Great Imperial Merchant

Although there was no need to open a shop, Yang Zhongyuan woke up early the next morning.

He turned his head to look at Cheng Weizhe, and saw that he was in a deep sleep, but his brows were not relaxed, as if he was having a nightmare.

Yang Zhongyuan sighed, he knew that Cheng Weizhe must not have slept well all night, those bruises on his body must be very painful, he couldn't turn over, so he had to sleep on his back, it was really difficult for him.

Dr. Li simply prescribed something to soothe the nerves and help sleep, otherwise Cheng Weizhe would not want to sleep.

Yang Zhongyuan got up lightly. He simply put on his outer robe and walked outside the house with the jacket in his hand.

The winter morning in Danluo was extremely cold, so Yang Zhongyuan took two pieces of silver carbon with iron tongs and went back to the house, and gently threw them into the charcoal basin.

Silver filament carbon is the best carbon in Danluo. Burning it in the winter house is tasteless and smoke-free, very comfortable.

When I have my own house in the future, I must burn the earth dragon, Yang Zhongyuan thought so.

He boiled hot water for washing and turned on the stove.Yesterday he had already discussed with Cheng Weizhe that he would find someone to clean up all the disused tables and chairs in the noodle shop, so he would not open the shop again, let himself have a rest first, so that he could make more plans for the days to come.

He thought that after the sun came out, he would go to the vegetable market to buy some stick bones and come back to make soup for Cheng Weizhe. He simply didn't have to be busy with his livelihood, and he could only cook these three meals all day long, and he could do whatever he wanted.

Not long after, the boiling water boiled, Yang Zhongyuan washed his face and brushed his teeth while it was hot, and was about to wash rice and cook porridge, when he turned around, he saw Liu Catcher standing outside the shop and looking at him.

"Morning head Liu? Come and tell us when the trial will take place?" Yang Zhongyuan said with a very polite attitude and a smile.

Liu Butou looked embarrassed, the snow outside melted all over the ground, he looked wet and looked extremely haggard.

"Xiao Yang, I have something to tell you." Catcher Liu hesitated to speak for a long time, and finally said so.

Seeing him like this, Yang Zhongyuan couldn't help but thumped in his heart, but his face remained calm, and he still smiled and said: "What's the matter?"

Seeing his kind attitude, Catcher Liu felt even more uncomfortable, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "I'm really sorry, at midnight yesterday, the military adviser ran out of the prison in the middle of the night, and the policemen searched all night, but they couldn't find it."

"What? The government prison is so unreliable? Didn't the tiger head run away?" The smile on Yang Zhongyuan's face receded, and his voice lowered.

Liu Butou felt a little guilty when he saw it. Yesterday he advised the two young people to tell the truth to the end, but the next day he told people that a prisoner in the prison escaped. No one would be happy to hear such a thing. where to go.

"No, no, the tiger head is still there. There was a reason for what happened yesterday. Liu can only say sorry. We will do our best to search and arrest him as soon as possible." Liu Baotou clasped his fists.

Yang Zhongyuan sighed, his face full of depression: "My shop can no longer do business. Last night, Ah Zhe was in pain all night, and he didn't close his eyes until dawn. Liu Baotou, you said we two So, who did you offend?"

Liu Butou was speechless by what he said, so he could only sigh.

In fact, they knew exactly who they had provoked, but it was clear, but they couldn't say it clearly.

Even if the Cheng family is only engaged in business, they are Danluo's big family after all. With so many years of relationship, unless there is very clear evidence presented in court, everything else is empty talk.

Yang Zhongyuan saw that Catcher Liu didn't speak, and knew that he couldn't speak too much, so he forced a smile and said, "Oh, look at me, I forget etiquette when I get anxious, it's cold outside this early in the morning, please hurry up." Sit inside and have breakfast together."

"No, Liu just came here to tell you about the situation. As for when the trial will start, we have to wait for the military adviser to find it. If you can't find it in a while, it will take three days before you are invited to finalize the case. Breakfast That's enough, I have to rush back to work, thank you Brother Xiao Yang."

Yang Zhongyuan hurriedly chased him out to see him off, all the way to the entrance of Xueta Alley, and then came back to the shop.

At noon, Yang Zhongyuan carefully stewed a large pot of stick bone soup, and made vinegared cabbage and stewed potatoes with eggplant. The staple food was served with red bean rice, which nourished qi and blood, and had an excellent taste.

Although Cheng Weizhe's arms and legs were seriously injured, he didn't hurt his muscles or bones. He woke up in the morning and went out of the yard by himself. Yang Zhongyuan didn't let him do anything, so he could only sit in the shop and teach Xu Xiaotian to read.

The bruises on his face still looked quite glaring after one night, Xu Xiaotian touched him cautiously: "Uncle Zhe, I will learn martial arts hard in the future, and I will help you beat bad guys."

Cheng Weizhe had a wound on the corner of his mouth, he didn't dare to smile, but nodded seriously: "Okay, Uncle Zhe is waiting for you to protect me."

Even though something like that happened yesterday, the whole family was fine, so both Zhou Quanxu and Xu Xiaotian were relatively relaxed, not as nervous as the day before.

When they finished their meal and were strolling around the shop to digest their food, a servant from the Cheng family suddenly came to the door and knelt straight on the street: "Young master, master, please go back, come with me."

What has become of this?Seeing him like this, Cheng Weizhe frowned.

Passers-by who didn't know what happened yesterday, thought that something serious happened to the Cheng family, slowed down and talked a lot.

