Chapter 1263
Although Wang Xiaoyu is arrogant, he has great respect for Steward Wang. Seeing that Steward Wang was so serious, although he was still a little unconvinced, he didn't dare to refute it. I only heard her say respectfully: "Since Uncle Wang said so, let your old man handle this matter." ”
Steward Wang bowed respectfully to Wang Xiaoyu and said, "Yes, please rest assured." ”
After he finished speaking, he turned around and arched his hand to Xiao Dong, and said, "Sir, please." Under the surname Wang Mingsheng, he is the housekeeper of the king's foreign house. May I ask Mr. Gao's surname, why did he break into Wang Yuanwai's private residence?"
As the saying goes, "Reach out and don't hit a smiling person", although Xiao Dong was arrogant, seeing Wang Sheng so respectful, he was not easy to attack. He thrust the long sword in his hand into the ground, returned the salute, and said, "My surname is Xiao." When I came to your Zhuangzi, I wanted to pick up a friend. But these people under you are dancing with knives and swords, and Xiao is not allowed to enter the village. Xiao was worried about his friend's safety, so he had to punish him slightly. Xiao doesn't want to have anything dirty with Guizhuang, but he is definitely not afraid of things. People respect me, I respect people, Steward Wang, I don't know if you understand what Xiao means?"
Wang Shengzheng said: "I already understand what Mr. Xiao means. I wonder if Mr. Xiao's friend is from Yushuizhuang?"
Li Qiufeng, Murong Danyan and Wang Xiaoyu heard Wang Sheng say this and knew that he would be wrong. I thought that Xiao Dong came to the door because Wangjiazhuang detained more than 70 men in Yushuizhuang. Li Qiufeng was about to open his mouth to explain, but he heard Xiao Dong sneer: "What Yushui Village Yushan Villa, Xiao has never heard of it at all!"
When he said this, he pointed to Li Qiufeng who was standing on the side with his right hand, and said, "The friend Xiao is looking for is this Zhu Gongzi!"
Wang Sheng had already inquired about Li Qiufeng's origin from Zhuang Ding's mouth, and knew that he was a friend of the eldest lady. At this time, he was relieved to hear that Xiao Dongbing did not break into the village to rescue the people of Yushui Village, and a smile was already on his face. He said to Xiao Dong: "Zhu Gongzi is a distinguished guest of our village, and the owner of the village and his old man have had a wine conversation with Zhu Gongzi today, how dare we offend him? I think it was Zhu Gongzi who delayed in the village for a long time, which made Mr. Xiao feel uneasy. This is the fault of our village, and I ask Mr. Xiao to forgive him. ”
After Wang Sheng finished speaking, he took a deep look at Xiao Dong. Xiao Dong hurriedly returned the salute and said, "Steward Wang is polite." It was Xiao who thought about it and trespassed on your village, and he was offended, so he asked Steward Wang to forgive him. ”
Everyone saw that Wang Sheng and Xiao Dong had released their previous suspicions, and they were polite to each other, and the original tense momentum disappeared immediately. Many of the Zhuang Ding of Wangjiazhuang have already put down their swords. Qin Lao Wu and the three boatmen also put the steel knife back and quietly watched Xiao Dong and Wang Sheng talk.
Li Qiufeng saw that Wang Sheng was acting steadily, and secretly thought in his heart, no wonder this person could sit on the chair of the big butler of Wangjiazhuang, and he was really a powerful person. It's just that this person's speech and demeanor seem to be somewhat familiar, as if he has seen it somewhere. But it was strange that I had met him for the first time.
Wang Sheng exchanged a few polite words with Xiao Dong, and said, "Please invite Mr. Xiao and a few friends to sit down and talk in the front hall." After he finished speaking, he turned his head and glanced at Li Qiufeng, and said, "Zhu Gongzi will also go with him." ”
Li Qiufeng nodded, and said, "This is natural." ”
Wang Sheng drank and retreated from the Zhuang Ding, and then he led the way, and took Xiao Dong, Li Qiufeng, Qin Lao Wu and others all the way to the main hall in the courtyard. Wang Xiaoyu and Murong Danyan also followed. After everyone sat down, a servant had already brought fragrant tea. Wang Sheng picked up the teacup, said "please" to everyone, and then put the teacup to his lips and took a sip. Wang Xiaoyu and Murong Danyan also took a sip of the teacup, but Xiao Dong, Qin Lao Wu and the others just held the teacup in their hands, but did not drink it.
Li Qiufeng saw that Xiao Dong refused to drink tea, and knew that he had scruples about Wang Jiazhuang's self-indulgence, for fear that Wang Sheng would do something in the tea. Li Qiufeng thought that Xiao Dong was worthy of being in the officialdom of the capital for many years, although he was arrogant, but he was quite cautious in doing things, but he was not all without merit.
Wang Sheng saw that Xiao Dong and the others refused to drink tea, but he was not reluctant, and still talked and laughed with Xiao Dong. Li Qiufeng secretly thought in his heart, this Wang Steward was not shocked, calm and comfortable, and he was also an extremely powerful character.
