Chapter 309: This Job Is Done, Aggrieved!
The eldest son of the Qi family was robbed, although he did not take the initiative to publicize this matter, but there are still many people who know, "I heard that it took 300,000 taels to redeem the person, and I don't know where the kidnappers came from, so bold." ”
Niu Wanqing shook her head from time to time, eager to personally lead the troops to encircle and suppress, but she didn't know what was going on with her eldest brother, she was indifferent after learning the news, and even suppressed the people below who wanted to do it, only saying that she had been very busy recently and had no time to deal with this matter.
Cheng Xiaosi was curious, "The Qi family didn't report to the official?" ”
"Where does a businessman dare to report to the official?"
Niu Wanqing was very helpless, "I'm afraid of retaliation, the so-called people don't raise officials and don't hold them accountable, I'm afraid this matter will not be resolved." ”
Cheng Xiaosi felt that this era was really dangerous, such a thing could happen under the emperor's nose, if those places where the emperor was far away were not more dangerous?
Just as they spoke, Mrs. Zhang received a note and a jade pendant, Zhang Dewen officially fell into the hands of the bandits, asking for 300,000 taels, which can scare the Zhang family enough, Mrs. Zhang was afraid that her son would have an accident and would take the family to redeem people, and the rest of the Zhang family asked her if she leaked the news, how did the Zhang family explain how the 300,000 taels came from?
Some people advocated reporting to the official, but where did Mrs. Zhang dare to take risks, and soon the Zhang family was in chaos, and Mrs. Zhang, whose husband was not around, almost single-handedly competed with the entire Zhang family, saying that she would take money to save her son.
It's a pity that the Zhang family doesn't know, their every move is under the control of the emperor, and when he learned that the Zhang family could really take out 300,000 taels, the emperor regretted his decision a little, and he originally thought that he would wait for the money to be moved to a poor country for his Lord Zhang.
"Where did the crown prince and the third prince dance again?"
The chamberlain bowed and replied, "The prince is busy with this year's Spring Festival, and I heard that the third prince made an appointment with Miss Fang Thirteen to go to the Qing today." ”
The emperor snorted coldly, "He's busy, Fang Qinyu is going to the capital, right?" ”
Recently, he has become more and more disdainful of this son, like a butterfly, and he wants the girl to be beautiful and moving, and he also needs the girl's illustrious family background to be his help, very greedy.
suddenly understood why Cheng Daqi's daughter hated him so much.
At noon on this day, General Erniu successfully instilled his old father-in-law, and then took Cheng Erniang back after taking a short rest at Cheng's house. ”
Cheng Xiaosi said that he would go to Niu's house to see General Niu's waist in two days, and 'by the way' to see how her sister was doing.
Cheng Daqi knew the news of Zhang Dewen's abduction in the evening, and saw that his old father-in-law's eyes changed, thinking that if he indulged this old father-in-law, it didn't mean that none of the rich sons in the capital could escape this poisonous hand.
Xiao Zhanpeng gave him a blank look, he has been washing his hands for so many years, who is he doing this kind of thing for?
I feel that the emperor is old and confused, so he can't clean up these corrupt people openly, so he has to fight violence with violence?
Aren't you afraid that those officials will become more greedy after losing their money?
This job is done, aggrieved!
"Now that the girl is married, there's nothing to worry about, take a good errand and earn more money for the emperor, now our family can be regarded as open-minded, and our heads are shaking."
Xiao Zhanpeng felt that this emperor was not very reliable, and his son was not reliable, and now they still knew that the emperor had instructed the children of the official family to extort money, would they turn his face ruthlessly afterwards and want to kill them secretly?
Hey, he wants to run away.
Of course, Cheng Daqi knows what to do as soon as possible to give the emperor a little sweetness, so as to keep their wealth, "I didn't delay my errand, I have been working all the time, which year is not the second half of the year to make money?" ”
The emperor was so anxious that he couldn't resist it.
On March 15th, the Xiao family officially moved, their new mansion had already been repaired, and the Xiao family sisters couldn't wait to go three times a day to see it.
When the firecrackers exploded at the gate at the auspicious time, Xiao Zhanpeng was the first to raise his legs and step into the door, followed by the children and grandchildren behind him, and everyone had to say two auspicious words when they entered the door, and there were bursts of laughter.
The Yuan family next door also sent congratulatory gifts, and Mrs. Yuan and others were present in person.
"This house is really well repaired, and it looks spacious and magnificent."
The Xiao family's house does not have too many common flowers and plants, and the courtyard is full of eighteen weapons, which looks like a martial arts hall, Mrs. Yuan said with a smile: "With so many chivalrous warriors of the Xiao family living next door, I am much more down-to-earth." ”
Old Madam Xiao said with a smile: "The men in the family have to practice every day, and the sound is a bit loud, if it is noisy, please bear with Mrs. Yuan." ”
"Where did the old lady say, we have always been looking forward to you being able to live here, a little loud and lively, in the future, our two families will be close, and we have to take care of each other."
Although the Yuan family is a family, it does not mean to underestimate the Xiao family, not to mention that the Xiao family is still the grandfather of Xiaosi, and it is even more polite to treat each other.
Xiao He brought the people of the dart game to support the scene, as soon as they arrived in this house, it was even more lively, maybe it would be more appropriate to say that it was noisy, Cheng Xiaosi asked Yuan Su beside him, "The dart masters don't have too many scruples when they speak, will your mother not be used to it?" ”
Yuan Su said: "Maybe, but she will go back later, and she won't stay long." ”
Cheng Xiaosi asked him to take care of it more, in her eyes, not to mention the different social status of the two families, even the speaking habits are also very different, the Xiao family is hearty and likes to talk loudly and laugh loudly, while the Yuan family is polite and subtle, and they can't talk together.
Sure enough, soon Mrs. Yuan said goodbye, Xiao He personally sent people to the door, Mrs. Yuan smiled and said: "Don't send it, it's only a matter of a few steps, go out and walk a few steps forward." ”
Xiao He said that the hospitality was not good, and Mrs. Yuan comforted her with a smile, and then went out, leaving Yuan Su here to help.
As soon as Mrs. Yuan left, the voice of the Xiao family was a little louder than just now, it can be seen that Mrs. Yuan was still alone just now, and Mrs. Yuan was a little restrained, Cheng Xiaosi asked Yuan Su with a smile, "Aren't you leaving?" ”
Yuan Su was puzzled, and Cheng Xiaosi told him with a smile, "If you don't find a reason to slip away now, you won't be able to leave later." ”
"My grandfather bought a lot of wine."
Yuan Su smiled, "Then you can't go." ”
As soon as the words fell, General Erniu came with Cheng Erniang, and Yuan Su smiled: "Look, it's here again, and I'm even more afraid of having someone with me." ”
