Chapter 16: Lian Zhenyun in Xu's Mansion (1) (Minor Repair)
Qi Su Niang and Chen Yan were eating, when they heard a bang at the middle door, Chen Yan went to most of the meeting, his face was gloomy, he hugged Qi Su Niang and sighed: "The salt division sent someone down to pick up Governor Xu's seal, and took the official document to the county to borrow someone to go to Xu's house to check it." Wang Xiancheng and the Xu family are related, so they have to be avoided, so we have ordered Yun Dianshi to take fifty strong men to surround the Xu Mansion. ”
Qi Su Niang was startled, and sure enough, she heard the neighing of the horses outside, and gathered a lot of people and horses, and after a while, there was a shout, and the sound of heavy footsteps and horses' hooves hurried towards the county.
Qi Su Niang hugged Chen Yan tightly in his arms and said, "Since it is just a collection of seals and copying the family, parents, brothers and family members should be fine?"
Chen Yan was silent for a long time, "It's not just the case of greedy ink, the forced purchase of the salt farm stove more than 30 years ago, all the lives were killed, and Wen Qi sued him in the early days." I heard that the official documents of the affidavit had been written, and the Xu family's room was full of mismatches, and the family wealth was not enough to pay off the money for embezzlement, so the crime was added to the crime, and the slaves were sold separately. ”
Qi Su Niang was taken aback, and Chen Yan smiled bitterly: "How many years has Wen Qi endured in Qinghe County, waiting for such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, where will he not take revenge on the last three generations?" The Xu family is also self-inflicted and cannot live. ”
Qi Su Niang said in a trembling voice: "That old lady Xu - and lotus fragrance - " Chen Yan hugged Qi Su Niang tightly, kissed the top of her hair and comforted: "It's good to be able to save your life, Governor Xu has already prepared to behead the prisoner, the old lady Xu is too sick to die, and the old lady is not in good health." ”
Qi Su Niang didn't expect that in just half a month, the Xu family would be defeated so easily, knowing that something was wrong, I was afraid that someone would push the wall behind the back, and the fate of the family would not be good, so she said anxiously: "Their family is the first-class family in Qinghe, where will the family wealth be insufficient to repay-" As soon as the words came out, he knew that it was useless, and he couldn't help crying: "Anyway, the old lady Xu also took care of me for two days, where can she stand this, Lianxiang - Lianxiang is only fourteen years old, and she is still a child-"
Chen Yan wiped away Qi Suniang's tears, and said softly: "If you don't feel at ease, I'll go and see, so that Mrs. Xu will suffer less, and you can also send her." If you like the lotus incense, we'll bring her back. ”
Qi Su Niang heard the words "send her", only felt sad, grabbed Chen Yan's sleeve, nodded, and shook her head again, "In the end, it is under the control of the salt department, when there is nothing to do, the people and the salt jurisdiction have a bad account, if you go, it is difficult to say what will happen." Besides, the old lady's side is an in-house member, and it's not convenient for you. I'm just going to be a friendship with my family, and at this time, no one will think about it anymore......"
Chen Yan stared at Qi Su Niang and said: "I know you want to go, but I don't feel at ease, there are too many cheats in the house, and it is inevitable that the female relatives will be humiliated, I am not by your side, I am afraid that you will be frightened." Although it is inconvenient for me, but in the end, if I borrow someone from my county office, the salt division will not say anything-"
Qi Su Niang shook her head again and again, not letting Chen Yan go, but Chen Yan didn't worry about her going, when the two were in a dilemma, there was a loud noise at the backyard door, "Sister, open the door, I'm back." ”
Qi Su Niang heard that Qi Qiang was going home, and hurriedly went to open the door, seeing Qi Qiang's face red, knowing that he had drunk wine, he hurriedly brought him the sobering soup on the stove that had been on the stove in advance, and when he finished drinking, he was going to send him to chuang to sleep.
Qi Qiang said with a smile: "Don't worry, I can still hold on, Lian Zhenyun and Li Siqin drank more than me, so I still went to the Xu family to do errands." I'll go check it out later, and I'll sleep when I come back. ”
When Qi Su Niang heard this, she was overjoyed, and she didn't care to ask Lian Zhenyun why they went to Xu's house, so she hurriedly said to Qi Qiang: "Brother, I just want to go to Xu's house to have a look, Brother Chen is inconvenient, you can take me there." ”
Qi Qiang was stunned for a moment, looked at Chen Yan, and Chen Yan sighed: "When she was sick last time, Mrs. Xu took care of her for two days, and there was a girl in the Xu family who had been waiting for her. Since people are in difficulty, they can help those who can help, which is also justified. Qi Qiang nodded in response.
Qi Su Niang hurriedly went back to the room to change clothes and pack up some gold and silver, Chen Yan pulled Qi Qiang to the front hall, because something happened to him, the subordinate officials were all there, only Wang Xiancheng avoided staying at home. Chen Yan ordered Wang to prepare a sedan chair, ordered ten horses to follow, turned to Qi Qiang and said: "Brother Qi Qiang, you also know that it was very chaotic when raiding the house, Su Niang, she usually looks at the stakes, but in fact, she is soft and timid, don't let her be frightened." After a pause, "Lian Zhenyun did this?" You are old acquaintances, tell him, if Su Niang likes it, let's pay to redeem that girl. ”
Qi Qiang smiled: "Don't worry, it's just a girl, I'll go and say it, and he will naturally give it to me." ”
