Chapter 235: Let the Tiger Return to the Mountain
The night has seen the depth, the sound in the courtyard is more and more people awakened, the noisy people even around the neighbors who have suffered together are gathered at the gate of the Zhang family's courtyard, Zhang Renshan and San'er originally wanted to go to the courtyard to deal with the three people first, but San'er turned around and saw that there were already a lot of people gathered at the door of his house, in line with the principle of not making things bigger, San'er said to Zhang Renshan: "Xian'er, you go to the courtyard first to suppress the sound, after all, if the sound is too loud at night, it will arouse curiosity." ”
Zhang Renshan also nodded hurriedly and turned around and walked towards the courtyard, San'er hurriedly arrived at such a place, the guards outside were trying their best to block it, and the crowd who heard the sound and came to see the excitement shook their bodies San'er stood outside the door and said, "Everyone! There is some noise at home tonight, so I'm so disturbed! Please come back! After all, this is a disaster, we have to deal with it well, don't we? And it's so late again. ”
"Butler San'er, what's going on in your house?" Someone in the crowd suddenly shouted.
Because at night, there was not much light of fire and candles outside the door of Zhang's house, so San'er didn't see who the person who spoke was, so he could only stand in place and say to the crowd watching the excitement: "Oh! Nothing happened, so please don't worry too much, please go back quickly! ”
Seeing that people were almost gone, San'er hurriedly said to a few guards: "Take care of it, if someone gathers again, you will be persuaded to go directly, and you are not allowed to tell outsiders about tonight's affairs, understand?" ”
Several guards nodded their heads to show their understanding after listening to San'er's words, San'er saw that the matter had been done, and he turned around and began to walk towards his own courtyard, in fact, San'er was also very annoyed about this kind of thing, not to mention anything else, at most it was what happened in a person's home, and it had nothing to do with you outsiders, and when you heard the sound, you would run over without warning and ask this and that, if you want to say that you can do this thing, you can ask you to take a look, but since you can't do anything, you are still inquiring around, This kind of person San'er is the last person he wants to deal with.
persuaded to go outside the main gate to see the lively crowd, San'er hurried to the courtyard, after a while San'er felt that the surroundings were surprisingly quiet, raised his eyes and looked, only to see Zhang Renshan sitting on the chair that he had set up before, drinking the tea on the side, and then stepping on the side of the chair with one foot, and the other kept kicking the Wang Dahu, as if he was a rotten stone.
San'er walked over a few steps and said, "Young Master, what are you doing here?" ”
"The butler, this little thief didn't accept me, so I had to teach them a lesson," Zhang Renshan pursed his lips and took a sip of tea, then looked at Wang Dahu on the ground and said.
San'er had already guessed the rough idea of listening to Zhang Renshan's words, and it was estimated that it was Wang Dahu who caused the trouble with his mouth, after all, his mouth was no worse than Zhang Renshan, and he could say anything vicious, and he didn't care about the occasion.
Stretched out his hand and secretly compared to San'er is temporarily preventing Zhang Renshan from continuing to kick the king big tiger, turned around and spread some of the subordinates standing around him, and said to the big tiger on the ground: "Good man? Are you okay? ”
"Hmmmm......" Wang Dahu's voice on the ground said that although it came out, it was not a complete word, just a whimper, San'er quickly turned his head to take a look, it turned out that Wang Dahu's mouth was plugged by something, San'er hurriedly looked back at Zhang Renshan, Zhang Renshan was sitting on the chair at this time, and smiled slightly, San'er already understood who did this, and took out the things in Wang Dahu's mouth.
After the things in Wang Dahu's mouth were taken out by San'er, he quickly coughed twice and then began to scold, Zhang Renshan sat on the chair and frowned and looked at San'er and said, "Look! The inside of his mouth is not clean, and if he is not plugged, he will definitely not stop. ”
"Young master, don't be like him, I'll come for you, you go to the side to rest first" San'er knew that if Zhang Renshan was called to ask now, then this Wang Dahu would have to be skinned by him.
