The female supporting role has arrived on the battlefield

Chapter 52 The Vicious Wife (23)

But Taifu Sun is such a foolish person?

Although he is not the kind of upright person who hates evil as much as his enemy, everyone is a smart person. Wei Zichen spoke up before the teahouse owner offended the other party, and even mentioned his identity, obviously wanting to use his identity to suppress the other party.

It just so happens that Wei Zichen is well-educated, and it is not easy to subdue him, so it would be great if he could make him owe himself a favor.

Anyway, Ding Zhu relied on his relationship with the county magistrate in the capital for many years, so he was not as diligent as before, and he allowed his son to dominate the capital.

The reason why he is able to live freely until now is because Ding Zhu's son Ding Teng still knows current affairs, even if he makes trouble and bullies others, he is only looking for those poor people who have no power and power.

When their own interests are not touched, no one in the DPRK will be the one who stands out and has nothing to do.

Only this time, it was obvious that the other party knocked down the iron plate.

Sun Taifu waved his hands, and his face was not angry and pretentious: "It is said that you love the people like a son, and the county magistrate is the parents and officials of the people, but you are relying on your status as a father to bully the people. I don't think you look like that. This is the first time I have done this. Today, the old man hereby promises to all the people that if there are people in Beijing who have been bullied by this person, they can send the pleading paper to the Taifu's residence within three days. The Taifu will report the matter to the emperor. "

For a while, when the people around the teahouse heard this, they couldn't help but praise Mrs. Sun, and many of them who had been bullied by Ding Teng secretly thought about finding someone to write the pleadings later.

Anyway, no matter how big the county magistrate is, can he still surpass the emperor's teacher?
Ding Teng kept begging for mercy, but of course Mrs. Sun couldn't take back what he said, not to mention there were many people watching outside the door, no one would be so stupid to damage his reputation.

In the end, Ding Teng left in despair, while Wei Zichen respectfully greeted Sun Taifu and went upstairs to drink tea. After sending Sun Taifu away, Father Ji went up to thank Wei Zichen: "Thanks to you today, I have had some good things recently." Tea, you can take it home to drink, and Mrs. Sun also thank you for your trouble."

"Uncle Ji has taken good care of me. When Uncle Ji encounters difficulties, I will naturally reciprocate." Wei Zichen smiled at Ji Ning and asked, "Miss Ji, is she not scared?"

"No, thank you for today."

Presumably after today's incident, no one in Beijing will bully them without eyesight.

Wei Zichen nodded and left. Father Tuliuji looked at his back full of admiration: "I was afraid that Zichen would be alienated because of our status as merchants after he became the number one scholar. On the contrary, as before, he never forgets his original intention and knows how to be grateful. In comparison, that Ji Cen can be said to be an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf."

More than a white-eyed wolf?

If Father Ji knew what Wan Cen did in his previous life, he might think that Wan Cen is a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity.

After staying for a while, Ji Ning returned to the inn after dinner.

As Father Ji expected, Wan Cen is not a person who knows how to give up. As soon as Ji Ning returned to the house, she found that the things in the room had been tampered with. Her three silver hairpins were gone, along with ten taels of silver.

Generally speaking, Ji Ning's silver bills are carried with him, and the smaller pieces of silver are placed in Yinqiao's place, so that it is convenient to pay the bill when going out. The reason why she has the ten taels of silver is that she is going to pay for these two days Board and lodging in the inn.

As for the jewelry, there are naturally more than three gold hairpins, it's just because Yin Qiao put all of Ji Ning's jewelry in the jewelry box and locked them up carefully.

Those three were the ones she was planning to give to Liu Zhen and another little maid tonight, to encourage them to compete with Yan Rou for sweetness, but they were gone.

The room was not messed up, if she hadn't been careful, according to the personality of the original owner, the three silver hairpins would not be worth much in her eyes, and if they were gone, they would be gone, but Ji Ning was different.

Anyone who dared to enter a house and steal at will in broad daylight at the foot of the capital must be too courageous. Almost immediately, Ji Ning thought of Wan Cen.

With a sneer, Ji Ning opened the door and said loudly, "Yinqiao, go downstairs and ask the shopkeeper and Xiao Er, after I left today, has anyone entered or left my house? If not, report to the authorities."

Wan Cen, who was listening to the commotion in the side room, couldn't sit still, hurriedly opened the door and came out of the room, pretending not to know: "Madam, Yinqiao, what are you doing so late? But don't disturb others at night."

"My lord, someone came into my house to steal while I was away. This person is very rampant. He even rushed to the emperor's feet in broad daylight to commit such nasty deeds. Naturally, he must report to the officials and punish him severely."

Wan Cen became nervous: "You just lost some belongings. If the amount is not large, don't make a fuss and report it to the officials."

While the two were talking, Wan Mu, Yan Rou and the three little maids gathered at the side one after another, Ji Ning couldn't help but smile.

"How does the master know that the amount of silver taels I lost is not large?"

"I mean you said that you don't have much money on hand recently, so I guess that even if your property is stolen, it is estimated that there is not much money."

Wan's mother had suffered enough from not having money during this time, not only did she search for food, but even wanted to buy some jewelry, she didn't have any money, so when she heard this, she helped Ji Ning to speak up.

"Cen'er, that's not what you said. Didn't you say yesterday that money was a little tight and you wanted some money to buy things for the teacher who teaches you? Besides, we live in this inn, and we have to spend a lot of money on board and lodging every day. , a little more, isn't it?"

Of course, it would be even better if I could give her all of them.

Wan Cen choked, he didn't expect to be dismantled by his mother, and only got: "There are so many people in the capital, it's not easy for the county magistrate to take care of it, we don't want to cause trouble."

"My lord is wrong. Isn't the purpose of setting up the county magistrate by the imperial court to let the county magistrate be the parents and officials of the people and solve the problems for the people? You are so busy, after all, the county magistrate still has time to go to my father's teahouse to make trouble today."

"What?" Wan Cen didn't expect such a thing, and had a bad feeling in his heart, "Then you offended him?"

"It was he who made the trouble first. Since it was a trouble, naturally he can't be allowed to do anything wrong, Yinqiao, you should report to the officials as soon as possible, and by the way, report the trouble that the county magistrate has caused today."

"No!" Wan Cen directly stopped Yin Qiao, seeing that Ji Ning had no intention of backing down, he immediately felt guilty, and could only bite the bullet and put down a soft tone, "Madam, why don't you go back to your room and look for it, maybe it's you Randomly put it away, forget it in other places, if you still can't find it, I will accompany you to report to the official tomorrow morning. As for the matter of the county magistrate, don't make a fuss, I will talk to my husband first, after all, we are new here , the network is not as good as the other party, you have to think about me."
