The man heard that it made sense, so he did not stop him. Shao Yan took Zheng Yuegui and walked forward. From a distance, the two saw a large house made of stones. There were three signs written on the eaves.
Big character 'Changfengzhai'
Before coming here, Shao Yan knew a little about the situation here. The owner of Changfeng Village was named Chang Feng. He had a full beard and was known as the Big Beard. The second head of the family, Chang Qing, was injured because he peeked at his sister-in-law taking a bath in his early years.
One eye, so there is a nickname in the world called Cyclops
It is important to know first-hand information, but it is not easy to find out the whereabouts of Lian'er in a short period of time. Arriving at the gate of the cottage, Shao Yan paused. Seeing that he was uneasy, Zheng Yuegui whispered: "Brother Shao
,What's wrong?"
"It's okay. After you go in later, everything will depend on my look."
Zheng Yuegui nodded and followed him cautiously. When the few soldiers outside the door saw someone approaching, they immediately stepped forward to stop them. Shao Yan pretended to be a woman and said with a smile: "This little brother,
I am a guest invited by the head of the family, and this girl is the new concubine of the head of the family. I also asked my younger brother to pass the news on my behalf, saying that Sister Mei from the capital is here."
Speaking of 'Sister Mei', it is said that she is a well-known matchmaker in the capital. Shao Yan also heard from Chen Yang that this 'Sister Mei' usually acts as a matchmaker for others with her face covered. As for the reason, he had no idea at the moment.
I only know that Sister Mei intends to betroth her goddaughter to the head of the family
None of the minions had seen Sister Mei, so they hurried in to pass the news, and after a while they came out politely and said, "The boss is here to invite you."
Entering the hall, Shao Yan and Zheng Yuegui were immediately dazzled. They saw glittering gold inside. The whole house was supported by four golden pillars. Murals with gold and silver jewelry were hung everywhere on the walls. On the left was a row of maids.
, on the right is a row of minions standing with swords. At the lowest center is a lion chair, which is second in size to the dragon chair. On it sits a man in his forties, surrounded by a lot of beauties.
While eating the banana that the beauty had just peeled, the big man asked in a rough voice: "Are you Sister Mei?"
"What's the matter? The head of the family has forgotten me so quickly?" Shao Yan took Zheng Yuegui's hand and took a few steps forward aggressively, then said: "Thankfully, I was planning to betroth my goddaughter to you, but I didn't expect it.
Are you living a pretty comfortable life?"
The man was a little embarrassed when he said this, so he drove away the beauties around him, got up and walked to Shao Yan, staring at Zheng Yuegui greedily with a pair of wolf eyes. Zheng Yuegui lowered his head, and his heart was pounding.
"Beautiful, so beautiful." The man couldn't help but exclaimed in admiration. Shao Yan pulled Zheng Yuegui and turned around to leave. The man hurriedly caught up and said with a smile: "Sister Mei, you have a lot of people. Chang Feng forgot about everyone."
We can't forget Sister Mei, right? But in the past, when I met you, you always covered your face, so..."
"So what? Are you afraid that I will fake it?" Shao Yan put his finger on Chang Feng's forehead and scolded: "A big boss, you have some brains, okay? Even if I fake it, I will pretend to be a beautiful woman. At night, I will do it."
I'll throw that thing away from you and tell you not to play with women in the future."
All the servants in the room burst out laughing. Chang Feng said with a straight face: "What are you laughing at? Get out of here." After the servants retreated, Chang Feng seemed to have lost his soul, and his eyes were staring at each other closely.
Zheng Yuegui
"If the boss still thinks that my identity is suspicious, just arrest me and interrogate me, so as not to regret it in the future." Shao Yan complained deliberately, and Chang Feng said with a smile: "What did Sister Mei say? Chang Feng didn't doubt you.
mean"
"Then what are you waiting for? Get the matter done quickly."
"I'm sure, I'll listen to Sister Mei. Someone, come and take this girl down to rest."
Shao Yan waved his hand, "Wait a minute, Sister Mei, I haven't finished speaking yet. Why are you so anxious?"
"Yes, yes, sister Mei, please tell me."
