Chapter 172 Anxiety

"Ouch! Good brother, good grandfather, please spare me this time!"

"Grandpa, spare me the blind man who has no eyes! From now on, I will respect you and be afraid of you!"

"Hey, if you continue to fight, you will kill someone!"

"Killed, killed, quick help!"

After hearing this, Jia Qiang's complexion suddenly changed, and she immediately got up and opened the window to look outside.

How could he hear Xue Pan's voice?

Then I saw another building boat of similar size moored not far from the bright moon painting boat. The cry for help came from the third floor of the opposite building boat.

Although Jia Qiang couldn't see the person being beaten, she saw the person who raised the stool and threw it down. He was just a half-grown boy, and he sternly shouted: "Stop! Is there any law?"

The sudden scolding sound, when it reached the opposite side, stunned the crazily ruthless young man, but before the young man could react, Jia Qiang heard a burst of surprise-filled howls of ghosts and wolves from under the window of the opposite building : "Ah! Brother Qiang? It's Brother Qiang!! Brother Qiang, come and save me! I'm about to be beaten to death by this little ball... Ouch!"

But the owner of that voice obviously forgot that Jia Qiang was still in another boat.

Such cursing will only usher in more severe beatings...

Seeing this, Jia Qiang's face was gloomy, and she shouted in a cold voice: "I don't care who you are or who your father is, if you dare to hit me again, I guarantee that no one in Yangzhou Mansion can save you!"

As soon as this remark came out, the half-grown boy on the opposite side obviously went crazy. He smiled grimly at Jia Qiang, and raised the solid wooden round stool to smash it down again. At this moment, he heard a burst of anger from the window next door A sharp roar came: "Qi Fu, don't stop! You bastard, what are you doing there?!"

The half-grown boy who didn't pay much attention to Jia Qiang heard the voice, but the round stool in his hand "plopped" fell, and he said dryly: "Brother? You, why are you here..."

Qi Yun was about to explode, although everyone knew what happened in the plum garden that day.

But the Mei family and the Feng family offended Jia Qiang first, and their family was ransacked later, who dares to say that there is no causal relationship?

The fact that Jia Qiang saved Lin Ruhai's life was no longer a rare event in Yangzhou Mansion, and the governor of Liangjiang was in the Yamen of Yanyuan at this moment, let alone news.

As for the rumor that Jia Qiang had offended Ban Shangong in the capital, it seems to have become a rumor now...

As a result, Jia Qiang's weight at this time has skyrocketed by three thousand miles!

Especially for the salt merchant family...

But at this moment, his real younger brother is actually beating someone Jia Qiang cares about, no matter if this person is Jia Qiang's brother, Jia Qiang's friend, or someone of his own.

It's all a disaster!

"Qi Fu, just stand there, if you dare to move again, even if your parents come today, I will beat you to death!!"

Qi Yun, who always pretended to be a refined gentleman, roared ferociously at this moment, and made such a face in his capacity, Mingyue Tower and Pearl Pavilion were almost silent.

Countless eyes fell on Jia Qiang's face, which was still very strange to Yangzhou Mansion, and they guessed who he was.

But what happened next, they couldn't see...

After Qi Yun stopped his brother, he hurriedly walked towards Jia Qiang and bowed deeply, saying, "My brother is young and naughty, he is such an asshole, Qi Yun apologized to brother Liangchen on his behalf!"

Jia Qiang narrowed her eyes slightly, looked at Qi Yun with a cold gaze, and said indifferently: "The person he beat was Xue Pan from the Xue family. You will be familiar with the Xue family in Jinling. It's not just because of the Jia family and Xue Pan. My family is a close friend for many generations. Xue Pan is also my old friend and has helped me a lot. Mr. Qi, I don't want to use power to overwhelm others, and I will not intentionally involve this matter on the Qi family. But your younger brother, just like As you said, no matter who comes today, he will not be able to keep him."

As soon as these words came out, Qi Yun's complexion changed drastically.

Seeing that Jia Qiang was already striding downstairs, her expression was extremely ugly.

Behind him, Chen Cheng, Li Xiao, Peng Xiu and others came up to ask what to do, Qi Yun gritted his teeth, and said to Qi Yan, his concubine brother who came with him today: "Ziming, hurry home immediately and tell grandfather and father what happened today."

Qi Yan had always been afraid of the majesty of his elder brother, so he didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly left.

Qi Yun looked at Xu Zhen with an innocent face again, and said, "Zhongluan, Jia Qiang... Liangchen likes you, no matter what, please help me to ease some words!"

Xu Zhen smiled wryly and said: "He likes me? Brother Qi, I'm afraid you don't know. He talked to me so much just now. He wanted my ice cellar and ice room. This uncle has taken a fancy to the Qi family's business. I……"

Qi Yun's complexion changed slightly when he heard the words, but then he said decisively: "Give it to him! Zhongluan, promise him! As long as you can persuade him, don't do anything wrong, don't take the opportunity to vent your anger, my Qi family will make up for the loss of the Xu family. "

As the eldest grandson of Qi Yun's parents, saying this sentence in public is definitely not light.

