Chapter 051: The East Window Incident (Part II)
Mr. Wang walked in with a leather whip on a wooden plate, and stood respectfully next to Master Jia. Now Young Master Jia saw that his father was going to be tortured, so his lips trembled and he looked at Li Wencai, hoping that Li Wencai, a wise man, could think of a way.
Seeing that Master Jia was going to torture to extract a confession, Li Wencai had no choice but to show his housekeeping skills, only to see two lines of repentant tears squeezed out of the corners of Li Wencai's eyes, his lips twitched twice, and he said with a crying voice: "The villain is willing to admit his guilt, and please punish the master." ”
Young Master Jia was really stunned, what does Brother Cai mean by this, he confessed to the law like this, those canaries are expensive, it is impossible to buy them without a few hundred taels of silver, even if Brother Cai sells himself to Jiafu, it is not worth so much money, and his father's temper is estimated to beat himself and Brother Cai to death before he will give up.
"Dad, you can spare us, we know that we are wrong, and we will not make an example." Young Master Jia saw that Li Wencai had no choice, and it was useless to carry it by himself, so it was better to confess and be lenient.
"What did you do wrong?" Master Jia asked with a cold face.
"Back to the master, we committed the crime of dereliction of duty, in fact, the little one has already found out that Jiafu has entered the thief in the past two days, but he didn't take it seriously, and the result was a big disaster, and the little one should die." Li Wencai was already crying with tears in his eyes, and his appearance was quite pitiful.
Young Master Jia lowered his head, he was ready to be whipped, who knew that it didn't sound right, where did Brother Cai admit his sins, it was obviously a disaster.
"You can see with your own eyes that the thief is in." Seeing that Li Wencai was crying quite sadly, Master Jia was very sincere, and asked with a puzzled face.
"Just two days ago night, the villain went out to pee in the middle of the night, and found a person in black clothes in the garden in the backyard, although it was very dark, the man was wearing a night coat, covering his face, the villain could not see his face clearly, but the villain could conclude that this was not a person in Jiafu, at that time, the villain was scared to pee half and quickly hid behind a rockery with his pants, and after a careful observation, the black clothes went to the residence of several young ladies, the villain could not punch and kick, and he was timid, for fear of causing trouble, so he didn't dare to say this, Now the thief is bold enough to steal the master's canary, and he can't get rid of the little one, and the villain is willing to accept the guilt. ”
Li Wencai told the story carefully, and even Young Master Jia next to him believed that what Li Wencai said was true, and stood up as if a catastrophe was coming, crying and shouting: "Oh no, it's not good, it's all over now, why didn't you say it earlier, I went to the Qinglou two days ago to play, and I stole the two girls' belly pockets and hid them under my pillow, and now eighty percent of them are gone." ”
After Young Master Jia finished speaking, the figure disappeared into the hall in a flash, and the speed was unmatched.
"Son, you bastard, when did you go to the Qinglou again, and you stole the belly pocket of the Qinglou woman and brought it home, I have lost all your old face." Old Man Jia was so angry that he almost didn't spit out a mouthful of old blood, and sat on the Taishi chair in the hall and scolded angrily.
"You have to keep your mouth shut about this son stealing the belly pocket of the Qinglou woman, if it gets out, you know what will happen." Master Jia said with a red face, and then asked Li Wencai: "Wencai, you should have told me about this matter a long time ago, so now what can you do to catch the thief, do you think he will still come to my Jia Mansion to steal?" ”
"As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of thieves, the thief has tasted the sweetness, today he can steal needles and tomorrow he will dare to steal gold, the little one is sure that he will come, the villain is willing to make meritorious contributions to arrest the thief, and promise to arrest the thief within two days to see you."
"Oh, it's not just a casual thing, if you don't get the thief who stole my canary in two days, I'll punish you again."
"The villain has always been a spit and a nail when he talks and acts, and it is a pit when it hits the ground, so don't worry."
Li Wencai said so, what else could Master Jia say, so he stroked his beard and said: "Peng Jingang is the guardian of my Jiafu, but he didn't know that Jiafu was a thief, and the Wang manager went to call Peng Jingang to me, and I want to reprimand him." ”
Mr. Wang went out in response, Li Wencai stood respectfully on the side, the city gate was on fire and affected the pond fish, Li Wencai felt that he was too bad, and he inadvertently led the flames to Peng Huyuan's body, but who made Peng Jingang greedy for money and lustful shameless, he was blackmailed by him when he first entered Jiafu, and now it is also appropriate to give him some color to see, Li Wencai thought about it, and the whole person was in a much better mood.
Peng Jingang's tall and burly figure appeared at the gate of the front hall, only to see Peng Jingang now sweating, trembling walked in and knelt down and said: "The lord is wronged, the villain is loyal and conscientious, and he has never relaxed for half a moment, where are there thieves in our Jiafu?" ”
"Hmph, that's a nice thing to say, my canaries have been roasted and eaten, but you don't know what the old man wants you to do, and now Wen Cai has seen thieves walking around in the backyard of Jiafu with his own eyes, what do you say you usually do, does the old man raise a group of pigs?"
