Chapter 16: Destroying the Gate

In the next few days, the three of Nie Xiaofan's sisters and brothers would go to Fu'an Hall early to greet Mrs. Nie, but no one was allowed to enter. The three of them looked at each other and smiled, bowed to Fu'an Hall and came back.

After lunch, Nie Xiao'e will come to her to be a female celebrity together. Most of the time she watched Nie Xiao'e's master and servant walk the line in minutes, and later Liu Xin saw that her skills were itchy and joined the ranks of female celebrities. Liu Yu is the happiest, and she has a lot of fun with the little girls in the yard.

Nie Xiaofan thinks that it is not bad to have such a peaceful day. It is said that if you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing in the future. Nie Xiaofan didn't expect any future blessings, so he calmly watched Nie Xiaonian marry a wife and have children. And then marry the person she always wanted to marry. Smoothly live this life for her, and it is best to have a good life. Don't fly to wreak havoc, this day couldn't be more beautiful!

Old lady Nie finally went to the yamen to withdraw one afternoon to reward the silver, and it seemed that he was sure that he could not squeeze money from the second wife.

On the appointed day, Nie Xiaofan got up early and prepared to go out. Looking at the small and delicate face in the bronze mirror. After more than half a month of raising, although he is still thin, his face is slightly better. Nie Xiaofan wore a moon-white collared gown and a long bamboo skirt embroidered on a white background. Then put on a jasper silver hairpin. Fang Cai pulled Nie Xiaonian to wait outside the second gate.

The two of them didn't wait long when they stood on the second door, and the old lady Nie came over in a hurry.

"You went to Jiang's house to talk about business, what are you going to do in Xiao Nian?

Nie Xiaonian showed a disappointed look, he really wanted to go. Nie Xiaofan was about to speak, when he saw four or five maids coming around Lian's family.

Lian is around thirty years old, wearing gold silk beaded sideburns, a silver auspicious cloud vertical collar long jacket, and a pair of Hetian jade bracelets on his hands. Supported by a maid. Although the clothing items are not gorgeous, they are gentle and atmospheric.

Lian came over with a smile and gave the old lady a blessing. Old Madam Nie turned her head away from her.

"Meet my aunt!" Nie Xiaofan's sister and brother saluted respectfully, and Mrs. Nie was so angry that her mouth was crooked.

Lian stepped forward to help the two children up, and then took Nie Xiaofan's hand and said, "Good boy, it's okay now." Your grandmother was so happy when she saw it!"

After saying that, she walked out with one hand, and the old lady Nie was quick-eyed, and dragged Nie Xiaonian, who was about to follow, back and pulled him back.

Lian frowned, she didn't want to lose her dignity by arguing with the old lady at this time, and said to Nie Xiaofan: "It's okay, it's the same for Xiao Nian to see her grandmother another day." ”

Nie Xiaofan couldn't either, so he had to follow Lian Shi into the carriage. Liu Xin and Liu Yu took a carriage in the back.

As soon as he got into the carriage, Lian patted Nie Xiaofan's hand and said with a smile: "Today, your aunt and grandmother were worried about you and asked me to take you to meet you." In order to hide from the old lady, I lied about business. Let's go to Prime Minister Zhou's house in the inner city first, and then come back to see your grandmother?"

Nie Xiaofan nodded and didn't ask much. She guessed early in the morning that it might be her grandmother who wanted to see her, but she didn't expect that Mrs. Zhou also cared about her. It seems that the old man usually asks about her frail granddaughter from Lian's here.

This alley is called Mao'er Hutong, and when you go out from Nie's Mansion, you have to go through Lian's mansion to get out of this alley. Outside the gate of Xifu, Lian planned to leave directly, but he heard a commotion outside the car. Lien stopped the car. Motioned for a mother-in-law to go out and have a look.

