A knife in love

Chapter 1303

After Steward Wang left in a hurry, Wang Xiaoyu led Li Qiufeng into the main hall of the backyard with a smile.After asking Li Qiufeng to sit down, she called a maid and told her to clean up the best guest room in the backyard.The servant woman agreed and hurried away.Li Qiufeng knew that Wang Xiaoyu was preparing a resting place for himself, and was about to say that there was no need to spend such a lot of trouble, but saw Wang Xiaoyu raised his hands and said happily: "Haha, I am the biggest in Wangjiazhuang right now!"

Seeing her appearance like this, Li Qiufeng thought to himself, although Miss Wang is smart and quick-witted, she is a young girl after all, and it is human nature to show emotions.

Murong Danyan smiled and said: "Brother Li, I was going to look for you at the pier today. Later, the owner of the Wang Zhuang came back from the city and said that the boats on the pier were mysteriously missing. All the boats have been found. I think the big boat that Brother Li was on is parked at the pier. I am afraid that it is gone, so I can only go to the pier in vain. I was discussing with Sister Xiaoyu this afternoon where to find Brother Li. I didn’t expect you It came suddenly, so sister Xiaoyu and I don't have to guess wildly."

Wang Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Young Master Li, you don't know how anxious Sister Murong is. If I hadn't stopped her, she would have gone to the county to look for you."

Murong Danyan blushed and said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about! When did I get anxious?"

Wang Xiaoyu stuck out his tongue and said with a smile, "You're in a hurry now! Look at your face, it's like a piece of red cloth. Hee hee, hee hee."

Seeing that Murong Danyan was extremely embarrassed, Li Qiufeng was worried that Wang Xiaoyu would say something that would make her unhappy, so he hurriedly said: "Miss Wang, the Yamen wants Guizhuang to send people into the city to help. It seems that the owner of Wangzhuang is under a lot of pressure. ... If there is anything Li can help with, please just say it, Miss Wang."

Wang Xiaoyu curled her lips, and said with disdain: "The Yamen have extorted a lot of money from our Wangjiazhuang over the years. Naturally, my father has a way to deal with them, so don't worry about Mr. Li. It's the mud-legged people in Majiazhuang who are arrogant." Very much, we have already had two fights with our Zhuang Ding today. If this group of people still stay in the village, I am afraid that they will cause big trouble. My father wanted to screen these people today and drive out some leaders from the Zhuangzi , but was called to work by the Yamen again. Alas, I have to trouble Uncle Wang to appease these bastards."

When Li Qiufeng heard Wang Xiaoyu talk about this matter, he suddenly remembered the mysterious boy who came to Wang's Village with everyone in Majiazhuang.He thought to himself, this young man's words and deeds are very unusual, he is definitely not an ordinary man who puts rafts, he may come to Wangjiazhuang for another purpose.If there is a chance, I would like to inquire about his origin.

Seeing that Li Qiufeng remained silent, Wang Xiaoyu felt a little strange, and said, "Young Master Li, am I wrong?"

Only then did Li Qiufeng come back to his senses, shook his head hastily, and said in his mouth, "Miss Wang is overwhelmed. Li remembered another matter, so he was a little distracted. I'm really sorry."

Wang Xiaoyu looked at Li Qiufeng with his head tilted, and said with a smile: "Brother Li, I heard from Sister Murong that you are an extremely intelligent person. The things that make you so engrossed must not be small things. Tell us Listen, maybe Sister Murong and I can help."

Li Qiufeng knew that Wang Xiaoyu was clever and witty, and this matter was related to the safety of Wang's family village, so there was no need to hide it from her.So he thought for a while, and then said: "Miss Wang, do you still remember the young man in Majiazhuang?"

Wang Xiaoyu was taken aback, frowned, and said, "Is that the one who is going to fight with me, that squinting kid?"

Murong Danyan smiled and said: "Sister Xiaoyu, it seems that you never forget that boy. Otherwise, you wouldn't know who he is as soon as Brother Li mentions him."

Wang Xiaoyu blushed, and glared at Murong Danyan pretending to be annoyed, and said, "I'm not like Sister Murong, because I want to see someone, I'm so restless that I can't even eat!"

The two were laughing and laughing for a while, and Wang Xiaoyu suddenly remembered that he was talking to Li Qiufeng just now, but was interrupted by Murong Danyan, feeling very embarrassed, stopped laughing quickly, and said seriously: "Mr. Li, what are you doing?" Suddenly remembered that kid?"

