Du Qiyue picked up the teacup, slowly buttoned the lid of the teacup, took a sip of tea with an astringent taste, and said, "Aunt Zhou, you are not afraid of the county commander, how can I be afraid." Aunt Zhou probably forgot to ask clearly, I am a scholar of Mingyuan Academy in this town, if it weren't for my death, my master would recommend me to take the county exam next year. ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Zhou's heart trembled, the literati of the Dafeng Dynasty had a high status, and he was just a scholar, and he was more respected than ordinary people. This Du Qiyue was able to be recommended by the best school in the town to take the county exam, he must have always been excellent in character and learning, even if such a person commits a crime and is arrested, the government will reduce the crime as appropriate, not to mention that this time the matter is not his fault, the Qian family's calculations are indeed made, if Du Qiyue really makes trouble, even if the county master is the son-in-law of the Li family, he may not be able to cover it on the surface.

Mrs. Zhou regretted a little in her heart and agreed to accept this matchmaker, this Qian family is really harmful, what's wrong with marrying a scholar, although the Li family is rich, but in the end it is only a businessman, and the child born in the future is only a businessman, where is the child who gives birth to a scholar decent? Mrs. Zhou didn't know how much she scolded the Qian family and Qian Yin, but she didn't want to think that she had taken the money from the Qian family, and it was estimated that if she was Qian Yin, she would find a merchant to marry in order to be greedy for wealth.

Du Qiyue saw a little regret on Mrs. Zhou's face, so she asked again: "Aunt Zhou, do you think you will give this Geng post?" ”

"If you don't give it, depending on how many words you say, if you don't give it, you won't give it." Mrs. Zhou said with her hands on her hips and eyebrows.

Now this Geng post is now Zhou Matchmaker wants to give and can't give, she is already a grasshopper on the same line with the Qian family, if she helps the Qian family pass today's pass, then only her good will be in the future, if today's pass is not enough, she won't want to be a matchmaker anymore. Not only that, the Qian family and the Li family are not fuel-efficient lamps, and if Qian Yin's marriage is not successful and her reputation is ruined, don't think about marrying a good man, then the Qian family must not come to her to settle accounts. Besides, the people of the Li family don't know about Qian Yin's betrothed, and what Mrs. Zhou said just now that she was not afraid of the county master was just to scare Du Qiyue, if the Li family knew that she knew that Qian Yin was married and helped to be a matchmaker, she would definitely not let her have a good time.

Therefore, Mrs. Zhou thought about it several times and decided that she would definitely not be able to take out the money and silver today, no matter what.

"Aunt Zhou, it's all said and done, if you really don't give it, then I'm really welcome." Du Qiyue said again.

Mrs. Zhou glanced at the tiger who was glaring at her angrily, and said in a bluff: "I want to see how you are polite!" She rolled her eyes, and her ass reached the ground, and then she patted her thighs and howled: "Ahhhh Come and take a look, relying on yourself to be a scholar, you are unreasonable and bullying people, everyone, come and help, you are going to die! ”

In the early morning, there was no sound in the alley, and when Mrs. Zhou howled, the voice was very loud, and immediately someone shouted not far away to ask Mrs. Zhou if something had happened. Du Qiyue can't let Mrs. Zhou find the neighbors who live here, those people must be helping the neighbors, if you really come over, Du Qiyue can't get any good, he hurriedly let Huzi run out and close the courtyard door, and then stood in the courtyard and shouted: "You matchmaker, I think I give less money to the matchmaker and don't want to help me say that the matchmaker is okay, why bother to make this look, I want to have a good fight with you!" ”

The person who asked if Zhou Matchmaker had an accident just now heard Du Qiyue's words, thinking that he understood what was going on, this week's matchmaker was not disgusted once or twice The countryman who came to her to say that the matchmaker gave little money, and every time he had to make a fuss, the person didn't take it seriously, just shouted loudly: "Zhou Matchmaker, if you don't want to accept the matchmaker, forget it, why make a fuss, my child had a fever last night and was lying down to rest, if you are so sick that you can't get better, see if I don't ask you for medicine money!" ”

Mrs. Zhou didn't expect Du Qiyue to make such a move, she opened her mouth and wanted to howl again, but she closed her mouth because she saw Du Qiyue slapping the dagger on the table. She pointed at Du Qiyue and asked, "Du Qiyue, what do you want to do?" Do you think I'm scared, don't swing a knife in front of my eyes, I'm not afraid! ”

"Aunt Zhou is not afraid, is she?" Du Qiyue played with the small dagger in his hand, flipped his fingers to make out one by one, and then suddenly inserted the dagger on the table, and the red lacquered wooden table was pierced at once.

Mrs. Zhou was frightened by the sharpness of the dagger and screamed "ah", turned around and was about to run into the yard, but was blocked by Huzi, who had already walked to the door of the hall. Mrs. Zhou was a little scared and asked, "Du Qiyue, do you want to kill people?" ”

"Aunt Zhou, you have lived for decades and been a matchmaker for so long, you should know very well what kind of life those divorced men live." Du Qiyue pulled out the dagger, touched the sharp edge of the dagger with his fingers, and then began to trim his long nails little by little, he looked at Mrs. Zhou and said: "Aunt Zhou, my father and mother have loved me since I was a child, although I am a countryman, I also grew up with ten fingers without touching the spring water." In addition to being able to read, I can't pick my shoulders and can't lift them, and now my father and mother have passed away, and I'm left alone, and I don't have much money at home, so I'm equivalent to sitting on a mountain and eating empty, so I'm waiting to find a good father-in-law's family to take care of it, so that I can live a better life. If the Qian family's plan succeeds, I will definitely not be able to find a good Yue family, and I will have to be alone in the end, so there is only one way to starve to death. Aunt Zhou, do you think I can starve myself to death? ”

