55 Take care of the horse, or break your legs
Shen Wendu had already stuffed the second daughter into the carriage and led the captains to the next house.
"Second brother, I was really afraid that you would be impulsive just now......" Zhang Ben looked at Lin Liangyou Tieqing's face, and his heart was a little stunned, "Your injuries are not tight, right?" ”
"It's fine." Lin Liangyou calmed down, "Big brother, I'm fine." ”
"Second brother, don't go if you're injured." Zhang Ben stepped onto the horse, "I'll go and watch them." ”
It's okay not to go, out of sight, not upset, so Lin Liangyou nodded at Zhang Ben, turned the horse's head and went to the mansion.
There are two things to do here, one is to see if there are any clues to the whereabouts of the third brother Yang Fang, which is more than 80 miles away from Kunshan, where Yang Fang disappeared, and it will take at least a day to ride a horse. Since it is close to the government office, simply go to the yamen to have a look, anyway, the county government will report anything to the government, not to mention that it is still a major matter related to the anti-party.
The second is to explore the tone of the prefect and others by the way, Shen Wendu and they are so blatant to harm the people, it is impossible for the county magistrate, the parents of the people, not to know, either afraid of the power behind Shen Wendu, or to be in cahoots.
Lin Liangyou held back his anger, hoping that this prefect was a corrupt official, so that he could be angry with him.
Riding a horse, I was heading to the prefect's yamen, when I suddenly heard a commotion on the side of the street, accompanied by the loud cry of the little doll. He turned his head to see two bachelors in a restaurant teasing a young woman with a baby in her arms with a hippie smile.
In the Ming Dynasty, the meaning of the bachelor was different from that of the present, and in the Ming Dynasty, "it was commonly said that the scoundrel bandit was a single person who was blackmailed", and in the Qing Dynasty, "the only man without a wife was called a bachelor", which was equivalent to the modern meaning.
The singles of the Ming Dynasty had vast magical powers, and they could buy the government and fight lawsuits for others. They specialize in eating idle meals, being nosy, chasing after the wind, looking for other people's idle minds, provoking right and wrong, and helping to make trouble, so they are also called "headless ghosts".
Sometimes, with brute force, the singles waged evil in the market, intercepting those who bought and sold, and extorted money.
These singles often carry with them meteor sleeve sticks, weighing hammers, sharp knives and other murder weapons, and go back and forth to blackmail the good, bully other people's wives and daughters, and bully and beat ordinary people...... It can be described as doing no evil.
Then no one can cure them?
It's not that it can't be cured...... There are also victims who are not satisfied and go to the yamen to complain, but if they encounter the government's good and evil, or if they are bribed by a single person to reverse right and wrong, it will inevitably cause the victim to be punished together with the single person, so the victim has to swallow his anger, after all, most people just want to live a good life, and more is better than less.
And the singles are even more unscrupulous, and day by day, they have become a trend.
As the saying goes, "people are mixed in the rivers and lakes, and it is best to be single". It must be a portrayal of the Ming Dynasty's singles.
A passer-by had already revealed to Lin Liangyou that at that time, one of the two singles was nicknamed "Drill Hamster" and the other was called "Hanging Eye Tiger".
When Lin Liangyou saw it, the nickname was apt, the one called "Drill Hamster", grinning with two long big teeth; The one called the "Hanging Eye Tiger" really has its eyes hanging upward.
I have to sigh from the bottom of my heart: It's really born from the heart!
And the woman holding the doll, her husband went with Qiu Fubei on the Tatar expedition in July last year, and never returned.
In that battle, the Ming army was completely annihilated in the Yuqu River, because the commander Qiu Fu's light enemy ventured!
Zhu Di was furious, and in January of the following year, he directly gathered an army of 500,000 to conquer Tatar in person!
In May, the army arrived at the Yuqu River, and the bones, armor and weapons of the dead Ming army were everywhere...... This woman's husband should also be among them.
