74. Cong Liang Ji of Nanfeng Pavilion (10)(1/3)
The top scholar, with black hair in red robe, riding high on a big red horse, and his figure was heroic.
But at this moment, his hand tightly grasped the reins, and even the blue veins on his head were bulging out. The slave who was still shouting saw the patterns under the blue and white porcelain vase with his own eyes. He was also stunned and turned his head in surprise to look at his master. After a look, he suddenly made up his mind to splash this basin of dirty water back. Such a great life must not be destroyed in the hands of these people who came out of nowhere!
"We bought it," he straightened his spine and shouted, "How do you know who the original owner is!"
Kou Qiu put his hands in his sleeves and laughed softly.
"Buy it," he said slowly, "How dare you ask the top scholar, which store did you get from and where did you get the money?"
Chen Hanxiu said nothing, as if he had solidified into a statue made of stone. He pursed his lips, and his eyes did not look at Kou Qiu again, but just raised his gaze silently and fell into the distance.
"It's me."
Kou Qiu still looked at him and said word by word: "It was me who started working as a choreographer in Nanfeng Pavilion since I was twelve years old, for you-"
"Boss Liu!"
The top scholar suddenly cut off his words, and the original calm could no longer be maintained. His eyes suddenly shot over, and it was hard to tell what was being put on, like oil, salt, sauce and vinegar mixed together, and the taste of the brew became messy. He looked at Kou Qiu, and his eyes slowly pleaded.
“…Boss Liu.”
Kou Qiu saw the begging, but he was not ruthless at all.
"Zhen Zhuangsheng," he whispered, with a firm tone, "I have given you a chance."
More than once.
During the relationship between the two, Duan Cun is always the one who retreats step by step. Chen Hanxiu said he likes it, so he gave it to him without principles; Chen Hanxiu said that he needed it, even if he had a bubble on his hands, he would have to earn money to buy it for him. At first, it was just taken care of his fellow villagers, but later, the relationship gradually changed.
In Duan Cun's heart, Chen Hanxiu's position was very high. Chen Hanxiu was smart and elegant. He was born to sit in the academy and did not need to worry about anything he had.
But he was born with Fengchen's life.
He worked hard all his life. He worked so hard that he had been in the ashes, but he still couldn't let that person look down at him.
Even Chen Hanxiu felt dirty even the money he had earned hard.
But so what? Chen Hanxiu clearly forgot that he was raised by this dirty money.
Now, even Duan Cun was finally giving up. Kou Qiu looked up at the top scholar in front of him with a gray face, and his heart was calm and there was no slight fluctuation caused by this person.
"What," he smiled, "Is Chen Zhuangyuan scared?"
Chen Hanxiu frowned on his forehead. He pulled it into the rope and pulled it into his palm. After a long time, he shouted as if he was giving in, "Duan Cun."
The people didn't know who Duan Cun was, and they all whispered in surprise. Kou Qiu put all the panic and uneasy in front of him into his eyes. Hearing his almost begging, he still did not retreat.
He stood silently in the wind, not intending to get out of the way.
"Duan Cun!"
Chen Hanxiu finally couldn't help it anymore. He shouted out this name that had not been called for nearly ten years and said sternly: "You know what day is today, why should you be so aggressive!"
"Yes," Kou Qiu said, his voice fluttering, as if it had also melted into the spring breeze. "I know what day it is, so I specially chose this day to be aggressive."
He chuckled and said, "It turns out that Chen Zhuangyuan also understands, what is aggressive?"
"When I have raised you for more than ten years, I have provided you with my studies and food and clothing, but you have abandoned me like a piece of grass in the blink of an eye. Why don't you say anything aggressive?"
"I am also a person who has suffered a flood. Chen Zhuangyuan can spend my money studying in the academy, but I can only chop wood and carry water in the Nanfeng Pavilion. At that time, why didn't Chen Zhuangyuan feel aggressive?"
A sarcastic smile slowly overflowed from his lips.
"The top scholar may have a bad memory. I forgot that I told me a few days ago that I had all the dirty money. Why? Now that you are going to hire the dirty money I earn, don't you think you are also aggressive?"
“…”
These sentences are more and more heart-killing than the other. Chen Hanxiu couldn't answer. He gritted his teeth suddenly, and the veins on his forehead were pounding.
The wind became stronger and stronger, raising the young man's plain robe, and the horns of the robe flew.
"——I just want to get my stuff back now."
"I'll ask the 1st scholar to return my dirty money to me and draw a clear line with me, a dirty man in the dust."
The louder the discussion was, the more the eyes were pierced on Chen Hanxiu like needles. He could almost hear the sound of blood flowing in his blood vessels, and it took him a few words to spit out from his mouth after a long time.
"How much do you want?"
"Not much," Kou Qiu smiled faintly and turned the account book to the end. "The total is 270,000 taels. Please ask the top scholar to hurry up and pay it quickly."
As soon as the number 270,000 taels was spit out, all the people's eyes widened.
“Two…two…”
Two hundred and seven thousand taels?!
Nowadays, ordinary people in the countryside spend only twenty or thirty taels a year. Such a huge number is like absurd words in their ears.
Kou Qiu didn't count too much with him. Although Duan Cunhe's things were only tens of thousands of silver, all the gold, silver and jewelry were valuable. He took the abacus from Han Ping, fiddled with it a few times, and said in a formal tone: "These treasures are all sold to Chen Zhuangyuan. I have discounted all the prices. If I don't worry, I have a list here. Which one is expensive? Chen Zhuangyuan can come to me - Chen Zhuangyuan see if it is to pay silver, silver notes, or gold?"
