Chapter 52: Mr. Wu's Hatred Lingers

When Xu Si'er woke up, it was already the beginning of the second day. He rubbed the headache caused by the hangover, sat on the bed and was stunned, thinking that he had met a catcher from Anlu Mansion yesterday, and then talked a lot, and then he didn't remember what happened. So, he shook his head and didn't think about it anymore, and prepared to get up and wash his face and go to the county office to check the situation, and by the way, he went to count the money paid by the shops collected by his subordinates. When he reached the door, he suddenly realized that something was wrong. "That Anlu Mansion's arrest is not the only thing that came to investigate Li, right? It's not good, how can you forget that there is still an ancestor to offer! Thinking of this, he patted his head vigorously, quickly returned to the room and wrote a note in his pocket, and then hurried to the place where the county government posted the notice. Looking left and right at no one, Xu Si'er opened the lower half of the sea fishing document and pasted the note behind, revealing only a line of small characters, and then entered the yamen. The portrait of the bearded Jiangyang thief has been a little mottled by the wind and sun, and only the seal of the prefect of Anlu Mansion is still bright red.

This morning, Xu Anping was ready to take leave and go back to Yujia Village to have a look. After surviving the painful stage of Father Yu's death, he no longer thought about returning to Yujia Village directly to accompany Yi Lian'er, but was ready to make some money to take Aunt Yu and her sisters out to live. Now that he has been away from home for more than a month, he really misses Yi Lian'er very much. Thinking of this, he sighed, "Alas, Daddy Yu has been dead for a while, and I don't know if Lady Yu is better." The clues of the Blood Hand Alliance have been cut off for the time being, and it seems that they will have to go out after a while. He said hello to Miss Deng, and walked out of the side door of Deng's house with the frame on his back, and walked in the direction of the county government without taking a few steps. Because he was going to leave the Deng family for a few days, Xu Anping still wanted to see if there was any news from Xu Si'er from the county government. After all, Li's only matter has not been completely resolved, and the fateful account book is still in his hands. He pretended to wander to the side of the county government office unintentionally, and his footsteps did not stop, but he just looked at the sea fishing document pasted with a slightly sideways face, and his pupils shrank when he landed, and three small characters like ghost drawings came into view: "Uninhabited land." After confirming that he was not mistaken, Xu Anping walked into the uninhabited alley next to him as if nothing happened, changed his appearance and went to the restaurant, booked a box with the name of Drunken Immortal Residence, and waited for Xu Si'er to come over.

Before the time came, Xiao Er in the restaurant was greeting the guests, and the noisy greetings came and went. At this time, the shopkeeper's courteous voice came from outside the room: "Fourth master, why are you free to come over at noon today?" You have a lot of affairs, just say hello if you want to eat, and I'll let Xiao Er send it over. "Shopkeeper, how can you drink and eat in the yamen and be comfortable in the drunken immortal house, hahaha." "Yes, yes, Xiao Lao'er has always kept the Tianzi box for you, please hurry up. Xiao Er, quickly bring the dishes that the fourth master likes to eat, don't delay the fourth master to drink. "Slow, today the gentlemen are going to have dinner in the private room of the local brand, and the fortune teller said that I will get out of the soil today." Go ahead and arrange it! "Fourth master, there are already guests in the private room, do you see if you can ......" "Someone?" Let me go over and say a few words to him, if you don't let me, hehehehe......" Xu Si'er pushed the shopkeeper aside, kicked the door directly into the room and closed the door, and then slammed the waist knife on the table, frightening the shopkeeper and Xiao Eryi outside the door, and could only hope that the guests inside would not be killed.