Seeing Zhang Renshan walking aside angrily, San'er turned his head to look at the three brothers on the ground, the big tiger was still unforgiving, and after scolding over and over again, the second tiger was already curled up in a place with his eyes closed and his face full of death, and he was about to pee his pants, but the Wang Sanhu was different from the two brothers, his face was calm as water, and he knelt aside, although he was speechless, he didn't feel afraid at all, San'er nodded and said in his heart: "This Wang Sanhu is really a talent, but his face does not change and his heart does not beat when he is dying. Isn't he really afraid that we'll clean them up? ”
After waiting, San'er saw that Dahu was also a little tired, and said, "How is a good man?" Are you thirsty in your mouth? ”
"No...... Not thirsty! Wang Dahu was almost dumb when he spoke, but he still pretended to be hard.
San'er chuckled lightly and said, "Okay! Not thirsty, right? Okay...... You keep scolding! ”
"I ...... I don't scold anymore, I'm tired! Wang Dahu's stubborn face pursed his mouth, but he still refused to beg for mercy.
San'er was about to tease the big tiger with words, but the three tigers said on the side: "Butler, you should pour a glass of water for my eldest brother!" His voice was hoarse. ”
"Oh! Are you begging me? San'er looked at Sanhu and knew that although he was able to speak well, how could he reason with this kind of thing.
Sanhu looked at San'er, and his eyes suddenly turned and said: "Butler, I know that you are a good person, and our three brothers deserve to be like this now, but human life is not noble or low, and it is not more good fortune for you to do more good deeds!" ”
"Hmph...... Good! Big Tiger, this is what your brother asked me to give you some water to drink, otherwise I won't care if you die of thirst" San'er didn't look at the big tiger on the ground, but stared at the three tigers and said.
Wang Dahu had already listened to all the words of the two just now on the ground, and his body struggled for a long time to sit up but failed, so he had to continue to lie on the ground and said: "Sanhu, you don't have to ask this person, they are now clear that they will not let us go, what soft words do you kid say to them." ”
"Big brother! If you can beg for some life! The third child didn't say anything else! Erhu suddenly said on the ground on the side.
When the big tiger heard this, he became even more angry, and roared at San'er: "What kind of heart do you kid have, you just want to see our brother surrender and beg for mercy!" Don't fight this idea, Lao Tzu won't be afraid of you, if you want to die, the three of us have to die together. ”
As soon as the big tiger finished speaking, the second tiger over there almost didn't faint, but closed his eyes and muttered: "It's over, it's over, it's over, it's all over now." ”
Sanhu still stayed calmly and said nothing, San'er didn't think so much, reached out and took a cup of tea, handed it to Dahu and said, "Hero? To drink or not to drink? ”
"No...... Don't drink! Not thirsty! Not hungry! Wang Dahu almost shouted out these words, San'er nodded and snickered and said, "Hmm! Sure enough, it's a hero! In that case, let's not bother so much, let me ask you two, did you come to our house a few days ago? ”
"Uh......" Wang Dahu was stunned for a moment, and his mouth suddenly closed, but Erhu was surprised on the side: "How do you know?" ”
"Two tigers! You ......" Wang Dahu saw that his brother had slipped his mouth and turned his head and glared viciously, San'er saw that it was really difficult to ask if he didn't stop Dahu's mouth now, so he stuffed back the rag ball that was taken out of Dahu's mouth, and couldn't speak, Wang Dahu was instantly quieter, San'er stood up from his side, and then walked to the curled up Erhu and said: "It seems that you know!" Tell me what happened to you that night. ”
"Uh...... This ......" Wang Erhu's body has been shaking, it seems that he is already scared, San'er can't let him pass out like this, so he quickly straightened it and said: "Erhu, don't be afraid!" I asked this not to find out what to do to you, but to ask you about the night. ”
"Really, really?" Erhu was already a little stumbling when he spoke, but his eyes, which were still closed just now, opened slightly after listening to San'er's words.
