After Jin Shan got out of Mingyi's house, he asked the coachman to drive out of the alley and on the road, and saw from a distance that there were still many people around the outside of the Ma family's house, and there was a lot of noise, and there was everything.

After a while, another person quietly walked over, came to Jinshan's car, bent over, and said quite respectfully, "Miss Jin." ”

"How's it going over there?" Before the curtain was opened, Jinshan already knew who was coming.

The man looked back at the illuminated gate, and then said to Jinshan, "The three families are still crying outside the house, saying that they want to see Wang Siming and ask the master for an explanation, my father should not last long, waiting for countermeasures inside." Later, some other relatives came, and you also know that most of the tea gardens are related to the past, and there are many people. ”

"Is there anyone from the government?"

"I came once in the afternoon, but I didn't come again, I should go to Wang Dong's house. I heard that the corpse was so badly damaged that it was almost impossible to see the original appearance, and it was also miserable. It was said that the coming boat had an accident, and the life and death were unknown, so it was okay to lose some money, and then the body was found on the edge of the dock, and I don't know what to do. ”

Ahem, it was the time of the change of seasons, and even the always healthy Jinshan coughed, and after a while, he asked the people outside the car, "What about the long sale?" What's he doing. ”

Xiao Qiang, who was outside the car, was stunned for a moment, and then said after a while, "Young Master Pinyuan went to find Wang Dong's house, and he hasn't come back yet." ”

Jin Shan knew the situation, opened the curtain and handed a brocade bag to Xiao Qiang, and said, "I'm tired." ”

Xiao Qiang didn't pick it up, but saluted again, bowed his head and said, "Miss Jin knows what Xiao Qiang is doing this for, so please take it back." ”

Jin Shan put the bag back, lowered the curtain again, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and said, "You are a good plan, it depends on whether there is any blessing to bear." ”

"It's something I will, whether it happens or not."

"I hope so." After Jinshan finished speaking, he asked the coachman to drive home.

Xiao Qiang stayed here for a while, and then returned to the courtyard of the Ma family, and was just running into Pin Yuan who was also coming back from outside, saw Xiao Qiang, and asked, "Did the people you sent out find my third brother?" ”

"The people sent to guard the south of the city still say that there is no news, and Wang Dongjia is not in Bihua Pavilion?" Xiao Qiang deliberately got closer and said to Pinyuan.

Pinyuan, who has always been unaware of the taste of sorrow, was also worried at this time, frowning, pacing back and forth, as if he was talking to himself, "Ah Wu said, when the third brother came back from the west of the city in his carriage, he broke him away, and within an hour, I also went to look for him, but I was not at home. When I arrived, I took a carriage to Bihua Pavilion, there was no carriage, and the third brother's foot strength couldn't reach that side, so I went to Bihua Pavilion and pounced, and there was no one in the eastern suburbs, so where would he go. ”

Pin Yuan couldn't think of a reason, and asked Xiao Qiang again, "The people you sent really haven't seen the third brother go home until now?" This shouldn't be, even if it's a banquet at such a late hour, it should almost come back. Could it be that you went to the west of the city to discuss business again, and you will send someone to the west of the city to have a look. ”

Xiao Qiang saw that Pin Yuan had to go through trouble to find someone, so he simply stepped forward and whispered to Pin Yuan, "Maybe the Wang Dong family has already heard some rumors and left the city, Young Master Pin Yuan should go to the hall first, the master is waiting for you." ”

"I won't go, they won't care about the third brother's life or death at all, they don't care about me, won't even you help me? I asked you to send someone to the west of the city to find someone, and you should hurry up, and I will go to his house later. "Pinyuan has really hit enough walls today, and I can't do it too much.

Xiao Qiang sighed and said in a low voice, "It's not that I don't help you. "Turned around and went out again, after a cup of tea, he came back and said to Pinyuan, "Everyone has been sent out, Young Master Pinyuan is really good for Wang Dong's family, and it is time to go to the hall to sit down, the old man is angry, and he will only be angry with Wang Dongjia." ”

"I naturally know, I'll go first and take a look, wait for you to give me a look outside, I'll come out, you don't have to be afraid of anything, if anything happens, I'll take care of it." Like a headless fly, Pinyuan finally returned to the hall.

Ma Bin's face was naturally not good, but it could be regarded as dark, looking at Pinyuan, he didn't say a word.

After a while, Lin Liang on the side seemed to understand the meaning, lowered his head, and said to Pin Yuan, "Young Master Yuan, the matter outside is still waiting for you to come and get an idea." ”

Pin Yuan has always disliked this person, but at this time, seeing that he was smiling and not smiling, he came over flatteringly, and was already a little unhappy, so he put his head aside and said, "What do you think, let's talk about it." ”

Lin Liang smiled and said, "Since those people want to find Wang Siming, I will point out a way for them, there is a grievance, there is a debtor, and they won't be bothered at the door if they find it." ”

"What does it mean to have injustice and hatred, and there is a debtor, they are in trouble doing things for my family, and the master is also the master of my family, what is the matter with Wang Siming. You are really a rat-eyed, you will instigate people to push outside when something happens, who will dare to do things for my Ma family in the future, and who will still pick tea for my Ma family wholeheartedly! ”

Lin Liang spread his hands and said, "That's also what they want to find by themselves, and the truth is only over there, why should Young Master Pinyuan be angry with me, it's better to let the person concerned appear quickly, solve this matter, and keep causing trouble to the owner, he is not ashamed, anyway, I can't do this thing." ”

"You..." As soon as he had an accident, he left things clean up, didn't want to argue with him, crossed Lin Liang, and said directly to Ma Bin, "Dad, you believe me, this is definitely not what the third brother did, we can't hand him over." ”

"What are you going to do with those tea farmers?" Ma Bin finally spoke.

