Sitting by the river and waiting for the dawn, Dongfang Lin and Wuwei talked about some things before they got married. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info since leaving Beijing to go home, Dongfang Lin has never been out, his father has become more and more strict, ordering her to practice female red needles at home every day, not allowed to go to the dart game. After a few months, life became more and more difficult, but her mother took pity on her and finally persuaded her father to let her live in Kirin Villa temporarily. Grandpa's health has not been very good since the beginning of spring this year, and after the summer, he has been accompanied by Dongfang Lin every day, and it has improved. One day in July, her grandfather summoned her to his knees and talked about her marriage intentionally or unintentionally. Grandpa naturally saw it in his eyes, and after a few days, one day Dongfang Yan came, saying that grandpa specially recruited him. After nightfall, the three of them gathered in the main hall, and the old housekeeper Peng was also present, and then all the servants were dismissed, and the doors and windows were closed. Seeing that the grandfather's face was serious, the brother and sister were a little nervous, and they didn't know what important things he was going to instruct.

Speaking of this, a smile brushed Dongfang Lin's cheeks, and said to Wuwei: "Grandpa told me that no matter what happens in the future, don't embarrass me, and I can live boldly whatever kind of life I want." The face and interests of the family are important, but people can't always live for face. Life is short, you can't bury yourself for any face, what etiquette, let alone bury others for face and etiquette. ”

It turned out that the old man of the East had a plan. recruited Dongfang Yan to find out his intentions with him face to face to see if he could support his sister in the future. And Dongfang Yan really lived up to expectations, listening to his grandfather speak like this, he knew in his heart, and said that no matter what his sister's plans were in the future, he, as an elder brother, would definitely not embarrass her. Dongfang Yan said solemnly, and everyone present knew that he was a gentleman who was full of words, and there was no doubt since then. So the grandfather handed over a document that had been written long ago to the brothers and sisters, and the document said that the real estate of Qilin Villa and the surrounding real estate would be owned by Dongfang Lin in the future, and the document was also signed and stamped by Ying Tianfu Yin to testify to it. And the deed that was originally under the name of the old man in the east has long been jointed by the old housekeeper Peng and transferred to the old man's name.

Hearing this, Wuwei sighed: "Your grandfather is worthy of being a real hero. Dongfang Lin said: "Grandpa is too good to me." I am so rebellious, and in the future, I must do something to live up to his kindness to me. ”

The two chatted with the moon, time passed quickly, and before they knew it, they saw the east together. Wu Wei said, yesterday's smooth escape, all thanks to Sima Xin's help, they escaped like this, Bai Mengyang will definitely not let him go, and he must go back to see how he can rest assured. Dongfang Lin has learned about the details of Wuwei's arrival in Hangzhou last night, and his anger towards this former rival has disappeared a lot, so he decided to find an inn, settle down first, and let Wuwei go and return quickly, and be careful all the way.

Make an appointment to meet the place, Wuwei quickly returned to Hangzhou, and Dongfang Lin walked slowly on the street. The streets during the day are very different from last night, densely populated, lively shops, and vibrant in the sun, which makes people's hearts feel comfortable and open. From afar, I saw the Wang tailor shop that stole clothes yesterday, there seemed to be a few people gathered at the door, Dongfang Lin was curious, so he walked over, stood not far from the door and quietly looked, and vaguely heard someone saying that there was a thief last night, and he didn't take anything valuable, so he took a few of the most ordinary clothes, which was very strange. Dongfang Lin thought it was interesting, took two steps closer, and some people said, it's really nothing to lose a little thing, just eliminate disasters and accumulate virtue, I'm afraid that one day I will fly into trouble, like the Lin Martial Arts Hall on the next street, the old man has worked honestly all his life and has a little family business, and in a blink of an eye, the white-haired person sends the black-haired person, and he still owes a lot of debt to others, which is the sin of which life. When Dongfang Lin heard this, he secretly said in his heart, isn't it the one who heard the cry last night? I heard that it was nearby, so I asked someone to inquire and searched all the way.

