Chapter 334: Portrait of a Pig's Head! (4309 words, 2nd update)
In Chang'an City, the Wang family.
Just waiting for the king's shopkeeper, he was arrested by the people of Yongzhou Mansion, and soon after the news came back.
At this time, Wang Lao, who was sitting and drinking tea in the hall of the Wang family, heard the news, and suddenly he couldn't hold back, and the tea "poofed" and sprayed all over the ground in an instant.
"What did you say?" Wang Lao quickly put down the teacup in his hand.
At this moment, he didn't care whether the tea in the cup had been splashed all over the table, his eyes stared at the servant in disbelief, and asked in surprise: "The shopkeeper Wang was arrested by the people of Yongzhou Mansion?" ”
The shopkeeper of the king can be said to be a relatively big henchman of their Wang family.
In Chang'an City, there are several large Wang family shops, all of which are run by him, and under his command, there are more than a dozen small shops.
Even in the eyes of the Wang family, those shops are just small shops, they are much larger than other people's shops, and their ability to collect money is also very strong!
It is no exaggeration to say that one of the sources of their Wang family's wealth is based on the operation of the Wang shopkeeper.
It can be seen that the shopkeeper Wang has a great role and influence on their Wang family.
Therefore, Wang Lao will remember the name of "Wang Shopkeeper" very deeply.
Therefore, when he heard the news from the servant, Wang Lao's expression was abnormal, and his heart was suddenly shocked.
"Yes, Elder Wang." Seeing that Wang Lao was so abnormal, the servant didn't dare to hesitate, and hurriedly said, "Just now, the shopkeeper Wang was personally taken away by Yang Gongren of Yongzhou Mansion, and the little one also heard about ......it."
Halfway through the conversation, the servant didn't dare to continue, he was afraid that Wang Lao's heart would not be able to bear it, and he would be angry on the spot.
After all, Wang Lao is not only old now, but also has a rather strange temper.
When he's good to you, it's excellent, too good to say at all, but once he gets angry, he strikes sharper and more vicious than anyone else.
There were many domestic servants before, because they told the bad news at an inopportune time, they were directly dragged down and beaten by Wang Lao's order.
In recent days, too many things have made Wang Lao worried, and the servants dare not violate this brow.
But if he doesn't tell the news, once Wang Lao learns about it afterwards, then his fate will definitely be worse than being beaten violently.
The domestic servant also struggled for a long time before he came to tell Wang Lao about it.
"What have you heard?" Wang Lao asked with a heavy brow, his eyes shrinking into a fishing line.
But seeing that the servants were spitting and spitting, he didn't dare to say the words easily, presumably it was precisely because of this time that he disposed of a lot of domestic servants, so that everyone had a sense of fear in their hearts.
So, Elder Wang breathed a sigh of relief, eased the atmosphere a little, and did not let the servants have the illusion of suffocation, before waving his hand: "Say it, the old man doesn't blame you." ”
“…… Yes, Elder Wang. When the servant saw this, he was relieved, and then said carefully:
"I heard that Shopkeeper Wang was about to close those shops, and he happened to meet Shopkeeper Xu from Drunken Immortal Building and came to buy it, but Shopkeeper Wang sent seven or eight warlocks to beat Shopkeeper Xu."
"Because this matter made too much noise, it directly alarmed Yongzhou Mansion, and Yang Beijia of Yongzhou Mansion personally took a group of officials to a trip."
Later, the officials of Yongzhou Mansion searched the Wang family's ...... in Chang'an City in the shop managed by the Wang shopkeeper Title deeds of all shops. ”
"Yang Beijia has already awarded these land deeds to the shopkeeper Xu of Zuixian Building as compensation for beating the shopkeeper Xu and others."
While saying these words, the servant had been carefully observing Wang Lao's expression, for fear that Wang Lao would be angry in an instant and send someone to beat him.
But obviously, Wang Lao's face today was extremely normal, he didn't have any anger, he just glanced at him lightly, and asked again, "What else?" ”
"And?" The servant was stunned, his eyes rolled a little halfway, as if he suddenly thought of something, and suddenly said, "By the way, Elder Wang, it is said that ...... It is said that at that time, Li Boan was also present! ”
"Huh? Li Boan was also present at the time? Elder Wang's eyes narrowed suddenly, and the essence of light in his eyes was as cold as iron, staring at the servant.
The servant was so frightened that his neck shrank, and he quickly nodded honestly: "That's right." ”
"Li Bo'an appeared?" Elder Wang sighed, and did not take the servant's previous words to heart, but for the three words "Li Bo'an", Elder Wang was extremely dignified.
Because before, his housekeeper Ah Fu disappeared along with Li Yi.
But now, Li Yi has appeared, but his housekeeper Ah Fu has not yet appeared, which has to make Wang Lao vigilant.
He guessed in his heart that maybe Ah Fu was dead now, after all, Li Yi was also a ruthless person and would never take revenge overnight.
