Chapter 240: Who to Start
"Uncle Wei, you are too cunning! As far as you say, it's not even a wild history! Which wild history story will tell what happens when General Chai pees his pants when he is a child? Also, how did he chase his daughter-in-law, and whose daughter-in-law was chasing? You're just coaxing us young. ”
Du Fangxi looked at Wei Xi with disdain.
It's not wrong to say that Du Fangxi is the youngest in this line, followed by Shao Zhiqiu, and everyone else is older than them.
But Shao Zhiqiu, who is young and still a girl, has the final say now.
Wei Xi is Wei Xi, the Wei Xi who escaped from Zhan Xiuyuan's dungeon.
He worked fast all the way, constantly changing his identity in disguise, until he caught up with Shao Zhiqiu and the others, and then began to slow down, and only after a little trimming did he find an opportunity to appear in front of Shao Zhiqiu.
Qingqing gave him too little news, so he wanted to see for himself what kind of person their young master was now and whether he could take on a big responsibility.
Speaking of which, when Shao Zhiqiu saved him at the beginning, and even left him, his evaluation of Shao Zhiqiu was not very good, you must know that kindness is sometimes a dose of poison, a sharp knife that stabs himself.
If they have bad intentions and do something on the road, then won't they suffer a big loss?
But gradually, Wei Xi found that this was not the case, although he could sit in the carriage, he could only sit in the cart loaded with things, and the cart loaded with food was absolutely impossible to get on, and although they did not restrict their freedom, no matter what he did, even if he stood aside in a daze, someone would pay attention to him, which made his heart quite comforting.
It's good to be on guard!
Later, Shao Zhiqiu inquired about Wei Xi's origin several times, and the questions asked seemed to be unintentional, but they were cautious, looking at Shao Zhiqiu's appearance, she also measured what she said.
This made Wei Xi feel even more gratified.
Not long after, Wei Xi began to chat with everyone while they were resting in the wilderness, and little by little everyone changed their opinion of him, and he could be regarded as integrating into this group of half-grown children, which was not obtrusive.
After a long time, everyone regarded him as half a teacher and a friend.
It's just that despite this, Wei Xi found that there were some things that he couldn't find out by himself.
For example, Shao Zhiqiu occasionally goes out with Qi Wu, and it is in the middle of the night.
Where they went and what they were doing, Wei Xi didn't know anything.
Out of helplessness, he had no choice but to send someone to follow, but who knew that his people were either cleaned up in the end, or they didn't follow, if he followed again, he would be exposed, so Wei Xi felt that Shao Zhiqiu was really a little different. As a result, the feelings in my heart became more and more complicated.
Seeing that the group was about to arrive in Zhaozhou.
Shao Zhiqiu is also about to start acting.
The biggest feature of Zhaozhou is prosperity, especially compared with the capital.
If the capital is the place with the most nobles in the Great Zhou Dynasty, then Zhaozhou is the place with the most merchants in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
People who do business in Zhaozhou come from all over the world, and there are many kinds of industries involved.
Naturally, the locals have it.
Thanks to the prosperity of Zhaozhou, the surrounding areas of Zhaozhou are also more active and prosperous than other places.
Now the place they went to is called Zhanglin County, which is one of the destinations of Shao Zhiqiu's trip.
The magistrate of Zhanglin County, although Mingli is not Qi Ruichen's person, wears pants on the same leg as the prefect of Zhaozhou, and secretly helps Qi Ruichen do things.
Hu Ying left someone here, and waited for Shao Zhiqiu to lead the way after Shao Zhiqiu arrived.
This matter is really too involved, so whether it is Qi Wu, Du Fangxi and the others, Shao Zhiqiu can't let them participate in the early stage, they can only happen to encounter something at the same time, otherwise it will be too deliberate.
But if Shao Zhiqiu left them alone and acted alone, it would be too suspicious! Shao Zhiqiu has never done such a thing along the way, and it is even more unnoticeable at this time.
Fortunately, Qingshu and them are there, and Yingyu and the others have already been instructed to come here in advance, and they can also help Qingshu in secret.
In the elder brother's house of Wu Weimao's concubine, the magistrate of Zhanglin County, there is now a wave of scoundrels surrounding their family in the house, begging for the factor to no avail, and they are about to start smashing and kidnapping people.
The concubine's sister-in-law, Wang, is now hugging the child in the corner and trembling in fear, if it weren't for a kitchen knife in her hand, I'm afraid those scoundrels would have rushed up to take people.
"Hehe, don't blame us for being ruthless, the monster blames Wan Lao Wu for his own bad luck, and he doesn't believe in evil! Is our Tong Ye's silver so easy to owe? Now that he's gone, we're left to pay off our debts with you and you, two little cubs! ”
The evil man who spoke had a mouthful of big yellow teeth, although he said helplessly, but his eyes were full of evil intentions.
It's not the first time they've done this kind of thing, just like a little lady like Wang, in the end there is no other way but to admit her fate and be taken away by herself, this kind of empty glove white wolf business is really a million profits, you just need to find a good fool in advance!
Wang was almost dizzy when he heard this, this brute, it was not enough to lose money and lose the house, and now he actually lost himself and his children!
Looking at the son and daughter who were hiding in his arms and trembling like a plug, Wang choked with sadness.
If they really let them take people away, their own family will be left with a dead end.
"He... How much money does that beast owe you? Wang asked through gritted teeth.
When Big Yellow Tooth heard this, he came to the spirit, if he could get the silver directly, it would naturally be better than pulling someone to sell it!
Anyway, with her boneless old man, she doesn't have to worry about people pulling away!
"Not much, not much, but only six hundred taels!"
Wang almost turned his back on it!
Even if you sell everything in the house, it's not worth six hundred taels!
But she had to admit it, otherwise there would be an IOU drawn by the beast today, and her mother and son would be buried.
Wang gritted his teeth and said. "Good! Six hundred taels is six hundred taels! I'll give you this money! But not today, if you want the silver, you'll have to wait a day! You'll have it again tomorrow this time! ”
When Big Yellow Tooth heard this, he was not happy, and he was having fun with this little lady?
"Hehe, little lady, don't you think I'm a fool? I will let you go today, and tomorrow your family will run away, who will I ask for money? ”
"Nope! We won't run! Silver we have! Lord Zhixian is our aunt! Qu Qu is only six hundred taels of silver! We'll definitely be able to come up with it! ”
The relationship between the Wang family and the magistrate has long been known to Da Huangya, but the unsuccessful man of the Wang family has long worn out the patience of his own sister, and he can't stand up to having such a shameless brother no matter how much affection he has for his mother's family.
As early as half a year ago, Lord Wu's favorite concubine ignored her unsuccessful brother.
"Hehe, little lady, it's not that we don't give face to Lord Wu, but I haven't seen that Lord Wu recognize that bad guy in your family as an uncle."
"No matter what Master Wu says, is it possible that there is still a reason for a sister to look at her brother? If you really persecute us today, it's a big deal that I wipe my neck with the child, and then you will be empty of people and money, and I am afraid that you will not be able to explain! After Wang finished speaking, he compared the knife to his neck, and although he was afraid, he looked at Big Yellow Fang and the others very firmly.
It's still a stubborn temper.
Big Yellow Tooth couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
