Daming Junior Scholar

Sure enough, as Xu Wen said, after Li Fu woke up without a good night's rest, he found that He Jia'an and Xu Wen hadn't returned to the boat. Following him, a dozen or so little eunuchs came to Baoyue Villa.

Seeing the gate of this villa, Li Fu's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help snorting coldly in his heart. These two guys really know how to find a place, and they actually found such a comfortable place to rest without telling themselves , I will definitely not let He Jiaan go easily this time.

Thinking of this, a little eunuch next to Li Fu walked to the front desk of the villa, slapped the counter heavily, and said in a high-pitched voice: "Go, call He Jiaan and Xu Wen, and say that Eunuch Li is looking for them. "

"Where did Eunuch Li come from? How could he have such a temper?" While talking, He Jiaan and Xu Wen came out from the other side. When they saw Li Fu's iron-blue face, He Jiaan couldn't help but say, "Oh , it’s really Eunuch Li, aren’t you sick and unable to come?”

Chapter 1162

From the moment he saw He Jiaan, all the grievances, unwillingness, and anger in Li Fu's heart were about to burst out. He walked in front of He Jiaan with a straight face, and the more he looked at his hypocritical face, the more angry he became. He snorted and said, "Master He, you did a good job."

"Oh? How do you say that?" He Jiaan looked at Li Fu with an innocent expression, and before he could speak, he suddenly realized: "Eunuch Li wanted to say why he didn't invite you to dinner yesterday, right? This is a misunderstanding by Eunuch Li. It was already very late when Mr. Xu arrived last night, and the curfew is about to come. Even if you come back to find you, it will be too late, so please don’t be offended by Eunuch Li. Come, come, let’s make up for it today. Not too late."

This is not an apology to myself, this is clearly playing with myself, I am not the one who missed this meal.

The expression of disdain in his mouth became stronger, and Li Fu said angrily: "Master He, please don't misunderstand, the Zajia is not short of that meal, what the Zajia wants to ask is in Xujiadu, why did you leave the Zajia alone? ? Do you know that the Zajia is the supervisor of the team, and you dare to escape from the surveillance of the Zajia? Could it be that you want to do something shameful?"

This was a bit serious, and He Jiaan's smiling face immediately turned cold, and he snorted coldly, "Then Eunuch Li thinks, what shameful things do I have to do?"

"Then only Mr. He knows clearly." Li Fu said without giving an inch.

"If that's the case, I have something I want to ask Eunuch Li. Not long after I arrived in Suzhou, you have already caught up with me, and judging by your energy, you don't seem to be seriously ill. You suddenly fell ill that day, did you have any shady plans?"

"You..." This sentence can be regarded as hitting Li Fu's vital point. I wanted to stop the boat at Xujiadu at that time, because I wanted to drag He Jiaan here, but I didn't expect that He Jiaan would ignore me at all and leave Xu Wen directly. I just walked away, so that I didn't need to pretend anymore, so I could only get on the boat and chase after him. I thought that after I caught up, I would be able to ask He Jiaan face to face why he abandoned his sins, but I didn't expect that He Jiaan would fight back like this. It was because I became a little overwhelmed and didn't know how to explain it.

Li Fu didn't know how to explain it, but He Jiaan was unwilling to let go of this opportunity to beat a dog in the water. If Li Fu was not allowed to taste his power, he really thought he was easy to bully, so he didn't care about Li Fu's face. Seeing the ugly expression on his face, he continued to say: "I heard from Mr. Xu that Eunuch Li was already able to walk like flying that morning, and I heard that he beat up the doctor who treated you. I don't understand, Li Why did Eunuch Li lay such a heavy hand on his savior? Or... is Eunuch Li trying to cover up some facts?"

"What can I cover up?" Li Fu said with a little confidence: "If Mr. He doesn't believe it, you can go to Xujiadu to confront the doctor."

"Forget it, I'm afraid it's too late to go back now, let's save his life, but since Eunuch Li has arrived in Suzhou, do you want me to recommend a good doctor to treat you? There is still a long way to go to Paju , don’t get sick again on the way, and then don’t blame me for not waiting for you.”

