Chapter 4: Frost Falls (5 I)
Chapter 4: Frost Fall (Part 5)
This inconspicuous restaurant outside Anfu Gate was opened by several eunuchs with very good backgrounds in the palace, and if you want to go in and drink, you need a special person to introduce you. Before going to the banquet, write down the things you need to ask your father-in-law to do and hand them over to the intermediary. The proprietor of the hotel will clearly mark the price according to the difficulty of the matter. Therefore, you don't need to meet with the person who is doing the work, as long as they are willing to allow you to set the drink, the matter is half the battle. After the meal, hand over the "banquet money" to the shopkeeper, and then you can go home and listen to the letter! The entrusted matter, within half a month, will have results!
There can be such a thing!
Wang Xun boasted that he had been in Beijing for more than ten years, but he didn't even know about such a restaurant! After listening to Jia Chang reveal the mystery of that meal, he was so ashamed that he almost didn't find a crack in the ground to get into. Therefore, he didn't bother to explore the truth of these words, said goodbye to the other party, lowered his head and went home to "listen to the letter".
didn't let him wait too long, just after noon the next day, Wang Xun was in the bedroom with his concubine Ziluo to pack up his clothes when he went to the barracks, the little servant Wang Xiang hurriedly ran into the back house, and shouted at the window from a distance: "Little Hou Ye, little Hou Ye, big joy, big joy, come out, Yuwen Gongzi is out!" ”
"Who'......?" Wang Xun almost didn't react, pushed open the window, and shouted outside: "Come close and say, who is coming out?" ”
"Yuwen Gongzi, Yuwen Zhi!" The little maid Wang Xiang looked at the two maids who were standing under the flower gallery at the door doing needlework, and gently stuck out his tongue, "The little one didn't mean to disturb the little marquis." It was Yuwen Gongzi who was released from prison. People are tossed, that's a miserable! I just knocked on the door in front, and I was almost beaten out by Wang Fu and them as Hanako! ”
"Less nonsense, where is he now?" Wang Xun's heart swelled with a burst of ecstasy, and with a hard press of his hand, he jumped out of the window directly, "Quick, take me to see him!" ”
Wang Fu and the others were afraid that he would bring a bad luck into the door, so they took him to the West Cross Courtyard to take a bath and change clothes. Aunt Yun ordered someone to cook meat porridge and red date soup, and let me go to the living room in the front yard to eat it later! ”
"Then I'll meet him in the drawing-room! You find a few clothes that I haven't worn and send them to Zida first. By the way, inform Wang Ji again, let him ride a fast horse out, and report good news to the two brothers of the Qin family, Xiao Zhang Tanhua, and Ma Fang's side! Wang Xun thought about it, and felt that Aunt Yun's arrangement was also reasonable, so he pushed Wang Xiang and walked to the living room with his legs raised.
"Alas, alas!" Wang Xiang agreed, raised his legs and ran to the West Cross Courtyard for the distinguished guests to rest. While running, he muttered in his mind: "No one has to worry about it this time, since Wannian County is willing to let him out, there is no ,......."
Wang Xun smiled and ignored the chatter of the people. Although he has not been affected in any way these days, since Sun Zhutou came, the whole family has a handful of sweat in their hands. Now that the rain has finally passed, there is no need for everyone to be a little arrogant because of their happiness.
After a short time, Yuwen was brought back by the servants after grooming. As soon as he entered the living room door and saw Wang Xun, he immediately knelt on the ground with a thud, grinning and crying, "Second brother, second brother, I thought I would never see you again in this life!" ”
In Wang Xun's heart, he has actually been depressed that Yu Wenzhi caused such a big thing behind his back, and he wanted to take the opportunity to meet again to clean up the other party. Hearing this, his heart softened, he took a few steps forward, grabbed Yu Wenzhi's arm with both hands, and pulled it up hard, "You, you finally came out." Can it be changed in the future? Don't let everyone worry about you anymore! ”
"I know it's wrong, I know it's wrong!" Yu Wenzhi took Wang Xun's hand, and snot and tears flowed down together, "I was also confused for a while, so I wanted to hug the thick legs of the Yang family." I will never be stupid again in the future, second brother, don't annoy me! ”
"Brother for so many years, how could I really annoy you!" Wang Xun sighed quietly and said in a low voice. What happened in the recent period of time can be said to have given him a new understanding of himself and the world outside him. In a way, it's not entirely bad, at least deep down it's not as ignorant as it used to be.
"Thanks to the second brother. I'm in prison, gritting my teeth all the time. I just believe that the second brother won't blame me. The second brother will definitely do everything he can to save me. Second brother, don't worry, no matter how much money you spend, I will definitely pay you back in the future! Yu Wenzhi withdrew a hand to wipe his snot and said intermittently.
