The hustle and bustle outside the courtyard couldn't break through the low wall, Sister Hu listened to the movement outside, and looked at Fan Jin with some worry: "Brother Jin, will Mr. Hong be okay?" ”

"Of course there will be something, the age is already very old, and it is very common to suffer a stroke and paralysis when you encounter this kind of blow. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoDon't look at him as a domineering person in the township, in fact, he is just an old man in the countryside, how can he bear such a big pressure. On the surface, he wants to be tough, in order to give the juniors confidence, but he is actually not sure, just holding on, just holding on, just like a bow that is strong to be full, and the final result is naturally that the bow breaks and the string collapses. This is his due retribution, and you don't have to worry about anything for him. Another thing to remember is that he is no longer the chief A, and the new chief A in Jinsha Township is Chang Wangbo. In the future, if Chang Wangbo sends him to your house, he will give me my name. ”

"I don't have to report my brother's name, and Chang Wangbo won't send my family's errand, and the people in the village say that I entered my brother's ...... He's good to my family. Sister Hu was embarrassed to say the word little daughter-in-law, but the meaning of the words was already very clear.

tentatively grabbed Fan Jin's hand, and saw that he didn't wave himself away, so he held it tighter, gently rested his head on Fan Jin's shoulder, and desperately thought of herself as the wife of the man next to her, which was the greatest happiness of this little woman. Crying outside and shouting grandpa, in the small courtyard, the girl's heart was full of joy, and she didn't care about the life or death of an old man.

The two grandsons of the Hong family shouted and shouted outside, and they made a fuss for a while, before they gradually lost their voices, probably helping Hong Chengen to find Langzhong. Fan Jin thought in his heart that the Hong family liked to monopolize power because of Hong Chengen's strength before, and if there was anyone in the clan who could threaten his status, most of them would be cleaned up by Hong Chengen's tricks first.

The advantage of this is of course that the Hong family can maintain a voice, and Hong Chengen's authority can be maintained, but the disadvantage is that once Hong Chengen suddenly falls, the power in the clan is not easy to be stable and excessive, and there is no one who has enough weight to come out to support the scene. At the moment when the Hong family is in a difficult situation both internally and externally, and they have lost such a capable patriarch, even if Fan Jin lets them go, the Hong family is afraid that they will be greatly injured, and they don't plan to recover their vitality for decades.

Fan Jin believes that Chang Wangbo will not live up to his hopes, and there must be a way to take advantage of his illness to kill him, so that the Hong family will never recover. Cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, taking advantage of the fire to rob these survival wisdom does not need to be taught, it has long been a necessary skill for these patriarchs and village elders.

Since the two have formed a feud, Fan Jin naturally hopes to beat the enemy to the point that he loses the ability to resist, and some things that are inconvenient for him to do have to be completed with the power of the clan elders. In the past, the means that the Hong family imposed on other surnames, as long as they were used on him in the same way, it was enough to make the Hong family decline from now on.

Once the number one stubborn enemy, now it seems that it is just as ridiculous as an ant. Fan Jin couldn't help but sigh again in his heart: Jiaolong can only prosper and rain when he enters the sea, and he is trapped on the beach, even if he has a thousand means, it is useless. Whether the Hong family is dead or alive is no longer in the way of the overall situation, and what needs to be considered now is how to distribute the meat on this corpse.

As the informant who found out about this matter, and has the tiger skin of the governor Yamen, the yamen must share the profits with Fan Jin, except for this part, even the benefits handed over by the Hong family are also quite considerable. Even if there are some benefits that Fan Jin can't use himself, it is a very good gift to give to others. Sister Hu was busy cooking in the kitchen, Fan Jin looked at her slender back and asked:

"I haven't been to see the three stores of the Hong family, have you seen it, eldest sister? If there's one you like, I'll give you one. ”

Sister Hu doesn't know how to cook any exquisite dishes, but her hands and feet are very nimble, and she cooks home-cooked food very quickly, and she said while she was busy: "I don't want it." It was given to my brother, and I can't take it. ”

"What's yours and mine, as long as you want, I'll give you a place."

