Chapter Twenty-Nine: Who the Hell?
After thinking it through, there is something to do.
Han Xiufeng didn't dare to delay for a moment, ran into the torture room and borrowed a pen and paper to write a note, and when the ink was dry, he went to find a familiar little guy in the county office, and asked the little guy to take the opportunity to go to the second hall to add tea to the old man, and secretly stuffed the note to Master Gu, until the little guy came out of the second hall and nodded, which was relieved.
The next thing I could do was to wait, but I didn't expect to wait for most of the day.
The cloud board was knocked seven times, and the bamboo bang was knocked once, which was the evening bang, and it was a signal that the county government was going to close. After waiting for a while, the cloud board and the bamboo stick rang again, five times and two times respectively, and the other elder of the eldest man came to the sixth room, and took back the paperwork written today in each room as usual.
The eldest master has not sent anyone to pass the word, saying that he will not be promoted to the hall at night, but Master Gu and the guest head of the Huguang Hall are still in the second hall and have not come out, so it can be seen that they still have to talk, and they don't know what the result of the meeting will be. It was useless to be in a hurry, and seeing that the door was about to close, Han Xiufeng could only go out with the six-room scribes.
As soon as he bypassed the Yimen, Pan Er, who was stopped by the door and couldn't go in again when he came out in the morning, greeted him: "Fourth brother, why did you come out at this time, how is the matter going?" ”
"This is not the place to talk, let's go, let's go ahead and talk."
"Okay, there is a restaurant in front of me, and the eighth master and the husband from Chaotianmen are also there, all waiting for you."
"Let's go!"
Han Xiufeng followed Pan Er to Sifang Street and walked into a restaurant, where the eighth master and Jiang Liu were really waiting, and when they saw him, they got up to greet him.
"It's all your own, don't be so polite." Han Xiufeng beckoned everyone to sit down, and then turned around and said, "Third aunt, bring me a bowl of Dandan noodles." ”
"I know, I'll be right away."
"Fourth brother, what did the county master say?" Jiang Liu asked eagerly.
couldn't explain it to them, Han Xiufeng could only persuade him, and pretended to be relaxed while wiping the table: "The eldest master hasn't spoken yet, but it looks like the situation has taken a turn for the better." It's useless for you to be anxious, now you have to wait, and when Master Gu comes out of the yamen, you'll know what's going on. ”
"Master Gu hasn't come out here yet, and Master Gu helped the eldest head to ask the county master for a day?" The eighth master asked subconsciously.
"That's why you're asking for the right person."
"Master Gu is really a bodhisattva, no wonder he can be rich and rich!"
"Yes, good Samaritans will always be rewarded." Han Xiufeng smiled, and then said, "Sixth brother, you call someone to go to the yamen to keep an eye on, otherwise we won't know if Master Gu comes out." ”
"No need to call someone, I'll just go."
"Wait," Han Xiufeng looked at the sky outside and explained, "Why should Master Gu go back after a while so late?" Hurry up and hire a sedan chair and let the sedan chair driver wait at the yamen. ”
"Okay, okay, I'll go." Jiang Liu ran to the door, turned around and said, "Shanzi, I'll go to the sedan chair, you go to the yamen to keep an eye on." ”
……
Two husbands were gone, and four were left.
Han Xiufeng didn't eat lunch, he was hungry, he picked up chopsticks to eat as soon as the dandan noodles were brought to the table, and he didn't look up until he drank the last mouthful of soup and said, "Eighth master, I asked someone to bring the pot helmet into the class room." The elder of the eldest man was staring outside with Zhang Biao, and I couldn't get in, so I didn't see the big head. ”
"Just take it in, by the way, do you know if he suffered?"
"Your boss can rest assured, the eldest master has not been tried, so naturally he will not be tortured."
"What about the others?"
"It's the same, it's all locked up in the class room, including those turtle sons of the Tea Gang."
