The Founding of the Red Chamber

Celebrating the new year, the emperor added a prince, and Situ San defeated Boss Hu

It was the first time for Lin Jing to celebrate the New Year at his own home. He kept busy with his ancestors and kept busy. After the reunion dinner, his eyes became sleepy like mosquito coils, and he refused to sleep.

Lin Yi said to him several times, "You are young, don't hold on, go back and rest."

Lin Jing got very angry when he asked him, and said in a temper, "I want to guard and guard, and I want to wait for the fireworks."

Lin Yi didn't want to scold his younger brother for the New Year, Shu Jingyun smiled and said, "Jing'er, do you want to go over and let your elder brother hold you to watch the night? I can set off fireworks with him later." Shu Jingyun is alone, and Lin Yi is a close friend , Lin Jing's husband, therefore, at the invitation of Lin Yi and Lin Jing's brothers, he and the Lin family brothers watched the new year together.

Lin Jing immediately smiled, and regardless of Lin Yi's willingness or not, he jumped off the chair and sat in Lin Yi's arms.Lin Yi glanced at Shu Jingyun, stretched out his arms to hug Lin Jing, his knees swayed, Lin Jing was already sleepy, but he was just struggling, Lin Yi swayed like this, Lin Jing was swaying like in a cradle, and soon fell asleep. The little head dozed off bit by bit.Lin Yi got up and put Lin Jing on the soft couch in the cubicle, Ding Xiang brought a thick quilt, and Lin Yi covered him up.

Until midnight, Lin Yi took his younger brothers out to set off fireworks. Lin Jing was a light sleeper, and when he heard the sound of firecrackers, he woke up and saw that he was in bed, thinking he had returned to his courtyard.After a closer look, he realized that he was in the Nuan Pavilion. He took out a pocket watch with a gold chain from his bosom and looked at it, and it turned out that the time had passed!Lin Jingqi's eyes turned red when he thought that his great wish of vigil had not been fulfilled.

Lin Yi heard the maid's report and knew that Lin Jing had woken up, so he hurried back to see his younger brother. As soon as he entered the yard, he heard Lin Jing's penetrating cry.Lin Yi said to him, "There's no need to cry, you fell asleep by yourself."

Lin Jing burst into tears, "Big brother is all to blame, you insisted on swaying, which made me sleepy. Otherwise, I definitely wouldn't be able to sleep."

"Okay, okay, put on your clothes when you wake up, and I'll take you to set off fireworks." Lin Yi said.

Lin Jing wiped away tears and asked, sobbing, "Where are my shoes?"

Ding Xiang hurriedly handed it over to Lin Jing to put on shoes, Lin Jing wiped away tears, and a little maid brought warm water, Lin Jing said aggrievedly, "I want big brother to help me wash my face."

"I'm really used to you." Lin Yi took the hot and humid towel and wiped off the tears on Lin Jing's face, and then applied Lin Jing's face oil. Then Lin Jing followed Lin Yi out to set off fireworks.Regardless of Lin Jing's young age, he was quite courageous. He picked up cannons and set them off for more than half an hour.It doesn't count if I am enjoying myself, and I keep asking, "Big brother, do you think I played well?"

Lin Yi was very flattering and coaxed Lin Jing, "My brother Jing is the best at firing cannons in the entire emperor." After a while, Lin Yi said, "Okay, let's stop here today. It's already four o'clock, let's go back Go to sleep."

Lin Jing was very happy, and put his cold little hands into Lin Yi's and asked Lin Yi to warm him up, saying, "It's the big brother who put me to sleep early. When the fireworks are set off on time, the best and the loudest will be able to pass the year smoothly and prosperously."

Lin Yi held Lin Jing's little hand and smiled, "Brother Jing likes it, let's play it tomorrow night."

"That's settled." Lin Jing tilted his head and said.

Lin Yi patted his head and hugged him up, "Okay."

