Chapter Eighty-Seven: Ripples of the Confucian Family
Kong Lianshun wrinkled his brows, did not squeak, and looked stunned, as if he was trying to think about something.
"Don't rush, think slowly. Let's get out of here first. ”
Ding Bao knew that he was extremely frightened just now, and now his legs were still shaking, and the cold sweat on his back soaked the entire thin shirt, so he didn't press anymore, held his thin arm, and walked out.
The person hidden in the "General Ci", when he heard that the two of them were going to leave regardless of it, and they couldn't open their mouths to call for help for fear of exposure.
Kong Lianshun was still a little hesitant, but when he heard the clear and powerful sound of kicking the wall, his expression suddenly relaxed, and he followed Ding Bao out.
Outside the Jiuchuan Station, under the two bright clear cloth lanterns, the steward who nodded and bowed before took four or five guards on duty, and fell to the ground with five bodies.
He didn't even dare to open his mouth to shout for mercy, and he trembled and walked on thin ice.
It was obviously a cool autumn night, but there were beads of sweat the size of beans, dripping down his forehead and constantly breaking on the grinding stone steps.
Kong Lianshun's black face was even darker, and he rushed up angrily, kicked it alone, and then was pulled by Ding Bao, "Okay, just vent." How dare they, shrimp soldiers, crab generals, and small officials fight with you immortals, they naturally don't help each other, and it's better to avoid as far as they can. If you have no choice, don't be embarrassed. ”
Turning his face, he confessed: "Get up, prepare a carriage, I and Young Master Kong will use it." ”
The person in charge on the ground was almost moved to cry, and he kowtowed a few times, and several other pawns also did the same, knocking loudly, until Ding Bao waved his hand, and several people got up from the ground, and rushed out to hear that his wife was stealing a man's degree.
Before long, Ding Bao and Kong Lian sat steadily in the carriage by the way.
The steward had to be whipped in person, otherwise he would kneel like his dead mother, and Ding Bao had no choice but to rely on him.
During the whole process, Kong Lianshun didn't speak, just wrinkled his brows and sighed, until the carriage stopped and Ding Bao lifted the curtain, and he suddenly woke up and said: "Brother Ning, here, why did you come back to Xin Inn again?" ”
"Where you fall, you must get up."
Ding Bao said, slapped his palm, and said with a smile: "Come down, my brother will teach you today, this prefect son, what to do!" ”
After speaking, he raised his hand, called the person in charge, and explained a few words in his ear, and the manager stretched his collar, straightened his chest and stomach, knocked on the door with great strides, and entered the inn.
Faster than Ding Bao imagined, after the sound of chickens flying and dogs jumping and benches and chairs falling down in the inn came out, and then, the fat shopkeeper who squinted at the inn and loved to look at people with his nostrils helped his trembling white-bearded father, followed by seven or eight people of all kinds, hurriedly greeted him in disheveled clothes, and hurriedly kowtowed and knelt down as soon as they met.
The old Sichuan post steward immediately raised his hand to stop it, coughed, and said proudly: "Two upper rooms." This time, Young Master Kong wanted to live in a clean room. ”
The sweat on the fat shopkeeper's forehead burst out at once, and he was so frightened that his butt urinated, and he hurriedly beckoned the job to go back and prepare.
Before stepping into the gate, Ding Bao glanced at him lightly, but it was like a thousand pounds to him, and he almost crushed his fat backbone.
The two adjoining upper rooms were quickly prepared, and it is unknown whether the store was really full or whether the residents were evicted. Walking to the third floor, before entering the guest room, Ding Bao suddenly turned around, patted the steward who followed closely like a little tail, and said, "It's a big night, it's hard." Young Master Kong wants to know, what is the name of the brother? ”
The steward suddenly felt that his bones were three pounds lighter, and he lowered his head, and his voice was a little trembling, "Humble duty, Ma Fugui." ”
"Rich, good name. Not bad. ”
After Ding Bao finished speaking, he turned around and closed the door, saw Kong Lianshun looking at him with a surprised face, and explained with a smile: "This Ma Fugui is a clever ghost, if you have anything inconvenient to do in the future, you can ask him to do it for you." Of course, it doesn't mean that you can use him to bully others, and you ...... in the fish and meat town."
While he was talking, the chief of the inn and the chief of the street rushed over one after another, and even a prefect who lived nearby, Yamen Bingfang, and a governor of the experience department, all hurried over and gathered downstairs. It didn't take long for a chief catcher to hurry over with seven or eight quick catchers, and without explanation, he automatically and consciously stood guard outside the door.
"Brother Ning, those people outside?"
"Don't worry. With them supporting below, no matter how domineering your little cousin is, you always have to pay a little attention to the influence. You can get a good night's sleep later. ”
He made such a show tonight, not to ask for a fake tiger to be angry and collect debts or anything, purely because he felt that Kong Lianshun was a little too righteous and kind, although he sometimes looked profligate on the outside, but in fact, he was rigid and roundabout on the inside, and wanted to order him.
Righteousness and kindness are naturally good morals, but everything is too much, and as my little brother, I can't bear to be bullied like this on my own turf. The most important thing is that with his identity, he can actually do a lot of things, if he can be a little flexible after feeling this time, it will naturally be far more beneficial to the people of Xiyan than simple justice and kindness.
