Ning Zhili's lips moved a few times, but he couldn't speak, fortunately, Lan Ying happened to come back with a mirror at this time, Ning Zhili was on the verge of amnesty, and immediately pretended to be stupid and shouted at Lan Ying: "Sister Lan Ying, come and help me with medicine, alas, it really hurts me!" ”

Lan Ying walked over, the mirror was picked up by Ning Zhili, and Lan Ying raised the gauze again, and said solemnly: "Young Master Zhili has a mirror now, but don't move anymore, if you move and touch the wound, it will hurt even more." ”

Cao Shi and Ning Xia Qing, who didn't ask anything, glanced at each other, and both of them had helplessness in their eyes. Ningxia Qing opened his mouth and asked Cao's: "Hasn't Ah Zheng always followed his mother?" Why didn't I see him? My mother said that she sent someone to find Tan Ye for my cousin? Could it be that he sent Ah Zheng to go? ”

Cao nodded, and Ning Xia Qing turned his head again and asked Ning Zhili: "Cousin Zhili hasn't answered us yet, what's going on?" Why can't you tell Uncle Santang? ”

Ning Xia Qing asked like this, Ning Zhili's little eyes couldn't help but look at Ning Xia Qing from the mirror, but immediately glanced back with a weak heart. Ningxia Qing is different from the gentle Cao, Ningxia Qing is not gentle at all when she asks. Ning Zhili couldn't help but shrink his neck, and continued to pretend to be stupid and shout pain: "Sister Lan Ying, it hurts to death." ”

This person is still pretending to be crazy and stupid and addicted? And this Ning Zhili has been sneaking at Lan Ying, who has been medicating him, and he has a "Sister Lan Ying", he is really a useless waste boy. The more Ning Xia Qing thought about it, the more angry he became, and his tone suddenly became cold: "Cousin Zhili is so spitting, in my opinion, it must have caused something terrible." ”

When Cao Shi heard Ning Ningqing say this, he couldn't help but be stunned, and a sense of horror suddenly appeared on his face. Ning Zhili was silent, and Ning Xia Qing continued: "If you want me to say, either you killed people and lost your deeds, or you were caught by the owner for adultery, or you were ......."

"Oh, cousin, what are these words?" Ning Zhili couldn't cry or laugh: "I, I, I'm an honest person, how can I do that kind of thing?" ”

Ning Xia Qing said sarcastically: "I don't expect that my cousin Zhili is not a person who can do such a thing. If you want me to say, at most, the cousin owes someone money because of eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, and now he is being collected by the creditor. ”

Ning Zhili's face turned white, and he hurriedly looked at Lan Ying, and said, "Sister Lan Ying, good sister, you, you can help me distinguish a few words with my cousin......" As he spoke, he grabbed Lan Ying's hand.

Lan Ying immediately withdrew the hand that was applying medicine for him, and said coldly: "I am not familiar with Young Master Zhili, how can I tell what to tell for Young Master Zhili?" The medicine has been prepared, so please give birth to the young master. After saying that, he took the mirror and the medicine jar and left.

"Sister Lan Ying...... Lan Ying's sister ...... "Ning Zhili reluctantly looked at Lan Ying's back, pretending not to hear Ning Ningqing's words.

Ning Ningqing knew in her heart that she was on point, but she didn't have the leisure to care about Ning Zhili, so she said: "Since Cousin Zhili doesn't want to say it, it is inconvenient for me to continue to keep you here." Since Cousin Zhili didn't dare to see Uncle Santang, I will be a good person to the end, and let people send Cousin Zhili to Tan Ye, Cousin Zhili please. ”

"But, but...... Cheng, it's okay......" Ning Zhili didn't dare to look at Ning Ningxia's eyes at all, only lowered his head and muttered with a dejected expression.

