Chapter 16 Lessons

Spring goes to autumn, and in the blink of an eye it's October.

Xia Meizhen has sold toon flatbread, zongzi baba, salted duck eggs, black eggs, pastries and sugar cakes, and has become a skillful hand in Lingyang Village in just a few months, and even the Cheng family of the Lotus Workshop has specially ordered pastries here for her, and she has been in the limelight for a while.

But Liu Da, who was impatient to wait, came to Aunt Wu again, and scolded when he entered the door: "You old immortal, tell me how long it has been here, why haven't you moved, you shouldn't be delaying time, right?" ”

In a word, Aunt Wu broke out in a cold sweat, it was really the conscience of heaven and earth, she had been to the Jiang family more than a dozen times in the past three months, and she was also unlucky, and she met someone from the Cheng family every time, how dare she tell Xia Meizhen about it, then she had to be beaten half to death by the people of the Cheng family!

Everyone knows that the old man and young master of the Cheng family like that girl's craftsmanship, if they know that they got the person away, then ...... The consequences ...... It's scary to think about.

Aunt Wu hurriedly said: "Liu Daguan, you wait, wait, I will definitely do you well, I will do it well!" ”

But where would Liu Dage still listen to her verbosity, a pair of obscene eyes looked Aunt Wu up and down, and said slowly: "Give you another month, if you don't send someone over to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will sleep with you!" ”

This is really even more terrifying than the arrival of the king of heaven, Aunt Wu turned white on the spot, and spit out a mouthful of blood, what can I do!

At this time, in front of the famous Xichun Building on the West Street of Xuanzhou Fucheng, a group of well-dressed men were talking, and the most conspicuous among them was a young man with porcelain white skin, he was tall and thin, with picturesque eyebrows, and he could attract people's attention wherever he went.

That's right, this person is Xiao Hengwei, the second young master of the Xiao family in Xuanzhou Mansion, who is currently a major event of the Yanyin Approval Institute, and he is a local parent official or a wealthy gentry with him.

The Xiao family of Xuanzhou Mansion is the ancestral home of Xiao Pei, the general of the Auxiliary State, although the title is hereditary, but it is also the descendant of the minister of the dragon, and no one dares to underestimate it. Further up, during the Wuhu Chaos period, the Xiao family of Xuanzhou Mansion was already a famous local scholar family, and later married with the Xiao family of the Shandong scholar family in Nandu, which was later known as the Lanling Xiao family, the son of heaven of the two dynasties, and the prime minister of the nine dynasties, but it was not a joke.

Besides, Emperor Zu established the Great Zhou Dynasty, if there was no secret help from the Xuanzhou Xiao family, it would be impossible to destroy the previous dynasty in just half a year, therefore, Xuanzhou Xiao Xiao Zhong was only thirty-one years old and was crowned the king of Lijun, and for a time, the Xuanzhou Xiao family was unspeakably expensive.

After that, Xiao Chong moved his family to Kyoto, and the Xiao family in Xuanzhou Mansion suddenly became an empty shell, and few people came except for the ancestral house. It wasn't until seventeen years ago that Xiao Peizhong's mother, who was then a servant of Zhengsanpin, returned to her ancestral hometown to recuperate, and Xuanzhou Xiaofu became popular again.

However, Xiao Hengwei admitted that he did not show his feet to be recognized, he had been living under his grandmother's strict upbringing, and he only came out to walk around at the beginning of the year, and who would have thought that the son of Xiao Peizhong, the favored minister of the court, would enter the officialdom from the position of the ambassador of the Yanyin Approval Institute.

The young man turned around, and a man in green clothes behind him stepped forward, handed over a white porcelain vase, and then respectfully stepped back.

The manservant was sent by the family to serve, called Xiao Qing; In the bottle was a pill made for him at home, and he poured out one and ate it.

"You go back first, I want to go by myself." He said.

Hearing this, Xiao Qing looked up in astonishment, and before coming out, the old lady repeatedly explained that she should take care of the young master and not let him run around alone, at this time......

"I'll take care of it." Xiao Hengwei said and raised his feet and walked forward.

Xiao Qing didn't dare to stop him, so he had to turn around and run home to report to the old lady.