When I came here, I thought about how I should scold He Jiaan, but after arriving here, Li Fu finally learned He Jiaan's eloquence, and he was so choked that he couldn't speak for a long time, so he could only snort heavily: "Since Master He also knows that time is limited, why don't you go back to the boat and set off quickly, and when will you be able to arrive at Paju while you are dawdling here."

"No hurry, no hurry, Eunuch Li was sick a few days ago, and I feel a little unwell these days, otherwise, let's stay in Suzhou for a few days first, what do you think, Eunuch Li?"

This……

Since He Jiaan offered to stay, it is of course good. The later you arrive in Paju, the happier you will be, but seeing He Jiaan's flushed face, he doesn't seem to be suffering from any illness. He is beating again what idea?

After thinking about it, Li Fu nodded cautiously and said, "Since Mr. He wants to stay, then just stay. I wonder which room the miscellaneous family will live in?"

The conditions on the boat were limited, and Li Fu really didn't want to live there. He thought that since He Jia'an could live here, he could live here too, so he didn't think too much about it, and just asked casually.

"Hehe, Eunuch Li may have misunderstood." He Jiaan suddenly smiled, and then said with a malicious smile on his face: "This is a private villa, Master Xu and I lived here at our own expense, if Eunuch doesn't dislike it , it’s better to live on the boat.”

what?

The two of you are resting here, but you are going back to sleep on that damn boat?

Li Fu was immediately annoyed by He Jiaan's words. Isn't it just money? It's not like he didn't have any money. He didn't even want to talk to He Jiaan. He simply turned around and came to the counter, and asked coldly: "Is there any room left? Let's open a room."

"Sorry, no more." The shopkeeper behind the counter replied cautiously.

"What?" Li Fu stared, and said coldly: "The miscellaneous family lives here to save face, no matter which one it is, immediately make room for me."

There was no expression of fear on the shopkeeper's face, it was still the same sentence just now: "Hehe, I'm so sorry, we really don't have any vacancies here."

"Presumptuous, call your host to the miscellaneous family, and the miscellaneous family will not believe that even a room can't be vacated." Li Fu's anger that had been pent up for a long time finally couldn't help but burst out. The people in the villa actually dared to bully him. If he could bear it any longer, he might as well be a turtle.

Just when he was thinking about how to clean up the owner of this villa, he suddenly saw He Jiaan walking over with a smile, but he turned a corner and stood beside the shopkeeper, then looked at himself with a smile and said: "Eunuch Li, Are you looking for me?"

"Eh?" Li Fu seemed to understand something at that moment, and after looking up and down He Jia'an, he asked with some disbelief: "Isn't Mr. He the owner of this villa?"

He Jiaan nodded and said: "Eunuch Li is right, this Baoyue Villa is indeed He's property, and I'm really embarrassed to say it, it's better to be quiet, so I booked all the remaining rooms in the villa. But if Eunuch Li really wants to live here, it's not impossible, at worst, just pay some money."

"How much do you want?" Li Fu didn't understand that He Jiaan was trying to trick him, and his voice became more and more indifferent.

"Not much, not much, 1000 taels per night." He Jiaan pointed out a finger.

Looking at He Jiaan's hideous face, Li Fu wanted to slap him so that his face would bloom, but he had the idea but didn't have the guts. After glaring at He Jiaan, he nodded bitterly and said, "Master He, Miscellaneous!" Learned, we will meet later."

After finishing speaking, Li Fu walked away with his dog legs.

When they were no longer in sight, Xu Wen approached He Jiaan and asked worriedly: "Did Jiaan offend him too much this time? You must know that these eunuchs hold grudges the most."

"Don't worry." He Jia'an comforted Xu Wen and said, "These people are the most able to adapt to the situation. As long as I don't fall out of favor, they won't dare to offend me."

Chapter 1163

Just like what He Jiaan said, don't look at Li Fu's domineering appearance no matter where he is, but when he really meets him, he is the one who softens first, at least in these three days During the period, I never saw Li Fu dangling in front of my eyes. I heard from the people on board that Li Fu had never been out of the cabin in the past three days, and even the food he ate was brought in by those little eunuchs.

