Chapter 122 A Thousand Miles of Marriage
The figure near Lan Yi's window that night was a great hidden danger, and it was necessary to find out who this person was.
Wang Chengde listened to Zhou Weiji ask about the fist and foot kung fu of the Wang family's nursing home, and after thinking for a while, he said: "The fist and foot kung fu of the Wang family's nursing home is only average, not good. Our Meixian County is peaceful, there are very few bandits and thieves, most of the guards are like this, if it is better, I am afraid it is the Lan family. The Lan family is driving a dart game, and there are several big dart masters under him who are good at reaching out. β
"The Lan family? The Lan master book in the hall today is a member of the Lan family? Zhou Weiji asked, today in the hall, Lan Junzhi and Mi Yichao's appearance is inseparable, and Lan Junzhi is obviously defending Wang Mingli, Wang Er, and Wang Chunfa.
Wang Chengde nodded: "Not bad." Lan Junzhi is the son of the Lan family, but in their generation, it is only mediocre, the Lan family is powerful, not only in business, but also has many children who have embarked on official careers, and a few people are officials in Beijing. The children of the Lan family have been easy since elementary school, and each generation of family heads is easy to learn and attained, and can avoid evil, so the business of the Lan family has always been relatively smooth. β
This is also the reason why the Lan family can always be at the head of everyone in Mei County. Moreover, the Lan family is deeply aware of the truth that when the moon is full, it will only maintain a certain scale of business, and has not been expanding, and in addition to doing business, they focus more on studying metaphysics such as Taoism and easy numbers, which is based on the origin of the Lan family's family science, which is far from being comparable to the other three.
Gao Feng put down his chopsticks after hearing this, and asked curiously: "What Uncle Wang said is a bit mysterious, is the Lan family really so powerful?" β
Wang Chunrong nodded and said, "Senior Brother Gao, this is true. The Lan family can calculate your recent good fortune according to your birthday, the head of the Lan family is the most powerful, it is said that every time the old man of the Lan family opens a hexagram, he has to bathe and fast for three days, and he will invite Sanqing Daozun to light green incense, but there are few people who can ask him to open the hexagram. β
Zhou Weiji nodded: "Lan Junzhi has a very good relationship with Tian Zhixian, right?" β
Wang Chengde shook his head: "Lan Junzhi is sleek, he has a good relationship between Tianzhi County and Mi County, and he has a good relationship with both ends, if he really has a good relationship with him, it can't be said." Although he is not obvious in the Lan family's generation, I can't be considered unscrupulous when I look at Lan Junzhi, and he will definitely be a character in the future. β
After Wang Chengde's father and son were arrested and put in prison, Wang Mingli bribed the cell boss to make Wang Chengde submit to him, but Wang Chengde refused, so their father and son suffered a lot in the early days. Later, the old lady spent a lot of money to dredge it, and they were spared the pain of flesh and skin. But if Lan Junzhi hadn't greeted the cell boss, the two would not have been transferred to a single cell, and Chun Tao's mother could still bring them food, but I don't know if this is what Wang Mingli meant, or Lan Junzhi himself.
Gao Feng then asked: "In this way, Lan Junzhi is also a villain, such a person can be counted, and he will be the head of the Lan family in the future, and it will be lively." β
"The Lan family has a rule, the master of the family can't choose to follow the official career, and Lan Junzhi can't be the head of the family." Wang Chengde said.
Zhou Weiji lowered his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking, Wang Chunrong saw him like this, thought for a while and said: "Brother Tuesday, if you say that your fists and feet are good, each of the Lan family disciples has a personal bodyguard by his side, and it is very good to stretch out his hand." I remember when my uncle was alive, I went out with my uncle and the fourth master of the Lan family, and the bodyguard next to the fourth master of the Lan family easily let go of the four big men who blocked the way to collect money. β
Zhou Weiji's eyes deepened and asked, "How big is that bodyguard?" β
Wang Chunrong scratched his head: "You are not as big as Brother Tuesday, and you look similar to the fourth brother Gao." Brother Tuesday, you keep asking which kung fu is good, is something wrong? "Height has always been Wang Chunrong's heart disease. He and his little sister are as tall as their mother's little man, and his sister is okay, it's nothing that she's a petite girl, but she hates that she is seventeen years old and still hasn't grown, and it's already good if she hasn't been withdrawn from prison this year.
Thinking that he saw his sister rise a little taller yesterday, he was about to catch up with him, and Wang Chunrong was even more shocked.
Zhou Wei thought about it, and then told him what happened last night, and the three of them looked solemn when they heard it.
Gao Feng frowned and asked, "Second brother, is that person's hand really not under you?" "Zhou Weiji's outstretched hand he knows, it is considered superior in the army, if this thief's outstretched hand is not under the second brother, then this person must be a master.
Zhou Weiji nodded: "Not bad." Although this person has no murderous intent, since he came in the dark at night, there must be something unspeakable, so he must be on guard. Uncle Wang, Chun Tao took the child into the Wang family's house, and you have to worry more about your safety. β
The inner house is where women live, and Zhou Weiji, as a man with a foreign surname, naturally can't go to the inner house to protect them. Wang Chengde knew the severity of the matter, and he nodded: "The old lady will definitely leave the young master in her residence today, and I will go back later to tell the old lady that Chun Tao and the young master can't live alone in the same room, and arrange a few more maids and daughters-in-law to accompany them day and night." β
At present, it can only be like this, Zhou Weiji stood up: "It's okay." It's not too early now, so it's better for Uncle Wang to go back and make arrangements earlier. β
Wang Chengde responded, the safety of Chun Tao and the young master is currently his greatest concern, and there must be no mistakes.
The four of them walked out of the private room and went downstairs, and met Zhang Pingyu, the second son of the Zhang family, in the hall of the Fengxian Building.
