If we can't surrender within three days, my son will be hopeless. Today is the second day of the deadline. She said and changed her title, "Mr. Wang is generous and generous, and it is the right time to rescue my son. The old woman will no longer hinder you." She knelt down again, and Mr. Wang helped her up again, saying why did the aunt need to be so generous? He was responsible for rescuing the disciple.
Mr. Wang quickly helped Ms. Zhang onto the horse, turned the horse's head away, and settled Ms. Zhang in a commoner's house on the other side of the mountain. He only said that after rescuing Chunlong, he would pick her up and find another way to make a living. Zhang thanked him profusely and watched him leave the village on horseback and gallop north.
Xia Juhua, who had left her mother-in-law, rushed to Shaxian County and reached out to people in tears asking for money. Some people saw that she was showing off and gave her one or two pieces of money. Some people just looked at her, didn't express any sympathy, and just talked about it.
There was a constant flow of cars, horses and people on the street. Before she knew it, it was already noon, and there were fewer people showing mercy to her. The sky was covered with dark clouds again, covering up the winter sun that was as yellow as a pickled egg. The early wind was blowing extremely cold. Her chapped fingers reached into the package to count the pieces of silver she had collected all morning. There were only more than 20 taels in the small nest, which was still less than 50 taels.
She was hungry and anxious, and suddenly she saw a white horse standing in front of her feet, with a familiar young man flipping off the horse's back. Oh, by the way, last time, I met him at the foot of a hill while delivering food to school. Yes, he had a mole on the base of his left ear.
Xia Juhua ignored him and tilted her head, but he walked around and said, "Hey, we are enemies on a narrow road." With tears streaming down her face, she said, Master Liu, my husband is in a lawsuit. Now that I have a little bit of silver, I just want to raise 400 taels to buy a job at the county government office and reduce his sentence.
Young Master Liu raised his eyebrows, pretending to be bold, and said with a smile, "Hoho, your husband needs four hundred taels of silver to atone for his sins. I, Liu Pinhua, am the God of Wealth in this area of a hundred miles. I have a lot of silver, not to mention four hundred taels." , even four thousand or forty thousand. Seeing her silence, Master Liu wanted to avoid her, but then asked, "Do you want four hundred taels of silver?" Juhua only glanced at him and remained silent.
To do it or not to do it? Master Liu looked at her with lustful eyes and asked.
If the young master is willing to help, the poor girl will not need four hundred, but only fifty-five taels will be enough. Xia Juhua said this without looking at him.
Make, make. Liu Pinhua put her hand into one of the holes in her clothes and said, "Oh no, no money. Come with me to Liujia Village to get it." Daisy hesitated. He patted the horse's back and said, "The horse is riding very fast, hurry up." Juhua was eager to save her husband, but she said that if the young master coaxed a poor woman, he should be punished with thunder and fire.
Oh, if I coax you, you should be cut to pieces. He urged her to get on the horse and stay behind, while he rode a little ahead. With a whip, the white horse galloped out of the city gate and arrived at Liujia Village in only half an hour.
The sky was cloudy and gloomy, and Juhua followed him nervously into the courtyard. A pair of stone lions in front of the courtyard stared into the distance without looking back. Metasequoia, kapok, walnut, crabapple and other flowers and trees are planted in an orderly manner in the courtyard, but the flowers and leaves are withered. After passing through the central hall, she followed Master Liu to the door of a side room. Master Liu opened the door and let her in.
No need. As she spoke, she threw the package over her shoulder and said, Master Liu, if you don't keep track of what you say, the poor woman will leave immediately.
When it comes to counting, please wait a moment while I go get the silver. After Master Liu finished speaking, he turned around and walked into the back of the wing. After a while, he returned, holding a nest of silver in his hand and dazzling it in front of her, saying, "My dear lady, as long as you come in and say something to me, these one hundred taels of silver will be yours."
If you have anything to say, wouldn't it be different if you said it here?
Come in quickly, the last time I met you on that mountain road, until now, I have been thinking about you. He looked directly at her and said, pointing to a red painted chair in the room: Come, sit here.
