Chapter 82: What a Weirdo
Lu Xiyi pursed his mouth: "If you close your eyes for the rest of your life, isn't it death!" ”
Feeling that it was unlucky to say a dead word, Lu Xiyi hurriedly changed the topic: "By the way, what's going on?" ”
What Lu Xiyi said naturally refers to Li Yuanwai.
"Li Yuanwai was put in prison, and he was supposed to be escorted to the criminal department, but I don't know why the county order changed his mind and only locked Li Yuanwai in the county jail." Ah Leng didn't say it, but he actually knew in his heart that Shen Sizhuo, the county order, and Li Yuanwai were all the same dogs, and they would definitely help each other. Last time, because it was a tribute wine, the county order didn't dare to help Shen Sizhuo.
Lu Xiyi didn't want to drive people to a dead end, and put Li Yuanwai in prison, which could be regarded as a lesson for him, and don't do this kind of unconscionable thing in the future.
"What about Wang Liu and her children?"
"The county order awarded Wang Liu's 1,000 taels of silver, and this silver came from Li Yuanwai's family."
Lu Xiyi couldn't help laughing: "Li Yuanwai has an iron rooster, I don't want to end up, I hurt others and end up harming myself, and I lost a thousand taels of silver in vain, I estimate that this is more uncomfortable than asking him to die." ”
"Another day, if you are free, we will go to see Wang Liu together, I promised that as long as she is willing to go to the lobby to testify, I will pay her, I can't be untrustworthy." Ah Leng said.
If there was no Wang Liu, Lu Xiyi would still be in prison at this time: "This is nature!" Don't wait another day, we'll go tomorrow. ”
As he spoke, Lu Xiyi's eyebrows suddenly sank again.
Ah Leng asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Lu Xiyi: "Now that everyone in Liuzhou Cheng knows that we have put leavening agents in the wine, don't they come to buy our wine?" If this matter reaches the emperor, will the emperor blame us and cut off our heads? ”
Ah Leng's face was red, and he hurriedly said: "It's all my fault for this matter, it's me who took it upon myself to put leaven in the wine......"
Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Lu Xiyi rushed and said: "You are also for my good, I don't blame you!" You also drank in court that day, and there was nothing wrong with it, and everyone's eyes were bright. ”
Ah Leng nodded: "I hope so!" ”
The next day, there was still a steady stream of people who came to buy alcohol. Lu Xiyi couldn't help but ask: "I put leaven-promoting agents in the wine, aren't you afraid?" ”
"Afraid of what? If it was really poisonous, we would have died! ”
"Isn't it obvious that Li Yuanwai deliberately killed the family, and it's not that there is a problem with your wine. Boss Lu, what are you worried about! Give me another fifty pounds of daughter red! ”
Lu Xiyi's heart was moved, and tears welled up in his eyes: "Thank you for your trust in me, in order to express my gratitude, those who buy enough 50 catties of wine will get 5 catties, and those who buy 100 catties will get 10 catties!" ”
Hearing this news, more people came to Xiaoyao Wine House to buy wine. Before the unitary time, all the liquor had been sold out.
Lu Xiyi remembered the agreement the night before and rode a horse with Aleng to visit Wang Liu. not only gave her mother and son silver, but also bought them 20 catties of dried meat and 50 catties of rice. Wang Liu is grateful, so naturally there is no need to say it.
The two of them hit their horses back to the Xiaoyao Wine Workshop. Passing by an inn, a man crossed across the street and walked towards the inn.
The horse was frightened and jumped up, Xiao Xiao screamed, and Lu Xiyi almost fell.
"Why don't you look at the dots when you walk!" Lu Xiyi's heart was still pounding.
"Are you alright?" Ah Leng asked with concern.
Lu Xiyi touched his heart: "Except for a strong heartbeat, there is nothing else." ”
The two continued to walk forward, and Ah Leng suddenly reined in the horse: "Xiaoxi, you go back first, I'll do something." ”
Lu Xiyi looked at Ah Leng curiously: "What's the matter?" ”
"Little things." With these words, Aleng rode away.
