Chapter Twenty-Three: Don't Ask, You Just Don't Know If You Ask

"Xu Bai has really changed!"

In the alley of the Xu family, Baili Susu was busy with the female red in his hand, while talking to his father, and his bright eyes were sprinkled down from under the osmanthus tree in the yard, as if the mottled points of light sprinkled on them were all with the fragrance of osmanthus.

Bailiqi lay on the chair under the tree, squinting in the sun, thinking about his own business, not hearing what his daughter was saying.

"Daddy!"

Seeing that his father didn't respond, Baili Susu screamed angrily again, and Baili Qi opened his eyes: "What are you talking about?" ”

"I said that Xu Bai really seems to be a different person in the past few days!" Baili Susu repeated what he had just said: "I don't mix with Li Fugui and the others anymore, they are all serious people, they go out early and return late every day, I asked, he is doing things in Shen Ji Pharmacy, and Master Shen is very optimistic!" ”

"That's up to him to be restless!" Bailiqi said leisurely: "Isn't it a little strange that you said this, I have known his father for so long, why haven't I heard that he still knows such a rich man as the Shen family, if you know, just follow the Shen family to do some business, don't we all look for a fortune?" ”

"It seems that the master of the Shen family has only made a fortune in the past few years!" Baili Susu tilted his head and thought for a while: "When I was a child, I never heard of the Shen family master on Qiban Street, maybe the Shen family master was poorer than our family at that time!" ”

"That's it!" Bai Liqi slapped his thigh: "This is reasonable, in this way, this Master Shen can also be regarded as a person who knows how to repay his kindness, there is no news about this Xu Sanduo, but he also left some legacy for his son, not bad, not a fool!" ”

"Then don't mention anything about kissing in the future!" Baili Susu glared at his father fiercely: "I don't seem to be able to marry if you make it like this!" ”

"Hey, hey, hey!" Speaking of this, Bailiqi couldn't help laughing, he didn't take Su Su's shame to heart, his own daughter, just this little temper, it's over, but remembering that the day before yesterday he had nothing to do to go to the big dream goddess, and the big dream goddess saw that his face changed and turned around and left, he felt funny.

"This kid is a little stunned!" He smiled and nodded: "That is, you like this stunned young man, this is going to be someone else, pointing fingers at my daughter's family affairs, you see that I don't turn my face, I Bailiqi is not easy to bully!" ”

"Anyway, if you talk about my family affairs again, I'm angry!" Baili Susu glanced at Bailiqi: "Xu Bai also said, he will work hard in Shen Ji for a year or two, and then our affairs will be done, anyway, I will be him in this life, no matter how others are, I don't want it!" ”

"With me, if this kid doesn't mix up his personal appearance, he will never be able to marry you!" Bai Liqi's face was pale, and he suddenly thought of something, and his face became a little weird: "Then the nerd of the Liu family, if the eight characters were good enough, he would have already been in the middle of the show, this kind of thing that can't be picked up by the shoulder, will it be time to wait for my daughter to raise him?" ”

Su Su looked at his father and didn't answer the conversation.

However, Bai Liqi seemed to be a little interested, and simply sat up: "Susu, I heard that the nerd's uncle in the official mansion seems to have disappeared recently, do you know about this?" ”

"I don't know anything!" Su Su shook her head in denial.

"No, it's the day you went to your aunt's house and came back, someone saw that guy being dragged out of Xu Bai's house, and his head was beaten and bleeding, some people said, you were also there at the time, isn't it!"

"Dad, don't ask about this, ask me, I don't know anything!" Su Su pursed her lips and was very resolute.

"My daughter is older, and my father can't ask a word! Ay! Bailiqi lay down again, "If he gets married in the future, I'm afraid that his hard-working father will starve to death at home, and this daughter won't come back to take a look, and this heart is all towards outsiders!" ”

Baili Susu turned a deaf ear, bowed his head and busily worked on the female red in his hand, as if this little work was the most important thing in the world at this moment.

"Whose heart is it towards?" There was a creak outside the door, and the door of the small courtyard was opened, and someone walked in.

"Brother Lin Fan, why are you here!" Bailiqi stood up, this is the partner who does business with him, the two have cooperated for many years, although the business is not big, but their respective families, but they all rely on the business of the two of them to live.

"Something!" Lin Fan glanced at Su Su and smiled reluctantly: "You mean Su Su!" ”

"Uncle Lin!" Su Su stood up, "You sit, I'll pour some water for you!" ”

"This kid is so sensible!" Lin Fan looked at Su Su's back, praised casually, and turned his head: "Baili, our ship has been detained in Liujiagang, and the ship's family has been arrested by the government, as if the ship was found to be carrying prohibited things, and now the goods of the whole ship will be confiscated!" ”

"Our cargo is on board!?" Bai Liqi stood up suddenly: "It's all detained, can't you get it out for some money?" ”

"I can't figure it out!" Lin Fan's face turned dark: "This time it was not the people from the Inspection Department who investigated, but the Jinyi Guards, who knows what kind of illness those Jinyi Guards committed, they never cared about these things, but this time they did such things!" ”

"This is someone who has ordered water, there is prohibited cargo on board, and we will suffer together!" Bailiqi was also a little panicked: "We have all received the subscription money from others, and the family foundation and subscription money of our two families have entered these goods, if this thing can't be obtained, let's go bankrupt, I'm afraid that we will have to pay a lot of money for the first money!" ”

The casual pleasure of chatting with his daughter just now had long since disappeared, and he paced back and forth, anxious, but he never thought of a good idea.

"Don't you know the brother-in-law who patrolled the horse, and ask him to help with this?"

"I asked, he didn't even dare to open his mouth about this matter, and Ma Patrol said one more word, and now people are suspected of having something to do with this batch of goods, who dares to open his mouth again!"

"What the hell is this forbidden thing, why is it mixed with our goods, is this boat really making money and even don't want to die?" The more Bailiqi thought about it, the more angry he became, it was really a person sitting at home, and disaster came from heaven.

He was still thinking about it just now, after this transaction was completed, probably Su Su's dowry would be settled, and this sudden thunderbolt from the sky suddenly made all his plans come to naught.

"Firecracker!" Lin Fan said weakly: "The imperial court decrees, people who hold firearms, at least three thousand miles, or kill their heads, I don't know which daring things to do these things, they want to die, they do their own death, why bother us!" ”
