Volume 1 Xiling Evil Young Chapter 18 The world cannot be without a son
"Childe, the county government is here!"
Hou Shigui, who had just received the news that his mother was about to arrive, was about to go out to greet his mother, but he didn't want Xiang Xu to suddenly come to the root of his ear and say this.
The county government is from the people? The second brother just left, according to the footsteps, when he is still on the road at the moment, the person will not be sent by the second brother.
If it weren't for the second brother...... What is Xie Jing looking for himself?
Even though his mother's trip was still far away, Hou Shigui was not in a hurry to go out to greet him, but only said:
"Beckoned."
Xiang Xu came out in response, and after a while, he brought a middle-aged scribe wearing a scholar's green clothes.
This scribe Hou Shigui also remembered that he was Xie Jing's confidant, the dog-headed military advisor Wang Hou.
Because he once made a crooked poem in front of himself and Xie Jing, he was ridiculed and ridiculed by 'himself'.
This Wang Hou entered the back room, and when he saw that Hou Shigui was about to get up to greet him, he hurriedly exclaimed:
"How dare you get up, sit down, don't be tormented."
After finishing speaking, he personally stepped forward to support Hou Shigui's arm with a flattering face, and helped Hou Shigui to sit on the chair like supporting a terminally ill old man.
Seeing Wang Hou's appearance, Xiang Xu and Bao Ji were full of unhappiness.
I thought that this literati who can only flatter others is not as good as me and other martial artists.
However, Hou Shigui had long known that Wang Hou's temperament was like this, and after inviting him to sit down, he asked:
"Mr. Wang is here, what do you have to teach you?"
Hey? This kid didn't slander me as Wang Shixian? Why are you so polite?
If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, Wang Hou was afraid that Hou Shigui would come up with some bad ideas to trick himself, and only after mentioning the spirit of the twelve-point did he give up his hand and replied:
"Don't hide it from my son, this morning, I wanted to have dinner, but I saw that Qin Luan broke into the yamen with a sword, and I was curious and kept up with ......."
After listening to most of it, Hou Shigui realized that this guy was here to report and wanted to sell him a good one.
But it's not surprising, now that Xie Jing only lives in the boudoir and doesn't ask about political affairs, the second brother has become a real and nameless Linben order.
This Wang Hou is just Xie Jing's dog-headed military advisor, which is equivalent to Xie Jing's privately hired workers, not to mention the county government establishment, not even temporary workers.
When Xie Jing was in charge, he didn't need to worry about anything, but now the person in charge of the county government is the second brother, and he, a dog-headed military advisor, is not a righteous gentleman like the second brother.
So, he wants to cool off under my big tree.
Although Hou Shigui knew it in his heart, he didn't break it, and only listened to Wang Hou after speaking:
"That Qin Luan was angry, and after taking the sword and leaving, I was afraid that she would be unhappy to find Gongzi in anger, so I thought about informing Gongzi, and Gongzi should have a precaution.
After all, in his heart, Gongzi is a model of morality and a model of benevolence and righteousness. Who will save the people?! ”
Wang Hou spoke generously, and in the end, he even shed a few lines of old tears:
"If the son has a mistake, he will lose a confidant, and it will be boring to live alone!"
Hou Shigui glanced at Bao and Xiang, who were stunned and shocked, and thought that this literati's kung fu is much better than yours.
also put on a touched look, walked to Wang Hou twice, and tried to squeeze out a few tears to make his eyes red:
"How can he be in the lower part of the world? Let my husband tear for me! Xiang Xu, take Mr. Wang to get fifty taels of silver to buy new clothes! ”
Fifty taels!
Wang Hou followed Xie Jing, and he only had one or two lines of silver per month.
As soon as this Hou Shigui made a move, he was fifty months and more than four years of money!
Wang Hou didn't expect that he would cry for a while, and he only hated that he didn't hit his head on the ground just now.
But this Hou Shigui is getting more and more stupid, hehe, with his IQ, as long as I use a little means, don't say fifty taels, I'm afraid five hundred taels is not impossible in the future!
Although he looked down on this stupid big man with money and nowhere to spend it, Wang Hou still showed a grateful look and wanted to refuse.
Unexpectedly, Hou Shigui ignored him at all, and only said something in Xiang Xu's ear.
That Xiang Xu directly pulled Wang Hou out.
Seeing Xiang Xu's rudeness, Wang Hou scolded in his heart:
What kind of master there is, what kind of subordinate there is, reckless martial artist! Just like his master, he doesn't know etiquette!
Although he was evil in his heart, Wang Hou didn't dare to show it, he just said good things about Hou Shigui in Xiang Xu's ear.
After arriving at the treasury, Xiang Xu took out Hou Shigui's handwritten book, and after spending fifty taels of silver with Mr. Ledger, he put it in Wang Hou's arms.
Wang Hou turned out to be heavy in silver, and there was another cry on the spot:
"The son treats him so kindly, he will repay him with death, and he will never give up!!"
But he smiled in his heart: Hou Da fool, you can go and don't be punished for adultery, otherwise who will I go to take the silver to spend? Hahaha!
He wanted to kneel down and kowtow in the direction of Hou Shigui's wing room on the spot.
was stopped by Xiang Xu:
"Wait, it's not too late to sign the receipt before kneeling."
"Collect ...... Receipt? ”
"Nonsense! This is fifty taels, not fifty wen, my housewife will return, if you ask where the money goes, the son must also have an explanation. ”
When Wang Hou heard this, he also reasoned like this.
And what tricks can the big fool play? In terms of resourcefulness, how can you play with me?
Without hesitation, he signed the receipt, pressed his handprint, and then left happily with the silver.
Here, Hou Shigui took Bao Ji and the housekeeper and others to welcome his mother.
glanced at Lu Xing'an listlessly, this was the first time Hou Shigui had seen him since Ru Chunmei's death.
I haven't seen him for a while, but this guy has lost some weight, and the whole person looks sick.
However, this kid's riding skills are unparalleled, and he can't just be wasted.
Hou Shigui's heart moved, and he said:
"Hit the bar, Uncle Lu said you haven't eaten for a few days?"
It is Lu Xing'an's word, taken from the poem "Wanqiu": Kanqi is the way of Wanqiu, or the word that his father personally took for him.
Lu Gaoyi glanced over here, but he didn't plan to come up and interject.
Lu Xingan didn't raise his head, and bowed:
"There is a memory of Lao Gongzi, a little food, or no food."
Hou Shigui smiled slightly, raised his hand and pointed at the saber on Bao Ji's waist:
"If you want to die, wouldn't it be quicker to use a sword? Why do you have to be like this, mother-in-law, is it the husband who did it? ”
As soon as these words fell, Lu Gaoyi became anxious, and even Lu Xingan raised his deep and indifferent black eyes to look at Hou Shigui.
Before he could speak, Hou Shigui's voice followed:
"If you go to the underworld, Chunmei asks you how you died, and you say, you don't think about tea and rice, and starve to death.
Do you guess Chunmei still has the ancestor of your Lu family, but will she still look up to you? ”
"What does Childe mean?"
Lu Xingan felt that since Ye Leng's incident, his little son had become more and more incomprehensible.
Although he was evil before, as long as the little boy made a move, he knew what evil the little boy was going to do next.
Can ...... now He only felt that the little boy was full of fog and couldn't see through.
Hou Shigui said:
"I'll only ask once, what should your parents do if you have a useful body, a good man?"