Lin Jing was born delicate and weak. In fact, he has the character of a serious boy.Fireworks are set off every year in the palace, Lin Jing is so envious, he has long wanted to taste what it is like to set off fireworks.It's just, what kind of status is he in the palace, and Emperor Zhaode doesn't like him, so he always set off some small firecrackers in the Palace of Mercy to coax children.This time in his own home, he can put it as he likes.

Lin Jing leaned into Lin Yi's ear and whispered, "Big Brother, I'm so happy to go home."

Lin Yi smiled and patted Lin Jing on the back.

On the first day of the new year, naturally every family is happy.

At the same time, a great news came from the royal family.Zhen, the former noble concubine of the harem and a member of the present palace, gave birth to a son on the morning of the first day of the new year. Because the child had an auspicious birthday, Emperor Zhaode rewarded Zhen a lot.

After giving birth, Zhen was exhausted and fell into a coma. When she woke up, the servant Fei Cui told Zhen Shi all the blessings of the Three Palaces.Zhen Shi listened quietly, waiting for Fei Cui to finish reading the generous reward list, Zhen Shi still looked at Fei Cui and asked, "Is there any more?"

"Sister Noble, I've finished reading." Fei Cui smiled.Although they are all palace people, the Zhen family has no rank, but the Zhen family must be a former noble concubine, and she has a newborn prince. Fei Cui is very respectful and careful to her.

"No more?" Ms. Zhen muttered to herself, after she gave birth to a son, His Majesty refused to promote her.What is the use of these rewards?Without status, how would she raise her son?If you can't raise your son yourself, how will you stand up in the future?

At this moment, Mrs. Zhen really regretted it. She shouldn't have joined hands with Concubine Rong because of her arrogance, not to mention offending the Palace of Mercy, her daughter died young, and now she gave birth to a son, and there is no hope of returning... This feeling of despair spread in Mrs. Zhen's heart , Unknowingly, tears are streaming down my face.

When Emperor Zhaode came to Luomeiyuan, he saw Zhen's tears streaming down his face, and I felt sorry for him.Emperor Zhaode felt pity for the fragrance and jade, stepped forward quickly, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Zhen Shi burst into tears, choked up and said, "Your servant is fine."

Emperor Zhaode took out a handkerchief to wipe away tears for Zhen Shi, and said, "You have just given birth, so don't cry, or you will hurt your eyes again."

Zhen Shi lowered her eyes and said, "Your servant is guilty." Since His Majesty is willing to visit her, it means that she still has a place in His Majesty's heart.

"I have already punished you for your crime. You just gave birth to a prince for me. Do you like what I reward you?"

The Zhen family has been favored for many years, and she still has some understanding of Emperor Zhaode's disposition. Hearing what Emperor Zhaode said, Zhen's family knew that there was no hope of restoration. She came out of the cold palace and was much smarter. Where is the little prince?"

The palace people hurriedly carried the little prince over.

My own child is pleasing to the eye no matter what, not to mention that the child's eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to Emperor Zhaode.In particular, Emperor Zhaode had only been accompanied by a half-daughter princess since he was a child. At this time, on the first day of the new year, he had a son who looked exactly like himself, so Emperor Zhaode was naturally happy.

Zhen shi had given birth to a child earlier, so she said with strength, "I know that this servant has committed a lot of crimes and has a humble status, but I don't know which lady Your Majesty wants to entrust the prince to take care of." As she spoke, Zhen shi's tears fell again.

Emperor Zhaode couldn't bear that the woman he loved was so sad now.However, Emperor Zhaode had made a decision long ago, saying, "The empress is the aunt of the prince and daughter. Now the prince lives in the East Palace. When the fourth prince is full moon, he will send the fourth prince to Fengyi Palace to be raised by the empress."

Zhen's tears fell like broken pearls. After a long time, white teeth bit her pale lips. Zhen said silently, "It is the fourth prince's blessing to be taught by the empress."

Zhen's family didn't cry and entangle, but instead had a pale face of resignation and despair. Emperor Zhaode softened his heart and said, "You are obedient and sensible. After all, the fourth prince was born of you, and he will be filial to you in the future."

