Chapter 127: Cornered
Luo Shisan thought, no matter what, Xue Lengyu is just a weak woman who doesn't know martial arts, and now she is also in her own hands, and it is not appropriate to negotiate it, and it is not harmful to herself.
After carefully tying up Murong Haozezai, Luo 13 pushed him and Mu Nanzhen into the firewood room together.
Luo 13 was about to lock the firewood room, when Xue Lengyu suddenly said, "Wait." ”
"How?" Luo 13 turned around and asked.
Xue Lengyu said: "You only bind Murong Haoze, not Mu Nanzhen, aren't you afraid that she will untie Murong Haoze?" ”
Luo 13 was stunned, he was not at all defenseless against this weak woman.
Xue Lengyu picked up the remaining rope on the ground and handed it to Gu Bao: "At this time, it's better to be cautious." In case Murong Haoze escapes, I'm afraid we will have to be a companion on the Huangquan Road. ”
And I was afraid that I wanted to die at that time, and I was not so happy. Xue Lengyu firmly believed that if Murong Haoze regained his freedom, the first person to deal with would not be Luo Shisan, but himself.
Gu Bao glanced at Luo Shisan, and seeing that he had no objection, he entered the house with a rope. Mu Nanzhen's screams and Murong Haoze's angry shouts suddenly came from the room.
Xue Lengyu didn't want to go in to see the pair of hard-working mandarin ducks, so he said calmly outside: "Don't quarrel, you are still safe now, and when we discuss the best plan, we will give you an explanation." ”
No matter what, Xue Lengyu didn't want to kill them. Modern people's legal consciousness after studying for more than ten years told her that killing people is absolutely unacceptable. It is something that you must never do unless you have to do it as a last resort.
If you kill them, you will not know the ghosts, and in your life, I am afraid that it will be difficult to have peace of mind.
After tying up the two of them and pointing to the room with the lights on, Luo 13 said, "Please." ”
Xue Lengyu took a breath and straightened up, trying to make himself look a little energetic. can come up with kidnapping and blackmail, and then he is forced to be helpless, what kind of honest person can he be, and Luo Shisan is not soft-hearted.
Luo Thirteen walked in front and pushed open the door, and in the house, the woman who had spoken to Xue Lengyu earlier immediately pounced and said hurriedly: "Thirteen, how is it?" ”
Luo 13 closed the door and said, "It's okay, it's already cleaned up." ”
Gu Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, saw Xue Lengyu, and was stunned for a moment: "Thirteen, this is ......"
Luo 13 pointed at Gu Zhen: "I'm insider." ”
"Sister-in-law Luo, hello." Xue Lengyu said. This woman looks like the man who is honest and does his duty, and calls Luo Thirteen's brother-in-law.
Gu Zhen hurriedly smiled at Xue Lengyu, which was a greeting. His eyes were looking at Luo Thirteen again, waiting for him to explain.
Luo 13 didn't hurry to speak, and looked into the room: "Min'er and Dad, are they sleeping?" ”
"All asleep." Gu Zhen said: "Min'er slept heavily and couldn't wake up." The medicine that my father drank had a calming effect on himself, and it was not easy to wake up. ”
It seems that this man does not have a wife, children and parents, Xue Lengyu listened, and his heart became more stable, and a man with a family has concerns, and many things are not so impulsive, and he is often better at talking.
Reaching out and rubbing the faint pain on the back of his neck, Xue Lengyu sat on the chair, thinking about what to say about this matter.
Luo 13 watched Xue Lengyu's movements, understood that his palm was a little heavier, and said, "I'm sorry, it's heavy, forgive me." ”
said that he was sorry, but in Luo Thirteen's tone, he didn't mean to apologize. said that even if he knew that Xue Lengyu and the Murong family also had new and old hatreds, but who this Xue Lengyu was, he didn't know in his heart.
Xue Lengyu smiled indifferently: "I can't blame you, it's my own bad luck, when is it not good, but I went to find Mu Nanzhen at that time." ”
It's strange, at this time, Xue Lengyu won't say this strange word. Weighing the pros and cons, at this time, for Luo Thirteen, it is still necessary to focus on wooing and consoling.
Luo 13 smiled: "I like a smart woman who knows the times, this girl, I don't know what to call it?"
