Chapter 126 is advantageous
"Since I found your head, I definitely won't run in vain. Aunt Zhou, you are Mama Gong's sister-in-law, Mama Gong is now the eldest grandmother next to her grandmother, her identity and face are also among the best among the grandmothers of the major families in Jincheng. Why didn't Mama Gong even mention it all these years? If it weren't for me checking the long house, I wouldn't know that Mama Gong's family has a big brother and sister-in-law. ”
Aunt Zhou kept a smile on her face dryly.
"Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, I can guess the situation of your family, I dare not say anything else, but you also know the style of the Qiao family, businessmen, pay attention to interests, if I can get the expected benefits, eliminate risks, and still maintain my own people."
"Third Miss......" Aunt Zhou's eyes lit up.
Qiao Yixi smiled slightly, "Let's talk about business first, the matter of the long house, since it was done by Aunt Zhou, presumably Aunt Zhou will keep it." ”
Aunt Zhou smiled and looked at Qiao Yixi vigilantly.
Qiao Lixi said disapprerovingly: "Aunt Zhou doesn't have to be so guarded against me, since I came to the door in person, it means that I am very sincere, otherwise, do you think you can keep those things?" ”
It definitely can't be saved.
That was the trick she left for herself, and it was also the reason why she didn't take the initiative to find her sister-in-law over the years.
Wealth and danger are sought.
Although Aunt Zhou is a village woman who has never seen the world, under the stimulation of greed, she is very good at judging the situation and knows what is beneficial to her.
Back then, those things were handed over to the sister-in-law, and after receiving a sum of silver, the silver and goods were both gone, and the connection with the sister-in-law was completely severed.
is the daughter who was sold, and there are more involved, and the more troubles there are, not to mention that it also involves this kind of pickled matter, the east window incident, and the backyard of Qiao's family is going to be a river of blood.
It's just that she has an extra heart, and she secretly kept a copy of those things and guarded them like a life talisman. Over the years, although she has cut off contact with her sister-in-law, she has been paying attention to the situation of the Qiao family.
The Qiao family's business is getting bigger and bigger, and the sister-in-law's status in the Qiao family is getting higher and higher, she is not unpopular, but she has never thought of exchanging those things for benefits. What she wants is not the silver that is called Hanako, she wants glory and wealth!
So in the most difficult time, she didn't think about using those things.
She can't really see the situation of the Qiao family, but she also knows that the Qiao family is the world of the long house, and she also thought about finding the eldest master of the Qiao family and selling the things in her hand to him, so that the other party can buy peace of mind and peace, and she will buy a wealth and nobility. Although some of these things are still in the hands of Old Madam Qiao, it is very easy to destroy the corpse with the means of Old Master Qiao.
It's just that she didn't expect that it was Qiao Jinwen who found her in the fourth room.
When she learned the identity of the other party before, she knew that those things could not be saved, and while regretting it, she was also calculating the greatest interests.
She stared at Qiao Lixi for a long time before she said slowly: "Third Miss, there are indeed some things in the hands of the people's women, but ......"
"I'll buy it," Qiao Lixi said directly, "Aunt Zhou thinks those things can be sold for what price, just ask, of course, I'm not wronged, Aunt Zhou is a smart person, and she knows what it means to stop in moderation." I'm determined to get those things, and if it weren't for the people in the long house who have been jumping so hard recently, I wouldn't have found you. I might as well make it clear that I am ready to do something to the long house, and since I dare to do this, I am naturally fully prepared, but I don't want to be hindered by these things, so I am very sincere to find you. Aunt Zhou, you and Mama Gong did this business back then, it was you who broke your trust first, although the Qiao family is just an ordinary businessman, it is still easy to kill a person silently. ”
"Third Miss......" Aunt Zhou "pounced" and knelt on the ground, "the woman ......"
Waving her hand, Qiao Lixi looked at her condescendingly.
Aunt Zhou, who was full of confidence before, is now completely wilted.
She knew that the things in her hands could reach the sky in one step, or they could kill their family.
When communicating with Qiao Jinwen, she didn't dare to have extra words, one was to hang her appetite, the other was to protect herself, and of course, she also had the meaning of sitting on the ground.
The letters are all passed on by the middleman, she thought that Qiao Jinwen would not come to the door so quickly, but she didn't think of how to trade, so Qiao Jinwen came to the door.
It came too quickly, too suddenly, too strongly, and she was not mentally prepared at all!
"Aunt Zhou, salute first and then soldier, I have explained my thoughts and intentions, now, you can talk about yours."
The reason why Qiao Lixi patiently talked so much to Aunt Zhou was not because she had any scruples, nor did she dare to do it, but because she deliberately went around in circles, not to mention that Aunt Zhou was confused, but she herself said that she was confused.
She knew that her bad taste was coming, and she couldn't stop it!
Of course, the more Aunt Zhou says, the more she reveals, and the information she gets is pieced together, and the truth is about to come out!
"The things are in the women's house." Aunt Zhou said resignedly.
"It's just right, I haven't gone around yet, let's go get it together."
Without giving Aunt Zhou a chance to speak, Qiao Yixi put down the teacup, got up, and went out.
