Chapter 355: Your lives are worthless
Song Tingchen paused.
General Song?
"Do you know Xiaoxiao?"
He frowned unconsciously, and a bad premonition suddenly arose in his heart.
He used to lead troops in battles.
I always thought Song Xiao was a very well-behaved child.
It's just that Su Tan insisted on using those rules to suppress Song Xiao, making such a good child feel a little depressed.
Later, Song Xiao was taken care of by Old Madam Song and Song Tingchen, so the time he spent with him was not long.
Most of the time, he behaved very well in front of Song Tingchen.
So Song Tingchen always felt that the bad relationship between Song Xiao and Su Tan was because Su Tan was too strict with the child, which made the child not close to her.
In addition, she has an extreme temperament.
Most children don't like adults with extreme tempers.
Song Tingchen has always thought so.
Until later.
He slowly discovered the differences between Song Xiao and other children.
When he heard the two old men talking about Song Xiao, he subconsciously thought, maybe the child had caused trouble outside again?
But Song Xiao is his own child after all.
When he heard others mention Song Xiao, he subconsciously felt that the child had caused him trouble and it was not good after all.
But sometimes the people who understand a child best are his or her parents.
Even if Song Tingchen didn't want to think badly of Song Xiao, his subconscious had already betrayed him.
Also betrayed Song Xiao.
The old man driving the ox cart was reluctant to say more. He was silent for a while, then laughed and said, "Nothing much. I don't really know him."
"I've only heard of General Song's name."
Song Tingchen frowned even more.
Song Xiao has never been to the battlefield.
Others called him General Song, but that was just a teasing towards a child.
Song Tingchen was a general, and people always thought that Song Xiao would inherit his father's career, so they jokingly called him Little General Song.
After all, he was not a famous general, and it was impossible for him to be famous so far that even those old men living in the wilderness knew him.
Song Tingchen had a bad feeling in his heart, and he couldn't help asking, "But what did Xiaoxiao do?"
If you ask which Song Xiao has the greatest reputation - Song Tingchen lowered his eyes slightly, a trace of embarrassment flashing across his brows.
The little ungrateful guy has the greatest reputation.
In the past, Song Tingchen always felt that the world was too harsh on a child. How could a child distinguish between right and wrong, let alone a child abandoned by Su Tanxian?
But now - the old man driving the ox cart still smiled at Song Tingchen.
"No, no."
"We have only heard of General Song's name."
"For a moment, I was a little surprised to learn that you were General Song's father."
The old man driving the ox cart seemed unwilling to cause any conflict, so he kept smiling while speaking, kept his mouth shut, and knew nothing about anything.
However, the old man who had taken in Song Tingchen before snorted coldly.
"It's nothing, it's just that General Song is very powerful and never takes human life seriously. He said that even if a lowly person like us died in his hands, it would only be a matter of ten or twenty taels of silver."
The old man driving the ox cart glanced at him and coughed twice. "Old Liu, what are you talking about?"
Old Liu snorted, "Why don't you tell me the truth? I feel unlucky for saving the father of such a playboy!"
"If I wasn't afraid that if I left him here and he ran into some kind of ghost wall or something, and if he died, we would be committing a sin, then I wouldn't want to take care of him."
Song Tingchen's expression changed.
But it was not because these two old men disliked him.
It was because the Song Xiao they were talking about turned out to be a playboy.
Don’t take human life seriously!
Song Tingchen's expression suddenly became tense.
He immediately said to Old Liu, "I am grateful for Uncle Liu's life-saving grace. I will always remember it in my heart and have no way to repay him. I used to think Xiaoxiao was just an ignorant child who made a lot of noise, but I didn't know..."
Before Song Tingchen could finish his words, he was interrupted by Liu Bo.
"Oh!"
"He is indeed an ignorant child. Only rich people like you can pamper him like this. If we had such an evil creature in our family, we would have beaten him to death long ago."
The more Liu Bo thought about it, the angrier he became.
What made him even more angry was that he used to think that the children of these wealthy families were all good.
Even if there are some people who live a life of luxury and extravagance, and ruin the reputation of their family, it is because they have lived too much of a wealthy life, and their ancestors have never suffered from poverty, so they teach their children to be somewhat spoiled and extravagant.
But the Song family is definitely different.
General Song also came from a poor family, but was named General Zhenbei by the emperor because of his outstanding military achievements.
Such a family will definitely teach their children well.
At first, Liu Bo really thought so.
He always had a deep affection for Song Tingchen, who came from a poor background but was favored by the emperor with his own abilities. He subconsciously felt that Song Tingchen's child, Song Xiao, would definitely become a great general in the future.
Who knew that such an unlucky thing would happen one day?
…
As the New Year was coming to an end, Uncle Liu and his old friend Lao Huang wanted to go to the city to buy some New Year's goods.
As the year draws to a close, many people are buying New Year’s goods. They have to go early and come back early so that they can pick better ones.
This will also prevent you from encountering any obstacles on the way back because it is dark.
Who knew that when they were entering the city, a little kid rode his horse recklessly and almost bumped into Uncle Liu and Old Huang.
If they were not old but still nimble and able to dodge quickly, they would have been knocked over by the horse.
“Whoa—”
Song Xiao pulled the reins and slapped the horse's butt hard several times.
He dismounted and looked at Uncle Liu and Uncle Huang in front of him with displeasure.
Although he is still young, he is not thin and looks like he is only six years old, but he has already shown the outline of a dandy boy.
He strode towards Lao Liu and Lao Huang.
His brows were tightly furrowed, and his round face was twisted into a ball. He glared at the two of them.
"Can you two walk?"
"You nearly scared my horse!"
He was riding his horse here peacefully, and everyone else was keeping away, when these two people suddenly appeared.
It almost caused an accident.
Old Liu has a hot temper. Although he has restrained himself a bit as he is older, he was almost stepped on by a horse just now and was already frightened and angry.
He was so angry that he had no place to vent it, and seeing that the other person was just a child, he originally thought of just swallowing his anger.
Don't argue with children too much.
Who knew that Song Xiao would come up so recklessly?
Old Liu's anger was ignited in an instant.
"Whose child are you from? You are so ignorant!"
"It's you who's setting the pace here, isn't it? You almost caused trouble, and you still have the nerve to lie here with your eyes open?"
"What did your parents teach you?"
He looked at Song Xiao in front of him with a frown. He had been hunting outside for many years, and he actually had a bit of a murderous look on his face. When he looked at people with an expressionless face, it would really make people a little scared.
Song Xiao was actually a little scared, but when he saw that the other party was wearing coarse linen clothes and was old, he became a little arrogant for a moment, not to mention that the other party mentioned the word he least wanted to hear.
Song Xiao's voice immediately rose.
"You're the ones getting in the way. Why would I run towards you two when I'm good enough to run towards others? Just be thankful I didn't fall off my horse. Otherwise, even if I killed both of you, you wouldn't be able to afford the compensation!"
"Your lives are worthless!"