Luo Thirteen's smile was the most frank smile Xue Lengyu had seen in such a long time, and he was relieved to know that he finally had a little appreciation for himself. said frankly: "My name is Xue Lengyu, and I want to help you." ”
"Help us?" Luo 13 was stunned for a moment, and then he didn't know what expression to give, so he could only say, "Miss Xue, how do you want to help us." ”
Xue Lengyu smiled: "I heard you talk about it occasionally, and I know that you are also ordinary people who want to live a good life, and the reason why you take risks is because you were forced by the Murong family to do it." If you have any difficulties, please tell us and see if I can help. ”
Luo 13 twisted his eyebrows and looked at Xue Lengyu, not saying good, nor saying bad.
Xue Lengyu said again: "I don't know martial arts, and now it's up to you to kill or release." Anyway, I already know your names and looks, so if I know more, it won't be a big problem. What's more, the matter of arresting Murong Haoze is now counted as my share, what kind of hatred he has for me, you can also see it, even if I run away, I will not report myself myself. ”
In the face of a thoughtful person like Luo Shisan, Xue Lengyu's idea was very simple, put all the facts on the table and give him a choice.
Luo Shisan looked at Xue Lengyu for a while, and couldn't see through the woman in front of him, but he also felt that she was no threat to him, so he said, "What are you capable of?" ”
Xue Lengyu said with a smile: "What skills I have, it depends on what difficulties you encounter." ”
This is said to be big, but if it is not big, how can it make Luo 13 feel unfathomable.
Luo 13 didn't speak, but Gu Ding said, "Brother-in-law, just tell Miss Xue about our affairs." I look at Miss Xue, but it's really unusual. ”
Gu Bao is an honest man, he has never met such a calm and caring girl, and he doesn't want to really take the step of killing people and setting fires, hearing Xue Lengyu so confident that he can help them, he can't help but hold a glimmer of hope.
He naively thought that as long as they could solve the difficulties in the family, they would send Murong Haoze and Mu Nanzhen back, coerce and lure, and make them dare not say what happened today, so that they are their own family. You can still live a good life.
Luo 13 knew that his wife and brother were a little muna, but what he said was in his heart, and after thinking about it, he said: "Okay, Miss Xue, since you are also an enemy of the Murong family, we won't hide it from you." ”
Everyone has seen it, and the name is known, but it is meaningless to hide it.
Luo 13 said: "Miss Xue doesn't go on the street very much, so she doesn't know me, my father-in-law is the shopkeeper of the New Leaf Tea House on the street." ”
"New Leaf Tea House?" Xue Lengyu frowned and thought for a while, and suddenly said, "I know, is it the one on the edge of the Fuyuan Inn?" ”
"Exactly." Luo Thirteen Dao.
Xue Lengyuqi said: "That tea house, although I haven't been in, but I glanced outside, the scale is not small, the location is good, it should be a good business, why don't you stop...... To this day this is less. ”
Luo 13 said: "The business of the tea house is indeed very good, my father-in-law's family is honest and trustworthy, and the business of the tea house is handed down from the ancestors, with historical origins." Although our family's life is not very rich, it is also very beautiful. ”
"It's all to blame on that Murong Haoxuan." Gu Zhen answered, and said hatefully: "Originally, everyone did their own business and made their own money, and it didn't get in the way of anyone. It can be that the Murong family wants to monopolize the tea market in Mozambique, and during this time, on the one hand, they actually control the purchase channels of high-end tea, and on the other hand, they sell it at a low price in his store. He who should sell for three taels, he sells one tael. There are no more old customers outside, and no one wants to spend more money. ”
"I see." Xue Lengyu said: "The store you forced Murong Haoxuan to can't be opened, and there is no livelihood, so you will take risks and think of kidnapping." ”
Although Murong Haoxuan's approach really disrupted the market a bit and lost the kindness of businessmen, it was a little unreasonable to kidnap Jing and stay away for this.
Gu Zhen sighed: "If that's really the case, then that's fine." Our family has been doing business all year round, and we still have some savings, so we have already packed our luggage, and we plan to give the store to Murong's family and go back to our hometown, but ......"
"What's going on?" Xue Lengyu said, "Could it be that Murong Haoxuan is unwilling to let you go?" Probably not......"
Although Murong Haoxuan is a very annoying man, but when he does business, everyone is willing to give up, and there is still a reason to kill everything.
