Jinghong Tower

Chapter 14 Knocked out teeth
"do not want!"

Yan struggled to sit up, but as soon as she raised her head, she felt dizzy, and she had to lie down again. She had suffered a heavy fall just now.

"No, don't smash it anymore, I'll give it, I'll give it!"

His tone was still cruel, but it had lost its vigor, like a dying chicken making its last stand.

Mr. He's hand holding the cup paused in the air, then put it down.

He actually had some small regrets.

Yan closed her eyes and said, "Call Shi Hong over and I'll talk to her."

Yan's heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.

What makes her heartache is not only the 2000 taels of silver she lost in vain, but also Mr. He's attitude towards her.

Mr. He looked at her coldly, then turned around and went out. There was no one in the yard. As soon as Mr. He opened the courtyard door, he saw Chang Fu and the three black girls following Chang Fu.

"Master, these corpse collectors are here, look." Seeing the livid-faced Master He, Changfu became even more cautious.

"Well, take them to the side hall and ask a maid to come in to entertain them. Changfu, go and call Shihong over."

Changfu quickly took the three black girls to the side hall and asked the maid to bring them tea, while he trotted to find Shihong.

After Mr. He finished his instructions, he went back to the study. With his status, he didn't have to meet those lowly corpse collectors in person.

The black girl didn't dare to drink the tea from the cup. She had heard people say that the bigger the family, the more troubles there would be, such as a nephew sleeping with his aunt, a brother-in-law and a brother-in-law having a good relationship, and a father-in-law and son-in-law. True love. In short, the black girl is very worried. After drinking this sip of tea, she and Huangdou Hongdou will lie on the bed of some maid and woman, and then they will be sent to the government.

At this time, the previous attendant named Chang Fu came in with a maid. The maid glanced at the three black girls, snorted contemptuously, put a box on the table, and said to Chang Fu : "Let them create a written document, one by one, and sign their names and fingerprints. If they can't even write their names, just sign them, lest they have no money to spend and come to us again to beg for food."

The black girl slapped the table: "Who do you think is begging for food?"

The maid snorted coldly: "I'm talking about you, you stinky beggars!"

Black girl: "Hey, if we are the beggars, you are the son of Zhu Bajie and his second aunt who had a wild boar sperm when they were a girl."

Huangdou Hongdou: "The pig cousin who can't remember the family tree!"

The maid was ashamed and annoyed. She stamped her feet and said to Changfu, "The money is here, I don't care!"

After saying that, the maid covered her face and ran away.

His fortune is as big as a bucket. The eldest man has gone to study books about saints and sages. The eldest wife is unwell. Now that Shi Hong has left, the whole mess will be handed over to him.

Fortunately, although Shihong was shy and thin-skinned, he still had a lot of silver. The cash plus banknotes, together with the five silver taels weighing two ounces, added up to 2000 taels, which was enough!
Changfu was about to get a pen and paper to ask them to write a written statement, but like a magic trick, the black girl took out the written note that they spent ten cents on yesterday.

Miss He said that the He family would definitely let them prepare written documents. In order to prevent them from foolishly falling into a legal lawsuit, Miss He asked them to prepare all the documents and written documents in advance.

Miss He also said that you can't fight an unprepared battle. Look, she was right in everything. When you see Miss He again, you must invite her to drink.

Yes, the black girl can see that Miss He is an alcoholic.

Changfu looked at the written evidence. There were not many words, but it was watertight.Handing over the documents in one hand and holding the silver in the other, the black girl walked in front holding the box, followed by Hongdou and Huangdou on the left and right. Their expressions were solemn, their steps were steady, and their eyes were firm and distant.

He Ran could not see this scene. Otherwise, she would have bowed and said: "I'm sorry."

Outside the door of He's house, the suona was still playing. The door of He's house finally opened, and the three black girls walked out.

Bai Gou immediately changed his tune. This time he was playing "Happy Encounter". He saw the box in Black Girl's hand, hahaha, money box!

"It's out, it's all beards and tails, all the arms and legs are broken, and the head is still there. Oh, what a blessing. These three children are really lucky, lucky!"

The black girl held the money box in her hands and bent down to salute, Huang Dou and Hongdou also saluted together: "Uncles, aunts, ladies, thanks to you today, we can get back our hard-earned money. We will remember your great kindness. In my heart, thank you!"

Everyone present: Yes, if there weren’t so many of them and so many pairs of eyes staring at them together, then the He family must have eaten these poor children without even spitting out the bones.

"Good boy, keep your hard-earned money safe, and don't let thieves steal it again."

"Yes, yes, you should still report it to the official. What if the He family regrets it, does one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes, and lets others come to steal money?"

"There is no point in reporting to an official. Officials protect each other, and the He family is also an official."

At this moment, a few words floated in the sky: "As long as the money is lost, it's the He family. Look for the He family, look for the He family!"

Everyone said together: "Isn't this nonsense? Zhending Mansion has always been peaceful. If someone is robbing money, it must have something to do with the He family."

Yes, that's the truth.

Chang Fu, who was following behind and heard the commotion, felt something in his heart, and immediately ran back to report to Mr. He. Mr. He was so angry that he wanted to hit someone again. Of course, he didn't want to hit Chang Fu, he just wanted to hit Yan. These bad things , it was all done by Yan.

"Find two guards and follow the corpse collectors."

Ever since Ding You came home, this was the most frustrating time for him.

What's the point of giving out a large sum of money and sending bodyguards to personally escort you?
Fortunately, the suona finally stopped playing. The onlookers dispersed reluctantly, and the He family finally let out a long sigh of relief.

The old lady also woke up. The first thing she did after waking up was to ask Yan to come and take care of her.

Yan gritted his teeth, endured the pain, and brought water and medicine to the old lady. The old lady slept for most of the day and was very energetic now. She wanted this and that, and she didn't let Yan go back until midnight.

When Yan returned to the house, she fell down on the bed. As for the fact that He Ran went out and came back after coming back, no one told her, and of course, she didn't ask.

He Ran was invited out for a drink by the black girl. When the He family's nursing staff arrived, the black girl noticed it, but they jumped out of the inn window without any trouble. The two nursing staff were still guarding downstairs. Still sitting.

They invited He Ran to the tavern again. The tavern was as deserted as last time, with only one table of them.

Seeing a green parrot standing on He Ran's shoulder, the black girl was curious: "Hey, did you buy this bird to eat?"

Before He Ran could answer, Xiao Ba immediately scolded: "You are a foodie, you know how to eat all day long, eat, eat, eat, eat as much as you want!"