"Your servant understands." Zhen's eyes were blurred with tears.

Empress Dowager Lin immediately knew about Emperor Zhaode's decision on the fourth prince. Empress Dowager Lin wanted to say something, but she didn't say anything, she just sighed slightly.Zhang Jia, the servant, stepped forward and said with a smile, "My servant saw that in the small kitchen today, there are shrimps that the Fourth Young Master likes to eat. They are big and fresh. There are also small green vegetables, small cucumbers, and fresh shrimps that the Fourth Young Master likes. Water radishes and eggplants are very plentiful, the servant ordered them to keep them alive, and when the fourth son comes, cook them for the fourth son to eat."

Empress Dowager Lin laughed, "The Duke's Mansion may not even have food."

"What's the difference?" Zhang Jia smiled, "Since the Fourth Young Master returned to the Duke's Mansion, the Empress Dowager has been thinking about it a lot. This servant is watching, the Fourth Young Master is also thinking about the Queen Mother."

"There are many restrictions in the palace, and Yi'er has a generous temper, but Jing'er is happier outside." Thinking of Emperor Zhaode's paranoia, Empress Dowager Lin smiled, put most of her energy on Lin Jing, and said with a smile, "However, what you said It also makes sense. You know Jinger's taste, pick some fresh vegetables and send them to the Duke's mansion, and say that I gave them to Jinger."

Zhang Jia hurried down to make arrangements.

Empress Dowager Lin understood Zhang Jia's thoughts, and Zhang Jia had been with her for many years, and she could also see clearly: Empress Xie's responsibility for raising the prince is her due responsibility; but in terms of IQ, it may not be enough.

If Emperor Zhaode was her own son, the little princess from the Zhen family would never have died young, and the current fourth prince would definitely not be handed over to Fengyi Palace.It's just that Emperor Zhaode was full of precautions against her... In fact, Zhang Jia still worried too much.Empress Dowager Lin has long thought, is my honor and wealth important, or the safety of the royal family's inheritance?Even if the first emperor loved her deeply, she would not put the importance of the royal family above herself.

So, for some things, just look at them.

This new year is the most prosperous one for Situ's family.

Although there is nothing rare, there is no shortage of chicken, duck and fish, and all of them are staple foods made of rice and white noodles.In addition, Situ San suddenly changed his temperament, swept away the past rift between him and Situ Er, and generously sent a live pig to Situ Er's family, saying it was a New Year's gift for his elder brother's family.As a result, Situ Er was not willing to eat it, so he secretly sold the live pigs and earned a few taels of silver for his wife to keep carefully.

Situ San just pretended not to know about this kind of thing.

During the Chinese New Year, Situ San called Situ Er to come to the house for a New Year meal to show his closeness.No way, Situ Da also came here uninvited with his wife and children, moaning and saying that he came to visit his own father.

On the other hand, Mrs. Li has lively eyes and bright eyes, and speaks cleverly. She hugged her son and talked endlessly around Mrs. Zhang, "My own brother, his bones are broken and his muscles are still connected. The boss offended the second and third brothers for a while. It was the boss' fault. Two Is the younger brother and third brother really angry and holding grudges? Let the whole village look at it, isn’t it to laugh at us as a big family? No. Mother, you can also help us tell the second and third brothers." As Situ San became more and more promising, Situ Er and his wife changed their tune and called Mrs. Zhang directly.Now Mrs. Situ and his wife were not to be outdone, and Mrs. Li even brought a piece of blue cloth to make a skirt and jacket for Mrs. Zhang, which made Mrs. Zhang feel at a loss.

Mrs. Li guarded Mrs. Zhang and talked about it for a long time, while Situ Da was also pulling his father Situ Qing outside.Situ Qing didn't have much eloquence, so he just said over and over again, "We're all brothers, what's the trouble? What's the trouble?"

Situ Da pulled Situ Er and Situ San into a bow and said, "Second brother and third brother, it's the elder brother's fault."