Li Qiufeng said: "I see that this young man has an extraordinary background, he is definitely not an ordinary raft man. It's just that he can't figure out why he would get mixed up among these common people with his skills."

When Li Qiufeng said this, he paused for a while, took a look at Wang Xiaoyu, and then said: "This young man has martial arts, and his martial arts are not weak. What's more rare is that he is calm in his work and decent in words and deeds. Although he is only sixteen or seventeen At this young age, he speaks calmly and acts in a calm and sophisticated manner. I am worried that he has other plans in Wangjiazhuang, and things will be difficult to handle in that case."

Wang Xiaoyu listened to Li Qiufeng's solemn words, but his expression became serious.She thought for a moment, nodded, and said: "This kid is really weird, he is very different from those mud-legged people. When I went to see these people in the morning, I secretly observed his behavior. Those mud-legged people are making noise , only this kid is sitting in the corner silently. He seems to be drowsy, but his eyes seem to be closed, and he sees everything around him."

Murong Danyan was a little surprised when he heard Wang Xiaoyu's words.She looked Wang Xiaoyu up and down, made a surprised expression on purpose, and said in her mouth: "Ah! Sister Xiaoyu, when did you go to see him? How come I don't know at all?"

Wang Xiaoyu blushed, spat on Murong Danyan, and said, "I'm not going to see him! Zhuang Ding came to report early in the morning, saying that those mud-legged people disliked the food we gave them. , got together and made a noise. Our Zhuang Ding went to persuade, but the two sides disagreed, and even started fighting. They were so many, our Zhuang Ding suffered a disadvantage. After I heard this, I hurried to deal with the matter What, where did you go to see this kid?!"

Li Qiufeng didn't care about these children's personal affairs, and said in a deep voice: "Miss Wang, this person's origin is suspicious, and you must not be careless. After the owner of Wang Zhuang comes back, you need to remind him to beware of this person."

Wang Xiaoyu said: "Thank you, Mr. Li, for reminding me. But even if this kid is very scheming, he is still young, so he can't make any big waves. Besides, our Zhuangzi is no better than in the past. With the help of masters such as Mr. Li and Sister Murong, even if we If someone wants to take advantage of our Zhuangzi, that is their own court of death. Haha, haha."

Seeing Wang Xiaoyu's absence, Li Qiufeng was about to speak out to persuade him, but he heard footsteps outside the door, but three servants came in with food trays.Li Qiufeng had no choice but to keep silent.Seeing the three servants put the food and wine on the table, they turned around and left.But Wang Xiaoyu said to one of the servants: "Aunt Zhu, is Er Niu's illness better?"

The servant woman was in her 40s, with a haggard face and frowning, as if she was full of thoughts.Hearing Wang Xiaoyu's question, her eyes turned red and she almost shed tears.She said in a trembling voice: "This child's illness is good for one day and two days for two days, and he never fully recovers. In the past few days, he has suffered from hysteria again, and his forehead is burning hot. He also said that he saw evil spirits coming to catch him. Convulsions. In the middle of the night yesterday, I suddenly started talking nonsense, saying that Uncle Deng, who had been dead for several years in the backyard, came back by boat to look for him."

When the maid said this, her voice trembled even more.She paused for a while, and then said to Wang Xiaoyu: "Eldest miss knows that two years ago, Uncle Deng went to the quarry with Steward Wang to transport stones. On the way back, the carriage overturned and he was hit by a stone. The head died on the spot. But Er Niu said that he saw Uncle Deng, and many dead people in the village, and came back in a boat. Amitabha! The eldest lady doesn’t know what happened when Er Niu said this. I was in a panic. My old lady told me secretly that this child has been weak since he was a child, and nine times out of ten he is possessed by evil spirits. He has been haunted by demons and ghosts for so many years, and even good people have been tortured to the point of exhaustion."

When the maid said this, two lines of hot tears finally flowed from her eyes.The faces of the two women beside her also showed sadness, but because of the presence of Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan, they didn't cry out with the servant woman surnamed Zhu.Wang Xiaoyu said: "Aunt Zhu, don't worry, take Er Niu to the city early tomorrow morning, and find Dr. Zhang to have a look. Er Niu fell ill a few times ago, didn't his medicine work?"

Aunt Zhu shook her head, wiped her tears with her hand, and said sadly, "Doctor Zhang is good at treating illnesses, but Er Niu is a bewitched man. No matter how good Dr. Zhang's medical skills are, he can cure diseases, but he can't cure them. Sigh."
