One hundred and forty-three, the eight-sided exquisite Pei Thirteen Niang
"What, the rent will be free for the next two years, and we won't be charged?"
The bearded man's jaw almost dropped in shock, and he confirmed again with the smiling landlord Chen in front of him.
Landlord Chen immediately nodded:
"That's right, not only your father and daughter's house, but the entire yard, you don't have to pay the rent for the next two years tomorrow, although the two of you live, the other tenants will go tomorrow to notify them to move out and make room, and the two of you can live more spacious."
He nodded:
"The little one has been neglecting Brother Huang before, I don't know the hero, I'm really sorry, I still hope that the eldest brother and Ling Ai Haihan."
The bearded man and the little girl in the red jacket looked at each other.
While Landlord Chen was talking, Pei Sanniang stood aside, looking at the Huang family's father and daughter with a smile, and during this time, she sorted out the purple gold silk at the crook of her lower arm, so that it would not touch the muddy ground of this old courtyard.
She smiled kindly, and reached out to touch the little head of the little girl in the red jacket behind the bearded man.
Huang Xuan subconsciously retreated and dodged.
Pei Shisanniang was not annoyed, and withdrew her hand calmly.
The bearded man asked in surprise: "Third Master Chen, why is this good, the rent is free for two years, and it is ...... And give us all the yard ......."
Landlord Chen was silent, and turned his head to look at Pei Shisanniang beside him.
Pei Sanniang looked away from Huang Xuan, looked at the bearded man, and suddenly asked:
"What do you call Brother Huang?"
"Big brother doesn't dare to be." The bearded man scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "My surname is Huang, my name is Feihong, the eldest in the family, you can also call me Huang Da, this is a little girl, a single name is Xuan, just call her Xiaoxuan." ”
"Okay, Brother Huang." Pei Sanniang smiled and nodded: "Actually, it's not just this room, Landlord Chen is so generous, how can the slave family be stingy." ”
She spread one palm to her side, and a burly guard behind her took something out of her bosom, lowered her head and handed it down, and put her palm in her hand.
Huang Feihong and Huang Xuan looked fixedly, and there was a brass key with a string of copper rings lying on the palm of the hand wearing a jade jade bracelet.
"This is the key to the big mansion facing the street at the mouth of the alley two hundred zhang out of the west, the slave family just came to Xunyang not long ago, no more than in Yangzhou, there are not too many things to get their hands on, this house is a little bit of the slave family, please Brother Huang and Xiaoxuan must accept it, don't be polite to the slave family."
"This ...... This gift ......"
Huang Feihong's eyes widened and she stammered speechless.
Huang Xuan, who was hiding behind her father, also poked her head out and looked at the sudden noble lady and the copper key in her hand with her mouth wide open.
After a while, she suddenly asked: "Isn't the big mansion facing the street at the mouth of the alley the house of Li Yuanwai's family?" ”
Pei Sanniang understated: "Oh, Li Yuanwai just moved out today, and now it's yours, Xiaoxuan rest assured, this is a private gift from the slave family, and there is no malicious ...... By the way, I almost forgot the deed. ”
She suddenly patted her forehead and smiled helplessly:
"It's too urgent, the deed is still in the big mansion, I have to let you sign it, just right, let's wait for the past, by the way, let's see what the new house lacks, you can say on the spot, the slave family will take care of it, to ensure that the two of you live comfortably."
The pie fell from the sky, and the father and daughter of the Huang family were a little confused, and they looked at each other frequently, but they did not move immediately.
But I wanted to be vigilant about whether there was a fraud trap, but I looked left and right at my dilapidated yard, and was suddenly pulled back to reality.
The family is surrounded by four walls, and they and this courtyard combined, they may not be as valuable as the purple gold silk of the noble lady in front of them, and the furnishings of the carriage and the four BMW horses at the door may be able to buy half a street here.
This kind of noble lady dressed as a rich businessman, making money every breath, has the leisure to defraud their poor father and daughter?
Unless there is some amazing income ratio, wouldn't they be trading at a loss, and they can't afford to pay it back for eight lifetimes...... And cattle and horses are the most indispensable in this world.
