Chapter 013 Thorn (1)

The principal of three or four hundred yuan of Steward Du is not his own, but he has just been ##下人的工钱 from the chief manager, and he has not yet sent it to his subordinates. If you lose a fine money here, you have to pay out of your own pocket to make up for it, thinking of the vicious gaze of the tigress at home, Steward Du couldn't help but shudder.

As soon as he gritted his teeth, he threw at least fifteen points, looked at the bright and flowing pearl on the table, and became even more eager, "Brother Mu, eldest lady, can you allow me for half an hour, I'll go back and get the money!" ”

The eldest lady stared at the beads left and right, ignoring him at all. Wu Zhixin said that you just mention a small outer courtyard steward of the prison family, where to find thousands of yuan, "Brother Du, you ...... Forgive my little brother for taking the liberty of ...... you took out thousands of yuan? ”

Steward Du's fat face turned red, and he said: "My brother really can't get the cash, but my brother has a few real estate fields, and he can use the deed to make it low!" Brother, do you think it is? The tone was already very different from Fang Cai, and he was slightly humble.

Wu Zhi said: "Even so, the eldest brother doesn't need to bother, the eldest brother can write an IOU as a low bet first, and then write five thousand yuan!" ”

Steward Du heard that the fat face blossomed: "It's still Brother Mu's righteousness, but I don't know ...... eldest lady" said and looked at the eldest lady.

Wu Zhi stretched out his finger and tapped on the table in front of the eldest lady, "Eldest miss! Brother Du used an IOU to make a low bet, can you agree? ”

The eldest lady seemed to be taken aback, "ah", raised her head and looked at the two of them: "This is also a method, but who is the creditor of the IOU to write?" ”

Wu Zhi said: "Just write the eldest lady!" If the younger brother is lucky enough to win this game, I believe that the eldest lady will not repay the debt, not to mention that there is still Zhao Zhongren here! ”

The eldest lady and Steward Du had no objections, and when the guy sent pen and ink, Steward Du wrote an IOU.

Seeing that Steward Du carefully put the IOU into the pile of Jiaozi on the table, Wu Zhi said: "Brother Du, let's still have the old rules, right?" Let's meet first? ”

Steward Du immediately became confident at this time. said: "Okay, please take a look at Zhao Zhongren!" "I was so proud. Looking at the old high Jiaozi piled up on the table, and then looking at the gorgeous pearls to the extreme, these will be their own in a while. Well, this bead can't be seen by the tigress at home. Find a way to hide it. As for the hairpin in the eldest lady's land, it's better not to accept it! While pondering, he waited for Zhao Zhongren to announce his victory.

Zhao Zhongren opened the black cloth, glanced at it, and said casually: "Steward Du......" Steward Du couldn't help laughing, stood up and pointed at Wu Zhi and said: "Mu Wu!" I begged you to open it, but you just didn't open it. Now it's all right! Let you compensate your wife and break your soldiers! ”

Wu Zhi was also surprised, did he really miss it? When you roll three dices, only two of the dice can be controlled to be six, and the other one is not sure. But just now I feel that how can I throw four or five points, could it be that Du is in charge of this shit luck, and this one rolled seventeen or eighteen points? In the blink of an eye, he saw Zhao Zhongren's face embarrassed, and he whispered in the wild laughter of Du Steward: "Small, Du Steward is small!" Zhao Zhongren is also used to chanting "Du is in charge" every time. I slipped out just now.

Steward Du was laughing wildly, but when he heard Zhao Zhongren's "Steward Du is small", he was immediately like a duck choked by someone's neck, and his wild laughter turned into a cough. Seeing this, the guy next to him hurriedly came over to help him beat his chest, and handed over tea, and after a long time, Steward Du gradually stopped coughing. He was stunned for a moment, and said loudly: "I don't believe it!" How could I lose to this reckless man! ”

Wu Zhi smiled slightly when he heard this, and took a sip of tea slowly, "Brother Du, it's better to go home quickly to raise money, and don't ask the younger brother to come back empty-handed when the younger brother goes to collect the accounts in a few days!" ”

Seeing that he treated himself so contemptuously, Steward Du screamed and wanted to pounce on him, but the man hurriedly grabbed him, and then several blue-shirted men came in from outside and pulled him out.