Situ San didn't like Situ Da at all, and smiled, "Speaking of which, elder brother is Uncle Lu's nephew, and it's not bad to be close to Uncle Lu's family. Boss Hu gave elder brother a lot of money and told him to keep an eye on me , to send a letter to Boss Hu. My eldest brother and I are neither blood brothers, nor can we give elder brother money. Eldest brother stays away from me and gets close to others, what is wrong?"

As he said that, Situ San glanced at Situ Er, and said, "It's the second brother, but our brothers show their temper, and the second brother is a decent person, and won't join forces with outsiders to plot against me. This is the behavior of the second brother, and it has nothing to do with the eldest brother. Why can't elder brother feel sorry for us? I see, elder brother is absolutely right. Eldest brother just thinks that outsiders and money are more important than me and second elder brother."

Situ Da put on a face full of grievances, pushed the previous matter back and forth, confessed himself, and said, "My good brother, how would I know, my brother was really deceived by outsiders. You said Uncle Lu, our father My dear brother, our dear uncle, who knows that he is trying to trick me. It was Boss Hu, who was introduced to me by Uncle Lu. Your elder brother and I have always been honest, who knew that my dear uncle would be tricked."

With two hands, one holding Situ Er and the other holding Situ San, Situ Da casually swears, "My good brother, if I really have the intention to plot against you, I will tell my elder brother to be struck by lightning from the sky, and I will die a terrible death."

As soon as Situ Da uttered the poisonous oath, he heard a loud bang. Situ Da trembled in fright, and took a closer look.When Situ Da heard that his son was crying in fright, he immediately became angry and said to Situ Si, "Xiao Si, it's not even noon yet, what kind of cannon are you firing!"

Situ Sibai took a big look at Situ and said, "The sky is struck by lightning, I'm just reminding my elder brother."

With a guilty conscience, Situ Daton laughed and scolded, "You bastard."

Situ Da dragged his family along and came here, with his own father, Situ Qing, not to mention Situ San had other plans, so he didn't drive Situ Da's family out.So, the whole family made do with a reunion dinner.

During the dinner, Situ Er didn't know what to think of, and asked, "San'er, what happened to Boss Hu? Now the price of this medicinal herb is one day, is your business going well?"

Now Situ San always puts on the appearance of being rich, and slowly chews a piece of oily roast meat in his mouth. Situ San bursts out, "As long as there is money, it is not difficult to do business." After a pause, Situ Three said, "Boss Hu is just relying on his own daughter to be the concubine of the county magistrate, what is a concubine?" The corners of his lips were pulled out, and Situ San kept drinking, and said, "Little wife, that is a slave!"

"My eldest sister, at least she is in the prince's mansion. Could it be that our family is not as good as a servant of the county magistrate's family!"

Situ San suddenly let out such wild words, not to mention the always honest Situ Qing and Mrs. Zhang, even Situ Da and Situ Er and his wife were shocked by Situ San's words.

When Situ Sanhui said this, he was naturally sure.

This new year, Situ San is not idle at all.He spent most of the money he earned from Boss Hu.Through Malu, who used to sign the way for him in the yamen, he met Fang Guanshi, a man who is very trusted by Mrs. Fang's wife in the county. By bribing Fang steward, the county magistrate's family has also had a rough time this year.

The county magistrate is just the respectful title that Situ San and other villagers have for the county magistrate. In fact, in the officialdom, he is a low-ranking, seventh-rank official.

The county magistrate of Fengrao County is surnamed Li, and Li Taiye is not happy this year.Without him, his wife Qin broke out.Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Li are married couples. They have been married for many years. It is easy for the husband to win the Jinshi, and he followed her husband to this not very rich Fengrao County. .As a result, when Mr. Li went out to a banquet, he brought back a young wife. The young wife was none other than a girl from the Hu family.

Since the raw rice was cooked, Miss Hu became Master Li's aunt.

Although this girl from the Hu family was born in the countryside, she is still young, she has delicate skin and flesh, and she still has a bit of aura of the Jiangnan water village, and she is a bit more beautiful than Mrs. Qin, who is a wife of dross.For a man, his lower body must be satisfied first before his upper body can function.

