Chapter 57:

At the 17th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, he was forced to fill his stomach with sour soup early in the morning, and he stepped into the small living room of Qiu Ying's house, and his hiccups were sour.
She suspected that she would have a vinegar smell when she sweats today. Fortunately, although the sun is sky, the temperature is still low, and it is not hot enough to sweat.
Qiu Ying is different from yesterday. Seeing her here today, his eyebrows and eyes are full of closeness: "Abacus told me that we both grew up together. Seventeen, I am really happy to meet you!"
He came up to hug him. Bai Shiqi suspected that there was a sour smell on his body, he couldn't help but stepped back two steps, leaving him standing in place with his arms raised in embarrassment, with a look of loss: "Ten...Seventeen?"
They were originally two Xiaowu Guessing, and they almost became husband and wife, but at the moment they are very embarrassed. Bai Shiqili bitterly scolds Zhao Wujiu's heart and eye is smaller than the tip of a needle, but after saying a few bad things about him, he was retaliated against. Sour stomach soup: "I... I drank the hangover soup this morning, and my body smelled of vinegar. I'm afraid you will smell uncomfortable!"
Zhao Wujiu must have deliberately wanted to embarrass her!
The loss in Qiu Ying's eyes dissipated, and she became happy again: "Seventeen, I won't despise you!"
He came forward and grabbed Bai Shiqi’s hand and held it firmly: "After I woke up four years ago, I was covered with wounds and remembered nothing. The abacus said that my parents were both dead, and I always felt lonely and alone. Although I still don’t remember you, I feel close when I see you, and I feel happy."
Recalling the old days, Bai Shiqi gave a stern look at the abacus: "The brave boy, why don't you send you back to the Caogang?"
The abacus froze for a moment, and couldn't help but apologize: "It's a young man who I heard from the son before. If you want to be a scholar, you just think about it... Thinking about the Caobang, it must be impossible to study. It's better to take this opportunity. After the young man's wish... I will make my own decision!"
Bai Shiqi stared blankly at the young man in front of him, separating him from the young man in his memory. The young Qiu Ying is still alive in her heart, a shy child, but the young man in front of him looks like but a little strange. .
She always felt that something was wrong, and subconsciously reached out and touched her purse, a hard thing inside was touching her, and finally knew what was wrong, but her face was already irritated, and she cursed at the abacus: "Aying's matter When is it your turn to be the master? If it weren't for him to stand here and see if I don't cut your dog leg!"
She cursed and asked with concern: "It doesn't matter, right? Where did it hurt?"
Seeing her angry, Qiu Ying quickly laughed: "Don't scold him, he is stupid. I might have said casually before. He takes things that I don't even remember. We haven’t seen this in a few years. I knocked my head and hurt my left shoulder. I woke up after recuperating for a long time. Abacus must have been scared at the time."
Bai Shiqi was still angry: "It doesn't matter if you forgot the past, but the abacus hasn't forgotten." She sat down and asked sharply, "Let’s talk about it, what happened at the time?"
Qiu Ying also looked at Abacus with curiosity: "After you left yesterday, Abacus knelt down. He knelt all night last night. He said that he was also very scared at the time. I dragged the injured and unconscious into the reed swing and escaped. After a catastrophe, I don't know what's going on. You will examine this kid carefully and I will listen."
The two sat down together, with a high table in between, and he let go of Bai Shiqi's hand.
The abacus knelt on the ground, with his head hanging almost reaching the ground, he said intermittently, "...It was midnight, and someone touched the boat. The brothers in charge of the alert did not warn. There were many water bandits, more than ours. It’s been several times, and there are killings and killings everywhere. The boat is in chaos. I saw that the son was hit in the head by a water bandit and was unconscious. I took advantage of the chaos to be chopped and pushed into the water, quietly dragging the son from the water. I ran away in the water and swam into the nearby reeds. Later, after the water bandits ransacked the boat and left, I went to the doctor with my son on my back. He woke up after a fever and coma for four or five days, but the doctor said that it hit his brain and many things I forgot."
"Why don't you return to Cao to find me?"