Waiting for the chaos to pass, the eldest lady blinked her eyes and said cautiously: "Mu Gongzi, it seems that the money and IOUs on this table are not yours yet, right?" ”

Wu Zhi was stunned, and Fang Cai got a little carried away.

The eldest lady looked at the beads again and sighed. Qi asked Zhao Zhongdao: "How many points did the two of them roll each?" ”

Zhao Zhongdao: "Mu Gongzi is seventeen o'clock, and Du is sixteen o'clock." ”

The eldest lady's face darkened when she heard this, and the highest way to roll three sixty-eight points was only, it seemed that she was doomed, but it was a pity that this bead was lost. couldn't help but glance at the bead again, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he turned to Wu Zhi and said, "Master Mu, can you sell this pearl to me?" ”

Wu Zhi shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, Miss, this bead can't be sold!" ”

The eldest lady nodded and smiled helplessly: "Then I'll leave!" ”

Wu Zhi said: "The eldest lady didn't look at your location?" As soon as the words fell, Zhao Zhongren over there suddenly screamed, and everyone looked over, but saw him holding a black cloth in one hand, and pointing to the eldest lady's color bowl with the other hand, trembling, and unable to speak with "hoho" in his mouth.

In the eldest lady's color bowl, the three dice grains are neatly arranged, and the upward side is actually full of six red dots. The eldest lady actually threw a leopard! Eighteen o'clock!

Not only Zhao Zhongren was speechless, but the few people present were all stunned. Half a day later, the eldest lady suddenly cheered, "I won!" I rolled eighteen points! Ha ha! …… My little beads! While laughing wildly, he ran over and picked up Wu Zhi's baby pearl, put it on his face for a while, and held it in the palm of his hand for a while, and he was going crazy with joy.

Wu Zhi sighed, people are not as good as heaven! Maybe there is a certain number in the dark! glanced at the crazy eldest lady over there and Zhao Zhongren who was still sluggish, man. Turned around and walked out.

When Wu Zhi came to the bow of the gambling boat, he found that he had no money, and if he got to the shore, he could wait until the observation department to pay the bill, but now he couldn't find the few pennies he wanted to hire a boat to return to the shore.

"What? Don't have a penny lost yet? ”

Wu Zhi was embarrassed, and the eldest lady came over lazily, holding on to the railing and standing side by side with Wu Zhi.

Wu Zhi said with a smile: "It's true that there is nothing left, if the eldest lady can borrow some of Mu's carriage and horse expenses, Mu will be grateful." ”

The autumn wind blew from the bow of the boat, and the eldest lady's hair was blown in the wind, and she reached out to pull her hair. Looking at the lake in the distance, "I have rarely seen such a free and easy character as you." Losing nearly 10,000 yuan of money can still be so indifferent. ”

Wu Zhi said: "What can you do if you don't get free? Is it a sloppy trick? And then he was taken out for an old fist like Steward Du? ”

The eldest lady was amused by his words, and turned her head to look at Wu Zhi, "I heard that you are the third lady of the Ye family?" ”

Wu Zhi scolded in his heart, it must have been that guy who heard the conversation between himself and Steward Du and chewed on the root of his tongue. "Sort of."

"Sort of?" The eldest lady was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly she was stunned. "It seems that the rumors are true......

Wu Zhi said: "What rumors? ”

The eldest lady smiled: "I heard that Ye Yuan sent the third lady's sweetheart ten thousand dollars and rushed out. As he spoke, he played with the pearl in his hand and said, "This bead is more than ten thousand." ”

Wu Zhi suddenly realized, no wonder the guy in charge of Du regarded himself as a sheep, it turned out that there were such rumors outside, so didn't he become a soft rice eater?

"But looking at the son's actions today, it seems that he is not a greedy person for money. Why do you forsake your lover for money? The eldest lady looked at Wu Zhi with interest.

