@: Chapter one hundred and nine

On the bank of the Xincheng River, Cross Street, here is the most lively and prosperous place in the southwest of Yangzhou.

A few months ago, there was a fire here, many people thought that this place would become depressed from now on, but they did not expect that after the fire, the Zhang family paid money to renovate all the houses facing the street, and after the new house was repaired, many businesses settled in immediately, and the prosperity here was more than before.

Not only that, after the Zhang family's large layout here, it also attracted painting boats to assemble in the cross street, and when night fell, dozens of painting boats leaned against the shore near the cross street, which especially made the popularity of this area greatly increased.

Yingchun Pavilion painting boat is more famous in the cross street, the old bustard Wang Cuihong Wang's mother used to be a red person on the thin West Lake, and later married from Liang, and once disappeared.

But recently re-out of the mountain, the shot is extraordinary, running the Spring Pavilion, there are more than 100 girls under his hands!

"Mother Wang, you just have to rest today, there are so many people taking care of you below, what else are you worried about? said all the time, blessed people are people like mom and you, now that Song Sanye hurts you, do you say that silver is better than running water to earn at home? ”

In the attic of the painting boat, the old lady was waiting for Wang Cuihong to make up, and said flattering words carelessly, Wang Cuihong smiled at the corner of her mouth and said: "You old thing, who is chewing the root of your tongue?" I'm a man with a husband's family, besides, I'm old, where do men like me? You should be one of those little girls outside, you can always fascinate people! ”

"Oh, look at my mouth! Damn it! Damn" The old woman paused, and then changed her words and said: "However, if Mother Wang says that she is an old pearl yellow, it is really a bit too much, you look at the delicate beauty in this mirror, and the man will tremble when he looks at it!"

Those little girls outside are also good-looking, but young girls are like raw cucumbers, where is there Mother Wang, you can serve men like that? ”

Wang Cuihong said this to her grandmother, her eyes stared at the mirror in front of her, the person in the mirror was really tight-skinned, her face was good, and she didn't look like a woman who was almost forty years old at all.

Wang Cuihong's mood is becoming more and more comfortable, women, it's really not worth it to be lucky. A few years ago, Congliang married a wreck, and after a few years of hard life, I thought that this life would be over.

But I never expected that a painting boat was opened on the side of Xinchenghe Cross Street, and Wang Cuihong came over with the intention of giving it a try to find a job to do, and it was immediately reused.

Wang Cuihong found something to do, having income is the first step, and greater luck is still to come, Song Sanye just fell in love with her, gave her silver and let her wrap the painting boat, the usual business has Song Sanye's face, Yingchun Pavilion immediately opened the gap with other painting boats.

No, in less than a month, Wang Cuihong secretly calculated the accounts, and her net income was more than 1,000 taels of silver.

"Women, be kind to yourself! Don't grieve yourself! Wang Cuihong muttered.

The door of the attic was pushed open with a "squeak", and the little guy beat Qian'er and said, "Mother Wang, there is a distinguished guest coming to the door, I must see you!" ”

"Don't you see your mother combing her hair? What kind of distinguished guest has such a big score? Do you have to see Wang's mother? The old woman snorted coldly and scolded.

The little girl was slightly stunned for a moment, and her eyes looked at Wang Cuihong.

Wang Cuihong waved her hand and said, "Go, go, just say that I'm not here today, it's not enough to have so many girls to accompany me below?" The old lady doesn't pick up customers, what's the good thing to see? ”

Wang Cuihong sent the little guy away, just about to speak, but couldn't help but exclaim, she suddenly stood up, at the door of the attic, there was a middle-aged man in Confucian clothes, looking at the other party's face, white face without beard, between gestures, full of aura, this ......

"Xiaohong, I haven't seen you for a few years, don't come to harm, you're terrible now, it's very rare for people to see you, is it that the business is getting bigger, and you can't look down on us stinky readers?" Come humanely.

Wang Cui's face turned red, but his eyes stared at each other like hooks, and said, "Is the third master back?" I thought that the third master had left Yangzhou in the past few years, and he had won the champion in the capital, and was left by the emperor's side to listen to the errand! I didn't expect you to come back today. ”

"Haha!" The person who came laughed, he was no one else, naturally it was Zhang Chengbei, he saw Wang Cuihong, it was really an old lover to meet, and his heart was very happy.

Looking at Wang Cuihong's appearance, it hasn't changed much in the past few years, it seems that she has become more temperamental and flavorful. He suddenly felt it in his heart, and said:

"Xiaohong, even if I stay in the capital, I still think of you in my heart, you see, I just returned to Yangzhou from outside, and the first thing I did was to inquire about your news, no, the hard work paid off, and I finally found you!"

Wang Cuihong's eyes were about to drip water, she was just thinking about her own time, but she didn't expect that greater luck would really come.

