Chapter 2 Applying both hard and soft
Lu Jinping said: "You have to have money to pay back the money. Now the money I earn every day is enough for our master and servant to eat. You can't kill the chicken to get eggs and take away our food, right?"
"Who is the one who ruins your copper coins?" Fatty Yao next to him stared at his copper bell-like eyes and said, "You owe us about 60,000 yuan! - I don't say anything, sell the old house to pay off the debt! Otherwise, today will not be over!"
"Not selling!" Lu Jinping said expressionlessly, "That old house is the only ancestral property passed down by my great-grandfather. It was rewarded by the great-grandfather Emperor Taizong. It is a symbol of my title. It cannot be sold! This is what the Grand Master of the Governor of Tongzhou said in person. You also heard it at that time."
Fat Yao had a bad temper. When Lu Jinping heard that he insisted on selling his old house, he was so angry that he stretched out his hand and swept all the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table to the ground. Then he reached out to grab Lu Jinping's collar. Ye Qingqing next to him reached out with a small hand, grabbed his arm with a bang, and then showed his legs and flew up, hitting his weakness, making him squat on the ground with a chubby pain.
"You slut, how dare you do it?" Bald head Zhang was so angry that his white beard shook, "Beat this slut to death!"
Several gangsters immediately swung their fists and beat Ye Qingqing. Ye Qingqing's petite body was like a butterfly flying, dodging freely among the fists and feet of several people. From time to time, the hit person would definitely scream and fall to the ground. In a moment, several gangsters were knocked to the ground by her, and the pain could not be aroused.
Baldhead Zhang was shocked, and quickly took several steps back, pointed at Lu Jinping and said angrily: "You, you slut, you are a slut, do you care about it?"
The reason why Lu Jinping is not afraid of being afraid of them being tough is that his personal maid Ye Qingqing has martial arts skills and is quite good.
When Lu Jinping's parents were still alive, although their family was still in ruins, they still had some land. They even hired a guard guard to protect their family. Ye Qingqing started to be a Lu Jinping's book boy at the age of six or seven. Although she was petite, she liked to dance with guns and sticks. After Lu Jinping's parents found out, they discussed and thought that their son was devoted to studying and had no time to learn martial arts. However, if the maid Shutong around him had martial arts skills, he could better protect his son's safety, so he formally asked the dragon's head to teach Ye Qingqing's martial arts skills.
However, they didn't know that the Dragon Boat Head was not an ordinary Dragon Boat Head, and he was also a top-notch master in the world. He was saddened by a family change and went away to the Lu family to work as a guardian. Under the entrusted by the Lu family, he saw the young Ye Qingqing, who was smart and clever, and liked it very much, so he treated her like a daughter and taught her martial arts carefully. It was not until Lu Jinping's parents died of illness one after another. The Lu family spent all their savings to treat the disease and had no money to hire the guardian again. The Dragon Boat Head left and returned to his hometown. At that time, Ye Qingqing had already obtained the true teachings of the Dragon Boat Head.
Lu Jinping glanced at Fatty Yao and the gangsters lying on the ground, and sneered: "You are the ones who do it first. My maid is a loyal protector. Why should I care?"
"You! OK, you bastard, you don't pay back the money, and you'll beat the slaves! Let's find a place to judge the manager!" The bald man opened his mouth and shouted, saying that he wanted to judge the manager, but he stood there motionless.
Lu Jinping had already seen two door-guarding Zaoli standing at the door at the Tongzhou Yamen next to him watching the fun, but he didn't come to dissuade him. He pointed to the Yamen and said to the bald head: "Here, there is the Yamen over there, and the Grand Master of the Governor is inside. Why don't you go and talk to him?"
Bald Head Zhang and the others went to the yamen to sue Lu Jinping, the lord Lu Jinping, but they were scolded by the governor and kicked out of the lobby by the yamen runners. How could they dare to go to the yamen again for this? Hearing that Lu Jinping was fearless, his eyes rolled a few times, changed his blue face to a pitiful look, took two steps forward, pretending to be about to kneel down.
Fatty Yao had already gotten up, and saw this, quickly supported him and said in panic: "Brother, what are you doing? Why are you kneeling down to this kid?"
"There is no way, I can't beat you, and I can't complain. No one can handle the complaint. What else can I do if I don't kneel down? The family is almost out of stock, so I hope he sells the old house and pays off my debts. It's time to buy rice and salt to support my family. He refuses, so I kneel to death in front of him. Anyway, the whole family is dead..." While saying, he squeezed his eyes hard, trying to squeeze out a few drops of tears, but he didn't even have half of them. He could only use his sleeves to cover his face and howl.
