After Cao An was full of wine and food, he separated from the others and walked towards Cao's Mansion in the east of the city by himself.

As he passed through a deep alley, a figure suddenly pounced. Although Cao An was drunk, he had not lost his basic sensitivity, and he heard a slight sound of wind in his ears, and secretly said "not good".

But before he could dodge, the figure was pressed in front of him, and then a fist slammed into his stomach, making him almost think his intestines were about to be broken.

Cao An knelt on the ground in pain, the whole person bowed into a shrimp shape, his face was red at first, then turned white, cold sweat rinsed down, and finally with a wow, he vomited out the things he had just eaten in his stomach intact.

After he finished vomiting, Cheng Kun walked over and carried him into the alley behind him.

Cao An thought that he was unlucky to meet a strongman who robbed the road this time. He was secretly ruthless in his heart, and when grandpa got out safely this time, he had to peel off the skin of your whole body.

He looked up in pain, only to see a face that was much younger than he had imagined. He couldn't be surprised, and recognized it very familiarly: "This brother, how much money do you want, say it, I'll give it." Presumably you should have inquired about my Cao An's personality before you robbed the Dao, and what you said must be counted, just ask you to spare my life. ”

Cheng Kun sneered, took out a sign with yellow letters on a black background and put it in front of his eyes: "Look at the dot with your eyes wide open, what is this?"

Cao An naturally read the text on the sign: "Dingshan Army Forward Battalion Sima, Cheng Kun!" He gasped, too frightened to speak, and couldn't understand how he could provoke such a character.

Cheng Kun asked him, "Yuan Qiao is in Cao's mansion, right?"

Cao An was stunned, his brain was about to smoke just now, and he racked his brains to think of several ways to get out, but he vetoed them one by one, because he didn't know why Cheng Kun was in trouble with him, but he didn't expect to hear Yuan Qiao's name from Cheng Kun's mouth.

Cheng Kun saw that he was stunned and didn't speak, he grabbed his neck and punched him in the stomach, Cheng Kun didn't use much strength, but the force was solid and transparent, and it hit him with the most dense pain nerves accurately, making his pain magnified exponentially.

Cao An was punched again, rolled his eyes, and almost fainted, and after finally relieving himself, he suddenly understood that although the person in front of him looked very young, he was really ruthless, and if he couldn't satisfy him today, it was very likely that he would be beaten to death.

After he learned to be obedient, he immediately replied: "Yes, Yuan Qiao was sold to the Cao Mansion eight years ago, and now he works under the eldest lady. ”

Cheng Kun continued to ask, "Who is the eldest lady?"

Cao An replied honestly: "The eldest lady's surname is Yu, her name is Hanlan, she is the wife of the master, and she is jealous by nature. Because she was dissatisfied with the master's desire to take Yuan Qiao as a concubine, she found an excuse to arrange her to her side a few days ago. ”

He could see that Cheng Kun would take the initiative to lead the topic to Yuan Qiao because of Yuan Qiao's girl.

Cheng Kun breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that although Yuan Qiao's life is not good now, her innocence should still be there, so that it will not affect her marriage in the future. This time, he is going to make trouble in this Cao Mansion and take his sister out for the dead Yuan Liang.

Cheng Kun shouted coldly at Cao An: "You listen to me, I am the commander of Yuan Qiao's dead brother in the Dingshan Army, this time I went to Anci County to take Yuan Qiao out, you can tell the head of the Cao family what I mean after you go back." Don't worry, I'll still pay for the deed. ”

In these years, buying a girl only needs hardware at most, even if Yuan Qiao looks handsome, it is more than enough to buy her deed of sale back with twenty gold. Cheng Kun had just been rewarded with fifty gold by the emperor, and he hadn't spent much yet, so he could still get this money.

Cao An suddenly realized, it turned out that the person in front of him was the "fool" he was talking about during the meal, but he didn't expect that he not only sent money to Yuan Qiao, but also came to the door in person, but didn't he hear Yuan Qiao say that his dead brother's chief was a tun chief, why was this evil star in front of him a military horse?

Thinking that he had embezzled a lot of Yuan Qiao's brother's life money and pension, the cold sweat on his forehead was even worse, and he hurriedly said to Cheng Kun: "I already understand what my lord means, I'll go back and tell the master." ”

Cheng Kun let go of the hand that was grabbing his neck and scolded: "Get out!"

Cao An ran out with a crawl, returned to the door of Cao's mansion, and knocked on the knocker of the door desperately, the porter Cao Zhi opened the door and saw that it was Cao An, and immediately scolded: "Do you want to eat the board because of the itching of your buttocks, why are you knocking on the door so vigorously, it disturbs the lord and the lady and you have to suffer." ”

Cao An didn't care about arguing, but said to him: "Don't worry about this for now, I'm going to rush to see the master, something is wrong, and I'm in trouble." ”

A slightly hoarse and very majestic voice came from the inner courtyard: "What are you panicking, who dares to come to my Cao family's trouble." ”

He turned his head to see that the person who spoke was Cao Jingwu, the head of the Cao family, and he was now frowning and looking at Cao An, with anger hidden on his face.

Cao An didn't know that Cao Jingwu had just snatched back a charming and moving little lady from the county town two days ago, and he was on the rise in the past two days. He just wanted to prostitute himself during the day, but as soon as he took off his pants, Cao An's huge knock on the door came, and he was almost made to wilt in shock, how could he not make him angry.

After Cao An saw the master, he immediately stepped forward and told him Cheng Kun's words in Cao Jingwu's ear, Cao Jingwu was also a little surprised when he heard it, this is indeed a very tricky trouble.

