Chapter 024: Pick up a few for me to play with
The city lord's eyes were weak, and he subconsciously lowered his eyes, and happened to see the pocket dagger that was thrown on the table before, and his confidence suddenly rose back, and he raised his hand menacingly: "Then this sharp weapon, what is the explanation of the shopkeeper Qu?" ”
Qu shopkeeper frowned, looked at the owner's face, and then tilted his head to look at Bi Tao, only to see Bi Tao's teary eyes open her mouth, looking like she wanted to say something but couldn't say anything, she couldn't help but turn around to see what happened to her, and before she got closer, the man in Xuanyi behind the owner suddenly flicked his fingers, and flew over his arm vigorously, just hitting the acupuncture point in front of Bi Tao.
"Whew." Bi Tao's body trembled slightly, let out a low roar, and suddenly found that he could speak, and he struggled hard, and knelt on the ground with a puff, "Young Master Chu, Bi Tao doesn't want to assassinate you, Bi Tao just wants the young city lord to die." collided with the son, it is Bi Tao's fault alone, it is not about Fenghualou, please let the son let Fenghualou go, please. As he spoke, he kowtowed again and again, and after a while, his fair and good-looking forehead was red, swollen and broken, oozing traces of blood.
"Bi Tao, okay, what did you do to assassinate the young city lord?" Shopkeeper Qu was dumbfounded in surprise, and leaned over to pull Bi Tao up.
Bi Tao was very stubborn, she refused to get up, she just grabbed one of the hands of the shopkeeper Qu, raised her tear-stained face, and said in a stacked voice: "Shopkeeper, I am very grateful to Fenghualou for taking me in for so many years, I didn't want to cause trouble in the building, but I saw him so carefree, thinking of my tragic death of Li Lang, I couldn't help it, I want him to die, I want him to give my Li Lang a burial...... I want him to bury my Li Lang! ”
At the end of the words, there was already a hoarse shout, Bi Tao was ferocious, suddenly burst out, pulled out the golden hairpin on his bun, and pounced on the city lord and son regardless of it.
The lord of the city was frightened by her red-eyed, disheveled, and demon-like description, and his steps were vague to dodge to the side, but he accidentally stepped on his left foot and his right foot, fell down with a bang, and hit the side of the mahogany table, causing the whole person to curl up in pain.
Bi Tao pounced on him, and the sharp golden hairpin stabbed hard at the side of his neck. However, I don't know if the golden hairpin is too blunt, or Bi Tao really has no strength in his hands, this time he didn't stab in, only scratched a little skin, and when Bi Tao raised his hand to prepare for the second stab, the servants of the city lord and son had already grabbed her and dragged her away, and pressed her to the ground.
"Kill her, kill her......" The lord of the city, Gongzi, held his waist with one hand and the side of his neck with the other, and moved back in horror.
The servant got the order, pinched Bi Tao's neck with one hand, and his fingers and claws were forced, Ye Xuanya felt that she could hear the sound of her neck being broken, and a gust of wind suddenly came out of thin air, and suddenly overturned the two servants who were pressing Bi Tao.
Bi Tao was free, blushing and coughing for a while, and once again clenched the golden hairpin and threw himself towards the city lord's son, and was struck in the back of the neck by the shopkeeper Qu's quick hand knife, and collapsed unwillingly.
The shopkeeper Qu was relieved, beckoned Xiao Er to take Bi Tao down, no longer bothered with the frightened city lord son, and bowed to the owner: "This son is really a personal grudge, a misunderstanding, you see ......"
The corners of the owner's lips pursed lightly and shook his head: "It's a misunderstanding, so it's just that." ”
"Childe is generous." Shopkeeper Qu arched his hand again and proposed, "I have disturbed the interest of the prince and this girl for no reason, and I am afraid that the two of them will not be able to eat to their heart's content, so it is better for me to prepare another table of wine and food, which will be regarded as reparation." ”
"No need, it's not early, I'm going home." Ye Aya waved her hand and walked away.
Shensha didn't want to stay for a long time, and finally heard Ye Aya say that he was leaving, as if he had been amnestied, he hurried to follow, his steps were so fast that he almost crossed in front of Ye Aya.
The proprietor frowned, and also rejected the proposal of the shopkeeper Qu, and followed Ye Aya downstairs, but when he got to the street, Ye Aya was nowhere to be seen, and his figure couldn't help but pause, and he quickly recovered, and walked along the street, not knowing where he planned to go.
The man in Xuanyi looked at his master, his brows twisted again and again, and he gestured towards the void. After the master returned to Shengjing, he received several letters from Ye Qian, which described the various changes in Ye Aya, and the master immediately decided to come to Tianhai City, he always felt that the master was not here to help Ye Qian, but simply came to Ye Aya.
In the jewelry store across the street, Ye Aya held an emerald green jade bracelet, watched the owner walk away, until she couldn't see it anymore, and immediately put down the jade bracelet, beckoning Shen Sha to come out of the store and return to Fenghua Building.
The shopkeeper Qu instructed someone to send the city lord's son back to the city lord's mansion, and just after returning to the counter, he saw Ye Aya going and returning, and couldn't help but greet him in surprise: "Is there anything else to do with the girl?" ”
"There are some things that I can't say just now." Ye Xuan's jaw was removed, and the lapis lazuli ring was suddenly revealed.
Shopkeeper Qu lowered his head and saw it, not only did the surprise not fade, but it became deeper, and he looked Ye Aya up and down inquiringly for a long time before smiling and personally leading Ye Aya into the inner courtyard.
