Chapter 224: Catching a Big Mouse
Looking coldly at the guy who was crying bitterly, Gu Jinfeng opened lightly, "Do you know that if you return empty-handed tonight, he will let you go, no matter what the result is, you won't be able to do it in Anrentang." β
Hearing Gu Jinfeng's words, the man knelt there with confused eyes.
"So what do I do...... I still have a family to support. β
Seeing his confusion in his eyes, Gu Jinfeng did not sympathize with him at all, the poor person must have something to hate, since he chose to come, it means that he has accepted the arrangement of the manager, what is the use of begging here now?
Seeing a man crying sadly, Meng Huan still felt a lot, and raised his eyes to look at Gu Jinfeng.
"Can you ......?"
"No, you can't."
Without waiting for Meng Huan to finish speaking, Gu Jinfeng refused with righteous words.
Meng Huan touched the bridge of his nose in embarrassment, "You don't even know what I'm going to say, what are you doing in such a hurry?" β
"Everybody thought you'd intercede for him." Qi Ling rolled his eyes angrily, "He's from An Rentang, even if you intercede for him, the people over there will deal with him." β
"But ......" Meng Huan scratched his head and sighed deeply, "He's also pitiful." β
"I'm also pitiful, please think about it for me!" Qi Ling couldn't stand it and pointed at himself, his eyes widened and he complained, "I'm busy for the hospital all day long, and I have to feed these mouths, my little woman is also very pitiful, it's better for you to pity me, don't want your salary?" β
"Of course not!"
Taking a step back suddenly, Meng Huan clutched his purse and looked at Qi Ling like a thief.
"This is my hard-earned money, don't you want to worry about it!"
Is it easy for him to run around outside? In the end, the money in his pocket will be remembered by others, why should he be sad!
Seeing Meng Huan's stiff face, Gu Jinfeng shook his head helplessly, "What she means is that your sympathy is too overflowing, you have to know how to restrain it." β
However, Qi Ling also understood that if Meng Huan's compassion could be restrained, she would not choose to help the world and save people.
"Or Jinfeng understands me." Qi Ling showed a bright smile to Gu Jinfeng, and turned his head to Meng Huan is fierce god, "Where is it like you, you will only send out silver!" β
Every time I see that the poor have no money for treatment, they are paying money to others, which is really unbearable, if Fushoulou is not supported by her, I am afraid that it would have been defeated by Meng Huan long ago!
Knowing that he was at fault, Meng Huan laughed embarrassedly twice, but his hands were still tightly covering his purse, and he did not relax at all.
Seeing his virtue, Qi Ling couldn't wait to go up and slap him twice.
"So what are you going to do with this person?" Qi Ling lifted his chin at the man.
Gu Jinfeng took a deep look at the guy at his feet, pondered for a moment, and finally made a decision.
"Lock him in the firewood room first, and then send him back tomorrow when Anrentang opens its doors to welcome guests."
Hearing this, the guy breathed a sigh of relief, knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing.
Catching a glimpse of the injury on his forehead, Qi Ling frowned, "Don't knock, be careful of the wound on your head, Xiao Liu, you go to the counter and bring the golden medicine to him to put on it, look at the strange cautious person." β
"Okay, boss."
Xiaoliu ran to get the medicine, and the guy was taken to the firewood room.
No matter what, at least he doesn't need to see the official, this is already Gu Jinfeng's greatest mercy.
In the early morning of the next day, before Anrentang opened to welcome guests, Steward Hu was already waiting in the back hall, pacing back and forth with his brows tightly locked, looking up at the door from time to time, as if he was waiting for someone.
After waiting for a while, I didn't see the person who was waiting for appear, so I lifted the curtain and walked to the front hall, and directly dragged a cleaning guy to ask.
"I ask you, what about the Huazi people? Why hasn't he come to work yet? β
The guy who was asked looked sincerely frightened, looked around, and didn't see Huazi's figure, which was also a little strange.
"I don't know if it's a little one, Huazi has already come here at this time on weekdays, maybe it's a late start, right?"
Seeing his confused expression, Manager Hu felt annoyed, and waved his hand directly to drive people away.
"Fuck off, I don't know, what's the use of asking you for these wastes!"
The guy who was let go ran away as soon as he slipped away, and he didn't understand how Huazi provoked the Hu Pipe, and it was not pleasant to find someone early in the morning, so it was better to avoid him today.
After looking around for a while, Huazi was nowhere to be seen, and the Hu steward was even more impatient, and his palms kept patting the counter.
"Why hasn't this man come yet?"
People have been out since last night, and they haven't returned all night, and Hu Guan is always up and down in his heart, for fear that something will happen, and his brain has been tense until now.
"Can you still be arrested?"
Steward Hu guessed carefully, but quickly dismissed the idea.
"If they are caught, they will definitely report to the police."
But now I haven't received a report from the yamen, is it ......
The hurried footsteps paused abruptly, and the steward suddenly raised his head, his eyes flashing with a cold light.
"He took the books and ran away?"
He shook his head again, pacing back and forth, "No, no, the account book is of little use to him." β
"Where the hell have the people gone?!"
After thinking about it for a while, I couldn't figure out where Huazi had gone, and Steward Hu was even more anxious.
Just when the steward couldn't hold back his anger, the little guy who was cleaning the faΓ§ade suddenly ran in, and his finger pointed in the direction of the door.
"Hu, Hu, Huazi is back!"
"Back?!"
Steward Hu was ecstatic, just took a step and took it back, squinting at the little guy's slightly flustered face, feeling that something was wrong.
"Huazi is back, why are you so flustered?"
"Yes, yes......"
The little girl shook his hand and pointed out the door, and just as he was about to say something, there was a low cry from a female voice.
"Let's send Huazi back!"
In front of everyone's eyes, Qi Ling and Gu Jinfeng slowly stepped into the door of An Rentang, and behind them was Huazi, who was tied up by five flowers.
Seeing Huazi who was tied into zongzi, the guys in Anrentang couldn't help but discuss, they were still sent back by Fushoulou opposite, what happened?
Steward Hu's face changed instantly, and he looked at Huazi with wide eyes, "This, what the hell is going on?!" β
Catching a glimpse of the guy who was doing things together pointing at him, Huazi felt very uncomfortable, and tried to shrink his shoulders, eager to find a crack in the ground to get into.
Qi Ling's black eyes, who were standing there generously, were covered with a layer of coldness, and his cold eyes shot straight at the dumb and stunned Hu Guan Shi, and a trace of ridicule flashed at the corner of his mouth.
"Steward Hu, this sentence, we should ask you, right?"
The momentum of controlling everything suddenly exploded, and Qi Lingsen's cold aura burst out in an instant, forcing the Hu Guan on the opposite side.
"Last night we slept in Zhengxiang, but somehow, there was a thief in the house, and if he didn't steal money or medicinal herbs, he rushed to the account book on the cabinet."
