Xiao Jinyan nodded, "Then let's go."

"Now?"

"If you don't go now, can you join in the fun at night?"

Before I could go out, I heard a child running over and shouting, "Shopkeeper Li, your Ergou is fighting with someone outside Widow Li's house. Go and have a look."

Xiao Jinyan said, "This, Ergou Brother won't be too tyrant, right?"

Li Qiuyi said, "You caused the matter, so you have to take care of it." Xiao Jinyan glanced at Li Qingcheng, and Li Qingcheng said I'll go back to the inn to wait for you, and I'll talk about the mass grave tonight.

...

Li Sanniang had been traveling around the world before, but she became a woman of evil. She was so powerful that she killed three husbands in succession. Later, she was disheartened and was suppressed by Wuming, and planted vegetables and sold vegetables to make a living.

The rich man Li was a local rich man in Suzhou. His family had a wealth of fertile land and he ran a pawn shop and a grain shop. He was a rich man. The rich man Li had three sons and was worried about his old man's property. However, the rich man Li lived to be 73 years old in one breath, and he became younger and younger. He had no sign of losing his temper. He married three concubines in two years.

This made the three sons a little anxious. If one day the fourth child was created, the original two-one-one additions would become four people. The three got news from somewhere that Li Sanniang was born to harm her husband. After discussing, they thought it was reliable, so they gave the old man a blow.

The rich man Li had met Li Sanniang. The little widow was very handsome and had long been interested in her. After the three sons made trouble, they nodded immediately and agreed. They gave the matchmaker Song in the town ten taels of benefits and asked her to arrange this matter.

Matchmaker Song wanted to make money, so he went to Li Sanniang's door every few days to instigate him, and he kept talking about Mr. Li's benefits. Li Sanniang refused to agree, so he followed behind every day. Even Li Sanniang sold vegetables at the entrance of the village, Matchmaker Song also went to talk to him.

After a while, everyone in Wuming Town knew it.

When Li Ergou came to Li Sanniang's house, he met matchmaker Song. Song's matchmaker looked down on Li Ergou, the old bachelor, and wanted to earn money from the rich man Li. His words were very ugly. Li Ergou was angry and kicked her in the butt.

Now, matchmaker Song quit and sat at the door of Widow Li and rolled around, wailing all over the sky, attracting neighbors and villagers to watch.

Li Sanniang was bored, and even Li Ergou blamed him. He closed the door and ended up with a clear ear.

When Xiao Jinyan arrived, matchmaker Song cried loudly on the ground, while Li Ergou stood aside, looking at the closed door.

"Murder! You killed Li Ergou this day! I am so old that I was bullied by you in the end. If I don't fiddle with this matter today, I will never finish it with you!"

Xiao Jinyan came to Li Ergou, "Sanniang won't open the door?"

The matchmaker Song knew Xiao Jinyan and knew that he lived in a dilapidated temple and had a good relationship with Li Ergou. So he came over and hugged Xiao Jinyan's thighs and cried, "My surname is Xiao, is this your friend?"

Xiao Jinyan said yes.

Matchmaker Song cried, "Your friend kicked me in the ass. My old woman is so old that she has matched people and has done countless good things. When she is old, she is hit. You have to give me an explanation for this matter!"

Xiao Jinyan asked what you want to say? Why don’t you get up and kick him in the ass?

Matchmaker Song said, "What did I do to kick him? His kick was so heavy that he broke at least three of my ribs, and there was no 100 or 800 taels of silver. We're not going to finish this matter!"

Xiao Jinyan smiled and said, "Does your ribs grow on your butt?"

Matchmaker Song said, "I don't care. If I don't pay any money, we will go to see Mr. Guan and ask him to judge. It will not be a matter of ten or eight taels. You have to count my mental loss and loss of work, at least thirty taels."

Li Ergou took out thirty copper plates from his arms and threw them on the ground, "Just thirty words. Do you want love?"

