Chapter 8 There is another person

Shura Field.

I whispered in my heart, and then grabbed the waist card back in my hand - although this Li Shen is not very tall and strong, it is easy to snatch something from my hand.

Li Shen's eyes were vigilant, which I expected, but at this time I had to show momentum: "How did it get to us, Shopkeeper Li doesn't know?" That's right, I naturally don't remember being drunk in the Qinglou, but I don't know if I remember what I did with my friend? ”

When Li Shen heard the words "Qinglou" and "good", he suddenly became excited, and his voice was full of anger: "What nonsense!" What is the green house and what is good? Although Li doesn't say what a gentleman is a gentleman, he is not a person who lingers in Fireworks Willow Lane, and Li already has a sweetheart and is married, and he will marry in a month, how can he find a good match in the Qinglou? What is your intention to slander Li's reputation so much! ”

"Marriage?" Achu lost his voice.

"Exactly." Li Shen replied without hesitation, and reached out to the table to point, "What I'm polishing is my fiancΓ©e's head jewelry." ”

"Then do you usually like poetry and songs?" I asked.

He shook his head again and again: "I'm a craftsman, where can I understand this." ”

He answered quickly and without hesitation, which really didn't look like a lie. Ah Chu and I glanced at each other, and some of my previous speculations were confirmed, but I soon found more doubts.

I bowed to him for a moment: "Shopkeeper Li is angry, it is Bingran who is offended, but he has to do this in a hurry." I believe your words. Seeing that his face softened slightly, I continued:

"It seems that the jade is the jade of the shopkeeper Li, but the person is someone else. But I think this person may have crossed paths with Shopkeeper Li, and we have made up our minds to find this person, and we need to ask Shopkeeper Li for help. ”

Li Shen saw that his suspicions were lifted, and he spoke confidently: "You two are too arrogant, you first came up and slandered me indiscriminately, and now you want me to help you find someone, I want to ask why?" ”

My face did not change: "I was arrogant before to know if you are innocent, and I asked you to help because there is only one Li Zhenping in this Shuangqi Town, and he personally admitted that this waist card is owned by him!" ”

"The waist card is the only clue we can find someone, so even if you are not the person involved, you will never be completely disconnected."

Li Shen realized this, and his previous aggressive posture was also a little weaker, and Achu immediately took advantage of the victory to chase after him: "Until now, we won't hide it from the shopkeeper - we are indeed helping a Qinglou woman find her disappeared lover, and it is common for guests to come and go in the land of fireworks to make a scene, and it shouldn't be too serious." But when the lover heard that she had her own flesh and blood, the front foot kept saying that he wanted to redeem her, but the back foot gave her the medicine that could kill her and the child at the same time, and tricked her into drinking it! Now that this person is still missing, do you know whether he will abandon the chaos from the beginning to the end, or will he abscond in fear of sin? ”

"Moreover, this "lover" who has not seen a person, also left the jade waist card of the shopkeeper Li at the woman's place" I added, and chuckled: "How did this waist card get to him now, I don't know." And whether he fell unintentionally or intentionally, I dare not assert. ”

Li Shen was really shocked, and I went further: "The two of us went one step late that day, and it was a tragedy of one corpse and two lives." If this man dislikes her identity as a fireworks woman and doesn't want this child, he may be able to understand it, but drugged and deceived is equivalent to murder, leaving the jade pendant, and he wants to blame others, both of which are serious crimes, and he must be punished! ”

Li Shen heard the cause and effect of this, and suddenly hugged his fist at us: "I didn't expect that the two girls, as women, were a little chivalrous. Such a man who is inferior to a beast, if he is allowed to get away with it, he will be sorry for Li's conscience, and since Li has been involved in this matter, he also has to prove his innocence, so please ask the two of you to lead the way to Shu Wu's house, and let me confront the woman face to face.

This Li Shen is indeed a temperamental person, seeing that the matter is big, he can't care about doing work, so he and the guy in the store talked about the reason that "you have to discuss with the customer in detail" and followed us out of the store. Achu and I walked out of the store under the gaze of the guy "Wow, big customer", and I only felt embarrassed.

