Chapter 46: Waiting to get dressed
~
Xia Qiping, Zhong Guozhen, Mei Yufeng and others lost their Zi, and drank depressedly in the restaurant "Fugui Restaurant" that Shi Zhiqiang packed back just now, feeling a little depressed.
The three of them didn't say anything for a long time, because this restaurant is also directly operated by the town government, the dishes are also relatively slow, and there is only a plate of cold dishes of old vinegar peanuts on the table for the three of them to drink, so they have to continue to be hungry.
Mei Yufeng suddenly slapped the table and said, "No!" Some of the peanuts on the plate were splashed out and scattered on the table.
Zhong Guozhen picked up a peanut that had fallen on the table and said, "What's wrong?"
Mei Yufeng said: "The amount of food that Shi Zhiqiang packed back just now was wrong twice!"
All three of them were smart people and immediately came to their senses. Zhong Guozhen said: "No wonder I have always felt that there is something strange. There are also several characteristics that are very strange: there is still some rice on the ground; besides, didn't Shi Zhiqiang say that he packed it up and went back to the town government to eat for his brothers; obviously Zhu Hai shouted so early, why are they still so tired and undressed; and I didn't see the eldest wife's clothes; and the small wardrobe didn't seem to be tight......"
Xia Qiping suddenly said angrily: "Yes! Zhu Hai, the old fritter, must have found it, but he just didn't say it." Otherwise, he was so clever when he was chasing before, and as soon as he arrived at the door of the mayor's concubine's house, he began to suddenly become a different person?" But then he said in frustration: "But what's the use now, running away, and going to Mayor Yuan again without any evidence?"
"Then go and ask Mayor Yuan, where did they go?"
"Don't say that he probably doesn't know, even if he does, how can the three of us ask, he won't tell us, let's go and torture a court official? Damn, the court official! Hmph!" Xia Qiping said hatefully.
Alas, bitter. Xia Qiping didn't know how to explain to his boss, Zhong Guozhen didn't know how to explain to the owner of the big village, and more importantly, this time he let the tiger return to the mountain.
Xia Qiping shouted: "Shopkeeper, serve the food quickly! If you don't serve the food again, you won't be paid!"
Suddenly, a guard hurried from downstairs and reported to Xia Qiping, the regimental training commander: "Report, there is strange news. I don't know if I should say it?" After speaking, the guard waited for the training commander of the Xia regiment to reply.
Xia Qiping slapped him: "Say, your words are as slow as serving food in this restaurant!"
"Yes. According to some guards, they found out Zhao Sizhong's whereabouts, and sneakily walked towards a certain place!"
Zhao Sizhong ?... He must have gone looking for Lan Niu! Heaven treats us well, the east is not bright, the west is bright, there is still a way to find their whereabouts!" Xia Qiping said in ecstasy.
The three of them were excited, threw down the money, and stood up immediately without waiting for the meal.
After standing up, Xia Qiping did not take a step immediately, staring at Zhong Guozhen and Mei Yufeng.
"Hey, why don't you leave?" Mei Yufeng was puzzled, but seeing that Xia Qiping had been staring at his brothers, he suddenly woke up and said: "I know! If we find that Song belongs to them this time, we will definitely do our best to help you take them down, and the three of them will attack together!"
Hearing Mei Yufeng's response so fast and so categorical, Zhong Guozhen frowned, the thoughts in his heart were not completely consistent, but since Brother Mei had agreed, he nodded reluctantly.
Xia Qiping was a little satisfied, but continued: "We must not spare Mayor Yuan and them like this!"
"What do you mean?" asked Mei Yufeng.
"I decided to let him continue to send Zhu Hai and them to be responsible for the arrest and provide manpower. In addition, we need multiple witnesses as well!" said Xia Qiping.
"It should be. Let Zhu Hai and them take the lead. Mei Yufeng said.
So, Xia Qiping and the others turned around and ran towards Mayor Yuan's concubine.
**
Mayor Yuan is discussing the next step with Zhu Hai and Shi Zhiqiang in the outhouse.
Shi Zhiqiang said: "My lord, the little lady went out to buy clothes for the eldest lady, it won't be for us, right?"
Zhu Hai said: "My lord, you are so blessed, you really make the little ones envious." Let the two ladies live in harmony and enjoy the blessings of others! This is definitely not something that ordinary people can do!"
