Transmigrated into Substitute Bride 'Fu Lang'
Chapter 29 The Ruined Stall
The kind of doting in Gu Lang's tone made Chen Xing feel embarrassed, and he raised his eyes to look at the man sitting behind the desk.
I saw that Gu Lang was looking at him with a tolerant face at this time, as if he was an ignorant child, this association made his ears turn red and hot.
Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing with gentle eyes, and even his tone of voice was extraordinarily gentle, "Why do you have such thoughts?"
Listening to Gu Lang's question, Chen Xing began to feel a little uncomfortable. He groaned for a long time, and finally expressed his thoughts, "I just want to ask."
As for why he wanted to ask, Chen Xing himself couldn't say why.Perhaps it was in a secret corner of his heart, he was so persistent in wanting to know the answer, just to see if he was special in Gu Lang's heart, special enough to make Gu Lang ignore his original principles.
Chen Xing's heart was pounding, watching Gu Lang in front of him stood up, and walked in front of him step by step.
"Since you want to know, then I'll tell you." Gu Lang paused for a moment, his tone extremely cautious,
"I didn't tell people around me my likes and dislikes before because it was a very dangerous thing." It was so dangerous that he would die if he was not careful.
"But now, I can tell you without reservation." Because you are special.
"What I told you, what I like and what I don't like, are all true." Because of these I don't have to lie to you.
"I didn't lie to you." Except a few things you don't need to know.
"So, don't be unhappy." Don't show such an expression.
Chen Xing's heart skipped a beat, feeling the warmth of Gu Lang falling on his head.He raised his eyes to look at him, and bumped into the tenderness in Gu Lang's eyes.
In that gentle gaze, Chen Xing heard himself answer softly, "En."
Afterwards, Chen Xing saw the man in front of him who was half a head taller than him, and smiled slowly. The smile gradually revealed on that slightly pale face was like a gorgeous flower suddenly appearing on the dry desert. He couldn't look away anymore.
Gu Lang watched the obsession gradually emerge in Chen Xing's eyes, and the smile on his lips grew wider. He was very satisfied with Chen Xing's current performance.
"In the future, if you have any questions, just ask me directly. As long as the person asking is you, I will tell you."
This was the last sentence that Chen Xing remembered.
It wasn't until Chen Xing returned to the kitchen and stood by the stove that he suddenly came back to his senses, grabbed the radish on the table and shouted, "Ah——"
Chen Xing felt that he must be extremely stupid just now, not only stared at Gu Lang stupidly for a long time, but even came back without hearing what Gu Lang said clearly.He didn't know what he said later, and how Gu Lang replied, but he was sure that his behavior at that time must have been completely stupid.
Chen Xing was immersed in the condemnation of himself, and he didn't notice Qiu Jiu who was about to come in at the door, the moment he stepped into the door, he suddenly retracted his feet after seeing his behavior.
Qiu Jiu stared at Chen Xing who didn't know what was wrong inside the door, and saw him scratching his hair and franticly, the expression on his face was very subtle, and he didn't understand what happened during the time he was going to rest.
Qiu Jiu hesitated for a while, but took back the foot that was about to step in, and he had better come to help later.
Chen Xing was annoyed for a while, and finally calmed down a bit, staring at the fresh dishes in front of him, forcing himself to forget about the embarrassing incident just now, and concentrate on cooking.
However, when Chen Xing saw the big white radish on the table, he couldn't help but think of Gu Lang, and his face began to turn red again.
Although Chen Xing was a little out of shape today, it did not slow down his cooking speed.After half an hour, he prepared two dishes and one soup for lunch today.
When Chen Xing saw Gu Lang who was sitting by the table, waiting for the meal, he thought of the scene where he was humiliated in front of Gu Lang, and his ears turned red slightly.
Fortunately, Gu Lang didn't show anything special, everything seemed normal, which made Chen Xing gradually calm down.
As soon as he sat down, Chen Xing recommended to Gu Lang, "I made tofu soup with eggs today, try it and see if it tastes good."
After Chen Xing finished speaking, he took Gu Lang's bowl and filled half of it for him.
Gu Lang thanked Chen Xing, took a sip, raised his eyes and smiled at him, and praised him sincerely: "It's delicious, neither salty nor bland, the taste is just right."
Chen Xing immediately smiled like a kitten who had stolen a fish, with happiness written all over his face.
Qiu Jiu sat silently at the side, watching Chen Xing continue to add food to the young master, and his young master sincerely praised Chen Xing's cooking skills after tasting it, and then Chen Xing smiled again.
Qiu Jiu felt that there was an unspeakable atmosphere between the two of them, and there was absolutely no room for him to intervene.