Seeing this, San'er knew that there was a door, so he hurriedly added a fire and said: "Really, as long as you tell the truth, I may let you go." ”
Wang Erhu was stunned when he heard this, and waited for a while and said, "Butler, this ...... I said, what do you want to know? ”
"It's what you saw and what you met that night" San'er looked at Wang Erhu, who was now full of joy, and sighed helplessly in his heart, this big tiger and the second tiger are simply two extremes, one is short-tempered and the other is timid and easy to deceive, no wonder the two can work together to do this, as for the three tigers, naturally there is no need to say anything else, it is estimated that the two brothers are good, and they are all given to him.
Wang Erhu listened to San'er's words and frowned carefully for a while, and after a while, Wang Erhu said: "It seems that we didn't see anything else that night, but when we were in that house, we suddenly fainted, and when we woke up, we went to the river, and the third child was still on the side, housekeeper, or are you asking my third brother?" ”
"Him! No, I'll ask you about this, are you sure that when you and Dahu entered the main hall, they fainted directly? Didn't you see or hear anything? San'er looked at Wang Erhu, and it didn't look like he was lying.
Wang Erhu himself was timid and saw that San'er didn't believe that he hurriedly said: "I really didn't lie to you about the housekeeper, when my eldest brother and I touched the house, we all wanted to do it, but suddenly there was a strange smell wafting from nowhere, my eldest brother also said at the time that the house had not been cleaned for a long time and it had already smelled, but after smelling the smell, I had no impression." ”
San'er glanced at Wang Erhu a few times and nodded, then turned around and looked at Wang Dahu on the ground and said, "Is what your brother said true?" ”
Wang Dahu's face was already purple with anger, but it was difficult to speak because his mouth was blocked, so he could only whimper on the ground, and when San'er's words came, Wang Dahu didn't say anything, San'er didn't care about him, he stood up, walked to Zhang Renshan's side and said: "Xian'er, it seems that things have been clear, the thieves that night were the three of them, but who the ghost Xiao Jiu saw at that time was, I still haven't figured it out, it is estimated that it should be related to the people of the Qilin Society." ”
Zhang Renshan also nodded after listening to San'er's words and said, "San'er doesn't have to think about this matter, didn't we also find some traces at that time!" The ghosts in the main hall that night were definitely pretended to be by the Kirin Society. ”
"Hmm...... There is also this possibility, but at that time, was their motive just for the copper tripod? San'er thought about everything that happened in this house before, and what the Qilin Club did made San'er feel a little wrong, but what was wrong San'er couldn't find it, and now the family has become like this again, even if you want to investigate, it's impossible.
The two discussed for a long time on the side, San'er thought about letting a few people go, but Zhang Renshan disagreed, saying that these wicked people who did bad things, letting them go would be equivalent to letting the tiger return to the mountain, what if they came to steal again, what should they do, they should be sent to the government to deal with it according to law, but San'er didn't think so, his original idea was similar to Zhang Renshan, but it wasn't until he met and talked to Wang Sanhu that he suddenly changed his mind, this person is different from his two brothers, he is righteous and speaks and does things very neatly, without the slightest thief, but more like a chivalrous man who has just arrived in the world, if this person is sent to the government now, then after being imprisoned, these three tigers will have to become a wasted person, but it is a pity that San'er is really unbearable, and the two have been arguing for a long time, San'er finally persuaded Zhang Renshan, turned around and returned to the side of the three brothers, San'er bowed his head and said: "Okay!" I've finished asking what I should ask, you have two ways to go now, I don't know if you want to hear from me? ”
While talking, San'er took down the rag in the big tiger's mouth, although the big tiger's mouth was hard, but after hearing San'er's words just now, he spat a few mouthfuls and said: "Boy, what do you have to say, come and listen!" ”
"Okay! The first one is to send you to the official to be dealt with...... "Before San'er finished speaking, the big tiger just opened his mouth and interrupted: "What do I think?" It turned out to be this road, so there's nothing to say, boy, you find someone! ”
"Huh! I haven't said a way to go! Do you want to hear it? San'er looked at the anxious Wang Dahu and said angrily.
