Golden Branch

Wang Lin waved his hand, and Qingsong, his trusted servant, who followed behind him, hurried over.

Qingsong bowed and stood beside Wang Lin. Wang Lin put his hand to his mouth and whispered a few words.

A hint of surprise flashed in Qingsong's eyes, but he quickly calmed down. He nodded repeatedly and agreed respectfully.

After giving the instructions, Wang Lin stood up and Qingsong quietly returned to his original position.

Almost at the same time, a team of armored knights arrived at the back street of the county government office.

Lou Dalang was a small man, but he was riding a horse, and the silver-armored knights surrounded him.

"Xu~~"

With a childish shout, the Dayuan horse under Lou Dalang's crotch stopped.

Among the knights, someone had already dismounted and quickly came to Lou Dalang's horse, knelt on one knee and raised his hands.

Lou Dalang very skillfully held the knight's arm, stepped on the knight's knees, and got off the horse safely.

"…Greetings, Lord Wang!"

When Lou Dalang saw Wang Lin standing tall and gracefully, a hint of impatience flashed in his eyes.

He hates these hypocritical adults the most.

Everyone obviously disliked him for being an arrogant and domineering boy, but he still pretended to be elegant and gentle.

Humph, what if he didn't know that the reason these people could still maintain the so-called etiquette was only because his father was Lou Jin, who commanded an army of 100,000.

In Hedong, and even in northern states such as Yizhou, his father was the object of many people's vying for favor.

And Lou Dalang, as his father's only son, naturally became the "Crown Prince" whom these people dared not offend even if they hated him!

Fat girls are still the best, they are cute and silly from the inside out.

I'm scared, but I won't cry!

When asked questions, she told the truth.

No hypocrisy, no falsehood, just like a blank sheet of paper, you can see through it at a glance.

In other words, this damn county magistrate is the fat girl's father, otherwise, Lou Dalang would not even pay attention to him, let alone greet him!

Humph, even if he didn't salute, these people wouldn't dare to say anything.

They even took the initiative to make excuses for him: Dalang really has the straightforwardness of a general's son.

This is a hypocritical scholar. He has already started to greet his ancestors for eighteen generations in his heart, but he still has to put on a smile and help him make excuses.

This is also the convenience brought by absolute strength.

Lou Dalang is young and seems naughty and unmotivated, but he has already had an extremely deep and clear understanding of certain things.

"Young Master Lou is polite!"

Wang Lin bowed slightly as a return gesture.

He did need the Lou family's help, but the person he had to deal with was Lou Jin.

Lou Dalang was just a young boy, a complete junior. Wang Lin had not stooped to the point of currying favor with a junior.

Seeing Wang Lin’s reserved look, Lou Dalang curled his lips again.

He was too lazy to waste time talking to such a hypocritical person, so he went straight to the point: "Where's the fat girl?"

Wang Lin frowned slightly.

He had to admit that Cui was indeed selfish and malicious in sending Ajiu away, but it was not completely unreasonable.

This Lou Dalang really doesn't know any rules at all.

Even if he wanted to play with Ajiu, it should be the elders who came forward, and he followed the elders to visit the Wang family.

Instead of doing what he did now, where he just ran over and rushed in so recklessly when meeting someone, with no manners at all.

If word of this were to spread, people would certainly laugh at Lou Dalang and the Lou family for being unruly, but they would also probably look down on the Wang family.

How could the dignified Wang family of Langya fall to this point, allowing a little beast to act so recklessly at their doorstep?

A trace of sadness flashed in Wang Lin's eyes.

Yes, the Wang family of Langya is in such a state of decline, and Lou Dalang is so rude, but he hasn't even fought him out yet!

Thinking of this, Wang Lin felt aggrieved, sad and angry, and at the same time, he also felt a little violent.

He glanced at Lou Dalang calmly and said slowly, "Young Master Lou, you came at an unfortunate time. My daughter is not at home."

After saying this, Wang Lin did not explain further, and said in a cold tone: "I still have official business to attend to and need to go to the government office. Please make yourself at your own convenience, young master."

Wang Lin didn't even bother to say a polite word like "I'm sorry for my impoliteness."

He simply threw his sleeves and left.

Lou Dalang only heard the words "not in the mansion". His eyes widened. "What? You said the fat girl is not here? Where did she go?"

"Hey! Don't go! Yeah, I still have something to ask."

Lou Dalang was in a bad mood. Seeing Wang Lin leave as soon as he said he would, he got so angry that he started calling himself "Yeah Yeah".

Wang Lin didn't walk far, and Lou Dalang's voice was quite loud, so he just happened to hear it.

Wang Lin: ...Yeah yeah? You little bastard, I'm you yeah yeah!

Nowadays, Ye Ye is another more intimate name for father.

There are also some fanatics who call themselves "Ye Ye" in order to improve their status and belittle their opponents.

It has the same meaning as "Laozi" hundreds of years later.

As a child of a noble family, even when Wang Lin was down and out, no one would say "yeah yeah" to him.

The only way Wang Lin could comfort himself was: Forget it, Lou Dalang is just a child after all.

He is a notoriously naughty boy in Hedong County. It would be disgraceful to argue with him.

Wang Lin still needs to rely on the Lou family, so he can only think like this Ah Q.

Wang Lin left in anger, but Qingsong had not forgotten Wang Lin's instructions.