Mrs. Qin didn't say anything on her face, but she couldn't be happy in her heart, but Mrs. Hu was quite clever and was favored by her husband. Mrs. Qin endured until now, and finally caught Mrs. Hu's hand.

Qin shi looked worried, and said to her husband, "Master likes Hu shi, it's okay to spoil her more. I know that master has lofty ambitions, and I don't want to be satisfied with being a magistrate for the rest of my life. However, master should also say something about it." Mrs. Hu, tell her to know how to restrain her family, and not to cause trouble for the master."

Master Li still doesn't know what's going on, Qin's wife is the first wife and the mother of his children.Master Li is a serious scholar, and he respects Qin Shi a lot. He asked, "What do you say? If Hu Shi is not good, Madam can just teach her a lesson."

Qin sneered inwardly, but with a look of surprise on her face, she said, "It turns out that the master is also in the dark, and I thought the master knew about it."

After many years of husband and wife, Qin still knew her husband a little bit. Seeing that her husband really didn't know, she said, "I heard that Hu's father sent slaves to other village chiefs in the name of the master, and only asked the villagers Sell ​​the herb to him, not to anyone else."

"What do I say, our family is a respectable scholarly family, and the master is a county parent official, who has always been upright, honest, impartial and selfless. It is our own family, brothers and relatives, who think merchants are humble and do not take this way. It is the Hu family Even if you are in business, your natal family should understand some principles of personnel. If you have the ability, you do it. If you don’t have the ability, then don’t eat this bowl of rice!” Qin’s face was full of disgust, and said, “I also heard that the Hu family suppressed That family, the eldest daughter of the family works in the prince's mansion in Jinling. Think about it, master, if the eldest daughter is successful, will the master still be an official? Do you want the lives of our family? Don't talk nonsense Aunt Shi's concubine's room, even my first wife, didn't dare to let people go to Yurou Township in the name of the master. If the master doesn't care about it, it will cause a big disaster in the future, what should I do?"

Master Li was greatly surprised, "There is such a thing?"

Qin Shi said, "Master, think about it. Hu Shi has been serving Master for more than a year. Did Master see that I was jealous or did you find Hu Shi? Since Master likes her, it is her good fortune to ask her to serve Master. .It’s just that I didn’t know that the Hu family’s idea of ​​sending their daughter to the master to be a child is so.”

"Master has studied hard for many years. Fang has won a Jinshi and has an errand. It is the grace of the emperor and the blessing of the ancestors. I know that the master has great plans and ambitions, but it is just that the Hu family is so presumptuous now. If it causes big troubles for the master, the future What can I do? Hu and Hu's family matters are small, but the master's future is more important." Qin knows her husband very well, and she has studied hard for many years before she is where she is today.What's more, the husband is only in his early thirties, who really wants to be such a county magistrate the size of a sesame seed for the rest of his life.Mr. Li has some ambitions, which is human nature.

Focusing on the matter of the Hu family, Qin focused on her husband's sore spot, and stabbed her hard a few times. As expected, her husband's face turned completely dark.

Thinking of the Hu family, Master Li softened his heart, "After all, the Hu family is a good citizen."

Qin called out, "Xiangliu, Luyi, come in."

Entering are two little girls from the early days of the Doukou, both of them are dressed in emerald green jackets, they have delicate eyebrows and slender figures, they are quite graceful.Mrs. Qin had a slight smile on her face, "Nowadays there are many things going on this year, and I want to ask Mrs. Hu to help me, but she is a big-hearted person. How dare I use her? Mother Fang is also getting old, and now I bought it. These two little girls also do some work and learn how to raise and lower their eyebrows."

Mr. Li turned his eyes to Xiangliu and Luyi, and said with a smile, "Madam can deal with family matters."

Qin sighed, "I know that Hu is the master's favorite, anyway, I told the master about the matter. The master is an official, and he is more knowledgeable than me. The master is the pillar of the family. What the master says, I listen to."

