"Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow! ”

For no reason, I don't know if a few crows flew there, and they kept screaming on the beams of the yamen of Jianghaiguan as if they had taken the wrong medicine, and they couldn't be driven away, and they flew into the sky and turned around and then fell down and continued to shout, which made the old comprador Wu Lao, who was working in the yamen, very unhappy, and it was difficult to make a mistake in calculating the tariff income. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Phew! Depressed Star! ”

Spit heavily in the direction of the crow's cry, and the rather superstitious Wu Lao comprador made up his mind that he must take a bath with the grapefruit leaves transferred from the south tonight, and completely go to the bad luck!

Bad luck is entangled in Wu Lao comprador, Wu Lao comprador is not afraid, if it involves the only proud grandson of Wu Lao comprador, Wu Lao comprador will regret it too late.

It was indeed very evil, and suddenly a few crows flew in, hovering endlessly over the customs yamen, and then one of the crows actually landed on the courtyard wall directly opposite the door of Wu Lao comprador signing room, yelling at Wu Lao comprador constantly, as if he was saying something to Wu Lao comprador. However, it is a pity that the old comprador Wu not only did not receive this feeling, but also ordered the soldiers in a very angry rage: "Go, shoot, kill that dejected star!" ”

"Shoot?" The soldiers were a little dumbfounded, and hurriedly said, "Master, do you really want to shoot?" This is the customs yamen. ”

The old comprador Wu who was angry had to be reminded by his own soldiers, and then he remembered that shooting birds at the yamen of the Tangtang Jiang Customs was indeed quite a big impact, and the slightest carelessness might cause misunderstanding among all parties. After suppressing his anger a little, the old comprador Wu was about to change his tune and use other methods to clean up the unlucky unlucky crow, but he didn't expect that someone outside the door suddenly came to report, "Master, two men came from outside the yamen of Jianghaiguan, claiming to be from the small eight parties in the concession, asking to see you." ”

"Little Eight Strands?"

Old comprador Wu recalled for a long time before he remembered this small gang, and vaguely remembered that the leader of this small gang was surnamed Ye, as if he was still the twentieth generation disciple of the Qing Gang, and his status in the Tao was far from his own, so Old Comprador Wu was inevitably a little puzzled, and said casually: "What is Ye Danshan doing when he comes to find the old man?" How many gifts did you bring? ”

"Master Hui, it's not Ye Danshan who came in person, it's his two subordinates." The servant replied truthfully, "I didn't bring any gifts, I came empty-handed." ”

"Hah!" Old comprador Wu laughed directly and said: "The two little deflated three dare to come to see the old man empty-handed, and when the old man withdraws from the rivers and lakes, he can be cheap casually?" Go tell the two little deflated three, tell them to go back to Ye Danshan to lead the family law, and then ask Ye Danshan to give the old man an explanation within three days, otherwise the old man will destroy the little eight shares of the party. ”

When the subordinates took the order and left, the crows hovering over the customs yamen were screaming more poignantly and intensively, and the old comprador Wu was furious in his heart, and immediately ordered someone to take bows, arrows, slingshots and other objects to shoot birds, and he also personally grabbed a slingshot and fired at the crows. However, just when the old comprador Wu was beating the crows with his own hands, the previous subordinate came to the front of the old comprador Wu again, and said with a smile: "Master, those two little compradors refused to leave, and said that they knew the whereabouts of your great-grandson, and said that your great-grandson is in danger now, and if you don't hurry up to save it, I'm afraid it will be too late." ”

"What?" Old comprador Wu almost thought that he had heard it wrong, and he was so surprised that he forgot about the big thing of shooting crows, put down the slingshot and said suspiciously: "The great-grandson of the old man? The great-grandson from the old man? ”

"Master, the younger one also said that you don't have a great-grandson yet." The subordinate played truthfully: "But the two little deflated people said that they met a woman in the concession today who was chased and killed, and the woman held a little boy and told them that the little boy was your great-grandson, and asked them to report to you, and they thought it was strange, so they came here to report to you." ”