"Who scarces your money!" Wang Xun threw away the other party's other hand and said loudly. "Keep those two stinky coppers and buy yourself a coffin. Next time you get into trouble, don't bother me again! ”
"Second brother......." Yu Wenzhi was stunned for a moment, and looked at Wang Xun with teary eyes. Immediately, he realized that he had made a mistake again, raised his hand, and gave himself a big mouth, "Look at my virtue." Just know a money. Second brother, I won't mention the money. Your benefits to me, I will remember in my heart for the rest of my life! ”
"Don't let me jump down!" Wang Xun glanced at him, crying and laughing. Yuwen Zhi is a scoundrel at all, and he can't be as knowledgeable as him at all. "Come and sit down. Take a breath first. Aunt Yun ordered someone to boil meat porridge and red date soup, and she could bring it over immediately! ”
"Thank you, Aunt Yun, thank you, second brother!" Yuwen Zhi wiped his face with a smile and walked to the table with a shuffler. "I'm starving to death, and inside, I eat chaff every day, and I don't care if I'm full. I've fed my dogs better than that! ”
He is much shorter than Wang Xun, and he lost his fat in prison, wearing the other party's clothes, just like the harlequin in the pear orchard who is specially dressed to make people laugh. Wang Xun straightened his collar for him, and said with a smile: "I don't have too small clothes at home, you can deal with these pieces first." I've already asked people to go out to Jinxiuxuan to buy you a new one, and I guess I'll be able to send it over later. ”
"Hehe, thank you, second brother!" Yu Wenzhi grinned. "Actually, this body is very good, Tianzhu cotton, it is very soft on the body. I'll take it back, find someone to change it, and I'll be able to wear it! ”
Wang Xun shook his head with a smile, looked at Yu Wenzhi's face, and asked in a low voice, "Have you been home?" Did your brother let you in? ”
"Don't mention that guy!" Yuwen Zhi flicked his sleeves in frustration, but he wasn't necessarily so annoyed, "His grandmother's, thinking that I went in, I would be bullied." The house and the land were all occupied. But he didn't expect that I would find a special one to hide the account book, the house deed, and the title deed. In the past few days, I will take a breath of relief, wait until I have the spirit, and then slowly settle the account with him! ”
"If you can gather and disperse, let's gather and disperse! After all, he's your own brother! Wang Xun sighed softly and persuaded in a low voice.
"The problem is, he never treated me as a brother!" A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Yuwen Zhi's eyes in an instant, and he gritted his teeth and said. "If it weren't for the second brother, you saved me, and I died in prison, he would be happy. Don't mention him, sooner or later I'll let him know what regret is! ”
Wang Xun himself has no brothers and sisters, so he can't understand the resentment when his biological brothers compete for family property. Seeing that Yuwen hated to be like this, it was not easy to persuade him again. smiled and said in a low voice: "Your two concubines were all hidden in Pingkang by Ma Fang." Blessed are you, boy. The two of them would rather live on the streets than betray you! ”
"Really?" Yuwen was overjoyed, "I didn't expect anyone to wait for me." I haven't had time to go to Pingkangli yet? Leave from the door of Yuwen's house, and immediately come to you! Ma Fang, this kid, he is really good at picking places! ”
"For your sake, he was almost broken by his father!" Wang Xun smiled and said in a low voice.
Yu Wenzhi's face changed again in an instant, with a little sadness and a little satisfaction. "Let him suffer. I will never forget him in my life. Second brother, I am in prison this time, and I have figured out a lot of things. At critical moments, in addition to being powerful, you also have to have a group of hardcore brothers. Otherwise......."
Wang Xun smiled again, too lazy to talk. Yu Wenzhi has just come out of prison, and he has experienced the betrayal of his brother, and with his current mentality, what he said must be irrational. It's better to let him go, and when he is done venting, he will forget about it.
The two brothers chatted casually, and the servant brought in the freshly cooked porridge. Yuwen Zhi smelled the smell of meat, his eyes immediately straightened, and he didn't use chopsticks and spoons, he directly picked up the bowl and drank it in one go. The servants couldn't hold back their laughter and added a bowl to him, and Yu Wenzhi took two big mouthfuls of "Gu Dong Gu Dong" and drank the whole bowl of porridge clean. Without waiting for the servant to serve, he reached out and grabbed the spoon. Seeing this, Wang Xun hurriedly grabbed him, "Your intestines are hungry, don't eat too quickly." You take it slowly, drink a bowl of red date soup, and then go to the bad luck! ”
"Oh!" Yuwen Zhi turned his head stupidly, clutching an empty bowl in his hand. After a while, I was convinced that the other party was not unwilling to give me food. He snorted and said in a hoarse voice, "Second brother, I listen to you." You won't hurt me! After that, he snatched the small bowl full of red date soup and drank it again.
"You're hungry!" Wang Xun smiled and sighed in a low voice. "Guoyong and Guozhen may come over in a while, I don't know if the Malaysian side can come. For your sake, Brother Lei was injured and is now lying in the post house, so Zhang Xun probably won't be able to come. I'll take you to the door later to thank them. You will stay at my house for the next few days, and I can order your two concubines to be brought to live with you. When the turmoil subsides, let's buy you a house again! ”
"No, no!" Yu Wenzhi put down the red date soup and waved his hand again and again. "I'll go to a brothel in Pingkangli, it's good."
"You ......." Wang Xun was frustrated again. In order to make money, Yuwenzhi opened a brothel. Now that they have to live in it in person and be seen by outsiders, where should the face of their Yuwen family ancestor go?
Without asking, Yu Wenzhi guessed what Wang Xun wanted to say. pursed his lips and said with a smile: "It's okay, second brother don't worry." To lose is to lose my own people. Yuwen family, do you still have anything to do with me now? ”
