Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Thief Is Captured
Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!
Liu Xiu owed a debt, and said with a smile: "I'm tired of worrying about Yin Gong, the two brothers are all right." ”
Hearing this, Yin Lu raised his eyebrows, and the smile on his face deepened a little.
Deng Chen turned around and beckoned to the servants he had brought.
A young servant stepped forward quickly and handed a brocade box to Deng Chen, who took it, handed it to Yin Lu, and said with a smile: "Yin Gong, this is a small gift brought by the junior to Miss Lihua, and please accept it with a smile." ”
Yin Lu smiled head-on and said, "It's good for people to come, so why bring any gifts." ”
Deng Chen smiled indifferently and opened the brocade box casually.
Everyone present stretched their necks curiously and looked into the brocade box, where a small purple bead was placed. People who know the goods can't help but exclaim: "Zhu Yanzhu!" ”
Zhuyan pearl is actually a pearl, but the color is special, very rare, it is said to be worn on the body of the living, can play the effect of rejuvenation, contained in the dead mouth can play a role in embalming.
Those who can have Zhuyan beads are basically rich and noble.
Seeing the gift brought by Deng Chen, Yin Lu was also surprised, Yin Zhi, who was standing aside, took a step forward, and said: "Brother Wei Qing's gift is inevitably too valuable, please ......"
Unable to finish speaking, Deng Chen interrupted with a smile: "It's only a bead, how can it be precious?" Yin Gong will accept it on behalf of Miss Lihua! ”
Deng Chen brought the gift, and it was indeed not good to return it, Yin Lu finally nodded to Yin Zhi and motioned for him to accept Zhu Yan Zhu.
Yin Lu's attention to Deng Chen, as well as the generous gifts brought by Deng Chen, can be seen that the relationship between the Yin and Deng families is not comparable to others.
Wang Jin, who was sitting on the side, narrowed his eyes and suddenly asked, "Brother Weiqing really has a big family and is generous, but I don't know what gift Liu Gongzi brought to Miss Lihua?" ”
With his words, the eyes of everyone present fell on Liu Xiu again.
Yin Lu and Yin Zhi and Yin Xing frowned secretly, Wang Jin didn't know that Liu Xiu was just a villager in the countryside, where did he have the money to buy expensive gifts? Wang Jin asked, sincerely wanting to make Liu Xiu make a fool of himself on the spot.
Yin Zhi and Yin Xing didn't like Wang Jin as a person, and seeing Wang Jin's thoughts, they were about to help Liu Xiu out of the siege, when the latter raised his hand and touched it into his arms, and took out something wrapped in silk cloth, which looked flat and wide.
He slowly opened the silk cloth, and everyone present looked at it intently, and couldn't help but be disappointed, it turned out that Liu Xiu took out only an inkstone, and it was an ordinary, ordinary inkstone.
After seeing it, Wang Jin couldn't help but laugh on his back, stroked his palm and said: "Liu Gongzi is really 'such a big hand'!" Ha ha! I think this inkstone is worth a hundred dollars on the market, right? ”
As soon as these words came out, the guests in the hall couldn't help but laugh. The gifts they brought may not be as good as Deng Chen's Zhuyan Pearl, but they are more than a thousand times stronger than the inkstone brought by Liu Xiu.
Liu Xiu ignored Wang Jin's cynicism and the laughter of the rest of the guests, and his demeanor remained calm as usual. He said slowly: "This inkstone, I bought it when I was in Taixue, I have not been willing to use it, after leaving Chang'an, after returning home, every time I see this inkstone, I will remember the time when I went to Taixue." I heard that Miss Lihua's writing does not allow her eyebrows, so I made a special trip to bring this inkstone.
Send it to Miss Yu Lihua. ”
His words clearly conveyed two messages.
First, he is not a simple country villager, but a 'high-achieving student' who has gone to Taixue, in terms of academic qualifications, there are really few people present who can compare with him, and they are not qualified to laugh at his background.
Second, no matter whether the value of this inkstone itself is large or small, but the significance to him is extraordinary, and he is willing to take out this inkstone as a gift to Yin Lihua, which also shows how much he attaches importance to Yin Lihua.
Yin Lu looked at Liu Xiu with bright eyes, he really didn't expect that the young man in front of him would resolve the embarrassment and embarrassment in just a few words, and it made people feel that the value and significance of the inkstone he gave were better than Deng Chen's Zhuyan Pearl.
The courtesy is light and affectionate, and this is very appropriate for Liu Xiu's inkstone.
There was silence in the hall for a moment, and Yin Lu took the lead in laughing and praised: "The virtuous nephew really has a heart!" Xing'er, on behalf of his father, accepted Axiu's heavy gift. ”
Yin Xing walked up to Liu Xiu excitedly, took the inkstone in his hand, and then bowed to Liu Xiu, and Liu Xiu immediately returned the salute.
Wang Jin, who was sitting below, had a gloomy face that was about to drip water, looking at Liu Xiu's gaze, as if he wanted to eat him alive.
Wang Jing, who was sitting next to him, suddenly stretched out his hand, patted the fist he put on his thigh, and whispered happily: "Calm down, there is a time for you to 'perform' today." ”
Hearing his father's words, Wang Jin took a few deep breaths in a row, and his originally clenched fist slowly loosened, and when he looked at Liu Xiu again, the corners of his mouth were hooked, revealing an evil sneer.
