Chapter 174: Pity
The shopkeeper was surprised, he originally thought that Xiaozhu was a poor girl with no power and no power, otherwise she would not have been reduced to the point of performing arts. didn't expect her to know a big man like Ouyang Shu. Since he knew Ouyang Shu, why did he have to dodge and suffer humiliation?
Could it be that this official is also one of the many powerful people vying for the Xiao family?
The shopkeeper's eyes changed a little when he looked at Ouyang Shu. If the scar is a cicada and the Liao people are praying mantises, this official is likely to be a yellow finch, which is much more dangerous than the previous ones.
The shopkeeper was about to speak, but as soon as his mouth opened, there was an unbearable sharp pain, and he quickly closed his mouth again. This was not entirely because of the pain, but also because of the force of the servant of the great official in front of him. Since he was able to force away those Liao people with the strength of one person, if he slapped him, it would naturally be much more uncomfortable than being slapped by the Liao envoy. His mouth was hard enough, and he didn't want to be looted again.
The shopkeeper hurriedly smiled unnaturally and retreated.
At this time, Xiaozhu came over belatedly and saluted: See
Ouyang Shu hurriedly stretched out his hand, helped him, and said, "Hello Xiao, everyone!"
Xiaozhu can also be regarded as a delicate person, as soon as he heard Ouyang Shu stop him from continuing, he knew that Ouyang Shu was unwilling to reveal his identity. At that moment, she hurriedly smiled and said: I haven't seen you for a long time, the demeanor of the big officials is the same as before, congratulations!
The shopkeeper looked at it inexplicably. He never imagined that the wolf and the lamb could get along so harmoniously. He peeked at Xiaozhu's expression and was sure that her smile was not perfunctory, but truly from the heart. This surprised him.
Ouyang Shu smiled and said, "Xiao, everyone is talking more and more. There is a sentence, if I ask, I don't know if everyone will mind!
A trace of bitterness flashed in Xiaozhu's eyes, and she said lightly: Does the official want to ask, why did the slave family fall to such a point?
Ouyang Shu neither nodded nor shook his head, but said directly: I want to hear it!
Xiaozhu's wonderful eyes flowed like flowing water from the people in the house, and then said: The slave family also lives in the city now, and there are many Taibao people along the way, can the officials give the slave family a ride?
Ouyang Shu immediately understood what Xiaozhu meant, she seemed to have something unspeakable, and she didn't want to be discovered, so she wanted to take a step to speak.
The shopkeeper over there, and a few juniors, heard that Xiao and everyone actually took the initiative to invite a man to send them off, and their eyes were about to fall out. The idea of the shopkeeper had long been thrown to Java. At this time, he didn't say anything else to Ouyang Shu except for the word "bow".
Ouyang Shu said with a smile: Since everyone Xiao can be trusted, and it happens to be a stopper, I am willing to be a flower messenger!
Xiaozhu turned around, nodded to the shopkeeper to say goodbye, and turned around and went slowly. Ouyang Shu and Liu Cong were half a step behind and walked behind.
At this time, it was close to dinner time, and Xiaozhu and Ouyang Shu had just gone out when a guest passed by them and entered the restaurant.
Immediately, a junior second greeted him: Guest officer, you are here, it is unfortunate that you came today, Xiao everyone has just left on the front foot, and you have arrived on the back foot. Even if he didn't come specifically to listen to the music, if he could listen to Xiao everyone's music and eat wine after tea and dinner, it would be much more enjoyable, right?
The guest looked sorry, shook his head and said: "That's right, I've been coming early to listen to Xiao's fairy music these days, but I came a little late today, so I didn't catch up." Hey, I'm afraid that from tomorrow onwards, it will be impossible to hear the heavenly voice of everyone Xiao again!
Xiao Er exclaimed: Why do you say this, the small shop will still invite everyone Xiao tomorrow.
The guest shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You are naturally willing to invite, but she will not be willing to come." The person who followed the merry Tanhua Li Xianzun away, can he still escape the clutches of his old man?
The shopkeeper was so swollen that he could not see anyone because of the huge palm print on his face, and when he saw the guest come in, he was ready to find a place to take refuge. But just as he was about to step on the stairs to the second floor, he suddenly heard the guest's words, and he couldn't care about it anymore, so he hurriedly turned around, ran to the guest, and asked with difficulty: What kind of romantic flowers?
After saying these words, he felt a sharp pain on his face again, and quickly covered his mouth with his hand.
When the guest saw the image of the shopkeeper, he was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that this was a private matter after all, and it was not a glorious thing, so it was naturally inconvenient to ask. He hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't you know the shopkeeper?" It's the person who went out with Xiao and everyone just now!
