Chapter 252: Pang Wanchun's conditions

Nothing happened overnight, the next day Zhang San and a few people went to Taolao Ferry, Taolao Ferry as one of the many ferries on the Huai River, there is nothing special, there are three Zhuangzi on the side of the ferry are Taojiazhuang, Wangjiazhuang and Xiejiazhuang. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoEach surname occupies a Zhuangzi.

There is a place of Mengwa Lake to the south of Zhuangzi, it is said that the Huai River water will be flooded when it is in the rainy season, and after the rainy season, the water flows away to form large and small reeds, and Pang Wanchun brothers and sisters live on the Huai River embankment, and build three grass houses to farm and fish and hunt for a living.

Zhang San walked to the ferry, did not rush to find the Pang family brothers and sisters, but sat in the tea shed at the ferry and listened to the old tea officer talk about the story here.

It is no different from other places, located on the Huai River, where the three families meet is a large paddy field, and there are always several fights every year because of the fight for water for rice, so the three Zhuangzi here are extremely united and xenophobic, and these outsiders are not only not allowed to live in their Zhuangzi, but even build houses next to the Zhuangzi.

Therefore, the Huaihe River embankment has become the residence of these people with foreign surnames, and the way for people with foreign surnames to obtain land is only in this Mengwa Lake, relying on the sky to eat, and the land is enough, but it is indeed two floods in three years, and there is almost nothing left over when they go to the field rent.

Pang Wanchun's family is not complicated, his father fled here from nowhere, cultivated a few acres of thin fields, and fished and hunted with a good arrow. Gradually, the days improved, and she married a girl from the Wang family in Xicun and gave birth to a son and a daughter, Pang Wanchun and Pang Qiuxia.

The thing is very simple, Pang Wanchun's father because he married the daughter of the Wang family, naturally stood on the side of the Wang family when he fought for water, shot and injured several men of the Tao family, and was set on fire in the middle of the night.

After this blow, only orphans and widows were left, and the daughter of the Wang family was also strong, refusing her mother's request to remarry, and relying on her own hands to raise a pair of children every morning and evening, she was helpless and haggard, and she also died when Pang Wanchun was fifteen years old.

Pang Wanchun and his sister depend on each other, Pang Wanchun practices archery every day in order to live and take revenge, hoping that one day he can find the enemy who killed his father and avenge his father. In the end, he inquired about the real culprit, and used the same method to burn Tao Cheng's family to death at home.

Zhang San knew that ancient clans rarely reported to the officials when they fought, and even if they reported to the officials, they would not care, and revenge and murder were legal in ancient times, so Zhang San was not surprised at all why Pang Wanchun could still live well after killing people.

Pang Wanchun's battle of fame is a wolf pack of more than ten wolves standing alone, shooting eight wolves, including the first wolf, and even shooting geese, becoming a well-known marksman, as long as someone needs to get married within a radius of dozens of miles, he will be asked to shoot geese.

It was also at that time that Pang Wanchun met Xie Chunhua, the daughter of Xie Laoqi's family. The two had feelings for each other in adversity, and it happened that Xie Laoqi's father-in-law Tao Shun became lame because he was hit by Pang Wanchun's father's arrow.

So because of Xie's obstruction, the two have not been able to be together, Zhang Sanlai happened to happen, two days ago, the Yang family in Yang Qiaoji heard about the beauty and virtue of the daughter of Xie Laoqi's family, and specially gave Xie Laoqi a dowry of fifty taels of silver, in order to rejoice his stupid son.

The Yang family has eight shops in the Yangqiao set, operating rice, flour, grain and oil, daily necessities, and dozens of fertile fields, and the family is rich, Xie is ready to sell his daughter when he sees the money, and tomorrow is the day when the Yang family comes to greet his relatives.

After Zhang San listened to the old tea officer's babbling words, he knew that he was afraid that something big would happen tomorrow, so several people followed the direction of the old tea officer's guidance to Pang's house, walked three miles on the river embankment to a river bay, and inquired about a seven-year-old child who took Zhang San and others to the door of Pang's house.

The embankment is not very wide, so in addition to the three thatched houses on the embankment, there is only a small courtyard with a length of five meters and a width, and when I saw seven or eight tall horses, the people on the embankment came out to watch, and found Pang Wanchun's house, and Zhang San threw a few copper coins to the child. Go and shoot the courtyard gate.

Inside, I had already heard the sound of horses' hooves outside, and when I heard the door, a pair of brothers and sisters opened the door with a wary face, and when they arrived at the name, they said some long-admiring words, and seeing that Zhang San and others were carrying gifts, it was not easy to rush outside, Zhang San asked Zhang Yuanba to watch the horses outside and salute. took Shi Wengong and Gongsun Sheng into the courtyard.

Zhang San did not beat around the bush and said bluntly to Pang Wanchun: "Zhang passed by nearby, I heard that Pang Wanchun is a strong man with archery skills, my business is getting bigger and bigger, and there is a lack of guards. ā€

Pang Wanchun was still in a daze, and suddenly a large number of businessmen claiming to be from the capital broke into the courtyard, and one by one they rode tall horses, ran to him and told him that he wanted to ask himself to be a guard, and he would be a hundred times a month.

How much is a hundred, anyway, Pang Wanchun has never seen it, but looking at the bright dress of silk and satin one by one, it will not be a pastime for himself, and he has nothing worthy of such a person to come and laugh at.

Pang Wanchun secretly looked at the bow and quiver in the house, thinking about the heartbroken face of Xie Chunhua who went to see Xie Chunhua last night, Pang Wanchun finally made a decision, since there was a glimmer of life, why should he risk robbing relatives and killing people.

Pang Wanchun looked at Zhang San and plucked up the courage to say: "I Pang Mou was originally a farmer, and I should have agreed immediately, but there is something I want to ask Zhang Daguan to help, if the big official helps me fulfill my wish, I am willing to go with you to repay the great kindness." ā€

Zhang San smiled slightly: "Brother Pang said to listen to it." ā€

Pang Wanchun saw that Zhang San did not object, and said with some excitement: "There is a Xie family village in the north of my house, the daughter of the seventh child of the Xie family met me when I was hunting, I asked the matchmaker to mention it to the Xie family, Xie said that as long as I can take out a hundred yuan, she will marry her daughter to me, and today I want to ask Zhang Daguan to lend me a hundred yuan ......." ā€

Speaking of this, Pang Wanchun was also a little speechless, he asked someone to borrow money when he first met, looking at Zhang San's face did not change, but his other two followers did look at him with strange expressions. Pang Wanchun knew that he was a little abrupt.

In fact, Shi Wengong and Gongsun Sheng looked at him strangely because Zhang San had joked with them on the way that it was estimated that the first thing Pang Wanchun did when he saw them go must have borrowed money, and then went to the door to propose, and then the Xie family would definitely not agree to increase the price.

Zhang Sanjue's these are all episodes of romance dramas that are rotten, so since the Xie family received fifty taels of silver from the Yang family, and now Pang Wanchun is sent to the door to be slaughtered, how can the Xie family be willing to let it go, the price must be higher than that of the Yang family.

Zhang San has heard and seen too many of this kind of selling women for glory, they never care who their daughter likes, nor who their daughter is happier with, they only care about who can come up with more money.