The movement of her hand slowed down a little, and she hesitated for a moment before asking, "Really...... Really? Will it make the aunt or the elders in the village unhappy? ”

"My mother won't be upset, as for the villagers...... It doesn't matter to me whether they're happy or not. Which do you want? ”

"I know that the Hong family has a small grocery store near the city gate, and I want to give it to my brother, and I also know that my brother has always been careless, and he is a lesson from Daddy, and he probably refuses to listen. If it goes on like this, I don't know what will happen in the future, and I think if there is a career to manage him, maybe he can learn well. I know this is too demanding, don't be angry, just let me tell you a joke. ”

Fan Jin said: "A grocery store? It's not a difficult matter, I'll give him another ten taels of silver as a capital to support the store. But you also make it clear to him, I will only help him this time, if he causes any trouble in the future and asks your sister to save his life, I will not care about him every time. ”

"Brother Jin...... Are you serious? Are you really willing to give a shop to your little brother? Sister Hu turned around, her face was full of joy, and then she remembered something, and asked timidly, "The black widow...... I mean, the third sister, does she have any? ”

Fan Jin shook his head, and the smile on Sister Hu'er's face was even bigger, and even the speed of stir-frying was faster than Fang Cai. Fan Jin secretly said in his heart: The third sister is going to do big business in the future, what is the use of her coming to this small shop?

Sister Hu's mood obviously became better because of the answer given by Fan Jin, fried a few dishes, and went to the small shop outside the door to get half a catty of wine back, put a cup in front of Fan Jin, and added wine to the cup with a pot in his hand.

Fan Jin beckoned her to sit down and eat together, she shook her head and said, "I...... I should serve my brother, and my father at home doesn't allow me to eat at the table, and I will eat when my brother finishes eating. Her face flushed slightly, and she lowered her head and said, "Daddy will probably live in the inn tonight, and my stepmother doesn't care about my business, I can say ...... I live with the third sister, and they won't go to the third sister to ask. I live here and it doesn't matter. ”

"With me, don't be so particular, even if you pass the door in the future, you will be on an equal footing with me, you don't have to serve me, and I'm not without hands and feet. Come, sit down and eat. After eating, you'd better go back, it's not that you are not welcome to stay, but we have no name after all, you stay here...... It's not good, why should you tell the uncle this good news, and if your stepmother gossips, things are not very convenient. I have to work hard to go back to the uncle, go to the village, tell my mother and the patriarch about this matter, the patriarch has to go to the city, kowtow to Eryin, and then go to Foshan to see my teacher. After becoming the grain chief, I will inevitably have to deal with the six rooms, and I have to take him around the rooms and pave a way out. ”

Sister Hu, who was a little disappointed, immediately squeezed out a smile again, stood beside Fan Jin with a wine jug, and refused to sit down no matter what Fan Jin said. In her opinion, being able to serve Brother Jin all the time and watch him eat and drink wine is even happier than eating it herself. As for sitting on an equal footing, that is the treatment only that only a big woman has, and she can't trespass.

There was a knock on the courtyard door again, and a familiar loud voice sounded: "Enter brother!" Big sister! Open the door! Why don't you send someone to send a message to the uncle for such a good thing, and let the uncle come to congratulate you, thanks to the kind father in the yamen who communicated with me, I only knew that Brother Jin had done such a majestic thing. ”

At the opening of the courtyard gate, Hu butcher, who had been hiding in Tibet for a few days, carried fire meat in one hand and a bottle of wine in the other, and walked into the courtyard with his body swaying. Seeing the wine and food in front of Fan Jin, he said to his daughter: "You girl doesn't know anything, now that Brother Jin is a person next to Master Zhongcheng, how can you still eat this shoddy diet?" If you let your colleagues in that scene see it, you won't laugh and lose your big teeth? It's too late to go to the big restaurant now, go to the nearby restaurant to pick up a few good dishes, and Daddy will congratulate my brother on it! ”

As he spoke, he put the wine and meat on the stone table, and raised his big finger and said, "Brother Jin, I have heard everything about you." Mr. Hong is such a luxurious character, this time he has been subdued by you, I am afraid that you will have to take out a few hundred taels of silver to buy his net worth, and now you will make a windfall. On the same day, the uncle said, our Xiaofanzhuang has good feng shui, and it is suitable for a personal masterpiece, and this person's masterpiece must be on the head of Brother Jin, and it is true when I see it today. Come on, Uncle will have a few drinks with you and be happy. Eldest sister, why are you still like a piece of wood, go grocery shopping. This girl, she is still so stupid when she grows so big, how can she be a lady in the future. ”

