Lord of the House

The tea hotel is really ordinary. There are several tables in the hall. There are two compartments separated by cloth curtains in the northeast corner near the kitchen. The cloth curtains only cover the upper half of the doorway. The guard in Tsing Yi walked into one of them. The curtain was lifted, and the people sitting inside looked out.

Liang Zuoren, the magistrate of Shiliang County, was in the age of no confusion, with a white face and a slight beard. He was wearing a casual uniform with a regiment collar. He was wondering who was making a commotion outside. Tie Bian stood outside the curtain and saluted: "I'm still barking like two watchdogs. I didn't expect the magistrate to be here, and the students are polite."

Lin Fu spoke bitterly, Liang Zuoren was embarrassed, and he couldn't let go even if he was angry.

When Lin Bie was handing the salutation at the county government office, Liang Zuoren was inviting friends from many years to come here for dinner. Liang Zuoren, who was resurrected after the death in the Baisha County robbery, knew his details and his writing skills were average, but he was a little more fortunate than others. Naturally, Lin Bie couldn't afford it. Afraid of delaying the reunion with his friends, Liang Zuoren just made an excuse to reject Lin Bie's request to see him. How could he have thought that he would meet here by chance, but the guards of his friends blocked them from the door and collided with them?

"Well..." Liang Zuoren responded with a gloomy face, and said, "No need to be more polite, you can also go to dinner."

Lin Bie wanted to see who else was sitting in the private room, but the curtain had already been put down from inside.

Lin Fu and the others found a square table in the corner and sat down. Zhao Hu was familiar with this place, and stood there to greet the young and beautiful lady of the Xiao family and said, "Ms. Xiao, do you still remember the dishes I ate in the store? Bring us another cold-cut beef." The lady of the Xiao family's soft and glutinous voice was really nice, and she responded with a clear voice: "Remember, do you want to warm a pot of Linghu Yellow?"

Zhao Hu sat down, put his head close to Lin Bie's ear, and said in a low voice, "You're coming back this time, it's very different from the past."

"Liang Zuoren is a parental official in Shiliang County, shouldn't I provoke him?" Lin Fu asked.

Zhao Hu felt that Lin Fu was very different from the past. Although he felt very happy just now, he also thought that if the cautious Lin Jingchang was present, he would probably be uneasy, and he didn't know whether Lin Fu should or not.

Lin Fu laughed and said in a low voice, "'Be cautious when you are in a low position, and be arrogant when you are in power'. This is the mentality of a mediocre person. When I was able to repay myself in Baisha County this time, I realized a truth and thought about it.' When you are poor, you will not be bullied by others, and you will not be envied when you are prosperous.” The mentality of being mediocre is unacceptable. Liang Zuoren, if I don’t slap his face, he will look down on me after all; Even if I hold grudges, I also know that I am not a character that can be easily provoked... It doesn't matter if you are inferior, you have to show your fangs, which is different from provoking trouble."

"Okay, Mr. Qin can't tell you the truth..." Zhou Pu lowered his voice, but his left hand made an exaggerated slap on the table. With a grin at the corner of his mouth, he felt more and more about Lin Bing's taste for himself: Decisive, responsible, not sloppy in doing things, seemingly daring and reckless, but in his heart there are cares that others can't keep up with.

Zhao Hu couldn't understand what Lin Fu was saying for a while. He was thinking that Lin Fu's life and death in Baisha County was different from the past. He should not have looked at him in the same way.

****************

In the private room separated by a curtain, the middle-aged man in a long gown who had just appeared at the door of the store, and two guards in azure robes stood aside and waited. They were all guards. Sitting opposite Liang Zuoren was a handsome young man in his early twenties, who was blocked by a curtain. He could not see Lin Fu and others, and asked Liang Zuoren: "Master Liang, who was that person just now, and he was so arrogant and domineering in front of your parents and officials. ?"

"It's a child of the Lin family..." Liang Zuoren said with a frown.

The young man was just listening to Liang Zuoren complaining that the Lin family used the status of the Sexun noble family to control the place, and now he heard Liang Zuoren say that such a person is a child of the Lin family, and he said angrily: "This is too arrogant! Why should Master Liang appease such arrogant villains? Drag him to the county government to kill thirty boarders, and let him know what it means to be disrespectful to a superior."

Liang Zuoren shook his head and smiled, showing a somewhat helpless smile. He didn't answer the young man's words, turned his face to a middle-aged scribe sitting in his left hand, and said, "Today, you also saw my situation, even if it is a side child of the Lin family, it is not enough. Take me as a small magistrate in your eyes." Liang Zuoren said this, but he was a little strange in his heart: They all said that this Lin Bie was only a good-for-nothing, but he was very sharp just now?

"The local tycoons are strong, and there is always a hidden danger that their tails can't be lost..." The middle-aged scribe who had been sitting next to him silently sighed softly at this time, "When I met Governor Li this time, I wanted to ask him why Do you want to be soft-hearted towards the extravagant family, so that the tyrants everywhere have delusions?"

Liang Zuoren has lived in the area for a long time, and he does not know the trend of the court, so he does not dare to discuss the return of the luxury family.

****************

Lin Bing and the others sat around the table, waiting for the dishes to arrive. Occasionally, they would pay attention to the private room behind the curtains. The unpleasantness at the door of the store just now was dissipated by the steaming aroma of the food.

