Volume III-1 Early Spring in Jiangnan (XII) (Middle)

Early Spring in Gangnam (XII) (Middle)

Although the Dahe Gang has given Yumen a headache over the years, Yu Zhenxiang found that his grandson tossed Luo's father and son one by one, and it was obvious that he had worked hard in the Dahe Gang. Back then, Dahe helped Luo Yong chase Tang Xiaoxiao, so he also bullied Xinjie, and Yu Zhenxiang knew about it. In addition to the fact that the Dahe Gang does not do things authentically and does not follow the rules, it is also one of the reasons why he is unhappy because his grandson is being bullied. In those years, Xinjie was weak and had no ability to protect himself and fight back, but the rapid growth and expansion of this child in the past ten years is amazing. This is also why he has strengthened his determination to let him return to Yumen a few years later. The stronger the child is outside, the greater his own power, and the easier it is to control the Jade Gate in the future.

The Dahe Gang kidnapped the son of the Qin family and coerced the Qin family not to go to the Governor's Mansion to make trouble, and was lost as a hostage in the hands of the Dahe Gang, and the disappearance of the young master of the Qin family was pushed to *. Then the eldest young master of the Dahe Gang fell in love with the daughter of the Qin family and wanted to dramatize and flip, originally the Dahe Gang just wanted to kidnap the young master of the Qin family and scare the Qin family, but he didn't expect to be taken hostage halfway. Immediately the matter fell into a dead end. Many people in Hangzhou besieged the yamen of the prefect of Hangzhou and demanded that the government uphold justice. The government came forward to ask for people, although the Dahe Gang usually walked sideways, but they didn't dare to go too far, and they were angry with the public and faced the official government, but the hostages were lost, and they couldn't argue. Dahe Gang Luo Yi is also a figure, and he pleaded guilty to the Qin family in public and vowed to recover the hostages.

Just when everyone was in a stalemate, Jishantang's carriage arrived at the gate of the prefect's yamen and sent the son of the Qin family back. It was said that someone sent Qin Gongzi to Jishantang and asked Jishantang to send it back. As for whether Jishantang snatched Qin Gongzi from the Dahe Gang and sent it back, or whether someone else intercepted Qin Gongzi and Jishantang sent favors, outsiders don't know. It's just that in the eyes of the Luo family and the Dahe Gang, Jishantang took advantage of the fire to rob and hack the Dahe Gang. And the Qin family, because Jishantang sent Qin Gongzi back, the lease of several soup restaurant shops that were originally being discussed was almost free for five years.

The Dahe Gang and the Qin family finally ended up private, the Qin family withdrew the letter in the government, and the Dahe Gang made amends for their crimes. and paid five hundred taels of gold to shock Qin Gongzi. But in the end, it was impossible for the two sides to get along as peacefully, and the Qin family terminated the freight business with the Dahe Gang and transferred it to Yumen. Obviously, the Great River Gang suffered the most in this matter. But among all the people, in fact, there is no Sun Dufu who has a headache about this. Luo Yi just lost some money and lost some face, but he also had the opportunity to let him clean up Wang Xiaohua's woman. At this time, Sun Dufu had to cheer up and try his best to pass the level of the official patrol.

This inspector does not play his cards according to the common sense of officialdom, and came to Hangzhou coldly, these are not important, with the master and himself for many years of operation, if you change people, many things will cover up the past. It's just that this Gong Zhiyun Gong is the son-in-law of the Chen family. His movements in Hangzhou in the past few years are hard to guarantee that the Chen family does not know. Although Mrs. Sun's maiden family, the Earl of Xin'an, had some friendship with the Chen family in the capital, and the Chen family usually did not say anything about what he did, but this son-in-law came to the door, and he must be closer than him, an outsider. The Chen family originally had the queen mother, and he was not afraid of everyone in Hangzhou, even if he secretly took refuge in the master, the master had some secret power, but he would not fight with the queen mother's power for his subordinates. And that day he sent a letter to let him do what he wanted. Lord Gong didn't specifically check his private affairs, but just asked him to write a self-examination book with others, and then there was no follow-up.

The more insipid it was, the more it made Sun Du panic. In the past, if you have something, you can think of dealing with people who do things, but Gong Zhiyun is not short of money, and with Mrs. Gong and the Chen family as guarantors, Gong Zhiyun has no shortage of future. Woman, if you send it, you will make a feud with the Chen family, and none of his sources in Hangzhou have found a way for him to get close to this young patrolman. After decades of being an official, Sun Dufu felt a little powerless for the first time. A sad face, sighing in the room of Mrs. Yaniang.

Ya Niang has always been Sun Dufu's interpretation flower, and her husband is willing to talk to her if she is worried, although she may not be able to help, but it is always good to say it. After listening to Sun Dufu's words, Yaniang said gently: "No matter how perfect a person is, he has weaknesses. And he stretched out his hand and didn't hit the smiling person, so why not invite Lord Gong to come to the house to drink tea and talk about calligraphy and painting. Master Gong is very talented, maybe some of these can impress him. ”

When Sun Dufu heard this, he immediately felt that it was a method. In the past few years in Jiangnan, in order to socialize with Qingliu celebrities and walk in the capital, he has accumulated a lot of good calligraphy and painting antiques. The eldest son, Yaoyang, has a wide range of friends in this regard. After Sun Dufu had made up his mind, he hurriedly stood up and went to his wife's room to find Yaoyang to discuss together.

