035 - Not a single copper plate left

Seeing that the other party was deflated, Bai Lu returned to the truth and asked again: "What are you coming to Chi Wei for?" ”

Xi Xiao suddenly realized: "It turns out that the 'here' you just said refers to Chi Wei. ”

"Or else?"

"I think you asked why you came to your house."

yes, that's why she called him stupid.

Bai Lu asked, "You're not from Xiling?" ”

Xi Xiao was surprised: "How do you know?" ”

"On the day Xi Xiaolang stole the little girl's silver, the slave behind him was hired."

Xi Xiao was puzzled, "What about the hired?" ”

"The steward of the teahouse said that you wander the streets all day long, and there are no subordinates and no relatives."

Xi Xiao pouted, "Hmph, don't mention that black-hearted teahouse to Ye, they are trying to sell Ye to Gongyeyi's Lanyue Palace, damn it!" It's really damnable! ”

Bai Lu knocked on the table and reminded him not to divert the subject. "Tell me, what are you here for?"

Xi Xiao patted the skin of the melon seeds on his hand, dusted off his robe again, and said, "Why should I say it?" Hey, aren't you also from Xiling? ”

"You're not doing it yourself?"

Xi Xiao's thick eyebrows jumped, "What did I recruit?" ”

Bai Lu didn't answer and asked, "Who are you waiting for after wandering around the pool for so long?" ”

"Am I a soul? Still loitering? ”

"You can't be waiting for me."

"Osmanthus, are you listening to me?"

Bai Lu twisted her eyebrows and continued to say to herself: "Or are you not looking for someone...... Are you waiting for someone to come to you? ”

Xi Xiao stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Bai Lu's eyes, "Hey osmanthus, a big living person is sitting in front of you, can't you see it?" The way you ignore me really gives me the illusion that I might be a soul. ”

Bai Lu looked at the man's shining eyes and said, "Your father is really a famous corrupt official in the south?" ”

Xi Xiao said: "Why did you go back to this question again? ”

"Yes, or no?"

"Yes, it really is."

"Are you sure?"

Xi Xiao raised his hand to his head and said, "Sure, sure, I can still swear." ”

Bai Lu knocked off the hand he raised to his head, "You don't have to swear." Let's pay back the money I owe to the little girl first. ”

Xi Xiao blinked innocently, "Why did you talk about silver again?" But...... Forehead...... Nope. ”

"What's missing?"

"Silver, silver is gone."

Bai Lu: "......"

This silver is gone, I wonder if the immortal master will lock him up again?

Xi Xiao saw that Bai Lu's face was not very good, and hurriedly explained: "This can't be blamed on the master." ”

He leaned his handsome face forward and said, "Look, Osmanthus, after spending so many days in prison, you can still have such fine skin and tender meat, isn't it all earned by relying on the silver in your pocket?" ”

"Not a single copper plate left?"

"Nope. Even today's house accounts are recorded on your head by the shopkeeper. ”

Bai Lu's eyes gradually became gloomy, and the little hand on the table became a fist.

Only then did Xi Xiao realize the seriousness of the situation. I'm afraid that if he stays here any longer, he will have a bloody disaster.

Thinking of this, Xi Xiao immediately stood up and said, "That, little osmanthus, you are busy first, and the master will go back first, hehe." ”

When the words fell, he strode away.

Before dinner, Zuo Qiu Zhi returned.

Bai Lu put down the chopsticks in his hand, "Huh? Immortal Master, you have to come back early today, just in time to have dinner together. ”

Zuo Qiuzhi glanced at the two empty bowls on the table, and listened to the other party's tone, as if he didn't know that he would come back, but he still prepared his dishes and chopsticks.

"Before you go out this morning, you said you would wait for this seat."

"Ahh......h

"Something?" Zuo Qiu Zhi sat down along the table.

Bai Lu said: "Later, I want to ask the immortal master to accompany the little girl to the Zhao family." ”

"Zhao?"

Although Hu Luniang's case is over this time, only Yingge was beheaded. And the culprit, Xu Ben, was sentenced to 40 boards and expelled from Chi Wei because he deliberately hurt people but did not cause death. ”

Zuo Qiu Zhi knew that Bai Lu felt that Xu Ben had been sentenced lightly, and he explained: "Xiling's criminal law has never been very harsh. ”

Bai Lu said, "Yes, the Holy One rules the country with benevolence. However, Bai Lu remembered hearing from you that the Zhao family was crazy, and the reason for her madness was now unnoticed. ”

"Do you think Xu Ben did it?"

"Not to feel, but to affirm."

Zuo Qiu Zhi said: "Now that Xu Ben has been driven out of the pool, there is no way to know where the person is, whether he is dead or alive. If the donor still wants to hold him accountable for poisoning the Zhao family, I'm afraid it will be a little tricky. ”

Bai Lu shook her head, "The little girl knows, but the little girl still wants to go and see the Zhao family to see if her madness can be cured." ”

Zuo Qiu raised his eyebrows, "The donor knows how to heal?" ”

"Just knowing some incense recipes may be effective for madness."

"Okay."

Seeing that Zuoqiu Zhi looked like he was about to get up, Bai Lu hurriedly stopped him and said, "Immortal Master is not in a hurry. Let's eat first. ”

"Okay, let's eat, then."

Zuo Qiuzhi raised his hand to take the chopsticks, but stopped the moment he touched the chopsticks.

"Immortal Master, what's wrong?" Bai Lu asked.

"Nothing. It's just that I'm not used to using this chopstick. ”

Bai Lu instantly thought of the silver chopsticks tied to his legs after Zuoqiu helped him straighten his bones a few days ago.

"And how have you been eating lately?"

"With chopsticks." Zuo Qiuzhi sighed, "It's just that I'm not used to it yet." ”

"Or else...... The little girl will return the pair on her lap to you? ”

"Silver is good for taking moisture and good for the recovery of the benefactor."

Zuo Qiu took a sip of rice and said, "Let's eat." ”

Bai Lu nodded.
