"I heard my father say that Feng Gonggong is very powerful, although what Feng Bangning did was very bad, it was not a great crime, even if Hu Zhongcheng wanted to take care of it, he might not be able to do anything to him. Besides, this guy is very bad, and after bullying the girl, he went to the girl's house to send some silver taels as a dowry, and let the girl be the wife of his subordinates, or buy someone and be his maid. His men would forge a bunch of paperwork and other formalities to deal with the government. is obviously bullying a woman, so he became a maid in his house, and others can't say anything. It's just some poor women, where do they have the strength to fight a lawsuit? Hu Zhongcheng can only ask everyone to be careful, avoid what they can avoid, hide if they can, and don't rely too much on the government, so that they can save as many girls as possible. Daddy invited Feng Bangning to dinner once, as if to remind him not to mess around, but if he was disobedient, he couldn't say it. ”

Fan Jin is actually not interested in this kind of thing, mainly because he can't find a suitable entry point and a decent excuse. If you don't offend Feng Bao, there's no need. But looking at Xu Liu's shy and lovely appearance, his heart couldn't help but soften, and he blurted out:

"How can I help?"

"I don't know." Xu Liu looked innocent, flashing big eyes, and looked up at Fan Jin, at that moment Fan Jin almost suspected that her eyes would turn into stars, and her demeanor was clearly that the little fan girl was looking at an idol. "I know that brother-in-law, you are the most capable, even smallpox can think of a way to deal with it, there is nothing in the world that is difficult to live with brother-in-law. No matter how bad Feng Bangning is, he can't hurt smallpox, and his brother-in-law will definitely be able to do it. ”

Fan Jin smiled dumbly, "In the eyes of Miss Six, is Fan so good?" ”

"Of course. Brother-in-law can be literate and martial, and he is a real hero and talent. I went to ask about it, and I learned that my brother-in-law had leveled pirates and Luo Shanman when he was in Guangdong. I heard that a big case was handled in Jingshi, and even Weng Sikou was made to take off his veil hat by you. Also, I heard from my mother that even my uncle was going to be cleaned up by my brother-in-law. ”

Fan Jin suddenly remembered that the mother of the cute girl in front of him was the eldest lady of the Qianguo Mansion. Mu Chaobi who did it by herself is her siblings, and thinking about Mrs. Mu's strong appearance, Fan Jin felt inexplicably nervous. If you are hated by this noble lady, it is not easy to provoke.

Xu Liu saw that Fan Jin was silent, as if he guessed what he was thinking, and hurriedly said: "Brother-in-law, don't worry, my mother is not an unreasonable person." Besides, the uncle hurt the eldest uncle, and both sides are the mother's brothers, so the mother will not favor one over the other, and she has to hate her brother-in-law in order to protect her uncle. Besides, there is me, if my mother dares to bully my brother-in-law, I will ......"

Although a trace of dark clouds passed through Fan Jin's heart, he was immediately amused by Xu Liu's cute appearance, and only asked with a smile: "How are you?" ”

He smiled, Xu Liu's face turned redder again, the head that had just been raised was heavy and lowered, and the branches in his hands had been bald, so he folded the supple branches in his hands and formed them into irregular shapes. "I ...... I'm just crying. My mother is most afraid that I will cry, and as soon as I cry, my mother will respond to me in everything. I will protect my brother-in-law, because I am good friends with Sister Zhang, and I will protect my brother-in-law for Sister Zhang's sake. ”

"Okay, well, with Miss Six's words, I can stay at ease in Jurong. Otherwise, I would have no choice but to flee lest I be killed by my wife. ”

"How can my mother be so fierce." Xu Liu protested quietly, but when he looked up, he saw Fan Jin looking at himself with a smile, and realized that he was making fun of himself. Her face was as red as the morning glow at this time, but she smiled unconsciously, such an attitude was probably the most expected for her. A brother-in-law who is willing to laugh with her, does not dislike the pockmarks on her face, and loves her like a sister and occasionally teases her is a good brother-in-law.

Fan Jin said: "Feng Bangning's matter, I will find a way." In fact, he has a bit of a brain, and such a person is easier to deal with than an idiot who doesn't know what to do. Miss Six, as long as you interact more with the people of the Begonia Society, hold more literary meetings, and let him know who your people are, he won't mess around. After all, in the Jiangning area, it is still the world of Grandpa Guo. He turned out to be a guest, and Grandpa Guo asked him three points, and he himself had to know what was good or bad, otherwise he would be asking for trouble. As for the future, I will also write a letter to Gonggong Feng, hoping that he can discipline his children and nephews. I have a few acquaintances with Gonggong Feng, and he will support his nephew, but it also depends on the situation. He would have been principled in something like now. ”

"Everything is arranged by my brother-in-law." Somehow, as soon as he heard Fan Jin's voice, Xu Liu felt that he had a bottom in his heart. The old father actually thought about a similar idea, but in her opinion, it was useless and unreliable, and in Fan Jin's words, it was a clever plan.

