Chapter 354 Sending Parents Away to Work
When Wang Fulin went to see his parents and talked to Wang Daoguan again, in the room where the girl in white was temporarily placed under house arrest last night, Ma Liang and Liu Qian were accompanied by the shopkeeper lady, trying to pry each other's mouths open. However, no matter how the two of them asked, the other party just clenched his mouth and said nothing, and the angry criminal master Ma Liang wished that this was in the public court, under Miki, and he didn't worry about having no testimony. But suddenly thinking that it was a bitter master, not a prisoner, he finally knocked his forehead and turned his head to look at Liu Qian.
At this time, Liu Qian could only come up with the last helpless way, and said with a straight face: "This girl, you must know that Brother Ling is the one who participated in the fight, if you don't open your mouth, then, don't say that you want to get justice for Brother Ling, it is those who support your brother to go to the fight say that the buried silver is lent to you, and they insist on asking for it, even the county will not be able to help you uphold justice." When the time comes, it will be you and your mother who will suffer. ”
Seeing this, the shopkeeper's lady also persuaded in a low voice: "Ah Ying, don't you want to sue?" These two are the most useful masters around Zhou Xianzun in Hanyang County, and they have the same thing to say......"
The girl called Ah Ying raised her head suddenly, but asked with a sad and angry face, "Why didn't Wang Gongzi come?" Doesn't it mean that he is warm-hearted, and the road is the most uneven? Why did we suddenly fall into the sky, but he did nothing? I just want to ask him to come to Wang Buyuan to say a few words and administer justice to us, why did he avoid it? ”
Wang Fulin, who had just arranged other things, happened to come to the door at this time, and when he heard this, his whole face twitched a little. The ancient road is uneven? Is this talking about him? If he's not mistaken. I am completely in charge of the snow in front of my house. Regardless of the type of frost on the tile of others. If you can't afford to be early, you can't hide away when you see things, who is such a nosy person, is it okay to find him the most in nosy? He no longer hesitated, pushed the door of the room and entered, and when he saw that everyone in the room looked up to look at him, he said nonchalantly, "Since you have to see me, all right." I'm here, and I have something to say. ”
Ah Yingden was stunned, she wiped her red and swollen eyes vigorously, and said loudly: "This time, I was recruited to fight at Xin'an Wharf with my eldest brother, there are more than 200 people in total, and each family gave two taels of silver in advance, and what was promised was that everything was to create momentum and suppress the other party, but I didn't expect it to be a real fight in the end!" And now after giving the money to burn it, my eldest brother's body has not been seen until now. My mother cried so much that her tears were almost dry! Fifty taels of silver wants to buy the eldest brother's life, how can it be so easy. He is not married yet, and he is still the only seedling in the family, who will give my mother a pension in the future? ”
Seeing that she said sadly, Wang Fulin took a light breath, and then asked: "The affairs of Hankou Town are under the control of the Hanyang County Government, and Zhou County Zun has always been quite virtuous, why don't you go and file a complaint?" ”
"It was said by the person who sent the money to be burned and buried, and it is precisely because Zhou County has a good reputation and good political performance and official reputation, even so, if there is such a big mess under the rule, he will definitely help those businessmen to suppress the matter, where will he care about a few people's lives. Anyway, you can't see anyone alive, and you can't see a corpse when you die! Ah Ying wiped her tears while saying, and finally raised her head and said, "I don't believe in this evil, one family knocked on the door to ask other houses, only then did I know that each family only had such a small amount of money, everyone was unwilling and reluctant, and later someone said about Wang Gongzi, saying that maybe he could ask Wang Minyuan to come forward to uphold justice!" ”
Wang Fulin didn't ask who the so-called person was, and it was difficult to ask at this time, but asked again: "Who invited your eldest brother to participate in that fight?" ”
"He is a steward next to the second master of the Bao family, and he is in charge of all the affairs outside."
"So, if you want to uphold justice, do you want to recruit those Huizhou wealthy merchants who recruited your eldest brother to make a splash to give more money to the pension, or do you want those thugs invited by the Huguang Merchants Gang to give him his life in the chaotic war?"
"Of course, let the murderer give my eldest brother his life!" Ah Ying's voice suddenly became a little sharp and sharp, "Moreover, my eldest brother died for those rich people, shouldn't they have more bereavement benefits?" One hundred and eighty taels of silver is just a hair plucked for them, but it is a breadwinner for a family like us! ”
Wang Fulin didn't want to talk much about this girl who burned paper in her yard in the middle of the night last night, because she was not happy to be calculated. But now when he heard her say this, although he knew that a weak woman who had lost her brother at once was pitiful, he was somehow very uncomfortable in his heart. He glanced at the shopkeeper and said lightly: "Their mother and daughter stay here, you take good care of them." ”
When he went out, Wang Fulin thought about it, and ignored Ma Liang and Liu Qian, who had just found nothing, and were annoyed at this time, and asked people to send a message to the shopkeeper and find the young broker Bao Shucheng who had been his guide before. Regardless of whether this guy is related to the second master of the Bao family, he feels more credible because of his cleverness and the fact that he is the first person he met in Hankou.
However, when Bao Shucheng came in a hurry, as soon as he looked at him, he was stunned all of a sudden. After Wang Daoguan went to the county government to "collect debts" that day, he warned Bao Shucheng a few words and said a few words to terminate the contract of hiring someone to be a guide.
