"This Su Baoyu, slippery head!"

The fourth son, Tang Kuan, sent Qi Yu, the owner of the Chengfeng Teahouse, away, and came to Qinxiang Xiaozhu.

In the hall on the first floor, Tang Kuan sat leisurely in the Taishi chair and drank tea.

Tang Mei sat on the side seat, not knowing what to say.

Tang Kuan took a sip of tea and felt that it was too bitter, so he put it down and said: "You said, I sent him to the county yamen on an errand, but he didn't give the county order face, and forced this person surnamed Qi to come to me." No, I still have to come to you to find him. I guess he didn't dare not give me face. But in this way, what does the county magistrate think of me? Co-author, I sent someone over, did I sing against others? In the county office, the county order will not be good in the future, so I Tang Kuan will be easy to use? Isn't this a demolition of people's homes? It's not going to work. ”

The maid brought a plate of melon seeds, which was taken by Tang Mei and handed to Tang Kuan.

Tang Kuan picked up a handful of melon seeds and said: "Our Tang family has nothing to be afraid of, but we can't be a man without respecting the rules, otherwise I won't be able to do anything in Luoyang City in the future, don't you say?" ”

"This Su Baoyu is really unbelievable." Tang Mei followed her brother's words and said, "After he came to me, he did something unexpected. If you want me to say, this is the character of a countryman, and I don't understand the rules of our Luoyang City. You see, in the middle of the night, he ran away by himself and didn't say a word to me. It's better that my brother doesn't have the same knowledge as him. ”

Tang Kuan waved his hand: "Little sister, you're wrong, I'm not here to crusade against him this time, but I have something to talk to him about." ”

"Yo, the fourth brother has something to talk to him about?" Tang Mei smiled and asked, "This is really lifting her, what can he help the fourth brother?" ”

I don't know how long this melon seed has been released, but it has already been damp. Tang Kuan stopped eating, clapped his hands and said: "I just talked to the surnamed Qi, I was so cheating, guess what, he even admitted that the last few batches of Huaiyang thin horses without household registration were made by him." The new decree issued by the imperial court half a year ago is a serious crime! ”

"What do you mean by ......," Tang Mei asked closer.

Tang Kuan whispered: "Although he admitted it, after all, this is said in private, and I don't have his handle." If you go to court and people deny it, I will have nothing to do with him. So I want Su Baoyu to help me keep an eye on him. Grab him by the handle and bring him to justice. If someone comes to intercede, they will say that Su Baoyu, this kid, is a raw rice eater, and he enforces the law impartially, and he doesn't even give me face. ”

Tang Mei frowned and asked, "How is this good for our Tang family?" ”

Tang Kuan said: "Recently, I'm not talking to Wanhualou about buying shares. Wanhualou belongs to the Han family, and the Han family relies on the support of Queen Han to argue with me, and I don't know how to act at all. I'm going to give them some means this time, so that they know that there is nothing I can't do in Luoyang! If you don't let me make money together, I'll cut off their money! ”

Tang Mei thought for a while, and said with a little embarrassment: "But just now the fourth brother said that let Baoyu enforce the law impartially, and even give the fourth brother face." Doesn't this make the fourth brother lose face? ”

Tang Kuan blinked: "Didn't the little sister say that when Concubine Fan died, she would blow him away?" By then, won't my face be restored? ”

Hearing this, Tang Mei choked there and didn't say anything for a long time.

……

"I said shopkeeper, when I rented the teahouse to your family, Master Qi, we said yes, we can't damage the signboard of this Chengfeng teahouse."

"Hey, Second Master Qiao, what are you talking about, why did we break the signboard?" Mr. Zhang, the bookkeeper of the Chengfeng Teahouse, trotted over and said with a smile.

"Not a bad sign? Look, is there still a teahouse in this house? There is no one on the second floor, but there are a few on the first floor, but they are all your buddies. Are you in business? Look at your guys, do you look like guys? When I entered the door, no one came to greet me. Co-author, you guys here are all uncles, am I here to be the wrongdoer? Do you want me to boil water and make my own tea? When you leave, how many taels of silver will you offer to them? ”

"Oh, second master. They didn't think you were here to collect rent, so ......."

"Don't tell me about those useless things. Even if I'm here to collect rent, look at what the former shopkeeper Liu did? greeted me with a smile and invited me to a private room, where I was greeted with a high pot first. The more Qiao Dongcheng spoke, the more angry he became, and pointed to the group of angry guys in the room and said, "Look at them again, like him, I owe them money." ”

The second master of Pingkangfang, the wife and nephew of Zhao Changchun, the king of Qi, the general of Jinwu. Concubine Qiao of King Qi's family, she is a famous beauty. Originally, she was not a concubine, but she was lucky, and she was finally corrected by "killing" the concubines from the two gate valves. Of course, "death by death" is a superstitious saying, and I can't believe it, but that's what the people of the Liang Dynasty said.

Qiao Dongcheng is thirty-five or sixteen years old, dignified, upright, and said to be a good martial artist. Not to mention that he still has two little guys, even if he doesn't, he can't look down on the guys in the Chengfeng Teahouse. In Qiao Dongcheng's eyes, these teahouse guys are a bunch of rotten gangsters. If you move your fist, you can knock them down if you divide them by two.

