Chapter 91 The Sturdy Woman ([-])

The more Xiao Nan thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

Zhang San is a rascal in the market, but he is not a fool without eyesight.

On the contrary, Zhang San has been in the neighborhood all year round, and has contacts with yamen, rangers, and ordinary people. He can control his crimes within a certain range. idlers.

Besides, what is the capital city? At the foot of the emperor, the streets are full of dignitaries and relatives.

If a person accidentally bumps into someone who cannot be offended, even if he has Buddha and Guanyin tattooed all over his body, the people in the yamen will beat him up accordingly, and maybe they will give him a 'one and one hundred'.

If Zhang San didn't know the master behind Hou Wendong, it's easy to explain.

But people like him always investigate their opponents before making a move, and it's no secret that Hou Wendong is a member of the Hedong Liu family. Anyone who asks in the farm will know.

It is doubtful that Zhang San knew Hou Wendong's background, but deliberately plotted against him.

Could it be that Zhang San's actions were secretly instructed by someone?

When Madam Dong heard Xiao Nan's words, she showed an indignant expression, and said, "Why don't you know? Guan Hou is always considerate in his work. Before he had an affair with Zhang San, he had someone tell Zhang San quietly that this farm was the Liu Family of Hedong. The woman's property, and now this little lady is the wife of Mr. Cui Liulang... As a result, Zhang San simply ignored it."

Xiao Nan frowned slightly, she really guessed right, Zhang San was indeed instigated by someone, but she didn't know if this person was the enemy of the Liu family or the Cui family.

Mrs. Dong didn't see Xiao Nan's expression, she still said angrily: "Hou Erlang saw that his elder brother and his future sister-in-law's family were being pushed to the limit. In a moment of anger, he took the hatchet for chopping wood at home and asked Zhang San about it. After the residence, he killed the past.

Alas, Zhang San is really a disaster for thousands of years. If he was himself, he would definitely not be Erlang's opponent. Coincidentally, that day he invited a group of friends to drink in a wine shop, and he happened to meet Erlang when he came back. "

Mrs. Dong shook her head, and said with some regret: "In the end, Erlang was surrounded by those people and beat him up. In the chaos, Erlang accidentally injured several people. He was discovered by Marquis Wu who was patrolling the street, and they sent them to the Yamen together. Zhang San and his gang accused Erlang of intentionally killing people in court, and Erlang also admitted that he came to seek revenge from Zhang San... In this way, Erlang was put in prison."

Xiao Nan expressed his understanding for this. Although people nowadays are tough, they have not developed to the point where they can recklessly hack people with knives on the streets of the capital.The yamen did not deliberately target Hou Wuliang when they pronounced the sentence.

Speaking of this, Mrs. Dong suddenly became agitated, and there was a faint taste of the death of a rabbit and a fox: "When Guanshi saw that something had happened, he hurried to the county government office to take care of it, and then found out that the current Wannian County is a good friend of the master Cui Liulang. , so I went to ask Mr. Liulang and the lady, not to ask the yamen to bend the law for personal gain, so that I could pronounce a sentence according to the circumstances. The result—”

Ok?how?Could it be that Xiao Liushi refused?
Xiao Nan nodded secretly, the remnant memory of the deity told her that Mrs. Xiao Liu was indeed a relatively selfish person.

As for Cui Liulang, he proclaimed himself an elegant literati, and hung out with a group of "celebrities" in restaurants and teaching workshops every day, and called him "chic" and "chic".

Xiao Nan had seen a lot of people like him in his previous life. To put it bluntly, he was a sour literati.On the surface, she pretends to be sanctimonious, chic and suave, but on the inside, she is a prostitute and the master of the chastity archway.

Cui Liu and his wife, one is selfish and the other is hypocrisy. When encountering something like Hou Wendong, it would be nice if they don't rush to get rid of it. How can they help?
Maybe the sixth uncle of "Gao Jie" would put on a look of contempt for being with "idle people", as if hearing Hou Wendong mention this term, he felt it was a kind of humiliation.

Just as Xiao Nan expected, the Xiaoliu clan did not intercede for the Hou brothers.

In Xiaoliu's opinion, Hou Wendong's ability is indeed not weak, but his younger brother is a troublemaker, and now he dares to kill people in the street, who can guarantee that he will not make any big troubles in the future?

On one side is the idler brother who is in charge, and on the other is the reputation of her husband, Xiao Liushi chose the latter without hesitation.

This is also the reason why she didn't take Hou Wendong away when she exchanged Zhuangzi - it was common sense that she would not help Hou Wendong, and it was not impossible for the other party to hold grudges against her.Xiaoliu will never leave anyone who is dissatisfied with herself, or even resents her.

Mrs. Dong said with concern: "Well, in the end, it was Hou Guanshi who ran to beg Zhang San, begged for mercy, and pleaded guilty, and finally signed an IOU of [-] yuan, which made Zhang San withdraw the lawsuit. ...Erlang was beaten twenty sticks by the yamen, and then he was released."

Speaking of this, the story came to an end. Madam Dong said to Xiao Nan quite sincerely: "Madam, although Erlang has a bad reputation, he is indeed not a bad person, and he is good at serving those cats and dogs. If you need to train animals You might as well give him a chance, and at least let him supplement the family." The Hou family is still burdened with a huge debt of one thousand guan.

