Chapter 19 Promotions and Salary Increases

Chen Ke watched Old Man Li eat chicken legs, swallowed his saliva, and Old Man Li smiled: "Do you want to eat it?" ”

"If you don't eat it, you can eat it." Chen Ke shook his head.

Old man Li smiled slightly, and ripped off a chicken leg: "Give it to you, the stupid boy bought his own meat and only gave it to others, you are practicing hard, and you must replenish your physical strength." ”

"Thank you, teacher." Chen Ke picked up the chicken leg and nibbled on it, the taste of this chicken was much better than what he had eaten before.

Chen Ke thought of a question while eating, and he asked Old Man Li: "Teacher, Dali Siqing originally said that people with blocked spiritual veins can't practice, is this true?" ”

Old man Li said: "It's true, but your kid is lucky, you know the old way, the old way preaches that you are invincible, what is the point of blocking the meridians." If the old way can't let you cultivate, who else in this world can let you cultivate? ”

Chen Ke also felt very right when he heard it, the teacher is an old immortal, and the meridians are blocked, so it is not a problem!

After eating and drinking, Old Man Li fell asleep, and Chen Ke continued to vomit, reciting Taoist scriptures silently by the way. With a complete cultivation method, Chen Ke felt more relaxed between breathing and breathing.

Practicing and falling asleep naturally, Chen Ke got up in the morning, and Old Man Li also woke up yawning.

"Wake up, I'll go to the city and sit down, and you can go too." Old man Li said with a smile.

Chen Ke nodded, got up and said goodbye to Old Man Li, turned around and ran towards the city.

After Old Man Li saw Chen Ke leaving, he pinched his fingers and said: "Today is already nine days of cultivation, nine is the extreme, you can't cross it, it's time to say goodbye to him." ”

Old man Li smiled and closed the door of the broken temple, walked out of the gate of the broken temple, raised his foot and stepped on it, and the figure disappeared.

A small dilapidated house not far away, which was originally part of the temple, was not built by anyone after it collapsed, but became the residence of the gray-haired mouse.

The gray-haired mouse watched Old Man Li leave, and he knelt on the ground and bowed.

"The little brother left too quickly, and I haven't told him what I inquired about last night."

The gray-haired mouse didn't dare to go to Chen Ke because Old Man Li didn't go out, but Chen Ke rushed to the city, which made the gray-haired mouse a little pity.

"Wait until evening, I'll go out of the city with my little brother." The gray-haired mouse thought about it and decided to secretly protect Chen Ke and come back safely.

……

Chen Ke returned to the inn and passed by Sister-in-law Qin's room again, this time he heard the quarrel again.

The quarrel was no longer hidden, and there was still Xiaobao's cry inside.

"Tell you, you have to leave the capital!"

"If you don't leave, don't blame me for not thinking about the love of husband and wife, and personally send you away!"

While!

Chen Ke pushed open the door and stared at Chen Ying with unkind eyes, Xiaobao saw Chen Ke walk in, and ran over crying and hugged Chen Ke's thigh.

"Brother Chen Ke, father doesn't want us anymore, he wants to drive us away!"

Sister-in-law Qin also had tears on her face, her eyes were red, and her head was slightly lowered, very aggrieved.

Chen Ying snorted coldly, not caring that Chen Ke walked in: "Tomorrow is the last day, if you don't leave, then don't blame me!" ”

Chen Ke stood in front of Sister-in-law Qin, and said, "As an official of Jingzhao Mansion, if you dare to mess around, I will not spare you!" ”

Chen Ying snorted coldly, and squinted at Chen Ke contemptuously: "Just you?" It's not even a headcatcher, dare to take care of my five-grade master, I can let you get out of the capital with a word! ”

Although Chen Ying's face was very white and handsome, at this moment, Su Zhao felt that his face was really full of ingratitude.

Chen Ying flicked his sleeves after speaking, turned around and walked out of the inn.

"Sister-in-law Qin, are you okay?" Chen Ke walked over and asked with concern.

Sister-in-law Qin sobbed carefully, shook her head and said, "Brother Chen, Xiaobao and I may not be able to accompany you in the capital, and we can't help you talk about kissing, I hope you don't blame me." ”

Chen Ke shook his head and said: "How can I blame you, if you hadn't saved me and given me medicine, I would have died in the flood and fed the fish." ”

"Don't talk about these little things." Sister-in-law Qin smiled bitterly.

Chen Ke said: "Sister-in-law Qin, your house and cattle fields have all been sold, and there is no place to live if you go back, I have some money here, so it is better to buy a yard outside the city and live down first." ”

Chen Ke took out a big silver tael from the gray-haired mouse from his arms, and Sister-in-law Qin was a little surprised to see it.

"Chen Ke, where did you get this money from, you just found a good errand in the Yamen, don't be confused and do things that violate the law and discipline!" Sister-in-law Qin asked with concern.

Chen Ke can do things in Jingzhao Mansion, or follow the world-famous Lord Longtu to run errands, Sister-in-law Qin is sincerely happy for Chen Ke.

She didn't want to see Chen Ke go to the law because of a shortage of money.

Chen Ke smiled: "I didn't break the law. My immortal master had a neighbor with whom I borrowed some money. ”

Chen Ke has at least twenty taels of silver in his hand, and Chen Ke's monthly salary is two hundred and fifty yuan, one or two hundred yuan of silver, and one hundred yuan of silver.

Twenty taels is 20,000 yuan, and Chen Ke has to work for six and a half years to receive this money.

"I'm rich,......" Sister-in-law Qin said softly.

