Chen Song's wife, Yu Shi, is the daughter of the old shopkeeper upstairs in Yonghe. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

After the Chen family had an accident, the shopkeeper rushed to Chenzhou and took Chen Song to Chang'an. When Chen Song became an adult, the shopkeeper married his daughter to Chen Song, and handed over Yonghe Building to Chen Song and his wife. After the death of the shopkeeper, Chen Song and his wife were very affectionate and jointly operated Yonghe Building.

Chen Song and his wife did not worry about food and clothing in Chang'an, but they were not without worries, both of them had passed the age of confusion, but there was no man and half woman, which became a heart disease of the Yu family. The Yu family has repeatedly proposed to let Chen Song take a concubine, so as to continue the incense for the Chen family. But Chen Song was grateful for the kindness of the old shopkeeper, and felt that the concubine did not live in the Yu family, so he never did it.

Chen Song is not indiscriminately complimenting, Yu followed the shopkeeper Yu to make a good dish, and after marrying Chen Song, he will no longer show it. Today, Yu Shi saw that Chen Song was so happy, and he didn't hide his secrets, so he took out all the skills at the bottom of the box and let Zhang Baoer eat it beautifully. The young man who came with Zhang Baoer was also stained, and he could barely straighten his waist after eating.

After eating, Zhang Baoer said goodbye to Chen Song and his wife, and Chen Song sent the two outside the door.

"Have you seen Master Wu again after Shopkeeper Chen returned to Chang'an?" Zhang Baoer asked as she walked.

"When I met a few years ago, I also said hello, and he also mentioned you, I haven't seen you again these days!" Speaking of this, Chen Song asked, "Do you want to see Wu Gongzi?" I forgot to ask where he lives last time, if you want to see him, I can help you inquire! ”

"Oh! No more! Zhang Bao'er hurriedly said: "Shopkeeper Chen, if you see him, don't say that I came to Chang'an!" ”

"Why is that?" Chen Song was surprised.

"I want to go on my own adventure, and then visit Wu Gongzi when I get out of the Roll Call!" Zhang Baoer explained: "If it weren't for the coincidence today, I wouldn't want to disturb Shopkeeper Chen!" ”

Chen Song waved his hand and said, "Brother Zhang, as soon as I saw you, I felt that we were destined. You're right, it's a good thing for young people to practice more. However, since we have also met, you don't have to be polite, you can make this your home in the future, and you can come at any time, at least you can have a tooth sacrifice! ”

Chen Song said sincerely, without any pretentiousness, and Zhang Baoer was also very moved.

Leaving Chen Song's house, Zhang Baoer looked at the young man with a smile, patted him on the shoulder and said, "You can't do anything at a young age, you have to do it." Speaking of which, it can be regarded as a fate between the two of us, listen to my advice, stop it, if you lose your hand one day, you will regret it if your leg is discounted! ”

"It's better to say than to sing! If there is another way, who wants to do this? The young man gritted his teeth and glared at Zhang Bao'er: "You can kill me!" ”

Zhang Bao'er said strangely: "I persuaded you to change your career for your own good, why did you kill you?" ”

"The other day, I was sick and stayed at home. finally recovered from the illness and came out to make a living, who knew that I met you as a broom star for three days in a row. Tomorrow is the last day to pay the money, but I am empty-handed, and I am not going to peel off my skin, and you are not killing me. ”

Zhang Baoer understood.

Chang'an, like Chenzhou, has a boss in each street, and the people under the boss have to pay tribute to the boss every month. Not only Chenzhou and Chang'an, it is estimated that it is the same everywhere in the world.

The reason why the young man made frequent moves turned out to be that he was eager to make up the money of the filial piety leader, and he blocked his financial path three times in a row, no wonder the young man was in a hurry with him.

Looking at the young man's pitiful appearance, Zhang Baoer asked, "What's your name and how much money do you have to pay every month?" ”

"My name is Li Si, and I have to pay five taels of silver every month!"

"Five taels of silver?" Zhang Bao'er's eyes widened: "So many? ”

When they were in Chenzhou, Zhang Baoer and Lao Zhaohua only paid 500 yuan a month, of course, because of Chang Kun Renyi. In exchange for the other leaders of Chenzhou Chenghuang, the two of them have to pay one or two pieces of silver, which is already a lot. Unexpectedly, a thief in Lisi in Chang'an City would have to pay five taels of silver a month, which is too dark.

Li Siyi pouted and said: "I'm still a little, among the other people in the workshop, who can't pay ten taels or twenty taels, and at most pay fifty C!" ”

Listening to Li Si's words, Zhang Baoer was completely speechless.

I thought that Chang'an was at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and the law and order should be much better, but who knew that it was such a scene.

Zhang Bao'er said indignantly: "These bosses are so bold, no one will sue them?" Doesn't the government care? ”

"You are from out of town, and you don't know how deep the water in Chang'an is." Li Si showed a look of disdain: "Most of the money collected by the leaders was given to the old men of the government, and the government received the silver, of course, they turned a blind eye." If someone goes to sue, these officials will also settle the matter for the leaders, and in the end, it is the person who is unlucky to complain! ”

Zhang Bao'er thought for a moment and said to Li Si: "That's it, I'll pay for your money!" ”

"You're coming out?" Li Si looked Zhang Baoer up and down: "Can you afford it?" ”

"If you don't believe it, forget it, if you believe it, follow me!" Zhang Baoer dropped a sentence and walked away.

Li Si hesitated for a moment, but still followed.

Coming to the door of Tiantong Casino, Zhang Baoer stopped.

Li Si grabbed Zhang Bao'er and said in surprise: "You won't come here to gamble, right?" ”

"Of course, going to the gambling house is gambling money, is it because you can't drink tea?" Zhang Bao'er glanced at Li Si.

Li Si was surprised: "You are really bold enough, do you know who opened this gambling house?" ”

"I'm here to gamble, whoever opened it?" Zhang Baoer said disapprovingly.

"This is a gambling house run by Mr. Wei, behind him is Princess Taiping, who dares to come here to gamble money, if you want to gamble, you will go to Yefang to gamble!"

Mr. Wei?

Princess Taiping?

Zhang Bao'er's heart moved: "This Mr. Wei you are talking about is called Wei Xianyun?" ”

Li Si hurriedly covered Zhang Bao'er's mouth: "You don't want to live anymore, there are a few people in Chang'an who dare to call Mr. Wei's name!" ”

It seems that it is right, the person behind this gambling house is the same Mr. Wei that Zhang Baoer met in Chenzhou City a year ago.

Zhang Bao'er asked again: "What do you mean by Yefang?" ”

"In Chang'an City, the people who can open gambling houses are all people with backstage, and even the government doesn't dare to mess with them, and those who go in and out of it are also rich people. People like us can only go to the grass platform gambling houses set up by the leaders of each square if they want to gamble for money. These gambling houses have not been filed with the government, so they are called Yefang. ”

"Whatever, it's already here anyway, let's go in and talk about it!" Seeing that Li Si stopped moving, Zhang Baoer said again: "If you still want to pay the money, then come along." If you don't have the guts, then please take care of yourself! ”

After that, Zhang Baoer ignored Li Si anymore and went straight into the gambling house.

Looking at Zhang Baoer's back, Li Si gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and followed in.
