Brother Donggong

I don't know why this Mrs. Li is looking for me. Anyway, it's not a small matter of Baozi. I sent a little girl and asked her to call Qiluo out. I told her the general idea and asked her to ask who came. what's the matter.Qi Luo asked someone to bring a bowl of hot lotus seed soup over, and sat back in the living room.The hall here is specially prepared for the female relatives to receive guests. The carvings in the hall are very soft. Opposite the Xuan window is a piece of red mandala flowers, and next to it is a small lake with carp in it.All the wooden chairs in the hall are smaller than the ones outside, and there are no armrests, and the waiters who let their women sit are also graceful and graceful.

Qi Luo personally brought the lotus seed soup to Li Niangzi with both hands, "Sister, don't be in a hurry. My husband has guests, and he won't be able to come for a while. If you have anything to say, it's the same."

Widow Li got up and blessed, "Ma'am, I didn't know at first. I always thought that Mr. Zhao was just a small businessman on the corner of the street. Apart from being kind and kind to the neighbors, he was no different. Today I went to the house , then you have real knowledge, knowing that Mr. Zhao and Mrs. Zhao are noble people."

Qi Luo smiled and said, "Sister, don't say that. My husband and I are just relying on the blessings of our ancestors to live some leisurely days. If you have anything to say, if you can help, we will definitely help."

Madam Li raised her lowered head, "Madam, please help me."

Then she told what happened on the street today, and when I heard it, it was pretty good.Dare to be honest, the old boy who collects taxes on the street is really the brother-in-law of Wen Zhan's old father-in-law.I felt three drops of cold sweat on my forehead, all falling together.Mrs. Li said that the government had already arrested the junior of the Zhou family, and the master of the Zhou family was in office in another province, and their family had already sent someone to deliver the letter, so they still don't know what to do.

Qi Luo listened, and cast a glance at me, meaning to see the good things you provoked!I'll settle the accounts for you when I come back tonight.I hurriedly bowed and apologized, but in a blink of an eye, she put on a compassionate face and said to Mrs. Li, "Sister, don't worry, this matter can't be rushed. Although my husband said that he didn't have to worry about eating boats, he couldn't offend the royal family and dignitaries. Otherwise, you go back first, and when my husband comes back, I will tell him carefully and let him think of a way?"

Mrs. Li said, "Ma'am, I know that Mr. Zhao can help me. Someone told me that he knows Prince Jia, the Third Highness."

I was taken aback.

Qi Luo blinked, still smiling, "Sister, can you tell me, who told you, does my family recognize the Third Prince?"

"It's Mr. Jun."

Qi Luo didn't know, she asked, "Mr. Jun? Which Mr. Jun?"

Mrs. Li, "Mr. Jun is Mr. Jun. He also lives on our street. He and Mr. Zhao are friends, and they often go to Mr. Zhao's shop. This time, it was also his idea. He said, If I come to beg Mr. Zhao, the one from the Zhou family..." She lowered her head again, her voice getting lower and lower, "As long as the third prince comes forward, he will be fine."

……

It was almost midnight, and I was circling on the edge of the chair, while Yin Qiluo was boiling pearl powder Dingjing soup next to it. There was a small stove and a small copper pot on it. She was stirring it bit by bit with a small wooden spoon.

I looked at her, "Lady, it's getting late, why don't you take a rest first?"

She didn't look at me either, "I'm not tired, I'll make some soup for you to calm down. You have been tired these two days, and you have done a lot of good deeds. You can save a little widow by setting up a bun shop, and you can even hit the pole to the prince. Your relatives, even brought the Third Prince over to be a good person and send kindness, how can you not be tired."

I walked around in front of her, sat on the chair, grabbed the hair with both hands, pulled a few strands out, and suddenly said to her, "Let Cui Bicheng do this! He has a lot of experience in such things as fighting against injustice and saving the little widow and her lover." Inhuman enthusiasm!

