Chapter 94
The uncle who sold hairpins looked at him with strange eyes and muttered: "How can there be gold sellers in the stalls, you should go to the jewelry store to find it." ”
Li Jingyun turned her head and asked her, "Where is the jewelry shop?" ”
The corner of Hua Yue's eyes twitched: "You're not going to the tea shop?" ”
"Let's go look at the jewelry first."
Hanatsuki was a little impatient, but thinking of the two points, she still endured it and pulled Yusuke and Shi to move forward.
Li Jingyun followed slowly and methodically, his eyes fell on her back, and he couldn't see what the emotion was, but he didn't turn away.
Hanazuki didn't notice it, but Yusuke glanced back at him, his eyes showing confusion.
In Yusuke's eyes, his father is very fierce and serious, most people are afraid of him, he walks at the forefront, and he can follow a large group of people behind him. Daddy can talk a lot to people, twists and turns, he can't understand a word, but after speaking, the person opposite is always sweating profusely.
This is the first time I have seen my father so quiet, without saying anything, and willingly walking behind people, like a saddled horse.
He wanted to let go of his mother's hand and pull his father, but as soon as he had this thought, he was glared at by his father.
Yousuke is very aggrieved, he is only two years old, he doesn't want to understand the face of adults, and he wants to be willful, but Zaohui's intelligence does not allow it, he can only honestly pull his mother and continue to move forward.
The jewelry shops in the town are very ordinary, far less magnificent than the Baolai Pavilion in Jinghua, Huayue brought people to wait outside, Li Jingyun didn't say anything, and went in to choose by himself.
Shi Xiang and Youjie you pushed me to play a little trick, Hua Yue took out the account book she was carrying when she was idle, and looked at it, and felt that the corner of her skirt was being dragged by someone.
"Mother, get in quickly." Shi Xiang suddenly shouted.
Hua Yue was stunned for a moment, and when she looked down, she saw that his brows were furrowed, and she said with a wary expression: "Don't look outside." ”
The last time I saw him with such a look was when Buzhuang met someone who came to find fault. Hua Yue understood, pulled the two children and entered the door.
After a while, the two people also followed into the door, and Xiao Er's glance knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked with a smile: "What do you want to see as a guest officer?" ”
Hua Yue stood in the corner of the wall, pinching the hands of the two children and glancing at the afterglow, okay, the road is narrow, and the horse is far away.
As I said before, the girl's family must be bullied when they come out to do business, Huayue and Frost naturally have also met those who jumped over the wall in the middle of the night, Ma Chengyuan is one of them, she was beaten by her, and she didn't dare to jump over the wall again, but on weekdays, people will also go to Buzhuang to find trouble, don't smash, only stand at the door, forcing the guests not to dare to enter the door. Each time he had to give some money to pass away, and the man would take someone away.
Hua Yue had a headache for him for a long time, and now he bumped into him with two children, so it was naturally better to avoid it.
However, Ma Chengyuan saw her, chased her into the door, and leaned in front of her with a smile: "Shopkeeper Yin, haven't you seen her for two days?" ”
Pulling the child behind him, Hua Yuepi didn't smile.
Ma Chengyuan came over and caught a glimpse of a child, so he said: "It's easy to meet it, you will settle this month's silver, and you will save our brothers from going to Buzhuang again." ”
Shi Xiang grabbed Yusuke's hand, his eyes were watery, Yusuke glanced at him, went out two steps to block Huayue, looked up and said: "When the street is blocked by women and children asking for money, what kind of rule is it?" ”
Ma Chengyuan was taken aback by this voice, looked left and right with an exaggerated expression, and then lowered his head disdainfully, and said with a smile: "What rules do you have to discuss with Lao Tzu?" Get out of the way, and don't step on you. ”
With a slightly heavy face, Hua Yue pulled away and said in a muffled voice: "I didn't bring any silver when I went out, you can ask people to go over and get it tomorrow." ”
With high eyebrows, Ma Chengyuan squinted his small triangular eyes, stretched out his hand and said, "Then you have to remember to leave a door for me tomorrow." ”
The gangsters in the town, their hands are naturally unclean, and Hua Yue has also done something with him, but she runs a cloth village, and she can't get good against these local snakes, and she has to spend money on soup and medicine, so she doesn't move, anyway, she picks her chin and touches her face, and she just goes back and washes her face.
So Ma Chengyuan stretched out his hand as usual, and said happily: "When did you figure it out, my silver is still your silver-"
Child.
Before the last word could be spoken, a sound broke in the air, and it exploded in front of his eyes.
The bright red blood penetrated the skin and bones, seeping out along the tip of the hairpin, and the delicate silky gorse hairpin head was covered with blood, swaying back and forth with the hanging bead spike.
The hand that was close at hand was pierced in half.
Hanazuki's eyes widened, and before she could take a breath, her body was pulled down by Yousuke, and her relieved hand was quickly raised, one in each hand, covering her eyes.
“……”
Ma Chengyuan didn't react for a while, and looked at it in a daze for a while before he screamed miserably.
The customers in the store were startled and ran out one after another, Xiao Er came over to take a look, and stepped back with fear in his eyes: "Pierced the ......"
