"What are you afraid of, there is no one else here, no one will see it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info" Li Ping'an grinned and went to catch her hand again.

Xiaoqing looked left and right, and when he saw that there was no one around, he let him hold his hand with confidence.

Gently kneading his soft little hands, Li Ping'an's heart was full of tenderness: "Xiaoqing, I haven't seen you at both ends, are you okay?"

Xiaoqing lowered her head and didn't answer for a long time.

Li Ping'an was anxious, reached out to lift her chin, and carefully observed her face in the bright moonlight. But I saw that the girl's fair cheeks were a little red and swollen.

"That tigress hit you again?" said with anger and pity in her voice.

A teardrop rolled down from his eyes, burning Li Ping'an's heart. He carefully stretched out his fingers to gently wipe away the teardrop, and reached out to press her head into his arms: "It's all my fault, it's me who is useless." Xiaoqing, if you wait another year, I will definitely scrape together enough money for your redemption. The executive's family treated me very well, and I begged him to speak in front of the master for the two of us. When we are both redeemed, we will never stay in this cannibalistic place again. We either went out to do a small business, or went to the countryside to buy a few acres of land, and the two of us lived happily. Do you think it's okay?"

"Good, good. Brother Ping'an, you have to talk about it. My father and mother died early, and my brother and sister-in-law didn't treat me closely, so I have only one relative left in this world. Xiaoqing's voice choked up.

"Don't worry, I'll be the talker. Li Ping'an gently patted her shoulder and comforted.

The two were snuggling up to each other when they suddenly heard a knock on the door. Li Ping'an hurriedly let go of Xiaoqing, asked her to hide it aside, and tidied up her clothes again before stepping forward to open the door.

I saw a middle-aged man standing outside the gate, holding a bag of things in his hand, and smiling kindly at himself: "This little brother, my name is Tang Dashan, I have something to ask to see your master, please report it." ”

Tang Dashan, who is it, I don't know.

Li Ping'an shook his head and said, "The master has already rested at this hour, you can come back tomorrow." "The door is about to close.

The person who came hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him, and said, "Little brother, you may not know me, I am Tang Yun's father, and I am your master's in-laws, I do have something important to find your master, please report it." ”

"Oh, it turned out to be the 'in-laws' master. Master Tang, wait a minute, I'll report it right away. With that, he closed the door.

"The dog's eyes look at what is low on people. Tang Dashan saw that he didn't invite himself in, but closed the door and scolded in a hateful whisper.

Seeing the door closed, Xiaoqing hurriedly walked out and asked in a low voice, "How did I hear that person said that he was Tang Gongzi's father, and he had something important to find the master?"

"Exactly, coming here so late is probably a big deal. I have to go in and report, Xiaoqing, you go back first, and I'll look for you tomorrow. Li Ping'an said.

Xiaoqing hurriedly agreed, and hurried back to report the news to the young lady.

As soon as Gao Lianlian heard that Tang Yun's father was coming, she immediately got up and was about to go to the front yard to have a look.

"Miss, wait. Xiaoqing hurriedly stopped her, "It's not appropriate for you to go to the front yard at this hour, why don't Miss go to the woman's yard first and wait for the news." ”

When Gao Lianlian heard this, she felt that it made sense, and said anxiously: "Then we will go to our mother's yard and wait now." ”

"Miss, you haven't dressed up yet. Xiaoqing said helplessly.

"Then you don't hurry, it's rubbing, isn't the skin itchy again? Gao Lianlian said angrily.

Xiaoqing swallowed her anger, dressed her with her hands and feet, and then held the lantern in her left hand and supported her with her right hand, and walked quickly to Mrs. Gao's courtyard.

In the front yard, Tang Dashan, under the guidance of the executive's family, met Gao Renhe in the main hall, and after presenting the gift, he couldn't wait to explain his intention.

When Gao Renhe heard this, his face became grim. He attached great importance to this young man who was admitted to Xiucai at a young age, so he recruited him as his son-in-law. Thinking about cultivating him well, maybe he can earn a reputation and get an official position. He has no son, and his nephew is a gentleman who has achieved nothing, maybe the prosperity of the Gao family in the future will depend on this son-in-law.

