Chapter 45 The ** Rhyme on the Qinhuai River (13)
Besides, Uncle Qi rushed home angrily, and secretly thought: 'You camel who doesn't know the height of the sky, dare to compete with Uncle Ben to be rich, it's really beyond your strength. When he returned home, his house was a large courtyard, with lotus ponds, gardens, rockeries, and pavilions. He rushed through the courtyard door towards the bedroom, and met his wife, who said, 'Sir, didn't you go to find the red rose?' Why did you come back so soon, is it that the red rose's business is too busy. Uncle Qi said as he walked: "You don't bother me, I'm going to buy her home today to see who will fight with Uncle Ben." After speaking, he walked into the bedroom, the light was already on in the bedroom, Uncle Qi pushed open the wardrobe to reveal a secret door, walked into the secret door with an oil lamp, opened a box inside, he took a stack of silver tickets and counted 26,000 taels of silver, and walked out of the dark room with a look in his arms. Madame looked angry and didn't say anything, because it was useless to say. Uncle Qi called two servants to follow him to Yihong Courtyard. Uncle Qi hurriedly walked out of the Qi family's compound with two servants and came to the street, and was walking when he suddenly collided with others.
Uncle Qi scolded: "Bastard, you don't have long eyes." The man hurriedly said sorry, and ran away without looking back, although there was moonlight, he didn't see what the man was. The two servants hurriedly came up and asked, 'Is the master okay?' Uncle Qi said, "It's okay, let's go quickly, lest the camel say that we don't dare to come." After saying that, he went straight to Yihong Courtyard.
Uncle Qi walked into the hall of Yihong Courtyard with his two servants strutting his head, walked to a table and sat down and said loudly: "Sister Hong, where did the camel go, did you scare it away?" Sister Hong smiled and said, "No." Uncle Long was talking to Miss Rose. I'll go and call him. Sister Hong walked to the top of the stairs and shouted upstairs, "Uncle Long." Uncle Qi has already brought the silver, come down quickly. ’
After a while, Zhang Lingyu hugged the red rose in his left hand and Yun Xiang in his right hand, walked downstairs with his head hunched back, walked to the table and sat down with the red rose in his arms, and Yun Xiang stood behind him. Zhang Lingyu smiled and said, "Uncle Qi, how much silver do you want to give now." Uncle Qi hahadaxiao said: "Uncle Ben is not more than eight thousand taels." Now out of ten thousand taels. At this time, Tong Yunfei walked in and said: "Uncle Qi's family is rich, who dares to compare money with Uncle Qi, I said that this Uncle Long will definitely lose home." After speaking, he gave Zhang Lingyu a look, and Zhang Lingyu blinked his eyes and understood it.
Zhang Lingyu said with a smile: "No matter how much silver you have to give out, it will only count if you show it to everyone." It's useless to talk nonsense there. Uncle Qi said loudly: "What Uncle Ben has is silver." After speaking, he stretched out his hand and took out a stack of silver tickets from his bosom and threw them on the table, and said, "Uncle Ben, this is 26,000 taels of silver, and I will give 10,000 taels now." Zhang Lingyu said with a smile: "Sister Hong, you should go and check whether those silver tickets are real or fake, and don't get chicken and eggs when the time comes." Sister Hong walked up and said, "Uncle Qi, you count 10,000 taels for me first." Uncle Qi picked up the silver ticket and counted it, and suddenly exclaimed: "How can this be." Impossible. His face was blue for a while, and he was speechless.
The old bustard stretched out his head and looked at it and said in surprise: "Uncle Qi, how can you use white paper to fool Sister Hong and me." If you don't have money, don't pretend to be an uncle. Uncle Qi hurriedly said: "I obviously took a silver ticket, why did it become a blank slate." Sister Hong hurriedly said: "I haven't touched your silver ticket, whether you are a paper or a silver ticket is none of my business." Uncle Qi said: "I don't blame you, I'll go back and get it." Zhang Lingyu threw the sword on the table and said angrily: "You are looking at the uncle, I am a bully, if you really annoy the uncle, I will let you taste the taste of the sword." Uncle Qi felt that tonight's incident was very strange, and secretly thought: "This Uncle Long seems to be an outlaw in the rivers and lakes, so it's better to hide." Thinking of this, he said: "Uncle Ben won't spend 10,000 taels of silver for two bitches, I have 10,000 taels of silver, I don't know how many yellow flower girls to buy." ’
Zhang Lingyu walked up and grabbed Uncle Qi's chest shirt, lifted it up vigorously, and scolded: "You bastard, you have nothing to mess around, delay Uncle Ben's good time, I think you just owe a beating." After saying that, he slapped him twice in the face, his eyes were full of stars, and the hand that grabbed his shirt pushed again, Uncle Qi fell to the ground and turned over a few times to the door of the hall. Thinking of this, he slipped away without looking back.
