Bachelor

Chapter 285 Falls into My Hands
Ting Lan glanced at her younger brother, stretched her back and tugged him: "Let's go, your brother-in-law is still waiting for us in the city!" Although she is only Sun Dan's concubine now, in the Ming Dynasty, a concubine had no status.

But Zhiniang, the eldest lady in the mansion, has a bodhisattva heart, she can't shake the servants in the mansion, and she has a calm temper.Therefore, all affairs in the mansion are in the hands of Ting Lan.Ting Lan regards herself as a half-grandmother of her master.

She thinks that she has a noble status, and when she heard that people from the Guo family came to kill her, she didn't want to get entangled with those rude servants, so she wanted to leave this place of right and wrong.

But when I pulled it, I found that my brother's feet seemed to have taken root.

Ting Lan was clear-eyed, and quietly asked Tang Chen: "What's wrong with you?"

Tang Chen looked at Miss Su embarrassedly, but did not speak, but his face turned red.

Ting Lan shook her head in her heart: Forget it, my old Tang family is only such a single seedling. Since he has taken a fancy to that Sister Su, he may not be able to take the Song family's affairs down today.

Ting Lan naturally knew how powerful Sun Dan was, and she was not afraid of the so-called Guo family.From her point of view, although the so-called Fangshan Guo family is a relative of Guo Xun, there is no one among the dignitaries in the court who does not have three or four relatives.Sun Dan is a man with all-hands and eyes. As for the Guo family in Fangshan, they are just ordinary local rich people. Could they still be stronger than Sun Dan, the county magistrate?

Now that she decided to take the lead for the Song family, Ting Lan stopped, turned her eyes to Sister Su, and snorted: "Of course the relatives of my dignified Sun family don't want to be bullied like this. Sister Su, since you want to enter My family has to be a little dignified of the Sun family. Whenever something happens, you will die or live, what does it look like."

Although Ting Lan's voice was not loud, it was full of majesty.Sister Su was stunned, and the scissors in her hand fell to the ground.

Seeing her standing there blankly, Ting Lan felt even more displeased: "What are you doing in a daze, what sharp eyesight, bring a chair over here."

Sister Su was completely shocked by Ting Lan, and hurriedly brought a chair over.

Ting Lan took the chair, sat straight at the gate, and sneered, "I'd like to see who is here and how courageous they are. Mrs. Jin, go make a cup of tea."

Ting Lan's anti-guest behavior made everyone in the room stunned. At this moment, the woman who had reported the letter came back again: "Sister Su, I went to check again just now, and they seemed to be officials. There are ten people in total. Someone. The leader seems to be a high official."

Ting Lan smiled and turned her head to look at her younger brother Tang Chen: "Could it be that your brother-in-law is here? I thought he should also come to pick up our siblings." However, she was still a little strange, as it was ten miles away from the city. , how did Sun Dan come so fast?
Sister Su's mother, who had been lying on the bed, sat up suddenly, trembling and weeping with joy: "Qingsong must have returned, it must be Qingsong has returned..." The Qingsong she was talking about was Sister Su's eldest brother, Song Qingsong, who is currently in the county. To be an ordinary prisoner belongs to the first-class silk service, and among the four people of the Ming Dynasty, it is even lower than ordinary farmers.However, no matter what, he still wears an official uniform, and in the eyes of ordinary people, he can be regarded as a figure.

Sister Su's mother couldn't stop chanting Buddha: "My family's green pine is promising, and I even invited the county magistrate here. Hey, it's just a big thing, but it alarmed the magistrate. It's a sin."

Ting Lan was disdainful in her heart: "Obviously Sun Dan came to pick up my siblings, but this woman would think about it."

At this moment, the gate of the courtyard was kicked open with a sound of "touch!", and a dozen people rushed in.There are yamen servants and plainclothes men.

The leader was a middle-aged man wearing an official uniform of the eighth rank, but it was not Sun Dan.

A burly man in plain clothes pointed at the room and shouted: "Leader Liang, this is the Song family, this troublemaker, Mr. Liang, you must be the master of our Guo family..."

While talking, he suddenly noticed that Ting Lan was sitting at the door with a look of contempt on her face.Doubts in my heart: who is this woman?

The team leader surnamed Liang coughed, and looked at Ting Lan pretendingly: "Who are you, tell Sister Song Su and her mother to come out and answer."

Ting Lan asked back, "Who are you?"

Matchmaker Jin hurriedly whispered in Ting Lan's ear, "Ma'am, this is Liang Min, the team leader in Fangshan County." Because of her professional relationship, she wandered around ten miles and eight towns all day long. But she knew seven or eight of them.However, listening to her voice, it seems that she is very afraid of this leader Liang, and this Liang Min is also a powerful person.

The so-called team leader is the leader of all the government servants in the county government. Generally speaking, officials in upper counties such as Fangshan are relatively well equipped.The county magistrate and the county magistrate are permanent and receive state salaries, so they can be regarded as serious civil servants.Below is Master Liufang, then the team leader and handymen.Masters, squad leaders, and government servants do not occupy the state establishment, and all expenses are borne by the county magistrate.

Because the master is an aide, he does not directly deal with the affairs of the county government, but is only a staff member of the county magistrate.The specific tasks are the following teams.

After Sun Dan came to Fangshan, he also fired many inactive government servants and replaced many of his own people.But he is not very familiar with Fangshan's situation, and his actions are not too big.Moreover, a team leader is equivalent to a bureau chief in modern times. If too many middle-level cadres are dismissed at once, the county's affairs will also be paralyzed.

This team leader surnamed Liang is usually inconspicuous, and he can be regarded as the top six or seven leaders in Fangshan.

"Oh, it's Team Leader Liang!" Ting Lan picked up the tone and deliberately prolonged her voice.

Mrs. Jin was sensible and introduced Ting Lan with a smile: "Leader Liang, this is..."

Hearing what Mrs. Jin said, everyone paid attention to Ting Lan.At first, when they saw Ting Lan blocking the door in a big way, they were surprised, but because she was not only right, she didn't care.At this time, after listening to Mrs. Jin talking about it, I looked at it at the same time.

Everyone saw that Ting Lan was extremely tall before, and they were also wondering: "How can there be such a tall woman?" Now, after looking at it, they realized that although this woman was dressed in simple clothes, she was a beauty.

In an instant, more than a dozen greedy eyes fixed on Ting Lan.

Leader Liang looked at Ting Lan sullenly, and then interrupted Mrs. Jin harshly: "I don't care who she is. The Song family sold the land to the Guo family, and became attached to his house as a tenant farmer, but now they want to go out and work alone. My Ming Dynasty also had strict control over such fugitive slaves. The Song family immediately handed over the land deed to the Guo family. In this way, the official team leader may let you go, otherwise, I will arrest your mother and daughter and go back to eat A few days in prison."

Probably out of lust and insanity, and wanting to show his authority in front of Ting Lan, Liang Min played the role of official authority.In his opinion, Ting Lan's clothes were really shabby. If she was a real person, she would have been covered in jewels and silk, so how could she be wearing only an ordinary cotton-padded jacket.

However, Liang Min didn't realize that although Ting Lan's clothes were simple, they could be cut to fit perfectly. A master with this kind of tailoring skills is not something ordinary people can afford.

"Such an ordinary woman looks beautiful, but she fell into the hands of grandpa today, but she can't just let it go." Leader Liang was very upset, trying to find a reason to take Ting Lan away.As long as she goes down to the cell, she will naturally live if she wants to live, and die if she wants her to die.
