Liu Yong smelled the sour taste in Guo Dequan's words, and just smiled. He wanted to know why Guo Dequan didn't appear at Lord Zhizhou's family banquet. But he didn't ask. It's just that in turn, I asked Guo Dequan to take care of it in the future. Guo Dequan said a few perfunctory words.

Ma Shifan interjected and asked, "Brother Liu, I heard that you are also going to run a sauce shop?" ”

This is no secret, Liu Yong nodded and said, "Please also ask Senior Ma for more advice." ”

Ma Shifan smiled but said nothing.

Zhang Dujian exclaimed: "What? Brother wants to do the business of a sauce shop? ”

"Exactly." Liu Yong replied.

Shi Qiang put down his wine glass and shouted, "Wow, okay, Brother Liu." It's quite profitable to make a sauce shop. Look at Big Brother Ma, he became the richest man in Meizhou City by relying on a vat of sauce! Isn't it, Big Brother Ma? ”

Ma Shifan didn't like to listen to Shi Qiang, so he glanced at him.

"Hehe, Big Brother Ma, don't turn me over, I'm telling the truth." Shi Qiangting is good at observing words and feelings. However, his words still made the atmosphere a little awkward.

A middle-aged man smiled: "Then your brother Shi is the second richest man in Meizhou City, right?" ”

"Hehe, in front of Big Brother Ma, my Shi Mou has no choice but to be second." Shi Qiang shook his head, as if reciting a poem.

The crowd laughed.

Zhang Dujian said: "Brother Ma, Liu Yong is now my good brother Zhang, he will be a sauce shop in the future, and please take care of your Brother Ma." Your big brother Ma is Taishan Beidou in this sauce shop world. ”

"Hehe, Lord Zhang is overrated. Ma just inherited the meager property of his ancestors. What Taishan Beidou, don't dare to be it. As he spoke, he paused, and said: "I think Brother Liu is very capable, and he can transport goods to Western Xia when the war is burning out at this pass, which is not something that ordinary people can do." I can't do it. So, in the future, I still ask Brother Liu to take care of Ma. After Ma Shifan finished speaking, he toasted Zhang Dujian with a glass of wine.

Everyone could hear these words, and he was unwilling to help Liu Yong. Zhang Dujian naturally heard it, and was quite unhappy in his heart. wanted to say a few sarcastic words, but when the words came to his mouth, he was stopped by Liu Yong.

"Hehe, since Senior Ma looks at me Liu Yong like this, then I Liu Yong will visit your house more often in the future. It's also good to give lessons to the old horse seniors. After Liu Yong finished speaking, everyone laughed.

Liu Yong was joking, but Ma Shifan was a little annoyed when he heard it, but he was helpless at this wine table.

"Okay, the old man is waiting for Brother Liu to visit." Ma Shifan arched his hand, and his face had changed.

The middle-aged man, seeing that the atmosphere was not right, hurriedly raised his glass and raised his glass.

The meal lasted nearly an hour.

Outside the door of the restaurant, Liu Yong saw off Zhang Dujian and everyone before walking to the carriage. At this time, another carriage approached. Liu Yong looked over and saw that it was Ma Gan who came to pick up his father. At this moment, Ma Shifan and Guo Dequan were talking to a few people in the lobby.

"Yo, isn't this Brother Liu?" Ma Gan walked over, his expression a little light.

Liu Yong still arched his hand very politely and said, "Oh, it's Brother Ma." ”

"What? Brother Liu also came here to eat? It seems that Brother Liu has really made money. "Ma Gan is still light. But listening to his words, he didn't seem to know that Zhang Dujian invited Liu Yong to dinner.

"This money, I Liu Yong did make some money, but I don't need to make my own money when I come here to eat." Liu Yong said with a smile.

"Oh? Could it be that someone invited Brother Liu's guest? Ma Qian asked.

Liu Yong nodded.

