Chapter 946: 253 Private Interview

The next day, the genius was brightened, and Lily prepared a simple and low-key green carriage in Ermen according to the instructions of Nan Gongyu, and also ordered the accompanying people to be light and light.
Nangong Yu brought only three girls, Baihui Lily and thrush.
By the time they arrived at Ermen, Zhu Xing, wearing a simple cyan cotton dress, was already holding a steed by the carriage, and Nangong stunned them to see that it was another person.
"Zhou Dacheng, why are you here?" Lily blurted out in surprise.
It turned out that it was Zhou Dacheng who was sitting in front of the carriage, wearing a simple gray coat, and wearing a bucket hat.
"I've seen my concubine." Zhou Dacheng held his whip, gave a fist to Nangong, and then smiled boldly, "I've broken my uncle these days, and I'll go out with you to let go."
The so-called "flying wind" is aimed at prisoners! Suddenly Lily's face turned black, she said: You have to let yourself go, don't get involved with others!
For Zhou Dacheng's initiative to ask for help, Nangongzheng certainly had no opinion, so a carriage and a horse from Zhu Xing set off so lightly.
Liu Hezhuang is on the outskirts of Wangdu, only a dozen miles away from Wangdu. The air in this suburb really is much fresher. Although it is late autumn and the autumn wind is turbulent, many trees and shrubs have turned yellow, and the flowers have also thanked. But Lily and Thrush are still looking enthusiastic, and they whisper each other from time to time.
In less than an hour, the speed of the carriage gradually slowed down, only Zhu Xing's voice came from the outside: "Shi Zifei, the Liu Hezhuang is in front of you."
Anyway, it's a casual trip, and Nangong Ao was not too restrained, saying: "Stop, I want to get out of the car and walk."
After the maidservants helped her to get out of the carriage, her first thing was to warn Zhu Xing: "Now, you are not allowed to call me a concubine."
Zhu Xing froze, but hadn't responded yet, Lily and Thrush already responded with a smile: "Yes, Madam!"
In fact, Nangong Yan's childish appearance, if not combing the woman's hair, would look like a lady like a little girl, more like a girl from a large family.
Zhu Xing also got off the horse and followed Nangong and the three maids slowly, while Zhou Dacheng drove in the carriage to the rear.
Nangong Yu looked at the surrounding environment while walking.
According to Zhu Xing, more than ten years ago, after the south king of the old town laid down the river with the emperor, the emperor rewarded a bunch of gold and silver treasures. But the old town south king thought that the gold and silver treasures were dead. What is reliable, I randomly bought some Zhuangzi fields, thinking of passing them down from generation to generation.
It was only that the old king Nan of the old town went to southern Xinjiang very soon, and this Zhuangzi had little control, that is, he sent some books and filial respects to southern Xinjiang every year.
Although the king of the south of the old town is casual, the Zhuangzi that he bought is indeed in a very good location, close to the mountains and the water. In particular, there is a river beside this good field, and it seems that the water is rippling.
The thrush was cheerfully explaining how to bring river water to the field for irrigation during low rainfall, and how to clear the accumulated water during floods so as not to flood the good fields ... Nangong 玥 can not understand, but finally knows that for crop people, this The place couldn't be better.
The autumn field is a harvest scene. The endless paddy fields are paved with gold, and when a wind blows, a wave of golden waves is set off. Some farmers like farmers are harvesting crops in the fields.
At first glance, this Zhuangzi was unexpectedly prosperous.
Nangong Yu looked at the farmer not far away and said, "Let's go ahead and borrow some water to drink."
Nan Gongyu traveled, as her maid Baihui three are naturally well-prepared. Obviously, she just wanted to take the opportunity to talk to the tenants here.
Thrush took the initiative to ask: "Mrs. Shi ... you better let the slave go find a way first?"
Nangong nodded, and thrushed and trot away. Seeing her petite and thin, she ran quite fast. Lily suddenly said with emotion: "In fact, the roots and conditions of the thrush are also good, but unfortunately older, otherwise I will teach her to learn martial arts."
Zhou Dacheng, who was driving a carriage, carved a teaser at the back and said, "With your frizzy character, how dare you be a master?"
Lily is like a cat who has stepped on her tail like a little white hair, and was said to be frizzy by a person who is more frizzy than herself. That's ridiculous.
"It's as if you were a master!" Lily despised him with his eyes, saying that Zhou Dacheng was really speechless, and he had never confiscated his apprentice.
Tomorrow I will accept an apprentice! He thought secretly.
