Chapter Ninety-Eight: Painting the Boat
Hua Yulou cheekily leaned over, picked up the cup that Zhuang Rou had drunk, poured himself a glass of wine, smiled and dried it up, then licked his lips and said, "It's so fragrant." ”
"I only ate ten pieces of stinky tofu just now, you have a problem with your tongue." Zhuang Rou bit the crispy dried fish, looked at him and said seriously.
She did it on purpose!
Hua Yulou took the wine glass and put it on the wine glass with a nonchalant face, licked his lips again and said: "You look better now than the day you came out of the Teaching Division, I like the appearance of a woman who is slightly powdered, it looks pleasing to the eye and does not feel boring." ”
Zhuang Rou tilted her head and looked at him puzzled, and said, "I didn't wipe anything, what kind of powder, besides, you also went to the Jiaofang Division for such a coincidence?" ”
"Unfortunately, it was you who bumped into the place where I lived, and I lived in the flower buildings, and I happened to be in the splendid building that day. Suddenly rushed in a lot of officers and soldiers, I still felt a little inexplicable, as if nothing bad had happened, how could so many people come to arrest me. Hua Yulou said with a smile.
"I didn't expect someone to die in the teaching department, I was lying on the window to watch the excitement, and I saw you come out. Even if you wear a hood that covers most of your face, I recognize you at a glance. ”
It's even in the Teaching Division, those people are too useless, this person is a wanted criminal. How could no one recognize him, and let him wander around with swagger all day long, everyone is too blind!
Zhuang Rou glanced at him dissatisfied, wouldn't it be because of his good looks, so no one thought he was a bad person?
Looking at her ill-intentioned, looking up and down, Hua Yulou said seriously: "Other women may not be able to remember, but you can break my heart so badly, even if it turns to ashes, I won't forget it." ”
"It wasn't me who hit you, why are you remembering my face?" Zhuang Rou said dissatisfiedly, not afraid of selling her brother.
Hua Yulou lowered his voice and whispered: "I have checked, your brother is just a student of Guozijian who has not studied for many years, but he has such skills, there must be something wrong behind this." If I shake this out, do you think anyone will want to check it out? ”
Zhuang Rou's face changed, and he grabbed something and threw it at him, and was grabbed by Hua Yulou, and saw that what he caught in his hand was an embroidered shoe.
"Give me back your shoes!" Zhuang Rou said angrily.
"When the shoes fall into the hands of a man, it is not a simple matter, as long as the matter spreads, then no one will dare to marry you. Even if your family doesn't care about reputation and lets you be arrested, the loss of your shoes will lead to countless gossip, which may not do your brother any good. Hua Yulou shook his shoes and said.
Zhuang Rou frowned, stretched her feet back from the water, put them on the boat and said, "Hurry up and give it back to me, otherwise I will call my brother to beat you again." ”
Looking at her water-stained feet, Hua Yulou bent down and reached out to help her put on her shoes, "You can pay it back, but I want to put it on for you myself." ”
"This ...... No, this kind of thing can only be done by my husband! Zhuang Rou said anxiously, but Hua Yulou laughed secretly, no matter how hard she is, she is just a girl.
He quickly reached out and grabbed one of Zhuang Rou's feet, and before he could do something, Zhuang Rou's other foot kicked him in the chest. plopped, Hua Yulou, who was not on guard, grabbed his shoes and kicked him into the water, the injury on his chest was not yet complete, and he was kicked so hard that he almost couldn't float up.
"Idiot! Just say that you are fooled, now it depends on where you run. Zhuang Rou pulled a bamboo pole from the boat and poked it at Hua Yulou's chest in the water. His shoulders have been raised for two or three months, and he was beaten so hard by his brother that day, how could he get better so quickly.
I didn't hit him on the head, but just poked him in the chest, and when he choked a few mouthfuls of water and fainted, he could be scooped up and sent to prison!
The boatman and the housekeeper looked at her speechlessly, not knowing what she was doing at all, but they only felt that this sister was really terrible, and I was afraid that she would have to marry blindly in the future, and deceive whoever was counted.
Hua Yulou only felt that he had stepped on now, and the injuries on his chest that had already been many seemed to have worsened again, and he wanted to fly up with light power, but because of his injuries and falling into the water, he was unable to move, and he was about to be beaten back when he jumped out of the water. It's more humiliating than being beaten in the water, like swatting flies.
He had to block the bamboo pole that came and shouted to the painting boat next to him: "What are you still standing there looking at, come and save me!" ”
"I just want to take a few more looks, how you were beaten by the Reservoir Dogs." There was a man on the boat who had been leaning against the window and watching, with a look of watching a good show.
Hua Yulou scolded angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, pull me up quickly!" ”
The man said regretfully: "It's a pity, I want to watch it for a while." Usually only women cry and make promises, but I haven't seen this fuss to kill you, so I have to take a few more looks. ”
Zhuang Rou looked up at the man on the painting boat, squinting his eyes, his long hair was shawl, and his lips were thin and he smiled, which inexplicably made people feel a bad chill.