"How is that possible?" Old comprador Wu was dizzy, and subconsciously gave birth to a thought, "Could it be that the little rabbit cub is messing around outside, and he is crookedly giving birth to a great-grandson to the old man?" It's impossible, if the little rabbit cub really made some woman's belly bigger outside, he would definitely take the house? The old man's granddaughter-in-law is a sensible daughter. ”

Puzzled and extremely curious, Wu Lao comprador finally ordered to summon the two little hooligans of the Little Eight Shares Party, and as a result, after the two little hooligans were led in front of Wu Lao Comprador, they immediately knelt down and kowtowed together, and said tremblingly: "Ah Si, Ah Mei, the junior of the Little Eight Shares Party, knock on the old lady Shuang, the old lady Wanfu Jin'an." ”

"Get up." Old comprador Wu casually ordered: "There is no need to call it any cool old lady, the old man has already washed his hands in a golden basin, and he is called Master Daotai." ”

"Yes, yes, thank you Mrs. Shuang, thank you Mrs. Shuang."

The two little hooligans kowtowed again and again and replied stupidly, but after standing up cautiously, after looking up and seeing the appearance of Old Comprador Wu clearly, the two little hooligans invariably let out an exclamation, "Ah! ”

"Ahh Old comprador Wu asked majestically.

The two little rascals did not answer immediately, but first looked at each other, and then exclaimed in unison: "Old lady Shuang, that kid may really be your great-grandson!" ”

"Call Master Daotai!" Old comprador Wu emphasized with a majestic expression, and asked again: "Also, why do you say that the child may really be the great-grandson of the old man." ”

"Master Huidaotai, because that little boy looks too similar to you, it's like it's carved out of a mold."

A little rascal replied truthfully, and the other little rascal also nodded desperately, saying that the little boy and Wu Lao comprador looked exactly the same, and the chromosomes were so strong that he passed on his thin and ugly face to his son and grandson Wu Lao comprador was also a little interested when he heard it, and hurriedly said: "Tell me about the matter, what is the situation?" ”

"Old lady Huishuang, that's the case, a few days ago, a few people from other places found our Little Eight Shares Party and gave us Boss Ye fifty silver yuan, asking our Little Eight Shares Party to help them find a woman named Wu Xiuying, saying that whoever finds that woman will give him thirty silver yuan, and give us another hundred silver yuan ...... Boss Ye."

"They said that the woman's name was Wu Xiuying, with a son who was about four years old, who used to sell vegetables and knew kung fu, and her son's name was Wu Nianyue, oh, by the way, they also said that the woman had an authentic Qingpu accent."

After roughly introducing Xu Yao's experience of finding help from the Little Eight Shares Party, the two little hooligans cowered and told them about how they found their target, and said that after the woman asked them for help, they originally wanted to help the woman escape with the child, but Xu Yao and others caught up, and the woman ran away with the child first, and then they hurried to report to Wu Lao Comprador to warn him.

When the two little hooligans stated what had happened, the old comprador Wu didn't interject, and the more he listened to it, the more strange he felt, and he didn't understand why someone would spend a lot of money to find a mother and daughter surnamed Wu, and why the little boy named Wu Xiuying said that the little boy in her arms was her great-grandson? Why is that little boy said to look exactly like him?

Thinking suspiciously, Old Comprador Wu asked casually, "What does that woman look like?" ”

"Probably so tall, very slender, and very pretty, about twenty-three or four years old."

