"I don't know how long I can coax her, what's the bother?" Mrs. Lu withdrew her hand, resisted the urge to wipe her hands with a handkerchief, and said with a soft smile, "If the master really cares for me, let Xu Tianyi be more restrained recently, don't let Lord Xie catch the handle." ”

Lu Deqiu got up and said, "I already warned him two days earlier, and in the past two days, he has been closing the casino and following Zhao Yongsheng to do business in the racecourse." ”

Mrs. Lu got up to see him off, "The master has arranged it, Qiu Niang is the first time to have a body, and her behavior is inevitably squeamish, the master will accompany her more, don't make her sad." ”

"I know." Lu Deqiu nodded, "It's not early, you can rest too." ”

Mrs. Lu should be fine.

Standing at the door, watching him walk away, the smile on his face slowly retracted.

looked down at the hand he had shaken, and a layer of disgust unconsciously appeared in his eyes.

After quietly taking out the handkerchief and wiping the place he had held twice, Mrs. Lu turned around and said, "Go and see if the young ladies are asleep, if they haven't slept yet, tell them that they don't have to come over tomorrow to say goodbye, just serve Miss Chen Er well." ”

The mother-in-law who was waiting on the side should have walked quickly.

Mrs. Lu looked at the empty room, and then at her hands, and the disgust in her eyes couldn't help but worsen.

After asking the mother-in-law and maidservant to prepare hot water, she immediately took off her clothes and soaked herself in the water.

The other side.

After Chen Anning was surrounded by the ladies of the Taishou Mansion to the Luoqiu Courtyard, she continued to play the role of the daughter of a small family who could not get on the stage and had a shallow vision, and did not refuse the gold and silver jewelry sent by the ladies to curry favor with her.

After talking until midnight, after reluctantly saying goodbye to the young ladies, Chen Anning grabbed a handful of gold and silver, quite unsatisfied.

"Addicted?" Xie Xun's voice came from the direction of the back window.

Chen Anning glanced at the gold and silver jewelry piled up like a hill on the table, and then looked at him and said: "It's just a flattery for the young ladies, and it only takes an hour before and after, and such a big table is piled up, this is too guarded, and it is really rich." ”

Xie Xun walked over, grabbed the gold and silver and played with it for a while, and said, "It is indeed rich." ”

Chen Anning glanced at him: "If he is arrested, will all these belongings be confiscated?" ”

Xie Xun threw away the gold and silver, and said with a smile: "What, you want to take it for yourself?" ”

"It's just that you are the Dali Temple, and it is your official business to handle the case." Chen Anning hooked the corners of his mouth, "I'm an ordinary person, but I don't have this obligation, so it's not too much to get paid for work, right?" ”

"I'm going to say too much, and you won't take it?" Xie Xun teased.

Chen Anning raised his eyebrows, "Of course not." ”

"Since it won't, let's take it." Xie Xun said casually.

Chen Anning praised him: "Righteousness! ”

Xie Xun laughed twice, found a chair next to him and sat down, and talked about the business that came over: "Xu Tianyi left the casino and followed Zhao Yongsheng to buy and sell horses. But judging from the news found by Ah Zhan, Xu Tianyi just left the casino openly, and secretly colluded with Zhao Yongsheng to harm the horse merchants who came to Jincheng County to do business. It's just that their actions are more cautious and secretive than before. ”

"So you have to drag it out as much as possible to buy them more time for the layout."

Chen Anning asked him: "What is the origin of Xu Tianyi, and I haven't found it yet?" ”

"At present, the only news found is that this Xu Tianyi is an orphan with unknown parents, who has been begging for a living for many years," Xie Xun said slowly, "About seven or eight years ago, when he was out begging, he met Zhao Yongsheng who was being deceived by the You Fang Warlock, and couldn't help but expose the scam of the You Fang Warlock, and helped Zhao Yongsheng save almost more than five hundred taels of silver, and then Zhao Yongsheng let him work on the horse farm in order to thank him." ”

"During the work in the racecourse, Xu Tianyi found out that Zhao Yongsheng was also engaged in deceptive things, and secretly had dealings with Lu Deqiu, so he recommended himself to design a fairy jumping scam, and after Zhao Yongsheng and Lu Deqiu looked at each other differently, he won Lu Deqiu's attention with the Tianxian Bureau, and then transferred him to the casino, and handed over the management of the entire casino to him."

"Xu Tianyi also lived up to Lu Deqiu's high expectations, under his management, the casino was not only larger than the original, but also several times more profitable than before."

"Horse market, casino, ......" Chen Anning threw down the gold and silver, picked up a string of jasper prayer beads, and said while fiddling, "In this way, they are completely enclosing Jincheng County and doing the thing of chickens and dogs." ”

Xie Xun sneered: "Not only did they enclose Jincheng County and do things like chickens and dogs, but they also controlled the economic lifeline of the entire county with one hand. ”

Chen Anning looked at him and asked tentatively, "Is it only Jincheng County like this, or is it the same in the eight counties where the horses are distributed?" ”

Xie Xun didn't answer and asked: "What do you think?" ”

Chen Anning sighed twice: "It sounds like the situation is very serious." ”

Xie Xun laughed: "If it's not serious, I won't invite you." If you don't ask you, you won't make more than five million. ”

Chen Anning nodded cooperatively: "It seems that it is better to be serious." ”

"It's not promising!" Xie Xun scolded with a smile, came over and grabbed two handfuls of jewelry and left.

Chen Anning didn't care at first, but when he looked down at the rest of the jewelry after he was gone, he found that the two handfuls he seemed to grab at random had almost taken away all the good quality jewelry.

"Insidious and cunning dog man!" Chen Anning sneered.

Nothing was said all night.

Early the next morning.

Chen Anning had just woken up, and the ladies of the Taishou Mansion arrived on their heels.

There were only five young ladies, but they were chattering like hundreds of ducks around her, indiscriminately directing a bunch of maidservants, vying to dress her.

Chen Anning tried hard to make a happy expression, letting them fight and let them rob.

Finally, in their competition, they finally chose and changed their clothes, painted and combed their makeup, and they began to compete for the restaurant for breakfast again.

Looking at the scene of their red faces and red ears, and looking at the increasingly dazzling sunlight, Chen Anning kindly proposed: "Let's draw lots." ”

"Yes, draw lots!" The young ladies who had been fighting for a long time immediately agreed.

Finally, after the restaurant was chosen, they set off.

At this time, it was already noon.

The carriage arrived at the restaurant smoothly and smoothly.

For some reason, when Chen Anning stepped out of the carriage, he breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably.

However......

Before they could enter the restaurant, two carriages suddenly came and stopped abruptly beside them.

"Hua Jin, Hua Rong, what are you doing?" The people in the carriage hadn't shown up yet, and Lu Wenjun, the second lady of the Taishou Mansion who recognized the carriage, spoke, but her tone was not very friendly.

With her words, Lu Yueer, the third lady of the Taishou Mansion, and Lu Yueyun, the fifth lady, quickly stood in front of Chen Anning and blocked her sight.

Sixth Miss Lu Fulan and Ninth Miss Lu Jingyun also stood on Chen Anning's side on the left and right.

"We don't need to tell you what to do!" The carriage door opened, and when Hua Rong, who came out first, snorted coldly, her eyes fell vertically on Chen Anning.

Her gaze wasn't friendly either.
