Chapter 379: You're Unlucky
"Big bragging!"
The little maid Peony stood behind Xia Qiyue, secretly feeling sorry in her heart!
This brother-in-law who came to the door today doesn't look very old, but his tone is really not small, listening to the meaning of his words, it seems that his uncle's official position is arranged by him, and he is not afraid to flash his tongue when he says big things, his aunt was originally a seven-grade official, and the county lord is only seven-grade!
How could such a big official be arranged if he wanted to?
He thought he was a big official in the capital or a celebrity in front of the emperor? He also calls himself Ben Hou, how can there be such a young Hou Ye, when he hears it, he is nonsense to strengthen his face.
Look at this brother-in-law's dress is ordinary, without the nobility of an official master, and his face is a little dark, most of them are businessmen who have been running around all year round.
The appearance is also a little delicate, the eyes are black and bright, the nose is high, and the whole person does not look thin, much stronger than those fan-headed boys, and I don't know if I am married, I heard that men like the big, the old, and the big ones are there......
Peony lowered her head, passed through a plain, and then saw her little feet clearly without any obstacles, and couldn't help but stomp her feet in annoyance!
She hurriedly raised her head, and saw that no one was paying attention, and she breathed a sigh of relief, she was the big maid in charge, and she would have to manage many maids and subordinates in the house in the future.
It's just that I don't know when there will be other people in the family, my aunt's Yulu can't afford to support so many people, and now the house is just myself and an old porter, which sounds shabby.
Speaking of his uncle from the family, he was not less angry with other big officials and masters when he was an official in Nantong, and his official position became smaller and smaller, and he often drank alcohol in the house in the first few days.
Fortunately, the young lady was virtuous and earnestly dissuaded, and my uncle finally stopped drinking, thinking that a good day was coming, but who knew that my uncle had a different hobby - growing vegetables! And one is a yard, like a farmer is better than like an official master, there is no ambition before coming to Nantong, as if he has accepted his fate.
The old man is not motivated, and he has no good life as a subordinate, he not only has to carry water every day, but also catch insects, how can he have the slightest bit of the style of the official head of the house!
Miss not only did not dissuade this time, but followed her uncle to grow vegetables together, the original white and delicate hands have given birth to a thin layer of calluses, and I don't know how the young lady who has always been pampered can stand it?
Pity yourself for this little girl, she is young, her body is delicate, and the blisters on her hands have just grown and are worn out, and it hurts at the tip of her heart......
Cao Wei didn't pay attention to the little maid who was thinking crankily on the side, he patted Xie Yufei's shoulder and smiled: "Got a lot of anger? β
Xie Yufei was silent for a moment and nodded!
"Want to fight?"
"Fight?" Xie Yufei paused, when he was in Fuping County, he was a yaman who had nothing to do all day, walking on the street with a few family members, almost everyone ate the bear's heart, and the leopard dared to step forward to provoke.
If there are businessmen from other places who can't open their eyes, he doesn't mind disciplining them. So he can't fight, but he's very familiar with beating people.
After coming to Nantong to be an official, because the official position was not high, I was afraid of offending someone who should not be offended, so I restrained my temperament and became much more stable. Now Cao Wei asked him if he would fight, which reminded him of the days when he was rampant in Fuping County.
Seeing that Xie Yufei didn't answer, Cao Wei continued to ask, "Is there anyone you want to fight?" β
Xie Yufei couldn't help but feel refreshed when he saw that Cao Wei was asking seriously, not like a joke.
After he came to Nantong, he kept a low profile, and he didn't dare to use his brother-in-law's name as a faΓ§ade, for fear of losing Cao Wei's face. Therefore, in a foreign country, an outsider who has no backing will naturally suffer a lot of difficulties.
Xie Yufei has accumulated a lot of grievances, although he grows vegetables and reads on weekdays, it seems that he is self-cultivation and calm, but in fact, he has long been holding his stomach.
"Yes, yes! Zhang He, the magistrate, repeatedly made things difficult for me in the papers, promoted Liu Sheng's withheld accounts, and Guo Wei, the supervisor of Caoyun, invited me to eat a few times in private, thinking that he wanted to make friends with me, but these days before and after being respectful, I saw the shameless true face of this person......"
Cao Wei raised his hand and said lightly: "Yufei, you can do what you want today, take revenge if you have revenge, collect debts if you have debts, raise your fists if you don't like it, be arrogant, be domineering, even if you beat the prefect, my brother-in-law will help you resist today."
When I went to Fuping County for the first time, I didn't know if the domineering Xie Yanei I saw was still there? β
After Cao Wei finished speaking, he turned around and left, Xie Yufei looked at Cao Wei's back, his eyes were slightly red, and he found that his brother-in-law's back was as calm as a mountain like his father Xie Ping's back, and he could rely on it.