When the sun rose again, there was a sea of ​​people in front of the magistrate’s yamen in Suzhou City. People who saw the notice yesterday entered the city early in the morning, and crowded onto the square in front of the yamen without even having breakfast, for fear of missing out. This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

There is still some time before the opening of the yamen, but more and more people are gathering in the square, and there are many people who know each other. After getting together, they start to chat enthusiastically. Of course, most of them are ordinary people. The ordinary people in the city, who are new to everything when they come to the city for the first time, don't dare to talk to others when they see others chatting, so they gather in the corner and wait for the yamen to open for a while before going to sign up.

The three brothers of the Xie family from Wujiang are one of these people. Among the three brothers, the eldest is Xie Tiansheng, the second is Xie Tianqi, and the youngest is Xie Tianyang. The three brothers are originally fishermen on the Yangtze River, and they are the most familiar. It is water-based, but God has repeatedly brought disasters recently, and the few acres of land at home have also been flooded. Fishing alone can't even fill my stomach. When I was worrying, I happened to hear someone reading this notice. The three brothers thought, Anyway, if you keep it, you will starve to death. It is better to come out and try your luck.

So the three brothers didn't need to think about it, and asked someone to point out a way, and came to Suzhou with a black eye. When they followed the crowd to the gate of the yamen, the three brothers were so hungry that they were growling.

The more they had nothing to eat, the more they wanted to eat. When the three brothers were waiting to open the door, the small merchants and hawkers around saw the business opportunity. They quit the original breakfast stall and directly picked the food here. Opening the lid of the cage drawer, a special aroma of meat buns came out.

Those people who could go in after a little bit of patience could no longer bear it anymore when they smelled the aroma. They gathered around one after another, took out the copper coins that were not much at first, replaced them with steamed buns, and ate them in big mouthfuls.

Seeing that everyone else is eating steamed buns, the three brothers are even more disappointed, especially the youngest Xie Tianyang, who is only 16 years old this year, just when he couldn't bear the hunger, he licked his dry lips and looked at the eldest pitifully Xie Tiansheng glanced at him and said in a low voice, "Brother, I'm hungry."

Not only are you hungry, isn't your elder brother hungry?

Xie Tiansheng silently watched the belt around his waist tighten again, and then said in a low voice: "Young three, please bear with me a little longer. After we finish registering, the elder brother will ask them to borrow two money and I will buy it for you."

After all, there is still no money, Xie Tianyang glanced at the eldest brother silently, and said when he lowered his head: "Brother, if they don't borrow it, we will starve to death here?"

"I can always borrow two. I heard that soldiers get six taels of silver a month. It's not bad for us." The second child, Xie Tianqi, was also a little hungry. It was monopolized, and the three brothers didn't even catch a single fish in the past two days, so they couldn't handle it today.

Looking at the two brothers with disheveled faces, Xie Tiansheng felt uncomfortable. If he is the eldest brother, he can't even take care of the two brothers, so why should he be called the eldest brother? He looked up and saw that there were fewer and fewer steamed buns not far away. I finally became cruel, gritted my teeth and said, "You two are waiting here, brother will find a way for you."

In the hearts of the two, the eldest brother is the most omnipotent one. Seeing Xie Tiansheng walking towards the stall selling steamed buns, the eyes of the two brothers suddenly shone with happiness, as if the big snow-white steamed buns would be gone the next moment. As if it would fall into your own mouth.

Xie Tiansheng came over with a feeling of apprehension, just as the person in front left, the steamed bun vendor saw him and asked enthusiastically, "Brother, would you like a steamed bun?"

"How much is one?" Xie Tiansheng forced a smile and asked.

"It's not expensive, one for two fen, three for five fen." The peddler stretched out five fingers and asked, "How about three?"

Xie Tiansheng didn't know what he was thinking, he nodded like a ghost: "Come three."

"Okay." The peddler quickly took out three steamed buns from the drawer, wrapped them in toilet paper, handed them to Xie Tiansheng, and said with a smile, "Thank you for your visit, five cents."
