Chapter 9: Scumbag!
Join? The female thief heard this word for the first time, and looked at Li Yunji with a confused expression.
Li Yunji said calmly: "The so-called joining, in short, is cooperation!" ”
"I can hand over the skewers and the recipes for all the dishes I will keep in the Immortal Pavilion in the future, but there is one condition, every time the Drunken Moon Mansion sells a dish, it must pay me one-third of its profit in return!"
"Correspondingly, in order to prevent the Drunken Moon Building from misreporting and concealing the report, I will send a deputy treasurer to supervise the daily accounts of the Drunken Moon Tower."
"Got it?"
Li Yunji's whimsical rhetoric made the female thief on the bed dizzy.
I saw that her brows were furrowed, and she still had an unknown expression on her face, which was in stark contrast to Li Yunji's slightly interesting face.
The two were at a stalemate for a moment before the female thief shook her head and said, "I don't understand." ”
Li Yunji immediately put away the smile on his face, sighed lightly and said, "I know, this concept is a little new to you. ”
"I'm not in a hurry anyway, I'll give you some time, you can think about it."
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the door, and when he was halfway there, he suddenly turned around and asked, "By the way, dare to ask the woman, the honorable name?" ”
The female thief, who still didn't know the situation, said muleng: "Yang, Yang Xiaoyu." ”
"Yang Xiaoyu."
After Li Yunji learned the name of the female thief, he looked thoughtfully at the jade pendant in his hand, and then walked out of the room.
Li Yunji walked to the backyard, sat on the steps of the backyard and muttered, "Yang Xiaoyu... How do you seem to have seen this name somewhere? ”
At noon, at the door of Liuxian Pavilion, a woman was walking in anxiously.
As soon as the woman entered the door, she found Lao Xie, who was busy with work, and asked, "Shopkeeper, have you ever seen a girl?" It's about that high..."
The voice of the search reached Li Yunji's ears, and listening to the woman's description, what she was looking for was Yang Xiaoyu upstairs.
Li Yunji got up and went to the lobby to check, and as soon as he showed his face, the woman recognized him.
"Li Gongzi! Are you here too? ”
Li Yunji looked at it, and it turned out to be Mei'er from Drunken Moon Tower!
"Miss Mei'er?" Li Yunji greeted, then glanced at Lao Xie and invited her to the backyard.
The two sat in the backyard and chatted.
Mei'er spoke first: "I never thought that Gongzi Li was actually the owner of Liuxian Pavilion, he was really young and promising." ”
Li Yunji said with a smile: "Miss Mei'er has won the award." Seeing her anxious look, she asked again, "Miss Mei'er is looking for Miss Xiaoyu, right?" ”
Mei'er said with some surprise: "Why is Gongzi Li...", and then suddenly his face sank and said, "Could it be that Gongzi Li already knows?" ”
Li Yunji nodded and said, "Don't worry, I didn't embarrass her." It's just that she broke her leg last night and is now recuperating in a private room. ”
After hearing this, Mei'er asked worriedly, "Broke your leg?!" What do you think? Isn't it serious?! ”
"Miss Mei'er don't worry, I've already asked Liu Yisheng to help her see it, it's fine."
Seeing that Li Yunji did not embarrass Yang Xiaoyu, Mei'er breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, this kid is also miserable..."
Li Yunji looked at Mei'er's melancholy appearance and realized that there might be something unspeakable hidden in it, so he asked, "Life is hard?" Where does this begin? ”
Mei'er hesitated, thinking that Yang Xiaoyu's matter had been exposed, and it was not good for her to ask for someone directly.
Maybe telling Li Yunji the truth can also make him feel some sympathy, and it is not necessary to let her go when the time comes.
Thinking of this, Mei'er sighed lightly and said: "Li Gongzi doesn't know that Xiaoyu came to Zuiyue Tower at the age of seventeen in order to provide her sweetheart with a study. ”
"Mother Liu saw that her conditions were good and her voice was sweet, so she accepted her as a courtesan."
"Li Gongzi also knows that in our business, you can't make a lot of money if you don't sell your body. Xiaoyu's hard-earned monthly money every month was given to that little white face. ”
"But who knew that the little white face was hit by the Jinshi a few days ago, and left without saying a word! It is said that he went to Zhongling City to become an official. ”
"We all persuaded Xiaoyu to forget him, it's not worth it for this kind of ungrateful stinky man! But she was as stubborn as a cow, and she had to go to the man! ”
"In order to redeem himself, Xiaoyu sang desperately day and night, but even so, it was far from enough money to redeem himself."
"Later, Mother Liu saw that Zuiyue Lou's business was robbed by Liuxian Pavilion, so she inadvertently said, 'If anyone can steal the recipe of Liuxian Pavilion, they will reward him with twenty taels of silver'."
"Everyone knows that it was Liu's mother's angry words, but Xiaoyu took it seriously! So..."
"Scumbag!" Without waiting for Mei'er to finish, Li Yunji scolded.
"Scumbag?"
Li Yunji looked at Mei'er with a puzzled face, and then reacted, and hurriedly explained: "I mean, that little white face is a scumbag!" ”
Mei'er nodded as if she didn't understand, and then said beggingly: "What about Li Gongzi, Xiaoyu?" …”
Of course, Li Yunji understood the reason why Mei'er told him this, so he comforted her and said, "Miss Mei'er don't worry, you can pick up Miss Xiaoyu later." ”
"It's just that I have something I want to ask you."
