"Huang An, where are you bitch? Get out of here, mother."
Before anyone arrived, a woman's rough voice echoed in the courtyard.
"Quick, quick, stop Madam, tell me I have business to do here." Huang Qianshi trembled with his right hand, and the lid on the bowl shook and crackled.
The soldier ordered him to run over in a hurry.
"Get away!"
A woman's curse came from the courtyard, and then the main hall door was kicked open with a bang.
Huang Qianshi suddenly sat up from the imperial chair and said with a smile on his face: "Madam, why are you here? If you have anything else, wait until I get back to the backyard to talk about it."
Mrs. Huang strode up to Huang Qianshi, lifted one of Huang Qianshi's ears with one hand, and cursed: "How dare you, Huang An, seduce the little vixen behind my back, and said, you hide that little vixen?" Where is it?"
"Hey, hey, hey, it hurts, Madam, please be gentle, it hurts." Huang Qianshi tilted his head, his ears were lifted up, and he grinned in pain and said, "Madam, please be gentle, if anything happens, let's go back to the back house. He said, my husband has some business to do here."
"Bullshit business, tell me, where is that little vixen?" Mrs. Huang held Huang Qianshi's ear and did not let go.
Huang Qianshi kept begging for mercy.
Butler She, who was standing aside, clasped his fists and bowed his waist and said, "I have seen the eldest lady."
When Mrs. Huang heard the familiar voice behind her, she turned around suspiciously and saw that it was She Fu, the housekeeper beside her father. She frowned slightly and said, "She Fu, why did you come to Tianchengwei when you weren't with my father? My father how's it going?"
While speaking, she let go of the hand holding Huang Qianshi's ear.
Huang Qianshi next to him had his ears turned red from being plucked, and he gently rubbed the ears with his hands.
Butler She said: "Miss, the master is seriously ill and can't get out of bed."
"Hey...my poor father! No matter how much people say it's not possible, it's not possible. My daughter hasn't gone back to see you for the last time!" Mrs. Huang cried whenever she could, slapping her thighs and wiping her tears.
"Miss, miss." Butler She shouted twice in succession, "There is nothing serious about the master. He is just so angry that he can't get out of bed. The doctor said it is a heart disease. As long as he calms down, he will be fine."
"You mean my father is okay?" Mrs. Huang stopped crying immediately and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.
Butler She said: "Master, it's really nothing serious."
"It's fine, then I'll be relieved." Mrs. Huang put away the handkerchief and said, "Just now you said that my father was angry. Who was angry? Has anyone been caught?"
Huang Qianshi, who didn't speak for a while, said: "Madam, this is a matter for gentlemen. You should go back to the back house to rest first."
Mrs. Huang glared and said: "Go away, I will settle the score with you later."
Huang Qianshi shrunk his neck and did not dare to speak any more.
"Tell me, what's going on with my father's illness?" Mrs. Huang looked at Butler She.
Butler She said: "The Zheng family village was robbed by a group of bandits half a month ago. Most of the family's wealth was stolen by the bandits. The master fell ill in bed in anger. Now more than half a month has passed and he still can't get out of bed."
"I'm sorry for my old father. He has always regarded wealth as his life. But he was robbed by bandits. How can I not be sad? My chest must be hurting again, right?" Mrs. Huang's last sentence was asked to Butler She.
Butler She responded: "To report to the eldest lady, I do complain of chest pain every day."
Mrs. Huang wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and asked, "Now is the time when my father needs you. Why did you come to Tiancheng Guard?"
"The eldest lady doesn't know something." Butler She said, "That group of bandits has now arrived in Datong, and it won't be long before they pass by Tianchengwei."
"You want my husband to send troops to suppress the bandits?" Mrs. Huang frowned.
Huang Qianshi next to him answered: "Madam, the matter of sending troops to suppress the bandits is not up to my husband. It requires the consent of the commander and the two commanders."
Mrs. Huang nodded slightly, looked at Butler She and said: "She Fu, you heard it too. It's not that we don't care. In fact, this matter requires orders from the commander and the two commanders. My husband is just a commander. He alone can’t say anything about such a big thing.”
Huang Qianshi also said: "You heard it, it's not that I don't care, it's really that I can't do anything."
"Miss, if you don't care, then no one can. Miss, please save me for the sake of my years of upbringing!" Butler She knelt down towards Mrs. Huang.
Huang Qianshi's face darkened and he said, "She Fu, what do you mean? Are you threatening my wife and me?"
"I don't dare, old slave." Butler She knelt down and said, "This group of bandits only robbed our family of more than 5,000 taels of cash and no less than 500 taels of gold. I heard that this group of bandits burned, killed and looted all the way here. No, All the young and big families have suffered, and there is such a vicious group of bandits, but I am a good official who wants to eliminate the harm for the people!"
"They really robbed so many?" Huang Qianshi rolled his eyes and said, "They are simply too vicious. Such a group of bandits would have a lot of people, otherwise they would not be able to rob so many big households."
After speaking, he looked at Butler She.
Butler She quickly said: "The old slave secretly sent someone to bribe a bandit. He learned from his mouth that this group of bandits claimed to have two thousand people, but in fact there were only seven or eight hundred bandits, and the rest were coerced. of refugees.”
"Is the news accurate?" Huang Qianshi asked again worriedly.
"It's absolutely true," Butler She said. "That's what the gangsters bribed by the old slave said."
Huang Qianshi pondered for a moment and said: "She Fu, you go down and rest first. Let me consider this matter. After all, there are two commanders and two commanders above. I alone can't make the decision." .”
"Uncle, eldest lady, I will leave first." Butler She got up from the ground and walked backward out of the main hall.
After the main door of the main hall was closed from the outside, Mrs. Huang said: "Are you really going to suppress that group of bandits? I heard what She Fu said. There are at least nearly two thousand people in that group of bandits. How many people do you have in Qianhu Station? It’s not enough to put a gap between people’s teeth.”
"What do you know about a woman?" Huang Qianshi said, "Of course I can't do this alone. I need to command the master to come forward. After the matter is completed, my husband will be able to get at least one or two thousand taels of silver. Maybe The position under the buttocks can be moved up a bit."
Mrs. Huang frowned and said, "What if you are captured by bandits?"
"Otherwise, you, a woman, don't know anything." Huang Qianshi said, "The bandits have always been a mob. The reason why no one has annihilated them is because there is no benefit. But now it is different. This group of bandits at least has... Ten thousand taels of gold and silver, our commander will definitely not miss this opportunity to make a fortune if he knows this news."
"Bah, I don't understand. You know, let's talk about that little vixen first." Mrs. Huang pinched her waist with one hand and pulled Huang Qianshi's ear with the other hand.
Huang Qianshi dodged and avoided Mrs. Huang's hand, and said at the same time: "What kind of vixen, I don't know what I am about. You go home one after another, and I want to see the commander."
After saying that, Huang Qianshi quickly walked out of the main hall and disappeared into the courtyard.
"Well, Huang An, you can't hide from the first grade until the fifteenth grade. If we don't tell you clearly about the little vixen, this matter will never end." Mrs. Huang jumped in the room and cursed.