There was someone nearby who knew, so he started to tell others, inside and outside the words, saying that Cheng Weizhe and Yang Zhongyuan were unlucky, and they didn't know who they had offended to bring about such a disaster.

As for who provoked this, wouldn't someone come to the door today?

Cheng Weizhe waved to Xu Xiaotian, asked him to help him up, and walked slowly to the door of the shop.

Under the sun, the bruises on his face were clearly visible, and after walking a few steps, his face was covered with sweat.The people passing by didn't expect him to be beaten like this, and they talked about it all at once, saying everything.

Cheng Weizhe glanced at it, and then raised his voice: "Who taught you to be so unruly, you just kneel down straight without saying a word, and you still think I'm punishing you. The shop was smashed into a mess yesterday, and I was also beaten." I was seriously injured, and now even if you want me to go back, I don't have the energy to go back. Please explain clearly, why do you want me to go back as a patient?"

In fact, that boy was also smart. What Bai Xiaozhu told him was that if Cheng Weizhe didn't invite him back, he would drive him home. He didn't want to be driven back. Zhe has one more subject to talk about.

Now that Cheng Weizhe said this, the young servant had no choice but to stand up silently, and tremblingly said: "Young master, there is indeed something important at home. The master said that you have to go back no matter what, otherwise you will drive me home. Young master, young man Please, come back with me."

"There are three masters in the family, which one are you talking about?" Cheng Weizhe said again.

Although the young man has been in the Cheng family for many years, he is only a young man who has not yet become weak. Hearing Cheng Weizhe's words, he hurriedly said: "It's Master Zhu."

After he finished speaking, there was an uproar all around.Who didn't know that Bai Xiaozhu didn't like him as the eldest son of the long house, and tried his best to run him out, and now that he was asked to go back, there might be something nasty waiting for him.

At that moment, a well-meaning person shouted: "Brother Cheng, you are so sick, go home and rest, and don't go back to that big house."

Cheng Weizhe smiled and cupped his hands at him, his smile was full of far-fetchedness: "After all, I am a descendant of the Cheng family. The master told me to go back. I must go back. Thank you."

After he finished speaking, he beckoned the young man to enter the shop: "Did you, Mr. Zhu, say that you will invite me back no matter what?"

Seeing that he seemed to agree, the young man hurriedly said happily: "Yes, young master, can you go back?"

Cheng Weizhe wanted to laugh, but the corners of his mouth hurt so badly, so he could only endure it and said, "Go to the carriage station, order the best carriage to pick me up, and I'll go back."

"Thank you, Eldest Young Master, I'll go now." After finishing speaking, the young man ran out quickly, fearing that he would regret it if he was too late.

Yang Zhongyuan didn't speak the whole time, until the servant disappeared, and he said: "I'll accompany you back."

Cheng Weizhe looked up at him in surprise, and saw that Yang Zhongyuan's face was full of determination, so he could only sigh: "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, I'll listen to you."

"Ah, that's right. Something happened on our side. Maybe Master could hear the rumor when he got up early to buy vegetables. Why don't we find a little girl to go over and inform him, so he can't keep worrying about us."

Cheng Weizhe nodded: "It's better for you to be thoughtful and ask Ermao to go, he knows where Master's house is."

After he finished speaking, he paused and said to Zhou Quanxu: "Uncle Quan, we are not here at the moment, I have to trouble you to go to the tea shop to watch. Take Xiaotian too, there are too many people there, no one would dare to go there Troubled."

"Don't worry both of you, I can still do this." Zhou Quanxu replied seriously.

Maybe the boy was really scared, or maybe the Cheng family was in a hurry, anyway, it took only a moment for a gleaming golden carriage to stop at the door of the shop.

Cheng Weizhe looked at the gorgeous decoration, but seemed very satisfied: "Okay, not bad, very beautiful."

Yang Zhongyuan stared blankly at him, then at the carriage, not knowing what to say.

This is really, too colorful.

Can those rose-red camellia silk flowers on it be removed...?

But before he could express any opinion, Cheng Weizhe had already pulled him to the side of the carriage. Yang Zhongyuan had to get on the carriage first, and then bent down to help him up.

The most expensive one is different. The cushions inside are all embroidered, which looks really delicate.

Cheng Weizhe didn't go inside either, and sat upright at the door of the carriage. He didn't let the boy close the door, but said, "Calm down, brother coachman, please walk slowly, I don't feel well."

The coachman nodded and agreed readily.

So in the afternoon of this day, the common people who had just finished eating and got off work saw the eldest young master of the Cheng family returning to the Cheng family in a special carriage, and thought of the incident that happened in Xueta Lane yesterday. A farce, this occasional encounter has become a new topic of conversation after dinner.

Xueta Lane is not too far from Zixin Lane, even if the driver drives slowly, he will arrive outside the gate of Cheng's house in a moment.

As if knowing that Cheng Weizhe was injured, as soon as he and Yang Zhongyuan got out of the carriage, a big butler hurried out from inside and asked Cheng Weizhe to take two of them into the inner house.

Cheng Weizhe ignored him, and let Yang Zhongyuan limped and helped him step over Cheng Cheng's high front teeth slowly.

The big housekeeper was a little embarrassed, but he still followed in, and said again: "Please come in in the sedan chair, young master. You are injured, so don't work too hard."

Cheng Weizhe turned his head to look at him, since he came in only for a moment, he has noticed all the changes in the Cheng family. It seems that this time things may really have a turning point.

With his right hand, he gently smoothed the broken hair around Yang Zhongyuan's ear, and then said slowly: "Xiao Yuan is also injured, what should he do? If I sit and walk with him, I will feel bad."
