Archery of Gongshou Rivers and Mountains

"Guangli, Guangli." The surrounding area was so dark that Wanyan Kang couldn't even see his own toes, only this very familiar voice called him with a unique title.

Wanyan Kang followed the voice with deep feet and shallow feet, and after walking for an unknown amount of time, the voice calling him suddenly became choked up, and Wanyan Kang actually began to smell a faint smell of blood: "Ouyang, what's wrong with you?" ?” Wanyan Kang couldn’t help asking.

"It hurts..." Ouyang Ke said aggrievedly.

"You..." Wanyan Kang wanted to continue asking, but he stepped on something under his feet, his footing was unstable, and he fell forward. When trying to grasp his balance, his hands touched the cold rock.

Suddenly, this dark place lit up, and Wanyan Kang saw the blue sea as far as the eye can see, saw the red sun slowly sinking to the west, and saw that what he touched was a piece of moss still covered with moss. The huge rocks, and even saw the people under the rocks!

"Ouyang!"

"Guangli...I'm in so much pain...will I die?"

"Don't worry, it's okay, I'll rescue you right away, I..."

Wanyan Kang suddenly sat up from the low couch, but startled the old housekeeper who was standing next to him and was about to call him: "Old Zhao, what's the matter?" Wanyan Kang asked, wiping his forehead at the same time, The place is indeed full of cold sweat.

"Master, the female thief came again yesterday and brought her father along, saying that she wanted to pay back the money."

"what?"

"Then the old man said that it was a cheap meal."

"If he doesn't eat, we naturally won't give it away, and he will keep it."

"Yes."

"Wait, Mr. Zhao, do you know where Ouyang went to find the old owner?"

"..." The old housekeeper glanced at Wanyan Kang. Although he didn't back down, he didn't say a word. people.To him, Wanyan Kang is not considered an outsider, but he is not considered one of his own either.He even had a secret order from Ouyang Feng, telling him to guard against Wanyan Kang.

"Mr. Zhao, I just had a nightmare. I was afraid that something would happen to him." In fact, Wan Yankang also knew that he was thinking about it day and night. He still vaguely remembered that Ouyang Ke's leg was broken by Huang Rong, but Now this is impossible.But these days, it was the first time, and there was no news from Ouyang Ke at all, so I couldn't help thinking wildly.

The old butler also saw Wanyan Kang wake up profusely in sweat just now. Hearing what he said, his guard immediately faded away. He also thought that he and Ouyang Ke had been married and beautiful for the past two years, so they didn't Keep it from him—ordinary people might still worry about the two men cutting off their incense like this, but the people of the Jianghu live today and die tomorrow, and they take the matter of future generations lightly. Don't literati always say "I wish to have People with one heart and one mind never leave each other.”

"Master, don't worry, the young master and the old master are both guests in Dongting, Iron Palm Gang, and there is no danger of life."

"Iron Palm Gang?" The name Wanyan Kang sounds familiar, but if you think about it, you can't think of anything, "It's good that he's fine."

Wanyan Kang was finally relieved, drank some hot water, and went to the study to deal with his business.Now he can be regarded as a top-ranked maritime merchant. Wanyankang has also started to buy properties and set up factories on land. Wanyankang also has his own concerns about overseas affairs. His current business affairs are more unified than what he does in Shaanxi. Even busy.

After reading two pages of the account book, the old housekeeper knocked on the door and entered the study. Wanyan Kang could see that the old housekeeper's expression was rarely ugly.

"Master, the old man of that female thief suddenly passed out."

Wan Yankang's first reaction was that he had met a blackmailer. Could it be that he saw that they let his daughter go and returned the money, so he thought he was being taken advantage of?

It's no wonder Wanyan Kang thought so, what he realized was already very kind.Let the thief go, and give money.And this was not a sudden meal, and suddenly passed out at the gate of his house, no matter how I thought about it, I felt suspicious.

"Really dizzy, fake dizzy?"

