Chapter 22: Entanglement

Niu Dashan glanced back at him, and recognized at a glance that he was the handsome boy who inquired about the news for himself a month ago, and smiled: "In this cold day, business is not good, so change places, maybe business can get better." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info "Niu Dashan's words always reveal a kind of helplessness in his tone to outsiders.

Shen Xiuwen thought that he was from Wanlin Village, and maybe he knew the whereabouts of that person, so he asked, "Uncle, do you know that there is a person named Hu and Ping in Wanlin Village?" I heard that his father is still the village chief of Wanlin Village, and his daughter-in-law is a young lady from a large family in Ning County. ”

Niu Dashan listened to him, the smile on his face immediately retracted, and there was a trace of anger in his voice, "I know the person you said, seven years ago, he joined the Zheng family in Zhenning County, but he was originally a man with a wife and children, and he did not hesitate to kill his wife and children for the sake of glory and wealth, this kind of person should not live in the world." ”

Shen Xiuwen saw his cynical appearance and knew that he had asked the right person, Niu Dashan reacted after saying this, looked at him cautiously and said, "What are you asking him for?" ”

Shen Xiuwen suddenly slammed his fist on the table, and said with hatred: "You don't know, this person owes my friend a lot of money, and he hasn't paid it back for several years, and he has made my friend take on a debt in vain, if I find him, I will teach him a lesson for my friend, it's really hateful!" ”

Niu Dashan listened to his words and counted the person fiercely, and felt that he was a like-minded person, so he simply sat down opposite him, and his expression was quite angry: "This Hu and Ping are really not a thing!" Killing his wife and children at home, defrauding his friends of money, is simply unconscionable! ”

Shen Xiuwen sighed in response to the situation and said, "I have also been to the Zheng Mansion to look for him, but now the Zheng Mansion is uninhabited, and the mansion is overgrown with weeds, and there is not even a ghost." After that, there was another long sigh.

Niu Dashan raised his eyes to look at him, and finally reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a regretful expression: "I'm afraid that your friend's money will not come back, the Zheng family has long been gone, and Nahu and Ping are now begging beggars on the streets, living in a broken temple outside the county seat." ”

Shen Xiuwen and Lin Daiyun were both shocked. Shen Xiuwen was about to speak, but was preempted by Lin Daiyun, "What happened?" How did the Zheng family say that it was gone? ”

Niu Dashan said: "You don't know, a few years ago, Miss Zheng fell in love with the young owner of the medicinal herb shop in Dongcheng, Ning County, and secretly fornicated with him.

Hu and Ping were unhappy, but there was no way for a while, until the governor of Jiangzhou passed through Ning County, Hu and Ping intercepted the official sedan chair and presented evidence of the Zheng family colluding with officials in the DPRK and China to commit corruption, the Zheng family was ruined, but Miss Zheng was a person who must take revenge, although there was no evidence, but she bribed the storyteller to spread the sin of Hu and Ping killing his wife and children to everyone, and found someone to break Hu and Ping's legs, and even Hu and Ping's father did not let go, and burned down the old house in the village. ”

I didn't expect the Zheng family and the Hu family to end up like this, "This matter is so big, why have I inquired for so long, and I haven't heard anyone say it." Shen Xiuwen also asked the brothers of the dart bureau to help inquire before, but they couldn't find out the whereabouts of Hu and Ping, and no one knew about what happened to the Zheng family a few years ago.

Niu Dashan had long known that he would have questions, so he poked his head out of his noodle stall and looked left and right, making sure that there was no one around, so he retracted his head and said in a low voice: "Back then, the Zheng family was corrupt and perverted the law, and I heard that it was related to a certain minister in a high position in the court, so people in the know didn't dare to say it, and the people in the county town thought that Miss Zheng had offended someone by colluding with someone and committing adultery, and Hu and Ping hid in the beggars, and no one knew." ”

When Shen Xiuwen heard this, he raised his eyes and looked at Niu Dashan, frowned, and showed a suspicious expression, "Uncle, no one knows what you said, where did you hear it?" ”

When Niu Dashan heard him ask, the indignation on his face was immediately revealed, "Although the affairs of the Zheng family have been concealed, how can there be an impermeable wall in the world, and besides, I am also from Wanlin Village, so I naturally care more about this matter than others." ”

Shen Xiuwen dispelled the doubts in his heart, but he still didn't understand it at all, so he asked again: "Uncle, since the Zheng family's corruption and perversion of the law are related to the ministers of the DPRK and China, then the ministers should be punished, how can people who know not dare to reveal it?" ”

Niu Dashan sighed deeply and said: "Little brother, above the court, how can there be such a simple matter, the old lady of the Zheng family is responsible for protecting the family, and the governor of Jiangzhou is not a big official, although there are people above who support him, but compared to the minister in the court, it is still a big deal, after all, this matter only involves the minister, and the actual participants are a few henchmen and officials under the minister, and these officials are worried that the matter will be big, so they privately put this matter to the end." ”

Shen Xiuwen let out an "oh", looking clear.

A small Zheng family has involved so many court officials, I don't know how many people in the court are doing this kind of thing in private!

Thinking of this, Shen Xiuwen squinted, his gaze fell on Niu Dashan's body, and he glanced at it thoughtfully.

Lin Daiyun was a little confused when he heard it, what minister, what officials below, the more he listened, the more complicated it became, and his eyebrows were twisted together.

Niu Dashan probably saw that she couldn't figure it out, pointed to the noodle bowl on the table, and smiled: "Little girl, eat quickly, the noodles are cold." ”

Lin Daiyun let out an "oh" and picked up chopsticks to eat. Anyway, it's none of her business to fight openly and secretly in the court, it's better to fill your stomach.

Shen Xiuwen and Niu Dashan continued to chat for a few words, and the matter between the Zheng family and Hu and Ping was also figured out, and after a while, a few guests who were eating noodles came, and Niu Dashan went to work.

Lin Daiyun muttered while eating noodles: "It turns out that our Shen Xiucai and Shen Ergongzi are trying to find the negative man who lives up to Sister Qingqing." ”

The chopsticks in Shen Xiuwen's hand paused, and his gaze swept over her lightly, "I promised Qingqing that I would definitely help her." ”

Lin Daiyun heard that there was a sense of perseverance in his calm tone, and couldn't help but raise his head to look at him, somehow, at this glance, Shen Xiuwen's handsome face and deep eyes were deeply engraved into her heart.

Shen Xiuwen saw her strange expression, and kindly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

I didn't want her to stand up suddenly, so she stomped her foot and said, "Don't eat, I'm full." With that, he ran out of the noodle stall.