The more the eighth master thought about it, the more confused he became, and he couldn't help asking: "Just take people but don't promote them, what does the eldest master mean?" ”
Han Xiufeng wiped the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "This is a good thing. ”
The eighth master couldn't figure out what was so good about this, and just as he was about to say something, a porter hurriedly ran in, held the table and said, "Eighth master, second brother, the turtle sons of the tea gang are all in the teahouse diagonally opposite!" ”
"How many are coming?" The short man asked, shriveling up.
"More than a dozen, all of them are husbands."
"No one else?"
"I didn't see it, or I'll take a look."
"Don't go," Han Xiufeng grabbed the porter who reported the news, looked up and said, "If you guessed correctly, they are also here to wait for news, but we are waiting for Master Gu, and they are waiting for the guest head of the Huguang Guild Hall." Besides, what kind of place is this, this is the yamen, and they don't dare to make trouble here if they dare to borrow a few of them. ”
"Fourth brother, it's not that you don't know, they are dead, and they will definitely not give up."
"Second brother, what do you want?"
"Call people, call more people!"
Han Xiufeng was furious, and his face suddenly turned correct: "If you shout at them, you won't shout, call all the people over, even if you don't do it, the county master will think that you are going to make trouble!" Don't look at what kind of place this is, the front is the county office, and a few steps further is the government office is the provincial office. It's troublesome enough to make a fuss, and if you make trouble again, you will send the big head to the palace of Hades! ”
Although the eighth master has never seen the world, he has lived for a long time, and he weighed the severity, and hurriedly said: "Erxi, sit down, listen to the four babies, don't be confused." ”
"Eighth master, I'm worried about ......"
"I said that this is the yamen, what is there to worry about?"
The sedan car shop relies on the business work of several nearby yamen, so it is not far away. As he was talking, Jiang Liu ran back out of breath, and the hired sedan chair driver also arrived with the sedan chair.
There were many people in the restaurant, Han Xiufeng simply went outside to wait, and the husbands of the Sichuan Gang, such as the eighth master and Jiang Liu, also followed, but as soon as they went out, they met the husbands of the tea gang.
When the enemy family met, they were very red-eyed, but they were afraid that this was at the yamen, and the two groups of people were quite restrained, and no one dared to act rashly.
A husband of the Tea Gang recognized Han Xiufeng and shouted from afar: "Hey, isn't this the fourth brother, why did you get together with the Sichuan Gang and stop working in the Yamen?" ”
Han Xiufeng thought to himself why he was so unlucky, so he could only walk up and smile and say, "Who do I think, it turned out to be Uncle Zhu, and you are also here for yesterday's incident?" ”
"What else can I do?"
"Why do you say you are doing this, you are all begging for a living in the streets and alleys of the docks, you don't see you when you look up and look down, how good it is to make money with harmony, why do you always fight and kill. Look at it, it's like this, dead dead, wounded. ”
"It's they who don't follow the rules!"
"Uncle Zhu, everyone is dead, and everyone is injured, what's the use of saying this now? Besides, if a slap doesn't make a sound, you two gangs won't be able to say anything about anyone. ”
The head of the tea gang couldn't talk about Han Xiufeng, so he simply asked: "Han Si, I also watched you grow up, and our tea gang usually treats you well." I haven't moved around in the past two years, and when your uncle was in the county office, we didn't invite your uncle to eat and drink. Give me a happy word, are you helping our tea gang or helping them Sichuan gang in this matter? ”
The people of the Tea Gang are black, and the porter of the Tea Gang is just begging for a living in Ba County, once he commits a crime, he will slip away, and run back to his hometown to hide even if the yamen asks, he may not be able to find it, Han Xiufeng does not dare and does not want to offend them easily, and immediately smiled: "Uncle Zhu, just now you said that you watched me grow up, and you know best how many catties and taels my Han Si has." Don't say that you're just helping in the house, even if it's a house, I can't say anything about the affairs of the two of you. The yamen is the master who has the final say, and I am just helping to find out the news, help deliver prison food, and make a little money to open my mouth. ”
