Chapter 757: Crisis
On people's happy days, you send a sword over, is it a blessing, or does it mean something else?
Du Yuniang rolled her eyes, "Marriage is a happy event, where is there a sword!?" If you really want to give her a good sword, it's better to keep it for now, and then give it when you have the opportunity later. ”
"yes!" Yang Zheng said: "I can't help with this kind of thing, you can watch and prepare!" ”
Really! This matter of giving away a good sword can really be listened to as a joke.
"Or I'll give you some jewelry, although my aunt won't like it, but you can keep it for her children in the future! Something valuable is eligible to press the bottom of the box. Du Yuniang felt that this was much more meaningful than giving a sword.
"It's all up to you." Yang Zheng is like a wife and slave, so naturally Du Yuniang is right in everything she says.
The third and fourth days of the new year are the days of relatives, and on the fifth day of the new year, the whole family must be careful not to break anything.
On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Qianwei Zhai set off a lot of firecrackers, and there were red crumbs in front of the door, and the sound shook the sky.
Xiao Cheng stood at the door wearing a new suit, and waited for the sound of firecrackers to disperse, before arching his hand to the crowd watching the excitement, and raised his voice: "Qianwei Zhai opened on the first day of the New Year today, I hope the neighbors will have more support, all snacks and snacks today will be discounted by 20%, only this day!" ”
As soon as the words ended, the crowd burst into warm applause. Qianwei Zhai's things are basically not discounted, his dim sum tastes really good, but unfortunately the price is also high, not in time for the New Year's holidays, how can ordinary people often come to buy dim sum to eat!
It's on sale today, which is good news.
But......
Someone asked, "Who are you, why haven't you seen it before?" ”
Xiao Cheng, this sweat! You must know that in the past, he looked like an old man in his sixties, usually unkempt, and he didn't look like a shopkeeper, but like a scoundrel. Now that his appearance has recovered four or five percent, he looks like a person in his early forties, even if he is a frequent visitor to Qianwei Zhai, I am afraid that he will not recognize him.
"Uh...... The previous shopkeeper Xiao was his father. "Damn~ How did he say such a thing.
"Oh!" Someone suddenly realized: "No wonder I look at some good-natured, it turns out to be the son of the old shopkeeper." ”
"I heard that the old shopkeeper is sick and wants to go home to recuperate, how is it now?"
Xiao Cheng was a little overwhelmed, and his eyes rolled and said: "Still recuperating, everyone, the dim sum is freshly baked, please come in!" Don't wait for obsolescence! 20% off for one day! ”
At this moment, who can take care of Lao Xiao, he immediately rushed to the store, for fear that if he was one step late, the good things would be picked up by others.
Xiao Cheng smiled with a 'sincere' face, beckoning everyone to enter the store, and actually exclaimed in his heart, so dangerous. It's the first time he's done doing it for himself!
The business in the store is very hot, the two guys are busy, and even Sister-in-law Jiang came out to help. The VIP guests hadn't shown up yet, and the ordinary guests alone had already kept them busy with the back of their heads.
At this moment, Liu Xinger also came to the shop.
She knew that there were a lot of people today, so she didn't add to the chaos, so she found a place to stay quietly. When Sister-in-law Jiang saw her, she couldn't help but feel a little strange, although Miss Liu is a lively person, she rarely comes to the shop, why is she so strange today, she came here.
After taking a moment, Sister-in-law Jiang walked up to Liu Xing'er and asked, "Miss Liu, why are you here?" ”
Liu Xing'er went against the usual casual normality in the past, and her eyes scanned the customer's body: "The fifth brother asked me to come over." ”
Sister-in-law Jiang is also a person in the rivers and lakes, and after thinking about it slightly, she knew that Liu Xing'er was definitely not here to see the excitement, she must be doing something.
"Okay, then I won't bother you! Something, you squeak. ”
Sister-in-law Jiang was just about to leave, but Liu Xing'er grabbed her arm and said in a low voice: "Sister-in-law Jiang, someone is going to come to the store to make trouble, you should also pay attention." ”
Sister-in-law Jiang was stunned for a moment, and there was a chill in her eyes, "Okay, don't worry!" "I think the fifth master received some news in advance, so he asked Miss Liu to come over.
