Chapter Ninety-Eight: Showing Up as a Warning
Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!
The whole thing has happened, Yin Zhi has already heard Yin Xing talk about it, in fact, the person who really saved the little sister this time was neither Yin Xing nor Deng Feng, but Liu Xiu.
He was full of doubts in his heart, and he didn't understand why Liu Xiu had to propose to visit his little sister in Yuexiang Pavilion at that time. He asked, "Uncle Wen has already seen through Wang Jin's tricks?" ”
Liu Xiu shook his head and said, "If I had already seen through Wang Jin's tricks, I would never have given him another chance to sneak into Miss Lihua's boudoir." ”
"That'...... Why did Uncle Wen insist on visiting his little sister? ”
"Maybe it's a gut feeling, there's always a feeling that something bad is going to happen." The so-called intuition is actually a kind of passive information obtained by the subconscious of people who put together many details that are easy to be overlooked.
Yin Zhi looked at Liu Xiu for a while, bowed to him deeply, and said: "This time the Yin family owes Uncle Wen a favor, if Uncle Wen needs it in the future, even if he puts it forward, as long as the Yin family can do it, he will go all out." ”
Liu Xiu's heart moved, and she immediately replied: "Save Miss Lihua, I don't ask for anything in return!" ”
As the saying goes, the speaker has a heart, and the listener is more intentional, as soon as Liu Xiu's words came out, Yin Zhi immediately became keenly aware of what he wanted.
As far as the heart is concerned, Yin Zhi still admires Liu Xiu very much, but he can't be the master of the little sister's life events, it depends on the little sister's own wishes.
He smiled slightly and said meaningfully: "There have always been many people who don't ask for anything in return for their little sister. ”
Liu Xiu smiled: "I know. ”
"Good luck Uncle Wen!"
"I also want to thank my second uncle for agreeing!" Liu Xiu knows very well in her heart that the gap between her family background and Yin Lihua is too big, as long as Yin Zhi does not object to her pursuit of Yin Lihua, it is equivalent to agreeing with herself.
Yin Zhi smiled indifferently, raised his finger and pointed at the saber under Liu Xiu's ribs, and said, "Even the 'magic sword' agrees with Uncle Wen, and I don't seem to have any reason to object." However, I also want to remind Uncle Wen that Yuan Zhi has admired his little sister for a long time......" He didn't say any more.
Everyone is a smart person, and there are some things that don't need to be said too bluntly.
The two brothers Liu Xuan and Liu Xiu want to raise troops against recklessness, so they naturally need the assistance of talented people, and Deng Feng is the talent they urgently need.
If in order to compete for the heart of the little sister, it will eventually lead to the evil of Liu Xiu and Deng Feng, so that the Liu brothers will lose a powerful boost, this will be more than worth the loss in the eyes of Yin Zhi, and it is not a wise move.
Liu Xiu understood, he smiled indifferently and said: "What Xiu appreciates and is willing to make friends with is a husband!" Liu Xiu's words are also very straightforward, since everyone likes the same woman, can they please the hearts of beautiful women, everyone can compete fairly, if there is a mustard because of this incident, or even a grudge, then the mind is inevitably too narrow-minded, too ungenerous, such a person is not enough
Seek it, or don't pay it.
A touch of surprise flashed in Yin Zhi's eyes, and he was stunned for a moment, he looked up and smiled, arched his hand to Liu Xiu, and said sincerely: "The second uncle has been taught." ”
Regardless of whether Liu Xiu will make great achievements in the future, at least he has the heart to achieve great things now.
Liu Xiu bowed his hand to Yin Zhi and said, "Uncle Wen farewell!" ”
Back in the carriage, seeing that Yan Guang was also there, but he didn't seem to be in good spirits, Liu Xiu asked, "Ziling, has Zijun woken up?" ”
"Hmm." Yan Guang lowered his head and replied lightly.
Liu Xiu asked curiously, "Ziling, what's wrong with you?" Did something happen? ”
Yan Guang immediately raised his head and said, "It's okay, Miss Zijun is fine." ”
"Oh, that's good." Seeing that Yan Guang was reluctant to say more, Liu Xiu did not ask any more questions, and everyone took a carriage and returned to Deng's mansion.
When he arrived at the Deng Mansion, Liu Xiu came out of the carriage and was just about to enter the gate of the Deng Mansion, when at the mouth of the alley not far away, someone poked his head out and shouted at Liu Xiu in a low voice: "Liu Xiu! ”
Deng Yu, Yan Guang, Zhu You, and Gai Yan, who were walking beside Liu Xiu, all heard the man's low shout, and turned their heads to look at it in unison.
Liu Xiu took a closer look, and the person who poked his head out of the alley turned out to be the thief Jiu'er.
He was stunned for a moment, then walked over, Deng Yu and the others followed Liu Xiu and came to the mouth of the alley together.
Looking at Jiu'er who was here at the mouth of the alley, shrinking his head and brain, with thief eyebrows and rat eyes, Liu Xiu couldn't help laughing and asked, "Jiu'er, are you waiting for me here?" ”
Jiu'er glared at Liu Xiu and muttered dissatisfiedly, "Who is waiting for you?" After a pause, she asked again: "I heard that in the underworld, one of Wang Jin's hands was cut off. ”
Liu Xiu nodded and said happily: "You are quite well-informed." ”
Jiu'er asked nervously, "Does this matter have anything to do with you?" ”
"Uh......" Liu Xiu hesitated for a moment and said, "More or less, it also has a little relationship!" Although Wang Jin's right hand was cut off by Deng Feng, in fact, the real driving force behind the scenes was him Liu Xiu.