After a meal, several people ate with great enjoyment, especially when Chen Xing saw that Gu Lang really liked to eat what he made, he couldn't hide the happiness on his face.
Seeing his happy appearance, Gu Lang also showed a soft smile.
Chen Xing's good mood lasted until the next day when he went out of the stall.
When Chen Xing and Qiu Jiu went to the stall chatting and laughing, they were immediately stunned when they saw the state of the stall.
I saw the originally built shed, the curtains on both sides seemed to have been cut with a knife, and it looked tattered.And the tables, chairs and benches in the shed were piled up in a mess, and it was obvious that most of them were missing arms and legs, and the middle of the table was cut off to leave an empty piece.
Chen Xing had been in the booth for so long, and he had never encountered such a thing, and he couldn't react for a while.
But Qiu Jiu was not as good-tempered as Chen Xing. The moment he saw those things being destroyed, his eyes immediately turned cold, and a burst of hostility emanated from his body.Who is so brave to destroy this place when they are not around.
After being stunned for a moment, Chen Xing quickly came to his senses, pursed his lips, and said to Qiu Jiu who was next to him: "Let's clean up this place first, and find a way to find out what happened after the items are sold out."
Qiu Jiu, who was still angry at first, quickly calmed down after hearing Chen Xing's words, and nodded to him as he agreed to his words.
After Chen Xing finished speaking, he took the lead in walking into the shed that had been ruined beyond recognition, and began to clean it up little by little. During the cleaning, he even began to rejoice that the degree of damage to these things was not serious and could still be repaired. Yes, otherwise he will spend a lot of money again.
Just as Chen Xing was sighing and packing up things with Qiu Jiu, a group of officials not far away came towards them.
When Chen Xing saw this group of uninvited officials, a look of vigilance subconsciously appeared on his face.
The leading captain tried his best to force a smile, trying to look a little kinder, he looked at Chen Xing and asked, "Are you the owner of this stall?"
Seeing that he didn't seem to be looking for trouble, Chen Xing nodded hesitantly.
Seeing that Chen Xing responded, the team leader smiled brighter, and said in a tone of admiration: "When we were patrolling last night, we saw someone smashing your stall, so we arrested them all. gone."
Listening to his words, Chen Xing felt a little unbelievable. He was just annoyed about who smashed his business, but now he heard that those people were arrested.
The team leader looked at Chen Xing's shocked look, and continued: "Those people are in prison now, do you want to go and see?"
Chen Xing felt that the team leader seemed a little too attentive, and he didn't know whether the ancient officials were so dedicated to their duties, so he asked cautiously: "Can I go and see?"
Hearing Chen Xing's question, the leader slapped his hands and said excitedly, "Of course you can go and see!"
After finishing speaking, under Chen Xing's suspicious eyes, the team leader also seemed to realize that his behavior was a bit too attentive, coughed, and said in a slightly cold tone, "As a victim, you can naturally go and see. "
Chen Xing hesitated for a moment, but still almost nodded at the officer in front of him. He also wanted to know who had an enmity with him and treated him like this.
When Chen Xing brought Qiu Jiu to the place where the prisoners were held along with the officials, he immediately saw a man in his early 40s standing at the gate of the prison.
The leading official trotted over and whispered something in the man's ear, and then Chen Xing saw the man's gaze sweeping around him and Qiu Jiu.
Soon, the man strode over, looked at Chen Xingke and said politely: "I am the master here, Xu Ya."
Hearing his position, Chen Xing was surprised but also a little cautious, and whispered to him: "Master Xu, hello."
Seeing Chen Xing's restrained appearance, Master Xu thought of something, and showed him a kind smile, and said, "My lord is here to see the prisoner, right? Please come with me."
Chen Xing nodded and followed him into the prison door.
As soon as he entered, Chen Xing felt a chill and shivered uncontrollably.
After following the master to a prison cell and seeing the four bloody people lying inside, he was even more shocked.
The master looked at Chen Xing's frightened and wide-eyed eyes, smiled at him comfortingly, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, my lord, this injury only looks serious, but it's just some flesh wounds."
Chen Xing pursed his lips, but did not speak.
The master was not angry when he saw that he didn't answer, and continued: "These four people were caught on the spot when they smashed your booth yesterday, what do you want to do?"
Chen Xing hesitated for a moment, looked at him and asked hesitantly: "How did you deal with it in the past?"
The master stroked his short beard, and said in an inscrutable way: "In the past, we ordered them to pay for damages like this, and then put them in prison for ten days. But if you have other ideas, we can do it." cooperative."
