Chapter 145 This is not called bribery

She was very curious. The last time she went to the Tang Mansion for a banquet, she also wore some washed-out clothes.

"I feel ashamed to say it, but it doesn't matter if I don't say it, why don't we deal with Miss Jiang San's affairs first."

"I would like to treat ten of our prefect's Yamen servants to a meal for five days."

When Zhou Ziang heard this, his face lit up with joy: "Seriously?"

"It couldn't be more true. Afterwards, everyone will be given one or two wages."

When Zhou Ziang heard this, he was half happy and half confused, "I wonder what the girl means?"

"Please ask Mr. Zhou to select ten government officials and guard them in front of the Tang Mansion. They will stand guard for a few days. They will not need to do anything and will not make it difficult for Mr. Zhou to do anything."

Zhou Ziang thought to himself that there is such a good thing, "I wonder if I can pretend to be a government servant and stand on these five heavenly posts?"

For a tael of silver and five days of food?

Jiang Wedao: "Master Zhou can go to the Tang Mansion without changing into the uniform of a yamen servant. He can eat at any time for free. How about cooking Master Zhou's favorite dishes every time? I will give Master Zhou ten taels of silver afterwards."

"I do not accept bribes."

"This is not called bribery, but part-time extra money?"

"Part time extra money?"

"As far as I know, your monthly holidays are five days, so I won't take up their official time. I will find ten people who still have holidays this month. They can use these five days as a rest to make extra money. If this

The matter is done quickly, and can be completed in three or four days, and I will give you a lot of money."

"There are still good things waiting here. Miss Jiang San, when do you want to start?"

"Tomorrow, no matter what the situation is, no one will be allowed in or out of the Tang Mansion, and just don't answer anyone else's questions. I only have these two requirements."

"Okay, this is something they often do. We have agreed that I will go too. I like to eat sweet and sour pork ribs and braised pork elbow."

Then Zhou Ziang said silently with a smile on his face: I haven't eaten in a month.

"Keep your fill."

After a few people made an agreement, they left the Yamen.

Tang Si still didn't understand why she would do this, and she completely believed it. Without asking any more questions, she just said, "Where are we going now?"

"Of course I'm going to buy the ribs and elbows that Mr. Zhou likes to eat, as well as the food for our house these days. Have you forgotten that I said no one is allowed in or out of the Tang Mansion starting tomorrow?"

The next day, Zhou Ziang led ten people and surrounded the Tang Mansion without any hesitation. The government officials were all wearing work clothes and holding halberds, standing upright and guarding the gate of the Tang Mansion with solemn expressions.

And a back door and a corner door.

Although there were only ten of them, they were all serious and did not allow anyone to approach the Tang Mansion. If anyone asked out of curiosity, they would just say that the government is doing things, and others would avoid it.

Everyone also saw that the prefect, who was wearing a fourth-grade official uniform, entered the Tang family's door directly through the main door, and then did not come out for a long time.

The people around started talking about it.

"It's not like we just held a birthday banquet two days ago. Did the Tang Mansion commit something serious?"

"Who knows? It's part of the Tang family's duties. Except for their second master who likes gambling, he doesn't seem to have done anything evil."

"This is really a crime. Did you see that the two women in their family won't let them buy groceries even if they say it?"

"No, it's serious. Let's leave quickly to avoid getting into trouble."

The rest of the Tang family didn't know what was going on, so they all sat together.

Mrs. Wang was the most frightened. At first, she thought that Tang had invited the state government office to check the accounts. At first, when she saw Zhou Ziang appeared in a government official's suit, she stared straight up and was so frightened that her legs weakened.

Jiang Wei was afraid that the Jiang family would also be worried, so she quickly explained: "I lost two things yesterday. I asked Mr. Zhou to help me find them. Before my things were found, Mr. Zhou came to help me seal off the scene. Don't worry, it's time.

You can do whatever you want, but no one can go in or out, which has been aggrieved to everyone these past few days."

Although everyone in the Jiang family didn't know what Jiang Wen was up to, they all silently supported her.

When Mrs. Wang saw that she was not here to check on her, she immediately became arrogant. When she heard Jiang Wei's words, she immediately shouted: "Miss Biao, what are you talking about? Why did you lose something and want to blockade our house? What do you mean?"

Is there a thief in our Tang mansion?"

When Tang Bao heard this, his head shrank. After she was beaten, she didn't dare to ask for Jiang Wen's clothes anymore. She returned them obediently the next day. But when she returned them, there was a hairpin and a pair of earrings.

return.

Chaixing told Jiang Wen during the checkup, but Jiang Wen didn't care and just gave it to her as a gift.

Tang Bao mistakenly thought that Jiang Wei was looking for these two things, so he quickly hid behind him, not daring to look at anyone.

"I didn't say that, great-aunt. I don't doubt the people of our Tang family at all. I'm just worried that someone might sneak in and steal something during the birthday banquet. I just don't let anyone have a chance to escape."

When Mrs. Wang heard that she was not doubting the Tang family, she didn't say anything. She just said: "You guys like it as much as you like."

Then he returned to his house, shaking his bucket.

Tang Bao was scared, and he said nervously and cautiously: "Then I will go back to the room first."

Seeing Tang Bao's timid appearance, Mrs. Tang despised the arrogance of this unworthy family man, and regretted even more that her eldest brother had adopted a concubine to be the first wife.

A Tang-like, well-behaved young lady, without the dignity of a legitimate daughter, unable to get married when she is too old. The younger one always likes to play tricks, and is just as greedy and petty as her mother.

Looking at the three girls from the Jiang family, they are still upright, without any embarrassment or panic? Tang is slightly proud, they are all good girls she raised. If she had known, Tang Si would have been raised by her a few years ago.

Yes, it's just that it's too late to say this now.

She looked at Jiang Wah and said, "Since this is your idea, then you will be responsible to the end, and I will not participate. But we can't go in or out for these two days?"

"Let's not go in or out for now. I bought enough food for a few days yesterday, and I plan to go out in two days."

So everyone in the Jiang family didn't care about this matter.

The next day, Tang Xiu, who had to go out to gamble twice every day, suddenly couldn't leave. He was addicted to gambling and his hands were itchy, so he decided to go out and play two games.

Unexpectedly, he was stopped by the government officials.

To put it bluntly, Tang Xiu was just a little ruffian. At first, he showed off the momentum of a young master of the Tang family and insisted on going out.

"You are so brave that you dare to stop me. Why don't you go to the streets to find out who I, Tang Erlang, am, and why don't you let me out?"

The yamen servant held up his halberd and ignored him.

"I can tell you that my grandfather was once a county magistrate. You must know good from evil."

"I wonder if I, the prefect, can outshine your grandfather, the former county magistrate?"

When Tang Xiu saw that it was Zhou Zi'ang, he immediately did not dare to be arrogant anymore. He immediately changed his face, nodded and bowed and said: "Of course it is Mr. Zhou who is here. Mr. Zhou, you said that our Tang Mansion did not commit adultery, nor did we do any sneaking.

Pig, why don't you just do us a favor and let us go?"

"That's called raping and stealing. Second Young Master Tang, why don't you go back to your house and study during these two days."

Tang Xiu didn't care whether he was wrong or not, he just wanted to get out. When he saw that there was no chance of getting out, his hands itched unbearably, so he pretended to turn around and go back, but when he saw that they weren't paying attention, he wanted to run out.
