Chapter 12 Blackmailed?
Before Lu Li could speak, the little fire flashing outside the window caught her attention first.
In the middle of the night, these people were in a hurry with torches to do something?
Soon, the firelight gradually faded away, Lu Li poked his head out and looked, in the distance, Qin Hai also took the torch and joined the large army, he seemed to have given some order, the torches were extinguished one after another, and the large army also dispersed.
Under the stove, Gong Chengqi's eyes darkened, and the next moment they returned to normal, he got up and re-lit the candlelight, dusted off the ashes stained on his robe, and lifted the lid of the steaming pot, the hot porridge inside was still bubbling.
"Incense!"
He rolled up his sleeves heroically, picked up the wooden spoon from the side and was about to go to the pot, Lu Li saw this, and hurriedly hit the back of his hand.
"This is my porridge."
She took the lid back on the pot and covered it, showing her stinginess.
"Little girl, do you dare to hit me if you know who I am?" Seeing that Lu Li didn't know him, Gong Chengqi poured out his thoughts of teasing, put down the wooden spoon, hugged his shoulder and looked at her with a smile, "What's more, this back kitchen should not have the rule of opening a small stove in the middle of the night, right?" ”
"I don't care who you are, anyway, in this back kitchen, it's my aunt's world." Lu Li muttered quietly, but glanced up and down at the dress of the person in front of him.
Dressed decently, judging from the fabric, it should be a rare thing in this village, and then look at the dust on this kid's body, and there is a sword in his hand, it can be seen that he has just returned from school drills.
Looking at this face again, the eyebrows are clear, the skin is white, the eyebrows fly into the temples, and the appearance is quite handsome, and it can be regarded as a talent.
In this sparrowhawk village, except for the three masters, his status should not be low.
Look at his clear eyebrows and eyes, and then think about the six-foot rough man of the big boss, it is unknown whether he is the wife of the big boss.
There was a guess in her heart, Lu Li's expression also changed, and she opened the lid of the pot very flatteringly.
"This big brother, Fang is my clumsiness, you can enjoy tonight's porridge, as long as you don't denounce me."
Lu Li took the wooden spoon, carefully filled the bowl, and handed it to Gong Chengqi with both hands.
I have never seen a character who changes his face so quickly, and Gong Chengqi, who has always hated the hypocrisy of others, couldn't help but smile, stretched out his hand to take the porridge, and raised his head to drink.
"It tastes good."
He curled his lips and smiled, and only four words flashed in Lu Li's mind.
Bright eyes and bright teeth.
This stunning beauty is comparable to a beautiful woman, but there is no sense of delicateness, only makes people feel handsome and elegant.
Thinking about it, it is a little inferior to the cautious Lord Shangguan.
"This big brother, you can drink as much porridge as you want, but you have seen me tonight......"
"Rest assured, walk out of this door, I've never seen anyone in the kitchen tonight."
Sure enough, to talk to a wise man is to be happy,
"It's just ......" he paused deliberately, deliberately hanging Lu Li's curiosity, "I wonder if there will be a bowl of hot porridge when I come back here tomorrow night?" ”
This person is too smart, and it's not all good, and when he calculates people, it also makes people hate itchy.
"That's nature." Lu Li replied with a smile and gritted his teeth secretly.
When she finds out where the disaster relief money is going in the coming day, she will definitely give him a big gift when she leaves.
After sending this master away, Lu Li washed the dishes and chopsticks, returned to the bedroom and collapsed, sighing deeply,
yes, not only did I not see the big boss, but I also caused a lot of trouble for myself.
But since she has met Mrs. Zhai, it is better to start with this Mrs. Zhai, from him close to the big boss, it is much easier than the miscellaneous servants who deliver food.
In the cafeteria the next day, Lu Li finally met Ding Xiaobiao after a three-day absence.
This Ding Xiaobiao must have come for her, as soon as he came up, he grabbed her wrist, took off her apron and threw it aside, and pulled her to sit down at the square wooden table where she was eating.
"I've been in the village for the past few days, but I didn't think they would drive you here to help." Ding Xiaobiao's eyes were a little guilty, he grabbed Lu Li's hand and looked at it carefully, looking at the cocoons in her palms, and felt even more guilty, "I should have arranged for you before I left, and you won't help in the kitchen today, my friend Ding Xiaobiao, how can you burn the fire and wash the dishes every day?" ”
This Ding Xiaobiao is simple-minded, after the contact on the day he entered the village, he really regarded Lu Li as his own.
But because of this, Lu Li was reluctant to get too close to him.
"It's okay, the two tigers treat my sister in general, I was born not as beautiful as my sister, I am fortunate to have a job in the village, and there are two tigers to help me, not bitter at all."
"Who says you're not as beautiful as your sister?" Ding Xiaobiao immediately retorted, "I think that you are the most beautiful, and the ten sisters are not as good as you." ”
"Thank you for the praise." Lu Li smiled shyly, and when he raised his eyes to look at Ding Xiaobiao, he was also smiling, but his expression was extremely shy, and his face was also red.
Ding Xiaobiao returned to the village, Lu Li had the backing, and her waist straightened up a lot, she nodded implicitly, and Ding Xiaobiao offered to let her go to Shangguan Yinling's wing room to visit her sister.
At night, Shangguan Yinling drove away a few bandits who came to harass him, and sat at the table for half a cup of tea, when the courtyard door was knocked again, he clenched his fists, his fingers clicked, and when he opened the door and was about to show his strength, Lu Li's surprised face appeared in front of him,
"Sister, sister wants to kill you!"
Lu Li pretended to be surprised and rushed up to give Shangguan Yuling a hug, and the latter's whole body stiffened, and it was not until she let go of her hand that her expression gradually eased.
"Sister, you've come to see me."
Looking at his perfunctory performance, Lu Li decided to show him what it means to be truly vivid.
She eagerly grasped Shangguan Yuling's hand and held it in her palm, with tears in her eyes as if she was pouring out her longing.
"Sister, what have you discovered lately?"
"Yes," Shangguan nodded matter-of-factly, "There are a lot of hooligans in the stockade. ”
Lu Li paused, and didn't know how to answer for a while.
The two pretended to be affectionate and walked into the room, and they both shook off their hands the moment they entered the room.
"Is there any progress in disaster relief?"
As soon as she entered the room, Shangguan Yinling was sitting at the table drinking tea, her eyes raised slightly, and her fierce and majestic gaze fell on Lu Li's head, which made her nervous.
"Back to my lord, there is no progress in the disaster relief funds for the time being, but I have successfully approached the good friends of the big bosses, and I believe that I will be able to investigate the whereabouts of the disaster relief funds in the near future......"
Lu Li clenched his fists and bent over, and when he saluted, he didn't dare to look up at Shangguan Yuling's eyes.
She was afraid of being tortured to death by his eye knife.
"Master Lu, do you think that I came with you to make friends?"
His voice was extremely cold, like ice, Lu Xun tightened, his brain turned rapidly, and before the words of explanation could be spoken, he only heard a rapid knock on the door.
"Is the big girl there? I'm here to deliver you something. ”
