Chapter 156: Selfishness
Chapter 156
Recalling what happened that day, Sun Chang's face was painful.
It was more than two months ago, the sky had darkened, he went to the restaurant to eat, followed by the little servant who served closely, the pot of wine seemed to be inexhaustible, he had been from the sunset, twilight, and drank until the candle was bright.
In fact, the amount of alcohol he drinks is reasonable, but he is in a depressed mood, and he has not drunk for a long time, so he has been on the top for a while.
The slave next to him persuaded him vigorously, his way of eating wine like that, he was always going to get drunk, but what he looked like when he was drunk, there was nothing in the family that he didn't know, so the slave became more and more worried, for fear of causing trouble, and in the end, he simply got his hands on the wine jug in front of him, and said that he would not touch it again.
He felt that all this was extremely boring, the people of Huzhou were, and so did this minion.
The tea farmers at the bottom have the heart to do business with him, and they are willing to sell their tea to the Sun family, which is actually the hearts of the people.
Sun Chang knew very well in his heart that the Chen family was so proud in Huzhou, and they offended these tea farmers below, but they still had to support their families to make a living, and they didn't dare to tear their faces with the Chen family, so when he harvested tea last year, he came up with such a method, if he wanted to lose money, then everyone would lose it together, and the Sun family would not be able to make any benefits.
Obviously, he succeeded, but he also succeeded in offending Chen Zhengting cleanly.
Before I first arrived in Huzhou, my grandfather and father repeatedly explained that they should not conflict with the Chen family, and when it was really a last resort, they should also consider it carefully and think twice, in the end, they and the Wei family are in-laws, and people will not be happy when they look at it, and they will offend people, and they will not get along with silver.
But he thought about it again and again, and he endured it again and again, and at the beginning, the bastard of the Chen family raised the price of this year's tea by more than 20% higher than in previous years.
Receiving the tea at such a price, I am afraid that there is no silver to make this year, and what makes Sun Chang most angry is that he specially inquired about it, the Chen family is not like this to everyone, but only to their Sun family.
So Sun Chang understood.
It was true that he admitted it, but the Chen family didn't buy it at all, let alone approve it.
Grandfather and father said well, that idea is old and old, the Chen family really remembers it in their bones, and plans to remember it for a lifetime.
No matter how soft he is, no matter how much he doesn't fight or grab, the Chen family will not miss his slightest benefit, and this time it is clear that he will not ask his family to do business.
But what about Huzhou? These tea farmers got the same big benefits as the Sun family last year, but this year, aren't they still afraid of the Chen family and dare not do this business with them?
These people, these things, rot in their bones, and they are extremely boring.
The same is true of the one next to him, just after two more glasses of wine, he wants to persuade him like this, as if he wants to provoke something.
At that time, Sun Chang was indeed a little drunk, the wine pot was pressed by the little servant, and he had no wine to eat, so he simply got up and staggered out.
The little guy was even more panicked when he saw this, and let go of his hand to help him: "Uncle, wait, this account has not been settled, you wait for the slave"
Before he finished speaking, Sun Chang waved his hand away and walked out on his own.
Where dare the little guy let him go, he immediately wanted to follow, but the restaurant stopped him and didn't tell him to go, his eyes were always staring at Sun Chang, and he hurriedly took out the broken silver in his arms and threw it over, even the rest of the silver didn't wait for the restaurant to find it back, there was wind under his feet, and he followed all the way out.
In fact, it happened very suddenly, Sun Chang went out of the door, and saw a figure from a distance, very familiar, followed by two small guys, standing there as if pulling and pulling with a girl.
Sun Chang's strength suddenly came up.
He had long heard that the uncle of the Chen family was really not a decent gentleman, he was very lustful, he married a lot of people in his family, not to mention, and he was looking for flowers and willows all day long, wandering in the wind.
If the Chen family's business in Huzhou is a must, then the uncle's name is the second must.
Looking at the entire city of Huzhou, there is no one who can compare to him as debauched.
However, for Sun Chang, whether he marries home or goes to the building to have fun, it is actually Chen Yuqing's freedom, his father doesn't care, where is his turn to speak? It is to be unaccustomed to seeing it, and not to meddle is not to meddle.