Kong Lianshun is also a smart person, thought for a while, poured a cup of tea for Ding Bao, and suddenly held back a sentence: "Brother Ning, junior brother thinks about it carefully, poisoning the restaurant, putting toads under the bed, and pretending to be a ghost and scary at night, these are not quite in line with Cousin Kong's style of acting." ”
Ding Bao was not surprised when he heard this, and nodded and said, "Go on." ”
"It's not once or twice that the younger brother offended cousin Kongci, and this time there is nothing unusual, that is, she took a fancy to a shantytown next to the old moat, and wanted to buy it, and the price was quite thick and fair, but it was destroyed by the younger brother. The younger brother also knew in his heart that if the place was in his cousin's hands, it would definitely play a greater role, but the younger brother just couldn't bear it, that shantytown was inhabited by some families of soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, and most of them could not make a normal living. These people are short-sighted and shallow-sighted, and they want to sell their cousin when they see that they have opened three times the market price, but no one thinks that the money will be spent in three or five years, and the younger brother really can't stand it......"
"That's right, you're right, and so is your cousin."
Hearing Ding Bao's words of support, Kong Lianshun perked up and continued: "What Brother Ning said before is that although Cousin Kong Ci is moody, she is by no means a person who is idle and entangled, in fact, she is very busy all day long, and she is also very angry and straightforward, although the younger brother is not convinced, but I have to say that Cousin Kong Ci can really be called a first-class strange woman in the world. The domineering style in front of the city gate yesterday may have been done by her, but then poisoning, releasing insects, and pretending to be scary is too petty, and when you think about it, it seems to be another person's style......"
As he was talking, there was a sudden fierce knock on the door, and a female voice as innocent as a bell shouted angrily: "Kong Lianshun, open the door!" ”
As soon as Kong Lianshun heard this voice, he was so frightened that he jumped up directly from the stool, his face changed greatly, and he stammered: "I knew, I knew, it was really her!" ”
"Who the hell is it?" You can put Ding in a hurry.
"My sister, Kong Lianyi." At the mention of these three words, Kong Lianshun's voice was a lot lighter, and then he seemed to wake up something, his face was full of panic and panic, and he was so anxious that he grabbed Ding Bao's arm tightly with both hands, and pleaded with a crying voice: "Brother Ning, no matter what, you must help the younger brother tide over the difficulties this time, great kindness, and be a cow and a horse in the next life." ”
Ding Bao was unmoved: "My sister, what is there to explain, as for it?" ”
"Brother Ning, you don't know, at least half of the name of Cousin Kongci's crazy demon girl was earned back by Ripples, although Cousin is domineering, but she still makes some sense, but if this Kong Ripples is really crazy, even she is afraid!" Kong Lianshun said as he spoke, so anxious that he almost knelt down.
"What's the benefit of provoking such a character?"
"I saved my little brother today, and you will be my eldest brother in the future, and you will not frown when you go up the knife mountain and down the sea of fire. The matter of deriving the grass garden is to kneel down and ask the Holy Father's uncle, and the younger brother will also be able to do it for you. Seeing that the knocking on the door outside was becoming more and more intense, the little girl seemed to be about to kick the door, Kong Lianshun was really anxious.
"Why?"
Kong Lianshun got up solemnly, quickly made a cumbersome ancient ceremony, and said word by word: "I am willing to take the cold wind and go straight out of the floating clouds." ”
Ding Bao originally intended to tease him, but he didn't expect him to swear in the ethnic language of the Shengmen Kong family, and he was really a sincere person, so he immediately said: "Open the door." ”
The door opened, and a little girl in a yellow shirt who was twelve or thirteen years old, as bright as a sunflower, walked in with her hands behind her back and on her toes. The little girl is in the breeding period, like a rice seedling with heading, from top to bottom, full of youthful breath, eyebrows and eyes and facial features are very similar to Kong Lianshun, clear and delicate, the complexion is very white, and Kong Lianshun's little black face is completely two extremes, the same parents, I don't know how to give birth.
The biggest difference between the two is in their eyes, which are different from Kong Lianshun's clear and sincere eyes, the little girl's eyes are very demonic, smart and wise, and dotted with paint and ink, like a little fox who is always ready to do bad things.
"Hehe, Ripples, you listen to my brother's explanation, the birthday ......"
"Shut up." Kong Lianyi's little girl wrinkled her nose, interrupted Kong Lianshun angrily, raised her little face, and said angrily: "Hmph, this girl doesn't recognize the person who forgot my birthday as her brother." Hmph, forget about my sister's birthday, but I still know the diary of my cousin so clearly, and I even bought a golden wing to receive a white eagle to congratulate and please him. What makes this girl angry to death the most is that the money to buy the white eagle is actually stealing my money......"
"Ripples, my brother offended his cousin that day and was in a hurry to leave......"
"Shut up. This girl only asks you, is the money you paid to pick up the white eagle my New Year's money, I have saved the New Year's money for 12 years? ”
“…… Be. ”
Hearing Kong Lianshun spit out this word, Ding Bao's face changed suddenly, and he moved the stool very disdainfully, vowing to make a clear relationship with this hypocrite who stole the little girl's New Year's money.
"Hmph, finally admit it. I didn't agree, and said it wasn't stealing? ”
"It's obviously borrowed, but it's a scholar's business, how can it be considered stealing?" Kong Lianshun responded weakly.
"Hmph, you just have a hard mouth, and I'll settle accounts with you later." Kong Lianyi's little girl pursed her lips, ignored him anymore, turned her little head around, pointed at Ding Bao, her eyes narrowed, her face was full of strange smiles, and she said in a childish voice: "This girl is here this time to challenge this big brother on behalf of Cousin Kong Ci!" ”
