Chapter 145: Purpose

The stall owner also quickly passed, bent down to pick up the broken bowl on the ground, and still bent down and looked at the customer humbly, "Didn't you put sugar?" It's all ground with fresh soy milk, which has a fishy smell, and you can suppress the taste by putting some sucrose. Don't be angry, the villain will give you another bowl of soy milk and tofu brains for you to taste."

He was very nimble with his hands and feet, wiping the marks on the table, and did not forget to wave at his son to stop standing there.

It's a pity that the guest is not relenting and is still pestering.

Meng Zhiyi retracted his gaze and drank some before asking the guard behind him, "Where do you listen to his accent?"

Zhang Huwei shook his head, "I didn't hear it, the accent is a little strange, and I see that his hands are a little rough."

"Rough?"

Zhang Huwei nodded, "If it's just farm work, my fingers shouldn't look like that, I have to look closer at his tiger's mouth, but it's basically a martial arts practitioner."

"You go and see."

Zhang Huwei motioned to the other nursing homes, asked them to stand up, and walked over there.

"Shopkeeper, give me a bowl of tofu brain to taste, put more sugar, I can't taste the mushy smell of beans."

So it's not fishy, it's mushy.

It really depends on everyone's palate.

But Escort Zhang also reminded the guest invisibly.

When the man saw the long knife hanging from Zhang's waist, his arrogance subsided a little, and he accepted the benefit of the stall owner giving him an extra bowl, and he didn't make any more noise.

Escort Zhang had already seen the man's hand under the table clearly, and then took the tofu brain sent by the stall owner.

The stall owner apologized, "I'm sorry to disturb you, guest."

"It's fine." Guarding Zhang was holding a tofu brain, and when he passed by the door, he saw the stall owner's son who was still uncomfortable in the house, revealing a sense of anger and stubbornness.

He retracted his gaze, took the tofu brain back to Meng Zhiyi, and said in a low voice, "It's a person who practices martial arts. And the marks are not like broadswords and long swords, but scimitars, and their handles are different."

Meng Zhiyi asked, "Are you from the Outer Desert?"

"Yes."

The winter solstice came back soon, and he carried six boxes, and his face turned red when he ran to the ground, thinking that he was afraid that Meng Zhiyi would be in a hurry, and he was very panicked.

"Girl, I'm alright."

Meng Zhiyi put down the spoon, "Well, the tofu brain that Guardian Zhang bought for you, drink it."

Winter Solstice looked at Zhang Huwei, "Did you invite me?" She's spent a lot of money today.

Guard Zhang glanced at the winter solstice, "Hmm."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and went to the store, and even paid for Meng Zhiyi's share.

Winter Solstice gulped down, "It's delicious, it's just too sweet!"

Meng Zhiyi smiled and looked at the street on the side.

It's not that she's overly suspicious, it's that there are really a lot of people from the outer desert in Jiangnan City, and they are all wearing Daning's clothes, and if you don't look at your face carefully, you can't see anything special.

"Miss, that person left before he finished eating." Zhang Huwei said.

Meng Zhiyi didn't look back, "Look at the people on this street, are there a lot of outsiders?"

Zhang Huwei quietly observed the surroundings and nodded, "It's a lot, but I don't see the hands, judging from the walking posture, it should also be a person who practices martial arts."

With such doubts, Meng Zhiyi went directly to the study of Plum Garden.

But Meng Xing hadn't come back yet, so Meng Zhiyi had no choice but to accompany Xie Shi and Meng Mingyue to eat.

Xie said, "Your father has been coming back late lately, sometimes not for two days."

"So busy?"

"yes, that's the way it is at the end of the year."

I don't know if it's because she has too many doubts in her heart or what, Meng Zhiyi didn't eat much for dinner.

After waiting in the plum garden for a long time, she didn't see Meng Xing come back, but she yawned and was sleepy.

Xie Shi: "Zhiyi, are you in a hurry? Or I'll have someone go find him

Come on."

Meng Xing is indeed very busy at this time of year.

"No need."

Meng Zhiyi thought about it, stood up and said goodbye, "Mother, I'll go back first."

Yueyue also yawned all the time, because Meng Zhiyi didn't leave, she just stuck and didn't want to sleep.

Meng Zhiyi touched her head, "Yueyue rest early."

"Sister, don't go......" Yueyue hugged Meng Zhiyi's hand in a daze.

Xie Shi also said, "Zhiyi, let's rest here. It's so late, it's windy outside, and it's so far away."

"It's fine."

Meng Zhiyi walked back with the winter solstice.

"Girl, or I'll carry you on my back." Dong Solstice held a lantern in one hand and Meng Zhiyi in the other. Seeing her walking very slowly, I was a little distressed.

"It's okay, this is a blow, but there is not much difficulty."

Mud Alley.

"Master, Xu Zerong has already acted."

Lu Nanfeng raised his head from the candle flame and immediately began to change his clothes.

Xuanyi: "Our people are ready."

Lu Nanfeng nodded, and quickly put on a night suit, "Let people go directly to the vicinity of the hunting ground and pay attention to the surrounding movements." Go and inform the people near Iron Mouse Mountain, and only two will be left to report the news, and all the others will be withdrawn."

