Chapter 40: The Last Side
Li Bei didn't seem to know me anymore, and he took his short sword to slaughter animals and crossed my neck.
Who do you say he is, he flooded my inn and kidnapped me.
Xiao Yu ran over, and when she saw this scene, her nervousness overflowed.
Li Bei, if you let my mother go, I will intercede with my uncle, otherwise......
I'm going to let the ice melt slowly, knock the inn down, and drown you all!"
Crazy, no one in our inn offended him, even if there were, there were so many innocent people, why didn't he dare to deal with that person directly.
What he hijacked.
However, I can't think of any way I offended him.
Wen Guan, since you lived in my house for two days, I haven't had a good life, you have made me miserable, why do you live freely, but I have to suffer, I will kill you, so that I will not be wronged.
I didn't understand what he was saying.
You know.
He, because he was called to the government, was identified as a suspect, and was excluded by the villagers, he had a bad relationship with Qiuyue, everyone in the village knew it, and some people rumored that he was because of cuckolding, he was naturally aggrieved, uncomfortable, depressed for too long, and gradually went crazy.
But what does that have to do with me?
I really don't understand, did I wronged him?
Of course, if he was reasonable, he wouldn't have done it.
A person who is considered to be a murderer, he is wronged, he is not crazy, where to run, that is, me, I have no heart and no lungs.
What if he hadn't been wronged and deliberately did so, pretending to be pitiful and gaining our sympathy and trust.
You can't even look at him in the eyes.
Let's not beat around the bush, the big man speaks quickly, don't you just want to go away and fly high, say it, how much do you want, I'll give it to you.
Qiu Yu heard me say this, didn't come, slowly retreated, retreated, you probably guessed what he was going to do, yes, he was going to the window.
However, Li Bei also noticed.
Stop, no one is allowed to move, and whoever moves, I will drown.
What a pity. I don't know martial arts.
However, Xiaoyu and I learned a few self-defense techniques.
Li Bei's lower abdomen was punched hard by me, I was able to get out, he was in unbearable pain, but he still insisted on grabbing me, this time I was not in his hands, Xiaoyu had no worries, rushed over and pressed him to the ground.
Do you think you can send him to the government to wait for his fate?
When Qiu Yu held him down, I also felt that it was finally time to solve it.
However.
The window suddenly opened, and an arrow shot at me, Qiu Yu blocked it with a sword, and another, two, and three were all shot down by him, but Li Bei picked it up, not to me, nor to Xiaoyu, but to himself.
Li Bei!
Zhang Zhenzhen held the child and called him at the door, the child was crying in her arms, Zhang Zhenzhen was soaked, trembling, and about to fall, just holding on.
Zhenzhen, give me the child.
Will you hug?
At this time, she still questioned me.
I have three younger brothers, of course I will, give it to me, don't fall.
You're going to rob my baby!
You don't know what to say?
This is my child, fall to death with you and do it, you stay away from me, it's not you, my man won't be like this, it's you, the murderer, who killed us!
She only cares about slandering me, Li Bei's life was saved by Qiu Yu. Just now, as you saw, Li Bei almost pierced the arrow into his throat, Qiu Yu grabbed it in time, grabbed it, and threw it out of the window, and at the same time, tied Li Bei's arm behind his back, but Li Bei seemed to be born with divine power, the rope broke, and both of them fell to the ground. Li Bei stood up and ran out, Qiu Yu pulled his robe, Li Bei, who was only wearing a middle coat, came to arrest me again, and the two catchers quickly subdued him, and Lu Shang also came, caring and comforting me.
The water from the ice cubes is slowly melting.
The shouting of the two of them just now had already alarmed the people on the three floors, but as you saw just now, everyone was just watching the excitement and talking about us. When you really need help, you close the door.
Wouldn't it be good for everyone to work together to get the ice out?
Not good.
This is our inn's business, and our inn guys deserve to work hard.
I didn't even help, because I was called to court.
Lu Cheng looked at me: You say, what's the matter.
I recounted it, and he asked again: Li Bei, whether what Wen Guan said is true.
I'm going to kill her, bribe me with money, so I don't tell her that she's a murderer.
I said loudly: The women did not say this, please find out.
She said it, and I heard it clearly.
Lu Cheng: The people in the hall must not make noise!
My lord, he slandered the people's women, please ask the adults to be the people's women, the year before last, you have found out that I am not the murderer, but I am still found to be a murderer, I am not subject to such grievances.
Adult, she lied, she kept threatening me with my son's life Don't say that I saw her kill Qiuyue, I, I'm miserable, I really can't help it, beg the adults to be the masters of the grass people.
I watched him kowtow and wanted to kick him out with both feet1
When did I threaten you, time, place, please repeat what I said, I should be very impressed to hurt you like this.
It's right at my house.
Oh, is Rei at home?
Absence.
Oh, do you think I won't threaten you while Rui Rui is here, or, you know I threatened you to let Rui leave in advance, or, you guys are here today and don't let Rui know about it. If I'm not mistaken, Rui Rui, be with Zhang Lulu. You handed Rui Rui to Zhang Lulu to watch, and came over to transport ice cubes with a two-year-old child, if I guessed correctly, the person who helped you carry ice cubes is the murderer!
No.
Who's that.
Yes, it's you, Wen Guan. Don't think that your ridiculous reasoning can deceive us all.
Then you say, where is Rui Rui, and where is Zhang Lulu.
Look at Lu Cheng, what do you think of me, your eyes are that you are the marquis of the county, you will try the case, you can sit down.