Ning Ningqing said to Cao Shi warmly: "Mother has worked hard all the way, so I will go back to the house and rest first, and I will send him away if I am here for my cousin." ”

Cao Shi glanced at Ning Zhili, but he hesitated a little, and muttered to Ning Xia Qing in a low voice: "Wouldn't it be good to drive people away like this?" In the end, it's someone from my family, how embarrassing it will be to meet in the future if you drive it out like this...... Anyway, Ah Zheng has already gone to invite Tan Ye, let's wait for Tan Ye to come over. ”

Ning Xia Qing smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, my mother saved my cousin Zhili, and we have already helped my cousin Zhili take medicine, which can be regarded as benevolence and righteousness." Anyway, cousin Zhili is in a hurry to see Tan Ye now, instead of waiting for Tan Ye to come over here, wouldn't it be faster to send my cousin over directly? ”

The Cao family didn't want to say anything more, so Ning Xia Qing turned his head to Ning Zhili and said, "Cousin, please." I don't know if my cousin's injuries are serious, but if it's inconvenient to move around, I'll call someone to help my cousin out. ”

Ning Zhili waved his hand again and again with a dejected face: "No, no, no, no, I, I can still walk......"

Ning Zhili also knew that Cao's heart was soft, and opened his mouth slightly at Cao's, as if he wanted to say a few more words to Cao's for a while, but because Ningxia Qing's nail-like eyes kept staring at him, he had to purse his lips in fear, and got up and walked out dejectedly.

Ning Xia Qing followed Ning Zhili, and the intention of driving away the guests was obviously anxious. But as soon as he walked out of the gate of Huacaiyuan, he saw several strong men with fierce faces rushing towards him across the street. Ning Zhili was about to turn around and run towards Hua Cai Yuan, but several other strong men rushed over from another direction and blocked his way.

Ning Zhili was so frightened that he shouted "ah", and at the same time shrank down very quickly and hid behind Ning Ningqing, holding Ning Ningqing's shoulders firmly with both hands, and shrunking his head behind Ningxia Qing's shoulders, not daring to look up at those strong men.

The strong men surrounded the two more and more, Ning Zhili was so frightened that he even trembled in his voice, because his head was buried behind Ning Ningqing's shoulder, so even his voice was muffled, and he said cowardly: "You guys...... How did you get here? No、Didn't you say that you would pay back the money tomorrow? What are you doing here? ”

A strong man said rudely, "You don't want to fool us!" It's getting dark, and tomorrow is almost there, haven't you gotten the silver yet? ”

Another strong man also said very rudely: "I didn't expect you to hide in such a place, so that my brother would be easy to find, and if I didn't beat you badly, my brother would be played by you in vain today!" Brothers beat him! ”

At this moment, a woman shouted, "Don't fight, don't fight!" At the same time, several strong men rushed over and stood beside Ning Ningqing, it was Cuiyu.

The strong men didn't seem to really want to do it, and one of the strong men laughed: "Sister is in a hurry? Don't worry, my brothers are just scaring and scaring this kid. As he spoke, he turned around and said in a loud voice: "After all, this kid is the young master of the Ning family, and the brothers will not touch him easily." ”

Ning Zhili suddenly raised his head from Ning Ningqing's shoulder, and asked with a sad face and disbelief: "You ...... You already know who I am? ”

A strong man laughed triumphantly and said grimly, "That's nature." Moreover, if Young Master Ning doesn't pay back the money, the brothers will go to Master Ning San to ask for the account! ”

"Don't, don't...... Don't go to my father......" Ning Zhili immediately begged repeatedly.

The strong man smiled again, and looked at Ning Xia Qingdao with a lewd face: "But I see, Young Master Ning, who is not shallowly blessed, seems to have found a new look." Let's just do this, Young Master Ning asked your good friend to pay back the money for you, and the brothers won't go to find Master Ning San! ”

Jade immediately said angrily: "What nonsense? My girl is the cousin of Master Zhili! ”

"Cousin? This kid actually has such a good-looking cousin? The strong man was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly said, "Cousin is better!" Since they are relatives, they should help this kid pay back the money! As he spoke, he confidently put Ning Zhili's IOU with his handprint in front of Ning Ningxia's green face.