Seeing Lou Dalang was about to chase Wang Lin in a rage, he quickly dodged and stood in front of Lou Dalang.

"Let the young master know that my Jiu Niang went to the farm in the east of the city!"

"Zhuangzi? What are you doing in Zhuangzi? Did she make a mistake? Or was she bullied?"

As expected, Lou Dalang is just a bear, not stupid.

Especially as a child who grew up in a large family, he was very familiar with some of the routines in the inner courtyard.

For example, if a little girl suddenly goes to the farm without any elders accompanying her during the holiday, it is basically a punishment.

Either he really made a mistake, or he was tricked.

Lou Dalang carefully recalled the fat girl's cute, innocent and soft appearance. Tsk, how could such a glutinous rice dumpling who never cries even when bullied cause trouble?

Qingsong didn't expect Lou Dalang to be so insightful. He thought of "being bullied" without him deliberately guiding or reminding him.

In this way, the rhetoric that Langjun had taught him before would be useless.

However, Qingsong is not stupid either, he is very good at adapting to changing circumstances.

Qingsong immediately changed his expression, with an expression that said, "Young Master, what do you think?", pretending to be hesitant to speak.

Lou Dalang: ...It's like this again! Why do all these adults like to act?

Can't you just say what you want to say directly?

Why do you have to act so ugly that you want to say something but don’t dare to say it?

snort!

It's like being unable to go to the toilet!

Lou Dalang was too lazy to argue with such a person, so he raised his whip and said, "Speak!"

If you keep talking nonsense, I'll whip you!

Qingsong:... Tsk, this Lou Dalang is just like the rumors say, he is really a little bully who cannot be messed with.

A child who is only six or seven years old would whip others at any time.

Deserve to be exploited!

Qingsong felt a lump in his chest, but he didn't dare to vent.

He nodded and bowed quickly, "Speak! I'll tell you right away!"

While saying "I'll tell you right away", Qingsong still couldn't help but want to perform.

He sighed deliberately, and looked at Lou Dalang with a hint of accusation in his eyes: "Speaking of which, the fact that our Jiu Niang was sent to the manor has something to do with you, Dalang."

"It's related to me? What's the connection?"

Lou Dalang was a little dissatisfied.

Although he did cause a lot of trouble and caused many people to be punished because of him.

But when it comes to the fat girl's matter, Lou Dalang dares to say with confidence: It has nothing to do with me!

He is absolutely innocent.

"It's not a direct relationship... Oh, I don't know how to put it. Young Master, let's put it this way, our Lady is Jiu Niang's stepmother!"

"The relationship between stepmother and stepdaughter is inherently delicate. Now, Ms. Cui is pregnant..."

Qingsong deliberately made the following words look "unspeakable" and simply omitted them.

The more hesitant and evasive one is, the more room one has for "imagination".

Lou Dalang is really not stupid.

Especially since he also has a "stepmother" in his family.

Ahem, it’s not his, it’s his father’s.

His "stepmother" had never harmed his father, but Lou Dalang knew that it was not because Cui didn't want to, but because she didn't dare, let alone could not do it.

When Old Lady Cui came in, her father was already in his teens and had already joined the military camp, so he was not someone a woman in the inner palace could touch.

The fat girl is different, she looks younger than me.

The little girl is only five or six years old and is still so silly. Even Lou Dalang wants to bully her, let alone her vicious stepmother?

Lou Dalang immediately felt pity for Wang Heng.

But, even faster, Lou Dalang suddenly thought: "Damn it! Bitch! How dare you take advantage of me!"

Lou Dalang remembered what the Wang family servant had said just now: "He has some relationship with the young master." What other relationship could it be?

It was nothing more than Cui using Lou Dalang's reputation as a banner to drive the fat girl out!

OK!

What a bitch!

He actually used Lou Dalang as a gun!

You are pregnant and feel that your original wife's child is an eyesore and want to get rid of it. Just do it yourself.

Why do you have to involve me?

and many more?

Pregnant?

Humph, you dare to plot against me?

Do you really think Ye Ye can only scare people by using a poisonous snake with its fangs pulled out?

A hint of sinisterness and cruelty flashed across Lou Dalang's eyes, which should have been full of innocence!

Perhaps, it is precisely because they are children and do not understand right from wrong and the seriousness of the matter that they can be so cruel that even adults can be terrified!

……

Wang Heng had no idea what was happening at her doorstep after she left.

She sat obediently in the carriage, the wheels creaking as they rolled over the ruts on the dirt road.

The car was so bumpy that my butt hurt a little.

Wang Heng subconsciously moved her butt. The little girl was quite fat and she thought she moved just a little, but in the eyes of Fu's mother, she looked like she was staggering.

Mother Fu's forehead twitched. She wanted to scold Jiu Niang: "Jiu Niang, you should sit properly and not lose your manners!"

However, they were not going there for sightseeing, but to be "exiled".

When Fu's mother thought about how Jiu Niang was sent to the farm at such a young age, she couldn't help but feel pity for her.

Alas, Jiu Niang is already pitiful enough, so as her mother, she should not be too harsh on her.

The carriage left the city and followed the official road all the way to the east of the city.

On both sides of the official road, there are large tracts of farmland, scattered huts and small courtyards, and groups of passers-by.

Suddenly, just as Wang Hengdong was swaying and almost falling asleep, she heard a cry that interested her:

"My lord! Please stay. I have something delicious to offer you that you have never tasted before!"