Before he arrived, he saw a big white lantern hanging at the door of the door in front of him from a distance, and a group of people crowded outside the door. Dongfang Lin walked forward quickly, his head was dense, and he couldn't see anything when he stood on the periphery, only heard someone say: "Master Qian came to the door to raise debts on such a day, which is really not very kind." "Hey, people also lost a lot of money there, and if this happens, it will be a disaster for both families." "I heard that the Qian family is okay, and I probably won't embarrass Old Man Lin." "At most, I want his house." "Well, isn't that a human life? Without this house, where will the old couple go? I heard that he has a little grandson who is a few months old. ”

Dongfang Lin was half-understood, and was looking for someone to ask, but he heard someone inside: "Eh, look, Master Qian has come out." There was a sound of footsteps, and a few people came out of the door, and someone immediately said: "Master Qian, Master Lin is a good person, you can't embarrass others when they are like this, and make matters worse." "yes, yes." Many people agreed. Master Qian said: "Everyone is a little safe, a little safe, I just came to take a look, there is no other meaning, other things will be discussed later, and then discussed." With that, he lowered his head and got into a small sedan chair, urging his family to leave here quickly. The crowd of onlookers continued to talk for a while, and then they slowly dispersed, and at this time, Dongfang Lin had a chance to step forward, and saw that a lady in the neighbor's house was about to close the door and go home, so he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "This lady, please slow down, dare to ask what happened to this Lin Martial Arts Hall?" Listening to her foreign accent, the eldest lady said, "Are you passing by?" Dongfang Lin nodded and said, "I heard someone in their family crying last night, and it was really sad to cry, I don't know what kind of disaster it is." Can the eldest lady sue one or two? When the lady saw that she was a girl, and that she was born beautiful and white, she did not shy away from it, and simply took out two benches from the door, sat down and said slowly.

"This Lin Clan's martial arts hall has been open on this street for decades, Lin Laohan took over the family business from his father back then, and has been opening a museum here to accept apprentices, but there are not many people who come to learn martial arts. You said, now in peacetime, people who have a little money teach their children to read, otherwise, to learn a craft, who sends them to learn this, it is hard and tiring, and they will not find any livelihood that can make money in the future. Later, the martial arts hall couldn't survive just by accepting apprentices, so it also did some bodyguard delivery business. But his family has few people, and he can't keep any big deals, so he mostly sends some groceries, medicinal herbs, family letters, gifts, and the like to the neighboring state capitals. The eldest lady shook her head and said: "This old man Lin is honest, he can't do business, he is really a good person, and he is responsible, he doesn't accept the bigger business, even if someone comes to entrust him, he pushes it off, saying that he can't afford it." But in this way, the family is only getting poorer and poorer, and the son is unwilling. Dongfang Lin asked cautiously: "His family's funeral is his son?" The eldest lady nodded and said, "No, his son only married his daughter-in-law last year, and the child is still so young, what can I do now." "It turned out that more than a month ago, a big money family in the village outside the city came to send a sum of money to a relative's house in the north. Lin Laohan happened to go out that day, and his son received him. Where does the young man understand the importance of things, seeing that the family is unable to make ends meet, and a big business just comes, he takes it without saying a word and collects the deposit. Lin Laohan came back and scolded him for not knowing anything, but since he had done it, he could only let his son dart. Hearing this, Dongfang Lin already knew most of the time in his heart, there have been many strong people on Shandong Road since ancient times, and it must be drudgery for the bodyguards to go there. The eldest lady said: "Within a month, the young man's body was carried back. Alas, a terrible death. The eldest lady shook her head, she couldn't bear to say more.

Dongfang Lin sighed to himself, this is really called God ruthless, don't care if you are a good person or a bad person, when disaster comes, everyone is like a mustard. Thank you Auntie, got up and paced to the door of the Lin Martial Arts Hall, and saw that the door was still open, so she looked sideways and looked in, the courtyard was empty, and there was a faint cry in the back hall. Coldly, someone came to close the door, Dongfang Lin looked at it, it was a young woman dressed in plain clothes, and her eyes were red and swollen from crying. When the young woman saw that there was someone outside the door, she quickly lowered her head and fastened the door.