Aunt Zhou and Mama Shen got on the ox cart in the town, two cents per person, and Qiao Yixi sat in the carriage, followed from a distance, out of the town, and drove towards the village.
A little far from the entrance of the village, Qiao Yixi's carriage stopped, Astragalus handed over the pastry, and she sandwiched a piece of mille-feuille cake to pass the time.
It was Wei Nanshui who drove the carriage.
Qiao Lixi called him back from Zhuangzi before leaving, and sitting side by side with him was Ma Biao, who Qiao Lixi brought back from Chaotianmen, and he was also half of Wei Nanshui's master. In addition to these two people, there are also two guards, which can be regarded as a very safe lineup.
In less than a stick of incense, Mama Shen came back.
After getting into the carriage, Mama Shen took out a piece of oilcloth paper and handed it to Qiao Yixi, "Little Miss, this is it." ”
"Have you seen it?"
"Yes, little miss, the old slave has verified it himself."
Now Qiao Yixi was relieved, and she didn't ask what was in the oil paper bag, but just asked Mama Shen to put it away.
"Little Miss......"
Qiao Yixi said clearly: "I must tell my father about this, I don't worry about writing a letter, let's go directly to northern Sichuan." ”
Anyway, she came out under the banner of visiting her parents in northern Sichuan, and she couldn't say anything if she didn't go.
"I won't say that the old witch is the person in charge, Mama Gong is the person in charge, but I didn't expect Qiao Jinwen to know." On the carriage, Mama Shen whispered.
At this time, there were only Qiao Yixi and Mama Shen in the carriage, and Huang Qi knew that the master had something to say, so he took the initiative to go outside and huddle together with Ma Biao and others.
Mama Shen's voice was very low, and the movement of the carriage on the road was very loud, so she didn't worry about Wei Nanshui and Astragalus hearing it.
As the Gu family, Mama Shen only defends Wei Nanshui and Astragalus who are not members of the Gu family.
"I guess I learned about it by accident, otherwise she wouldn't have let people check it. I still underestimated Qiao Jinwen's combat effectiveness, I didn't expect her to have the ability to find out here, but it also saved me a lot of trouble. ”
"The letter between Qiao Jinwen and this side was intercepted by the old slave, and he replied in handwriting according to the instructions of the little lady, for fear that Qiao Jinwen would come over suddenly."
"She is not afraid to come, everything has been obtained, and she came for nothing. I'm not afraid that she will know that I cut off the beard, originally these were her biggest dependence, and in my hands it was a timing and bomb, which blew up the old witch to the ground. The situation is in my favor, we have the advantage. ”
Mama Shen nodded, "This matter has to be considered in the long run." ”
"Ask my father what he means first, and if necessary, my grandfather will also tell him."
The first is to let them know the truth first, so as not to be caught off guard when they are killed, and second, it is also to let them have a psychological preparation, maybe they will need to use the strength of the Gu family at that time.
Back in town, packed up their things, retreated from the yard, and Qiao Yixi and his party set off in the dark.
From southern Sichuan to northern Sichuan, the delay on the road is a bit long, Qiao Yixi can also endure hardships, the carriage went all the way to the north, non-stop, day and night, Wei Nanshui and Ma Biao took turns driving the carriage, and actually caught up with the advance troops who disguised them before.
Seeing the embarrassed appearance of the large army, Qiao Lixi said funny: "What are you doing here, you have been robbed?" ”
"Miss, it's not that I've been robbed," the wolfberry said unkempt and dirty, "There have been many assassinations along the way, and the slave and maid can see Miss alive, I really have to thank God." ”
"So serious?" Qiao Yixi slightly retracted the smile on her face, "Assassination? ”
"Miss Hui, it's really an assassination," this word wolfberry learned from those guards, afraid that Qiao Lixi would not believe it, and hurriedly swore and said, "Those people have big knives and long swords in their hands, and when they see the slave and maid, they will cut at the slave and maid, but fortunately, the slave and maid are alert, and they can't get out of the carriage when they are killed, and the outside is handed over to those guards and big brothers, without their protection, slaves, slaves and maids ......"
After sobbing twice, Goji said fearfully: "Later, when those people saw that they couldn't force the slave and maid to show up, they shot arrows first to disrupt our rhythm, and then attacked at close range. Miss, if we hadn't been slowed down by those people, we wouldn't have walked for more than ten days to get here, and we would have arrived in northern Sichuan a long time ago. Miss, the slave is not afraid of anything, I am afraid that I will never see Miss again. ”
"How?" Mama Shen reprimanded.
Goji was excited, and hurriedly explained: "Miss, the slave maid has no other meaning, the slave maid is afraid that she will not have the opportunity to serve the young lady again." ”
"Okay, I see, now we're catching up with you, you don't have to worry."
"Miss," Goji suddenly said with a solemn expression, "It's better for the slave to continue to pretend to be you, anyway, the slave and the maid are used to it, those people have been killed by us several times, but they don't give up, and they have assassinated us several times along the way." ”
The wolfberry still bites the "assassination", and the more serious it is, the more Miss pays attention to it.
"How many times?" Qiao Yixi rubbed her chin and smiled playfully, "How persistent is it, it seems that no matter who wants my life, he must have paid a large sum of money in advance for the other party to attach so much importance to me." ”