The hairpin tail is not very sharp, but it can penetrate the palm from the back of the human hand, how much effort should it take? Xiao Er wiped his face, trembling and wanting to find the shopkeeper, but when he turned around, he saw the shopkeeper also trembling standing by the counter, in front of him, was a guest with an empty hairpin box, looking at Ma Chengyuan's side with dark eyes, and the action of throwing things had not been completely contained.
Xiao Er's eyes widened.
Ma Chengyuan screamed more than once, the brother who followed him stepped forward to support him, turned around and saw the person who did it, and scolded: "I'm impatient!" ”
Li Jingyun thought about it seriously and nodded: "It's a little." ”
The two brothers have been swaggering together for a long time to collect protection money, and the first time they met someone who replied like this, they were a little choked for a while. Ma Chengyuan burst into tears of pain, covered his hands and shouted at him: "Go to the yamen, if you don't go bankrupt today, don't want to leave this Huaiyong City!" ”
With a chuckle, Li Jingyun turned his head and said to the shopkeeper: "Take another one and send it to the place I said earlier." ”
The shopkeeper's face turned white, and then he handed over the silver, and his lips trembled.
Li Jingyun didn't have the extra mood to appease the onlookers, he walked towards Ma Chengyuan, looked down at him and asked, "You want to go to the Yamen?" ”
His all-round style was a little overwhelming, Ma Chengyuan looked up and down, and his tone softened a little with choked tears: "It's okay to be private, you can pay two hundred taels of silver." ”
The heart is really dark, Hua Yue shook her head, opened her mouth to say that the injury was almost fifty taels, and she heard a sound of footsteps outside the door.
Her eyes were still blindfolded, and she couldn't see who was coming, only to hear Ma Chengyuan suddenly squeak and shout: "What are you going to do!" ”
Then the mouth was gagged and dragged out with a whimper.
Hua Yue hurriedly took the hand of the release, but when she raised her eyes, she couldn't see anyone, the door of the store was empty, and there was only one Li Jingyun in front of her, and two traces of blood left on the ground.
"You brought someone with you?" She frowned.
Li Jingyun asked blankly, "Who is it?" Fang Cai, the official patrolling the city, took him away. ”
Such a coincidence? Hua Yue didn't believe it, but she looked left and right, and she really couldn't see any movement, so she said: "That person is used to being arrogant in the town, if you have the intention of eliminating harm for the people, you'd better be ruthless, otherwise he will come out, and I will suffer." ”
"Yin Zhangshi also has something to be afraid of?" His tone was oddly authentic.
I haven't heard this name for a long time, Hua Yue was in a trance for a moment, and shook her head: "Life is in the world, those in high places are afraid of falling, and those in low places are afraid of waterlogging, who doesn't have something to be afraid of." ”
"At least you don't have to be afraid of that when you're around me." He snorted coldly and spat out a word, then flicked his sleeves and stepped out the door.
Is this a run on her, or is it a hint at her? Hanatsuki pursed her lips, she wasn't interested in anything it was, so she pretended not to hear it and continued to show him the way.
Li Jingyun has a lot of things to buy, the jewelry shop went out to the tea shop, picked and picked for a while and then went to the carpenter shop, Hua Yue was really tired with the two children, so when Li Jingyun stopped next to a restaurant, she said without hesitation: "The food in this house is delicious, you can try it." ”
It's not early, in fact, she should go back to Buzhuang, but this master has been very anxious to purchase, and she didn't dare to retreat halfway.
Looking up at this restaurant, Li Jingyun's eyes showed some disgust, but there was no better place to be, so he just walked in the door and asked for a table of wine and food.
Finally able to sit down and rest, Hua Yue hurriedly arranged the two children and rested herself.
"Your Excellency is not going back to the barracks?" She asked tentatively.
Li Jingyun said with a solemn face: "I just hurt someone, I have to stay in the city, in case the local yamen summons me, I won't rush back and forth." ”
"Can you look at these two children first?" Hua Yue said, "The carriage from the city to the town was packed up and went home half an hour ago, and they had to walk back, and these two children were trapped like this, and they couldn't stand the toss." ”
Glancing at her, Li Jingyun said, "You can rest here for one night." ”
Hua Yue subconsciously refused: "No need, I don't have enough money on my body, you can take them with you, and I can go back to Buzhuang." ”
The little dog who has been running outside for two years is finally a little smarter and not so easy to deceive. Li Jingyun lowered his eyes and drank tea, and the dark light in his eyes surged: "Yes." ”
"There is labor." Hua Yue got up, stopped eating at the same table with him, and went out to find the ox cart back to the town.
In the usual evening, many ox carts would rush out of the city, and Hua Yue walked to the gate of the city, thinking that he could go back by waiting for a few copper plates. However, she finally reached the gate of the city, only to see that the soldiers guarding the city were closing the gate.
"Hey, sir?" Hua Yue hurriedly stepped forward, "Why is it so early today?" ”
The soldier glanced at her and drove her to the side: "There are murderers in the city making trouble, the order of the yamen, you are no longer allowed to enter and leave at this time, you can go back." ”
Go back, where are you going? If she wants to go back, she should go back. Hua Yue frowned and tiptoed, but saw that the city gate had been closed with a "clang".
