"Oh... Yawn..."

Guo Ye rubbed his eyes and yawned as he followed Cheng Erniu down the street to Yamen.

What time is it?

The sky is just a little bright, the pedestrians on the road are like kittens and two, and occasionally there are vendors who rush to the morning market to pass by, and from time to time they greet the two, opening and closing their mouths are all grandfather morning.

Can small merchants and hawkers not respect Cheng Erniu and Guo Ye?

You must know that like Guo Ye, their soap class is in charge of maintaining market order, collecting grain and paying taxes, and often deals with these small traders.

On the first day of Guo Yegang's tenure, he was a little unaccustomed to the humility of these people, and he did not hesitate to wave his hand, but Cheng Erniu, a fool, had already seen it and accepted it calmly with his head held high and his chest held high.

After walking a long distance, Guo Ye couldn't help but think of what Cheng Erniu said just now to take him to a good place, what kind of place is worthy of Cheng Erniu's praise so much.

Then he asked, "I said Erniu, where are you going to take me?" ”

Cheng Erniu smiled mysteriously and said softly: "Don't ask, you'll know when you arrive." ”

After speaking, he ignored Guo Ye and continued to lead the way.

But just smiling at him just now, Guo Ye saw the lewdness between the eyebrows of Cheng Erniu, and his heart suddenly burst, is this kid going to take me to a brothel?

But this idea disappeared in a flash, this is not reliable, which brothel of Qinglou opened early in the morning.

Just when he was secretly speculating, Cheng Erniu in front of him suddenly stopped and shouted: "It's here, it's here!" ”

As he spoke, he pointed with his right hand to a small shop ten meters away from the two of them.

Guo Ye had a good eye, and took a closer look at a signboard made of coarse cloth hung with a bamboo pole at the entrance of the shop, fluttering in the wind, and the five big characters of "Zhenniang Douhua Shop" were written vertically.

At first glance, Guo Ye really wanted to raise his middle finger to greet Cheng Erniu's family, your sister, you chattered early in the morning, why did Lao Tzu think it was a big deal, it turned out to be this?

Isn't it just a company that sells tofu brains? Are you a kid?

Just when he wanted to step forward to accuse Cheng Erniu of being frightened and tricky, Guo Ye's face suddenly froze, his eyes staring at the Douhua shop without blinking, and his eyes were already straight.

A woman suddenly appeared in the store, without a little powder, without shaking the jade pendant, and was busy back and forth with a trace of fatigue in the plain face.

Suddenly, a poem suddenly popped out of Guo Ye's mind:

Clear water out of hibiscus, natural carving.

"Ahem......"

Cheng Erniu coughed lightly, deliberately woke up Guo Ye, who was distracted, looked at Guo Ye with playful eyes, grinned, and was evil.

Guo Ye immediately woke up and glanced at Cheng Erniu, it turned out that this kid didn't hold back his fart early in the morning, and this fart was angry.

It's fake to come here to eat bean curd, but it's real to see beautiful women.

Cheng Erniu dragged Guo Ye forward, found an empty table at the door of the bean curd shop and sat down, and then shouted into the bean curd shop: "Zhen Niang, come to two bowls of bean curd." ”

There was a voice from inside that sounded unusually glutinous to Guo Ye's ears, and even his bones were numb, and he said, "I know, the two grandfathers will wait a while." ”

Tsk, Guo Ye and Cheng Erniu sat opposite each other, and couldn't help but praise in their hearts, this voice is really tired of life, dare to love the beautiful woman who flashed by just now is the proprietress of this bean flower shop.

After a while, Zhen Niang combed Chanjuan's cloud sideburns, wore a green cloth placket with wide sleeves, a purple skirt, and wrapped a thin waist like a water snake and curled out of the bean flower shop.

Stepping on small broken steps, he came to Guo Ye's table with a bowl of bean curd in his left and right hands, and said softly: "Two grandfathers, please use it slowly." ”

At the moment when she leaned over and put the bean curd on the table, Guo Ye could be regarded as having a close observation with this beautiful bean curd shop proprietor.

Her hair is as black as ink, her willow eyebrows, goose egg face, her cheeks are slightly red, her fair cheeks are dripping with sweat, and she exhales like a blue heart.

Guo Ye secretly made a comparison between Zhenniang and Wu Xiuxiu, Wu Xiuxiu is lonely and arrogant, in terms of appearance, this Zhenniang is slightly inferior to Wu Xiuxiu, and she does not have that feeling of beauty and refinement.