Peng Jingang was reprimanded and lowered his head and didn't dare to speak again, things in this world are difficult to say, when he was shot while lying down, not to mention that he was still standing, so Peng Jingang had to admit it.
"That's it, Wen Cai has already pleaded guilty just now, but Wen Cai is not bad, and he is willing to make meritorious contributions, so this time let Li Wencai temporarily take over the position of the nursing home, and the family members in Jia Mansion who are responsible for patrolling and watching the courtyard will be temporarily handed over to Wencai to manage, and Peng Nursing Yuan will also assist Li Wencai well and give me the thief as soon as possible, otherwise you two don't want to escape punishment." Master Jia made the final decision.
Peng Jingang felt a grievance in his heart, Li Wencai had only been riding on his head for a few days after he came to Jiafu, and this person loved to pretend to be forced, if he worked under him, he would not have to look at his face all day long, but Peng Jingang couldn't say anything.
Thirty years in the east of the river, thirty years in the west of the river. Li Wencai was very happy in his heart, after he came to Jiafu, he was proud, and his status soared, and the dignified Jiafu Peng Nursing Home now has to look at his face, the right thing is really deadly, Ben Shao originally wanted to keep a low profile, but now he suddenly became the head of a group of thugs, and he can't do it without pretending to be forced, when he has nothing to do, he will take a group of little brothers to wander around in Jiafu casually, and if he sees which little girl is so smart, he will let the little brothers catch him, and he will have a good time, and then he will go to the street outside. Behind him is a group of little brothers wearing sunglasses, wearing black leather clothes, and holding an ax in their hands, damn it, whoever doesn't accept it will cut him.
Li Wencai stood aside, already imagining the scene of his rampant and domineering in his mind, and unconsciously showed an evil smile.
"Wencai, you are smiling very obscenely, the old man has something to ask you?" Master Jia squinted his eyes, looked at Li Wencai's spontaneous laughter like an idiot, and asked very puzzled.
Li Wencai immediately changed his expression, and said solemnly: "If the master has anything to ask, the little one knows everything when he hears it." ”
"The old man's third daughter Qiu Xiang is often absent from the boudoir these days, and the old man suspects that she may have a secret relationship with the scholar surnamed Tang, how much do you know about this?" Master Jia stared at Li Wencai like an old fox and asked.
Li Wencai was shocked, Master Jia is not simple, this question is very meaningful, does he already suspect that he is the dog leg sent by Tang Caizi, Li Wencai rolled his eyes and said: "Back to the master, the villain actually feels that Qiu Xiang is abnormal, I didn't expect to be bewitched by the old man surnamed Tang, I heard that this old guy surnamed Tang specializes in seducing simple girls, and there are many girls who have been poisoned by him, the villain hates such a lewd thief to the core, the master can rest assured, if you let the little one see that guy, it will definitely be a fight once." ”
Master Jia nodded, didn't say anything more, and waved his hand to signal them to retreat.
Li Wencai and Peng Jingang came out of the hall, and immediately felt a lot more relaxed, Li Wencai ignored Peng Jingang at all, with his hands behind his back, his nostrils facing the sky, and he was proud like a big rooster. He is now the chief manager of the nursing home and the captain of the inspection team, so Li Wencai hung his throat and said to the sky: "Lao Peng, my new official has taken office, as my left hand and right arm, you have to behave well." ”
Peng Jingang glanced at Li Wencai behind his back, and said in his heart Look at the appearance of your villain, damn it, I don't know and think that you are talking to the birds in the sky, but Li Wencai is now a powerful villain, Peng Jingang followed Li Wencai and said: "What Brother Wencai said is that I will definitely do things well." ”
Li Wencai looked at Peng Jingang with disdain, hooked his finger at Peng Jingang and said: "I said old Peng, why are you so unreasonable, I am a new official, don't you have anything to say?" ”
"Well, the little one forgot about it." Peng Jingang said, bowed his head and took out the silver in his arms, with a bitter expression on his face, the villain really couldn't afford to offend.
Peng Jingang took out a long time, took out more than a dozen copper plates, respectfully handed them to Li Wencai, and said, "It's a little meaning, and I ask Brother Wencai to laugh." ”
"It's called Huazi, you're really stingy on this point, when I gave you silver, it was a big ingot of silver, you take a few copper plates and don't you know it."
The expression on Peng Jingang's face was even more ugly, and he couldn't pretend to be so bottomless, how could he give money and look at his face.
Li Wencai was very disgusted and snatched more than a dozen copper plates from Peng Jingang's hand, counted them carefully and stuffed them into his arms, and then walked forward with square steps, and said in his mouth: "Old Peng, gather all the brothers who are watching the yard at night, and say that I want to hold a mobilization meeting." ”
Peng Jingang pursed his lips, this Li Wencai is too capable of pretending, isn't it just a temporary acting nurse, if this thing is made a county master, it is estimated that his eyes will grow to the top of his head, and the people will not be alive.
