Ling Chu's words made the corners of Zhou Wu's mouth twitch.

Even Steward Lu and Hu Batian's action of pulling the golden leaf couldn't help but pause.

Ling Chu looked at them innocently, "Didn't you smell any fragrance?" ”

Steward Lu snorted and hesitated for a moment before saying, "It seems to smell of roast chicken?" ”

Hu Batian said angrily, "What a Liu Dongluo, it's not that all the money has been lost, how can you still afford to eat roast chicken." ”

Hu Batian, who was angry, followed the fragrance of roast chicken and looked for it, and soon stopped at the stove.

Looking down at a pile of chicken bones on the ground, Hu Batian kicked it, and his anger became even greater.

"Liu Dongluo's dog thing, he really ate roast chicken."

's ruthlessness to Liu Dongluo, even Zhou Wu couldn't see it, "That Liu Dongjia is really not a thing, he secretly hides the gold leaf, and he also has money to buy roast chicken, but he has to use his wife and daughter to pay off his debts." ”

Ling Chu on the side didn't speak, but he agreed with the words of the two.

Liu Dongluo, that thing is really not a thing.

Hu Batian looked at the pile of chicken bones and suddenly felt hungry and panicked, scolded a few words, turned his head and prepared to leave the stove.

Ling Chu suddenly pointed to the inside of the stove cave and said, "Hey, the ashes in the stove seem to be buried with something, could it be... Roasted sweet potatoes? ”

Hu Batian paused, turned his head and followed Ling Chu's finger to look into the stove, the ash in the stove bulged slightly, and it looked like something was buried.

Ling Chu pulled a branch out of the pyre, squatted at the mouth of the stove, and pulled a few times with the branch in the ashes of the stove.

Hu Batian touched his gurgling stomach and asked, "Is it roasted sweet potato?" ”

Steward Lu pulled out the gold leaves hidden in the salt shaker and cleaned them up, and also walked over, "I'm just hungry, dig out the sweet potatoes and fill my stomach first." ”

Ling Chu paused, the corners of his mouth twitched, he didn't say anything, he took the branch and dug it up silently.

Hu Batian and Steward Lu waited aside, ready to enjoy the fragrant roasted sweet potato.

Who knew that under the staring of four pairs of eyes, what was dug out was not a fragrant roasted sweet potato, but a yellowish paper bag.

Several people were stunned at the same time.

"What is this?"

Ling Chu put down the branches, took out the paper bag, and shook the ashes on it.

Hu Batian reached out and took it and found that it was an oiled paper bag.

When I opened it, I found that the oiled paper bag contained a contract.

Hu Batian is just a rampant and domineering bully, but in fact, he doesn't know a few big characters.

He didn't know much of the words on the contract, so he had to hand it to Steward Lu.

Steward Lu finished reading the ten lines at a glance, and his face was gloomy, "Liu Dongluo actually sold his restaurant." ”

When Hu Batian and Zhou Wu heard this, they were surprised, they didn't expect this to be the sales contract of the restaurant.

Although Ling Chu was also surprised on her face, she had already known it from the scan of the system.

"Although Liu Dongluo's restaurant is not big, the business is okay. Although there are not many customers recently, isn't it a pity that he sold it like this? ”

Hu Batian was puzzled, but Steward Lu, as the second steward of Changle Fang, knew more things.

He probably guessed Liu Dongluo's plan.

"Hurry up and search for the money."

Ling Chu frowned slightly, how could she feel that this attitude of Steward Lu suddenly became eager.

Hu Batian also noticed it, "Steward Lu, is something wrong?" ”

Steward Lu sneered, "Then Liu Dongluo sold the restaurant without telling everyone, he is planning to take the silver taels, secretly run away, and pay off our debts." ”

Hu Batian suddenly realized, "Liu Dongluo is really bold. ”

Liu Dongluo didn't know that his intention to run away secretly had been exposed, and he was already uneasy when he saw that Steward Lu and the others were going in the direction of the kitchen.

Seeing that they hadn't come back for so long, the anxiety in his heart grew stronger and stronger, and he wanted to take a look in the kitchen several times.

Helplessly, Hu Batian's two followers stared at him to death, and he had no way to get rid of them.

Liu Dongluo gave Ge Shi a look, wanting her to obstruct Hu Batian and them.

But Ge Shi was unmoved by his hints, and pulled his daughter to stand aside silently.

Not to mention that she didn't dare to go to Hu Batian and Lu to make trouble, even if she had the guts, she wouldn't stop it.

Ge even hoped that Miss Ling could find out the money, after all, if she didn't pay off her debts, where would she and her daughter survive.

was used by her husband to pay off her debts, and she entered the fire pit, and she and her daughter would be worse than dead.

If it was herself, it would be fine, but the girl was still young, how could she watch her be ruined.

Liu Dongluo was anxious and angry, but he didn't expect Ge Shi, who had always been docile and obedient, to dare not listen to him.

In the kitchen, Steward Lu's attitude towards Ling Chu was much gentler.

Although he felt that this golden leaf and the contract had been discovered by coincidence, if it weren't for this Ling girl, they really wouldn't have found it.

After all, no one would have thought that the gold leaf would be hidden in a salt shaker, let alone to check if the ashes were hidden.

"Miss Ling, the golden leaf is not enough to repay Liu Dongluo's debts, if you want to save Ge and her daughter, this money is not enough."

"Don't worry, Manager Lu, I'll use the hexagram to calculate it again and see where the Liu family still has hidden silver."

Steward Lu was satisfied when he saw her so obedient.

The system had already scanned out the Tibetan silver, and Ling Chu didn't need to use hexagram to calculate it at all.

However, in order not to make Lu Guan and them suspicious, she still took out the turtle shell and copper coins from her bag and pretended to start calculating.

I looked at the copper coins scattered on the table, and found that I couldn't understand the hexagram at all.

Steward Lu had no choice but to ask Ling Chu, "How is it, but it's been calculated?" ”

Ling Chu frowned, and said nonsense to the hexagram seriously, "According to the hexagram, the silver should still be in the kitchen. ”

Hu Batian, "In the kitchen? Then hurry up and find it. ”

Ling Chu put away the copper coins and turtle shells, and rummaged through the kitchen with Zhou Wu.

With Lu in charge, Hu Batian did not stand idly by, but also rolled up his sleeves and followed to look for it.

In order to make a good impression in front of Steward Lu, Hu Batian worked very hard, and it didn't take long for him to be tired and sweaty.

"I've looked for everything in this kitchen, and there's no silver at all. Miss Ling, could you have miscalculated? ”

Ling Chu stopped, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve pocket, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

It's almost packed, it should be enough.

Ling Chu suddenly pointed to a pile of firewood in the corner of the kitchen and said, "Hey, the firewood over there, it seems that you haven't found it yet?" ”

I really haven't looked for it.

There was not much of that small pile of firewood, and it was sparsely piled up in the corner, and through the gaps in the firewood branches, it didn't look like something was hidden.

Hu Batian twisted his eyebrows, "It's just a few sticks of firewood, what is there to find." ”

Steward Lu looked at it, but he didn't refute Hu Batian's words.

Ling Chu walked over and pulled up with his foot against the pile of firewood.

Zhou Wu didn't speak, walked over silently, bent down and moved Chai He away.

There is not much martial arts talk this week, but he is a good hand at work.

Ling Chu withdrew his appreciative gaze, and suddenly pointed to the ground under the pyre and said in surprise, "Hey, what is this?" ”
