Chapter 39: Who Could She Be If Not She? (A certain fox 10,000 coins plus more)
At noon, Hao Tongju squatted under the porch, nibbling on steamed buns and looking at portraits.
After the painter finished painting yesterday, he glanced at it randomly, and didn't take it to heart, and today Xu Guogongfu took the portrait to ask, he looked at it carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more familiar he felt.
Cooked and cooked, there is no leakage on the mouth.
He only asked the Su family to bring one, saying that he wanted to observe the memories carefully, and let the neighbors take a look after he went down.
Right now, he's staring at the portrait and pondering.
"Do you have lunch?"
Hearing the sound, Hao Tongju raised his head and saw Jing Dafeng coming with his hands in his hands.
Jing Dafeng walked to his side, his chubby figure squatted down, and he squatted quite steadily: "Yo, what kind of portrait is this?" Wanted criminals? I didn't see a notice at the gate of the city. ”
Hao Tongju's mind moved, wiped his hands, hooked Jing Dafang's shoulder, and said in a low voice: "You came just in time, help me see, is the person in this painting very familiar?" ”
"Hey", Jing Dafang narrowed his eyes and commented: "This person has a good face, the atrium is full, and he can make a fortune when he looks at it." ”
Hao Tongju looked left and right, and his voice was lowered: "I remember that Chen Gui went to look for you, right?" Do you see it clearly, does it look like Chen Gui? ”
"Chen Gui?" Jing Dafeng pretended to think, "I remember, do you want to be the one who sells honestly?" He came to me and wanted a piece of the pie. I didn't talk to him. You're going to say it's like ......"
"I won't go around in circles with you," Hao Tongju licked his lips, "This is drawn by the Duke of Xu Guo according to the confessions of those two little men, and I estimate that it is Chen Gui who is stirring up it."
Those two people are also troublemakers, I don't know if it's intentional or not, the portraits that come out are six points true and four points false, if it weren't for me and Chen Gui being acquainted, I almost wouldn't have seen it. ”
Jing Dafeng continued: "Since it's not that similar, how can you conclude that it's him?" ”
"Chen Gui is the same clan of the second lady of the sincere Bofu, although he is out of the five suits, but he himself has a good relationship with the Bofu, and he often eats and drinks with the second master, and he can also call the eldest girl of the Bofu a 'nephew' with a cheeky face, just this relationship, can he watch the third son of Su eat both men and women?" After Hao Tongjuan finished explaining, he pursed his lips and muttered, "Anyway, I definitely can't see it, when I think of my niece and son-in-law being such a bastard, I can't eat a mouthful of food!" ”
Jing Dafeng still didn't let go, but said: "You are on an errand in the yamen, what scene have you never seen, and you can't eat it?" ”
"Hey, let me tell you, Jing Dongjia, I've been on an errand for so many years, I have broken my hands and feet, and burned most of them, even if they are cut into pieces, I have seen them, and they are still delicious," Hao Tongju finished speaking, and he scratched his head embarrassedly, "It's far away, it's far away, we're talking about Su San, the scene where he was brought in the night before yesterday, it's not that I said, you don't want to eat when you see it!" What a mess!
Chen Gui lives in Qingyu Hutong, it's not good for me to go to him, you go for me, this thing is really done by him, just let him not go around West Street recently, and don't come to the yamen, in case someone recognizes it, trouble! ”
Jing feasted on it and said, "If he really did it, you still protect him?" ”
Hao Tong smiled: "If all the noble children in the capital are as upright as the Sincere Bofu, our yamen can have a lot less to do, and besides, Chen Gui is also a real person, even if this matter is true, he is not to blame." Su Sangongzi himself is not clean, is he? ”
"You opened your mouth, I will definitely go for a trip, I can't get used to that kind of messy person," Jing Dafeng said, "I came to tell you today, I will go back to Yuhang in seven or eight days at most, and the repair will be watched by Gao An, you and all the masters are assured, it will be repaired, and when the autumn harvest is busy and the grain is in the warehouse, I will come to Beijing again." ”
The two talked about some honest things again, and Jing Dafeng left the yamen quickly.
The inn has always been a well-informed place, he lives in Jinmanlou, and he heard about Su Ke's bastard thing yesterday morning.
Today I went to West Street again, and I saw several people looking for people with portraits, and they were thinking about whether to come to Shuntianfu to inquire, but before they could make the trip, Sanchen came to find them.
Now that he asked clearly, he didn't delay, and walked through the streets and alleys to Walnut Zhai.
In the backyard, Xu Jian sat under the porch and ate tea.
Jing Dafeng stepped forward, and after finishing everything one by one, he asked, "Grandpa Guo, is it really Chen Dongjia's doing?" ”
Xu Jian answered lightly.
Thinking of the closed-door soup eaten by the Duke of Xu, Jing Dafang asked again: "Behind is the county lord?" ”
Looking at the teacup in his hand, Xu Jian said, "Who can she be?" The sincerity of Bo's mansion is full of upright people, who can come up with such a trick to throw Su Ke a few naked on the street? ”
Jing Da laughed and didn't laugh either.
This is said as if the county lord is not in the sincere Bofu.
Then again, if it weren't for the county lord intervening, would the grandfather of the country be able to care?
Jing Da, who saw through everything, pondered it for a while, and said: "Before I just came over, there were two people who started talking in Jinmanlou, probably because Su Sangongzi sincerely admitted his mistake, but Bofu didn't even see anyone...... It's only the next day, and after a few more days, the words will be different again. ”
"If the Duke of Xu Guo Mansion does not give up, it will definitely incite public opinion," Xu Jian was not surprised by this, "Lin Yunyan thought that she would not be unprepared for such a simple forehand and backhand. ”
Public opinion is the wind, which can blow to the east or west.
The last thing the little county lord lacks now is money, just looking for someone to blow the wind.
"The county lord is smart and prepared, but," Jing Dafang took a half step forward, "Listening to Hao Tong's sentence, the Duke of Xu Guo is very unforgiving, and he must find out the people."
If they really think of Chen Dong's family, those two little girls are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and in the end, whether it is or not, the Xu Guogong Mansion will cover the head of the Chen Dong family, and bite the Bofu to calculate them in order to repent of their marriage.
With this additional link, no matter how much the wind blows, it will not take the lead. ”
Hearing that there was something in Jing Dafang's words, Xu Jian leaned against the pillar, and his dark eyes seemed to be smiling: "So? ”
"If you have a way, why don't you help the county lord?" Jing Dafang suggested.
"Help her?" Xu Jian was happy, and her tone couldn't hide her cheerfulness, "She is still pretending to be pitiful in Cining Palace at this time, where can she ask someone to help?" ”
Jing Dafeng couldn't help laughing.
Listen, when it comes to the county lord, the pleasure of the grandfather of the country can't deceive people.
He was amused by the county lord's series of calculations against the Duke of Xu.
With such a good play, how can those who watch the play not be happy?
In particular, it is the county lord who is behind the layout, and when people really make a move, it is more and more intense, and it seems that the words that came and went with Grandpa Guo before were just eyebrows and eyebrows.
"Then don't help," Jing Dafeng walked sideways, "You try to add fuel to the fire?" ”
Xu Jian was slightly stunned, as if she had thought of something, the smile in her eyes overflowed little by little, and the corners of her lips were a little higher.
He put down the teacup and got up and walked outside.
As he walked, he said, "Okay." ”
