peasant young lady

Chapter 143 Follow Up and Be a Bad Guy Again
Cheng Xia trotted a few steps and followed closely behind the woman. The man seemed to be aware of it, or was born sensitive, and kept turning his head after walking for a while.

Cheng Xia knew that this man must have some ulterior secret, so he followed more carefully, and saw that the woman was only looking for a remote path, making two big circles, and finally turned into an alley.

Seeing that person entered the alley, Cheng Xia looked around suspiciously. For some reason, she always felt that this intersection was somewhat familiar, as if she had been there before.

Fearing that he would lose someone, Cheng Xia hurriedly lay down behind the wall at the intersection and looked into the alley. After only one glance into the alley, Cheng Xia knew where it was.Back then, she had followed Liu Wen here, and this was the mansion of her damned second uncle Liu Yuanwai, and she had been whipped in it.

The hostility in Cheng Xia's eyes suddenly emerged, she watched the woman knock on the door in a low voice, and when she saw someone opened the door, she put down her veil for the housekeeper to see, and then quickly entered the yard.

Before entering the door, she looked out cautiously, Cheng Xia quickly withdrew her gaze, and leaned against the wall next to her to calm her frenzied heartbeat.

As soon as she saw this house, she thought of her sad things. Damn it, Liu Yuanwai is dead, but the culprit Liu Wen is still alive and well, and she is always unhappy.

Cheng Xia swore secretly in her heart that she would not make Liu Wen feel better.

Not long after, there was the creaking sound of the door opening again in the alley, Cheng Xia woke up instantly, looked around, and saw the woman coming out of the door, carefully covering her face with the veil, and then from another Orientation left.

The door closed again, and the woman disappeared in the other direction of the alley, Cheng Xia hurriedly followed.

The road got more and more sideways, and Cheng Xia had some copper coins in his hand. When he passed by a hawker stall, he dropped more than a dozen cents and took a long square scarf. After being surprised for a moment, he happily collected the copper coins without saying anything.

When there were almost no one on the road, Cheng Xia quickly covered her face with the scarf, and before the people in front could react, she covered her mouth from behind her and dragged her aside for a rough comparison. In the barren grass where people are still tall.

The woman struggled unceasingly, and her feet kept kicking. Cheng Xia kicked her unceremoniously. The woman saw that Cheng Xia's action was hot, so she changed her struggle and gave in, "Who are you? I have no grievances with you, what are you going to do?"

Cheng Xia sneered, and when the woman heard this, her brows were tightly wrinkled together, she suddenly turned her head in disbelief, and raised her hand to uncover Cheng Xia's veil, Cheng Xia snorted coldly, and slammed her hand hard. Suppressed, "You still haven't learned how to be good. Last time, you tried to uncover my veil several times. Did I let you succeed?"

That's right, this woman is Zhao Rou, Cheng Xia recognized her alluring figure when she saw her at the grocery store, she was just curious, since she was afraid of being seen by others, why did she sneakily appear in front of her with a veil? In the city, and bought such a precious thing, Cheng Xia just wanted to see who she would contact.

In the end, it turned out to be someone from that house, Cheng Xia naturally would not miss this opportunity, this time without Mrs Zhang's interruption, she must ask the ins and outs of the matter clearly.

Zhao Rou's body trembled uncontrollably, and her voice was tinged with fear, "Who the hell are you and why are you following me? I've already told you that I have no money. Why don't you go find someone else?"

Cheng Xia asked her to take off the veil, and it was obvious that she was still wearing makeup, hehe, she still had money and time to dress herself up, Cheng Xia asked directly, "Who lives in the house you just went to? "

"Uh, it's Yuanwai Liu." Zhao Rou said tremblingly.

"Dare to lie to me!" Cheng Xia slapped her unceremoniously, and Zhao Rou's face instantly turned red and swollen, "Do you think I haven't stolen from Mr. Liu's house? Let me tell you. It's clear, the butler who opened the door for you just now is not the butler of the Liu residence at all."

Cheng Xia saw a look of surprise in Zhao Rou's eyes, and even laughed out loud, "Are you going to tell me that the housekeeper of Liu's house has changed? Let me tell you, is that person the housekeeper of Liu's house? I'll go in later." You will find out if you find out, you didn't lie to me, everything is easy to say, but if you deceive me even a little bit, I won't make it easy for you."

Seeing Zhao Rou pursing her lips and thinking, her hands clenched tightly on the ground, looking like she was ready to run away at any time, Cheng Xia smiled nonchalantly, and glanced around the overgrown weeds, and there happened to be a plant as thick as a cockscomb The plants with dried flowers are bright red in color and look very coquettish.

Cheng Xia unplugged it casually, handed it to Zhao Rou, and said lightly, "Do you know what this is? It has a very nice name, Shanglu, also known as Danglu, Zhangliu, Baichang, Mawei, Yehu, its roots, seedlings, stems, and leaves can all be steamed and eaten, let me tell you, they are delicious."

Cheng Xia saw Zhao Rou's confused and bewildered look, and immediately smiled, "Oh, look at me, how do you, a rich daughter of a county magistrate, know about this weed? Let me tell you, its flowers are white. It can be picked and made into cakes and eaten with wine."