"Okay, the old man knows." Elder Wang waved his hand, looked at the servant, and solemnly ordered, "Send a few reliable people to secretly observe Li Bo'an's whereabouts, and once there is any news, immediately notify the old man." ”
"Yes, Elder Wang!" The servant was relieved and hurriedly left with his fists clenched.
At this time, Wang Lao commanded behind him again: "Ye Yu, you go and be responsible for secretly tracking Li Bo'an, those people are not at ease, once you find Afu's traces, you can deal with the situation yourself." ”
"Yes, sir." When the voice behind him sounded, the wind flickered slightly, and there was no one.
At this time, Wang Laocai took a sip of tea lightly and sneered, "Li Bo'an? You kid still want to take advantage of the fisherman, and want to take the opportunity to take away the old man's Wang family and the shops in Chang'an City? It's so beautiful to think about! ”
Those title deeds, Wang Lao has always kept in his room.
On weekdays, no one is allowed to enter his room for a single step, and Wang Lao will not believe that in those shops, the real Wang family's shop title deed can be found.
Therefore, for this matter, Wang Lao behaved a little carelessly and did not take it seriously.
As for the "shopkeeper Wang", the fact that he sent some Jianghu warlocks to beat up Shopkeeper Xu and others made Wang Lao feel very strange.
"I didn't expect that Xiao Wang, this kid, still has such courage, but it is worthy of cultivation by the old man!"
In the secret of his heart, Wang Lao called Ah Qiang, stood up from his seat, patted his shirt, and said happily, "Ah Qiang, go, go with the old man to the Yongzhou Mansion!" ”
"Yes, Elder Wang." Ah Qiang nodded in response, and followed Wang Lao to Yongzhou Mansion.
……
Yongzhou Mansion, prison.
After some checking, Wang Lao took Ah Qiang to the outside of the cell where Wang's shopkeeper was held.
"Hey, someone came to see you!" The official suddenly shouted at the shopkeeper Wang in the prison, and the shopkeeper came back to his senses and looked at the officer's side.
At the same time, the official took the ingots handed over by Ah Qiang, weighed them in his hand a few times, and then left satisfied, and at the same time proposed, "You'd better hurry up, don't let the above know, it's not easy to deal with a certain person when he falls." ”
"Don't worry, sir, we naturally know the rules." Cuong replied with a smile.
"Well, that's good, after half a cup of tea, so-and-so will come back." The servant nodded, and turned to leave.
But in the next second, the official went directly to the palace to find Yang Gongren, and at the same time, told him the news that Wang Lao had come in person.
And at this moment, the shopkeeper Wang in the cell, as soon as he saw that Wang Lao had come in person, his face was a little embarrassed, and with a hint of surprise, he hurriedly bowed in a trembling voice: "The villain greets Wang Lao." ”
"Hehe, you don't have to be so polite." Wang Lao smiled and waved his hand, glanced at Ah Qiang, and Ah Qiang handed the food and wine he brought to the shopkeeper Wang.
“…… Thank you, little man! Looking at these things brought by Wang Lao, the shopkeeper Wang was stunned, and hurriedly hugged his fists to thank him.
"Okay, Xiao Wang, there's no need to be so polite." Wang Lao smiled and waved his hand, and then he chose a place to sit aside.
looked around the cell, but saw that there was no figure, Wang Lao said this time: "Xiao Wang, you are quite impressed by the old man, in the face of Li Bo'an's people, you actually dare to go to the Jianghu Warlock and beat up the shopkeeper Xu of the Drunken Immortal Building." ”
For Wang Lao, seeing Li Yi or someone make a fool of himself is very happy in his heart.
But when the shopkeeper heard this, he was immediately shocked, and said secretly in his heart, "Could it be ...... Did Mr. Wang also know about the betrayal of the Wang family? This ......"
Thinking of this, the shopkeeper Wang was afraid for a while, looked at the food brought by Wang Lao, and didn't dare to move the chopsticks at all.
He was afraid that he would hang up if he was not careful.
The shopkeeper couldn't guess what Elder Wang said, but he still shook his head honestly and said bitterly: "Elder Wang, those Jianghu warlocks are not small ones at all. ”
"Huh?" Wang Lao was stunned for a moment, looked at the shopkeeper Wang, and said loudly, "Didn't you find it?" ”
Shopkeeper Wang nodded, and hurriedly told Elder Wang what had happened one by one.
Almost instantly, after hearing the explanation of the shopkeeper Wang, Wang Lao suddenly thought in his heart, those Jianghu warlocks ...... I'm afraid it's the manpower arranged by Li Yi!
As for those title deeds, they must have been forged by Li Yi privately!
But at this moment, the shopkeeper Wang suddenly emphasized and said, "Elder Wang, those land deeds...... It doesn't look like a forgery, it not only has the seal of the tooth line on it, but also ...... And, there's your old handwriting. ”
"Impossible." Wang Lao shook his head, patted the shopkeeper Wang's shoulder, nodded and said, "Don't worry, Xiao Wang, the old man will send someone to rescue you, you do things, the old man is still very relieved!" ”
“?” Shopkeeper Wang was stunned, nodded and hugged his fists, "Thank you for your love." ”
"Well, when you come out, keep working." Throwing down these words, Wang Lao turned around and left.