Fan Jin said again: "There is one more thing, I also asked Miss Six to help me, but I don't know if it's convenient or not." ”

Xu Liu raised his head and said, "Okay, okay, brother-in-law just have to say something." As long as my brother-in-law wants me to do it, I will definitely try my best to do it, even if I can't do it, and my brother, my father and my mother, nothing can stump them......"

As soon as she said this, she couldn't help but think of the pockmarks on her face. At this time, the sun was abundant, and this incomplete must have been seen by her brother-in-law, and when she thought of Zhang Shunqing's immortal appearance and her own flaws, her state of mind as sunny as the weather was unconsciously clouded. The latter words were swallowed back, bowing his head and remaining silent.

Fan Jin said: "Don't tell Grandpa Guo about this, and don't tell Madame." I only ask Miss Six to be alone, and only you can help me, it depends on whether you are willing to agree. ”

At this time, there was no one around, the mountains were silent, and Xu Liu's heart was inexplicably tightened. remembered what Fan Jin said to a woman, never let a man enter the boudoir, otherwise even he would not be able to control his words when he was alone and widowed. Looking around, I don't know how when, the two of them have walked into the depths of the woods, far away from the girls outside, and no one can see them. Although it is daytime, but this forest is remote and no one walks, isn't it also a lonely man and a widow?

Although the sky was clear, a thunderclap sounded inexplicably in the girl's heart, and her heart tightened. I don't know if it was joy or nervousness, the branches fell to the ground, the little hands clenched into fists, and the voice trembled, "Brother-in-law...... I'm definitely not going to say it...... But you have to think about my sister......"

"She's too far away to count on, so I can only beg you."

The man's gaze was like lightning, which made the girl's heart beat wildly, and the person retreated, and after a while, his back had been attached to the trunk of the tree and there was no way back. She closed her eyes as if resigned, and said with a flushed face: "I should be you, I should be you...... But don't ...... here."

"Of course not, this is a Maoshan temple property, there is nothing to check. What I ask you to check is the gentry and eunuch of the entire Jurong, this job is difficult to do, if you don't want to do it, I won't force you. Think about it before you get back to me. ”

Temple ...... Gentry?

The girl was nervous, and the blood all over her body was concentrated in her head, and she had already drained all her strength by making that answer. didn't react for a long time, what Fan Jin said, I saw that he didn't pounce on him and kiss him like Li, and felt strange in his heart, and after a while, he realized that what Fan Jin begged her to do was actually to investigate the number of acres of land of the gentry here. His face turned red and white, and he suddenly sobbed in a low voice, reached out and grabbed the branch next to him, and threw the broken branch of the leaf towards Fan Jin's head and body, crying as he threw it:

"Brother-in-law is bad! Brother-in-law bullies! I hate my brother-in-law the most! ”

Fan Jin took a handkerchief and handed it to her to wipe her tears while dodging, but Xu Liu was just crying. Fan Jin also realized at this time why when she cried, Mrs. Mu was afraid. It's really such a cute girl who cries, so that no one can't help but soften their hearts, and she is no exception, as if she really did something wrong, so she had to bow and say:

"It's my fault, I shouldn't let Miss Six do such a mundane thing......"

"Don't call Miss Six!" A handful of leaves were thrown over, and they were basically blown away by the wind, so Fan Jin had to pick up a few leaves and throw them on her head, help her dissipate her anger, and changed her words: "It's the sixth sister......

The branch in Xu Liu's hand was not thrown over.

"Is the sixth sister a monk, I shouldn't let you be a worldly person, it's because I don't think about it and should be punished. In fact, I also have a hard time, you know this kind of thing best, the industry is not trivial, you can't find outsiders. I can't find anyone of my own to help here, and I'm the only one who is you, Sixth Sister. It was my illness that rushed to the doctor, and it was my brother-in-law's fault, and I would never dare to do it again. Don't be angry with me, don't cry, or those girls will see it later, and they don't know what to think. ”

Xu Liu threw the branch in his hand, wiped his tears with a handkerchief, and snorted a few more times and said, "Brother-in-law...... You really think I am...... Own? ”

"Of course, of course, it's my own people."