Now that I heard that he was missing, I was also very anxious, and hurriedly ordered the executive's family to bring someone to find him.

Then he comforted Tang Dashan and said, "In-laws, don't worry. I'll send someone to look for it, but it's night, and we won't hear until tomorrow morning. Why don't I send someone to send you back first, and then send someone to inform you when I find it tomorrow. ”

Although Tang Dashan was in a hurry, he couldn't, so he had to agree.

Gao Renhe returned to the inner courtyard, only to find his daughter talking to his wife in the room.

"Daddy, you're back. Gao Lianlian hurriedly stood up and stepped forward to salute.

"Lianlian, why haven't you slept so late?" Gao Renhe sat down on the chair, took the tea handed over by the girl, took a sip, and asked.

"Dad, I'll come over to say hello to my mother. I heard that there are guests in front of you?" Gao Lianlian asked cautiously with a look on his face.

"Oh, yes. Gao Renhe said casually, but did not say anything more.

Gao Lianlian couldn't hold her breath, plucked up her courage and asked, "Dad, I heard that Uncle Tang is here, is there something wrong?"

Gao Renhe sank his face: "Who is chewing the root of the tongue in the ear of the young lady and slapping my mouth!"

At night, Xiaoqing lay on the bed, her face was hot and painful, and her hatred for the Gao family was even worse.

"As a big girl next to the master, she must persuade the master to have wrong words and deeds, and she can't instigate the master to do words and deeds that do not conform to the rules. These are the words of Gao Renhe when he taught her a lesson.

"Xiaoqing, don't blame me for not interceding for you, Daddy is angry, if I plead, it will only add fuel to the fire, so I have to let you replace you. This was Gao Lianlian's explanation to her afterwards.

Obviously, he was acting on orders, but he was beaten for no reason. Brother Ping'an, when will such a day be a head?Xiaoqing thought with tears in her eyes. She didn't know that her brother Ping'an was also beaten because of this.

At the same time, this fight planted a seed of hatred in the hearts of the two of them, and this seed may one day give birth to sprouts and even grow in the future.

Although, what happened tonight is just an inconspicuous wave in this incident, and it can't make a wave. However, one day in the future, it caused a storm, and the fate of many people was changed because of it.

A spark can start a prairie fire. An inconspicuous spark can also cause a fire that cannot be extinguished.

On the morning of the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, the Lin family, who couldn't wait for an explanation, couldn't hold their breath anymore and hurriedly came to Tang's house, but they were surprised to see Tang Dashan and his wife with sad faces. Knowing that Tang Yun was missing, her first thought was: she was hiding, afraid that someone would settle accounts with him.

Tang Dashan endured his anxiety and explained to her in a good voice, saying that he had asked his in-laws to look for him.

In-laws, isn't that the tall old man, the Lin family immediately fell silent, and the daughter's marriage may still fall on this tall old man.

At noon, the housekeeper of the Gao Mansion came to Tang's house in person, but brought bad news: all the places in the town had been searched, but they still couldn't find it.

Tang Dashan and his wife were very anxious, and Li began to wipe away tears.

"The lord suggested that he should report to the official and let the government help find it. I don't know what you think?" said the butler.

"I can't report to the official!" Li blurted out, looking panicked.

The butler looked at her suspiciously. Tang Dashan hurriedly covered up: "The insiders just think that this is a trivial matter, and the government may not accept it, so there is no need to trouble them." ”

As for the government, Tang Gongzi is a talented man and the future son-in-law of the master, and the county officials should help find him in the face of the master, so there is no need to worry about this. ”

"This ......," Tang Dashan hesitated.

"Could it be that you have something to hide?" the butler was even more strange when he saw them hesitate.

"Huh? No. Tang Dashan hurriedly denied it, and then said with a smile on his face: "Then according to what the in-laws said, ask the government to help find it." ”

After all, his son's life is important, and he can't take care of it so much.

Lin lowered his head to the side, his eyes rolling, not knowing what he was thinking.