Seeing Xiao Dong like this, Wang Xiaoyu sneered, and was about to make a sarcastic remark, when Wang Sheng glanced at her and signaled her not to have a dirty relationship with Xiao Dong again. Wang Xiaoyu didn't speak, but just glared at Xiao Dong viciously, and whispered to Murong Danyan to himself.
Xiao Dong chatted with Wang Sheng for a few words, and then Zhengse said: "It's not early, we still have important things to do." I asked Steward Wang to hand over Wei Erbao to us and take it away, and it was not in vain that we tossed for most of the day. ”
Wang Sheng was stunned for a moment, and said: "Wei Erbao, there is no one surnamed Wei in our Zhuangzi!"
Xiao Dong's face changed, thinking that you, as a housekeeper, actually lied to your face, could it be that you are entertaining Lao Tzu? Wang Sheng saw Xiao Dong's eyes showing a fierce light, and he was suspicious, and he was about to ask, but he heard Wang Xiaoyu say: "The one surnamed Wei was detained by me." You want people, just ask me. ”
Wang Sheng turned to Wang Xiaoyu and said, "Miss, why is this surnamed Wei detained in our Zhuangzi?
Wang Xiaoyu briefly recounted yesterday's incident, and finally said to Wang Sheng: "It was Wu Laosi who came out of the mess and caused this trouble. I haven't told my father yet, but I have promised Zhu Gongzi to hand over Wei Erbao to him to take away. ”
When Wang Xiaoyu said this, he glanced at Xiao Dong and said coldly: "I'm giving face to Gongzi Zhu and Sister Murong." If it were another cat or dog to ask for someone, I would never hand Wei Erbao over to him to take away. ”
Xiao Dong's face was gloomy, but he didn't speak, but he thought to himself, there are indeed a lot of Zhuang Ding in your Wangjiazhuang, but they are all reckless men, and Lao Tzu can beat you rural villagers to the desert with a long sword. You little girl doesn't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, showing off your power in front of Lao Tzu. Lao Tzu has no time to clean you up at the moment, and after returning to the Central Plains from Fusang, Lao Tzu will come to you again to settle accounts!
Wang Sheng nodded and said to Wang Xiaoyu: "Since the eldest lady has already told Zhu Gongzi, then hand over Wei Erbao to a few people to take away." But I have a word I want to say to the eldest lady, and please don't be angry. ”
Wang Xiaoyu stuck out his tongue and said with a smile: "Uncle Wang, I know what you want to say." You can rest assured that in the future, I will never be so reckless and detain people in the Zhuangzi at will. ”
Wang Sheng looked at Wang Xiaoyu's hippie smiling face, sighed and said: "Miss, Dongliao County is not peaceful at the moment, and many people have bad intentions towards our Wangjiazhuang, and they all want to get some money from Zhuangzi. In the past few years, the yamen has extorted money from our Zhuangzi, and even the construction of a temple on the Sky Ridge has allowed us to take money. The owner of the village runs around every day, just to make more money, otherwise the Wangjiazhuang would have fallen and scattered. At this critical juncture, we can no longer give the truth to those villains and yamen with ill intentions, otherwise they will definitely blackmail us. Miss, I may not like to hear this, but it is indeed for Wangjiazhuang, and I ask for forgiveness from Miss. ”
Wang Xiaoyu waved his hands wildly, shook his head again and again, and said: "Where did Uncle Wang come from? Thanks to Uncle Wang for helping my father take care of it, our Zhuangzi can be so organized." Uncle Wang taught him a lesson, and his niece remembered it. ”
Xiao Dong saw that although Wang Xiaoyu was still arrogant to herself, she was quite rude, but since she had agreed to hand over Wei Erbao, she didn't have to entangle with this little girl anymore. It was Xiao Dong who stood up and said to Wang Sheng: "Steward Wang, please bring Wei Erbao, let's leave." ”
Before Wang Sheng could speak, Wang Xiaoyu sneered and said, "Wei Erbao was detained by me, and Uncle Wang doesn't know where I locked him up. But you only asked Uncle Wang if you wanted someone, don't you want to owe me favors?"
Xiao Dong saw that the sky outside the house had darkened, and thought to himself that there was no need for him to be angry with this little girl, and take Wei Erbao away earlier, so as not to have any more trouble. It was he who arched his hand to Wang Xiaoyu, and said, "Please let the eldest lady release Wei Erbao and hand it over to Xiao to take away." Xiao owes the eldest lady a favor, and one day she will pay it back. ”
Wang Xiaoyu saw that although Xiao Dong's words were quite reluctant, but after all, he was subduing himself, so he couldn't help but smile proudly, and then ordered a Zhuang Ding to bring Wei Erbao. Not long after the Zhuang Ding went, he heard the sound of footsteps, and more than a dozen people walked in from outside the main hall. The dozen or so people were tied to their right arms with a rope tied in a long line, and were led in by two Zhuang Ding. Wang Sheng was stunned, and secretly thought that he had only detained a person surnamed Wei? Why did he bring over a dozen people at once?!