The Xuanzhou Mansion in the afternoon was not as lively as in the morning, but it also had a different taste.

The old woman who set up a tea stall on the side of the road carefully wiped the tables and chairs, and the hot water in the kettle next to her gurgled and sprayed the fragrance of tea; The picker carried rouge, silk thread, windmills, kites and other things, barking all the way, and sweat fell down his red face. There is also the scattered shopkeeper sitting at the door of the store dozing............

This comb is good, it is a treasure to buy it at home, it will be used continuously for ten years, it will not be bad for twenty years, it will not be finished in this life, and it will be used in the next life!

Honey come to the rock sugar gourd! Honey come to the rock sugar gourd!

I'm doing it, you're watching, your eyes are counting, your heart is counting, I definitely can't suffer from you!

The sound of selling in his ears continued, Xiao Hengwei looked over one by one, and saw that the cow comb on a stall was good, so he walked over and picked up a handful to take a closer look.

Women are the most happy about this kind of thing, and grandmothers should be happy to buy it back, right?

"Alas, brother, I want to ask you something, let's talk as we go." Suddenly, a man grabbed his shoulders, and there were three or four people around him, and the finished word surrounded Xiao Hengwei.

There was a cold tingling pain in his waist, and Xiao Hengwei stopped his intention to look back.

"Let's go." The man whispered.

The shouting in his ears was still the same, and the passers-by did not behave unusually, Xiao Hengwei glanced at the man from the corner of his eye, raised his legs and walked forward.

After walking for a while, he was about to enter an alley, Xiao Hengwei clenched his fists slightly, but his waist was kicked hard, and the whole person fell out.

Suddenly attacked, Xiao Hengwei reacted quickly and turned over and sat up, alert to the group of people in front of him.

"I don't know Taishan with eyes, today I will give you a long memory!" The man crossed his waist and said.

Before the words fell, someone stepped forward and stepped on Xiao Hengwei's chest, crushed it, and then laughed:

"Boss, this person has fine skin and tender meat, will he be killed in a few hits?"

"If there is work to do, it will be done, what does it matter to us who die or not!" A strong black man on the side said.

As he spoke, he was about to step forward, and a pair of hands held in front of his chest clicked, but was stopped by another person, who whispered something in the boss's ear.

When the boss heard this, he waved his hand, "Huzi, I'll give you a new pair of stone locks when you go home, this person can't withstand your fists." ”

Huzi looked at Xiao Hengwei on the ground, retreated, and said to the boss, "You have to talk about it." ”

Xiao Hengwei, who was trampled underfoot, looked at it in disbelief, he thought that these people were just local gangsters, but he didn't expect them to be so disciplined.

He struggled hard, but he didn't break away, and the foot on his body seemed to weigh a thousand gold.

Immediately he saw the eldest pick up a stone from the ground and walk towards him, and then crouched down, and came at him......

"It's not good to offend anyone, if you offend Li Chengshan's old thief, it depends on the Buddha whether you can spare your life!"

When Xiao Hengwei woke up, his neck hurt and he was dizzy.

He got up and sat down, only to find that there was a small river beside him, and the faint morning light was projected on the water, reflecting the glow of light and shadow.

The surroundings are overgrown with weeds and deserted.

After sitting for a while, he slowly got up and walked along the river, and after about half an hour, he faintly heard someone talking.........

"You eat by yourself at noon, and I'll cook for you when I come back in the evening." Take care of the door at home, you know?. At the gate of the courtyard, Jiang Yunxian said to Xia Meizhen inside the door.

"Hmm... Then be careful on the road. Xia Meizhen nodded, and pushed Jiang Yunxian out as she spoke, "Go early and come back early, I'll wait to eat white rice!" ”

Jiang Yunxian was going to the town to sell cloth and buy some white noodles by the way, which made her happy mouth crack to the root of her ears.

"What else would you think about besides eating?" Jiang Yunxian said with disgust.

Xia Meizhen patted her stomach, made a very hungry look, and said with a smile: "It's not that I want to eat, it's that it wants to eat." ”

Jiang Yunxian ignored her and turned to leave.