"You guys are thieves in the eyes of the government, but in the eyes of me, Sister Mei, you are all heroes. Sister Mei admires her from the bottom of her heart, but there is a saying you don't want to hear. A person with the right means a person."
If you are drifting in the world, you will get stabbed sooner or later. After today, you still don’t know if there will be tomorrow. As a big brother, you should pay more attention to the lives of your brothers below."
"What does Sister Mei mean?"
"Sister Mei, I don't mean anything at all. I just want to protect the matchmaking for the brothers in Guizhai and leave a seed early. Of course, Sister Mei, I also want to take this opportunity to get to know more brothers in Guizhai. If Guizhai
Brother, my heart belongs to you, even if you robbed it, why don't you bring it to me, an old woman, to see if you will have a boy or a girl in the future, Sister Mei, I will know it as soon as I see it."
"That's great." Although Chang Feng is lustful, he is very loyal to his subordinates and always thinks about starting a family for them. In his opinion, being a robber is not a long-term solution after all, and it is better to get a wife and have children as soon as possible.
It's like leaving a way out for yourself
Shao Yan wanted to use this lie to trick him, but he didn't know that Chang Feng didn't mention anything about Chang Qing snatching Lian'er away. Although he was a little discouraged, in any case, since he could sneak in smoothly, he had taken the first step towards success.
One step, what happens next depends on Zheng Yuegui
After obtaining Shao Yan's consent, Zheng Yuegui followed the maid to the wing to rest, and then asked around for Lian'er's whereabouts. The servants all said they had never heard of this name. Just when she felt confused, she was suddenly hugged from behind.
Get up
"Let me go, let me go!" Zheng Yuegui turned pale with fright, and kept beating the unfamiliar arms with both hands. When she looked back, she saw an extremely ugly man smiling at her, and there was only one
Just one eye, it’s creepy to look at
"One-eyed dragon? You...are you the second in charge?" Zheng Yuegui said tremblingly
The one-eyed dragon put her down and wondered: "Who are you? How do you know me?"
Zheng Yuegui plucked up her courage and said slightly proudly: "I am Sister Mei's goddaughter and your future sister-in-law."
"Sister Mei? Sister-in-law?" One-Eyed Dragon was startled. He had heard Chang Feng talk about Sister Mei, and now he heard Zheng Yuegui say this, and his heart suddenly became uneasy. At this moment, a minion came to report.
, saying that the head master wanted to discuss with him about taking a concubine, One-Eyed Dragon completely believed it, and hurriedly apologized to Zheng Yuegui, and then walked to the hall with regrets.
The two brothers were sitting in the hall planning the wedding. Not long after, Shao Yan ran in crying, swinging his sleeve handkerchief. Before Chang Feng could introduce him, Shao Yan rushed to the one-eyed dragon, slapped him hard, pinched his waist with both hands, and shouted harshly.
Said: "Tell me, where did you hide my daughter?"
The one-eyed dragon felt so strange that he couldn't help but get angry and said: "Damn old woman, who touched your daughter? What does it matter to me if your daughter is gone?"
Seeing the arrogant attitude of the one-eyed dragon, Chang Feng walked over and slapped her again, "Damn it, do you talk to Sister Mei like this?"
The one-eyed dragon was slapped twice in succession and felt aggrieved. Shao Yan had liked to make up stories since he was a child, so he embellished the whole process of teasing Zheng Yuegui in front of Chang Feng. Chang Feng was furious, and Shao Yan added fuel to the fire.
He said that his goddaughter suddenly disappeared. It was entirely possible that she was hidden by the one-eyed dragon.
Chang Feng was impatient and could not withstand his instigation. He immediately summoned his subordinates to search the residence of Cyclops. Shao Yan followed. After a large-scale search, the subordinates found a secret room in the residence.
There were five or six girls hidden, the youngest of which was only eleven or two years old, which fully proved that the one-eyed dragon was the incarnation of the beast. Shao Yan recognized Lian'er at a glance through the characteristics described by Chen Yang, with her round face and eyes.
She is not big but very attractive. Her complexion is a little dull. At first glance, you can tell that she is a girl who is used to doing rough work in the countryside.
