Chapter Ninety-Four: Robbery While the Fire is Burning

Everything started because of the Oiran peony of Linlang Pavilion. Noya had heard the bellflower mention it before, saying that it was the peony who was originally the concubine of Liang Yuanwai, a large businessman in the suburbs of Beijing, and was quite favored in front of the master, and attracted the head of the house, Lian's grudge, and framed her for fornicating with her subordinates, and was whipped, and specially confessed that the traffickers sold it into Linlang Pavilion. Because she has a good foundation, a bewitching appearance, and has been adjusted and taught by the old bustard, she knows some means, so she has become the pillar of Linlang Pavilion.

Let's say that the original head of the peony family, Liang Yuanwai, has been doing business abroad all the year round, and the Lian family can't bear the loneliness at home, so he hooked up a military general surnamed Pan Mingyou, who has a small official position in Beijing, and has a small background and background. has always been domineering, and he will talk flatteringly, coaxing the main mother Lian around, and a lot of silver is spent on him.

There is no impermeable wall in the world, and the ambiguity of the two people reached Liang Yuanwai's ears, and he rushed back to the mansion from Cangzhou Mansion with great momentum, and caught the two people who were turning over the clouds and rain. Since ancient times, the people did not fight with the officials, but the hatred of taking the wife was not shared, and Liang Yuanwai was angry for a while, and he did not measure his strength to move with the general, and he died and ended up with a "violent illness and death". The entire hard-earned family business fell into the hands of the adulterer and the wife.

Originally, these things had nothing to do with Linlang Pavilion, and things in the partial world were so coincidental, and the military general Pan You was not a safe man, and when he was rich, he often visited the Qinglou, and he was fascinated by the peony and snubbed the Lian family. The tigress learned about it from others, so she gave birth to the following catastrophe.

Na Lian's original jealousy of the peony's flower and moon appearance, as a result, the new hatred followed the old hatred, and the heart was angry, so he had a poisonous plan and proposed to Pan You to redeem the peony and return to the house to serve him. The military general didn't know the twists and turns inside, so he naturally couldn't ask for it, and said that this woman was virtuous.

The tigress came forward, sent someone to Linlang Pavilion, and proposed to the old lady to redeem herself for the peony. The peony is the pillar of the Linlang Pavilion, and it is the most pleasing to the old bustard, the old bustard is naturally reluctant, the lion opened his mouth, and asked for a sky-high price.

If the tigress is willing to spend more silver taels, it will not cause an accident, but she relies on the fact that she now has someone in the court as a backer, so she is rampant, and she insists on redeeming herself at the price of selling peonies to Linlang Pavilion.

Peony naturally knew that this tigress had redeemed herself, and she must have no good intentions, and a hundred were reluctant, mourning and pleading. And the old bustard didn't know the changes in the business, and relied on his own business for many years, with rich connections, and a lot of knowledge of the head snake, so he didn't look at a merchant woman in his eyes, and he didn't agree with a word, and found someone to seriously injure the person sent by the tigress.

The military general Pan You lost face, so he was naturally angry, and took a group of people to Linlang Pavilion to smash them all, all of them were smashed into a mess, and then arrested the turtle man, put him in prison, tortured him in every way, and blackmailed the old bustard to redeem the turtle with a huge amount of silver taels or the entire Linlang Pavilion.

Although the old bustard often calls and drinks to the turtle on weekdays, he doesn't have a good face, but the two have been together for so long, and they still have a relationship, and they are also a companion when they are ready to get old. Besides, even if the old bustard doesn't redeem the turtle father, the military general will definitely not give up.

The old bustard came to the door one by one, to ask for those who thought they were in place in the background, and after hearing the ins and outs, they inquired about the background of the general, and waved their hands again and again to drive the old bustard out of the door. It's not that the identity of the military general is so good, but these people are the old bustard's wine and meat benefactors, and on weekdays, they blow the cowhide loudly in front of the girl, and "bang" pat their hearts to pack tickets, pull relationships, set almost, it's coming, who wants to offend colleagues for an old bustard? All of them are the Lords who turn their faces and deny people.

There are also people who should be happy, but they stretched out their hands to ask the old bustard for silver taels, saying that it was used up and down, and the old bustard was like a desperate life, and he rushed to the doctor in a hurry, and the silver like flowing water was sent out, and there was no sound. Later, I found out that it was all in the pockets of those people.

Now, the silver two flowers are seventy-seven eighty-eight, and Linlang Pavilion has been tossed to the point that it is full of holes, and it is impossible to continue to make a living. The old bustard was so worried that he couldn't sleep and eat, and after thinking about it, only Noya climbed the high branch of the General's Mansion and was able to save himself and the turtle father.

The old bustard begged Noya pitifully, and his voice was hoarse: "Although it was true that my mother had eyes and didn't know gold and jade, she treated you slowly." But, in all fairness, Mom has never forced you to keep your body alive to have today's good fortune. That's it, girl, you can't die without help! ”

Noah was a little embarrassed: "Mom, it's not that Noah doesn't want to help you, but there is really nothing you can do." I'm just a small concubine, although the ninth master is promoted, but I also have to have self-knowledge. Even if there is something wrong with Na Lian and Pan You in this matter, it is you who stretch out your hand to beat people, and you also beat people to serious injuries, so it is reasonable for the yamen to arrest people. If the Ninth Master intervenes, it will be favoritism, abuse of power for personal gain, and oppress the weak.