Back at Shu Wu's house, Shu Wuniang saw that Ah Chu and I really brought Li Shen here, and she was overjoyed, and greeted her with a warm face to "receive distinguished guests", I really didn't want to listen to the two businessmen pretending to play Tai Chi, and went upstairs under the pretext of Qiulan's follow-up, Ah Chu was gossipy, and quietly watched with interest on the side.

Qiulan's situation is not bad, although the blow was big before, after all, she has also experienced in Fengyue Field, but she will not collapse. When I told her that the owner of the waist card had been found and wanted her to recognize it, she was very calm, but her slightly trembling voice revealed that she was not at peace.

"See you then." She said.

"Okay, I'll ask him to come up." I'll reply to her.

As soon as I walked to the staircase, I saw Shu Wuniang and A Chu also coming upstairs, followed by Shopkeeper Li.

I said, "Miss Qiulan is inside, the shopkeeper please, whatever you want, it's just ...... Please also be considerate that she is a person who has just recovered from a serious illness. ”

Li Shen nodded, and Shu Wuniang led him in. Ah Chu was a little anxious, and stepped over to me in three steps and two steps, and shared with me the gossip he had just heard downstairs:

"Shu Wuniang deliberately used the style of receiving benefactors to receive the shopkeeper Li at the beginning, and I think he is uncomfortable."

"It's really tiring to listen to them, and it takes a few bends in a sentence, and this shopkeeper Li doesn't look like the same person when he plays jewelry and socializes."

"Oh, and," Ah Chu lowered his voice, "The one Li Shen is going to marry in a month is the fourth daughter of the Meng family. ”

My heart moved: the crooked blow was right.

The result of Li Shen's meeting with Qiu Lan was not unexpected, there was indeed someone else who wanted to kill Qiu Lan and the child, and when he was sent away, Shu Wuniang kept apologizing.

After Li Shen left, Shu Wuniang invited us to the teahouse to drink tea, and chose the quietest and most remote private room in Yaming Xuan - this is also Shu Wuniang's exclusive private room.

"Ordinary people don't want to use the private room where I, a prostitute, sits, but Boss Xia of the teahouse thinks that I am his frequent customer." Shu Wuniang's smile had a hint of mockery.

There is something in this statement, but compared to Qiulan's matter, it is not easy for us to delve into the secrets about Shu Wuniang, and she brought us here for a new clue after the meeting between Shopkeeper Li and Qiulan.

"People don't match, this is all known, but I asked Li Shen carefully how his waist card was lost, he was not sure when he lost it, but it was not simply stolen by thieves, but it was dropped and fake." Shu Wuniang took a sip of Longjing tea, and continued:

"But the strange thing is that when I asked him when he found out about the bag drop, and where was the fake waist card that was dropped, he was vague and only said that he lost it in a fit of anger."

"I feel different, but I can't talk anymore, he speaks as well as he does business."

Achu swallowed the mulberry cake in his mouth: "This cake is delicious." ”

I took a bite of the small puff pastry roll and frowned: "The puff pastry roll is not good, it seems that the cold ones are taken out and sold, and the puff pastry is soft." ”

Shu Wuniang: "......"

I looked at her and said, "It's tiring to go around the bend, it's better to go straight and be comfortable." You want to find a breakthrough from Li Shen's mouth, I know, but you can't get his words, can we get out? What's more, we probably offended him this time. ”

Achu also said: "Actually, our two village girls in the countryside don't care about these things, but it's not like they won't come to the town for the rest of their lives, who knows when the road will be narrow......

Shu Wuniang raised her forehead and said, "What do those two girls mean?" ”

Me: "It might work if I went to him and bought two pieces of jewelry in earnest, but I couldn't afford a single piece of his store." ”

Achu echoed: "Me too. ”

Shu Wuniang: "...... I'll pay for this jewelry, and I'll give you an extra tael of silver to drink tea. As he spoke, he took out the money and put it on the table.

I smiled and divided the silver with Achu, and moved the dim sum plate to Shu Wuniang: "Boss Shu tasted this crisp roll, it was delicious." ”

Shu Wuniang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "Ten years ago, I was also such a money obsession." ”

I smiled and replied to her: "There is a way to take it." ”
