078 The Truth (3)
After coming out of the back door of the palace, Lin Dongxian felt much more comfortable, and smiled at Zhou Mingmu: "I'm sorry, I made you laugh just now." "It's nothing, let's go to the three-yuan gambling house now and try our luck." Zhou Mingmu led the way in front, he often came to the town to sell prey, and knew where the Sanyuan gambling house was? Lin Dongxian followed his footsteps, and not long after the two left the palace, Mrs. Wang remembered that this was not the maid that Mama Li once brought over, why did she become Lin He's sister in a blink of an eye?
Is there any ulterior secret in it that makes me have a headache just thinking about it? If she ran over to question Lin He, Wang Mingbo would definitely protect her, beckoned to the grandmother at the door, and commanded a few words in her ear, and after seeing the grandmother leave, she closed her eyes and lay on the couch to rest for a while. Wang Mingbo supported Lin He distressedly, she couldn't eat these days, and occasionally she only ate a few mouthfuls of food under his pressure.
Involuntarily stretched out his hand to caress Lin He's eyebrows, wanting to soothe her sorrows, but unfortunately the subordinates sent out never found Lin Zhiwu and Mei's. He was a little ashamed of Lin He, and a trace of loneliness flashed in Lin He's eyes, who slowly came back to his senses: "I'm fine, it's not early, go home quickly!" You can't blow the wind outside for too long, and your mother will be worried, go, I'll hold you. ”
What can she do, she hasn't found Mei yet, she can't sleep all night with worry, there are a lot of red threads in her eyes, and she doesn't want Wang Mingbo to worry about her anymore. Otherwise, Mrs. Wang will find trouble again and say some ugly things to stimulate her. Wang Mingbo secretly swore in his heart that he must find Mei's for Lin He as soon as possible, so that she could sleep peacefully. It's not that Lin He doesn't want to sleep well, but as soon as he closes his eyes, he thinks of Mei's, is it life or death? Lin Zhiwu is too disagreeable, he is simply a brute who has lost his conscience.
Lin Dongxian and Zhou Mingmu looked around in the Sanyuan gambling house, but they didn't see Lin Zhiwu's shadow. also deliberately inquired with Xiao Er, and briefly talked about Lin Zhiwu's appearance, Xiao Er shook his head, he was not impressed, there were more than 100 people who came to gamble every day, how could he remember it. Seeing that the sky was slowly darkening, Zhou Mingmu said: "Go to the inn to find it." ”
Lin Zhiwu always has to eat and drink in the town, he has a lot of money on him, and he didn't take Mei to the hospital, maybe he can't say which inn he is in. But before that, Lin Dongxian was going to find Lin Jue to see if Lin Zhiwu had looked for him? Lin Jue was just about to go back to the backyard to rest, when he heard someone calling him, turned around and saw Lin Dongxian and a strange man coming over. He frowned and said warily, "Dong Xian, who is he?" ”
"Big brother, this is a person from the village, you don't know it, I think you have been in the town for a long time." Saying that, she immediately turned around and looked at Zhou Mingmu: "I don't know what your name is?" "I smiled wryly, really, I've seen two or three faces, and I don't even know each other's names.
Saying the three words Zhou Mingmu from his mouth, Lin Dongxian was slightly stunned, he was Zhou Mingmu, isn't it! How is it possible, it must have the same name and surname, she thinks too much. Zhou Mingmu in front of him lived in a thatched hut on the mountain behind Qingping Village, and made a living from hunting, and quickly denied the unrealistic ideas in his mind. Lin felt that he knew Lin Dongxian's intention, and immediately lowered his face: "Why didn't you come to the town earlier and tell me that the second uncle came to me the day before yesterday and borrowed a tael of silver." I don't have it with me, so I borrowed it from my boss. ”
Lin Zhiwu came to borrow money, it seems that it will be no good thing. Lin Dongxian pouted: "I didn't know that he would really come to you, I have been waiting in my hometown, thinking that the second uncle would take the second aunt back, who knew that he was a liar." Okay, big brother, you can figure it out, I'll look elsewhere. Lin Jue's tael of silver was afraid that it would be lost, and when he saw her turn to leave, he hurriedly shouted: "Dongxian, wait, don't tell my mother about this." ”
For fear that the Hua clan would know that he would keep chattering in his ear again, and he would have a terrible headache. Lin Dongxian nodded in understanding: "Big brother, I know, don't worry!" I won't tell my aunt, okay, I'm leaving, take care of yourself, remember to go back and have a look when you have time. Zhou Mingmu also nodded at him and left behind Lin Dongxian. So the two of them left to look for the inns in the town.
Just when they were desperate, Lin Dongxian suddenly pulled Zhou Mingmu's sleeve: "My second uncle is there, catch up with him." Following Lin Dongxian's gaze, Zhou Mingmu squinted and quickly crawled towards Lin Zhiwu. Realizing that someone seemed to be walking towards him, Lin Zhiwu looked around, but he didn't expect to see Lin Dongxian, so he hurriedly ran away.
