"Do you know why the Fang family is just a merchant family, and the girl does not marry to the magistrate who closed the city, but to the county magistrate in our county?"
Twelve shook his head without interest.
"Hey."
The man got excited, patted Twelve on the shoulder and whispered in a low voice: "In our county, the words of the county magistrate are not as useful as those of the county magistrate. Although the county magistrate and Zhou Tongzhi have the same rank, Zhou Tongzhi is still a colleague of the same city.
You know, when it comes to the person with the most power, it’s Si Xian Cheng.”
Um???!!
Both Qi Baoer and Twelve looked at the man.
Did this person guess their identities and say these things to them on purpose, or was he just chatting?
The man seemed to have really not noticed the two people's hidden scrutinizing gazes, and still kept mumbling: "That girl Fang Er is also average-looking, not as good-looking as my mother-in-law. She is also weird, and her words always make people feel uncomfortable."
He pursed his lips and spoke with disdain: "When it comes to giving alms, we are thousands of miles away from the victims. The people doing the work are all servants of the Fang family, and the person who pays is the matron of the Fang family. In the end, she earned all the reputation."
.”
this···?
What's going on?
At this time, the results had been printed inside. The man said that Mr. Tuesday was in a dangerous place. Although he was in a terrible mess and his face was swollen into a pig's head, he was still standing. Mr. Si had been beaten to the ground for a long time.
If he didn't come, he still had a drink and someone came over to help him stand up crookedly.
"My surname is Zhou, Yueniang and you have no feelings at all. You are just the marriage that Mrs. Fang and your mother made on their own initiative. Who in Baishan County doesn't know that Mrs. Fang is the superior concubine, and she doesn't care about Yueniang, the eldest daughter.
Have you always wanted to get rid of it soon?
Yueniang and I are in love with each other, and it is Master Fang and my father who personally arranged the marriage, so why should you be unwilling to do so?"
It sounds like Mr. Si is more reasonable.
Young Master Zhou obviously did not agree with what he said, and he spat out a mouthful of blood and retorted, "Fuck you, Miss Fang Er's and I's marriage was clearly decided verbally by Miss Fang Er's biological mother before she died.
Although there is no written evidence, our two families have already exchanged tokens. Mrs. Fang only used the tokens to formally write the letter of engagement between our two families. How can you say that Mrs. Fang and my mother are the masters?"
This... is another script.
Mr. Si had a look of helplessness on his face, "Mr. Zhou, I know you are unwilling, but the facts do not allow you to argue. What I said was admitted by Mr. Fang himself. Is it possible that Mr. Fang will slander his wife?"
These words silenced Mr. Tuesday.
It's not that he can no longer argue about who got engaged to him and Miss Fang, but...
Mr. Fang is the head of the family. Mr. Fang made the decision and first broke off the engagement between him and the second girl Fang, and then arranged the engagement between the second girl Fang and the eldest son Si. There is no point in trying to decide who had the final say.
After Young Master Zhou opened his mouth, he rolled up his sleeves and turned to go upstairs without saying another word.
This will make the shopkeeper anxious. Almost everything in the lobby has been smashed. You have to pay for it!
It's just that he can't afford to offend these two people because of their different identities, so he can only worry about it with red eyes.
At this time, the eldest son stopped him and said, "Master, please calculate the losses incurred by the inn and charge them all to me."
I am also sorry for Young Master Zhou, but marriage matters are all determined by the parents’ orders and the words of the matchmaker, alas~”
Some people are willing to compensate for the loss, and since Mr. Si is the eldest son of the county magistrate, the shopkeeper is naturally more willing to sell his goods.
He immediately smiled with a flattering look on his face and said: "Master Si Renyi, Miss Fang and you are a talented and beautiful couple made in heaven."
There were also many people watching the excitement around, and they all gathered around and said kind words and compliments.
This one wishes you a long life, and the other wishes you a child.
It made the staggering figure who had just reached the second floor look very lost.
That night.
The twelve people hurriedly ran to the latrine in the backyard to deal with the problem, and were about to return to their rooms when they suddenly saw a thin figure standing by the well with his head facing down the well mouth, as if he wanted to find a way out.
Forget it if you didn’t see it, you can see it...
Twelve stepped forward, grabbed the man's back collar, pulled him away from the well mouth, and threw him to the ground aside.
"Ouch, who is it?"
By the moonlight, Twelve took a look, hey, isn't this just one of the afternoon fights?
"Young Master Tuesday, there is no grass anywhere on Tianya. Why do you want to commit suicide for someone who has changed your heart?"
With a bruised nose and a swollen face, Young Master Zhou got up as if he had been wronged and patted the dust on his body: "How could I have committed suicide? I'm thirsty, come and get some water."
Tsk, see if I believe it or not.
"How can there be no water in the guest room?"
Mr. Zhou also knew that no one would believe what he said, but it was the truth that favored him.
"I offended the local gangster here. The waiters at the inn must be afraid of offending the local gangster. Not only did I have no food to eat at night, there was no water in the house."
Hiss~ Is it so miserable?
"Didn't you pay the rent? Why???"
"Ahem, don't mention it. The hotel is in a state where they can't afford my rent. They want me to check out and leave."
"Then you..." Why don't you just stay in another inn?
The following words made Twelve feel depressed. If the Si family was really a local snake, and this man had offended Mr. Si, no inn would dare to let him stay.
Sure enough, what the young master said later on Tuesday confirmed this, "I also want to change to an inn. I went out and asked in the afternoon, but no inn dared to let me stay."
He didn't really care. Anyway, he just stayed for one night and was hungry for one night. He would leave here early tomorrow morning.
Twelve's eyes flashed, and he suddenly invited: "You haven't eaten dinner yet, so you are still hungry. I still have some food in the house, why don't you use it as a cushion."
Mr. Tuesday swallowed his saliva and looked embarrassed, "Then I will be disrespectful."
He is really hungry.
After a while, the two returned to Twelve's house.
Looking at Mr. Tuesday who was devouring his food and almost choked himself to death several times. He didn't look like a noble man at all. Twelve couldn't bear to look at him and pushed a glass of water over him.
"Slow down, slow down, come on, drink some water first."
Ouch, the warmth sent by this stranger moved Mr. Tuesday so much that his eyes turned red.
"Thank you." After taking a sip of water and putting the bun in his mouth down, he looked at Twelve with tears in his eyes.
"Brother, you don't know, I haven't eaten anything seriously for two days."
Are they brothers?
Twelve smiled and poured him another glass of water, "I was also at the inn in the afternoon. It sounds like you are a member of the official family. Why didn't you bring a few servants with you when you came out?"
Mr. Tuesday chewed the buns and said vaguely, "I ran away secretly."
It was very obvious that this man had no capital, and Twelve "saved him" and invited him to have something to eat. He trusted Twelve so much that he just felt that this man was the kind of legendary hero.
He didn't even need to ask more than twelve questions, and he just complained about his grievances.
"After Miss Fang and I broke off our engagement, my father and mother were afraid that I would get into trouble, so they grounded me."
twelve:"……"
Sure enough, they are worthy of being biological parents. Why don't they just run out and cause trouble?