Pin Yuan snorted, didn't say anything for a while, and finally made up his mind and said, "What's the matter, let them come at me." ”

"Bastard! Get out, this is my tea garden, it's not your turn to hand it over. I raised you for eighteen years, not to raise a son of evil who eats inside and out. ”

When he learned that these three guys died for the sake of their own tea gardeners, they also sent people to inquire along the river, and they wanted to see people in life and corpses in death, and they always had to give an explanation to these tea farmers.

It's just that now the government found the body first, and it was a preconceived thought that it was a homicide, so it made such a fuss, and in the end, he still believed Siming, and felt that these three guys were killed on the road. It's just... It's just that Pinyuan didn't notice that his father and third brother had something to hide from him, which was far less simple than it seemed on the surface.

···

When he was young, his health was very poor, and he often had to ask a doctor to come to his home for treatment, and after treating his wife, he had to give the young master another diagnosis and treatment, and the decoction of the mother and son never stopped. Until her mother finally couldn't get up from the hospital bed, opened her white lips, and said to Pinyuan, "You have to live well, your father only has you." ”

At that time, Pinyuan was also seriously ill, and even the doctor didn't know if he could survive the New Year, but in the end he survived the New Year, and lived another year, two years... When he was eight or nine years old, he was no different from an ordinary healthy child, but at that time he rarely interacted with outsiders, and only clinged to Steward Xiao.

When he was ten years old, Pinyuan went to his own tea mountain for the first time, and followed his father with a twist, only showing a pair of eyes to see these strangers.

The tea farmers on the mountain had not yet seen the little proprietor, so they amused him, and when they saw his shy appearance, they laughed even more, and because he was fairer and more lovely than the little girl, they laughed that he was a woman raised in the boudoir. Pinyuan was even more embarrassed, but he didn't dare to say anything, and he just smiled at his father and didn't help him justify.

After everyone got together and had breakfast, the tea farmers stopped laughing, put on their hats, and went up the mountain to pick tea with baskets on their backs. Ma Bin asked Pinyuan to change into tea-picking clothes and follow them to have a look, but Pinyuan was not allowed to move the tea.

Pinyuan was afraid of being laughed at again, so he went to the innermost room and changed his clothes. When he came back, there was a not very tall guy standing next to his father, and he could only see a pair of black eyes under the hat, looking at Pin Yuan uprightly.

When he heard that his father asked him to take Pin Yuan to take a look, the guy didn't say anything, but just looked at Pin Yuan for a while before he stretched out his hand to Pin Yuan and signaled that he wanted to lead Pin Yuan away.

Pinyuan thought that he also regarded himself as a little girl, so he put aside his hand and insisted on not doing it. But the guy stretched out his hand again, and even his father was silent, so he couldn't help it, so he had to hold hands and follow him.

The road to Chashan is very tortuous, and Pinyuan is secretly glad that he is not willful to the end, otherwise this mountain road will not be able to climb. The guy didn't go very fast, and he would occasionally stop and wait for a long time, so when the two of them arrived at the tea mountain, others had already picked a lot of tea.

Only then did he turn his head to Pin Yuan and say, "You follow me, don't run away." ”

Only then did Pin Yuan notice that his voice was still very young, not much older than himself, and in a moment the person was much shorter, and then Pin Yuan looked at the people around him, and noticed that he was a few points shorter than the average tea farmer.

He picked the tea quickly, and the back basket was full in less than half an hour, so he asked Pin Yuan to wait for him in the same place, he went to put the tea and came again, and handed the kettle on his body to Pin Yuan to drink when he left.

The sun became more and more vicious, and Pin Yuan felt that he had been waiting for a long time, so he rushed over, without a basket behind him, and said to Pin Yuan, "Let's go back, my uncle asked someone to call me back." ”

Pinyuan was a little disappointed, but he had to go back with him. I thought he would take him to the hut at the foot of the mountain and leave, but he was still thinking about how to pass the time when his father came to pick him up.

He smiled and went to the old man who guarded the house to get the clothes that Pinyuan had changed, and drove the carriage from the stable, so that Pinyuan went up, and after sitting in the carriage, he put down the hat, and Pinyuan saw his appearance, much more handsome than other tea farmers, although he was a little tanned, but it looked better.

After that, he could often see him from a distance, and often corresponded with him, sending small objects to each other, often praising him in front of his father, and relying on him very much for everything.
