Chapter 338: Things happen for a reason
Chapter 228 There is a reason for it
When Xu Gong followed out the door, he frequently looked back at the hall on the first floor of the inn, which was simply a step at a time.
Wei Luan saw it when she inadvertently looked back, and her heart was full of disdain.
This son made a look of great concern for Chen Zhengting, so why did he harm Chen Yuqing's life in the first place? It's the one who has been serving the Chen family for so many years......
Wei Luan paused at her feet, and Zhao Falcon, who was still leading the way in front of her, naturally followed her and paused: "Girl, what's wrong?" ”
She waved her hand, and just like that, she clasped her hands in front of her chest: "Xu Gong, are you worried about Master Chen now?" ”
Xu Gong was stunned when she asked, and looked at her sideways: "Yes......" He hesitated when he replied, in fact, he couldn't tell Wei Luan what to think about to ask this sentence, "The old man fainted to death, and the slave has always known how the master works at home, and his body is not broken, but he ......can't stand it after all."
"Snort-" Wei Luan's voice came out of his nose.
She has seen many people, but she has really never seen such a brazen one.
What is brazenness?
Chen Zhengting has treated him well for more than ten years, and even longer, after all, Xu Gong is a slave born in the Chen family, and his father and mother are on errands in the Chen family, and the family has no worries about food and clothing, which is actually given to them by Chen Zhengting, in the end, what did Chen Zhengting get?
All the care shown by Xu Gong, in Wei Luan's eyes, is a cat crying mouse fake compassion.
If he really had this compassion, he wouldn't have attacked Chen Yuqing.
She thought about it, and her little head also crooked: "I'm very concerned at this time, I'm afraid that Master Chen's body can't bear it, and sooner or later he will have to drag out the problem, and he will faint once today, Ming'er doesn't know what to do, you and Zhang's sin, but you want to call people to suffer this crime, I really knew today, why bother in the first place, right?" ”
Wei Luan said, seeing that the corners of Xu Gong's mouth twitched, he seemed to have something to say, so she took a sip first: "What else do you want to say?" Said that you ate lard and blinded your heart, and fell for Zhang's evil? I've done everything, and I'm going to be a good guy at this time. Master Chen is also very unlucky, when you meet something like you who eats inside and out, wolf-hearted and dog-hearted. ”
She rarely speaks unpleasant words, she has always been favored at home, Li Yan is used to her, she is lawless a lot of times, and has a somewhat aggressive attitude, but ugly words will not be spoken, her father and brother have never taught her, her sister is a beautiful girl, and Li Yan is full of luxury, she is familiar with her ears and eyes, and she is naturally dignified, although it is not dignified and dignified, but frivolous words and deeds are really rare.
Xu Gong scolded her with a red face and red ears, and she couldn't say a word.
Zhao Falcon next to him was secretly surprised, but felt that this second girl seemed to be really angry this time, and she really couldn't see what Xu Gong was doing, but at the moment he didn't dare to ask Wei Luan to say more, for fear that Xu Gong would be in a hurry, or embarrassed, and his master would have to ask after a while, and if he couldn't ask a reason, it would be a big trouble.
It was Zhao Ying who turned on his toes, paced back two steps, and whispered to Wei Luan: "Girl, the master is still waiting for Xu Gong at the other end of the East Chamber, don't be angry with yourself, otherwise Xu Gong's sins will be even heavier, and the master will be angry when he sees it, and he will not have any good fruit to eat." ”
Wei Luan's pair of round black beads rolled twice, and finally his eyes fell on Zhao Falcon: "How can you speak for him?" ”
She couldn't say where the breath she was holding in her heart came from, but it must not be for Chen Zhengting's grievances, maybe ...... Maybe it's a person like Zhao Falcon who eats inside and out, she has seen it before, and she has also been harmed by such people, just like the Song family in her previous life, especially the pair of sisters of the Song family.
Zhao Ying shook his head again and again and said that he didn't dare, Wei Luan knew that he was angry when he said this, took a deep breath, and straightened his body: "I'm joking with you, let's go." ”
The expression on her face also changed too fast, Zhao Falcon's heart said that this second girl is young, but her mind is really hard to guess, he is also a person who has seen all kinds of people, and he can still figure out the thoughts and thoughts of this second girl in the past, but now he ...... It's hard to do that now.
……
Li Yan was sitting cross-legged on the Luohan bed, with a three-legged table with black auspicious cloud patterns under the elbow of his left hand, and his eyes were slightly closed, looking like he was taking a nap.
