At first glance, hearing that Liu San had a talisman in his hand, Cai Si thought, what kind of talisman could it be? He has been with Gao Wenhan for a few years, and he also understands Gao Wenhan's temperament. Gao Wenhan was born poor, and after becoming an official, he was even more diligent and cautious, for fear that others would wait for opportunities to calculate behind his back. Gao Wenhan surrounded himself tightly, and no one believed it. A subordinate like Liu San can't talk about any henchmen, how can he let him catch the handle lightly?

The night was dark, the earth was swept by thick ink, and the whole world seemed to be shrouded. Although there are candles in the store, they are weak and dim. The guys are lazy, they just want to go back to sleep, and no one cares about it, and the wick is drowned by its tears.

Coincidentally, both of them drank a glass of wine, and the empty glass was placed on the table. Cai Si got up and poured a full cup for Liu San, and then also filled the cup in front of him.

Cai Si saw Liu San's face with a snicker, curious about what kind of talisman he was holding in his hand, and asked again: "Brother, don't sell Guanzi, our brother's friendship, what can't you say?" ”

Liu San smiled strangely and took out a thing from his arms, but it was wrapped in oiled paper, which shows that Liu San kept it carefully. Liu San opened the oil paper, and inside was a layer of red and green satin silk handkerchief. When I opened the silk handkerchief, it was a small page.

What kind of talisman can such a page make?

Or seeing Cai Si's surprise, Liu San picked up the paper in his hand and handed it to Cai Si and said, "Brother Cai will take a look first." ”

Cai Si looked at the paper carefully, it was no different from other papers. The same paper, even a little rougher than ordinary paper. The paper is densely written with small characters, all of which are Zhou Tang and the outside are heavy and light on the inside, and he is also a filial brother. He had a headache when he looked at it. He was originally born as a small girl. I know a few words, but I can't read Chinese and ink. After reading it over and over again, it was really hard to understand how such a piece of paper became Liu San's talisman?

Liu San smiled. explained: "Brother Cai uses it as toilet straw paper, but Shizi treats it as a treasure." Speaking of which, brother, I don't need to hide it from you. All the questions written on it are the test questions of this spring's government examination room. Because of such a thing, those scholars can win steadily. ”

Listening to the recent rumors of Pingyang Mansion, Cai Si had an epiphany: "This is written by the prefect?" ”

Liu San said: "Brother Cai guessed correctly, it was the adult who wrote it himself, and asked me to bring it out to the scholars in the examination room." He tilted his head. Said proudly: "Fortunately, my brother has a good brain, so he found someone to copy a copy, but he kept the adult's one." You said. Does this count as an amulet? ”

In just a moment, all kinds of thoughts surged in Cai Si's mind. He was deeply jealous that Gao Wenhan had slandered him as a thief and drove him out of the house. For several years, he opened a money bank. Elevate status. is still just a rich man in Pingyang, compared with Gao Wenhan, the head of a government, but he is still a dog under the rule of others. In front of him, it is a good opportunity, he has to seize this opportunity to knock Gao Wenhan to the ground, and let him know that the little guy will also get ahead one day.

Thinking so, his face pretended not to care. Gently pushed the note to Liu San, and said disdainfully: "Brother doesn't know much about this." However, Master Gao is a dignified fourth-grade official. Brother is just a small servant in his house, can this piece of paper make him listen to you? He shook his head slightly, but said no more.

Liu San said angrily: "Brother Cai, don't believe it. Now, there is a Qing Gege in Jingli and lives in Yuelai Inn. A few days ago, I went to the house to investigate this matter, but it was thanks to the adult's composure that he didn't show his feet. If the brother takes out this note, the adult will be dead. ”

Cai Si sighed and said, "It's a pity, it's a pity." ”

The second monk Liu Sanzhang was puzzled and asked, "What's the pity?" ”

Cai Si said: "If the lord dismounts, what is the meaning of this note in the hands of my brother?" It's just a piece of waste paper. It's not that my brother said, my brother has a way to get rich here, do you want it, brother? ”

Liu San hurriedly said: "Why not?" Who still thinks silver is hot? Besides, my brother wants to buy a larger yard, but he lacks money in his hand, and he is worried. The brother knew that Brother Cai was making money well, and he didn't say that he would bring his brother along. ”

Cai Si made a fool of himself, but at this time he didn't say anything more. He raised the wine glass in front of him and drank it, taking two bites of food. Liu San was impatient and urged: "Brother Cai is talking about it." No matter what, as long as you can make money, the brothers will agree. ”

Cai Si paused, looked at Liu San and said, "Brother wants the note in my brother's hand." ”

Liu San asked, "What does Brother Cai want this note for?" ”

Cai Si replied: "I have my own use, you just say to give it or not." The elder brother did not ask for his brother in vain, and the elder brother gave the brother five hundred taels of silver to buy this note. ”

Hearing that there were five hundred taels of silver, Liu San's eyes instantly flashed with a strange brilliance. He didn't seem to believe that the note was worth so much money. Before, Gao Wenhan accepted the money, wrote the joints of the examination room on a slip of paper, and ordered Liu San to send it to the scholars. At that time, Liu San was not having a good time in the house, and the eldest grandmother kept staring at him, asking him to tell the old man of his whereabouts at any time. The old man went to Xinghuayuan a few times, and was known by the grandmother, and was scratched a few times by the grandmother's long nails. The old man was angry, thinking that Liu San was informing, and beat Liu San with more than 100 boards, only to crack the skin and flesh. Liu San was angry and didn't dare to speak, so he had to endure it.