When Chen Xing heard the second half of his sentence, he subconsciously felt that they wanted to bribe them himself. He shook his head quickly and said directly: "Just follow your regulations! They have already been beaten like this, and there is no chasing after them." It is necessary to be reluctant."
The master obviously didn't expect him to say this, after Chen Xing finished speaking, there was a moment of stupefaction on his face, but he quickly returned to normal, but he still had some doubts in his expression, "Okay, since the young master wants to do this , then we will do as you say.”
Just when the master was about to invite Chen Xing out, Chen Xing suddenly thought of something, and asked hesitantly, "Can I ask them a few questions?"
Master Xu smiled at him, "Of course."
Until Chen Xing came out of the cell, he felt that the people in the yamen were too polite, and even promised him that they would send him over after receiving the compensation.
Chen Xing turned his head to look at the tall yamen plaque, and whispered to Qiu Jiu next to him, "Do all the officials here love the people like their sons?"
Hearing Chen Xing's question, Qiu Jiu turned to look at Chen Xing who was full of confusion, with mixed feelings in his heart, and finally looked at him and choked out a sentence, "The newly appointed magistrate is a good official."
Hearing this, Chen Xing nodded and agreed: "He can teach all the officials under his command so well, he is indeed a good official."
But soon, Chen Xing began to worry about another thing, that is, he had just learned from the mouths of those gangsters who couldn't speak clearly why they wanted to smash his stall, and who they were ordered them to do it.
It's just that Chen Xing has never heard of that person at all, and he doesn't know what kind of feud he has with that person, and he doesn't understand why she did that.And the most important point, now that he knows who did it, what to do next is also a problem.
Chen Xing struggled all the way back to the small stall, but as soon as he passed, he saw a group of people around the stall, including a few familiar faces, who were diners who often came to him to buy things on weekdays.
Seeing them all waiting at the door of the stall, Chen Xing quickened his pace.
Those people saw Chen Xing approaching, and Aunt Sheng who was at the front yelled loudly, "Boss, why are you here so late today?"
Hearing this familiar loud voice, Chen Xing knew that the person who came was Mrs. Sheng who often came to buy food from him, and he said repeatedly: "Sorry, I was delayed for a while just now."
Upon hearing his words, Mrs. Sheng raised her voice and said, "We've been waiting for you here for so long, you should give us more money later."
Chen Xing felt that although Aunt Sheng likes to take advantage of things on weekdays, she is not a bad person, so after hearing what she said, she replied in a very good temper: "Okay, I will call you some more today. .”
After receiving Chen Xing's promise, Aunt Sheng showed a big smile on her face, but soon she looked at the destroyed tables, chairs and benches behind Chen Xing, and couldn't help but screamed, "Boss, you What's going on in this shed?"
Chen Xing handed Aunt Sheng what she wanted, and said helplessly, "It's like this since I came here today. I haven't had time to pack it up yet, so you'll laugh at me."
The grand lady looked at the good-tempered Chen Xing, patted her thigh, and complained for him: "Oh, someone must have seen your business is good, so they are jealous to make trouble. Don't worry, there are so many of us, we must Let me find out who did it, and help you get justice."
Chen Xing looked at Aunt Sheng's righteous indignation, but felt that she was a bit cute at the moment, he looked at her and smiled, and said softly: "I haven't been here for a long time, I don't have the skills of you, Auntie, so I can only trouble Auntie is you."
Hearing Chen Xing's compliment, Aunt Sheng seemed to have won a fight, she puffed her chest out and said with high spirits: "You don't even look at who I am, boss, don't worry, I will definitely give you Find out who moved your stall."
However, Mrs. Sheng's generosity only lasted for a few seconds, and soon she showed her usual shrewd look, looked at Chen Xing and said, "Then I will help you find someone, and when I come to buy things in the future, you have to give me more money." I'll hit a little bit!"
Chen Xing saw that she did not forget to take advantage of her good deeds, and she was a little bit dumbfounded, "Ma'am, don't worry! I will definitely give you more when the time comes."
Hearing this, Aunt Sheng finally carried the bowl and left contentedly.
After being disturbed by Mrs. Sheng, Chen Xing was not as depressed as before. He quickly adjusted his state and tried his best to sell out all the ingredients for today.
When the last item was sold, Chen Xing closed the stall and watched Qiu Jiu hesitate for a while, but still made up his mind and said, "Qiu Jiu, we won't go back now, you can accompany me to a place first."
Qiu Jiu was a little confused, but seeing the serious expression on Chen Xing's face, she nodded and agreed, "Okay."
A quarter of an hour later, Qiu Jiu looked at the small restaurant opposite with a bleak business, and had some guesses about what they were doing this trip.