After a while, the woman came back and replied, "Madam, it is the outer room of the last year's champion in the house next door, and because she is pregnant, she invited a Taoist to do it, and it was passed out." Mr. Liu knew about it, and now Mr. Liu personally came to arrest him, and now he is clamoring to expel him from the school. ”

The mother-in-law said teasingly, and Nie Xiaofan heard it in a fog. What kind of champion Lang, outer room, Mr. Liu, expelled from the division, this relationship is really unclear.

Lian Shi was not surprised, obviously knowing the inside story, she said angrily: "Who told you to listen to other people's gossip? What are we arguing in front of the door? Did you ask?"

The woman said: "There are two Taoists, why don't you say that our house is close to the house, and we want to give our family a way to go to disaster?"

Lian was busy going out, and was a little angry: "What's the disaster? You go and ask Aunt Yu to take a few taels of silver and send them away, isn't it bad luck to be entangled in front of our house early in the morning?"

The mother-in-law said yes, go down and order Aunt Yu like this, and the Lian family ordered the coachman to set off.

The carriage took a few steps forward, and Nie Xiaofan clearly heard a few crying sounds.

"Master, please, this is my concubine for my husband. I let her in, please! Don't let the husband go!" This is a woman's cry, how can she be in the main room when she speaks, why do you still plead for the outer room?

"Xianggong, Xianggong, you have divorced your concubine! The concubine can't affect you" This is a charming woman. The cry is so sad.

Nie Xiaofan was puzzled when he heard this, why didn't the master allow the apprentice to take a concubine or what? The carriage gradually moved forward, leaving all the noise behind.

There was an hour from the Nie family to the Zhou family, and Nie Xiaofan couldn't hold back his curiosity, as if he had unintentionally asked the Lian family about Mr. Liu.

The carriage was bored, and Lian was happy to chat with her: "This old Mr. Liu is a legend!"

Lian is very good at chatting and telling stories is also fascinating. Nie Xiaofan was stunned when he heard it.

Mr. Liu's original name was Liu Xiao, he was a doctor, with excellent medical skills, and he was good at gynecology. He had been lifted. But these are not the reasons for his legend.

What makes Mr. Liu legendary is not his medical skills, but his apprentices!

Mr. Liu opened a pharmacy in the capital 35 years ago and named it "Qianjintang". Attending gynecology. He would also take orphans as apprentices. Everyone said that he was a good man, with high medical skills and a good heart.

It wasn't until ten years later that one of Dr. Liu's apprentices was admitted to the top prize!

An apprentice in Langzhong, a high school champion. The news instantly spread all over the streets and alleys of the capital. People thought that he would only teach medicine. After all, the other children adopted by Dr. Liu all learned medical skills.

"What's this?" said Dr. Liu, "He wants to take the road of the imperial examination, I just teach him, I have to teach him a way to make a living!"

Only then did people get to know Dr. Liu in detail, and it turned out that he had been lifted by the lift! At this moment, people of all sizes in the capital were vying to invite Dr. Liu to be the seat of the West. But Dr. Liu refused one by one, and he wanted to guard the Qianjin Hall.

If Dr. Liu doesn't come to the door, everyone wants to send the child to Qianjintang to study.

"Yes!" said Dr. Liu, "but I only accept ten apprentices a year, and I have to promise one condition!"

Everyone said that not to mention one condition, a hundred can be done!

And Dr. Liu's condition is very simple, he does not charge tuition. However, it is required that men who come to study should not be allowed to take concubines for life. Otherwise, they will be expelled from the school and the annual tuition fee will be liquidated by 1,000 taels!

This requirement is not high, but it has also eliminated a large number of children. Dr. Liu began to teach in the backyard of Qianjintang, teaching medical skills and the Four Books and Five Classics and other imperial examinations.

In the past 20 years, Dr. Liu has become Mr. Liu. He also taught two champions and a number of jinshi.

