Chapter Fifty-Four: Mistakes Make Things

In the end, he is a person who has lived for most of his life, and in this aspect of dealing with people, Ah Leng really has to study hard.

He just silently followed behind the old woman and the rich businessman in his childhood, watching the two of them chat.

It's not that he can't interject, it's just that the purpose of his coming here today has been achieved, and he doesn't need to bother with these two people.

After a while, they walked to the front hall, and several people found a place to sit down.

The merchant picked up a cup of tea and blew lightly, then took a shallow sip.

Only then did he finally speak: "That's right, auntie." I saw all your childhood plums just now. ”

"If you put this green plum in the market, you will definitely be able to sell it for a good price, but you can't make much money with me, I will give you a tael of silver at most!"

When the old woman heard this, she was so frightened that the teacup in her hand fell to the ground.

"What? How is this possible? My green plum is from my own tree, how can it be only worth this price, you are taking a good look. ”

The merchant smiled.

"I knew you wouldn't believe it, go! I'll take you to see those green plums in my storeroom! ”

As he said this, he suddenly noticed Ah Leng standing behind the old woman.

He looked up and down and praised: "This little brother is magnificent, and he is a talent." I don't know if Childe is ......"

Ah Leng was about to answer, but the old woman suddenly interrupted him.

"Master, you praise falsely, this is my godson, he is not afraid that I will be tired of coming alone, so he has to follow me!"

"By the way, didn't you just say that you were going to take the two of us to see your fine green plums? Let's go over and take a look! ”

Ah Leng was embarrassed to say anything about her when he saw that the old woman was so anxious, but he just stood silently beside her.

So at the urging of the old woman, they arrived at the storehouse full of green plums in the merchant's mouth in a short time.

This warehouse is not big or small, and it is probably only the size of the front hall of the Xiaoyao Wine Workshop.

The wooden basin of the woman's bath was neatly arranged in front of them.

As far as the eye can see, there are green plums everywhere.

"You don't have to be restrained, you can go in and take a closer look at how this green plum is!"

I don't know if I don't see it, Ah Leng finally understands why the old woman's green plum can't be sold at a good price from him.

Each of his green plums here is very round and full, as if they are precious green agate, and people who look at them are salivating.

This kind of green plum is compared with the green plum in the old woman's basket, it is simply a heaven and an earth.

Ah Leng was very happy after reading it, because if he could bring back some of the green plums here so that they could be used to make green plum wine, then Lu Xiyi would definitely be very happy.

Unlike Ah Leng, who was full of joy, the old woman's face had already become very ugly.

She originally thought that she would exchange this plum for some money to supplement her family, but now it seems that this idea is about to be shattered.

When the old woman saw that this was no fun, she turned around and left.

Now only the merchant and Ah Leng were left, and the two of them just stood silently, the air as if it were about to condense.

"This son, your mother-in-law has already left, you ...... What questions do you have? ”

Ah Leng's tone sank.

"She is not my mother at all, and I am not the so-called godson in her mouth."

The merchant frowned.

"Oh? Why did Childe do this? ”

"Actually, I came here this time mainly to ask you for something."

The merchant took a sip of tea unhurriedly and said calmly, "Childe, please speak!" ”

"I want to buy some green plums from you, I don't know if you'd like to!"

As soon as he said this, the merchant immediately scolded angrily without saying a word: "Someone! Drop-off! ”

With such a decisive attitude of the businessman, Ah Leng knew at a glance that this matter was probably out of play, but everything could not be decided so early.

While thinking about it, he was about to go back to the restaurant, and when he passed by a small alley, a mournful female voice suddenly sounded.

"Save ...... Help me! Don't come here! Ahh

Ah Leng walked in a little and saw several big men surrounding a thin woman, the woman's eyes were full of fear, and it seemed that she should be frightened.

A few big men actually bullied women, in broad daylight, Lang Lang Qiankun, and there is no royal law!

Ah Leng was furious, and immediately drew his sword and rushed out.

"Hurry up and let go of that girl!"

When a few thugs heard Ah Leng's voice, they turned their heads and glared at Ah Leng viciously.

"Phew! Brothers, have fun here, what does it have to do with your little white face, if you know each other, get out of here, otherwise you will blame Uncle Hugh for the knife in my hand! ”

After the man finished speaking, he swung his big knife in front of Ah Leng.

Ah Leng was really unsightly, he waved his big hand, and the knife snapped in half in front of everyone.

Only then did they realize that Ah Leng was a master who was not easy to mess with, and his momentum disappeared without a trace.

"You wait! Don't let us see you again, or we won't be able to spare you! ”

After the man finished his cruel words, he crawled away.