Zhang Lingyu said: "Sister Hong, you can hand over the deed of sale to me." Sister Hong smiled and said, "Of course, I'll go get it." After speaking, he hurriedly walked back to the room, and after a while, he took the deed of sale of the red rose and Yunxiang and handed it to Zhang Lingyu, and said with a smile: "Uncle Long, you can take this person away, and you will be their master in the future." Zhang Lingyu said: "From now on, Red Rose and Yunxiang are no longer anyone's slaves, they are their own, if someone bullies her again, my sword will not agree." After speaking, he made the two deeds of sale into a ball, twisted them in his hand a few times, turned them into confetti, scattered them on the ground and said with a smile: "Rose girl, Yunxiang, let's go." After speaking, he hugged her and walked towards the gate, everyone was talking, some people said that the life of Red Rose and Yunxiang really met a nobleman, and some people said that her two lives were really bitter, out of the wolf's den and into the mouth of the tiger, you look at the virtue of the camel, look at it are annoying, but Red Rose and Yunxiang girl have to face him every day, I think it is really a sin. But the old bustard was smiling, so she didn't care about their sins and blessings, and continued to solicit her business.
Zhang Lingyu, Red Rose, and Yun Xiang walked out of Yihong Courtyard and came to the street and let go of their hands, Zhang Lingyu said as she walked: "Rose girl, I want to ask someone to send you two to Yunxiang's hometown Xuzhou, Yunxiang, what do you think." Yun Xiang said: "That's great, I really don't know how to thank you for your great kindness, and when I get home, I will ask my father to return the silver to you." Zhang Linyu said: "Miss Yunxiang, you don't have to think about paying back the silver, as long as your whole family can be good to the red roses when you get home." Yun Xiangda: "Uncle Long, don't worry, I will never forget my kindness to Sister Rose." ’
Zhang Lingyu took Red Rose and Yunxiang to the Fengwei Dart Bureau on Longxing Street, and asked the Fengwei Dart Bureau to send her to Yunxiang's hometown in Xuzhou.
Zhang Lingyu walked on the street, and Tong Yunfei quickly followed and said with a smile: "Big brother, this silver ticket will be given to you." Zhang Lingyu said: "Then you don't have to, just give me 10,000 taels, and you can spend the rest slowly." Tong Yunfei said with a smile: "I have never done such a big deal, and it is different from my eldest brother." Zhang Lingyu said with a smile: "That's what you did with your own ability, so what do I do." The two chatted while walking, divided the silver, and went straight to the courtyard of the Liu family, and walked through the house with light skills.
After breakfast the next day, Liu Qingyang and Tong Yuxiu also came to the courtyard, and everyone was sitting and chatting about how to redeem the red roses last night, and how to rectify the rich man Qi, when a family member came in and said: "Eldest son, there is a girl outside the door who said that she wants to find Zhang Gongzi." Liu Qingyang said: "Since you are here to find Brother Zhang, go and invite her in." The family Ding walked out in response, and Tong Yunfei smiled and said, "Big brother, guess what kind of girl she is." Hong Xia said: "Brother Yu doesn't need to guess who it is, I think it must be Miss Chang." Tong Yuxiu said: "Miss Hong, who is Miss Chang you are talking about, she is a new friend you know." Hong Xia said: "It's Brother Yu's confidante." ’
As they were talking, the servant led a tall and slender girl, wearing a red dress, and walked straight to Zhang Lingyu with a smile on her face. When he got closer, he smiled and said, "The slave and maid have said goodbye to the son." Zhang Lingyu said with a smile: "Miss Chang doesn't have to be so polite, we will often be together in the future, and it will be very troublesome to always see each other." Zhang Lingyu paused and said, "Miss Chang doesn't need to be introduced, just introduce you." So I introduced Liu Qingyang, Tong Yuxiu, Hong Feng, Hong Xia, Tong Yunfei, and Ma Junlan one by one.