He immediately called Yuan Qiao over.

Yuan Qiao was washing clothes for the people in the house in the room, and on a cold day, she reached into the cold water with a pair of green jade hands and soaked it for most of the day, and her finger joints were already frozen and swollen, and it was very difficult to clench her fists. But no one would speak for her and intercede, for this was the punishment of the eldest lady. Yuan Qiao could only endure it alone.

But she can still endure the physical pain, and the inner pain is extremely difficult.

After the news of her brother's death came, Yuan Qiao felt that her sky seemed to have collapsed, although the world was big, she was left alone struggling to survive, and no one would care about her from the bottom of her heart. She once wanted to die, but in the end she survived, but she also lost hope in life, and life was like a puppet.

After being brought to Cao Jingwu, Yuan Qiao was still confused and didn't understand what was going on.

Cao Jingwu looked at the little girl in front of him who had just reached fourteen years old, and a trace of greed flashed in his eyes.

Although Yuan Qiao was wearing clothes made of the cheapest coarse linen, he still couldn't hide the youthful beauty of the young girl, not to mention the delicate skin, and the two hills on his chest began to bulge. If it weren't for his wife's obstruction, he would have received this little girl into the room a long time ago, where would he give Cheng Kun of the Dingshan Army a chance to ask for it.

He asked Yuan Qiao with a pleasant face: "Has your dead brother ever told you about the matter in his military camp?"

When Yuan Qiao heard her brother, her eyes turned red again, she endured her grief and shook her head, saying that she had never heard her brother talk about it. Yuan Liang didn't know many words, he had to find someone to help when he wrote letters, and he hadn't been in the army for a long time, so naturally he didn't send any letters back to his sister.

Cao Jingwu could see that Yuan Qiao's expression didn't look like he was lying, his eyebrows furrowed, he just wanted her to go down, and he would find someone to discuss countermeasures, he didn't want to let Yuan Qiao go.

But the eldest lady Yu Hanlan rushed over when she heard the sound, and saw Yuan Qiao standing under the hall with tears in her eyes, thinking that her husband wanted to accept this girl into the room again, and suddenly became angry: "You old bastard, it's not enough to find so many small ones, and now you have reached out to your own house, with me, don't even think about it." ”

When Cao Jingwu saw his wife coming, he felt that his head was bigger, and he hurriedly explained: "Madam misunderstood me, where do I want to take a concubine, but a military Sima from the Dingshan Army came and asked me to hand over Yuan Qiao by name, maybe people will come to the door after a while." ”

"Is it true?" The eldest lady was a little unconvinced, she looked at Yuan Qiao's face, and found that this little girl was also confused and couldn't figure out the situation.

At this moment, a clear and powerful voice came from outside the gate: "The head of the Cao family can ask to see Sima Chengkun of the Dingshan Army in the mansion." The voice spread throughout this mansion, and the knowledgeable martial artist showed a shocked look on his face, and the inner family cultivation shown in this voice was eight streets stronger than them.

Cao Jingwu's face sank, he just dealt with his wife with words, who would have thought that Cheng Kun would really come to the door, the hand he showed was clearly a demonstration, and it was obvious that the person who came was not good.

The eldest lady's face is also a little unsightly, her dispute with her husband belongs to the "internal contradiction of the people", and Cheng Kun came to the door because of the "contradiction between the enemy and me", and she can still distinguish the priority and the secondary.

Unable to worry about being angry with her husband, she first glared at Yuan Qiao, who was standing aside, and said, "I'll clean you up when I go back." ”

Then he didn't wait for Cao Jingwu to order, he directly called the family members in the house and the martial artists who were raised, standing behind the door, the family members were holding a wooden stick thick as a duck's egg in their hands, and the two martial artists each held a knife in their hands, and made up their minds that if Cheng Kun would break in, he would directly beat him out with a stick.

After arranging, she raised her voice and said to the door: "The master is not in the mansion now, let's talk about it tomorrow." ”

The voice outside the door was silent for a while, and then came in again: "It's Mrs. Yu who spoke, why should Mrs. bother me, I have already heard the dispute between you and the head of the Cao family just now." ”

Although he was standing outside the door, separated by a heavy gate, the distance between him and Cao Jingwu was only about forty steps, and someone could not escape his ears at such a short distance.

Yu Hanlan didn't expect to be so deaf and clear-sighted, she was exposed to her face just now when she lied, her face turned red for a while, she simply stopped being polite, and said directly: "Anyway, guests are not welcome to visit the mansion today, so you better come back another day." ”

She planned very well, the longer the time dragged on, the more beneficial it would be for them, the Cao family belonged to the head snake in Anci County, and the power was very large, and it was impossible for Cheng Kun to stay here for too long, it could be delayed today, and there would be no problem with delaying it for a few more days, and after a long time, the problem would naturally be solved, and there was no need to have a head-on conflict with Cheng Kun.

But no matter how good her abacus is, it is useless, Cheng Kun does not act according to the script she wrote at all, he said in a deep voice outside the door: "Since this is the case, then don't blame Cheng for offending." ”

Yu Hanlan's face changed when she heard this, and she shouted sharply: "The door is blocked." ”

A cadre of the family immediately stepped forward against the gate, but after two breaths, there was an unstoppable force like a surging flood outside the gate, only to hear a loud "bang", the door made of solid iron pear wood was kicked open, a group of family members were smashed by the flying gate, lying on the ground and moaning.

Outside the door, Cheng Kun dusted off his robe and walked in calmly.