Seeing this, Ah Leng immediately walked up to the girl, who had her makeup and her hair scattered, and her clothes on her chest were almost stripped, revealing a large piece of snow white.

"Don't be afraid, girl, it's all right!"

Ah Leng kept squinting, not daring to glance at it, and took off his cloak and covered the girl's body, wrapped tightly.

The girl was relieved when she saw that Ah Leng was a righteous gentleman.

"Where's your home, girl? I'll send you back! ”

As soon as the girl heard that she was going home, she shook her head.

"How can I have the face to go back and meet the little woman's parents like this!"

Ah Leng looked at it and nodded in agreement.

The current appearance of this girl is not scared to death even if the person who is a father and mother sees it.

"As the so-called saving people to the end, send the Buddha to the west. Since I saved the girl, I can't just leave the girl behind, I can't do this kind of thing! ”

"Girl, look at what you should do now, as long as you say it, I will help you!"

The girl just blushed and bowed her head silently, as if she was a little embarrassed.

"If the girl has anything to say, you might as well say it directly!"

After a while, the girl said softly, "The little girl has a reluctant request!" ”

"I don't know if it's convenient for the child's house, the little woman wants to clean up the child's house simply."

Ah Leng also knew that there was a violation of the distance, if he lived in a room alone before, of course it was not okay.

It's just that now he lives in a restaurant, and there are people coming and going in the restaurant, and he will not let people gossip.

He resolutely agreed.

Back at Xiaoyao Wine, Lu Xiyi was also startled when he saw that there was suddenly an extra girl next to Ah Leng.

After listening to Ah Leng's explanation, I realized what was going on.

She hurriedly walked to the girl's side and asked gently, "My sister is suffering, I'll take you back to the room to freshen up!" ”

As soon as the two of them entered, the person who was still drinking at the wine table suddenly came to Ah Leng's side and asked with a puzzled face: "Your kid's methods are not simple!" ”

"Say it! How did you get your hands on the rich merchant's daughter! ”

Ah Leng was puzzled.

"What a rich businessman's daughter, I accidentally bumped into a few scoundrels bullying her on the road, and I saved her!"

The man still wouldn't believe it.

"Tut-tut! You kid still don't know that she is the daughter of today's rich businessman, and the whole Liuzhou City knows about it, but you say you don't know? ”

Ah Leng thought that he had misheard, and hurriedly asked, "You just said that the woman is the daughter of a wealthy merchant in childhood?" Is this true? ”

The man took a sip of wine and affirmed, "Of course! I can't lie to you about this, everyone knows! ”

"Do you think so?"

The guests of the restaurant immediately agreed in unison.

Only then did Ah Leng know that the girl he rescued was not someone else but his own life-saving straw, and this time he had to catch whatever he said.

Just as she was thinking, the girl happened to come out of the room.

As soon as Ah Leng saw the girl come out, he rushed forward.

"Girl, I have something to ask for, and I hope the girl agrees!"

The girl was also startled, but she still understood the truth that the grace of this drop of water should be reciprocated.

"What are you talking about, if it weren't for Childe's rescue today, the little woman's innocence would almost not be saved, and if Childe has any difficulties, just tell the little girl."

"But if the little girl can help, she will definitely do it!"

Ah Leng told the girl all about the restaurant in one go.

The girl was also very sympathetic after hearing this, but she didn't expect that this restaurant, which seemed to have such a hot business, would still have such troubles.

But her father loves her the most, and she can still be the master of a few dozen catties of green plums.

Without thinking about it, she agreed.

"Childe, please rest assured, tomorrow morning, the little girl will definitely ask her father to send someone to send Qingmei to the restaurant!"

"Miss!"

Outside the door, a girl in a pale green pleated dress shouted.

When the girl looked at it, she suddenly said, "My maid has come to look for me and go back, so the little woman won't bother!" ”

"A few stays, Qingmei will definitely be delivered on time tomorrow!"

With that, the girl hurried away.

As soon as he heard that Qingmei had finally gone, Lu Xiyi's big stone hanging in his heart was also put down.

But this hasn't seen the green plum yet, and everything is still unknown.

Lu Xiyi couldn't sleep that night, and he didn't sleep well all night.

She got up as soon as it was dawn and began to wander back and forth at the door of the restaurant.

Waiting from early morning to noon, as time passed little by little, Lu Xiyi became more and more nervous.

"Ah Leng, you said it's all here, why haven't we seen Qingmei yet, will that girl deliberately want us both to be happy."

"It's impossible for this to happen, believe me, as long as we wait patiently, we will definitely see Qingmei, maybe it's just a delay on the way."

As the two were talking, they saw several people walking in their direction with bamboo baskets.

"Isn't this coming now?"
