Chapter 88: Some Trivia
Mei Zilin held the child in her arms and sat on the bench in the courtyard, her face was extremely ugly, and she didn't say a word.
And the matchmaker in front of her is chattering about how it is.
Suddenly, Mei Zilin became angry, got up with the child in her arms and shouted, "Enough! I said, there's no way I'm going to get married! Go, take your things and go! ”
"Hey, Xiaomei, don't you be ignorant, Qingda official, but the big man of the Qinglong City City Lord's own family, it's your honor to be able to take a fancy to you as a widow, and you still don't want to." The matchmaker suddenly became arrogant, crossed her hands on her hips, pointed at Mei Zilin and shouted: "Let me tell you Xiaomei, since this thing has been brought, don't think that we can take it back, you are really angry with me, and you don't want a good future." ”
The onlookers dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, not long after Hu Haiyang died, Mei Zilin was remembered by others, and she really didn't know what to say.
"The Qingda officials of Qinglong City, what are we in Phoenix City? You're just one of his men, rampage! ”
There was a sudden voice, and then the crowd dispersed a road, and everyone's eyes fell on Wang Xu's body, with a happy face.
Seeing Wang Xu, Mei Zilin was also overjoyed and immediately stood up.
The matchmaker was very arrogant, turned her head to look at Wang Xu, and snorted coldly: "There are still nosy, I really don't know how thick the sky is, you guys, teach him a lesson!" ”
Several followers immediately howled and rushed up, Wang Xu did not dodge or dodge, as long as he got close, it was a slap.
crackling, after a few consecutive slaps, these attendants all lay on the ground and moaned, and Wang Xu also strode to the matchmaker, condescending.
"Ouch, I've beaten someone, I've bullied the old man!" The matchmaker was obviously a shrew, and when she saw this, she immediately squatted on the ground and rolled around.
"Still fooling?" Wang Xu sneered: "Do you want me to take you to Zhenwuwei?" ”
As soon as she heard this, the matchmaker suddenly quieted down, pointed at Wang Xu and said, "You, do you know who I am?" ”
"I heard about it, the matchmaker of the Qingda officials in Qinglong City."
"I'll tell you." The matchmaker stood up from the ground and continued to be arrogant: "Now Phoenix City is a critical moment for cooperation with Qinglong City, if I go back and report this matter to the Qingda officials, your city lord will not let you go!" ”
"yes, so you know who I am?" Wang Xu said with a smile.
"You shameless old woman, get out of here." Someone with good deeds said: "This one in front of you is Lord Wang Xu, the deputy head of the Zhenwu Guard!" ”
"That's it, you dog-eyed old woman, get out of here!"
The surrounding voices came and went, and after the matchmaker heard that it was the deputy chief of guard, her face instantly became extremely pale, where did she dare to stay for a while, hurriedly took people and gifts, and quickly left.
Wang Xu let out a sigh at this time, turned around and clasped his fists at the surrounding people and said, "Thank you for your neighbors, it's okay, everyone is gone." ”
Soon, the neighbors scattered.
Wang Xu came to Mei Zilin and asked, "Sister-in-law, something like this happened, why didn't you come to me?" ”
"Uncle Wang, they came suddenly, and my mother didn't know either." The child was very well-behaved and spoke.
"What the hell is going on here?"
Mei Zilin put down the child and explained while pouring water for Wang Xu.
It turned out that a few days ago, that Qingda official was entrusted by the city lord of Qinglong City to come to Phoenix City to do business, and when he came here, he begged for a bowl of water to drink, who would have thought that the Qingda official actually had such an idea.
"In this way, then I understand, don't worry, sister-in-law, I will personally tell the city lord about this matter, and I will never let these guys bother you again."
"Then there will be the Captain of the King of Law."
"I have other things, so I'll go back first, sister-in-law, you can come to me for anything, I can handle it."
"Thank you, Captain Wang." Mei Zilin saluted politely.
Although this incident was a small episode, Wang Xu still did it himself, and after leaving, he went to the city lord's mansion in person.
Unexpectedly, at the gate of the city lord's mansion, he met an acquaintance, Wang Zifan.
"Brother Wang Xu!" Wang Zifan shouted happily.
"Zifan, I haven't seen you for some days, what are you busy with?" Wang Xu said with a smile.
Wang Zifan immediately saluted, he naturally knew about the recent events in the city, and he also understood that Wang Xu had been promoted.
"The eldest brother is really congratulated on his promotion to deputy chief of guard, originally, Zifan should have come to the door to thank him in person, but he was shy in his pocket......"
Wang Xu interrupted Wang Zifan's phone call and said with a smile: "Okay, Zifan doesn't need to say much, what is the matter here today?" ”
"Big brother, that's the case, I discussed it with a few friends, and I plan to go to Shendu to participate in the imperial examination, our Phoenix City is beneficial to Confucianism, as long as it is reported, it will be pestered."
Hearing this, Wang Xu came to the spirit, the imperial examination, this is a good thing, the prince in front of him, it won't take a few years, but he is a member of the three grades of the gods.
At this time, a chief steward came out of the city lord's mansion, took a bag, and handed it to Wang Zifan.
Naturally, the bag was wrapped in silver money, a total of one hundred taels, five Confucian scholars, twenty taels each.
"Captain Wang is also here, please come in." The manager holds his fists.
"Take the first step, I'll say a few words to Zifan." Wang Xu waved his hand.
He pulled Wang Zifan to the corner on the side, and after making sure that no one was paying attention, he took out a silver ticket of one thousand taels from his pocket, handed it to Wang Zifan and said, "Zifan, this is my personal funding for you to take the exam, you have to take it." ”
Wang Zifan looked at the silver ticket in disbelief, his eyes widened in disbelief, one thousand taels, this is a huge amount of money.
"Big brother, I'm ......"
"Take it." Wang Xu didn't give him a chance to speak, stuffed it into his arms and said: "Remember, wealth is not exposed, lest others be selfish, you will definitely pass the test, come on!" When you go, I will send you. ”
Wang Zifan was moved, shed tears uncontrollably, and hurriedly shook his head and said: "Big brother, you don't need to send us, big brother is now the chief of the guard, very busy, let's go by ourselves, I will leave early tomorrow morning, I will be a classmate, thank you big brother." ”
Wang Zifan bowed deeply to Wang Xu, Wang Xu nodded with his hands behind his back, and said: "Zifan, this life is not all smooth sailing, there may be some troubles here, and there will be unfair things, this is normal, you have to remember what I said, as long as you persist in everything, you will definitely gain something, you must not give up easily, understand?" ”
"I remember, big brother!" Wang Zifan nodded vigorously and wiped away his tears.
Wang Xu smiled and said something to him, and the two parted.
