Chapter 18 Blackmail 4
Back to the yard, Li Xiaozu came up as soon as he entered the door and said with concern, "Didn't you lose your temper?"
"No, she doesn't have time to lose her temper with me!" Zhou was in a good mood, and Li Xiaozu breathed a sigh of relief. The two had dinner, packed up and lay down. Zhou put his feet in Li Xiaozu's arms and asked him to rub them, and said with a smile about what happened in today's conference hall: "...Isn't the fifth sister awesome? One sentence blocked the second wife back. You said that a sacrifice around her can actually be worth a lot of money. In the future," Zhou's voice was soft and soft: "Oh, look, if there is a girl, I'm afraid I can't even afford to hire a piano teacher. In this way, my mother still asks me to take the dowry silver all day long. Make up for the family."
Li Xiaozu paused, and his face flashed with a trace of embarrassment. Zhou moved his feet and hung his hands around his neck and said softly, "It's not that I'm reluctant to patch the house with silver. Silver is nothing, but we are not the only one in this house. Who will put this silver patched out? Won't you be sad when we have children and can't even afford to learn a piano? Although this family is surnamed Li, they are also estranged from each other. Look at me, you are the only one in my heart, and you are only the best for me. No matter what others say, anyway, I have to keep this money for you and the children, and I only have you in my heart!"
Li Xiaozu nodded gratefully and looked at his wife's face and said, "I will rub your feet every day in the future."
"Hmm!" Zhou answered charmingly from his nose, moved on Li Xiaozu, pulled his ear with one hand and pulled it around and said coquettishly, "Dalang, you see, the family is like this. We have to do something for your mother, otherwise, what can we do in the future? Don't you think so?
"You're right. We have to plan for your mother, but we..." Li Xiaozu reached out and hugged his daughter-in-law's soft waist and kissed his daughter-in-law's face.
"Why don't we do some business?" Zhou interrupted Li Xiaozu's words and suggested with enthusiasm. Li Xiaozu was stunned: "It's... I'm afraid that I can't do it. If you follow me, I feel wronged by you. I don't have the ability, you see..." Li Xiaozu looked at his daughter-in distressedly.
"Talk nonsense!" Zhou quickly kissed Li Xiaozu's lips, stretched out her legs and wrapped them around his legs, and said softly, "You're the best. You're so good to me, and you're the best in the world!" Li Xiaozu blushed with a giggle.
"Who was born? I've been thinking about this all afternoon. My sister-in-law's third brother is working as a job in the building store. I heard that renting a house outside makes a lot of money. Why don't we look for him and learn from him..." Zhou Shi supported one arm, pressed his chest on Li Xiaozu's body, pressed Li Xiaozu's lips with the other hand, and turned around thoughtfully: "Well, we Don't hide it from your mother. You can discuss with her. The family must have some money to make a living, right? It's the best business to rent a house. Even if you don't make money, where is the house? Let your mother take some capital and earn money next year, which will also save your mother so hard work and saving. When you get started the business, you can do some of our own small business, don't you think?
Zhou's small abacus is jingling. This year, I will practice with my mother's money first. Next year, I will start my own small business. Li Xiaozu can't turn around so many corners and nodded repeatedly, "You are so good. I know you are the best. I will never live up to you in my life. I will only be good to you."
"I'm your daughter-in-law. You are so kind to me, I'm all for you." Zhou giggling, wrapped his arms around Li Xiaozu's neck close to him, and said with a vague smile, "Dalang, your son said... You have to be gentle..."
"Good Lan'er, don't worry, I'll listen to you. You let me in... I'll just get in..." Li Xiaozu exhaled heavily and turned over and pressed on Zhou's body. After a while, the two rolled naked and enthusiastically. Zhou's delicate gasp mixed with Li Xiaozu's painful and muffled, adding an ambiguous and light Serenade to the winter night.
In the heavy snow, seeing that they were about to enter the twelfth lunar month, the troubles in the capital suddenly increased their worries. Rong'antang applied medicine to compensate the shop, which was really stuffy, but a few days later, the Song family's medicine shop at the entrance of the east gate of the temple was also carried by a coffin and blocked the door with a soul prayer flag, saying that the Song family's medicine shop was all fake drugs. They killed people and entered the door. Without saying a word, he smashed it and went to the government office to fight a lawsuit without losing money.
Within waiting for the government officials to come, four or five pharmacies on Sidongmen Street were so scared that they closed the shop under the door. The rest of the medicine shop got the letter. Even if they didn't close the door, they quickly collected the medicine stall. It's okay if they don't apply this medicine.
I didn't wait for the shopkeeper to come back from watching the bustle, and the blackmail also blocked the door. First, the Sun Haoshou steamed bread shop in Qiaoxi was smashed by two beds of screaming patients, saying that he fell ill after eating his steamed bread. He must have had bad noodles and bad meat in his family, blocked the door to pay for the shop, and then the fragrant medicine shop and rouge. The fat pollen shop, even the boot shop, was coerced, and he broke his leg after wearing the boots he bought at his house!
Flowers of blackmail are blooming everywhere in the capital!