Xu Si'er saw that there was a person in the private room standing in front of the window with his back to him, and hurriedly hunched his waist and said cautiously: "Master, you asked me to pay attention to the matter of the Deng family last time, and the villain has always kept it in mind. Yesterday, an Anlu Mansion came to the county to inquire about the fire in the Yamen, and later asked about the Deng family and the Tian family. He first took himself out, so as not to suffer an unwarranted disaster, and after speaking, he secretly looked up at the other party's movements, and hurriedly lowered his head. This kind of scene is fortunately not seen by the shopkeeper outside and Xiao Er, otherwise they would definitely be unable to help but take off their eyeballs, this is still the fourth master Xu who is the first king of heaven and the second grandfather of me on weekdays!

After Xu Anping heard this, he guessed that it might be sent by the prefect to look for the account books, and he knew that he should have come or came, but he was not too surprised. "Well, do you know where he lives?"

Xu Si'er's eyes rolled, and he hurriedly said: "I don't know the little one, but I heard that the official of the county government said that the person is familiar with Xu Bai of the beggar gang, it should not be difficult to find out." After two hours, the villain will check the results. ”

"I want to know the results before dark." After speaking, he turned around and saw Xu Si'er honestly looking down at the ground, Xu Anping was about to open the door and go out.

Xu Si'er is also a clever person, he grabbed his waist knife and smashed it on the table, and said viciously: "Do you know who the master is?" Lao Tzu is Xu Sier, the head catcher of Qingping County. If you still want to eat, you may not be able to eat tomorrow's breakfast. ”

Xu Anping cooperated and bent down to open the door and leave, nodding his head incessantly. The shopkeeper and Xiao Er also breathed a sigh of relief, offending an ordinary guest is much lighter than offending Xu Siye, fortunately, no one was killed.

Speaking of which, after Xu Si'er got drunk last night, Nie Wuchang was ready to leave after seeing that he couldn't ask anything anymore. When he opened the door, he saw the leader of the beggar gang who called himself Wu Bai standing not far away, his eyes seemed to be on fire, so he secretly raised his guard.

As soon as he approached, Wu Bai couldn't wait to ask, "Brother Tai has a grudge against the Deng family?" ”

Nie Wuchang's eyes froze, staring at the other party like a steel knife out of its sheath. If it weren't for the crowded restaurant, he would have killed Wu Bai as soon as possible. The matter explained by the prefect is extremely secret, and there is no room for error.

Wu Bai's face turned pale with fright, knowing that the other party should be hostile because of a misunderstanding, so he hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand to explain: "Brother Tai, don't misunderstand." Just now, I overheard my brother Tai asking about the Deng family, and I happened to have an enmity with the Deng family, so I hoped that I could use my strength to destroy the Deng family, so I asked this question. If there is anything needed, just ask. Wu Bai remembered his recent experience, and it was really bitter and tearful. He was originally a noble gentleman in the Tian family, and when he was fine, he shook the paper fan to give the young master Tian an idea, and he could take a lot of money without doing anything. Who knew that when he returned home to visit relatives, he came back to find that the Tian family was gone, Tian Huaying's father and son were arrested, and even he became a fugitive with the case. In desperation, he had to fall into the beggar gang and settle down temporarily, relying on his ingenuity to convince a few broken households to become small leaders. But I'm a reader! Although he has tried and failed, he is still a child, and now the dignity of a scholar has been tossed by himself. He has this hatred in his heart, and now he doesn't want to take revenge on the Deng family all the time. If it weren't for the fact that the Deng family didn't know each other and rejected Young Master Tian's proposal, Tian Huaying would not have made such a decision to have a conflict with the county magistrate, let alone a series of events that eventually led to the destruction of the family. Thinking of this, Wu Bai's eyes turned a little red, to paraphrase an old saying: That's really endless hatred!

Nie Wuchang saw that Wu Bai's face was full of hatred, and he seemed to be about to cry when he saw that his eyes were red, and then he thought that he also needed a helper in Qingping County, so he said: "Well, since you have a grudge against the Deng family, you can be regarded as a fellow traveler." In the past few days, you have sent people to watch around Deng's house day and night, and if you find anything abnormal, tell me immediately. After giving the order, he himself prepared to go to Deng Ji Silk Village to see the situation.
