In the prison.
Cao Hua's hands and feet were covered with shackles. He looked up at the only window through which a faint light came.
Just now, he had a dream that he successfully assassinated General Cao.
General Cao's body was hung on the city gate. The army lost its commander and was in disarray. His Hun army attacked Qinzhou City and killed many people.
The people he knew, who were familiar with him and who were like brothers to him, died one by one at the hands of the Huns.
The Hun army won, but he did not feel that the battle was accomplished.
On the contrary, his heart ached as he looked at General Cao's corpse hanging on the city gate.
This man brought him out of the ice cave and raised him for ten years, just like his own father.
But he killed him.
What on earth did he do?
There are also Cao Ji, Cao Lu...
They all turned into cold corpses, even though they were happily arm wrestling together the day before.
Cao Hua woke up from the dream in a sweat, full of fear, and his first reaction was that he was lucky.
Fortunately it was a dream.
Fortunately, I didn't really kill General Cao.
General Cao, Cao Ji, Cao Lu... they are all still alive, that's great.
"In this life, I was born in the Xiongnu, so I can't be your father, son, or brother. I hope that in my next life, I can be your son or brother, if you don't despise me..."
Cao Hua muttered softly, suddenly raised the shackles and smashed them against his forehead!
The news that Cao Hua committed suicide in prison soon reached Cao Shao's ears.
At that time, the military doctor was changing Cao Shao's dressing, and he could clearly feel that Cao Shao's body stiffened for a moment.
The general must be sad, he thought.
After all, he is a child raised since childhood.
Cao Shao was silent for a while, then said only one sentence: "Give him a proper burial."
…
These two days, Shopkeeper Hua has been in a very low mood.
Tangli saw it all.
"Miss Tang, please persuade our boss." said the waiter.
His boss has always been carefree, and it's rare to see him like this. It makes him uncomfortable watching him.
Tang Li and Wei Qing were taken to the military camp by officers and soldiers yesterday. When they came back, they saw Manager Hua stretching his head and looking at them with a worried look on his face. He was relieved to see them come back.
Shopkeeper Hua was really worried about her.
Tangli has always been sincere to those who treat her sincerely.
She also didn't want to see Shopkeeper Hua so depressed.
But the problem is that Tangli is really not good at this kind of emotional relief.
Under the expectant gaze of his servants, Tang Li had no choice but to go ahead.
"Sister Hua, you like that child so much." Tang Li said.
Shopkeeper Hua twisted the handkerchief in his hand and said, "Actually, I'm worried about him. I don't know where he's been, whether his injuries have healed, and whether he's had enough to eat..."
Tang Li felt that there was something wrong with Manager Hua’s attitude. It wasn’t like he was treating his lover, but rather like he was treating his own child.
"That child is very lucky and will definitely be fine. Who knows, he might suddenly appear in front of you handsomely one day!" Tang Li said.
Shopkeeper Hua imagined the scene and laughed, "You're the only one who can make me happy."
Shopkeeper Hua looked up at Tangli. Her little face was wrinkled, and she looked so adorable as she racked her brains to coax herself.
"Actually, when I looked at him, I thought of my brother," said Shopkeeper Hua.
"younger brother?"
"Yes, I fled to Qinzhou City. I fled with my brother. On the way, I fell ill. My brother said he would find medicine for me, and then he never came back. I often think, if I had held my brother back then and not let him go out..." This is a knot in her heart.
"My brother, if he's safe and sound, is about the same age as that child."
Tang Li originally thought that Shopkeeper Hua was nice to the young man just because he was handsome, but he didn't expect that there was another reason behind it.
Tang Li didn't know what to say and could only pat her back gently.
Shopkeeper Hua forced a smile on his face.
"I was kind to that young man because I thought that if anyone came across my injured brother, they would be able to find a doctor for him and save his life."
"Yes."
"Tangtang, you must cherish the person in front of you."
Tang Li was touched, and subconsciously glanced at Wei Qing, then nodded.
"Tangli, Wei Qing, come out!"
Suddenly, a rough shout came from outside, accompanied by the sound of footsteps.
It can be seen that the force is fierce.
Shopkeeper Hua stood up suddenly and walked towards the door gracefully.
"Who is looking for my little Tangtang~"
The man walked too fast and couldn't stop in time, and actually bumped into the shopkeeper Hua.
The man who came was like a bear. Shopkeeper Hua was petite and was about to fly away after being hit.
The man quickly put his arms around Shopkeeper Hua's waist and pulled him close to him, and the two of them pressed tightly together.
Cao Ji was stunned. This soft...
Cao Ji couldn't help but look down. The skin of the woman in his arms was dazzlingly white, and there were two faint traces of blood on her chest...
Cao Ji's face suddenly turned red.
Bang!
"You hooligan!" Shopkeeper Hua slapped him hard in the face.
Cao Ji finally reacted and quickly withdrew his hand, not knowing where to put it.
Shopkeeper Hua was furious and started punching and kicking Cao Ji.
Cao Ji was like a poor sandbag, allowing her to hit him.
You know, this is the bravest warrior in the army, who can fight against a hundred people alone, but now he is huddled together, looking pitiful.
Wei Qing and Tang Li did not stop them, and they watched the show with a mischievous look.
After Shopkeeper Hua was out of breath from kicking, he withdrew his legs and stopped kicking.
"Who are you?" Shopkeeper Hua glared at him.
"My name is Cao Ji. I'm eighteen years old. I have no parents, only one elder, and I own a house in Shangjing..."
Shopkeeper Hua rolled his eyes: "Who asked you so many questions?"
Cao Ji immediately shut up: "Oh."
"What are you doing here?"
"I'm looking for Wei Qing and Tang Li..."
"What are you trying to do by yelling at them so harshly?" Shopkeeper Hua looked at him warily, like an old hen protecting her calves.
Cao Ji lowered his head shyly: "I was a little impatient just now, I wanted to buy them a drink."
Only then did Manager Hua let him go.
Tang Li and Wei Qing agreed.
"Girl, do you want to join us?" Cao Ji said with a red face.
"No, I'm watching the store."
Cao Ji was a little disappointed.
"Sister Hua, this guy is so fierce, you go and protect us." Tang Li said.
Shopkeeper Hua finally relented: "Okay."
Cao Ji looks at Tangli now and finds her so cute.
I used to think she was ignorant and naive, but now I see that she is so sensible.
Cao Ji invited them to a large restaurant nearby.
During this time, Cao Ji secretly looked at the shopkeeper Hua, and then quickly looked away, looking like a young boy who had just fallen in love.
His heart was pounding, and he felt happy just looking at her.
Tang Li and Wei Qing came here just to eat, so they didn't hesitate to eat and ate heartily.
After the meal, Cao Ji sent Manager Hua back to the inn, showing his utmost courtesy.
