Chapter 142: The Pit
"Sister-in-law, it's a little brother who is abrupt today, you have a lot of adults, please forgive me. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Xiao Gang gently lifted the wide sleeves of his robe, revealing a pair of white Shengxue's hands, pinching the teacup with two fingers, and gently holding it with one hand, and sending the freshly brewed tea to Gu Jialuo with great elegance.
His posture is leisurely, and his movements are like flowing water, which is very pleasing to the eye.
Coupled with his sincere eyes and world-class appearance, no one can refuse.
When Gu Jialuo sat in the private room of the restaurant, he had already sobered up, and he was very annoyed when he found out about his situation.
She couldn't figure out why she followed Xiao Gang to the restaurant in a daze, but instinctively, she suspected Xiao Gang.
Yes, she looked at him with an unkind gaze.
But seeing Xiao Gang holding the teacup with both hands, with a persistent look of 'if you don't take me, I won't stop', she had to suppress the anger in her chest and reach out to take the teacup. didn't care about the etiquette of eating tea, and drank the tea in the small tea cup in one gulp.
Bang dang!
Gu Jialuo put the teacup on the table heavily, "Tea, I drank it, and I also received your wishes, can I leave now?" β
She said this very politely, so she almost raised her legs and left.
Xiao Gang was not annoyed, he still smiled indifferently, but his seductive peach blossom eyes were as clear as water, like the most innocent child in the world.
He put his hands in front of him in a regular manner, his upper body was straight, met Gu Jialuo's dissatisfied eyes, and said seriously: "Sister-in-law, I have always wanted to sit down with you and have a good talkββ"
Gu Jialuo interrupted unceremoniously, "What are you talking about?" If I'm not mistaken, Xiao Gongzi and I, we are similar, huh, and, no, familiar! β
The tone borders on harshness.
Xiao Gang still didn't care, and said with a warm smile: "Sister-in-law, I know that you have complaints about me. I also know that you must be scolding me in your heart at this moment. But what I want to say is that these are all misunderstandings, and I can explain them. β
Gu Jialuo pursed his lips and said in a strange way: "Misunderstanding? Ha, what a joke, how did I misunderstand you? Or did you do something misleading? β
This is already cynicism.
Xiao Gang slowly suppressed his smile, he was not annoyed, but showed an aggrieved look, "I knew that my sister-in-law was still misunderstanding me." Actually, Brother Qi and I just have similar interests, Brother Qi happens to have some trouble with his errands these days, and he can't bear to worry about your sister-in-law, so he occasionally asks me to drink and chat with me to relieve the depression in my heart. β
Gu Jialuo was skeptical, but he had already listened to Xiao Gang's words.
But there are still no good words on the lips: "It sounds good, how do I know if what you say is true or false?" Wait, you said that the uncle's errand didn't go well, why didn't he go well? β
In the final analysis, Gu Jialuo is still more worried about his husband.
Xiao Gang took Gu Jialuo's reaction into his eyes, and was secretly proud in his heart: sure enough, he knew that it was most appropriate to use Qi Jinzhi as the starting point.
On his face, he made a serious look, and he solemnly raised his hand and swore that he would "never tell half a lie, and if it is false, the sky will thunder."
Then he said: "Sister-in-law, you also know that the eldest brother was born in the Jiangmen and worked as a parent official in the southwest, whether he is in the army or in politics, he is doing practical things. But now, the eldest brother is in Dali Temple, alas, but he has nothing to do all day long, either listening to some boring gossip from colleagues who are not motivated, or burying his head in a pair of useless dossiers as a scribe. β
The mockery on Gu Jialuo's face gradually faded, replaced by a touch of deep thought.
Seeing this, Xiao Gang knew that Gu Jialuo was really interested, and continued: "One day or two is enough, and forbearance will pass." But after a long time, how can a person with big ambitions like Big Brother stand it? β
Gu Jialuo nodded silently, that's right, Qi Jinzhi was really unhappy in Dali Temple.
Xiao Gang's heart blossomed, and he still had a good brother's tone of 'worried elder brother': "The eldest brother is depressed, but he doesn't want the elders and sister-in-law in the family to worry, just when he was full of complaints and had nowhere to vent, he happened to meet the younger brother." β
Xiao Gang said with a little embarrassment: "I'm not afraid of your jokes, sister-in-law, my younger brother has no other strengths except for a pair of skins, and the only thing he is good at is that he likes to make friends with people and like to chat with peopleββ"
"Flutter~~"
Gu Jialuo couldn't help but chuckle out loud when he saw that he had a beautiful face, but he deliberately said something defiling himself.
This smile, not tight, finally diluted the embarrassing atmosphere in the room a lot.