Gu Zhen's expression was a little sad, and he sighed: "It's not that Murong Haoxuan is unwilling to let us go, his purpose is to dictate the tea market, and he is naturally happy if we are leaving, but my father ...... My father has run a tea house for three generations, and this new leaf tea house is a condensation of his life's hard work and sweat. ”
Xue Lengyu nodded, very, very understanding. Not to mention the career that has condensed a lifetime of hard work, even if it is now a country and a city, if something goes wrong and can't go on, she will be very sad and sad, and the country and the city are just her ten days and half a month's hard work.
Gu Zhen said: "My father is very sick, he used a few ginseng for thousands of years, and his life was finally saved, and the doctor said that there was no danger to his life, but this day, he still can't cut off the medicine." Now we are back to our hometown, planting some fields can barely survive, but we can't afford my father's medicine, and the road is far away, my father is now this body, we have old and young, so can withstand long-distance travel. ”
Xue Lengyu listened and let out a long sigh. This kind of thing can touch her heart the most, in her opinion, Gu Zhen's family must be extremely filial, otherwise how could they be willing to spend all their savings for the old man's medical treatment.
Seeing the sympathy on Xue Lengyu's face, Luo Shisan said: "Miss Xue, we are young, and it doesn't hurt to suffer a little, but the old man and the child, so bear to let them suffer from hunger and cold, if we are really desperate, how can we do such a thing." ”
Xue Lengyu couldn't help nodding his head when he said this, as early as when Mu Wangfu was in the palace, people and herself could bend and beg and didn't care about it, but they didn't want to watch Xue's father and Xue mother salute Shuli, because they couldn't see the old man groveling. I can't see that they have given so much, but they still have to suffer with themselves.
Xue Lengyu's expression didn't look like he was pretending, Luo Shisan felt a little bottom in his heart, and said tentatively: "Miss Xue just said, you can help us, but I don't know what to do." ”
Xue Lengyu admitted this question, frowned and thought about it, and said, "Is your store out now?" ”
"Not yet." Luo 13 said: "Although the location of that store is good, Murong Haoxuan knows that we have to sell it, so the price given is very low." Later, we thought of such a method, and the matter of selling the store was delayed. ”
"That's good." Xue Lengyu said: "If the store is not sold, I will help you reopen the store." ”
"Reopening the store?" Gu Zhen was stunned: "Miss Xue, you are also in business?" ”
Xue Lengyu said: "Yes, I am also in business, and I opened my own small shop." But I think that doing business is very different, and everything is the same, although I don't make tea, but I know how to sell it, and that's it. ”
Luo Thirteen's eyes flashed with a light that no one noticed. Said slowly: "With Murong Haoxuan monopolizing the market like this, I don't know if Miss Xue can bring our business back to life." ”
"Well...... This is a problem...... "Xue Lengyu tilted his head and looked out of the heavy window seriously, but saw Luo Thirteen's figure flashing, and suddenly came to his side, and was about to speak, but his shoulder was numb, and he couldn't move.
Xue Lengyu opened his mouth in shock, but he couldn't make a sound. looked at Luo 13 angrily, this time she was really a good person in vain, she still pitied them, so hard to think of a way for them.
"Thirteen, what are you doing here?" Gu Zhen also exclaimed.
Luo Shisan's face was calm: "Zhen'er, do you think that when our store is reopened, can there be any way to beat Murong Haoxuan?" ”
"Isn't Miss Xue trying to figure out a way?" Gu Zhen was in a hurry and stopped in front of Luo Thirteen: "Thirteen, Miss Xue wants to help us, you can't hurt her." ”
Luo 13 looked at his wife, and his face softened: "Zhen'er, you don't plan to hurt Miss Xue. ”
"And what are you doing here?" Gu Zhen is even more strange.
Xue Lengyu heard Luo 13 say this, and looked at him strangely. I don't know if it's a good thing to say in front of my wife.
Luo 13 said: "I just don't want Miss Xue to get in the way of our affairs, and I don't want to affect her." ”
"So?" Gu Bao stayed aside, he was also nervous to death just now, and as soon as Luo Thirteen made a move, he came up and hugged his brother-in-law, and now when he heard him say this, he was also surprised.
Luo 13 said: "Miss Xue wants to help us reopen the store, this method treats the symptoms but not the root cause, which is naturally well-intentioned and good." But do you think it's possible? ”
