Fortunate Young Gentleman
Chapter 40 Debts owed
Peng Chen is a very strange person. He actually carries an iron chain with him.
Tangning wondered if this guy who always had a dead look on his face had any special hobbies.
It's an iron chain, not a rope------This is a special hobby among special hobbies.
The cold iron chain was wrapped around his neck, and the fat man was frightened.
When he came in just now, he didn't notice the official in the yard. He was frightened and panicked, "I'm not guilty, what are you going to do..."
Peng Chen looked at him and said expressionlessly: "You can save this sentence to tell Mr. Zhong."
The crime of insulting an official of the imperial court, no matter how big or small, is definitely enough to scare people.
"I, I didn't mean to..."
"I do not know……"
"Spare your life, my lord, spare your life!"
…
The fat man's face turned pale with fear. Peng Chen felt it was noisy and dragged him out.
Peng Chen suddenly took out an iron chain. Not only the fat man was frightened, but also the man and the woman.
The woman looked at Tang Ning, then at the door, and opened her mouth: "Xiao Ning, this..."
Tang Ning looked at her and said, "Next time he dares to cause trouble, go to the Yamen and sue him. If you arrest him a few times, he will become honest."
The man said: "His father is member Zheng. Will the Yamen arrest him for such a trivial matter?"
"Don't be afraid, there is someone in our yamen." Tangning smiled and said, "Don't say it's him, even his father can be caught..."
The man then remembered that Tang Ning's identity now was different from before. He was the uncle of the county magistrate's family, and he was no longer the Xiao Ning who was often bullied by that damn fat man.
Thinking of this, he frowned again and asked: "What's going on between you and the county magistrate? You became his uncle, what will Xiaoru do?"
"Third Uncle..." Su Ru hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Brother Xiao Ning has been running all the way just now. Please let him go inside to rest first..."
The woman hurriedly took him into the house and said, "Yes, yes, Xiaoning, go inside first and have a drink of water..."
The man was about to enter the house when he was stopped by Su Ru.
"Third uncle..." Su Ru looked at him and said, "Don't mention this matter again in front of Brother Xiao Ning..."
"Why?" Su Shan looked at her and asked doubtfully, "Why didn't you mention it? He said he would marry you after he passes the exam. What does this mean now?"
"Sister Zhong is beautiful, a talented woman, and has a good background. She is the perfect match for Brother Xiao Ning..." Su Ru said with a smile on her face: "Actually, I have always regarded him as my elder brother... "
Su Shan frowned and said, "I watched you grow up, do you think you can deceive me?"
Su Ru shook her head and said: "Anyway, Third Uncle, don't force him anymore, as long as Brother Xiao Ning is fine..."
She seemed to have remembered something, and murmured again: "That piece of cloth is almost finished, and I will sell it tomorrow. He is in Zhoucheng, and needs money in many places, and Xiao Ning doesn't want to accept other people's favors in vain. …”
…
Tangning sat in the room, slightly absent-minded.
This room was very rundown, and the few pieces of furniture it had were old and out of shape.
Although dilapidated, it is extremely familiar.
It's not like he didn't hear what Third Uncle and Xiao Ru said just now.
Although Su Ru and the former Tang Ning probably didn't have a marriage contract, they were obviously childhood sweethearts who were engaged in a lifelong private relationship.
He is also Tang Ning, but not that Tang Ning, but others think he is that Tang Ning, and he cannot prove to others that he is not that Tang Ning.
It sounds convoluted and silly, but it's the truth.
Su Ru walked in from outside the door and said, "Brother Xiao Ning, let me take you to see your old room."
Tangning nodded.
Su Ru lived next door to her third uncle's house, and as her family's child adopter, of course Tangning also lived there.
This room was a little more rundown than what Tangning had seen just now, but it was neater.
After entering the house, Su Ru pointed to a room at the door and said, "This is my room..."
