Now we can only pin our hopes on this snitch! I hope he didn't sleep and found himself in time to plug in the sign.

He hid all the way, and was almost discovered by the patrol of the street several times, but fortunately, it was just a curfew, and the intensity of the inspection was not so strict, so he came to the Qingfeng Temple in fear and without danger. I found a long dead branch and stuck it in the grass at the entrance of the temple. Pray that the snitch will see it.

When he was done, he walked down the alley back to the back door of the pharmacy.

When the second elder was panicking and didn't know what to do, he heard someone knocking on the back door of the kitchen, and his son's voice calling the door, Liang was surprised and happy, and hurriedly ran to the kitchen to open the back door, Zuo Shaoyang came in panting, leaned against the door, and a heart fell in his stomach.

Zuo Gui angrily asked him why he only came back at this time, but Zuo Shaoyang only said that something was delayed. Seeing that his son was back, Liang was overjoyed, and he was busy speaking for his son, and said that his son was able to do it today, and he sold a hundred taels of silver for a prescription, plus a red, so he should be happy and happy, don't be angry.

Zuo Gui thought about it, anyway, his son came back safely, and his anger disappeared.

Zuo Shaoyang didn't see the box of silver, and hurriedly asked, "Where is the money?" ”

Zuo Gui's father said: "I have already asked your mother to put it away." As I said before, you can decide how you want to spend the money you earn. Your mother is just keeping it for you. You can make money now, Dad is very happy, Dad knows that you are a very sensible child and will not spend money indiscriminately. Now you have set aside ten acres of wasteland in the Yamen to grow medicinal herbs, and you will have to spend money......

Liang said: "I have to leave some for Zhong'er to marry a daughter-in-law!" ”

Zuo Gui smiled: "You old woman is dizzy?" One hundred taels of silver, one hundred thousand dollars, you have to count them one by one, and you can't count them until dawn! Still worried about not having money to marry a daughter-in-law? Rest assured. - By the way, Zhong'er, just now I heard you and the old shopkeeper Zhu talk about what the old mother of the Sang family said, saying that you can do it if you have money, just now I didn't want to ask, what is the matter? ”

"It's really nothing." Zuo Shaoyang said with a smile.

Zuo Gui smiled: "You don't say that you think I don't know?" Hmph, her Sang family asked for a bride price of 70,000 wen before she agreed to marry Sang Xiaomei to our Zuo family, right? ”

Zuo Shaoyang was stunned for a moment, a little embarrassed, and said, "Well, dad, how do you know?" ”

"On the way back from the yamen, you talk to the Miao girl who is collecting firewood, I will come back first, and on the way, I was stopped by the Wang Po next to the Qingxiang Tea Shop, and said that the Sang family had agreed to this family business, but asked for a bride price of 70,000 yuan. ――When did you ask the media to talk about it? ”

Liang smiled with a bitter face: "Master, this is a year ago, the princess said that Zhong'er is a good match with the three girls of the Qingxiang Tea Shop, and asked me if I said that it would be a good match." I agreed. Wang Po just asked, they didn't say anything at the time, and it has been delayed until now, and I don't know when she agreed. ”

Zuo Gui said coldly with a straight face: "Why didn't you tell me about this?" ”

"Yes, I was wrong, I just wanted to explore the wind first, if the other party also meant this, and then tell the master, and then ask the media to mention it. Just ......"

Zuo Gui said sharply: "I have said many times, Zhong'er is the only seedling of my Zuo family, and this daughter-in-law must be decided by me personally, don't you have long ears?" ”

Liang was so frightened that he rubbed his hands together and lowered his head, and his eyes were full of tears.

Zuo Shaoyang hurriedly said: "Dad, forget it......"

"What's it! This is a lifelong event, how can you propose a marriage hastily? Although the Sang family helped us last time, but the bridge returns to the bridge and the road returns, one yard to one yard, we will return this love, but we can't get married! Haven't you heard? A few days ago, their three girls went crazy on the street, and they even used bricks to cut people, and almost shot Dr. Ni of Huimin Hall to death. Can a madman enter our Zuo family as a daughter-in-law? ”

Zuo Shaoyang helped his mother mutter: "At that time, my mother didn't know it......"

"Don't know? Even if there is no such thing, this family should also consider it, they are a tea shop, and they don't know a few big characters, can they be worthy of our Zuo family? Don't forget, Zhong'er's Taizu is an eight-rank official, and our Zuo family is an official family, can the daughter-in-law be hastily decided? If he had agreed at that time, would this family be satisfied? ”

Liang was about to cry, trembling and not daring to say a word.

Zuo Shaoyang said: "Dad, forget it, don't you talk about it?" They want a bride price of 70,000 yuan, which is simply selling their daughters as commodities, so I don't want to spend money to buy my daughter-in-law, so what's the matter! So I refused on the spot. ”

Zuo Gui was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Okay!" Zhong'er's words are reasonable, what kind of family in our family can afford to spend money to buy a daughter-in-law? Now, the one hundred taels of silver of the white flowers are placed here, seventy thousand wen? Hehe, if you really want to spend 70,000 yuan to buy a daughter-in-law, what kind of good girl can't buy it? Do you need to ask to go to his Sang family? Alright, ma'am, you will go and tell the princess that this family is not to be discussed! ”

"Yes......" Liang hurriedly agreed.