Huang Feihong's head shook like a rattle:
"It's too precious, it's too precious, Xiaoxuan and I can't accept it, this favor is too big, I can't afford to pay it back if I sell it......"
"Brother Huang, to correct it, this is not a favor, the slave family and the landlord Chen are both private gifts, not sales and sales, tomorrow you can ask the government notary to come and transfer the property rights and house deeds, above board, complete procedures, no routines.
"Besides, the slave family is not talented, he is a Yangzhou businessman, Brother Huang can go out to inquire, we Yangshang do business, we have always been sincere and obey our promises, and never break the contract."
Speaking of credibility, the smile on the corner of Pei Sanniang's mouth converged, and it was a little positive, not like a joke.
Huang Feihong became more and more uneasy, and asked in a suspicious tone:
"But it's so decent, why did Mrs. Pei and Chen Sanye give us these things? This, this doesn't make sense, what is the picture? ”
Huang Xuan also suddenly spoke: "What do you want...... I don't have anything in my house, I don't have anything you can look at...... I don't have the blessing to change houses with my wife, so please go back. ”
Landlord Chen looked sideways at Pei Sanniang.
Huang Feihong also stared at her.
Pei Sanniang didn't look at these two people, and looked at Huang Xuan with a smile, although it was a little strange that she refused to react and speak, but she still continued:
"Slaves don't ask for things, they do good deeds and accumulate virtues, why do they need so much?
"Hey, the businessman should have given back some money to the poor people after making money, this is a business virtue, and it is also in line with the way of yin and yang, so why should there be a reason, but ...... The slave family can realize this sense of responsibility, in fact, it is still inspired by the noble sages today, and it can be regarded as seeing the sages and thinking together. ”
Her expression was full of emotion.
Landlord Chen immediately nodded: "Me too, me too." ”
Huang Feihong was puzzled: "Noble sage, what do you mean?" ”
Huang Xuan reacted: "Do you know that noble man in the evening?" ”
Pei Sanniang nodded with a smile.
Huang Feihong looked around suspiciously and asked, "The noble man in the evening?" What are you talking about, Xiaoxuan, what happened in the evening? ”
Pei Sanniang didn't answer.
Huang Xuan lowered her eyelashes and looked at the wound in her palm.
Huang Feihong's gaze also fell on her wound......
Shaoqing, after asking from his daughter's mouth about the incident that escaped the peak loop in the evening, the bearded man was flushed and gritted his teeth:
"That bungrel, brute! I'm really angry, Xiaoxuan, I told you not to go anymore, for that bit of leftover ink, it's really not worth it, you really want to write and make leaves, it's a big deal to buy some cheap ink ingots...... You don't listen, you go every day, those few ink shop stewards I know at first sight that it's not a good thing, I'm angry, don't let me catch it next time! ”
Huang Xuan turned a deaf ear and asked Pei Shisanniang again: "So did the nobleman ask you to come, and you still want to help my family?" ”
Pei Shisanniang's eyes flowed slightly, undeniable:
"Almost, the slave family does know the noble person who helped you, and this time I came to ...... It is also the meaning of learning from him. ”
Huang Xuan was silent and touched a certain money bag.
"Actually, this time it's not completely free of charge, huh...... There is another small thing to ask for, just a gesture, and it is a good thing for that nobleman...... You get the idea, right? ”
"What's the matter?" Huang Feihong was curious.
"The thing to promote the good name of the noble person is to go to a meal, thank the noble person in person, and help him make a name for himself by the way, so that you can repay him for his kindness, and you don't have to feel too guilty."
Pei Sanniang spoke kindly, bent down, handed the key to Huang Xuan's hand, and touched her head at the same time.
This time, Huang Xuan did not dodge, but raised her head when she stroked her head and confirmed again:
"You say first, how can you help? Can you really help the nobles? "There are some worries and vigilance.
"Of course, if you think about it, helping you a poor little girl out of the siege, this is a good deed, publicize it, and there is no harm in it, anyway, when you appear, you must say good things about him in public, it can't be bad words, right?