Let's go out and hide!After we got married, we haven't taken you to Ranzhuang yet.Let's go around.There are good mountains and good water, fishing and cooking shrimp, cooking wine and reading poetry, you can do anything! "

Yin Qiluo blew up this small candle-fired stove, filled out this pearl powder soup, handed it to me, and let me drink it.

She said, "Okay, whatever you say, so be it."

"But Mrs. Li has begged to come to the house, so maybe she knows your details. Are you really letting go?"

Me, "I feel evil from the beginning to the end of this matter. It is really possible that the hole was dug for me. I have to be careful. Besides, that kid from the Zhou family is also at fault. Jia Laosan is hateful and should be killed. He Those things you do can be controlled, beaten, punished, and maybe killed, but that is a matter for the government, so you have to talk about evidence. You said that he molested widows in the street, which was indecent, but the widow sued No? No, the people don’t prosecute such things, and the officials don’t correct them. Well, even if someone else sues Jia Laosan, what’s the matter with that boy Zhou? There is Shuntian Mansion and Nine Cities patrolling, if it doesn’t work, And what about the Ministry of Criminal Justice, what does he have to do with the third son of the Zhou family? Kicking people out in the street is a violation of the king's law. The government should arrest him. , is the duty.”

I drank the soup, not to mention, the taste is not bad.

"Besides, let's say that Yongjing has many dignitaries, many wives, many concubines, and many brother-in-laws. Even the uncle of the country is running all over the street, let alone other people's brother-in-law. But how can I say that this is also related to the prince, Who would provoke Wen Zhan? I don't want to get involved in this trouble. I agreed to let Cui Bicheng go and have a look, because I was afraid that the Jiang family would use lynching, because the elder brother of the ninth concubine had abolished the children of other officials and eunuchs. , This is a complaint to the prince. These days, the people under him are too disabled, either flattering slaves, or harsh bureaucrats. People who are not so disabled are ambitious. Finding someone who is delicious and caring can make Cui Bicheng It would be difficult for that silly boy to fly to the moon."

Yin Qiluo glanced at me.

I got up and laughed, "Well, I'm going to see what Lao Cui is doing, you can go to bed quickly, I will prepare tomorrow, and we will leave at noon. If the road is smooth, we can rush to Ranzhuang to eat small fish in iron pot."

When Cui Bicheng heard that he was assigned such an errand, he cried, and almost hanged himself.

I patted him on the shoulder and said, "I know that this matter will cost money, and I don't want you to spend any more money, but I can't help it. They dug a hole for me, and I don't want to just jump like this, but if I don't jump, I don't want to jump." No, if the child is really let them do it like this, I can't sleep at night, so, brother, you can do what you can and do me a favor."

After finishing speaking, I took a small cloth bag and collected some scattered silver taels from him.

He wondered, "What are you doing?"

Me, "From tomorrow, I will hide in the mountains, so that no one can find me, so as not to trouble you. I will take some Sichuan tolls, so I can hide for a few more days."

"Where are you hiding?"

"Ran Zhuang."

"How to go where?"

"Well, take Qiluo back, how can I put it, it's also my hometown."

Cui Bicheng thought for a while, and he took out a waist card, a jade on a black background, with a seal character traced in gold on it - Bi.

I looked over and over again, "What is this?"

Cui Bicheng said, "This is the token leading to the ancient king's tomb. I showed you that person last time, and you know who it is. You can enter with a waist token. No one will stop you, so go see your father." Well, it's pretty desolate for him to be there alone, if he knows, he must be very happy to see you and your mother-in-law passing by together."

I kept silent and put the waist badge in the palm of my hand, feeling cold and heavy.

My own father has always been a stranger in my heart, even a sinner, but the one I regard as my own father will eventually become a stranger.

Cui Bicheng's own father died unjustly, but their father and son still have 30 years of family happiness after all.

Why is my relationship with my relatives so thin?Father, son, wife, plus brother, among the three cardinal principles and five constant principles, none of the predestined relationships ends.

I must have owed God a lot of money in my previous life.

In this life, it has been designed to disgust me.
