[16] Guojiazhuang

Yao Fan called He Shicheng and Wang Chuannian and ordered them to send the 10,000 taels of silver tickets wrapped in layers of cloth to Wei Guofu's garrison yamen.

As the saying goes, "one person is private and two people are public", Yao Fan didn't dare to ask only one person to send silver, in case it was advantageous for Zhizhi to abandon his hometown and his parents not to swallow the silver and run away, then Yao Fan would lose a lot.

Yao Fan instructed He Shicheng uneasily: "You two must hand over this burden to Master Wei in person, and no one else is allowed to hand it over, and you are not allowed to open this burden to see." ”

He Shicheng and Wang Chuannian were also honest, He Shicheng stuffed the small cloth bag into his arms, and ran to the garrison yamen with Wang Chuannian.

At this time, I saw that Wei Guofu had already lit up thirty or fifty people in the small school field in front of the camp, Wang Chuannian hurriedly stepped forward to call a thousand, and said, "Master Wei, my owner has something with you." ”

Wei Guofu knew in his heart that Yao Fan had sent someone to send silver.

He silently led the two of them into the back hall of the yamen, and when he saw the silver ticket, he was happy, and ordered his subordinates to take the silver, and rewarded the two of them with one tael each.

It is said that Wei Guofu collected the silver ticket here, and immediately took the soldiers of the garrison camp to march towards Jimo County in the north.

Why is Wei Guofu so bold?

It must be known that he is a garrison, looking on an equal footing with Sun Maowen, the Jiaozhou judge from the seventh grade, and Liu Ziming, the customs inspector, but in fact, he is a five-grade official.

Since ancient times, China has been noble and lowly and admired scholars, so military attaches have never dared to look down on low-grade civil officials. But if you really want to compare the real thing, where is the grade. Therefore, Wei Guofu theoretically said that in Jimo County, where the county order is a seven-grade official, it can go sideways.

In addition, as the so-called civil and military affairs, ordinary civilian officials cannot interfere in the army at all, and even if they meet civilian officials with a higher grade than Wei Guofu, the other party can only stare dryly. Although the Guo family has an old lady in Jiangxi who is supervising the imperial history, it is in Jiangxi, thousands of miles away, and Wei Guofu, the Shandong army under the jurisdiction of Li Hongzhang, the governor of Zhili, will not do anything like that at all.

So Wei Guofu didn't take Yao Fan's errand seriously at all, he was happy in his heart along the way, and said that it was easy to come by 10,000 taels.

If this matter is a big problem, he only needs to take two or three thousand taels of silver and send it to the general yamen of Laizhou Mansion, and the horizontal and vertical will be settled.

So Wei Guofu took a full sentry of 100 soldiers, of which 30 of his own soldiers were all equipped with bird guns, and the rest were equipped with bright knives and guns.

The group followed Wei Guofu, who was riding a horse, and came to Guojiazhuang, which was more than ten miles north of Qingdao.

It is Guo Jixiu who is now in charge of the Guo family's old house, his father Guo Weizhong is the supervisor of the imperial history of Jiangxi, and there are two Jinshi in his ancestors, so he didn't treat Wei Guofu as a great role.

Guo Jixiu heard that Wei Guofu was coming, and he was also bringing soldiers with him, and he was looking for someone to ask for someone, so he immediately jumped up in anger.

He didn't open the door to greet him, he went up to the wall of his house from the horse slope, held the deed in his hand, and shouted to Wei Guofu below:

"Master Wei, go back, what nonsense are you talking about here! That Third Sister Su was redeemed from Chunmian Hall by me for spending money. It's a deed, you can see it clearly! ”

Wei Guofu said fuck you, although Lao Tzu is not literate, he still recognizes the word "fucking deed", and now Lao Tzu has received the silver, if he can't do this, won't it become a joke!

Wei Guofu rode on his horse, craned his neck, and shouted at the five-meter-high city wall of the Guo family's house: "Guo Jixiu, the third sister's fixed money was paid by my brother Yao Fan first!" Here is the receipt of the queen mother of the Chunmian Hall, and the evidence is conclusive.

Guo Jixiu, everything has a first come, first come, first come, my brother paid the deposit first, this third sister is naturally already my brother's woman, you don't have to quibble with this guard, otherwise I will treat you for the big crime of forcibly kidnapping people's daughters!

Master, I'll wait here for a while, if you don't let people go, Lao Tzu will set fire to your turtle shell! ”

As the so-called Xiucai met the soldiers, it was unreasonable to explain, not to mention that Guo Jixiu was the unreasonable party, so he immediately turned red with anger, and shouted in a loud voice on the city wall:

"Wei Guofu, don't give face! You are a small guard, and you dare to threaten to burn my Zhuangzi? My father is the imperial history of the dynasty, as long as I repair a book, I will definitely participate in your big crime of using swords and oppressing the squire! When the time comes, Guan Bao will want you to lose your top! ”

But Wei Guofu had already held back the fire in his belly.

He is a dignified five-grade military attaché, came here to bask in the sun for a long time, this Guo family did not open the door to serve tea to greet, Guo Jixiu a cloth dress, did not come to see himself, and stood high on the city wall and shouted at him, angry Wei Guofu said, if you don't pinch out the egg yolk of your surname Guo today, you will not fucking be a five-grade official, you will not be a fucking civilian, from now on, call you uncle!

Wei Guofu almost ordered with a roar: "Someone! Fence off the gate for me! Ma Hang, Dog Bao, you took a group of people into the village to find firewood, and piled it up to burn the door of the thief's den that boldly harbored and abducted the people's daughter! Rush in and grab someone! ”

Seeing that the soldiers were shouting and chirping, and there was chaos at the gate of the village, Guo Jixiu was so angry that he jumped to his feet on the city wall.