She quickly retracted the bamboo pole, placed it on the low table and stepped on it with her right foot, and pulled out a dagger from the cuff of her right hand with her left hand. His eyes were fixed on the man, but his hand slashed at the front end of the bamboo pole, and he cut a diagonal corner on the bamboo pole.
The man on the painting boat smiled, "Save him!" A man immediately jumped out of the window next door and jumped directly to the place where Hua Yulou was.
At the same time, Zhuang Rou endured the pain in her shoulder, and her right hand also helped grab the bamboo pole, and the pointed end poked at Hua Yulou's chest.
Bang!
The head of the bamboo pole that was stabbed was broken, and it flew high into the air and turned around before falling into the water, and the man who entered the water drew his knife and cut off the bamboo pole, hugged Hua Yulou and jumped out of the water and landed on the painting boat. He put down Hua Yulou and aimed a knife at Zhuang Rou, and said with a sinister face: "At a young age, he is as ruthless as he is, and he has to kill people for such a trivial matter!" If I don't eradicate you today, I'm afraid that I will hurt many people in the future! ”
"Oh, so you're a good man like a righteous knight?" Zhuang Rou threw away the bamboo pole, picked up the dagger again, looked at the man and asked.
"I am a man who eats the emperor's food, and the man you saved is a flower thief who rapes and adulterates women, and many women commit suicide because of him. I take him today not only for official business, but also for the people, if you also have sisters, and you are willing to sleep well in the middle of the night, you will be ruined by this kind of man who enters through the window? ”
The man frowned, gritted his teeth and said, "The women that Brother Hua is looking for are all voluntary, they are in love, not what you officials say!" Besides, Brother Hua has a talent, and he still needs to use a strong one? ”
Zhuang Rou suddenly showed a bright smile, "Sure enough, it's a raccoon dog, can this also be exculpatible?" Because he is good-looking and fraternal, those women who die for him are all cheap, and they can't ask for death? ”
"So I blame him for this, so that's not good, it's better to go to the yamen with me to make it clear, or cancel the wanted warrant, otherwise this will cause a misunderstanding, how can it be good?" She looked suddenly enlightened, and then said sincerely.
When others are fools, when they enter the yamen, they are not self-defeating!
The man carried the knife and wanted to fly over the boat, and when he went over there he would meet this woman, his shoulders were like that, and he dared to argue with him with a small dagger.
"Brother Luo, let's go first." Hua Yulou sat on the boat and coughed half to death, but now he slowed down and said quickly.
"Brother Hua, the other party is just a little girl, what are you afraid of! When I tie her up, I'll bring her back. "The man pretended to be a little bit just now, and now he is going to kidnap people unreasonably.
Zhuang Rou snorted, and looked up at the man on the second floor of the painting boat again, it was this person who gave the order just now, and the man jumped down to save Hua Yulou. She stared at the man, whose eyes never seemed to be open, and who had been smiling half-squinting, and asked, "Are you also a lewd/thief?" ”
"It's not." The man replied calmly.
"Oh, can you leave this lewd/thief behind and then you leave?" Zhuang Rou pointed to Hua Yulou very seriously and asked.
"Nope."
Zhuang Rou sighed, "Okay, return the shoes to me, you can take him away." ”
"That's not good, Brother Hua hasn't agreed to return your shoes yet." The man wanted to watch the play, but he refused directly.
"......" Zhuang Rou's eyes quickly swept over the three people, looked at the boat, and said to the boatman: "Uncle, let's drive the boat." ”
The boatman was frightened at the stern of the boat, and when he heard her say this, he asked in a daze, "Can you go?" ”
"yes, let's go." Zhuang Rou responded, glanced at the butler, then put the dagger into the cuff and sat down on the boat again.
The butler was already scared half to death, and the people on this painting boat were on the road, so he hurriedly urged: "Hurry up and row!" Why are you still stunned! ”
"Oh, good." The boatman quickly rocked the boat, just wanting to get away from the boat as quickly as possible.
The man saw that Zhuang Rou didn't even want shoes, so he left, so he probed and said to Hua Yulou on the deck downstairs: "Brother Hua, you have earned it, and you picked up a shoe for nothing." ”
Hua Yulou looked at the shoe in his hand, and was silent for a moment before saying, "She was going to kill me just now." ”
"Well, she didn't have a chance to kill you yet, but when she saw me, she immediately decided to kill you first. Brother Luo didn't pay attention to her provocations, just looked at me, what a very smart and alert person. The man on the boat smiled and glanced back into the cabin, "Let's disperse today, maybe she will attract officers and soldiers." ”
More than two dozen men dressed differently and carrying knives listened to him and put their knives away.
And the boat that Zhuang Rou was sitting on had rowed far away, she slightly tilted her head and looked at the painting boat that was getting farther and farther away from the corner of her eye, and recalled that she had not seen the wanted notice with squinting eyes. If she was just an ordinary Taoist, then she didn't want to meddle in things.
The things on the road are naturally dealt with by the people on the road, but the snake around the capital is Zhuang Xuewen, if there are people on the road, as long as they don't commit crimes, they have nothing to do with her.
