Chapter 103: A Roaring Mountain and River
Jing Mo fixed his eyes and saw that this uninvited guest was the young man's father, Tian Youyu. He came so suddenly! The boy and Jing Mo were both surprisedβNie Xiaoman looked at ease. Tian Youyu's face was full of anger, he was like the angry King Kong in the temple. At this time, he stepped into the door and locked Wei Pu out of the door with his backhand.
The poor young man's face was pale and frightened, and he had left his chair, and stood there trembling dumbly. Nie Xiaoman also stood up from the circle chair, with a somewhat unhappy look on his face. Tian Youyu seemed to have been eavesdropping outside the door for a long time, so as soon as he walked in, he pointed at his son and scolded.
"Something that doesn't make a difference! Obstinate? You're not stubborn. You're a sven, I'm not worthy of a beast like you! Gremlin! Get the hell out of here! You-"
Nie Xiaoman took a step forward and dissuaded: "Brother Tian, please calm your anger." This kid's words are indeed inappropriate, but you are also here as a guest at this moment, and it seems that you should not be like this. I have asked you to come here in advance, so that you can easily understand the reason for the twists and turns in this, so that you can avoid indirect explanations. Why are you so uncultivated? Alas, all right, please sit down. β
Although Tian Youyu was very angry, but in front of the court officials and Jinyi Wei, he didn't dare to make a mistake, and when he heard Nie Xiaoman's tone, there was a sense of displeasure in his tone, and he immediately glared at his son like a deflated ball, and he didn't say anything.
Tian Youyu calmed down, and seemed to feel that he had just roared, worried that he had really offended people, but he seemed to feel that he had lost his prestige in front of his son, and he was a little embarrassed for a while.
After waiting for a while, I saw that others didn't give me a step, so I had to find a step for myself, and said, "For the sake of adults, I won't talk to you much now." Since you have the ability to give the beads out, you will always have the book to receive and return it. Now where is the real one? Take it out! β
Tian Mengzheng's eyes widened and he only asked Nie Xiaoman for help, and Mengzheng's eyes contained a hint, as if it was time to ask Xiaoman to fulfill his promise.
Nie Xiaoman didn't seem to see it, and turned to his father to speak.
Xiaoman said: "Brother Tian, let me say a fair life." Since this bead was appointed by the child's grandfather as a gift for his wedding, if the method is right, of course you will not stubbornly refuse. Isn't it? β
Tian Youyu replied: "That's a good thing. But now that the beads have been stolen from them, how can I not ask? β
Nie Xiaoman pointed at the young man with a pu fan and asked the young man Meng Zheng, "Have you heard?" If you had done it in a righteous and bright way, your father would have approved of it. You say that he is stubborn, and it is ridiculous to say that he is really wrong. You have offended your relatives, and you deserve a good excuse when you go back. What do you have to say about the real pearl? β
Tian Mengzheng was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't understand the meaning of Xiaoman's words, and said: "My lord, I really don't know, I gave her a real one, but she gave me a fake one." β
"Do you think Lin Su'e swapped it?"
"No, I don't think she will be like this, whether it will be changed by someone in her family, I don't know."
"Have you ever opened it to see it after you took it back in the seventh trumpet?"
"No, I'll go directly to Su'e's house."
Nie Xiaoman nodded and said, "That's no wonder you." Fortunately, you didn't really go to Su'e's house last night to retrieve the pearl, otherwise if you make three mistakes, this matter will be ruined by yourself again. All right! Let this be the end of the matter. The beads are with me, so take them back. β
As soon as the words fell, Nie Xiaoman's right hand stretched out from his sleeve, and a bead was safe in the center of his palm. The beads are round and crimson, with a blood-red fine line in the middle, which is really the heirloom pearl that Tian Youyu said.
In the twilight of autumn, it is common to see clouds in the clear sky, and all kinds of strange shapes emerge; In the blink of an eye, the shape of the cloud will change endlessly, often unexpectedly. Nie Xiaoman's actions are sometimes unexpected, and it can really be said to be "phantom in autumn clouds".
For example, now that he suddenly took out the beads, no one, including Jing Mo, expected it. Tian Youyu's father and son seemed to be suspicious of Nie Xiaoman's joke at first, so they were stunned and didn't dare to speak, and Jing Mo was also a little skeptical.
Later, Tian Youyu came closer, and his eyes were fixed on Nie Xiaoman's hands. He suddenly stretched out his hand, hurriedly picked up the beads, and when he looked at them carefully, he could not help but cry out for joy.
"Alas! These are really my beads! My lord, where did you get that? β
The young man's eyes were wide open, as big as a walnut, and he didn't know whether he was happy or surprised in his heart. Although Jing Mo still retained his composure on the outside, he was also surprised by this sudden move in his heart.
However, Jing Mo is familiar with his old friend, and Nie Xiaoman will never have the leisure to make some jokes with others at such a juncture.
Nie Xiaoman smiled and said, "Mr. Tian, this bead has fallen into the hands of a third irrelevant person. Fortunately, I thought it was early, and the thief never got out. Now that the goods have been returned to their original owners and the pearls have returned to the field, you don't have to pursue anything else. This matter is finally completed. β
As he spoke, Xiao Man turned his head, looked at Meng Zheng with a smile, and said, "Little friend, you can really make a mistake again and again when you do this." Isn't it another presumptuous thing for you to give fake beads to your lover? After you go back, you have to quickly think of a way to apologize to this Lin Su'e girl. β
The young man quickly avoided his gaze and buried his face deeply, as if he was ashamed.
Nie Xiaoman said again: "Now that this matter has been settled peacefully, you should not worry too much about the past." Now you can go back to the house. β
Tian Youyu knelt down, kowtowed, and said, "Thank you, my lord, for making this flat turmoil disappear in an instant. I don't know how to repay you. β
Nie Xiaoman stretched out his hand to support him, so that he didn't have to bow down, and said, "It's not necessary. I'm so bored that I'm looking for something to do. Now I get two days of pastime, and that's the best pay for me. But that Ji Shaoquan, the official Ji Tui ran for you once, you have to thank him, the rules in this yamen are like this, you still have to know something. β
"This nature, this knows, knows. Thank you, thank you for reminding me. β
Tian Youyu thanked him again and again, and said a lot of words of thanks such as changing his mouth and making up the report, before leaving the study with his embarrassed and happy son. Nie Xiaoman gave an order outside, sent Wei Pu to call Ji Shaoquan, and then returned to the study.
Jing Mo asked, "Xiaoman, did you hide Tian Youyu outside the house in advance to let him eavesdrop?" When I came in, I was stopped by Wei Pu at the door for a while, just to hide this old man? β
Nie Xiaoman smiled: "Yes, in this way, doesn't it save us a lot of things?" Otherwise, when I have asked and understood, I will have to explain it to his father, so why not bother with words? β
Jing Mo nodded, feeling that this also made some sense.
Nie Xiaoman slapped the fan a few times, and then said: "Jingmo, I said that the final result will definitely satisfy you, how about now?" β
Jing Mo sighed: "This time the story is really full of twists and turns, I think it is more exciting than the "Red Line Girl" play, but I still don't know some things. β
"Do you want to know how I know about this experience? This may lead to the introduction of a third perspective. β
"yes. The third person you're talking about, but that's-"