After the executive's family said goodbye, Lin also had to say goodbye and leave, saying that he didn't worry about his daughter at home, Tang Dashan and his wife were so confused that they didn't have time to care about her, so they responded indiscriminately.

On the way back, the executives kept thinking in their hearts: This Tang Dashan couple had a suspicious attitude, and when they heard that they were going to report to the official, they looked panicked, could it be that Tang Yun's disappearance involved something illegal?

As he was pondering, he suddenly heard a shout from the car window: "Executives, executives, please stop, I have something to say." ”

He lifted the curtains and saw a woman panting after him, a little familiar. He thought for a moment, wasn't this the woman he had seen in the Tang family. She chased after her, there must be something.

Seeing that the carriage had stopped, Lin hurriedly approached and said with a sneer: "Senior executive, I have a suggestion about finding Tang Yun. As far as I know, Tang Yun has a lot of contacts with Young Master Gao Yi, you might as well ask him, maybe there will be clues. ”

"Who are you? Why did you tell me about it? Why didn't you just say it. The executive asked suspiciously.

"I, it's not convenient to say it for the time being, but you'll know later. I was inconvenient to say it just now, but you will understand later. Lin dropped two vague words and left, and the executives became more and more puzzled, always feeling that these people were inexplicable.

So when he returned to Gaofu, he told the lord 1510.

Gao Renhe frowned after hearing this, and was puzzled in his heart, and ordered: "You go to the second master's house to invite the young master." ”

The Gao family is thin, and there is only one young master, and that is Gao Yi. As the only man, he has been spoiled and loved since he was a child, especially the old lady, who hurts like an eyeball, so he has developed a temperament that is now gentle. You can't study, you can't do business, you can't do anything but eat, drink and have fun. Gao Renhe had a headache when he thought of this nephew, but he was not his own child, and he couldn't discipline him strictly.

That's why he cares so much about Tang Yun's son-in-law, just hoping that in the future, maybe he will become an official and can drive the development of the Gao family.

Gao Yi and Tang Yun have dealings, which is not difficult to understand, and the two are likely to be related in the future. But listening to the woman's meaning, it seemed that Gao Yi knew the inside story of Tang Yun's disappearance.

After Gao Yi came, he was very surprised to hear that Tang Yun was missing. Since I went home with Bai yesterday, in order to make her happy, I have been at home all day. Before he could go to Tang Yun to settle accounts, he didn't expect him to disappear.

Gao Renhe told him the seriousness of the matter seriously, Gao Yi didn't dare to hide it, and told the matter and the truth:

It turned out that three days ago, Tang Yun asked him for a drink, and he got drunk during the banquet, muttering that Lin Xiaohan, the girl who was originally married to him, fell in love with Han Guining, the owner of the guest house. also said that the two had a private relationship, and they would have a private meeting somewhere on the day of the Lantern Festival. If it weren't for the fear of being sorry for Gao Lianlian, he really wanted to pretend to be Han Guining, disturb the good things of the two of them, and so on.

At that time, he was also drunk, and shouted to help him stir up this matter, so that the dog man and woman could not be satisfied. Tang Yun was overjoyed when he heard this, so he taught him how to do it in order to achieve his goal. As a result, those things happened after I went that day......

After Gao Yi finished speaking, he looked at the uncle with a weak face, for fear that he would be lectured by him again as usual.

Gao Renhe did not teach him a lesson, but pondered. For a man with a lot of experience, he knew that only a fool like his nephew would be fooled. Tang Yun was obviously drunk at that time, and deliberately said those words. And he also deceived Gao Yi and the woman named Shi Mei at the same time, what purpose did he have?

Lin Xiaohan, Han Guining, Shi Mei and the woman, what role did they play in this incident. And Tang Dashan and his wife, what are they hiding?

Gao Renhe couldn't understand it, and he didn't bother to guess. directly instructed the housekeeper to invite Tang Dashan and his wife.

"If you want to find your son, then tell me everything you know, and don't take me for a fool. If there is any more concealment, please forgive me for not being able to do anything, and you can figure it out for yourselves. ”

Gao Renhe said unceremoniously with a straight face, very dissatisfied with the concealment of Tang Dashan and his wife in his heart.