Several people walked all the way and said, Nangong Yan listened with a smile, and when they came to the small village next to Liuhezhuang, thrushed out from the inside in a hurry, and blushed and said, "World ... Madam, please follow the slaves. "
He left the carriage and groom Zhou Dacheng outside the village, and the rest entered the village.
Although it is daylight, the village is quiet, and the men are estimated to have gone to work. At a glance, only occasionally I see elderly people and children.
On the side of the way, the thrush whispered: "Madam, this village should not be rich." After a pause, she explained, "You see the houses here are all old wooden houses. If this farmer has some spare money, he would have been A big house of blue and black tiles has been built. "
Said Thrush, Nangong looked carefully and found out that it was really. At this glance, there is only a large house with blue bricks and black tiles on the farthest side of the mountain. The others are wooden houses for decades. If you look closely, you will find that these planks have appeared due to the corrosion of the years. Quite hollows and gaps.
The thrush led them into a house that was only two or three houses away from the village entrance. The owner was an old lady in her seventies, her teeth had been halved, her mouth shrank, and her face was covered with chrysanthemum-like wrinkles. .
Although the room was rude and tight, it was clean enough, and there was no man in the room, and the wife spoke reasonably, so the thrush picked the room.
The thrush should have been colored beforehand. The wife has prepared water for them and packed a plate of dates. The fresh red dates are full of grains. They look like little red lanterns. At first glance, the drop looks like it was just picked from the jujube tree outside.
After Nan Gongxi sat down, she apologized first and said, "Granny, bother you."
"Don't disturb, don't disturb." The wife said charmingly and restrainedly. She had never seen a girl like Nangongyu like a white jade, and she looked like a jade a Guanyin picture. "A nobleman like his wife came to rest at the wife's house, and the broken house of the wife also seemed to glow ..."
Lily laughed wryly, and said, "It's so bright."
"That's right, it's brilliant." The wife didn't even care to nod.
After eating a date, Nangong Zan praised, "Old woman, you are so sweet and crunchy."
"The date is planted by the wife himself. If the wife likes it, the wife will pick some for you."
"No need," Nangong said with a grin. "Old lady, sit down, let's talk."
The wife had already benefited from the thrush just now, knowing that Nangong Yu is a noble, this service is good, there must be a reward, so she sat down with a smile on her face.
Nangong Yan seemed to chat casually with her: "Grandma, I just watched you, the crops outside of you, look really good, it seems that you have another bumper year this year. Congratulations."
"There's nothing to congratulate." The wife pouted, not thinking, "It's not hers anyway ..." She stopped talking.
Thrush and Nangong Yan glanced at each other and felt that there was a play in it. Thrush deliberately said, "Even if you rent the land of the host family, after paying the rent, the harvest is yours, which is pretty good."
Nan Gongxi said, "It looks like a Zhuangzi in Huaibei, because this Huaibei has been flooded, and the whole year's harvest is gone. Hey, I ca n’t drive the tenants to death, so I have to avoid it. They rent for one year. "
The old lady sighed and said with emotion: "We farmers who are farming, that is, watching the sky to eat, but also those who have lost our wife, encounter a kind family like the wife, unlike us ..." She said half, but Ga However, it was really tickling to hear the lily and thrush.
The old lady looked at the gate of the courtyard and was convinced that there were no outsiders. Then she lowered her voice and said, "Ma'am, my wife will complain to you, our main house here is worse than the blood."
Blood 蛭? Zhu Xing and Bai Hui both frowned, thinking that the wife was too uncomfortable to speak.
Nangong Yu didn't take it seriously and asked, "How do you say?"
"This rent is going up every year!" The wife said, she hated it very much, gritted her teeth, "This year it has risen to 50%! What a use this harvest is, it is not handed over to our host, let us all drink northwest Wind. This year, I dare not get sick. Once I am sick, I will not be able to survive. A few days ago, the wife next door sold her elder daughter ... "The wife said sighing, saying: A distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. This neighbor ’s home is so sad that it makes people feel sad.
When I heard that the renter was 50%, Bai Hui, Lily and Thrush were all unbelievably squinting. Under normal circumstances, these 30% renters are already at their peak, let alone Liuhezhuang. The account book sent showed that the rent was only 20%, and that it hadn't risen in fifteen years since the king of the old town Nanzhuang bought Zhuangzi. Where did the remaining spread go? I can imagine! This Zhuangzi's steward is simply bold.