She pointed to the innermost room and said, "This is the room where Brother Xiao Ning used to live."
Tangning opened the door curtain and went in. His room was even tidier. Facing the door was a bookcase with many books neatly placed on it.
The familiar feeling in Tangning's heart became even stronger.
He walked around the room, touched the bookcase, took down a few books from the bookcase, and leafed through them casually.
It was obviously his first time coming to this place, but it seemed like he had experienced all this countless times.
Seeing the look of memories on his face, Su Ru looked expectant.
"Xiao Ru." Tangning suddenly looked back at her and asked, "What if I can't remember what happened before?"
"Even if Brother Xiao Ning has forgotten everything." Su Ru looked at him and said without any hesitation: "Brother Xiao Ning is also my Brother Xiao Ning."
Tangning smiled and said, "If you can't remember, can you tell me what happened in the past one by one?"
Su Ru nodded, her face regained a trace of rosiness, and said, "Of course..."
…
Tang Ning stayed in Sujiacun for more than an hour, and it was almost time.
He looked at Su Ru and said, "Recuperate at home and I'll come see you tomorrow."
The third uncle looked at him expectantly and asked: "You really can't remember me, you even forgot my name..."
Tang Ning had really lost her previous memory of this body, otherwise, she wouldn't have been unable to recognize even Xiao Ru.
As for the third uncle’s name…
Who would have thought that a grown man, tall and thick-set, would have such a feminine and cosmopolitan name as Susan?
When Tang Ning and Peng Chen walked out, a fat middle-aged man came up to him, stuffed a small bag into Tang Ning's arms, and whispered: "Mr. Tang, Chong'er doesn't know Magistrate Zhong, and he didn't mean to offend. , Your Excellency, you don’t remember the villain’s faults, so for the sake of our friendship over so many years, just let him go..."
Needless to say, this person should be that member Zheng.
The third uncle had just told him that this boy named Zheng had been plotting against Xiao Ru over the years and bullying him a lot - after so many years of friendship, he couldn't let him go.
What's more, the little money he gave himself was not as good as the tips Tang Yaoyao gave to those doctors...
Tang Ning looked at Member Zheng and said, "Don't worry, considering the friendship we have had for so many years, if he gets beaten up, I will ask them to be gentler..."
He looked at Peng Chen and said, "Take it back."
On the carriage, the fat man cried and said, "Tangning, Tangning, you can't do this. We played in the mud together when we were children, and I even lent you books..."
Tangning looked at him and suddenly asked, "Is it you?"
The fat man wiped his tears: "Me, what am I..."
He burst into tears, slapped himself hard several times, and cried: "I used to bully you all the time, it was my fault, I will never dare to do it again, please spare me, I will let my father I will waive the rent for your family and my third uncle’s family. I beg you, it hurts so much to hit the board. I don’t want to go to the cell..."
The third uncle had actually told him just now that Fatty Zheng had always been interested in Xiao Ru, and he and Tang Ning disliked each other. However, for so many years, they had always had verbal conflicts and never done anything excessive. Even over the land rent, It has never been difficult for them.
The people who attacked him that day probably had nothing to do with him.
He waved his hand and said: "Okay, you can go down. I'll let you go this time. If you bully Xiaoru again next time, let's settle the score together with this time..."
The fat man's face showed joy, he beat his chest loudly, and said with assurance: "Don't worry, whoever bullies Xiaoru in the future, I will ask my father to increase the rent of his house, and let my dog go to his door pee……"
Tang Ning also dispelled her last doubts about the fat man. She waved her hand and said, "Go down."
Peng Chen took off the iron chain around his neck and stopped the carriage. The fat man jumped out of the carriage nimbly and disappeared in a flash.
Tangning leaned against the carriage with a look of helplessness on her face.
He inherited Tangning's body and the debt he owed...
He is no longer alone, and he can no longer just sit around and wait to die with such peace of mind...