"I felt the pulse. The old man had a heartache before. It just relapsed. But now the situation has stabilized. I have carried him into the West Chamber on my own initiative."

Wanyan Kang originally stood up and wanted to go to have a look, but when the butler said so, he sat back down.He is now avoiding publicity.He wants to keep in touch with Zhao and Ju, so he can't live in too remote a place. Near Niujia Village is his best choice. However, although there are not many people who know him near Lin'an, it's better just in case .

"Old Zhao, what's going on here?" Since the other party's condition has stabilized, it's better to ask clearly now.

What happened is also very simple to say.

Just now, a man and a woman, one old and one young, came to the door of their house. The old one was polite at first, but when he arrived at the concierge, he just said that he wanted to see their master.The concierge didn't know these two people at all, and asked them to explain their identities.

If the old man didn't say anything, the concierge couldn't let him in, but the old man insisted on going in, so there was a commotion.After the other servants arrived, someone recognized the woman as a female thief, and they started yelling and cursing on the spot.

It turns out that the old man didn't say it just now because his daughter was a female thief yesterday, so he couldn't say it out—whatever he did was a chivalrous thing, and he was a good man if he wasn't caught. If he was caught, the thief's reputation still remained It's not good.

At this time, the old butler arrived, and temporarily suppressed the people on his side, and asked about the purpose of the father and daughter's visit. It is conceivable that the conversation between the two is not as polite as it was at the beginning, and the old butler naturally It doesn't look good to them either.

In fact, the old housekeeper can make the decision by taking back that little money. He just came back to see Wan Yankang only because the other party didn't think that this matter was up to him as a servant, and even suspected that the owner of the villa was treating his daughter. If you have any unreasonable thoughts, in short, you must see the owner of the villa to "explain your interests".

However, the old housekeeper only said that he would not eat what he had bought, and sure enough Wanyan Kang asked him to take back the money and forget it.After listening to Yan Kang's question about Ouyang Ke's safety, the old housekeeper looked down on those two people outside the house even more—are they afraid of the owner's unreasonable thoughts, or are they hoping that the owner will have unreasonable thoughts?The old butler didn't believe that the other party didn't know that Wan Yankang didn't even know what the female thief looked like, but he didn't know that Yang Tiexin was using Zhao Yuju, who later gave Yang Nianci 50 taels, as someone who had other plans and concealed his name. the owner.

And when the old butler returned, he naturally failed to invite the owner back, and even sneered at the other party for a while, Yang Tiexin was furious, but he softened halfway through the rush...

After hearing the whole story, Wan Yankang understood that this was a completely unfounded disaster.

"I'll go see this person, and I'll send him away after I explain clearly." Wan Yankang said to the housekeeper, then put down his work, and headed towards the west chamber with the housekeeper.But seeing that the West Wing was about to arrive, Wan Yankang saw a woman escorting a man dressed as a doctor out, and immediately hid behind the rockery beside the road.

"Master?" The butler was puzzled.

"When the old man's condition is stable, send them away immediately." Wan Yankang waved to the butler behind the rockery, and immediately ran back to the study under the cover of rocks and trees—even though Ouyang Ke said that the Yang family He lives in Hetang Village, and Hetang Village is not far from Niujia Village, but Wanyan Kang never expected that the other party would even come to his door.

Wanyan Kang went back to the study in a restless mood, and suddenly felt that he missed Ouyang Ke even more...

After feeding Yang Tiexin and drinking the medicine, Yang Nianci could only brazenly ask the servants of the villa to take care of his father for a while, and then went back to his home in Hetang Village.Originally, a family reunion should be a good thing, but after Guo Jing escaped from marriage, she never smiled again.

Yang Nianci didn't have any special feelings for Guo Jing, but if her father asked her to marry, she was willing to marry.But Guo Jing kept saying that he was unwilling from the beginning, and even ran away with other women later.Yang Nianci cried for a whole day under the quilt, and finally stopped crying under Bao Xiruo's comfort.

