Chapter 226: Driven Out of the City

Jiang Wanning soaked in a medicinal bath and lay on the couch, while Lin Ruoruo was administering needles to her.

Qingxing came in: "Lady, Xiao Pan is back." ”

"Well, how do you say that?"

"Xiao Pan said that they are still floating on the street at this time, the surname Zheng is unwilling to lose money, and he is reluctant to spend money to rent another house to live in, and the inn is full again, laughing to death."

Lin Ruoruo was speechless: "Then the Zheng family is too picky, what's wrong with renting another house to live in?" Isn't there still rent to be collected here? I don't want to think about another patient around. Master Song had already had a stroke, and now I'm afraid his condition will be even more serious. ”

Jiang Wanning said: "The Zheng family is this kind of character, and they would rather suffer hardships than losses." ”

The house in Chunhui Lane was rented by her, and she rented it for three years, and asked Yaxing to raise the rent of the rental house, Zheng did not want to suffer a loss, and definitely did not rent, several inns in the capital that still had spare rooms, she also let people charter all the empty houses, with money in hand, and it was easy to do things.

She just calculated the temperament of the Zheng family, so that their family had nowhere to go.

Doesn't Song Qian like Zheng the most? Dig out his heart and lungs to give his wife's family to the Zheng family, and now let him enjoy the "special care" of his most beloved woman!

"They're not going to just sleep on the streets tonight!" Qingxing gloated.

"That's not going to happen." Jiang Wanning said.

She has informed Zheng Guan to patrol the streets tonight.

As soon as the pox epidemic ended, no one was allowed to wander the streets at night in the capital, and all the beggars were driven out of the city.

Tonight they have to spend the night at the shelter.

He will be kicked out of the city early tomorrow morning.

Song family, if you want to blame Song Yu, whoever makes him thief not die, he has to trouble her.

She had to find a way to get them away.

In the dead of night, two carriages and seven or eight servants and servants were still wandering the streets.

Song didn't drink the medicine, he didn't have to eat, and his condition was getting worse and worse.

He vaguely reproached Zheng: "Why don't you rent a house?" ”

Zheng also blocked this breath with the steward of the tooth shop: "Master, do you know how much silver we will lose this time in and out?" It's the worst house with only two entrances to the monthly rent of 16 taels, and it's remote, and there is nothing in it, so you have to prepare it yourself, and you have to rent it for a year, it's not cost-effective, and we can't stay in the capital for a year. ”

"You wish I had died sooner." Song Qian gritted his teeth.

Regret not at the beginning, he was blind, only then did he feel that her calculations would live, in the past, Zheng's gentle understanding, those sweet words he said, were all false, and when it came to the end, he didn't care about his life or death.

Song Qian couldn't help but think of Yao's, Yao's heart and lungs were really heartfelt to him, and he never said a word about what he wanted, but he was fascinated by Zheng's family, and he never wanted to look at Yao's more, and even disliked it incomparably.

It was all his fault that the Yao family fell into the current situation, if it wasn't for him pushing the Yao family too hard, why would the Yao family bother to calculate Jiang Wanning's marriage.

Song Qian felt that it was the Zheng family that really caused the fall of the Song family at this time, spoiling the concubine and killing his wife, and causing trouble in the family, which was indeed true.

But now he regrets it too late, he doesn't know if he can return to Jiangcheng alive.

"Master, don't worry, I don't believe that there is no inn with spare rooms in the huge capital." Zheng said.

Song Qian closed his eyes and was upset when he saw this poisonous woman, he had to make a deal for himself, while he still had a breath.

"Stop, who are you?" A loud shout came.

Song Jing lifted the curtain and saw that it was a team of officers and soldiers, as if they were from the City Patrol Division.

Song Jing hurriedly got out of the car and bowed his hand: "Official, we are from Jiangcheng, my father is a Tongzhi of Xuancheng, and we are looking for an inn." ”

"It's not good to be an official in Xuancheng, from time to time, what are you doing in the capital? Do you know that the pox epidemic in the capital has just ended, and you are not allowed to wander the streets at night. ”

"I know, I know, it's not like I can't find the inn for a while!"

"Don't look for the inn, where is the inn that is not full now, since it is an official body, you can go to the post house to live temporarily, bring the official seal, we will check, if it is not fake, you can be sent to the post station."

Song Jing went back to the carriage and asked his father to come to the official seal.

The official looked at the official seal and said, "You go to the shelter tonight, and then make a decision after the official seal is verified by the Ministry of Officials tomorrow." ”

"Huh? Going to a shelter? How can this be, my father is still sick. Song Jing was surprised.

Aren't all shelters places where displaced people go?

The official lowered his face: "Do you still know that your father is sick?" Why did you go earlier? You are relatives of the official family, and you are not without money in your hands, and you are willing to spend a little more money, so you have already found a place to live and take it away. ”

The officers and soldiers came forward and drove the Song family to the shelter without saying anything.

After waiting for everyone to leave, Zheng Guan came out of the darkness.

"Thank you, Brother Lu."

The official surnamed Lu said: "Brother Zheng, you don't have to be polite, it's just a gesture." ”

Zheng Guansai went over a piece of silver: "Buying wine for the brothers, it's hard at night." ”

The surnamed Lu was also polite, and said, "Then I will accept it for the brothers." ”

That night, this official seal was sent to the ministry, and the official on duty in the ministry looked at the seal and said: "This seal is real, but we are about to take it back, that person is no longer Xuancheng Tongzhi, he has been demoted to Jiangcheng Warden, oh yes, at this time he should have gone to Jiangcheng to take office, why is he still staying in the capital?" and tomorrow they will drive them out of the city. ”

Song Qian has recently become famous in the Ministry of Officials, everyone knows his deeds, and they despise him very much, this official thinks that Song Qian does not go to Jiangcheng to take office, and he must want to move around when he comes to the capital, so he can't let him stay in the capital.

got a reply from the ministry, and the surnamed Lu had no worries at all.

The Song family was locked up in the shelter, which was full of beggars, full of foul smells, picking their noses, picking their feet, and falling asleep, snoring and drooling, as disgusting as they wanted.

The Song family huddled in a corner, with no bed, only tattered straw mats.

Song Jing couldn't help complaining about her mother: "It's all you, you have to care about those few taels of silver, but now it's okay, it's reduced to being in the company of beggars, it's a shame, and it's rumored that people are laughing to death." ”

Zheng himself couldn't stand it, and said weakly: "I'll go rent a house tomorrow." ”

Song Yun begged for some water to feed her father, and saw that her father's eyes had completely lost their former luster and majesty, and she was lifeless, and Song Yun wanted to cry uncomfortably.

Mother is already crazy, and Brother can't count on it, if her father is gone, who else can she rely on?

finally got to the dawn, and the official who brought them here before came.

"Your name is Song Qian, right, your official seal, the Ministry of Officials has taken it back, and on the orders of the Ministry of Officials, I will drive you out of the city today."

Song Yu jumped up: "I still have something to do in Beijing, I won't leave." ”

Bang, the person surnamed Lu raised his hand and slapped him, and Song Yu's head was buzzing, and half of his face was numb.

"It's not up to you." The surnamed Lu said coldly.