What's more, you also know the situation in my house, the old lady is most disgusted with people like us because the ninth master is good at looking for flowers and asking willows. I sneaked out to see you today, all at great risk, if the old lady knows, it is inevitable that I will be punished, let alone I go to beg them, isn't it boring to be self-deprecating? Don't steal a handful of rice, and in the end it will be self-defeating. ”

The old bustard was so anxious that he cried, and he couldn't wait to lie on the ground and roll on the ground: "Girl, you are now my mother's last hope, if you can't help me anymore, I can only die." The Linlang Pavilion on the left and right has returned to the side surname, and I don't even have a place to settle down, and it is only a matter of time before I die of cold and starvation. ”

"Then my mother should also know that if I ask the ninth master to help you, and the old lady knows about it, I will also be dead. Unfavored women are squeezed everywhere in this deep mansion compound, and they are no different from the walking dead. Noah said and walked away.

The old bustard grabbed Noya's sleeve behind him, and pleaded with a wailing voice: "Girl, please, as long as you are willing to promise to save the lives of the two of us, you will have a way to live in the future. ”

Noah turned around, sighed deeply, and said: "Mom, it's not that Noah is wise enough to protect herself, but she is really powerless, and her teacher is unknown and she is at a loss, I can't ask for this." ”

The old bustard burst into tears, his face was confused, and he couldn't care about wiping it: "Don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, even if you refuse to help me, you have to think about those sisters who share weal and woe with you." Peony said that if this Linlang Pavilion really fell into the hands of the tigress, she would hit her head on the pillar and never survive. ”

Noah sneered: "I really don't have any friendship with them. Besides, Peony is not so extreme, and the woman's methods are not necessarily half as ruthless as your mother. ”

The old bustard blushed and said regretfully: "It is said that karma is retribution, maybe I did too hard in the past, so that I can be in prison today, if I can pass this threshold safely, I will never persecute them in the future." ”

Hearing that she was sincere, not like a fake acting, Noah lowered her head and thought for a moment before she raised her head and said, "If you can really save your mother and turtle safety, what does your mother plan to do in the future?" Stay open? ”

The old bustard said dejectedly: "There is now only an empty shelf left in Linlang Pavilion, which has been smashed beyond recognition, and the silver taels have all been lost. Even if it can be saved, there is no gold and silver repair, and the business cannot be done, and the horizontal and vertical are all dead, how can they still open for business?

Originally, I was thinking deeply, if I was desperate, I gave Linlang Pavilion to the turtle grandson, leaving the green mountains left and right without worrying about the lack of firewood, but it was a pity that the peony fell into the hands of the turtle grandson and the dominatrix, and there was definitely no way to live. I just want to come over and beg you, but I really don't want to take this step unless I have to. ”

"You can exchange Linlang Pavilion and find a good home for the peony and them, and the remaining silver exchanged should be enough for you to support your old age."

The old bustard sighed deeply: "Now that my life is still difficult to protect, what are you still thinking about in the long run?" Besides, we got into a lawsuit, and the surname Pan refused to give up, who would dare to take this Linlang Pavilion? ”

Noya groaned for a moment, thought for a moment, raised his head and said, "What if I say I dare to take it?" ”

The old bustard was stunned, raised his head in shock, and looked at Noah: "You, you mean ......"

Nuoya nodded: "If Linlang Pavilion is under my name, the Ninth Master will definitely help, and even if it is a famous teacher, then the generals and women will definitely not dare to trouble you again." I promise that you don't need to spend a tael of silver to settle the matter. ”

The old bustard thought of giving away her life's work to others, especially this person is a girl who has been adjusted and taught by herself, she took it for herself without much effort, and did not spend a penny of copper plates, so her heart was naturally a little unbalanced, and she did not say anything for a while.

"Thinking of the past, after the matter is completed, I want eighty percent of the shares, and I will find a way to protect the turtle safety and security. If you make money in the future, you will have no worries about the two shares. For you, there are pros and cons. Noah deliberated and deliberated.

"This, let me think about it." The old bustard couldn't turn around for a while, and his heart was uncomfortable, if someone else fell into the well like this, he would endure it if he asked for Linlang Pavilion, and he was born to be Noya, so he was naturally reluctant.

"If mom is embarrassed, forget it. lest I bear the charge of relying on the strong and bullying the weak, and I will be a robber here for you. ”

Noya was not reluctant, turned around and left, less than three steps, the old bustard summed up the gains and losses, knowing that for himself, this method was already the best of both worlds, and quickly caught up in a panic: "It's me who was confused for a while, the ghost was confused, and I didn't know your kindness, and all this is still troublesome for you." ”

Noah smiled slightly: "It's too early to admit to you, after all, it's just my wishful thinking." Whether the ninth master agrees, whether he can pass the old lady's hurdle, is uncertain. But I'll definitely do my best. ”

When the old bustard heard her say this, he was a little anxious, and begged with kind words, lest Noah regret it again, and he would really be cornered.

Noah snorted coldly in her heart, and then she understood what it meant to toast without eating and drinking. Looking at the old bustard, he asked seriously: "I have one more thing to ask you, you must answer truthfully, and you must not say half a fake word!" ”

"Just ask, if I dare to tell half a lie today, I won't die well!" The old bustard solemnly swore an oath.

Striking while the iron was hot, it was already time for the fire, and Noya asked word by word: "How much do you know about my background and origin?" ”
