenglin for there has never been hatred but only benevolence.   Therefore, even if Xu Peidong neglected him a little bit in the following years, Ren Chenglin never held any grudges, and only hated himself for not being a good student and letting his father down.   Similarly, even if there is a righteous relatives in the name, but at this time this high-ranking officials and dignitaries more recognized the style of righteousness, Xu Shanran really do not need to seriously treat him as an elder brother to honor.   This is this time since he saw Xu Shanran in the Da Ci Temple mountain since, Xu Shanran more than everywhere when he is a legitimate brother like respect, but also do not know in front of the righteous father and mother for him to say a lot of good words, this love as Xu Peidong, no matter how, he also want to think of ways to repay a two.   Sister since you want to do so just do it! Maybe it's just a little girl's heart that gets lazy after a while.   Besides, if something goes wrong, he shoulders the responsibility is also, anyway, will not call sister's reputation damaged.   These thoughts to say quite long, think but short, so but a few breaths of effort, Ren Chenglin has already made up his mind and answered Xu Shanran.   Receiving the expected answer, Xu Shanran did not reveal a smile, but instead sighed quietly in her heart.   In this one instant, she almost didn't need to make an effort to think of Ren Chenglin's choice that year when she had just brought down Lin Shixuan and had gotten the name of the bandit who had killed the entire Xu family from Wei ShuiXiu.   The man who had passed his prime at that time but never married was also sitting in front of her.   But he was no longer a bit green and hesitant as he was now.   He just calmly drank his wine, pressed his sword, smiled and said goodbye to her, saying sister take care of yourself, I'm going.   I am going. I am going to kill those people, I am going to avenge my righteous father.   It is this simple, no delay, no stay, after one sentence, the middle-aged man did not even give her the opportunity to persuade another cup of wine, directly whirled around and hit the horse and left.   After this time, Xu Shanran no longer heard the news of his own righteous brother.   Perhaps as early as when he received the news of Xu Peidong's murder, Ren Chenglin had thought about and even been preparing for this day.   So he does not look for a woman, and do not want children, just for this day time no longer even dragged the widow and orphan for him to worry, also do not let the wife and child to shake his determination.   Admittedly, Xu Peidong accepted Ren Chenglin as his son, and helped Ren Chenglin to seek employment in the army, so that he can make a name for himself.   But a thousand hardships are only death.   Even if she, the biological daughter, at this moment, how could she ever do this to Ren Chenglin?   The great favor of the heavens has also been repaid.   In this world, there is Lin Shixuan such a wolf hearted man, there is also Ren Chenglin such only for the sake of love and righteousness, will not wrinkle the eyebrow eyes without blinking to throw away the life of the hero.   This time, is their Xu family owes Ren Chenglin.   Xu Shanran left the seat, solemnly rushed Ren Chenglin converge lapel down to worship: "Thank you brother help."   Ren Chenglin panicked and quickly stood up: "But it's just some small things, sister don't need to be too polite."   Xu Shanran laughed and said, "There will be many such small things in the future." In the end, he bowed again.   Said because before the hall of the maid dismissed to go, Xu Shanran personally walked to the four open house, let the courtyard of the little girl to go to the back of the green parrot called over.   Usually responsible for the tea of the little girl hastened to answer, jogging to less than the residence of the Treasury side, but might as well be bumped into the red parrot and green parrot argument.   Ren Chenglin just brought the box have all been open to, the contents of the goods are also one by one inventory records.   But the reason why the red parrot and the green parrot dispute, is because the first by Tang Xin tube, and now also did not conclusively command to hand over to who is responsible for the piece of jewelry gold and silver.   From the girl came back, first of all, tang heart thing, then again is the jewelry thing, red parrot only feel day to day is not good, to now face are a little angry white: "but a few pieces of jewelry only, the girl did not say by who is in charge of, not confined to be you take also or I look at it, you do not say that both of us have access to the bottom of the list, prefer to one person in charge of the jewelry a person in charge of the key, like afraid of It's like you're afraid that someone will steal the girl's things!"   And red parrot quarrel these words, green parrot also some angry, in the end two people are a place out, and is their own proposal of trouble things, so still good sister you don't gas, I'm all for the girl, not to say who will be unclean hands and feet, just now the girl has not yet said specifically to hand things over to who, we'll be temporarily trouble some, when the time comes to hand over the good and clean, we'll be able to get the girl's jewelry. I'm not saying that anyone will be clean, just that the girl hasn't said who she's going to give it to yet, so we'll be in trouble for a while. Besides, we are all in the same room, just a few steps away, how troublesome can it be?"   The red parrot sneered: "Trouble is nothing, I do see some people have to not believe in their own sisters, go out on a trip to put on an act, wringing out some trivial matters do not know who to do it to see!" Said a glance to stand in the distance do not know whether to go forward the little girl, dengchun drank a sound, a cavity of anger are sent to the other body: "Sneaky what to do it! Is not like you green parrot sister said want unclean hands and feet touch away something?"   The little girl was so bellowed, tears in her eyes: "No, it is the girl called me to teach the green parrot sister in the past."   Green parrot heard the red parrot just that sentence, is also a heart of anger, is about to and red parrot good quarrel on a few words, heard the words of the little girl, can not help but will be angry hard suppressed, to the red parrot threw a sentence, "wait to see the girl I will talk to you", then turned around and said: "your red parrot sister hair evil fire, do not talk to her! I'll apologize to you on her behalf. Let's go, where is the girl now?"   Red parrot heart is really not good, shouted at the green parrot: "You do not girl long girl short, followed the girl out for a period of time, just will pull the girl to talk?"   Green parrot head also did not return, coldly dropped a sentence: "Better than some are in the girl's house still old lady long old lady short it!"