Jiu'er frowned and looked at Liu Xiu, and said: "If this matter is related to you, then you have to be careful, Wang Jing may have no choice but to take the Yin family, but he will never be polite to you, now Wang Jing has transferred back all the masters in the Zhuangzi outside the city, and it seems that he intends to wait for an opportunity to retaliate." ”
Wang Jing has a lot of industries in Xinye, in addition to the mansions and shops in the city, there are several Zhuangzi outside the city, each of which has a lot of families and nursing homes, if these people are gathered together, the strength should not be underestimated.
Liu Xiu looked at Jiu'er and asked puzzledly, "How do you know this?" ”
Jiu'er pursed the corners of her lips and said arrogantly: "Of course I have my news channel. After a pause, she said again: "You helped me, and now I have helped you again, you and I don't owe each other." With that, she turned to leave.
Liu Xiu raised her hand to stop her. Jiu'er stood still, but didn't look back, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
He asked, "What are your plans in the future, or continue to be a thief?" ”
Jiu'er turned her head angrily, glared at Liu Xiu, and asked in a deep voice, "What does it have to do with you?" ”
Liu Xiu smiled and waved her hand to Jiu'er, signaling that she didn't have to be angry, and she had no malicious intent. He pondered for a moment and said, "If you don't want to be a thief anymore, you can consider following me." ”
Jiu'er subconsciously took a step back, her eyes were full of vigilance and coldness, staring at Liu Xiu, and asked in a cold voice, "What do you want to do?" ”
Liu Xiu didn't expect that his words would make Jiu'er have such a big rejection reaction, he was stunned for a moment before reacting, Jiu'er must have misunderstood what he meant.
He said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm not as good as Ji Nu!" ”
The so-called Ji Nu has the same meaning as a prostitute, except that a prostitute specifically refers to a boy, and a Ji Nu specifically refers to a girl.
In Liu Xiu's eyes, Jiu'er is a little girl about the same age as his own little sister, how could he think of Jiu'er differently?
Seeing that Jiu'er's eyes were still full of vigilance and hostility, Liu Xiu said: "I see that you are quite well-informed when you inquire about the news, how about helping me do things in the future?" ”
When Jiu'er heard this, she understood what Liu Xiu meant, and the vigilance and hostility in her eyes dissipated a little, and she said, "You want me to be your slave?" ”
"Subordinates, partners, to be exact."
"Why? Why should I be your subordinate? Jiu'er asked unruly.
Liu Xiu said: "I can support you, and I can also support your brothers and sisters." ”
His words touched Jiu'er.
Jiu'er is an orphan, and he and his friends spend most of their lives begging, and occasionally do petty theft.
But she herself knows that this is not a long-term solution after all, but it is too difficult for half-grown children like them, who have no relatives and no support, to survive and gain a foothold in such a troubled world.
She pondered for a moment, snorted heavily, and said, "I'll consider your proposal, remember, I'm just considering!" ”
After speaking, she glanced at Liu Xiu, didn't stop any longer, turned around and ran into the depths of the alley, and in the blink of an eye, her thin figure disappeared into the night.
Deng Yu and the others stood aside from beginning to end, without interjecting, looking at the direction in which Jiu'er disappeared, Deng Yu walked to Liu Xiu's side and said with a smile: "This little girl is quite interesting!" ”
Liu Xiu asked in surprise, "Zhonghua, do you see that she is a girl?" ”
Deng Yu was also surprised and asked, "The lord doesn't think she's a boy, right?" ”
Liu Xiu secretly said ashamed, Deng Yu recognized Jiu'er as a girl when he saw her for the first time, and when he saw Jiu'er for the first time, he did treat her as a young man. He shook his head and smiled, and explained to everyone: "Jiu'er is an orphan, Xinye's main job is begging, her part-time job is stealing, and there are many peers with her. They use the identity of beggars as cover, and no matter where they go, they will not arouse suspicion, and it would be appropriate if they could find out the information
It doesn't fit. ”
Speaking of this, Liu Xiu smiled bitterly again: "But now it seems that she has rejected me." ”
Deng Yu smiled, shook his head and said, "I don't think so." With the unruly character of the Jiu'er girl, if she really has the heart to refuse the lord, she will definitely refuse on the spot, and will not say that she wants to go back and think about it. ”
"Oh?" Liu Xiu's heart moved, and he looked at Deng Yu with bright eyes.
Deng Yu continued: "No matter how big it is, it is estimated that Miss Jiu'er will not be able to make her own decisions, she has to go back and discuss it with her companions." ”
Liu Xiu thought about it and felt that what Deng Yu said was not unreasonable, and he said quietly: "I hope so!" ”
There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, as soon as Liu Xiu got up, he heard the news of Zhang Ping's arrival.
Liu Xiu was overjoyed and walked quickly to the front hall.
When he arrived in the hall, he raised his eyes and saw Zhang Ping and Deng Chen greeting each other. Liu Xiu said excitedly: "Brother Ping! ”
"Ah Xiu!" When Zhang Ping saw Liu Xiu, he also smiled and bowed to him.
Liu Xiu asked in surprise: "Why did Brother Ping come to Xinye?" ”
Zhang Ping pointed at Liu Xiu and said, "It's not because of your letter?" ”
After a pause, he said with a straight face: "The general has already read the letter written by Ah Xiu, and knows that there is a shortage of manpower on your side, so he asked me to bring two hundred strong brothers over for reinforcements." When Liu Xiu and Deng Chen heard this, they said in unison: "Great! The latter couldn't wait to ask, "Jingzhi, where are the two hundred brothers now?" ”
