Chapter 68: From now on, Xu Qian is a passerby

Su Xian Ling was already waiting in the hall at this time, Xu Qian came in to greet him, Su Xian Ling smiled at him, and said, "Sit down and talk back." ”

Xu Qian shook his head and said, "My lord, the students will return to their hometowns in a while, and they will leave after just talking to the adults here." ”

"Are you going home? Where are you from? Su Xianling's expression was very reserved, but the relationship between the two was quite close, so it was not embarrassing.

Xu Qian said: "The student Zhoupu is not far from Qiantang. ”

Su County Ling Fu nodded, and said: "Zhoupu is not far from here, and under the rule of this official, it has always been peaceful there, and this county is not worried about you, yes, you are loyal and good, after Ling Zu's deeds, this county has already heard of it, so I plan to make a plaque and order someone to send it to the Xu clan, you go first, and the plaque will arrive immediately." ”

Xu Qian knew in his heart that this plaque was actually earned by himself, who called himself a good relationship with Su Xianling? He smiled slightly, but did not refuse, and thanked him: "Thank you for your kindness." ”

Su Xianling's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said calmly: "You can go back to your hometown with peace of mind, but the college exam is imminent, but you can't waste your studies, although you are visiting relatives, you must also review your homework from time to time." At present, the affairs of the county are busy, and it is reported that there are many lawbreakers, who actually collude with the gentry to do some transactions that are prohibited by the imperial court......" Su Xian Ling sneered and continued: "As a county parent, how can you stand by and watch the safety of one party, just do it, there is still official business in this county, you should leave quickly." ”

Xu Qian withdrew, and about the last words of Su Xianling, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart: "Outlaws who collude with the gentry? Doing prohibited buying and selling? Seemingly...... Some people are going to be out of luck. ”

Thinking of this, Xu Qian was neither happy nor angry, because this was already expected, the county order of breaking the family is not for fun, don't look at the usual weakness, but if you are really in a hurry, you can do everything. Not to mention that there are many families who have lost their fame, are gentry who have lost their fame still considered gentry? At best, he was a rich squire.

Out of the yamen, the hired car outside was already waiting outside the yamen, Zhao Mengting should not show her head, sitting in the carriage without making a sound, Deng Jian sat on the wheel, and the coachman boasted about his heroic deeds, but unfortunately the coachman with short clothes and trouser legs did not have much interest in Deng Jian's so-called one as ten, and the whole person leaned on the carriage to doze.

Seeing that it was Xu Qian coming, Deng Jian stroked his palms and smiled: "It's here, are you going to leave now?" ”

Xu Qian said: "Naturally, you should leave now, and if you don't leave, it will be too late." He looked at Deng Jian and saw that Deng Jian was dressed tightly and was very bloated.

Xu Qian couldn't help but ask, "Does Brother Deng feel cold?" ”

Deng Jian said with a straight face: "Cold, I have recently hit the yin, and I feel cold all over my body, just don't talk about this, get in the car quickly." ”

Xu Qian got into the carriage, and Zhao Mengting, who was sitting inside, had a crimson face, and hurriedly curled up to the side, afraid that she would have some skin-to-skin relationship with Xu Qian.

Xu Qian said embarrassedly: "When I become the prefect of 100,000 snowflakes and silver in the future, I will definitely hire twenty cars when I go out, one for me, one for you, and the other eighteen will be empty, but now I am short of money, cough cough...... You can only squeeze it. ”

Zhao Mengting blushed and nodded, as if she remembered something, and said, "Shouldn't you sit in a sedan chair if you are a master?" Besides, you haven't become an official yet, so why do you think about ......?"

Xu Qian straightened his face and said, "If you don't want to be rich and noble, it's better to go home and sell sweet potatoes."

Zhao Mengting asked curiously: "What is a sweet potato?" ”

Xu Qian was entangled...... I had to cough and say, "Okay, I'm going to meditate and use my brain to figure out the meaning of the Eight Strands of Sutra." After saying that, he closed his eyes, and looked like an old monk was in a settled posture.

Zhao Mengting said in a hurry: "Master Xu, don't be in a hurry to figure it out, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not." ”

At this time, the carriage had begun to start, the carriage shook slightly, Zhao Mengting lost her balance for a while, and actually leaned slightly to Xu Qian's side, the two leaned together, Zhao Mengting hurriedly dodged, her body arched nervously, and she didn't dare to relax for a moment.

Xu Qian suddenly found that the stubborn Zhao Mengting gradually became shy.

Xu Qian smiled bitterly, if this was placed in his previous life, such a woman would not be able to find it even if she was afraid of the lantern, and thought to herself: "Okay, she is a lady who guards herself like jade, and I am a gentleman who does not sit still, Amitabha, Amitabha......"

After making up his mind, Xu Qian suddenly found that his spirit had been sublimated.

