Chapter Seventy-Four: Hidden Feelings
"Yulang don't be joking. Uncle Liu forcibly squeezed out a smile on his face, but he faintly felt that something was wrong in his heart.
"Why do you see that I'm joking? At the beginning, it was written in black and white, but it was clearly written, if you didn't pay back the money within the time limit, you would mortgage the restaurant to me. As he spoke, Huang Yulang took out an IOU from his sleeve pocket and handed it over.
"How so? I remember writing it for a one-year termγγγγγγ Uncle Liu muttered to himself in despair, his hands shook, and the IOU fell lightly to the table.
Jun Ci stretched out two fingers and copied it lightly, lightly clipped the IOU in mid-air.
"Today, Liu Yang borrowed 900 taels of silver from Huang Yulang, and promised to pay it off in a lump sum with interest within two months. If it is not returned after the expiration date, Penglai Restaurant will be owned by Huang Yulang. With just one glance, Junci knew the ins and outs of the matter.
Huang Yulang snatched the note from Jun Ci's hand and carefully put it away. Turning his head to Uncle Liu, he sneered: "Liu Yang, you are limited to vacate the restaurant within three days, otherwise we will see you at the yamen." β
originally thought that it would be impossible for the Liu family to pay off their debts within a year, but who would have expected that in less than half a year, Uncle Liu would raise enough silver tickets of 1,000 taels. Fortunately, I made two preparations in advance, otherwise it would be in vain if my wishful thinking was played loudly. Now that you've torn your face, there's no need to pretend anymore.
"Why wait three days, you can go to the official now. Junci took a sip of rhododendron red, and replied to Huang Yulang lightly.
Huang Yulang saw that Jun Ci didn't even look at himself, and said to Liu Bo with a blue face: "Can he call the shots?"
Uncle Liu glanced at Junci, who was focused on the cherry blossoms outside the window, and knew that this mysterious young man was also waiting for his choice.
Although Junci seems to be unfathomable, once he meets the official, there is no room for maneuver. Penglai Restaurant is the last place for his grandfather and grandson, should he put all his bets on this young man? Uncle Liu was a little undecided in his heart.
Seeing Uncle Liu's hesitant appearance, Huang Yulang smiled and said, "Young man, don't take yourself too seriously. β
Jun Ci smiled without being surprised, and did not squeak.
Seeing that Jun Ci did not refute, Huang Yulang wanted to continue to sarcastic, and Liu Bo's sonorous and powerful voice sounded in the hall at the right time: "Brother Jun's words are my words, and if you see an official, you will see an official." Are you still afraid of you, calf?"
I don't know why, when Uncle Liu saw Jun Ci's smile without a trace of fireworks, he suddenly had a feeling that he would miss out on the last chance to keep the restaurant. Annoyed in his heart, he saw that Huang Yulang still refused to give up, and immediately scolded without thinking about it.
Huang Yulang paused for a moment, he didn't expect that Uncle Liu would turn his face to him for this young man, and laughed angrily: "Okay, then I'll wait for you in the official mansion." Liu Yang, don't regret it!"
Uncle Liu watched Huang Yulang slam the door angrily, only then did he feel that his legs and feet were a little weak, Xiaohui hurriedly helped his grandfather to sit down, the accident just now happened too fast, and she hadn't reacted yet, why did the Huang family, who had always been good friends with the Liu family, turn their faces when they said that they turned their faces?
"Childe, what should we do now?" Liu Bo respectfully asked Junci for advice, and the current Junci was his last straw.
"You go to the government first, don't let Huang Yulang's wicked people sue first, I'll be there later. Jun Ci said succinctly.
In the empty restaurant, Junci drank by himself. Soon, the wine in the jug was at the bottom.
"I can keep the Liu family, but what about my home?" Jun Ci looked at the direction of Wang Wushan with slightly red eyes, and drank the last cup of azalea.
A lonely sigh echoed in the restaurant, and Junci's lonely figure disappeared into the air.
Above the court, Huang Yulang and Liu Bo knelt on the ground, and the county commander Chen Chong sat in front of the desk and frowned and examined the IOU presented by Huang Yulang.
"Liu Yang, did you write this IOU to Huang Yulang?" Chen Chong put down the IOU in his hand and asked Uncle Liu.
"Back to my lord, this IOU was indeed written by the villain. Uncle Liu replied tremblingly.