Sister Hu stood there still, her eyes only looked at Fan Jin, Fan Jin gave her a piece of silver, nodded and said: "According to what the uncle said, only pick the good ones, if the money is not enough, owe it first, and I will go back and make up for him." ”

Waiting for Sister Hu to go out, Hu Butcher looked at his daughter's back, shook his head and said, "I'm a stupid girl, my life is hard." I didn't have a mother before I was ten years old, and I, as a father, had to be both a father and a mother, pulling her to this day. In terms of appearance, in our Xiaofanzhuang, that is the first-class character, that is, in the provincial capital, there are many fathers who look good. If it weren't for her to help her get into her brother's luck, I'm afraid that she wouldn't have been the wife of a family earlier, wearing gold and silver to make slaves and maids, and why would she still use herself to buy vegetables. ”

Fan Jin smiled, didn't answer Hu Butcher's words, and only toasted him with a glass of wine, "Uncle, you are also a person on the scene, you don't have to bend your bow when you speak." The eldest sister is not here at the moment, let's talk about it in the open, and talk to each other more smoothly. ”

Hu Butcher laughed a few times, looked at Fan Jin for a while, and drank a glass of wine in one gulp. "Jin Zai, I always feel that you have changed. Speaking of which, although I am not surnamed Fan, I am also an old family in Fanzhuang, and I can be regarded as watching you grow up. When you were a child, you were a loyal descendant, like your father, honest and honest, and didn't like to talk much. When I grew up, I didn't like to talk to people very much, and I was very loyal to people. But in the past two years, you have become a little unclear to the uncle, and there are some things in you that are different from the past. ”

"Uncle, people will always change, if you don't make yourself stronger in this world, aren't you waiting to be eaten? Just like the Hong family, I ate him today, and he looks very majestic. But a few years back, when they were going to eat our Fan family, they didn't see where they went. After all, it's better to kill a pig than to be killed. ”

"Yes, that's a good thing. is worthy of being a scholar, and he can always tell some truth, which is much stronger than your uncle. I'm a rough person, I don't know a few words, and I don't have so many scheming, and I must suffer a loss by using my brain with you readers. Therefore I will speak in the open. The eldest sister is already like this, I can't control my daughter, and I can't blame others. If you go to Nanhai County to sue my brother for abducting a woman from a good family, won't you lose face in our Fan Zhuang? At present, the Hong family has handed over the grain chief, and the new grain chief must be the old patriarch of the Fan family, if it is for such a thing, and he is the patriarch of the old man's family, I am a sinner. So this thing can't be done, but a girl raised since childhood, there is no reason to give it away, you are a scholar, I don't need to say more about this reason. ”

"What do you mean, uncle?"

Hu Butcher drank another glass of wine, put two chopsticks of hot meat into his mouth, and said while smacking the taste: "I was sent to procure this time, although the Hong family wanted to frame me, but my own footsteps did not stand firm. If I have a few acres of land at home, I won't be assigned poorly, isn't that the truth? Besides, there is the second brother, he is not young, and he has nothing to do all day, which is not a long-term solution. I heard that this time, the Hong family will vacate a few vacancies? ”

Fan Jin picked up the wine jug and poured a glass of wine for Hu Butcher, "Uncle, be content." I'll figure out a way to deal with the field, and about one or twenty acres of fertile land can still be handled. Although the income is not much, but the uncle's main business is to kill pigs, and there is too much land to plant, and it is enough to have one or twenty acres to fill the nationality. These fields are all field skins, and there will be no field bones, but even the field skins can get rid of the poor force. As for the second brother's errand, I will guarantee him a helper of the Nanhai County Ya. If he only wants to be a servant...... It's not impossible, but you have to go to Foshan. ”

"Foshan? Forget it, this decrepit boy will definitely cause a big disaster if he goes to Foshan. Helper ...... It's also a helper, if you do it well, can't you also turn into a servant? ”

Fan Jin nodded, "As long as you are willing to do things, it is okay to be transferred to the government." I can take care of a few words when the time comes, and I will never let my brother suffer. But if you are confused, it is not easy for me to speak. ”

