"Hmph, I only asked where Liaoge's daughter went. It would be fine if I was satisfied, otherwise..." Pei Ziyun was furious and snorted coldly.
"Daughter of Liaoge? I have never heard of Liaoge having a daughter!" The big man's eyes shrank when he heard Pei Ziyun's words. Usually, Liaoge's colleagues would only hand over money when they came to the door, but they didn't care about Liaoge's daughter, and he was a little hesitant at this time.
"Hmph, Mr. Chen, let's go!" Pei Ziyun sneered, and then held an umbrella to prepare to return to the ox cart. He had nothing to fight with these people. Not only did he have a share, but he was useless. When he went back, he ordered the yamen runners to investigate one by one. If these people really attacked, don't blame yourself for being rude.
Seeing Pei Ziyun's appearance, the man suddenly became furious and rushed forward, trying to knock Pei Ziyun down: "I'll let you enjoy me!"
Seeing the big man rushing towards him, Pei Ziyun took a step back and pointed his finger at the big man's chest. The iron-cast man fell to the ground, twitched all over, rolling on the ground and screaming.
When the woman saw the man being knocked down, she shouted in horror: "Come here, come quickly, someone has broken into a house and beat people."
It was raining heavily, and no one came outside, and a few people came out inside. An old man and a few adult men asked viciously when he saw Pei Ziyun: "Who are you and why are you here in our Liao family?"
"I'll ask again, where is Liaoge's daughter? He had an instructor before his death. I'll see her. What's the situation if she is gone?" Pei Ziyun said coldly. Originally, the girl was probably just bullied, and she didn't want these people to say that the girl was gone.
What is the situation? If these people take action, Liao Ge may consider being a member of the clan. If he does not have this blood relationship, he will naturally have to give him a retribution.
Listening to Pei Ziyun's words, the old man said coldly: "You liar are here to find trouble, right? Liao Ge died outside and was killed by a thief, and there was no entrust at all."
When the old man saw this, he shouted: "Go outside to report to the officials, there are not far away, and he is still surrounding them. Don't let these scammers run away."
Chen was furious and was about to speak. Pei Ziyun waved his hand and looked at it with a sneer.
A few quarters of an hour later, a headmaster came in from outside, wearing a straw hat, pressing a knife in one hand and chain in the other, and shouting loudly: "What's the matter, who's causing trouble?"
The man was helped up by a woman. Listening to this voice, the old man smiled and went forward: "Master Qian San, Liao Ge died outside in order to perform the responsibilities of the governor. He did not want this man to come to the door to find trouble under the name of taking care of the orphans. He also hoped that Master San would arrest this man and take it back to discipline him."
The old man was sensible and took a tael of silver in his arms and handed it over. The captain weighed the silver. Although it was not much, it was a bit of it.
"You are causing trouble?" The headmaster's expression was fierce and he was about to take someone, but when he saw Pei Ziyun, he was a little hesitant. Is this temperament wrong?
Pei Ziyun snorted coldly, and Chen handed a post on it and said, "My young master's post."
He heard Pei Ziyun say lightly: "Before Liao Ge died, I have entrusted me to take care of the orphan. I don't want this family to say that Liao Ge's orphans have gone long ago. Check it out. What should these people do so boldly and dare to attack the orphans of officials?"
I just went to the capital for a few months and didn't want to come back. The little girl was afraid of being harmed. At this time, she looked cold and was ready to fight.
The captain knew that the tone of the young master was wrong. This was not what ordinary people said at all. After taking the post and opening it, he opened it. On the famous post, he was Pei Ziyun, a juren from Yingzhou. His face changed. The captains who were working in the yamen were well-informed and immediately felt cold sweat. He turned around and looked at the old man who was handing the money just now, and roared: "Okay, you have committed a crime. Ju dared to attack the orphans of the officials. If it weren't for Duke Jie Yuan, you would have escaped this case. You dare to bribe the toll, and you will be more guilty."
After saying that, he took the chain and went up to grab the person.
Seeing this scene, the old man's face turned pale in an instant, and he couldn't believe it. He quickly shouted: "Sir, it's unfair. We did not assassinate the orphans, and we did not."
Even Mr. Qian San dared not shout, and called him the master directly. The man shouted from the side: "Sir, we did not assassinate. We are the Liao family clan. My father is the patriarch. Liaoge is dead. This house was taken back by our clan. It is impossible to fall outside. This is legal!"
The headmaster sneered: "It's legal? The Great Xu legislation is not allowed to be absent from the crowd. Do you think you can hide it? After entering the yamen, you have time to say it."
Listening to the captain's words, the yard was confused and felt that the disaster was coming. A young man following the old man stammered: "Sir, I said, I said, my niece is not dead, I live a good life in the countryside!"
Pei Ziyun heard this and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, saying to the young man: "Take us there."
It is said that Liaoge is a minor official and can survive the ninth rank. Although he has some land, he only has thirty acres. As long as the person is not dead, Pei Ziyun will not look down on this little house and land at all. The little girl will have to marry a dowry in the future, so what if she has to accompany her for a hundred acres?
The most important thing now is to find someone. After hearing this, the young man trembled and did not dare to refuse.
Pei Ziyun waved his hand: "Catcher Qian, you can keep up with this matter."
Captain Qian scolded in his heart, but smiled helplessly: "Yes, I'll follow you now."
As he said that, he got angry and put the chain on the old man, shouting: "Hurry, aren't you ready to follow the ox cart?"
