For a few days, Hung Kee Shop was full of people, although it has always been the largest grocery store in the city, and business has been going back and forth, but it has never been so lively.

It's just that such a seemingly prosperous situation is not profitable, but because the people who have been knocked out by Hong Ji over the years have come to ask for money, so that the door of Hong Ji's shop is surrounded by a sea of people.

This time, it actually hurt the Hong family's vitality for a while.

Because the price of the shopkeeper has been extremely high over the years, he has scraped a lot of oil and water from the people to earn a deep family business, but in just a few days, the silver money earned over the years has been forced to be returned to the people.

Not only that, in order to curry favor with all parties, the money that was dotted up and down was not returned if it went out, and the shopkeeper Hong was still in prison at the moment, and Mrs. Hong dealt with these alone, and was forced to sell many properties to pay off the money of the people in the city.

Hung Kee's grocery store is no longer as prominent as it once was, the largest grocery store on West Street is now reduced to a mere one, and the men and family members have been dismissed, leaving only one or two loyal ones to follow.

A few days later, the shopkeeper Hong easily struggled to get out of prison, but when he returned home, he saw such a scene, and fainted in a hurry, Mrs. Hong invited a doctor to treat him, and spent a bracelet as medical money to pay off the debt.

Therefore, when the shopkeeper Hong woke up and learned all this, he was so angry that he lay on the bed and scolded Li Yingyun's ancestors for the eighteenth generation.

On the other hand, Li Yingyun was not in the mood to see the shopkeeper Hong down, but used the three hundred taels of silver that Peng Yue had "handed over" to him before, and redecorated the shop with Peng Yue.

Li Kee Seafood Shop is booming again.

Because of the confrontation between Li Yingyun and the shopkeeper Hong in the court a few days ago, and the people have seen this Li Yingyun's style, a woman, who dares to quarrel with the county magistrate for the livelihood of the people at a young age, but also because the seafood sold in her shop is cheaper and fresher than the outside, and they are willing to come here to consume.

In this way, although Li Yingyun is weak, he is better than selling, so he also made a small amount of money.

Every day, when Li Yingyun hid behind the counter and fiddled with the abacus to count the daily income, her eyes lit up excitedly, and Peng Yue occasionally came to the shop to see her appearance, and couldn't help but joke again.

Li Yingyun was not willing to let Peng Yue joke, and he was not convinced to quarrel with Peng Yue, so that the little four and five could not help but say enviously, he really envied the shopkeeper and Mr. Peng.

"What do you say?"

Li Yingyun knew that this was not the time to make the relationship between the two public, so he stopped the words of the two.

"Isn't it? Mr. Peng maintains the shopkeeper everywhere, and makes efforts to rebuild the shopkeeper's shop, if it is not for the love of the shopkeeper, how can he do this? ”

Xiao Si had already heard from Xiao Wu that Peng Yue's maintenance of Li Yingyun in court that day, and spoke first.

"Little Wu, are you talking nonsense with a big mouth again?" Li Yingyun looked at Xiao Wu with pity, sharpening his knife.

Xiao Wu hurriedly hid behind Xiao Si: "Shopkeeper, Xiao Wu only truthfully told Xiao Si about the situation in the court that day, but if you combine the situation we have seen these days, anyone with a discerning eye can see it!" ”

"You two! Give me the work! ”

Li Yingyun was very angry.

When the little four and five heard this, they hurriedly slipped to the back to clean up.

"Is it really that obvious to the two of us?" Seeing that the two were gone, Li Yingyun sighed.

"Anyway, what they said is the truth, and the big deal reaches the ears of my aunt, let's admit it."

"No! It's not time yet! ”

Li Yingyun flatly refused.

Peng Yue saw that she really didn't want to make it public too early, and it was not easy to force her, so he only took her hand and said lightly: "A-Ying said that she didn't want to make it public at this moment, then Peng Yue will defend it to the end, and when her aunt asked, she said it was just a rumor." ”

Hearing this, Li Yingyun also knew that he was negligent Peng Yue's thoughts, thinking of his love and patience for himself in his past and present lives, he felt that he was too stubborn, so he clenched Peng Yue's hand with his backhand.

"Ah Yue, I know that I am selfish and wronged you, but now, it is really not the time to disclose our relationship, you have seen the situation of my family, and your identity is also very special, if you tell your mother at this time, I am afraid that my mother will not accept it for a while."

"I know."

Peng Yue hooked his lips and smiled, looking at Li Yingyun's eyes full of tenderness.

"It's not too early, the store will be handed over to the little four and five, I'll take you home first, I'm afraid my aunt will punish you if it's late."

"Okay."

Li Yingyun laughed, her lips opened lightly, and her eyes were bright.

Peng Yue was stunned and was pulled out of the shop by Li Yingyun.

And the sweet interaction between the two has already been secretly seen by Xiao Si Xiaowu.

After the two left, Xiao Si and Xiao Wu came out from behind, with gossip expressions on their faces.

"Sure enough, it's just that there's no public relationship." Xiao Si nodded, extremely satisfied with his reasoning.

"Mr. Peng, the shopkeeper, must have a reason to do this, since the shopkeeper wants to hide it, let's just pretend not to know, and don't say it again. You heard what the shopkeeper said, if the relationship is open at this moment, I'm afraid the old woman will not agree! ”

Xiao Wu patted Xiao Si's shoulder and instructed.