Xiao Gang deliberately let out a long sigh of relief, made a look of great joy, and muttered in a low voice, "Sister-in-law finally doesn't annoy me!" That's great! β
Gu Jialuo rolled his eyes, although there was no smile, he was not really angry again.
Xiao Gang saw it clearly, so he continued: "My eldest brother and I are really in love, and we only see each other in person, and we introduce each other as confidants. The younger brother also said that the younger brother has no other hobbies in his life, and he likes to make friends with people the most, and over the years, he has also met a lot of like-minded partners. The younger brother saw that the eldest brother was really depressed, so he asked him to go to the mountain villa where we often went to relax. β
"Lodge? Is that the Happy Villa? β
Gu Jialuo's face sank again, "How did I hear that that place is a gold cave, and the most luxurious and bizarre entertainment in the world can be seen in Happy Villa?" β
It's obviously a big mud pit that consumes people's will, and no matter how nice it is, it can't hide its essence!
Xiao Gang said with a rare seriousness: "Sister-in-law misunderstood again." Happy Hill Villa is indeed luxurious, but it is not a place where people are ugly. Our 'military' wants to resettle so many retired and wounded soldiers, if we don't have a little money to support it, how can we continue to do it. The little brother can pat his chest and ensure that every penny earned by Happy Villa is clean! β
Gu Jialuo keenly grasped the point, "Wait, you just said 'military'?" What military? β
Xiao Gang was shocked to realize that he had said the wrong thing, his face was full of chagrin, and he said vaguely: "No, nothing-"
Gu Jialuo didn't give up, and asked: "Say, what is the 'military'?" Is my uncle involved with it? β
Xiao Gang was very hesitant, and finally lost in Gu Jialuo's insistent gaze, sighed, and said slowly: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that some middle and low-level generals unite with each other to take care of the disabled compatriots under their command, and after a long time, they get together and form the so-called 'military'." Brother Qi has not joined us yet, but he very much agrees with our measures, and said that when the 'military' needs his help, he will do his best to help! β
Gu Jialuo didn't hear the point of 'Qi Jinzhi wants to help', she was still more interested in the 'military' itself, "Middle- and low-level generals? What are they? How come I've never heard of it? Also, if you place so many retired soldiers, aren't you afraid of attracting the dissatisfaction of the imperial court? β
Wounded soldiers are also soldiers.
Moreover, the scope of wounded soldiers is too broad, once they were slashed on the battlefield but did not hurt the vital point, that is also a wounded soldier. But in a few months, such wounded soldiers will be alive again.
Daqi is not allowed to raise private armed forces, but the 'military' has gathered a large number of people in the name of pension and resettlement of disabled comrades, and if these people are really disabled people who can't take care of themselves, it is just that, if not, hehe, then we must suspect the 'military's intentions.
Xiao Gang was stunned, he didn't expect Gu Jialuo to be so sensitive, and he immediately grasped the key issue.
You must know that when he coaxed Qi Jinzhi, he used the same rhetoric, but Qi Jinzhi did not find the loophole of 'wounded soldiers'!
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Gang was relieved again, to be able to enter the eyes of Master Miaozhen, Gu Jialuo must have his excellence.
Gu Jialuo's sensitivity should be one of her many advantages.
I have to say that Gu Jialuo's performance made Xiao Gang believe in her more and more.
Because Gu Jialuo wanted to cheat and deliberately act or something, she would definitely actively cooperate in order to obtain more information.
But now, after Xiao Gang figured it out, he breathed a sigh of relief: Gu Jialuo in front of him was real, and she didn't deceive herself!
"Sister-in-law, rest assured, the 'military' never dares to disobey the laws of Daqi, and the retired comrades we have placed are also disabled who have lost their combat effectiveness, and the court will not ask if they know about it." On the surface, at least, the military was clean and able to withstand the court's scrutiny.
Xiao Gang said it confidently, and his eyes were extremely firm.
Gu Jialuo looked at him fixedly for a while, and then nodded reassuringly, "This is the best!" By the way, can you tell me about the 'military' again, and that Happy Villa, there are really so many new things? β
Xiao Gang smiled and bowed, "Since my sister-in-law is interested, I will talk to my sister-in-law." If you want to call us 'military'......"
Everything was as he expected in advance, as long as there was a common topic, even strange men and women who had never met a few times could sit together and talk freely.
Not to mention, the person to whom we are talking is still so handsome and funny!
Xiao Gang thought that he had successfully attracted Gu Jialuo's attention, dispelled her vigilance and dissatisfaction with herself little by little, and successfully upgraded the relationship between the two from a 'strange rival in love' to a 'friend who could sit down and chat'.
Xiao Gang believes that it will not be long before he can develop a 'friend' relationship into a 'lover'. In the end, take down Gu Jia Luo completely!
Gu Jialuo didn't seem to know Xiao Gang's thoughts, his eyes flashed with curiosity, and he listened to Xiao Gang's talk quietly.
