Girlfriend's Fortune

Chapter 146 Chapter 140 Five: The Copper Bird
Zhang Yang was so happy that his younger sister made such a good marriage, and was afraid that something would happen, so he didn't bother about Zhang Laodou's urgent request for a dowry to make up for his money.

It's only about ten taels of silver, and he doesn't care about it now.

As soon as the Zhang family's banquet table was set up, the marriage between Zhou and Zhang's family was confirmed, and no one in the village knew about it.

Zhang Yang can also go about his own business with peace of mind.

Since Zhang Yang came back, he took over the job of going to town with Song Qiu.

On this day, he brought Song Qiu back from the town in a mule cart, and helped pull the tables and benches to the tea shed. After everything was settled, he returned to the village with his hands behind his back.

It's getting hotter and hotter in mid-July. It's only half of the morning, and the sun is scorching hot. No one likes to go out if they have nothing to do, let alone an old man like Mr. Tang.

Now, he can only walk around with a cane in the morning and evening.

Like this time, they are all sitting on the reclining chairs in their main room to rest.

Households in the village, under the blue sky and broad daylight, seldom have their courtyard doors closed. In addition, the wind in Songshan Village is good. As long as there is someone at home, the courtyard doors of this household are always open during the day.

It's convenient for any neighbor to come to visit. There is no need to call the door to wait for the door.

When Zhang Yang strode into the courtyard of the Tang family, the village chief's wife, daughter-in-law and granddaughter were all doing embroidery in the east room, and the village chief and his son Tang Mingde went out for a meal.

Tang Wen reads in his own room. Although he didn't go to school, he has learned a lot of characters from Mr. Tang's teaching Qi Meng since he was a child. Reading books by himself can also increase his knowledge.

So, everyone was busy, Zhang Yang entered the courtyard, and no one yelled, and no one listened, Zhang Yang entered the main room all the way.

Mr. Tang, who was leaning on the recliner, was not asleep, and he was facing the courtyard door. He saw Zhang Yang as soon as he came in.

Seeing people coming straight to the main room, he scolded with a smile, "You boy, it's been quite a while since you came back."

This means that he has come back a lot recently.

Like before, when did you not see him once every six months, three to five months?

Zhang Yang grinned, called out to Mr. Tai, moved a small bench aside, and sat directly next to the recliner.

"Tell me, what do you want from me?" Mr. Tang said with an expression that I knew you must have something to do.

Zhang Yang pondered in his heart, paused, looked at Mr. Tang without blinking, and said, "Grandpa, I want to ask you, what is the relationship between the things buried in the iron pine forest and our village?"

Mr. Tang's brows darkened. He looked at Zhang Yang carefully, but he didn't answer. Instead, he asked him, "Zhang Yang, tell your grandpa what are you doing outside? You're always a bastard in the town. It's not like your temper."

Zhang Yang listened, thinking that the grandpa was indeed the one who had eaten six to 70 years more than him, and his mind was turning faster than him.

In his heart he respected the grandpa very much. I heard that back then, at his age, he walked over without enough to eat and saw corpses strewn all over the place. .

This matter is related to the whole village. He believes that the grandpa will not harm any villager, and he is certainly telling the truth. He also believes that the village temple does have a reason for its existence.

And being stared at by such a pair of wise eyes that have experienced vicissitudes, he can't tell a lie.

"Does Grandpa know Changshan King?"

Mr. Tang smiled when he heard the words, "King Chang Shan? Of course you know. Fifty years ago, our ancestors suffered a catastrophe, and King Chang Shan happened to be born. Therefore, there were rumors among the victims that King Chang Shan was born as a disaster star." , That’s why we have such a catastrophe, homeless people, sons to eat, dead bodies all over the fields, and people living in dire straits.”

"In order to eliminate rumors in the world, the first emperor resorted to thunderous means, dispatched capable people to quickly relieve the disaster, and gave an excellent disaster relief policy. Otherwise, how could the catastrophe of that year be resolved so quickly? ? Designate that more people will die."

"It's just that although the disaster has been settled, there will still be rumors that King Changshan is the disaster star for many years."

"Until the Japanese bandits invaded more than [-] years ago, they came fiercely, lost their lives, and suffered countless casualties. Finally, King Changshan went to the battlefield wearing armor and armor, and defeated the Japanese bandits. After this battle, no one will say that King Chang Shan is a calamity, but everyone will say that King Chang Shan is a world-wide hero, praised and admired countless times."

"What does the grandpa think? Is he a hero? But a good man worth following?" Zhang Yang asked him after listening.

Old Master Tang looked at him and said: "Now he is the most proud prince of the late emperor. Since he was young, he has been generous and benevolent, kind and humble, and smart and studious. Mingjun is."

Zhang Yang couldn't help frowning when he heard that this was true and false, "Did Grandpa think that King Changshan will rebel?"

There are no outsiders here, so you don't need to be too considerate when talking.

Mr. Tang laughed softly, shook his head and said, "No, Grandpa just thinks that the world is quite peaceful now, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the emperor is dedicated to the people, so I don't want any trouble. It's just a matter of being in a state of flux and wandering in fear."

Zhang Yang listened, and instantly understood what Mr. Tang meant.

He didn't care about Chang Shanwang's behavior, but he felt that the matter of the bronze bird should not leak out.

Is the secret behind this so-called copper bird heavy enough to cause chaos in the world?
Zhang Yang's heart was in a mess, and he felt a little tricky.

What is the point of that copper bird?
This kind of knowing, but only a half-knowledge, is really uncomfortable, and it's not up or down.

After thinking for a moment, he still couldn't help but confess his heart to Mr. Tang.

"Grandpa, to be honest, I'm working with Hong Wuye in the town now, and Hong Wuye is the son of Prince Changshan."

Mr. Tang looked over, listening to Zhang Yang seriously.

"Not long ago, Hong Wuye sent someone to steal a copper bird from the residence of King Yan in Baishui Town. After being discovered, he chased and killed him repeatedly, and fled into Songshan in a hurry. In the end, they all died in Songshan. King Yan didn't find the bronze bird either, so it should be hidden somewhere in Songshan Mountain."

"That's why Fifth Master sent me back to search secretly, because I am from Songshan Village, so I can also deceive people."

Mr. Tang listened, raised his eyebrows, and didn't ask Changshan Wang Shizi, nor Yan Wang, but asked: "So last time you were looking for things in the mountains of Songshan Village, and finally dug up the iron pine forest buried by chance. something?"

Zhang Yang opened his mouth, finally turned around and nodded: "Yes."

He still didn't tell the truth, saying that they actually found the copper bird, and it was because of this copper bird that they found the four copper birds.

I want to hear what Mr. Tang will say.

When Mr. Tang heard this, he nodded his head. He didn't know what he was thinking, and finally asked, "Then you came back this time because you were looking for this copper bird?"
