Wang Hengzhi and his wife were not unfamiliar with this nephew, so they went to the front yard together!

Zheng Zejiu and Li Tongfu met the two and bowed:

"Huiren meets uncle and aunt!"

"Meijian meets uncle and aunt!"

At this time, Wang Jingzhan, the eldest son of the Wang family, who was the same age as them, also came over. After exchanging pleasantries for a while, they got straight to the point!

"Uncle, aunt, nephew, let me get straight to the point. This time I'm here for my cousin's matter!"

Seeing Zheng Zejiu say this, Wang Hengzhi frowned:

"Could it be that old bastard Xie Chen has come to you for help?"

Zheng Zejiu nodded!

Wang Hengzhi's anger rose again:

"This old man is really good at scheming. He actually found you here!"

After gritting his teeth for a long time, he said:

"Your cousin is injured like this. Although I asked you to intercede for him, there must be a rule. You can't let your cousin suffer this injury in vain!"

Zheng Zejiu remained silent, and Li Tongfu laughed and continued:

"Uncle, how about this? Let the old man bring his son to apologize, and then let them pay two thousand taels of silver to make up for the cost of the medicine for my cousin and show their sincerity. How about this?"

Two thousand taels of silver is actually nothing in the eyes of the aristocratic families, but it is not a small sum either!

Generally speaking in the capital, a decent shop may not be able to earn these two thousand in a year!

Although Wang Hengzhi was a fourth-rank official, he was a child of a poor family who had worked his way up through hard work. His family was not well-off, and his current salary was only a hundred taels a year!

My wife’s dowry is quite a bit, and the house she has managed over the years is in perfect order!

Therefore, he trusted his wife who came from a military family very much, and he also liked to discuss things with his virtuous wife!

Looking up, he saw Yang Zhongling nodding and smiling, then he cleared his throat:

"...The amount of money is not a problem. It's mainly for your sake as a nephew. If I don't give in, I'm afraid your aunt will never forgive me!"

Li Shaofu smiled brightly:

"Everyone knows that you and your aunt have a deep love for each other, which makes many men and women envious...Haha, now that it's settled, the nephews should go and see your cousin before leaving..."

Then Zheng Fangshi came forward and handed over a box containing two thousand taels of silver notes, and Zheng Zejiu put it on the table!

Li Yi came forward again and brought two pots of Huadiao wine and a few packs of dim sum from Yixiangzhai dim sum shop!

"This is what we brothers give to our uncle and aunt!"

The two of them went to see their cousin who was bored at home, and then said goodbye and left!

Changning Marquis Mansion

Lord Xie and Master Xie finally breathed a sigh of relief. Now that the young master had agreed, the matter was most likely settled!

When I think of Wei Ge'er being released from prison, he has to bring people to the door to apologize. According to convention, a figure like the young master who comes forward must be given a silver note of one thousand taels of silver as a thank you afterwards!

Thinking of this, both the father and the son were in a bad mood. Xie Chen knew his own weight, and this was where his career in officialdom ended!

But Brother Lan has been a smart person since he was young. If he was not unlucky, he should have been promoted to the sixth rank when he returned to Beijing this time!

It's all because of Lan Ge'er's wife's incompetence. If she had paid money in advance and asked someone to help Lan Ge'er with everything, he wouldn't be doing such a bad job as a student at the Imperial Academy now!

The father and son sat in the study, Xie Chen's face was stern:

"Brother Lan, what's wrong with your wife? She's been resting for half a month, why isn't she getting better?"

Xie Xuanping: "Father, I went to see her a few days ago. She was seriously injured and the doctor asked her to rest...but this time my fourth sister is gone..."

Xie Chen was speechless and waved his hand:

"Well, let's just take good care of her first and wait until this storm is over before we talk about it!"

The father and son said nothing more and just left!

And Su Qingling, the person they wanted to plot against, was now looking at the people Chunlan bought!

The four second-class girls all looked about thirteen or fourteen years old, and the two boys about twelve or thirteen years old all looked very smart!

Su Qingling looked at the four girls. They were not outstanding in appearance, but their eyes were clear and upright. He felt satisfied!

Seeing the young lady nod, the four of them hurriedly said:

"Please give me your name, Miss!"

It was Chunlan who suggested calling her Miss. Knowing Miss's plan, although she was shocked by her master's audacity, she did not want to object!

"The taller one is called Zhiqin, the shorter one is called Zhiqi, the fatter one is called Zhishu, and the thinner one is called Zhihua! Follow Chunlan and Xiahe to learn some rules first!"

The four of them were delighted when they heard this, and they quickly knelt down to thank her. The name the young lady had given them was so nice, and from now on they no longer had to call her Zhaodi or Daya...

Looking at these two guys again, there is a hint of strength in their eyes. This is something that only those who have some kung fu skills can have!

Su Qingling calmly suppressed the doubts in his heart and asked:

"Where did you two learn martial arts?"

The taller boys saluted:

"We two were originally from the escort agency. Years ago, our family was escorting an escort. When we passed through Taiyue Mountain, we were slaughtered by bandits, and the escort was also robbed!"

"We two didn't go with them, so we were spared. Because we had to pay the master money, the escort agency was disbanded, and we sold all the houses to pay the debt!"

Another went on to say:

"We are penniless. Because of what happened, no one dares to hire us at other escort agencies. We have no other strengths, and we just happened to see that this place is recruiting guards, so we came to give it a try!"

Chunlan answered:

"Miss, the second young master helped to find these two people. We checked their backgrounds and found no mistakes before we dared to bring them here!"

"'My name is Chang Qing, and he is my cousin Chang He. From now on, Miss will be our real master. You point the way, and we will follow you. No ambiguity!"

Su Qingling curled the corners of his lips. He was quite smart and nodded, indicating that he stayed!

"From now on, Chang Qing and Chang He will work with Wang Jie and the others, and we will arrange other things after they are familiar with each other!"

After arranging the people properly, Su Qingling said:

"It's estimated that within two days, Xie Erlang will be released, and we won't be able to have peace for a few days!"

Dongmei was worried while eating Buddha's hand cake:

"Miss, the Second Master wouldn't come to the farm to ask you for money, would he?"

Xia He chuckled:

"I think you are just a scheming person. No matter how shameless you are, a younger uncle wouldn't come to the farm to ask for money from your elder sister-in-law!"

Dongmei blinked:

"Then why are we going to stop being quiet when the Second Master comes out?"

Chunlan shook her head. Dongmei was good at nothing except cooking!

"Madam dotes on the Second Master the most. As long as the Second Master asks for money, she will give it to him. Now that the Young Lady is not in the mansion, they are so greedy to take advantage of the rich... If the mansion only spends money but not money, they will naturally think of the Young Lady!"

Even though Dongmei didn't understand, she was not stupid. After this explanation, she understood and said angrily:

"… Such bastards… What do they think of me as a young lady?… Although I taught you to be polite and courteous, they are really going too far…"

"What they have done to the young lady over the years...If I were them, I would have stuffed my face into my crotch out of shame!"

Seeing that Dongmei was getting more and more impatient, Chunlan quickly interrupted her:

"Come on, if they had any sense of shame, they wouldn't have done those things... Go and make some mung bean drink for us to cool down, and add more sugar!"

Dongmei then responded and went to the kitchen!

"Chunlan, please make some arrangements. We will go to the nearby temple tomorrow!"