Mayor Yuan's heart was full of joy at this sentence, or Zhu Hai was better at speaking than Shi Zhiqiang. He was quite happy about what happened in the inner room:
In the back room, Mayor Yuan abandoned the clothes of Song and Xiao Xia, and left the clothes that Yu Zi and Lan Niu had changed, thinking that they couldn't kiss Xiangze, but they could always smell their body fragrance coats, although they were "obscene" enough, hehe.
Looking at the relationship between the eldest wife and the concubine, although they were very moved and felt very harmonious, it is a pity that the things in their bones will not change, and they still cannot be companions immediately, but they have been much more relaxed than the original enemy's situation. The two can at least put down their respective shelves and communicate kindly.
The concubine Jingbo went out to buy coats for Cheng Yinghong, while Yinghong stayed quietly in the back room in her clothes and pants, waiting with shame and worry, a bit like when she was the bride of Mayor Yuan, except that she was waiting to take off her clothes back then, and now she is waiting to get dressed.
Mayor Yuan said: "That's." The county lord has gone too far this time, and he will give a handle to his political opponents who are eyeing him, which will affect his son's political future in the state capital. For women, you have to remember that it's okay to be lustful, but don't fight for what you can't get, otherwise you will play with fire**. How good it is for me to have two good wives with me, and I don't want other women in my life!, and there will be no problems!" His last words raised his voice, and he deliberately heard it in Cheng Yinghong, the eldest lady in the back room. At the same time as these words, his mind also flew over the shadows of Yu Zi and Lan Niu, as well as the two sets of clothes left behind by the two of them and the silk clothes they worn.
Cheng Yinghong, who was naked, heard such boasting and boasting, and for a while, her heart fluctuated. She was already fat, and after marriage, she neglected to pamper herself, she didn't pay attention to food and clothing, she was fat and dirty, and she was indeed not as diligent and harsh as her concubine;
She touched the silk clothes, which felt warm and smooth, as if it was a dream of her own woman's heart. She thought: Fat women also love beauty.
Just as I was thinking, I heard a knock on the door. Zhou Jingbo shouldn't have come back so soon?
Seeing the comer, Mayor Yuan felt that this was a happy day, if Xia Qiping had not repeatedly harassed and blocked him.
After hearing this, the three of them looked at each other, and they couldn't imagine that they had worked hard in vain, but they were still caught by Xia Qiping and their traces.
The three of them had no choice but to let Xia Qiping go to the door and avoid Xia Qiping to discuss. Seeing the mayor looking at him, Zhu Hai said with a bitter face: "Mayor of the town, I'm not going, right?
Mayor Yuan was also reluctant to risk his life, so he looked at Shi Zhiqiang, who was not very satisfied with what he said just now.
Shi Zhiqiang said: "My lord, I'm also very tired, you know, just now you let me run so ~ many times, do so much~ many things, and have experienced so ~ thrilling things just now, and I haven't calmed down yet." ”
Yuan Zhen has been in the officialdom for a long time, and he is not worried about the prevarication of his two subordinates, and said kindly: "Shi Zhiqiang, you have performed very well today, but this is also official business! Haven't you always wanted to train and lead the team, I will allocate a team of twelve officials from Kang Ming's detachment to you, and listen to your command." As long as you do a good job this time, I will give you credit when you come back, and the next time you have a chance to be promoted, you will be the first to consider!"
Shi Zhiqiang heard this unrealistic verbal promise and replied: "But I haven't passed the head-catching exam, it's too difficult." If you can't pass the exam, even if you remember your merits, you won't be promoted. ”
Mayor Yuan said strongly: "Are you going or not?"
Seeing this, Shi Zhiqiang also knew that it was futile to resist, so he had to agree, who let himself only have this kind of life?
But when the twelve officials gathered in front of him, he listened to the order, and suddenly felt that this messenger was still very majestic, and most of his depressed mood was removed, and he said triumphantly: "Go, go!"
Xia Qiping saw Shi Zhiqiang leading the team, instead of Zhu Hai, who he expected, scolded Mayor Yuan in his heart, and greeted Yuan Lihe's two wives many times in his heart, although he may not really like his eldest wife Cheng Yinghong.
