Chapter 11: Suspicion

Bai Zhantang was about to turn around and continue to greet the guests, when he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

I thought carefully about what Li Li showed just now.

The clothes had been washed, but Bai Zhantang still felt as if he had smelled a smell of blood that was so strong that it couldn't be dissipated, and the source of this bloody smell was the knife on Li Li's waist.

Bai Zhantang's name of stealing saints is not for nothing, although he is now comfortable, but his years of experience in walking the rivers and lakes are not so easy to forget.

According to his intuition just now, Li Li must not have asked for leave to go out for a little personal matter.

From Li Li's body, Bai Zhantang also smelled the smell of money, and there must have no less than two hundred taels of silver on his body, including silver tickets.

Bai Zhantang dares to guarantee his years of experience.

After Li Li went back and changed his clothes, he brought some scattered silver taels, which were only about five taels.

Coming to the door of Tong Xiangyu's room, Li Li knocked on the door.

"Here we go."

After Tong Xiangyu replied inside, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Li Li standing at the door.

Tong Xiangyu looked at Li Li who appeared in front of his door, and was happy for less than two seconds, and his face immediately fell.

"You kid still know to come back!"

"Shopkeeper, didn't I have some unexpected situation."

"Forget it! In your absence, the store's revenue doubled. I don't know how happy I am! ”

"I'm wrong in the shopkeeper, you just forgive me for the sake of my lack of merit and hard work!"

Tong Xiangyu glanced at Li Li and said, "Come in!" ”

Come into the house.

Tong Xiangyu asked, "Say it!" What the hell is going on! Why did you come back so late? Even if you want to leave, bring a letter! ”

Li Li took out the silver that had been prepared a long time ago and put it on the table.

"Shopkeeper, I know that I ate a little more, and I also read the previous account books of the store, and I also know that the store was more or less profitable before I came.

But since I came, the revenue in the store has not been enough to make a single month.

Thinking about it, I don't want to go. You can only turn guilt into appetite. ”

Tong Xiangyu glared at Li Li when he heard this, "Hmm~"

"Oh, oh, it's guilt that I can't swallow. In the end, I made up my mind to go out and make some money, and give the shopkeeper a subsidy for the loss caused by eating too much.

It's not. Li Li pointed to the silver on the table.

Tong Xiangyu looked at the silver on the table, and there were as many as five taels of scattered silver. Looking at Li Li, he hasn't experienced much wind and frost, and his skin is much fairer and rudder than before.

Li Li saw that Tong Xiangyu had been staring at his face.

"Shopkeeper, I was born with it. You can't be born with a tan, and you can't envy it. ”

Tong Xiangyu looked at Li Li suspiciously, "Born? Is it really not maintained with anything? ”

"Really! Shopkeeper, then I'll go down to work first. ”

"Go ahead! Hey, wait. Tong Xiangyu stopped Li Li and picked up the five taels of silver on the table, "You should first use this money..." Keep it with me. I'll give it back to you when I'm sure I'm going to go out for a walk. ”

Li Li glanced at him, "I've heard my mother say this many times, do you guess I believe it?" ”

"Good! You kid hasn't seen you for a few days and you've learned to choke. Be careful that I deduct your monthly money. ”

"Shopkeeper, I haven't even seen what the monthly money looks like."

Tong Xiangyu also remembered that he had indeed not given Li Li a monthly payment, "When you go down to work, be sharp, if you dare to be lazy, I will deduct your rations." ”

As soon as Li Li went downstairs, he was beckoned by Bai Zhantang.

Li Li asked suspiciously, "What's the matter, Big Brother Bai?" ”

Bai Zhantang put the rag on his shoulder on Li Li's shoulder, "It's nothing, I just remembered to find Xiao Guo for something." It's just when you're back, help me hold on for a while. ”

"Okay, come back soon!"

Before Li Li could finish speaking, Bai Zhantang entered the backyard in a few steps.

Just as Li Li was busy greeting the guests, Bai Zhantang came to Guo Furong.

And Guo Furong is carrying out daily firewood chopping tasks.

"Hey, Xiao Guo."

"What's the matter, Lao Bai." Guo Furong heard Bai Zhantang's voice and asked without raising her head.

Bai Zhantang looked at the curtain leading to the lobby from time to time, as if he was a thief, forgetting that he was originally a thief.

"Xiao Guo, don't be busy yet. I'll ask you something. ”

Bai Zhantang pulled Guo Furong into the alley.

"Let it go!" Guo Furong shook off Bai Zhantang and grabbed her wrist, "I can't see it." Lao Bai, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person! You finally can't hold back the beast in your heart, and you're going to attack this girl?

It's no wonder that this girl is naturally beautiful and comes out of the water hibiscus.

But if you want to attack this girl, ask my platoon ~ mountain ~ "

"Sunflower Point Caveman!"

Bai Zhantang directly pointed at Guo Furong.

"Guo Furong, I warn you! I'm not interested in you at all. Don't do it again! Or you're going to stay here! I just wanted to ask you something.

Understood, blinked. ”

Guo Furong blinked.

"Sunflower Acupuncture Practitioner!"

Bai Zhantang just wanted to ask, but was stopped by Guo Furong reaching out.

"Don't ask. I don't love it, I haven't moved my heart, you're a good person! I'm going to go back to work first, or I'll have to work here for a few more years. ”

After Bai Zhantang listened, he covered his head. What the hell is going on in her head!

"Stop! Wait, what did you just say! I haven't asked yet? ”

"Alright! I'm not kidding you anymore. Say, what do you want to ask? "Didn't make it to Bai Zhantang, Guo Furong said unhappily.

Bai Zhantang looked left and right, and asked Guo Furong in a low voice, "What do you think of Li Li?" ”

Guo Furong asked suspiciously, "What are you asking for?" ”

"You answer me first!"

"Oh. Think about it. Li Li is a very diligent worker, but he eats more than average, not more than ten people. And he doesn't do as much work as ten people, and if I were the shopkeeper, I would have fired him.

Judging from these few contacts, this person is very kind and can talk to anyone.

It's okay, it's not the kind that is particularly good-looking, but it makes people feel very clean at first glance. But not the type I like.

Overall, a nice guy. Leaving something to him will be very reassuring. ”

After Bai Zhantang listened to Guo Furong's words, the doubts in his heart were also a little shaken.

Unwillingly, he asked, "You didn't notice anything wrong?" ”

Guo Furong said angrily: "Hey! It's only been a long time since I've been here! I've not been in contact with him as long as you. ”

"You don't want to think about it again?"

Guo Furong thought about it for a long time, and suddenly slapped Bai Zhantang on the arm.

"I thought about it."

"Oops~ Do you think of it, is it necessary to give me this."

"Don't interrupt me. Speaking of strange places, I did find one. According to my observations, this Li Li should not have practiced any martial arts. But anyone who has practiced martial arts will be more or less different from normal people.

Either this Li Li doesn't know martial arts, or his martial arts have entered the level of returning to the basics.

And this is just a testament to his anomaly.

You think, a person who doesn't know martial arts. A goose feather knife worth no less than 100 taels will be hung in the room. ”

"Wild goose feather knife? How do you know? ”

"What do you think! When I was a kid, I used to think of the six doors as if I were my own backyard. ”

Bai Zhantang thought for a moment, "Okay, it's okay." Go back and chop wood. ”

After driving Guo Furong back to chop wood, Bai Zhantang leaned against the wall, touched his chin, and whispered: "The more you think about it, the more suspicious it becomes." ”
