The memories of Xiao Tang and Wang Yuanyang were intertwined, which made Wang Yuanyang confused and confused for a while. He gradually calmed down and looked at the servant in front of him. He gradually remembered that his name was Xiao An, and he liked to make jokes. He is a lazy and lazy person who only wants to make ends meet every day, but he is actually a little clever. "
It's just that he flattered Xiao Tang and looked like a slave, like a dog fighting for the power of others and a fox pretending to be a tiger. This made the dealers in Xiaojiaji call him "Three-tailed Pheasant". He was the same as Xiao Tang (Wang Yuanyang) who read "The Helper of Gao Yanei" in "Water Margin" Dried Bird Head” Phu Yen is somewhat similar.
Thinking of this, Xiao Tang couldn't help feeling disgusted with Xiao An, the standard slave in front of him. When he fawned over him again, Xiao Tang couldn't help but scolded angrily: "Wake up when you wake up. Why are you making so much noise? Get out! I want to be quiet!"
Hearing his young master yelling and scolding, Xiao An felt relieved. Well, his young master still had the same bad temper, and it seemed that his brain was not broken. He quickly laughed and said, "Yes, yes, the young master injured his head. It’s time to rest more, I’ll take my leave now, little one.”
When Xiao An was about to leave, he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door. The man who walked in was a man in his forties. When Xiao An saw it, he quickly crossed his hands and saluted: "Manager Lei, you are here."
Manager Lei responded with a hum, and then looked at Xiao Tang with concern and said, "Master, you have finally woken up. The master is very skilled in driving horses, why are you so careless this time?"
Xiao Tang sorted out his chaotic memories and remembered that the steward's surname was Lei Mingben. Apart from him and Father Xiao, he was the most powerful steward in the Xiao family. The Xiao family's collection of tenant farmers' harvests was done by Father Xiao and Father Xiao. In addition to being an old steward, he also takes care of the business of the Damingfu car dealership, the rice shop and a restaurant in the market town that are run by Xiao Mansion. In addition, this man is always cold-faced, and nine out of ten people in Xiao Mansion are in charge. One is afraid of him.
Thinking of this, Xiao Tang said: "Thanks to Manager Laurel for taking the trouble, now that I've woken up, I guess it's nothing serious."
Lei Ben frowned slightly. How could Xiao Tang always speak so politely? Looking at his expression and tone, he felt a little strange, but he couldn't explain why.
After just a slight hesitation, Lei Ben smiled and said: "That's good, then the young master can rest in peace, over there..."
Speaking of this, he lowered his voice and continued: "The master felt relieved when he heard that the young master woke up, but the master's instructions... told the young master that you should rest in the room when you wake up, and never cause trouble to Zhuang again. This time He is still angry at the moment, but that's good. When the master calms down, he won't worry too much about those trivial matters."
Xiao Tang blushed, smiled bitterly and agreed vaguely. He had not yet adapted to the feeling of time travel, but he was already taking the blame for the previous master of this body. Moreover, if this matter were to be dealt with now, it would be a serious crime of attempted rape. Let alone how Father Xiao plans to deal with him, Xiao Tang feels that he has been wronged just like the girl Dou E who summoned Liu Yue Feixue.
Xiao An on the side muttered: "It doesn't make sense, old man. The young master is so seriously injured, but he still thinks about that trivial matter. It's not that important at all..."
Just as he was speaking, Lei Ben's face sank and he shouted sternly: "How outrageous! The young master and I are talking here, how can you, a slave of the family, have the right to talk!?"
Xiao An trembled all over and kept silent. Following Xiao Tang, he could naturally pretend to be powerful and arrogant towards ordinary farmers and customers. But facing Mr. Lei, who even wanted to give up to the young master, Xiao An knew that Xiao Tang He would not quarrel with Lei Ben for a servant like him.
Lei Ben snorted coldly, turned around and smiled meaningfully at Xiao Tang, and said: "I heard that the young master woke up. Of course, I came to visit the young master, but secondly... I brought someone to see the young master.
"
Lei Ben shouted again: "Come on, bring the young master in!"
After saying this, he saw two villagers carrying one of them into the house. When Xiao Tang saw it, it was Xiao Yi, the maid who had accused Mr. Xiao of molesting him, and who was originally one of his helpers.