Wang Chengde took Wang Chunrong forward and saluted: "Second Master Zhang, the little one is greeting you." β
Zhang Pingyu saw that it was Wang Chengde's father and son, and Yan SΓΉ's face smiled slightly: "Steward Wang doesn't have to be polite, these two are?" β
Wang Chengde hurriedly introduced: "These two are the messengers from Huang County, Dengzhou, who escorted Young Master Wenxuan back. β
When Zhang Pingyu heard that Wang Mingzhe's son Wen Xuan had returned, his smile became obvious, and his eyes looked at Zhou Weiji and Gao Feng a lot more eagerly: "Wen Xuan and his sister-in-law are back?" This is a great joy. Pingyu and Wenxuan's father are close friends, and I would like to thank the two poor masters for escorting them. I don't know how the two of you will arrange it today, it is better to enjoy your face and live in Fengxian Building for a few more days, so that Pingyu can fulfill the friendship of the landlord. β
Zhou Weiji and Gao Feng shook their heads and thanked them, Zhang Pingyu was not reluctant, turned his head to Wang Chengde and said, "After Mrs. Sister-in-law and Wenxuan settle down, I will go to the house to ask for peace." β
Wang Chengde smiled and said, "Second master, my wife has not returned. The lady left the Wang family with the young master that day and had an accident. β
Zhang Pingyu's smile also froze after hearing this, and he nodded and said: "It's a blessing that Wenxuan can come back safely, Steward Wang, you greet the two poor masters first, and we'll talk about it another day." Our peony steaming brew in Fengxian Building can still be eaten, Shengzi, you go and get two bottles of wine for the two poor masters to bring. β
Zhang Sheng, the little guy behind Zhang Pingyu, hurriedly turned around and took out two gourds of peony steaming brew in front of the counter, and now the peony steaming brew is sold for five taels of silver per gourd, Zhang Sheng has been with Zhang Pingyu for a long time, and naturally knows that his friendship with the uncle of the Wang family is not strange to see the master who has always been unsympathetic so generous.
Wang Chengde was also not polite, and directly thanked Zhang Pingyu for taking the two gourd wines, and the four of them walked out of the inn. When Wang Chunrong and Zhang Sheng staggered by, Zhang Sheng bumped his shoulder and whispered: "We haven't gotten together since you came out, come over for a small bar tomorrow night?" β
The young master wanted to inquire about the affairs of the Wang family, and Zhang Sheng, as his personal servant, naturally understood the meaning of the master. He and Wang Chunrong have dealt with each other a lot with their masters, and they are very compatible, and Wang Chunrong can also learn about what happened to the Wang family recently.
"Cheng, call a few little brothers, and I'll invite everyone to drink tomorrow." Wang Chunrong nodded in response, cats have cat paths, mice have rat paths, he has been closed to news for more than a year, and he is also looking for Zhang Sheng to ask Zhang Sheng a few questions about what happened in Meixian recently, and secretly investigate the dark shadow of the county government last night.
Wang Chengde returned to Wang's house and reminded the old lady to pay attention to the safety of Wenxuan and Chuntao's residence, and put it aside for the time being. However, it was said that after Zhou Weiji sent Gao Feng to leave Meixian, he and Wang Chunrong went to the mass grave outside the city to look for Wang Linshan's bones.
Wang Linshan died of illness, so his bones were cremated before being buried in the ground. The burial place, Wang Chunrong still remembers that he dug it out from under an old tree after searching around the forest and handed it to Zhou Weiji.
Zhou Weiji opened the lid and looked at it, then wrapped the ashes in his hand and asked, "Chunrong, why did you use my brother when you were looking for your wife's household registration?" Isn't it just a coincidence? β
Zhou Weiji is Chuntao's life-saving benefactor, and Wang Chunrong naturally knows everything about him: "Most of them are coincidental, at that time, my father invited someone from the Lan family to open a hexagram to the young master, saying that going north from Mei County will definitely be able to save the day, and at that time I thought about arranging for my wife and young master to go to Zhuangzi in the north of the city to take refuge for a while." That Zhuangzi has already left Meixian County, so he naturally needs to bring his household registration to prevent anyone from inquiring, so my father asked me to find a household registration identity north of Meixian, and I remembered Wang Xiucai, who had just died. He lived in our store for a long time, I met him a few times, and I knew that he was a native of Dengzhou, north of Meixian County, with no brothers and sisters at home, and his parents died early, so it was not easy to travel with his household registration. β
Zhou Weiji carried Wang Linshan's ashes silently, and Wang Chunrong then sighed: "At that time, we just wanted to cover it up with a household registration road, and I could escort my wife and young master to Zhuangzi to live temporarily." Who knew that something like this happened later, Tao'er actually took Young Master Wenxuan all the way to Wang Xiucai's hometown to settle down, and this time it was more than a year. At that time, I didn't receive Mrs. and them, so my father sent someone to Huang County to inquire, and later I didn't send back the news that I found Tao'er and the young master over there, but I didn't expect it to be a front and back. β
yes, who would have thought? Zhou Weiji thought silently, if it weren't for the change in the Wang family, Steward Wang would not have hastily arranged for Lan Yi and the three of them to leave; If Wang Linshan hadn't lived in Wang's inn, Wang Chunrong would not have thought of using his household registration as a fake household registration; If it weren't for the carriage on a business trip, Wen Xuan's mother fell off the cliff and died, and the girl lost her memory, she would not have taken Wen Xuan to Huang County for a thousand miles to settle down; If it weren't for the girl who went to Wang Linshan's house in Beigou Village, how could she and her become neighbors?
Fate is really so wonderful sometimes; Since you have encountered it, you should cherish it. R1152