However, Zhen Niang also has things that Wu Xiuxiu does not have, the charm between her eyebrows, and the touching spirit between her eyes, which is by no means comparable to Wu Xiuxiu.

Guo Ye's eyes moved with Zhen Niang's movements, and he blurted out softly: "What a young woman from a good family who tickles people's hearts!" ”

Zhen Niang had already entered the store and couldn't hear Guo Ye's soft praise, but Cheng Erniu, who was at the same table, was not deaf and heard Guo Ye's words clearly.

Then he laughed twice and said, "How is it, Brother Guo?" I didn't bring the wrong place. Zhen Niang is a well-known tofu Shih Tzu in our Longxi County, and she looks so beautiful. Her real name is Yang Wanzhen, and she married from other places to our Longxi County a few years ago and opened this bean flower shop to make a living. Douhua has good craftsmanship and beautiful people, so, hehe, business has been good. ”

It turns out that her name is Yang Wanzhen, Guo Ye kept it in his heart, a good name.

Cheng Erniu took the spoon and pulled the bean curd in the bowl, shook his head and sighed: "Zhenniang, this woman is really good, a little weak woman supports a family, and although she is famous, she has never had any romantic affairs, but it is a pity that ......"

Listening to Cheng Erniu's sigh, Guo Ye stopped the small spoon in his hand, glanced at Cheng Erniu suspiciously, and asked, "What is a pity?" ”

Cheng Erniu just wanted to probe over and say something, when suddenly there was another shout outside the bean flower shop.

"Zhen Niang, Zhen Niang, quickly bring some silver to Lao Tzu."

As soon as the voice arrived, a thin man in gray broke into the bean flower shop, followed by two men in strong suits.

Guo Ye took a closer look at the gray-clothed man who broke into the store, his face was unkempt and haggard, the bags under his eyes were thick and black, and the corners of his eyes had not been cleared.

Immediately afterwards, I heard the sound of pong pong rummaging through boxes and cabinets, mixed with dry howls from time to time: "Where is the silver? Hurry up and get some silver for Lao Tzu, I lost to Lao Tzu last night. ”

Zhen Niang's voice sounded at the right time, no longer the sticky sound just now, more frightened and helpless, and said: "It just opened this morning, where did you get the silver?" Didn't you take all the money from your house yesterday? ”

Then there was another round of insults and the cacophony of rummaging through the cabinets.

Guo Ye frowned, and Cheng Erniu took the opportunity to explain: "This is a pity for me, this man is Zhenniang's husband, called Hu Pi." Hu Pi is a well-known scoundrel in the county, and he is a bastard who eats, drinks, prostitutes, gambles, and occupies everything, but it's a pity that Zhen Niang is such a virtuous woman, no matter how she can manage the family business, she can't help the scourge of this Hu Pi, this bastard. ”

Guo Ye looked at the bearded skin in the bean curd shop and jumped with chickens and dogs, listening to Zhenniang's frightened shouts, he couldn't help but feel slightly sour in his heart, how could such a woman marry such a bastard.

Cheng Erniu smacked the two men in strong suits beside Hu Pi with his mouth, and said: "These two people must be the gangsters of Daxing Casino, Hu Pi, this kid lost his eyes again last night, borrowed the money from the gambling house and lost all his money, and was escorted back to get the silver early this morning." ”

Guo Ye glanced at the two men who followed behind Hu Pi silently without saying a word, and said in his heart, isn't it the casino that lends usury?

Syllable!

A crisp sound interrupted Guo Ye and Cheng Erniu's conversation.

Guo Ye and Cheng Erniu looked at the bean flower shop again, only to see Hu Piyang slapping Zhen Niang, while Zhen Niang was squatting on the ground with her cheeks covered and choking, crying so much that her liver and intestines were broken.

After Hu Pi slapped him, he hurriedly jumped to his feet and scolded: "You open the door every day to do business, why will you have no money?" Don't hide it, quickly take out the silver for Lao Tzu. ”

Then he smiled at the two men behind him: "Don't worry, don't worry, this woman must have silver, I will beat her to hand over all the silver." ”

The two men stared at Hu Pi with their eyes and continued to speak, but snorted coldly to reply to the dissatisfaction in their hearts.

Hu Pi continued to scold and continue to persecute Zhenniang, just asking for silver.

Zhen Niang squatted on the ground and cried breathlessly, and she couldn't take out a penny.

Hu Pi was annoyed and angry, and raised his right hand high to fight Zhen Niang again.

