The history of struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 162 The Murderer

Li looked at the two pieces of paper on the table, hesitated for a while, and finally opened the inkpad, imprinted her handprint on the paper, and said the first sentence: "I'm going to move the machine away now."

"Okay." Han Qingquan agreed without blinking.

Li Shi finally couldn't help showing a smile on his face, stood up and said, "I'll find someone to carry it back." After speaking, he hurried out.

When Li Shi was completely out of sight, Han Qianluo couldn't help but said, "Brother, will this make people gossip?"

"We didn't force her to do this, she agreed to it." Han Qingquan said indifferently, "She sold her daughter for such a small amount of money." After speaking, she coughed a few more times.

"Brother, go and see the doctor, I see that you have such a bad cough." Han Qianluo said worriedly.

Han Qingquan waved his hands indifferently and said, "It's just that I accidentally caught a cold. It will be fine in two days. There is no need to go to the doctor."

Han Qianluo thought about it, and thought it made sense. Han Qingquan's health was always good, and he should be fine in two days, so he put this matter behind him and ignored it.

After a while, Mrs. Li came over with her son and moved the machine away. From then on, the two have nothing to do with each other, and have nothing to do with each other. Han Qianluo was very relieved about this.

Suddenly, Han Qianluo thought of Zhao Tong, so he asked casually: "Where is Zhao Tong, why didn't you see him, have you gone back?"

"I went back a long time ago." Han Qingquan walked out after finishing speaking, intending to go out.

Han Qianluo quickly grabbed him and asked curiously, "Brother, who are you talking to in the next yard at noon today?"

"Want to know?" Han Qingquan returned to the stool next to the table and sat down, looking at her with a smile and asked.

Han Qianluo also sat down beside him, nodding his head to express that he wanted to know.Only then did Han Qingquan satisfy her curiosity and said, "It's Ah Tong."

"But didn't you say it wasn't him before?" Han Qianluo was almost confused, what's going on here.

Han Qingquan smiled maliciously: "He was embarrassed, so he didn't admit it."

"I'm sorry, brother, what did you say in it, or is he actually the person I like in my heart?" Han Qianluo stared closely at his elder brother's expression after leaving this sentence, to see what he thought of him. What is the response to this sentence.

Unexpectedly, Han Qingquan was just stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, and said with a dumb smile: "What are you thinking about in your head, we are just the most ordinary friends."

Seeing her elder brother's calm reaction, Han Qianluo was a little puzzled. How could the reaction be so flat? It shouldn't be. She didn't understand, so she asked, "Brother, why aren't you surprised?"

"What are you surprised about?" Han Qingquan asked back, but this made Han Qianluo choke. He didn't know how to answer, so he had to change the subject and said, "Then what are you guys talking about secretly?"

"Actually, it's nothing. Ah Tong said he likes you."

Before Han Qingquan finished speaking, Han Qianluo hurriedly said: "Brother, I like Brother Linchu."

"I know, I also told him to let him give up, saying that you have someone you like." Han Qingquan quickly said reassuringly, and then said with some regret, "Actually, he secretly asked me about you several times before. I should have seen it earlier."

As soon as Han Qianluo heard it, she understood that it was because of this reason that Zhao Tong talked to her elder brother secretly a few times before, and she thought that the person his elder brother liked was Zhao Tong, which surprised her, but it turned out to be a false alarm. field.

"I'll go and return the borrowed table first." Han Qingquan started to work after finishing speaking.

Han Qianluo also helped sort out some borrowed things, and returned them one by one. After that, he had to tidy up the house, and packed up and stored all the things that were not used after the funeral.

When having dinner at night, Han Qingquan suddenly said: "Xiao Luo, I have already negotiated with Mrs. Zhang. From now on, we will sell all our candy to her, and the price will be one penny higher than the current price."

Han Qianluo was very surprised, he didn't even bother to eat, and he didn't have time to put down the bowl in his hand, so he hurriedly asked: "Brother, isn't the store selling well, why did you sell them all to Mr. Zhang? "

"Running into the city every day, it's easy to meet strong men or bad guys with knives. If you do, what should you do? You're a little girl, and you can't beat them." Han Qingquan was very excited. Said worriedly.

Han Qianluo didn't care at all: "Where are there so many bad guys? Besides, have I made enemies with anyone? How could I meet bad guys?" At this time, she had completely forgotten those who were kidnapped or even killed before. something happened.

