012 Poor Tigress
Hu Niu and A Chou seem to have done such things as overturning the wall. He is as agile as a gymnast. With a high earth wall, Hu Niu jumped gently and didn't even make a sound, she landed on the ground.
"A Chou, throw the package down first..." Hu Niu said in a low voice, "Don't worry, it's not too high, it's less than three feet lower than the walls of our hometown's backyard..."
Ah Chou is much more timid than Hu Niu. She twisted and rubbed against the wall, "Miss, I'm scared!" She didn't dare to jump down for a long time. But in the end she couldn't twist the lady, but she jumped down with gritted teeth and closed her eyes.
It was broken. When the little girl jumped down from the wall, her left foot slid and her body changed. Now it wasn't her feet that hit the ground first, but her butt must have hit the ground. She was so thin that she broke the waist disk.
With a shout, Ah Chou felt that he had fallen into a soft place, and someone was still squirting in front of him. When Ah Chou opened his eyes and looked at it with the faint light, he was stunned at that time.
"Xiao...Xiao...Xiao..." Xiao said three times and didn't say a complete sentence, and finally he fainted. She was not injured, but suddenly remembered that she was being held in her arms by a man, and she fainted shyly.
It was Xiao Letian who caught Ah Chou. He looked at the yellow-haired girl who was only thirteen or fourteen with a embarrassed look on his face, sighed and shook his head. He thought to himself, do I and this girl have a bad horoscope? I fainted once when I saw me?
At this time, Hu Niu was covering her mouth, and her eyes were full of shiny things. It seemed that she would scream without covering her mouth, and she would cry. Mr. Xiao, who was thinking about it day and night, appeared in front of her like a magic trick.
I don’t know what happened. At that moment, all the grievances that Hu Niu suffered in the past half month wanted to pounce on Xiao Letian’s arms and cry.
The fat shopkeeper and the guy saw that there was no one on the street, so he quickly took the maid from the military advisor and took it to the pot-burning restaurant from the side door of the kitchen. Xiao Letian looked at Hu Niu with a wicked smile, "Okay, the eldest lady of the Fan family has learned to overturn the wall. This is not a good girl. I forgot all three or four virtues? I will punish you to copy the "Woman's Commandment" ten times..."
Xiao Letian originally intended to be a joke, but unexpectedly, Hu Niu's eyes stood up at that time, and her whole body exuded a tigress aura.
"I didn't expect you to be like this too? I'm blind and misread you. You give me Ah Chou back. I won't know anyone from now on..." Good guy, Hu Niu actually held back her tears, her eyes were extremely cold.
Oh, this is really as famous as it is. It is indeed a little tigress. How can I turn against you if I say it? Xiao Letian was stunned. I ran away on a hundred miles of mountain roads, but finally I complained?
"This is not a place to talk, go to the store to talk first..."
"If I don't go, I am a big daughter. What's the matter with going to your room? Has this been written in the female commandment? Have you given me three obediences and four virtues?"
Wuchang understood as soon as he heard this. It turned out that his joke was caused by the trouble. He really didn't expect that Hu Niu's rebellious thoughts were so serious. Is this a sign of breaking through the shackles of feudal ethics? Xiao Letian quickly coaxed and persuaded him, and even apologized, he finally brought Hu Niu into the side door.
But no one noticed that just as Wuchang coaxed Hu Niu into the pot restaurant, his thief eyes were staring at him from the wall of the courtyard.
In the private room of the roast pot restaurant, Hu Niu said with tears in her eyes that had happened in the past half month, and Xiao Letian almost became disgusted. His previous impression of feudal ethics was instilled in him by books and film and television works. Today he saw the real version.
The origin of the whole thing was the 110,000 taels of silver that was stolen. The shopkeeper Fan, also known as Hu Niu's father, Fan Jian, was the serious second boss of the Fan family in Shanxi, and his brother Fan Ru was the head of the family.
The Fan family in Shanxi has a great origin and was once the leader of the Eight Great Masters of Shanxi merchants. Fan Yongdou, the ancestor of the Fan family, put a lot of effort into raising materials and food in the Qing Dynasty. He was particularly hardworking to raise more and faster chapters. As a result, during the Shunzhi period, the emperor personally met in Beijing and gave him the identity of the Royal Merchants of the Internal Affairs Office, and even rewarded him with all the off-mouth businesses in Zhangjiakou.
Later, the descendants of the Fan family were also very promising, intervening in the transaction of salt merchants and carrying out copper materials with Japan. They were famous tycoons in the Kangxi, Yongle and Qianlong dynasties. However, in the 48th year of Qianlong's reign, the Fan family completely declined because of a large amount of losses. The Qing government took away the title of the imperial merchants and seized all their property. At this point, the Fan family was in a slump.
However, over the past hundred years, the Fan family spent money and scattered their leaves, and many descendants hoped to restore the glory of their family. From the beginning of Daoguang, the Fan family's branch has gradually grown with the support of countless Shanxis, and the current Guangde family was founded.
Hu Niu's father Fan Jian is the brother of Fan Ru, the current head of the Fan family. Fan Jian was updated as soon as possible. In his ideal, he did not want to restore his former status as a royal merchant, because in his opinion, cooperation with the royal family is actually the most dangerous business, which can make you a temporary but will never be a lifetime.
