When Ai Rong heard this, her face turned red with embarrassment and she looked even more adorable, which made Cheng Zhou's heart sway.
"Beauty, my surname is Cheng and my name is Zhou. I live nearby. I have been interested in you for a long time. Please help me. I will not let you down. I have what you want." Cheng Zhou said.
Ai Rong ignored it and refused to open the door. This made Cheng Zhou very anxious and felt like a cat scratching his head.
He said: "Beauty, look at the things I brought through the crack in the door. If you like it, open the door and let me do it! If it's not yours, I'll take it. Don't regret it!"
Ai Rong was doubtful and looked out from the crack in the door. The very familiar object was her lost sack. The words embroidered on it were very conspicuous. She made two, one for Ai Shang and one for herself.
Two of them are very meaningful.
When she saw it, she was overjoyed. This was exactly what she had lost, and she quickly said: "Brother Cheng, the thing you took is exactly what I lost. Return it to me quickly!"
"You closed the door, why return it? Just open the door, and I'll return it to you when you open the door!" Cheng Zhouyan said.
These words carry threats and dangers, but if she doesn't open the door, this guy will definitely not give it to her. If he doesn't give it, he will have to struggle for many years to buy the exact same jewelry and give it back to her. This is an explanation for the rest of his life.
"You can open the door, but you can't act recklessly. Return the things to me and leave. Otherwise, I won't open the door. What do you do? My husband will definitely make you look good when he comes back," Ai Rong said.
"Just let me in, I'll leave it to you, and then leave. Never break your promise! Beauty, you have to believe me, I will never mess around. I'm not married yet, so I can't ruin my reputation and I won't be able to find a wife in the future.
"Cheng Zhou said.
"Okay, then I will believe you once and let you in, but you can stop messing around!"
"Of course!"
"Creak-" the door opened.
A gust of wind blew violently, and both people and wind came in.
Ai Rong was so frightened that she almost fainted.
Cheng Yiyi came in, closed the door, bolted it, and got up.
"Brother Cheng, didn't you agree to leave as soon as you give the things?"
"What a beautiful thought! Beauty! Is there any free lunch in the world? How can pie fall in the sky? If you just obey me, nothing will happen to you. You don't lose anything, it's me who loses. You make me happy, things come naturally.
Here you go!" Cheng Zhou said.
"Brother Cheng, my husband will be back soon, please go! Thank you!"
"He won't be back for a while. I know he can't leave now, so I came here. Hahaha! You obeyed me obediently. It's easy to negotiate, so I will obediently give you the bag, and you will feel at ease. What about me?
, and I will definitely do it, as long as you obey me, I will leave immediately, and you will never be in trouble." Cheng Zhouyan said.
"Why are you so shameless?" Ai Rong said angrily, but she was worried that he would go back on his word and not give the bag. You know, it took several years of income to afford the jewelry. It was all because of her own vanity.
At this point, I was very passive and allowed myself to be manipulated by others.
"What's the use of having face? If men all want face, there will be no dolls. Which man wants face? Which woman won't surrender in the end? I don't believe it, you don't have any feelings for me?" Cheng Zhou asked.
As he said that, he came up and started to be dishonest. When Ai Rong saw that the scoundrels came to the door and it was not possible to achieve their goals, he said: "Brother Cheng, I will obey you today, but it is just this time, there will be no next time.
I won’t do it next time, understand? If you can’t do it, you don’t want my things, just take them!”
"Definitely, definitely, I'll love you enough this time and I won't come back again. I'll give you your things back. If you serve me well, there will be no next time. If you serve me badly, I'll do it again next time. I do what I say!"
"Well, you have to keep your promise! A word is final, and a gentleman's word is hard to follow! You must remember it!" Ai Rong said.
When Cheng Zhou agreed, he half-promised and it was done!
Afterwards, Cheng Zhou wiped his sweat and also wiped Ai Rongshi's sweat. Ai Rongshi avoided it and said, "You should leave quickly! My husband will be back soon!"
"You are so disappointing! You always talk about your husband Ai Shang. If your husband dies, you will give up! Sooner or later, you will be mine!"
"You just died!" Ai Rong said angrily.
"Haha! Just kidding!"
"Why don't you make a joke about yourself? I thought you were so awesome? It turns out, that's it, hahaha!"
Cheng Zhou lowered his head and his face turned from red to white.
Ai Rongshi was afraid that he would regret it, so he did not continue to ridicule him.
She reminded Cheng Zhou: "What did you just say? A gentleman's words, what?"
"It's hard to chase the horse!"
"Yes, it's good to know!"
As long as Cheng Zhou doesn't expose her shortcomings and gives him face, he will be eager to leave as soon as possible. The goal has been achieved. How many times have he dreamed that time will be over after a while? This makes people faint.
