Chapter 117 Rumors
Fu Yanqing asked: "You said this boy is your husband-in-law?"
Zhao Ningxiu nodded heavily and said: "Exactly!"
"Have you ever gotten engaged?"
"The engagement has not yet been made. My niece will tell her parents when she comes back. As soon as she chooses a good day, she will ask him to come to propose marriage."
Fu Yanqing curled his lips and smiled, "That's not the case. After all, your family is also a family of officials. I'm afraid Brother Zhao looks down on this boy with a business background. For marriage matters, you should listen to the advice of your parents and the matchmaker. A good niece should listen to her uncle's advice.
Hurry up and end it with him, don't ruin the family tradition, otherwise it will be difficult for Brother Zhao to face his colleagues in the future."
"You, I, um, it's no longer up to me whether my father agrees or not!" Zhao Ningxiu pointed at Xu Xian with a rolling pin, "I already have a physical relationship with him, and we have been together for two months now.
She is pregnant, and if you kill him, you will hurt the old relationship with my father."
Zhao Ningxiu touched her flat belly as she spoke, but that location seemed to be her stomach.
"Haha... niece Xian is really quick to talk." Fu Yanqing curled her lips and said with a smile, "I don't believe it!"
Zhao Ningxiu replied loudly: "Whether Uncle Fu believes it or not, Xu Xian and I have a child anyway, you can't kill him..."
With a bang, the door of the Fu family was knocked open, and then the soldiers from the Red Scarf City rushed in, but they were not in a hurry to save people. They shouted and asked one by one: "Who and we both have a baby now?"
There is also a banquet to enjoy."
Seeing that the soldiers from the Red Scarf Capital had already rushed in, Fu Yanqing did not let anyone stop him. It was not that he couldn't deal with it but that he didn't want to lose big at the expense of small things.
Luo Fubang looked at the wounds on Xu Xian's body and said, "The blow was really cruel. Was it the old man who hit him?"
"Don't say it's useless. If you wrap this up, you won't get a convulsion." Wu Liang got a tattered cloak from nowhere and wrapped it around Xu Xian. He pinched the ribbon at the collar, "I always thought you were a decent person."
Man, when did you and the female shopkeeper have a child? I've been married for more than half a year, and my mother-in-law's belly hasn't moved yet. But we have to agree in advance that whether you get married or have a baby, I will give you a total of one hundred cash as a gift.
"
Dakui stretched out two fingers and said: "I only have eighty coins to spend. I have to eat enough for two banquets."
"If you want to have a banquet, you don't have to wait until I get married and have a son. I can go there today! I can't let my brothers go in vain as a host."
When everyone in the Red Scarf City heard this, they immediately burst into cheers. They all drooled and surrounded Xu Xian as he walked out, wishing they could eat up all his wealth.
Xu Xian put away his cloak and turned to look at Fu Yanqing, "Thank you very much, King Wei, for today's gift. Xu will definitely repay it twice as much in the future!"
"Haha..." Fu Yanqing laughed and said, "I'm starting to like you a little bit. I'm waiting for you." Then he waved to the sword-wielding soldiers and said, "Get out of the way and let them go!"
Xu Xian was injured, so Yin Simiao took him back to Liuhewan. Zhao Ningxiu also went with him because he wanted to take care of the little silkworm. Everyone in the Red Scarf City rushed to Changle Tower to eat and drink. If the food and wine were not enough, they would go there.
You can buy it at other hotels and pay at their own store.
It's easy to talk too much when you drink too much. The drunk Da Kui grabbed Aunt Liu who was serving the food and asked: "Aunt Liu, when did you get along with the female shopkeeper?"
"What! Xu Dalang is in love with the Zhao family's young lady?"
"Aunt Liu, you don't know anything when you stay with the female shopkeeper in a restaurant all day, right? The two of you already have a child."
"What are you talking about! Xu Dalang and the Zhao family's wife are in love? They even have children? Why don't I know at all!"
