CHAPTER XLVI
It is said that the Daiyu sisters and brothers discussed and calculated why Lin Hai was assassinated in the small study, and the more they thought about it, the more reasonable they felt, and they were busy asking people to go to the front to investigate, but the assassin had not finished the trial? If it's all right, invite the master in.
After waiting for a long time, Lin Hai finally came slowly pacing. Daiyu inevitably burst into tears when she saw him, Lin Hai immediately understood that he was pretending to be in vain, and glared at the two of them: "Who sued your sister?" ”
Jia Huan immediately pointed at Jia Cong: "He! ”
Jia Cong sneered: "Sister, is it smart, we are thinking of helping you find the person behind the scenes." ”
Lin Hai waved his hand and said, "It has nothing to do with you children." ”
Jia Cong hurriedly said: "Uncle listen to our guess first, how much truth does it make?" Because Xiang Daiyu made a look.
Daiyu stopped crying and slowly told her father what they had just speculated.
Lin Hai couldn't help but shoot the case when he heard it: "I was also thinking about this, but I didn't come up with it." Yu'er, you are really a female Zhuge . ”
Jia Cong clapped his hands and said, "I said that my sister is smart~~"
Lin Hai couldn't help but raise his feet and think about turning around one wall after another in the room, and kept reading: "Yes, it must be so!" I have been away from Yangzhou for so long and have been safe, but halfway through the walk, I began to encounter thieves. When I came to Beijing to report on my work, there was no movement. Jia Cong couldn't help but squeeze his eyebrows at Jia Huan - this posture is exactly the same as Daiyu's just now, and it is obvious that they are the father and daughter. Well-informed people know that I am here to submit my resignation, and I don't think I am here to seek my position. You just don't want me to go back. ”
Daiyu hurriedly said: "Then can my father just find a Beijing official and not go back?" ”
Lin Hai waved his hand and said: "I'm afraid it won't work, let alone have to go back for another term." Besides," he snorted lightly, "I don't want Lin to know, I want to know!" ”
Daiyu was anxious: "Taishi Gongyun, the son of a daughter, can't sit down." I know that it is extremely sinister, but I have to try it myself! Fathers don't think about their daughters? As he spoke, he burst into tears again.
Lin Hai hurriedly argued: "Yu'er, everyone has come to the door, how can they be allowed to do so?" The so-called knowing that there are tigers in the mountains and preferring to go to the tiger mountains, your father scared them out of the second-class officials of the imperial court? ”
Jia Cong rolled his eyes fiercely beside him: It's a shame that this old man was born in ancient times, and he doesn't know how to coax girls. Seeing that Lin Daiyu's tears were turning into a waterfall again, she had to ask for help: "It's not a matter of hiding in Beijing, how can there be a thousand days to prevent thieves." People are eyeing my uncle, and even such a ruthless hand is down, so we will not die. Only by going to this root can we be truly safe. ”
Lin Hai nodded again and again: "Very, very, very!" That's exactly what I meant, and Cong'er said it for me. ”
Daiyu glared at her father heartily, her eyes were red like rabbits, and she didn't have half the power. Because he said: "In this case, Dad must wait for the people behind the scenes to be uprooted before he can go back." Otherwise, I will not follow. ”
Lin Hai frowned and said, "If I don't go back, how do I know who it is?" ”
Only then did Daiyu remember and ask him, "Didn't Dad interrogate the assassin?" He didn't say it? ”
Lin Hai smiled bitterly: "I said, he said everything he knew, but he was just an assassin and knew very little." Then he told what Hu Zhong had just said and his own speculation.
Daiyu gritted her teeth and scolded: "What a dead slave who doesn't know how to be gracious!" ”
Jia Cong felt that this was human nature, but this person had low eyes and low hands, and he didn't even want his life to take shortcuts, so he couldn't help but pull the corners of his mouth.
Bi Linhai saw it and asked, "What about Cong'er?" ”
Jia Cong said casually: "Such a person, as long as you want to find it, you can find it anywhere." ”
"How so?"
"I heard the third sister say before, if things are uneven, they will sing." This was what he heard Jia Baoyu say in his previous life, and now he has to plant it on Tanchun's head first. "The people of this world are born into the upper and the lower; God doesn't score when he gives people wisdom. There are wise and stupid people. It is just that the Venerable Master is smarter than the Subordinate, but there is always the opposite. There are few people on the upper side and many people on the lower side, so every household can find a person who is smarter than the master. He spread his hands, "If things are not even, they will sing, is it flat?" Those who are unjust will endure it if they are honest. God, when he gives people sex, he doesn't distinguish between superior and inferior. There are always subordinates who are smarter than the Venerable Master and are not honest and unwilling to endure. Moreover, people in the world are accustomed to looking up at themselves and looking down on others. According to a survey in a previous life, most people feel that they are overkill, "so it is easier to be upset." If some of these people are wise, how can they not think of being used by their masters? Therefore, if you want to find it, which of these big families with hundreds of people can't find one? ”
Lin Hai listened for a long time, and couldn't help but high-five: "That's right!" He hurriedly asked him, "Who told you this?" ”
"That ......" Jia Cong smirked weakly, "Hehe......"