Leaving the Lin Martial Arts Hall, Dongfang Lin found an inn to live in, thinking about the affairs of the old Han Lin's family all day long, always feeling that something should be done, thinking about it for a long time, and finally made up his mind.

In the evening, Wuwei returned from Hangzhou. After the two met, they did nothing, and Bai Mengyang really chased after him and was furious at Sima Xin. But everyone ran away, and it was useless to get angry, so the group made a fuss in the garden for a while and went back. Listening to Sima Xin, Bai Mengyang had written a letter to ask Old Butler Peng to take back to Dongfang Mansion and ask Dongfang Master to question. It seems that this matter has to be troubled, if the Bai family is not kind, they may even sue the government. Sima Xin also said that yesterday, Fang Tongbao took advantage of the chaos of the wedding and went to the back to steal two extremely valuable antiques. Dongfang Lin was still worried that his family would suffer a lawsuit because of this, and when he heard the news, he couldn't help laughing.

After speaking, Wu Wei took out a package of things from the package, and Dongfang Lin opened it to see that it was the whole face that he had thrown in the garden yesterday. "Sima Xin said, this is originally your thing, and now you must be strapped for money, these are worth a lot of money." Wuwei said, "He also said that you will definitely not accept the money you give, it is better to let you take things as convenient yourself." Dongfang Lin snorted lightly and said, "Who wants him to give money." "And this." Wuwei handed her another thing. ”

"What is this?" Dongfang Lin took the one-foot-long, dark, and cold iron object in Wuwei's hand, looked at it carefully for a while, and said in surprise: "Fire gun? Wuwei nodded, "Fang Tongbao's newly made short fire gun, I tried it, and it is very easy to use." Dongfang Lin looked sideways and said, "He gave it to you?" Wuwei shook his head and said, "No." It was Sima Xin who asked him to give it to you. ”

"What for?" Dongfang Lin's heart was furious, "Why did you give me something for no reason?" What am I going to do here? ”

He said......" Wuwei was a little embarrassed, and paused for a while before saying: "He said, you are not strong in kung fu, and you will suffer a loss if you mix the rivers and lakes." With this, you can save your life when you meet a powerful opponent. ”

"Phew!" Dongfang Lin became angry all of a sudden, and threw the fire gun back to Wu Wei and said, "Why did he slander me so much." I don't want this stupid, stupid thing. If you think it's easy to use, you can keep it for yourself. Wuwei had expected her to be like this, so he didn't argue, and took the fire gun away.

After a while, Dongfang Lin was deflated, and talked to Wuwei about what happened to the Lin Family Martial Arts Hall that he knew during the day. After that, he said: "I think his family is so pitiful, since I have met it, I can help it." Besides, bodyguards are my job. Would you like to help me this time? Wuwei nodded without saying a word: "This is nature." Dongfang Lin seemed to want to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he changed his words: "Thank you." ”

After the meal, it was dark, and the two got up and went to the Lin Clan's martial arts hall. When he arrived at the door, Wuwei said: "We came to the door so abruptly, I don't know if people are willing to appreciate it." Dongfang Lin said: "Try it." "Reach out and knock on the knocker.