Wei Luan actually thinks that this inn is very wonderful, on the east and west sides of the main building of the lobby, there are two wing rooms each.
When the group of them first stayed, Wei Luan was curious, and even Wei Ziqi and Li Yan had never seen an inn anywhere, which was like this, and there were wings outside, so they asked two more words, and the shopkeeper said that the reason why they placed the east and west wings was to entertain distinguished guests.
But what is a distinguished guest?
Later, they learned that the shopkeeper here opened the door to do business, ushered in the more than 20 years of sending to, and saw a lot of strange guests, some people do not want to live with those people, although the building is divided into four floors, the third and fourth floors of the upper room are all comfortable, but after all, sometimes there are many people, gathered together, will cause unnecessary trouble, and some guests will be very unhappy about this.
Therefore, after the shopkeeper has been operating in the inn for a few years, he has built another wing room in the courtyard in front of the building, two rooms in the east and west, all of which are independent into a small courtyard style, separated from each other, if there are very rich guests, a room to stay for a night is ten taels of silver.
Wei Luan thinks that this shopkeeper is good at business, rich people are not rare for ten taels of silver, walking around for a clean and comfortable place, and can afford these ten taels of silver, even if they live for a long time, there are also some.
At that time, she heard the shopkeeper specially mention to them that the one near the door of the west wing room used to be rented by Chen Yuqing all year round.
In the past 20 years, many guests have entered Huzhou and are willing to come to their inn to play the top, that is, for these four wings, he is not short of business, and he will not lack this bit of silver, but Chen Yuqing went to such a bag, set a precedent, and in the future, people only took silver to speak, and they all had to wrap the wings, whether they could live or not, they had to be placed there, then his original intention was no longer there.
But later, Chen Yuqing gave him a price of fifteen taels of silver for one night, and he brought out the name of the Chen family to scare people, and the shopkeeper pondered, horizontal and vertical is not a loss-making transaction, and repeatedly discussed with Chen Yuqing, and hung up as usual, but every time a guest came to live in Room No. 1 in the West Wing, he only deduced that there were already guests living in it, and Chen Yuqing just didn't make a noise outside.
Wei Luan also asked at that time, what did Chen Yuqing want? A person with a big family and a big business, where can he not buy a house, and he does not see that this wing room has become a fairyland-like place on earth, and it is worth spending so much silver on him, so he has to rent that room.
Later, they learned that Chen Yuqing sometimes messed around outside, in fact, it was very unpopular with Chen Zhengting, he hated his eldest son for coming and going to and from Huajie Willow Lane, and in the early years, Chen Yuqing also had a foreign house, but it was all secret, and Chen Zhengting found it once, and cut off all his monthly silver, and he was not allowed to go to the cabinet to support the silver, so he didn't dare to raise the outer house, but dared to say that he fell in love with a good girl with a good appearance, and welcomed the concubine home, and as for those who were more good-looking, but from a mediocre background, or simply a girl from Hualou, He didn't dare to take it home, and he didn't dare to go to the building to have fun, the house couldn't raise people, just happened to have such a few wings in this inn, because the price was expensive, the layout could naturally enter the eyes of a playboy like Chen Yuqing, he moved this thought, even if he threw thousands of taels a year, he didn't hesitate.
At this moment, the three of them entered the door one after the other, Wei Luan looked at Li Yan with a normal expression, pouted and paced, and sat down on his left hand.
As soon as she sat down, Li Yan pushed the teacup in her hand to her end, she looked down, the lid was ajar, and the floating leaves inside could be faintly seen.
Wei Luan had a faint smile on his face, but he didn't say anything, he took a sip of tea, and felt comfortable all over, and then the teacup was put back in its place: "God is chattering, call people to the east wing to question, my eldest brother just said about me." ”
She lowered her voice, Zhao Ying could barely hear it when she stood closer, and Xu Gong stood far away, so she couldn't hear it very clearly.
Li Yan also laughed with her: "Let him go, he has always been like this, but whenever you are closer to me, he will obstruct it, probably I and your eldest brother were enemies in the last life, and no one will treat anyone in this life, but I still have to deal with it." You see that I have been repeatedly soft and courteous recently, I watched, his attitude was not much and soft, it was all for the sake of 'His Royal Highness King Qi', and he barely gave me a little politeness and respect, so I couldn't get off the stage. ”
Wei Luan originally just said it casually, but seeing that Li Yan was not in a hurry to ask Xu Gong, he had the intention to talk to her, and he slowly opened his eyes at this time, and his eyes never swept over Xu Gong who was standing at the door.