Zuo Shaoyang's sad eyes immediately appeared in front of Sang Xiaomei's eyes, and he was excited in his heart, and opened his mouth to say: "Dad, forget it, don't talk about it, didn't they just ignore us for a long time, we answered so sloppily, but it seems that we are stingy, we also learn from them and ignore them, wouldn't it be better?" ”

Zuo Shaoyang didn't know why he said that, he just blurted it out. Maybe there is still a nostalgia for Sang Xiaomei in his heart, and he is unwilling to block this road.

Zuo Gui stroked his beard and nodded repeatedly: "What Zhong'er said makes sense." Well, ignoring this matter is, the princess came to ask again, but she only said that she hadn't thought about it. Oh - okay, go to bed early. Zuo Gui entered the house with his hands behind his back.

Zuo Shaoyang said to his mother Liang: "I still have two ingots of silver, I was going to buy rice just now, but I didn't buy it, so you can keep it together." Zuo Shaoyang handed the silver to his mother.

Liang wiped his tears and nodded, took the silver, and followed Zuo Gui back to the room.

Zuo Shaoyang didn't know if Xiao Feirat could see the tag he inserted at night and come to find him, if he didn't see it, then he had to explain his worries to his parents before the end of the curfew at five watches tomorrow morning, and then as soon as the curfew ended, he immediately asked the second elder to go shopping for rice with him. If Xiao Feiqi comes in time, then just give him the money to buy rice. So there is no need to tell the second elder about it now, so as not to worry them.

Zuo Shaoyang went back to his room and lay on the bed, not sleepy at all. I was baking cakes all night, and I was afraid that I would fall asleep and delay my business. But there was something in his heart, and it was a big event, so he naturally didn't feel sleepy at all.

Seeing that it was nearly five watches, Zuo Shaoyang was thinking about how to buy rice and what to do after buying rice, when he suddenly heard an aggressive voice by the window, raised his eyes and saw a figure printed on the window, and it was upside down, he suddenly woke up in fright, and asked, "Who?" ”

The little squirrel in his pillow nest swooped past like lightning. I heard the man outside the window whispering, "Little brother, it's me!" ”

As soon as he heard the voice, Zuo Shaoyang heard that it was the sissy snitch Xiao Feiling, and said in ecstasy: "Brother Xiao, you are here!" - Yellow Ball, come back! ”

The little squirrel had already scurried to the window, clinging to the lattice, staring warily out of the window, and when he heard his call, he immediately jumped on the bed and jumped back. Zuo Shaoyang hugged the little squirrel, crawled over on his knees, leaned to the window, and poked the window paper with his fingers to look out, only to see Xiao Feiyi hanging upside down under the eaves of his own pharmacy, holding his shoulders with both hands, looking very leisurely, and hurriedly whispered: "Brother Xiao, did you see the mark I inserted?" ”

"See, you're looking for me, I'm looking for you too, hehe."

"Then you wait, I'll come out right away."

"Now it's curfew, where are you going? Wait, I'll hang you up from the roof, let's talk from the roof! Just be quiet. ”

"Good!"

Zuo Shaoyang tilted his head and waited, and after a moment, the tile above his head was silently uncovered, and a thin rope fell. Zuo Shaoyang hurriedly tied the string around his waist, held it with both hands, and pulled it. I felt that my waist was tight, and my body slowly rose, and when I reached the roof, an old hand reached out and grabbed him and lifted him up, and did not put it down, but carried him with one hand, and walked lightly to the roof beam.

Although this Xiao Feiquer carried a person in his hand and walked on the roof tiles, he did not even break a single tile, and he was really good.

Zuo Shaoyang found that there was a big package on the beam, which was a little strange, and after thinking about it, he understood, and said in a low voice: "Brother went to rob the rich and help the poor, ah no, robbed the rich and helped the Bodhisattva?" ”

Xiao Fei's eyes glared: "Don't laugh at the Bodhisattva!" ”

"Oh-" Zuo Shaoyang stuck out his tongue.

Xiao Feimouse said: "Today, you went to the Yamen to help Huimin Hall Ni Er testify, and I watched the lawsuit before and after." ”

"You were there? Why didn't I see you? ”

"I want you not to see, even if you're standing in front of you, you don't know!"

"Really? Hehe, your disguise technique is so high? This face can't be fake too, right? Zuo Shaoyang reached out to touch his rough and old face.

Xiao Feimouse slapped his hand open: "Be serious!" ”

"Oh." Zuo Shaoyang took his hand back.

Xiao Feirat said: "I think that although Huimin Tang Ni Er is hateful, but in the end, he did not deliberately poison the old lady of the Sui family, he overdosed, and the purpose was also to save the old lady of the Sui family, but his ability was not good, so something went wrong." Their family lost a lot of money, and this Ni Er suffered sixty boards, which is interesting enough, I didn't expect this Sui shopkeeper to be so vicious, he actually bought the soap and broke Ni Er's legs, making him a cripple for the rest of his life, which can be regarded as rich and unkind. So, I just went to this Sui family......"

"I see! This Sui shopkeeper got such a large amount of compensation today, and he is ruthless and vicious, and he is not benevolent to the rich, so you, a half-hung righteous man, went to rob the rich and ......, what did you do, right? ”

"Exactly!" Xiao Feimouse said with a smile, "Not only did I bring all the benefits he got from Dr. Ni today, but I also brought his gold and silver to a guy, oh, a big bag full, it's no wonder that he doesn't feel distressed to death this time." This big bag is at least enough for dozens of temples to renovate and expand, and to put gold dust on dozens of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Hey, hey, hey. ”