The back of the hurried departure did not see a trace of disgust in Ya Niang's eyes, and leaned on the couch with a wilt. She gave Sun Du an idea, but she didn't want him to say that the wind is the rain, so she left her and left. Siqin, the girl next to her, was very obedient and offered a bird's nest and fed Yaniang intimately. whispered: "The adults were here just now, and Mother Gu came in and was stopped by me, I think it's inconvenient for the adults to know what she said when she came in." ”

The girl around Yaniang has been divided into two groups since Mama Qi's accident, one group is born in the house, and the parents are honest, and they try to ask someone to ask for a wife or the manager, and transfer their daughter to other errands, so as not to be discredited together in the second lady's room, and it will be difficult to find her in-law's family in the future. One of them sharpened their heads and climbed up, and they were all a little gloating, not only because Mama Qi was unlucky, there was one less person in charge of them, and there was a chance for Mama Qi to vacate the seat, but also because they had been in this courtyard for a long time, and they more or less wanted to learn the methods of the second lady to go to the man. These girls not only spread the news that Mama Qi was doing by the young Luo Lei outside, but also tried every means to make the second lady value them and let them spend more time by their side. This Siqin is one. Not only are people bewitching, but they are also one of the few girls who can read the secretary's account. Ya Niang handed over some of the things that had been in Mama Qi's hands to her to do.

This Gu mother was also an old man used by Ya Niang in the Qinglou, the husband and wife were loyal, and could write and calculate, Gu mother specially put her money outside, and her husband helped her manage the two grocery stores in Hangzhou. The shop is all reconciled on a monthly basis, and at this time, Gu's mother came in, naturally for the printing of money. In the past, the money was put in the ancient mother through the grocery store. The two grocery stores themselves make very little money, enough to feed two or three guys, and they are not worth seeing at all. If there is no printing money, where is it enough for Ya Niang's expenses all day long. Even if you put the money through the grocery store, because the people around you are not rich, they can't squeeze much oil and water, and they are full of money, and the past month is a few dozen taels of income. Since the second lady found the Dahe Gang to be Mrs. Lady's sister, the way to make money has completely changed. The big river gang's lady of the flower is big, and the whole boat of the big girl was put in the dark cabin and transported to the south of the flower street and willow lane to make money, and came back from the south with all kinds of private goods, in some secret shops in Hangzhou, full of boxes of silver tickets arrived. The second lady got the door of Mrs. Banghua, and often bought and sold a small share, and from time to time there were several hundred taels of silver in the account.

The second lady had a hard life, and with the money in her hand, she was always looking for ways to use it to earn more money, and these profits wanted to print the idea of money. But you can't rely on the grocery store. Da Zhou strictly forbade officials and their families to put money in prints, and the second lady could not come forward to do it in the social circle by herself. I don't want to entrust this matter to the Big River Gang, lest if the Big River Gang has an accident, I will beat the chickens and eggs. So after thinking about it for a long time, I entrusted it to one of her benefactors. These things were naturally hidden from Sun Dufu, and Gu's mother came to the house at most to settle the account of the grocery store. It's just that the current profit and silver have increased several times compared to the beginning, and there are four or five hundred taels in the account every month, which is more than the annual service of the Governor in a year.

"Where's the ancient mother?"

"I thought that the lord would stay here tonight, and I wouldn't see my wife today, so she had already gone back. The slave is letting people pass her in? ”

Yaniang frowned and thought for a while, and shook her head: "Forget it, today was supposed to be the day of this month's settlement, Mother Gu wanted to come in to pay this month's profit, and it would be okay to talk about it tomorrow." ”

She frowned again and thought for a while: "You go out to find Mother Gu in a while, and ask her to send a message to Li Ye, saying that I want to see Ye." ”

See Li Ye now? Siqin frowned a little, the day before yesterday, Lord Fu had just lost his temper for the matter of the Dahe Gang, and only then did he say that he would let the second lady stay in the house and not go out. But the master commanded, Siqin couldn't say anything.

Sun Dufu originally wanted to go to Mrs. Sun to discuss letting Yaoyang come forward, but after thinking about it, he directly asked Sun Yaoyang to come to the study. The father and son were in the study for more than two hours, and when they came out, Sun Yaoyang's face was not very good, and everyone didn't know what the father and son said in the study. I only know that after a while, the Governor asked someone to go to the Aoki Tea House to charter a field, and the next day he was closed, and Sun Gongzi came forward to invite a group of literary friends to appreciate the newly collected famous paintings of the former dynasty.

In the Fulin Garden of Jishan Hall, the old hall master is very leisurely, as the old saying goes, if you are worried about your family, you will be happy at home. Jishantang's sesame oil business is one of the big ones, and over the years, it has been difficult for Sun Dufu because of the river ticket, and it has been squeezed by the Dahe Gang. If it weren't for the face they saw in the palace, they would have been eaten up by Sun Dufu and the Dahe Gang over the years. Although Jiangnan is rich, many large businesses have declined in recent years, and there are more or less shadows of Sun Dufu and the Dahe Gang. In the past few years, the Dahe Gang has not succeeded in exploiting ordinary businesses, and they have come out directly, and there are not a few people who have been forced by them to ruin their homes. If something happens, if someone sues the yamen, the prefect will be pressed to death by the governor, and there will be no place to reason. Thinking of Wang Xiaohua, the lowly woman in the Qinglou, Shi Lao, the hall master, felt cold.