The two little hooligans worked hard to depict and compare the height of the woman, and then the little rascal suddenly remembered a big thing, and hurriedly added: "Yes, old lady Shuang, those who are looking for this woman also said that this woman may also be called Zhou Xiuying and call us ......." ”

The little rascal couldn't finish his words before he finished talking - because the old lady Wu Ashuangshuang, an old-timer in the rivers and lakes, had already pounced, personally choked his neck, and yelled with red eyes: "Zhou Xiuying?!" Are you sure that woman could still be called Zhou Xiuying?! ”

The little rascal nodded with a pale face, but the old comprador Wu opened his mouth to almost dislocation, his mind was completely blank, and he said secretly: "If that woman is Zhou Xiuying, that child may really be the great-grandson of the old man!" Little rabbit cub, I have always been obsessed with Zhou Xiuying's beautiful girl! ”

After coming to this conclusion, the old comprador Wu immediately roared like crazy, "Quick, prepare a sedan chair for the old man, go to the concession, and take all the old man's personal soldiers to the concession!" Besides, go and tell Deng Siyuan to immediately send two sentry regiments to the concession, bring short guns and wear civilian clothes, and immediately go to the concession to meet the old man! ”

After the entourage of the soldiers hurriedly went to prepare, the old comprador Wu casually grabbed a hooligan and yelled at him with red eyes: "Go and tell Ye Danshan, immediately take all his people to save the woman and her son, rescue people, it's easy to say anything, the old man will definitely not be able to treat him badly!" If that woman's son loses a single hair, none of the people in the Little Bagu Party will want to live! The old man put all of you into a sack and threw it into the Huangpu River to feed the fish! And even your whole family! ”

The little rascal agreed in a hurry, and rushed back to report the news, while the old comprador Wu yelled at his back: "By the way, tell the other gangs in the concession that whoever can find the woman and her son will be safely delivered to the old man, and the old man will reward him with 30,000 silver yuan!" ”

The little hooligan hurriedly agreed, and rushed faster in a row, and the old comprador Wu grabbed another little hooligan and yelled at him: "Lead the way for the old man, as long as you can take the old man to find the woman and her son, the old man will not worry about eating and drinking for the rest of your family!" ”

The other little rascal hurriedly nodded again and again, and the old comprador Wu kept yelling and urging his soldiers and entourage to hurry up and prepare, while rubbing his hands together with excitement, and the words in his mouth, "I hope it's true, I hope it's true!" It must be true, it must be true, it must be true if that little girl is it! ”

"Good great-grandson, you must hold on, you must wait for me, grandpa will come to save you immediately, grandpa will come to save you in person immediately!"

Coincidentally, when the old comprador Wu rushed onto the sedan chair, the crows that had been hovering over the customs yamen did not know if they had taken the wrong medicine again, so they suddenly spread their wings and flew away, and they flew clean all of a sudden. The old comprador Wu, who was getting on the sedan chair, saw it strangely, and couldn't help but say in his heart: "Is it really here to report to the old man?" But God sent an unlucky crow to report to the old man, what the hell is this? ”

Puzzled, Old comprador Wu had already yelled and urged before he could sit down, "Quick! Fast! Go to the concession! Fast! Hurry! ”

Wu Lao comprador is also a very delicate person, urging the sedan chair man to hurry, but still did not forget to send someone to rush to the concession first, contact the Ministry of Industry Bureau, which is equivalent to the concession city government, and let the Ministry of Industry Bureau pretend not to see what is about to happen, and send someone home to get the silver and send it to the concession urgently, bribing the people in charge of the Ministry of Industry Bureau. At the same time, the ruthless old comprador Wu also had such thoughts for the career of his precious grandson............

"If it's really Zhou Xiuying and the old man's great-grandson, then kill Zhou Xiuying! The old man doesn't want an anti-thief woman to affect the old man's precious grandson! ”

…………

At the same time, poor Zhou Xiuying's mother and son have also been cornered by the Taiping Army secret service.