"It's nature, how can I know? But we can both see their relationship at a glance, so wouldn't it be easier for the old woman? ”

"You don't understand this, the shopkeeper Xu thought that the two of us were in one place, and it was not common for them to be in one place, so he didn't hide it much, and when he returned home, he was naturally careful everywhere."

"Makes sense."

Xiao Si nodded, and after that, he didn't say anything again, and cleaned up the shop with Xiao Wu, and hurried back to their respective homes.

……

At night, a middle-aged man with a round figure sneaked into the mansion of the county magistrate, and this person was the shopkeeper Hong.

The shopkeeper of Na Hong has been raised at home for a while, and his body has improved a lot, but the voice at home has plummeted, and he has been divided by the people with his savings for many years, so he can't swallow Li Yingyun's breath, so he took advantage of the night to find the county official.

"My lord! Now that my small family is in such a big disaster, then Li Yingyun instigated the mob to seize my family property, and challenged the majesty of adults in the court. ”

As soon as he saw the county order, the shopkeeper Hong fell to the ground.

"Shopkeeper Hong, please get up, then Li Yingyun's revenge, this official will revenge."

The county magistrate took a leisurely sip of tea.

"Your lord has the intention of revenge, but what plan do you have?"

"Not at the moment, the case has just been tried, it is the moment when Li Yingyun is in the limelight, and everyone in the city is looking for her, if the official picks her thorn at this moment, it will be asking for trouble."

The county magistrate finally glanced at the shopkeeper Hong and raised his tail.

"The county magistrate's words are wrong, that Li Yingyun is a yellow-haired little girl, and she was able to get out all because of Peng Yue's help behind her back, and now the little one wants to take advantage of this opportunity to suppress the momentum of the two of them!"

As soon as the shopkeeper Na Hong mentioned Li Yingyun and Peng Yue, he gritted his teeth.

When the words fell, he didn't forget to stir up the anger of the county order: "I also share the worries of the adults by the way, so Li Yingyun sold the price of the object so low, isn't it just to pay less taxes?" In this way, there will be a lot less filial piety to adults......"

"Shopkeeper Hong is right, but I don't know that Shopkeeper Hong wants to suppress the two of them at this moment, but is there any clever plan?"

The county magistrate quietly sipped the fragrant tea in the small cup.

"This ...... The small ones have a plan, but they still need the support of adults. Shopkeeper Hong rolled his eyes and bent his waist to the ground.

"Tell me about it."

"Small plan ......"

Shopkeeper Hong lowered his voice, took two steps forward, and smiled sadly.

The county magistrate knew this, and also laughed: "Interesting, Shopkeeper Hong is really thoughtful!" ”

"Then, this matter will be handed over to the small one to do, and when the small one turns over in the future, he will show filial piety to the adult."

"Okay, shopkeeper Hong, this official is waiting for your good news."

The conspiracy between the two ended, and Shopkeeper Hong left the county mansion with duck steps.

After the fat figure of the shopkeeper Hong walked away, the county official's concubine flashed into the house in cool clothes.

"My lord really wants to deal with Li Yingyun with Shopkeeper Hong?"

The concubine had already come to the door, but she didn't come in because she heard someone in the room, but she heard everything the two said in the room.

Therefore, at this moment, he put his ear to the chest of the county commander and asked in a coquettish voice.

"This person is simple-minded, full of only knowing to seek revenge on Li Yingyun, no wonder he took people over to smash it as soon as he saw that he had opened a shop, if the official cooperated with this person, he wasted time and did not say it, once the matter was revealed, the official's career would be difficult to protect."

"Besides, Li Yingyun has the support of Lord Zhizhou behind him, if that girl goes to join me, let alone this black yarn, I am afraid that my life will be difficult to protect."

The county commander snorted coldly, and when he talked about Mrs. Zhizhou, he still had palpitations.

"That'...... What do adults think? ”

The concubine smiled coquettishly, looking at the county order from bottom to top with her eyes like water, and her thin fingers circled the county order's chest.

"How? Since he let him compete with Li Yingyun and the snipe clam , the official will reap the benefits of the fisherman. ”

"If Hong Baofang succeeds, the official will remove Li Yingyun as a thorn in his side if his hands are not stained with blood, but if that stupid thing is revealed, the official can also clear up the relationship in time."

"What a good way to do it, my lord!"

When the concubine heard this, she was even more tender, and praised in a charming voice.

"Concubine, you are really getting stronger and stronger, and the official likes your fox appearance!"

When the words fell, the county magistrate couldn't wait, grabbed the little concubine's slippery little hand, pressed her under her and rolled over......

Following.

Peng Yue got up early to practice swords in the courtyard as usual, but because he was taught by Li Yingyun last time that he couldn't cut the branches and leaves again, he had to restrain himself, but he was never happy.

Fortunately, in these days, Peng Yue went to sea for Li Yingyun to fish, which made him have a place to go.

After getting along for a long time, the fishermen in Lijia Village knew that Peng Yue was not only hard-working and capable, but also a talented man who read poetry and books, and was extremely bored on the way to sea, so they asked Peng Yue to tell some stories and history.

Peng Yue saw that everyone was so studious, so he taught some simple truths on the way to sea and back to Hong Kong, which greatly increased the knowledge of the fishermen, and in this way, his reputation in the village was even better.
