In the mourning hall...

Pei Xueyan wore linen and wore filial piety to guard the spirit, and there was a oily and powdery boy on the side.

The son's brother is called Xu Shizhong, he is the second son of the Xu family, a large rice merchant in Heyang County, this time he came with his old father to worship Song Yuanwai, he never thought that after worshipping in the mourning hall, he couldn't walk when he saw Pei Xueyan in filial piety clothes, and it seemed that his soul was hooked...

They all say that they want to be pretty, and they are filial...

Pei Xueyan's posture is already excellent, but now she is wearing filial piety clothes, and her haggard look adds a bit of feminine delicacy and delicacy, which makes people want to be comforted in her arms.

And Xu Shizhong's old father is also a good person, he can see his son's thoughts, and he also knows that the Song family's property is now in the hands of this young grandmother of the Song family.

secretly thought that if his son could take it down, it would be the dowry of the entire Song family's industry!

Compared with such a large dowry in the Song family's industry, the criticism of the identity of the 'widow' is insignificant...

So he pretended not to see it, went to the courtyard and sat down, and let his son go and pay his respects.

And Pei Xueyan saw that the person who came was oily-haired, although she felt a little embarrassed, but considering that the other party was a guest who came to worship the old man, and this place was a mourning hall, it was not good to say anything serious, so she had to say a few perfunctory words.

"Young Grandma's Day mourning..."

Xu Shizhong looked at the pretty widow in the mourning hall, and the greed in his eyes seemed to be condensed into substance, but he pretended to be sad and relieved: "Old Man Song and his father have been friends for many years, and now that they have passed away, Xu, as a junior, is also heartbroken. ”

“……”

Pei Xueyan secretly thought that when the old man Song was dying, he was sick in bed for a few days, and no one from the Xu family came to visit, and now that the old man was funeral, what did he say about his friends for many years, it was really hypocritical.

She was quite impatient by this person, so she could only be patient and perfunctory: "Xu Gongzi just has this heart." ”

"It's not enough to have this heart..."

Xu Shizhong showed a smile that he thought was very gentle, and said: "Now that the old man Song has passed away, it must be inconvenient for the young grandmother to run this huge family business alone. ”

His voice paused, and he said meaningfully: "My Xu family had business dealings with the Song family in the early years, and Xu, as the younger generation of the old man, is not an outsider. ”

“……”

Before Pei Xueyan's 'mind' could be said, she heard a voice with a hint of anger coming from outside the mourning hall: "I said it for her, mind!" ”

“……”

The voice outside the mourning hall sounded very suddenly...

Xu Shizhong saw that his words were picked up by outsiders, and he still didn't leave any emotion in his 'mind' words, and turned to look at the person with a frown.

And Pei Xueyan saw the figure walking outside the mourning hall, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a subtle smile.

Seeing that the person who came was sturdy, and the eyes that looked at him were full of anger, Xu Shizhong panicked inexplicably.

"This brother, you ......"

"What is this place?"

Liu Shen interrupted him, walked up to him and pointed to the coffin in the mourning hall, and asked sharply: "Don't nonsense, let me ask you, what kind of place is this!?" ”

"This ...... This ......"

Xu Shizhong looked at the eyes of the person who came, and a feeling of 'is this person trying to kill me' inexplicably rose in his heart.

He rolled his Adam's apple up and down, and answered honestly: "This is the mourning hall of Old Man Song......

"Smack......

As soon as his words fell, Liu Shen slapped his backhand in the face, the action was so crisp, and the voice was so loud that Pei Xueyan and Hu Qiang, who came over, were stunned.

And Xu Shizhong was slapped back several steps, covering his hot face as if he was stunned, and his expression was a little dazed and aggrieved...

"You're not a little daring!"

Seeing that he was so unbearable, Liu Shen became more and more angry in his heart, stepped forward and grabbed him by the collar and scolded: "Knowing that this is a mourning hall, you dare to pester the young grandmother of the Song family here?" Well? ”

"I ......"

As soon as Xu Shizhong wanted to speak, he found that the murderer raised his hand and slapped him again, and the words that had just reached his mouth were swallowed back into his stomach...

His brain was buzzing, and he grinned against the other half of his face, which was also swollen.

Liu Shen dragged him out of the mourning hall like a dead dog.