In the following days, Gu Jialuo went out more and more often, and every time he went out, he could 'meet' Xiao Gang by chance.
Regardless of whether Gu Jialuo was happy or not at the beginning, but every time, she would be persuaded by Xiao Gang to go to teahouses, restaurants and other places with him to chat.
The conversation was very informative.
Xiao Gang knew that Gu Jialuo was not an ordinary woman, so every time he talked, he would try his best to find a topic.
It can't be trivial market gossip, nor can it be vulgar rumors...... In order to attract Gu Jialuo's attention, Xiao Gang will also deliberately reveal one or two sentences about major events in the DPRK and China, or secrets of the military.
Xiao Gang firmly believes that the fastest way to bring two people closer is to have a common secret with each other!
At first, Xiao Gang would start with Qi Jinzhi, but after many times, he deliberately set aside Qi Jinzhi, and from time to time he would reveal the meaning of 'only you know about this, even the eldest brother I didn't tell, and the sister-in-law wants to keep it secret for me'.
Gu Jialuo went from rejection to habit, and then to enjoyment, and in just half a month, her attitude towards Xiao Gang has changed dramatically.
Sometimes, Gu Jialuo would even take the initiative to ask Xiao Gang!
For example, when you buy something, please pay for it!
For example, in her spare time, she asked Xiao Gang to take her to Happy Villa to see a thing or two, of course, all the money spent on 'seeing' was also borne by Xiao Gang.
ββ¦β¦ I can't bear the wolf with my child, I, I have the right to invest in advance,"
Every time Xiao Gang digs out his pocket, he will repeatedly chant in his heart, as if only in this way can he ignore the pain of cutting flesh!
Straight mother, Gu's slut, is such a loser, in just ten days, it cost Xiao Gang 20,000 or 30,000 taels of silver.
If Xiao Gang's words were heard by Qi Jinzhi, Qi Jinzhi would definitely raise his index finger and shake it in front of him, "This is bad, my family Ah Luo He has been a 'loser'." She didn't spend a penny on the family at all, so good?! β
Qi Jinzhi really couldn't hear Xiao Gang's heart, and he didn't have time to listen.
Gu Jialuo was busy outside, so Qi Jinzhi tossed at home.
"Father, Lao Xu's side is going very smoothly, the Xiao family has spent a lot of money to buy a lot of waste products according to his requirements, and to put it mildly, it is an ordinary black powder bag, and they can't make it!"
Qi Jinzhi added a cup of tea to his father, and said mockingly: "Xiao Daozong is naΓ―ve, and he still has a sweet dream this time." β
The father and son of the Xiao family had a good calculation, using a secret method to trick Qi Jinzhi into blowing up the princess's mansion, and deliberately creating an incident to attract the attention of Jinyiwei, so as to leave time for them to 'move' and prepare.
However, they chose the wrong person.
How tenacious is Qi Jin's mind? After experiencing Qi Qinzhi's soul-snatching incident, Qi Jinzhi's spiritual power became even stronger.
Xiao Gang's idea of hypnotic Taoism is okay to fool others, but it is much worse to deal with Qi Jinzhi.
Qi Jinzhi made a plan and deliberately made a bewitched appearance, but turned his head and made a big deal about it, almost poking a hole in the sky. and also ordered people to leave quite pointing clues.
Qi Jinzhi believes that with Zhao Geng's ability, he will definitely be able to follow the vine, and finally find out the Xiao father and son and the so-called 'military'.
But before that, Qi Jinzhi still wanted to pit the Xiao family.
Xiao Gang has done so many disgusting things, Qi Jinzhi doesn't return a salute, he really can't swallow that breath!
"Lao Xu is old and sophisticated, this little thing is not difficult for him. However, caution must be exercised in this matter. Once the incident happened, the safety of Lao Xu and several apprentices must be ensured. β
Qi Lingxian commanded in a deep voice. Lao Xu is his personal soldier, and he has experienced many winds and waves with him, and he doesn't want Lao Xu to capsize in the gutter!
"Father, son saved!"
Qi Jinzhi responded, and the light in his eyes flickered.
On this day, Qi Jinzhi handed a fold to the palace, stating: The Qi family was shocked to hear about the Gongzhufeng incident, and was shocked, and while denouncing the gangsters for being mad and daring, they couldn't help but worry that firearms were too dangerous, and once they were obtained by the gangsters, they would definitely endanger the court and the people.
He also said that for the sake of social stability and the stability of the imperial court, the Qi family decided to dedicate all the secret recipes of Qi's firearms to the saints and destroy all the finished firearms in the warehouse.
In the end, Qi Jinzhi said sternly: "Gunpowder is a sharp weapon of the country, and it must be controlled by the imperial court to achieve peace!" (To be continued.) )
