Chapter 029: Approaching
Liu Cheng's house is heavily guarded. The people of Zhang's Mansion guarded it on three floors inside and three layers outside. There are those who stand guard, towering and immovable, standing straight, with a knife in their hands, like the honor guard soldiers in the imperial capital square; There are also two people in a team, carrying knives in their hands, carrying bows and arrows, walking side by side, coming and going on patrol; There are even smaller bosses looking around.
These people in Zhang's Mansion look light-footed, stern, and well-equipped, and they are definitely all masters. In this era when soldiers are all good and bad, armed forces with such literacy are definitely not simple rich and noble.
And the Zhang Mansion, which has always been low-key, did not hesitate to use such armed forces this time to surround the Liu family to the point that it was like a fly that wanted to fly in!
It seems that the person inside is Zhang Ci without a doubt.
If you can get in, you will definitely be able to see him?
Chen Qiuniang couldn't help muttering. The patrolman next to him was in a standard upright posture, made a very gentlemanly gesture of please, and said loudly to Chen Qiuniang, who had obtained the permission to enter, "Let's go, little girl, this way." β
"I'll go, it's like I don't know the way. Also, how can it make people feel inexplicably happy. Chen Qiuniang glanced at this person, and she was guilty in her heart. However, she was still sweet on her lips, and said obediently, "Brother Lao", so she limped to Liu Cheng's house with a wooden stick.
"Wait." Chen Qiuniang only took two steps, and the person called the third child suddenly stopped him, and jumped in front of Chen Qiuniang, and crossed with a knife, blocking his way.
"Third child, what are you doing?" The one leading asked.
The third child didn't pay attention to his colleagues, but just said to Chen Qiuniang: "Who knows what kind of spy you are." β
"Your boss promised to let me in." Chen Qiuniang faced the knife in front of her and said timidly.
"Search before you can enter." The third child's tone was indifferent.
When I went, a big man actually said a body search to a little girl, which was a violation of personal dignity and degrading human dignity. Chen Qiuniang was disdainful in her heart, but her face was extremely aggrieved, and she whispered: "Although, I am a child of a poor family. It is also considered ominous by the villagers, but I also have the dignity of my daughter's family. β
"Less nonsense, or, don't go in, go in, you can, search." The third child's tone is still tough, and he doesn't pity the jade at all and loves the children. Even his colleagues couldn't stand his actions, and shouted disapprovingly: "The third child, she is just a child, don't be afraid of the well rope if you are bitten by a snake for three years." β
"Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years. I don't want to be scared againβ" The third said in a fierce tone.
"She just went in to get the medicine, and it was different from last time." The man emphasized.
The third child obviously agreed with his colleagues, but still didn't want to take risks. Therefore, he stood there stubbornly, without saying a word, and put the knife horizontally in front of Chen Qiuniang, without the slightest appearance of backing down.
For a moment, there was a stalemate.
"The third child, my cousin must have made a decision after careful consideration. Can't you trust your cousin? The man next to him persuaded again.
Chen Qiuniang was silent, looking aggrieved, and pursed her lips tightly. Inside, it's a good show. In this era when there is no TV, the Internet, and novels, there are not many entertainment activities, and the days are boring. Some people let themselves watch it as if they were acting in a movie, and the days are really cute.
The third child remained silent. Then he said, "If you are not at ease, go in with her." β
"Big brother, my family background is innocent. I-" Chen Qiuniang was very cooperative and cried aggrieved, feeling that her acting skills could really kill too many big-name stars in seconds.
She was about to continue to show off her acting skills, but unexpectedly, the people in the room couldn't wait, and the man asked aloud: "Xiao Wu, why haven't you brought her in yet?" β
"Hey. The third child did not let it. The man who was persuading the third child in front of him replied loudly.
The man in the room said, "Don't worry about it, take her in quickly." β
The third child didn't respond, but under the urging of Xiao Wu, he reluctantly put the knife into the sheath, and then said to Chen Qiuniang with a fierce face: "If you dare to have any demon moths, I will tear you alive." β
"Hey, the third child, you-" Xiao Wu shook his head, obviously he couldn't stand the third child actually intimidating a little girl like this. The third child ignored it, and as soon as he turned around, he disappeared into the night. The little five shrugged his shoulders, and then turned to Chen Qiuniang and said that the third child was like that, he had saved a little girl on the front line before, but the girl was an enemy assassin and almost killed the young general. Therefore, he is very sensitive to little girls and small children.
"I see, it's no wonder he's the case." Chen Qiuniang nodded thoughtfully and followed behind this little five. In my heart, I thought that this little five was a kind person, but he was really not a good employee, and he was too talkative. With his words and the previous actions of the third child, he didn't have to go in to investigate and knew that the injured person inside was definitely Zhang Ci.
Chen Qiuniang, under the leadership of Xiao Wu, entered the Liu family. The man in the light green shirt smiled on his lips and said very politely: "You wait here, I'll call Xiaoliu Langzhong." β
"There's Brother Lao." Chen Qiuniang also returned the salute and stood in the hall waiting for Liu Cheng.
After a while, Liu Cheng lifted the blue cloth curtain and came out of the back room, wiped his hands with a white cloth, and asked, "Qiu Niang's wound hurts again?" β
"I went to Liuhe Town today, and the back and forth was bumpy, and the wound hurt." Chen Qiuniang replied loudly, expecting that the person in the room could hear clearly.
"You, what's the hurry? I said, I'll take you to town after the one or two days of medicine collection. Liu Cheng chuckled, and there was an inexplicable doting in his tone.
