On this day, Qin Dewei was chatting with several other clerks in the Huitong Hall. Everyone knew that this was the clerk assigned directly by Da Sima, so they would not neglect him, at least within the two-month period. .
Suddenly, a doorman came to report that a family of three named Hao came outside the gate, saying they were looking for Mr. Xiao Qin.
Qin Dewei was very puzzled. Hearing that it was the servant Hao Danian and his family of three, why did they come to the Huitong Hall instead of staying at home?
With questions in mind, he went out to meet people, but he saw that Hao Danian had some trouble on his face and his clothes were slightly damaged. He couldn't help but ask, "What's going on?"
Hao Danian complained: "Today, a group of officials from the government suddenly came to the house and said that they would take over Zhonglie's former residence and take it over to the government, along with the Zhonglie Shrine and the vegetable garden. They would all take it as government land!
The three of us could not stop him, but we were all kicked out. We can only come here to look for the young master!"
Qin Dewei really didn't expect that after hiding in the Huitong Hall for several days, even his home would be occupied? He said angrily: "What's the truth?"
At this time, several servants brought a bamboo cage over and threw it in front of Qin Dewei, "Mr. Xiao Qin! Here are your clothes and books. Our government office will not take advantage of you, so we will deliver them to you!"
Qin Dewei asked: "How dare your government government occupy the house so blatantly?"
The chief official replied: "The boss said that when Yang Zhonglie was killed, he was an official of the government, so the government should be the one to carry out the sacrifice!"
Moreover, the former residence of Zhonglie was not suitable for private use, so it was all owned by government officials!
Of course, it’s not an occupation. When Mr. Qin is free, you can go to the government office to sign and draw a deposit, and you will be compensated!"
Qin Dewei laughed angrily, this government official is very forward-thinking. Isn't this just using public affairs as an excuse to forcibly expropriate houses and land? As for the compensation, it must be lower than the market price.
After the government officials finished speaking, they quickly left without giving Qin Dewei a chance to react or react.
After looking at Hao Danian's family of three, Qin Dewei had no choice but to find the Huitong Hall again and spent some money to accommodate the family of three.
This Huitong Hall is mainly a place to receive and control foreigners. It is essentially a foreign-related government guest house and is not considered a government office.
In addition to the foreign-related areas that are not allowed to enter and exit casually, there are also some accommodations built to provide convenience for his own people, so Qin Dewei can spend some money to live there.
After Qin Dewei's house and vegetable garden were taken away by the government, rumors spread in Nanjing.
The urban legend schoolboy who has been wreaking havoc on Nanjing's literary world for more than a year is now finally in trouble, and even his home has been taken over!
There are also rumors that a primary school student is hiding in the Huitong Hall and will be beaten if he dares to come out!
Although there are many rumors outside, Qin Dewei, who is cowardly in the hall, is immersed in studying the Spring and Autumn Annals. He has not been affected yet, but he also has worries.
Today the doorman came to report to Qin Dewei that Miss Wang Lianqing was looking for him at the gate.
It seems that this is the first time that Wang Lianqing has taken the initiative to visit Qin Dewei at his residence. Previously, she had always abided by industry rules and did not take the initiative to visit, so as not to cause trouble to other people's homes.
Of course, the nature of a place like the Huitong Hall is similar to that of a hotel or restaurant, except that it is state-owned. It cannot be considered a home anyway, so it is not a bad rule for Wang Lianqing to come here to find someone.
"The slave family wants to live in the Huitong Hall to accompany you!" Wang Lianqing said firmly and loudly to Qin Dewei.
Behind her, there were several maids and servants (thugs) carrying luggage, showing strong determination.
Qin Dewei had a strange look on his face, as if he didn't know how to speak.
Although Wang Lianqing often showed off her professional skills in front of Qin Dewei, and even if she wanted to be flirtatious, she was a very independent person at heart.
"Young man, there is no need to persuade me. Now everyone knows that you are going to be in trouble, and everyone knows that I, Wang Lianqing, have a good relationship with you. If I don't come, won't I become that snobbish woman with a red cap and a white cap?"
Qin Dewei sighed and stopped talking.
Wang Lianqing fell into self-movement again, and said in an affectionate confession: "Although I don't know what will happen in the end, at least for this moment, the slave family will advance and retreat with you, and we will live up to the friendship between you and me."
Qin Dewei said distressedly: "It's not that I won't let you come, but there is no room here."
"Why is there no place?" Wang Lianqing asked confused.
At this moment, a beauty in a light yellow dress walked out of the second door of the Huitong Hall. She slowly came over with a fan in her hand and said to Wang Lianqing: "Sister Wang, you are late."
Wang Lianqing's pupils tightened instantly and she cried out, "Yu Xuerong?"
They are all famous beauties, they know each other, and their rankings were about the same a year ago. Of course, Wang Lianqing is not what she used to be now, and her fame has long left Yu Xuerong behind.
Yu Xuerong nodded and said with a smile: "I moved in yesterday, and there is really no extra space inside."
Qin Dewei quickly explained to Wang Lianqing: "I didn't run this hotel. She spent money to live in it, so I have no reason to stop her."
Wang Lianqing lowered her face, brushed Qin Dewei aside, and asked Xuerong as if facing a formidable enemy: "Why are you here?"
Yu Xuerong answered calmly: "Last time something unexpected happened to Mr. Qin, the slave family spent the night in the county jail with him. Now that Mr. Qin is in trouble again, thinking about the future, is there any reason not to come?"
Just like what you said, Sister Wang, we all got to know each other, and we share the joys and sorrows, so we have to start well and end well, right?"
Wang Lianqing looked at the young man sadly. He had already been taken advantage of. If he messed around any more, he would be at the bottom of the class. He would only be criticized and laughed at, which would make him lose his value!
Qin Dewei couldn't help but sigh and said: "Are you a little slow now? You always drink soup but can't drink it warm?"
A group of clerks and servants stood around, craning their necks to watch this wonderful show. Two famous beauties acted with all their hearts, and it was hard to watch.
Looking at it, I couldn't help but admire him. Someone said unconvinced: "I heard from outsiders that Brother Qin is doomed to be unlucky. Why are there still beauties following him?"
Immediately, a clerk laughed and said, "What do you know, a handyman! Talents and beauties, regardless of their joys and sorrows, are legendary stories! No matter how unlucky little brother Qin is, he is still a famous prodigy!
Regardless of whether the talented man is unlucky or not, as long as his reputation is here and his talent is still there, it actually doesn't matter much to the beautiful woman. Now that he has come to accompany him and spread the word, he is affectionate, righteous, brave and tender.
Reputation."
Another scribe followed up and said, "Believe it or not, even if little brother Qin is drowned in the Qinhuai River tomorrow, more than one beauty will go to the river to burn paper and cry for him!"
The scribe from before nodded and said: "That's right, that's right! For example, in the storybook I saw, the romantic poet Liu Sanbian in the Song Dynasty.
After his death, wasn't it a group of beauties who pooled their money to bury him and arrange the funeral arrangements? Moreover, the beauties went to pay homage and burn paper every year, which became a legend."
