Coming out of the medical hall, Nie Erlang reprimanded the Yu family, if this was in his hometown, the Yu family would definitely have to fight with Nie Erlang again, but this was in the capital, she could only endure it silently.

Nie Chengcai's arm was better, and he was much more energetic, he asked Nie Erlang: "Dad, we were kicked out by my aunt, where are we going now?" ”

Yu Shi tugged at his ear and said, "Little rabbit cub, if it weren't for you, would we have been kicked out, why would you provoke that money-losing goods?" ”

"Mother, it hurts." Nie Chengcai bared his teeth and shouted.

Yu Shi let go of his hand at this time, and Nie Chengcai said: "It's not that I blame my cousin for being too good-looking, I've never seen such a good-looking woman when I'm so old, if only she could marry me." ”

Yu Shi glanced at his son again, "You're still dreaming of the Spring and Autumn Festival, if you have the ability to marry her, our family of three won't be kicked out." ”

Nie Chengcai didn't dare to say anything anymore.

A family of three can't just hang around the street all the time, so stay, and the money on them is not enough to cover the cost of living in the hotel. Back to Yucheng County, I didn't even have a coil. Yu Shi and Nie Erlang were so worried that their hair was almost white.

At this time, Yu suddenly remembered something, she skimmed her husband's arm, leaned in and said, "Do you remember the Fan family maid who gave the rattle to Chengcai back then?" ”

Nie Erlang looked at her suspiciously, "How many years has this been the old yellow calendar, why are you mentioning this?" As soon as he thought of the rattle with the scab, he felt a chill in his heart.

Yu Shi said with a calculating face: "If it weren't for the girl who took the rattle and let Chengcai bring it back, where would your sister fall out with the family, and how could we be kicked out." No, the maid must be held responsible. ”

Nie Erlang looked at her like a fool, and Yu glared at him dissatisfied, "What, did I say something wrong?" She said: "I heard that the surnamed Ling is also an official in the capital, let's go to his mansion to find out the maid and ask her to give us a hush money, otherwise we will stab her and her master out of the assassination of people." Look at whether the surname Ling still has a reputation. ”

"Can you do that?" Nie Erlang was a little unconvinced, "It's been so long, what if the maid doesn't admit it, but says that we blackmailed her?" ”

This is indeed a problem, and Yu Shi is not as excited as before.

After thinking about it for a long time and having no other way, Yu Shi simply didn't want to, "If it can be done, let's try it." ”

In order to survive, Nie Erlang had to listen to his wife. The three of them inquired in the capital for several days, and all the money on them was spent, before they finally found out where the Ling family was.

Nie Erlang knocked on the closed vermilion door under the gaze of his wife and children, and soon someone came to open the door.

"Who should I be, it turns out that there are three people named Hanako." The porter looked at them disdainfully, "If you want to beg for food, don't be an eyesore here." ”

The three of them have been sleeping on the streets for several days, and they look really embarrassed, but they don't look like Hanako.

This was obviously said deliberately by the porter, Yu was about to go crazy on the spot, Nie Erlang stopped her, and said to the porter in a good voice: "Big brother, we are not begging, we are here to find someone." ”

The porter squinted at him and said, "Who are you looking for?" ”

"Let's find a maid named Mei Zhi." Nie Erlang replied.

The porter listened, "There is no maid named Plum Branch, so go and look for it elsewhere." ”

After that, the door is about to close.

Yu Shi rushed to him quickly, "How could it not be, her master's name is Fan Jin, and she is Fan Jin's personal maid." ”

Yu Shi didn't know where to get such a big hand, the doorkeeper was hindered from closing the door, and said angrily: "What you said is Mei Guanshi, our wife's right-hand man, seeing that you don't seem to know her like this, hurry up and get out of me." ”

Yu Shi and Nie Erlang glanced at each other, and they both saw joy in each other's eyes. I didn't expect Mei Zhi to mix so well, there must be a lot of silver on him, and he can make a lot of money this time.

Nie Erlang said: "Trouble the eldest brother to bring her a message, just say that the old people from Yucheng County have come to her." If she asked who it was, the eldest brother would say that his surname was Nie, and he came to the rattle more than ten years ago. ”

The porter saw that what he said was well-grounded, and thought to himself, could these three people really be the old acquaintance of Steward Mei? Thinking of this, his attitude was a little better, "You guys are waiting here, I'll go in and ask." ”

"Hey, okay, thank you." Nie Erlang smiled and nodded.