But standing on the street in Huzhou at this moment, he couldn't get along with the girl, and he could vaguely hear a few unbearable bastard words.
Sun Chang pricked up his ears to listen, and the girl was clearly afraid, and her voice was dyed with crying.
Thinking back to what the Chen family had done in the past few days, Sun Chang was furious for a while, and stepped out in three or two steps, approaching several of them.
And the little guy hurried out in a hurry, swept around the circle, did not see anyone, and wondered how he could go so fast after eating too much wine, until there was a dispute at the other end, and the noisy sound came, and he recognized the voice of his master, so he opened his legs, lifted his steps, and almost trotted all the way over.
When I got closer, I found that Sun Chang was holding Chen Yuqing's shirt, and what he said was a little vague, and he didn't really hear it.
The Chen family followed the two little servants who served and wanted to hold Sun Chang next to them, but Sun Chang was the son and son of a rich and noble family after all, and they didn't dare to really get started, but they came and went, and Sun Chang's hand that was holding the placket of Chen Yuqing's clothes tightened more and more.
Drunkards who drink too much often don't know what they have done, and he seems to have forgotten at that moment that Chen Yuqing's clothes are held in his hands.
And Sun Chang went south and north, and his body was much stronger than Chen Yuqing's drunkenness, and at this time, the strength of the wine came up, and the anger burned all his reason, Chen Yuqing tried to struggle, but he couldn't do it.
Until Chen Yuqing's face gradually turned pale, revealing a dead face, the little guy called the uncle in a panic: "Hurry up, uncle, let go of the Chen family, Uncle Chen, I'm afraid it's not good." ”
Later, the Chen family was alarmed, and the official was reported overnight, and the prefect's yamen took people overnight.
Du Qiya actually left a way back at that time, and did not arrest the little guy around Sun Chang, but gave him time to go back to Sun's house to report the news, but this one was in the lobby, and it really didn't give Sun Chang a lot of hard work.
Having said this, Wei Ziqi frowned, and he had already heard the clue.
He looked sideways at Wei Luan and found that this girl's eyebrows had already been raised, towering high on the small peak.
It seems that he is not the only one who has heard these clues.
And when Sun Chang himself said it, he looked so excited, and his eyes became more and more gloomy, for fear that even he himself would be aware of it.
Wei Luan really couldn't help it, and her eldest brother opened her mouth first: "So they keep saying that cousin, you missed after drinking, is that how you missed?" ”
Sun Chang nodded and said: "At the beginning, in the court, I also talked about why the little guy of the Chen family didn't come to hold me, it was half pushed, but it was even worse for Chen Yuqing." I did miss, but here, I'm afraid there is also something about those two little guys. ”
He paused again as he spoke, and sighed for a moment: "Later, Chen Zhengting said that those two little guys were originally slaves born from their Chen family, and what to do with them, naturally it was not my turn to ask and interject." Even if I made an unintentional mistake, his son died at my hands after all, and I can't run away with a human life in my life. ”
Heart-wrenching.
Chen Zhengting is accustomed to the means of punishing the heart.
My cousin is a benevolent and righteous person, if he is allowed to carry a human life for a lifetime, he will never be able to feel at ease.
No wonder when he saw him today, he had no intention of survival, and was bent on dying, saying that he would pay for Chen Yuqing's life.
This is Chen Zhengting's treacherous plan.
Wei Luan's face darkened: "Later, Governor Du released the minions around you, but he tortured you in the hall" She paused slightly, vaguely understood something, gasped, and then asked, "Uncle rushed to Huzhou from home, has he seen you?" ”
Sun Chang sneered: "Dad didn't see me in such a miserable situation, how could he give up so much silver first?" Du Qiya's eyes were cold, "From the very beginning, Du Qiya was to knock the Sun family a large sum of silver, and my case can only be dragged on, and when it really can't be dragged on, if he wants to give an explanation to the Chen family and kill me, in front of his father, he has something to say." Since ancient times, it has been murder to pay for life, and he has done his best to protect it, but he can't do it. In the end, he earned the money, and he earned the fame, didn't he? ”
This person
Du Qiya's mind is disgusting.