"Aunt Liu, you are really old and your eyesight is dazzled. You didn't see that the female shopkeeper's belly has grown a lot. It must be four months at least. This is what the female shopkeeper said herself and cannot be false."
"Ah!" A piercing scream suddenly erupted from the door, and Gillian ran towards her bank in panic, "Dad, the Zhao family's little bitch seduced Brother Xian, and now she is pregnant with five children.
It’s a month!”
Aunt Liu also quickly took off her apron, "No, I have to go back to Liuhe Bay and take a look!"
Gillian knows, which means everyone in Ma Xing Street knows, and Aunt Liu knows, which means everyone in Liuhewan knows. Rumors spread very quickly like the wind, especially when the male protagonist killed Jiedu.
Xu Xian, who has a good reputation, is not far behind. She is a female devil who is good at beating people with a rolling pin on Ma Xing Street.
So when Zhao Kuangyin went to the government office that evening, he heard the following conversation between Cui Jiuzheng and his four heavenly kings, "Do you know why Dutou didn't come to the government office today?"
"Didn't he go to the palace to be on duty?"
"Of course not. The reason Xu Dutou didn't come to the government office today is because he got close to Zhao Junshi's girl and even had a baby. Today, Zhao Junshi's girl is giving birth and Dutou is going to be a father.
Be thoughtful and on duty!”
"No, I heard that I am seven months pregnant."
"I heard it's eight months."
"This morning Zhao Jun sent his sister to the Yamen to look for Xu Dutou. Her belly is very tall. It must be nine months old at least."
"That must be premature birth! Zhang Deaf, Zhang Deaf, listen to what others say."
But Zhang Deaf looked at the people behind him and said, "Zhao Jun has sent an official to the Yamen."
Zhao Kuangyin grabbed Cui Jiu by the collar and scolded: "What are you making up!"
Cui Jiu said sarcastically: "Mr. Zhao, please don't misunderstand us. We are not talking nonsense. This is what green-skinned gangsters say when doing small business in the market. If you don't believe me, you can ask. Some people say it's Xu Du."
He caused trouble to your sister after getting drunk. Some people say that your sister put medicine in the wine to seduce Xu Dutou. The charming young lady of Changlong Silver House saw it with her own eyes... Ouch!"
Zhao Kuangyin slapped Cui Jiu to the ground, raised his leg and kicked the Four Heavenly Kings over, "If you dare to chew your tongue again, I will skin you!"
Zhao Kuangyin lives at home every day. He doesn't know whether Zhao Ningxiu is pregnant yet, but he still feels uneasy. Especially since Zhao Ningxiu has recently been married to Zhao Hongyin, who is the son of Zhao Hongyin's old friend in Luoyang, named Mi Defu.
It sounds like they are a good family with a good family background, but they cannot let rumors spoil this good marriage.
Although the city is stormy outside, the protagonist of the rumor is very stable. He is lying on the bed half wearing only a short hakama, looking at the yellowing sunset outside the window, his expression is stunned and motionless, and several blood stains on his chest have already healed.
The scabs look like fishing nets.
Yin Simiao stretched his neck and came over to take a look at the wound, "It's almost done. Clean it with concentrated salt water and then apply medicine."
As he spoke, he took the large bowl of salt water from the side and gently wiped the wound with a fine linen cloth. Logically speaking, Xu Xian should be grinning and screaming in pain at this moment, but the strange thing was that he remained indifferent and silent.
.
Lao Zhang pulled Yin Simiao aside and whispered: "I don't think there's anything serious about his injuries, but I'm afraid there's something wrong with him in his heart. He's been like this silently for almost a day, so he's stupid."
"That's not true. If you don't look at him, his eyes are still rolling. He is probably thinking about something. Don't worry when I'm here!"
Yin Simiao took out a paper bag from the medicine box. Inside was the holy healing medicine he had prepared. It used plant ash and quicklime as the main ingredients, along with Angelica sinensis, Tianqi, and Codonopsis pilosula. It has the best effect of reducing swelling and activating blood circulation.