The account clerk surnamed Zhang turned to the guy and said, "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and make a pot of high for Second Master Qiao." ”

Qiao Dongcheng waved his hand and said, "That's it, I think it's better not to bother a few masters." I'm not here to collect rent. I saw that this ancestral signboard of our family was about to be smashed by you, so I decided to take back the teahouse. ”

"Hey, Second Master Qiao, you dissipate your anger, you have something to discuss."

"Nothing to negotiate." As he spoke, Qiao Dongcheng stood up: "Please tell Master Qi that I can't say that my surname Qiao is unkind, but that he failed to keep his promise." But I can let you go for half a month and let you go find your next home. This half month, I gave it to you for nothing. March 20, must be moved. If you don't move out, I'll bring someone with you. ”

After that, Qiao Dongcheng took people away.

The account room surnamed Zhang chased to the door: "Second Master Qiao, this teahouse is no longer done, what are you going to do when you take it back?" ”

"What I'm going to do, you don't care. This house and land are mine! ”

……

Although Mei Ran was born in the rivers and lakes, she went to the meeting alone, and she was still a little flustered. Especially when those gangsters started to make trouble, she directly showed her killer weapon and knocked the tall man to the ground.

Seeing that Mei Ran had the situation under control, Su Bottle was relieved. However, he still shook the branch, which was regarded as saying hello to Mei Ran.

When Mei Ran found Su Bottle, the girl smiled with relief, this stinky junior brother still came after all, and she was not left alone.

But just as she was about to say something, she saw a woman in a big cloak next to her fly up and go straight to Su Bottle.

This woman's martial arts are not simple, Su Bottle has been fighting with her for more than a dozen rounds, and she has not been distinguished.

Mei Ran had already followed, and had already shouted the words "their own people", but the two people in the struggle didn't seem to have the intention of stopping immediately, until the two slapped each other and each shook back.

The woman took three steps back, and Su Bottle took two steps back, he could have stood still, but he deliberately took a step back.

The woman stopped beating, her face was hidden in the shadow of her hat, and she asked in a cold voice, "Who did you learn your martial arts from?" ”

Su Bottle put his hands behind his back and stood upright: "Why do you ask this?" ”

The woman in the hood said, "Did 'he' let you come?" ”

When she said this, she didn't point to Mei Ran, so who did the "he" in her mouth refer to?

Su Bei vaguely felt that it might be Chen Qianyi.

Chen Qianyi's person has always been safe, since he asked Mei Ran to be the helmsman of Luoyang, Bacheng wants to arrange one or two masters in this group of people to secretly protect Mei Ran.

Su Bottle smiled, pointed at Mei Ran and said, "Yes, she invited me here." I was so busy that I didn't say yes at first, and when I was done, I hurried over. ”

The woman in the hood asked, "Why don't you show your true face?" ”

Su Bottle stared at the pointed chin in the shadows under the canopy and smiled: "Your Excellency, isn't this the case? ”

"Okay, don't talk about it, let me introduce ......" Mei Ran took over the conversation and introduced the two of them.

This woman doesn't use her real name to walk the rivers and lakes, only the line number "Night Frost". She has a younger sister, Mei Ran said that her sister is so good-looking, just look at it, and it can make Su Bottle's eyes fly out. Su Bottle said that he was a decent person, and his eyes would not fly.

The curfew is about to begin, Su Bottle wants to leave here quickly, and hurriedly says goodbye, Mei Ran sends Su Bottle to the door of the workshop.

"Why didn't her sister come?" Su asked with a smile.

Mei Ran rolled her eyes and said, "I said just now that I was a decent person, and now I am starting to think about my sister." ”

"Look at you, I'm just asking."

"Her sister has gone to see the Grand Master."

"Oh..., have you met the Grand Master?"

Mei Ran pouted: "I haven't seen it." ”

"Tut-tut." Su Bei smiled evilly: "It's been a long time, your big sect leader is a womanizer. I don't care about you, the helmsman of Luoyang, but I want to see the beauty first. Hehe. ”

After a few jokes, I already heard the sound of bangs on the street, and I was about to close the door. Su Bottle sped up and ran back to Qinghuafang with a smoke. The moment the door closed, he jumped in.

Falling to the ground, he smiled with relief. At that time, he was still wearing the strange-looking robe of the rain boy, and the black light was so blind that the closing officials were startled.

The official muttered something in his mouth, and walked over quickly, as if he wanted to ask what Su Bottle was for. Su Bottle took off the waist from the Jiupin Capture Fast Waist Card and shook it, and the little official waved his hand and turned to leave.

Once you're in the workshop, you don't have to worry about curfews. The workshop is still lively, especially in the drunken fairy building, which is even brighter.

Although Qinghuafang is living a tight life, those old men still have money to spare and continue to live a prosperous life.

Su Bottle walked unhurriedly to the door of the Guogong Mansion, and saw Tang Wan, a little maid in a red jacket, running over in a hurry, and beckoning her uncle to hurry home. said that the fourth master Tang Kuan was waiting at home, and he had been waiting for an hour. The fourth master is a busy man and a quick temper, so hurry up and walk.