Chen Ke said: "Don't use the money of that kind of negative person, use my money, you can rest assured." Save yourself the trouble of living outside and coming to you. ”

"Also, with the rest of the money, find a private school teacher for Xiaobao and let Xiaobao read and write."

Sister-in-law Qin's eyes flowed with tears after hearing this, Xiaobao saw her mother crying, and stretched out her little hand to wipe it: "Mother don't cry, Xiaobao will protect you." ”

Sister-in-law Qin nodded with a smile, looked at Chen Ke and said, "Little Brother Chen, you are the great benefactor of our mother and son, please accept our worship!" ”

Sister-in-law Qin was about to kneel down while holding Xiaobao, Chen Ke hurriedly helped him up and said, "Sister-in-law Qin, what are you doing, this is not tormenting me, if you continue to worry about me like this, I can't help you." ”

"Okay, okay." Sister-in-law Qin laughed and cried, but she still bowed slightly, and the desperate situation was full of hope, which really made people cry with joy.

"Okay, sister-in-law won't cook today, I'll go to the yamen to buy a few martial arts baked cake mats." After Chen Ke handed over the silver to Sister-in-law Qin, he hooked Xiaobao's nose and turned to leave.

"Xiaobao, treat Brother Chen Ke as your own brother in the future." Sister-in-law Qin took the silver two and said to Xiaobao.

"Uh-huh." Xiaobao nodded.

Chen Ke walked out of the inn with indignation in his eyes: "Chen Ying, this bastard, if it weren't for Sister-in-law Qin's family for him, he would have the money to go to Beijing to take the exam, and now that he is a big official, he doesn't recognize the wife of the chaff, how can I make you feel better!" ”

Sister-in-law Qin is Chen Ke's life-saving benefactor, just like a reborn parent. After Chen Ke was rescued, Sister-in-law Qin also gave Chen Ke medicine to see a doctor, and Chen Ke had already regarded Sister-in-law Qin as a relative.

Chen Ying, this bastard, not to mention the dragon and the phoenix, but also bullying Sister-in-law Qin, Chen Ke plans to teach Chen Ying a good lesson and help Sister-in-law Qin vent her evil anger.

"Catch the thief, catch the thief!"

There was a shout from the street in front, and after Chen Ke heard it, he immediately ran over without saying a word, and saw a strong man running with a yellow and white sachet.

Chen Ke hurriedly chased after him, stepped on the ground with one foot, and with the help of his strength, jumped two feet high, and jumped on top of the thief's head amid the exclamations of the people around him, and fell heavily.

"Stealing, it's time to fight!"

Chen Ke clenched his fists and vented his anger against Chen Ying to the thief.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

"Don't fight...... Ouch, murder...... Ah, stop fighting! ”

The thief covered his head, only feeling that Chen Ke's fists were like two big iron fists, and his bones were about to break with a bang.

"Huh!"

"It's broken, it's really broken, help, it's murder!"

The thief was frightened and hurriedly shouted loudly.

The city patrol also chased after him, and when he saw someone being beaten, he hurriedly pulled up Chen Ke.

The thief was beaten with blood on the corner of his mouth, couldn't get up, and shouted with a fast foot: "Official, I confess my guilt, stealing a sachet will not be killed!" ”

A group of people walked behind, the man's bearing was extraordinary, the woman's handsome was very good, and the family members who followed him were even more burly.

The man with extraordinary bearing was very young, a son-in-law, and walked over and said, "This little brother is very good, he should be praised for his righteous and courageous actions." The thief was brought down for interrogation to see if there were any other people who had been stolen. ”

Looking at the young son, you can also see that he has an extraordinary background, and in a place like the capital, any prince is a member of the princely general's family.

The noble man said very much, this thief is blind and dark-hearted, and dares to steal your things. Bring it back and torture it well! With a wave of his hand, he grabbed the thief and left.

The young man looked at Chen Ke, Chen Ke hurriedly handed the sachet that the thief took the initiative to stuff back to the young man, and the young man took it and handed it to the handsome woman behind him.

The young man smiled: "What's your name, whose family is it?" ”

Chen Ke said: "My name is Chen Ke, I am a helper in Jingzhao Mansion, if the son wants to thank us, thank us Jingzhao Mansion." It is the responsibility of our Jingzhao Mansion to eliminate harm for the people. ”

"Ah, you're a little catcher." The handsome woman had a sweet smile on her face, holding a sachet, and her bright eyes looked at Chen Ke.

"Chen Ke, Chen Ke of Jingzhao Mansion?" The young man was slightly stunned and asked with some curiosity.

As soon as Chen Ke heard it, he knew that this son knew about him, and the cross tattoo case had a great impact, and many people had heard of it.

"That's me." Chen Ke nodded, he looked at the sky and felt that he was about to be late, so he said: "Son, we will meet again in the future, I am going to be on duty." ”

couldn't help but say, Chen Ke ran quickly towards Jingzhao Mansion.

The handsome woman looked at Chen Ke's running appearance and smiled slightly: "Brother Huang, is this Chen Ke very famous?" ”

The young man smiled and said, "It's very famous, maybe it can help me pry open a big stone." Let's go, take you to Jingzhao Mansion to see how Lord Long will try the case! ”

"Okay!" The handsome woman laughed.

The sun was already high, and Chen Ke returned to the yamen, almost too late.

changed his clothes and went to duty, and after half an hour, suddenly a head catcher came over: "Chen Ke, you are lucky, come quickly." ”

Chen Ke suspiciously followed the head catcher to the main hall of the mansion, and after entering, an official in charge of merit said with a smile: "Chen Ke, diligent in his duties, loyal to the king, brave and fearless, specially promoted to the official catcher!" ”

"Catch it now!" Chen Ke asked in surprise, "How much is the monthly salary?" ”