Juhua wanted to scold him, but she felt it was not the right time. She was worried about her husband who was in prison, and just wanted to get some money and leave early. Because she said, a poor woman is nothing more than fireworks, so what is there for Master Liu to worry about. She walked into the room as she spoke. If Mr. Liu truly cared for the poor woman, he would not care about this small amount of charity. Besides, the poor woman would be able to repay the money in full if she could save it in the future.
Master Liu immediately closed the door, fastened the hook, and fastened a copper lock. When Juhua saw that the door was closed, she banged on the door anxiously and scolded her. The shameless Master Liu kept laughing and was about to hug her, but was pushed away by a palm. Juhua was weak in the end, and had not tasted rice and water for several meals, so before her eyes he had her hands turned upside down and tied tightly with a hemp rope. She cried hoarsely, let me go, let me go.
Liu Dakun's whole family was alarmed. A young lady and a maid peeked out of the window on tiptoe. They talked about it for a while, but they didn't dare to say anything bad about Master Liu. They all knew that Master Liu had found a side house from somewhere and refused to do it, so he gave her the treatment. According to family law.
Wang Zimin rushed to a city in the north where Yang Chunlong was guarding. It was late at night and the city gate was closed. He tied his horse under the city wall, jumped over the city wall, grabbed a watchman and asked where the prison was, and soon leaned into a Under the walls of a gloomy prison. He slapped a jailer who was napping next to the door awake and shouted, "Hand over the cell key and I will spare your life."
This jailer was Wu Liangliang. He was so frightened when he saw a big old man putting his fists on his head that he took out the key.
Open the cell door for me and release Yang Chunlong, quickly. Wang Zimin urged.
Wu Liangliang had no choice but to unlock the door and go in. After a while, he led Yang Chunlong to the cell door. Under the candlelight, Yang Chunlong's face was sallow and his skull was thin. Wang Zimin approached him and shouted, "My disciple has been wronged and wronged. Come and escape from the sea of suffering with me."
Sir, my unjust injustice has not been vindicated, and absconding will definitely arouse the suspicion of the interrogating officer. It would be better to wait until the culprit is caught to clarify the facts and the disciples come out clean. In this way, the good reputation of the disciples of the teacher will not be insulted. The disciples will have no regrets even if they accidentally enter the spring platform. Then, he stated in detail the circumstances and consequences of his injustice.
Wang Zimin lamented with tears in his eyes, "Today's officials are ignorant and ignorant from top to bottom. Who can provide justice for you?" It has been more than half a year since I abandoned literature and embraced martial arts. I left Xiangxu (school) and went to Jingwu Hall. Recently, I went to fight at the invitation of Taoist Master Ma from Luofu Mountain Temple. I passed by the foot of Qingfeng Mountain and met your mother. She said that you had been sued and I came to help you.
Is my mother still alive? Yang Chunlong asked with wide eyes.
Wang Zimin told the truth about the placement of his mother. Yang Chunlong was grateful and sad, and asked about his wife Xia Juhua again. Wang Zimin said, I heard your mother said that she paid eighty taels of official silver to save you, and was begging on the street. I expected to meet her, but unexpectedly there was no sign of her along the way, so I thought she had arrived at your place. The whereabouts of my disciple's wife are unknown at the moment. Come with me and leave the city overnight. After finding your wife, we will practice martial arts with the old man to strengthen your body and deal with those who bully the weak and harm the people.
What the teacher said makes sense, but the disciple has deep grudges and has not repaid them at all. Moreover, the disciple does not believe that there are all stupid officials in the world, and there are always some upright officials. If you are lucky enough to meet him, once the injustice is redressed, the disciple will study again, and he will achieve great fame and will live up to his late father. His last wish was to live up to his teacher’s teachings. Although the teacher is still advocating for it now, the disciple's ambition has been determined and he hopes that the teacher will continue to do so. Yang Chunlong held his hands respectfully as he spoke.
This disciple is very determined and commendable! When Wang Zimin admired him, he took out two handfuls of silver and put them in his pockets. He said they were one hundred taels of silver and hoped that the disciple would take care of himself. Then he said goodbye, returned to the city wall, untied the horse rope, jumped on the horse's back, and rode south.
