Chapter 124: Momentum
His gaze was fierce, and he quietly approached Xiaohong on the side, and reached out to pull her.
Ye Xiaoying's eyes were quick, and with a snap, she slapped him in the face.
Xiaohong was stunned at first, but then understood, straightened up, raised her neck, and immediately scolded him:
"What do you want to do? You didn't bully Ah Lu enough, do you still want to bully me? Let me tell you, my aunt and grandmother won't let you bully you so much.
Even if my wife goes to the county seat, they have to give her a little thin noodles, let alone someone like you. If you stay here and entangle, you don't know how you will be sent to prison and how you will die! “
In Lijia Village, the men were all working with their heads bored, and almost all of the people left behind were women, and they never thought that looking at the delicate Xiaohong talking was so magnificent.
Du Huai was beaten, he covered his face, and looked at Xiaohong with slippery eyes.
Xiaohong snorted coldly, took out the deed of sale from his sleeve, and pointed to the handprint pressed by Ah Lu below,
"Take a look, the black and white letters are clearly written, and Ah Lu is Madame's maid in the future. If you dare to come to our door again to probe your brain, don't blame us for being unkind to you, hum! ”
She snorted heavily, then turned around and left, this momentum made Ye Xiaoying look at her with admiration.
Du Huai was frustrated and suffered in front of them, and he was afraid that he would not go to Ah Lu for trouble for a while. Ye Xiaoying was relieved for a while.
In the next two days, Du Huai was really rarely seen, maybe he knew that there was no hope and left Lijia Village. The village was as calm as ever, and when Ye Xiaoying was drying her clothes in the yard, it seemed that someone was chatting in the distance.
She put her hand on her forehead and looked out.
The long figure looked like a merchant who had come before, and the peculiar thing was that there was a short man in front of him, could it be that this time he brought a servant?
When Ye Xiaoying finished drying her clothes, the businessman came alone. After the silver and goods were gone, Ye Xiaoying casually asked him about the situation in the Western Regions now.
"There are a lot of merchants there, but because the weather is really bad, these things are all exchanged for their lives."
Ye Xiaoying could imagine the pain of selling in the desert, so she said lightly: "Fortunately, there is a little guy by your side who can help you." ”
"Nope!" He smiled as he straightened his bags, "I'm all alone. Ye Xiaoying was taken aback, and then asked who was the person who was chatting with him just now?
"It was a warm-hearted man, and he said that he was also from your village, and he told me a lot about your village.
It was also that I was blinded by sugar before and didn't realize it, it turned out that you were actually a Chinese medicine village here, and I waited for me to open up the joints, and I will also sell medicine here in the future. “
"Is his name Du Huai?" Ye Xiaoying's heart sank, and her voice became cold.
The merchant seemed unaware and nodded, "Yes, it's him." He kept inviting me to his house for a while, but now I was in a hurry to get back to the city. Okay, I'll come back in a month. ”
I don't know why, this time Ye Xiaoying was uneasy, no wonder Ah Lu would be in Du Huai's dang, the lie came as soon as he opened his mouth, and it was so troublesome that even a well-informed businessman could not tell the difference.
With such a way, how can Ah Lu be able to see through it? This time, dozens of catties of white sugar are worth a lot of money, and Ye Xiaoying repeatedly told him to be careful on the road.
"Don't worry!" The merchant patted his chest and said, "I've been practicing for a few years, and ordinary minions can't help me!" ”
It's just that he looked back, "What about Li Tiezhu?" I'd like to have a drink with him, haha! ”
At the mention of Li Tiezhu, Ye Xiaoying fell silent instantly, and the businessman was also lustful, and said excitedly when he left:
"White sugar sells well, and those dignitaries are vying to buy it, so if you have time, you can prepare more, no matter how much, I want them all!"
Ye Xiaoying nodded, and after he left, she couldn't stop looking around. She was not relieved until he left the village safely.
It turned out that Du Huai did not leave, and when he stayed in the evening, Ye Xiaoying inserted the door bolt and moved a cabinet to cover the door, so he closed the door and went to sleep, and the whole night was safe.
The village was quiet during the day, and the summer cicadas kept chirping hoarsely. Ye Xiaoying sat in the room and couldn't stop napping.
Sleepiness swept over her head, she simply leaned her head on the counter and closed her eyes, there seemed to be movement in the daze, and Ye Xiaoying's feet changed positions.
But at that moment, she felt a soft kick.
With a chuckle in her heart, she secretly opened her eyes a slit, and only then did she hear the slight pull of a drawer, which was the chest where she put her silver and valuables, and was now beside her.
Ye Xiaoying only felt stiff, and her hand clenched the feather duster on the counter. The sound of churning was intermittent, Ye Xiaoying stood up, and looked up to see that the person who came was Du Huai.
He was sneaking around, intently pulling at the drawer.
Ye Xiaoying waved her duster and smacked it, "Ouch, ouch." Du Huai hugged his head and ran away.
Ye Xiaoying trembled with anger, "You scoundrel!" She scolded harshly, and turned back to check.
Fortunately, the lock was not picked by him. No, you have to go to the village chief for this matter. It hasn't happened in a long time since the store opened.
Ye Xiaoying was about to lock the door, when Uncle Wang was limping over, and she hurriedly greeted her.
Uncle Wang rolled down the hillside, and was seriously injured, and bones were already visible in some places. He had no children and no daughters, and he was on crutches, and he came to look for Ye Xiaoying miserably.
Ye Xiaoying hurriedly treated him, and worked hard all afternoon, and by the time he sent him back, it was already late, and Ye Xiaoying was so tired that she collapsed in bed.
Thinking of the bad things during the day, she wanted to get up, but she was too tired to get up at all, so she should go again tomorrow. Just thinking like this, I fell asleep in a daze.
I don't know how long it took, I suddenly heard a creak from the window, Ye Xiaoying woke up suddenly, her hand grabbed it, but it was a soft pillow.
"Who is it?" The window of the door was still shaking.
Ye Xiaoying remembered that she once closed the window tightly, and her heart was pounding. was about to get out of bed, but a low black shadow flashed over, waved his hand and slashed at Ye Xiaoying.
The moonlight outside shone into the house from the window, and Ye Xiaoying could see clearly that it was him again!
Du Huaizheng held a knife that flashed with cold light and slashed over, but fortunately, she dodged in time and slashed on the quilt. Ye Xiaoying's hand climbed the cabinet, and the whole person jumped down.
She dashed down with agility, rushed out the door, and quickly closed the door.
