Chapter 040: Not idle
Chapter 040 is not idle
Prison.
"Hey, today's luck is really good, you can get a hundred taels of silver by passing a word."
The female jailer held a silver ticket in her fat palm, and she couldn't help but grin at the thought of the amount on it.
Walking to Wang Qifang and Mrs. Li's cell, the female jailer kicked the fence and shouted: "Hey, Mrs. Li, there is a little lady surnamed Cui outside who wants to come to see you, but there is a life from above, you are a serious offender, and no one can see you without the instructions of today." However, that little lady is very sincere and wants you to give her a word and let her know how you are doing. ”
The little lady surnamed Cui? Could it be Yun Niang?
Mrs. Li opened her eyes, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, her face that had been stiff for several days finally relaxed, she lightly voiced, and said, "Thank you for this lady, I bother you to tell her, it's almost the Dragon Boat Festival, I want to eat the zongzi she made herself, and when the family is over, let her send it to me!" ”
"Zongzi?"
The female jailer didn't know what kind of dumb riddles this duchess played, but since she had received money from others, she couldn't be tired of anything. Besides, the boss just said that you should not let strangers see the prisoner, or bring anything to eat, but did not say that you should not carry the words.
Perhaps, after she takes this sentence out, the stupid boy outside will give her some more silver.
The female jailer nodded, "Okay, if there's anything else to say, I'll tell him as well." ”
Mrs. Li shook her head lightly and said, "No, thank you!" ”
The female jailer asked so casually, and after seeing that Mrs. Li didn't say anything, she swaggered out of the cell again.
Li Jingtian, who was on the other side, heard the movement here and took the initiative to chat with his mother: "Mother, is it someone sent by my uncle?" ”
It's been a whole day, and his mother didn't say a word, Li Jingtian knew that he acted without permission this time, which really made his mother sad, no matter what he said, his mother ignored him, and he was at a loss.
Now that he finally heard his mother speak, no matter how much he didn't like his uncle's family in the past, as long as he could divert his mother's attention, Li Jingtian would be happy to gossip.
"No, your uncle has already drawn a line for me," Mrs. Li didn't want to deal with her son, but when she thought that she had to let her son know that Yun Niang was good, she said coldly: "The person outside should be Yun Niang, alas, speaking of which, she is really a good child, when she was in Pingzhou Prison that day, she was innocently affected by our family, but she didn't complain, she still served me so well-behaved, and the jewelry on her body was given to the jailer to give me food and drink, but she didn't eat a bite." ”
“…… Yun Niang? "That cousin with a complicated look? The daughter of the Cui family who acts exquisitely?
Li Jingtian was not very impressed by the little ladies who lived in the Li family, and he had only seen Cui Yunniang mentioned by his mother a few times. But to be honest, he didn't have a good impression of this woman, because from Cui Yunniang's eyes, he saw many things, such as ambition, such as ruthlessness, and hypocrisy......
If these traits are put on a man, he may become a generation of heroes, and maybe they can become friends with each other. But it's a little scary to put it on a woman, well, you can barely be a partner with her, but you must not marry her and become a lady.
After all, it's tiring enough to be out and calculating all day, do you have to play tricks with your wife when you go home?
Li Jingtian doesn't want this kind of life, in his mind, his ideal family life should be the days when he and Qi Niang and the children are on Peach Blossom Island. If you add him and Qi Niang's children, it will be even more complete.
Of course, Li Jingtian would not tell Mrs. Li these words, he knew that Mrs. Li had always liked Cui Yunniang very much, and she also tried her best to match the family affairs between them, but he used various excuses to shirk them.
This time, with his father's consent, he made a marriage with Qi Niang, and finally could justifiably refuse her, and he could no longer have anything to do with Cui Yunniang. However, seeing that his mother was so easy to have an interest in chatting, he didn't want to break it at will, so he hummed and echoed casually, "Well, my mother treats her like a daughter, and she should be filial to her mother." ”
"It's unreasonable for you kid to speak, Yun Niang's surname is Cui and not Li, and she hasn't received any great favor from the Li family, where should she be?" Mrs. Li rolled her eyes very ungracefully, and then suddenly remembered that her son couldn't see it, so she said angrily: "Jingtian, you are not young anymore, don't you know Yun Niang's heart for you?" Our Li family suffered such a catastrophe, and the girl from the other family can follow her thousands of miles to the capital, and go to the prison to greet me with all her might, aren't you moved at all? ”
What does Shenma mean?
Wang Qifang sat in the corner with her knees crossed, listening to the mother and son chatting expressionlessly, and her heart was like boiling hot water, gurgling and bubbling.
Okay, even if you, who are a mother-in-law, don't look down on me, but I am nominally Li Jingtian's fiancée, and I was put in prison because of this identity, so I am worthy of the Li family, even if I am not a hero, I am not a sinner. How can a mother-in-law try to sell another woman to her son in front of her daughter-in-law?
