On the other side, Cen Erniang sat with Cen Erye for an afternoon, and after having dinner with her mother and brother in Nuanmei Hall, she returned to the Plum Garden.

As soon as she returned to her room, she thought about it and felt that the 30,000 taels of silver were uneasy in her hands, and she decided to go out and deposit the silver ticket into the bank. By the way, I will coerce and lure Yang Er and his wife, especially the cunning Yang Er sister-in-law, to see if I can get some useful information from them.

Cen Erniang thought about it, time is running out, and she still needs to do her best to do this. But the hiding place of the second couple of Yang and his wife could not be exposed, so she changed clothes with Ling Feng, who was similar to her, and asked Shuying to change her into the same dress as Ling Feng, pretending to be scolded and crying by Shuying all the way, half-covering her face with a handkerchief and bowing her head, leaving the plum garden and going to Wutong Courtyard to meet Shuying's brother Libai.

Those martial masters in the Wutong Courtyard were dismissed by Master Cen San one after another in the first two days. Master Cen San's mind is not difficult to understand: if his son can't do it, he will replace his grandson. Although Cen Dalang's reading is not as good as Cen's second master, he is much stronger than other children in Xifu.

Therefore, after the second master Cen was deposed, Cen Dalang was taken to Songzhu Yaju by the third master of Cen, and personally invited Mr. Cen to guard his study and system. Because Cen Dalang has passed the township test, and the government test has been new, there are still three years before the next government test. Therefore, Master Cen San didn't embarrass Cen Dalang much, and still let him warm up Meitang every day to eat with his parents.

This is all because in the past, Cen San did not like to take care of Cen Dalang, who loved to dance with knives and guns, and the two grandparents had a weak relationship, Cen San Master pondered that he would have to rely on Cen Dalang in the future, and now of course he must try to meet his requirements and let him get together with his parents every day.

In fact, the third master Cen already had a spectrum in his heart, and the second master of Cen was a rebel who caused him to have no face to see people now, he didn't plan to stay, and the fox and raccoon spirit of the Lin family who had conquered the West Mansion certainly couldn't stay. Anyway, Cen Dalang has little time to get together with his parents, and first meet his requirements to increase his good impression of his grandfather.

The third master Cen didn't know that because of his move to win over Cen Dalang, it completely chilled the hearts of everyone in the second room.

Because of the third master Cen to take action, now there are only one or two rough envoys in charge of sprinkling and sweeping in Wutong Courtyard, and two gatekeepers, and the whole courtyard is very empty.

Libai had already obeyed Cen Erniang's instructions, and under the pretext of taking his favorite maid out for a walk, he bought the two gatekeepers in advance.

The two porters accepted Libai's silver, and they didn't look at Cen Erniang carefully, only teased her and Libai a few words, and let them go out from the small door.

Cen Erniang and Libai, after leaving Xifu, in order to prevent being followed, blended into the crowd, and went around from Dongcheng to Nancheng.

Nancheng is a gathering place for civilians, it is a noisy place, with all kinds of shops lined up one after another, and the wide streets are lined with stalls selling all kinds of things. Most of the people of the three religions and the nine streams also gathered in Nancheng, which caused an extremely complicated environment here.

The so-called great hidden in the city, the southern city is an excellent place for Tibetans.

The two siblings, Libai and Shuying, grew up in Nancheng since they were children, and they understand the twists and turns in Nancheng very well. He was two years older than Shuying, and when Lipper was ten years old, his parents died of serious illness one after another, and his relatives were not very wealthy.

Libai took Shuying to be a beggar on the street for more than a year, and one day on the street, they happened to bump into Cen Dalang who sneaked out of Cen Mansion alone to play in Nancheng, and was stolen of all the money, so Cen Dalang was left on the street.

At that time, Cen Dalang was very unlucky, not only was he stripped of his silver by the thief, but he couldn't find a way back to Cen Mansion, and fainted on the street in heavy rain and fever, almost dying.

It was Libai and Shuying who took the jade pendant that Cen Dalang was carrying, and dragged him to the hospital together, begging the doctor to save people. Because he and Shuying sent Cen Dalang to the hospital for treatment in time, Cen Dalang was able to pick up a life.

After that, Libai and Shuying were taken back to Xifu by Er Ye Cen. The two of them are helpless and penniless, and they are willing to sell themselves and stay in the Cen family as servants and maids, at least they can eat and dress every day, and they can read and study.

Second Master Cen took pity on them for having no support since childhood, and valued the character of their brothers and sisters, so he signed a ten-year living contract with Libai and Shuying, and let the two of them follow Cen Dalang and Cen Erniang respectively to study and learn rituals. and promised that when the ten-year period expired, he would give the two brothers and sisters a shop and let them out of the house.

Because there are still two years to expire in ten years, Libai got the instructions of Cen Erye, and since the beginning of this year, he has often gone out of the house, walking around the southern city, while checking the environment, understanding the intertwined forces in the southern city, and selecting suitable shops to facilitate the operation of the house in the future.

Therefore, after Cen Erniang arrested Yang Er and his wife and asked them, she asked Libai to take someone to hide them in Nancheng and take care of them.