Wu Zhi can't explain it, and this eldest lady is too bad. Sha Sha Xing said: "It's time to say goodbye, and ask the eldest lady to borrow a few pennies from Mu." ”

The eldest lady didn't ask either. sighed and said: "Today is the most memorable day for me, the first time I rolled eighteen points, the first time I won tens of thousands of dollars, the first time I was curious...... Too many firsts......"

Wu Zhixin said, I have too many firsts today, and it is the first time I have been treated as a little white face. The first time I suffered a loss, and for the first time I realized that a penny was suffocating your prince...... It seems that today is also a day to remember.

"Speaking of which, I really want to thank Mu Gongzi today, I will send someone to arrange to send Mu Gongzi home." The eldest lady saw that Wu Zhi didn't mean to talk to herself, so she didn't say anything more.

Wu Zhi said: "Don't bother the eldest lady, Mu has no fixed residence, and he will return to Shandong in a few days." ”

The eldest lady let out an "oh" and said, "Does Mu Gongzi have a coil back to Shandong?" Today, he won a sum of money against the boss of the son, but Jin Zhi was unhappy. It depends on the situation, if you send the son to entangle, you will not accept it, if the son is in trouble, you can come to the gambling house to find me. I lack a steward under my command, and if the son is willing to give in, Jin Zhi can't ask for it. ”

When Wu Zhi heard the eldest lady call herself "Jin Zhi", he immediately remembered Princess Jin Zhi, the daughter of Fang La in the Water Margin. looked at her in surprise, Fang La's daughter? Not like.

"Mu is still entangled, Miss Xie is very loving." Of course Wu Zhi refused, he also knew why Jin Zhi wanted to hire him as a steward, saying that he was in charge, it must be her little servant. Gamblers all believe in luck, thinking that Jin Zhi thinks that he has brought her good luck, and wants to ask himself to accompany her to gamble every day.

Jin Zhi didn't say more, stretched out his hand and handed Wu Zhi a Jiaozi, and said, "Since this is the case, I won't delay Gongzi, but the vacancy of Jin Zhi's steward will be left to Gongzi." ”

Wu Zhi nodded, thanked him, and beckoned the captain to return by boat.

Observation in the backyard of the Division

Wu Zhi was stunned and speechless for a long time.

"Lord Wang! It's the incompetence of subordinates! Subordinates damn it! Wang Jin's face was full of guilt, he knelt on one knee, and there were even a little tears in his eyes.

Wu Zhi shook his head: "How can I blame you!" It's me who underestimated Yuexizhuang too much! I underestimated Fang La! You tell me more about it! ”

"Yes! Last night, the subordinates led the brothers to rob and kill a team of salt according to the news from the inner line of Yuexizhuang, who knew that the ambush of Yuexizhuang, the masters of Yuexizhuang all arrived, the four King Kongs were really good, and Master Zhishen and I could only block two of them, plus the Eight Tigers of Jiangnan, the Eleven Gods and more than 1,000 elites of Yuexizhuang, the brothers couldn't resist at all, a bloody battle, hundreds of brothers only killed more than 100 people, Master Zhishen was hit by several arrows, and he was still in a coma...... "Speaking of which, The tears in Wang Jin's eyes couldn't help but flow.

Wu Zhi felt a pinprick in his heart, he had been going smoothly these days, and he was really careless. Presumably, the carefully bought Yuexi Zhuang was found out by Fang La, and a trap was laid. Most of the one hundred and eight generals on the Water Margin were folded in Fang La's hands, not to mention that there were only a few masters under him, and it was already a fluke that they could escape.

Both fell silent, and they don't know how long it took. Wu Zhi walked over and gently helped Wang Jin up, "Take me to see Master Zhishen......"

When all the officials of the two Zhejiang roads arrived in Hangzhou. Only then did I get the news that your king Chitose was seriously ill. Closed the door to thank the guests, and then feasted everyone to make amends when the condition improved. All the officials were disappointed, but they were helpless. Even if there is dissatisfaction, who dares to express it? If you complain, you may be spread by others, and that is really a curse. So these officials were in Hangzhou for a few days and then dispersed.