"What a weirdo!" Lu Xiyi stuck out his tongue and returned to the Xiaoyao Wine Workshop.
"Sister, where's my brother?" As soon as Xiaomeng saw Lu Xiyi, he rushed over happily.
Lu Xiyi stretched out his onion-like fingers and tapped lightly on Xiaomeng's nose: "You, you know that you care about Brother Aleng, and my sister is angry!" ”
Xiaomeng knew that Lu Xiyi was joking: "Where do I only care about my brother, and I also care about your well?" ”
"Is there one?" Lu Xiyi opened one eye and closed one eye, "Why didn't I see it?" ”
Xiaomeng pouted: "That's because my sister is not good at observation." ”
Lu Xiyi touched Xiaomeng's hair: "Okay, okay, my sister is joking with you." Your brother Ah Leng said that there is something to be done and that he will be back in a moment. Have you eaten? ”
Bagatelle? What little thing can Ah Leng have?
"We want to wait until you come back before we eat."
Lu Xiyi touched his stomach: "I'm hungry, don't wait for your brother Leng, let's eat!" ”
Along rode his horse and turned to the inn.
"Yo, isn't this Ah Leng from the Loose Wine Workshop?" The second child of the inn knew Ah Leng and smiled, "What, you also want to live in the hotel?" Was he kicked out by Boss Lu? ”
Although Ah Leng and Lu Xiyi have nothing, in the hearts of the citizens of Liuzhou, they seem to be inseparable husband and wife. Where there is Lu Xiyi, you must be able to see Ah Leng.
The words of the shopkeeper made Ah Leng very embarrassed, scratching his face: "I...... I'm here to find someone. ”
"Looking for someone?" The corners of the shopkeeper's mouth curled up playfully, "Which girl's house are you here to meet?" Okay, Ah Leng, you actually came out to steal the fish behind the back of the boss Lu, tsk! It's strange if I don't tell Boss Lu. ”
Ah Leng couldn't cry or laugh, and just didn't know how to reply to Xiao Er's words, there was a knocking sound on the Hu ladder, and a guest in boots walked to the Hu ladder, his eyes were as sharp as a knife: "He came to me." ”
As soon as the shopkeeper saw this burly guest, he was a little scared, and hurriedly said to Ah Leng: "Please! ”
Ah Leng walked up the ladder and followed the burly man to the room, and the burly man closed the door.
"Meet ......"
Ah Leng faced the window and raised his hand: "No need to be polite!" Is it urging me again? ”
The burly man nodded: "Exactly." So, it's better for you to go back as soon as possible. ”
A trace of pain flashed across Ah Leng's tight and fair face: "Do you have to go back?" ”
The burly man did not know how to answer: "This ......"
Backward, Ah Leng sighed: "That's it, that's it, I'll go back with you." Wait for me tomorrow. ”
"Okay." The burly man's tense face finally stretched a little.
Ah Leng rode back to Xiaoyao Wine, and Lu Xiyi, Xiaomeng, Uncle Zhang and others were sitting around the table eating.
"Brother, you're back!" Xiaomeng put down his chopsticks and ran out to take Ah Leng's hand, "Hurry up and sit down, we'll just start." ”
Ah Leng sat opposite Lu Xiyi, picked up chopsticks, but did not pick up vegetables.
Lu Xiyi saw it in her eyes, and she guessed from Ah Leng's slightly frowning brows and gloomy eyes that he had something on his mind at the moment.
"Where have you been?" Lu Xiyi pretended to ask casually.
Ah Leng's eyes were fixed on Lu Xiyi. The contact these days has given him a certain inexplicable feeling about this woman, and once he leaves her, he will have no joy at all.
The thin and cool lips of the snort, and did not say anything.
Lu Xiyi was even more curious: "Ah Leng, what's wrong with you?" ”
Xiaomeng put vegetables in Ah Leng's bowl: "Brother, eat quickly, it will be cold in a while!" ”
Uncle Zhang handed over a cup and said with a smile: "Ah Leng, do you want to drink two cups?" Two cups and your tongue will be alive! ”