Taking advantage of Cheng Xia's nonsense, Zhao Rou quickly stood up and wanted to run away, but Cheng Xia pulled her back effortlessly, poked Zhao Rou's face with Shanglu, and said in a ruthless tone, "What are you doing in such a hurry, listen to me. Don't you just think that I don't have a dagger in hand now, so I can't threaten you, hehe, but it can."

Cheng Xia shook Shanglu, and under Zhao Rou's terrified eyes, said slowly and lightly, "Do you think the red color looks good? Let me tell you, it's poison. As long as I crush it and stuff it into your mouth, you'll be fine." You will die immediately, do you want to try its efficacy?" Cheng Xia said in a condensed tone.

Generally speaking, this pokeweed can be eaten as a vegetable, but it is not red and yellow. As long as it is in these two colors, it is undoubtedly poisonous.

Zhao Rou kept shaking her head and backed away, afraid that the herb would really touch her, Cheng Xia smiled instantly when she saw her appearance, "It's you who insisted on finding a remote path, I see, there is no one in the desert, No one will come to rescue you even if you yell, your yard is not far ahead, it is very easy to go home, tell me who lives in that house."

Zhao Rou didn't dare to hesitate anymore, she was very scared, why was it so rare to come out once, to meet this ruthless woman, last time she knocked herself out, her shoulders couldn't move normally for two days, and her body was so sore , At that time, she knew that this woman was really a ruthless character, if she really wanted to kill, there would be no way out.

Zhao Rou said tremblingly, "It's me, my father lives there."

That dog officer?Cheng Xia frowned, "Isn't that the house outside Liu's courtyard? How could your father live in it?"

"Uh," Zhao Rou was reluctant to say, Cheng Xia glanced around again, stretched out her hand and pulled a plant that looked like Southern Star Miao, but with lots of spots, swaying in front of Zhao Rou, leisurely Said, "Do you know what this is called? Weakness. It is also called konjac and ghost head. You know that this thing is a poison after hearing the name. Let me tell you, this weakling is much more powerful than Phytophora, as long as you Eat it, and soon your skin will start to have fish scales, each piece will still glow, and I guarantee that you will be thrown into the fire and roasted to death like a monster."

"I said, I said," Zhao Rou didn't hesitate any longer, and quickly raised her hand to promise, "Liu Wen bought that house for my father, to honor my father."

Cheng Xia was taken aback, Liu Wen?He has money?When she met Cheng Shang a few days ago, she had to borrow money from herself, but did Liu Wen secretly buy the house?Where did the money come from?
"You bitch!" Cheng Xia pulled Zhao Rou's hair back unceremoniously, "How dare you lie to me, last time you said that Liu Wen has no money, I really believe you, you are lying to me, He already has the money to buy a house for your father, it's unreasonable."

Zhao Rou's head was pulled badly, she hurriedly begged for mercy, "Grandma, I really didn't lie to you, Liu Wen has no money, he borrowed 50 taels from the bank."

"50 taels?" Cheng Xia murmured in his heart, "50 taels can buy a house, you are an old lady."

"No, no," Zhao Rou hurriedly said, fearing that her hair would suffer, "The bank is only willing to lend 50 taels, and the remaining 100 taels are loan sharks."

Good guy!In order to buy this house, even such untouchable things as usury have been used, it is really at all costs.

"Why did he buy your father a house?" This is the point. What kind of deal did Liu Wen make with that dog official?In order to make Liu Wenkao Zhongqiu Wei become a Juren?No, the invigilation system in the Ming Dynasty was extremely strict, and there were special invigilators in the examination room who were in charge of supervision. How could a county magistrate, Zhao Dezhong, have the ability to bribe all the invigilators?

Zhao Rou obviously hesitated. Just as Cheng Xia was about to continue threatening, she saw a man walking unsteadily on the path a little far in front of the grass. Cheng Xia was taken aback. She shouted loudly, "Liu Wen, save me."

Cheng Xia cursed angrily, and seeing Liu Wen looked towards this direction for an instant, she kicked Zhao Rou and ran away quickly from the other direction without thinking about asking any more questions.

After running a long distance, Cheng Xia tore off the square scarf with lingering fear until he entered the central area where people came and went. Seeing that he was still holding the weak tree in his hand, he couldn't help but sighed and threw it aside.

How could Yanwei have the effect of making people's skin grow fish scales? She is talking nonsense, but Yanwei is indeed a poison.

Cheng Xia sighed, it was really bad luck, every time she got to the last step, she was destroyed by someone, she just wanted to know what kind of collusion Liu Wen had with that dog official, why is it so difficult!

Knowing that Dahua was still waiting for her at the grocery store, Cheng Xia hurried back, hurriedly, but when Dahua said that the shopkeeper hadn't come back, she felt relieved, knowing that she was not rude.

After waiting for another cup of tea, the shopkeeper came out, and smiled at Cheng Xia embarrassedly, "Girl, our boss is here to invite you."

"Can I bring my sister-in-law with me?" Cheng Xia asked.

"Of course!" The shopkeeper said politely.

The shopkeeper led the two of them to a private room on the second floor, but instead of following in, he only pointed to the inside and said, "Young lady, just push the door open and go in."

Cheng Xia smiled, saw the shopkeeper leave, and pushed open the door, but when she saw the person inside, Da Hua screamed out in fright, and ran out in a panic.