Lin Hai chased after him and asked: "It's reasonable, which gentleman said it?" Lin had a heart. ”
Jia Cong pouted, and had the heart to say that this was your apprentice and I came up with it myself, do people believe it? I had to say, "I'm only afraid...... It's not easy to meet. ”
Lin Hai hurriedly asked, "Aren't you in the capital?" ”
Lin Daiyu hurriedly pulled her father's sleeve, leaned over and whispered, "I'm afraid it's a woman." ”
Lin Hai was stunned and couldn't help but exclaim: "It's a pity! ”
Jia Cong wished that he had misunderstood, and clapped his hands: "Look! This is also a kind of injustice. How talented is I, Mr. Lin, if I am a man, I am afraid that I will not be able to go on stage to pay respects? But now women are not allowed to be officials in this world. ”
Lin Hai was also depressed for a while, and sighed: "It's a pity for Yu'er......"
Jia Huan also followed and said: "There is also a third sister, who is also smart and tight." ”
Jia Cong took a look, and when he was there, he hurriedly pulled the topic back: "Therefore, if there is no Hu Zhong, I am afraid that there will also be Wu Zhong and Mo Zhong." ”
Lin Hai nodded, stroked his beard and said, "It makes sense, so it doesn't seem that I have managed my family." The children laughed quietly. frowned again and said, "Now I can only wait for Yangzhou to investigate." ”
Jia Cong thought for a while: "That Hu Zhong is doing business with the people behind the scenes, he stabbed his uncle with a dagger for 10,000 taels of silver, and now he has also stabbed and the silver has arrived, is their business completed?" ”
Lin Hai didn't understand: "What does Cong'er mean?" ”
Jia Cong said: "If he is doing business with others, then he is not the other party's person." ”
Lin Haidao: "No. ”
Jia Cong said: "Last time, my father gave me a silver ticket of ten taels of silver, I looked over and over many times, and I remembered every line on it." "Actually, he was curious, for the first time in his life, he had seen the legendary artifact of fortune like a silver ticket." This Hu Zhong is smart and must have a good memory, but he has been poor for half his life. People have given him silver tickets for a long, long time, and I think he will carefully figure out and check each one many times, I don't know if you remember which money bank ticket number the silver ticket is? The pattern, mark, and rhyme may be remembered clearly? With such a large amount of money, ordinary small money banks can't give it out casually, I'm afraid it will be from a big bank. The shopkeepers of the big money village are all shrewd people, and they may remember some clues, and it is unknown if the uncle can find the source from them. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Hai couldn't help but shoot the case: "Wonderful! He praised a few more sentences: "It's hard for you to come!" ”
Jia Cong glanced at Jia Huan triumphantly, and Jia Huan said helplessly to Daiyu: "Sister, take a look, let him be like that." ”
Daiyu pursed her lips and nodded, "It's really a useful idea." I was also very proud in my heart - this son was actually taught by her.
Lin Hai hurriedly got up: "I'll ask Hu Zhong to go!" ”
Jia Huan asked, "Is he willing to help us think about it?" ”
Lin Hai smiled: "This doesn't work for you children to worry about. "Clapped his hands and walked away.
Jia Cong suddenly remembered that Mi'er was coming, and shouted behind him: "Where is Brother Mi'er?" ”
Lin Hai said from afar: "Fight with Yang Song in the back." ”
Jia Huan and Jia Cong immediately understood that Yang Song was the "quite capable guard" who bullied the little thugs with Fang Er and Mi'er, and they couldn't sit still.
Daiyu looked at the two of them and sighed: "Well, anyway, I didn't expect you to help me do anything, let's play." ”
He rushed out twice and ran to the backyard, and sure enough, he saw that Mi'er and the guard were fighting, and they were busy waving flags and shouting and pointing fingers.
On the other hand, Lin Hai brought Hu Zhong to the front of the hall again, and recounted Jia Cong's words with a smile, and asked him, "If you think about it, you must remember which one of the silver tickets is?" Patterns, marks, and rhymes might help the artist draw them? Hu Zhong was dumbfounded.
Lin Hai Nai said: "Have you ever heard, wrapped around your waist for 100,000 yuan, riding a crane down to Yangzhou?" ”
Hu Zhong shook his head.
Lin Haiyin stood up and stroked his beard with his hands, and paced in front of the hall: "This is a famous sentence written by Xu Ning of the Tang Dynasty, which is intended to describe the wealth of Huaiyang. Although there are more than 100,000 runs, it is not difficult to deal with the merchants in the Huaiyang area. Since ancient times, wealthy merchants have been closely associated with money banks. Thinking that your silver ticket must be from a big money bank, and even if the people behind the scenes are not wealthy businessmen in Huaiyang, they are afraid that they will not be able to get rid of it. Hu Zhong, I can think of the silver ticket, and the person behind the scenes can also think of it. Your daughter-in-law took the money you exchanged for your life, but it may not be safe. ”
Hu Zhong's expression, which had not moved since he stabbed himself, was finally moved.
