Chapter 8 The Aggrieved Li Mazi
Boss Cao was originally an outsider. He traveled all over the world in the early years, learned a lot of skills and accumulated a lot of savings in the past few decades.

Then I came to Yong'an, built a small dock with a few friends, made some money, and started some small businesses at the same time.

Among them, the house in an alley of Yangzi Lane on West Street is in his name, and he originally planned to open a shop for business.

However, the flow of people is relatively small, and it is not very useful, so Boss Cao rented it out as a guest room.

Li Mazi's parents died since he was a child, and Boss Cao also took care of his dead sister's face, so he entrusted Yangzi Lane to take care of the rent collection.

Who knew that Li Mazi had one thing on the outside and another on the back.

Boss Cao went on a long trip on business, and Li Mazi dared to raise the rent indiscriminately without telling him.

After deducting the part that should be handed over, the rest was kept in his own pocket. Needless to say, Li Mazi must have made a lot of money during his absence.

At first when the young man came to tell me this, I didn't believe it. It wasn't until I questioned the two thugs who often followed Li Mazi that I learned the truth.

Boss Cao himself was born in a poor family, and he has worked hard and worked hard for more than half of his life to achieve his current achievements.

Although he is a businessman, he has never ignorant of his conscience to make black-hearted money!

"Uncle, uncle, nephew, I know I'm wrong, I'm greedy, I shouldn't have kept it from you."

Paper can't contain fire, Li Mazi knew that the matter had been exposed, but he didn't want to lose the opportunity to do things with Boss Cao, so he could only keep slapping himself in the face and apologizing.

"Uncle, I was fascinated by ghosts for a while, so I did such a shameful thing. Uncle, I promise, I promise, I will never do it again in the future, uncle, you must forgive me!"

"Hmph!" Boss Cao snorted coldly, but seeing that Li Mazi was bleeding himself, he was still a little soft-hearted after all, and didn't say anything to tell him to get out.

"The newly appointed magistrate Yin was transferred from Jinling. I advise you to keep your tail between your legs and don't make any more fools out of me!"

"Thank you uncle, thank you uncle, no more, no more, I promise never again." Li Mazi quickly expressed his opinion when he saw that Boss Cao was a little relieved.

"You'd better remember what you said today!" Boss Cao tossed off his robe, not wanting to pay attention to Li Mazi at all, and stepped across the threshold with his foot.

After waiting until Boss Cao was completely gone, Li Mazi got up from the ground and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

It was obvious that he was the one who was injured, but that crippled man dared to play tricks on me behind his back.

The last time I went to collect the rent by myself, I didn't get any benefits at all. Not to mention being drenched in water by that dead woman, I also felt itchy all over for no reason, which was extremely uncomfortable.

I went to the doctor to prescribe medicine, but the doctor couldn't explain why, so I could only suffer in vain. Fortunately, I only itch for a day and a night, but there were still many places on my body that were torn off by him, and pustules appeared.

The wounds all over his body were not healed yet, but a dead cripple suddenly came to the door, involuntarily raised his crutches and beat him violently, the strikes were so fast and ruthless that Li Mazi had no time to dodge.

It's really unreasonable to add a new injury before the old injury is healed.

However, seeing that Boss Cao was really angry this time, Li Mazi didn't dare to make mistakes, so he could only keep this account in his heart.

Wait!One day, I'm going to make it hard for you all.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-" the day dawns, the people that live on Yang Zi alley wakes up early in the morning.

The women were busy going to the market to buy vegetables, while the men went to the wharf to carry big bags or work as laborers for wealthy families.

A narrow alley, people come and go, come and go.

When Jiang Jiu woke up, Song Yuanming had already finished his breakfast and was about to leave.

As soon as Jiang Jiu saw him, he remembered what happened last night. Song Yuanming didn't have any special reaction, and he was still the same as before, lukewarm to Jiang Jiu.

"Second brother, where is your crutch? Why did you change it?"

Song Yuanjun noticed that Song Yuanming was not using the original crutch in his hand, but a wooden stick for support.

"It's been a long time, it's broken." Song Yuanming said calmly.

Except for Jiang Jiu and Song Xinru, the rest of the family didn't know about what happened last night. Song Yuanming himself didn't intend to tell them, and told Song Xinru not to tell it.

Song Yuanjun has always believed in his second brother's words, never doubted it, and only regarded it as true.

Jiang Jiu rolled his eyes in his heart, this Song Yuanming not only can pretend, but also has first-rate ability to lie and deceive children.

Without blushing or beating heart, without feeling guilty at all, he deserves to be the number one treacherous official in the future.

Jiang Jiu glanced at it, but didn't pierce it. He scooped up a bowl of porridge on the stove and served it with a steamed bun.

Of the Ganoderma lucidum collected from the mountain before, except for the one that opened into the space, there was one remaining. Jiang Jiu put it in a wooden basin alone, scooped a bowl of clear water, and kept it fresh with water.

After I finished my meal, I took a plant to try the price first.

Song Xinru peeled the chestnuts picked up yesterday at home. The chestnut skins were a bit hard. Song Yuanjun helped, and Jiang Jiu took Xiaobao to the market together.

Jiang Jiu held Xiao Bao in one hand and the basket in the other. Just as he walked out of the alley, a carriage drove towards him quickly. Jiang Jiu quickly pulled Xiao Bao back.

The carriage was running fast, and a cloud of dust was raised, almost hitting pedestrians on the road.

Jiang Jiu fanned the dust with his hands, and said, "Xiaobao, when we get to the street in a while, there are many people, you must hold on to your second sister-in-law."

"Yeah." Xiao Bao nodded obediently, with a round bun face, he said solemnly, "Tighten it, don't let go."

"So obedient!" Jiang Jiu smiled and rubbed Xiaobao's little face, much better than that Song Yuanming who only kept a straight face all day long.

Xiaobao was very happy in his heart, the second sister-in-law was always fierce in the past, but now the second sister-in-law is so kind, she even praised herself!
I must behave well to make my second sister-in-law like me more.

The two walked to the door of a medicine hall, and Jiang Jiu looked up, and there were four gold-painted characters "Renji Medicine Hall" on it.

Seeing someone inside, Jiang Jiu dragged Xiao Bao to the side of the counter and asked, "Shopkeeper, do you accept medicinal materials here?"

A clerk was crouching on a chair to raise his bones. When he heard someone coming in, he opened his eyes, glanced up and down at Jiang Jiu and the two of them, and had a prejudice in his heart.

The usual clothes Jiang Jiu and Xiao Bao wore were not of high-quality material, and they had a few patches on them, but they were all washed clean and tidy.

Seeing the guy's attitude, Jiang Jiu didn't want to talk to him, pulled Xiao Bao, turned around and was about to leave.

"Hey, this guest, please wait a moment."
