024:The Incredible World (1)
Don't look at the small place of Hejian County, but it is a place of outstanding people, and there are many scholars with heads and faces in Dongqing. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The Liu family, where the Liulan Pavilion is located, has been inherited from the Sixteen Kingdoms, although it is not very prominent, but it has lasted for more than 300 years.
It's just that in recent years, the people in the clan have not been prosperous, and the Liu family has become more and more low-key, except for Liu Lanting's biological father who is an official outside and has real power in his hands, most of the other clansmen are in relatively idle positions, and some even live in seclusion, becoming idle clouds and wild cranes, and some are more famous celebrities.
In the eyes of outsiders, the Liu family seems to be slowly starting to decline, but Jiang Pengji feels that this family is very smart and can relax a little bit, but the children in the clan cannot slack off on their studies, and every child who enters the clan school must be vigorously grasped by the parents above.
Although Liu Lanting's father is also a son-in-law, he is not a descendant, but a second son.
Not counting those messy relatives, the population of Liu Lanting's family is quite simple.
My father has been working outside all the year round, and my stepmother took the initiative to stay in Hejian to take care of Liulanting, after all, most of the Confucians in Dongqing are from Hejian, Langya and Huan Yu three counties, and Liu's father is really not good in that place, and I heard that he still needs to take great risks. Not only that, but in that poor mountain and bad water, I can't find a knowledgeable Xixi.
Mrs. Die didn't know what the considerations were, so she didn't follow Father Liu to her post, but chose to stay in Hejian County, giving Liu Lanting some color from time to time, or saying something specious, but she never made any out-of-the-ordinary moves.
After Liu's father went out to work that year, the family moved out of the clan and bought a three-entry house near the clan land.
The house is not big, but it is much better than living in a crowded family land, and you can control the things in the house.
Liu Lanting's home is on Three Squirrel Street, Jiang Pengji lifted the curtain slightly, and she could see the deserted door of Liufu from afar.
"Brother Liu is not here, and I don't want to bother ...... door" Taishou smiled like Maitreya Buddha, and the clever little guy outside jumped out of the carriage and knocked on the door of Liufu, informing them that Erlang Jun of the Liu family had returned safely, "If the virtuous nephew has academic difficulties, he can find this official." Although he is not as knowledgeable as your father, he can do his part. ”
Jiang Pengji nodded and thanked Taishou.
Taishou is in charge of a county, and it stands to reason that he should have very real power, but it also depends on which place Taishou is.
In fact, according to the land area and the number of people, Hejian County is actually smaller than the county, but this place has a different meaning, so it was specially changed to "county". The county guard here is just a petty official who is a little bigger than a sesame seed.
In the small place of Hejian County, the position of Taishou is equivalent to providing for the elderly, and Jiang Pengji has helped him a lot, so he is so intimate.
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Pengji vaguely heard the ecstatic shout of the Liufu family, "Erlangjun is back......
Jiang Pengji thought that when she came back, she could see a room full of white flags, and she could see her coffin no matter how bad it was, but she didn't expect it to be such a deserted scene...... It's not normal, "I'm not here today, what's going on at home?"
Jia Ding was very surprised by his appearance, or rather, it was like seeing the backbone and the savior.
Jiang Pengji's gaze swept around the other party, and all kinds of information filled her brain.
This family stayed in the bed of the powder head last night, and there was still some alcohol on his body, indicating that he may have stayed in Liuxiang last night, and did not go out to look for Liu Lanting, and the rouge on his fingers was not the same person as the powder head he slept on...... Tsk, this man doesn't look honest.
Jia Ding didn't know at all that Jiang Pengji not only knew where he slept last night, but also knew that he had gone to the gambling house not long ago and made a little money, and she was currently considering whether to transfer him, a clandestine and derelict subordinate, from the concierge to another post or simply resign.
"Erlang-kun, you can count it back, the eldest lady and the butterfly lady learned the news that you were kidnapped by thieves, and they both fainted. Lang Zhong was still guarding the eldest lady's side, and he almost went last night...... Mrs. Butterfly woke up and fell ill again, so that the family in the house went into the mountains to find you, and there is no backbone in the house, and now that the master is not at home, if you have a ...... of three long and two short?"
Jia Ding secretly rubbed his hands and said, seemingly eager and happy, but his eyes unnaturally staggered Jiang Pengji's gaze, which was a subconscious humble demeanor.
Retracting her gaze, Jiang Pengji drove the excess information out of her brain, and what she analyzed was simply spicy.
She interrupted the family's chatter and asked directly, "Yesterday, I went into the mountains to find my family, and I went to find them?"
Jia Ding said, "No, except for the maidservants who stayed behind to take care of the two ladies, everything that could be sent out was sent out. ”
Jiang Pengji raised her eyebrows and asked, "Including you?"
The family didn't know that Jiang Pengji had set him up, so he patted his chest to show his loyalty, "Where is Erlangjun, the villain is very loyal to you, knowing that you were kidnapped by thieves, who in the house is not worried, the villain naturally ......"
"Did the noodles taste good last night?" Jiang Pengji asked coldly, "Remember covering your face when gambling money." ”
The family led the way with a stumbling pace, and almost fell to the ground, his slightly mean face full of shock.
"Go down to the housekeeper to get the punishment, and if I get caught again, sell it directly to people!"
Jiang Pengji snorted coldly, she hated this kind of clumsy performance that didn't even have basic actor qualities, she really thought she was as easy to coax as a three-year-old child? The porter was so frightened by her that she didn't dare to squeak, and the whole person was still a little confused, and it happened that at this time, the housekeeper of Liufu ran over in small steps.
"Erlang-kun. ”
Father Liu has not returned for many years since he took office, and Liufu can still operate well, which is inseparable from the housekeeper.
Jiang Pengji glanced at the old housekeeper, and the result was quite satisfied, "I'm back, how is my mother doing now?"
When the housekeeper saw the living Jiang Pengji, he almost burst into tears. He has always been very disciplined, if he wasn't too happy for a while, like the gaffe of eagerly trotting over just now, he wouldn't usually do it at all, "The eldest lady's condition is getting worse, I'm afraid it ......"
Jiang Pengji secretly softened her eyebrows and said, "While walking, my mother's condition is really serious to that extent?"
According to Liu Lanting's memory, although the step-wife lingered on the sickbed and drank medicine all the year round, her complexion was not bad the day before yesterday. Even more than half a month ago, during the Flower Dynasty Festival, which was Liu Lanting's birthday, the step-wife also went down to the ground to make her a bowl of longevity noodles.
The old housekeeper saw the strange clothes Jiang Pengji was wearing, his eyes flashed slightly, but he didn't point it out, he just buried this doubt in his heart.
"Yes...... Yesterday, there was a Diao slave who didn't figure out the situation, and even replied directly that Erlangjun had died at the hands of thieves, and the eldest lady fainted directly after hearing this, and held her breath several times. Mrs. Butterfly was also frightened, and immediately asked the family in the house to go out to look for ...... I don't know which way I offended the fairy, but not long after, it was rumored that San Langjun accidentally broke his head while playing with the maidservant girl in the backyard......"
All of a sudden, the three masters of the family were very ill and looked for Lang Zhong everywhere.
Jiang Pengji stopped abruptly at this time, and she suddenly felt that she had made a mistake in a detail?