Mr. Li hurriedly said, "Of course, the affairs of the house are under the control of my wife."

"What about Mrs. Hu, what does the master say to do?" Mrs. Qin asked.

Li Daren said, "What did Madam say?"

Lu Yi stepped forward, holding a cup of tea and offering it to Mrs. Qin, and the silk skirt under her waist was full of spring ripples.Mrs. Qin took a sip of the warm tea and said, "As I said, if the master still likes her, ask the Hu family to give her a body deed. In this way, what happens to the Hu family has nothing to do with the master, and it will be clean in the future. Or If the master is tired of her and rewards her with some gold and silver and sends her back to the Hu family to marry, that's nothing."

Mrs. Hu went with Mr. Li, not to mention Mrs. Hu's good looks now, Mrs. Li said, "It's a little inappropriate to send it back. How about this, ask the Hu family to send Mrs. Hu's body deed, the rules of the family, and the wife also agrees." Teach Mrs. Hu a lesson."

Qin smiled slightly, "Just listen to the master. At the Hu family, the master must always be careful."

Mrs. Qin wanted to take this opportunity to deal with Mrs. Hu, as long as Mrs. Hu's deed was in her hands, Mrs. Hu would be just a servant, life or death, beating or beating could not be sold by her words.Seeing her husband nodding, Qin naturally asked someone to call Hu.

Mrs. Hu was born in a small business family, but she is quite attractive, and compared to the two spring willows and greens that Mrs. Qin bought specially, Mrs. Hu has more of the coquettishness of a mature woman.Mr. Li was a little considerate towards his wife, and before Qin Shi could speak, he scolded Hu Shi first.The matter involved her natal family, and her mother had indeed come to the county government to complain to her several times, not to mention, she had indeed blown the pillow wind at Mr. Li in the bed.

Seeing Mrs. Li turning his face now, Mrs. Hu was very clever, and immediately knelt on the ground to defend, "I have followed the master and served my wife, and have never returned to my mother's house. As for what my father has done, how can I know? And the concubine came to the house, and was taught by the master and wife day and night, the master is the god of the concubine. How can the concubine have the guts to let her family do things that are not good for the master?" Said, two lines rolled down on the face like a flower Tears of grievance came.

Seeing Hu's like this, Mrs. Li felt pity for the fragrance, Qin's eyes half-closed with fine lines, and ordered, "Lu Yi, help Aunt Hu to get up."

Luyi bowed her body, her pink neck was half-drooped, revealing a section of delicate neck, Mr. Li was slightly lost in the shaking, and Luyi moved lightly in front of Mrs. Hu, holding Mrs. Hu's arm, and said softly, "Auntie Ma'am, please get up."

Mrs. Qin said to Mr. Li, "It's hard for an upright official to break up housework. It's alright. If Mrs. Hu is really questioned when she comes, it's not like handling her own family affairs, but like interrogating a thief." Mrs. Qin mentioned Mrs. Hu's visit As for the matter of the Hu family, her husband's expression darkened as expected, Li Daren said, "Just do as you say."

Mrs. Qin nodded, and said to her confidant Mrs. Fang, "Tell your man to take the master's post to Hu's house and ask for Mr. Hu's deed."

Although the Hu family is a family of small merchants, there are three or five servants in the family. Naturally, the Hu family knows what a body deed is.Hearing what Qin said, Hu clutched his stomach and screamed with a pale face.As a result, Mrs. Hu was carried back to the small courtyard and asked for a doctor's examination. It turned out that she was pregnant.

Now, Mr. Li's backyard is even more lively.The virtuous wife was angry, the beautiful concubine was sad, and the two slender girls were so invisible to Mr. Li that he couldn't touch them. The whole new year was full of chaos.

Situ San made friends with Steward Fang, so he naturally knew something about Mr. Li's inner house. Situ San said, "If my wife can't subdue Aunt Hu this time, it will be even more difficult when Aunt Hu gives birth to a son."