There were four vulgar men sitting around the table next to them, the four who entered the tea hotel in front of Lin Fu and them. They were in patched long robes, tied with straw ropes around their waists as belts, and they wore square-cornered skins on their heads. With melon hats and four long bamboo poles leaning against the wall, they looked like porters who went into the city to work for work, and their bones were too strong. The four porters looked at the little lady of the Xiao family who was busy in the hall, drinking and laughing there: "There are two most famous widows in Shiliang County, one is this lady of the Xiao family. The Xiao family has a home in the west of the city. Silk Cloth Zhuangzi is a rare wealthy family in Shiliang County. Unfortunately, his son is ill and terminally ill. It is said that he was married to the little lady of the Xiao family. Within ten days, the short-lived son of the Xiao family died. Huh, this Xiao family complained that the little lady of the Xiao family was forced to kill his son and rushed out. The little lady of the Xiao family took over the operation of this tea hotel from her parents, and she can also live. This little lady of the Xiao family looks like But it's hard, the big girls and little daughter-in-law in the city are not as beautiful as her; but this is not what she is famous for."

"Then where is the little lady of the Xiao family most famous?" someone next to her interjected obscenely.

"Think about it, that TB patient died after ten days of marriage, presumably after marriage, he was incapable of being humane. Everyone is wondering if the little lady of the Xiao family has not lost the red pill..." The man said It seems to be deliberately teasing the owner of the Xiao family, the little lady of the Xiao family, the whispering voice can be heard by half of the diners in the hall, and the others will only laugh wickedly. There was some resentment in the man's beautiful eyes, but he couldn't drive the guests out, and he added more and more attractive temperament. Lin Fu, Zhao Hu and the others were listening and laughing, but they didn't have any extra sense of justice to stand up to fight the injustice. They just teased the little widow with words. For the people in the market, it really wasn't a big deal.

"Who is the other famous widow in Shiliang County? Could it be that Ben Wan became famous?" Another interjected.

"I don't know if this red pill has been lost or not," the man became more and more complacent, and his voice became louder, "I wonder if you have heard about the Seventh Lady in Shiliang County?"

"The seventh lady of Lindu? Ah, Lin Tingxun, the head of the Lin family, is still alive, why is the seventh lady a widow again?"

"Don't look at the fact that there are few people in the entire Dongyang Mansion who are more powerful than Lin Tingxun, but if you have seen him once, you will know if the Seventh Madam is a widow. Lin Tingxun was alive and well ten years ago, but in that cold winter ten years ago, Four large ships from the water village in Hongzepu came to rob Shanglindu, and Lin Tingxun personally led the village camp to chase down the robbers, and accidentally fell into the ice water during the water battle.

"Didn't the lord of the Lin family marry the daughter of the Gu family to be the seventh lady after that? If his tricks are useless, what would he do with a concubine?" a question asked.

"If others suspect that you are useless, you must find something to cover it up? Before Lin Tingxun fell into the water, he married a wife, gave birth to a young son, and after marrying the seventh lady, you can see what happened to the seventh lady's stomach over the past few years. ?" Seeing someone questioning him, the man's voice became louder and louder, "Besides, the six ladies of the Lin family are all honestly staying in the inner house, and only these seven ladies show their faces and intervene in the affairs of the Lin family. So condoning the Seventh Madam? Speaking of which, the Seventh Madam is really a pitiful person. Ten years ago, the Gu family was also a noble family, and the Seventh Madam was also a young lady, but Gu Wuchen, the uncle of the Seventh Madam who was an official in Beijing and the second eldest of the Gu family, did not know what she had done. She was crazy and wanted to renegotiate the case of the traitorous thief Su Hu, and almost got her head chopped off. The parents of the Seventh Lady were also implicated and sentenced to die on the way. wuxiaspot.com~ I was also wronged to marry Lin Tingxun. You said that the second son of the Gu family, if he knew that his niece had married a scumbag for him, would he feel guilty and jump into the river? The seventh lady has been a widow for ten years, speaking of which It's also strange, the last time I saw the seventh lady's face was moist, it didn't look like a long time, and when I looked at the men of the Lin family, they seemed to be willing to drive for her, and it's not difficult to understand the reason..."

Zhao Hu's family benefited from the care of the seventh lady, Gu Yingxiu, and Zhao Hu also respected the seventh lady. Hearing this, he couldn't help himself, and he wanted to beat the case and teach these madmen a lesson. Lin Bie grabbed his wrist, shook his head slightly to signal him to sit up, and glanced at Zhou Pu with a frown, wondering if he saw anything unusual.

In this era, the government is like a tiger in the eyes of ordinary people, and it is the norm in this society that people are afraid of seeing officials. Just now, I came in to reveal his identity to Liang Zuoren Shili. Many of the diners in the store hurriedly left after eating, but the four porters next door were not affected at all. When the county magistrate did not exist, he said these nonsense more and more recklessly. It is the strong Lin family who arranged the Dongyang Mansion with nonsense; it is really arrogant. Although the four porters also observed their side while they were talking, Lin Fu could tell that these four people were not coming towards them. Could it be that they said these nonsense to the people in the private room?

Lin Fu thought to himself, besides the magistrate Liang Zuoren, who else is in the private room? What's the relationship with the Seventh Madam and the Gu family?

Zhou Pu lightly kicked Lin Bie on the table and let him look at the four bamboo poles leaning against the wall, indicating that there was something wrong with the four bamboo poles.

"Enough, the tongue is chewed, and you crazy goods are popping up!" At this moment, the curtain was suddenly opened from the inside, and a tall and straight young man rushed to the next table with an angry face and scolded loudly. My QT room is open!