When Mei'er heard Li Yunji say this, she immediately smiled.
"Li Gongzi, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
"What's that little white face's name?"
Mei'er thought for a moment and said, "It seems to be called, Gu Feng." ”
Gu Feng?
Li Yunji remembered, wasn't the original owner of the house he lived in Gu Feng?
It means that when I heard Yang Xiaoyu's name just now, how familiar was it, when Li Yunji was cleaning the room, he found a dusty wooden box in a corner.
What was placed inside was the letter that Gu Feng had exchanged with Yang Xiaoyu.
Scumbag! It's scum!
cheating women out of money, not to mention, in the end, they abandoned people without saying a word, and abandoned them so completely that they didn't even leave a thought.
Gu Feng's operation made Li Yunji scream!
But now that the building is empty, there is no way to teach him a lesson for the time being.
It's just that Yang Xiaoyu is still young, if he is injured by this kind of scumbag, it is not worth it!
After thinking about it, Li Yunji finally made a decision.
This help, you have to help!
Li Yunji turned his head and looked at Mei'er with a righteous and awe-inspiring look and said, "Miss Mei'er, if you want to help Xiaoyu get out of the predicament, I have to bother you to come with me." ”
Li Yunji took Mei'er back to the mansion to get the wooden box, and then returned to Liuxian Pavilion non-stop.
In the private room, Yang Xiaoyu recognized the wooden box at a glance.
"This is Gu Lang's box, how can it be here with you?!"
Li Yunji did not answer, but raised the wooden box above his head and smashed it down.
"What are you doing!" Yang Xiaoyu shouted loudly.
Li Yunji leaned down and slowly picked up the letters scattered all over the place, and said helplessly: "Before Gu Feng left, he sold his mansion to me, and he didn't take any of it with this box and the letters inside. ”
Yang Xiaoyu looked at Li Yunji in disbelief and said, "Impossible, Gu Lang said that he would come to pick me up!" No way! ”
Li Yunji brought a brazier and threw the letter into it.
Yang Xiaoyu was so anxious when she saw this, this was the only contact she had with Gu Feng now, she didn't want to watch Li Yunji destroy these letters, she cried and begged: "Gongzi Li!" You give it back to me! I beg you! You don't burn! ”
Mei'er on the side looked at Yang Xiaoyu who was in tears, and hurriedly hugged her, trying to give her some comfort.
And Li Yunji completely ignored Yang Xiaoyu's begging, and set fire to all the letters in the brazier.
Yang Xiaoyu looked at the raging fire, and cried out heartbreakingly, if it wasn't for Mei'er pulling her, I'm afraid she would want to disappear with those letters at this moment.
After the storm, there is a long silence.
I don't know how long it took.
Li Yunji looked at Yang Xiaoyu, who was lying on Mei'er's shoulder, and sighed lightly: "The reason why I did this is that I hope you can break with the past and live your own life well!" ”
Yang Xiaoyu said with a hollow look in his eyes: "One knife and two cuts... It's not that easy. ”
"Actually, when he left, I already knew he didn't want me."
"I just wanted to find him and ask for a result in person."
Li Yunji shook his head and said, "Why do you have to be obsessed with a result? Didn't he already give you the result without saying goodbye? ”
"You treat him wholeheartedly, at least with a clear conscience!"
"It's that little white face! If I see him, I will have to teach him a hard lesson! ”
After Yang Xiaoyu listened, a trace of doubt flashed in his empty eyes.
"I met Li Gongzi Pingshui, why did you help me like this?"
Li Yunji was stunned by Yang Xiaoyu's question.
That's right! Why help her? Is it just because she's good-looking?
Mei'er on the side saw that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, and said: "That, Li Gongzi is an upright person, so naturally he can't see these hurtful things!" ”
Li Yunji took over and said, "Yes, yes! Like this kind of scoundrel, I'll clean up one of them! ”
Maybe he figured it out, Yang Xiaoyu actually showed a smile on his face after listening to Li Yunji's words.
"That's right! Look at you, how beautiful you look when you smile, why don't you have a strained face? Li Yunji quipped.
Yang Xiaoyu was a little embarrassed by Li Yunji's praise, and changed the topic: "Li Gongzi, I will definitely return the things I stole." ”
Li Yunji waved his hand and said, "It's okay, those things aren't worth a lot of money, but you, who broke your leg in my courtyard, I'm still a little guilty!" ”
"You just take care of your legs first, and the rest will be talked about later!"
After that, Li Yunji took out the fish-shaped jade pendant and handed it back to Yang Xiaoyu and said: "Since this pendant is your belongings, I'm afraid that I will lose it for you, so I will return it to you." ”
Seeing this, Mei'er hurriedly said to Yang Xiaoyu: "Thank you Li Gongzi soon!" ”
Yang Xiaoyu slowly took the jade pendant and said, "Thank you Gongzi Li." ”
Li Yunji smiled and said, "You're welcome, if there's nothing to do, I'll retire." ”
Then Li Yunji made a salute and walked out of the door.
Since being asked by Yang Xiaoyu just now, Li Yunji has been stunned, and on the way home, a question has been lingering in his mind.
"Why did I help her?"
When Li Yunji passed by the front of his house, a galloping carriage passed by him and ran in the direction of Dali Temple, and the carriage was sitting on the panicked Su Ling......
