Chapter 9 The tiger fell in Pingyang and was bullied by dogs
The document of dismissal from official office is true.
On the same day, the Chen family was expelled from the yamen.
The two husbands and wives of the Chen family, plus Chen Xiao and Long Jiuling, were a little dazed after the four of them walked out of the yamen with their burdens.
Especially Chen Xiao, he thought he was on his thighs.
But now, this is really ten years in Hedong and ten years in Hexi......
If it is known by Luo Qianqian......
"Yo? Isn't this the Chen County Ling family? ”
Chen Xiao was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, right?
Then he turned around and looked, not far away, a couple in their forties with two children, a man and a woman, and many subordinates, were looking at Chen Xiao and the four with mocking expressions.
"What? This official, don't do it? "It was the Luo family member who spoke.
The sound was very loud, and many pedestrians outside the yamen heard it and gathered around.
During this time, Chen Wenshan has done a lot of things for the people, and his reputation is very good, and suddenly I heard that he is no longer an official, and the people also feel bad.
Looking at Chen Wenshan again, his face sank, and he snorted and said, "Don't do it, I'm old, I've resigned and retired for the elderly, what's wrong?" Not convinced? ”
This is also a person who wants to die to save face and suffer crimes, but Na Luo sneered:
"Really? How did I hear that Chen County ordered you to be dismissed for corruption and bribery? ”
"Rumors, absolutely rumors!" Chen Wenshan flatly denied it.
Around, the people also discussed, thinking that Chen Wenshan could not be corrupt, right? After all, I have recently taken the initiative to pay for the people.
However, at this time, Chen Xiao pulled Chen Wenshan aside and whispered:
"I understand, it was the Luo family who harmed us and ended up like this."
Chen Wenshan was stunned for a moment, and then thought about it, there was a conflict with the Luo family during this time, and in addition, he had an accident, he had just been driven out, and it was a coincidence that the Luo family came?
Is this a coincidence? Apparently not.
Therefore, being reminded by Chen Xiaoyi, Chen Wenshan also understood, and looked back at the four members of the Naluo family, his eyes were full of anger.
At this time, Luo Qianqian, the young lady of the Luo family, chuckled, stepped forward to look at Chen Xiao and said:
"This girl said, ten years in Hedong, ten years in Hexi, don't bully girls to be poor! What's the matter, Chen Xiao, you didn't look down on me at the beginning, but now you're down, Miss Ben, do you still like you? ”
"Downcast?" Chen Xiao smiled, turned back to Chen Wenshan and said, "Dad, she said that our family is down?" ”
Chen Wenshan laughed and said: "It's just that if you don't become an official, why are you down?" My old house in Qingyang County is not smaller than your Luo family's house, right?
The silver taels I have saved over the years are not less than your Luo family's savings, right? The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, no matter how downtrod my Chen family is, it is not better than your Luo family? ”
This is true, when Chen Xiao asked his father to transfer his property a few days ago, he really saw what it means to be a corrupt official.
Good guy, there are thousands of taels of gold, and no less than tens of thousands of taels of silver, and I am afraid that the assets add up to 100,000 taels of silver.
Converted to modern times, it is equivalent to almost 100 million.
This is a lot of money, a county magistrate embezzled 100 million yuan, but he lost his official position and made a lot of money.
Of course, the money was transferred in advance by Chen Xiao with foresight, otherwise, if they were driven out of the yamen empty-handed now, I am afraid that they would really be down.
The smug faces of the four members of the Luo family eased slightly.
Thinking about it at this moment, it is really a skinny camel bigger than a horse, even if the Chen family is not an official, but the family property is not worse than the Luo family.
As a result, the smell of ridicule has become less strong.
However, Luo Qianqian was unwilling, and still said: "This is just the beginning, your Chen family is not an official anymore, in the future, can you really fight my Luo family?" ”
Chen Xiao sneered, thought about it, and suddenly said:
"This is really: the dragon swims in the shallow water and is played by shrimp, the tiger falls in Pingyang and is bullied by the dog, the cat is more male than the tiger, and the feathered phoenix is not as good as the chicken......"
After finishing speaking, he laughed, but saw that everyone around him carefully tasted this poem, and many readers thought it was very interesting.
The four members of the Luo family didn't hear the deep meaning, only to see Luo Qianqian sneering and saying: "The tiger fell in Pingyang and was bullied by dogs? Haha, you really understand your situation! ”
Chen Xiao shook his head, and suddenly, a woman walked out of the crowd.
The woman is seventeen or eighteen years old, dressed in white, a little dusty, and has an elegant and delicate temperament.
At this moment, this beautiful woman glanced at Chen Xiao with a pair of beauties, and then said to Miss Luojia:
"This young lady, I'm afraid you don't appreciate the meaning of the poem, in this poem, this son, compares himself to the dragon, tiger and phoenix.
But I compared you to the dog, chicken and shrimp, you are really scolding people and not saying dirty words, but also scolding elegantly, why do you still recognize it, Miss? ”
As soon as these words came out, the onlookers burst into laughter, and Luo Qianqian's face turned red and felt embarrassed.
Chen Xiao laughed and said, "This girl explained well! ”
The woman saluted: "The child's literary style is brilliant, and he even scolds people so poetically and picturesquely, fresh and refined, the little woman admires!" ”
Seeing this conversation between the two, Luo Qianqian's face became even more ugly, staring at Chen Xiao and saying: "It's only going to be as fast as you go, now that you don't have the identity of an official family, my Luo family will let your Chen family ruin and die!" ”
After speaking, Luo Qianqian turned around and left, and the Luo family and the son of the Luo family all snorted coldly and left.
Before leaving, the son of the Luo family glanced at Long Jiuling beside Chen Xiao, and there was a trace of greed in his eyes.
Seeing that the Luo family was angry, Chen Wenshan breathed a sigh of relief, and finally there was no shame today.
Then he looked at his son and said, "Son, why don't you know, father, you can still compose poems?" ”
Poetry? can compose poetry with a hammer, of course, you can't say that, but smile confidently:
"Am I a Penghao man?"
"Okay, what a 'how can my generation be a Penghao person', the unyielding and radical artistic conception shown by Childe's words is really shocking!" The woman in white looked at Chen Xiao with admiration.
Chen Xiao was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, right? Whatever you say, you can praise it like that?
"Childe has only learned people, and in the eyes of the little woman, it is really rare. The little girl's name is Bai Qingqing, she loves poetry and songs, and loves literary works, I wonder if the son can meet the son? ”
Chen Xiao was busy learning from the ancients: "The girl praises falsely, in Chen Xiao, I can't talk about it, I know some poetry, and the girl laughs!" ”
"Chen Gongzi is modest, right, Gongzi, I don't know where I live? The little girl came to visit another day? Bai Qingqing asked.
Chen Xiao was stunned, he didn't know where the old mansion was.
At this time, Chen Wenshan said: "I live in Qinghe Lane, Chen's house!" ”
"Thank you uncle, the little girl will come to the door another day, I'm afraid there will be a disturbance!" Bai Qingqing saluted, and then bid farewell to Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao took a deep breath, tired of talking to the ancients, and even more tired when talking to the ancient literati......
"Son, let's go, go back to the old house!" Chen Wenshan greeted.
Chen Xiao nodded, stretched out his hand and pulled Long Jiuling away.
Long Jiuling was already used to Chen Xiao holding hands, and he felt normal at this moment.
