Kaifeng mansion's first drama

"When you bought his painting, how much did you give him?" Pang Yuanying asked.

"He asked for ten taels, and I gave 50 taels." Pang Yuanqing replied.

"Then it's not surprising, whoever called you big head gave you so much money before cheating." Pang Yuanying nodded with a clear face. "What happened later, after he said his mother was crazy?"

"I wanted to give it to him, but he didn't want it. I think he is a filial son, so I spent 200 taels to ask Taoist Daxian for help." Pang Yuanqing continued.

"If you pretend to be pitiful like this, wouldn't you be more considerate and willing to 'give out' more? If you want to refuse to welcome, retreat is the trick used by scammers." Pang Yuanying sighed, "Fortunately, you have someone who can exorcise ghosts. The big brother here will help you, otherwise you may not know that you have been cheated by him for the rest of your life."

Pang Yuanqing frowned and looked at Liu Xiucai, even though he was angry, he was still gentle, "You are such a person."

"Have you discovered this wonderful method a long time ago?" Pang Yuanying asked the still silent Liu Xiucai, "I found that the money of scholars is easy to cheat, especially young scholars with pure minds. These scholars do not make friends with people based on their background, but only on their social background. They are talented, and because they usually study at home, they are not involved in the world, and their minds are simple. Feel free to play tricks on them a little bit, and they will be easily tricked. Do you think I am right?"

Liu Xiucai turned her head away, avoiding Pang Yuanying's gaze, and only looked at Liu Shi: "I don't know what you said, my mother is like this, and you still say she is pretending to be stupid? You can insult me, but you can't insult my mother. What is the situation of my family?" Can't you see? This is nothing you rich and noble boys play around with. If you look down on me, please get out. I never asked you to help me!"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh."

It seems that the two of them are still lucky and want to carry it to the end.

"You're welcome, you met a good person today. I'm willing to take the initiative to help you get rid of this bad habit, so I'll have Lao Bai to protect you." Pang Yuanying cupped her hands and said to Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang drew his knife and flew towards Liu Xiucai and Liu's mother and son.Bai Yutang himself had a cold breath, giving the impression of being aloof and arrogant, with his eyes looking up to the sky, he was not a friendly person at all.When Liu Xiucai first met Bai Yutang just now, he was inexplicably afraid of him.Seeing him flying over very quickly at this moment, his eyes were cold and without heat, ruthlessly ignoring all life.This kind of menacing aura will never be pretended to scare people. He regards human life as nothing, and he will really kill people with his hands.

In an instant, Liu Xiucai and Liu's family felt that their lives were threatened.Shouting for help in unison, dodging left and right.

Liu Shi hid behind the window, and seeing Bai Yutang stopped, she glanced at her with disgust.Liu Shi was so frightened that she immediately knelt down and kowtowed to apologize.

At this time, Liu Xiucai also ran to Mrs. Liu, and knelt down to admit his mistake, saying that he didn't know good and evil, and cheated the wrong person.This will return the money that Pang Yuanqing gave him before.

Pang Yuanqing frowned, "You mother and son are really pretending! It's too low!"

"Is that painting really yours?" Pang Yuanying asked Liu Xiucai again.

Liu Xiucai nodded.

Bai Yutang: "Gentle scum."

"My family isn't that poor, right? If you were really poor, you would have thought of a way to sell those three paintings. You wouldn't hang them on the wall for decoration. I think the purpose of your hanging paintings is to remind the scholar who came to you that you are very talented. That’s right. Let them see you in such a poor situation, and once again appreciate your talents and offer money to help you. As for you, I guess you will politely refuse at first, and finally they will offer you a high price in order to help you Buy your paintings." Pang Yuanying sighed with a smile, "Good business, but I don't know how many times you have used this method."