Xiao Yi was being held by someone's arms at this time, and his face was covered in bruises. As soon as he entered the room, he was kicked and fell to the ground. Although he was restrained by others, his face was still filled with relief.
He and Xiao An's grandfather were servants who served ancestor Xiao Tang. Their parents died early, so Father Xiao raised them to do odd jobs in the village.
This Xiao Yi is completely different from Xiao An, but his temperament is resolute, simple, capable and steady. Because he is grateful for Xiao's father's kindness, he does the chores of mopping, sweeping, pouring, cutting and repairing in the village very diligently. He feeds Xiao Tang on weekdays.
The flying eagle dogs he raised were well fed with gyrfalcons, hawks, homing pigeons and other birds that are abundant in the white mountains and black waters. His domestication skills were so good that he got the nickname "Green Falcon".
In addition, Xiao Tang, Xiao An, and Xiao Yi have a master-servant relationship. They both grew up together. However, as they grow older, their childhood friendship gradually fades due to class barriers. So it turns out that
Although Xiao Tang thought that Xiao Yi was dull and taciturn and did not please him as well as Xiao An, he never made things difficult for him.
Lei Ben pointed at Xiao Yi and said to Xiao Tang: "Master, it was Xiao Yi who reported your idle behavior to the master, made the master angry, and caused you to be in danger for nothing. Xiao Yi, what else do you have to say?
?”
Xiao Yi snorted coldly and said: "Young Master, this time I caused you to fall off your horse and get hurt, so I know you have committed a serious crime. But after I have served you for many years, please listen to me before you deal with me. The young master has a young mind.
, It’s okay to be aggressive and reckless on weekdays. Among the tenant farmers of the Xiao family, who doesn’t live by the kindness of Mr. Xiao? But this thing that harms the body of an innocent daughter..."
Speaking of this, Xiao Yi glanced at the manager Lei Ben and continued: "If the young master really wants to take Yingchun as his concubine, no matter how brave he is, he will never dare to ruin the young master's affairs. But the young master will listen to all this.
There are some slanderous rumors, and the young lady who has not yet left the court is abandoned like a pair of worn shoes. If this becomes the first example, it will really chill the hearts of Master Xiao, as well as all the people in the Xiao family! The young master should not do that evil-hearted thing
An ungrateful person is not a good man to do such a thing!
Speaking of this, Xiao Yi cocked his neck and said loudly: "Master, if you can listen to even a little bit of what I'm saying, you won't dare to complain at all even if you kill me!"
Lei Ben's eyes narrowed, and the murderous intent was fleeting in his eyes. The young master had listened to some slanderous rumors, so he wanted to harm his daughter's innocence? But who told those slanderous rumors? It was he Lei Ben who hinted at Xiao Tang intentionally or unintentionally.
, let Xiao Tang, a young man like Xiao Tang, a fierce and fierce young man, go to find that maid Yingchun to eat meat!
Although Xiao Yi didn't name him by name, the person he was criticizing was his manager Lei. Since you're looking for death, well, then I'll grant you a favor!
Lei Ben sneered: "Let's not mention the reason for now, but as the young master's domestic servant, you eat the young master's food, wear the young master's clothes, and use the young master's clothes, but you actually instigate the relationship between the young master and the young master, and harm the young master behind his back? This time?
You, a thief, have done such a thing, what is the use of keeping such a slave, God knows what he will do next time?"
Xiao An, who was standing aside without even daring to breathe, suddenly changed his expression when he saw this. He rushed up and gave Xiao Yi a big slap in the ear, and cursed: "You blind bitch! Lard!"
You are a deceived fool! Young master has been very kind to us, but you do something like this. If I don't break your dog legs, it seems that I can't open your mind!"
Xiao Yi received a slap in the face, but his eyes showed warmth when he looked at Xiao An. He knew that Xiao An jumped out to beat him and scolded him just to show Master Xiao Tang and Manager Lei Ben. Although the slick Xiao An and the steady Xiao An
Yi gradually criticized each other, but after all, they were both dealers of the Xiao family and grew up together. Seeing Lei Ben hinting that Xiao Yi would be executed privately, Xiao An, who was afraid of things and was tactful, couldn't help but jump out and defend him.
