Chapter 102: A Frightened Change
"Thank you, Lord Qi, for your trouble." The minions led by him respectfully thanked Qi Qingchu, and then stood beside him, waiting for his master to come over.
The sumptuous food on the table did not make these minions look twice, and their purpose was very clear, that is, to bring Xi Zien back to the mansion.
And Xi Zien, who came back from looking for Li Jicai, saw his own subordinates standing next to him, and subconsciously frowned.
There must be some trivial matter to find him, he is tired of dealing with such and such affairs, you must know that he can be lazy, and if he can sit, he will never stand.
"What are you doing here? Is there anything going on in the house? ”
"Childe, Madame sent us over to ask you to go back, saying that there is some urgent matter at home, you see?"
"What can he be in a hurry? It's all trivial. Xi Zien muttered a few words, and the subordinates were still smiling, as if they hadn't heard them.
"There's still half of the meat left unfinished, so when I'm done with the meat, I'll go with you."
"Childe, it's not that I'm embarrassed for you, it's Madame, Madame means to try to ask you to return to the mansion immediately."
"Yes, I'll go back with you." Xi Zien is also afraid of being annoyed, and he is also afraid of being punished, and at the same time, he is also worried about whether something is really wrong with his mother, and he needs to be called back immediately, although his mother has always been shocked, but there is no absolute in everything.
The originally tense and serious faces of the subordinates suddenly relaxed a lot, and it was a good thing to be willing to go back with them, as for what the problem? This and that has nothing to do with them anymore.
Xi Zien looked at the hot pot that was still boiling, and couldn't help but smash his mouth, the small bowl of beef in his bowl had not yet been eaten, and the unique fresh and fragrant taste permeated the surroundings, making people salivate.
These are all good meats, and Xi Zien can't eat them by himself, so he simply boldly put his small bowl in front of Qi Qingchu, which means that after he leaves, the bowl in his bowl can be eaten by Qi Qingchu.
"That's it, then I'll go first, and you eat slowly." Xi Zien winked at Qi Qingchu and signaled him not to forget the purpose of their trip.
"Boss, next time you come to eat hot pot, Qi Gongzi paid today, do you hear?"
"I heard you!" Li Jicai stood up from the counter, and looked at it from a distance, revealing a hint of joy and excitement in his tone.
Feeling good?
Xi Zien grinned and was relieved. Then he turned and strode out the door. The family behind him hurriedly followed.
For Xi Zien, it's not a bad thing to leave now, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to eat with Luo Lianfang's stinky face.
After Xi Zien left, the atmosphere suddenly cooled down a lot, because no one was chattering, and Qi Qing had never liked to talk when he was eating, Luo Lianfang's face was a little better, it was really good, now there were only two of them left, the two of them, alone.
Luo Lianfang was a little shy and twisted, and secretly looked at Qi Qingchu thinking about whether to say anything close and tempting.
There were a lot of dishes on the table, most of them hadn't moved yet, Qi Qingchu only ate the dishes in front of him, and the small bowl that Xi Zien had just given him.
Luo Lianfang stretched out her hand to prepare to pick up vegetables for Qi Qingchu, and said something considerate by the way.
Just as she was about to speak, Li Jicai suddenly appeared again, holding a bowl of white fungus lotus seed longan soup in her hand, and the sweet aroma of the stew quickly attracted Qi Qingchu's attention.
He looked at it, and there was a slight fluctuation in his eyes, and then he quickly disappeared again.
"Slow down, slow down." Li Jicai's tone was a little embarrassed and a little embarrassed.
I don't know why, she always feels that she has to be shorter and more humble in front of these two people, this is not her intention, maybe she just feels inferior.
After lowering his neck for a long time, he felt a burst of soreness and discomfort, and after putting down the soup, he flew away.
Xi Zien was not there, she actually felt so uncomfortable.
Luo Lianfang glanced at Li Jicai's back with disgust, and then turned around and looked at Qi Qingchu with another face.
"Qingchu, even if you are concerned about state affairs, you still have to be more careful when dealing with civilians, I see that although this foreign food is novel, it can't be eaten too much, understand?"