However, Han Qingquan still remembered, so he reminded: "Have you forgotten the time you were kidnapped? Besides, some people have no money in their pockets, and it is easy to feel evil when looking at a little girl."

Han Qianluo wanted to refute, but before he could speak, the fourth brother Han Sanwei said: "That's right, there are so many bad people now, I heard them say that some people don't work all day, just want to steal other people's money, so Third sister, you should be more careful."

Hearing what Sanwei said, Han Qianluo calmed down and thought about it carefully. He felt that this was not a bad idea. He could vacate the shop to sell machines, so he said, "Okay, this is also very good. But, brother, you How could you think of selling things to the people in the palace, aren't you afraid that if they have evil intentions, they will forcibly snatch our recipe away?"

"Xiao Luo, where did you come up with these strange ideas? It's not a rascal. They are all upright officials. How could they do such a thing." Han Qingquan couldn't help explaining with a smile.

Han Qianluo suddenly had a feeling of watching too many TV dramas, and felt a little embarrassed, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "Brother, will we continue to buy our sugar in the future, and what about soy sauce?"

"I also want soy sauce, but the price they offer is a penny lower than what we sell now, but they haven't restricted us from continuing to sell soy sauce." Han Qingquan said, "But I think our family doesn't have many hands. Simply sell it to someone in the palace."

Han Qianluo didn't want to think about such complicated things, so he said obediently: "Brother, you can make up your mind, I don't care, in fact, I don't want to do these things now, I think it is more profitable and easier to make machines .”

"It's just that you are relaxed, and others are not easy." Han Qingquan said, without saying anything, just continued to eat.

The next morning, Han Qianluo came to the shop and told Tao Shi, "Sister Tao, don't sell the sugar in the shop from now on."

"I see." Dow said, but frowned.

Han Qianluo asked a little puzzled: "Sister Tao, what's wrong with you, is there any problem?"

"If you don't buy sugar, there will be too few things sold in the shop." Tao Shi only said this half sentence, but did not say the second half sentence.

But Han Qianluo knew what she didn't say, to the effect that the business would not be able to go on like this.Originally, she didn't plan to tell Dow right now, but seeing her worried look, she told her her plan: "The shop will be closed after a while, and I will sell machines later. Anyway, after two months, There will definitely be a lot of soy sauce sellers in the market.”

"Sister Han, how do you know that there will be a lot of soy sauce sellers in a few months?" Dow asked very puzzled.

"A few days ago, because the business was so good, I hired a lot of part-time workers. The method of making soy sauce is quite simple. Those people will definitely make soy sauce according to the method they saw." Han Qianluo explained.

Tao Shi nodded thoughtfully after listening and said, "So that's the case."

After explaining the matter, Han Qianluo left the shop and walked towards the government.She was going to ask how the investigation of Kan Chunhua was going, so she came to the gate of the official mansion, and the guard guard stopped her and asked, "Stop, what are you here for?"

Faced with this somewhat aggressive official, Han Qianluo was not angry, but he was not afraid of cowardice, but replied as usual: "I came to ask if the matter I reported to the official a few days ago has any results. "

The official who guarded the gate looked her up and down, and then said with some disdain: "Go in." Han Qianluo hurried in, found the official office last time, knocked on the door, and heard a voice coming from inside. With a word of "come in", she opened the door and walked in.

The man in the room was naturally the official from last time. He didn't seem to remember it when he saw Han Qianluo, but he remembered it soon, and said quickly: "So it's Miss Han, you came to ask your sister-in-law It's about the same thing, the insane murderer has been found, he has been arrested, and he will probably come back in a while, do you want to stay here and see who the murderer is?"

Han Qianluo also wanted to know who killed Li Chunhua and why, so he decided to stay here and wait for the yamen servant to bring him back.

"Just sit here and wait for a while, the man will come and report after he is caught," the man said.

"Thank you, sir." Han Qianluo thanked.

The man seemed to be reading a book, but also seemed to be working. Han Qianluo couldn't see clearly from a distance, so he began to look around the room, but was taken aback by the man who spoke suddenly.

"Miss Han, how did you meet Young Master Xie?" the adult asked suddenly.

Han Qianluo thought that he was just chatting casually, so he replied indifferently: "He helped me several times before, so I got to know him."

"I think Miss Han and Master Xie have a very good relationship, but it doesn't look like they have only helped a few times." The adult obviously didn't believe it.
