In the dark alley, Yao Yuan and his wife each took an awl, stabbed their buttocks from time to time, jumped a chicken and a dog, and ran straight to the bright place outside.

He was sent out of the street and disappeared, and the couple went home and closed the door, laughing and sleeping on the kang, and no one in this dead alley knew about it.

Besides, Gou Er ran to the street alone, it was already the second watch at this time, and there was not even a figure on the street. Although there was a faint moonlight, I was so dizzy that I couldn't even recognize the way.

Running around the streets, he saw a group of people carrying lanterns from a distance, and knowing that Lu Dao was an officer and soldier on night patrol, he turned around and ran behind.

It happened that the leader of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division tonight was Xu Wen, and he said suspiciously: "What is that?" Get him. ”

The officers and soldiers rushed after him, Gou Er was chased in a hurry, but he couldn't run with a limp leg, and he was exhausted after running for a long time, so he simply stopped and wanted the officers and soldiers to save him, but unfortunately his tongue was gone, and he couldn't speak, and he screamed.

The problem is that he is now not a human or a ghost and still has a tail, and in the eyes of the officers and soldiers, he is a monster that he has never seen before, and the big guy is furious in his heart, and no one dares to come closer.

Dare to shout out who are you? The timid retreated behind his colleagues, and he couldn't hear anything just by seeing the monster open its mouth.

Xu Wen arrived and said: "If a person must be able to speak, he will only call it either a ghost or a monster." We are so yang that we can't get out of our human form if we force him. Let's go up together, fight to the death, and can't be run away by the monster. ”

Gou Eryi was distracted when he heard this, and he ran over to let people see if he was actually a human or not a ghost, and his mouth whined even more fiercely.

When the officers and soldiers saw him rushing over with a fierce look, they panicked in their hearts, and decided that what the boss said was reasonable, lest the monster would hurt someone first, so they stepped forward with courage.

A mess in the night. actually beat Gou Er to the point that his brain was flushed, and he was broken all over his body, and at this time, someone held a lantern and looked at it carefully, only to know that it was not a ghost, but a personal monster.

In an instant, everyone was silent, Xu Wen secretly scolded and frowned: "It is he who seeks death by himself, and he can't complain about us, so he will repay Tianfu." ”

When the sky was slightly bright, someone came to Shuntianfu. He examined the dead body, with blood stains on his lips, no tongue in his mouth, and a mallet in his anus, and recorded all the details one by one and presented them to his boss.

Everyone knew that Lu Dao must have been plotted because of adultery, and the catchers inquired around the city, but there was neither the bitter lord nor the complaint, nor any relatives to claim the body. The last was dragged out of the city and buried on the spot.

Gou Er's parents saw that their son had not returned for many days, thinking that he had gone to a foreign place with a good friend to make a living, and even if he died outside, he was just unlucky.

Early the next morning, Mu Ningxue ordered all the housekeepers to be gathered. Xu Hao said unhappily: "It's about to give birth, don't worry about family affairs, it's not that no one is in charge." ”

Mu Ningxue said: "The county lord who has not left the pavilion lives in our house, and this portal must be taken care of." After all, the garden is too big for anyone to sneak into. ”

Xu Hao deeply believes that the four brothers Li Cheng are all bandits with good martial arts. It wasn't difficult to infiltrate the Xu family; Besides, there is a large group of relatives and guards at home, and it is difficult to guarantee that there are not a few daring ones, in case they hook up with someone in the inner house and become an adulterer, and by the way, how can they rape others?

Even if the odds are not high, you have to be more careful, Xu Hao said: "I'll handle this matter, you don't need to worry about it." ”

Mu Ningxue saw that her husband would be wrong, and said with a wry smile: "It's okay for our family, I'm worried about the next door." Alas! Li Fang has been getting more and more disagreeable recently, and the second sister came to complain yesterday and said that she wanted to move out. ”

Xu Hao asked, "What the hell is going on?" Didn't you marry a few concubines? ”

Mu Ningxue said: "It's hard for me to speak, anyway, the house is full of smoke and miasma all day long, but I can't be known by the princess, and I misunderstand that our family is also a male thief and a female prostitute." The ancients chose to live next to each other, and according to me, they quickly returned the house to him, so that the second sister and his wife and Aunt Lin'an could live a quiet life. ”

Xu Hao nodded, went to the outer house to call Li Dong and the others, and asked, "What's going on with the Li family next door?" ”

Li Dong and Mu Yun glanced at each other, and Wang Yong said in a low voice: "Young Master, there are two uncles involved here, so we don't dare to talk too much." ”

Xu Hao said unhappily: "Uncle, shit, say what's going on." ”

Li Dong hurriedly said: "Actually, it doesn't have much to do with the two uncles, but they are now moving around with Li Fang frequently. Since the original wife died of illness in Fujian, Li Fang has no scruples in acting, and it is like that, after all, he is a young man. ”

Xu Hao somewhat understood, now Li Fang's continuation is the daughter of a local scholarly family in Fujian, surnamed Gou, who bows her eyebrows in front of her husband and has no status, while Princess Lin'an spoils her children too much.

Soon Xu Hao inquired clearly, Li Fang's concubines and maids were about dozens of people, needless to say, these women were all taken in by him, and even the servants in the family did not let go of any of them regardless of their beauty or ugliness, and he liked to appreciate their bare hair and fat and thin.