"It's not ugly, it's a good deed, and doing good deeds shouldn't be nameless, don't you say?
"In this way, if you find out that what the slave family said is false, you can leave at any time, rest assured, the house sent by the slave family will not be taken back......"
Pei Sanniang said this with a smile, and the conversation suddenly changed:
"It's too late, it's cold standing in this yard, so let's go talk to the new house at the entrance of the alley, and by the way, you can take a look at the house."
The father and daughter of the Huang family hesitated, nodded and agreed.
When they came to the new house, the father and daughter of the Huang family seemed to have entered the Grand View Garden, touching everywhere, their eyes were hopeful, and they couldn't hide their joy.
It's like a poor man suddenly owning a big villa, a bit of a dream.
Pei Sanniang suddenly asked: "Xiaoxuan, do you know who the young man who wears a felt hat and buys red leaves is?" ”
Huang Xuan was stunned: "Isn't it the slave of that noble girl?" Isn't the noble lady Xie the little lady who still has that palace. ”
"You, you, you're so cute."
Pei Sanniang shook her head and chuckled: "Whether the noble daughter of the Xie family likes your red leaves, the slave family doesn't know, but the person who came forward to buy the red leaves is Shi Ouyang Lianghan, the governor of Jiangzhou, and he is your real nobleman." ”
The little girl in the red jacket was stunned.
"Long History...... Ouyang Lianghan...... That righteous gentleman who is famous all over the world? She couldn't help blurting out: "Zhou Bang Xianxi, Rong Youlianghan?" ”
"That's right, it's him."
Pei Sanniang was very satisfied with Huang Xuan's reaction, but the little girl suddenly raised her head and asked again, almost stumping her.
"Then why did he say what the eldest lady said, and why did he keep a low profile...... Could it be that I don't want to publicize it, isn't it bad for me and my father to publicize it? ”
Pei Sanniang couldn't help but look at the little girl who was spinning very fast, and suddenly smiled:
"This ...... This is the only way to show that he is a real sage, think about it, isn't this afraid that you and Brother Huang will feel guilty, what can you pay him back if you are so poor? He doesn't want to do this at all, so why burden you, just say that the noblewoman of the palace likes red leaves, and doesn't mention herself at all, covering up the reason why Lu Jian is uneven and pulls out a sword to help......"
The noble lady sighed: "Now that there is a chance, the slave family can let you toast and thank you for a cup, it won't be too troublesome, is it a rude person who knows how to repay his kindness?" ”
Huang Xuan and Huang Feihong were silent for a moment, as if what they said was very reasonable, and their eyes hesitated...... At this time, a deed of ownership was pushed in front of their father and daughter.
Pei Shisanniang pressed the deed with her hand, looked at them, and smiled without saying a word.
Huang Feihong touched the red lacquered tables and stools around him left and right, and was a little reluctant.
He quietly turned to look at his daughter.
"What did Brother Huang say?" Pei Sanniang asked.
Huang Feihong scratched her head in embarrassment: "Listen to Xiaoxuan, this kind of thing in my family, she is in charge, she is in charge." ”
Pei Sanniang was stunned for a moment, smiled, looked at the little girl in the red jacket who was silent, and felt more and more that the relationship between the father and daughter was interesting, especially this daughter.
Father and daughter painting style, one is reckless and casual, the other is careful and self-disciplined, and the daughter is like a parent.
Huang Xuan and her father glanced at each other, and saw the desire to speak in his eyes.
She suddenly looked around left and right.
This luxurious new mansion outside Li Yuanwai, located at the corner of the street, is brightly lit day and night, and the candles seem to be free of money, Huang Xuan has passed by here countless times, and each time she dragged her sore legs and feet and aggrieved body back to the dim and cramped courtyard.
She remembered that Li Yuanwai's family also had a little daughter of the same age as her, who was dressed in fine clothes and food, glamorous, and had servants when she traveled.
Right now, the deed of this mansion that she has looked up to countless times is quietly in front of her.
