Seeing the uncle's reaction, Xia Ning keenly sensed that this uncle should have a good relationship with the Li Sanjia, otherwise he wouldn't hear them looking for each other, but instead asked about their identities and purposes.

If it weren't for the good relationship, his first reaction would definitely be to deny it, or simply close the door to say that he didn't know, but his attitude felt like he was worried that they would find trouble Li San.

Seeing this, Xia Ning explained more patiently and gently.

"Uncle, that's the case, we have cooperated with Li San to do business before, and we have made an appointment to deliver goods to him today, but we can't find anyone in the contact place, and I heard the neighbors say that he left in a hurry a few days ago, so I was a little worried about whether something happened to him.

I heard him probably mention that his home is in Fugui Lane, but the specific address is not very clear, so I took the liberty to knock on the door to inquire with you, you can rest assured, we have no malicious intentions, just to ask him, whether to continue to receive the goods. ”

Hearing this, the uncle's face relaxed slightly, but he still confirmed uneasily, "Really? ”

Xia Ning smiled and said, "Uncle, do you think our sister and brother look like some kind of bad people?" ”

The uncle secretly looked at the two of them, a young girl in her twenties, her face was indeed very easy-going and friendly, and there was no meanness at all, and although the other was a man, she was at most a half-old teenager.

And the sisters and brothers are also very clean and decently dressed, and the most important thing is that the temperament exuded by the two of them does not look like a poor person, and a person with such a bearing condition does not look like a villain who will fool the old man.

However, Xia Ning really guessed correctly, this Uncle Li and Li San's family are still close to each other, and he has also received Li San's help before, so he will naturally look towards his own people.

After all, Li San entered and exited the Hengtong Gambling House, who knows if he will provoke any enemies or the like?

In addition, the situation of the Li Sanjia family is not very good now, if the two people in front of them are here to find fault, wouldn't they add fuel to the fire of their mother and son?

Therefore, he inevitably became a little more vigilant in his heart.

"Okay, the old man will believe you once, come with me."

After speaking, the uncle closed the door of his courtyard and planned to take the two of them on a trip in person.

"I'm tired of uncle."

Xia Ning smiled happily, and was relieved in her heart, she could be regarded as having found the right person, if it didn't work, she was going to give up and go back to the village.

The current situation in the town made her feel uneasy, and if she continued to search, she really didn't have that patience.

The two of them followed Uncle Li and turned left and right to the door of a small courtyard, this piece of courtyard is very dense, and the appearance of the house is basically the same, and there is no house number sign, if there is no acquaintance to lead the way, it is estimated that they may not be able to find the Li family even if they know the direction.

"You wait."

Uncle Li knocked on the courtyard door, and soon a woman in her forties opened the courtyard door, "Second cousin, why are you here?" ”

"These two people came to find Sanwa, saying that they had cooperated with him, and they came to deliver the goods today, do you know?" Uncle Li directly explained his intentions.

Hearing this, Mother Li looked at the two people standing behind her cousin suspiciously, "Delivery?" ”

"Auntie, hello, my surname is Xia, I don't know if you know about Li San's glutinous rice ball business?"

Xia Ning smiled and asked, she did have a limited understanding of Li San's family situation, and she didn't know how much Li San had told his family.

"Tangyuan?! I know, you are Miss Xia, Sanwa told me, please come in. Mother Li said excitedly.

Seeing this, Uncle Li knew that the two parties knew each other, and he was immediately relieved, "It's good that you know each other, then I'll come back first if there's nothing to do." ”

"Hey, I'm tired of my second cousin leading the way, you go slowly." Mother Li hurriedly turned around to express her gratitude to the other party, and when the other party left, she closed the courtyard door and took Xia Ning and the others into the hall.

"I'm sorry, the house is a little shabby, and the hospitality is not good." Mother Li expressed her guilt, and poured a bowl of sugar water for the two of them with her hands and feet.

They don't have the expensive stuff of tea at home, but it's not rude for ordinary people to be able to serve guests with sugar water.

"Auntie, don't bother, let's just drink plain water."

Xia Ning wanted to stop it, but she was a step too late, so she had to talk about the business of this trip, "Auntie, is Li San at home?" ”

mentioned her son, Mother Li suddenly showed sadness, "Hey~ The third baby is lying in the house." ”

She is such a lone seedling, she has finally come to the bitter end over the years, and she hopes that her son can marry a wife and have children as soon as possible, then she really has no regrets.

But seeing that her days are getting better day by day, she didn't expect such a thing to happen suddenly, and she has been really sad these days.

"What's wrong? How are others? Where did it hurt? Hearing this answer, Xia Ning didn't feel any surprise, but had a feeling that it was really like this, Li San really had an accident.

Mother Li sighed, "It's hard to say, it's not about messing with the people in the gambling house, the right foot was discounted, and it didn't take long to drink the medicine and fall asleep." ”

"Is the injury serious? What did the doctor say? The leg bones are not broken, are they? Xia Ning cared, this fracture can be big or small, and it must not be sloppy.

Mother Li sighed, "Fortunately, he hid fast enough, there is no big problem with his bones, the doctor said that he could be fine after a month, and when he was sent back that day, he was covered in blood, and he almost scared me to death." ”

"It's good that he didn't hurt his bones, so let him lie in bed and recuperate during this time."

Hearing that there was nothing wrong with people, Xia Ning was also relieved, she was also a partner, and she didn't want anything to happen to the other party, after all, if she wanted to make her business bigger in the future, she still needed a right-hand partner like him.

"Mother!"

At this moment, Li San's shout came from the side room.

"Oh, it's coming~" Mother Li replied as she quickly walked towards the side house.

Soon, Mother Li turned back and said to Xia Ning and the others with a smile, "Sanwa woke up and was very excited to know that you were coming, but it was inconvenient for him to come out, so he had to trouble the two of them to come into the house to talk." ”

"It's okay, since he's awake, then our sister and brother should go in and visit him." So, Xia Ning and Song Jingze followed Mother Li into the side house.

"Miss Xia, I'm really sorry! I've been so confused for the past two days that I forgot to ask people to wait in the workshop. Li San sat on the head of the bed, his spirit was not very good, and he obviously looked sick.

When the accident happened two days ago, he wanted to find someone to inform Miss Xia in advance that he would not come to Pingsha Town to deliver goods for the time being, but he had no choice but to remember that he didn't know where Miss Xia lived, and he didn't know who in the town knew her and could help carry a message, so he had to put it on hold for the time being.

Originally, he wanted to wait until the appointed day and explain it to the other person, but because of the medicine for the injury, his brain was dizzy and he forgot about it for a while.