At this moment, Guo Ye couldn't sit still anymore, paralyzed, this is also called a man? your eight-generation ancestors.

Bang!

Guo Ye took the case, not only frightened Cheng Erniu, who was eating bean curd on the other side, but also frightened Hu Pi and the two gambling house thugs, taking advantage of the opportunity for everyone to turn their eyes over, Guo Ye shouted angrily: "Stop!" ”

Then he walked out of his seat and entered the store, and said coldly to Hu Pi: "Hu Pi, if you dare to do it again, believe it or not, Lao Tzu will directly let you go in prison to eat?" ”

Belch......

Hu Pi looked at Guo Ye in public uniform, and couldn't help but feel guilty.

This provokes no one to provoke the people in the government, Guo Ye really believes what he said, he is already famous outside Erli Street, and people casually accuse themselves of going in directly.

But the two people in the gambling house behind are not good at stubble, if it is not for the money owed to the gambling house today, it is estimated that it will be another beating.

The methods of these people in the gambling house, how can he not be clear about the methods of these people in the gambling house?

So he pleaded with Guo Ye and said, "This grandfather, don't you have to take care of this matter with your noble hand?" And Zhenniang is my wife, I ask her for silver, I beat her, that is also a matter of course, not to violate the royal law. ”

As soon as Hu Pi's words came out, he almost didn't make Guo Ye's nose crooked.

You damn, what bullshit is natural, it won't work here in Lao Tzu, it really gives you a face, paralyzed.

So he raised his right hand at Hu Pi, slapped left and right, and shouted: "According to what you say, Lao Tzu is a tolerance, and it is not illegal to beat you?" ”

Guo Ye shot hard enough, and directly hit Hu Pi's cheeks high and swollen, his eyes were full of stars, and he almost didn't stand still.

The two men who had been silent next to him saw Guo Ye, Cheng Biting Jin, who had been killed halfway, and inserted a beam horizontally, and they couldn't help but feel unhappy, but because of Guo Ye's identity as a public servant, they didn't dare to question loudly.

Instead, he said in a stiff tone: "This grandfather, this Hu Pi owes us the silver of the Daxing Gambling House, and it is natural to repay the debt, so it is not kind for you to do this." ”

Guo Ye didn't have a good impression of these bastards who were used to killing people, setting fires, splashing paint, and lending usury, so he didn't even look at the two of them, and snorted coldly: "What's the matter? When did the imperial court enact a statute allowing gambling houses to lend money? I really have to go back to the yamen and ask the county lieutenant. ”

The meaning of these words is to tell these two thugs that this Liang Zi is set up by Guo Ye.

Looking at the virgin mother who was squatting on the ground and trembling like a frightened fawn, Guo Ye was even more determined to help this weak woman.

As soon as they heard Guo Ye's words, the two men knew that there were some twists and turns in today's matter, and then asked again: "Grandpa, is this trying to take care of this matter for Hu Pi?" ”

Guo Ye ignored the questioning, but waved his hand in disgust at the two of them, and expelled: "Tell you the boss of the Daxing gambling house, it is better to do less things that have lost your conscience, otherwise you will be blessed." ”

As soon as the two men heard that Guo Ye had spoken to such an extent, how could they not know that this matter had changed its flavor today.

However, he still didn't give up, and wanted to say a few words to Guo Ye, although he didn't dare to offend a person like Guo Ye, but he didn't have no backers in the gambling house, and he was not so easy to provoke.

Before the words came out, there was another banging sound.

After eating the bean curd, Cheng Erniu smashed his fist on the table, directly hammered the table into a big hole, and then shouted at the two men in a loud voice: "What are you doing here?" Do you really want to eat the iron fist of the master, and you can't think of spending the night in the class room? ”

The two men glanced at each other, Cheng Erniu, a bastard who is notorious, can even a tiger be a good thing?

Immediately, the hero did not eat the loss in front of him, turned away in a gloomy manner, and glared at Hu Pi when he turned around, and the threat suddenly appeared.

Hu Pi saw Guo Ye inserting a beam sideways and helping him out of the siege, but when he thought of the eyes of the two Daxing gambling house thugs when they left, his heart was filled with emptiness again.

Guo Ye looked at the poor Zhenniang who was squatting on the ground, and couldn't help but feel pity in his heart, and wanted to step forward to help her up and comfort her.

Who knew that Cheng Erniu outside suddenly ran in, as if he had thought of something, and sighed helplessly at Guo Ye: "Brother Guo, I suddenly remembered something just now, it seems that you are in trouble again." ”
