On both sides of the streets in old Beijing, there are uniform two-story gray brick houses, which look gray and not bright.
From the nearby theater, the sound of gongs and drums and the singing of babbling songs came from the theater. Yuzhu happened to be tired from walking, so he walked over.
Wu Jiang was muttering in his heart, but he was not slow and followed closely.
Li Si'er was a true theater fan and often invited theater troupes to come into his house to sing operas. However, the second master was always afraid of noise and could not understand the popular Kunqu opera.
Today, what's going on?
"Hey, sir, are you back here for the first time? There is a private room upstairs, please come in." The waiter in front of the theater door made a particularly smart move, then nodded and bowed to let the jade pillar in.
In theaters, restaurants, Yihongyuan, etc., in this large type of service industry, whether they are waiters or shopkeepers, they are all very clever.
This guy, just by looking at Wu Jiang, Han Shuang and others, who were all dressed in brocade and silk, and there were several big men with swords standing next to them, they knew that this young man who came here was probably a noble person who could not be offended.
This guy wanted to put his head in his crotch. He made up his mind to make the noble man feel comfortable.
Yuzhu has never been artistic. He can't even understand Peking Opera, let alone Kunqu Opera. He went to the theater simply because he was tired from walking and wanted to sit down, drink a cup of tea and watch the excitement.
The private room upstairs is right opposite the stage, which is indeed a good location. Sitting at the angle of the jade pillar, you can have a panoramic view of the expressions on the faces of the actors on the stage.
It is impossible to have good tea in this kind of theater. Hanshuang took out a white jade porcelain bottle from his sleeve, put it gently on the table, turned around and ordered: "Bring the kettle up, and add a few plates of candied melon seeds."
At this time, Changsui had already placed the special tea cup for Yuzhu.
Seeing the waiter looking at her eagerly and not moving, Hanshuang rolled his eyes slightly and then said with a straight face: "I'll pay for the tea."
The waiter knew at a glance that Hanshuang was an outsider, so he agreed with a crisp voice and gave Wu Jiang, who was standing by the door, a look that could only be understood.
Wu Jiang followed him out, and the waiter bowed and said, "This man, the owner of our garden, has a deep relationship with Changsantangzi."
With the passage of peace, the lives of the banner men in these four-nine cities have become increasingly corrupt and degenerate. Among them, working as an actor, raising a wife, strolling in alleys, and eating flower wine are no longer a problem.
The most popular thing nowadays is to play the game of Longyang Little Xianggong, which makes the princes and nobles flock to it.
The waiter thought that Yuzhu was not old enough to watch flower shows and drink wine, so he simply recommended the young husband-in-law who had grown up three sons to come and talk with him.
Only by making the noble man happy can this guy with no monthly salary get a lot of rewards.
"Get out." Wu Jiang was so angry that he felt tight in his chest and kicked the guy to the ground with a flying kick.
If Longkoduo and Li Si'er knew about it, he would lead the second master to play with the little husband in the theater, and the skin and cramps would be mild.
Even though he drove away the man, Wu Jiang did not dare to tell Yuzhu about it for fear of dirtying the second master's ears.
Yuzhu drank half a pot of tea and cracked two handfuls of melon seeds. He was almost rested and planned to get up and leave.
"Pa." A clear slap came from the private room next door.
Immediately afterwards, the man's angry scolding was heard.
"You bitch, I ordered you because I think highly of you. Don't be shameless."
This man's voice sounded familiar, but Yuzhu couldn't remember who he was for a moment.
Yuzhu was not a nosy person. He stood up slowly, lifted his feet and walked outside.
In these four-nine cities, even if his biological father Longkodo was the admiral of the nine gates, he was far from being able to cover the sky with one hand.
In this society without human rights, powerful people who cannot be offended can destroy your family with just a flick of their little finger.
Wu Jiang opened the door and stepped aside. As soon as Yuzhu walked to the door, he saw the door of the private room next door suddenly opened.