He glanced at Xia Qiyue, laughed and stood up to catch up.
Peony hurriedly said: "Miss, stop them quickly, how can my brother-in-law teach my uncle to beat people!" Something is going to happen! β
The corners of Xia Qiyue's mouth hooked, staring at Xie Yufei's back, and said softly: "I haven't seen Xianggong so happy for a long time, if he hadn't been for me and for this family, I'm afraid he would have resigned and returned to his hometown a long time ago......"
β¦β¦β¦
β¦β¦β¦
The courtyard of the Xie family is not far from Xie Yufei's official office, only a few streets away.
After Cao Wei left Xie's mansion, he galloped all the way, and the left and right guards also followed him, and soon dozens of figures gathered behind him, and Xie Yufei was also among them.
When he arrived at the door of the mansion, Cao Wei turned around and said, "Go ahead, let's go drink after the fight!" β
Xie Yufei nodded, and then entered the yamen. The official guarding the door wanted to greet him, but when he saw that he was in a hurry and his face was not good, he swallowed the words that had just come to his lips.
When I first entered the palace, it was a courtyard, and the left and right houses were the places where there were three classes and six rooms, and the three classes were soap, strong, and fast classes, all of which were errand servants; The six rooms refer to the officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, and workshops, all of which are secretaries, and Xie Yufei is the secretary's office, the main officer's room, and is the ninth grade, barely out of the category of officials, and is squeezed at the very edge of the official.
Further inside is the Erdao Courtyard, the office of the second official of the government, where the Caoyun, the judge, the pusher, and the promotion are all here.
Further inside is the office of the chief officials everywhere, and the Tongzhi Tong judge lives on the left and right, and the prefect sits in the center and manages the land of a government.
Xie Yufei quickly passed through the first courtyard, and when he was about to enter the second courtyard, a white-faced young man with a short beard was about to walk out, he was stunned for a moment after seeing Xie Yufei, and then frowned slightly, and said, "Stop!" Xie Yufei, you didn't come to order today, it's really a late and dereliction of duty, this is the third case this month, if you let the prefect know, you will definitely be rated as inferior......"
"It's your business!"
"Knowing it's wrong...... You, what do you say? Guo Wei felt that he had heard something wrong.
Xie Yufei said in disgust: "Guo Caoyun, it's your!" β
Guo Wei showed anger on his face, after the original Caoyun supervisor was transferred, he thought that the errand of the Caoyun supervisor could fall on him, but he didn't know that Xie Yufei fell from the sky. I thought that this newly transferred Caoyun supervisor had some background, and invited him to eat a few meals and then found out his origins, his father was just a county governor in a remote place, and a mountain turtle Ya Nei, most of them spent a lot of silver taels to sit in this position.
After having no scruples, he let his family use some small means, and easily pinched the position of Cao Yun in his hand.
If you don't know whether you are dead or alive, if you fall in the deep pool of Nantong, even if you are unlucky!
This little official still hasn't recognized the situation, a small character, who can pinch him to death casually, dares to be so rude to himself, if he doesn't have something to explore, who will take care of his muddy character.
"Brother Xie Xian, how can I say that we have all drunk a few times, and we are commensurate with brothers, and we can be regarded as having some friendship, seeing that you don't know how to make progress now, the foolish brother is heartbroken......
Guo Wei's face was grim, and he didn't look distressed at all: "You may not know that Judge Liu is about to be transferred out of office, if someone can operate for the virtuous brother, maybe the position of the judge will fall into the hands of the virtuous brother, and it just so happens that the foolish brother has some ways to ......."
Xie Yufei sneered in his heart, and said calmly: "Then thank you Brother Guo!" β
"Our own brothers, say a word of thanks, you can be born, today after the day is free, the foolish brother set up a banquet in the guest house, and invite the virtuous brother to drink two cups...... Oh, by the way, you might as well bring your lady with you......"
Guo Wei suddenly lowered his voice, approached Xie Yufei, and said: "Don't hide it from Brother Xian, after Brother Yu saw Mrs. Ling in your mansion last time, he has been thinking about it, if Brother Xian is interested, Brother Yu also has a beautiful concubine to give him...... Ah......h
Guo Wei covered his nose, blood dripped through his fingers on his clothes and the ground, his face showed pain and disbelief, he looked at Xie Yufei in a daze, and then his face was irrepressible anger, just as he was about to scold, another heavy punch hit him in the stomach, making his whole body involuntarily curl up, squatting on the ground, and letting out a painful groan.
Xie Yufei's face was pale, and he said strangely: "Lao Tzu is a rough man, a turtle in a remote mountainous area, he has been pretending to be Sven for a long time, and today is considered your bad luck, and he bumped into him, if he didn't beat you half to death, I'm really sorry for you......"