"In that case, you should mortgage Penglai Restaurant to Huang Yulang, why did you temporarily regret it?" Chen Chong stared at Uncle Liu with blazing eyes, not angry and arrogant.
"My lord, the repayment period I wrote to Huang Yulang was one year, but now it has suddenly become two months, please be careful. Uncle Liu bowed to the ground, his eyes full of anxiety.
"Bold, written in black and white, written clearly, how can you quibble. Come on, give me twenty rods. Chen Chong slapped the shocked wood and shouted angrily.
Xiao Hui, who was kneeling on the side, was frightened when she heard that she was going to torture her grandfather, and opened her hands to stop in front of Uncle Liu and said, "My lord, grandpa, he is old, if you want to punish me, punish me." β
"Above the hall, Hugh is messing around. You don't pull her away yet. A hint of anger flashed in Chen Chong's eyes, and he shouted angrily at the officials who were waiting for his instructions.
"Are the laws of Huaxia just to make you bend into a trick?" Just as the official was about to start the execution, Junci's voice suddenly sounded in the hall without warning.
Chen Chong only felt that his eyes flickered, and a young man in white appeared in the hall, his tall figure was like a javelin, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, looking heroic.
"Who are you? Don't delay the judge's decision. Chen Chong, who couldn't see the depth of Junci, surprisingly did not say anything to punish him.
"I remember that when I was ordered to guard Liangcheng, you were still Shen Kai's master. Jun Ci glanced at the mirror on the beam, and talked eloquently.
"Who are you?" Chen Chong faintly felt that the young man in front of him was a little familiar, and his tone of voice couldn't help but be much more polite.
"It seems that time can really fade everything, no one remembers me Junci anymore?" Junci looked at Chen Chong and laughed at himself.
When Chen Chong heard the word Junci, he only felt a numbness in his spine, and he was shocked all over his body, and hurriedly rushed down from his Taishi chair, knelt down and said, "Xiaguan Chen Chong see Lord Tianhou." β
Seeing that several officials behind him were still standing still in a daze, Chen Chong was so angry that his teeth itched, and he scolded angrily: "Why don't you hurry up and meet Lord Tianyan?"
Several officials reacted when they heard the anger of their bosses, and knelt down in unison: "Meet Lord Tianyan!"
In the hall, Uncle Liu's eyes were full of shock, Huang Yulang's face was like ashes, and Xiao Hui covered his mouth in disbelief.
The 800,000-strong army of the flooded grassland, how can the weather lord, known as the god of the Chinese army, be so easy to forget?
"Get up. "Junci doesn't want to embarrass everyone.
Chen Chong stood up, bowed slightly, and looked like he was listening to the teachings and looking forward to Junci.
"If Lord Chen doesn't suggest that I overstep my bounds, I would like to ask Huang Yulang two questions. Jun Ci smiled and discussed with Chen Chong.
"Not recommended, not recommended, please poop. Chen Chong smiled bitterly in his heart, and if he gave himself ten more dares, he wouldn't dare to refuse.
Jun Ci nodded, turned around and looked at Huang Yulang, who had a trace of fierceness flashing in his eyes, and was ready to resist to the end, and said, "The IOU that Uncle Liu wrote to you, is it really two months?"
"Yes ... Twelve months, and then I changed ten to yu, and it became two months. Huang Yulang's voice suddenly became a little dull, and no one saw a ray of blue light flashing in Junci's eyes when he looked at Huang Yulang.
The matter came to light, Chen Chong was about to ask the official to escort Huang Yulang down, when Junci suddenly said something inexplicable: "How did Xiaohui's parents die?"
Huang Yulang showed a struggling expression on his face, but when he met the blue light in Junci's eyes, he immediately became blank again.
"The Liu family and his wife were pushed off the cliff and fell to their deaths. "Huang Yulang is like an emotionless puppet, telling the unspeakable truth.
"Why did you do that?" said Jun Ci with a solemn expression.
When Uncle Liu mentioned Xiaohui's parents to Junci, Huang Yulang's eyes deliberately avoided it. At first, Junci thought it was Huang Yulang who was embarrassed, but after seeing Huang Yulang's hands and belly, Junci found that things were not as simple as he thought. Originally, he just wanted to use the Gu God Technique to lower Huang Yulang's consciousness defense and find out a little useful information, but who knew that in the end, he would dig out the real murderer.
"Why?" Huang Yulang, who had a blank look, suddenly turned hideous when he heard this question.