Turn left at the end of the very secluded "Walking Street" in the west of Quanzhou. There is a long alley, there is only one family in the whole alley, the towering and majestic big Qing brick wall stretches straight to the bottom of the alley from the winding alley of the street, the middle is the gate, and there is a pair of huge and fierce bronze lions squatting on both sides of the white granite nine-step staircase, with a lotus petal base; The door is two feet high. Half a foot wide, black lacquer, white steel animal ring. Polished as bright as silver, it looks very magnificent.

Downstairs at the gate, two golden six-bucket characters are embedded - "Fang Mansion". This is the famous Yuexizhuang camp in Jiangnan.

In the backyard of Fangfu, in the octagonal pavilion on the small artificial lake.

Jin Zhi still looked lazy, sitting on the stone bench and yawning vigorously, "Mu Wu." How many runs did I win today? ”

Wu Zhi was dressed in a green coat and stood beside her, "Thirty consistent." ”

Jin Zhi nodded, sighed, and said, "Since you came, you've been winning every day, but why do you think it's boring to gamble?" ”

Wu Zhi said: "The fun of gambling is to experience those who suffer from gains and losses before betting, blood boiling when betting, or ecstatic or heartbroken after betting. The eldest lady can't understand it now. ”

Jin Zhi nodded again and again after hearing this, and said: "Mu Wu, I find that what you say is always so reasonable, there are some things, I vaguely understand, but I can't say it, what you say is really thorough." As he spoke, he looked at Wu Zhi a few more times, and said with a smile: "No wonder the third lady of the Ye family will take a fancy to you, but she also has some ability!" ”

Wu Zhi said: "If the eldest lady still wants to get back to the feeling she had before, give Mu Wu a few days off, Mu Wu has been here for a few days, and he has not had time to visit the mansion." ”

Jin Zhi said: "Want to be lazy? It's okay to have a vacation, but it's not a random place to play in this house, but there are a lot of forbidden places, if you go the wrong way and go to a place you shouldn't enter, I can't protect you. He yawned a lot, patted his face, and said, "I'm tired after only playing for a day and a night." I'm back in my room, you can go back and rest, and I'm not going to the gambling house tonight. After speaking, she stood up and walked towards her embroidery building, and the little maid Cui'er, who had been silent behind her, hurriedly followed.

The courtyard where Wu Zhi lived was all servants of the relatively high status of the Fang family, and each servant lived in a separate room, and the environment of the house was not bad, with tables and chairs, and the bed was soft.

Wu Zhi sat on the edge of the bed, thinking silently, it had been seven or eight days since he came to Fang's house, and he wanted to scare them half to death when he told Wang Jin that they had planned their own land, and he said that he would not agree to enter the tiger's den by himself. But how did he reluctantly beat himself, he forced them to agree with a word, "If you don't act according to the king's plan, this king will also hide from you to enter Yuexizhuang, but the danger is much greater without your cooperation!" ”

This time, he didn't dare to tell Jin Lian and Zhu'er, only saying that he had something to do and needed to be investigated in disguise. As for Qiqiao and Xuan Jing, of course, they have to be notified, and the roles of the two of them are indispensable in the plan. What's more, the identity of Mu Wu that he is using now, if he doesn't tell Qiqiao, he will get a goof.

Jin Dajian's case can only be slowed down first, first, Shi Qian has not yet heard the place where Sister Jin's body is hidden, and then he inadvertently got the news, it seems that the big backer of the Jiangnan officialdom in Yuexizhuang is to mention the Criminal Prison Division, if the case is overturned for Sister Jin, it will inevitably alarm the Criminal Prison Division, but this is not the best time. Only by dealing with Yuexizhuang and finding evidence of the collusion between Yuexizhuang and mentioning official affairs can we be strong enough to take down the black yarn of mentioning official business.

Walking to the window, looking at the courtyard with mountains and backs in the middle of the house, and reaching out to touch the goldless sword hidden behind him, Wu Zhi smiled......