He comes to the rescue.
But Xiao Yi was already determined to die. In ancient China, the clan system was prevalent in the countryside. Even though there were laws and regulations promulgated by the court, among the people, especially in villages and towns, the local clan chiefs still dealt with various issues. Although in cities, punishments were imposed.
The government will come forward to manage the killing of servants, but in the countryside, the patriarchal system even controls the power of life and death. If a woman is unfaithful, she will be sentenced to a pig cage, and if a servant is unfaithful, he will be killed at will. These things are all about the people.
No prosecution, no official investigation. Xiao Yi was raised in Xiao Tang's house since he was a child. It is not difficult to kill him.
Even if Mr. Xiao takes care of it for him, if Xiao Tang really wants to take his life to vent his anger, can Mr. Xiao still let his own son pay for it with his life?
Moreover, he informed Xiao Tang's father about Xiao Tang's situation. According to Xiao Tang's nature, he would be beaten severely even if it was not possible, and then he would find an excuse to drive him out of the Xiao family gathering, not to mention this.
This time because he almost killed the young master of the Xiao family.
It's just... In this case, even if the young master kills me, the girl Yingchun will still be hated by the young master...
Xiao Yi opened his mouth slightly, but remained silent. He was well aware of Xiao Tang's perverse and domineering temper and his unyielding temper, coupled with Lei Ben's fanning the flames... If he were to plead for Yingchun at this time, it would be even worse.
harmed her.
"Master, what do you think?" Lei Ben said to Xiao Tang.
Xiao Tang sat on the bed and looked at the manager Lei Ben quietly, with only one thought popping up in his mind:
This mine manager is very problematic!
From the memories that emerged in his mind, the current Xiao Tang understood, including the matter of forcibly seizing the maid Yingchun. In the past, when Xiao Tang was brave and cruel, or bullied the bankers, Lei Ben deliberately connived or even instigated it. Originally,
The "Beautiful Mastiff" used to be just a reckless and extreme young man, unable to notice that his own manager was using his own methods to control him, but now Xiao Tang has the memory of two lifetimes, and can even use a third party's perspective to control him.
Analyze Lei Ben.
He clearly knew that Mr. Xiao was an upright man, but he instigated Mr. Xiao's only son to behave wildly. Now he even encouraged him to use private means to execute his servant Xiao Yi. This would only make the relationship between the Xiao family and his son more and more rigid. He wanted to
What to do? What benefits can he get?
Could it be that...he wants to seize the opportunity, bypass the Xiao family father and son, and seize the Xiao family's property!?
Xiao Tang became wary of Lei Ben. He made up his mind, waved his hands and said, "I am so reckless, so what did I do to Xiao Yi?"
"Huh?" Lei Ben, Xiao Yi, Xiao An and others looked at Xiao Tang in surprise. They couldn't believe their ears. The perverse and violent playboy bully who was running rampant in the countryside could just let this matter go?
"But... Young Master." Lei Ben said: "Is it possible to end it like this? Xiao Yi obviously doesn't take you seriously, Young Master..."
"Mr. Lei, Xiao Yi is my servant after all." Xiao Tang interrupted Lei Ben and said, "I have my own thoughts on this matter. Since I am fine, there is no need to cause more trouble now, so I won't bother with this matter. Mr. Lei has taken a lot of trouble."
Seeing that Lei Ben still had something to say, Xiao Tang added: "Xiao Yi just told my father... about my ridiculous behavior. There is nothing wrong with what he did, right?"
Lei Ben frowned, Xiao Tang knew very well that in the eyes of others, the eldest son of Xiao, who was very powerful in the Xiao family, to him was just a yellow-mouthed kid who had a deep quarrel with his father.
Xiao Tang, who had been warned and disciplined strictly by Father Xiao since he was a child, became more rebellious and mischievous as he grew up. At this time, all he did was deliberately conniving and deliberately concealed Xiao Tang's misdeeds from Father Xiao. This Xiao family The young master of Ji regarded him as a trusted elder and listened to his advice more and more heartily.