The top scholar grabbed the list and his face turned paler little by little.
Now, he can't even get twenty thousand taels.
But the people were watching noisy, and Chen Hanxiu's mind buzzed. Seeing such a huge momentum, he had to slow down for the time being and said tensely: "When I go back and get the silver bill."
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Kou Qiu was very generous and immediately ordered him to take out the IOU that had been written long ago, and pointed it to the top scholar Lang thoughtfully, "It's right here, the top scholar Lang bit his finger and pressed his fingerprint. Let's go back and we can come to ask for money."
Chen Hanxiu's eyes turned black.
...and look back.
He gritted his teeth and was about to say something else, but he heard the louder voices on both sides and said in unison: "Sign! Sign!"
"Why don't you pay what you owe to others?"
"He is not your father, so how can he support you!"
"ungrateful!"
"Give up your grudges and revenge!"
......
In such a voice, Chen Hanxiu's face became paler and had to bend down, bite his middle finger, and press a bloody handprint on the IOU. When he pressed it, Kou Qiu took the IOU back, looked at it with satisfaction, and handed it to Han Ping.
Hold the bottle carefully and put it away.
"My fellows," said Mr. Kou, who was upright, "Now, seeing that the central region is suffering from a drought, I, Duan Cun, will not withdraw the money at all - I bought all the grain and donated it to the disaster area in the central region to serve the people! I would like to ask all the fellows to witness me at that time!"
This is a good thing that benefits the country and the people. For a time, the people praised it for their kindness, praising the boss Liu of Nanfeng Pavilion for his kindness, but it was a pity that he was too kind and could easily be bullied.
As he was talking, he saw someone coming from the other end. However, Master Zhang heard that his prospective son-in-law was blocked by someone and came to see what happened in person.
He lifted the curtain from the carriage, and before he could even take the opportunity to withdraw from the onlookers, a golden and jade smoke blaster hanging under the purple robe suddenly came into the eyes of the people. The sharp-eyed people immediately pointed at the smoke blaster, and saw that the head was indeed as hollow peony pattern as I had just thought of, and shouted: "That smoke blaster! The smoke blaster is on the Grand Master!"
The people turned their heads and turned their faces to him eagerly, sweeping them over him with inquiry.
The first time Master Zhang saw this attitude, he was frightened for a moment. When he realized that, he couldn't help but raise his voice and sternly said: "What are you doing! What about Jingzhao Yin? Jingzhao Yin is drunk!"
His eyes moved to Chen Hanxiu, who did not speak for a moment, and said, "Hanxiu! You--"
"That's Boss Liu's smoke gun!"
"See, look at what he is hanging on his waist, that's-"
In the midst of chaos and noise, the crowd rushed over and surrounded the sedan chair of Tai Shi Zhang. Chen Hanxiu slowly let out a sigh of relief from his mouth. Listening to Tai Shi Zhang's loud shouting, ordering the slaves beside him to call Jingzhao Yin over and capture the mobs. But at this moment, another group of people rushed to the street. Someone suddenly grabbed the horse and came closer. He picked up a person from the chaotic crowd and placed them firmly on the horse.
A gust of wind blew.
"Who dares to catch him?" The man immediately said a low voice, and his sharp eyes slowly turned around the Taishi and Shen Hanxiu, which made both of them feel cold.
Kou Qiu was close to him, and still could hear the hot heart in the chest behind him beating quickly. I guess he rushed from the palace to this place as soon as he heard the news.
The system boy applauded his father and husband, so excited.
[Dad husband is amazing!] Its eyes are shiny, [Dad husband is the best!]
Old Cadre Kou: [......]
The people were very fashionable and couldn't react. After watching for a while, they realized that this was also an acquaintance. But they were familiar with each other. They had already said that they had welcomed him and came to him. Isn't this another protagonist in the short story book?
Some people didn't believe it at that time. Now, when General Qiu stretched out his long arms, he caught the man on the horse. Both of them seemed to be watching a juggling, and they felt that it was so exciting.
It turns out that I have a lot of relationship. Look at this action, what I said in the short story is clearly true.
In this way, Boss Liu has nine furry round tails, maybe it is true, it really can't be true anymore.
Master Zhang naturally knew him too. Seeing him holding someone in his arms, he remembered the rumors he had heard these days. This is a big man, even if he can't offend him, he wiped the sweat that had just been squeezed out on his forehead and hurriedly said, "General Qiu, this is a misunderstanding - I have no intention of arresting Boss Liu, so why not talk to me in a humble house?"
The man's eyes were still dark, and he only looked down at the young man in front of him.
The young man nodded.
"Then go," General Qiu let go, and slowly put the reins on, "I'm sorry, Grand Master Zhang."
He hugged the young man and rode to the Grand Tutor's Mansion. The remaining people watched them go far away, feeling that they were still unsatisfied. After talking for a long time, they slowly dispersed.
Han Ping Swallow Dragon and the others went straight back to the Nanfeng Pavilion, leaving only Shen Hanxiu, who was still sitting blankly on the road, without moving.
Most of the people in the team who were sent to the recruitment were gone, and only a few servants from the Shen Mansion were still beside him, he hesitantly said: "Master, we are now..."
But what should I do?
To be continued...