Matchmaker Song quickly picked up the money from the ground, wiped it clean with her sleeves, put it in her pocket, and lay on the ground again, "My ribs are broken, fellow villagers, you all come and see. A few young people jointly bullied me, an old woman, it is hard tolerate!"

Li Sanniang looked out through the crack in the door and saw more than a dozen people standing at the door. She was so angry that she brought out a basin of foot washing water, opened the door, and poured it on matchmaker Song, "You shameless guy, it's okay if you are shameless, you have lost your face."

When the matchmaker Song saw Li Sanniang coming out, he quickly changed his expression, "Sanniang, you are not young anymore. The rich man Li's family wants a house with a house, and he needs a land, and he will eat and drink delicious food when he goes there. It is better than selling vegetables here. Moreover, he has three sons, and when he gets old, there will be someone to be filial! There are such good things in the world, and there is nowhere to look for them while playing lanterns, and even my old woman is moved."

Li Sanniang said, "Then you go!"

"I think, the Li family is asking for you."

Li Sanniang ignored her, came to Li Ergou, and said with a calm face: "What are you doing here?"

Li Ergou said word by word, "I want to marry you."

Li Sanniang asked, "Do you have money?"

Li Ergou opened the bag in his arms, with more than a dozen strings of copper coins and a few pieces of broken silver. He said, "This money is saved by me over the years, a total of thirty taels. You can count it."

Li Sanniang threw the package on the ground, "Who cares about your stinky money?"

Li Ergou was stunned and said, "Sanniang, I washed all the money with boiling water, and it was not smelly at all. Sanniang, I know I am not worthy of you, but I have liked you for a long time. Don't worry, my old Li has promised to pass on the recipe of Chishui wine and his doorstep to me. After we get married, I will run this wine shop, which will allow you to live a good life."

Li Sanniang's eyes were a little complicated. Over the years, Li Ergou had been kind to her, so she could naturally feel that she was an ominous person. Her three husbands she married were killed by her and had long been given up on remarriage. However, today Li Ergou asked her for marriage in front of so many people, which made her heart ripples again.

However, reason made her restrain her emotions. She held back tears in her eyes and said, "Ergou, are you stupid?"

Li Ergou scratched his head, "I'm a little stupid, but I'm not stupid at all."

Li Sanniang was still hesitating, and a commotion came from outside the door. A young man in a gorgeous dress in silk and satin squeezed in with five or six servants.

When the matchmaker Song saw the visitor, he hurriedly came forward, "Master Li San, what wind has blown you." This person is Li Haogu, the third son of the rich man Li.

Li Haogu said: "Matchmaker Song, how did my father tell you to do? I have received the money, so it won't work." He saw that Matchmaker Song was wet and said strangely, "What, have you taken a shower? Why is this smell wrong on your body?"

Someone who is interested in the fun smiled and said, "That's not right. Is this right when I take a bath with foot water?"

Matchmaker Song scolded, "Zhang Sanlai, you speak with some moral character! Otherwise, don't blame me for telling you about the wall that is climbing in the middle of the night!"

Zhang Sanlai laughed and said, "We are half a dozen, no one can tell anyone. Matchmaker Song, even if I climb to the wall, I can't climb to your house!"

Li Haogu pinched his nose and asked, "How is the matter done?"

Matchmaker Song said: "Isn't this talking to Sanniang? Sanniang agreed and was discussing finding a lucky day to marry. Do you think so, Sanniang?" The last sentence was said to Li Sanniang.

Li Sanniang sneered, "I want to marry you, but I didn't agree."

Li Haogu said calmly, "I have received all the betrothal gifts, are there anyone who regrets it?"

Li Sanniang said, "When did I accept your betrothal gift?"

When the matchmaker Song heard this, her face changed and she looked embarrassed, "San Young Master, what about this matter, you can actually say something." She said, while winking at Li Sanniang. Li Sanniang deliberately pretended not to see it and turned her head.

"Sanniang, you're saying something."

Li Ergou came to the middle of the two and blocked Li Sanniang behind him. Li Haogu looked at him, "Who are you?" Li Ergou refused to give in and looked at him, "I am Li Ergou, Sanniang's man."

