Chapter 237

He Sheng rushed back first, and He Dashuan decided to call off work early today, so he stayed to collect the first and last, and then rushed home.

When He Sheng came home in a hurry, Zhang Xihua had already given Xu Huai a pile of boiled tender peanuts, and a plate of pears he picked from the tree was also placed on the table.

She didn't rush to ask about the situation, but waited until her husband came back to hear how it was.

There is no need to be polite between the two friends. Facing He Sheng's expectant eyes, Xu Huai pondered for a while and sighed: "Ah Sheng, this matter is more complicated, you have to be mentally prepared."

He Sheng was shocked all over, he tried his best to restrain his emotions, and said in a calm tone: "Brother Xu Huai, please be frank."

Xu Huai saw that the mood of the two of them was relatively calm, so he said directly: "My friend in Yizhou wrote and said that he can only confirm that he was transferred to Taiping Prefecture. Now Taipingzhou is suffering from floods that have not been seen in decades. , he has no way to inquire about the situation. Therefore, there is no way to determine what is A Cong's current situation."

Taiping Prefecture and Yizhou are not under the jurisdiction of the same state capital. Although the two states are adjacent, they are far apart. Taiping Prefecture belongs to the southernmost part of the imperial court. Heti caused a large area of ​​land along the downstream to be affected.

Many main roads for traffic between the two states have been blocked for a long time, and any news will have to wait for the roads to be restored before they can be heard.

When He Sheng and Zhang Xihua learned the whole story, they felt very heavy.

Xu Huai sighed, and said: "A Cong was forced to sell to Taiping Prefecture for mining eight years ago. There is no way to know the current situation of that mining area. If you really want to find out the news, you can only go to Yizhou and then transfer to Changping County. Pass through the mountain road."

This road is very difficult. It is not easy for others to help you find out the news. How can you let others continue to spend manpower and financial resources to find it?

Xu Huai did not say the rest, but both He Sheng and Zhang Xihua understood.

After He Cong was transferred by the buyer to the dental firm, the dental firm saw that he was handsome and well-versed in literature, so he wanted to sell him to Nanfeng Pavilion as a servant.Of course He Cong refused to follow when he learned about it, but the other party watched closely and was unable to escape, so He Cong had to scratch his face.Yaxing saw the serious disfigurement and was so angry that he jumped up and sold him to the hardest and most tiring place where he might never be able to leave the mountain as a coolie in the Taipingzhou mining area.

What happened above, after Xu Huai finished speaking, He Sheng solemnly begged Xu Huai not to mention it in front of his parents.

He was afraid that his parents would not be able to bear it.

Xu Huai understood very well and nodded immediately.

The atmosphere was very dull for a while, Xu Huai hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "Ah Sheng, there is no need to talk about the relationship between our two brothers. If you are willing to listen to my persuasion, let this matter go, don't continue to search, the time interval It’s been too long and I probably won’t find it.”

If you don't look for it, leave a thought for yourself.After all, no news is good news.

He Sheng bowed his head and remained silent, Zhang Xihua remained silent, she couldn't answer for her husband, besides, it depends on the attitude of her in-laws.

The conditions in the mining area are difficult, and there are many people who are exhausted and injured all the year round. Those who are willing to do this work are mostly poor local people who want to eat a bite, or criminals or criminal officials who have been convicted by the court for committing crimes.

People like A Cong who have no freedom are treated similarly to criminals. Even if the foreman does not deliberately make things difficult, he will arrange the hardest and most tiring work, and the food he eats on weekdays will not be much better.Even Xu Huai didn't dare to think about the actual situation of He Cong.

After a while, He Sheng bowed heavily to Xu Huai and said, "Thank you brother Xu Huai for your help. I am really grateful. If you want to find it or not, you have to discuss it with your parents."

Xu Huai said: "That's all! Help others to the end. I will send a batch of goods to Yizhou in half a month. If you insist on looking for them, you can go with my goods. It is safer to walk with people on the road."