Xuan Yi was puzzled, "Master, don't we follow the Xu family's team to transport grain to Iron Mouse Mountain?"

They have been in Iron Mouse Mountain for so long, just for this moment, to destroy all the soldiers raised near Jiangnan City. If they find this powerful charge of treason, they will be able to go back to Kyoto to resume their lives.

Seeing that you can find the entrance to the garrison, you don't follow at this time?

Lu Nanfeng just asked, "Does Xu Zerong have any followers to transport grain?"

"Nope. He's still in the hunting grounds."

Genichi reacted, "He followed last time."

Lu Nanfeng said again, "Last time, why did you think those two brothers and sisters were able to intercept food so easily."

Xuanyi replied, "It's because Xu Zerong knew our intentions and deliberately didn't arrange so many people. He wants us to follow!"

Lu Nanfeng glanced at him and walked outside. z.br>

Although Xuan Yi figured this out, he still had a lot of questions: "Xu Zerong deliberately released the introduction, what is the purpose?"

Lu Nanfeng's footsteps were windy, "I hope it's not what I think."

The crowd quickly received orders and dissipated into the night.

At the same time, Zhou Yongheng also got the news.

"The head of the Xu family has already transported all the grain to the Iron Mouse Mountain."

"So fast?" Zhou Yongheng was surprised.

Such a rush for quick success.

"Yes, the people of the Xu family master should go a long way."

Zhou Yongheng: "You said people from the Xu family? Xu Zerong didn't go himself?"

"Nope. It was Yu Feng who took the people there."

Zhou Yongheng immediately understood, "No wonder he knew that someone was staring at him and transported the grain out so quickly. Looks like he's having other plans!"

The little guy stood aside and didn't answer, because he knew that Zhou Yongheng was talking to himself.

"Don't worry about the food, go find someone to keep an eye on Xu Zerong."

"Yes, Master." The little guy walked out.

Zhou Yongheng was not idle, and immediately went out to find Ma Gonggong.

Hunting grounds.

"The head of the house, Miss Yu'er can't be found."

Xu Zerong was taken aback, "What? Didn't you let her live in my house honestly?"

"Yes, but there is no one in the house, and I asked the neighbors nearby, and they said that they hadn't heard any movement for two days."

"Go and find her, make sure you find her."

"Yes." The nurse clenched his fists and planned to leave.

Xu Zerong shouted again, "Wait, you take this letter back."

"Yes." The nurse turned around and took the letter and put it in

on the chest.

If someone pays attention to Xu Zerong, they will find that he has lost a lot of weight, and there is a skin left on his face.

"Let's go, let's go first."

After waiting for a while, Xu Zerong was a little anxious in his heart, and led people across the horse to the road on the outskirts of Jiangnan City.

On a tree not far from the hunting ground, two men in black saw this scene and learned a birdsong in one direction.

Soon, several men in black followed Xu Zerong's direction.

The Xu family.

Xu Chunrou looked at the woman on the shelf proudly.

I only heard the woman begging for mercy: "As long as you let me go, I will leave Jiangnan City immediately, and I will not have anything to do with Xu Zerong."

Xu Chunrou smiled, "Will you know that your life is important? Why did you go earlier?"

The woman swallowed her swollen dry throat, "I don't know, Miss Xu, let me go, I will promise you whatever you want me to do."

"Okay, I'm sure I'll let you go." Xu Chunrou was also easy to speak, "Tell me first, who is the person who drew the album?"

"What album? I don't know. Miss Xu, I haven't even met Mrs. Xu."

"Still don't admit it?"

The woman hurriedly shook her head, "I really don't know, but as long as Miss Xu lets me go, I will find out who drew the album and hand it over to you."

At this time, a maid walked in and said something in Xu Chunrou's ear, and Xu Chunrou immediately instructed the mother-in-law on the side, "You take care of her."

After finishing speaking, he immediately went out with the maid.

The woman on the shelf let out a long breath and looked at the two mothers-in-law standing on the side.

"Can you deliver a letter for me?"

The two mothers-in-law ignored her.

"As long as you deliver the letter to the Xu family master, I will ask him to give each of you two hundred taels of silver at that time."

Two hundred taels of silver is a lot, enough for ordinary people to have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime.

The two mothers-in-law glanced at her with some emotion.

The woman felt that there was a play, and continued to persuade, "You should know why Miss Xu is doing this to me, this is enough to prove my weight in the heart of the Xu family master. And I didn't let you let me out, just send me a message quietly."

The two mothers-in-law glanced at each other.

Just quietly sending a message to the people around the head of the family, whether it succeeds or not, it has no effect on them.

Even if this woman sues them in front of the young lady at that time, they can say that this woman framed them, because these two mothers-in-law are very ruthless, and it is normal for her to have a revenge mentality.

If it had been done, they would have two hundred taels of silver.

After the two mothers-in-law exchanged glances, they looked at the woman on the shelf again, "What kind of message?"

"I just need to let the head of the Xu family know that I am tied up here. When it is done, I will give each of you two hundred taels of silver."

The two mothers-in-law nodded and nodded, "If you dare to lie to us, see how we clean you up."
