Chapter 157: Stinging Eyes
The little guy thought that the man would do something, but he just looked up at the back door of the Bai Mansion and left......
Three years have passed, and the little guy has long forgotten about it.
Yesterday, under Mo Yan's untraceable compliment, coupled with some drunkenness, when he bragged about himself, he suddenly remembered this and said it casually.
When Xie Jinlan's words fell, Ruan Yezhen couldn't wait to ask: "What are the characteristics of that man?" ”
Xie Jinlan shook his head lightly and said, "That person has his back to the little guy and is wearing a hat, except for knowing that he is slender, there is no other information. ”
Ruan Yezhen frowned and pondered, and after a moment, she said uncertainly: "You say, is it possible that person is Bai Siyuan?" ”
Xie Jinlan looked stunned and said, "I don't know yet." ”
Without a clue, Ruan Yezhen turned to another matter: "Then Jiang Zhutou and Bai Siyuan, or the Bai family, can they have anything to do with it?" ”
Xie Jinlan said: "The two families are far apart, and the Jiang family and the Bai family have no friendship. I have never heard of any intersection between Jiang Zhutou and Bai Siyuan. ”
After a pause, he continued: "But these are only superficial results, as for whether they have any unknown intersections in secret, we still need to investigate carefully." ”
Ruan Yezhen was curious: "How do you plan to investigate?" ”
As the so-called 'strong dragon does not suppress the head snake', only Xie Jinlan and Mo Yan's master and servant, under Jiang Zhutou's deliberate concealment, want to find out something, I'm afraid it is not easy.
Xie Jinlan understood Ruan Yezhen's worries, and said with a smile: "Since it happened in Shuanggui County, it is naturally necessary to hand it over to the parents and officials here. ”
Ruan Yezhen instantly guessed his thoughts, and couldn't help but sympathize with Lu Xianling for a moment in her heart. But she still has concerns:
"Jiang Zhutou is the right-hand man of Lu County Order, in case Lu County Commander wants to protect him, not only will the bamboo basket be empty, but it will even arouse Jiang Zhutou's vigilance. ...... then"
Xie Jinlan shook his head gently, and his words were very determined:
"Don't worry, through the information of Mo Yan's previous investigation, coupled with the contact these days, I can still trust Lu County's person.
Although he is a little greedy for money, he knows how to control it. Know what money can be greedy and what money must not be collected. Although Jiang Zhutou is his right-hand man, in his heart, he is not worth an innocent life. ”
Ruan Yezhen nodded as if she didn't understand.
Although she didn't know where Xie Jinlan saw this, she trusted his judgment.
Xie Jinlan's eyes rolled, not knowing what he was thinking. After a while, he got up and pushed the door out, and then pushed open the room next to Mo Yan.
Hearing the sound, Mo Yan was startled at first, but after seeing the slender figure at the door, he patted his heart with palpitations and said, "Young master, why didn't you knock on the door before you pushed it?" It scared Mo Yan. ”
Xie Jinlan raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "I didn't deliberately light my steps, didn't you hear my footsteps?" What are you thinking about so fascinating? ”
Mo Yan opened his mouth, but he didn't spit out half a word.
Xie Jinlan glanced at him deeply, but didn't ask, and said, "Follow me to Yanxi Street first." ”
Mo Yan should claim that it is, but before the big stone in his heart landed, he heard Xie Jinlan say: "As for what you just thought, I'll talk about it after I come back." ”
Mo Yan suddenly cried with a sad face:
How good is that? The young master is very shrewd, if he lies, the young master can definitely see it. But to be honest...... After returning to Beijing, the old lady is afraid that she will not give him good fruits to eat......
Along the way, Mo Yan's face was full of sorrow, which provoked Ruan Yezhen's eyes to always subconsciously fall on him.
Except for the newcomer to Shuanggui County, in order to persuade Xie Jinlan to leave quickly, Mo Yan always looks like a smile on weekdays, which is amazing.
It's just that......
When she arrived at Yanxi Street, Ruan Yezhen could be regarded as seeing something.
Sorrow may be real, but judging from the eyes he frequently looked at Xie Jinlan, I am afraid that it is deliberately exaggerated, so that Xie Jinlan will no longer worry about this matter.
Moving his gaze to Xie Jinlan's body, Ruan Yezhen scolded in her heart: This person is very cautious, and the purpose of Mo Yan is afraid that it will be difficult to achieve.
Ruan Yezhen originally thought that Xie Jinlan was looking for Feng Ange, but after seeing him turn around, he stopped in front of Aunt Meng's stall.
Since that day was exposed the trick of missing catties and two pounds, Aunt Meng's stall has been out of business for a long time, and today I am full of joy when I see a handsome son:
"This boy wants to buy pork? Then you've come to the right place, our Meng family's pork is this! ”
As he spoke, he gave Xie Jinlan a thumbs up.
At first glance, this person is from a rich and noble family, and he will definitely not buy vegetables. Although I don't know why such a person would come to her stall, I don't care about him! It is a fool to have a fat sheep sent to the door and not slaughtered!
Xie Jinlan didn't seem to see the greed that flashed in Aunt Meng's eyes, smiled gently, and said, "What do you call Auntie?" ”
Aunt Meng said: "My husband's surname is Meng, and the neighbors call me Aunt Meng." ”
Xie Jinlan shouted like a stream: "Aunt Meng." ”
Aunt Meng smiled brightly, "Hey", and then said, "How much pork does the son want to buy?" Seeing that you are so handsome, the eldest lady will give you a cheaper. ”
Xie Jinlan shook his head lightly and said, "Aunt Meng, I don't buy pork." ”
When Aunt Meng heard this, the smile on her face suddenly disappeared, and she said coldly: "Why don't you come to me if you don't buy pork?" ”
Xie Jinlan's face remained unchanged: "I have something I want to ask my aunt about." ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Mo Yan.
Mo Yan took a step forward, took out an ingot of ten taels of silver from his bosom and put it on the stall, and then returned to its original place.
Aunt Meng just glanced at it casually, but after seeing what was resting on the stall, her eyes suddenly couldn't take her eyes off.
As if he was afraid that Xie Jinlan would regret it, he grabbed the silver and put it in his mouth and bit it hard, and after confirming that it was true, he quickly tightened his arms and smiled brighter than before:
"This son wants to know something, but if the eldest lady knows, she will definitely tell you!"
At this time, a yin and yang strange voice came from the side:
"Don't let this son be deceived by her, now everyone in our area knows her true colors. In order to get some money, she even cheated her neighbors for many years, let alone an irrelevant stranger like Childe. ”
This person is none other than Widow Wen who had an argument with Aunt Meng a few days ago.
That day, she was indeed frightened by Aunt Meng's fierce appearance. When she saw Xie Jinlan today, she didn't want to pay attention to it. But the ingot of silver stabbed her eyes severely.
That's a whole ten taels of silver!
How many years does she have to sell fruit to make so much money!
Why can Aunt Meng get this ingot of silver so easily!
As soon as her heart was unbalanced, Widow Wen couldn't help but make a sound.