But now looking at Xiao Tang in front of him, Lei Ben felt an inexplicable strangeness towards him. This boy seemed to be deliberately distancing himself from him. Did he fall off the horse and hit his head, but did he wake up from the fall?
Lei Ben did not show his dissatisfaction on his face and said: "In that case, I will not meddle in other people's business. Young master, please rest in peace and I will resign soon."
"Wait a minute." Xiao Tang said to the other bankers, "You and Mr. Lei should leave first. Xiao An and Xiao Yi and I still have something to say."
Lei Ben looked at Xiao Tang meaningfully, snorted secretly, and then retreated with the two bankers who were suppressing Xiao Yi.
In the room, Xiao Yi and Xiao An stood and knelt, looking at Xiao Tang in confusion, but they didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of the young master in front of them.
Xiao Tang pondered for half a minute, sighed, and said, "Stand up and talk."
Xiao Yi hesitated for a moment, stood up and said: "Master, I..."
"If you apologize, you can forgive me. You didn't do anything wrong." Xiao Tang said, "What was wrong was that I acted recklessly and was frivolous. What you just said is absolutely correct. There are certain things I have done that make me not a good man! Not only are you right, you are also meritorious."
"Master...you really didn't break your brain?" Xiao An asked worriedly. Seeing that the young master whom he was so familiar with in daily life behaved completely differently, he and Xiao Yizhen doubted whether Xiao Tang had lost his soul and was orphaned somewhere. The wild ghost seized the skin and took possession of it.
"You just broke your brain." Xiao Tang said in vain to Xiao An. He looked at the two confused servants in front of him. In his mind, in the depths of Xiao Tang's past memories, he saw him and Xiao An. The scenes of Xiao Yi and Xiao An playing happily when they were children. Xiao Yi was honest and was always teased by him and Xiao An, while Xiao An was a quick-tongued and witty person who could always make them laugh. laughing out loud……
At that time, children were innocent, and there was no distinction between high and low, and they were so happy every day. But as the three of them grew up, Xiao Tang, who became more and more resistant to his father's strict discipline, gradually became violent and rampant. The gap in status made Xiao Yi's attitude towards Xiao Tang, like Runtu in Lu Xun's works, becoming taciturn and submissive, and could only keep the past friendship in the bottom of his heart.
Thinking of this, Xiao Tang said to Xiao Yi: "Xiao Yi, we have been close friends since we were young, and we are brothers! I trust you, you will never harm me, right?"
Xiao Yi, who was originally resentful, felt a warm current well up in his chest, and tears filled his eyes before he knew it. He thought in his heart: Young Master... Young Master, he still remembers our past friendship, but why did he suddenly become like this when he woke up?
What does it look like?
Xiao An, on the other hand, was dumbfounded and thought to himself: It's over, it's over, the young master is not fooling his head. Could it be that he has lost his mind and gone crazy? How does he usually talk like this? But... if the young master is like this in the future.
It looks like it’s not bad...
Xiao Tang looked at Xiao An again and hummed: "You are quite a handsome boy. You are relying on my face all day long, and you are very arrogant and domineering inside and outside the house."
When Xiao An heard this, he immediately put away all his doubts and called out to Chong Tian Qu: "Master! I am loyal to you, and the world can learn from it! I don't act according to your orders, and I never dare to make any mistakes.
."
"Okay, okay, heaven and earth can learn from this. You are still flowing like the water of the Yellow River. Put away your face, you will make me angry when you see it!" Xiao Tang impatiently interrupted Xiao who was still expressing his loyalty.
An, said: "You just think that Xiao Tang is dead! I really want to change my way of life now and stop doing those ridiculous things."
Xiao Tang's words could only go so far. He couldn't possibly explain to Xiao Yi and Xiao An that he came from a world nearly a thousand years later, and happened to be possessed by their damn young master, right?
I heard that in ancient times, there was a man named Zhou Chu who also had a domineering and flamboyant temperament. But later he killed dragons and tigers to eliminate three evils, and his reputation has been passed down to this day. Could it be that that man also lost his head and changed his nature?
Did his temperament change drastically? Xiao An couldn't help but think about it.
And Xiao Yi was thinking in his heart: I thought that according to the young master's temperament, I would definitely die this time, but never thought that the young master seemed to have a different mind? Anyway, if the young master has always been like this, I will completely sell my life to him.
