Cannon Fodder Revenge

"The shopkeeper, have you been discovered?"

Uncle Wang stretched out his hand and made a gesture while asking cautiously.

Shopkeeper Zhang hurriedly shook his head with horror in his eyes, "That's not true. I hid it so well that Fu Lang didn't find out."

"Then why are you bothered?"

Since it wasn't the private money that was discovered, Uncle Wang couldn't think of any other reason.

Shopkeeper Zhang took out a beautiful feather from his bosom with a bitter face, "Isn't this, my sweetheart is gone!"

Shopkeeper Zhang’s heart is a bird, a bird with gorgeous feathers and can speak like a human. I heard that it was a big gift from his friend in the capital. He has been raising it for three or four years. I have no children, so I love this bird even more.

"Why is it missing? Doesn't it have a room with two servants around it?" Uncle Wang was surprised.

"No," shopkeeper Zhang's eyes turned red as he spoke, "I took it to the hall for dinner this morning, but only the big cage and this feather remained."

As he spoke, he shook the feather in front of Uncle Wang, "The windows are closed every day, and the two servants also interrogated them. They said they heard crows calling last night, but they only called a few times, and nothing happened." Go in and have a look, Old Wang, do you think my Baoer was kidnapped by those ugly crows!"

The corner of Uncle Wang's mouth twitched: "...Isn't that so, the crow has such a great ability?"

"Yes," shopkeeper Zhang slammed the wooden table, "My husband is sick because of Bao'er's disappearance. Can I not get angry! If anyone can find my Bao'er, I will give him a few dollars." Twelve bounties!"

Uncle Wang's heart moved, but he was a little hesitant. After all, finding a bird is a bit mysterious, so he could only comfort him dryly, "Bao'er is so smart, maybe he just went out for a stroll, you can wait two days to see." Look, what if it comes back by itself?"

After coming down from the downstairs, Uncle Wang asked his little apprentice to sort out yesterday's account first, and then he came to "Bao inquire."

"Looking for a bird?"

Liu Hanwen raised his head.

Uncle Wang raised his hand and stroked his beard, "Yes, that kind of bird is called a parrot..."

"There are more than 100 species of parrots. Most of them have bright feathers, love to sing, and are good at learning human language. Their staple food is nuts, berries, young shoots, twigs and nectar."

Before Liu Hanwen waited for Uncle Wang to finish speaking, he revealed the characteristics of this bird, and after he finished speaking, he himself was taken aback.

"Brother Wen, you are amazing, this kind of bird knows it."

Lin Yuan really admired him more and more.

Liu Hanwen frowned, "I just heard my uncle mention a name, so I just said it."

But Uncle Wang praised, "It seems that the miscellaneous books you usually read are also useful. If you read too much, you will naturally have more things in your mind, and you can tell the following when others mention it."

Is that right?

Liu Hanwen was still a little puzzled, he didn't remember that he had read such miscellaneous books...

"It's not easy to find a bird, so I didn't mention you to the shopkeeper," Uncle Wang thought thoughtfully.

"I can find it, but it only costs ten taels of silver," Liu Hanwen said with a smile while holding his small abacus.

"As long as I can find it, shopkeeper Zhang is willing to pay 20 taels of silver," Uncle Wang laughed, "Then I'll go back and tell him."

"Uncle, go slowly," Liu Hanwen got up to see him off.

The black magpie flew from the table to his shoulder, "That bird is very noisy, the bird has seen it several times."

Liu Hanwen walked towards the backyard, avoiding Lin Yuan and Mu Hancai, "When was the last time you saw it?"

"Just yesterday morning, the bird saw it when shopkeeper Zhang took it out for a walk," Hei Que replied.

At this moment, the old tit landed on a branch in the yard, "The bird just discovered something interesting, Brother Wen, listen to it?"

It should have just returned from foraging, with some water still on its body.

Liu Hanwen always knew the temperament of the old tit, so he smiled, "Since it's an interesting story, of course I'd like to hear it."

The old tit laughed strangely, and started to say, "The bird found two crows in the western suburbs, tsk, they don't know where they got some feathers and are / inserting / on themselves. Those feathers are very beautiful, and they are very similar to humans. It looks like their own clothes, and while inserting/talking, humans will not know that they are crows, Jiujiujiu is really a laughing bird."

"Where is it plugged in?" Black Magpie also kept laughing strangely.