Mrs. Zhou was stunned for a moment, and only felt that the dagger was as sad as cutting her bones, but she still bluffed and said: "Du Qiyue, even if you are a scholar, if you dare to touch me to take a look, you will still have to suffer a lawsuit!" Believe it or not, I'm going to call someone to call the head catcher now, we often have head catchers outside the alley, as long as you dare to touch me, I will keep you from going out of this alley and go to the cell! ”

Du Qiyue will not be stupid enough to kill people and set fires, he has always been a good citizen, but he has been in the hotel for a long time before, and he has seen many of the best, and there are many excellent ones to deal with, so he guessed from the beginning that Mrs. Zhou, who can say that black is white, must be very cunning and difficult to deal with, so he brought this dagger to pretend. Because a person like Mrs. Zhou will not achieve her goal if she does not think about subduing her.

"Aunt Zhou, go and call the head catcher, I'm just holding a dagger to trim my nails, I don't know which law in our Dafeng Dynasty prohibits people from using daggers to trim their nails. But Aunt Zhou, I know that there are several laws in our Dafeng Dynasty that stipulate that framing literati will be punished by one degree. Hurry up and call the head catcher, just let me ask those head catchers if I am calculated, what crime will the person who calculates me be sentenced to? ”

"What nonsense are you talking about, who is calculating you, how do you know that the Qian family and I are calculating you, what evidence do you have?" Mrs. Zhou still said with a weak heart.

At this time, the shout of the little fat man just now came from outside the gate: "Grandma, grandma, I won't go home for dinner today, Xiaobao's house is ready to eat today, please let me eat!" ”

Du Qiyue listened to the footsteps of the little fat man running away, and said to Mrs. Zhou: "Aunt Zhou, is your grandson's name Xiaoquan?" It's really good, it looks like a leather child, and it must often run around. This child is the easiest to get lost, I can't tell when he will be tied up by someone's teeth and sold for money, Aunt Zhou, don't you say? ”

"What do you mention my grandson for, what do you mean by that?" When Mrs. Zhou heard Du Qiyue talk about her grandson, she immediately became nervous, her son had been married for three years to have such a precious grandson, Mrs. Zhou was in pain to the bones, and she couldn't tolerate others to hurt a little.

"Aunt Zhou, if you don't give me Geng post today, I can't do anything about you. But I'm a person, nothing else, just admit death, if I'm not happy, don't think about the people who hurt me. Reputation is the most important thing to me, and if I lose the most important thing, I will let the people who hurt me lose their most important thing no matter what! Aunt Zhou, what is the most important thing for you, is it your little grandson? ”

Du Qiyue laughed as she spoke, her expression was extremely gentle, and her eyes were full of smiles, but how did Mrs. Zhou think that Du Qiyue had a hideous face and a terrifying smile. She finally panicked in her heart, and begged Du Qiyue with a pale face: "I'll give you Geng Tie, give you Geng Tie, don't touch my grandson, don't touch my grandson!" ”

"You gave me Gengti, naturally I won't get along with you." When Du Qiyue saw it, he happily took the dagger and played a few more knife flowers.

Mrs. Zhou looked at the dagger in Du Qiyue's hand that moved freely, and trembled again, immediately got up and ran into the wing room to find Geng Ti, and then stumbled out and handed the wooden box of Fang Geng Ti to Du Qiyue, "Geng Ti is here, you take it, you take it." ”

Du Qiyue took the small wooden box, opened it and saw that there were two red Geng posts lying inside, Du Qiyue opened the one above and looked at it, only to see that the name written on it was Li Sicheng, it turned out to be the gentleman's Geng post. Du Qiyue closed it without looking at it, picked up the one below and looked at it, it did have the name of Qian Yin written on it, Du Qiyue compared the content written on it, and after making sure that it was exactly the same as the Geng post at home, he took this Geng post and stuffed it into his sleeve pocket.

"Mrs. Zhou, I won't deliberately involve you, I hope you also keep your mouth shut and don't say things that shouldn't be said!" Du Qiyue said, then put the wooden box on the table, and quickly left Mrs. Zhou's house with Huzi.

When passing through the alley, the little fat man named Xiao Quan saw them come out and ran over to say goodbye to the two, Du Qiyue pinched the little fat man's fleshy face, touched a penny from his pocket and gave it to him, and said, "Take it and buy candy to eat!" ”

"Thank you, Lang Jun." The little fat man held the copper plate and smiled happily and revealed two small dimples, looking very festive.

"Let's go, let's play." Du Qiyue poked the dimples on the little fat man's face and said.

The little fat man thanked him again, and ran away happily.

Huzi didn't come back to his senses until he got out of the alley, in his impression, Du Qiyue has always been a weak person, who has never seen him like this today, and even if he heard those threatening words, he was a little worried in his heart. He hesitated for a long time before asking, "Xiaoyue, why were you like that at Mrs. Zhou's house just now?" ”

"Do you think I'm weird?" Du Qiyue asked.

"That's a little bit, where did you get that dagger from Xiaoyue?" Huzi scratched his head and asked.

"We used to have it at home, and I used it to scare her. People like Mrs. Zhou are the most difficult, and good words don't make sense for her. It doesn't work hard to come, and when we are reasonable, we will become unreasonable. I had no choice but to think of such a way. Look, it's pretty useful, isn't it? ”

"That's true, but doesn't the Li family really have to worry about it?" Huzi asked.

"I have to think about this, let's go shopping first, this is not in a hurry." Du Qiyue said that he always felt that Li Sicheng's name sounded so familiar, but he couldn't think of hearing it there.