"Mother, Yun Niang is my sister," Li Jingtian rubbed the corners of his forehead helplessly, and said weakly, "She is willing to come all the way to see you, which proves that she is indeed a good woman, and I thank her too." Don't worry, when I go out, I will definitely find her a good mother-in-law's family and let her marry beautifully! ”
“…… You! ”
Mrs. Li remembered that her son was not in front of her this time, so she simply gave her cold eyes to Wang Qiniang, who was nesting aside-they were all this woman, if it weren't for her, Yun Niang's relationship with Jingtian would have been completed a long time ago.
Sitting and getting shot? Wang Qifang bit her fingers and asked the sky speechlessly!
Ping'an Fang, the palace.
"Third Young Master, what are you holding in your hand?"
As soon as Zhao Erlang's family walked to the main courtyard, she saw Mrs.'s younger brother Wang Jinjue holding a brocade box in his hand, sneakily walking out, she squinted her eyes and looked at it, and found that the box was very familiar, as if it was something in the study, so she hurriedly walked two steps to catch up, curtsied, and stopped Wang Jinjue.
Wang Jinjue was caught red-handed the first time he 'tole' someone's things, he was somewhat embarrassed, and two red clouds suddenly rose on his white face.
However, face can't be eaten, let alone a future, after a short period of embarrassment, Wang Jinjue scolded angrily, "Hmph, what do I take, what do you want this slave to have?" ”
"Back to the third young master, the slave is Mrs. Wang's subordinate, not your third young master's slave, and this courtyard is also Madame's private residence, not the ancestral property of the Wang family, is it a little inappropriate for the third young master to take Madame's things like this?"
Zhao Erlang's family stood up straight and pushed back neither soft nor hard. To tell the truth, she has long been fed up with these two 'relatives' of her wife, and she has been putting the scores of the old lady and the young master in Ping'an Fang all day long, eating and drinking the lady's, but she never cares about the lady who has been missing for a long time, let alone trying to save the lady back.
What's even more disgraceful is that they just eat and live for nothing, and I don't know when they started, they actually became thieves, the baby in the main house, today there is one less colorful glass vase, and tomorrow they will lose a former Panlong ancient inkstone, if it weren't for their subordinates staring at it every day, this peace workshop would be emptied by their father and son.
"Presumptuous! Mrs. Wang is my sister, what's wrong with me as a younger brother and borrowing a few things from my sister temporarily? Besides, am I doing this for myself? Hmph, aren't you helping her make some connections? Wang Jinjue was choked enough by Zhao Erlang's family, a fairly handsome face, red and white, white and black, after changing multiple colors like a palette, he simply waved his sleeves and threatened: "I tell you, if you stop me from saving my sister again, I will send you to the government and accuse you of the crime of being a slave and bullying the master!" ”
Saying that, he didn't dare to stay for a long time, Wang Jinjue trotted out of the courtyard with his things - huhu, it was easy to get in touch with the big housekeeper in Uncle Zheng Guo's mansion, he couldn't go late, otherwise, the quota of the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy would fly away.
Shameless!
Zhao Erlang's family looked at the back that was disappearing quickly, and they were so anxious.
"Aunt Zhao, Aunt Zhao, this day is really impossible," the account room covered the left half of his face, and ran over with a snort, and held an account book in the other hand, "Look at it, it's only been a few days, and Master Wang went to the account room to pay two hundred taels of silver, and if he continues to toss like this, the account room will be emptied by him sooner or later." ”
"What? Another two hundred taels? Did you ask him what he was doing with so much silver? ”
Zhao Erlang's family grabbed the account book and looked at it anxiously, every expense was clearly recorded in the account book, and under the account with the largest amount, Wang Mingchuan's name was signed.
"Yes, look, this is the old man's answer!"
The bookkeeper let go of the hand covering his face bitterly, revealing a bright red slap print.
"Forget it, the next time Master Wang pays another amount of silver, you can tell him that there is no money in the account. Let him come to me. ”
Zhao Erlang's family closed the account book, sighed faintly, and couldn't help wailing in his heart, Madam, where have you been? Do you know that if you don't come back, this house slave will be unable to hold on!
Yunlai Inn, second floor.
"Grandpa Guo has arrived, and now he is rushing to the Jinluan Palace, so we must act as soon as possible."
Tie Chu hurriedly came in from the outside, closed the door, and whispered to Wang Jinyu.
"Okay, I'll go and contact the students of Guozijian, as well as the old and young relics of the former Tang Dynasty scattered in the capital."
Wang Jinyu slammed his palm hard, and excitedly went around the room, after waiting for so long, he could finally do it.
"Well, we have to be fast, Grandpa Guo is probably about to arrive at the palace at this time, if we can't incite the 'people' of the capital to petition, even if his old man holds the Danshu iron coupon, he may not be able to force Emperor Longqing to release people."
Using the 'people' to build momentum is the most crucial step in the plan, and there must be no mistakes.
Wang Jinyu nodded, and left the inn with Tie Chu, one rushed to the Guozijian that Lord Li rebuilt, and the other rushed to the capital rudder of the Chivalrous League.
P: Hey, hey, a lot of little pinks, oh, my relatives are so powerful, I'm so grateful, what's that, is there any, continue, continue