Sure enough, when Qiu Jiu turned to look at Chen Xing beside him, he took a deep breath, put on a serious expression, and strode towards the restaurant.
Boss Qiao, who was still soliciting customers and smiling at the front of the shop, was flamboyant, but the moment he saw Chen Xing, his face turned cold, and even his eyes became sharper.
"What are you doing here, we don't welcome you here."
Faced with Boss Qiao's sarcasm, Chen Xing didn't care very much, and even laughed softly, with a bit of laziness in his tone,
"Yo, you are open for business here, so there is no reason why you don't welcome guests? You don't have many customers left here, and you still have to drive people out. Do you still want to do business?"
Hearing Chen Xing's sarcasm, Boss Qiao's face became more and more ugly, looking at him as if poisoned.
However, Chen Xing seemed to have not seen her expression of wanting to eat people, and walked slowly in front of her, stared at her ugly face, and sneered, "Boss Qiao probably doesn't know, why did I do this this time?" come on?"
Hearing Chen Xing's words, looking at the brother in front of her who was different from what she had known before, Boss Qiao subconsciously took a step back, and insisted: "What nonsense are you talking about here? I just said it , we don't welcome you here, you get out now."
Chen Xing watched her tilt her head slightly, and asked innocently, "Don't you want to know where the four people you called yesterday are now?"
Boss Qiao's eyes were a bit flustered, and the aloof aura that had been maintained on his face gradually burst, he stared at Chen Xing and said in an unstable tone: "You, what are you talking about, I don't know at all."
Chen Xing looked at the panicked woman in front of him, and continued: "They are all locked up in prison now. When I went to see them, they were being beaten to pieces."
When he said this, Chen Xing seemed to have thought of something funny, and a strange brilliance even appeared on his face.
Boss Qiao looked at him, and the indifference on his face gradually became unbearable. He asked Chen Xing sharply, "What exactly do you want?"
Chen Xing watched her curl her lips, a bit of toughness appeared on that pretty face, and she took a step closer to Boss Qiao, and said coldly, "I came here just to tell you, I know what you do what."
The woman's eyes were full of panic.
Chen Xing continued: "I also have the ability to do something to you, especially now that you don't have any backing."
The woman suddenly raised her head and looked at him with disbelief in her eyes.
Chen Xing raised his eyebrows, and said in a cold tone: "Believe it or not, there will never be a next time. If there is a next time, I don't think I will let you go so easily."
Chen Xing didn't wait for her next reaction, turned around and left.
Boss Qiao stared at Chen Xing's leaving back, squeezed the handkerchief in his hand, his face was full of horror, why didn't she know that there was such a relationship behind Chen Xing.
Then she remembered that when she went to see Chen Xing that day, those officials who obediently followed in line, and the thugs who were arrested on the spot yesterday, she still felt a little panic in her heart.She even started to feel lucky that Chen Xing only knew that she had someone smash up her booth, but she didn't know anything else.
Boss Qiao stared at the direction where Chen Xing was leaving, and was a little annoyed why she provoked Chen Xing out of jealousy. If he remembered her and came to trouble her later, she couldn't handle it at all.No, she has to find a way.
Unaware of what he said, Boss Qiao instantly became like an ant on a hot pot. After walking out of the street, Chen Xing immediately looked like a deflated ball. Then he relaxed, and let out a long breath, "It was really dangerous just now!"
Qiu Jiu looked at the difference between Chen Xing before and after, and asked hesitantly, "Chen Xing?"
Chen Xing turned his head to look at Qiu Jiu, his face faded from the sharpness just now, and he turned back to the usual gentle brother. He looked at Qiu Jiu with bright eyes and asked, "What do you think of my behavior just now?"
Qiu Jiu was a little confused, but nodded honestly, and praised: "Very good, I'm so stupid."
Hearing Qiu Jiu's words, Chen Xing patted his head in embarrassment, and said shyly, "That's good, I'm afraid I've screwed up my performance just now."
Qiu Jiu looked at him with a strange tone, "You just now..."
Chen Xing looked at him with a bright smile, showing a mouthful of small white teeth, and said with great interest, "I'm just pretending!"
Qiu Jiu's eyes were very complicated, he didn't expect Chen Xing to be such Chen Xing.
Chen Xing seemed to be still immersed in the success just now, and was so excited that he couldn't stop. When he was about to arrive at the Gu Mansion, he suddenly thought of something, looked at Qiu Jiu with a strange expression beside him and said:
"When you go back, don't tell Gu Lang about this! He is not in good health, and talking about these things will scare him."
Looking at the innocent expression on Chen Xing's face, Qiu Jiu endured for a long time, and finally choked out a word, "En."