Here we have to talk about the champion of the outer room just now.

said that this champion's surname was Pei, and he was a son of a poor family. At the beginning, Mr. Liu accepted him as an apprentice, and he also made a guarantee, and he could not take a concubine for the rest of his life. After going to the Golden Palace, he won the roll call in high school. It was edited by the Hanlin Academy.

His original wife, who gave birth to two daughters in ten years, was childless under his knees. His parents were so anxious that they were afraid that he would be killed.

Dasheng law, the wife of the chaff does not go to court. Master Pei's parents secretly found him an innocent woman as a concubine. Naturally, the woman couldn't enter Pei's house. Master Pei searched all over the capital, and finally chose a long-idle five-entry house in Maoer Hutong, a magnificent and cheap house. Master Pei didn't care why the house was cheap, and immediately took the woman to the house after buying it, and lived a happy life.

The woman had some ideas, and as soon as she moved in, she began to inquire why this house was cheap, but what was the unknown?

Within two months, I found out that this house was the private property of the once prosperous wife of the Zhu family. Not to mention that the Zhu family had committed a crime more than ten years ago, and even this house was very unknown. It turned out that the year before the Zhu family's accident, Mrs. Zhu gave birth to twin baby girls. Because the twin girls were regarded as ominous, Mrs. Chu secretly asked people to replace the big girls with male babies. The nominal eldest daughter of the Zhu family was sent to this house to be raised privately.

After the Zhu family committed the crime, the matter was also investigated. When Mrs. Zhu was detained by the Jinyi guard and brought to this house, the baby girl had already been abused to death by the evil slave. Mrs. Zhu hugged the body of the baby girl and fainted from crying.

The case was decided, the Zhu family was all over the house, and the house was also sold by the imperial court, and a wealthy businessman moved in. But not long after, the three children of the rich merchant fell ill at the same time. Frightened, the rich merchant hurriedly moved.

People said that the baby girl was too resentful and was abandoned by her own mother just after birth. One day the Zhu family's wealth is not enjoyed. After the Zhu family had an accident, her mother personally brought Jinyiwei to arrest her to suffer the crime.

When the concubine found out about this, she thought that the family would bring me here without asking anything, and when I gave birth to a son in the future, she would quietly send me away. On the sly. She didn't think too well! She quietly spread the rumor that the murderous mansion had been bought. Success has attracted people's attention. When the little concubine was pregnant, she told Master Pei that the fetus was unstable.

The little concubine had calculated that Master Pei would take her into the mansion and give her a name justifiably. But where did Master Pei dare to take such a risk? His brothers and sisters all kept their promises, but if they didn't keep it, he couldn't afford to lose this person. Secondly, he can't afford to pay off his tuition for fifteen years!

Master Pei pondered and asked a few Taoist priests to do the practice, and An Yi's heart in the outer room. Who would have thought that the next day the city was full of wind and rain: the murderous mansion was actually lived in the outer room of Master Pei? Mr. Liu's apprentice actually raised the outer room? This news naturally also reached the ears of Mr. Liu, who was guarding outside this house early this morning, and sure enough, he saw this kid wearing official uniforms and coming out of this house!

The matter only then developed into the scene that Nie Xiaofan heard, Mr. Liu insisted on severing the master-apprentice relationship, and asked the Pei family to hand over the tuition fees for these years, otherwise he would go to Yingtianfu to sue him!

(To be continued)

I suddenly want to say two words, first of all, I want to thank you for the recommendation votes and reward support for drinking water and being afraid of choking. Love you. (But the author thinks that the recommendation vote is good, and the reward is really deserved!)

Secondly, I want to tell you that the author is a newcomer, and he is too new to be a newcomer.

Although newcomers need care, opinions and suggestions are also essential! So everyone is ready to have bricks in their hands, and if you see what is wrong with the author, just shoot! (As long as you speak civilly, I can bear it if you don't hit the head and any part below the head!)

There are two important foreshadowings in this chapter, and I think I must write it well, but it turns out that it has been rushed out at the last minute.

Forget it, I'm a bit confused!