After thinking for a moment, Thrush deliberately said in an exaggerated tone: "50%? This is too unreasonable, right? Granny, can she be a steward to hide it?" She looked at Nangong and said, "Our wife before A zhuangzi in Jiangnan came out with a daring steward who just wrote mulberry silk as tussah silk to report the accounts. Fortunately, our chief manager went to Jiangnan to check the accounts last year.
"My wife is also the old tenant of this Zhuangzi. Two years ago, when the rent had just risen to 40%, we also guessed that the steward had deceived and concealed, and I was thinking about going to the main house to defend ... Who knows last year, The host sent a group of veterans ... "The wife sighed, and seemed hesitant again.
Lily looked out, and said, "Old woman, you have been soldiers here, it seems that your main family must be a big family."
"It's really a big family." The wife glanced outside cautiously and lowered her voice. "Our old master's house is the old king of the old town, who has passed away. Now the old master goes, it is said that Here it was passed to the current King of the South of Jinan. After that, the rent here has risen even more fierce. The old man also sent a disabled veteran last year, apparently to support them, as a result ... … It's just as bad as a pig! We are better than them. "
The wife's words were really shocking, and Zhu Xing had almost jumped. I don't know if it should be said of the wife's bad reputation, or whether she should be reprimanded for being lawless.
The wife was still afraid of their unbelief, and said, "My wife didn't tell me, this village knows that those veterans are arranged to go to the mountains around Houshan to reclaim wasteland. They can only rest for two hours a day. Two meals a day are mixed with chaff. Brown rice is almost like pig food. This person is iron rice and steel. If this person goes on, how can one support it? Two days ago, a veteran who lacked a leg could not support the illness. I asked the doctor to ask for a doctor, but he did n’t just invite the doctor. He also beat his son dry. Now the young man with no arms is still in a coma .... It depends on whether he is too big to survive. ! "
The old woman shook her head and sighed, whispering in her mouth: "Creating evil."
Nangong faced Shen Rushui. Although I knew that Zhuangzi had a problem, I did not expect that the steward's behavior was beyond her expectations. The Zhennan palace is far from the south of Xinjiang. For fifteen years, this Zhuangzi has been in charge of affairs, so that the more his courage is raised, the more the emperor looks.
But the top priority is not to find the manager to settle accounts, but ...
Nangong fixed his mind and asked, "Grandma, where do you know the sick veteran is now?"
The wife looked suspiciously at Nangong, wondering what her purpose was.
Seeing this, Nan Gongyi pointed to Bai Hui and explained: "Wife, my girl-in-law knows some medical skills, and it is rare for me to pass by here. I just wanted her to give a look to the sick veteran. . "
People believed in the Buddha more often, and the wife said with a palm of her hand that the Buddha praised Zanangong, and she told her where the veteran lived.
Nangong killed thrush and rewarded his wife, and then he left.
The old lady always sent people like Nangong to the door and watched them go deep into the village. She was about to retreat home, and a familiar figure flashed in the corner of her eyes. Did she say ...
She faintly guessed, and wanted to chase Nangong to stab them, but fearing to get in trouble, she finally hid back to her house.
At the same time, Bai Hui and Zhu Xing exchanged a wink, and then whispered in Nangong's ear, "Sir concubine, someone is following us."
"Let him follow." Nangong said indifferently, and continued to walk forward casually.
Soon they followed the dry mud road to the end of the village.
Thrush pointed at a broken house in front and said, "Mrs. Young, this should be the home of that veteran."
Looking at the broken house in front of them, everyone was locked tightly. Where is this house? I am afraid that the house in their house is even larger than this, surrounded by pieces of almost decayed wooden boards, and there is a huge gap between the wooden boards, I am afraid that even the cold wind in winter cannot stop them.
"Let's go and see." Nangong frowned and his face was very ugly.
Bai Hui, they rarely see Nangong Yan like this, they are all somber and solemn.
Thrush came to the forefront, while pushing open the crumbling wooden door, he shouted, "Anyone?"
As soon as the door was opened, a foul air came on, as if the smell of pig manure accumulated over the years had thoroughly penetrated every inch of the room.
Thrush could not help covering his nose, thinking: Where is this place where people live! This tube fact is hateful!
The room was dimly lit, not even a window, only the sun shining through the gate illuminated the inside. At a glance, they could see the young man who was too crude to know whether it was a door or a wooden bed. A young man with closed eyes was lying there. His right arm sleeve was empty, his face was swollen, and his body was bandaged randomly. A lot of cloth strips, faintly seeping bleeding thread under the cloth strip, looked shocking.
On the wooden bed, there was an old man with gray hair lying on his face. His face lay on the wooden bed and he could not see clearly, but at a glance he could see a piece of wood on his right leg, which was obviously used as a prosthesis.