The author has something to say: Qiu Jiu: Often because I know too much, I'm on the verge of internal injuries.
I saw that Gu Lang was looking at him with a tolerant face at this time, as if he was an ignorant child, this association made his ears turn red and hot.
Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing with gentle eyes, and even his tone of voice was extraordinarily gentle, "Why do you have such thoughts?"
Listening to Gu Lang's question, Chen Xing began to feel a little uncomfortable. He groaned for a long time, and finally expressed his thoughts, "I just want to ask."
As for why he wanted to ask, Chen Xing himself couldn't say why.Perhaps it was in a secret corner of his heart, he was so persistent in wanting to know the answer, just to see if he was special in Gu Lang's heart, special enough to make Gu Lang ignore his original principles.
Chen Xing's heart was pounding, watching Gu Lang in front of him stood up, and walked in front of him step by step.
"Since you want to know, then I'll tell you." Gu Lang paused for a moment, his tone extremely cautious,
"I didn't tell people around me my likes and dislikes before because it was a very dangerous thing." It was so dangerous that he would die if he was not careful.
"But now, I can tell you without reservation." Because you are special.
"What I told you, what I like and what I don't like, are all true." Because of these I don't have to lie to you.
"I didn't lie to you." Except a few things you don't need to know.
"So, don't be unhappy." Don't show such an expression.
Chen Xing's heart skipped a beat, feeling the warmth of Gu Lang falling on his head.He raised his eyes to look at him, and bumped into the tenderness in Gu Lang's eyes.
In that gentle gaze, Chen Xing heard himself answer softly, "En."
Afterwards, Chen Xing saw the man in front of him who was half a head taller than him, and smiled slowly. The smile gradually revealed on that slightly pale face was like a gorgeous flower suddenly appearing on the dry desert. He couldn't look away anymore.
Gu Lang watched the obsession gradually emerge in Chen Xing's eyes, and the smile on his lips grew wider. He was very satisfied with Chen Xing's current performance.
"In the future, if you have any questions, just ask me directly. As long as the person asking is you, I will tell you."
This was the last sentence that Chen Xing remembered.
It wasn't until Chen Xing returned to the kitchen and stood by the stove that he suddenly came back to his senses, grabbed the radish on the table and shouted, "Ah——"
Chen Xing felt that he must be extremely stupid just now, not only stared at Gu Lang stupidly for a long time, but even came back without hearing what Gu Lang said clearly.He didn't know what he said later, and how Gu Lang replied, but he was sure that his behavior at that time must have been completely stupid.
Chen Xing was immersed in the condemnation of himself, and he didn't notice Qiu Jiu who was about to come in at the door, the moment he stepped into the door, he suddenly retracted his feet after seeing his behavior.
Qiu Jiu stared at Chen Xing who didn't know what was wrong inside the door, and saw him scratching his hair and franticly, the expression on his face was very subtle, and he didn't understand what happened during the time he was going to rest.
Qiu Jiu hesitated for a while, but took back the foot that was about to step in, and he had better come to help later.
Chen Xing was annoyed for a while, and finally calmed down a bit, staring at the fresh dishes in front of him, forcing himself to forget about the embarrassing incident just now, and concentrate on cooking.
However, when Chen Xing saw the big white radish on the table, he couldn't help but think of Gu Lang, and his face began to turn red again.
Although Chen Xing was a little out of shape today, it did not slow down his cooking speed.After half an hour, he prepared two dishes and one soup for lunch today.
When Chen Xing saw Gu Lang who was sitting by the table, waiting for the meal, he thought of the scene where he was humiliated in front of Gu Lang, and his ears turned red slightly.
Fortunately, Gu Lang didn't show anything special, everything seemed normal, which made Chen Xing gradually calm down.
As soon as he sat down, Chen Xing recommended to Gu Lang, "I made tofu soup with eggs today, try it and see if it tastes good."
After Chen Xing finished speaking, he took Gu Lang's bowl and filled half of it for him.
Gu Lang thanked Chen Xing, took a sip, raised his eyes and smiled at him, and praised him sincerely: "It's delicious, neither salty nor bland, the taste is just right."
Chen Xing immediately smiled like a kitten who had stolen a fish, with happiness written all over his face.
Qiu Jiu sat silently at the side, watching Chen Xing continue to add food to the young master, and his young master sincerely praised Chen Xing's cooking skills after tasting it, and then Chen Xing smiled again.
Qiu Jiu felt that there was an unspeakable atmosphere between the two of them, and there was absolutely no room for him to intervene.
After a meal, several people ate with great enjoyment, especially when Chen Xing saw that Gu Lang really liked to eat what he made, he couldn't hide the happiness on his face.
