Cheng Kun immediately understood the meaning of Tang Zhong's words, he walked in front of Tang San, knelt on his knees, and kowtowed three times: "Master is above, please accept the apprentice's worship." ”

Tang Zhong helped Cheng Kun up, "Although you and I are now masters and apprentices, we don't need to make this big gift." ”

Cheng Kun stood up, shook his head, and his little face was solemn: "A teacher for one day, a father for life." ”

Hearing this, Tang Zhong was moved, and he also said to Cheng Kun with a solemn expression: "Okay, good apprentice, as long as you are willing to learn, I will not have the slightest reservation." ”

One of them is sincere and sincere, and the other is conscientious, although there is no witness from others, they don't care about these minutiae people. After Cheng Kun stood up, the two looked at each other and smiled, and suddenly felt much closer to each other.

Back in the store, Cheng Zhen was also very relieved to know that his son's apprenticeship had been completed. He had been in the city for three days, and as soon as the matter was over, he decided to return. After all, he still has with him the money that more than 20 families in the village will use to live next, and he wants to return this money to others as soon as possible.

He glanced at Tang Zhong before leaving: "Tang Zhong, my son will be handed over to you, if he has any accidents, I will not rest with you." ”

Tang Zhong replied angrily: "Fart! My apprentice, I will naturally work hard and get out of here." ”

Cheng Zhen finally hugged his son and turned to leave.

......

On the other side, in a large mansion in the east of the city, a young woman sat on the bed, frowning slightly, and a distressed look appeared on her beautiful face. She is the concubine of Xinfeng County Lieutenant Xiao Yan three years ago - Wu Yan.

As a woman from a civilian background, being able to be favored by the county lieutenant and included in the house is lucky enough to make countless people like her go crazy with jealousy.

She is also very satisfied with her current life, although as a concubine, her status in the family is not high, she has to greet her husband's wife every hour, she cannot serve at the table when she eats, and she has to serve on the side, and so on...... But with her youth and beauty, she is still very favored by her husband, and Xiao Yan will probably not refuse some small requests made on weekdays.

But she knows very well that this kind of thing can't be done often, and everything must be done in a certain way. She is a very smart person, knowing that her husband will not accommodate herself unconditionally, and a wife can't, let alone a little concubine.

Wu Yan understands that serving people in Israel will not last long, she carefully manages the relationship between herself and her husband, if one day, she can give birth to a son and a half, and when she is old, she can also have a support, she has always been looking forward to this in her heart.

But today, her own sister came to her and cried to her that her nephew was bullied and almost beaten, and she had to pay 500 yuan to others, begging her to call the shots.

Of course she understood what her sister meant, this was for her to blow the pillow wind to her husband!

Wu Yan's heart is really a little crooked, her parents were absent when she was very young, and she has always been brought up by this sister, and she has deep feelings for her. But her sister is really not a discerning person, she only saw her sister marry into the county governor's family, so she really regarded the other party as a brother-in-law, and often trembled in front of the neighbors, and regarded herself as the county lieutenant's mother's family, and she didn't know how she trembled every day, like walking on thin ice.

Moreover, she couldn't understand her sister's character any better, saying that she was spicy was light, and saying that she was scathing and cruel, and loved money like life, and there must be something untrue about the life she told herself.

But her sister has begged to come to the door, what can she do, no matter what, that is also the closest person in the world.

It's just that in this way, the nephew is a little pity. Although Zhou Cai is unlearned and has no skills, he is at least smarter than his mother, and she wanted to beg Xiao Yan when he was older and arrange him into the county's government team, which is also a way out. Xiao Yan may be able to help his sister get angry for her sake, but he won't do something like this a second time!

As night fell, Xiao Yan returned home from a day's work and took a bath under the service of Wu Yan and the maid.

Tonight, he is going to stay in Wu Yan's room, among his several wives and concubines, Wu Yan is the most well-behaved and sensible, and has a good appearance, so he naturally wins his love. Xiao Yan soaked in the bathtub, and the hot water was scooped up and poured on him by Wu Yan and the maid from time to time, ironing it incomparably, dissipating the fatigue he had accumulated after a busy day.

Wu Yan looked at him gently, in her heart, her husband was her heaven, supporting everything in her life. Seeing Xiao Yan so tired, she was also extremely distressed in her heart. The maid who served together next to her saw the loving scene of the two of them, and her eyes couldn't help but show envy, and she didn't know when she would be favored by the master.

Xiao Yan saw the regret in Wu Yan's eyes, and patted her hand gently, his heart was very warm.

Although Wu Yan has been admitted to the house by him for three years, she has always loved him with all her heart as when she first got married, which can be clearly felt from the small details just now. Unlike his other concubines, after a long time, he focused on how to intrigue in the back house, which made him very annoying.

