Chapter 69: A Man Lied

The shopkeeper said, "Why can't you remember clearly?" Xie Jiaorou is Bianjing Lane's favorite place to buy clothes. The family members of high-ranking officials in Bianjing, I'm afraid that few families have such a hobby as her. ”

Xie Nuanyan pondered too.

Besides, Qi Zhaoxiu asked a strange question, the owner of the shop just now obviously said something like this, but he didn't ask. When I arrived at this shopkeeper, I was somehow going to ask.

"How many clothes does she buy at once?" Qi Zhaoxiu asked the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper thought for a while, "Two or three sets at a time, or five or six sets, it is possible." ”

Xie Nuanyan felt that Xie Jiaorou was really rich, and if she bought five or six sets in a store a month, it would be two taels of silver for a set, and this one store would have to pay ten taels of silver, and if she went back and forth to four stores, she would have to get forty taels.

How many people have forty taels enough to live for several years.

Xie Nuanyan didn't have anything special to ask.

Qi Zhaoxiu chased after him, "Xie Jiaorou except for your family, do you know which store you go to more?" ”

The shopkeeper thought for a while and said, "Actually, the third lady still goes to the shop on the edge of Bianjing Lane next to Yanyu Lane the most. I heard that she was a regular visitor to that house, and she ran there twice in three days. In their family, this dress is made in general, but the boss has a sweet mouth and is especially good at coaxing people. I've heard that a lot of little girls like to go there. ”

Qi Zhaoxiu seemed to have gotten the answer he wanted.

After coming out of the store, Xie Nuanyan was a little puzzled, "Why did you hold on to the owner of this store just now?" ”

"This is a businessman, and his peers are enemies. You look at these people coming and going on the surface, behind the scenes, you are fighting with me, and there are no serious relationships. It's easier to get the truth out of the enemy's mouth. ”

"Then why didn't you ask about that store just now?"

"That ugly man, this king doesn't like it." Qi Zhao Xiuyi is righteous.

Xie Nuanyan muttered, "It's good-looking, it's ugly." ”

When we arrived at Smoke and Rain Alley, it suddenly started to rain.

Qi Zhaoxiu took off his clothes and put them on Xie Nuanyan's head, "You wear it, don't get drenched in the rain." ”

Xie Nuanyan tightened his clothes, and his heart warmed.

After walking a long way down the alley, I found a ready-to-wear shop with a very dark façade.

Seeing the façade, Qi Zhaoxiu and Xie Nuanyan glanced at each other.

The façade is shabby, the plaque is dilapidated and low, and it feels like it could fall down at any moment. What's more, the door is empty, and there is no appearance of opening the door to welcome customers.

Xie Nuanyan couldn't help but say, "Xie Jiaorou's eyes, can you look here?" ”

Qi Zhaoxiu said: "Radish greens, who knows." Besides, your sister's character, shouldn't you know? ”

Xie Nuanyan knew that this thing was secretly poking her again. Just said, "I don't remember." Besides, why should I care about her character? I don't want it! I'm busy. ”

Qi Zhaoxiu glanced at her, "You want to say that you have no feelings for the Xie family." ”

"I was brought up by my grandmother, why do I have reason to have feelings for the Xie family?" Xie Nuan's words are righteous.

Qi Zhaoxiu actually knew about it.

The Xie family has always been too much for her. In the past, when I saw the Xie family treating her like this, I couldn't bear it in my heart, but I indulged her for a long time.

I didn't expect this connivance to come to this ......

Qi Zhaoxiu didn't continue to argue with her, pushed open the door with one hand, and called, "Boss? ”

Xie Nuanyan went in behind him.

The light in the store is not good, and the clothes are piled up, so at a glance, it looks like you have entered a very dilapidated house. Fortunately, the clothes look new, but the style is peculiar, and there are all kinds of things.

What's even more interesting is that the clothes in this store don't look like they're of the best color.

When I look at it this way, I always think that this store is a little strange.

The shopkeeper heard someone shouting and walked out from inside yawning, "Who?" ”

Qi Zhaoxiu asked, "You are the boss?" ”

The boss nodded, "This boy, want clothes?" ”

Qi Zhaoxiu said: "What clothes are suitable for me in your store?" ”

The shopkeeper glanced Qi Zhaoxiu up and down, "No." Look at Childe like this, how can he wear the coarse linen clothes I have here on weekdays? Childe, are you entertaining me? ”

Xie Nuanyan listened to the two of them playing Tai Chi, and was anxious.

She directly took Xie Jiaorou's portrait and asked the shopkeeper, "Boss, take a look, have you ever seen this girl?" ”

The shopkeeper took one look and said, "This girl is really interesting." Do you think this girl can like our clothes? ”

Xie Nuanyan said: "Why don't you like it? This is a cousin of mine in the countryside. ”

The shopkeeper said: "It's really interesting, this is the third lady of Xie Mansion, who doesn't know her on our street?" She does come to me every month. But the clothes in my store are cheap, and she buys them for her subordinates. There's no way she's going to buy it herself. ”

Xie Nuanyan was stunned.

Qi Zhaoxiu asked him, "Are you sure she comes once a month?" ”

"Of course. Basically once a month. The shopkeeper said.

Qi Zhaoxiu said: "The shopkeeper continues to be busy, so let's go first." ”

The shopkeeper looked at the two of them funny, waved his hand and said, "I won't send them far, the two of you will go slowly." ”

After coming out, Xie Nuanyan was confused, "Just now the shopkeeper said that Xie Jiaorou often comes here. But the owner of the shop didn't admit it at all. Could it be that one of the two of them is lying? ”

"What's the hurry, isn't there another one over there?" Qi Zhaoxiu said.

Xie Nuanyan nodded and found the last garment shop.

It's a normal garment shop, and it's made of some fine fabrics, which looks very normal, and it's not as shabby as the one just now.

Xie Jiaorou explained her intentions, and the shopkeeper stared at the portrait for a while, and said, "This person, almost once a month, buys a few clothes each time and leaves." Sometimes it doesn't come once a month. She goes to the garment shop on the side of Bianjing Lane, where the rent is expensive, and the clothes are all good fabrics, which is naturally incomparable to those of us small households. ”

It's all the same thing.

Qi Zhaoxiu said: "Do you know that this woman is dead? ”

The shopkeeper was stunned, "How did you die?" ”

"Killed."

When the shopkeeper heard this, he hurriedly said, "You don't think I'm dead, right?" I am just an ordinary poor person, how can I kill the daughter of such a large family? Besides, I haven't seen her before, how could I possibly kill her? It's been a long time since I came to buy clothes. ”

Qi Zhaoxiu said: "Then take out the list of clothes you bought before and ask me to take a look." ”

The shopkeeper hurriedly took out a few pieces of paper from the drawer, turned page by page, and turned to the one where Xie Jiaorou bought clothes before.

"No, this is it. You see, I'm not lying, she used to be almost once a month, and she hadn't been to the shop much. ”

Xie Nuanyan looked at the notebook and thought to himself what if someone made a fake. Besides, this is their bill, and it's not the same as playing if you want to cheat.

Qi Zhaoxiu saw that it was almost over, said hello to the shopkeeper, and left.

After coming out, Xie Nuanyan was confused, "These shopkeepers are really interesting, how can they talk about the same?" There must be someone lying. ”