Nangong Yu and others have long known that young people have been unconscious for a long time, but the movement of their push doors did not wake up the elderly, making them feel bad.
Nan Gongyun sank, and instructed Bai Hui to look at the young man, while he went to see the old man, and found that his forehead was hot.
not good!
Nangong Yu was about to order Lily to help her support the old man, but he did n’t want to say anything before he was caught by his left wrist. She looked up and realized that the unconscious young man had no idea when to open his eyes, and sat up half-heartedly. His face was swollen and pale, but his eyes were still bright like lightning, as if to pierce someone Similarly, his right arm slumped on Nangong's left wrist.
"Releasing the world ... Mrs. Young!" Lily was so angry that under her eyelids, Shi Zifei was attacked by someone. This is simply her shame and shame!
Bai Hui busy said: "We are here to help you, let's play ..."
She didn't have a chance to finish her words. Lily had slapped his palm on his neck. For a moment, the other person's eyes were like a wolf, staring at Lily fiercely, as if trying to tear her, but couldn't bear the body. On the blow, his eyes closed and fell down. Now that he had lost consciousness, he naturally loosened Nangong's wrist.
After all, Lily wasn't too fierce. She gave him a hand and did not let him fall on the wooden bed.
"lily……"
Bai Hui glared at her, but Lily was righteous: "To explain the monkey year to the wolf with a distrusting person, it is better that we heal them and prove everything with action." When he woke up, was he embarrassed? Looking for revenge?
What she said is clearly ridiculous, but it still has some truth. The eyes of this young man are indeed like wolves, not only vicious, but also full of extreme emotions of distrust.
Lily did and did, and rebuking her didn't help.
Nangong Yan busyly said, "Let's take this uncle to another bed first."
When she gave an order, Zhu Xing hugged the disabled old man horizontally, took out a cyan cotton cloth from his bag, and spread it on the bed that looked dirty.
This cotton cloth was worn by a thrush, in case Nangong was tired and could rest on the floor.
After Zhu Xing settled the old man, Nangong Yu explored him.
"Sir concubine, how is his condition?" Zhu Xing asked with some worry. For these veterans, the most affectionate people are probably him and Zhou Dacheng. After all, they are all people who have followed the old king of the south of the town.
Nangong said in a deep voice: "He is overworked and sick, which leads to high fever and unconsciousness. First of all, he must first help him to get rid of the fever, and then he will recuperate." She thought about it and ordered Zhu Xing, "Zhu Xing, there are some medicines in the rightmost drawer in my carriage, but also some medicinal wine and clean cotton. You can get them."
Zhu Xing hesitated for a moment, thinking that Bai Hui and Lily were both here. There should be no problem, so he was ordered to go.
Nan Gongyu first instructed the thrush to wet a white towel and apply it coldly to the old man's forehead. Then she took out her silver needle bag and tied his acupuncture points of Yin Yin, Fu Hua, San Yin Jiao, Yongquan, etc. to relieve him of fever.
Followed her to see the young man again: "Bai Hui, how is his condition?"
Bai Hui removed the strips of the young people one by one, and frowned while directing Lily to clean the wound. "Madam, his right leg is broken." She paused and said with some concern, "Just Leave it to the slaves. "
Nangong Rong did not agree immediately, but first tested the school: "Bai Hui, how to deal with the fracture?"
Bai Hui replied without hesitation: "After clearing the wound and supporting the bones, the board is fixed."
Nangong Ai nodded with satisfaction, which was allowed.
So Bai Hui came to deal with, Lily assisted, and she just supervised.
Bai Hui first pulled a piece of cotton cloth into a cloth strip, and fixed the board clamped to the young man's leg with the cloth strip. At the same time, Lily also treated the other wounds on his body. Lily was a warrior, so Carrying Jin Jingchen's gold sore medicine with him, painted his face with a yellow-green intersection.
At this moment, a vague moan came from the side, and thrush was exclaimed, "Uncle, are you awake? Do you think it is OK?"
The old man opened his eyes slowly, his eyes seemed a little cloudy, and he couldn't focus.
Nangong Nian returned to his bed, leaned gently and said, "Can you hear me?"
The other person nodded hard.
Nangong Yan continued: "I just gave you a needle. Don't move around first. I'll close the needle for you." She said that she had taken out those silver needles skillfully.
"Alan! Alan ..." the old man said eagerly, trying to get up.
Nangong Ai motioned for a thrush to lift him, while comforting him: "Don't worry, Alan is fine, my niece is already treating him."
