Chapter 247

Within two days, news spread overwhelmingly around Liu'er Lane—it was said that Miss Ji's Third Household was about to marry Master Sakata of the Imperial College to fill in the house.

Zhang Dayong brought home a fish and two pig bones from outside. His son's hands and feet were all crippled. They all felt stabbed... gritted their teeth, walked over to the two chattering gangsters and asked:

"Brother, where did you hear that?"

No wonder he was skeptical, after all, how did these idlers know about the Hou Mansion?The two of them knew Zhang Dayong, they were all neighbors in Siye, they didn't see each other when they looked up, and one of them said:
"My cousin is working in the Hou's mansion, and he is a small steward of the affairs department. Recently, the Hou's mansion is buying a dowry. It is said that the Ji family has invested a lot of money this time. It is like an upside-down post. The girl of Huang Huaer gave it to others The house filling is done in such a grand manner, can others not talk about it? Those who don’t know may think that the Ji family owes the Tian family debt.”

Hearing this, Zhang Dayong couldn't bear it any longer. Gritting his teeth, he turned around and went back to his alley. He rushed into the yard with his head buried, and threw the fish and pig bones in his hand on the table. His wife, Mrs. Wang, came over, took the fish and said:

"Where did the evil fire come from? Who provoked you?"

Ever since the youngest son got angry, the head of the family's temper has been getting worse day by day, and Wang is also worried that he has another quarrel with others outside.

When Zhang Dayong heard Wang's question, he became even angrier, and said through gritted teeth:
"We've been fooled! That bastard Tian Fuzhou promised to be our witness, but you know he's about to marry a girl from the Ji family to fill in the house, and the Ji family flattered him to death. I'm afraid people will look down on you for making petty profits! Joining hands with the Ji family, this is trying to calm things down and mess with us instead!"

At the beginning, the youngest son was doing well in Bailu Academy, but he didn't expect to be beaten by that bastard of Ji's family. Zhang Dayong couldn't bear this tone, so he planned to sue Ji Yu at the Imperial College, let him be expelled from school, and then go to Shun Tianfu sues him!But I didn't expect Tian Fuzhou to be double-faced and three-faced. One side took him 300 taels of silver, and the other side was about to marry the daughter of the Ji family. This is not bad!
"What?" Mrs. Wang was also extremely shocked. She came over and said, "You heard me right? This matter must have been done secretly. How did you know about it?"

Zhang Dayong pointed to the outside, and said: "Zhao Wuna's idle help for his cousin is the small steward of the Pingyang Marquis Mansion. Recently, he is preparing a dowry for the young lady in the mansion! Is this something wrong? It's a good one." Miss, why are you willing to fill in the house for Tian Fuzhou, who is over 60 years old? There are so many dowries, if there is a ghost in your heart, what is it?"

Mrs. Wang seemed to have thought of the twists and turns, and suddenly her legs softened and she sat on the chair, screaming: "Oh, my poor son! This, this, this, this, there is no place to reason. no?"

Zhang Dayong scolded her and was about to go outside, but Mrs. Wang stopped him and said:
"Boss, you can't be angry, our eldest son and second son are also in the academy, if you and Tian Fuzhou get into a fight, what will they do!"

Zhang Dayong paused and said:
"But I can't swallow this breath! If scholars are all duplicitous like Tian Fuzhou, I'd rather let my son stop studying! It's just to ruin the face of our ancestors!"

After saying this, Zhang Dayong pushed his wife away, ignored his immobile son shouting, took the knife that Chengmen Lang carried with him, and rushed out, so angry that he couldn't even shout back!

Tian Fuzhou is a tall and thin old man with a bookish look. When he was young, he was considered refined. He liked to wear bright colors in his clothes, making people look younger. His hair was dyed black, and he wore a scholar's crown. He looked like a gentleman, but who knew that such a person would actually have such dirty thoughts about a teenage girl.

He also knew that this idea should not be expressed prematurely, but the temptation of the little girl Shui Lingling was too great, and the Ji family was willing to give up the money, so he was not satisfied. He planned to fool the Zhang family first, and then Slowly persuade, using the future of his other two sons as guarantee, Zhang Dayong can't lose his eldest son and second son for the sake of a younger son, so Ueda Fuzhou is still very sure about this matter.

But the premise is that the relationship between him and the Ji family can't be exposed too early, otherwise everything will fail.So after agreeing to the Ji family, he secretly found a matchmaker and exchanged Geng Tie. Now, whenever he thinks of that delicate little beauty, his steps will be brisk, and he can't wait to marry her into the mansion right now!
Just as she was about to get into the sedan chair, someone suddenly jumped out from the side, not a fist, but a steel knife, and slashed at her face.