Seeing his happy appearance, Gu Lang also showed a soft smile.
Chen Xing's good mood lasted until the next day when he went out of the stall.
When Chen Xing and Qiu Jiu went to the stall chatting and laughing, they were immediately stunned when they saw the state of the stall.
I saw the originally built shed, the curtains on both sides seemed to have been cut with a knife, and it looked tattered.And the tables, chairs and benches in the shed were piled up in a mess, and it was obvious that most of them were missing arms and legs, and the middle of the table was cut off to leave an empty piece.
Chen Xing had been in the booth for so long, and he had never encountered such a thing, and he couldn't react for a while.
But Qiu Jiu was not as good-tempered as Chen Xing. The moment he saw those things being destroyed, his eyes immediately turned cold, and a burst of hostility emanated from his body.Who is so brave to destroy this place when they are not around.
After being stunned for a moment, Chen Xing quickly came to his senses, pursed his lips, and said to Qiu Jiu who was next to him: "Let's clean up this place first, and find a way to find out what happened after the items are sold out."
Qiu Jiu, who was still angry at first, quickly calmed down after hearing Chen Xing's words, and nodded to him as he agreed to his words.
After Chen Xing finished speaking, he took the lead in walking into the shed that had been ruined beyond recognition, and began to clean it up little by little. During the cleaning, he even began to rejoice that the degree of damage to these things was not serious and could still be repaired. Yes, otherwise he will spend a lot of money again.
Just as Chen Xing was sighing and packing up things with Qiu Jiu, a group of officials not far away came towards them.
When Chen Xing saw this group of uninvited officials, a look of vigilance subconsciously appeared on his face.
The leading captain tried his best to force a smile, trying to look a little kinder, he looked at Chen Xing and asked, "Are you the owner of this stall?"
Seeing that he didn't seem to be looking for trouble, Chen Xing nodded hesitantly.
Seeing that Chen Xing responded, the team leader smiled brighter, and said in a tone of admiration: "When we were patrolling last night, we saw someone smashing your stall, so we arrested them all. gone."
Listening to his words, Chen Xing felt a little unbelievable. He was just annoyed about who smashed his business, but now he heard that those people were arrested.
The team leader looked at Chen Xing's shocked look, and continued: "Those people are in prison now, do you want to go and see?"
Chen Xing felt that the team leader seemed a little too attentive, and he didn't know whether the ancient officials were so dedicated to their duties, so he asked cautiously: "Can I go and see?"
Hearing Chen Xing's question, the leader slapped his hands and said excitedly, "Of course you can go and see!"
After finishing speaking, under Chen Xing's suspicious eyes, the team leader also seemed to realize that his behavior was a bit too attentive, coughed, and said in a slightly cold tone, "As a victim, you can naturally go and see. "
Chen Xing hesitated for a moment, but still almost nodded at the officer in front of him. He also wanted to know who had an enmity with him and treated him like this.
When Chen Xing brought Qiu Jiu to the place where the prisoners were held along with the officials, he immediately saw a man in his early 40s standing at the gate of the prison.
The leading official trotted over and whispered something in the man's ear, and then Chen Xing saw the man's gaze sweeping around him and Qiu Jiu.
Soon, the man strode over, looked at Chen Xingke and said politely: "I am the master here, Xu Ya."
Hearing his position, Chen Xing was surprised but also a little cautious, and whispered to him: "Master Xu, hello."
Seeing Chen Xing's restrained appearance, Master Xu thought of something, and showed him a kind smile, and said, "My lord is here to see the prisoner, right? Please come with me."
Chen Xing nodded and followed him into the prison door.
As soon as he entered, Chen Xing felt a chill and shivered uncontrollably.
After following the master to a prison cell and seeing the four bloody people lying inside, he was even more shocked.
The master looked at Chen Xing's frightened and wide-eyed eyes, smiled at him comfortingly, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, my lord, this injury only looks serious, but it's just some flesh wounds."
Chen Xing pursed his lips, but did not speak.
The master was not angry when he saw that he didn't answer, and continued: "These four people were caught on the spot when they smashed your booth yesterday, what do you want to do?"
Chen Xing hesitated for a moment, looked at him and asked hesitantly: "How did you deal with it in the past?"
The master stroked his short beard, and said in an inscrutable way: "In the past, we ordered them to pay for damages like this, and then put them in prison for ten days. But if you have other ideas, we can do it." cooperative."
When Chen Xing heard the second half of his sentence, he subconsciously felt that they wanted to bribe them himself. He shook his head quickly and said directly: "Just follow your regulations! They have already been beaten like this, and there is no chasing after them." It is necessary to be reluctant."
