Chapter 31: Heavy Reward
Cao Zhizhou listened to it and said, "Oh? Two more to reward? β
Zhao Tixing nodded and said: "One of them is Huang Jie, the nephew of Lord Bo Yao, if he hadn't rescued Wan Siniang from Ma San's hands, there would be no matter of the seven masters of Chilong Village tying up the brothers and sisters of the Wan family." β
Cao Zhizhou nodded hurriedly and said, "Not bad!" This son is clever, and the official likes it when he sees it, and he really deserves to be rewarded! β
Zhao Tixing touched his long beard again, and said with a smile: "This is the second, but he is Huang Jie's senior brother, not to mention that he saved the Wanjia sisters and brothers and Huang Jie from the thieves. said this, I heard that the adult learned of Wang Guinian's treacherous plan, and reprimanded him with righteous words, and this thief did not want to repent, but drew his sword and wanted to harm the adult, if it were not for Huang Jie's senior brother to come forward and capture Wang Guinian, so that his intention to harm the adult did not succeed, it would not be enough to convince the public! β
When Cao Zhizhou heard this, he naturally heard the taste, and suddenly a flower appeared on his face, and he immediately said loudly: "Yes, yes, yes!" Reward! Deserving of the reward! If it weren't for Huang Jie, this case would not have been solved. If it weren't for his senior brother, this official would not have escaped the harm of that thief, come on! Reward! Rewards! β
The scalpers and Gongsun Zheng who were waiting in the side hall, as well as the Wan family sisters and brothers, did not know what was happening in the court, but just waited according to the instructions, if there was anything wrong with Wang Guinian in the court, they needed to be summoned to the court for questioning. But it has been almost an hour since the ascension to the hall, but no one has been summoned, which makes everyone feel a little uneasy.
But soon, a personal scribe of Cao Zhizhou summoned Gongsun Zheng. After another half a moment, Professor Hu, the clerk of his uncle Yao Zheng, walked over with a large tray covered with a red cloth and said, "Happy event! Wedding! The young master of the table also made a great contribution this time, and the Lord Zhizhou rewarded twenty taels of silver, and I heard that the young master of the table will apprentice to the teacher again, and gave a set of pen, ink, paper and inkstone to show his encouragement. β
When Professor Hu walked in, he saw four silver ingots covered with red paper on the tray under the red cloth, and the pen, ink and paper inkstone covered with red paper on the other side, the scalper hurriedly stood up and said, "Where did my senior brother go?" β
Professor Hu smiled and put the tray into the scalper's hand, and said, "The senior brother of the young master of the cousin is meritorious in rescue, and Lord Zhizhou invited him to a banquet!" Come on! The young master has taken the reward, and the second lady has been waiting outside the yamen for a long time! β
"And that's it? But don't let me go through the court? The scalper was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart that this was the end of the trial, and he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it.
Professor Hu hurriedly said what Wang Guinian said in the hall, and said with a smile: "In this way, the trial is over, so naturally don't show the young master to pass the court." It's Wan Xiaoxiao and Wan Xiaoniang, your master Wan also went to the banquet with the adults, and Lord Zhizhou explained, the two of them will go to the adult's house to sleep today, and wait for a while, and someone will arrange it. β
The scalper didn't say anything, so he could only pick up the tray and was about to go out with Professor Hu, but he heard Wan Chunnu behind him shouting: "Huang Lang...... Let's go slowly! β
When the scalper heard this, he stopped and turned his head to look, but saw that Wan Chunnu's cheeks were as red as a monkey's buttocks, and he stepped forward to bow to the scalper, but he reached out and touched it from his head, stuffed an object into the tray, and then covered his face with his hand, turned around and ran out.
"What is this?" The scalper looked at Wan Jinbao, who was also stunned, and then turned his head to look at Professor Hu beside him, and hurriedly uncovered the red cloth on the tray, and saw a red jade bead hairpin placed in the tray.
Wan Jinbao and Professor Hu both came in to take a look, but after Wan Jinbao understood it, he smiled and said: "Brother, this is the heart of the fourth sister of my family, good brother should not let down my sister!" β
Looking at the pearl hairpin on the plate, the scalper said inexplicably: Twenty taels of silver is a heavy reward, and the pearl hairpin is it!
As for Professor Hu smiling and silent, but he was clearly nodding, Wan Jinbao didn't wait for the scalper to answer after speaking, he turned around and chased out, Professor Hu also coughed, and persuaded the scalper to leave quickly, don't let her father and mother wait.
In the confusion, Professor Hu led the scalper out of the mansion, and saw a mule cart parked on the street outside the mansion, with a papier-mΓ’chΓ© lantern with yellow characters written on the mule cart pole, and a woman sitting next to the car was napping against the pole, while an old man was squatting on the street and writing calculations on the ground with a tree branch.
"Daddy! Mother! The scalper holding the tray only felt that his eyes were hot, and the man's tears flowed backwards.
The old man who was squatting on the ground heard the voice, hurriedly stood up, turned his head and looked at it, and said with great joy: "It's a cow!" It's my cow! β
Yao Erniang, who was napping in the car, was also shocked, and jumped out of the car without opening her eyes, and then opened her eyes and shouted, "Where is my son?" Cows! Where's the cow? β
The scalper suppressed the excitement in his heart, hurriedly took a few steps forward, lifted the tray and said to the old man: "Dad! Come and see, this is a reward from Lord Zhizhou, a full twenty taels of silver! β
"Whoa! Good! Seeing his son standing in front of him with all his hands and feet, the old man was so happy that he couldn't speak, thinking that he had disappeared his son in the blink of an eye yesterday afternoon, and thought that his son was greedy for fun and running around, and waited for the official of the government to seal the city gate, and said that after a pair of children of the Wan family were kidnapped again, the old man and Yao Erniang knew that something was wrong.
At that time, Erniang was clamoring to go to Huanghuadang to find her son, but the old man stopped him and went to his uncle to ask for a solution, who knew that his son would return safely after only one day, and it was really unbelievable to think about it.
Yao Erniang on the side finally woke up and dozed off, and when she took two steps, she reached out and touched the scalper, and said urgently: "Is my son injured?" The thief who killed a thousand knives can embarrass my son? β
The scalper was embarrassed by the touch, so he had to turn around and dodge, shouting, "I'm fine, it's okay!" β
This mother-in-law and the old man naturally gossip a lot, and asking back and forth is just how they were tied up, whether they were abused by thieves, and how they escaped. I'm afraid that the story in this will not be finished for a while, but Professor Hu, who sent the scalper out, couldn't stay any longer, and found an opportunity to say: "Second lady, the old man just ordered to come down, saying that the young master has just come back from danger, just in case, it is better to live in the house, the courtyard has already prepared everything, in the afternoon, the lady took the aunts to tidy up again, and tonight the house has also sent ten more archers to take care of it, so let's go over and rest early!" β
"Good! There's Professor Rahu! Yao Erniang listened, and hurriedly suppressed her emotions, reached out and took out a piece of silver from her purse and stuffed it to Professor Hu: "I heard that today is the help of Professor Hu and the doorman uncles, my son was able to enter the city, a little heart, and ask Professor Hu to get some food and uncles, it is windy at night, and it is good to warm up with some wine." β
The scalper looked at it finely, the silver that Erniang stuffed to Professor Hu was clearly a silver judgment of two taels, which was worth almost three dollars, and Professor Hu shirked it twice in a panic, then took it with a smile, and said that he sent a family of three to the house, and then went to call some wine and food and the guards.