At this time, Liu Xiu turned his head and met Wang Jin's gaze. Seeing Liu Xiu looking at him, the smile on Wang Jin's face deepened a little.
Liu Xiu subconsciously squinted his eyes, although he didn't know what Wang Jin was laughing at, but his intuition told him that Wang Jin must not have been kind.
He smiled indifferently and nodded to Wang Jin.
Without waiting for Wang Jin to react, a man dressed as a housekeeper bowed down, took small steps, and trotted to Wang Jin, knelt down behind him, and whispered a few words in his ear.
After hearing his words, the smile on Wang Jin's face immediately stiffened, he no longer paid attention to Liu Xiu, turned his head, and glared at the strong man behind him viciously.
The man shuddered with fear from his eyes, hurriedly lowered his head, and whispered a few more words, as if to explain something.
Wang Jin didn't have the heart to listen to him at all, he waved his hand, interrupted the strong man's words, and whispered a few words to him. The strong man nodded repeatedly, then stood up, still bowing, taking small steps, and exiting the hall.
Liu Xiu's gaze followed the big man to the courtyard outside, and after the big man left the hall, he immediately quickened his pace, like a fire burning his buttocks, and strode towards the outside of the underworld, as if he was going to do something urgent.
At this time, Yin Lu and Deng Chen's greetings had come to an end, Deng Chen pulled Liu Xiu and sat down on Yin Lu's left hand side, Deng Yu, Yan Guang and others sat behind the two of them.
Not long after they sat down, Deng Quan's family also arrived.
Seeing Liu Xiu here, Deng Feng's eyes lit up with his father, and when his father was greeting Yin Lu, he came to Liu Xiu's side, squatted down, and whispered: "Uncle Wen, I found the person you asked me to find." ”
Liu Xiu was stunned, in his impression, he didn't ask Deng Feng to help find anyone?
Seeing his blank face, Deng Feng smiled and said, "Didn't you meet a thief on the day you first came to Xinye?" On the way to hell today, I happened to run into it. ”
Hearing this, Liu Xiufang suddenly realized that when he chatted with Deng Feng, he did mention it, saying that he had met a thief on the first day he came to Xinye, and he had taken all the money on him.
However, he didn't ask Deng Feng to help him find the thief, but he didn't expect that Deng Feng was really concerned about this matter.
He smiled and asked, "Yuanzhi, where is he now?" ”
"I'm tied to the wagon."
"Sure it's the thief who stole my money bag?" "Can't be wrong, it's exactly what you described! Let's go, I'll take you to see him! Deng Feng tugged at Liu Xiu's sleeve with great interest. The latter stood up with him, greeted Deng Chen, and then made a color to Deng Yu, Yan Guang and the others, signaling them to stay here and go back by themselves
。
Liu Xiu followed Deng Feng and left the hall quietly, and as soon as he walked to the courtyard outside, he heard someone behind him ask, "Big brother, where are you going?" ”
The two of them looked back and saw Deng Zijun also running out of the hall. Deng Feng stroked his forehead helplessly, and said dissatisfiedly: "Zijun, what are you doing with you?" Go back! ”
Deng Zijun looked at the two of them suspiciously, and asked, "Where are you going?" You won't do shady things, will you? ”
Deng Feng almost laughed angrily, glanced at his little sister, and said, "Didn't I catch a thief on the way to hell?" That thief had also stolen Uncle Wen's money before, and I took Uncle Wen over to recognize someone! ”
Deng Zijun was immediately interested when he heard this, and said with a smile: "I'll also go with you to have a look." ”
Deng Feng also had nothing to do with his little sister, so he could only shake his head helplessly and say, "Let's go!" ”
The three of them left the underworld and went into the alley on the side of the underworld. It was full of horse-drawn carriages and lined up on the side of the road.
Deng Feng found his carriage, nodded to the two servants standing next to the carriage, and then jumped into the carriage with Liu Xiu and Deng Zijun. Entering the carriage, Liu Xiu looked down, and sure enough, there was a person lying in the carriage, not only his hands and feet were firmly tied, but even a lot of ropes were tied to his body, which looked like a human-shaped zongzi, in addition, his mouth was also stuffed with a lot of strips of cloth, and his cheeks were all around
Bulging.
Deng Feng said to Liu Xiu: "This thief's ability is amazing, if you just tie his hands, he can break free in a few clicks, I have no choice but to tie him up like this!" ”
Liu Xiu has a deep understanding of Deng Feng's words. Since he took the gold liquid, his six senses are extremely keen, far better than ordinary people, but the other party can unknowingly take such a big money bag from him, and his kung fu is amazing, which can be called superb, perfect.
Liu Xiu walked up to the man, squatted down, looked carefully, and after looking at it for a long time, he couldn't confirm whether this person was the thief who took his money bag.
He stretched out his hand and grabbed the strip of cloth from the other party's mouth, and it took a lot of effort to pull all the strips out of the other person's mouth.
The other party returned to his original appearance, Liu Xiu looked at it again, this time he could be 100% sure that this person was the thief who was kindly saved by him at the beginning, but he took revenge and took advantage of the chaos to touch his money bag. Seeing the other party's eyes widen and look at him in shock and horror, he couldn't help but burst out laughing and said, "Little brother, the mountains and rivers have met, you didn't expect that we could meet again, right?" ”
