Xu Zhai study.

Master Xu sat on the Taishi chair, looked at Mr. Mu who was sitting at the bottom and said, "People sent back?" ”

Mr. Mu nodded: "Send it back." ”

"Well, you go to find Xiaoquan to come in, and then send someone to Chai Pozi's house, so that she can come to see me immediately." Master Xu waved his hand: "Go ahead." ”

Mr. Mu came out of the study, gestured to Xu Xiaoquan who was guarding the side, and walked along the porch to the outer courtyard.

He bypassed the ear room in the outer courtyard and walked to the courtyard where the third young master lived.

In the courtyard of the third young master, Mrs. Li and the maid sat under the porch eating melon seeds and chatting. "Oh, Mr. Mu is here." Mrs. Li, who was guarding the door, saw Mr. Mu and quickly stood up and shouted loudly.

Mr. Mu smiled and nodded: "I'll come and see the third young master, has he fallen asleep?" How are you today? As he spoke, he walked inside.

Mrs. Li patted the melon seed shell on her hand, stepped forward with a smile and lifted the door curtain: "The third young master is asleep, he is very obedient today, so we have to be free to sneak around." Hey. ”

"It's okay, I'll take a look at the third young master and leave, you guys go and do your business." Mr. Mu entered the house and waved them out.

The furnishings in the room are half-old and not new, as if they had lit incense before taking a nap, and there was not the slightest unpleasant smell in the air. Because I want to marry, I have added some festive colors. The window was tightly closed, and the third young master was lying on the bed in the middle.

Mr. Mu walked over and sat on the half-waisted armchair in front of the bed: "Alas, the family is poor, my father is dying, I have a younger brother, but he looks very thoughtful, and he is not a little family-like, better than I imagined, I heard and said that he is literate." ”

"The lord has to marry you, I'd rather design. I took it upon myself to give a tael of silver. ”

"The wedding date is estimated to be soon, the master is so anxious, I don't understand what he means......"

"I'll go back now, just see how well you're doing."

With that, he got up and walked out. The boy on the bed was motionless, breathing steadily, as if he hadn't woken up and hadn't heard.

Xu Xiaoquan entered the study and stood at the desk without speaking.

"Xiaoquan, if the young master of the He family finds it, just say no thanks, filial piety is his, and the idea is his, you know how to say it." Master Xu instructed filial piety.

"Yes." Xiaoquan is thirty years old, and his eyes are very similar to Master Xu's, revealing a cold light.

"Well, you did a good job today, go and pay a tael of silver in your account." Master Xu wrote a note and put it on the table.

Xu Xiaoquan bent down to take it. If he hadn't happened to pass by the Huichun Hall and saw the kid from the Song family selling ginseng, the old man's face would have been beaten by this slut. Fortunately, the old lady of the He family is about to celebrate her birthday, and Young Master He has been worrying about the birthday ceremony recently. In a word, it is done. Just in time.

In this way, Young Master He also got benefits, and the Xu family was not bad. Kill two birds with one stone.

Hmph, the person that the master has taken a fancy to has never escaped.

Xu Xiaoquan walked to the door, and was stopped by Master Xu again: "When the third young master becomes a relative, let's go back to Chuanping, and I will write a letter to you and send it to the eldest young master." After a pause, he said: "By the way, let my wife say it, I told the third young master about the doorman, and the daughter-in-law went back to serve tea, don't forget to prepare a gift." ”

Xu Xiaoquan responded, but he was a little confused in his heart, the old man obviously fell in love with the woman of the Song family, why didn't he accept the concubine, but instead married the fool of the third young master. Could it be that the wife is very jealous, so she first marries the third young master, and then Chen Cang is dark? Anyway, that stupid young master doesn't know anything and doesn't understand anything. Well, definitely. He thought wildly, took the letter and went out the door.

Assi didn't know these things, and she only felt angry at this time.

"Sister, I'm sorry for you. I'm sorry Abba. The corners of Ah Bei's mouth cracked, and when he grinned and cried, he inhaled painfully from the wound.

It turned out that after Ah Bei went to Huichun Hall in the morning to buy some other herbs, he took the ginseng out, and the boss of Huichun Hall was very happy, and discussed with Ah Bei to buy it, but someone called him away, and after a while he came out and said that the cash in the store was not enough, so Ah Bei would come back tomorrow to sell. Ah Bei got the letter and planned to go home first, but on the way, he met the young master of the He family.

The young master of the He family brought three or four entourages, and after blocking Ah Bei, he said that he wanted to buy the ginseng in Ah Bei's hand and bid five taels of silver. The bid of the owner of the Rejuvenation Hall was twenty taels, and when Ah Bei heard that the price was so low, he didn't want to sell it, and wanted to sell it to the Rejuvenation Hall tomorrow. As a result, Young Master He directly instructed someone to snatch the ginseng, and said: "I bought ginseng from you because I saw you, and I didn't know that I would give it to my lord obediently, so I dared to bargain with my lord and give me a discount for his legs." ”

Fortunately, Mr. Xu, who was passing by, saw it, and he recognized it as Axi's younger brother, so he asked Mr. Mu to save the person, bandaged it in Huichun Hall, took the medicine, and sent it back to Lishui Village directly.

"It's Abba's bad, Abba should think of it, the ginseng of Osan has been dug up, and there has been no good goods for many years. It took a toll on my son. Father Song propped himself up and pounded the kang in pain.

"Uncle, don't be angry, be careful of getting angry." Lu Lan persuaded on the side.

"Yes, uncle, Song Bei went to the town to be young, I don't know what kind of person the young master of the He family is, he never talks about what he wants, he has to rob him if he can't talk about it, and no one dares to do anything to him." Lu Feng sighed.

"Why? Why is he so unscrupulous? Assi asked Lu Feng.

Lu Feng hadn't read a book, so he didn't understand what it meant to be unscrupulous, so he guessed it and felt that it should be said that Young Master He was not good anyway. He explained in a low voice: "It is said that there are people in the He family who are big officials, and it seems that they are bigger than the county order, and the Chuanping county order will also visit the old lady of the He family." I've also heard that, so Young Master He is relying on his momentum, and no one dares to say anything if he is domineering. ”

"Then Song Bei was beaten for nothing?" Lu Lan saw that Axi's face was not good, and patted Axi's back and asked.

Mr. Mu's words rang in Asi's ears:

Even if our Xu family meets the He family, we have to retreat.

"What else can I do, you have no money and no power." Lu Feng glanced at Ah Bei, "Fortunately, the person is fine, and the external injury will be better in a few days." ”

Lu Lan also nodded: "That's it, you think, it's best if people are fine, if you lose it, you will lose it, maybe you can meet something better than this in the future." ”

Ah Bei looked at his sister's face, and suddenly cried loudly: "But I don't want my sister to marry that fool!" Why am I so useless, I can't protect a single branch of ginseng, if I sell ginseng, I can give my sister a retirement with money, and I can treat my father! ”

Ah Xi controlled his trembling body, and Lu Lan's eyes were also red.

At this time, someone suddenly interjected outside the house and said, "Oh, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense!" ”