Pang Yuanying jumped off the table and went to search the house.Under the guidance of Taomujian, Pang Yuanying went straight to a dilapidated firewood room in the backyard, and after using a wooden stick to push aside the chaotic firewood and straw piled up in the corner, he saw a cellar cover.Pang Yuanying asked for an oil lamp, and went down to the cellar to see that there was a large box of silver in it, including fragments of silver and large gold ingots, as well as several jade pendants and inkstones, which were gifts from scholars.

Go outside and ask the neighbors nearby. Liu Xiucai will indeed bring some well-dressed scholars home every one or two months.Everyone knows that this is a friend he made by virtue of his talent.But almost everyone is surprised, since Liu Xiucai can make so many seemingly rich friends, why his family is still so poor.Everyone thought it was because he was too poor to get around, and he was too noble to accept funding from friends.

In fact, Liu Xiucai is much 'smarter' than they thought.

According to Liu Xiucai's account, every time a scholar was tricked by him in the past, he asked his mother to pretend to be sick and make the room smell of medicine to win sympathy.This time, because he encountered such a big fish as Pang Yuanying, Liu Xiucai wanted to get a big one to stir up the atmosphere, so that everyone in the village would 'beat up' him and make their mother and son look even more pitiful.This is not only true, but also arouses more sympathy from Pang Yuanqing.In the end, their mother and son would pool up 1000 taels, leave the village, find a place to buy land and a big house, and become wealthy landowners.

As for reading, Liu Xiucai is actually not a good material, he is just better at drawing.Usually fooling those scholars, the so-called eloquence is that he has often listened to the discussions of those literati and inkmen for several years. After recording them, he further refined them, and occasionally uttered shocking poems. West came together.

"It turns out that you are not a real scholar, and you are not even worthy of the name of a gentle scum." After ridiculing, Bai Yutang asked Pang Yuanying and Liu Xiucai whether the amount of fraud was enough to be sentenced to death.

Pang Yuanying nodded.

Liu Xiucai was so frightened that his face instantly turned pale, and he repeatedly kowtowed and begged for mercy.His mother, Liu Shi, was even more frightened, crying and kowtowing, begging Pang Yuanying to forgive them.

"My mother and I are poor and afraid, but the story about the jade gourd is true. Everyone in the village covets it and has always planned to bully the orphans and widows. After so many years, if we don't let it go, we will be smarter and darker. How could I survive. So I lied to money, saved up money, and wanted to move out of this village. At first I thought I would leave with ten taels of silver, but then I calculated that life was difficult, so I saved more, and the result became more and more greedy—” Liu Suddenly, she thought of something, and begged Pang Yuanying to let her son go with tears, claiming that all of this was her idea, and that she would be punished if she wanted to, and she was willing to suffer death.

Liu Xiucai grabbed her mother's arm, cried and shook her head.

"This reason is too fake. Your son led the whole deception process. If he didn't want to, how could he act so well and resembling him?" Pang Yuanying told Liu Xiucai and her son not to pretend to be affectionate here. receive punishment.As for their motives for committing crimes, Pang Yuanying will tell the people in Kaifeng Mansion to investigate clearly, and if there are difficulties, they will naturally deal with them at the trial.

"I've never lied to the poor, I just seek out those rich men who have some spare money on hand." Liu Xiucai argued hastily.

Pang Yuanying waved to Liu Xiucai, telling him to stop making excuses.

The facts of the case were clear, it was just a small fraud case, Pang Yuanying planned to arrange for people from the village to guard it, and it would be fine for them to come back to Beijing and let people from Kaifeng Mansion come.

Pang Yuanqing pulled Pang Yuanying, thinking it was inappropriate. "I think the people in the village are really unfriendly to them. If they want to watch, they still have so much money, they are afraid that they will steal it."

Bai Yutang agreed with Pang Yuanqing's proposal: "There is a beginning and an end. We will leave after the person who takes over from Kaifeng Mansion arrives."

Pang Yuanqing sent Qingfeng to inform Kaifeng Mansion to send someone.

The village chief, Xiong Feng, heard that Shaoyin had come to the village, so he came to pay a special visit. Seeing this scene, he hurriedly asked why.