The Jiangnan Six Monsters felt that they were Guo Jing's elders, but Guo Jing did such inhumane, unjust, loyal and unfilial things. He felt ashamed to continue walking with the Yang family and wanted to chase Guo Jing back, so he separated from them. gone.Before leaving, they wanted to leave money, but Yang Tiexin refused.

But at this time, Yang Tiexin's illness was not healed, and he still needed to recuperate, but after Guo Jing's anger, the root cause of the illness became more serious, but no one noticed it at the time.When they traveled all the way south and arrived in Lin'an, Yang Tiexin didn't want to go back to Niujia Village, so as not to keep thinking about the past, so he settled down in Hetang Village.

Who knew that Yang Tiexin fell ill not long after the three of them stayed here.Life is also on the shoulders of the two women. Yang Nianci once admired Bao Xiruo very much. She can endure hardships and follow her to farm with a hoe. A woman who has been pampered and pampered in the palace for nearly 20 years can do this. This level is definitely admirable.

However, Bao Xiruo is sometimes too naive and unsophisticated. She raises chickens, ducks, rabbits, dogs, and all the injured or lost animals she can find.

At first Yang Nianci was happy, because these were all money, and even if he didn't sell it, it could still nourish Yang Tiexin's body.But who knows, Bao Xiruo is not allowed to eat a single chicken or duck, and he is not allowed to pick up the eggs laid by chickens and ducks, because those are chickens and ducks, and the result is a waste of food and a group of ancestors.

She secretly took the eggs, sold the poultry, and returned in exchange for rice, but when she came back, she faced her father's reprimand and Bao Xiruo's tears.So she never did that again, and her father and mother were naturally happy—what they both like most is sitting together and looking at the small animals in the yard, which once made Yang Nianci feel so beautiful—but The family is getting poorer and poorer.

This year, Yang Tiexin, who still couldn't wait for the Six Devils of the South of the Yangtze River to find Guo Jing, had been insisting on letting Yang Nianci marry Guo Jing as a brother, finally let go, because Yang Nianci was too old.They found a matchmaker and wanted to marry Yang Nianci. It is impossible to be rich and powerful, but at least they need a well-off family with a lot of money.At that time Yang Nianci was happy, not because she was getting married, but because she was finally able to leave this family.

But who knew after asking around, only one old widower was willing to marry.Yang Tiexin felt that he had been greatly insulted, so he questioned the matchmaker, and the matchmaker simply explained the matter clearly.

Yang Tiexin thinks that his daughter is good in every way, but Yang Nianci is only handsome enough, but she is too old, let alone a girl at her age, even a young man who is "hardworking" has become the father of two or three sons.Besides, she is not good at housekeeping, look at what Yang's family looks like, raising chickens and ducks for nothing, it is a big joke for anyone not to treat their family as crazy.The most important thing is that their family used to be a performer, and few people thought that Yang Nianci was still a big girl.

Of course Yang Tiexin beat the matchmaker out. The matchmaker put her hips on her hips and cursed outside the gate of their house.But when I came back and lay down on the bed, the old illness relapsed.And because of Yang Tiexin's illness, plus what the matchmaker said - she raised the chickens and ducks, she was just kind-hearted, I don't understand why outsiders said it so harshly - Bao Xiruo cried for two days and fell ill.

In fact, it was Yang Nianci who wanted to be sick more, and even died of illness, but she had to serve the two of them and tried her best to treat them. That's why she went to Changfeng Villa, the richest nearby, to rob the rich and help the poor .

All the way towards the house in Hetang Village, Yang Nianci had two snacks in his arms, which he secretly brought back to give to Bao Xiruo.On the way, she saw a group of carriages heading towards Changfeng Villa, the curtain of one of the carriages was lifted, and Bao Xiruo saw that it was the young man who gave her money yesterday, and she felt a little hot in her heart.

She really hoped that the other party really had unreasonable thoughts about her, let alone a regular wife, even a maid, she was willing to do it.But she knew that this was her father's self-righteousness...

After the convoy left, Yang Nianci continued towards Hetang Village.