After a long time, there was the sound of footsteps, and the door was opened, and carrying the lantern was an old man in his fifties, with dark skin, long eyebrows, and a haggard complexion. Dongfang Lin said, "May I ask if you are the master of the Lin Pavilion?" The old man borrowed the light to see that it was a girl in men's clothes who spoke, and he felt strange and replied, "Exactly." What does the girl have to do? My family is having a funeral and will not accept business. With that, he bowed his head and tried to close the door. Dongfang Lin pushed the door and said, "Wait." We're not here to support darts. The old man found that she had a lot of strength, and exclaimed, "What does that girl want to do?" My family is small and small, and I can't take in distinguished guests. Dongfang Lin's heart moved, this old man was a clear-eyed person, and he hugged his fists and said: "Don't hide it from the old man." We were passing by today and heard about the trouble of your family, and we wanted to help you. The old man looked at her, not like he was joking, hesitated, and said, "What is the origin of the girl?" My family is like this, how can you help? Dongfang Lin Zhengse said: "My family is a dart game, and my surname is Lin." Shandong Road has been walked many times, as long as you tell us where it is and in which gang of thieves has lost the dart silver, we will help you get it back. If you don't have anything, you can let the thief accompany you. When the old man heard this, he was even more surprised, and looked at Dongfang Lin and Wuwei behind him, and asked with a puzzled face: "We don't know each other, why do we want to help each other?" Dongfang Lin smiled slightly: "What else do you have to talk about acquaintances and acquaintances?" If you see it, you have to make a move, otherwise what is the use of practicing this martial arts. The old man hesitated for a while, and finally nodded: "Then, please come in and talk about it." ”

At this point, the cause and effect of the encounter between Wuwei and Dongfang Lin will be revealed. Besides, at the moment, Wu Wei told Qiu Yinming about the journey on the boat to Luoyang.

When it came to going to the thief's cottage, Wuwei said with admiration: "Dongfang does know a lot about these rivers and lakes, and after listening to the Lin family who came back with the corpse, I know that the gang of thieves is by no means a big green forest with a head and face, and when we went, she had a bottom in her heart, but I was a little worried, after all, there were only two of us." Qiu Yinming listened and said with a smile: "As a result, you picked a big camp, didn't you?" Wuwei said: "Fortunately, I didn't encounter any difficulties, otherwise how would I go back and explain to others." There is indeed not much money left, but Dongfang still turned the cottage upside down and forced them to move out of their homes. ”

To regain the money, the two discussed, since it was originally the property given by the Qian family, it was better to send it there all the way for him, so as not to run back and forth. So he asked the people of the Lin family to go back to report the news, and the two continued to go north and send the money to Hejian Mansion, the relatives of the Qian family. After the matter was done, I got a receipt, and I just wanted to go back to Yuhang, but I heard the news of Qiu Yinming's accident.

At that time, it was already September, and it had been more than a month since Qiu Yinming was escorted back to Beijing, and the case was serious, so it was naturally published in the Di Bao and distributed throughout the country. Dongfang Lin and Wuwei didn't know that they had lost Hejian Mansion City, and one day they occasionally heard people talking in the downtown wine shop, and they found a copy of the mansion newspaper to read, and they knew that such a big thing had happened. So the two immediately rushed to the capital. Dongfang Lin was careful, and thought of the Zhenbei Dart Bureau of Tianjin Wei, so he went to the dart to send the receipt of the Qian family's relatives and personally wrote a letter back to Yuhang County. The matter was over, and then I hurried to the capital.

Qiu Yinming asked how they got in touch with Qi Mutian, and said Wuwei: "When Dongfang and I arrived in the capital, we really had no way, so we had to go to Fan Ying to recommend myself." Coincidentally, Mr. Qi was also in his house that day, so he ran into it. ”

The two talked for a while, and Wuwei asked, "Yinming, what are you going to do in the future?" ”

Wuwei was completely unintentional, but it happened to touch Qiu Yinming's sore spot, and when he saw him, he bowed his head slightly and said silently, "Let's talk about it." Fang Zhi said the wrong thing. Qiu Yinming didn't blame him, calmed down, raised his head and smiled: "The weather is so good, why don't we go out and stand for a while." ”

The boat passed the boundary of Kaifeng Mansion, it was already deep in autumn, the wind on the river was cold, Qiu Yinming was recovering from his injuries, and he couldn't help but shiver. Looking at the railing, the withered grass on the shore is withered and yellow, and the mulberry forest in the distance has long been deciduous, and it is bleak. Thinking of the original matter of governing the river and persuading mulberry in this place, it seems that it has been a long time.