There are also a lot of drama petty officials in the family, which can be said to be eaten by both men and women, you can only scold him for being too romantic, this is very common nowadays, can outsiders manage it at home? So no one accused Li Fang in front of Xu Hao.

Liu Zhi and Liu Mao have been eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling with Li Fang all day long, which is people's freedom, so Li Dong and they didn't take it seriously and didn't tell Xu Hao.

However, Mu Ningxue thought that her neighbor was so ridiculous, and she was worried that her family would be adversely affected, so she ordered her family to strictly guard the door and not to have anything to do with the Li family.

Xu Hao thought about it and went directly to Qianshoutang, the old lady was very happy to see him coming, and asked with a smile: "Is there anything good about coming here so early?" Is the red leaves and green bamboo going back to Beijing? ”

Xu Hao said: "No! It's for the Li family, grandmother, you can call the second sister to ask, I mean just return the house, and our family will move to a clean place, away from these messy things. ”

The old lady knew in her heart, she hadn't heard Cui Tao complain, as for the mansion, it was originally the Korean Gong Li Shanchang, not the foundation of the Xu family.

"So what do you mean? Are you planning to move back to the countryside? The old lady asked.

Xu Hao said: "I want to choose a piece of uninhabited land in the city, so that I can plan for it, and I don't want to live in luxury." ”

The old lady immediately made a decision and said, "Don't worry about your troubles if you have a lot of things, let your father and your third uncle worry about it." Once you move, you have to worry about so many relatives, and you are more secure than you in this section. ”

Xu Hao said happily: "It's the best, I'm impatient to worry about these things." ”

At this moment, Princess An and Zhu Xianyuan's mother and daughter came over, Xu Hao got up and said, "Hello third aunt!" My sister is fine. ”

Princess An's eyes lit up, and she stepped forward with a smile to look at her nephew for a long time, and praised: "Young hero, the blue is better than the blue, and our Xu family's generation depends on you to take care of it." ”

Zhu Xianyuan said softly: "The slave family has seen my brother. ”

"Hmm." Xu Hao nodded at her with a smile and talked with the mother and daughter.

But next door at this time, Xu Cuitao frowned and listened to her mother-in-law's voice: "The uncle's house is full of unsightly spring paintings, and the bookshelves are full of erotic novels. There were beds everywhere in the attic, and when I wanted to do it, it was a woman who held it down whenever and wherever she wanted. Oh my God, that day I saw with my own eyes that the maids and daughters-in-law were all stripped naked, and more than a dozen people laughed and laughed, playing hide and seek in the garden, and they were punished when they were caught by the uncle. ”

Xu Cuitao said angrily: "It's ridiculous, this family can't be broken, otherwise sooner or later he will be affected, and his reputation will be ruined." Go clean up, go to your mother's house tonight for a while, and buy a house as soon as possible. ”

Another mother-in-law said: "The two aunts of Madame's mother's family are too disagreeable, eating and drinking with the uncle and doing those shameless tricks and little girls in broad daylight, and those little girls sneak into the inner house to laugh with the girls when they are favored." Sooner or later, something will happen to the door and ruin the doorway. ”

Xu Cuitao became more and more unbearable, and said angrily: "I really can't keep it for a moment, my mother-in-law is old and confused, so I don't care about such a disgusting thing?" and that sister-in-law, if she doesn't persuade her, she just lets her husband do whatever she wants? A subordinate and a concubine? ”

Not to mention that Xu Cuitao was shouting to move out of Lu to live, that Yu was born very beautiful, and her husband married a concubine and she talked and laughed freely on her face, without a trace of dissatisfaction, but in fact, she was as jealous in her heart.

She is a very scheming woman, and she understands that even if she quarrels, it won't help, what if her husband turns his face and drops a letter of resignation? Men are rigid and women are soft, so to submit to their husbands, they have to rely on softness to overcome what is just right.

Therefore, the Yu family is kind to everyone, and often gives some small favors, and keeps the daily life in order, so that not only Li Fang praises his wife for being virtuous, but the concubines and others also respect her.

Because of this, the Li family was harmonious, and Princess Lin'an turned a blind eye, so the reputation of the Li family did not spread, and it looked unbearable.

As mentioned earlier, Liu Mao's business is very prosperous, and because a man and Liu Zhi fell out, I don't want the one in the summer to probably feel old and can no longer live by his ass, so he simply took advantage of Liu Mao's unpreparedness and swept away thousands of taels of treasure money.

This put Liu Mao, who was gradually spending money extravagantly, into a predicament, and was scolded by the relapsed Brother Xu Lu, while Liu Zhi was made into trouble because of the fight between Xu Cuiyun and Sister Fan, and he was not a human being inside and out, and he was miserable.

The two of them drank sullen wine in the wine shop together, and they came and went as reconciled as before, and they happened to sit at the same table with Li Fang during the festival, and they smelled like each other.

In order to tie up with Li Fang, they worked hard to find a Yangzhou boy with the surname Quan, who looked more beautiful than a woman, and introduced him to Li Fang, who was full of praise after tasting the taste once.

With Li Fang's funding, the two stores were merged into one, and the middle store was opened up at a high price and made one. opened an elegant bookstore in the middle, which was run by Quan Zhongyu; On the left is still Liu Mao's grocery store, and on the right Liu Zhi opened a spice shop.

The courtyard walls at the back were demolished, and a three-storey building was built, which was named Cuiya Building. Li Fang came to the party when she had nothing to do, and it became a place for the four of them to drink and have fun. (To be continued......)
