Chapter 25 East Street is the neighbor, and West Street is the residence
The ordinary day began like this, and the three of them sat together after breakfast to discuss what to do in the future.
Such a discussion is very novel for Leng Xuanrong, because she has almost never shared her thoughts and ideas with anyone in her previous life or this life. However, it seems that Brother Yan Liang and his father are very used to it.
What the two of them know is actually of little value to Leng Xuanrong, but it is still very important for Leng Xuanrong to know their thoughts.
He has told Leng Chengqi what happened to Zeng Yanliang in detail. The two of them can sit together to discuss things, mainly because Leng Chengqi has recovered well both physically and mentally recently. What he said now is no different from what he said when he was a waiter. Especially when it comes to the way of doing things in the officialdom, even Leng Xuanrong is not very clear about what he said.
"The imperial court must attach great importance to the robbery of officials and silver. The responsibility of the superiors and subordinates is to press down from the first level. And as the factional struggle in today's court is serious, although they all obey the toughest forces on the surface, this is not the case secretly. This is like a clear river. Although it is very calm on the surface, the undercurrent below is always very turbulent.
Leng Chengqi said in a low voice, "In my opinion, in recent years, the young master has also grown up, and now the court should be divided into two largest forces. Now it's time for the two forces to fight to the death. Either you die or he dies. I'm afraid that this official silver was robbed because of this fierce fight.
Zeng Yanliang frowned and listened to Leng Chengqi's words. He was just a small governmentman. He not only didn't know what the imperial court and the world's major events, but also never thought that he would one day be involved in such a serious matter. Now he really feels happy, not because he can escape from death, but because a small person like him can have the opportunity to hear a well-known talented and four-class waiter tell him so many truths about being an official.
If these things hadn't happened, if he hadn't been rescued by Leng Xuanrong, he would have never had this opportunity in his life.
And Leng Xuanrong on the other side was also surprised. In her previous life, she didn't have many opportunities to hear from her father about things in officialdom. Because before the accident, her impression of her father was basically only fascinated by those things such as pen, ink, paper, inkstone, ancient scrolls, calligraphy and paintings. Although he was an official in the court, in fact, as a literati, she felt more vivid. After the accident, his father was hit very hard, so he couldn't leave anything to Leng Xuanrong until his death.
Leng Xuanrong sighed in his heart that his father was worthy of being a talented man who had been an official for many years. Although he had not experienced these things and did not know the truth behind it, he had been made sense just by listening to his current analysis. Leng Xuanrong even felt that as long as he was a little broken now, his father could figure out what was going on.
But on this point, Leng Xuanrong can't say anything now.
Leng Xuanrong silently warned herself that now she should be careful in everything she does. God has given her such a chance to start over, and she must not do anything wrong. What will happen in the future is now changing with the changes she has made. Now even if she tells the result, it just makes them more annoyed.
can't be said, absolutely can't be said, at least wait until the most appropriate time, maybe by then everything will become taken for granted.
"Now the heaviest shackles are on the county magistrate Liang Qiurong. He is now a pawn. If he can't do it well, he will become the first abandoned pawn in this matter." When Leng Chengqi said this, he continued to whisper thoughtfully, "As the saying goes, the bell must be tied. If you want to clear the grievances of those dead government brothers, the most normal way is to let Liang Qiurong publish the list... But I think he will never publish this list. Posting this list will only make him more passive, and even if he publish the list, it will not be good for Yan Liang..."
Zeng Yanliang heard this and hurriedly asked, "Why?"
Leng Chengqi sighed and said, "Even if Liang Qiurong posted a list saying that your government officials had nothing to do with the robbery of officials and silver, but after all, you are the only person alive at the scene of the crime at that time. Even if Liang Qiurong doesn't arrest you, there must be a lot of people who want to arrest you. Yan Liang, you should remember that these people in the officialdom are not just talking about things, but doing nothing. Even if you have nothing, they can make waves with your existence. They are fighting between them, not for the truth.
This word fell into Leng Xuanrong's ears, and she was extremely agreeable. The ugly scenes I saw in my previous life are still vivid, and their words and deeds are exactly the same as what my father said.