He was happy and kept his word, and handed the bag to Ai Rong.
Ai Rong got the bag and quickly opened it to see that it was intact. At first, she was worried that this guy would sell it or pawn it, but now it seems that she still blamed him wrongly!
He was just greedy for sex, not money. No wonder he didn’t touch the contents of the bag!
Cheng Zhou left, very happy. His dream for many years had finally come true. It was really enjoyable. However, a spring night was worth a thousand dollars. The time was too short, and there was no time to enjoy it. It was already dawn. He could only leave in anger.
He was going to go again the next day. Before he reached Ai Rong's house, he heard her husband Ai Shang shouting something. Cheng Yiyi looked at it, what should he do? Then he thought, her husband was at home, it must not be possible, so hurry up and do it.
no.
There was no chance to start. I had to wait until the next night.
The next evening, he went again, and when he was approaching Ai Rong's home, he heard a man coughing again. He coughed violently, like an old man who had been ill for a long time. Cheng Zhou thought to himself, he should die soon, it would be best if he died.
!
It seems that there is no chance, the only option is to return.
On the evening of the third day, he went again. This time he saw a man on the roof picking up tiles. When he looked carefully, it was Ai Shang. He went up to the roof to pick up tiles. It didn't look like he could do it in a short while.
Completed.
I guess I was in trouble again tonight.
He almost held it back. This made Cheng Zhou very angry. It was not an option to continue like this. This guy was a serious thorn in the flesh. If he didn't get rid of it, there would be no happiness in the future.
Only after getting rid of her can there be happiness. This fair and graceful lady, who was like a flower and jade, was given to a man who smelled of copper. She was like a flower stuck in cow dung. Only a talented man could marry a beautiful woman.
He could only complain when he went home and couldn't steal anyone. There was really no other way! After thinking hard, he could only achieve his goal by driving the tiger away from the mountain. So he made up a reason, that is, he wanted to buy a house and he needed his help to check it out.
On the fourth day, he went directly to Ai Merchant and explained his purpose straight to the point: "I have recently been entrusted by someone to buy a house. Knowing that Brother Ai is well-informed, I helped my younger brother to check it out. I will be very grateful!"
"
Ai Shang didn't recognize this person, so he asked: "Who are you?"
"The eldest brother doesn't know the younger brother, who lives in a neighboring village."
"That's it! I often do business abroad and have never seen him before."
"Brother, noble people often forget things. We met him at the market last time. Why did he forget about it?"
"Really? Where?"
"In Zuiyue Tower."
"Oh, by the way, I often go there to drink tea and listen to books."
"Yes, what we were talking about at that time was the ancient legend called Chang'e flying to the moon."
"Yes, there is such a play. Chang'e failed Hou Yi. It was so shameless. She took the elixir herself. She thought she could live forever after taking one pill, but she didn't expect that she could ascend to heaven after taking two pills. This is Chang'e's fault."
Ai Shang said.
"Later, Hou Yi did not take the elixir. Even if Hou Yi went through all the hardships to get the elixir from the Queen Mother, it would not help. Originally, he wanted to be a winged bird in heaven and a twig on earth. As a result, he was alone in the moon palace in the sky.
, one looked at the moon on the ground and sighed and finally died of old age. What a pity." Cheng Zhou said.
Cheng Zhou's intention was to let Ai Shang leave. He tried every means to achieve his goal.
He was talking nonsense here, which made Ai Shang upset.
"What do you want to do here today?" Ai Shang asked casually, seeing him looking around and not knowing what he was going to do.
"Brother, I have nothing to do here. I just passed by here to see my brother. I heard that there is a new book out, about the Classic of Mountains and Seas. If you are interested, you can go and read it. If you hear it, you can also tell me.
Tell me to make my little brother happy too." Cheng Zhou said.
"Oh, really? Then why don't you go and listen in person?" Ai Shang asked.
"My younger brother wants to go, but he can't get away from the farm work at home. He's caught up in the busy farming season. If he goes there after he has some free time, he's afraid of missing out on the exciting content. My elder brother is a businessman and has more free time. He can go and listen. After listening, I'll give it to him.
Tell me, little brother." Cheng Zhouyan said. It seems that he really wants to know the content of the new book. It just so happens that Ai Shang also likes to hear about books. He felt itchy and wanted to go. He just looked at him sneaking around, as if he was thinking about his family's property.
, and said: "Well, I just have free time today, let's go and listen to books together. There is a lot of work in the fields, and it can't be finished. It's okay to delay it for a day and a half. Unexpectedly, we are all in the same way, and we all like to listen to books.
, then how about we go together as a group?"
Cheng Yiyi heard this and realized what he wanted. If he wanted to be a long-term couple with Ai Rong, he had to do this. He had to come up with some means to prove that he loved Mrs. Ai.