The old man turned around and saw Bai Hui bandaging Alan. She finally let out a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you Madam for helping. This time, if it wasn't for Madam, our father and son ..." He said his eyes were already wet, "If A In case Lan has a problem, I will never be able to forgive myself. If it were not for me, Alan would not have come to Wangdu ... "Speaking of this, he was choking.
"Everything will be okay." Nangong said softly to soothe his emotions.
The old man took a deep breath and tried to stabilize his emotions, but soon he thought of something and said, "Mrs., you should leave here quickly. If this person finds out and tells the steward, I'm afraid I'm looking for your trouble."
Nangong Yu smiled rather than laughed. She couldn't wait for anything to come to trouble.
Thrush came out and said, "Uncle, it's okay. We young men are not afraid of what to do."
The old man's eyebrows were locked tightly, and he hated, "Ma'am, you don't know who this Zhuangzi's main house is. This cattle steward is not terrible. The terrible person is the person behind him. If you stay here, I am afraid that there will be people Rude to you. "
Thrush threw up his chest and smiled indifferently: "Why don't we know, isn't the main house of this Zhuangzi the King of Zhennan?"
The old man froze, looked at the thrush unexpectedly, and looked at Nangong again. Although she was not particularly luxurious, she looked like an ordinary rich man regardless of his appearance and manners. ? Is this a noble person who can help them decide?
The old man groaned for a moment and said, "Yes, it is the fierce and fierce King Zhennan King Xiao Yi!" He said with his teeth gritted, and the intense hatred shot in his eyes instantly seemed as if he could not eat his flesh and drink his blood !!
The thrush frowned slightly, and what Nangong was about to say was stopped by a glance at Nangong.
"Uncle, can you tell me what's going on?" Nangong Yan asked.
The old man's eyes sank and hesitated for a while, but he also felt that there was nothing to worry about, and he simply said, "My name is Chu David. This is a relative of the old King Nan who has died in the old town. Ten years ago I lost my right calf in a battle, and I retired from it. The old Lord took care of our old, weak, and sick relatives when he was alive, but after the current Zhennan king inherits the throne, except for the meager annual The pension is gone, and everyone's life is very difficult. "
"Last year, when Grandpa Shi sent people to meet us veterans in South Xinjiang, everyone was very happy. I felt that Grandpa Shi had quite the style of King Nan of the old town, and he was willing to support us as waste. Originally, my son Alan was not It meets the requirements of the grandfather of the world, but he didn't want me to come to the capital alone, so he came, and planned to find a job near the capital of the capital to support himself ... but none of us thought that the grandfather of the world was a wolf-hearted man, he If you want a good reputation, but you don't want to support us as a disabled person, simply treat our unrelated and veteran soldiers as free labor and work for him! "
The old man was so angry that his forehead was blue and bulging. He looked at the unconscious Alan, and then said, "I was so old-fashioned that I would be gone without it. When I believe the wrong person, anyway, the old town Nan Wang saved my life then, and I should pay him back, but ... "He took a deep breath and said angrily," Alan is innocent! "His hands clenched my fists, shaking slightly. .
At this time, Bai Hui and Lily finally tossed Alan, who was injured.
Lily looked at the empty medicine bottle and muttered angrily: "It's really cheap for you." After returning home, she must ask the concubine to pay her two bottles.
She was trying to put away the empty bottle, but she didn't want to grab her with one hand. The speed was too fast, and she had a side look. She was really caught by the other side.
This guy just woke up so quickly? Is your strength so small?
Lily was thinking, and felt the painful pain coming from her wrist, and she almost suspected that this guy had exerted all his strength.
"Hello! Is that how you treat life-saving benefactors?" Lily glared at him angrily, and the abominable guy lost her face twice a day.
The old man busied and said, "Alan, let go of this girl. They are here to help us ..."
Alan hesitated for a moment, and wanted to say that it was just that they stunned themselves, but after seeing the old man who was much better, she finally let go of Lily's hand.
Lily rubbed her wrist and felt bruises on her wrist. She secretly vowed to be at odds with this annoying guy!
Just then, there was a mess of footsteps and the sound of dialogue from afar:
"It's over there!"
"Go! Check it out!"
Lily's eyes suddenly turned on, her knuckles moved, and she thought: finally here! If she finds Alan to settle accounts now, she will be said to have bullied her victim. Don't blame her for asking her what to do. Today, she must teach this group of guys who corrupt the reputation of the grandson!
"Boom!"
Someone kicked the crumbling wooden door heavily, followed a stout man in a robe and walked in with four tall men.