Huang Xuan raised her head:
"Landlord Chen's yard is rent-free for two years, don't drive out other tenants, everything is the same, let those mothers-in-law and uncles continue to live, okay? Madam, mother-in-law and uncle are all very good, and this is also a good deed. ”
Hearing the unexpected conditions, Pei Sanniang's eyelashes raised, but immediately, the smile became even worse:
"It's okay, the house belongs to your father and daughter, and you can arrange it. Let's talk about tomorrow's toast......"
During the listening period, Huang Xuan touched the money bag in her arms again.
The handsome face of a young man in a felt hat flashed in front of him...... It turns out that he is a nobleman.
"Tomorrow at noon...... Xunyang Building...... The two of them passed on time...... Rest assured, noble people will come to ......"
After a while, after the negotiation, Pei Sanniang left the father and daughter of the Huang family and left satisfied.
Climb aboard a luxurious horse-drawn carriage and leave the dilapidated alleys.
When passing by the alley, she suddenly saw a strange Taoist priest standing on the street, carrying a peachwood sword, for some reason there was no crown, his hair was scattered, and his Taoist robe was messy, but he had a paralyzed face.
The Taoist priest watched her carriage pass by in silence with no expression.
Pei Sanniang looked at it, lowered the curtain, shook her head and muttered:
"The old town of Xingzifang is really messy, and it is not as clean as the neighborhoods in Yangzhou, so ...... The slave family is really doing good deeds, Lord Changshi. ”
The wheels rolled, ran over the muddy ground in the broken alley, and flew away.
Lu Jian watched the noble lady's luxurious carriage go away, and then turned his head to look in the direction of the Huang family's father and daughter, who were happy to get the new house.
……
The next day, Ouyang Rong went out as usual.
Yesterday I was on vacation, and today I am refreshed and full of motivation to work.
Well, it's more comfortable to work than to accompany women shopping, and a cult is a cult.
In the morning, he arrived at the Hanlei Ink Shop on time, where a certain figure of a girl in a cold palace costume was still there, chasing after him to investigate the theft of fifty Hanlei ink ingots.
Ouyang Rong walked around, said hello to Yan Liulang, who cooperated with the investigation, and asked about the case.
Yan Liulang's face was serious, and he shook his head and said:
"There are no clues, the ink ingots seem to have disappeared out of thin air, all links have been checked, and the people who have been in contact have been checked one by one, unless the owner thief shouts to be a thief, or all the people who lie have not produced this batch of ink at all, otherwise I really can't think of how to disappear."
After hesitating, he said again: "Mingfu, although it is a small case and no one was killed, I have never seen such a bizarre case since I was arrested quickly." ”
Ouyang Rong raised his eyebrows, feeling a little strange in his heart.
Obviously, the thief can't be found, which helps him hide the "butterfly love flower master", but he is very curious about the modus operandi.
In other words, who did it? Can God not be aware of ghosts, is it possible to be a craftsman?
But the little guy has been punished by him for "belly pocket" these days, and he has been coexisting with the two trophies it seized in the sword box every day.
Ouyang Rong nodded, the monk played an umbrella, lawless, he had to taste the consequences of his behavior, couldn't he be the only sword master who paid afterwards and carried the name of a pervert?
In the future, if it dares to bring any messy things to its home, it will have to consider whether its sword box nest can be fitted.
Anyway, it shouldn't have been done by the craftsmen who closed the small black house, and besides, there are fifty ink ingots, where can it be hidden?
Seeing that there was nothing to do, Rong Zhen ignored people coldly, and Ouyang Rong left first.
Rong Zhen sent someone away, turned around and walked into the stolen warehouse.
After walking around twice in a pile of Hanlei ink ingots, she suddenly stopped, lowered her eyelashes and said to herself:
"If all possible truths are ruled out, then only some impossibilities remain.
"Why might as well be bold, is it possible that it is indeed not artificial, so there is no 'popularity' left, what is it that can make fifty ink strips disappear out of thin air, and there is no breath left, should it be...... Eat it, right? Oh, interesting.
"Originally, it was the owner of the butterfly love flower, but I didn't expect to find out those things first......"