He knows the truth that people go to tea and cool, but now that the old man Song has only been gone for a few days, and the bones have not yet entered the ground, such a good person dares to come to the Song family to covet Pei Xueyan.

How could he not be annoyed?

Liu Shen threw Xu Shizhong out of the mourning hall in his hand, and reprimanded him with anger on his face: "If it weren't for the fact that the old man Song would not be able to see blood at the funeral today, I would have to let you kneel outside the mourning hall and smash the green bricks on the ground!" ”

"You ......"

"Get out!!"

“……”

Xu Shizhong's face turned white, and he didn't dare to say the cruel words that came to his mouth after all.

He knew that he was powerless, and he was definitely not the opponent of the strong man, so he didn't dare to say anything cruel at the moment, so he ran outside with his red and swollen cheeks.

Looking at the man's embarrassed back, Hu Qiang's eyes rolled, and he leaned over to Liu Shen and whispered: "Hall Master Liu, that kid seems to be from the Xu family in the west of the city, and his family is engaged in the rice and grain business. ”

"The Xu family?"

Liu Shen nodded thoughtfully and asked, "Then does the Xu family have business dealings with our Qingsha Gang?" ”

"I don't know..."

Hu Qiang said with a smile: "But Master Liu, you don't have to worry, in today's Heyang County, even the county lord has to give us some thin noodles for the Qingsha Gang, not to mention a small Xu family." ”

His voice paused, and he said meaningfully: "But I heard that the Xu family seems to have some thugs, and I don't think that kid seems to be a good person, most of them will look for people to find a field, do you want me to go to the nearby hall to find some clever brothers?" ”

"Okay."

Liu Shen bowed slightly, and explained: "If that guy really doesn't know how to find someone to find a place, you can bring some brothers to block them in the middle of the road, just don't let them come here to delay Old Man Song's funeral." ”

"Hey, hey, let's understand this little thing."

Hu Qiang smiled when he heard this, and after arching his hand to Liu Shen, he also slipped out.

In the blink of an eye, there were only two people left in the mourning hall...

Pei Xueyan looked at what Liu Shen had done, there seemed to be a smile in the corners of her eyes, and asked, "Did you beat him because of me, or because of the old man?" ”

"Is there any conflict?"

Liu Shen snorted coldly, pursed his lips and said, "I don't dare to talk about the wind and the moon in the old man's mourning hall with such a thick skin, what kind of thing is he?" ”

"Why are you so majestic?"

Pei Xueyan smiled when she heard this, but she was still a little worried and disgusted: "Then the Xu family is also a rich family with some assets in Heyang County, if you beat the second son of their family, they will definitely not give up." ”

She has been working on the funeral of Old Man Song these days, and Liu Shen has never told her about the dock, so she doesn't know that Liu Shen has completed the identity transformation from 'dock porter' to 'deputy hall master of the Qingsha Gang' in just over ten days.

In addition, Hu Qiang spoke softly, although she saw the two talking, she didn't know what the two were discussing.

"You don't have to worry about this..."

Liu Shengang wanted to explain that he was not afraid of his small Xu family now, but before he could say anything, he saw Pei Yingli coming in a hurry.

"Snow geese..."

Pei Yingli glanced at Liu Shen quite vigilantly after he arrived, and then asked, "I just heard from someone that someone is pestering you in the mourning hall?" ”

"What does Master Pei think of me?"

Liu Shen also sneered in his heart when he saw his posture, and asked with an innocent look on his face: "Could it be that Master Pei thinks that someone Liu is pestering the young grandmother in the mourning hall?" ”

"Dad, don't get me wrong..."

Pei Xueyan on the side hurriedly explained: "The person who pestered me just now has been driven away by my friend. ”

"That's okay, that's okay..."

Pei Yingli was secretly relieved when he heard that the person who was pestering his daughter had been driven away, and sighed: "This person's heart, through the belly, Snow Goose, you are simple-minded, but don't be deceived by outsiders." ”

'Don't be deceived by outsiders?' Meaning you're a father who can lie to her, right? ’

Liu Shen sneered in his heart when he heard this, and he also knew that Pei Yingli was warning himself in disguise...

Thinking that the piglet had already been half killed, he didn't want to be here with the snake, so he bowed his hand and said goodbye, and went out...