After being embarrassed, Zhao Mengting bit her lip and said, "Brother Deng is wearing such clothes, not because he is afraid of the cold, but because he ...... Be self-conscious. ”

Xu Qian was stunned for a moment, and soon came to his senses, this guy was wearing such thick clothes because he was ready to be beaten, he slapped his thigh, and couldn't help but say, "Shameless."

Ah shameless, what a scum, usually boasting so much, it turned out to be an embroidered pillow, I was going to let him come to the town for me, but he was really ready to be beaten. Why didn't you tell me earlier, I knew that I would have worn a few more clothes to go out. ”

Zhao Mengting looked at Xu Qian and said, "It turns out that you and Brother Deng are also afraid of being beaten." ”

Xu Qian said confidently: "If a gentleman does not set up a dangerous wall, it is naturally good to be prepared." I'm a scholar, and of course a scholar is more expensive, not like some rough-skinned and rotten guys. ”

As soon as the curtain was lifted, Deng Jian, who was sitting outside the carriage, came out angrily and glared at Xu Qian: "Who are you scolding?" ”

………………

It took only two hours to go from Qiantang County to Xu Qian's hometown Zhoupu, and at noon, Yaojiawu arrived, where the peaks and peaks rise, walking in the mountain road, passing through an acre of mountain fields, and there is a village in front.

Xu Qian had come with Xu Chang once, and he inherited the memory of the nerd in the past, so he immediately recognized the village in front of him, which was a large-scale village, and the towering ancestral hall could be seen from a distance, but this ancestral hall was not the Xu family, but the Yao family.

The Xu family is only a small surname for the entire village, so they live in another part of the peak, and the whole big village is full of 200 households, and the Xu family only has 60 or 70 households.

When the carriage arrived in front of the village, Deng Jian saluted, and Xu Qian paid the coachman for the car, and agreed to come to pick up people five days later, and then he shook the fan and took Zhao Mengting and Deng Jian into the village.

Along the way, there are many memories of Xu Qian, walking between Qianmo and the simple house, Xu Qian saw the towering courtyard, this is obviously the house of the big family in the village, blue bricks and white tiles, very majestic, Xu Qian pointed to the house with a fan and said: "This is the house of the Yao family's largest family, I think back then, the housekeeper of his family also let the dog bite me, the man should be like this in the world, the mansion of the high gate, let the dog bite people, haha......"

After that, he used a fan to light a low earthen house, and said to Zhao Mengting: "This person has done long-term work for Yao Dahu, and has been facing the loess all his life with his back to the sky, and the annual harvest is not enough to feed and wear, so far this guy has not married a wife, and the year before last, there was a dumb woman who almost married in, but unfortunately ......"

Zhao Mengting is a merchant and has been in the city since she was a child, so she was very curious and asked, "What is a pity?" ”

Xu Qian said: "It's a pity that the dumb lady saw the four walls of his house, turned around and left, what does it mean for a person to live like this, if it were me, I would rather hang myself." ”

Zhao Mengting sighed and continued to follow Xu Qian.

Continue to walk forward, past the house where the Yao family gathered, through the ridge, and then arrived at the gathering point of the Xu family, the first house stood alone, there was a dirt yard in front of the door, Xu Qian stroked his palms and smiled: "This is my third uncle's house, the third uncle has watched me grow up since I was a child, and treated me like his own son and nephew, let's go, let's just go and ask, first ask where my father is." ”

He was about to knock on the door, and it happened that a woman with a bucket waist came out with a dustpan, and when he saw Xu Qian, he seemed to be a little unrecognizable, but Xu Qian was respectful and said, "Third aunt, I am Xu Qian, this is polite." ”

The third aunt stared at him, then twisted her waist, and Sen Sen sneered: "You little bastard still dare to come back?" Courteous? I can't afford your gift, get out! ”

A rolling word, with the courage to break through the sky, before Xu Qian could explain, the door snapped shut, making Xu Qian eat a closed door.

There was also a voice muttered by the third uncle: "A relative, why bother? ”

The third aunt's voice buzzed: "Why bother? You want to ask me this? Xu Chang's thing that killed a thousand knives, in order to let this kid study, cut off our family's livelihood, originally the family's little five can still have food in the county, although it is a servant, but he can always get back some cash, now that the errand is gone, do you follow you home to plant that one acre and two cents of land? Is this enough land for us to eat? Is it enough? ”

"You...... You keep your voice quiet, not afraid of being heard. ”、

"I just want them to listen and be scared, so I will allow their family to seek fame and fame, and then cut off our family's job? If you don't have an errand, you can't farm now, when our Xu family still had some people in the county, where did the Yao family dare to bully us? It's that Yao Ju's family, and it's very rare to be embarrassed by us, now you see, the errand is lost, for the sake of the water source, people dare to knock on the door, the Yao family has occupied all the water, our surname Xu wants to farm, where does the water come from? ”

"Hey...... Ay...... You are a woman, you are so careless, this is the Yao family bullying us, and it is not Xu Qian's nephew, what are you yelling about......"
