Chapter Twenty-Eight: Miss Cao and Ximen Bei

………………

"Miss Cao, it's not that we don't help you, come to force you, you are a widow who lives alone, it's pitiful, the old man and others are not ruthless people, but the elders in the family persecuted too much, asking for money, otherwise I wouldn't have come to collect debts."

"Yes, Mrs. Cao, we don't want to be like this, your building already owed me a hundred taels of silver three months ago, and said that it was repaid three days ago, but today, I haven't seen a tael of silver, three days ago I saw that you were pitiful, I didn't want to force people too much, now it's been three days, you haven't raised the money, how can I go back and explain?"

It was a little second who spoke, with an embarrassed face, pitifully staring at the young woman in front of her, with an outstanding demeanor, a plump figure, and a Luo Qun showing her beautiful demeanor, but she couldn't resist these people's pressing step by step, haggard face, pitiful eyes, lips clenching, I don't know what to say?

There was a maid in green standing beside her, staring at everyone with sharp eyes, with a vigilant look, if anyone dared to take a step forward, she would be able to fight with him, and the people around her stood in place, persecuting the young woman with words.

The young woman, twenty-seven or eighteen years old, her face was full of exhaustion, and her spirits were far away from her, looking at the people below who were pressing step by step, with that ugly face, false smile, and obscene and sharp language, as if she would not stop until she was forced to death.

"Miss Cao, you also know that your business in this Fumanlou has plummeted, since half a year ago, the business is not as good as before, day by day, why continue to open? Close the door as soon as possible, you can still have some money to live, and go on, I'm afraid that you won't be enough to pay back the money if you accompany you? The man's eyes showed a slight smile, and his eyes scanned the young woman's body, from top to bottom.

"Old thief, take another look, this girl will let you know why the flowers are so red?" The maid Qing'er grabbed a wooden stick beside her that was much higher than her, stared at the old lewd thief who was talking angrily, and shouted angrily.

"You ......." was scolded as an old thief, and was still treated like this, who is the one who owes money?

"It's insulting, but it's hard to raise women and villains." The old thief said such a sentence indignantly, and there was no follow-up.

The maid Qing'er shouted angrily, and the other people who were about to move stopped one after another, not daring to step forward, and some unwilling people were stared at by Qing'er's angry gaze, and they all froze, took a look, and waved their hands away.

"I'll give you Miss Cao a face today, and we'll go." After one person left, the people behind him left one after another, knowing that they couldn't get the money today, so why waste time.

Everyone stopped staying, the front of the attic suddenly cooled down, the door was full of birds, and there were two figures left, the poor and pitiful Miss Cao, the domineering side leak like the general on the battlefield Qing'er, after seeing that everyone was gone, he put down the long stick in his hand angrily.

"Miss, it doesn't matter to you, right? Those white-eyed wolves know how to bully Miss, when the master is there, who dares to do this, as soon as the master dies, they all follow the lady to do it, not only these people, but also those clansmen who flattered in front of the young lady before, when they saw that the master had an accident, they ran faster than anyone else. ”

Qing'er said with a look of disgust: "Not only that, but also let people come to make trouble, and don't even give Miss the last way to live, is this to force us to leave Chang'an?" Or are they not people? ”

The young woman Miss Cao frowned, Chu Chu was pitiful, anyone who saw it couldn't help but hug her, take pity on her, she gently patted Qing'er's little head: "You, just disobedient, you said don't be so rude, our women's family should be quiet, virtuous and virtuous, this kind of fighting, or do less?" ”

Qing'er grinned, put down the long stick in her hand in embarrassment, and nodded seriously: "Got it, miss, you are so kind, don't keep bullying, be a slave instead, who dares to bully me, see if I don't beat those bastards to death with a stick." ”

The young woman couldn't cry or laugh, her temperament was so irritable, she couldn't change it, and said angrily: "Anyway, you won't be so impulsive in the future, if you accidentally hit someone, it's not good, you know?" ”

"Got it, miss." Qing'er didn't care, her left ear went in and her right ear went out, and she lowered her head and muttered: "Who let them bully the young lady, come once, the slave maid makes them look good." ”

"You, you?" The young woman didn't know what to say, her heart was full of emotion, her eyes looked ahead, and then she looked at the Chun Manlou behind her, full of worry.

……………………

"Hey, what's your name?"

"Are you calling me?" Li Zhou carefully fiddled with those soaps, this is a good thing, it is worth a lot, and he can't let anything happen to it, and it depends on him whether he eats cabbage or not in the future.

The money that was earned with great difficulty before, although it came from some wrong ways, was also me, which was ruthlessly confiscated by Keer, and I didn't leave a penny to him, which is called subsidizing the family.

Li Zhou suddenly had nothing to say, all the dissatisfaction, all the impatience, in front of Ke'er's sharp pig-killing knife, disappeared without a trace, if you don't want to die, just ask.

