Chapter 118: To kill someone, you have to add money
Under the city gate, pedestrians patrol in and out one after another.
"Stop! What are you carrying on your back? The gatekeeper came and stopped the woman.
The woman lifted her dark and ugly face and said lazily, "What can I carry?" This sack is all the herbs I dug up in the mountains, go to the city pharmacy to exchange some money, what's the matter, you want to buy it? ”
The city guards looked at each other and pointed to the woman: "What is your surname, where do you live, and which pharmacy in the city do you want to exchange for?" ”
"No, sir? Why are there so many people, you just ask me, isn't the big newspaper posted on your wall catching female thieves, look at me, am I like a female thief? ”
"Don't talk so much nonsense, you can say whatever you ask!"
An old man pushing a wheelbarrow passed by the woman, and was also stopped by another city guard for interrogation.
Liao Niangzi sneered in her heart, and suddenly clutched her stomach, "No, no, no, my wife I'm going to have a stomach, hurry!" Fast! Let me into town. ”
Her shouting was so loud that the passers-by laughed one after another, and the city guard's face was even more ugly.
Liao Niangzi pretended not to stand firm and leaned towards the little city guard, her rough fingers mixed with gray powder sprinkled on the man's bare wrist.
Seeing that she was so disobedient to the order, Xiao Chengwei was even more annoyed and yelled: "If you make trouble again, you will be arrested as a suspect!" ”
"Official, official, don't, don't! Oops, I remember," she patted her head and replaced it with a smile, "It's the pharmacy of Sikong's family in the city, they designated the medicinal materials for me to send, hehe complains that my wife is old and forgets about this stubble, you dissipate your anger and let me go!" ”
"Okay Xiaowu, let her go, she can't be a thief at such an age." Another city guard cleared the siege.
The city guard who called Xiao Wu turned his head and snorted, and cleared the road in a huff.
Liao Niangzi bowed and walked away, only to snort slightly.
Most of the pharmacies in the city were managed by Sikong's family, so the woman looked for the nearest home and went in with a cold face.
It was noon, and there were many people looking for medicine and consultation, but the young man still noticed her sharp-eyed, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet her: "Liao Niangzi, you can count it as coming!" ”
"Alright, don't talk nonsense." Liao Niangzi threw the sack to the ground to relieve her strength.
The guy looked at the sack and frowned distressedly, but he still couldn't hold back and complain.
"Then what should you call and collect, old lady, I will go around for a while and then come back to count the money!" When the woman had finished speaking, she turned and left.
The young man walked around the sack, caught up with Mrs. Liao, and said in a good voice: "Don't be in a hurry to leave, I still haven't told you something!" ”
There were too many people in the pharmacy, and the young man deliberately lowered his voice, but he didn't dare to get too close to the woman, so he could only frown and wink as he spoke.
Afraid that he would not be able to express himself clearly, the woman called at him with a big mouth, so as soon as the words fell, he smiled and asked, "Do you still understand what the little one said just now?" ”
Liao Niangzi frowned, and asked with a calm face, "Whose young lady do you mean wants to ask for medicine?" ”
The young man showed a smile and said, "The little daughter of the Zhen family, Zhen Xian'er." ”
Liao Niangzi's eyes were full of doubts and asked, "Which Zhen family?" ”
The young man sighed lightly and said in a suppressed voice: "It is the Li Zhen family who married Prime Minister Li Cheng, she has a younger brother named Zhen Lu, this person is a famous and promising rich man in Yu Country, and his beloved daughter wants to ask for medicine, hehe, I introduced this business to you, do you want to thank me?" ”
Before the young man could finish his words, the woman poured cold water on him.
"This business lady doesn't do!"
"Liao Niangzi, what do you mean!" The young man was slightly stunned and asked urgently.
Liao Niangzi ignored it, turned around and walked towards the street, letting the young man mutter several times, and she didn't look back.