The old chickadee fluttered up and flew around several times before landing, "On the tail, the bird's head is so obvious, even if their buttocks change color, humans can still tell that they are crows."

The black magpie jumped up and down with laughter, and Liu Hanwen couldn't help shaking his head, "So the crow is so cute."

Speaking of this old tit, I have to justify the name of the crow, "The bird tells you, in fact, the crow is the most stupid bird in the whole bird, but they are all black and have bad voices, so humans give them Fate is bad luck and bad luck, but they are actually very good."

The black magpie also nodded, "The crow is the least warlike bird."

"So that's how it is," Liu Hanwen felt that he had learned a lot, "By the way, the parrot Bao'er from the shopkeeper Zhang's house in the restaurant is missing, so it's up to you, the old tit."

"Parrot?" The old tit turned his head, "I said why the feathers on the two crows look so familiar. Brother Wen, don't worry, I'll get Bao'er right away!"

After speaking, he flew into the sky, and the black magpie also touched Liu Hanwen's face and flew away.

Only then did Mu Han realize that Liu Hanwen's mood was a bit depressed. It happened that Lin Yuan and Liu Wang were out. They were the only two of them in the shop. At this time, they were able to have a few words, so he asked softly, "Seeing that you are out of your mind, why not?" gone?"

Liu Hanwen hugged his teacup in a daze, "I find that sometimes some strange names or faces always appear in my mind, and even when I dream, I dream that I live in a very prosperous place, and there are many people around me serving me. "

Mu Han was taken aback for a moment, and then comforted him after a long while, "Maybe he dreamed about your future."

Liu Hanwen chuckled, and looked at Mu Hancai, "Does Brother Mu also believe in this dream?"

Mu Han stared at the brother in front of him and suddenly remembered the dream he had before. In the dream, Wen brother pulled himself to call him husband... His ears turned red, and he coughed heavily, "The ancients said, there is something new every day." Thinking, dreaming at night."

Liu Hanwen nodded, "Maybe it's for this reason, it seems that I really want to be a nobleman."

Otherwise, how could I dream that I had such a good life.

After figuring it out, Liu Hanwen didn't bother to dig into the corner anymore. It just so happened that someone came to buy groceries at this moment, and he got up to greet the guests, while Mu Hancai secretly picked up the teacup he had put down, and strode to the backyard.

As soon as the guests left, Liu Hanwen couldn't find it when he was looking for tea, "Hey, where's my tea?"

Just as Mu Han came out with the freshly brewed tea, he heard this sentence, "I made you another cup."

Liu Hanwen took the tea and thanked him. Seeing that he was fine, he asked about Mu Hancai's past, "I heard from my parents that Brother Mu saved me the last time I fell into the water, otherwise I would have died a long time ago."

"Nonsense, you are a precious person, and these small disasters will not trouble you." Mu Han frowned.

Liu Hanwen glanced at his serious face, "I heard from people in the village that you are very good at martial arts, why did you become a hunter in the countryside?"

Mu Han paused, "Licking the edge of the knife all day long outside, what I want most is to live a peaceful life, and then I left when I had the opportunity. Besides, the life in the village is not bad, the villagers are simple and honest. Kindness, and... I think it's worth it."

When he said the last sentence, he glanced at Liu Hanwen.

Liu Hanwen happened to meet the other party's gaze, and his heartbeat suddenly became faster when he was stared at like this, and the atmosphere became strange.

"I thought the village head's daughter-in-law's boast was true, but I didn't expect it to be such a piece of material!"

Liu Wang's voice broke all of this, Liu Hanwen got up and went out directly, "Who are you talking about?"

Mu Hancai looked at his back, his eyes deepened.

Lin Yuan stepped forward and said, "It's Wang Chunhe from the village head's family. Didn't he find a job in the town before? I heard that it costs two yuan a month. Who in the village doesn't praise him? Even Wang Chunli opened his mouth and kept his mouth shut." It's all this third brother."

"What's up with him?"

Mrs. Liu put the vegetable basket in the side room and came back, "Brother Yuan and I just saw him being kicked out by the people from the casino, saying that he wanted to repay the debt after losing money, tsk tsk, that bruised nose and swollen face is scary to look at."

"Gambling ghosts are the most annoying," Lin Yuan said with disgust in his eyes.

"I hope that Wang Xiaoya won't be sold out by this bastard." After sighing, Liu Wang entered the backyard.