The master obviously didn't expect him to say this, after Chen Xing finished speaking, there was a moment of stupefaction on his face, but he quickly returned to normal, but he still had some doubts in his expression, "Okay, since the young master wants to do this , then we will do as you say.”
Just when the master was about to invite Chen Xing out, Chen Xing suddenly thought of something, and asked hesitantly, "Can I ask them a few questions?"
Master Xu smiled at him, "Of course."
Until Chen Xing came out of the cell, he felt that the people in the yamen were too polite, and even promised him that they would send him over after receiving the compensation.
Chen Xing turned his head to look at the tall yamen plaque, and whispered to Qiu Jiu next to him, "Do all the officials here love the people like their sons?"
Hearing Chen Xing's question, Qiu Jiu turned to look at Chen Xing who was full of confusion, with mixed feelings in his heart, and finally looked at him and choked out a sentence, "The newly appointed magistrate is a good official."
Hearing this, Chen Xing nodded and agreed: "He can teach all the officials under his command so well, he is indeed a good official."
But soon, Chen Xing began to worry about another thing, that is, he had just learned from the mouths of those gangsters who couldn't speak clearly why they wanted to smash his stall, and who they were ordered them to do it.
It's just that Chen Xing has never heard of that person at all, and he doesn't know what kind of feud he has with that person, and he doesn't understand why she did that.And the most important point, now that he knows who did it, what to do next is also a problem.
Chen Xing struggled all the way back to the small stall, but as soon as he passed, he saw a group of people around the stall, including a few familiar faces, who were diners who often came to him to buy things on weekdays.
Seeing them all waiting at the door of the stall, Chen Xing quickened his pace.
Those people saw Chen Xing approaching, and Aunt Sheng who was at the front yelled loudly, "Boss, why are you here so late today?"
Hearing this familiar loud voice, Chen Xing knew that the person who came was Mrs. Sheng who often came to buy food from him, and he said repeatedly: "Sorry, I was delayed for a while just now."
Upon hearing his words, Mrs. Sheng raised her voice and said, "We've been waiting for you here for so long, you should give us more money later."
Chen Xing felt that although Aunt Sheng likes to take advantage of things on weekdays, she is not a bad person, so after hearing what she said, she replied in a very good temper: "Okay, I will call you some more today. .”
After receiving Chen Xing's promise, Aunt Sheng showed a big smile on her face, but soon she looked at the destroyed tables, chairs and benches behind Chen Xing, and couldn't help but screamed, "Boss, you What's going on in this shed?"
Chen Xing handed Aunt Sheng what she wanted, and said helplessly, "It's like this since I came here today. I haven't had time to pack it up yet, so you'll laugh at me."
The grand lady looked at the good-tempered Chen Xing, patted her thigh, and complained for him: "Oh, someone must have seen your business is good, so they are jealous to make trouble. Don't worry, there are so many of us, we must Let me find out who did it, and help you get justice."
Chen Xing looked at Aunt Sheng's righteous indignation, but felt that she was a bit cute at the moment, he looked at her and smiled, and said softly: "I haven't been here for a long time, I don't have the skills of you, Auntie, so I can only trouble Auntie is you."
Hearing Chen Xing's compliment, Aunt Sheng seemed to have won a fight, she puffed her chest out and said with high spirits: "You don't even look at who I am, boss, don't worry, I will definitely give you Find out who moved your stall."
However, Mrs. Sheng's generosity only lasted for a few seconds, and soon she showed her usual shrewd look, looked at Chen Xing and said, "Then I will help you find someone, and when I come to buy things in the future, you have to give me more money." I'll hit a little bit!"
Chen Xing saw that she did not forget to take advantage of her good deeds, and she was a little bit dumbfounded, "Ma'am, don't worry! I will definitely give you more when the time comes."
Hearing this, Aunt Sheng finally carried the bowl and left contentedly.
After being disturbed by Mrs. Sheng, Chen Xing was not as depressed as before. He quickly adjusted his state and tried his best to sell out all the ingredients for today.
When the last item was sold, Chen Xing closed the stall and watched Qiu Jiu hesitate for a while, but still made up his mind and said, "Qiu Jiu, we won't go back now, you can accompany me to a place first."
Qiu Jiu was a little confused, but seeing the serious expression on Chen Xing's face, she nodded and agreed, "Okay."
A quarter of an hour later, Qiu Jiu looked at the small restaurant opposite with a bleak business, and had some guesses about what they were doing this trip.
Sure enough, when Qiu Jiu turned to look at Chen Xing beside him, he took a deep breath, put on a serious expression, and strode towards the restaurant.