"Okay, okay! That's great!"
Cheng Zhou clapped his hands and cheered. He turned around and left, then came back and extended his hand in a gesture of invitation, asking Ai Shang to go ahead so that he could follow behind.
Ai Shang knew very well that this guy knew etiquette, and he seemed to be a decent person. He knew etiquette, made people, and had good connections. Getting such a person would help him somewhat.
Now that business is sluggish, if you have people, you can let people know about you through word of mouth. Once you close the business, you will get income.
When he thought about it, he seemed happy.
Ai Shang originally wanted to bring some money with him so that he could spend it at the market, but he couldn't let this guy pay the bill. When he was about to go back, he was stopped by Cheng Zhou and said, "Brother, you don't have to go back to get the money. I have it, little brother. We brothers don't care about each other.
Spending my money will not cost Big Brother any money."
When Ai Shang heard this, he was overjoyed. He was a rich and handsome man who came down from the sky. Although he was neither tall nor handsome, he still had a few taels of silver. In addition, he was generous and hospitable, so he seemed to have a bright future.
Turning around a mountain, passing another mountain, and arriving at Beishan, there happened to be a dry well. Ai Shang didn't know it, but Cheng Zhou knew it very well. Once he stole a chicken and was chased by its owner, so he hid in this dry well, but the owner of the chicken didn't catch him.
Yes, he carries a rope with him, which has a barb and can be hooked on the courtyard wall, making it very convenient to steal property.
Unexpectedly, when we arrived at the dry well, the rope actually came in handy.
The two of them were thirsty after walking, and Ai Shang said, "It would be great if we could find some water nearby!"
"Brother, there is a well ahead. I remember there is water. Why not go and have a look?" Cheng Zhou said.
"Okay, where is it? Please lead the way."
"Brother, I remember it was right in front. I passed by here one year and I remember drinking water at the well."
"Okay, this is it, I'm really thirsty!" Ai Shang said.
When the two arrived at the well, Ai Shang was overjoyed. He gave Cheng Zhou a thumbs up and said, "Your memory is so good! There really is a well here."
Cheng Tuesday said nothing and nodded with a smile. Ai Shang rushed forward excitedly. Seeing the well was like seeing a wine pool, and he wanted to have a big drink right away.
Cheng Zhou saw Ai Shang lowering his head to look down the well, picked up a stone, and pointed it at the back of Ai Shang's head, "Bang——"
When it was smashed down, Ai Shang could only hear an "oops" sound and fell into the dry well.
Cheng Zhou knew the height of the dry well. If no one rescued him, he would be killed by starvation or thirst even if he was not smashed to death. This place is inaccessible, and if it is not dead, it will be disabled. If it is disabled, it will be useless.
Cheng Zhou looked down and saw that Ai Shang had fallen into the dry well and was motionless. He looked dead.
He patted the injured ashes, took long steps, left the dry well, and went to another place. He wanted to avoid the limelight and see what was going on before talking.
Sure enough, Ai Rong heard that her husband went out to go to the market, but he never came back. She felt that something was fishy, so she reported it to the police. The case was not solved for a long time. Later, she heard that Cheng Zhou, who asked him to go out to the market, also disappeared, and she felt something was wrong in her heart.
, but I’m not completely sure.
Later, Ai Rong discovered that this matter must have something to do with him. Thinking that something was wrong, he committed suicide by hanging himself from a rafter in order to maintain his innocence and avoid being harassed by Cheng Zhou again.
Cheng Zhou's appearance arouses suspicion because he was caught for stealing.
It is true that dogs cannot change from eating shit, and wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat, but dogs are different. When he was found, the ten thousand-word money bag hanging on his waist was exactly the same.
The county magistrate discovered that the money bag was a pair of money bags that Ai Shang was carrying. They were almost the same, so they were probably involved. Sure enough, Cheng Zhou confessed immediately before he was even tortured during the interrogation of Cheng Zhou.
Cheng Zhou defied the law, was sentenced to death, and executed immediately.
The case has been closed, and another case has arisen in Xiangyang Prefecture.
A case occurred in the Xiangzhou County Government Office directly under the jurisdiction of Xiangyang Prefecture. At that time, the newly arrived county magistrate was in charge.
Bu Huishu sent one of his favorite disciples to serve as a parent official in Xiangzhou County Government. Before he could take his seat, a case came up, and someone who had been wronged was beating drums to express his grievances.
Bu Huishu's favorite disciple was named Jin Mingshan.
Jin Shan's father named him, which meant that he would be able to enforce the law like a mountain in the future. Unexpectedly, he actually served as the county magistrate and began to enforce the law. As for what happened, please don't be impatient and impatient. Let me explain it next time.
