Chapter Ninety-Eight: Who Is the Scoundrel? (2nd Update)
Wang Fulin, who was so hot that he only inhaled cold air, could not care about answering, turned the hot thing in his mouth and hurriedly lowered his stomach, and then came back to his senses. He put down the bowl in his hand, glanced at Ye Mingyue, and thought that when she said this, she undoubtedly simply admitted that when he and Zhao Wuye went in to see Ye Junyao, she hid behind the screen, and he suddenly stared at people for a long time.
This is very rude, but anyway, it is not reasonable for Ye Mingyue to be alone with him in the kitchen like this, and he is not the kind of good man in ancient times who abides by etiquette in his bones.
Zhang Min, the secretary of the torture room, is not a vegetarian, he can see it, but those old criminals can't see it? It's better to take advantage of Ye Mingyue's presence to shake things out.
"Miss Ye, I have been reading sage books since I was a child, but I also like to read the reading notes of literati in previous dynasties, so my second sister was deceived by the old liar who took a few books and lost her defense, she just wanted to send me a few books. I don't remember reading it from a book where the hanged man would not struggle to the death, so there would be no other marks on his neck except for the hanging. But the old liar who was suspected of hanging himself for fear of guilt still had blood stains on the edges of his fingernails, and he didn't know what he had caught. ”
He paused for a moment, then continued: "If someone else is caught, then it goes without saying, of course, there is another murderer; If you grab something that strangles your neck, then there will be obvious scratches on your neck, then it also proves that there is still a murderer, otherwise why grab something that strangles your neck? Zhao Bantou didn't want to make trouble, and I didn't say it just now, because I knew that Ye Xianzun was in a hurry to establish his authority. After all. There is no need to track down suicide, but murder has to alarm the prefect's yamen and even guard the road separately, and there is no other evidence and traces found at the scene before, but the door is not locked, so I have to be silent. ”
Ye Mingyue is a girl who has not yet had time to wait for the word boudoir. Hearing that such a case might not be a suicide, but a homicide, she only felt as if her heart was clenched violently. At her age, her family is rich and solid, and she only knows that human life is as big as the sky, but she never thought that a human life would be lost like this. She couldn't help biting her lip. It took a long time for a sentence to burst out.
"Then you really don't want to pursue it?"
Wang Fulin also thought that when it came to his biological father, the county daughter beside him would definitely stop asking no more questions, but at this moment, when he heard this answer that was completely different from what he imagined, he couldn't help but laugh a little when he saw her teeth as if she was about to bite her lip to bleed. raised his eyebrows and said, "An old liar who has harmed many innocent people, does Miss Ye want to clear his name?" ”
"It's not a pity that old thing dies!" Ye Mingyue blurted out, then hesitated for a while, and then simply said straight to the point, "I think that the person who killed him may be a killer, and if he doesn't kill him, he is also ill-intentioned, maybe he will harm people in the future!" Again...... I just saw you like that in front of your father, and I was obviously not satisfied with the intention of giving up. But very unwilling! ”
Was my expression so obvious at that time? And it was actually shown to a little girl?
The corners of Wang Fulin's mouth twitched, thinking that it was really a good feast, and even a bowl of small wontons could be eaten. Thereupon. He ignored the county daughter beside him first, and ate the rest of the small wontons in one go, but fortunately, after this delay, the things were already cold, and the entrance was just warm. When the bowl was put down, he stood up. Only then did he arch his hand to Ye Mingyue and said, "Anyway, Miss Ye doesn't care about this matter, Ye Xianzun has the grace of knowing me." Of course, I wouldn't really leave such a big flaw alone. I'm going to take my leave today. ”
Wait until you get to the kitchen door. He suddenly remembered one of the most important things. Although he still had a silver ticket of one hundred taels in his arms and didn't redeem it, his family still owed a lot of debts, and he had to pay the rent, otherwise it would be too much of a loss! So, he turned around and said to Ye Mingyue with a smile: "By the way, there is something I forgot to say just now, and I asked Miss Ye to give a message to the county honor." I hope that the process of returning the stolen goods can be faster, after all, my family was cheated by the scammer before, and the money paid to the bitter master was still paid out with the help of the second master Wang, but now I am still brazenly living in the house he borrowed. ”
Ye Mingyue Bingxue was smart, and she understood as soon as she heard this. But most of the scholars in this world are ashamed of their words, let alone settle accounts so clearly, plus Wang Fulin just had a tough attitude and asked him to leave it alone, but now he let himself talk to his father, she simply didn't hear it, and stood there silent. However, she soon discovered that she underestimated Wang Xiaoxiucai's "straightforwardness".
"Don't hide it from Miss Ye that the reason why my father has been in business for many years and doesn't come back even if he is sick is because he once lost a debt of 7,000 taels, and it was Mr. Nanming and Second Master Wang who filled the hole for him. Although I don't work harder than Master Li, I still do some things in a down-to-earth manner, and I ask the county to think more about it and make up for my family's livelihood. ”
Wang Fulin only knew about his own financial crisis after listening to Wang Daoguan's words, but there is no impermeable wall in the world, and it is better to tell Ye Mingyue to sue Ye Xianzun than to turn over old accounts in the future. And with this, he can ask Ye Xianzun to give him a policy tilt or other subsidies, in short, he can't let him work for a long time! Seeing that Ye Mingyue was already dumbfounded, he gave up his hand again and just left.
