Chapter 128: Gathering at the Guild Hall (2)

As Liu Juren expected, while chatting, Qian Junchen and Ren He brothers arrived.

Han Xiufeng greeted him with a smile, Ren He arched his hand in return, and without a kind word, he walked into the hall with Qian Junchen. Second Master Fei originally wanted to help them release their suspicions, but seeing that Ren He was so unkind, he pretended not to see him and then talked to Wen Youyu and other businessmen.

Although Han Xiufeng had a cold ass on his hot face, he was not very embarrassed.

The embarrassment was Ren Er, the hall was full of masters, he didn't dare to go inside, and stood in the yard stupidly, not knowing what to do or what to say.

Fei Erye has a saying that is right, it is better to settle the grievances than to settle them.

Han Xiufeng was not afraid of Ren He, but he didn't want to fight with Ren He endlessly, so he gave Pan Er a look, and walked to the door to wait for Ji Hanlin and other distinguished guests.

Although he didn't think that the Ren brothers were so easy to talk to, Pan Er still walked up and said with a smile: "Brother Ren, what are you doing outside on such a cold day." Let's go and sit in my house for a while, there's a stove in my room. ”

Ren Yan asked embarrassedly: "Brother Pan, don't you live in the East Wing?" ”

"I moved out early, and I can only set up two tables in the hall, and I can't sit down until I vacate the east wing."

"Are there so many people at night?" Ren Yan followed into the east room, stood by the fireside and pretended to be curious.

Pan Er beckoned him to sit and said with a smile: "Today I invited not only a few masters and a few shopkeepers, but also a few lords' family members, a few masters and shopkeepers in the hall, the female dependents in the east wing, and we are next door." My young master said that when we go out, we have to celebrate the New Year, although we don't go to the hall, but the wine and food at night are the same. ”

"Oh, how much money does this cost!"

"You have to spend it, and it's not every day for the New Year."

Pan Er was so enthusiastic, Ren Yan suddenly felt that he had been preconceived before, wronged him and Han Si, and didn't know how to pick it up, Pan Er said bluntly: "Brother Ren, after you left that day, my young master and I thought about what we said that afternoon, and found that it might really be a misunderstanding. ”

"What's the misunderstanding?" Let the ghost ask the god in a bad way.

"That half a pound of cinchona cream was brought from my hometown, and I thought that I would bring it to the capital to sell it for a good price, but after I arrived in the capital, I was so busy that I forgot about it. Didn't I move to the east wing that afternoon, and my young master found it when he was packing his luggage...... I did mention arsenic, but just as an analogy, you must have heard it wrong and thought that we were going to kill your brother. ”

"Brother Pan, your young master really didn't want to harm my brother?"

"Although my young master and your brother have a bit of a holiday, they won't want your brother's life. Even if my young master wants to harm your brother, he will not be stupid enough to poison the guild hall. If you don't believe me, you can ask the boss. The big brain shell is not good, he will do whatever he wants, but he will not tell nonsense. Pan Er took a sip of tea, and couldn't help but say: "But the five hundred miles of silver you paid is not unjust, a few days ago I went to a few pharmacies on the street to inquire, how can the medicine shop sell it is worth six or seven hundred taels." ”

"So...... That's really what a misunderstanding! Ren asked with a bitter face.

"I just know." Pan Er smiled, and continued: "Tell you this, it's not that my young master is afraid of your brother, but that the villagers are all out and should help each other." My young master drove you away that day because he was angry, and I feel sorry to think about it after you leave, after all, this is the Chongqing Guild Hall, as long as it is a member of the Chongqing Mansion, you can live. ”

"Brother Pan, what do you mean by that?"

"Your brother is a face-saving person, and my young master is the same, so there are some things that can only be said by me. The inn is a mixed bag, there are people everywhere, and it costs money to live there, so if you want to, you can move back, and let the past pass, as if nothing had happened. ”

Regardless of their previous suspicions, Ren Ren was a little moved, and couldn't help asking: "Brother Pan, is this what your young master means?" ”

"Nonsense, you don't want to think about it, if my young master doesn't nod, can I open this mouth?"

"Brother Pan, you treat our brother like this, I don't know what to say, I ...... I ......"

"What am I, I brought the words, you can ask your brother later." Pan Er thought for a while, and added: "When you came, you paid the museum fee and paid a month's food and tea money, if you are willing to move back, you don't have to pay the museum fee and a month's food and tea money." ”

"Okay, I'll go tell my brother about it."

"Go ahead."

……

Sending Ren Er away, Pan Er walked to the door and waited with Han Xiufeng for a few officials, and asked quietly while waiting: "Fourth brother, I told him everything I should say, do you think Ren He will move back?" ”

Han Xiufeng groaned: "It is estimated that it will be moved." ”

"How do you know?"

"It's very simple, if he doesn't come today, Ming'er will be embarrassed to go to the provincial pavilion. We gave him a step, if he didn't move back, he would gradually become estranged from the second master, He Juren, Liu Juren, and even Master Ji and Master Wang. If you don't move around in the capital, how will you get close to your hometown in the future? ”

Pan Er muttered: "I knew he would move, so I didn't give them this step." ”

Han Xiufeng patted him on the arm and said with a smile: "Brother Pan, didn't I tell you, to be an official, you must have an official reputation, and to be a person, you must have a reputation!" If we don't invite us today, Liu Juren and the second master both propose that if we don't give them a step, what will others think of us, and what will they think of us? ”

"That's right."

"It's one thing to give them the stairs down, but in the future, you have to be careful, you have to be careful. Every time he slaughters dogs, most of them are scholars, and they are people like Qian Junchen. So many sages have read books in vain, but they don't know the truth of saving the emergency and not the poor, and they must have held a grudge against us for raising two thousand taels of silver but not lending him some money. These days, I always run to Ren He, sneaky, and it must be no good thing. ”

"He turtle son dares!"

"He's so vicious, why don't you dare?" Han Xiufeng took a deep breath and muttered: "Ren Er is okay, Ren Da is far worse than Ren Er, no matter how we explain it, he won't believe it." I guess he and Qian Junchen will definitely talk about the renovation of the guild hall, so we have to be careful in the future, and don't let them grab the handle. ”

Thinking that Han Xiufeng didn't plan to make much money, and he planned it very thoroughly, Pan Er couldn't help but laugh and said, "Just because they still want to catch us, what are you kidding." ”

"There's nothing wrong with being careful, it's good to be careful." Han Xiufeng didn't think that Qian Junchen and Ren He could play any tricks, and when he saw a coachman leading the carriage into the alley, he hurriedly said: "Here, Master Ji is here!" ”
