The news that the horse thief was exterminated by the Sun family soon spread.

At first, the people in the county town didn't believe it, after all, Ma Dahu had been entrenched in the mountains around the county town for decades, and the officers and soldiers had organized manpower several times, but they didn't even see a shadow of people.

But when Ma Dahu's body was hung on the city wall, everyone believed it.

What surprised everyone even more was that next to Ma Dahu's corpse, there were still three corpses of the Zhao family brothers.

The Zhao brothers are accomplices of horse thieves!

The news spread throughout the city. Everyone pointed the finger at the Zhao family.

"No wonder every time the government sends troops, Ma Dahu dodges it, it turns out that the Zhao family reports the news."

"Down with the Zhao family, down with the Zhao family."

"Since the Zhao family brothers are accomplices, their father Zhao Wu will not know that they must also be accomplices."

The people speculated that the government did not dare to slack off, and the county ordered Yu Qing to send officers and soldiers to surround the Zhao family at the first time.

In order to ensure the success of the operation, Wang Zhong agreed to the county order Yu Qing and sent thirty of them to guard the Sun family.

"Master Wang, thank you for your help this time." Outside the Zhao family, the county ordered Yu Qing to thank him.

This county order is called Yu Qing, although he is not a good official, but the horse thief is such a big thing, he does not dare to accept the Zhao family's wallet.

"It is everyone's duty to eliminate harm for the people, and Yu County's order is too polite."

Wang Zhong smiled and continued: "This Zhao family is obviously the mastermind behind the horse thief, this time the mastermind behind the arrest of the horse thief in the county order, in terms of merit, you occupy the first, if you add an official to the county order in the future, please don't forget our Sun family." ”

"Hahaha......"

Hearing the words of the addition of an official to the knight, Yu County Ling laughed and nodded with satisfaction.

Everyone is a scene person, how can he not hear Wang Chong's words, Wang Chong is equivalent to giving him the great merit of catching the horse thief, and helping the government solve such a big problem, he will definitely be promoted, there is no doubt about this.

While recording Wang Chong's words in his heart, Yu County Ling also changed his opinion of Wang Chong.

I used to think that he was just a scholar who ate soft rice and was useless, but now it seems that people are hiding it deeply, at least it is very good.

……

"Wang Erping, you killed my three sons and ruined my family, I will not let you go even if I am a ghost!!"

In Zhao's mansion, Zhao Wu's heart-rending roar was heard.

At this moment, he was full of remorse, he originally thought that Wang Chong was a useless scholar, but he didn't expect the Sun family to grow stronger and stronger in his hands, he regretted it, regretted being an enemy of Wang Chong!!

Zhao Wu finally committed suicide, and the family and maids in the house were sent out one by one.

As for his family, they were all killed by Zhao Wu at the last moment.

Zhao Wu can't help it, once the crime of the horse thief is verified, not to mention the nine clans, the women in the family will be sent to Changji, and he naturally doesn't want to see his family like that.

Watching the corpses being carried out, Wang Chong's face was expressionless, and his heart was unwavering.

Is it cruel?

He doesn't think that this society is a jungle society, whether it is ancient or modern, the kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself!

In terms of the Zhao family's money, it was naturally confiscated, and even the imperial court came in person to transport the money away.

There is no way, the two northern provinces are in rebellion, the front-line soldiers, horses, and grain and grass are seriously tight, and the imperial court is now short of money.

…………

A month later, Yu Qing was really promoted to governor.

Wang Chong rewarded thousands of acres of land because of his merit in exterminating horse thieves.

In the county, every household knows Wang Chong's deeds, and everyone knows that the son-in-law of the Sun family is a big hero, and it is he who solves the horse thieves around the county.

I don't know who gave Wang a nickname, the big hero Master Wang, this title has lasted for many years.

Three years later, the Sun family's industry expanded across the board, especially the farmers who rented the Sun family's fields, and the output was higher than that of others.

As for the imperial court, the crown prince ascended the throne and worked hard to finally suppress the two rebellious provinces, and peace was restored to the country.

When Wang Zhong was thirty years old, his son Sun Wenlong had already followed Sun Jitian and started to dance with guns and sticks, and Sun Xiuxiu was happy again.

In this regard, Wang Chong said that everything was an accident, and that night, he and Sun Xiuxiu ......

A year later, Sun Xiuxiu gave birth to a daughter, Wang Chong found that he liked his daughter more, at Sun Xiuxiu's suggestion, Wang Chong took the name this time, and obtained his surname, so he named his daughter, Wang Duoduo.

Five years later, Sun Wenlong was fifteen years old, and he liked to dance with guns and sticks since he was a child, and under the leadership of Sun Jitian, he went to other provinces to learn martial arts.

"Wenlong, listen to your uncle outside, and don't argue with others."

Seeing that her son was going to go far away, Sun Xiuxiu's eyes were red.

Wang Chong's face was still expressionless, he sat on the main seat and drank tea calmly, and said: "Kung fu is not the main thing, you take the two flintlock pistols well, often learn how to disassemble, you have to learn how to aim, you know?" ”

After speaking, he also sighed.

When Sun Wenlong was a child, he tried to teach him to learn liberal arts and sciences, but unfortunately, this child, like his uncle, was a master who liked to dance with knives and guns.

"Don't worry, Erping, sister, I will be optimistic about him, if this kid dares to mess around, I will kill him." Sun Jitian, who only had one hand left, said heartily.

The five-year-old daughter sitting in Wang Chong's arms blinked her eyes and looked extremely curious.

Another five years have passed, and through the introduction of the matchmaker, his son Sun Wenlong married the daughter of the magistrate, and the two are in and out of pairs, and the relationship is very good.

Daughter Wang Duoduo is ten years old, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, although she is still young, she is still the same as Sun Xiuxiu back then, she looks cute and has a delicate personality.

At night, Wang Chong looked at his gray hair in the bronze mirror and felt a little emotional.

As the saying goes, stand at thirty, and don't be confused at forty.

In the blink of an eye, forty years have passed.

The development of the Sun family is getting better and better, and with the help of his father-in-law, Sun Wenlong also entered the military camp and became a military camp commander.

What was originally a small county town has now become a big city.

It's just that I've also entered middle age.

"Master, do you want to take a concubine?" Seeing Wang Zhong looking in the mirror, Sun Xiuxiu came from the side of the bed.

Today's Sun Xiuxiu has also changed from a slim girl to a middle-aged woman.

Due to poor maintenance in ancient times, it looks like it has a lot of wrinkles and is very old-fashioned.

"Why did Madame say this?"

"The masters of other families are married at least three rooms and four concubines, so that people can prosper, if you want to, take a concubine, I recently helped you see, the housekeeper's daughter Cui'er is seventeen, she looks very standard, and the youngest daughter of the chef in the back kitchen of the restaurant, Liu'er, is fifteen years old."

"Madam, needless to say, I don't have this idea of taking a concubine."

Wang Zhong put down the bronze mirror, "Go to bed." ”

"But sir, I'm already old, and I can't serve you well." Sun Xiuxiu undressed Wang Zhong and said with emotion: "Master, I know your good, it's for my sake, but I think you still have to think more about yourself and think about it." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the maid outside suddenly knocked on the door: "Old lady, no, Grandma Chen just coughed suddenly, cough cough...... Coughed up blood. ”

The maid said anxiously, and even coughed herself.