Mei Zhi was serving Fan Jin, and the little maid came to report: "Steward Mei, there are three people from outside the house, saying that they are your old acquaintances, and Uncle Wen asked if you know each other?" ”

Mei Zhi is very puzzled, she is the son of the Fan family, she has been serving by the master's side since she was a child, and her father and mother have always been on the Zhuangzi, where do you know people outside the house.

"I don't know them, let Uncle Wen drive them away."

The little maid said again: "Uncle Wen said that the three people are surnamed Nie, and it seems that they are here to return some rattle." ”

The words surnamed Nie and rattle fell into the ears of Mei Zhi and Fan Jin, and the past immediately came to mind. Mei Zhi looked cautiously at Fan Jin and called out to Mrs.

"You go see them and see what they want?" Fan Jin frowned and ordered.

Umeeda answered and immediately went to the front yard.

At the gate of the Ling Mansion, Yu Shi and Nie Chengcai were waiting impatiently, and at this time, Mei Zhi finally came out.

As soon as she saw Nie Erlang and the others, she looked carefully several times before recognizing them, "Why don't you go to Jiang's house, why are you coming to me?" ”

Nie Erlang was about to speak, but was preempted by the Yu family, "We naturally have an important matter to find you." ”

Her eyes glanced at Uncle Wen who was standing aside, "It's not easy for others to know about this matter, you better find another place, let's talk about it." ”

It was really not appropriate for people to know about this, and Mei Zhi led them to a secluded alley.

"Tell me, what the hell are you trying to do?" She asked.

Yu Shi smiled, took out a worn-out rattle from his baggage, held it in his hand and shook it, "I don't know if you still recognize this thing?" ”

Mei Zhi's eyes were fixed on the rattle, and he suddenly smiled, "I don't know where to pick up the rags, how can I know them." ”

The smug look on Yu's face was gone, "Do you think that if you don't admit it, you can erase the fact that you used a rattle stained with acne scabs to assassinate my niece?" ”

Mei Zhi's face sank, "I haven't done it, don't wronged a good person." ”

Not to be outdone, Yu Shi said: "I, you are also a good person?" You are like your shameless master, your heart is darker than the bottom of the pot. I still don't admit the fact that I have done it, okay, then let's tear our faces. In less than three days, the people on the street will know the virtues of you and your master, and when the time comes, I will see that the surname Ling will be shameless. ”

"You dare." Mei Zhi was angry, "If you dare to go out and say a word, don't want to get out of the capital alive." ”

Yu Shi was stunned in his heart, but his face still looked like he was not afraid of heaven and earth, "You are a slave and maid, I am a good citizen, I don't believe you dare to harm us." ”

Seeing that Mei Zhi was about to speak, Yu Shi said again: "Don't think that the old lady surnamed Ling will be afraid of him, and he is not afraid of wearing shoes with bare feet." If we have three longs and two shorts, someone will go to the yamen to cry out for us, and then not only will your master's reputation be ruined, but the Jiang family will not let you go. ”

Yu's words made Mei Zhi have scruples, and Fan Jin repeatedly explained that now is the critical moment of the general election, and there must be no mistakes. She asked, "What are your conditions?" ”

"It's very simple, we want five hundred taels of silver, tell my son about good family affairs in the capital, and then find us a place to live." Yu Shi said politely.

Hearing this, Mei Zhi secretly scolded Yu for being shameless, and she said: "I can't be the master of your conditions, I want to go back and report to my wife." ”

When Yu Shi proposed the conditions, she knew that Mei Zhi would definitely not be able to do this, and she wanted Mei Zhi to give Fan Jin a message.

Mei Zhi went back with her consent, and when she came out again, she said: "My wife said that she can agree to your conditions, but you have to write a letter of guarantee that you will never come to us again after taking the money this time, and bring the secret of the rattle to the coffin." ”

"Of course, as long as you agree to those conditions, we will keep it a secret." Yu Shi and Nie Erlang assured.

Umeeda smiled, "Come with me." ”

So the three members of the Nie family followed Mei Zhi away, and they were overjoyed that a large sum of money was about to arrive, and they didn't see the sneer oozing from the corner of Mei Zhi's mouth at all.
