Brocade clothing as the country

Chapter 3
After simply eating a few mouthfuls of food, Wang Tong put on his filial piety and knelt beside the spirit case. The filial son is here to thank all the guests for their worship. This rule is the same in ancient and modern times.

The welcoming guests at the door called their names loudly, one by one the guests came in to worship, Wang Tong knelt on the straw mat and kowtowed in return, without the money his father left him, without this house, he could still live How long, could it be that he went to the blacksmith's shop, but if the other party seized his family's property, would he let himself wander outside and be a trouble for the future?
The grief of his father's passing was overwhelmed by fear and worry. At this time, a catastrophe was imminent. What Wang Tong thought about was how to avoid it and how to survive.

Jin Yiwei is majestic and domineering, but Wang Li is still a loyal person. He never bullies others on this street. Instead, he often helps everyone as much as he can. Wang Tong does not get into trouble by being mischievous.

The father and son had a good reputation on this street, so when Wang Li died of illness and opened the mourning hall, the neighbors came first, and those who came in to pay respects sighed and comforted them, and they didn't care much when they saw Wang Tong's absent-minded appearance. Yes, although Wang Tong is young and mature, he is a child after all, and he will inevitably be in a trance when encountering such a thing.

Not long after, no neighbors came over, because Wang Li's colleagues in Jinyiwei were coming. Wang Li was a loyal person, but he didn't dare to say anything about others, so it was better to avoid them as soon as possible.

"Master Tian Ronghaotian, Commander of the Jinyi Pro-Army Division, and Master Liu Xinyong, the General Banner, and a group of colleagues came to pay respects!!"

The person who made the funeral roll call is just a rough man in the market place, it's rare to be able to speak such an elegant mandarin, but there is a little trill in his voice, I think he was very frightened.

At this time, the mourning hall was empty, and the two men who were in charge of taking care of the mourning hall and guiding the guests hid, "The common people are pigs and sheep, and the brocade clothes are tigers and wolves." This saying is not for nothing.

With the sound of dense footsteps, a group of people have already entered the mourning hall. Although the house of the Wang family is old, it was bought by a wealthy family back then.

Tian Ronghao, the name Wang Tong had heard from his father, was his father Wang Li's immediate boss, once he entered the door, he didn't bother to look at him, and said in a shy voice:

"Thank you, uncles, for your concern."

Then he kowtowed in return, but Tian Ronghao was a black-faced strong man with not much beard on his face and a lean appearance. When he entered the door from the outside, he, a Shangguan, was offering sacrifices, but the courtyard was empty and no one greeted him, which made him feel a little unhappy. But when he saw the spirit card in front of him, he felt a little emotional. He stepped forward to burn a stick of incense, sighed and said to the people behind him:
"Wang Li is a loyal man, what a pity."

There was a sound of agreement behind him, and when he heard them commenting on his father, Wang Tong burst into tears involuntarily, but Tian Baihu turned his attention to him and said:
"You are Wang Tong, what do you do for a living now?"

Jin Yiwei originally had the function of intelligence and investigation. It is not surprising that Tian Baihu can say this. Wang Tong raised his head and said respectfully:

"In terms of my lord, Wang Tong is 13 years old this year and doesn't have much work."

Wang Tong's response was so decent that Tian Baihu appreciated it very much. He was shocked when he heard the words "13 years old", and couldn't help saying:
"Looks so big, like a grown-up."

But when Wang Tong raised his head, he saw a group of people behind Tian Ronghao, and couldn't help but feel shocked. The two people he met on the road before were suddenly in the queue. It turned out that the "Liu Tou" was the general banner Liu Xinyong. The burly man followed Liu Xinyong.

There were more than a dozen Jinyiwei who came together, some with indifferent faces, and some with a bit of sadness, but these two people did not look like they were worshiping at all, they whispered there and looked around, this look seemed familiar to Wang Tong In modern times, the real estate agency evaluates the value of the house is not the face.

That hundred households came here this time just to show their boss's heart, and he has no interest in staying here any longer, so he turned his head and said to his subordinates:

"You also offer a stick of incense, and those who have money on their bodies will give it to each other..."

A group of people nodded, and stepped forward one by one, Wang Tong hesitated, and kowtowed in return according to the rules, his forehead kept touching the straw mat, but his mind was turned.

Wang Li's wife died early, and his son Wang Tong was precocious. There are some jokes and anecdotes about Jin Yiwei's duties. He often goes home and tells his son a story. Wang Tong often has a few thoughtless ideas that make him laugh. It is also a happy time for father and son.

These uncomfortable stories clearly appeared in Wang Tong's mind at this time, usurping the family property, driving the orphans and widows out of the house, there are also such stories, but what follows is either the orphans and the widows retaliate and report the case, or usurp the family property These people cut grass and roots.

With Jin Yiwei's unscrupulous behavior, if he wants to seize the family property of his deceased colleague, he must be more ruthless in the end, and he will be silenced.

Wang Tong raised his head and glanced at Liu Xinyong and the people around him. They both had greedy expressions on their faces, and they confirmed their thoughts.

His thoughts turned, Tian Ronghao and his group finished worshiping and offering incense, nodded at him, turned around and were about to leave, and when he was about to walk out of the main room, Wang Tong came to his senses and shouted loudly:

"Master Tian, ​​please stay, the late father has something to return to the lord!!"

Baihu Tian Ronghao turned around in astonishment, Wang Tong stood up quickly regardless of his filial piety, and said quickly:

"I was in a daze just now, and I almost forgot about this matter, please wait a moment, my lord."

Tian Ronghao was stunned, he had no friendship with Wang Li, how could there be something to return, Liu Xinyong and his companion behind Tian Baihu looked at each other, both were a little surprised, if Baihu was old, it would be really hard to start a robbery , but never heard of it before, just look at it.

Wang Tong hurried back to the bedroom, opened the secret compartment under his father's bed, pulled out a small wooden box, took out the key from his body, and opened it, revealing the neatly stacked gold bars inside and the firecracker on top.

After taking a look at the short firecracker, Wang Tong deftly threw the firecracker and a few gold bars into the hidden compartment, picked up the box, turned around and ran towards the main room.

In this era, Jin Yiwei is an existence above the law. If you want to protect yourself and live better, becoming a member of Jin Yiwei is the best way.

When Wang Tong quickly ran back to the mourning hall, Tian Ronghao already had an impatient look on his face, thinking that this kid is so indifferent and talking nonsense, if he was not in this mourning hall, he would have turned around and left a long time ago.

Over there, Wang Tong held the box and came to Tian Baihu respectfully, and said in a low voice:
"Master Tian, ​​my father made an confession on his deathbed. I thought I would send it to the mansion in a few days, but it was delayed due to the busy affairs at home..."
