Chapter 895 Countermeasures
Mr. Jia looked at Hu Niu and was speechless, but he waved his hand and ordered: "Captain Liu, they are clearly in the same group as the thief. Take them all back to the yamen and wait for my father to personally take them off.
Bar!"
"We don't know her at all! Who made you look like a bad person and she shouted for help? Of course I helped her!" Hu Niu explained immediately and pointed out the reason.
Hu Niu has a righteous and pure heart, but she doesn't know if it's true that the truth is born from the heart. Her tone, behavior and expression can give her a sense of convincing.
Now that Mr. Jia has explained this, even though Mr. Jia believes it a little bit, he knows that she is really brave. But Mr. Jia snorted coldly, as if he doesn't plan to give up like this, and still wants to take Captain Liu to Hu Niu to prison.
.
Captain Liu is a smart person, and immediately lowered his voice and said, "Young Master Jia, this matter is probably inappropriate! You should see that this girl cannot be in the same group as a thief, and she is afraid that her origin will not be
Normal! Next year is the year of Beijing inspection. At this critical moment, you can’t cause trouble for Lord Jia!”
Mr. Jia was originally a fearless person and wanted to teach Hu Niu a lesson, but Captain Liu's words forced him to worry about it, after all, it was related to his father's future.
Although he had concerns, he still said unreasonably: "Now because of your obstruction, the stinky woman who stole my money was gone. You have to compensate me for my losses!"
"Do you want me to chase her back?" Mu Ying volunteered.
Hu Niu shook her head and asked in compromise: "How much did she steal you?"
"One hundred taels!" Mr. Jia's mouth raised slightly, and the lion immediately spoke.
This was actually a small trick of him, deliberately offering such a high price. If this girl compensated him, the matter would be settled, but if this girl dared to resist, then he would have sufficient reason to put them in jail.
"How could it be so much!" Hu Niu's bottom line was no more than ten taels, but one hundred taels was far beyond the range that she could bear in her psychology, and how could that woman run so easily with one hundred taels in her arms.
.
this……
Captain Liu also showed a look of dismay on his face. He turned his head helplessly to look at Mr. Jia next to him. He found that Mr. Jia offered such an outrageous price, which was obviously going to cause trouble!
"Give him compensation!"
But at this moment, a faint voice came.
Everyone looked at him, but saw a young scholar appearing here, looking calm and composed.
Hu Niu knew who it was at the first time, and turned her head to look at her brother who suddenly appeared. Although she did not protest, she looked depressed with her lips.
Huh?
Captain Zhang looked at Lin Weiran who suddenly appeared, but couldn't help but take a few more glances, as if he could see some of his reputation.
Lin Weiran's will was conveyed, so naturally someone paid the money to Mr. Jia.
One hundred taels of silver are certainly not a small amount for many people. But for Lin Weiran now, it is undoubtedly just a small number.
Mr. Jia saw Lin Weiran appearing, and at first felt an invisible pressure, but when he watched him pay money and take Hu Niu away, he murmured: "It's just a juren who goes to Beijing to take the exam. What's the point of being proud of?
”
"This person doesn't look like a juren taking the exam, and his identity is probably not ordinary!" Captain Liu looked at the back, especially when the other party walked towards the post station, and said with certainty.
Mr. Jia sneered and said arrogantly: "How extraordinary is it? Can it be compared with me?" After saying this, he raised his chin and laughed a few times.
Captain Liu looked at the proud Mr. Jia, but sighed secretly in his heart. The young master of Xiaoxiaozhou Tongzhi dared to be so arrogant. At the feet of this emperor, he was clearly looking for death.
Lin Weiran led the girl Hu Niu towards the station. Seeing the girl's depressed look, she said in a preaching tone: "I've known to meddle in other people's business all day long. Have you taught me a lesson this time?"
The reason why I chose to compromise is that I want this wild girl to taste "hardship". Let her learn a lesson. Don't jump out and take action with justice every time I see something that bullies the weak.
"Oh! Someone shouted for help, I must stand up!" Hu Niu undoubtedly failed Lin Junran's painstaking efforts, but retorted without repentance.
Before Lin Junran could preach, Hu Niu complained in turn: "Brother, why did you pay so much money to that bad guy? I was a little unhappy!"
"You are not happy, so how do you want me to deal with this matter?" Lin Weiran was amused and asked in turn.
"Of course I'm just trying to reason with him! If it doesn't work, you can show your identity and see if he dares to speak to us lions!" Hu Niu said for granted, as if she felt that her brother had a bad gaze and his tone seemed to be in a good way.
He calmed down and said, "We can pay a little. I did have a small mistake. If I pay the money, he will not look for that woman again, but he can't pay him so much one hundred taels!"
Lin Weiran shook his head helplessly and pinched Hu Niu's face.
Not to mention, with their current wealth, one hundred taels is not money at all, and it does not require such a stingy attitude. If he reveals his identity at this time, he will most likely be used by someone, so that he can end up with his power to suppress others.
bad reputation.
He clearly could settle the small matter that could be done with a hundred taels, but he insisted on using such a foolish method. He believed that he could not afford to lose his face.
The most important thing is that if he is really unwilling to give up, he wants to teach this young master Jia a lesson. After he takes office, he has some means to deal with the son of this subordinate official, and he doesn't need to take action now.
While the two of them were talking, they had already arrived at Tongzhou Station.
Although the post station is all about welcoming and sending away, there are also differences between high and low. Tongzhou is at the foot of the emperor, and countless nobles come to Beijing, and usually settle in Tongzhou post station.
Lin Weiran is now a fourth-rank official in the court, and has changed from a local official to a Beijing official. Naturally, he has the right to enjoy the benefits of such officials, and he often lives in inns along the way.
Of course, he also saw the various disadvantages of the post station. Due to the greed of officials and the troubled waters of the post station officials, the court's expenditure on the post station increased day by day, and the local people were suffering.
"You also want to live in our Tongzhou Station, are you sure you are not going to dream?"