Sister-in-law Jiang looked around and found nothing abnormal, so she went back to the counter to greet the guests.
The conversation between the two was very low and did not attract the attention of others. But Sister-in-law Jiang had a string in her heart, as if this string would break at any time.
Who is so blind-eyed and wants to make trouble in Qianwei Zhai?
At this moment, a person suddenly walked in at the door.
A person who is dressed very ordinarily and looks no different from ordinary township people. In his thirties, his face was full of traces of time, and his gaze was a little cramped and uneasy, and his gaze lingered back and forth on the counter.
It should be this person.
Liu Xing'er stood up quietly and approached the man.
The man was defenseless, squeezed through the crowd to the counter, and asked the guy to wrap him half a pound of trough cake.
This kind of dim sum is the cheapest, usually only ten yuan a catty, today half a catty is only four yuan.
The young man was patient and didn't snub him because what he was going to buy wasn't worth much.
The middle-aged man shuddered and took out the money from his arms, counted four and handed it over. He didn't care about the young man's thanks, and walked outside with snacks, looking very anxious.
Liu Xing'er hurriedly followed him, far away.
The street is very lively, and many shops choose to open on the eighth day of the new year, which is auspicious.
The man walked quickly, and in a few moments he was into an alley.
Liu Xing'er stood at the mouth of the alley and took a look, and when she saw that there was no one around, she jumped and jumped onto the roof.
Condescendingly, she quickly spotted the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man walked through the streets and alleys and came to a small courtyard of a private house.
In the very dilapidated courtyard, you can see bleak scenes everywhere, which shows that the family is not doing well.
Suddenly, Liu Xing'er realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly lowered her body and hid herself. When the middle-aged man knocked on the door, a burly and powerful man suddenly came out of the room, he cautiously pressed his body against the dilapidated door panel, and asked in a low voice, "Who." ”
The middle-aged man said, "I've bought it back." ”
The man opened the door, dragged the middle-aged man into the courtyard, and looked around vigilantly, but he really didn't see anyone staring, so he closed the door.
Liu Xing'er thought to herself, these two people are not all the way at first glance, how can they be together? There are quirks.
Liu Xing'er's kung fu is also excellent, she thought about it and decided to take the risk to try how many people there were in the house. Because Liu Xing'er has a perennial 'lower three indiscriminate' powder, she is not afraid even if the other party is overwhelming.
She wanted to find out what these people were for.
She landed lightly in the backyard, without alarming anyone, and then crept around to the front yard, with the cat under the window.
Someone was talking in the room.
"Strong ...... Strongman, this, do you really want to take this medicine and snacks together? ”
"Didn't you already know, nonsense?"
Medicine?
Liu Xing'er frowned and continued to listen.
"But ......" the man cried, "Sanya is my daughter, I ......" couldn't do it.
There was a woman's cry in the room, a very suppressed cry, obviously afraid of something.
"Either she dies alone, or your whole family dies together, choose one!"
The cry in the room was louder, "Oh my God, how can we live here!?" ”
Liu Xing'er had already distinguished that there was only one big man in the room, and no one else. She is not afraid to do anything with the big man, but she is afraid that the big man will arrest innocent people in a hurry~
Liu Xing'er took out a small bamboo tube from her sleeve, stuffed one end of the bamboo tube into the broken window paper, and then blew it gently, and a stream of colorless and odorless smoke quietly spread into the house.
"Anyway, if she doesn't die, you will die! It's worth exchanging her life for the wealth of your family. The big man seemed a little impatient, "Hurry up and pour the medicine down." ”
"Don't, I beg you, my three ......"
Plop.
Liu Xing'er smiled a little, and the big man's exclamation came from his ears: "It's not good......"
Then there was another plop, plop, plop, as if something had fallen.
Liu Xing'er silently counted a few times, then stood up, took out a pill from the purse she was carrying, and took it.
Liu Xing'er entered the house and found six people lying in the house.
Two adults, four children. As for the strong man, Liu Xing'er took the initiative to put him in the beast pile.
The couple should be the ones who were threatened by the big man, three small children, three girls, and one boy lying on the ground. The eldest of the three girls looked to be eleven or twelve years old, and the youngest should be the third girl, four or five years old, black and thin.