In the officialdom of Daliang, there is such a person who can still sit in the position of the prefect of the fourth grade!
Wei Luan felt a burst of disgust: "Cousin, what did you say when you saw Chen Yuqing that night, why did you suddenly make a move?" ”
Sun Chang pressed his temples and didn't reply.
Wei Ziqi's eyebrows jumped suddenly, and he knew that there was no need to ask, I was afraid that he was really drunk that day, in fact, he had completely forgotten what the conflict was between him and Chen Yuqing.
If you forget how the dispute started, the girl Chen Yuqing wanted to rob
Wei Ziqi's expression was grim: "Cousin, you can draw, can you still draw that girl that night?" ”
Sure enough, he still didn't speak.
At this point, Wei Luan also understood that he didn't actually want to say it, but he really didn't remember.
She couldn't laugh or cry, such an important matter, he said forget it.
Sun Chang actually had some memories at this time, and asked the two of them to ask me word by word, as if he had the intention of paying for his life at the beginning, and he really fell into Chen Zhengting's trap, and he fell into the trap of others without knowing it, and he also killed people for him, during that time, the whole person panicked, and fell into inextricable chagrin and remorse.
Although his father also visited him in prison, he did not ask him in such detail
These wounds on his body, two months later, still look horrible, so when my father came to the prison and saw him, he only looked even more terrifying.
People say that they pity the hearts of parents all over the world, and when a father sees his son suffering, where does he have any other thoughts?
So from the beginning to the end, no one was really able to explain him, so that today, he realized that he was actually wrong!
If he really died, he would have fulfilled the wishes of the Chen family, and he would have cheapened Du Qiya, the bastard prefect, for nothing, but it was a pity that the family had the pity and love for him, and the silver that had been given up!
Sun Chang suddenly sat up straight, and his face was full of energy: "I was drunk that night, I can't remember anything, and my mind is in chaos, but you can go and ask Debao." ”
"Depot?"
He said, "Depot should remember what happened that day, or at least he must remember what the girl looked like." Debao has grown up with me all these years, and I used to teach him to read and paint. ”
That's a great thing!
They have no clue about the investigation in Huzhou, I'm afraid it's not as good as Debao's memories in a few words, and a portrait?
Wei Luan didn't think about this, but more of the joy on his face that couldn't be hidden: "Cousin, you finally figured it out, right?" ”
Sun Chang had a relieved smile on his face: "No one is a fool, I fell into Chen Zhengting's trap and fell for his evil deeds, I have never been able to let go of this case, every time I see my hands, I will think of Chen Yuqing's death, you will never understand, a living person, died in your hands, killed someone, what is it like." At that time, I regretted it all the time, and his words made me fall into such emotions and it was difficult to extricate myself. It wasn't until I saw you today that I suddenly realized. ”
Wei Ziqi relaxed slightly.
He can figure it out, that's really good, otherwise don't say anything else, just say that Li Yan ran like this this time, and acted like that in the hall of the mansion, everything he did was just to save people If he knew it, Sun Chang had actually decided to die, and it was useless for anyone to persuade him, so for Li Yan, what is all this he did? And what is the Wei family, who originally ran to the Qi Palace, to ask him to come forward?
So the breath that Wei Ziqi had been carrying finally came out: "I will send someone to my house after that to bring Debao to Huzhou." But there is another thing, King Qi wants to know, cousin, which tea farmers did business with you last year, and who did the tea that the Sun family collected in the second half of the year come from? Now I also know, they should actually look up to the Sun family and their cousin, if there is another King of Qi to come forward as a guarantor, it should not be difficult for them to say a few words for your cousin, and so far, this year's new tea business has not been negotiated, in the final analysis, it is still to blame the Chen family, these people support the family, but I am afraid that I hate the Chen family in my heart. ”
Sun Chang shook his head and asked him, "Do you have to involve these innocent people?" What if there is King Qi as a guarantor? Now that they have spoken for me, how will they gain a foothold in Huzhou in the future? It's not that I'm a saint, I can't save my life, and I still have to this heart for others, but it's always for me, the child period, you can't be too selfish, right? ”