Lin Dongxian shouted loudly: "Second uncle, second uncle, don't run, don't run." Zhou Mingmu ran faster than her, in front, Lin Dongxian followed behind. Seeing that it was getting closer and closer, Zhou Mingmu stretched out his hand and grabbed Lin Zhiwu hard, so that he could not move. Lin Zhiwu struggled to break free: "Who are you, why are you pulling me, let go quickly, I still have urgent matters, delay my affairs, you can be responsible!" The split was a reprimand, but Zhou Mingmu ignored him, so he let go of his hand.
When Lin Dongxian ran over out of breath, she stepped forward and kicked Lin Zhiwu's calf a few times: "Second uncle, you have gone too far and deceived our whole family." Where did you hide your second aunt, tell me quickly! If you don't tell the truth today, I won't let you go! "I don't mind being rough with him, even if Zhou Mingmu looks at it, it's important to rescue Mei's family. These days, in the dead of night, I always wake up, and Mei's thin appearance comes to mind, which is really distressing.
"Lin Dongxian, you are just spoiled by the third child, you have become so big and small, no one in your eyes, I am your second uncle, you actually beat me. Okay, you want to find your second aunt, right, I don't tell you yet, I don't believe in evil, what can you do to me, don't let me go, let me tell you, there is no one in this world that I am afraid of Lin Zhiwu. Lin Zhiwu tried to break free from Zhou Mingmu's restraints, and couldn't help shouting.
Many people gathered around, pointing at Lin Zhiwu and Lin Dongxian, and discussing a lot. Lin Zhiwu took the opportunity to cry to the people, and Lin Dongxian, as a niece, bullied him and asked them to comment on it. It's really weird, and he beat him upside down, Lin Dongxian immediately came out with what Lin Zhiwu did to Mei's family, and the people's words changed at the moment, and a few children even smashed Lin Zhiwu with the toys in their hands.
Lin Zhiwu's eyes widened: "Lin Dongxian, you wait for me, the more you treat me like this, the more I won't tell you where Mei's is?" "Seeing that she didn't beg him well, Lin Zhiwu was really a scoundrel. Lin Dongxian walked into Lin Zhiwu step by step: "Second uncle, I'll give you one last chance, do you say it or not?" Whispering in his ear, Lin Zhiwu raised his head: "Hmph, I just don't say it, see what you can do to me?" ”
With the determination to fight Lin Dongxian to the end, Lin Dongxian gave Zhou Mingmu a look: "Don't stand, I can't ask the whereabouts of my second aunt, let's go to the yamen and let the county master help us." "County master, these three listened to Lin Zhiwu's scalp tingling, "Lin Dongxian, what are you going to do, don't I go to the yamen?" "Second uncle, you listen to me, if you don't go to the yamen, it's okay, you can tell me obediently, where is the second aunt?"
Lin Dongxian gently hooked her lips and looked at Lin Zhiwu, she must think clearly. Lin Zhiwu smiled wryly: "Dong Xian, everyone is a family, why bother with the yamen." In this way, let's find a place where no one is around, and I'll tell you slowly, okay? There were more and more onlookers, and he was a little embarrassed. So Zhou Mingmu pressed Lin Zhiwu and followed Lin Dongxian to a remote alley.
The two surrounded Lin Zhiwu one after the other, Zhou Mingmu was an Orion, and he had some kung fu, which was more than enough to deal with Lin Zhiwu. Lin Dongxian couldn't help but secretly rejoice in her heart, thanks to Zhou Mingmu accompanying her, otherwise even if she saw Lin Zhiwu, she might not be able to catch up with him, and even get Mei's whereabouts from him. Lin Zhiwu confessed that he did not take Mei to the town clinic to see a doctor, but took her to beg in the town.
The two people who picked him up in the town were people from the three-yuan gambling house, and he went in and blocked it for a while, who knew that he was too lucky at the beginning, and won more than 20 taels. But not long after, his luck was bad, and he lost more than ten in a row, no, he owed thirty taels of gambling debts all of a sudden. I really didn't have a way, so I paid attention to Mei's.
took her to the street to beg for less than a tael of silver, and he continued to gamble with an itch in his heart, thinking that his luck would not be bad all the time, but he didn't think that the more he gambled, the more he lost, and suddenly he owed ten taels of gambling debts. The boss told him to pay back the money quickly, and he couldn't get a cent. had to beg the boss if he could put Mei's in the gambling house as collateral, and he quickly raised money to take Mei's away.