Gao and Feng never thought that Yang Er and his wife would hide in Nancheng. So they searched all over the West Mansion but didn't find anyone, even if they knew that Cen Erniang hid people outside the mansion, they didn't look for it again. The main reason is that Hong'an Mansion is too big, the mansion covers an area of more than one million hectares, and the population is hundreds of thousands, so it is impossible to find it.

Cen Erniang, under the leadership of Libai, came to the small courtyard where Yang Er's husband and wife were hidden, and it was already dark.

The people who took care of Yang Er's husband and wife were several dart masters from the Hongwei Dart Bureau that Libai met in Nancheng, who were good at talking and quite reliable.

Libai sent Cen Erniang to the wing where Yang Erniang and his wife were imprisoned, took a few ingots of silver, and a dart master stuffed a ingot, invited them out, and let them stand in the courtyard to guard. He himself accompanied Cen Erniang into the house, closed the door and guarded the door. Although Yang and his wife were tied with ropes, Libai was still not at ease.

After a few days, Yang Er and his wife saw Cen Erniang again, and they didn't care about what they were feeling, so they grabbed the ground with their heads and desperately begged for mercy: "Second girl!" Second girl, we know that we are wrong, we are fascinated by lard, and we have done such a lack of morality, please raise your noble hand and spare our lives! ”

For the past few days, they have been locked up here, so that the heavens should not be right, and the earth should not be spiritual. Only one bowl of rice and two bowls of water hung on his life every day, and his hands and feet were tied for a long time, from the initial numbness and unbearable pain, to the extreme pain later, and he lost consciousness. The most unbearable thing for them is that Lazar is all on their bodies, and only at night will there be a deaf and dumb mother-in-law who will wash their bodies and change their clothes.

In the past, Yang Er's family was the most difficult, and when they were bullied by the thugs in the gambling house and didn't even dare to go home, they were never so miserable.

The big men who guarded them usually ignored them, and only when they shouted for help or made a noise, they would kick and beat them as sandbags.

Yes, when they saw Cen Erniang at this time, Yang Er and his wife couldn't help crying with joy, and they reluctantly turned over with the only remaining strength in their bodies, knocked their heads to the ground, couldn't afford to lie on their stomachs, and begged for mercy one by one.

"If you knew this was the case, why bother in the first place." Cen Erniang sighed, put the sachet on her body to her nose, although the room had just been cleaned up by the dumb woman, there was still an unpleasant smell of urine, very pungent.

Cen Erniang frowned, interrupting the couple who were crying and screaming, sticking their heads to the ground, and constantly begging for mercy: "Shut up!" It's a headache for me, girl. One more word, and I'll have you killed at once, and you'll be thrown into the wilderness of the northern suburbs. ”

Yang Er and his wife suddenly fell silent.

"I don't have a lot of time and I don't have a lot of patience. There are some things that I only ask once. Cen Erniang was almost stunned by the smell of musty urine, and she was a little impatient: "What do I ask, what do you say." Don't try to deceive me or deceive me, or I'll arrest your son, who is still in Lushan Academy, to accompany you. Got it? I nodded when I understood. ”

"Good." Cen Erniang nodded as if the couple were dying, and then said, "Don't worry, Peng'er is still in Lushan Academy now, okay." My grandmother and aunt have been in a hurry lately, and they are busy driving away our family, so they don't have their hands to clean up Peng'er for the time being. ”

"However, after we leave the Cen family in a few days, what will happen to Peng'er, you should understand. My grandmother was merciless and merciful to those who betrayed her. Cen Erniang looked at Yang Er and his wife with a frightened face, and wanted to speak to Peng'er to intercede but was afraid of disturbing her anxious appearance, and sneered: "Although you husband and wife are not a thing, at least they are good parents." ”

"Now the fate of your son is in your hands. If you can answer something that satisfies me, Peng'er's life, I will save it for you. If not......"

"Second girl," Yang Er's sister-in-law said hurriedly before Yang Er could speak: "You ask!" I say everything, I just ask you to protect Peng'er and let him live well! ”

"That's right! Peng'er can't have anything! Two girls! Please! Yang Er also shouted in tears. He and his wife begged God and worshiped Buddha, and sought medical advice everywhere, and it took nearly thirty years to get this only son. His old Yang family only has such a Wenqu star root, and nothing can happen!

"I ask you, what other instructions do grandmothers and aunts have to tell you to exchange my mother's medicine and find the title deeds of the manor?"

"It's gone!" Yang and his wife spoke in unison.

"Then during the time you two were doing things for them, did you hear about the secrets of the big house? For example, what happened to the baby that my aunt was carrying? ”

Cen Erniang always felt that the golden fetus that her eldest aunt was pregnant with was a little unspeakably weird. And the maids and wives she placed in the big room and Tinglan Courtyard didn't know about it. Her uncle is very old, and he has long been hollowed out by wine and sex, and Dr. Zhen also said two years ago that it is difficult for him to make a woman pregnant.

Why did he suddenly get Fung pregnant three years later?