In the private room on the second floor of the restaurant facing the street, the wooden window opened a corner, revealing a young face, she stared at the coarse cloth woman with watery eyes, and waited until the woman disappeared around the corner of the street, and the little girl closed the window stupidly.
There were a few plates of delicate and delicious snacks on the table, and two bowls of tea.
Looking along the wood-colored texture, a jade hand rests on the celadon teacup, casually lifting the tea lid.
"Miss, that mother-in-law doesn't seem to agree to do our business, should we go back first?" It was the little girl who was looking at just now who was asking, and there was a look of chagrin between her eyebrows and eyes.
"No hurry, she'll be back." The sound is as sweet as agar wine, refreshing.
"But when she came back, she didn't necessarily agree, and that guy looked stupid." The maid found a reason, and blamed the medicine shop guy.
The girl raised her beautiful face and smiled sweetly, "I will talk to her personally." ”
Liao Niangzi came out of Dafu Restaurant with a packed roast chicken, biting the hot buns in her mouth.
When she was resting at the restaurant just now, she was just in time for the storyteller to tell those interesting things in the city, she sneered and was bored, and passed the time while listening, until someone interjected to lead the topic to the matter of finding thieves in the city, which aroused her slight interest.
After listening to a patchwork story, she settled out and left satisfied.
When he found the pharmacy, before he could step into the threshold, he was stopped by a young girl's voice.
"Mother-in-law, wait a minute!" The little maid shouted softly and ran to her.
Liao Niangzi turned her head and saw that it was a little woman, and suddenly lost her good face, "Who are you, does the old lady know you?" ”
The maid was startled, as if she did not expect that this old woman not only had an ugly face, but also a vulgar manner.
With gravy stains all over your face and glaring at yourself viciously?
The maid pinched her fingers into her palms and forced herself to put on a smiling face, "Mother-in-law, my young lady wants to invite you to tea, can you take a trip to enjoy your face?" ”
Liao Niangzi sneered: "Miss Zhen? ”
"Hmm,...... How do you know? The maid was slightly stunned and wondered.
Liao Niangzi snorted impatiently, waving her hand and urging, "Hurry up and lead the way, there are still many things to do with the old lady." ”
was yelled at by her, and the maid was even more panicked, and hurriedly led her towards the restaurant not far from the roadside.
When Mrs. Liao entered the private room on the second floor, the maid opened the door and retreated, leaving only the young lady to talk to the woman.
New tea had been placed on the table, and the girl smiled and raised her hand to signal the woman to take a seat.
"Mrs. Liao, please take a seat."
"Humph!" Liao Niangzi pursed her lips slightly and sat down with a big grin.
"Liao Niangzi, I don't know what you want to eat, I told the people to do it." The girl still smiled sweetly.
"Your restaurant?" Liao Niangzi asked suddenly.
The girl nodded slightly, which counted as an answer, and then added: "Mrs. Liao just speaks, if you do what I ask, I can afford to pay as much as I want." ”
"Killing people is naturally more rewarded." The woman took the bowl and drank it all, and said coldly.
The girl's delicate face froze, but she was unexpectedly not frightened, and chuckled again, "You really guessed why I was looking for you." ”
"If you want to buy my Yukiji pills, just wait two more months, you are young and ugly, what can't you wait! Although the old lady is lazy and only adjusts ten bottles a month, with your Zhen family's status in Yudu, you will not be unable to grab it. ”
"You hurriedly instructed the pharmacy guy to find me, and asked your maid to find me, but it's just a cover for yourself, you know where I'm coming from, and you know what I'm doing, right?"
The girl frowned slightly and explained, "Although my appearance is not one of the best in Yu, it is not as unbearable as you say." ”
"Verbosity, just say who you want to kill?" Liao Niangzi remembered Ying Zhichu, and she didn't want to urge angrily.
The girl raised her Wubo eyes and said lightly: "Do you know the only son of the Ministry of Works-Li Shengxue?" ”