The little two were dumbfounded: Did the guest officer say that the person just now was Li Xianzun of our county?
As soon as the guest saw that the shopkeeper and Xiao Er didn't recognize Ouyang Shu, he pretended to look at them with disdain, and said mockingly: "But isn't it? Last time I had something at home, there was a lawsuit, and it was a case that Li Xianzun personally decided, and it wasn't a long time, how could I admit him wrong!"
Xiao Er and the shopkeeper immediately looked at each other. The little second muttered in his mouth: According to what the guest officer said, everyone Xiao may really be gone forever!
The guest glanced at the two of them and said, "What nonsense!" What kind of person is that romantic Tanhua, even the little lady of the dignified Fan family can be lured by him and willingly elope with him, not to mention others. Look at the current situation of the Xiao family, they are in the middle of falling out, and they are naturally a little more fragile than usual. At this time, even ordinary people, as long as they have the courage, they may not be able to hold the beauty. And that Li Xianzun has clever means and rich experience, just a little trick, and naturally can make the beauty return to his heart. What's so strange about that?
The little two gasped: Today, Li Xianzun's various behaviors have been in such a suburban place in our restaurant, how can so many nobles come today, it turns out that the drunkard's intention is not to drink!
The guest smiled and said, "This little brother, you can see this, you can be considered smart enough." Your small restaurant has a bad reputation, and although the food and wine are not bad, how can it be compared with those big restaurants in the city? Why do people come so far to eat in your restaurant?
The shopkeeper said no more, sighed, and turned upstairs.

Ouyang Shu and Xiaozhu walked out of a short distance together, and Ouyang Shu spoke: Xiaozhu is like a lady
Xiaozhu's footsteps slowed down, and while slowly continuing to pace forward, he said: The county respecter still don't call me anything like a lady, just call the slave family Xiaozhu.
Ouyang Shu sighed, he could understand Xiaozhu's mood very well. The person she married in her previous marriage turned out to be an inhumane eunuch, although after marrying, it can be regarded as fine clothes and food, but she is still afraid to mention this matter in her heart. Besides, it was such a husband who was still dead, which was an unbearable past for her.
I remember that before Mrs. Hao left, she went to my house to say goodbye. And she also promised me personally that before leaving, she would definitely settle the people in the house properly. Could it be that she
Xiaozhu shook his head with a wry smile and said, "The county lord has misunderstood the eldest sister." In fact, before the eldest sister left, she did take out all the family assets and subdivide them, and she and Xiaoju did not take more than any of us. It's just that, as a weak woman who is helpless, if she wants to keep the multi-asset axe, it is no less difficult than making so much money!
Ouyang Shu paused for a moment, and said with a straight face: "Do you mean that you have encountered robbers? Then why don't you sue the official? As far as I know, my Yamen in Kaifeng County will not accept your money!"
Xiaozhu shook his head and said: What kind of official is the county honor, after what happened last time, the slave family knows it. It's just that a weak woman in a slave family can fight a lawsuit. If the government has not been able to track down the thief, how will the slave family make a living? Even if the thief is caught, the news of the slave family's wealth spreads, not to mention that the money will be saved, even if it is his life, he may not be able to save it! The slave family cannot ask the government to send people to protect me all the time from day to night!
Ouyang Shu was dumbfounded. Xiaozhu's words made him feel very uncomfortable, but he didn't know where the discomfort was, as if there was a feeling, like a fish in his throat, but he couldn't say what it felt like.
Immediately, Ouyang Shu asked again: "Then Xiaozhu, where do you live now?" There is one thing, I don't quite understand, since you are singing in that restaurant, there will be people who will come to force you, why don't those people go to your residence and arrest you?
A trace of unspeakable bitterness flashed in Xiaozhu's eyes: almost all the silver money in the slave family's hands was robbed, but fortunately, there was still a little left. The slave family rented a small house near the yamen of Kaifeng County. Because the county government has patrols passing by at night, and the slave family has been sealing all the doors and windows very tightly, the strong man cannot enter. The slave family now always gets up at sunrise in the morning, returns early in the evening, and immediately closes their house as soon as they return to the house.
Ouyang Shu felt pity when he heard it, and there was still such a woman living under the bright future. She, Bao'er's family, and Lu Yunrou formed the trapped crowd in the prosperous city of Bianjing. As a local parent, how could Ouyang Shu not have a kinship.
Of course, it is undeniable that the woman in front of her is also very beautiful, which also makes Ouyang Shu feel even more pity to a large extent.