"Where did this ring come from, girl?" When he stepped over the door of the inner courtyard, the shopkeeper Qu's face became cold, and his eyes looked at Ye Aya fiercely.
Ye Aya moved her eyebrows, caught some subtle voices in her ears, and chuckled: "Don't be nervous, this ring is naturally given to me by my father." ”
"Your father?" Shopkeeper Qu repeated in a low voice, doubting the letter, "Are you the Ye family's eldest sister, Ye Aya?" ”
"Exactly." Ye Aya responded with a smile.
"It's nonsense, Miss Ye Jiayan has a soft temperament and won't gather energy, where is the girl like her? For the sake of the girl's words in front of her, she left the ring and left quickly, otherwise ......" The shopkeeper Qu did not continue, and rubbed his fingers hanging on his side, as if giving an order.
Ye Aya glanced at the past, but she didn't understand or understand, and put her hands behind her back leisurely: "If the shopkeeper doesn't believe it, you can send a letter to Xin Yi to ask." ”
Shopkeeper Qu paused, his eyebrows almost twisted into a knot: "Are you really Ye Aya?" ”
"It's like a fake." Ye Aya bent her eyebrows.
The shopkeeper Qu was silent for a long time, raised his hand and waved, and the sound of breathing in the secret receded in an instant.
"The master has been in retreat for so many years, has he finally come out?" Shopkeeper Qu's face softened, and he asked with a sigh.
Ye Aya shook her head: "My father still needs to retreat for a while, so he passed the ring to me and asked me to come to Fenghua Building to find you as the shopkeeper of Qu." ”
Shopkeeper Qu sighed: "It's been eleven years in the blink of an eye." After sighing, he looked at Ye Aya, "Miss is not the same as rumored. ”
"After going through some things, there is no change, and I am about to step into the ghost gate." Ye Aya said a word, and asked in her mouth, "Shopkeeper Qu, when my father passed the ring to me, he only said that it was a shadow guard independent of the Ye family, but looking at the situation just now, it doesn't seem to be the case." ”
Shopkeeper Qu was silent for a long time, as if he was thinking about words, and said for a long time: "Eleven years ago, it was indeed just a shadow guard, and the master allocated funds to a Zhuangzi in the countryside, and his subordinates took it from the Zhuangzi to support the people below.
The master suddenly began to retreat, and the power fell into the hands of Ye Qian, and he would allocate funds in the first two years, but later Ye Qian noticed that it was unusual, so he stopped allocating funds. The subordinates couldn't contact the master, and the income of Fenghualou was far from enough to spend, so they were even more unwilling to disperse, so the subordinates discussed with Lao Lu for a few days, and finally decided to do the murder business. ”
"In this way, Fenghua Building has long been operating independently." Ye Aya answered, her face did not show any abnormality, and she secretly frowned in her heart. Now that it has been operating independently for nine years, how much loyalty remains?
Shopkeeper Qu nodded slightly, and then as if he had guessed the thoughts in Ye Aya's heart, he looked at Ye Aya's head fixedly: "Although Fenghualou has long been independent, although Miss can rest assured, if there is an expulsion, the subordinates will not give up." ”
"Shopkeeper Qu......" Ye Aya was slightly startled, and opened her mouth to explain something, but Shopkeeper Qu waved his hand calmly and smiled at her.
"The subordinates have been separated from the master's support and have been a force of their own for so long, it is normal for the young lady to have some hesitation in her heart, and the subordinates do not feel that there is anything wrong. It's just that Miss doesn't know, the subordinates are orphans, starving and wandering around, fortunately the master built Fenghualou to have a place to stay, the master to the subordinates and other grace and reconstruction, the subordinates will never betray the master, and now the master will pass the ring to the hands of the miss, and the subordinates naturally take the young lady's head as the horse. ”
As the shopkeeper said, he was about to kneel down on one knee to Ye Aya, and Ye Ayaya hurriedly supported him: "It's my villain's heart, the shopkeeper Qu is an elder, I don't deserve to kneel down with the shopkeeper, please get up quickly." ”
"Miss is in love." Shopkeeper Qu didn't know martial arts, he was supported by Ye Xuanya, he couldn't kneel, he had to give up the stalemate and stand upright, but his back was slightly bent, obviously a respectful gesture, "Miss is here today, what do you have to say?" ”
"Yes, I want to bother the shopkeeper Qu to help me prepare a few little maids, and I want to change the people in my yard." Ye Aya is not pretentious, and explains her intentions directly.
Shopkeeper Qu immediately understood what Ye Xuanya meant, and bowed his head: "Lao Lu is training a group of little girls in his hands, and when he turns around, his subordinates will tell him to let him pick a few lovely ones to send to the building." When the words fell, there was a slight hesitation on his face, "Miss, the business in this building ......"
"It's fine as usual." Ye Aya replied in one bite, and when she thought of something, she smiled brightly, "When I sort out the mess in the yard, I will also take a few tasks for me to play." ”
"How is this possible?" The shopkeeper was shocked.
"Why not, it's decided." Ye Aya smiled wider, made a decision on her own, and looked up at the sky, "Shopkeeper Qu, I'll go back today and come back in a few days." ”
"Miss, you can't do anything about taking on the task." Shopkeeper Qu completely ignored the second half of Ye Aya's words, and followed her step by step to persuade her.
"Shopkeeper Qu, what Miss has decided can't be changed." The grit wandering spirit followed behind, and spit out a sentence quietly.
"Grit understands me." Ye Aya smiled and turned back to pat Sinking Sand's shoulder, and then turned back, just in time to meet the eyes of the owner who was sitting in the lobby drinking tea.