"You're ......"
Yesterday, Master Ma revealed the news to the guys in the inn, and it was not the first time that Wang Daoguan had entered and exited this inn, so Bao Shucheng already knew that this little official with a generous hand was actually Wang Daokun's nephew! At this moment, he lowered his head a little embarrassedly and whispered, "I was also on the dock yesterday." ”
Wang Fulin didn't expect to meet a person who was involved that day, and hurriedly asked: "Wasn't it agreed in advance, and the scene was not cleared?" Have you ever broken your bones? ”
Bao Shucheng rubbed the bruise on his left cheek, and said with palpitations: "I made an appointment in advance, but I didn't expect that so many people would come, so many people in our Hui Gang were temporarily pulled to fill the number, and I was among them." ”
Hearing this, Wang Fulin couldn't help but look at Bao Shucheng up and down, seeing that his figure was thin, and some people believed that he was a scholar, and he didn't look like he could fight, so he was even more suspicious.
"It was the second master of the Bao family who saw that the situation was not good, so he asked us brokers to give sticks, but I never thought that the other party was actually a moving Pu knife." Speaking of the situation at the time. Bao Shucheng couldn't help but shudder again. His voice trembled slightly. "If it weren't for the timely arrival of those errand soldiers, and the threat that the officers and soldiers were coming, I am afraid that we would have lost this battle. The Xin'an Wharf, which has been opened by our ancestors for generations, is about to be handed over. ”
Ah Ying resented the wealthy businessmen who organized the fight for their lives, but Bao Shucheng meant that those Hui merchants had not prepared before, Wang Fulin thought about it and didn't continue to ask more, so he opened his mouth and ordered: "That's it, you bring a letter." An hour later, I would like to visit the second master of the Bao family. ”
Bao Shucheng didn't expect Wang Fulin to come to him for this. was taken aback, and hesitated for a moment before he said: "Although the surname is Bao, I and the second master are not of the same clan, but they have the same surname, and at most the steward has dealt with me once or twice, I am afraid that it will delay the affairs of the petty officials." ”
"It doesn't matter. Take this. ”
Bao Shucheng took the things handed by Wang Fulin, looked down, but found that it was not Wang Daokun's famous thorn as he guessed, but the famous thorn of the old lady Xu on Doosan Street in Shexian County. Although he has been away from his hometown for some years, he still does not know the name of the Xu family who is calling for wind and rain in the Lianghuai salt industry. Now I was settled, and I slipped away with a promise.
As soon as he left. Wang Fulin instructed someone to call Ma Liang and Liu Qian over. Knowing that this Master Qian Gu and a criminal master are all confidants of Zhou Xianzun, who has been to Hankou Town on weekdays and has also been in contact with several major merchant forces, he immediately said: "In this way, please ask Master Ma again about that Ah Ying, which other families have died, you can contact it with great fanfare." At this time, don't be bent on covering, the more you cover it, the more people will spread the news to reveal the matter, but the more high-profile you behave, the more calculating people have to think more and throw a mouse. As for Master Liu, go back and follow me to see Second Master Bao. ”
He even wants to show the carriage and horses to see the sufferer?
Ma Liang wanted to object, but chewing on the second half of Wang Fulin's words, he had to admit that things might be like this, so he had to agree at the moment. Half an hour later, Bao Shucheng came back with good news, Bao Er's master was on the dock, and he had hurried back after getting the news, and he was free at this time. So, Wang Fulin immediately rushed over with Liu Qian and didn't come back until dinner.
Although he was pressing such a major event that ordinary people would be worried about, he casually accompanied Wang Daoyun and Wu to have a peaceful dinner. When the two parents went to bed early because of the effect of the tranquilizing decoction, he drew a gourd and put down Mother Long and Xiaoju with tea and snacks, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
The next night, I don't know how many people in Hankou Town have chickens and dogs, and they can't sleep all night. When Wang Fulin returned to the inn before the first ray of sunshine appeared, he hastily freshened up, just as his parents had just gotten up, so he directly instructed the shopkeeper to pack the prepared breakfast and luggage with his parents and send them to the boat.
Now, he is not afraid of what gossip someone will say in front of these two, and then he can let go of his hands and feet!
On the boat heading south, Wang Daoyun saw Wu standing at the bow of the boat, always looking in the direction of Xin'an Wharf, so he stepped forward and whispered: "Go back to the cabin, if Shuangmu is really as powerful as Zhong Yan said, no one in Hankou Town can make him suffer." Besides, aren't there still Brother Kun and Zhongyan Zhongjia? ”
"How is that the same! My mother is worried, even if he has the ability, he is still my son! Wu glared at her, and seeing that her husband was a little stupid, she whispered, "Moreover, I don't believe that you haven't heard any rumors, I am afraid that he stayed this time only for the dispute at Xin'an Wharf." How many wealthy businessmen are involved, and what if he can't bear it? ”
"A loving mother has many defeated children, and when the child is older, she must let go." Wang Daoyun muttered a little embarrassed, thinking that Wang Daoguan conveyed Wang Daokun's words and asked him not to be entangled in marriage anymore, his brows were tightly locked again.
Anyway, when he gets home, he must visit the Ye family!