Who would have thought that Lin Zhiwu could be ruthless not to Mei's, she was still unconscious, and she hadn't come out yet. After hearing what he said, Lin Dongxian clenched her fists and gave Lin Zhiwu two punches: "It's too unusual, the second aunt is not in good health, so you can ruthlessly leave her alone." There are all kinds of people in the gambling house, you are really a beast. He was about to continue to raise his fist to hit Lin Zhiwu, but was stopped by Zhou Mingmu behind him: "It's still important to find your second aunt." ”
He reminded him right, and when he turned around, he had time to settle accounts with Lin Zhiwu. It's been two or three days, I don't know if Mei's is still in the Sanyuan Gambling House, before leaving, Lin Dongxian didn't forget to give Lin Zhiwu a kick again: "You'd better bless the second aunt Mei's, otherwise I'll fight with you, by the way, and the eldest sister, she won't let you go." Lin Zhiwu covered his right cheek with his hand, not to mention that Lin Dongxian, a dead girl, can really do it, wait, one day he will take revenge and come back!
However, there is one thing that Lin Dongxian reminded Lin Zhiwu that Lin He lived a comfortable life in the palace, why should he live a poor and sour life. He didn't believe that he was Lin He's father, and he couldn't see the head of the palace. Lin Dongxian and Zhou Mingmu came to the Sanyuan Gambling House again, the sky gradually darkened, and the number of people in the gambling house gradually increased, and they walked directly to the guy: "Take me to see your boss, I have something important to look for him." ”
The guy looked the two of them up and down, and finally said: "What do you think you are, you want to see our boss, you are not qualified enough." If you gamble, go over there, or go out, the door is there! The guy didn't have time to talk to them, just about to leave, his arm was pinched by Zhou Mingmu, and he immediately lowered his posture: "Big brother, what are you doing, our gambling house has the rules of the gambling house, it's not that anyone who says they want to see the boss will see the boss, don't embarrass me." ”
"I don't want to embarrass you, then don't cooperate with us, go and take me to meet your boss." The guy was forced by Lin Dongxian and had no choice, Zhou Mingmu seemed to have two brushes, the guy lowered his head and whistled twice, and soon more than a dozen guys came out of the gambling house and surrounded the two of them. Lin Dongxian's eyes flashed slightly, and she knew that the gambling house was not so easy to break into. Zhou Mingmu protected her with one hand and fought with more than a dozen guys with the other, worthy of being an Orion, and her skills were good.
The guys were dumbfounded, and more than a dozen guys were immediately leveled by Zhou Mingmu, and they were so frightened that they were about to turn around and leave, but they were captured back by Zhou Mingmu: "Say, what about your boss?" "No way, this time the guy has to be obedient and take them to the boss. Be sure to inquire about Mei's whereabouts, but it's a pity that Jin Kuiye, the owner of the Sanyuan Gambling House, is a businessman, who pays attention to money and interests, and will not hand over Mei's to Lin Dongxian for no reason.
"I will not tell you unless you take fifty taels of silver. If you continue to stay here, don't blame me for reporting to the official, you must know that I can open a three-yuan gambling house in the town, which proves that there are people behind me, you give me caution. Jin Kuiye didn't mind telling the truth to the two of them, just the two in front of him, it was strange that they could get fifty taels of silver.
"Boss, it's not forty taels, how can it become fifty taels in the blink of an eye?" Lin Dongxian frowned incomprehensibly, it was too much, and the price of the ground was rising too fast. This boss looks not old, in his thirties, and there is a little more cold between his eyebrows. Jin Kuiye shook his head disapprenously: "Little girl, you are too young to understand the rules of our industry. Your second uncle said that he would come and redeem people in two days, and four days have passed, and I can't wait, you say, isn't it? ”
Lin Dongxian wanted to continue to say something, but was stopped by Zhou Mingmu, and suddenly took out fifty taels of silver from her sleeve and threw it to the boss: "Now I can say it!" Jin Kuiye took the silver and began to count it, quickly put it in his sleeve, and touched his chin with a smile: "I really didn't expect that you really took it out, then I will tell you that Mei's was sold by me." "Sold it, you went too far, my second aunt is still unconscious, where did you sell her?"
Lin Dongxian couldn't wait to step forward and strangle him, and Zhou Mingmu's fifty taels of silver were given for nothing. Why did he pay off his gambling debts for Lin Zhiwu, he has hands and feet, who let him come out to gamble. Jin Kuiye shrugged helplessly: "Originally, I couldn't tell you, but for the sake of your sincerity, it's okay to tell you, but you have to promise me one condition." ”
Why are there so many things, Lin Dongxian and Zhou Mingmu glanced at each other, and after the two nodded in agreement, Jin Kuiye told them that Mei's was bought by Mrs. Zhou from Ruyi Embroidery Workshop. As for what the two of them want to do, it is very simple, in their name, go to the Ruyi Embroidery Workshop and order a hundred pieces of clothes for the Sanyuan Gambling Workshop.
Zhou Mingmu raised his eyebrows slightly, but Lin Dongxian couldn't squeak, but Lin Dongxian couldn't help but ask: "Boss, you're not joking, such a trivial matter can be done by just someone, why do you want us to do it?" "Since she first came in, Lin Dongxian came for the Mei family, and they paid off the gambling debts of fifty taels of silver for Lin Zhiwu. Jin Kuiye is optimistic about Lin Dongxian and Zhou Mingmu, unlike villains who are greedy for vanity.