After Xiao Nan heard this, he thought of another layer—Hou Wendong himself was burdened with thousands of debts, and he didn't embezzle a single cent of the farm. His character is really good.

In addition, Hou Erlang has gained a reputation as a "idleman" and caused minor troubles from time to time. Hou Wendong would rather suffer himself than abandon this younger brother, which shows that he is a person who attaches great importance to emotions.

On the whole, this person is really a good steward.

After Xiao Nan dismissed Mrs. Dong, she thought about it for a long time in the main hall, watching the sun go west, and then she sent someone to call Hou Wendong again.

When meeting someone, Xiao Nan didn't make any detours, and asked straight to the point: "I'm sure you know about my relationship with Mrs. Cui Liu of Qinrenfang. I don't know what Guanshi Hou thinks?"

Hou Wendong was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Xiao Nan to be so direct, he paused for a while, and then said in a deep voice: "When re-signing the contract, Mr. Wang Dalang made it clear to someone. At that time, someone also promised Mr. Wang Dalang that Although a certain person is not talented, he is a person who knows his duty. In the past, he was the steward of Mrs. Cui Liu, so he would do his best to help her with errands; now he is following your wife, the county mistress, so he will not have any wrong thoughts. Also, no According to your instructions, I will not disclose your identity and your relationship with this farm to anyone."

On this point, Xiao Nan believes that today, she walked around the farm and met a few servants and tenant farmers. They didn't know their identities, it should be that Hou Wendong never leaked the news.

Slightly raising his eyebrows, Xiao Nan said: "Okay, I trust you, and I hope you will not disappoint my trust. By the way, who is taking care of the ten forest dogs and that lynx sent by Mr. Wang Dalang these days?" ?”

Xiao Nan has already decided to use Hou Wuliang, but today she just asked Hou Guanshi, Hou Guanshi said that he didn't know, presumably he was also worried that if he recommended his younger brother, she would feel dissatisfied after knowing Hou Erlang's famous reputation.Maybe it was because he was worried that his younger brother would mess up his errand, because she was unhappy... But no matter what the reason, Xiao Nan saved him this face, so he didn't expose it face to face.

It is also a good way to save the country with curves.

Hou Guanshi raised his head, carefully glanced at the shadowy figure behind the screen, and said softly: "Yes, it is Hou Wuliang, that is, the younger brother of a certain person."

Xiao Nan nodded, "Well, he took good care of them. I can't take them home yet, so I put them on the Zhuangzi first, and Hou Wuliang will continue to domesticate them. As for the wages, just follow Mrs. Dong's."

When Hou Guanshi heard this, he was overjoyed, he hurriedly lowered his head, touched the ground with his hands, gave a deep salute, and said: "Thank you, Madam, Madam, you can rest assured, Madam, I will definitely let him work well, and I will never disappoint Madam's trust. "

Yes, it is trust.

Xiao Nan asked the cook about his family affairs, and Hou Wendong already knew about it.

Originally, he thought that his younger brother's reputation was not good. Even though the second younger brother's dog training skills are indeed very high, it is very likely that he will be rejected by the new owner, just like the previous owner - well, the Liu family is the head of their Hou family, My Aye, Aweng, and great-grandfather are all in the Liu family. Although they have left the family, the affiliation relationship cannot be changed by a contract.

But Xiaoliu's ruthlessness tore apart Hou Wendong's deep affection for the master's family.

From the moment he was 'invited' out of Cui's Hotel, Hou Wendong secretly swore that such a host family was not worthy of his allegiance.

But Xiao Nanming knew that his younger brother was an idler, so he was still willing to hire him, and the salary was so high, which really surprised Hou Wendong.

However, the accident was still to come, Xiao Nan continued: "In addition, I have ordered someone to change the household registration of your Hou family to the Xiao family. From now on, you are no longer the descendants of the Liu family, but I belong to the Xiao family. Of course, your status as commoners remains unchanged."

Hou Wendong suddenly raised his head, fixedly looking at the woman behind the screen.

Although separated by the screen, Xiao Nan could still feel the burning gaze of the other party. She smiled slightly and said, "I've always been suspicious of people not using it. If I decide to use it, it will also wipe out all unstable factors."

According to the current laws and regulations, although Buqu can be expelled from his nationality, his relationship with the master's family cannot be completely severed. Once the old owner sues him for 'rebelling against the master', the part will still be charged with crimes.

A few days ago, the old lady borrowed this decree and sent Feng Laojiu's father and daughter to prison.

Three days ago, Feng Laojiu's father and mother went to Cui's house to plead guilty, begging the old lady to do her best.

Xiao Nan decided to use Hou Wendong, so he would not leave such an excuse.

So, after taking a nap, she asked Honghua to take her name card and go to Wannian County to help the Hou brothers get a new household registration, indicating that they were the songs donated by the Liu family to the Xiao family.

Of course, if someone else went through such a procedure, it would probably be a little troublesome.

But who is Xiao Nan? This deity is a famous shrew in the capital.

All kinds of rumors about how wanton, flamboyant, and tough Xiao Nan was spread widely, even though she disappeared for a few months, those stories are still being circulated among the people...