It's just that at this moment, his walking steps can't help but speed up a lot, and there is a bad feeling in his heart, which rises in vain.
"Sir?" Ah Qiang, who was following behind Wang Lao, was very hesitant in his heart.
But before he had time to ask clearly, Wang Lao solemnly ordered: "Ah Qiang, you hurry up and go to Yaxing to see, those land deeds forged by Li Bo'an, have they been traded by the buyer!" ”
"Yes, sir!" Cuong didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately turned around and left.
At the same time, Wang Lao had already returned to the mansion, ignoring the greetings of the people in the mansion, and hurriedly ran towards his room.
Hulala...... A burst of operation is as fierce as a tiger.
But in an instant, Wang Lao found the safe where he stored his things, and seeing that the key to the safe was safe, Wang Lao breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's okay, it's still there!"
After whispering twice in his heart, Wang Lao took out the key he carried with him and gently opened the safe.
Above, there is a stack of title deed paper.
Seeing all this, Wang Lao's heart became a lot more comfortable, and his worried heart completely fell again.
Then, he took out the title deed paper and began to read it.
But in the next second, Wang Lao was instantly dumbfounded, his eyes were about to kill someone, his eyes were as big as copper bells, and he scolded: "Li Bo'an, you are a special mother, the old man is going to kill you a dog!" ”
At this time, Wang Baoquan, who happened to be returning home, heard a loud scolding sound from Wang Lao's house, and he was scolding Li Yi, so he quickly came to the door of Wang Lao's house.
"Grandpa, what's wrong with you?" Wang Baoquan asked curiously.
Wang Lao did not answer Wang Baoquan, but with a "bang", he directly smashed the safe on the ground, and the paper in his hand was even more crumpled into a mess, and he angrily threw it out on the spot.
Seeing this, Wang Baoquan couldn't care about Wang Lao's advice, so he hurriedly stepped forward and looked at the safe, and his whole face was not good, and he turned into a black pot.
Then, tremblingly, he picked up the paper ball on the ground, opened it, and saw that the contents on it were exactly the same as the contents of the paper in the safe.
The entire inside the safe has a mocking pig's head painted on it!
"This ...... This...... How so?! Wang Baoquan clenched his fists in anger, trembling like a sieve, looked at Wang Lao in confusion, and said loudly, "Grandpa, this is ...... Why are all of them pig's heads? ”
"It was Li Bo'an who did it! It must have been Li Boan's slut who did it! Wang Lao was so angry that his face was bloodshot, and he said in a weak voice.
Then, with a "bang knock ......", Wang Lao's whole person fell down directly with his head up, and Wang Baoquan was frightened on the spot, and he hurriedly rushed up to help Wang Lao.
At the same time, Wang Baoquan shouted urgently outside the door: "Come on, come on, hurry up and call Lang Zhong......"
The entire Wang family was shocked in an instant.
At this moment, Ah Qiang, who had just returned from outside the house, heard the news that the title deed of the Wang family's shop had indeed changed its name, so he ran back in a panic, ready to tell Wang Lao.
But when he entered the mansion, he saw that Wang Lao was so angry that he fainted, and then, Wang Lao's house was full of pig-headed portraits, and the whole person couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth in an instant.
"Damn, who is so lacking in morality! Not to mention the stolen things, he actually left a portrait of a pig's head! Is it to deliberately humiliate the master? ”
For this situation, it was the first time Ah Qiang had seen it, and he was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
……
And at this moment, he was in the drunken immortal building and Tianzi No. 1 room, while drinking, while listening to Yue'er's story of 'stealing beams and changing pillars', when he heard Yue'er leave a 'pig's head portrait', Li Yi suddenly leaned forward and leaned back with laughter.
"Ahem, Yue'er, who are you looking for to learn from?" Li Yi couldn't help but ask.
"Childe, didn't you draw a pig's head portrait a few days ago?" Yue'er said a little embarrassed, "Yue'er thought, 'pig's head' must be a bad meaning, so Yue'er made her own decisions, took it to someone and painted a lot, and left it for the old guy." ”
"Haha!" Li Yi smiled a little speechless, rubbed Yue'er's little head, and said, "My Yue'er, awesome, come here, let the son kiss one." ”
"Hee-hee, really? Son? Yue'er's eyes blinked expectantly.
"Come here." Li Yi said with a smile.
Yue'er immediately came to Li Yi's side, bowed slightly, and stood beside Li Yi with her butt cocked.
"Poof!" Li Yi kissed it in one bite, but the moment he looked back, he couldn't help but sneeze: "Ahh ”
"Scold, scold, you turtle grandsons, scold as much as you want, haha......" Li Yi couldn't stop laughing, and drank in the wine cup.