Li Haogu laughed loudly, and several servants also laughed.

"Li Ergou, tsk, the name is good and he is not very brave." He pushed Li Ergou with his hand. Li Ergou was burly. Although he could not do martial arts, he was also strong. Li Haogu's push did not push, but instead took two steps back.

A servant said, "San Young Master, this guy is ungrateful, and he dares to rob him of stepmother with you. As long as you say something, we will destroy him immediately."

The Li family was used to being rampant in the city and did not see this man selling wine. Li Ergou clenched his fists, his eyes were full of anger, and he forced himself to not have an attack.

Li Haogu frowned and said, "Don't worry, our Li family is a scholarly family and a family of etiquette. We should be convinced by reason and morality when doing things. We are not green forest robbers in the mountains, so don't be beaten and killed at any time."

Li Haogu said again, "Li Sanniang, you took the money from the Li family but didn't enter the Li family's door. Even if you go to the yamen, you can't argue. You have two choices now. First, follow the Li family obediently and be a mother for me. Second, you will double the betrothal gift of our ten taels of gold."

Li Ergou said coldly, "Sanniang said that confiscation of money means confiscating money. You have two choices now. First, go back wherever you come from. Second, there is still half a basin of foot washing water here. After you drink it, go wherever you come from."

Li Haogu was furious and said, "Kill him! I have someone in the government office, and I will be responsible if something happens!"

Those servants had long disliked Li Ergou. When they heard the third young master's order, they rolled up their sleeves and rushed up. Li Ergou had never practiced martial arts, but they were in good health. Those servants had only learned fake moves for a few days. Five or six people beat one, but they didn't get any advantage. In an instant, three of them were knocked down by Li Ergou.

The other people used all their tricks, swung their fists, and fought against Li Ergou.

The servant who fell to the ground just now got up and quietly came behind Li Ergou. He suddenly took out a dagger from his arms and stabbed him in the back of his heart.

When Xiao Jinyan discovered it, there was no time to stop it, and he shouted, "Be careful!" He snatched over and wanted to stop the man.

When the dagger was about to stab Li Ergou, Li Sanniang heard a delicate scolding, and took a step, and walked sideways to the man's side, kicked him flatly, and kicked him on the man's wrist.

Dang!

The dagger landed on the ground.

Li Sanniang was also a man in the world back then. If she didn't take action, she would have to do it. Once she made a move, she would have a sharp and she would kick the five or six people over to the ground. The people lie on the ground and cry.

Li Sanniang came to Li Haogu.

Li Haogu was so scared that no one looked shy. He didn't expect that Sanniang could even be good at martial arts here. He retreated repeatedly and said, "Don't do anything randomly, this is Suzhou Prefecture!"

Li Sanniang sneered, "Aren't you someone in the government?"

Li Haogudao, "I'm joking, don't take it seriously, it doesn't matter much. Mr. Li, the yamen gatekeeper, is my second uncle."

"You just want me to be your stepmother?"

Li Haogu smiled flatteringly and said: "Actually nothing. Isn't this a fondness to your reputation as a wise man? I want to invite you, the great god, to be happy for my old man."

Li Sanniang is most taboo to others to mention this matter and kick Li Haogu out of the distance.

"roll!"

Li Haogu got up and ran away in shame with a few servants.

Li Sanniang came to matchmaker Song, "Matchmaker Song!"

Matchmaker Song laughed and said, "Sanniang, I was joking about what I said a few days ago. I turned around and sent the betrothal gift to the Li family. Look, it's not too early, and I have to go home to cook. You can do it first!"

Li Sanniang looked around and saw that everyone was still watching. She said angrily, "What are you looking at? You won't leave yet!"

Everyone saw Li Sanniang's methods and dispersed one after another.

Only Li Ergou and Xiao Jinyan were left, standing aside.

Li Sanniang turned around and went back to the room, and Li Ergou said, "Sanniang!"

Li Sanniang said, "You go too. Don't let me see you again!"

With a bang, the door closed.