"Understood, understood. You may look down on me and think that I am selling my daughter, and the village is almost the same as me. I don't argue with anything, whatever you say, and when you become a father in the future, you will be able to understand my thoughts. If I really didn't treat my eldest sister well, I would have married her casually a long time ago, so why raise her until now? I know what my daughter looks like, it's okay in the village, but I can't do it in the city. It is difficult to find a man who can be a bodhisattva for her, so I have to find someone who is rich, so that she does not have to work as hard as I do. As for the man's age and appearance, it doesn't matter, as long as she doesn't starve. In fact, such people are not absent, but that girl is as stubborn as a donkey, no one can marry except you, even if she is forced to marry, there will be no good results. I haven't left her alone in the past few years, let her have a relationship with you, I just want to open it, she can do whatever she likes, as long as you treat her well and don't make big jokes. As for these things, it is also to leave a way out for her, if she is kicked out by your eldest woman in the future, I, the father, will always have to leave an inheritance for her to support her in the elderly. ”

"This glass of wine, I salute the uncle, and I thank the uncle for the kindness of the eldest sister. Please rest assured that Fan also has arrangements for the eldest sister and will never let her use this property. ”

"As soon as I say that, I will believe the words of your scholars, and come and drink!"

When the two wine glasses touched, the aroma of wine overflowed, and Sister Hu, who was listening to the outside of the door, felt like a pot was boiling in her heart. It turns out that his father loves him so much, and it turns out that Brother Jin also has arrangements for himself, as long as he is good to himself, what does it matter if he has an industry or not?

The moon bends and shines on Kyushu, and a few families are happy and a few are sad. The children of the Hong family looked at the old patriarch who suddenly suffered a stroke, causing his whole body to be unable to move, and he couldn't even speak clearly, and most of them had a sense of despair that the building was about to collapse and the end was coming.

The big tree was about to fall, but the monkey didn't know where to disperse, and the children of the Hong family all tensed their faces, not knowing what to say or what to do.

There was a quick knock on the door, and more than a dozen big men with thick faces stood outside the door with a slender man. When Hong Hai saw the visitor, the green tendons on his forehead almost collapsed, "I promised to give you the house for you, and I urged people to move in the middle of the night, how can there be such a reason?" ”

The slender man smiled coldly, "Brother Hong, everyone is a person on the scene, there is no need to go around in circles." I heard that Hong Chengen had a stroke, and he was about to die. If he recovers here, when will I be able to move into my new home? Besides, if he dies in this courtyard, won't he add bad luck to me? Move while you have the air, if you don't move, I'll help you move! ”

The two brothers, Hong Da'an and Hong Dagui, rushed forward anxiously to reason with each other, but were pushed aside by those big men. The person who came was the bookstore of Panyu, and he had already said hello to the patrol street, even if it was like here, no one would ask.

Hong Hai clenched his fists, but he didn't dare to punch them out casually, but the Panyu secretary had to ignore people. "It seems that you don't want to move yourself, so I'll have to help you. Brothers, do it! ”

Several accompanying thugs poured into the courtyard together, and the nephews of the Hong family were guarding the door, and the two inevitably had physical conflicts and entanglements, and it was obvious that the Hong family, who had no leader, fell behind. At this moment, the slender clerk suddenly felt his neck tighten, and a cold hand, for some time, had already grabbed his throat and prevented him from shouting, but the hand was violently forced, and the clerk didn't even scream, and he was already unconscious. The person who shot had already caught his sliding body, as if he was supporting a drunk, and held him up.

"Stop." A deep voice sounded in the night, and the thugs turned around, only to see a dozen more dark shadows on the street at some point, standing behind their own group.

The leader crossed the thugs, came to the door of the small courtyard, and patted Hong Da'an on the shoulder, "Brother-in-law, my sister misses you very much, let me, a brother, come and take a look." I heard that your Hong family is in some trouble, is there anything I can help with? Everyone is your own person, if you have something to say, don't be polite. Whoever bullies you, I'll help you get ahead. ”

The thugs were about to turn their faces and scold, but they found that these people were carrying weapons and metal gauntlets around their waists, reflecting the light in the moonlight, and they were cold.

There were also battles in the rivers and lakes of Guangzhou, and the disappearance of more than a dozen thugs did not attract too much attention, after all, the military situation was like fire, and there was no need to care about some trivial matters.