Besides, at this point, if Xu Zhen refuses to agree, he will end up with revenge.

He raised his hand and said: "Since big brother Qi has said this, I will naturally contribute my strength and do my best. But I can't guarantee whether I can persuade you. That day in Meiyuan, Second Master Qiang's It's a faction, I think Big Brother Qi has heard of it. Such a character, if you really want to make up your mind, the younger brother is just a worthless slut, really..."

Qi Yun's complexion sank, and he said, "Just do your best."

After all, go downstairs.

At this time, the building boat has already started, approaching the Pearl Pavilion painting boat.

"Brother De'ang, the Qi family is not comparable to the Mei family or the Feng family, so why be afraid of him?"

My friend Chen Cheng followed Qi Yun downstairs and asked puzzledly.

Qi Yun took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Zi'an doesn't know something. Now Banshan is in charge of the governor of Liangjiang, and the power of salt affairs in Liangjiang and Huaihe Rivers has been transferred to the governor of Liangjiang. If the government's salt affairs policy has not changed, why is there such a big change? Furthermore, if there were no accidents in the salt affairs, even if the new official took office, three fires would have to be burned, but it shouldn’t be such a big commotion! Home raid. If this counts as two fires, then there is a third fire, I speculate, I am afraid that it will burn among our eight families. At this time, whoever bumps into it will seek his own death!"

Having said this, Qi Yun's complexion became more and more ugly, and he wished that he could beat his younger brother Qi Fu to death!

Chen Cheng, Li Xiao, Peng Xiu, Xu Zhen and the others all changed their complexions suddenly and became nervous when they heard the words.

Could it be that the sky in Yangzhou Mansion is really about to change?

A group of people hurriedly went down to the first floor, just as the two boats were approaching for handover, Jia Qiang joined Li Jing, Tie Tou, Zhu Zi and six Yan Ding on the first floor, ignored the people behind her, and went up the ladder. Pearl Court.

……

Yanyuan yamen, inside Zhonglin Hall.

Lin Ruhai said apologetically to Han Bin: "Half-mountain, after all, Brother Qiang is young and naive. It seems that things are still immature. You can take a boat in your prime minister's stomach, so you have to bear more."

What Han Bin asked Jia Qiang to do before was categorically rejected by Jia Qiang without any leeway.

Although Han Bin didn't say anything afterwards, he was definitely not happy in his heart.

He is a half monkey, not a saint.

but……

Glancing at Lin Ruhai, Han Bin sneered, and said, "Is Ruhai still worried that the old man will offend a child? Your nephew is young, but you are very slippery. Now you keep saying that you can't enter the officialdom, but you have never given up. The heart of fame and fame. Since he said that he would not enter the officialdom, whoever wants to save face, who would have the nerve to attack him openly? And he relied on his youth, and secondly, because he had no desires and desires, so he was very willful. This old man doesn't take it seriously. It's just that this old man doesn't know if he will be able to live comfortably after his thirties. If he can't think of this, he's just a mediocre person!"

Lin Ruhai laughed when he heard the words: "Everyone adopts their sons to hope to be smart, and I was fooled by being smart all my life. I hope the child is stupid and ruthless, and he will come to the court without any disasters or difficulties... To be honest, half monkeys, after experiencing life and death, I am old. My ambition remains the same, and I am willing to relieve the common people’s worries and difficulties. But I want to be more tolerant towards my children and nephews. If I don’t ask them to go to Gongqing, I will be satisfied if I can live a life without any worries.”

Han Bin is completely different from Lin Ruhai, how could he care about the love of these children, he frowned, thinking that Lin Ruhai had just experienced a life-and-death disaster, it wasn't too harsh after all, but he didn't want to talk about it, so he paused He suddenly said: "I originally wanted that kid Jia Qiang to play the role of a dandy again, to cause trouble, touch the porcelain, the old man will be the master for him, and take advantage of the situation to beat the eight major salt merchants, let them know the importance, don't give the old man and Ru Hai, you add to the chaos. But your disciple actually laughed at the old man for not being upright, what a bastard..."

At this point, Han Bin was once again laughed angrily, and scolded: "He is a bit self-aware if he doesn't enter the officialdom. He doesn't even make sense of the principle of governing the country with scheming, but it doesn't make sense when things happen. Naturally, we should use the brilliant way to govern the world. Insidious schemes are hard to master. But when facing villains, treacherous people and monsters, wouldn’t it be extremely pedantic to be so foolishly obsessed with whether the means are bright or not? But..." After a pause, he continued: "The old man is getting more and more serious. Believe me, Zuixianlou, he didn't intentionally flatter me. This yellow-mouthed child, I'm afraid he really has a heart of loyalty and filial piety. Although he is a bit stupid, it is also commendable."
