Next, the three of them tacitly ignored the matter of the Huzhou Purple Hair Pen and didn't mention it. Shen You could also feel Dai Luoshu's curiosity. Seeing that she didn't speak, he happily remained reserved.

Although the west courtyard is not as prosperous as the main courtyard, it looks like a row of about a dozen rooms, large and small, and then there is the courtyard filled with plum blossom and pomegranate trees and various flowers and plants. The wintersweet flower that is unknown how old is in bud.

Although no one lives there, there are always dedicated people cleaning it. The Dai family still retains some traditions from the old days, or it has been passed down from generation to generation by family members who have lived there for many years. Except for those who have left, most of them still stay here.

After all, for them, they have grown up with the Dai family for several generations, and their so-called relatives and friends are also related to the Dai family. Naturally, they cannot think of leaving.

What's more, the treatment given by the Dai family is good enough, and they have never been treated as outsiders.

When Shen You moved in, no one was living in the west courtyard, so Dai Luoshu told Mother Wu who was cleaning the house to buy a new bedding for Shen You.

In addition to the national highway connecting the west courtyard and the main courtyard, there is also a special side door in the west courtyard. It is very considerate of the guests, for fear that the guests will go out late and find it troublesome to knock on the door.

After packing everything up, Dai Luoshu said goodbye. Wen Ci hesitated and wanted to speak a few times but was embarrassed. Dai Luoshu pretended not to notice and deliberately walked a few steps quickly, while Shen You looked at Wen Ci. Ci's hand squeezed gently, as if to indicate that everything was at ease.

In the evening, Wu's mother delivered the meal to Shen You's room, saying that it was deliberately arranged by Dai Luoshu. Shen You was not polite, but he and Wu's mother chatted wordlessly. The simple and honest mother Wu even reminded him of Residents of the small island far east of Yanhai City.

In life, there are always some people who appear to warm you at different moments.

The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, even though there was a cold wind blowing on his face, after having a good rest, Shen You came to Shichahai as promised by Shen Zhu.

Shen Zhu arrived a little earlier, and the two of them found a small pavilion in the park. Shen Zhu put down the plastic bag he was carrying, placed it on the stone table in the pavilion, and said to Shen You: "It's so cold. God, I asked you out and chose a quiet place to have a good chat in the dead of night. For this reason, I even deliberately bought some food that I think you might like to eat."

Following his words, peanuts, beef jerky, braised eggs and other food were taken out from the plastic bag. Then Shen Zhu took out two bottles of Xiaoerguotou, handed one to Shen You and said, "Here, Nuannuan body."

Shen You took it and recalled that in Quancheng, he took advantage of the Shen family's reputation and finally gave the uni bar that Su Qingqian worked hard to run to Shen Zhu. Now he is sitting here drinking like old friends. He can't help but feel sad. Shen You slightly lamented that things in the world are impermanent and fate plays tricks on people.

"Long time no see..." Shen Zhu spoke first.

When thinking about going to the appointment, Shen You had already considered this issue. It is estimated that Shen Zhu must have recognized him, otherwise he would not be so sure. He was already prepared in his heart, so he was not very surprised. He immediately replied with a smile: "Hello."

"Should I call you Shen You or You Shen?"

"What feels wrong?"

"The mask on your face should be from the health care industry, and we happen to have one at home. Although it can look real, and with the paint they specially provided, it can cover the blemishes around the eyes or the neck, but after all, it can still There are subtle differences, especially when I know there is such a mask and I am always observing you."

At this time, Shen You also remembered that Shen Zhu would always appear by his side whenever he appeared.

But Shen Zhu didn't seem to have finished speaking. He just paused for a moment and then continued: "Actually, you may not know that I have heard of the name You Shen as early as when I was in Quancheng..."

Shen You winced, remembering that he had misled Zeng Hu with this name, and now it sounded like Zeng Hu must have had contact with the young man in front of him.

"I'm not looking for you for any other reason. I just want to know who else is in your family."

Shen You was stunned after hearing this. He thought about countless possibilities, but he didn't expect that Shen Zhu would actually ask this. After thinking for a while, he then continued: "I lost my mother when I was born. I have a father who is a fisherman. Eight When he was 20 years old, he went to sea and never came back."

Without figuring out the whole story, Shen You would naturally not tell Shen Zhu everything about himself. Who knows what lies behind the matter?

Obviously, Shen Zhu was slightly disappointed after hearing this. He picked up the Erguotou in his hand and touched it with Shen You. He raised his head and took a sip and then said: "You know why I invited you over, but I didn't mention anything about the pen or your personal identity." Something about that?”

