Chapter 97 This is a secret between us(1/2)
Arriving at Xiugu's house, Li Yuanjing couldn't help but frown a little.
Her house is not big, and it is located in a low-lying land with a very bad location. The key point is that the adobe house is obviously in disrepair.
That is to say, Xiu Gu is diligent and always clearing the snow from the roof. Otherwise, the snow would have crushed the thatch on the roof long ago.
"Master, you are kidding, there is nothing at home... This is the green leaf tea I picked this spring, drink some to warm yourself up..."
At this time, Xiugu brought a bowl of tea and respectfully handed it to Li Yuanjing.
Although this bowl has cracks and is obviously not in good condition, looking at Xiu Gu's appearance, I'm afraid... this is already the best thing in her family...
but.
Although the bowl is not good, the green leaf tea exudes a refreshing fragrance, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
Li Yuanjing took a few sips of green leaf tea and immediately felt much better, but he couldn't help but sigh deeply in his heart.
God, he...he doesn't open his eyes...
"Xiu Gu, I remember that Brother Zhang and the others found out about Ya'er a few days ago, right? What's going on now? If you need money, tell me. Just treat it like I borrowed it from you, and it will be deducted from your wages in the future.
"
Li Yuanjing quickly adjusted and said with a smile.
Although Xiugu had known that Li Yuanjing would say this, she couldn't help but be moved when she heard Li Yuanjing actually say it. She knelt on the ground and said:
"Thank you, boss. Thank you, boss. However, there is no need for this matter..."
"oh?"
"Why is this?"
Li Yuanjing couldn't help but frown.
Xiugu hurriedly explained:
"Master, Ya'er is also lucky. After she was taken away and sold, she was actually sold to the Liu family of Liuji Trading Company in the county. That day, Brother Zhang told the slave what you just said, my boss, but after thinking about it carefully, I
, I still decided not to redeem Ya'er and come back..."
Seeing that Li Yuanjing was puzzled, Xiugu hurriedly explained:
"My boss, it's not that I'm cruel and doesn't want to redeem the girl. It's that the Liu family has always had a good reputation in our Fengcheng County. Their girls can keep up with ordinary ladies. Many people want to sell their daughters.
Even if you go in, you may not be able to get in. Now that Ya'er has entered the Liu family, it is really her good fortune..."
"Otherwise...if that blind thing comes back and sells Ya'er somewhere else, then I'm afraid I won't be able to survive..."
By the end of the story, Xiu Gu had burst into tears.
"..."
Li Yuanjing was speechless for a while...
I wanted to tell Xiu Gu that Hou Wu, that bastard, would never come back in this life, but how could Li Yuanjing say this?
And Liu Haoran and Liu Ji Trading Company actually had such a good reputation among the people. Li Yuanjing really didn't know what to say for a while.
The atmosphere couldn't help but become dull.
"Well……"
At this moment, Xiugu suddenly had an idea and finally remembered why she came to see Li Yuanjing, and said hurriedly:
"Master, I deserve to die. I'm so stupid. I almost forgot about business. Master, please wait a moment. I cleaned up the house yesterday and found some things left by Hou Wu. He hid them very secretly. Although I don't understand,
But it seems to work for you..."
While talking, Xiugu hurriedly went to the Tukang to look for something.
But what she didn't know was that her movements and angles exposed her most gentle curves to Li Yuanjing...
Li Yuanjing was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses and quickly looked away without looking further.
soon.
Xiu Gu found the things Hou Wu had left behind, opened the package and exposed the rags in front of Li Yuanjing, and said hurriedly and respectfully:
"My boss, this is it."
Li Yuanjing was a little absent-minded and didn't pay attention at first, but when he casually flipped through the contents of the package a few times, his body tensed up and he hurriedly rummaged through it carefully.
soon.
Li Yuanjing's expression changed!
In Hou Wu's package, there was actually a secret letter written by a deputy general manager named Wang from Fengcheng County to his family in his hometown in Dong'a!
And the content in this letter is really shocking.
Although the deputy general manager named Wang did not clearly state what kind of threat he had received, this threat seemed to be fatal.
He asked his mother-in-law to repeatedly tell her in the letter to take good care of the elderly and the children. He left them a sum of money in the bank in his hometown that was enough for their living.
And if their eldest son grows up and has no way of earning a decent living, he can take this token and go to a place called Yuelai Inn in Fengcheng County, and someone will give his son a future.
Li Yuanjing couldn't help but gasped after reading it. He quickly took a strange teak carving next to him, which looked like a human but more like a ghost, and examined it carefully.
soon.
Li Yuanjing found four small characters carved at the bottom of the object:
'Maitreya is the real thing!'
Li Yuanjing was busy looking for other things.
Nothing is as horrifying as this letter, but there are obviously traces of blood on the several pieces of copper hairpin jewelry inside...
"Xiu Gu, you, when did you find these things? No, Xiu Gu, do you still remember when Hou Wu got these things back? Or, have you ever felt anything strange about Hou Wu before?
?”
Li Yuanjing's voice was hoarse and he looked at Xiu Gu and asked.
At this time, Xiugu naturally realized that these things were very important to Li Yuanjing, and she frowned and thought about it carefully.
After a long while, he said:
"My boss, slave, I can't say for the moment... However, I remember that about a month ago, Hou Wu seemed to have made a fortune. He hung out in the brothels and casinos of Tieniu Town every day, and even bought unprecedented things for the slave.
Got a copper hairpin..."
As she spoke, she hurriedly took off the copper hairpin on her head and respectfully handed it to Li Yuanjing's hand.
But Xiugu obviously cherished this copper hairpin, so how could Li Yuanjing know anything about it for a moment?
but.
Although Xiugu couldn't provide accurate clues, Li Yuanjing could make a good guess at this time.
Hou Wu should have done this kind of thing often.
And its goal.
Most likely they were gamblers or prostitutes sleeping rough in Tieniu Town.
This letter and token should belong to the subordinate of Vice President Wang named Qian. When he returned to Dong'a, he passed by Tieniu Town and was attacked by Hou Wu and others!
Thinking.
Li Yuanjing suddenly became more enlightened.
in memory.
Although Hou Wu has always been very muddy in the past and is not a good person, at most he only dares to talk nonsense. I have never seen him dare to fight anyone in Quanzi Village.
But last time when Xue An, the third housekeeper of the Xue family, came to collect debts from him, Hou Wu was eager to try with murderous intent...
Very possible!
It was probably during that time that Hou Wu saw blood and became bolder.
And this time!
Although more than a month has passed, given the normal traffic and communication conditions of this era, this letter will reach Dong'a, hundreds of miles away, within a few days...
Even if Vice President Wang's family members reply to a letter to Vice President Wang, I'm afraid the letter will never reach Fengcheng County at this time...
Li Yuanjing suddenly caught something sharply, and there was a cleverness all around him!
It just so happens that Young Master Zhang Zhiji is in Fengcheng County at this time. Is it possible to use this letter as an opportunity to help Li Yuanjing achieve his purpose?
"Xiu Gu, I will keep your credit in mind, but this matter is our secret, you can't tell anyone, do you understand?"
Li Yuanjing packed up the package, squeezed Xiugu's little hand, stuffed more than two taels of silver into her little hand, and whispered into her ear:
"Buy something delicious. I don't like anything too thin."
"My boss..."
Xiugu's pretty face couldn't help but blush, and turned red. I felt pity for it, but wanted to reject it but still welcomed it...
This made Li Yuanjing reluctant to leave for a while...
To be continued...