But his brother Fan Ru didn't think so. His ideal was not only to become an imperial merchant, but also hoped that more and more Confucian scholars would appear in the family, and that there would be many scholars to enter the imperial examination in the future and a high-ranking official.
These two different values made the two brothers quarrel for a lifetime, but they couldn't make any noise after arguing. Fan Ru is the eldest brother and the well-deserved head of the family. Of course, people have to listen to him. Fan Jian is the pillar of the family's business, and he earns 70% of the family's money.
As a result, the two brothers fought for a lifetime and never said to convince anyone. Until now, they are both in their sixties and seventies, and they are getting more and more fierce. Even in the beginning of spring, Fan Ru forced Fan Jian's concubine to death, which is Hu Niu's biological mother.
"My uncle...My uncle has been ill since the Chinese New Year. The doctor said that typhoid fever may not be cured. Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo
"Unless my uncle dies..." Hu Niu could no longer help but lie on the table and cry.
It's so pitiful, Xiao Letian hugged Hu Niu's shoulders, and the little girl was not polite and directly got into Xiao Letian's arms, snot and tears smeared him all over. Please come more and faster chapters.
As Hu Niu cried intermittently, Xiao Letian learned about the tragedy later. As a concubine, Hu Niu's biological mother was really brave. Without the consent of the head of the family, she took her daughter with her private money and stolen back to her parents' home.
This is a big deal. In the feudal dynasty, let alone a concubine, even if the eldest wife of the main wife wants to Gui Ning, there are rules. Without the consent of the master, the woman in the world dares to return to her parents' home privately? This is really a big deal, not to mention that at that time it was the critical moment when Fan Ru tried his best to return to the Office of the Internal Affairs. If this was spread, wouldn't it give the competitors a verbal statement?
Hu Niu's uncle Fan Ru took his servants to Hu Niu's uncle's house to ask for someone. In Fan Ru's eyes, Hu Niu's uncle probably deserved to die, otherwise this woman would not be so brave. But unexpectedly, as soon as the brother and sister met, the uncle was in a good mood and his symptoms of typhoid fever were relieved by three points, and he was about to get better.
"A slut who is unfaithful and has violated the family law for escaping back to her parents' home without permission. Now he has added a crime of deception. You are lawless..." With Fan Ru's order, the servant who is like a tiger and wolf took Hu Niu's biological mother home.
That was when the spring was getting cold. Hu Niu's mother knelt in the cold yard for a whole day and night, and was frozen to death that night. What's even more shameful is that when Hu Niu asked her uncle for a doctor to treat her, she was rejected by Fan Ru.
"I cheated once and wanted to cheat our Fan family for the second time? That bastard is accustomed to pretending to be sick, and she will be cured in two days..." Hu Niu was almost crying and she was almost out of breath. "I... I secretly climbed over the wall and used the money I saved to hire a doctor. But... But when I brought the doctor, I couldn't even get in the door... In just one and a half months, my mother turned from typhoid fever to tuberculosis, coughing up blood all night, whimper..."
Xiao Letian felt cold when he heard this now. He didn't expect that the feudal family was so cruel. Isn't this a careless person's life? Xiao Letian hugged Hu Niu tightly, and she was trembling in her arms like a frightened little rabbit.
No wonder Hu Niu is so extroverted, even a little rebellious. It turns out there is a reason. Poor girl, you lack a sense of security.
"Okay, stop crying, let's go through the past. Now let's talk about the crisis in front of you. Why do you want to jump over the wall and escape?" Xiao Letian asked.
"It's not because of my damn uncle that he killed my mother, and now he hit me on the head again. He... he actually asked me to marry a sixty-year-old man as a concubine..." Hu Niu's face turned red with anger.
When Xiao Letian heard Hu Niu's introduction, he almost turned his back. Why is there such a shameless uncle in the world who treats his niece as a door bag to give it to someone.
It turned out that in order to restore the family's royal merchant status, Fan Ru actually got into the relationship with the head of the Qing Xiling Department of the Internal Affairs Office. When he learned that the old pervert, the second master Lian, was about to take the sixth concubine, the uncle thought of his rebellious niece.
When Fan Ru, who was in Beijing, learned that his brother had lost 110,000 yuan in cash, not only did he not get angry but slapped his thigh and shouted good opportunities. He was a good way to convince him to twist his brother.
Fan Ru wrote a long letter to his brother. When Fan Jian saw his own brother's shameless long letter, he fell ill suddenly, and he was so angry that he was just a little cold.
Not only Fan Ru and his daughter were angry, but now Xiao Letian was also angry. He was wandering around the house like a trapped beast. After a full quarter of an hour, he seemed to have made up his mind. "Xiao Hexin, come in quickly. Let's meet the shopkeeper Fan immediately, so that I can see your skills..."
Before Xiao Letian finished speaking, three people in night clothes walked into the box, and Xiao Hexin was the one who led it. "Don't worry, military advisor, I still have this kind of cleverness. We have sneaked in once just now, and there are no masters inside..."