Pang Yuanying looked at Xiong Feng. He is in his 40s, strong and strong, with a generous face. He is easy-going when he smiles and speaks politely.

After Xiong Feng learned what had happened, he lamented that Liu Xiucai's mother and son were black-hearted.

"Should everything in this house be confiscated?"

"Yes, in about two hours, people from Kaifeng Mansion will take over." Pang Yuanying said.

Xiong Feng hurriedly cupped his hands and lamented Pang Shaoyin's hard work: "If the three adults have to wait here for two hours, they will definitely be thirsty. I ordered someone to bring some refreshments to you. There happens to be a family in our village that specializes in making herbal tea. Very nice."

Xiong Feng sent people over after speaking.

Li Xiucai blushed and stopped talking.Liu Shi only cared about crying and didn't say any more.

"I'll go outside." Bai Yutang couldn't get used to Liu's constant crying.

Pang Yuanqing didn't want to see the mother and son either.

With Taozi watching and Bai Yutang's keen vigilance, there shouldn't be any problem.Pang Yuanying took Pang Yuanqing to check the ropes on the two of them, managed the windows, and they both went to the outside room.

After a while, Xiong Feng smiled and brought a middle-aged man in. The man was carrying a big teapot.

Pang Yuanying saw that this person was familiar to him. He was the owner of the tea shed he had met twice on the road.Pang Yuanying gave him the peace talisman, and he was very grateful.

Seeing that Pang Yuanying was about to kneel in a hurry, the owner of the tea shed shouted for his benefactor.

"Get up! Does your family live here?" Pang Yuanying asked.

The owner of the tea shed promised to tell Pang Yuanying that his surname is Tian, ​​and the word for tea is one word. His grandparents and fathers all sold herbal tea, and so did he.

"Today is really a great fate. I didn't expect to see my benefactor in my own village. I still have the wild vegetable pastry that I just made today. My daughter-in-law's craftsmanship. I have never been willing to let outsiders eat it. Benefactor eats it I am used to delicacies from mountains and seas, so I also have a taste of our wild vegetables, the taste is special, it is a must."

Hearing what Tian Cha said, Pang Yuanying felt really hungry.Anyway, waiting here is boring, so just eat.

After Tian Cha poured tea for Pang Yuanying and the others with a smile, he hurried home to get wild vegetables.

Xiong Feng sighed that it was too hot this day, and gave way with a bowl of tea, asking Pang Yuanying and others to drink first.Pang Yuanying saw that he was thirsty and anxious to drink water, and told him not to be polite, just drink his own.

Xiong Feng quickly poured a bowl of tea into his stomach in one breath, and then poured the second bowl.Turning around, he saw the grass growing under the courtyard wall, and pointed out. He hurriedly finished the second bowl of tea in his hand, ran to the bottom of the wall, and squatted down to pull the weeds.

"The wild vegetable mentioned just now is full of wild vegetables."

After Xiong Feng got up, he turned his head and happily walked over to Pang Yuanying and the others holding the grass in his hand.

Pang Yuanying thought the village chief's gesture was cute, so she smiled and got up to pick it up.Xiong Feng stopped suddenly, his face twisted, he dropped the vegetables in his hand, spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell to the ground.

Seeing this, the three rushed to check the situation and called for help.Bai Yutang felt the pulse on Xiong Feng's neck with his hand, and told Pang Yuanying that he was still alive.

Two villagers came to help, and together they carried Xiong Feng to the nearby wing to take care of him.

"There is poison in the tea." Holding the sword, Bai Yutang asked the owner of the tea shed where Tian Cha lived, and then chased after him.

Pang Yuanying and Pang Yuanqing also hurriedly followed.

The three of them arrived at the door of Tian Cha's house, just in time to meet Tian Cha coming out with a hot steamer.

Tian Cha was stunned for a moment, smiled and hurriedly invited the three of them in.

Pang Yuanying narrowed his eyes, "Not good, I fell for it."

Then he turned and ran.