The reason for the abacus is still very valid: "Young master, at that time... I saw Xiao Shi standing on the bow of the boat with a torch. He... he was standing in the same place with the leader of the water bandit and talking. It was obvious that he was a traitor, but the son later I don’t remember anything. If he gets bitten back and can’t even defend himself, he has the courage to secretly conceal the matter, find a place to settle the son, so that he will no longer wander in the muddy waters of the water gang. Just stay safe and secure!"
Xiao Shi is the eldest among the playmates of Bai Shiqi. His parents have long since passed away. She has always regarded herself as her elder brother. After the incident, she did not find his body in the waters.
"I haven't seen Xiao Shi in these years. Are you saying that he followed the water bandits into the grass?"
Abacus looked up blankly: "Are you saying that Xiao Shi didn't return to the Cao Gang?" He showed annoyance: "I knew Xiao Shi hadn't returned, so I took the son back to the Cao Gang. I thought he must have returned to the Cao Gang. I was afraid of him. I took a bite back, and I didn’t dare to take the son back all these years. As for...whatever the son said he wanted to be a scholar, it was all made up by me to coax the son, I was afraid that he...I was afraid that he would really go back to help..."
Bai Shiqi took a deep breath, seeming to accept the explanation of the abacus, but still remained angry, and said coldly: "You don't have to kneel, you can save Ah Ying's life. I have been taking care of him all these years. Up!"
Abacus: "It's all small ones should do." He lowered his head and quietly retreated.
Bai Shiqi turned his head to stare at Qiu Ying, his eyes filled with the joy of being lost. He stretched out his hand through Gao Ji: "Aying, do you know? Since that year thought you lost the hand of the water bandit, all these years Every year I go to avenge you by eliminating bandits along the river!"
Qiu Ying smiled bitterly: "Abacus, this stinky boy, I really treat myself as a scholar. I have been instigated by him to study hard over the years and almost went to the top pick." He clasped Bai Shiqi's hand: "Although I don't remember the past It's up, but seeing you is like seeing you somewhere. Seventeen, do you believe me?"
Bai Shiqi said: "Since childhood, you have kept everything from me, why would I not believe you?" She asked worriedly: "Does the injury matter back then? Can you show me?"
Qiu Ying quickly unfastened her belt and pulled down her clothes to show her the injury on her left shoulder.
Even though the wound had healed a long time ago, there was still a hideous scar left, and it was chopped down from the left shoulder to the back. The person who cut the knife was so powerful that he almost cut off half of his shoulder.
Bai Shiqi touched the hideous wound on his back: "At that time...it must be very serious, right?"
Qiu Ying smiled and said, "It's okay. That's... it's been a few years, and the left arm can't get enough strength. This arm may just be useless..." He lowered his head, and his voice contained a humble meaning: "Abacus said last night that the brothers who had injured their arms and legs by the Cao Gang, and those brothers who could no longer go on the boat, had a harder life, and were easy to be revenge by the old enemies. He was also afraid that the Cao Gang would no longer want me and be afraid of being Xiao Shi. I took a bite back and took me away. Seventeen, I don’t blame him anymore, don’t you blame him, okay?

This tone was the soft begging tone of the shy young man in the old days. Bai Shiqi was soft and not hard. It seemed that no matter how big he was begging, he was relieved, and he just snorted: "Yes. Just your kind heart."
Qiu Ying pursed her lips and said after she finished smiling: "Did you... also say that to me before?"
Bai Shiqi touched his head, and said angrily: "Otherwise?" Poke his back wound: "Is it cold and rainy, the wound is itchy?"
Qiu Ying probably got a little itchy by her, she couldn't help but twisted and leaned forward. Bai Shiqi's mischievous heart rose, and someone broke in. The first one was pushed in the wheelchair by Shu Changfeng. Zhao Wujiu, when he saw the shirtless man in the living room, his brows frowned: "What kind of body is naked in the sky?"
Bai Shiqi still hated the two bowls of sober soup he had poured. He only felt that his stomach was like a wine jar filled with half a bottle of wine. After a short walk of two steps, the liquid in his stomach would slosh and feel uncomfortable. What's the matter with breaking in for no reason?"
Zhao Wujiu was off to death.