After waiting for a while, two ox carts ran into the rain and disappeared into the street in a blink of an eye.
Suburbs of Zhoufu
Several earthen houses were very small and looked very narrow. There were bundles of bamboo strips in the corner of the wall, and there were messy things piled up. An old maid hugged a little girl. Under the dark light in the room, the little girl was starved to death. The old maid shouted hoarsely: "Please give me some food. The lady is about to starve to death. You can't do this. After all, the master has taken good care of the tribe over the years. How can you do this?"
"Hmph, you are an old man and a little money-accompanied person. You should have died long ago. What else do you say to make contributions? If this little girl makes a mistake, she should be imprisoned and said what food and drink are you going to talk about when you come out."
"Miss is so big, how can I understand those things? You are instigating to go to the ancestral hall to knock down the oil lamp, otherwise how could the lady make such a mistake? I gave it to you all, just for a yard?" The old woman saw that the little girl's breathing became weaker and weaker, so she shouted.
"Hmph, why are you chewing the tongue? Just be punished in it!" the woman shouted to the room, while talking, while kneading melon seeds with people.
At this time, a flash of light under the heavy black clouds, illuminating the sky and the earth, shaking the sound of the old house, and the woman couldn't help but shivered.
"Open the door, open the door." At this time, someone knocked on the door outside the courtyard and shouted.
"Here, come." A cool breeze came down when he opened the door. He saw the clan leader coming in. When the clan leader entered the door, he asked quickly: "Where is Xiaoye? Send it out quickly."
"Class leader, you didn't say you wanted to do it..." Before the woman could speak, the patriarch's face changed and interrupted: "I don't know what to do."
In the house, the old woman heard the sound outside, and grabbed the straw that saved her life and shouted, "Save the lady, come, come."
The voice was a little hoarse, and one hand stuck out from the window of the wooden house.
Pei Ziyun was shocked and stopped arguing with these people. He pushed the woman in front of him away and headed towards the room inside. Seeing an iron lock on the door, he drew his sword and flashed. With a "click", the iron lock cut off and fell to the ground.
When I opened the door, I saw an old woman holding a child. The child was so thin that he seemed to be still yelling: "Madam, I'm thirsty, I'm hungry!"
Seeing this child, Pei Ziyun rushed forward: "But is the daughter of Liao Pavilion?"
The old maid stretched out her hand: "Young master, yes, please save the lady, save the lady."
Pei Ziyun came forward to take the little girl, and suddenly remembered what Liao Ge said before his death, and his face suddenly changed. Chen Yuan looked at it and said, "Young Master, give her some water now, but she can't eat. I'll go to the kitchen to find some cold porridge. If it's a little hot, you can drink it, but not too much."
"Go quickly!" Pei Ziyun said, and dipped his fingers into the rain and fed them with water. The little girl immediately sucked her fingers desperately like a baby.
There was cold porridge in the kitchen, and it immediately became warm and brought it over. Pei Ziyun fed the little girl. The little girl couldn't open her eyes and swallowed it voraciously. The bowl of porridge was quickly finished.
"Young Master, I can't give it to you." Chen Man said, but the nanny on one side could drink three bowls in a row, thinking she was very hungry.
Pei Ziyun gave the little girl to the nanny, looked at the elder of the tribe and the two women in the yard, with a cold face. He touched his body, pulled out a silver note and stuffed it to the captain, and said, "Catcher Money, you have to deal with it impartially."
Captain Qian wanted to refuse, but looked at Pei Ziyun's face and looked shaking, bowing and saying, "Yes, Duke Jie Yuan, I will deal with it impartially."
Pei Ziyun carried the little girl out. The little girl was full and opened her eyes wide, as if she was looking at Pei Ziyun. Seeing Pei Ziyun go out, the little girl panicked: "Madam, Madam!"
Pei Ziyun turned his head and the old maid didn't know whether she should follow him at this time. Pei Ziyun looked at it, thanks to the old servant's protection, otherwise Liao Ge's daughter would have died long ago, and said, "Come on, Lord Liao has given instructions before his lifetime, and I will not treat you badly."
Pei Ziyun took the two of them out. It was windy and rainy outside. Pei Ziyun wrapped the ox cart in a straw raincoat. The old lady was slow and followed her onto the ox cart later.
Pei Ziyun asked in a low voice: "What's your name?"
The little girl was still a little scared and dared not answer. The old lady hurriedly said, "Young Master, the lady's name is Liao Qingye."
Pei Ziyun gently stroked the girl's hair: "Don't worry, there will be no such thing in the future, I will protect you."
He also said to the nanny: "You are loyal and I will not treat you badly, I will be rewarded."
The nanny listened to the captain's words and knew that the man was Jie Yuan, so she knelt down on the ox cart: "Thank you, Mr. Jie Yuan, I'm old, there's not much time left in the future. But if you didn't come, I'm afraid the lady wouldn't be able to survive tomorrow."
As he said that, he started crying. Pei Ziyun looked at the wind and rain outside the ox cart, his face was gloomy and he could not see his expression.
"Master Qian San?" Seeing the ox cart gone away and disappeared, the patriarch said tentatively, in fact, there was still some friendship between them.
"Liao San, you're a big deal." The captain showed a smiley expression and pointed a note: "What do you think is this? One hundred taels!"
"The property left by Lord Liao is only a few hundred taels? Pei Jieyuan hates you so much!"