"Take her back to the house. I will take care of her slowly." Someone came out of the house. Yuzhu looked up and saw that it was indeed an old acquaintance.
Wu Jiang has a very good memory, and he immediately recognized the man as Li Si'er's younger brother, Li Wu.
This Li Wu is not a good guy. He eats, drinks, whores, gambles, deceives, and is proficient in everything. People give him the nickname: Black Heart Five.
Originally, Li Wu was somewhat restrained and did not dare to act too wildly.
Ever since Li Si'er followed Longkodo, Li Wu relied on Longkodo's power to act unscrupulously, and there was no bad thing he dared to do.
Li Wu was so drunk that he did not recognize Yu Zhu. However, Li Wu's personal attendant, Xiao San, did not drink.
"Oh, hey, it's the second master in front of you. Xiao San, please be safe, second master." Xiao San rushed to Yuzhu and knocked him down.
After all, Yuzhu is a junior, and he doesn't want to care about Li Wu's bad affairs. However, the scandal of forcing a woman to be stolen is really evil. If word spreads, it will definitely damage Longkodo, Li Si'er and his reputation, so he can't ignore it.
.
"What's going on inside?" Yuzhu stared at Xiao San and asked him coldly.
"This..." Xiao San didn't dare to tell the truth, but he couldn't think of an excuse for the moment, so he stammered and couldn't speak clearly.
Xiao San's eyes were moving around in a secretive and thief manner, which was particularly irritating.
Yuzhu immediately ordered him to go down, "Pull him down and give him ten whips first to wake him up."
The master was unhappy and openly became violent. How could Chang Sui and the nursing staff dare to neglect him? The healthy servants swarmed up, grabbed Xiao San's arms, and dragged him outside.
"Second Master, I said, I said... what, our Fifth Master fell in love with the girl in the house. Who would have thought that the girl was actually a businessman who only sells her art but not her body..."
A good man never suffers immediate losses.
No matter how stupid Xiao San is, he understands that the Second Master Yu in front of him, let alone a cheap ant like him, would not dare to offend him even if he borrowed 800 courage from Li Wu!
Since Yuzhu bumped into him, he naturally had to consider the proper aftermath. After thinking for a while, he ordered the chief steward Hu Biao: "Take the master's name card and send the girl inside back. If the mother in the courtyard asks too high,
There is no sincerity at all, that is intentional blackmail. You just call the police, seal off her yard, and take away all the people. If mom offers a fair price, in addition to the ransom money, you can also give the people inside
The girl has three hundred taels of silver, so she can fly away quickly so that Xiao San doesn't see her again."
"You follow Manager Hu and go handle this matter together." Yuzhu ordered Wu Jiang again.
"Hey." Wu Jiang was in charge of Yu Zhu's private money, so he went with him. Naturally, it was impossible for Hu Biao to tamper with the second master's money.
Hu Biao was dumbfounded. He never expected in his wildest dreams that the arrangements made by the second master, who was only 14 years old, would be watertight and comprehensive.
"In addition, bring Li Wu and Xiao San to the patrol camp. When they really repent and reform, they will be released." Yuzhu thought very clearly. Heroes need wings, and bad deeds also need accomplices.
After eliminating Xiao San and other accomplices, Li Wu will have to stop for a while no matter what he does.
"Hey." Hu Biao just lost his composure and no longer dared to despise the second master's order. He immediately led his men and tied up Li Wu, Xiao San and several other accomplices.
After all the bad guys were caught, Yuzhu raised his legs and was about to leave, when he suddenly heard loud applause.
"Hehe, you are actually so ruthless in cleaning up your own family. It is indeed true to the old saying, since ancient times, heroes have emerged from youth."
I saw a young man with an air of nobility walking out from the corner of the corridor.
Yuzhu didn't know him, but Liu Wu, his personal second manager, was well-informed. He quickly leaned into Yuzhu's ear and whispered, "It's the Fourteenth Master in the palace."
What a danger, Yuzhu secretly broke into a cold sweat!