Wang Hanshui, the housekeeper on Guo Jixiu's side, hurriedly persuaded: "Uncle, the people don't fight with the officials, let's still ask for the redemption money and hand over the woman." Besides, Master Hengzhu, you have already slept with the third sister, and you have not officially accepted into the house as an aunt's wife, so why bother with her and the garrison. In the future, if you spread it out, or tell the master to know, even if the master goes to this Wei Guofu, you will blame the uncle for your misbehavior when you turn back. ”

Guo Jixiu stomped his feet in hatred and scolded: "Damn, what is that Yao Fan!" An outsider! Wei Guofu, who was instigated, came to my Guo family to find trouble! Wait another day, uncle, I have to fix that blind dog thing! ”

When Wang Hanshui saw Guo Jixiu say this, he knew that he had softened, so he hurriedly arranged for his mother-in-law to set up the third sister Su who was locked in the cellar in the backyard, opened the side corner door of Zhuangzi, and sent the third sister out of Zhuangzi from the narrow long corridor.

Wei Guofu got someone, laughed, and asked Bing Yong to send Su Sanjie to a mule cart, and asked Bing Ding to hand over 1,500 taels of silver tickets to the Guo family, in exchange for the deed. Then he clasped his fists and shouted to the city wall: "The Guo family is worthy of being a big family, haha, I would have been so happy earlier, and it cost me a lot of words." ”

I saw that Guo Jixiu's figure had long been lost on the city wall, and only the housekeeper Wang Hanshui was polite there.

Guo Jixiu had already rushed into the cellar in the backyard at this moment. There was a mad glow in his red eyes.

This large cellar extends in all directions, and there are as many as eight rooms with an ice room, a wine cellar and a storeroom for storing vegetables in winter. Cellars are not uncommon in the north, but such a large scale is indeed rare. The cellar is lit with pine resin oil lamps, which are not depressing because of the vents.

The top of the cellar is firmly clamped with blue-striped stone and rare cement, the walls are still made of blue-striped stone, the sealing soil between the stones is made of three-fold soil, and the ground is paved with green bricks, because the ground is somewhat permeable, and a layer of raised wooden shelves is also laid on the green bricks.

Guo Jixiu locked the door after rushing into the cellar, he rolled up his sleeves, took down a black leather whip hanging from the wall, grinned at the corners of his mouth but did not say a word, and the whole person revealed a kind of beastly hideousness.

His eyes were fixed on the ** woman in the cellar who was tied hand and foot on a wooden frame by water-soaked cow tendons. In the crackling sound of the pine resin oil lamp, the dim light dyed the woman's naked ** orange.

Guo Jixiu grabbed the tip of the braid and stirruped it hard, holding the black oily leather whip in his hand.

There were some horsetails twisted in the whip, more than three feet long, and the arms were thick.

As Guo Jixiu began to leak, he whipped the woman who was tied naked on the wooden frame like crazy, the woman was stuffed with a peach in her mouth, and she was tightened with a strip of cloth, so she could only whine and howl miserably, and tears flowed downward. The thick gynostemma whip was soaked in tung oil and human oil and sweat, black and bright, and it was stained with blood in a few moments, and it was pumped on the snow-white and trembling **, and it was even more crackling, and the terrible sound echoed in the cellar, extremely mad!

Wei Guofu triumphantly collected his troops here, returned to the garrison yamen with great ambition, and immediately ordered his own soldiers to lead the mule cart to send the third sister to Yao Fan's shop.

Wei Guofu himself ran into his room in the backyard of the yamen, took out a large vermilion lacquer box more than a foot wide from the bedside box, opened it, and counted the silver tickets accumulated in his hand. He hung cross-legged on the edge of the bed, and said to himself while counting the silver tickets: "I paid the Guo family 1,500 taels of ransom silver here, but it is a bit of a loss, and I have to tell Yao Fan about this account when I go back......

It is said that Yao Fan sent silver to Wei Guofu in the morning, and as soon as he came back to the store, He Wannian hurried over.

"Brother Yao, I heard that you had a dirty affair with the Guo family?"

Yao Fan said lightly: "I have already used the silver, and Wei Shoubei will help me ask for someone." ”

He Wannian persuaded Yao Fandao: "Brother Yao, as the old saying goes, the people don't fight with the officials, especially if we do business, we pay attention to harmony and wealth wherever we go." The Guo family has a deep connection with the officials, and the family has been an official for several dynasties, so why should the brother be angry with him for a woman. ”

Yao Fan feigned anger and said: "That Guo Jixiu is the current head of the Guo family, right?" He can climb on my head and today! Won't tomorrow kill me! In order not to be trampled to death by him, I spent money to find Lord Wei to administer justice, and this back and forth is really a big loss! If I didn't have to, why would I be so tough? Brother He, don't think I'm angry, I sue you, this matter is not simple. ”

Yao Fan felt that if he didn't say anything stricter, He Wannian probably wouldn't pay attention to it.

"Brother He, you think, as soon as our business opened, this surnamed Guo came to show me the color, obviously to test my softness and hardness, if I am soft, he will definitely come to get me, this is like two armies fighting, but you can't come up and lose."

He Wan began to hesitate, and whispered: "Isn't it for a woman?" Why is it like it's going to be endless......"

Yao Fan continued to preach: "Brother He, you have to learn to see the problem through the appearance, see the essence through the phenomenon, if it is really just a woman, why doesn't this surnamed Guo discuss with me and beg me to give it to him?" In this matter, the face is just a façade, and his real intention is to let me understand who has the final say here. ”

He Wannian's eyes lit up, as if he had heard something new, and he muttered a retelling: "Look at the problem through the appearance, see the essence through the phenomenon...... There is a lot of truth in that. ”