"Oh! Hurry up, I'm tired of lying on my stomach," Wang Dahu twisted his body and looked back at San'er.
San'er didn't care about him, and continued to say unhurriedly: "This second way...... It's just that I want to let you go. ”
"Butler, this ...... Are you sure? Wang Erhu was already stupid when he heard San'er say "the first way", but when he suddenly heard San'er say that he was going to let them go, he suddenly came to his senses.
San'er didn't want to say any more nonsense, looked at the three brothers and said, "That's right, I want to let you go, but there are conditions, if you agree, you have to do it." ”
"On what terms?" Sanhu knelt on the side and turned his head to look at San'er.
"Hmph...... You are not allowed to steal in this shop again, and you will not steal anything in the future, it is better to take the right path than anything else" San'er looked at the second tiger and the big tiger with a surprised face on the ground.
The three brothers looked at each other, and they didn't say anything else, and the big tiger moved and said, "Boy, you won't be lying to us, right?" ”
"I lied to you? You really think big, I didn't let you go for your life, I was afraid that after sending the official, I would pity your third brother, he is definitely not the same as you, listen to me, be with your third brother, in the future, he will be able to have a little bit of interest between you" San'er moved his hand to help the king and the three tigers up.
Wang Dahu raised his eyes on the ground and looked at his brother, although there was nothing in his mouth, but his face had already understood a lot, San'er found a few subordinates, untied the rope tied to the big tiger and the second tiger, and took out some scattered silver taels from his arms, and handed them to the hands of the three tigers, then Wang Sanhu immediately waved his hand and said: "Butler, what are you doing here?" ”
"Don't take it, my money is not for your two brothers, it's for you, find a place to do some business, don't do anything more about stealing chickens and dogs" San'er moved his hand and stuffed the silver two into Sanhu's arms.
That Wang Sanhu looked at San'er with a thousand thanks: "The housekeeper's kindness, my Sanhu has written it down, if he can use me in the future, Sanhu will not hesitate to go to the soup." ”
"Hmm...... Good! San'er just wanted the three of them to leave safely, and didn't think about it so much, but what Sanhu said just now directly made San'er embarrassed.
Wang Dahu stood aside and said that he didn't speak, but his face was also a little strange, as if he wanted to say thank you but didn't want to say it, Wang Erhu didn't care so much, in San'er is generally picking good words, almost drying up his mouth, San'er is also tired of hearing his muttering and said: "Okay, don't make noise, you can remember, the condition for me to let you go is not to allow you to return to this shop, after all, there are already many people in this place who recognize your faces, and don't do evil and don't know the dangers of people's hearts, You'll have to do your own thing. ”
The three of them naturally didn't dare to say anything else, and after thanking them for their kindness, they quietly left through the night, Zhang Renshan and San'er stood at the main gate and watched a few people disappear into the distance before turning around, and Zhang Renshan said while walking: "Is San'er doing this well?" What if they don't listen to you and steal again? ”
San'er shook his head and turned his face to look at Zhang Renshan and said: "There are some things that we can't take care of Xian'er, but if we have the ability to do some things, then we might as well give it a try, what will happen to the three of them, I don't want to know, and I don't need to know, it's all about doing a good deed, and the prodigal son won't change his money!" ”
"I don't understand! San'er, what do you mean by that? Zhang Renshan blinked and looked at San'er.
San'er smiled and didn't say anything else, he pushed open the door of the gatehouse, and when he was about to go inside, he saw a person sitting at the table in the room......
