Chapter Twenty-Eight: An Undersurge

Since Mrs. Bai came back, Yuexi has not eaten a single safe meal, nor has she ever eaten a full meal. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, she was touching her stomach, lying on the table and filling her hunger with tea.

Ling Luo put a plate of chrysanthemum cake on the table, Yuexi's eyes lit up, "Ling Luo, I knew you were the best for me." ”

Ling Luo smiled, "Knowing that you were going to starve tonight, I went to the kitchen to get it." ”

Yuexi was busy sending the chrysanthemum cake to her mouth, when suddenly her movements stopped.

Ling Luo was puzzled, "What's wrong?" ”

Yuexi said, "I smell the smell of roast chicken. ”

Ling Luo sneered, "The girl is hungry and faint, there is roast chicken there on this big night." ”

"Really." Yuexi sniffed vigorously, "It's getting closer." ”

Bai Li pushed the door in and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to have a very smart nose in addition to being able to eat." He shook the oiled paper bag in his hand.

Yuexi winked at Ling Luo proudly, "I'm not wrong." ”

After eating happily and drinking tea with satisfaction, Yuexi felt that she was alive again.

The market is crowded with people and traffic.

Bai Li and Yuexi slowly moved forward with the flow of people.

Yuexi took a bite of the sugar gourd, "Don't you have to be busy with business today?" ”

Bai Li said, "I'm afraid that my mother will blame you?" ”

Yuexi shook her head, "I can understand Madam Bai's feelings, so I don't blame her." ”

Bai Li said, "I said, you don't have to worry about my mother's side." ”

Yuexi suddenly saw a group of people gathered in front of her, she didn't know what she was doing, and ran forward curiously, it turned out that she was fighting cocks.

"What do you want to eat today? I invite you. Yuexi looked at the two roosters fighting in the center of the field, and the corners of her mouth rose.

"Do you still know cockfighting?" Bai Li squeezed next to her.

Yuexi said, "I don't understand." ”

Bai Li said, "I don't know how you can win money?" ”

Yuexi said, "You can win money if you bet right." ”

Bai Li said, "......" He has nothing to say.

The two came to the betting table, and Yuexi stretched out her hand.

Bai Li said, "What to do?" ”

"Silver, if you don't give me silver, what will I bet?"

Bai Li took out a silver ingot from her sleeve and put it in her hand, Yuexi looked at the pile of money for the bet twice, and put the silver on the side of the more.

Can you win this way?

It turns out that this can really win, and Yuexi has won three times in a row.

Bai Li was curious, was it really lucky? If it weren't for luck, she wouldn't even look at the chickens on the field, how would she know that that there would win.

Bai Li attached to Yuexi's ear, "What method did you use?" ”

Yuexi turned around and smiled smugly, "Secret." ”

Bai Li was disdainful.

"This is the survival method that Brother Jian Xin taught me, and this." Yuexi slipped a white pill out of her sleeve.

"What's that?"

"Something that saves lives." Yuexi grinned and leaned into his ear, "Poison." ”

"You just said Brother Jian Xin?"

Yuexi said, "Yes, he is the son of my stepfather, and he treats me very well, like his own brother." ”

If it weren't for Brother Jian Xin, I am afraid I would not be able to live now.

The father-in-law is very good, but he is very strict, he stays in a strange place when he is young, he is punished and is not allowed to eat, he can't sleep, it is Brother Jian Xin who gives him warmth, so, in Yuexi's heart, Brother Jian Xin is his own brother.

Yuexi looked at the restaurant, "I'm hungry, where are we going to eat?" ”

Bai Li didn't care about what to eat, "What do you want to eat?" ”

"Today I invite you, naturally, to go where you want to go."

"Let's go back to Yingxiang Building." Bai Li Road.

"Sure enough, the richer you are, the more stingy you are." Yuexi sighed.

returned to Yingxianglou to ask for food, Bai Li instructed Uncle Wang to pack the dishes and go out with the food box.

"Go home and eat?" Yuexi was a little reluctant.

Bai Li said, "Boating on the lake." ”

In late autumn, the scenery by the lake is bleak.

The lake is rippling, the boat is swaying, and the two of them sit in the cabin, and the aroma of the meal is overflowing, which is a unique taste.

Yuexi said, "Can Big Brother Bai do a?" ”

"Why do you ask this all of a sudden?"

Yuexi pointed to the scenery outside the boat, "This situation and this scene, if it can be accompanied by music, wouldn't it be more beautiful." ”

Bai Li smiled, "I don't know how to." ”

Yuexi was disappointed, walked to the bow of the boat, saw a leaf floating in the water, picked it up, and sat down again, "Look at me." ”

Bai Li said, "Listen up." ”

The staccato is high and low, simply out of tune, and it is more of a cacophony than a small song.