Don't you dare to live enough, Li Zhou didn't live enough.

"Nonsense." The scar man was extremely dissatisfied, his voice became cold, staring at Li Zhou to be funny there, I don't know what he was doing, from the observation of nearly two days, he could guess from Li Zhou's behavior, and some other things, this person must be either rich or expensive.

And from the fact that those generals and court officials came to visit, and they didn't dare to do anything else, they could deduce some things that were hard to believe, although he had a guess in his heart, and in order to be more sure, he had to ask.

Although Li Zhou is his savior, as a killer, he must first understand where he is and who he is, so as to avoid any accidents, which is the most basic condition for a killer to ensure the safety of his life.

"My surname is Zhou, and my single name is a Li character." Li Zhoutou won't either, it's a lie when he opens his mouth, Zhou Li? Beat you? Please, if you choose a name, you should also be a little literary, how can you say that you are also a scholar.

"Zhou Li? Zhou Li? What a strange name? The scar man thought about it in his heart for a while, and the more he read it, the more he felt that this name was very strange, why did it look so like a beating?

"What about you? What is your name? It's not called a scar man, right? Intentionally or unintentionally, Li Zhou also asked such a question, people with ominous identities are very dangerous to put around, no matter how good Li Zhou is, he can't joke with his life.

"Me?" The scar man stared at Li Zhou, his muscles were tense, he stared at Li Zhou nervously, his hand moved to the side, and he held it on a chair beside him, with a trace of murder flashing in his eyes.

"yes, how rude it would be to say that I am also your savior, and I don't even know your name, right? You say yes, right? Li Zhou smiled and turned his head, his expression was calm, as if he didn't have any fear, but he was scared in his heart, and his palm couldn't help but grasp the dagger beside him, subconsciously defensive.

The two of them were so cautious, maybe Li Zhou's words played a role, or maybe the scar man changed his mentality, slowly relaxed, and his eyes became casual: "My name is Ximen Bei." ”

"Ximen North? The surname Simon? ”

"Yes."

"It's rare, but it's a good name." Li Zhou guessed in his heart where this person came from? After thinking about it carefully, he found that there was no information about this person in his impression, and people with the surname Ximen were rare, and there were only two people he knew, Ximen Blowing Snow and Ximen Qing, and the rest were unknown.

"Yes."

replied lightly, obviously didn't want to say anything, Li Zhou didn't ask anything anymore, his three-legged cat kung fu has no effect on this person, although Li Zhou now exercises his body every day, but it can only be to strengthen his body, if he wants to reach his level, it is estimated that it is impossible.

Without Ke'er by his side, Li Zhou always felt that he was not so safe, no, as soon as Cao Cao Cao arrived, Ke'er took a gift box, walked in happily, and hummed a little song, and was in a very good mood, because Li Zhou was going to take her out shopping again.

"...... Temple?"

"Huh?" Li Zhou turned his head and glared at Ke'er, who quickly changed his words: "Young master, what you want has arrived." ”

"Yes, put it down." Ke'er put down the box, Li Zhou carefully packed the soap, closed the box, put it in Ke'er's palm, and said very seriously: "Ke'er, you have to watch it, don't let it make a mistake." ”

"Don't worry, young master, I will definitely take a good look at it, and there will be no mistakes." Kerr straightened up and firmly believed.

"Alright, let's go."

"Yes."

"Let's go." Ke'er carried the box and walked out happily, but before he took two steps, a voice came from behind him: "Are you going out?" ”

The person who spoke was Ximen Bei behind him, with a glimmer of light in his eyes, and his face was expressionless, Ke'er stopped his body and glared back at her: "Yes, what's wrong?" ”

Ke'er is a little annoyed, let's go shopping, what's the matter with you, stay at home, don't interfere with me and His Highness's world.

"Can I go along?" Ximen Bei ignored Ke'er's anger and said lightly.

"Yes."

"No, you can't."

In unison, Li Zhou doesn't care, just come if you want to go, Ke'er doesn't want a light bulb to hinder her, or such a fierce person, Ximenbei replied softly: "Okay, wait for me." ”

Then, Ximen Bei turned around, gently pulled his hand on his face, a piece of human skin was removed from his face, quickly retracted into his arms, then straightened his hair, turned around, and came to Li Zhou's side: "It's okay, let's go." ”

"Huh?"

Beauty, big beauty, smooth face, white teeth, phoenix eyes and snake waist, graceful, standing there, like a plum blossom standing proudly in the snow, independent finger branches, leading the way, nothing can compete with her, beautiful and abnormal.

"Let's go."

"Oooh?"

"Young Master!!" Ke'er was extremely reluctant, pouting and unwilling to be disturbed.

"Hmph, damn enchantress."

Helpless, he could only sprinkle his anger on Ximenbei, Ximenbei directly ignored her, followed Li Zhou's side, and didn't say a word.