"This ...... We're not hiding anything, we're telling the truth. Tang Dashan pretended to be calm.

"Butler, send-off. Gao Renhe stood up and commanded with a straight face.

"Don't don't, my lord, you dissipate your anger, I said. Only I know about this, and neither does his father. Li hurriedly stood up to dissuade him.

Gao Renhe "hummed" and sat down again.

Li couldn't, so she had to tell what she knew, even what Lin told her.

Gao Renhe's first reaction when he heard it was not angry, but praised: I really can't see that a person who used to be quite simple has become so thoughtful, one plan after another, in order to achieve his own goals, he counted everyone into it. If such a person is used in business or officialdom, it is really promising.

Seeing that he was silent, Tang Dashan and his wife were uneasy, and the Li family pleaded: "My lord, don't be angry, my son is young, and he is fascinated for a while, so he did such a thing." He was just angry, but he actually liked Miss Gao very much. ”

"Yes, in-laws, as the saying goes, 'people are not romantic', he also went astray for a while, and his in-laws will teach him more in the future, and he will definitely listen to you in the future. ”

When Gao Renhe heard this, his heart turned, he slapped the table suddenly, and said angrily: "Your Tang family is too deceitful, where are you putting my daughter in this way, and where are you putting the face of my Gao family? Is it true that the eldest lady of my Gao family is not as good as a village girl in the countryside? If he has to be that Lin Xiaohan, why did you withdraw from your relatives in the first place, and why did you go to our house to ask for relatives? Now that something has happened, I think of my Gao family. You really have the face to come to me, and at first you tried to hide the deception, so that we found this morning from last night. I don't care about this matter, you can go to whoever you like!"

Li Shi was frightened by him slapping the table, and when he heard him say that he didn't care about it, he panicked in his heart, and couldn't care so much anymore, so he knelt down with a "plop" and pleaded: "Master of the family, you can't ignore it, no matter what, he is also your future son-in-law, our two families are married, and the neighbors know it." You forgive him this time, and when you get him back, you can teach him a lesson, and we will never say a word. ”

Gao Renhe listened to Li's plea but was unmoved: "Son-in-law, our Gao family does not have such a son-in-law!

Tang Dashan saw his wife kneeling and pleading, Gao Renhe still didn't let go, and said that he wanted to withdraw from his family, and his heart was on fire, but he didn't dare to turn his face with him, for fear that he would really let go.

At that moment, he pulled Li up, bowed deeply to Gao Renhe and said, "My family, it was my son's fault, and you should be angry." But the matter has come to this point, and it doesn't help to be angry, it's still important to find someone. As for your reluctance, I think you are also angry for a while, because if you quit your family, it will also damage Ling Ai's reputation, and it will not be easy to decide on a family affair in the future. ”

"Hahaha......" Gao Renhe laughed out loud as if he had heard some funny joke, and only then did he stare at the inexplicable Tang Dashan and said: "You also think too highly of yourself, although withdrawing from your family will damage my daughter's reputation." But I can't stand my family's money, as long as I let out my words, the matchmaker must not step on the threshold of my family. When the time comes, I will recruit an honest and obedient person to be a son-in-law and inherit the family for my family. It's no better than marrying your daughter to your family for nothing. Besides, Tang Yun, this kid, is not single-minded about my daughter. In that case, I won't force him. ”

Seeing Gao Renhe's resolute attitude, Li Shi panicked even more in his heart: "No, no, my son is single-minded towards Miss Gao. Before the Chinese New Year, he also made a peach wood hairpin for Miss Gao with his own hands, and in order to make the hairpin, even his hand was cut by a knife. It's true, and if you don't believe it, you can ask your daughter. He was just confused for a while, please forgive him, don't quit his family. ”

This kid, a peach hairpin bought my daughter's heart. I bought her so many beautiful and expensive jewelry, which is not as precious as this broken hairpin, Gao Renhe is not angry. But thinking of the noon, my daughter was crying bitterly in front of her, wanting to die or live, and I felt helpless in my heart. It's really a debt to him in his previous life, it's just that, since his daughter likes this kid, as long as he listens to himself, it's still very useful.