Boss Qiao, who was still soliciting customers and smiling at the front of the shop, was flamboyant, but the moment he saw Chen Xing, his face turned cold, and even his eyes became sharper.
"What are you doing here, we don't welcome you here."
Faced with Boss Qiao's sarcasm, Chen Xing didn't care very much, and even laughed softly, with a bit of laziness in his tone,
"Yo, you are open for business here, so there is no reason why you don't welcome guests? You don't have many customers left here, and you still have to drive people out. Do you still want to do business?"
Hearing Chen Xing's sarcasm, Boss Qiao's face became more and more ugly, looking at him as if poisoned.
However, Chen Xing seemed to have not seen her expression of wanting to eat people, and walked slowly in front of her, stared at her ugly face, and sneered, "Boss Qiao probably doesn't know, why did I do this this time?" come on?"
Hearing Chen Xing's words, looking at the brother in front of her who was different from what she had known before, Boss Qiao subconsciously took a step back, and insisted: "What nonsense are you talking about here? I just said it , we don't welcome you here, you get out now."
Chen Xing watched her tilt her head slightly, and asked innocently, "Don't you want to know where the four people you called yesterday are now?"
Boss Qiao's eyes were a bit flustered, and the aloof aura that had been maintained on his face gradually burst, he stared at Chen Xing and said in an unstable tone: "You, what are you talking about, I don't know at all."
Chen Xing looked at the panicked woman in front of him, and continued: "They are all locked up in prison now. When I went to see them, they were being beaten to pieces."
When he said this, Chen Xing seemed to have thought of something funny, and a strange brilliance even appeared on his face.
Boss Qiao looked at him, and the indifference on his face gradually became unbearable. He asked Chen Xing sharply, "What exactly do you want?"
Chen Xing watched her curl her lips, a bit of toughness appeared on that pretty face, and she took a step closer to Boss Qiao, and said coldly, "I came here just to tell you, I know what you do what."
The woman's eyes were full of panic.
Chen Xing continued: "I also have the ability to do something to you, especially now that you don't have any backing."
The woman suddenly raised her head and looked at him with disbelief in her eyes.
Chen Xing raised his eyebrows, and said in a cold tone: "Believe it or not, there will never be a next time. If there is a next time, I don't think I will let you go so easily."
Chen Xing didn't wait for her next reaction, turned around and left.
Boss Qiao stared at Chen Xing's leaving back, squeezed the handkerchief in his hand, his face was full of horror, why didn't she know that there was such a relationship behind Chen Xing.
Then she remembered that when she went to see Chen Xing that day, those officials who obediently followed in line, and the thugs who were arrested on the spot yesterday, she still felt a little panic in her heart.She even started to feel lucky that Chen Xing only knew that she had someone smash up her booth, but she didn't know anything else.
Boss Qiao stared at the direction where Chen Xing was leaving, and was a little annoyed why she provoked Chen Xing out of jealousy. If he remembered her and came to trouble her later, she couldn't handle it at all.No, she has to find a way.
Unaware of what he said, Boss Qiao instantly became like an ant on a hot pot. After walking out of the street, Chen Xing immediately looked like a deflated ball. Then he relaxed, and let out a long breath, "It was really dangerous just now!"
Qiu Jiu looked at the difference between Chen Xing before and after, and asked hesitantly, "Chen Xing?"
Chen Xing turned his head to look at Qiu Jiu, his face faded from the sharpness just now, and he turned back to the usual gentle brother. He looked at Qiu Jiu with bright eyes and asked, "What do you think of my behavior just now?"
Qiu Jiu was a little confused, but nodded honestly, and praised: "Very good, I'm so stupid."
Hearing Qiu Jiu's words, Chen Xing patted his head in embarrassment, and said shyly, "That's good, I'm afraid I've screwed up my performance just now."
Qiu Jiu looked at him with a strange tone, "You just now..."
Chen Xing looked at him with a bright smile, showing a mouthful of small white teeth, and said with great interest, "I'm just pretending!"
Qiu Jiu's eyes were very complicated, he didn't expect Chen Xing to be such Chen Xing.
Chen Xing seemed to be still immersed in the success just now, and was so excited that he couldn't stop. When he was about to arrive at the Gu Mansion, he suddenly thought of something, looked at Qiu Jiu with a strange expression beside him and said:
"When you go back, don't tell Gu Lang about this! He is not in good health, and talking about these things will scare him."
Looking at the innocent expression on Chen Xing's face, Qiu Jiu endured for a long time, and finally choked out a word, "En."
The author has something to say: Qiu Jiu: Often because I know too much, I'm on the verge of internal injuries.