Chen Qiuniang bit her lip and said, "Human life is at stake, we can't wait." β
"What lives are at stake?" Liu Cheng asked in surprise, threw the white cloth aside, and gently motioned to show her the wound.
Chen Qiuniang lifted up her pants and exposed the wound before replying: "It's not that human lives are at stake, if you don't buy rice and noodles, your younger brothers and sisters will starve to death." β
Liu Cheng didn't speak at this time, but he lowered his head to look at her wounds carefully, cleaned her again, and took medicine before sighing and saying, "You still have to persuade your father." After all, the only person your family can rely on is your father. You're still too young, and you're a daughter's family, so you can't afford this home. β
"Hey, Brother Cheng, don't talk about this. I'm not afraid, who said that my daughter's family can't afford it? She said mischievously.
Liu Cheng was stunned for a moment, but said with emotion: "It's really good that you can think like this, it's really good." β
After that, Liu Cheng didn't know what to say, and he didn't even dare to cast his eyes. The atmosphere was awkward for a while, so Chen Qiuniang broke the silence and asked, "Liu Langzhong and Aunt Liu are not at home, and the patient on your side seems to be very tricky." Does Brother Cheng need my help? β
"It's all right." Yoo Seung hurriedly replied.
Chen Qiuniang said in an innocent tone: "I think all men are here." Boiling water, cooking a meal, is always not very good, and not too delicate. Brother Cheng did a good job. But you have to take care of the wounded. Just let me stay and help you, okay? β
"Thisβ" Liu Cheng was very embarrassed. Of course, Chen Qiuniang knew that he could not call the shots in this matter, that is, if she let her into the house before, she must have obtained the consent of the manager of the Zhang Mansion, or if Zhang Ci was awake, this matter would still be Zhang CitongguΓ². Chen Qiuniang's words indicate that she asked Liu Cheng, but in fact, she asked the people in the house.
It's just a matter of staying and meeting. This life-saving grace or something is the follow-up.
Listening to Ma Si talk about Zhang's tutoring background, it is an absolute good backer. And fate gave her such an excellent opportunity to meet Zhang Ci, the son of Zhangfu, and become his savior.
If she can catch up with Zhangfu as a backer, she is not afraid of ten Zhu Wenkang. As long as the broken matter on Zhu Wenkang's side is solved, her life will be brighter than half, and she can rest assured and boldly cooperate with Chen Wenzheng and let go of it.
"Brother Cheng, if you are embarrassed, then forget it. I'll go back first. Chen Qiuniang waited for a moment, and saw that Liu Cheng seemed to be waiting for the people in the house to speak, but the people in the house did not move. She retreated and said that she was going back.
"I, I'm mainly afraid that you will be tired. You've been running around Liuhe Town for a day, and your younger siblings still need yours. I'm ββ, embarrassed. Liu Cheng said something about the scene.
"I'm fine, I understand Brother Cheng." Chen Qiuniang spoke softly, got up and said goodbye to Liu Chengshi.
Zhang Ci, quickly call the old lady to stay, quickly call the old lady to stay! Chen Qiuniang limped out, and her heart was broken.
Sure enough, as soon as she walked into the courtyard, there was a window in the room on that side, and the man from before still chuckled and shouted, "Please stay girl." β
Ha ha! All of them follow the old lady's script, this gorgeous life, continue to follow my script. Chen Qiuniang was ecstatic in her heart, but she was pretending to be on her face.
She turned around and asked very politely, "May I ask the eldest brother, what are your orders?" β
"I heard you say that you are very reasonable. Mrs. Liu is not here, and there is no woman in our hunting team. The five big and three coarse men are always not fine, and they can't make it delicious, especially for the injured. The man stood at the window, his voice was gentle, and his gestures were exemplars of etiquette.
"This-" Chen Qiuniang held it, her heart was happy, but her expression and tone were hesitantly looking at Liu Cheng who was standing at the door of the hall.
"Oh, it won't be long, just a while. Early tomorrow morning, the cook and maid in Zhang's mansion will come in person. Girl, is it okay? The man said again, with all sincerity in his tone.
"Qiu Niang, your body is not recovering, today I went to Liuhe Town again, I am tired, go back and rest, here, the eldest brother can handle it." Cooking or something, I'm pretty good at it, and you've eaten my cooking. Liu Cheng immediately said, obviously not wanting her to wade into troubled waters here. This man always loved her like this. However, if she wants to get out of her present life, she is destined to encounter many dangers and gamble. And he is indeed the one who can't give her the happiness she wants, and he can't save her from her miserable situation.
"So, Liu Cheng, I can only live up to your kindness." Chen Qiuniang sighed in her heart, and replied: "I'm not tired." The wound was medicated and much better. Besides, Big Brother will definitely send someone to help me, right? As she spoke, she asked the young man.
She didn't need any reasoning and analysis to know that the other party would definitely not let her cook or boil water alone. Someone will definitely be sent to keep an eye on her in the name of helping.
"That's nature." The man was still standing in the room, standing through the window, and replied in the affirmative.
Chen Qiuniang stood still, bowed slightly, and said crisply: "Then it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate." β
The man smiled, beckoned to her, and said, "You come in first and see what happens to the prey ingredients caught today." β
"Okay." Chen Qiuniang replied and limped to the back room. I scolded in my heart: You lied to the ghost, can the prey ingredients be placed in the back room? Lying is not technical at all. Or maybe they think I'm a little girl, and even lie so perfunctory. Insult my IQ?
She cursed in her heart as she walked to the back room. Liu Cheng frowned and stood at the door of the hall, sighed lowly, and said, "You better go back and rest." β
"I'm fine, don't worry." Chen Qiuniang smiled at him and walked to the back room.