"Can your family lose their money?" Lu Jinping sneered, "When saying this, first wipe off the oily stains on the corner of your mouth. You won't even act. The land I sold in my family was bought by you, and the price was very low. Don't think I don't know. You instigated me to sell my property to bribe, and borrowed usury from you and used the old house as collateral. You are instigating people to commit crimes! - You must talk about this account well, I can tell you well, if you want to do whatever you want, I will do what you want!"
After hearing this, Bald-headed Zhang and Fatty Yao slowly disappeared with sadness and pity on their faces. They stood up straight, stared at Lu Jinping viciously, and gritted their teeth and said, "We have some ways to make you bow your head. If you are sure to sell the old house, you will see if you don't believe it! - Let's go!"
After saying a few harsh words, Baldhead turned around and walked forward. Fatty Yao and the gangsters hurriedly got up and limped and followed behind.
After walking a while, suddenly, Fatty Yao saw a notice on the wall, and a large-sleeved and round-waisted servant was guarding him. He couldn't help but be happy.
The notice was posted by a retired official in Beijing to search for a famous doctor for his critically ill daughter. The retired official in Beijing was named Gao, who was once a fourth-rank minister of the Ministry of Personnel. After retirement, he did not like to live in the capital. He thought it was too noisy, but liked Tongzhou Prefecture, not far from Mount Hua, so he bought a house here to settle down. He had no children, only one daughter, he had a wife and two concubines, and this daughter was born to the youngest concubine, and she loved it like a treasure. A few months ago, she had a strange disease and invited many doctors to see her. Even the imperial doctors in the palace paid a lot of money to see her, but they were not cured.
Seeing that his baby daughter was dying, Old Master Gao posted a notice to search for famous doctors who could cure his daughter's strange diseases, including Taoists who do rituals. As long as he could cure his daughter's illness, there would be a great reward. If he was young and unmarried, as long as he was willing, he could recruit a son-in-law to inherit the Gao family's business in the future.
This condition is too generous, because Old Master Gao once served as the Minister of Personnel and was able to become his son-in-law, for ordinary people, it was like a step ahead of the ordinary people. Therefore, there were many Taoist priests who announced the list of doctors to treat him, including many young ones, who went to his parents for this trick.
Unfortunately, none of these people could cure the Gao family's illness. Old Master Gao was irritable and powerful. Although he retired, his temper never changed. He scolded all the doctors and Taoists who could not cure the disease and beat them up. There were even a few doctors with poor medical skills and Taoist priests who were not well-versed in trouble and Taoist priests who had no Taoism were sent directly to the yamen to punish him. In this way, no one dared to announce the list again.
When Fatty Yao saw this notice, he couldn't help but turn his eyes and think of an idea to punish Lu Jinping. He immediately turned to his bald head and opened his ear and muttered a few words.
Bald head Zhang nodded repeatedly when he heard this, and said, "Okay! This method is good. That little bastard is too unreasonable. Treat him well. This time, even the governor will not be able to protect him! Hahaha, you guys hurry up and do it!"
Fatty Yao agreed and hurried back and called a maid. The maid was about the same height as the maid of Lu Jinping's maid Ye Qingqing. After deliberately dressing up, her dress was the same as her dress. Fatty Yao explained what she wanted to do, so she waited in the alley not far from Lu Jinping's stall.
Finally, he saw that Ye Qingqing was convenient, so Fatty Yao quickly asked the little maid to come out with him and walked towards the notice posted by Mr. Gao.
Fatty Yao walked in front first, and the little maid followed behind. Fatty Yao walked to the side of the clerk and laughed and said, "Brother, I have something to ask you, don't you know what's convenient?"
The servant turned around and looked at him: "What's the matter?"
"That's right. I've learned some medical skills since elementary school and know some folk remedies..."
Fatty Yao said slowly and charmingly. Just as the clerk turned around and talked to Fatty Yao, the little maid quickly stepped up, lifted the notice from the wall, and ran away with it.
The servants did not realize that Fatty Yao waited for him to run for a while before pointing at the maid and said, "Huh? Why did she reveal the notice?"
The servant then realized that he screamed and chased after him. The maid had already run to Lu Jinping's stall, stuffed the notice into Lu Jinping's arms, then turned around and rushed into the alley where Ye Qingqing had entered.