Yuexi laughed, "Does Big Brother Bai think that I will blow out the fairy song?" ”

She remembered that when Brother Jian Xin made her unhappy before, she used this to punish him and let him listen to her own tunes, and when she saw Brother Jian Xin's painful frowning, her mood instantly improved.

"I've always used this as a way to punish Brother Jian Xin."

Bai Li also smiled, he really shouldn't have expected her.

"Give it to me."

Yuexi gave him the leaves, "Can you blow?" Are you sure it's not punishing me? ”

The crisp and cheerful song fluttered, and Yuexi looked disgusted.

"What? Not good? Bai Li thought she was not satisfied.

"If it's used to punish people, I'm still good at blowing."

The sun is in the west, and it's time to go back.

Bai Li said, "My mother has wronged you during this time. ”

Yuexi said, "If you don't wronged me, you just wronged my stomach a little." ”

Bai Li smiled.

"Thankfully, it will pass soon."

After coming out for a while, as Ling Luo said, it was time for him to go back.

There has been no news about the matter of Brother Tuo Leng's investigation of the Pill Yin Sect, and I don't know how it is.

When Brother Leng has news, whether or not he finds out about the Maruyin Sect, he will leave.

"I'm afraid my mother won't leave these days." The mother has not agreed with Yuexi, even if she wants to leave, she will not let her go.

Yuexi was inexplicable, "Madame Bai is the master, I am the guest, of course I am the one who leaves." ”

Bai Li's face immediately changed, "You want to leave?" Where to? ”

"I can't stay at your house forever, can I? Of course you want to go back to my house. ”

The day before yesterday, Jian Xin's brother left a letter, he had already returned to the Stygian Flame Palace, and told him to go back as soon as possible after finishing the matter at hand.

It took too long to come out, and she didn't want Brother Jian Xin to worry.

Brother Leng, if they are fateful, there will always be a day when they meet in the future.

"Can't, stay?"

Yuexi deliberately misinterpreted his meaning, "There is no feast in the world that will not be dispersed. ”

"Can't you stay for me?"

Yuexi looked at the sincerity in his eyes, and was a little timid, "Big Brother Bai......"

"Answer me after thinking about it." Bai Li took the lead and said, "Let's go." ”

A cold moon, a cold star.

Yuexi stood in the courtyard, letting the cold blow.

Big Brother White.

He knows his good self in his heart, it's not that he is not moved, but he is just ......

"What are you thinking?" Ling Luo draped a coat over her.

Yuexi shook her head lightly, "It's nothing. ”

"It's dark at night, let's go back to the house."

Yuexi turned around, "In a few days, let's go back to the Stygian Flame Palace." ”

Ling Luo was shocked, and then rejoiced, finally going back.

"Okay."

A quiet night.

With a scream from the girl, the quiet morning was broken.

A white cat was hung in front of Chu Junxiang's door with its belly broken open and bloody.

Chu Junxiang loves cats, especially this white cat, which is usually taken care of by someone and almost never leaves her eyes.

This morning, when I saw the cat's blood hanging in front of my eyes, I didn't mention it in one breath, and I couldn't get out of bed.

"Be sure to find out this person for me." Chu Junxiang was lying on the bed trembling with anger, "Go, call me all the people in the house." ”

The people were busy.

Hearing the news, Liu Wu rushed over, glanced at the dead cat that had been taken down, and entered the house.

"What happened? What's going on? ”

The girl who followed Chu Junxiang whispered, "Madame's cat is dead, and I found it hanging in front of the door this morning." ”

Liu Fu said, "How did you die?" Hanging at the door, it was not deliberately killed. ”

The subordinates were all found, and Chu Junxiang asked them one by one, but in the end they found nothing.

The cat has been taken care of by Xun'er, and when she saw that the cat was dead, she was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and trembled, "Yesterday was the same as usual, I went back to the room after feeding the cat, and the cat was fine when I left, why did it die today." It's not me, it's really not me. ”

Liu Wu said, "Is it that the cat ran somewhere, or broke someone's things, and was hated." ”

Being reminded by Liu Fu like this, Xun'er suddenly thought, "Yes, yes." ”

"Say."

"The cat ran to Miss Yuexi's yard yesterday."

Chu Junxiang stared at Xun'er, and Xun'er continued, "Miss Yuexi said that she was afraid of cats since she was a child, and she was startled when she saw such a big cat, but I quickly brought the cat back. ”

Chu Junxiang's eyes lit up, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Yuexi, bring her to me." ”

Liu Wu stood aside, a subtle smile on the corner of his mouth.
