This is the matter that has been tentatively settled.

***

The leader of the guards with dozens of guards stood outside the door of Lao Xu's house like statues for two days.

The behavior was also very polite, he was hungry all day and didn't move, he didn't look for food, and he didn't urge Liao Qing.

Just standing there motionless.

At first glance, it is a group of people who are elite soldiers and have been trained hard.

The old Xu family couldn't see it, Xu Zhang's steamed some more steamed buns, gave them some, they accepted, but gave Xu Zhang's silver taels.

The steamed buns in a steamer were given ten taels of silver, but Xu Zhang's didn't accept them, so they didn't accept them.

Xu Zhang's impression of them changed slightly, and he gave them a few more steamers.

Xu Jiaojiao and Liao Qing thought about it for two days and decided to go to Du's house to have a look.

"Anyway, we plan to go to Beijing to study in the next two days to catch the exam, so we can go to Du's house to see the situation. If you want to do something to us, it is more convenient to be in the countryside, and blindly avoiding is not the solution to the problem. Xu Jiaojiao said.

Liao Qing nodded, "Since you're going, let's get ready to settle down." ”

Xu Jiaojiao said, "The matter of my wine shop is almost over, we don't have to worry about it, the second brother and the fifth brother can do it, and they can exchange letters once a month, and urgent letters can be passed on with carrier pigeons." Before going to Beijing, I thought about whether to go and resign to Deng Dadaotou, and I also had to notify the Huichun Hall, and the He family firm also had to give an explanation, and then write a letter to my father-in-law, and He Yanxi...... Do you see what else is arranged? ”

"The lady has thought it through, you can arrange it."

Xu Jiaojiao said again, "Your master Deng Da Dart has been a dart master in the capital for many years, and he must be familiar with the area of the capital. When the time comes, there will be a degree of advance and retreat, so as not to be too passive. ”

Money is something outside of the body, but it is impossible to do without it.

The water depth of the Du family, I don't know what the situation is, I first bought a house in the capital and had a place to live.

When the time comes, it will be great to live in your own home, and it will be boring not to go to Dufu, if you can be safe.

Liao Qing said, "Okay, my master has carrier pigeons in their dart bureau, and they can fly pigeons to pass on books, even if he doesn't go to the capital, he is also well-informed with the information in the capital, and he should be able to entrust him to watch the house." ”

The next step is to arrange various things.

Although he had planned it, Liao Qing did not easily agree to the head of the guard, and negotiated with him about the conditions.

"If you want me to go, I asked to talk to Liao Changsheng alone, I see that his condition is not very good, what is the reason, let him be like this, I need to understand it clearly."

The main thing is to ask about the basic situation of the Du family, he is so mentally prepared or something.

The leader of the guards was silent for a moment, "Yes, but Liao Changsheng has already returned to the capital, he is not in good health, he must go to the capital to extend medical treatment, eldest young master, if you have anything to ask, it is the same to ask me directly, or go to the capital, I will arrange for you to meet again." ”

This is quite frank, but why didn't Liao Changsheng stay alone to talk to them before?

In the final analysis, I still want Liao Qing to have to go to Du's house in the capital.

"Okay, you can tell us about the situation of your Du family, we have a bottom in our hearts."

Xu Jiaojiao was also beside her, and the leader of the guards looked a little hesitant.

"This is my daughter-in-law, if you want to go to the capital, my daughter-in-law will go with me, what do you have to say, we are husband and wife, there is nothing to hide."

A hint of strangeness flashed in the eyes of the head of the guards, and then he spoke, "Young Master, what do you want to know?" Which aspect? ”

Xu Jiaojiao smiled and said, "In all aspects, the leader of the labor and annoyance is more detailed, how many people are in the family, how many generations there are, Master Du's current official position, who is the current wife in charge, what is the background of the lady's maiden family, how many young masters are there, how many young ladies are there, how many slaves, and even what the industry is, what the economic situation is, I hope to tell you everything I can say, I am tired." ”

Suddenly, the leader of the guards put away his inadvertent contempt for Xu Jiaojiao.

Is this ordinary village girl in the countryside so shrewd and powerful?

Looking at her carefully, I think about it, from the first time I saw her, this girl has always been calm and clear, smiling, and without any emotion, as soon as he told Liao Qing's true identity, everyone was shocked, this girl didn't seem to have it.

Either he is a facial paralysis, or he is a person who controls his emotions to the maximum, so he is calm and calm.

These little couples don't look like ordinary countrymen!

Just this cultivation kung fu and bearing, it is more fanlike than the young lady from everyone.

Thinking deeply, thinking far-sightedly, he is not a fool who can suffer losses, nor is he a fool.

Because there is a precedent for Liao Changsheng there, the head of the guard thinks that Liao Qing is also a rural villager, similar to Liao Changsheng, he is the kind of shallow person who has no connotation, has short knowledge, is shocked, and cannot be stabilized.

Unexpectedly, again and again, it broke his cognition.

Under the burning gaze of the two, he said everything he could say in detail.

At the end, Xu Jiaojiao asked, "Chief of the guard, how did Liao Changsheng's parents die?" ”

The leader of the guards was silent for a moment, "Thanks to the two of you, just call me a Hu guard." You may not believe it, but Liao Changsheng's parents hanged themselves. Because Liao Changsheng pretended to be the son of the Du family, greedy for glory and wealth, the two elders were worried day and night, and Liao Changsheng's identity was suspected later, and his health was not good, so the two elders went to expose Liao Changsheng, and then, hanged himself at the door of Du's house, begging the Du family to let Liao Changsheng have a way to live......"

Xu Jiaojiao sighed in her heart.

What a wickedness this is!

She had seen the two old couples of the Liao family, and they were an old couple who bought their land at that time, and they were very kind.

It is said that they are old and have children, not to mention, Liao Changsheng is still developed outside, and he wants to take them out to enjoy happiness, even if they are not willing to give up the family's land and a few acres of land, they will happily sell it to find their son.

As a result, what kind of torture did the old couple go through, so they couldn't think about it and died in a foreign country.

Liao Qing was also moved, not knowing what he was thinking.

The things that should be understood are also clearly understood, and then there is no further delay, one by one, ready to leave for the capital.

Even if the Du family doesn't come, Xu Jiaojiao and Liao Qing are going to the capital to study and catch the exam, and now the Du family is coming to pick them up, so they don't have to go to find the cars and horses, and there are special cars and horses waiting all the way to the capital, which saves time and trouble.