Lin Hai looked at him and said, "You won't give all the ten thousand taels of silver tickets to your daughter-in-law?" Hu Zhong shuddered. Lin Hai knew that he had poked at his sore spot, and said, "Your business with the person behind the scenes has now been settled, and I don't want your money." If you help me find him, I and your family will be at ease. ”
Hu Zhong suddenly calmed down again, shook his head and said, "I don't know how to read." ”
Lin Hai knew that he was a person who could read the accounts, and he knew all the words on the silver ticket, so he must not say it. After a little thought, although this person is conceited and a little clever, he is narrow-minded and shallow-minded. Since he doesn't even want his life and conscience for the sake of his son's well-being, he must take his child very seriously. Should he really rest assured of his daughter-in-law? I'm afraid that most of those silver tickets are not in the hands of his daughter-in-law, but they are divided among his three sons. Because he said: "The three boys in your family, the eldest is fourteen, half the eldest is not small, and he can't control himself the most." If you go to a rich place and have money in your hand, you can't keep it all and use it to buy food, clothing, and play, or even go to the land of fireworks to make a fresh one. It must be known that the gambling house brothel is the fastest news place in the world, but I am afraid that he spent a silver ticket yesterday, and someone will come to the door today. ”
Hu Zhong's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth vigorously.
Lin Hai nodded and said, "Think about it, I still say that, I don't want your silver." Because he waved his hand and asked him to take him down, he ordered him to eat less.
Because he sat down to sort out his thoughts for a while, someone outside reported that King Xian was coming, so he hurriedly got up and went out to greet him.
When he arrived at the door, Situ Pan strode over and held his hand: "Ruhai is shocked?" ”
Lin Haidao: "I was really not surprised, but I should be surprised the most, but I wanted to laugh." "He sat down hand in hand, and told him in detail what had happened today's assassination.
When he heard that it was Jia Huan who took a bag of snacks to block the poisonous dagger for him, Situ Pan couldn't help but stroking his palm: "Good boy!" ”
Lin Hai said with a smile: "Let the two of them make a fuss about the mung bean cake on the left and the walnut crisp on the right, I wasn't scared." ”
Situ Pan also smiled: "There are few serious adults in the Jia family who can use it, but the children are all blessed." ”
Lin Haiyin also talked about the interrogation of Hu Zhongzhi and reasoned, he attributed all what the children said to his own name, because they are still too young, Daiyu is especially a girl, don't provoke Situ Pan's attention.
Situ Pan clapped his hands again and again, and sighed: "Ruhai, is it good for you to be the secretary of the Criminal Department in the future?" ”
Lin Hai hurriedly waved his hand and said, "That's it, I'd rather go to the Hanlin Academy to rest." ”
Situ Pan only sighed pity.
The two of them discussed for a while, Jia Cong and they should go back to the house, and they came to say goodbye, but they happened to meet Situ Pan who was still there, and they all hurried up to salute.
Situ Pante praised Jia Huan, saying that he was "agile, steady, and filial", and Jia Huan's ears were red.
Jia Cong hurriedly said: "Brother Xianwang, Uncle Lin, let's discuss, can't let our family know about this matter today." ”
Lin Haiqi: "But why? It's not a good thing, I don't want to publicize it. ”
Jia Cong snorted: "We lied to our family every day when we came to look for you to study, and they all said that we went to the dart bureau to learn martial arts, and the second aunt was not happy with Brother Huan to study." If you talk about this today, it will be exposed. ”
Where did Lin Hai want to get this? After a while, he said angrily: "How can this be reasonable! ”
Situ Pan said: "I thought I would go to your house to praise you, but if I can't keep it, I will do bad things with good intentions." Because he asked, "Didn't you say that you came to our house to play?" ”
Jia Cong pouted and said: "There are a lot of things going on at home, it's too earth-shattering to go to your house, I don't dare to attract attention at this time, it's better to stop a little." ”
Situ Pan glanced at him: "I heard that the pardon is checking the accounts?" ”
Jia Cong said: "It is said that the second aunt is greedy for a lot of public funds. By the way," he furrowed his little eyebrows and looked at Situ Pan, "Does our family really owe your brother a lot of money?" ”
Situ Pan nodded seriously: "I really owe him a lot of money." ”
Jia Cong shook his head like a little adult, and sighed: "It's better to persuade your brother, don't lend money to others in the future, everyone is not happy." Look at my Lao Tzu's dark face, it's as if someone owes him money. It's easy to borrow it and it hurts to go out! ”
Situ Pan nodded seriously: "What you said is very true, I don't think he will lend money to others in the future." ”
Lin Hai laughed beside him.
