Chapter 61: Two Old Men

Ximen Zhi, the head of the Ximen family, was waiting for Qiao Ye in a tavern in Xicheng in a cloth suit, which was a habit for many years. And he is used to coming first, ordering a plate of fried peanuts and two bowls of noodles. Start with a pot of rice wine. Later, Qiao Ye came over and brought a pack of Cao's braised pork.

Sure enough, as soon as the rice wine was served, the rice wine was scalded in the small wine jug. Qiao Ye came in with a lotus leaf bag, refused the pottery plate sent by Xiao Er, and untied the lotus leaf, using the lotus leaf as a plate, and the braised meat in the lotus leaf revealed a penetrating dark red.

Ximen poured Qiao Ye a glass of wine, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, took the wine glass and touched it gently, and took a sip together.

"I haven't seen you in five years, and it's no fun to drink!" Simon took a piece of meat and put it in his mouth, "It's so good, the taste hasn't changed at all." ”

"It's not interesting, but I want to change it a little." Qiao Ye smiled and tried his cheeks, "The boss has a hand." ”

"The boss is dead, and it's the son who takes over." Simon pointed inside.

Qiao Ye looked inside, and there was a young man on the edge of the noodle cooking stove.

"We're all old!" Qiao Ye sighed lightly.

"Are we friends?" Ximen looked straight at Qiao Ye.

Qiao Ye thought seriously for a moment and shook his head, "No." ”

"You're so ruthless!" Ximen Zhi poured himself a glass of wine and drank it slowly, "Then talk about the children, isn't my grandson good?" ”

"The Ximen family is not suitable for the Qiao family, of course, I also asked my granddaughter, she only remembers your grandson's sword." Qiao Ye shook his head.

"Sword?" Ximen was stunned for a moment and looked at Qiao Ye.

Dayong asked her what she thought of your grandson, and she drew a picture of a man in a red guard's uniform, but his face was blocked by his sword. By the way, there is also a beautiful sword spike on the sword. "Qiao Ye hasn't seen that painting, but I've heard his son say that he thought his granddaughter was a bit of a girl at the time.

Ximen opened his mouth and said urgently: "My grandson is not bad, right, upright and brave, he has been sent to the master to learn martial arts since he was a child, and he has almost not been influenced by the Ximen family." And your granddaughter is obviously like a child of your family, and she is a good hand at solving crimes. They are together, and the Ximen family and the Qiao family are perfectly matched in prison. ”

"Do you like my granddaughter, or do you like her to solve cases?" Qiao Ye looked up at Ximen Zhi.

"I like that she can solve crimes, and my grandson should like your granddaughter." Simon is very straightforward.

"My granddaughter is a little weird, she just talks to Dayong and An An, and she doesn't have anything to say to me; I heard that it was also at the scene, and only one pair of eyes were exposed all over the body. I can't say that in the future, I may be like my eldest daughter-in-law, in addition to playing with children, just reading books. Qiao Ye said calmly.

"It was chosen by Kai'er, and I trust his vision." Simon shook his head.

"I don't believe it, I'd rather believe in Dayong's vision, find an obedient one for Qingqing, and hold her in the palm of my hand to protect her." Qiao Ye poured wine for Ximenzhi, and stretched out his hand to make people noodles. Neither of them was originally the kind of person who loved to drink, and two glasses of rice wine per person were enough to drive away the cold on their bodies. Freshly boiled noodles, served with a soup of the saki, tossed and eaten hot. Of course, it also said that this is the end of their topic for today.

Simon glared at him, drank the rice wine, and ate the noodles slowly.

"Old boy, do you really think they're inappropriate?" After the noodles were eaten, he still couldn't help but look at Qiao Ye.

"Yes!" Qiao Ye nodded.

"Isn't it because the boss asked Zhen Niang for marriage before? At that time, I really didn't know that Dayong and Zhenniang had already been in love. Simon couldn't help but say again.

"Don't talk nonsense, the boss doesn't dare to think about the eldest lady of the Shi family. At the beginning, your family forced Yang Jinshi to hang himself, so my son was angry and stole his own Geng Ti to Yang Jinshi. At that time, he had never seen Zhenniang. The old man shook his head, thought about it and sneered, "Even if the retired poor Hanlin is not worth anything, he didn't say that he let his daughter be a concubine." If the eldest son of your family dares to throw down the dowry, he will let people set a date. ”

"Alas! That boss has done the most ...... in his life It can be regarded as a time when he is angry with the book! You know, I know, beat him up and change to a second child. Unexpectedly, the second child didn't make it. Simon let out a long sigh, wanting to call for another pot of wine, "Kai'er is not bad, you have been in contact with him for all these years, you should know him." ”

"Well, it's my granddaughter who doesn't like it, she doesn't want to, understand? Dayong never told her what happened back then. He didn't say anything about his attitude towards this matter, in principle, as long as Qingqing likes it, Dayong will not object. Qiao Ye gave him a roll of the eyes, when Qiao Dayong stole his Geng post and handed it to the Yang family, Qiao Ye actually beat Qiao Dayong hard, there is no such thing.

Of course, after the beating, he re-entrusted the official media and seriously handled the dowry. solemnly proposed to the Yang family. Of course, after these were done, he also made the first and only appointment with Ximen Zhi.

reported this, and by the way, as just now, mocked Ximen Nao's failure to educate his eldest son. A lawyer who was a teacher of the country and the law of the country was forced to marry the daughter of an official as a concubine. It's really going to be a mess, even if it's the Ximen family, I'm afraid it will be a little troublesome. So sixteen years ago, Ximen Zhi, who was about to go to the Criminal Department to study, was beaten by his father, and the person who went to the Criminal Department became Ximen Zai.

It's been sixteen years since this happened, but I didn't expect that Ximenzhi's son and Zhenniang's daughter would have this bad fate again.

When Simon got the letter directly to Lord Tie, he called Simon Zhi and asked him if Simon had written to them. Unexpectedly, Ximen Zhi, who was depressed sixteen years ago, was very strongly opposed this time. He didn't say the reason, but opposition is opposition.

Ximen Zhi didn't want to talk nonsense with his eldest son, who was yin and yang weird sixteen years ago, so he directly ordered to enter Beijing immediately, and wrote to his second son, asking him to go to Qiao's house for employment. Of course, these words need to be told to Qiao Ye, he just wants to fight for his grandson again.

"Does that mean that as long as Qingqing agrees, you won't object?"

"Yes!" Qiao Ye thought for a moment and nodded.

"Then go and talk to Qingqing once, you old guy are not allowed to stop you." Simon smiled, straightened up, and looked confident.

Qiao Ye slapped his buttocks, put his hands behind his back, and slowly walked towards the yamen. He didn't pay attention to Ximen at all, but Ximen Zhi understood that Qiao Ye had already agreed.

Ximen Zhi shook his head, and walked through a street intersection by himself, where Ximen's car was waiting there, and for Ximen Zhi, Qiao's family was his strange soldier. Even if he arrives at the Criminal Department and has something to find Qiao Ye, he can only help if it is on the boundary of Kaifeng Mansion.

Now that Qiao Ye is relieved, as long as he lets his grandson work hard, the Qiao family's power in Kaifeng Mansion can really be used by the Ximen family. This is what he is most excited about! As for whether Qingqing will investigate the case, he really doesn't care at all.