Before Ning Xia Qing could speak, Gu Feng also squeezed in, and said to the strong men kindly: "Don't worry, although this girl is Young Master Ning's cousin, she is not a real relative, if you want to pay the account, you should go elsewhere and ask for it." ”

Ning Xia Qing also said coldly: "The money he owes himself will be repaid by himself, don't say that I am just his cousin, even if I am his own sister, the money he owes has nothing to do with me." After speaking, he wanted to shake off Ning Zhili.

But Ning Zhili took Ning Xia Qing as a life-saving straw, refused to let go of Ning Xia Qing without saying anything, hid behind Ning Xia Qing and didn't come out, let Ning Ning Qing scold him, Ning Zhili just shamelessly refused to let go of Ning Xia Qing, who had nothing to do with this matter, and begged while hiding: "Cousin save me!" Cousin save me! ”

Those strong men wanted to drag Ning Zhili out from behind Ning Ningqing, but seeing that Ning Zhili was so shameless, these people lost their patience and said arrogantly: "Since this kid is dependent on you, don't run away!" "After speaking, I will arrest Ningxia Qing together.

"Why are you all here?" Cuiyu hurriedly went to protect Ning Ningqing, but was pushed away by a strong man, fortunately she was supported by Gu Feng, otherwise Cuiyu's back of the head would probably have to be knocked out. Ningxia Qingdeng also panicked, seeing that a strong man's hand was about to touch his arm, and at this moment, that hand suddenly and quickly retreated.

With it, the strong man who went to arrest her was retreating rapidly, and Ning Xia Qing only saw that the face that had turned from arrogant to frightened was getting farther and farther away from him, until the whole person fell out, and Ning Xia Qing saw that it was Ah Zheng who suddenly appeared and took the strong man away.

When the other people saw that Ningxia Qing was coming to help, they all rushed towards Ah Zheng angrily, but how could these people be Ah Zheng's opponents? Ah Zheng easily threw out a few, and all the strong men who came to stir up trouble were stunned, and those people were lying on the ground ouching, trying to stand up, but they couldn't stand up.

Ah Zheng stood in front of Ning Xia Qing, his face was extremely unkind, and he asked coldly: "Since it's okay, Young Master Zhili should let go of my girl, right?" ”

Ning Zhili was stunned for a moment, then let go of the hand that was firmly holding Ning Ningqing's shoulder, and said, "That...... I...... I didn't mean to get my cousin in ......."

However, Ah Zheng was not listening to Ning Zhili at all, when Ning Zhili let go of Ning Ningxiaqing, Ah Zheng reached out and pulled Ningxia Qing, and sent Ningxia Qing to Dong Zizhen and Cuiyu's side, the pale Cuiyu hurriedly hugged Ningxia Qing, crying and said, "Is the girl okay?" Just scared the hell out of me......"

Ah Zheng glanced at Ning Zhili, then clasped his hands, obviously saying that he was just trying to protect Ning Xia Qing, and he didn't want to care about Ning Zhili's affairs.

Ning Zhili saw that Ning Xia Qing, who was originally used as a shield by himself, had been pulled away by Ah Zheng, and in a hurry, he saw that Ah Zheng was closest to him, and he planned to hide behind Ah Zheng without thinking about it, but his impatient footsteps were nailed to the spot by Ah Zheng's cold gaze.

At this moment, Tan Wenshi pulled Ning Zhili from behind. As soon as Ning Zhili saw Tan Wenshi, he was closer than he saw his relatives, and he almost cried: "Steward Tan ......"