He had the heart to hang Xu Gong.
Wei Luan's eyes narrowed, and he decided to accompany him to act, only leaving Xu Gong aside, and talking to him as if no one was around: "How many years have I said such things, from the time I can remember, to now, there must be ten years, right?" That's probably the case for the two of you in this life, but fortunately, I know that I don't have to be estranged from you, no matter how much my eldest brother preaches me, I just don't listen. ”
Li Yan seemed surprised: "You didn't listen to your eldest brother's words?" It seems that I have a lot of weight in your heart. ”
Wei Luan blamed him, and intentionally or unintentionally looked in the direction of Xu Gong.
She knew that Xu Gong couldn't hear when he stood far away, so she asked him in a lower voice more and more: "Just dry for a while, you are talking endlessly, do you really plan to hang people at the door all the time?" ”
"He's not in a hurry, what are you anxious about?"
Li Yan's voice fell, and he looked at Xu Gong for the first time in the direction of the door.
How could he not be impatient?
The two hands overlapping each other clearly rubbed together from time to time, and the head was lowered, but Li Yan could see Xu Gong's head moving from time to time, he probably wanted to look around, and he was more eager to know what he and Wei Luan were doing, why they called him, but they seemed to have forgotten that there was such a person as him.
At this point, Li Yancai sighed and raised his voice again: "I called you here to ask something, Master Chen is asleep, you are worried about his body, and I brought you out for questioning, it is to follow your wishes, and no longer stimulate him, you stand at the door and don't come in, are you going to ask what I want, and you don't answer?" ”
Xu Gong hurriedly raised his tone and said no, and then stepped on small steps, almost trotted, and approached.
He didn't dare to stand and reply, knowing that he was a person who had committed a crime, this Highness didn't take him directly to send him to the official at this time, there must be His Highness's intentions, but he would definitely not be sympathetic to him.
"Your Highness just asks, and the slave must know everything and say everything." Xu Gong blindly kowtowed, and it became louder than the other, "It's the slave who has committed a mortal crime, the crime is unforgivable, there is nothing good to not answer, and there is nothing to refuse to answer you." ”
Wei Luan frowned when he heard the sound of his kowtow, Li Yan knew that she couldn't see this, so she sat up a little straighter, and sighed: "You have to die in front of me with such a kowtow, what's the matter?" Knowing that you have committed something, and the matter is exposed, and you simply knock it to death, can it be regarded as atonement for your sins? ”
This sounded like a joke, but Xu Gong was in a state of flux, and sure enough, he stopped kowtowing.
He raised his head and looked at Li Yan blankly.
Li Yan and Wei Luan glanced at each other, and their foreheads were really red and swollen...... Xu Gongbei really has such a mind, so he simply died, and it was a hundred, right?
Wei Luan sighed in his heart: "What's so good about the Zhang family?" ”
She blurted it out, and Li Yan couldn't help but shake her head.
This girl is a little stupid, she can't ask about a girl's family, but when she realized that Xu Gong might have the intention to die, she actually felt that Xu Gong still intended to defend the Zhang family, and would rather die than confess more crimes against the Zhang family, but she couldn't continue to be sorry for the Chen family, so it was better to die.
Li Yan took a deep breath and took Wei Luan's words: "Xu Gong, at this age, you should have become a relative a long time ago, and you should have both children under your knees, right?" ”
Xu Gong said yes, but he didn't have the previous spitting appearance, and he sniffed: "It's just that my family's fortune is not good, and I went ten years ago." Later, I worked hard for the Chen family, a pair of children were young, no one took care of them, there was a continuation of the string to marry one, but that one was black hearted, I was not at home, I blindly tried to grind the children, the children were young and did not dare to sue, the first time I knew, it was the Zhang family told me......"
As he spoke, he couldn't stop sighing: "If the continuation of the string is a good marriage, there will be no all the things that follow this." ”
It seems that Xu Gong and Zhang's friendship back then were not traceless, let alone for no reason, but I am afraid that Xu Gong's children are the key to the problem.
Li Yan thought so, so he asked him: "The one you continue to string is not good to your child, maybe it was abused by the child, and it happened that the Zhang family ran into it and told you, and then the Zhang family blindly took pity on your child, and took good care of your children, and after a long time, you also had feelings for her, right?"
