Chapter 719: Growing Forward (2)
After sending the landlord away, Master Li went to Shili Hutong to find Du Shiya to ask for an explanation.
Li Zheng sneered when he heard him coming.
When Master Li saw him, he said, "You didn't go out on business, when did you come back?" ”
Li Zheng looked at him and didn't speak.
Master Li had long been accustomed to his attitude, and immediately told him about the landlord coming to collect the house: "You hurry up and pay the rent, otherwise the landlord will kick us out." ”
Li Zheng sneered and said, "It's better to drive it out!" Back then, you kicked me out of the house, and I didn't care whether I lived or died, and now you also taste the taste of people being kicked out of the door. ”
Li Xin pulled down the thunderous Master Li and said, "Big brother, if we are really kicked out by the landlord, we can only move here to live with my sister-in-law." ”
He had already seen that his sister-in-law was unwilling to live with them. His mother was really right at the beginning, Li Zheng married a high-ranking girl and it was harmful to them, he didn't believe it at the time, and the result was really as her mother said. His sister-in-law didn't take them seriously at all, and she wasn't afraid of their threats at all.
When Master Li heard this, he said loudly: "Yes, if you don't let me live in, I will go to the yamen to sue you." ”
Li Zheng chuckled: "If you go to sue, I'll take off my official uniform." But Dad, if you cause me to lose my office, you are not afraid that the patriarch and uncle will tear you apart. ”
There are two people from their Li family and two officials, but the other person is a seven-rank county magistrate and is almost fifty years old, and he is not only a six-rank but also young. The higher his status, the people of other families in Jinzhou would not dare to provoke the people of the Li family at will, and even the people of the government would give them convenience within a certain range. But if he loses his office, not only will the benefits be lost, but the clansmen may also be bullied.
Therefore, if Master Li wants to make Li Zheng lose his office, he will offend the people of the entire clan.
Master Li's face changed slightly. Before he came to Beijing, the patriarch looked for him and said that if he dared to mess around in the capital, he would personally come to Beijing to escort him back. If you want to make too much trouble and affect Li Zheng's career, you will put him in the ancestral hall when the time comes.
The patriarch and the patriarch of the Li family had done such a thing before, so he also had scruples.
Li Xin's face changed slightly, but he quickly said, "Big brother, don't you want to care about your father and us?" ”
Li Zheng didn't roll his eyelids, and sneered: "What does it matter to me whether you are dead or alive?" But don't worry, Dad, when you die, I will prepare a first-class coffin for you, and then let you be buried in style. ”
The only thing that Master Li can threaten him is filial piety, and now Li Zheng is not even afraid of him suing the official, and nothing can restrain him.
Thinking of this, Master Li said: "It's okay to let me go back, you give me two thousand taels of pension money every year." ”
Li Zheng responded very happily this time: "Yes." ”
Without waiting for a smile on Old Master Li's face, he said again: "But you have to give me seventy percent of the family's property first." ”
Master Li jumped up: "Don't you think about it." Li Zheng: Let me tell you, if you don't give me pension money, I will follow you wherever you go. ”
Li Zheng didn't get angry, just smiled and said, "You can follow, I don't care." ”
This time, the negotiation between father and son ended in failure.
After Du Shiya found out, she said: "I just said that it is impossible for them to leave honestly? ”
Li Zheng said: "Don't worry, they don't have much money on them, and they won't be able to take it off for long." ”
"If they don't leave, they run to my door every day to make trouble, what should I do? And in doing so, our reputation is also ruined. Du Shiya said: "Ah Zheng, I don't know if it's feasible or not. ”
Du Shiya's method is simple and crude, that is, to tie up Li Xin or Wei.
Li Zheng shook his head and said, "It's not appropriate." If the government catches us and they confess to us, we will all be punished. ”
Let's not talk about whether the crime is punished or not, once he is arrested, his career will definitely be broken. finally climbed to this position, how could he lose a good future because of the scum of the Li family.
Du Shiya said: "It's not really a kidnapping ticket, it's just that they are caught and locked up, and then released after a day." Unless they are not afraid of death, but how many people in this world are not afraid of death! ”
Li Zheng still didn't agree: "If you are going to be caught by the government, you will cause a commotion." ”
"Don't worry about this, I'll pay someone to kidnap him. Those people are very trustworthy, and when they receive money, they will not only do our jobs well, but also help us keep our mouths shut. ”
After finishing speaking, Du Shiya said again: "Even if it really finds out to us, I'm not afraid, I'll just say that they almost caused me to have a miscarriage, and I will lock them up for a day to get angry." As long as no one is killed, this kind of domestic affairs will not be taken care of by the government. ”
Li Zheng asked suspiciously, "Who taught you this?" Is it Miss Lin? ”
Hearing this, Du Shiya was unhappy: "No one taught, I thought of it myself." ”
Li Zheng knew that she was telling the truth by looking at her expression, and he was really surprised by this.
Du Shiya pushed him down and asked, "Ah Zheng, what do you think of my method?" ”
"Are you sure the people we're looking for won't betray us?"
Du Shiya smiled and said: "You can rest assured about this, the other party is very honest, but the price is relatively high." ”
As long as she can let Wei's and them go back to Jinzhou, she will be willing to pay as much money as she wants.
Li Zheng asked with some confusion: "Where did you know these people?" ”
As a girl in the boudoir, how can she deal with those people who are of the same religion and nine streams.
Du Shiya shook her head and said, "This is a secret, you can't say it." ”
As soon as he heard this, Li Zheng knew that the person who knew these people was not picking her up, but someone else, and that person was the girl Lin nine times out of ten.
Li Zheng knew that Qingshu had helped Du Shiya many times, so he also believed that Qingshu would not betray their husband and wife: "This method is feasible, you let people do it!" ”
In the afternoon of the same day, Qingshu received a letter from Du Shiya and five silver tickets of one hundred taels.
After reading the letter, Qingshu smiled and said, "It's grown, it's good." ”
It's just a matter of a person, so he took out five hundred taels of silver, which is really wealthy.
Wei and Li Xin were reluctant to go back to Jinzhou, and the rent of this house was too expensive for them to rent, so Li Xin took his personal servant out to find a house.
I didn't even find a satisfactory one after looking for two days, and Li Xin returned in vain. Then on the way home, someone knocked him with a stick.
I didn't see him come back until dark, and Master Li and Wei were anxious. In the end, he couldn't wait any longer, so Master Li took two old servants out to look for it. But after looking for it all night, I didn't find it.
As soon as the morning dawned, Master Li and Wei Shi went to find Li Zheng and Du Shiya. When they arrived at Shili Hutong, they learned that Li Zheng had returned to the barracks, and only Du Shiya was at home.
Du Shiya only saw Master Li and locked Wei out of the door to prevent her from entering.
After listening to Master Li's words, Du Shiya said: "How do you know that he is missing, not running to a happy place?" ”
Old Man Li was so angry that he almost jumped up: "What nonsense are you talking about? Ah Xin is not such a person. ”
Du Shiya pursed her lips and said, "Then who knows!" ”