Tan Wenshi glanced at the few strong men who hadn't been able to stand up yet, and immediately said to Ning Zhili, "Let's leave this place quickly." ”

Ning Zhili nodded immediately, but Ning Xia Qing came up to stop Ning Zhili and Tan Wenshi, and said angrily: "I am a weak person, and I couldn't help my cousin Zhili today, don't blame Cousin Zhili, so let's help Cousin Zhili go to the third cousin to intercede, let the third cousin come forward, and this matter can always be solved." ”

Ning Zhili was about to cry, and begged repeatedly: "Don't don't, good sister, don't go to my father to complain......"

Tan Wenshi had no choice but to clench his fists and apologize to Ning Ningqing for Ning Qili: "What happened just now was that the young master was rude, and the young master was also in a hurry to panic, and I hope that Miss Xia Qing will not blame." Miss Xia Qing forgive the young master for what he did just now, but don't go to the third master to complain, otherwise the young master will really die. ”

Ning Xia Qing snorted angrily, and after spreading the fire, he didn't bother to climb in this matter anymore, and said impatiently: "Okay, I know, why don't you leave quickly?" ”

The strong men had already staggered up, Tan Wenshi saw this, and hurriedly hugged his fist at Ning Xia Qingyi, and then pulled Ning Zhili and climbed into the carriage and ran.

Those strong men stood up and chased a few steps after Tan Wenshi's carriage, but Tan Wenshi's carriage ran fast, and those strong men would definitely not be able to catch up.

Those people could only glance at Ah Zheng hatefully, but they didn't dare to step forward and mess around again. And the owner of the debt had already run away, so naturally they would not continue to waste time in Huacaiyuan, so they immediately climbed into the carriage and looked in the direction where Tan Wenshi left.

Ning Xia Qing sighed at this time, and hurriedly instructed Cuiyu: "There was such a big movement just now, the old lady and the wife are afraid that they have heard it, you hurry up and go in to report your safety, just say that Ning Zhili has left, and there is nothing to do with us." ”

Jade nodded and ran to the backyard. Ningxia Qingchang breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Ah Zheng fearfully: "Fortunately, you came back in time......

Ah Zheng frowned and said unhappily: "How can Ning Zhili get to such a point?!" What does it look like to hide behind you?! ”

Ningxia Qingdu smiled angrily at Ning Zhili, and said coldly: "I didn't expect him to be ...... like this."

Ah Zheng snorted impatiently, and asked again: "By the way, what about the shopkeeper Dong?" Why haven't you seen him since you came back today? Did you send him out on an errand? ”

Ning Xia Qing shook his head and said, "No, it's Uncle Dong's illness that is serious again, and he can't get out of bed, Dong Zizhen went home to carry Uncle Dong to see a doctor." He probably hasn't had much time to worry about the shop lately, so you should bother more. ”

"Well, I know, I'm going to see Uncle Dong tonight, and by the way, I'll send some gifts in your name." Ah Zheng said.

Ning Xia Qing instructed again: "Hmm." By the way, the shop should be restocked, but the second master's workshop may have been busy recently, and the output may not be enough, so we have to buy a little from somewhere else, you go and count the inventory, and then discuss with Dong Zizhen where to buy. ”

Ah Zheng was puzzled: "Is there something wrong with the second master?" ”

Ningxia Qing replied: "Nothing happened, but a batch of lists dyed by phoenix plants and trees came, and the second master was in a hurry to catch up with this list." Then, Ningxia Qing told Ah Zheng in detail about the previous events.

Ah Zheng handed Ningxia Qing a cup of tea and said: "In this case, we have to find a way to buy goods from other places, and we have to be careful, the goods outside are definitely not as reliable as the goods of the second master, so I have to pay attention to them when the time comes." ”

Immediately, Ah Zheng said worriedly: "The patriarch is right, the third master will not let us go easily." ”

Ning Xia Qing raised his eyebrows indifferently, and said quite smugly: "Yes, I estimate that I should pull a few shops to reduce the price together, and fight a price war with us." But I'm not afraid of him, I have a way to deal with him. ”

Ah Zheng smiled and said, "You always have the most ideas." ”