"Forget it. I forgive you this time, and the next time you bully someone, I'll ...... I'll just ignore you anymore! Xu Liu snorted threateningly, "Brother-in-law, you just passed by Jurong and asked why this kind of thing is going on?" What does it matter to you about other people's fields? ”

Fan Jin looked at her, "It's a secret, it shouldn't have been said." But I believe that the sixth sister can keep it a secret for me, and I will only say ...... listen to you."

He briefly described what he might have been put to do in the southeast, although the specific lack of points is not clear, but it is about the same. The specific work is to lay a good foundation for Zhang Juzheng to implement the new law. The so-called new law is inseparable from the fields and fields, and understanding these by yourself is to collect data for the future development of the new law. If this kind of thing is handed over to the officials, it is no different from not doing it. It is not necessary for non-cronies and shrewd people.

Xu Liu is a woman, and she is a famous lady, so she will not arouse suspicion. She is in this Begonia Club and has dealings with a group of eldest ladies and boring noblewomen, and it is easy to investigate clearly from the perspective of female dependents. After all, nowadays those who do the main house must have the quality of financial management and field management to be competent, and many large families are quite clear about their own property.

"Brother-in-law...... Are you going to put it in Gangnam? Not going back to Beijing? Xu Liu, who still had tears on his face, smiled again at this time, like a blooming flower. Fan Jin nodded, "Don't tell it, secret." ”

"Well, I know, secret!" Xu Liu nodded solemnly, approached Fan Jin a little, and said in a low voice: "Brother-in-law, don't worry, I will handle this matter for you." There are many girls here who still want to join the Begonia Society, but their writing is too poor, and I don't want them to join. But for the sake of my brother-in-law, I decided to give them a chance. I'll find out what my brother-in-law wants to inquire about from them, and I'll send the news to the inn. ”

"You're not crying?"

"I won't cry if my brother-in-law treats me as his own, but if my brother-in-law ...... If you are still bullying people like today, I will really ignore you. Xu Liu didn't forget to threaten Fan Jin again, and then followed him out of the woods. Fan Jin tried to get his handkerchief back, but Xu Liu held it tightly, shook his head and said, "If you don't give it, you just don't give it!" You're so angry with me that you're crying, shouldn't you give me a handkerchief? Every time I cry, my mother makes me something to eat, and this time you only pay a handkerchief, which is already very cheap. ”

Fan Jin shook his head helplessly, and said in his heart: She and Wei Yongnian didn't know how to get along at the beginning. Thinking about it, if he cried coquettishly at every turn like now, Wei Yongnian didn't approve of it in his heart, and the world of the two was too far apart.

When they came out of the woods, the two of them had more words than they were, and Xu Liu was very satisfied with Fan Jin's statement of his own people, although his eyes were red, his face was already full of smiles. secretly reminded himself in his heart: You can't think nonsense, your brother-in-law is a decent gentleman, how could he do unreasonable things to you when they meet for the first time. It's me who thinks bad, it's me who is too bad. When you go back, you must recite the scriptures several times, and ask the gods and Buddhas to bless your brother-in-law with good luck...... After going back, I still learned embroidery from Wang Ma first, and embroidered something on this handkerchief. What the hell is embroidered so that my sister can't see that I embroidered it, which is a difficult thing.

For the girl at this time, there is never a lack of passion in life, and there is never a lack of difficulties. Anything can be her point of interest, like a handkerchief, or those fields. In the meantime, she actually didn't know what was at stake, she only knew that her brother-in-law needed it, and she had to help. As for the consequences of this data in the future, it has nothing to do with her sixth miss.

When Fan Jin, who had finished the literary meeting, returned to the inn, he was also secretly worried in his heart, Xu Liu's attitude was a little too much, but if he blindly rejected her thousands of miles away and hurt this lovely girl, he would be afraid that it would be difficult for him to gain a foothold here in the future. After all, no matter how powerful Zhang Juzheng is, he is just a strong dragon, and the hereditary nobles are the head snakes.

He was thinking about this question, and when he came to the outside of the room, he heard that in the room, Zheng Chan was comforting someone with a voice full of maternal love: "Young Master Jiyin, don't cry, with your godfather here, he will definitely make decisions for you." I have long seen that your eldest mother is not a thing, your father's bones are not cold, she is going to sell your mother, and for the sake of the Jingshi folks, I will not sit idly by and watch this matter. If you call me Aunt Zheng, I will go to help you beg your godfather and let him save people. ”
