Chapter Eighty-Nine
With the arrest and death of the intermediate, Huguan County, which was originally tense, gradually returned to its usual order. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Early in the morning, a grain shop in the south of the city opened its door, and in a few moments, a young man of about twenty-five or sixteen years old, dressed in a new fine linen coat and wrapped in a soap-colored scarf, had an ordinary face, but he had done a very good job.
In this kind of world, food is gold, and it is the guarantee of life. People who can open a granary all have a strong background and a tough backstage, and it is always wrong to be good friends with each other. Therefore, when this person walked all the way over, the people he met would generally greet him with a very kind attitude and very warmly.
This young shopkeeper of the grain farm, obviously very unbelievable, saw that when he met a slightly larger store, a little more financially strong shopkeeper greeted him, he gently bowed his head, the right to return the salute, and when he met others, he raised his chin high, looking like he ignored it. After he left, some people who touched a cold nail or couldn't see his virtue cursed: "It's just that a relative who is 108,000 miles away has gained power and opened a small grain farm, and he can't see us people in his eyes...... What the hell! ”
"You...... You dare to say this, if it gets out...... But don't you want your life? ”
Hearing the advice of others, the first person who cursed the shopkeeper of the grain farm, who was originally only three points of anger, turned into seven points, and almost shouted loudly: "How about saying a few words? Could it be that he can still work as a servant and put us in prison? ”
"In prison? Why don't you have this ability? Do you know who his relatives are? Saying it scares you to death! This Boss Jiang is none other than the brother-in-law of our county master! ”
The words were mysterious, and people were shocked into a cold sweat, but they didn't know that there was a person leaning against the corner of the wall who sneered silently, and then turned his head sideways, looked at the clan brother who was following him, and said with a little dissatisfaction: "The brother-in-law of the county master!" Sounds like a majestic thing. ”
When he heard the people's talk, Xu Li secretly said in his heart, thinking about how to completely round this topic.
Those who are officials with ability are a little witty, and when Xu Pan spoke, Xu Li already had a bitter face, drooped his head, and said listlessly: "The three brothers of Xiaguan's wife are all registered with the prince, and no one comes to Huguan with Xiaguan, this person ...... I don't know if it's a cheap relative who has a few stubbles......"
Although Xu Pan didn't have too deep thoughts, he was not the object of casual fooling, if it weren't for Xu Li's attitude, he wouldn't put the grain shopkeeper Jiang Qi to the last, and he had to wait for the incident to calm down to outsiders, and the other party's vigilance was also relaxed, and then he started to arrest people. So when he heard Xu Li say this, he sneered, and Fang said casually: "Cheap relatives who have turned seventy or eighty bends, you dare to use them casually?" If the other party really wants to get some poison in the ritual, what life do you have? ”
Although his words were not euphemistic at all, they were said very ruthlessly, but Xu Li was not half annoyed.
After all, thinking of the scene that Xu Pan said, even Xu Li had palpitations.
People in this era, once developed, the first thing that comes to mind is to buy land. In their opinion, the purchase of land is to strengthen the foundation, which is enough to pass on to their children and grandchildren, even if Jiuquan goes down to meet the ancestors and ancestors, it is also a very glorious thing, and Xu Li is no exception.
He has been the county magistrate of Huguan County for so many years, and the fields and manors under his name have increased a lot, and the grain has been piled up so much that he can't eat it at all, so he has to divide a small part to make a grain village and revitalize the money in his hands. The brothers of him and his wife Jiang are all idle, lazy and hard-working, and their faces are still thick, and they can't get any goods on the table, if they let them take care of their own grange and shop, even if the output is higher and higher year by year, the harvest will only be less and less year by year.
In terms of a small family, Xu Li's family background is obviously quite rich, and a little leakage from his fingers is enough to support himself and his wife's brothers. But this does not mean that he is the wronged leader, and will generously give away his money for nothing, and raise his brother's heart to grow bigger and bigger. Just when the two husbands and wives were distressed, an elderly woman took her young son to the Jiang family, claiming that the Jiang family married to the eleventh aunt of Changshan County, the husband died, the clansmen deceived their orphans and widows, first encroached on the land, and then planned to arrange a bad marriage for his son Luo Qi, Luo Qi resisted, but was detained on the head by the elders of the clan for "rude crimes" and other crimes, expelled from the clan, the future was broken, not to mention, and there was no place to stay. Fortunately, when they were rejected by the Jiang family, many relatives showed compassion and pointed out that one of the girls in their family who had the best mix had become an official wife, and asked them to come to the Jiang family. Jiang saw the devastated Luo Qi, oh no, it should be that although Jiang Qi has a strange personality, he is a good hand at financial management, so he made him the shopkeeper of his own grain farm.
