Chapter 448: I have no way to repay Brother Xu’s kindness!

"Who are you looking for, young master?"

Standing at the door, a freckled girl asked, blinking.

The freckled girl looked at the young man in front of her and felt that he looked a little familiar, but she couldn't remember who he was.

But she was sure she must have seen him.

"My name is Xu Ming, nice to meet you young lady." Xu Ming smiled and said, "I wonder if Master Yu is home?"

"Xu Ming. Xu Ming~ I remember you. No wonder you look familiar to me. You are the top scholar Xu who passed the imperial examination with Brother Yu a few years ago." The freckled girl's eyes lit up. "Yes, yes. That guy is still sleeping. Mr. Xu, please go into the yard first."

As she spoke, the freckled girl brought Xu Ming into the yard.

"Sir, please sit anywhere and don't be polite. I'll go and wake up Brother Yu. I worked very late last night editing some collections of essays with him, so we are both resting now. Please forgive me if I'm being slow," said the freckled girl.

"How could that be? It was my fault for coming here without permission and disturbing your rest." Xu Ming shook his head, speaking in a very polite tone.

The freckled girl just smiled, poured Xu Ming a cup of hot tea, and walked into a room in the small courtyard.

Then, Xu Ming heard the girl's voice coming from the room: "Yu Ping'an! Get up! The sun is shining on your butt! Hurry up and get up!"

Yu Ping'an's lazy voice came out: "Why are you in such a hurry? Get some more sleep. It's your day off today."

"Get up quickly! Mr. Xu is here to visit." The freckled girl looked very angry.

"Mr. Xu? Which Mr. Xu?" Yu Ping'an asked puzzledly.

Freckled girl: "Who is the other Mr. Xu? It's Xu Ming, the top scholar."

"Eh? Then we need to get up quickly."

From time to time, Xu Ming saw Yu Ping'an wearing a blue shirt and walking out of the bedroom with his heels lifted.

When Yu Ping'an was about to step over the stairs, he almost fell to the ground.

"Yu Ping'an, I pay my respects to the Commander."

Yu Ping'an stood in front of Xu Ming and bowed.

Xu Ming smiled and bowed in return: "Brother Yu, long time no see."

Yu Ping'an nodded: "It's true that I haven't seen Commander Xu for a few years."

The two met for the first time during the imperial examination, and they got to know each other's names on the stands where the gold list was displayed.

The last time we met was at a banquet.

Xu Ming shook his head: "You and I are from the same class, you can just address me as brother, no need to be so polite."

"Okay, then I'll dare to call you 'Brother Xu'." Yu Ping'an said with a smile.

Xu Ming also smiled: "It should be so."

"Brother Xu, please take a seat. Pingping, go get the best tea leaves from my room."

Yu Ping'an led Xu Ming to sit down in the courtyard, and then instructed the freckled girl Chen Ping to take out the fine tea that was treasured in the house.

Although just now in the room, this freckled girl was indeed very rude to Ping An and even called him by his name directly.

But in front of the guests, the freckled girl still gave Yu Ping'an enough face.

After Chen Ping took out the tea leaves and brewed them, she returned to her room so as not to disturb the conversation between the two people.

When Chen Ping just returned to the bedroom, Yu Pingan stood up and bowed deeply to Xu Ming: "I am Yu Pingan, thank you for avenging my blood feud!"

"Brother Yu, you are too polite. Please get up quickly."

Xu Ming quickly stood up and helped Yu Ping'an up.

Yu Pingan looked at Xu Ming and said gratefully, "Back then, I was in Baihe Town and was ruined by those families. I even had my legs broken. After I passed the imperial examination, I thought I would need to endure for a few more years and let those guys live happily for a while. I would then be able to take revenge when I climbed to a higher position.

What I didn't expect was that it was Brother Xu who helped me get revenge.

I have no way to repay Brother Xu's kindness!"

"Brother Yu, please don't say that."

Xu Ming shook his head.

“Those families in Baihe County have always been evil and deserve to be punished by anyone. The things I did in Baihe County before were, first, to get rid of harm to the people, and second, my third brother was going to take over as the mayor of Baihe County. If those families were not eliminated, I don’t know how my third brother would govern Baihe County at that time.

So I really feel unworthy of Brother Yu’s kindness.”

This matter has to do with the time in Baihe County.

At that time, Xu Pangda took office in Baihe County, where there were several stubborn family forces.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

These families joined hands to control most of the industries in Baihe County, and most of the officials and clerks in the county government were from those families.

No matter which county magistrate takes office, he is basically a lone commander.

Otherwise you will just cooperate with them and become corrupt.

Otherwise you won’t be able to accomplish anything.

To a certain extent, they are the county magistrates of Baihe County.

Yu Ping'an's ancestral home is in Baihe County. Yu Ping'an's family is considered to be moderately wealthy, but his family was destroyed by those families and his leg was even broken.

At that time, Xu Ming's main purpose was to eliminate harm for the people, and also to make Xu Pangda feel more comfortable when he was in power, so he directly wiped out those families.

Thus, he indirectly received Yu Ping'an's favor.

In fact, with Yu Ping'an's ability, in Xu Ming's opinion, those families will be destroyed sooner or later, it's just a matter of time.

“That being said, no matter what, Brother Xu has helped me, and I will definitely remember Brother Xu’s kindness.

Moreover, I don’t know how many years it will take for me to take revenge. During these years, the people of Baihe County are still oppressed by them. I don’t know how many innocent people will die tragically. It was Brother Xu who saved my fellow villagers.

I really have no way to repay such a kindness!"

Yu Ping'an still said this, and it seemed that he was a little stubborn.

But it is this kind of person who values ​​friendship and loyalty that makes Xu Ming feel more at ease.

"This is really nothing. Never mind. Let's not talk about this for now." Xu Ming helped Yu Pingan sit down. "Actually, I came to see Brother Yu today to ask for something."

"Brother Xu, just speak frankly. As long as I can help, I will definitely help." Yu Ping'an said frankly.

Xu Ming shook his head: "Whether or not you want to accept what I said is up to you, Brother Yu. Don't bring in other emotions."

Hearing Xu Ming say this, Yu Pingan was stunned for a moment, as if he understood something, and said directly: "Brother Xu, do you want me to enter the Jinyi Mansion?"

Xu Ming looked at the smart man in front of him and nodded: "Exactly!"