"But I don't know who it is?" Ma Gan asked, with an unshakable smile on his face.

"It's Metropolitan Eunuch Zhang, Lord Zhang." Liu Yong said lightly.

Although the words were light, Ma Gan listened to it like thunder, and the smile on his face immediately froze. Speechless for a long time in astonishment.

Liu Yong was amused in his heart, and he didn't want to quarrel with Ma Gan, because Ma Gan was no longer at the same level as himself in his eyes. But he still bowed his hand politely and said, "Let's go first." ”

Please note: Please pay attention to the rest of your eyes for a long time. Net Recommendation:

sp; Ma Gan stood still, as if he hadn't heard Liu Yong's words.

Liu Yong smiled, and when he was about to get into the car, a person flashed out from behind the carriage.

"Please ask for some money." The voice was poignant, it was a woman's voice.

The woman asked Liu Yong directly for money. Liu Yongzheng turned sideways, and without looking at the man, he knew that it was a beggar, so he took out two pieces of money casually, turned his head and handed it to the beggar. The overflowing light in the lobby of the restaurant was hitting Liu Yong's face.

"Take it." As Liu Yong spoke, he saw that the beggar was the beggar woman and the little boy in the barbecue shop.

At this time, the beggar woman saw Liu Yong's face clearly, her body trembled suddenly, she was stunned for a while, she didn't take the money, she pulled the child and turned around and ran.

Liu Yong's money was held in mid-air, confused. "Why is she so afraid of me? Don't...... Know me? After a moment of contemplation, he put away the money and got into the carriage. Lin Qingrou was waiting for him inside.

"Brother Yong, are you talking to Ma Gan?" Lin Qingrou had already seen Ma Qian through the gap in the car curtain.

Liu Yong nodded, but said, "I met the beggar woman with a little boy again." ”

"What?" Lin Qingrou didn't understand.

"Oh." Liu Yong first asked the groom to drive away, and then said what had just happened.

"I guess the woman must know you." Lin Qingrou's thoughts are the same as Liu Yong's.

Liu Yong nodded, but he couldn't guess who the woman was.

……

"You stop."

The beggar woman stood panting at the shouts behind her, and the next moment Ma Gan stood behind her.

"What are you chasing me for?" The beggar woman asked, turning her back.

"Do you know that guy?" Ma Gan asked rhetorically.

"What does this have to do with you?" The beggar woman said.

"I'm just asking if you recognize you." Ma Qian said.

The beggar woman did not answer.

In an uproar, Ma Gan took out two or three taels of silver and walked to the woman and handed it to her.

"Why, beggars are not scarce in silver?" Seeing that the woman didn't answer, Ma Gan asked with a smile.

The woman hesitated for a moment before taking the money.

"Thank you, official." After that, he was about to leave.

"Huh? Don't go, you haven't answered my question yet? Ma Qian shouted.

The beggar woman paused, hesitated for a moment.

"Yes, I know that man."

Ma Gan smiled, and his smile was very weird against the street lights.

……

Back at the inn, the landlady asked Liu Yong: "Official, why didn't Yingying come back with you?" ”

"Oh, she's living in a new house." Liu Yong replied.

"Hey!" The old woman sighed. The landlord, who was busy on the side, stopped what he was doing, looked over, and sighed.

Liu Yong understood that the two elders knew that they wouldn't be able to live here for long, so they sighed.

"Mother-in-law, I'll ask Yingying to come back to see you tomorrow." After saying that, he went upstairs.

I lit the candle and thought of the beggar woman.

"Who is she?"

But I couldn't figure it out.

"By the way, why hasn't Brother Hua Lang come back yet? It's been almost two days. Could it be that something is wrong? Thinking of this, his heart was a little apprehensive. He was not worried about Brother Hualang, but Li Xinniang and Yun'er.

Tonight, he thought, was another sleepless night.

If Lin Hualang doesn't come back tomorrow, he will go directly to Qingshen County.