In two or three days, even the porridge shed of the rich and noble eunuchs of all over the world has been splashed one after another. A group of undressed, pale or pale or old or disabled beggets are sitting full of porridge sheds, knocking on the bowls and beating the racket, crying and screaming like singing a little song: "Poisoning people to death ! Dirty heart, rotten lungs and false compassion. Come and see, it's poisoned! Take the hairy moldy rice and fake kindness, poison people to death!"
The government is full of taking medicine, eating snacks, wearing clothes, shoes, etc., and so on., they are sick, breaking their legs to pay for silver, and the shop. In a few days, there are more than half of the people piled up, and the inside and outside of the government is full of tear pain, half-dead, and knife-like 'victims. The Beijing government has never been so lively!
This is a rogue situation. Not to mention decades, I haven't seen it once in hundreds of years. The whole capital is chaotic but lively, and there are crowds of people watching the bustle.
Mrs. Xu received the report that the porridge shed of Qingjianghou Mansion had been blackmailed. She was not stunned. She also heard that almost every family of the porridge shed had been blackmailed and laughed out. While laughing, she asked the situation of the porridge shed and various shops about the shops being blackmailed. She sent the mother-in-law away, breathed a long sigh of relief and giggled again. This is the best, big guy. Let's have a taste of being blackmailed!
Princes Jiang Jun got the letter and couldn't recover for a long time. She quickly sent several groups of people to inquire about it. She listened carefully and took a long breath. Even if the girl had this plan, where could she find these many scoundrels? Did someone help her in the back? Or...is it really a coincidence?
Guo Tuiguan kept running around and running all over the city to suppress the fire. He was only busy with a hoarse voice. His eyes were all red, but he was energetic and happy. On the one hand, he got rid of this disaster. On the other hand, on the other hand, he saw that Ji was going to have bad luck. It makes people feel happy. Guo Tuiguan was in a hurry to return in the middle of the night for several days. As soon as he got off the horse in the second gate, Mr. Hong, a staff member, came up and arched his hand and smiled, "Dong Weng, thank you for your hard work."
"I'm so tired! The prison is full, and even the government room is full of people. How about it? What's your message today?" Guo Tuiguan was almost speechless. He threw the reins to the little man. Luo circled his legs and shook his sore arms. As he walked in, Mr. Hong laughed and said, "I heard that this is all about it at today's court meeting. The folds that impeached our government office said that there were several large bamboo baskets, and even the famous governor After being impeached, the official was furious and scolded the old man bloody on the spot.
"What's wrong with Uncle Guan? Oh!" Guo Tuikan didn't finish his words and realized that although the position of the governor of the capital was a false name, although the eldest prince Qin Yan was a false name, he was also responsible for the position of the governor of the capital. He scolded him as if he had said: "His governor is a name and doesn't care about anything, scolding him... There is no reckless disaster." Guo Push official shook his head.
"The old man was scolded and came to our government office to take charge of official duties," Mr. Hong continued meaningfully, "How can I know that it is not a blessing? Ji Fuyin's plea has also been issued today. I heard that the officials have approved the eight words 'corpse vegetarian meal, stupid as a deer'."
"Grandpa has come to the director of the government?" Guo Tuikan** realized something. Mr. Hong looked around and pushed Guo Tuikan into the room. Then he whispered, "I came early in the morning. I didn't leave until it was dark. When I entered the door, I was serious. I cleared the case and investigated the unjust prison. Qiao Ba's matter of hitting the board and pressing the money has also been poked out. I have been imprisoned, and... Mr. Hong lowered his ear and said softly. Guo Tuiguan listened and stared roundly for a long time. Suddenly, he took a long breath and stamped his foot and shouted, "Why don't you send someone to tell me quickly? This is all..."
"Dong Weng!" Mr. Hong raised his voice slightly and interrupted Guo's complaint: "Calm down." Guo Tuiguan took another breath, raised his hand and pressed it down several times, took a deep breath and nodded, "Okay, quiet, say it quickly!"
"As soon as the old man entered the government, he first praised Dongweng and said that he saw what Dongweng had done in the past few days. He was a really solid person. What he did was not to please Shangfeng, and he was purely focusing on the people of the society. Dongweng, listen, is there anything better than this?"
Guo Tuiguan's eyebrows moved excitedly. Mr. Hong couldn't help laughing and said, "I haven't let anyone tell Dongweng that Dongweng's temper can't hide his mind. If you listen to the uncle's words, I'm afraid you will be uncomfortable. It's better not to know and act according to your heart. Dongweng is originally honest for the people."
"That's it!" Guo Tuikan laughed, stretched out his hand and patted Mr. Hong again and said, "Ji's blood is unlucky, and I'm getting a big win! Hahaha, it's refreshing!"
"Ji Fuyin is useless this time," Mr. Hong sighed sympathetically: "At least he was born as a scholar in two lists. After getting the eight-character comment of the official family, it is difficult to have the opportunity to become an official in his life. It's a pity to get to the third grade! The one in the Duke of Wen's mansion is really a disaster!"
"How can you blame others?" Guo Tuikan stared and said, "The Duke of Wen is disgusting. He followed him to the table. Who can be blamed? You deserve it!"
"Tomorrow, Dongweng will have to meet the uncle. After meeting, we have to discuss it carefully."
"Well, there is one thing. Give me an idea. I have an appointment to find out where this thread is these days. Do you want to tell the uncle about this?"