Knowing cold and hot, coupled with knowing the proportion and knowing the general situation, all these things together have made her undiminished love for Wu Yan.

After dinner, Xiao Yan didn't even go to the study, so he went straight to Wu Yan's room.

Wu Yan freshened up and dressed herself early and waited for her husband's arrival. After Xiao Yan entered the door, what he saw was a charming young woman with apricot eyes and peach cheeks, and spring in the corners of her eyes.

He didn't care about speaking, stepped forward and picked up Wu Yan and put him on the bed.

Wu Yan exclaimed, put his hands in front of him, and said to Xiao Yan: "Husband, don't worry, the concubine is the tea you brewed, and you haven't tasted it yet." ”

Of course, Xiao Yan wouldn't stop to drink any tea, he just took off his clothes together, and then pressed on Wu Yan.

For a time, the hibiscus tent was warm and full of spring.

......

For a long time, the clouds and rain began to stop.

Wu Yan lay on Xiao Yan's chest, his face full of spring color.

She took advantage of this moment to tell her husband about her sister coming to the house today to cry to her, and there were no twists and turns between her words. She knew very well that there was no point in this, Xiao Yan could see it at a glance, but it was better to say it honestly and let him judge for himself.

Of course, what she is talking about is a version that has been processed by Zhou Wu, which is very different from the truth. In her mouth, Fan Gang became a scoundrel who coveted Aunt Hu's money, while Zhou Cai turned into a righteous young man who saw injustice and acted righteously, and was bullied by Fan Gang together.

It's just that there is one less person in her words - Cheng Kun.

Zhou Cai guessed correctly, his mother didn't take his words to heart at all, so she didn't mention this "inconsequential little role" to her sister.

Xiao Yan lay on the bed, did not speak, his eyes narrowed slightly, as if his thoughts had drifted to the clouds. But Wu Yan knew that Xiao Yan had already listened to her words, and at this time, it was just out of habit and weighing the pros and cons.

After a while, Xiao Yan opened his eyes and said to Wu Yan: "I know about this matter, I will deal with it." In the future, you tell your sister not to run home without any trouble. ”

Wu Yan said in a low voice, looking a little aggrieved.

Xiao Yan was also a little distressed when he saw this, and comforted her again: "Okay, don't be angry, it's not good for your nephew to have nothing to do all day, I'll find an opportunity to arrange him to be a servant, isn't this what you want? ”

After hearing this, Wu Yan raised his head suddenly, his eyes opened wide, and there were faint tears flashing, and his eyes were full of emotion and surprise. She really didn't expect that Xiao Yan actually guessed her thoughts, and without waiting for her to speak, she took the initiative to agree.

Her husband was so attentive and considerate that at this moment, she decided that she was with the right person.

She silently said in her heart: Sister, what you asked me to do, I have already done. From now on, I will be wholeheartedly devoted to my husband, and I only hope that you can behave yourself.

Xiao Yan stretched out his hand and patted Wu Yan's buttocks, "If there is such a thing in the future, you will send it back directly, don't worry about it anymore." Remember, the only thing you have to do is to serve me well. ”

Wu Yan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and smiled, "Yes, husband, the concubine knows." Now, let the concubine serve her husband one more time. ”

Xiao Yan also narrowed his eyes and enjoyed the service of the concubine......

......

Early the next morning, Xiao Yan came to the office of the county government, sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and tasted it slowly.

He was holding his waist, feeling a little sore. Last night, he went crazy in bed for half the night, and he couldn't bear it.

Remembering what Wu Yan said in bed, he asked someone to call the head of the county government's official team.

Soon, the squad leader Teng Ji came to Xiao Yan, and after he bent down and saluted, he asked a little flatteringly: "The county lieutenant called me here, is there anything you want to order to do in the next place?"

Xiao Yan bowed slightly, "I heard that there are people in the county who are rampant and forcibly rob other people's money, is this true?"

Teng Ji was a little stunned for a while, what is the situation?

Xiao Yan asked him if there was such a thing, and the answer was, of course:

Yes!

Although Xinfeng County is not big, there are nearly 100,000 people, and there are all kinds of people. Robbing other people's money, such a thing happens almost every day, as long as you are not caught red-handed, the official will not care, because there is no way to control it!

Such a trivial matter is not worth the county governor's bother, but since he asked, he can't talk nonsense with his eyes open. He didn't care who Xiao Yan was referring to, he puffed and knelt on the ground: "Your Excellency, forgive me, this is indeed a matter of negligence, please punish your lord." ”

Xiao Yan snorted, "Okay, don't be so nervous, I know it's not your fault, but since the matter has happened, it has to be resolved." How to do it, you don't need me to teach you. ”

Teng Ji stood up and replied respectfully: "Your Excellency, please rest assured, I understand." ”