It's really "a pitiful and uncertain riverside bone, like a person in a spring boudoir dream".
Zhu Di ordered the dead Ming soldiers to be buried on the spot, and the Yuqu River was renamed the Yuma River from then on.
This woman usually lives on the three-year military salary paid by the court for her husband's death, and she is already so pitiful that she can't imagine being bullied.
Seeing that there was only a bowl of brown rice and a small bowl of boiled tofu on the table in front of her, she didn't move much. Presumably, the child is hungry and anxious to nurse the baby, but he is blocked by the single; I wanted to leave, but I was also stopped by a single.
She was so anxious that her face turned red, and there seemed to be tears in her eyes, but she just gritted her teeth and gently coaxed the child in her arms, occasionally raising her eyes and staring at the two singles in front of her, but she couldn't even scold a word.
The drill hamster grinned and said, "The little doll is hungry and wants to eat the big white bun!" ”
The hanging eye tiger suddenly became short, and the two hanging eyes glared at the little baby: "Mom won't give it to eat." Frightened, the little doll began to cry again.
Although others are not angry, no one dares to step forward to stop them, and they must all be surprised and not bad.
The drill hamster said: "Little sister-in-law Zhang, I heard that those who died in the war will be paid for four years!" How come you only have three years? Definitely swallowed! I said that I would like to write you a pleading, but you prefer your heart as a donkey's liver and lungs, and you still refuse to ......."
The eye-catching tiger echoed: "That's it! Otherwise, you will be left to my eldest brother, there are people in the eldest brother's court! ”
"Who is your eldest brother?"
"I don't recognize my eldest brother, you don't recognize ......," the Hanging Eye Tiger said and looked back to see who answered, and as soon as he turned his head, he was hit with a strong whip on his face, and a blood mark immediately appeared, extending from his right eye to the left corner of his mouth.
Lin Liangyou flicked his horsewhip, and the sound of breaking the sky made the hearts of the two bachelors in front of him tremble.
They usually deal with the officials, and this brocade guard is the first time......
"Big ...... The adult ...... "The two bachelors saw the flying fish suit embroidered spring knife, and they lost the arrogance of Fang Cai, and they were like defeated roosters, and they were cowardly."
"Let me ask you, who is your eldest brother?" Lin Liangyou also widened his eyes, and the faces of these two people made him very unhappy, and he just used them to vent his anger.
The drill hamster and the hanging tiger looked at each other for a while, and looked at Lin Liangyou at a loss, "Smack!" The drill hamster also received a horsewhip in the face.
"Poof!" Both of them weakened their knees and knelt down: "My lord, spare my life!" ”
"Women and children are bullied, are they still human beings who step on horses?" Lin Yanyou shouted, his eyes swept around, and the spectators who looked up to see the excitement hurriedly lowered their heads to pick up the rice again.
"The adults spare their lives, but the little ones know that they are wrong." The drill hamster and the hanging tiger begged for mercy.
Lin Liangyou asked the shopkeeper for a hemp rope and tied the two singles to the back of the horse. Just as she was about to get on the horse, the woman came out with the child in her arms, and said a deep blessing, her eyes were full of gratitude, and she whispered, "Thank you, sir." ”
Lin Liangyou nodded, and said in his heart: Your husband is the real hero, I am not. If it weren't for the embroidered spring knife on the waist of the flying fish suit, these two bachelors might not be afraid of me.
The strong dragon can't suppress the snake on the ground, and I may not have the confidence to fight for you.
Dragging the drill hamster to hang the tiger, Lin Liangyou deliberately rode the horse very fast, and the two bachelors staggered and followed desperately, for fear of being dragged to the ground.
When the horse came to a mansion, the three big characters "Suzhou Mansion" were written on the horizontal plaque of the tower, and Lin Liangyou jumped off the horse, tied the horse to the black antlers outside the yamen, and said to the two singles who were panting and bloodied:
"Ma Gu, or I'll break your legs!"