And Zeng Yanliang couldn't help nodding when he heard this. He also sighed and said to Leng Chengqi, "Uncle, it seems that I can't get out of this matter... Alas, in fact, I have no father or mother, and even if I die, it's not a big deal... Just..." With that, Zeng Yanliang looked at Leng Xuanrong and lowered his head and whispered, "If there was a way... ”
Leng Chengqi also took a look at Leng Xuanrong. He patted Zeng Yanliang's hand and comforted him, "The world is difficult and dangerous, with ups and downs. Look at my uncle. To be honest, I have long felt that I have nothing to fall in love with, but Xuanrong has done so many things to save my useless father. If I don't cheer up, I will be sorry for her. So, Yan Liang, you are with our father and daughter. Let's find a way to overcome these difficulties together!"
Although what Leng Chengqi said was just some comforting words, Zeng Yanliang heard it, but it was extremely useful. He knew that the hardest person now was Leng Xuanrong, but Leng Xuanrong had never complained to the two of them. Instead, she thought about the future carefully every day and carefully did what she expected every day. Although such Leng Xuanrong looked a little strange and terrible, she came back to her senses every time. Come on, he always shows a soft smile at Zeng Yanliang.
Zeng Yanliang also knew that it was all this that forced Leng Xuanrong to calculate and have to do things that should not have been done by her.
He felt that what Leng Chengqi said was reasonable. If their two men could not save themselves and could not find a way to get rid of these haze, then the saddest and most miserable at that time must be Leng Xuanrong.
Zeng Yanliang absolutely doesn't want to see Leng Xuanrong cry...
When the two were making breakfast this morning, Zeng Yanliang saw that Leng Xuanrong's eyes seemed to be much red and swollen. Since he lived in this old house, he has found that Leng Xuanrong often seems to secretly hide in the house late at night and cry. Several mornings, she came out with red eyes. But as long as Zeng Yanliang asked, she would only say that she didn't sleep well.
Every time he saw Leng Xuanrong with red eyes, Zeng Yanliang was extremely distressed and wanted to comfort her, but he couldn't speak.
What did you say?
Now that you think about it, it's better to find a way to solve your own problems first, and then openly find a matchmaker. The three media hired six or eight sedan chairs to marry Leng Xuanrong into the door, and no longer let her hide and cry alone in the future.
Thinking of this, Zeng Yan's conscience seemed to ignite a fire, and her fighting spirit suddenly increased.
The three of you talked about what had happened in the past few days. At this time, a sharp roar suddenly came from outside the door, followed by a rapid knock on the door.
"Open the door! Is this where the father and daughter of the Leng family live?
Zeng Yanliang and Leng Chengqi couldn't help frowning after hearing the sound, while Leng Xuanrong suddenly jumped up from the seat and read, "Here it comes!"
She didn't care about Zeng Yanliang and Leng Chengqi, who were full of surprise, quickly ran to the door and looked out.
The one standing at the door was the mainland media woman she met on the street yesterday.
There were a few flowers on her head, and the smell of powder was pungent through a door. With an impatient face, she kept shaking off the silk scarf in her hand. After waiting for a while, she raised her foot and kicked the door twice.
"Is there anyone who can breathe! Come out and answer the door!"
Leng Xuanrong looked at it for a long time and made sure that the mainland media woman was the only one outside the door before she took a breath.
But when she was just a little relieved, she only heard the sound of drum music in the distance, and the mainland matchmaker frowned and shouted, "Ouch! You brainless people, what I just said to you! Stop it all! Stop it! If it's lively, don't you have to wait for someone to come out!"
Before the words fell, the cold sweat behind Leng Xuanrong had flowed down.
She stumbled back to the house. Zeng Yanliang stepped forward to help her and asked, "What's going on?"
Leng Xuanrong didn't have time to answer, and she tried her best to figure it out.
The ground matchmaker's knock on the door became more and more rapid, and Leng Xuanrong's brain turned faster and faster.
Suddenly, she grabbed Zeng Yanliang's sleeve and said in a low voice, "Brother Yan Liang, no matter what happens, you can't come out for a while. Hide, hurry up! Hide! You promised me that you can't come out anyway!"
Zeng Yanliang was scared by her and was at a loss. Before he nodded, Leng Xuanrong couldn't wait to push him into Leng Chengqi's room.
When he went in, Leng Xuanrong quickly ran to Leng Chengqi and said in a low voice, "Father, no matter what happens later, don't stand forward. Don't be afraid, don't worry. If you find the opportunity, you should find a way to get out. After getting out, father, you must remember clearly and go to Lijia gambling house quickly!"