I didn't see it, so I continued to interrogate Li Bei.
Li Bei pretended to ask Zhang Zhenzhen: Do you know?
Zhang Zhenzhen was speechless, her expression was very strange, and the sleeping child seemed to be awakened by her, crying.
Zhang Zhenzhen coaxed the child and didn't say anything.
The two of you don't know Zhang Lulu, and you don't know Rui Rui, but you can still come to my inn to make trouble, I don't believe that any parent in the world will be like this.
They all had nothing to say.
You've seen the mental activity, and if it weren't for the presence of the officials, they would have run away a long time ago.
However, he didn't say spare his life, he just stood like that, and let Lu Cheng send someone to put him in a cell. Like marionettes.
Closed for fifteen days.
Zhang Zhenzhen is locked up in a special cell.
Lu Cheng will lock up pregnant women, lactating women, the elderly, children, etc., which he built twenty years ago, and can accommodate 100 people, and the chances of these special groups of people breaking the law are not very high, but they are prepared.
I don't want to say anything to Zhang Zhenzhen, because I know that we just can't be friends.
I came to the street, thought about it, and then remembered the direction of the inn, which I could find with my eyes closed.
Lu Cheng sent someone to find Zhang Lulu, I still don't worry, what if it's not what I guessed, Li Bei and Zhang Zhenzhen didn't say anything, I think they concealed something particularly serious.
Before I knew it, I had arrived at the inn.
Zhang Zhangying came out: Shopkeeper, you are back, guest, guest......
I said calmly: it's all gone.
You listen to me, not to ask, but to state, to explain, that I am numb, acceptable, falling, and getting up again.
No, they, they're not leaving.
My face was full of question marks.
They are waiting for you to come back and compensate.
I'm still covered with question marks.
Shopkeeper, go in quickly, Brother Li and your friends can't resist.
Friend, Zhang Lulu?
Green!
On the first floor, Zhang Lulu is holding the child, and on the left is sitting his husband, and then Rui Rui.
Rui Rui is really with Zhang Lulu.
Aunt Guan, Brother Qiuyu.
Help your uncle with something. Rui Rui, how many days have you been with your cousin?
It's been three days, Aunt Green.
Yes, I told your mother that I would send you here as agreed, but the person was gone.
Don't lie to me, I know that my mother and Uncle Li are in prison, and I heard them talking.
Ten-year-old Rui Rui is much more mature than when she was eight years old, maybe she became an older sister.
I'm sorry, Aunt Guan, they have caused you trouble, and I will make amends to you on their behalf.
It's not you who is at fault, no need to apologize.
Aunt Guan, this time I came to see Brother Xiaoyu for the last time.
I was taken aback.
Zhang Lulu explained: Rui Rui said that she saw Qiuyu for the last time.
I wasn't surprised that she said the wrong thing, because I understood what it meant.
Why? Rui Rui, if you want, you can live at Aunt Guan's house.
It's true!
Rui Rui shouted excitedly.
For a moment, it was quiet.
Still can't.
How?
I......
Wen Guan, don't talk here, do you think you can ignore us like this? This child's father almost flooded the inn, we were scared to death, they were locked up, you have to compensate. We also know that it has nothing to do with you, who made you the shopkeeper.
The man who spoke looked about the same age as my father, with a big belly, you see how unreasonable he looked.
I'm talking to my child, please shut up. Rui Rui, you say, why.
I......
Do you want to leave us alone and not be afraid that we will never come again?
Do you think that this shopkeeper will invite you, if I am not lazy, I will open ten inns.
You're so capable of opening a brothel. Your eldest uncle is a county marquis, and your second uncle likes to go shopping, and he happens to do business, don't you think?
It's uncle, you want to go shopping yourself, I don't think you're even fifty, isn't it that the aunt is too lenient for you, you want to go out and have fun, I'm afraid that the aunt will scold you.
She dared to scold me, she ...... Hey, how do you talk, who's having fun. There are a few people in Songren County who are married to the same aunt as your father. The pot calling the kettle black. The crow landed on the pig.
My mother's family is peaceful, my three younger brothers are very filial, my three aunts serve my mother carefully, there are no chickens and dogs in our family, this is a blessing, and how our family is, how my father is, you are not qualified to evaluate. However, there is one thing you are right. I'm the shopkeeper, and if something goes wrong with the inn, I'm responsible. However, the guests made trouble, it has nothing to do with me, I dealt with it as soon as possible, the ice was carried away, the water did not spread, and all the guests did not get a drop, as for you, you said that it was scared, if it was a child, I could coax it, adult, do you want me to coax? Coaxing is okay, not in vain.
Li Cheng: Everyone should go back to the room, go home, go home, order food, the new dishes have been tasted, everyone wants to eat and sign up quickly, the first 100 people will eat for free.
Do you want to ask, why don't regular customers who taste food often stay at the inn? Because they are my special customers, they never come, but I personally go to invite. Moreover, the number of tens is not fixed. However, I was glad that none of the old guests I had personally selected were suspicious of me, and the inn came to comfort me when it was down, saying that my inn was open and that I was willing to taste new dishes.
This Li Cheng, it's free without my consent, a hundred ways, is it easy for me to make money?
But when he said it, what else could I say, anyway, it's not that it's not free.
This is a very useful phrase.
Originally, they were rushing for my dishes, and they were always full of expectations for my dishes, including the year the inn collapsed.
There were few troublemakers, so the uncle who started the first couldn't stay, so I left him to taste the new dishes, and he insisted on leaving.