Luo Lianfang tried her best to make her tone sound as if she was not ordering, but softly persuading.
Qi Qingchu stuffed a peanut into his mouth, and when he heard Luo Lianfang say this, he raised his eyebrows: "Zien likes this shop very much." "It means they'll come back next time.
Luo Lianfang gritted her teeth, Xi Zien, Xi Zien again.
Qi Qingchu was not worried at all about causing any trouble to Xi Zien by saying this, the Luo family would not get along with the Xi family, and Xi Zien had always been that virtue.
Time passes little by little, and no matter how slow the meal is, there is a time when it is finished.
There were two people in total, and they didn't eat much.
Qi Qingchu was slow and methodical, and after eating, he planned to get up and pay the bill, Xi Zien must have taken care of it, and he didn't need to ask more, what Qi Gongzi said just now paid for it, Qi Qingchu didn't hear it.
Luo Lianfang only found out at this time that the original invitation to her to enjoy the flowers and eat was really just a simple flower appreciation and dinner, and there was no other special meaning, there was really nothing.
If anything, it's likely to just bring her over and warn her not to make a small move behind her back and let the store go out of business.
Xi Zien must have known about the things he did secretly, but his relationship with Xi Zien has always been discordant, so Xi Zien found Qi Qingchu as an intermediary.
How much did this Li Jicai cost? Or what means were used to make people like Xi Zien willing to stand up for her, which is really amazing.
As his eyes flickered, his eyes shot like knives towards Li Jicai, who was standing beside him and began to clean up.
"There are no rules, if you want to clean up, you have to wait until we are gone to clean up, right?" I don't know what kind of mentality I had, Luo Lianfang suddenly said such a sentence, her tone was a little heavy, and her words were full of disdain.
Qi Qingchu frowned, but didn't say anything. Li Jicai was stunned by what she said, and then immediately stopped cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, wiped it on his blue cloth apron at a loss, and then took a few steps back like a child who had done something wrong and lowered his head.
"Miss Luo, let's go, it seems that the people in your house are already waiting outside, it should be that you have been out for a long time, and it is time to go back."
Qi Qingchu didn't like people to put up a fight in front of him and reprimand others, since the meal was finished, there was no need to stay here anymore.
Luo Lianfang looked at Qi Qingchu standing with her back to him, looking at it, this was the direction of the door, and the person standing outside the door was indeed her family's family.
Qi Qingchu was right, she had stayed outside for too long, and sometimes it was time to go back.
It came out in the morning recently, and it's already afternoon.
It's just a matter of enjoying the plum blossoms.
"In that case, let's go." Luo Lianfang glanced at Li Jicai meaningfully, and that look seemed to say that you are waiting for this matter to be over.
Li Jicai lowered her head and didn't dare to look at the other party directly, but she could feel that pin-pricked eyes fell on her body, which was very uncomfortable.
Li Jicai felt that her scalp was numb, and the woman she saw today was very different from what she imagined.
Could it be that Qi Qingchu admired such a woman? How slanted do these eyes have to be? is so difficult to get along with, so aggressive, could it be said that Qi Qingchu himself is such a person? Isn't it true that things gather like and people divide into groups?
The most basic politeness, respect for others will not be? Does the speech have to be so ugly?
If, after they go back, this Luo Lianfang still has to be embarrassed to live with fate, then just be embarrassed, she will bear it.
Qi Qingchu and Luo Lianfang stepped out of the door, but just as the people from Luofu were about to welcome their young lady into the sedan chair, an accident suddenly happened.
Out of nowhere, a big wolfdog swooped straight up at his own lady, who was very large and half a person tall when he stood up. With terrifying fangs, gray and black hair, and cold and unruly eyes, outsiders look extremely aggressive.
It had a red rope tied around its neck, but the rope was dragging on the ground, apparently out of human control or somewhere it had been tethered.
But at the moment, the dog's origin was not the most important, but it suddenly pounced on Luo Lianfang.
Luo Lianfang was so frightened that her little face turned white, and she broke out into a scream, then took several steps back, tripped her foot on the threshold, and fell down hard, hitting the floor with the back of her head, making a "bang" sound.