Regarding the fact that Cyclops was secretly hiding women, Chang Feng had been kept a secret in the past, but now that he was caught, he became angry and removed Cyclops from his second position and released all the women.
Lian'er was rescued safely, and Shao Yan stayed in the cottage for one night as "Sister Mei". Since it was acting, he had to look forward and backward. He didn't find his "goddaughter", so how could he leave alone? In order not to make people suspicious,
He made a fuss all night long, and Chang Feng stayed up all night because of this.
Early the next morning, the minions at the foot of the mountain came to report that a handsome young man had come outside the door. He kept claiming that he was Sister Mei's godson. Chang Feng hurriedly asked someone to invite him in. The young man had handsome features and handsome hands.
He took the folding fan and asked: "Why don't you see my godmother and cousin?"
Chang Feng felt guilty, so he asked Shao Yan to come out. When Shao Yan saw the young master, he rushed over heartbroken without saying a word. It turned out that the so-called young master was played by Zheng Yuegui, and all of this was
Shao Yan first-hand planning
The mother and son hugged each other and cried for a while. Chang Feng was even more ashamed, so he had to take out some silver as compensation and sent someone to take them down the mountain.
One-eyed dragon felt very uncomfortable when he saw that Chang Feng ignored brotherhood and turned his elbows towards outsiders. On the day he escorted 'Sister Mei' down the mountain, he secretly asked his confidant to follow him. The confidant followed him all the way to Lian'er's house and inquired about the situation.
After discovering the true identity of 'Sister Mei', the one-eyed dragon was so angry that he gritted his teeth and vowed to kill Shao Yan with his own hands.
Chen Yang's mother and daughter were reunited, and several other girls quickly found their relatives. It can be said that everyone was happy. For a while, Shao Yan became the incarnation of God among them.
"Master Shao, this is a small kindness, please accept it."
After staying at Lian'er's house for a day, Shao Yan and Zheng Yuegui decided to return to the capital. The mother and daughter of Chen Yang came to the door. Lian'er took out a few pieces of broken silver and handed it to Shao Yan. These silver coins had been chopped by her in the past two days.
Shao Yan refused to accept the money Chai earned, and said in a joking tone: "Miss Lian'er, this money is your dowry and cannot be given to others casually. If others mistakenly think it is a gift from you,
His love token is no good."
Lian'er couldn't help but blush. She had underestimated the other party's shamelessness. Shao Yan secretly glanced at her rosy little face. Lian'er lowered her head shyly. To be honest, this girl's smile was the most beautiful he had ever seen.
The sweetest thing is that we are both children from the countryside. I feel very friendly. If I were not in a hurry, I would really like to stay a few more days.
Before leaving, Shao Yan gave all the money he had scraped from the bandits' dens in the past few days to Chen Yang's family. The mother and daughter refused to accept it, and Zheng Yuegui persuaded him for a long time before letting him.
Reluctantly accept
Saying goodbye to the mountains and rivers, Shao Yan followed Zheng Yuegui's guidance and came to Suicheng, the capital street of Nanliang Kingdom.
Suicheng is located in the center of Nanliang Kingdom, which can also be called the heart. In addition to being surrounded by mountains, the south side is a canal that runs through the north and south (equivalent to the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in history). It is said that the other side of the canal is the West
The situation of the Chu State: In the early years, the Western Chu State attempted to attack Nanliang by water many times. However, due to the strong water defense power of the Nanliang State, the Western Chu State repeatedly failed.
After arriving in Suicheng, Zheng Yuegui took out some silver and bought some new clothes for each of them. After changing their clothes, the two of them found a small shop and prepared for a feast. The waiter came up to greet him with a smile, "Two guests, sir.
, What do you want to eat? The shop has everything, please order whatever you want.”
Shao Yan felt a little thirsty and said casually: "Then let's have two cups of coffee first."
"Coffee?" The waiter was doubly surprised. Not only that, the other guests cast strange glances at Shao Yan. They all seemed to be whispering something in private. Judging from their dressing, there were many of them.
They are local wealthy businessmen, and some are dignitaries.
Shao Yan stared at them unceremoniously, "Grandma, what are you looking at? Why are you making such a fuss if you're just ordering a cup of coffee?"