Relying on the temporary blockade of the patrol, after luckily opening up the distance with Xu Yao and others, Zhou Xiuying relied on her familiarity with the terrain and successfully got rid of the pursuers, but she had no choice but to hold her son in her arms, Zhou Xiuying's speed could not reach the fastest, and there was no way to completely get rid of the pursuers. And with the decline of physical strength, as well as various unexpected obstacles along the way, the distance between Zhou Xiuying and Xu Yao and others is still gradually shrinking, forced to helpless, Zhou Xiuying can only take the risk of rushing into the back door of a tea house that happened to open, kneeling down to the guy who opened the back door, and begging: "Sir, help me, someone is chasing me, me and my son are in danger, please let me go in and hide." In the future, I will definitely repay you, I will definitely repay you. ”

Zhou Xiuying's luck is not bad, the guy who opened the back door is quite good-hearted, and when he saw that someone was really chasing after him, he immediately closed the back door and whispered to Zhou Xiuying: "Come with me, I'll take you to find a place to hide." ”

Zhou Xiuying was busy thanking her, and the guy led Zhou Xiuying to the corner of the backyard where the debris was stacked, let Zhou Xiuying's mother and son hide in the debris, and found something to completely cover Zhou Xiuying's mother and son.

But it's also a pity that Zhou Xiuying's action of hiding in this tea house was still seen by Xu Yao and others, although the kind guy repeatedly insisted that no one came in and refused to open the door, Xu Yao and others did not dare to break in and arrest people. just gathered together and hurriedly discussed, and then Xu Yao also came up with a very vicious bad idea, saying: "Surround this tea house, I will go to the gang in the concession, this tea house is not opened by foreigners, and I will never dare to offend the gang in the concession, and let the gang force them to hand over." ”

decided to do this, after Wang Zhengshan and others secretly surrounded the tea house, Xu Yao quickly found Ye Danshan, the boss of the Little Eight Shares Party, in the hall of the Little Eight Shares Party, and promised to ask Ye Danshan to come forward to suppress the tea house. As a result, although Ye Danshan agreed, he said that he must get the silver first, Xu Yao had no choice but to hurriedly return to his residence to bring the cash, and wasted a lot of time to ask Ye Danshan to move.

Xu Yao's idea is also very effective, after Ye Danshan came to the tea house with the gang thugs, the owner of the unlucky tea house was afraid of the revenge of the Little Eight Shares Party, so he didn't dare to stop it, and agreed to let Xu Yao and others go in to search for people, and at the same time, the guy who was kind enough to help Zhou Xiuying's mother and son was also beaten by the hooligans of the Little Eight Shares Party and forced him to explain the whereabouts of Zhou Xiuying's mother and son.

When the kind-hearted guy was still hesitating whether to betray Zhou Xiuying's mother and son, Xu Yao, Ye Hehua, Wang Zhengshan and others had already rushed into the not too big backyard of the tea house, looking for the whereabouts of Zhou Xiuying's mother and son, Xu Yao also said with a smug smile: "Sister Xiuying, come out, don't hide, you can't run away." ”

"Sister Zhou, come out, we are sisters, if you have anything to say to sit down and say well, don't worry, we won't embarrass you, let alone hurt your son."

Ye Lotus also said in a gentle voice: "Come out, long live Dongwang said, when you and your son arrive in Tianjing, he guarantees that you will live very well, and he will treat your son like his own son, and will not let him suffer the slightest hardship or sin." ”

Tempted by beautiful words, Wang Zhengshan, Ye Hehua and others finally noticed the corner where Zhou Xiuying's mother and son were hiding, and noticed the dense and unusual corner, at the moment, Wang Zhengshan and others surrounded the corner with guns, and Ye Lotus came forward and said: "Sister Zhou, are you hiding here, right?" Come out, don't force us to do it, I still want to continue to be sisters with you. ”

"Xiuying, come out." Xu Yao also smiled proudly and said, "Don't worry, although you have been defiled by other men and have given birth to a son, I will not dislike you, and I will never dislike you." ”

"Still discovered." Zhou Xiuying covered her son's mouth, tears rolled down, and said secretly: "What should I do?" It may be too late to commit suicide, but what can I do? Fake foreign devil, I'm sorry for you, I gave birth to a son for you, but I can't protect him, protect your own son, ....... ”

At this time, Wang Zhengshan, who had already made sufficient preparations, said that Xu Yao over there would understand, and immediately reached out to pull the empty sack that covered Zhou Xiuying's mother and son, and the muzzles of more than a dozen revolvers were already aimed at the pile of debris......