Gradually, blood slowly spilled out of the ground.
And Xiao Erhei was standing on his stomach at this time, and his two forelimbs were stepping on her chest.
His tongue was panting, and saliva fell drop by drop, right on Luo Lianfang's face.
The people next to him were frightened, and the current situation in front of them was beyond the scope of what they could accept.
Their young lady was pounced on by the big wolfdog and bled out.
Qi Qingchu didn't expect such a thing to happen suddenly, he was very calm, but he had no intention of making a move.
After all, the people of the Luo family are next to them, aren't they? He stared at Li Jicai coldly, and Li Jicai's face was difficult to see.
This dog, it's hers.
Qi Qingchu immediately made this judgment, but why was he not led by someone, but was released and ran away? Frowning, things, oops!
After Li Jicai reacted, he immediately rushed over, hugged Xiao Erhei to the side, and then protected it with his whole body.
Li Jicai was frightened, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's over, it's no one else, it's a famous lady in the capital, my God, what should I do?
Li Jicai only felt that his scalp was tingling, what about Li Jiye? Where did Li Jiye go? said okay let him go out to walk the dog, why is it that only Xiao Erhei is back, and he hurt people when he enters the door, what should I do now?!
Li Jicai wanted to die, and the panic in his heart was like a wave surging, and a wave of panic passed over for a while.
When the subordinates of Luofu helped Luo Lianfang up, a person ran away in a hurry and went out to find a doctor.
Right now, they can't leave if they want to, so many people are around.
Qi Qingchu didn't leave, just stood coldly in place, and then thought about what to do next.
The dog inside Suiyuanju hurt someone, this owner must be inextricably linked, if the two Li Jicai sisters and brothers are brought into the official mansion and thoroughly investigated, Qi Qingchu is worried that the movement outside is a little big, after all, it involves the people of the Luo family.
However, if he saved Li Jicai, it would be tantamount to turning against Luo Lianfang.
After so many years, with the help of Luo Lianfang's reasons, Qi Qingchu's relationship with the Luo family has more or less contact and understanding.
It's a pity to overturn it all at once, and things are getting more and more tricky.
Li Jicai trembled with Xiao Erhei in her arms, she wanted to run away with Xiao Erhei, but the store is here, so many people can run away from the monk here, and they can't run away from the temple.
No, no, no, she has to pretend that she doesn't know Xiao Erhei now, just treat it as a wild dog from somewhere, drive it out, drive it out of the store, so that no one can find him, Xiao Erhei knows the way back to the small courtyard, and he will go back by himself.
Thinking about it, Li Jicai let go of the hand that restrained Xiao Erhei, hoping that it would break free, and then ran out of the store.
Unexpectedly, when he raised his head, he unexpectedly saw Qi Qingchu's gaze, which frightened him, and the all-knowing eyes pierced his heart directly, making him feel that there was nowhere to hide. was seen through, Qi Qingchu must have seen it.
His fingers were squeezed nervously, and he let go of his hand, hoping that Xiao Erhei would run out quickly like this, not staying in the field, and not being caught by those people.
They have been steadily going through so many years, and they don't want any accidents to happen, and they can't have any more accidents.
Xiao Erhei is a member of their family, and no matter what, he can't be taken away by anyone.
Today's incident is really an accident, if she can, she is willing to pay money and apologize, she is willing to pay her own and can give to make up for it, but she, she doesn't want Xiao Erhei to be arrested and then killed.
She didn't know about the ancient criminal law, and she hadn't violated it, but she was worried that the offended party was a nobleman, and the government would also give special treatment. I didn't think about it and didn't dare to think about it, I gently pinched Xiao Erhei's buttocks, Xiao Erhei was in pain, and I didn't know why, and then I immediately turned around and ran outside from the store.
The attention of the people of the Luo family is all on their own young lady, where can they take care of the culprit, they just think that their young lady's injury is not too serious.
However, at this time, another person appeared outside the store, Li Jiye came back, and he still shouted in his mouth, "Xiao Erhei, sister, have you seen Xiao Erhei?" ”