Steward Fang sighed, "Who says it's not." His wife is Mrs. Qin's confidant, so he got the position of steward.

Situ San smiled, "This man, take one step back, one step at a time."

Although Steward Fang is a slave, his family's interests are tied to Mrs. Qin's.Don't underestimate the dispute between wives and concubines in the inner house. If Mrs. Qin is in trouble, he will be as unhappy as his wife, Mrs. Fang.The husband and wife chattered, Mrs. Fang was deeply trusted by Mrs. Qin, and said beside Mrs. Qin, "Madam is too merciful. This time, Mrs. is soft-hearted. When that little hoof gives birth to a son in the future, there will be more You can't beat her, you can't do anything about her."

In the end, Mrs. Qin was cruel, and gave Luyi to her husband, and at the same time got Mrs. Hu's body deed, and then asked someone to go to the herbal medicine shop of Mrs. Hu's to buy good things to nourish Mrs. Hu, and she was enough to be the mistress. duty.However, how could the Hu family dare to take money from the magistrate, let alone to make up for their own aunt.

However, although the daughter had a body, her body contract was demanded and she became a servant of the county magistrate's family.Moreover, the Hu family, who was severely warned by the county magistrate, not only suffered the consequences for their daughter, but also misfortunes never come singly.

This matter has something to do with Situ San.

Under Situ San's suggestion, Situ Da Situ Er went to the house of his uncle Situ Lu.Situ Lu opened a small dyeing workshop in the town. He was originally the same family as the Hu family, and the two talked about marriage and got engaged.

Now the Hu family is in great misfortune, and I heard from two nephews that the daughter of the Hu family was extorted and became a servant of the county magistrate's family. It was Boss Hu who was reprimanded by the county magistrate because of his inappropriate behavior. In addition, Boss Hu's business is declining day by day, and his family business is neglected... After thinking about it, Situ Lu came to the door directly to withdraw the marriage.

Boss Hu was hit by this, Haoxuan didn't spit out two mouthfuls of blood.

Boss Hu's vitality was seriously injured, and Situ San naturally went smoothly.

He was busy with business in the village, when a visitor suddenly came to visit - Malu from the yamen came to Situ Village in person.

Now that the price of medicinal herbs has dropped back to the normal level, Situ Sanzhong started to buy medicinal herbs. Seeing Malu coming, Situ San hurriedly greeted him with a smile and cupped his fists, "Brother Ma, why are you here?"

"Come and see you." Malu took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and put it in Situ San's hand, "Hey, I'll bring you your guide along the way." Moving closer to Situ San, Malu whispered, " I gave you a year to open it, which saves you always going to the yamen, and paying money to those shameless people." Situ Sanhao was in a relationship, and he was lax when he had money in his hand. Every time he went to the yamen, he always had to spend money.There are even some thick-skinned yamen, eating and drinking.

Situ San smiled, "But my dear brother is just thinking about my business. Today my brother is here, so I can't leave. I'll have a few drinks with him."

Ma Lu came to Situ Village to give Situ San a guide, and naturally wanted to get close to Situ San, so he naturally followed the trend.

A smug look flashed in Situ San's eyes, and Malu personally sent Lu Yinlai to him, which meant that in the fight with Boss Hu, Boss Hu was completely defeated.

Situ San made a table of fish and meat, and drank with Ma Lu, and Ma Lu said, "Boss Hu is in disgrace now, and the shop is about to close. I heard that he beat chickens and scolded dogs every day at home, and even the two boys around him couldn't stand him." He beat and scolded and ran away. Hmph, come to our yamen to report the escape of the slave..."

Situ San couldn't help thinking of the blessing of the one who had come to him to ask for money, so he personally held the cup for Malu, and asked with a smile, "Boss Hu went to report the crime to make the brothers rich."

Malu curled his lips, "Who cares about him?" Then he satirized Boss Hu's stinginess, "Throw a few copper coins for us to drink, and treat us as his servants."

"Bah! I really think of myself as our grandfather's serious father-in-law."
