"Jiao Niang is a well-known singer in Yidu Baihua Pavilion, she has always been a performer and does not sell herself, and some time ago she was suddenly ransomed at a high price, and left the land of fireworks, but she has no whereabouts. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info I was going to go to his house to see, but I didn't expect to find someone in the house, and the little guy in the same company recognized that the person was the famous Jiao Niang, I interrogated again and again, and I found out about it. ”

Pauling briefly explained the situation.

"You coveted the money in the village to redeem your mother?" Mu Yi asked.

"Yes". Seeing that the matter had been revealed, Shopkeeper Li sighed lightly and began to recall the past.

"Back then, my parents and I went to Qucheng to hide from revenge. In those days, for fear of being discovered by the enemy, he has been living cautiously. Later, seeing that the wind was quieter, I found a job in Jia's house and settled down in Qucheng with my parents. ”

"In the past few years, although I am not rich, I am also at ease and stable. I guess the enemy has stopped looking for us. Later, when my parents saw that I was also old, they asked someone to find me a family affair. It didn't take long for me to become a parent, and soon, I even had a child. But just when I thought I could live a good life, my wife left me in childbirth, and the child did not survive, and my mother suffered a lot of blows, and died within a few months. My father and I were left in the house, and a good family was scattered like this, serving my father, and after sending my father up the mountain, I planned to resign from the shopkeeper and leave the sad place of Qucheng. ”

"In the past few years, your family has suddenly changed, and my father wants you to come to Yidu to manage the newly opened money bank, just thinking that if you leave Qucheng, you will gradually forget these past events, but you ......" Miaoren said, and he couldn't help but redden, so long man, betrayal when he said betrayal, his heart was cold.

When the shopkeeper Li saw Miaoren like this, he broke free of the two people who had been embedded in his hand, leaned over and kowtowed heavily to Miaoren, "I know very well that I have failed to live up to the trust of the master, Miss for so many years, it is my ingratitude, and it is my despicable and obscene." ”

Seeing this, Mu Yi also felt that there should be another hidden secret, otherwise why would such a master-servant friendship turn his face and deny it, "You go on, what about the rest of the matter?" ”

"Ugh." Shopkeeper Li sighed deeply and continued to reminisce about the past.

"Three years ago, I was ordered to come to Yidu to take care of the money village, at first the business was lighter, but when I first arrived, it was naturally not a big problem, and I could still bear my own profits and losses. Later, something happened. ”

As he spoke, the story went back to three years ago.

On this day, Qian Zhuang had just been locked, and everyone was going back to the house to rest, and the beard who had not been here for a long time shouted at everyone to go to Baihualou to see this singer of Manyidu, and the little girl was aroused by the amazing beauty depicted in the mouth of the beard, but he also knew his worth, and only two of them followed.

When Shopkeeper Li came back, he knew about it and said that his beard was making a fuss.

Maybe he couldn't even get in the door, and he whimsically wanted to eat swan meat, and after a few gossips, he rested early.

When they came back, it was still late at night, and they quietly washed and lay down.

When I went to work the next day, I started talking about what I had seen and heard last night with other people who didn't go.

"Oh, you didn't go yesterday, there were so many people, they all had to crush the stone slab at the door."

"Isn't it just a singing song, isn't it?"

"That's because you didn't go, oops, that voice, the heart of the person who sang was numb, but it was exciting."

"You kid, are you thinking about that?" A few people joked about their beards.

The beard was also grinning, laughing with them, "Of course I thought about it, or how to say it, the peony flower will die, and it will be a ghost and a charm." It's a pity that my parents didn't give me a family property of 1,800, otherwise, I would have slept with her sooner or later. ”

"Yo, you kid, and this thief's heart? Go over the wall, I'm afraid you won't dare, look at your bear-like. A little guy coaxed, and everyone laughed at him.

"Hmph, in this world, there is nothing I don't dare to do with my beard, you wait, I'll go to Baihua Pavilion tonight and taste her."

"Yo, yo, it's still hard, okay, I'll make a bet with you, if you really dare to go, I'll give you all this month's wages."

"Okay, you wait, there will be a time for you to cry."

After a few random chats, the crowd dispersed, and at night, the beard really didn't appear, and when it was time to sleep, there was no one in sight.

"Well, you say, isn't this beard really gone?"

"Bah, he must not have the face to come back. This Baihua Pavilion is so easy to enter, there is no one thousand taels of dots, I am afraid that I can't see the face, and it is still romantic. ”

"I think it's the same, maybe I want to hide there."

"Haha, okay, go to sleep, I'll be ashamed of him tomorrow."

When Shopkeeper Li came to inspect the room, they said that the beard was in the thatched house, and they didn't suspect it, and everyone fell asleep at night.

"Knock knock, open the door, where is the death of the steward? Open the door. ”

Suddenly, a series of loud and rapid knocks on the door woke everyone up.

Erxi got up and went to open the door, but before his eyes were fully opened, he was vigorously pushed to the ground, and six or seven strong men came in, shouting loudly to talk to the master.

Shopkeeper Li, and all the small servants came out of their respective rooms when they heard the voice, "What's the matter, it's a big night, is there a royal law?" ”

When the visitor saw that Shopkeeper Li came out of a room alone, he asked, "You are the one in charge?" ”

"I am, say, what's the matter."