The children were dressed in tatters and were born very thin. It was cold inside, and on the table was a set of broken teacups and teapots, and a clay pot with several boiled sweet potatoes in it. Then there is the dim sum bought from Qianwei Zhai, the oil paper bag has been opened, and a few slot cakes are quietly in the paper bag.
It was a very poor family.
Liu Xing'er looked at the strong man again.
The man has a scar on his face and doesn't look like a good person. After another search, I found nothing but a few pieces of broken silver.
Suddenly, Liu Xing'er found that the middle-aged man seemed to be holding something in his hand, and she quickly broke his hand and found that it was a small paper bag. She opened the paper bag and took a look, and was immediately shocked, the little powder in the bag was arsenic ~ frost ~
Thinking about the words she had just heard, Liu Xing'er suddenly understood.
This strong man is estimated to deal with the fifth brother and fifth sister-in-law, so he took the lives of the old and young of this family and forced them to kill people. At that time, as long as it is said that the child ate a snack ~ poison ~ and died, this matter can be planted on Qianwei Zhai unconsciously, and the fifth brother and fifth sister-in-law, as the owners of Qianwei Zhai, will definitely be in a lawsuit.
Hehe......
I really don't know whether to live or die.
Liu Xing'er re-wrapped the small paper bag, turned around and walked out of the house, and found two hemp ropes in the yard. She tied the strong man to a strong one, and then tied the man to a pillar in the house, and then dissolved the antidote and fed the family with the antidote.
The two adults were the first to wake up, and after the middle-aged man and his daughter-in-law woke up, their first reaction was to find a few children, but they found that the children had fallen to the ground, and the husband and wife thought that the children were dead, and they cried loudly, and they didn't even notice that there was Liu Xing'er in the house.
Liu Xing'er frowned and shouted, "Don't cry, they're fine." ”
Only then did the couple realize that there was a strange girl in the house, and the man who had come to the door before was actually tied up.
"You, who are you!" The woman was a little panicked, but maybe because Liu Xing'er was a daughter, her expression was quite calm.
"You don't need to know who I am, your children are fine, they are all alive and well, can you not howl?"
The woman nodded blankly, and went to see some of the children, who woke up just in time, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
The middle-aged man looked at Liu Xing'er defensively, "Who the hell are you, why did you come to our house?" ”
Liu Xing'er raised the small paper bag containing arsenic ~ frost ~ , and the man was shocked, "I...... You~" couldn't even say a complete sentence.
Several of the children looked frightened, cowering to the side, or hiding in their mother's arms.
Liu Xing'er sighed, pointed to the strong man who was tied up, and said, "Tell me, how did you know him, he asked you to harm people, didn't he?" ”
The husband and wife were full of bitterness, their bodies trembled slightly, they were very scared and helpless.
Liu Xing'er thought, maybe this is the sorrow of the poor! Sometimes, in order to survive, in order to live, they have to do something that makes their own hearts ache.
How innocent the child is!
"The snacks on the table are still clean, let the children take them to the Westinghouse and share them and eat them!" There are some words that should not be heard by children.
The woman hurriedly got up and stuffed the snacks on the table into the arms of the eldest daughter, "Big girl, take your younger brothers and sisters to eat snacks." ”
The little girl took the snack anxiously, and was soon attracted by the fragrance of the snack, she swallowed her saliva and asked timidly: "Mother, can the big girl eat a little?" I'll just eat a little. ”
The woman's tears fell at once, "Yes, you can share it with your brothers and sisters, and eat them all." ”
Children are children, and they don't understand the world of adults at all. The four children happily left the house and went to the Westinghouse for a snack.
"What the hell is going on?" Liu Xing'er clasped her hands in front of her chest, "Can you say it now?" ”
The couple looked at each other, not knowing whether to say or not.
"Don't say? Well, I'll say it for you. Liu Xing'er said: "You went to Qianwei Zhai to buy dim sum, you were instructed by this man, right?" He prepared arsenic~~ frost, let you mix it into snacks for the child to eat, and when the child dies, this dirty water will be splashed on Qianwei Zhai, right? ”
The husband and wife were shocked, they didn't expect that Liu Xing'er actually knew everything, it can be said that it was clear.
"Girl, you...... Who the hell are you? ”
Liu Xing'er sneered, "I'm the person from Qianwei Zhai." ”