On that day, the old man ordered him to go out to deliver a note, and he had the intention to keep a copy, and said in his heart, when the old man embarrassed him again, he could take out the note and threaten the old man's subordinates to be merciful. Today, I don't want to be able to sell it for five hundred taels of silver. With these five hundred taels of silver, he can buy a few acres of land and go home to serve his old mother well, why should he be angry in the house?

He was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Brother Cai is it true? We can't laugh. ”

Cai Si immediately took out a silver ticket from his arms, which was five hundred taels of silver. handed over the silver ticket to Liu San, let him see it clearly, and said generously: "When did my brother talk about it?" This is the silver ticket that the money bank of the capital division redeems at the sight of the ticket, and this is given to the brother. ”

Liu San hurriedly took the silver ticket, looked at the front and back, carefully put it in his arms, and finally pushed the note in his hand in front of Cai Si, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Brother Cai!" For fear that Cai Si would regret it, he hurriedly recruited a partner to settle the accounts.

After settling the wine money, Liu San got up and said, "There is still something in the brother's mansion, so I'll go back." Brother Cai was not in a hurry, he drank slowly, and the wine money was counted in my account. ”

Cai Si didn't stop him and let him leave. When Liu San just left, he also got up and went downstairs slowly.

The guy followed and sent it out, and said in a loud voice: "Master is good to go, be careful when it's dark." ”

Cai Si replied unhurriedly: "It's okay, my home is very close." ”

It turned out that the courtyards of Tonglai Shun and Cai Si were only separated by three or four households. It is only a hundred and ten steps to the front of the house. Four or five small servants sat around in front of the door, shouting and shouting. Needless to say, the gang is playing cards again. The night was long, and they had to pass the time.

Cai Si coughed deliberately. The little guys were startled, put away their cards, and got up to salute. Cai Si pretended not to see it and went straight to the door. Most of the people in the house were asleep, and the courtyard was empty, and the shadows of the trees made the courtyard look even more lonely. Cai Si walked through the second gate alone, but inside was where his family lived. The little maids here can't come in, and most of them are maids and grandmothers.

There is still no one at the second gate, and occasionally there are one or two bangzi calls, but it is the third watch. Piaoxiang must have gone to bed early by this time. It's okay to sleep, at least I can't smell myself and mess around with myself. He drove to the east wing, gently pushed the door, and bolted it from the inside, just as he thought. Cai Si didn't want to alarm her, so he slowly prepared to go to the West Wing to make do with it for the night.

At this time, the door opened, and the big girl Huan Wu'er next to Piaoxiang came out and said, "Grandma is waiting for the master, come in." ”

Cai Si's heart suddenly burst into his heart, it's so late, Piaoxiang hasn't slept yet, is there a close matter to discuss with him? The reason why he was able to open a money bank was mostly because his father-in-law knew people with his discernment, and thought that Cai Si could make his daughter live a good life, so he married his baby daughter Piaoxiang to him. After Piaoxiang entered the door, she was quite insightful, and it was her behind-the-scenes idea to open a money bank. Unfortunately, she went back to the kiln on a whim last night, but she knew about it, and without saying a word, she kicked him out.

But he also knew that Piaoxiang was not such a person with a small belly. It's just a little warning, but it's not so angry that it's like this. He thought and stepped into the room. At this time, the inner room was already lit up. On a mahogany inlaid ruyi moire bed, a silk matte cyan luo hangs out of the window, revealing a thin brocade quilt embroidered red. The fragrance is covered under the brocade quilt, and a pair of slender toes are exposed at the end of the bed.

Cai Si was waiting for the pair of slender feet to be in a daze, not wanting to slip into the quilt and leave a little reverie in the air. Cai Si followed and looked, only to see that Wu'er had already helped Piaoxiang up, leaning on a large soft pillow, and her hair hung softly behind her head.

Seeing Cai Si, Piaoxiang frowned slightly, and said angrily: "Where are you going to drink cat urine until this time?" ”

Cai Si accompanied the smiling face, took a deep stroke, and sang in his mouth: "The husband has saluted the lady!" ”

Piaoxiang snorted for a while, and said bluntly like a broken bean: "Don't talk nonsense, I have something serious to ask you." Did you know that there is a Gege living in the Yuelai Inn, but he came to check on Gao Wenhan? I can tell you, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, you can be careful, the success or failure of the matter is only in this case. ”

When Cai Si heard this, the smile on his face became brighter and brighter, this good sage even inquired about this. Cai Si leaned over, sat on the edge of the bed, and kissed her on the cheek while she wasn't paying attention. Ren Piaoxiang was heroic, and couldn't help blushing slightly, and said angrily: "You actually did that unserious, you should have an idea and see how to end him." ”

The back of his head was gentle, but Wu'er came up with hot tea, handed a cup of tea to Piaoxiang first, and then gave the tea to Cai Si. Piaoxiang stretched out her thin hand as tender as a green onion to uncover the tea lid, Cai Si hurriedly went to blow on the tea bowl, and said attentively: "Burn your mouth carefully, I'll blow it for you." ”

Piaoxiang smiled and said, "What's the best thing to offer if you're not in the mood?" Do you have an idea in your belly? (To be continued......)