Quite willingly.
Although Xiao Yi and Xiao An were confused by Xiao Tang's sudden and extreme change, it would be a good thing for the Xiao family if the young master could really change his past.
At the same time, what Xiao Tang and the other three people didn't know was that there was an old man standing at the door, listening to their conversation. The old man was wearing a wide cloak and a straight robe. He was about sixty years old. The ridges on his face looked old, and his eyebrows
He looked shrewd and capable, but at this moment he showed a puzzled expression.
He is the head of the Xiao family, Xiao Tang's father, Xiao He, Xiao Tang. During the days when Xiao Tang fell from his horse and was unconscious, although Xiao Tang also visited Xiao Tang several times, when he was
When Xiao Tang woke up, he remembered the ridiculous things his son had done, and angrily ordered Xiao Tang to be grounded in the mansion to reflect.
Father Xiao's three children all died prematurely, and he did not have a son until he was in his forties. With Xiao Tang, the only child of the Xiao family, Father Xiao naturally hoped that his son would succeed and had strictly disciplined Xiao Tang since he was a child.
.But although Father Xiao was an upright man and had a high reputation in the Xiao family, he did not know how to educate Xiao Tang at all.
The child who was originally submissive and cautious in his words and deeds in front of him gradually grew up into a young man who was submissive and resentful in front of him. Not only did Father Xiao's body gradually grow older with time, his state of mind became even more old and weak.
This time Xiao Tang escaped from his punishment because of being frivolous with the maid in the village, but fell off his horse and fell into a coma. Father Xiao was angry and anxious at the same time. After all, Xiao Tang was the only child of his Xiao family. When he learned that Xiao Tang had recovered from his illness,
After coming over, he felt certain in his heart at first, and then thought of the ridiculous things his son had done. He was so angry that he immediately ordered someone to order Xiao Tang to be grounded and wait for him to be punished.
But...if the family law had been effective in punishing him, this unscrupulous son would not be like this now. Father Xiao thought sadly: People say that Huai Ju is called Zhi Zhi. In the past, my grandfather and father were the Commander-in-Chief of the Nanyuan Military Command in the Liao Dynasty.
Military envoy, Nanyuan Xiangwen (Khitan language, meaning general, chief), he also served as an errand in Nanyuan Liemadusi (in charge of the Ministry of Rites), and he was also a stoic and self-disciplined figure. How come the Xiao family is now living in the Song Dynasty and is here?
One generation, but this generation is so useless?
Father Xiao made some calculations and quietly walked to Xiao Tang's bedroom alone, wanting to see how Xiao Tang would react after he woke up. He happened to hear the words of Xiao Tang, Xiao An, and Xiao Yi, and he couldn't figure out what he was saying.
Why does my rebellious son speak so differently than usual?
Suddenly, Father Xiao saw a servant running towards Xiao Tang's bedroom in a hurry. He frowned and turned to one side. The servant was anxious and wanted to report to Father Xiao but couldn't find him. He ran straight away in panic.
Xiao Tang came running to the bedroom.
"It's bad, Master! That maid in Yingchun is seeking death again! Zhang Er and Li Xiaoshi are guarding her, but they can't stop her."
When Xiao Tang heard what the servant said, he stood up quickly, ignoring the dizziness in his head. Yes, this matter is not completely solved. The temperament of the maid named Yingchun is really soft on the outside and strong on the inside. In fact, many people at this time
On the contrary, the maid of a wealthy family hopes that her master and young master will fall in love with her. If she can be happy with her, she will be a concubine on a branch and no longer have to work hard as a servant.
Not only was this maid unwilling to have her innocence tainted by Xiao Tang (the former Jinmao Mastiff), but she wanted to die to prove her innocence. It sounded like she had made a fuss more than once while he was in a coma, and it was impossible to blame this bad debt on her.
But other things are fine, but...how to solve this problem!?
Xiao Tang sighed and said to Xiao An and Xiao Yi: "Let's go and take a look."
When Xiao and Tang and the others followed the servant to see Yingchun, Xiao and his father stepped out from around the corner of the house, stared blankly at the formation, and then followed him.