Liu Hanwen thought of Wang Chunli and Wang Xiaoya who were by her side when he met in the back mountain that day, "I remember you said that the days of Wang Chunhe and Wang Xiaoya will be in these few days?"

Lin Yuan nodded, "Yes, but looking at Wang Chunhe's appearance, it will definitely not get better on the wedding day, and the village chief's house will definitely make people laugh."

But Mu Han, who hadn't spoken for a long time, interrupted, "It won't work."

Both Liu Hanwen turned to look at him at the same time, with doubts on their faces.

Mu Han slightly curled his lips, "Wang Xiaoya ran away and stole two taels of silver from the village chief."

Lin Yuan hurriedly asked, "She is not afraid of being chased and taken back. If the village chief and the others report to the police, she will be finished."

Mu Hancai shook his head, "The village chief and the others dare not report to the officials, because Wang Xiaoya was not adopted by them, but bought from Paihuazi."

There is no deed to sell flowers and sell people. They dare not report to the officials if such people run away. Once they report to the officials, their private buying of children will be exposed, and Village Chief Wang will have to step down.

"How do you know?" Liu Hanwen stared at him and asked.

"Because Wang Xiaoya was let go by me," Mu Han didn't shy away from it at all.

Lin Yuan hurried to close the shop door, "Brother Mu, you are too courageous."

"How many days have you been away?" Liu Hanwen signaled Lin Yuan to open the door of the shop, and still had to do business.

"Two days, I've left the county now," Mu Han explained before finishing, "I don't have any selfishness towards her, can you trust me?"

Liu Hanwen looked at him for a while and then looked away, "Do I believe you are important?"

Mu Han stood up and looked at him, "It's very important."

Lin Yuan blinked, and finally left quietly.

"why?"

Just as Mu Han was about to speak, he was interrupted by a bird chirping.

The old tit and black magpie are back.

"Brother Wen, those two crows are already in the backyard, and Bao'er is also there, but they don't look very good."

After talking about the old tit, I still didn't forget to smile.

Hearing that there was something serious to do, Liu Hanwen's face straightened, and he said to Mu Han, "Look at the shop, I'll go to the backyard to have a look."

Mu Hancai was staring at the old tit with a dark face, and nodded quickly after hearing this.

The little crow dejectedly stood next to the big crow who was also panicked, "What should we do, boss, we took the feather of the little brother's bird."

Now it's even less welcoming.

The big crow secretly glanced at Bao'er, who was crying like a bird, "Stop barking, it's just a few hairs, they will grow out soon."

Bao'er, whose long hair was all caught, yelled fiercely at the two crows, "Bad bird! Bad bird!"

The two crows took a step back in unison, and just as they were about to apologize, they saw Liu Hanwen and the old chickadee approaching.

Liu Hanwen looked at the two crows with Bao'er's feathers on their bodies and smiled lightly, "You guys are really interesting, why do you want to pick up the feathers of other birds to decorate yourself?"

The old tit said the crow was stupid, but it wasn't too stupid.

The little crow stared blankly at Liu Hanwen who was smiling at them, and replied foolishly, "Because we also want to follow the little brother, and we don't want the little brother to hate us."

The big crow didn't look like a boss at all at the moment, and nodded foolishly as the younger brother said.

bird!So close to my little brother, the aura is so strong!

Inexplicably, hearing what the little crow said, Liu Hanwen felt a little sad. He stretched out his hand to touch the little crow's head, but another bird got there first, and at the same time made a strange human voice, "Bad bird!" ! They're bad birds! Bird feathers! Bird feathers!"

As he spoke, he rubbed Liu Hanwen's head vigorously.

Liu Hanwen looked at the aggrieved Bao'er, stretched out his hand to tidy up its feathers, and found that the most beautiful hairs were stuck on the two crows, no wonder it was so wronged.

"Boa?"

"The bird is here! The bird is here!" Bao'er fluttered her wings.

Really smart, no wonder the Zhang shopkeeper and his wife like it so much.

Liu Hanwen picked it up, "Do you miss your master after you've been out for so long?"

Bao'er raised her head, "I miss my master! I miss my master!" After speaking, he looked at the two crows, "Bad birds! Bad birds!"

The two crows hurriedly apologized.

"sorry."

"The birds were wrong."