After listening to Xu Li's explanation, Xu Pan pondered for a long time before asking, "Your wife, don't even know your aunt?" ”
When Xu Li heard this, the wry smile he originally pretended to be true this time: "Duwei's family is sparsely populated, and I don't know, the weaker the family, the more the whole clan must be grouped." said that it was an aunt, but it was actually traced back to three generations, regardless of the distance of relatives, the ranking was completely arranged according to the generation. Such a relative, it would be good to see two or three times a year, seeing similar eyebrows and eyes, and hearing that the other party could tell a few things about his parents, he felt that eighty percent would not be bad, who would have thought that ......" Speaking of this, he shook his head again and again, and couldn't even smile bitterly.
"It's so easy to get in......" Xu Pan frowned slightly, and said without worry, "In this way, who can still trust?" ”
He muttered to himself, but he didn't think there was anything, but he scared Xu Li into a cold sweat, for fear that Xu Pan would say that he was not strict with his subordinates, so he told Xu Ze to let the position of the Taishou of Huguan be replaced. Fortunately, Xu Pan said that he didn't think about this aspect, but just made up his mind that he must capture Jiang Qi alive.
At the same time, Huguan barracks.
Xu Hui put down the teacup in his hand and asked Ah Yuan, who had just come out of the cell, slowly: "Jiang, the mother of Jiangqi, still insist on her own set of rhetoric?" ”
"Back to the girl, she still hasn't changed her statement." Ah Yuan said respectfully, "After her son was beaten by the clansmen, his injuries were too serious to survive a night. She was grief-stricken, she wanted to leave with her son, but she met the current Jiang Qi to come to spend the night, claiming to have no father and no mother, alone, feeling Jiang's motherly feelings, wanting to recognize her as a mother, and Dai Luo Qi Chenghuan kneeled. ”
When Xu Hui heard this, he evoked a look of sarcasm, and said indifferently: "The son has just died, and there is a capable and filial godson, she doesn't think it's strange?" ”
Her question was too sharp and too harsh, from Ah Yuan to Ah Huan, no one dared to take her sentence.
Fortunately, Xu Hui didn't want their answers, but just thoughtfully: "I heard that the Jiang family didn't read the book, and I didn't notice the abnormality in it, but it's not strange, even if I noticed it, even if I noticed it, ......" Speaking of this, she showed a soft, but extremely sad smile, and didn't speak for a long time.
Even if the Jiang family vaguely guessed something wrong, and knew that the cheap son was using his identity and what he planned to do, and it was even related to the death of his own son, so what? The dead are gone, but the living still have to live, don't they?
When Xu Hui was thinking, the maids had always been silent, and it wasn't until they saw her pick up the teacup again that Ah Yuan stepped forward and asked softly, "Girl, do you want to interrogate ...... again?"
"If you ask again, you can't ask anything, save some energy to deal with Jiangqi!" Knowing who the problem is, he will go all out to deal with whom, this is Xu Hui's principle, but he is not interested in repeatedly poking a young man who has lost his husband, and finally pulled his son up, just because of her identity, her son sacrificed the scar of the poor mother under the conspiracy of others. Therefore, Xu Hui pondered for a moment and instructed Ah Yuan, "After Jiang Qi explains who his master is, you go and inform the Jiang family, so that she will not lose her desire to survive and live well." I will divide a few acres of heaven and earth, and choose an orphan with good character to pass on to her, so that she and her son will not be missing a bowl of rice after a hundred years, and will definitely let her live, and watch carefully, how miserable the person who harmed her son will end up. ”
This order is very different from Xu Hui's usual style of acting, Yi Ayuan was stunned for a moment before he cautiously asked: "Girl, don't you ......?"
Xu Hui knew what A-Yuan meant, so he shook his head lightly, and said: "The people who have bad intentions about us will naturally be annihilated one by one mercilessly, but for the poor people who suffer because of us and can't make any waves, don't do it so desperately." If my grandfather had known, he would have agreed with me. ”
It is true that they want to fight for the world, but they can't fight for the world and completely wear out human nature. Destroying the enemy on the battlefield and defeating the enemy in politics must be ruthless, because this is a matter of retreating if you do not advance, cutting the grass without eradicating the roots, and the spring breeze blows and grows again, but it can be ...... to civilians If you lose your basic humanity for the sake of great causes, it is impossible to win the world.
"Reverence and compassion last forever." Thinking of this, Xu Hui said with a little emotion, "Even if it is compared with future killings, a small act of kindness is just a drop in the bucket, and it is better than nothing." ”
If you change someone here, you will feel that Xu Hui is a woman after all, and her heart is still a little soft, not decisive enough, but Ah Yuan and others have always taken Xu Hui's will as their own will, and when they heard Xu Hui say this, they felt that she was very reasonable, and hurriedly responded and did it, only Ah Shuang paused, as if he struggled for a moment, and then: "Girl, you said, Jiang Qi he...... Who is it? (To be continued.) )