After he left for a while, Sister-in-law Zhang outside opened her head to poke her head, and Ye Mingyue woke up from her sluggishness. In her hometown, in Beijing, she has also seen some men, some of whom deliberately appear gentle and elegant in front of her, mature and timeless, and some of whom desperately show their talents in front of her, talking about the ideal of governing the country and leveling the world, and there are also many junjie in the field. It is already rare to be a young man like Master Li, but his temper is so maverick, but Wang Fulin is good, and he is about to be said to be a legend outside, and he doesn't even cherish his image, and what he said just now is so reasonable!
She casually said a few perfunctory words to Sister-in-law Zhang, then walked out of the kitchen quickly, and waited until she entered the double door, and then muttered in a low voice: "Aren't you afraid that Dad will think you're a scoundrel?" ”
I don't know if it's angry, or if I really want to see what my father's reaction is, Ye Mingyue turned back to the study. Without any embellishment, Wang Fulin's words about asking for benefits were directly relayed to Ye Junyao. What surprised her was that the sage read books well and spoke quite beautifully, but he was a utilitarian father. It was after a moment of stunned thought that he laughed out loud.
"In the end, it's a fourteen-year-old stunned boy, it's nothing to be a rogue, wasn't this the trick he used to deal with Zhao Sicheng last time? I was thinking about how to reward him for his hard work, but he actually mentioned it directly. Hmm, just wait for this batch of people in She County to come out. I'll say hello to Master Feng and make up for him directly! When Ye Junyao said this, he found that his daughter was looking at him with strange eyes. This has to be replaced by that stupid and fat son, he has long been annoyed and angry and disciplined, but his daughter has never been easy to fool. He had to make it clear.
"Master Li is tied up with sixty taels a year, plus our family's other expenses, and we have to post it upside down if it's not enough, you don't know. Besides, he is a local student in She County, and I can't hire him as a master, how can I supplement him? To say that I have already taken Jinbao and Qiu Feng in to study with your brother, it is not appropriate to show overtures. ”
Ye Mingyue no longer knows what to say about her father. On the one hand, he praised people's true temperament. On the one hand, he is still a dime, and he plans to take the quota of county school students to do favors. Fortunately, under the guise of letting Master Li and his younger brother go together, I have already made up three taels of silver...... Even so. Wang Fulin's family is a full 7,000 taels in debt! Could it be that what Wang Fulin wants is also a life?
Wang Fulin didn't expect that after the father and daughter discussed it, they would ask for his hint of asking for wages all the way to the school. God is pitiful, he is the one who said in public that he wants to abolish his business, and the county school student is a subsidy of a few stone rice. But there are a lot of poor students who are fighting, and he can fight for this? Although there were some unexpected things in the kitchen of the county family. But his stomach was half full, and he walked out of the back door of the county magistrate's office. The steps were brisk, and the mood unconsciously changed from the heaviness and incomprehension when he saw the dead body, to the lightness and freehand that he had now regained his lightness.
When he arrived at the door of his house, he only knocked lightly, and the door opened silently, but the head that poked out made his right hand freeze there.
Why is that superb guy from Wufu Pawnshop still here? Damn, I forgot to ask Zhao Wuye to help find this kid's luggage cover, and find him a job by the way!
"Little official, you're back." Ye Qinglong nodded and welcomed Wang Fulin in, and quickly closed the door, and then followed behind Wang Fulin and said, "When the sister-in-law of the Liu family left in the kitchen, she also heated the chicken soup on the stove, left a bowl of white rice, and steamed roasted wheat in the cage drawer, just look at what the little officials like to eat." The hot water is already boiled......"
Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Wang Fulin suddenly turned his head and glanced at the person suspiciously, and suddenly had a very bad feeling in his heart.
As soon as Wang Fulin wanted to say something, he only heard a voice from behind him, and when he turned around, he saw Jinbao running here, and there was a Qiu Feng with a very subtle expression not far behind him. Although he didn't know what was going on, since he felt that there must be a problem, he immediately pointed at Ye Qinglong and asked, "This kid is still here?" ”
Jin Bao saw Qiu Feng gritting his teeth, and Ye Qinglong was cautious with a smile on his face, so he walked to Wang Fulin's side, tiptoed into Wang Fulin's ear and whispered: "Dad, Cheng Gongzi bought his ten-year contract with one hundred taels of silver, saying that he left it for his father to be a small servant, and then left the deed and went home." ”
Journey...... Then...... High! You scoundrel!
Wang Fulin was simply angry. He generously divided Cheng Naixuan one hundred taels, that is because he wants to be fair, no matter how to say that the Cheng family has two family members to help, and Cheng Naixuan also asks for money to reward people when he returns, he can't let the family contribute and paste the silver. But this damn loser actually took a hundred taels to hire him a superb young man! This guy knows how to write the word waste!
ps: Early in the morning, I encountered the problem of not being able to vote for a monthly ticket, and then I couldn't see the subscription, and then I sent a book review to explain that I was automatically banned, and everything went wrong! The monthly pass is not so fast, everyone will keep it for me first, and the second will be sent first, and there will be no less five watches today! (To be continued)