"Why?"

"I came to Sijiu City because I received an invitation letter, telling me that a treasure to restore our family has appeared. As a descendant of the Shen family, I naturally will not let go of such an opportunity."

Shen You was shocked after hearing this. Obviously, the letter Shen Zhu received was different from the letter Long Sheng'er received. From this, it can be seen that no one can believe the coincidence of the appearance of this pen.

"But this is not the final reason why I came to Sijiu City. It can only be regarded as one reason at most. The main reason is because of you..."

"Me?" It was Shen You's turn to be surprised.

Shen Zhu nodded, and then said to Shen You: "Let me tell you a story. Although it is a bit cold tonight, fortunately, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, so it is a good weather for telling stories."

Shen You said nothing, but listened attentively as Shen Zhu began to tell a story that was almost lost to the world.

The story begins with a big family. The originally relatively prosperous big family was fighting openly and secretly with other equally prosperous families. Eventually, unscrupulous descendants appeared in the family. When the previous head of the family was seriously ill, he tried to use the power of another family to conspire to seize the position of head of the family. .

However, the person who was supposed to inherit the position of head of the family almost made a big mistake because he was newly married and had no interest in the family business.

When his brothers joined forces with other forces to conspire to usurp power over the family's finances, the original head of the family discovered that everything could not be solved by unwillingness to do anything.

Just like the emperor's throne in ancient times, sometimes others are willing to give it up, but the person who gets it will kill him in order to sit in this position with more peace of mind.

Fortunately, as a candidate for the head of the family, he naturally had a few tools. First, he arranged for his cronies to send away his wife and child who had just given birth, and then he began to deal with his brother who was almost going crazy.

When Tu Qiongdeng saw him, it was naturally a life and death situation. Not only did the frantic brother want to take the position of the head of the family, but he was also prepared to kill his own cousins. He also wanted to eradicate the roots and send people to hunt down and kill the people he had already sent out. Wife and children.

The people escorting his wife and children were his loyal subordinates for many years. In addition to his wife and children, he also specially brought a young child to prepare for the civet cat to change the prince in the critical moment.

Although they had evaded pursuit several times during the journey, and they had been careful all along, in the end, their pursuers still forced them into a desperate situation.

So, with the permission of the child's mother, they reluctantly abandoned the child and left him to fend for himself. Everything depended on luck, but the child they picked halfway was kidnapped. After all, at that time, there really had to be someone to cross paths with.

And in the context of their departure at that time, the white-eyed wolf who colluded with other families also had the absolute upper hand.

Everyone thought that if the child was handed over, he would definitely die, but the leader who was chasing them actually kept the child for some unknown reason, probably because he was planning to take it back to claim credit.

However, things are unpredictable. When the candidate for the head of the family, who was originally in absolute decline, was about to reach the end of his rope, several old guys in the family who had long been out of the world suddenly came forward and united to support him.

Although these people are not involved in worldly affairs, the power hidden within them is very strong. When they support them wholeheartedly, everything becomes different.

The white-eyed wolf who originally had an absolute advantage gave in immediately. After all, some family forces supported him because they thought he was powerful, and the family would naturally gain some benefits if they fell into his hands. When those old antiques came out, many people

After changing his views, the would-be family head who was originally at the end of his rope suddenly regained his disadvantage bit by bit.

It was so dramatic. When the child returned, he suddenly found that his biological father had gradually gained the upper hand, and the people who were chasing him were gradually defeated.

The people who were chasing them were not very loyal. Seeing the situation, they suddenly changed and sent the child and his mother back. Although everything is fate, the fate of some people does change because of this.

Seeing that as Erguotou finished drinking, Shen Zhu's story had also been told. Although Shen You had a slight guess at some clues, there was no way he could take the initiative to mention it. He just asked Shen Zhu slightly: "It's quite a tortuous story...

…”

"Then do you know why I came to you?"

"have no idea."

"Okay, actually the family where this happened happened to be the Shen family, and the current head of the Shen family's wife is named You. The two of them were very loving, so they named their newly born child Shen You. And even though later

The child was found, but his nominal mother no longer called him by that name. Because she naturally liked Qingzhu, she named the child Shen Bamboo."

"You don't think I'm that Shen You, do you?" Although his heart was already filled with turmoil, Shen You still kept his face calm and asked Shen Zhu with a smile.

I only learned about this story when I returned from Quancheng. The person who accompanied me to Quancheng for business at that time was exactly the same person who escorted the orphan and widowed mother back then, so we made today's appointment.

"Is it important?"
