Chapter 19: The Third King of Yellow Fat

As soon as Gu Xiaomei left, Zeng's struggled to sit up, his face was whiter than paper for a while, and sweat flowed from the corner of his forehead all the way to his chin.

Zeng finally leaned on the soft pillow, gasped and said:

"You girl, you can't tell that the Gu family is deliberately provoking you! So who is Wang San? If you can easily get this money back, you won't be able to get it back when your father is here! ”

Tao Jiang knew that his mother was anxious that he would suffer a secret loss at Wang San's hands, so he hurriedly brought a cup of tea to Zeng's family to slow down.

And Wang San's Tao Jiang has also heard of it--

He was originally a splash in the east of the city, and in the early years, he specialized in stealing chickens and dogs.

By chance, Wang San saved Cheng Dashan, the son of the county order, under the knife and stick, and the county order thanked Wang San, so he let Cheng Dashan worship Wang San as a righteous brother.

And Wang San turned into a righteous son of the county order.

Then the rat fell into the rice bowl.

Wang San relied on the support of the county order behind him, and proclaimed himself "Yellow Fat Wang San", and accepted a group of little brothers who couldn't get on the stage, specializing in collecting rent and lending, molesting people's girls, collecting protection money and other dirty things.

If you want to recover the bad debts of two years ago from the hands of this kind of ruffian, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is Gu Xiaomei deliberately stumbling on Tao Jiang.

But Tao Jiang didn't see any panic on his face, he was still as delicate as a delicate flower, and comforted Zeng's words:

"Mother, settle down. If I am not completely sure, how can I happily agree to this! ”

Seeing that Tao Jiang's face was calm, Xie Shi also calmed down a little, patted Zeng's hand and said:

"Sister-in-law, our Jiang Er is the one who has passed the three levels and won the position of the master of the Hecai Hall, is it possible that he will be afraid of a yellow fat king?"

When Zeng heard this, he looked at Xie and then at Tao Jiang, and then he tightened his heart a little.

The three of them gossiped for a while, and when they saw that Zeng was tired, they dispersed.

……

Tao Jiang's courtyard is separated from Zeng's main house by a cloister.

As soon as she entered the cloister, the citrus behind her hurriedly asked:

"Miss, do you really have a way to get the 3,000 taels of silver back?"

Tao Jiang lowered his head and walked briskly, secretly thinking of a way in his mind, and after a long while, he raised his head and said to Citrus Shi:

"Didn't you say that one of the little guys in the outer courtyard is your distant cousin, and he is very clever? I have two things for him to do here, and he will be rewarded for doing a good job! ”

Early in the morning of the second day, Tao Jiang finished washing and went to the main house to accompany Zeng's to have a morning meal.

On this day, the morning food was extremely abundant. Xu is Zeng's decoction has become less recently, and his appetite for rice has increased--

On a small round table of golden silk sandalwood, there are small bowls of sea cucumbers, boiled cabbage with shredded chicken, duck hanging from the bird's nest, fried tofu with shallots and shrimps, white sugar oil cake, Wuding buns, and a bowl of red bean and barley porridge in front of each of them.

Although Zeng's appetite is good, he is full after eating two or three bites of each one, and after stopping the chopstick, he will watch Tao Jiang eat with determination.

Tao Jiang was a little embarrassed in such an affectionate gaze.

She raised her head and looked around, breaking this affectionate embarrassment:

"Why didn't I see Mama Wang today? Didn't she cook for her mother every day? ”

The maid behind Zeng's was just promoted by Mama Wang recently, her name is "Yalu", the little girl's eyes are calm, and she looks at it as a stable person, and she replied to Tao Jiang at this moment:

"Mama said that there was a pickle shop from Nanling in the east of the city, and the ten coriander in the shop was my favorite taste when I was a child. Because the pickle shop business was booming, Mama Wang went to line up to buy pickles before dawn. ”

When Zeng heard this, he just smiled and shook his head.

This Mama Wang treats Zeng's as if she were an eyeball.

Obviously, Zeng's is also a mother, but in her eyes, she is always a little girl who doesn't know the world, but everything delicious has to be held in front of her.

With such a person protecting my mother, I will be able to feel much more at ease when I am out of business in the future.

was thinking about it, but I heard Mama Wang's voice in the corridor:

"Amazing! Amazing! What a surprise today! ”

Before the words fell, the person had entered the main hall.

Zeng smiled and asked the girl to serve a cup of tea to Mama, and said:

"Mama has seen something strange outside, come and tell us."

Zeng's long-term illness is full of novelty about the outside world.

Mama Wang took a sip of tea, raised her head and glanced at Tao Jiang secretly:

"Today's anecdote is related to our little miss."

"Something to do with Jiang'er? Then you still sell off! "Tsang's heart is anxious.

Mama Wang didn't stumble either, and said with a smile:

"When I went to the east of the city today, I saw children in the streets and alleys reciting a limerick poem. Miss, guess what they read? ”

Seeing her relaxed expression, Zeng thought that it was not a bad thing, and after his heart settled down a little, he asked with a smile:

"Tell me, what are they reading?"

"These children chanted - it is difficult to collect debts, it is difficult to collect debts, the heavens and the earth are boundless, Wang San borrowed 30,000 taels from me, you hide from me to chase and hide! It's hard to ask for money, it's hard to ask for money, ask the grandfather to tell the grandmother not to give money, Wang San owes me 30,000 taels, and I have become an old man without discussion! ”

Mama Wang learned the tone of a child, which caused Zeng to laugh and bend over, and it took a while for Mama Wang to ask:

"Little Miss, if the old slave didn't guess wrong, this must have been instructed by you!"

Tao Jiang was still savoring the red bean porridge in front of him, and he didn't answer, just looked at Mama Wang with a smile.

Zeng's heart was careful, and after laughing for a while, he frowned:

"Jiang'er, doesn't Wang San owe us three thousand taels? How did it become 30,000...... And with a few children reciting some limericks, will this Wang San return the money to us? He shouldn't care about fame like that, right? ”

Tao Jiang smiled mysteriously and said:

"It's certainly not enough to just make limericks. But how could I not have a follow-up! ”

Tao Jiang understood that Wang Sanzi would not care about this kind of rumors.

But he doesn't care, it doesn't mean that the county order in the county government doesn't care.

Last night, she asked her cousin to gather a group of little beggars in the east of the city, a group of people walked the streets and alleys to read limericks, and the rest of the group stood at the gate of the county government and read aloud!

No one in Xiangxi County knows that Wang San is the godson of Cheng County Order, and his every move represents Cheng County Order's style in a sense.

Before, Cheng County Ling turned a blind eye to Wang San's evil deeds such as collecting rent and lending, and that was because of their collusion between officials and businessmen, and Cheng County Ling also received a lot of benefits from Wang San behind his back.

And this matter of borrowing money has nothing to do with the Cheng County Order.

Now, these little beggars are standing at the gate of the county government and reciting limericks, this county order can be as stable as Mount Tai, as a deaf ear?

Of course he couldn't!

What's more, Tao Jiang changed the real arrears of "three thousand taels" to "thirty thousand taels" in a limerick poem with ulterior motives.

In this way, she is still afraid that Wang San will not come to the door?

As long as he comes to the door, then the arrears will not have to worry.

Sure enough, before Tao Jiang finished drinking a bowl of porridge, he heard Citrus Fruit rushing in in a hurry:

"Miss, no! Oh no! That yellow fat king three came to the door! ”