"You guys have a mustache in their plan, right?"

"Yes, what's wrong with him."

"He climbed into our Baihua Pavilion in the middle of the night, touched the courtyard door, and was caught by the guards in the courtyard, and shouted to see Jiao Niang. I bash, he's worthy. ”

"Erxi!"

"Alas"

"Didn't you say that the beard went to the hut?"

Seeing that the matter couldn't be stopped, he told the story of the bet made by a few people for a hundred days.

"Confused, he has no brains, and you guys are also making a fuss, so I'll clean up and wait. Erxi, take a few guys and follow me to Baihua Pavilion. ”

In the Hundred Flowers Pavilion, the beard was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face, lying on the ground.

With his hands tied behind his back, a rag stuffed in his mouth, chirping and shouting, a pair of dark blue eyes stared at the old bustard sitting in front of the table, the old bustard was not idle, and he was scolding with melon seeds in his mouth.

"I don't look at you yourself, you can't get in at the main gate, you go over the wall, and you are ashamed to say that you want Jiao Niang to accompany you, you are really a dead little beast."

"Woo woo woo woo ......" Beard struggled to speak, but was kicked again by the guards around him.

"Look at you like that, reincarnate in the next life and choose someone well, I don't have the money to learn any uncle, and my tone is not small." The old bustard scolded again.

Shopkeeper Li saw this scene when he entered the door, and hurriedly said, "Stop, I have something to say." ”

"Yo, here's the master." The old bustard shouted when he saw the shopkeeper Li who made a sound.

"Mother Liu, I have a general understanding of the ins and outs of the matter, this kid is bold, Xiao wants to be the top card here, you scolded and scolded, and beat him, just let him go, I will definitely discipline him well when I go back." After speaking, he waved towards the old bustard.

"Hmph, it's so simple to let him go, so will I still be able to do business in the future? Everyone wants to break in, and you still see that the mouth of the sky is not clean, is that Jiao Niang worthy of you? ”

"Isn't she just a bitch? What are you pretending to be high? Erxi muttered.

"What do you say? Be careful I tear your mouth apart. The old bustard pointed his ears and scolded loudly.

The frightened Erxi shrank his neck and hid behind Shopkeeper Li.

"Okay, you say, on what terms can I take him away?"

Shopkeeper Li, who has been in the mall all the year round, naturally saw that the reason why the bustard didn't let go was asking for money, so he simply asked her directly.

The old bustard was not ambiguous, and knew when the price was most appropriate, "Well, I'm not that unreasonable person, just three hundred taels, count me unlucky." ”

"Three hundred taels? Mother Liu, this is sitting on the ground. Shopkeeper Li said with a calm face.

"I see that you are also a decent person, and you speak according to my wishes, so I reluctantly said this price, you let go and ask, when did my mother Liu be polite to people."

"And what if I don't give it?"

"I'll send him to the official and let him stay in prison for the rest of his life."

"Hmph, Mother Liu, this is smashing the signboard by herself, if this matter is stabbed to the government today, I guarantee that tomorrow all the dignitaries and nobles in Yidu will know about your girl being molested, and see if this daughter can keep her worth when she is in the capital."

"You" Mother Liu's eyes purred, this is indeed the case.

Then I will bury him alive and see who dares to disrespect the girl of my Baihua Pavilion in the future." ”

"Okay, I went out from here today, I can't take him away, tomorrow I will let people release the news, saying that you Baihua Pavilion kills people and sets fires, and does all kinds of evil, see if you want this business or not?"

"Hmph, young man, don't be embarrassed, my Baihua Pavilion can gain a foothold in this Yidu, and there are people behind it. Come on, detain them for me. None of them are to be let go. ”

"Slow, Mother Liu, I haven't finished my words yet, so I'm in a hurry, when I came out, but I told it, I haven't gone back yet, so I quickly sent someone back to Qucheng, and Mother Liu doesn't want to make a big deal about it."

"Yo, keep your hands behind. I think my mother Liu has spent most of her life in this land of wind and moon, am I scared? ”

"Then you can try, Fangzheng and I have a cheap life, but it is not as valuable as Liu's mother's signboard."

"You ......" doesn't look like he's lying, if this thing really gets out, then this business ......

Seeing the hesitation in Liu's mother's eyes, Shopkeeper Li took the opportunity to speak.

"Mother Liu, we are new to the city and don't want to make trouble for everyone. Today's matter, it's true that my housekeeper is not strict, here is not for you first, Jiao Niang, if it is convenient, I will also accompany a girl, scaring people. But you also know that I am just the shopkeeper of the money village, three hundred taels, I really can't take it, you have a lot of adults, just let that kid go, just give Jiao Niang a lot of virtue, out of this door, no one will say this, you continue to do business, that endless wealth will come. ”

"Hmph, that's it, when I do a good deed today, one hundred taels, I will send it tomorrow, and I will pay the money with one hand and the other hand."

"Okay, then I'll go back and make up. That ......"

"I know what you're trying to say, the firewood room is not a place to swallow people's lives."

Speaking of this, Shopkeeper Li was also relieved, glanced at his beard, gave him a reassuring look, and left with someone.