Bao'er raised her head triumphantly, and after a while she looked at her own tail and cried out.

Hearing the sound of footsteps coming this way, Liu Hanwen waved his hands at the two crows, and the crows immediately flew to the roof to hide.

"I said there was a strange noise outside. It turned out to be a bird. Is this the parrot shopkeeper Zhang is looking for?"

Lin Yuan was still holding the vegetables in his hand, tilting his head to look at Bao'er who was being held by Liu Hanwen.

Bao'er rubbed Liu Hanwen's clothes vigorously, and ignored Lin Yuan at all. Lin Yuan was curious to see, "Why is this bird so clingy like a dog?"

Bao'er yelled at Lin Yuan, "Bad guy! Bad guy!"

Lin Yuan's eyes widened, "You really can speak human language! Third aunt, come and see! This bird can speak human language!"

Liu Wang didn't forget to ask Mu Han to come over after watching it. Mu Han regarded Liu Wang as his mother-in-law, so he was always there whenever he was called, so after being watched for a while, Liu Hanwen touched Bao'er head, and sent the bird to shopkeeper Zhang.

Seeing Bo'er's shopkeeper Zhang is so excited!Tears are real!

"Bao'er, why is your hair missing so much? Tell Dad, who did it!"

Bao'er yelled quickly, "Bad bird! Bad bird!"

Shopkeeper Zhang looked at Liu Hanwen, and Liu Hanwen explained, "A few hairs were taken away by crows."

Bao'er cooperatively spread her wings and wiped her eyes.

Because the wings could not be pulled over, and the bird's head was tilted to the side of the wings on its own initiative, this was the movement of crying sadly.

Shopkeeper Zhang suddenly remembered what the boys said, and he looked at Uncle Wang excitedly, "Look! I said that Bao'er was kidnapped by those crows, and you said that crows have no such skills!"

Uncle Wang looked blank, how did he know that the birds are so smart now.

"Where are those crows? I want to avenge my Bao'er!"

Shopkeeper Zhang said aggressively.

Liu Hanwen blinked at Bao'er, and Bao'er remembered the agreement of one person and one bird on the road, and hurriedly let out a bird call, "Wrong, they are wrong, no hatred!"

Fearing that shopkeeper Zhang didn't understand, Bao'er repeated it twice on purpose, which made shopkeeper Zhang feel distressed and relieved, "Look at my Bao'er, what a bird with a sense of righteousness! Next time those crows will come again!" If you dare to tie Bao'er, I will not be polite!"

After speaking, he thanked Liu Hanwen and asked the shopkeeper Zhang to take 20 taels of silver for Liu Hanwen.

"I think Bao'er likes you very much, so it's a predestined relationship." As soon as shopkeeper Zhang finished speaking, Bao'er flew onto Liu Hanwen's shoulder and shouted, "I like you! Bao'er likes you!"

"I will come to see you often," Liu Hanwen patted Bao'er's head, and went downstairs with 20 taels of silver, followed by Uncle Wang.

Liu Hanwen took out five taels of silver to Uncle Wang, "If it wasn't for your introduction, I wouldn't have gotten 20 taels, uncle, don't refuse."

After finishing speaking, he left without waiting for Uncle Wang to refuse.

Uncle Wang stood where he was, looked at Liu Hanwen's back and smiled, "This kid is too generous."

After speaking, he went to look for Liu Laosan and asked him to return the money to Liu Hanwen, but Liu Laosan flatly refused, "It's brother Wen who honors you and sister-in-law."

Unable to do anything, Uncle Wang had no choice but to accept it.

After returning home, when she handed over the money to Zuo Niang, she also explained the origin of the money, and Zuo Niang decided on the spot, "I'll buy some bolts of good cloth some other day to make some clothes for Brother Wen."

Uncle Wang nodded repeatedly when he heard the words, and when he was about to go out, he heard Zuo Niang say, "Stop, sir, do these shoes look familiar?"

As soon as Uncle Wang heard the word "shoes", he knew it was not good. When he turned around and looked at the shoes in Zuo Niang's hand, he immediately showed a smile, "My lady, this is not my husband's private money, it was put by shopkeeper Zhang at my place." Yes, and you know he's a strict husband."

Zuo Niang smiled, "Really? Then I have to get together with Zhang Fulang."

Uncle Wang sighed, "It's my private room, my lady just use it."

Zuo Niang just snorted and let him go.