The status of this master in front of her is so high, he is the first person she has met since she started her career, what is Song Sanye compared to this master? Wang Cuihong looked at Zhang Chengbei's appearance, and knew that the other party was tempted, and years of experience told her that today was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

"Third master, don't say that, Cuihong is not as good as usual now, she has already married a good man and has a husband's family! Don't look at me in this painting boat, but now I'm just doing business behind the scenes, the third master is here, I'll arrange for two girls to serve you well, okay? Wang Cuihong said.

She is a veteran, of course she knows how to arouse Zhang Chengbei's interest, and she also knows Zhang Chengbei's preferences very well, sure enough, as soon as she said this, Zhang Chengbei's eyes became even hotter.

The old lady on the side was a person who came over, and she didn't know what was going to happen next when she saw this posture, so she pulled up Wang Cuihong's hair indiscriminately, and then immediately said goodbye.

As soon as she left, there were only lonely men and women left in the house......

……

When night fell, the lights on the Xincheng River were dim, but the upstairs of Fusheng Bookstore was quiet.

The sound of hurried footsteps broke the silence, and Zhang Jing personally held the lantern in his hand, trotted through the courtyard, and then went up to the small building, pushed open the only room where the light was lit, and slipped in like a loach.

There was obvious excitement in his tone, and he said, "Brother Zheng, you are really amazing!" This thing is done, Wang Cuihong left the third uncle in the house, hey! ”

In the room, Lu Zheng sat on a chair, holding a pen in his hand to write, he finished writing the last word, put the pen into the pen holder, and said: "What about Liang Decai?" Meet him now! ”

Zhang Jing pushed open the blinds, put the lantern in the window, and whistled outside.

After a while, a middle-aged man with a short figure and a thin face and rat-eyes came in respectfully from outside, and as soon as he entered the door, he saluted extremely respectfully: "Liang Decai has only seen Lu Gongzi." ”

Lu Zheng laughed and said, "Brother Liang, you're welcome!" No matter how polite it is, it's a real loss to you this time, if it weren't for your timely reporting, my life would be over! That cousin of yours wants me to die! ”

"Shadow, take out the gift I prepared!"

Ying'er was holding a plate, and there were two ingots of yellow, orange and orange gold in the plate, and she handed the gold to Liang Decai in an orderly manner, and Liang Decai's eyes were straight.

He's been a slave all his life, and he's never seen so much gold! He took the tray with a trembling hand and said:

"Brother Zheng'er is benevolent and righteous, many people in the Zhang family have received your favor, this time the third master came back, he was determined to be unfavorable to you, my cousin was confused, and found Song Sanbar, who was a splash, hey, I didn't do anything, but I couldn't see it, and passed a little news to the second master, and I was really ashamed that the son treated me like this."

Lu Zheng sighed lightly and said, "Leaving his hometown and sending people under the fence is really like duckweed." I've heard of Song Sanbar's name, I heard that Brother Liang is very familiar with him, can you help me talk? ”

Liang Decai showed embarrassment on his face, and said: "Master Lu, don't you know, although Song Sanye is a bad person, he is very well-behaved, he will definitely be able to do things if he receives money."

Otherwise, where would he be able to hold on to so much territory? Therefore, Lu Gongzi, you should dispel the idea of befriending him, and the best way is to leave Yangzhou at the right time, so that you can ensure safety. ”

Lu Zheng stood up, paced back and forth, and after a long while, a helpless look appeared on his face and said, "Leave Yangzhou, that's not good!" Brother Liang, even if there is only a 1 in 10,000 chance, I have to give it a try! I hope my brother can help me! ”

When Lu Zheng said this, he leaned to Liang Decai's side, and said in a low voice: "I heard that Song Sanye has a good relationship with Mother Wang of Yingchun Pavilion, and this Mother Wang has entanglements with other men in private, just now, Mother Wang and the man hooked up again, brother, you go and give Song Sanye a breath in this matter, I don't expect this matter to be a stepping stone, I just hope that Song Sanye can take a picture with me, okay?" ”

As soon as Liang Decai heard Lu Zheng say this, his mood became relaxed, he was really afraid that Lu Zheng would raise his requirements for him, if that was the case, he would have to throw away all the gold he got today.

But Lu Zheng's request is too simple, isn't it just that he doesn't have a long eye to remember Song Sanye's friend? What's the matter with reporting this news?

It's just that Lu Zheng is indeed too naïve, thinking that he can have a relationship with Song Sanye through this incident? Song Sanye knew that his woman was sleeping with someone, and he had the heart to kill, at this time Lu Zheng came up, didn't that fall into his arms?

However, Liang Decai is not ready to say this to Lu Zheng, the most important thing is to hold the gold in his hand tightly, Lu Zheng's life and death, where can he help a little minion? Don't say it's him, even Liang Shi can't save Lu Zheng!

Liang Decai came down from Lu Zheng's upstairs, hid the gold, acted immediately, went straight to Song Sanye's side, took people's money, and wanted to help others, Liang Decai is a moral person!
