Farmer's Head: Busy farming

Chapter 251 The Girl's Meaning

"Brother-in-law, you're really flattering me. I'm a girl from a family, what kind of courage do I have?" Xi'er smiled modestly, looked at Xu Qing and said, "If something happens at home, someone must take care of it."

Xu Qing just smiled, and didn't say anything more. Meng Changdong was driving the ox cart, feeling a little ashamed in his heart. He was an imposing seven-foot man, but he couldn't compare to his sister at the critical moment.

The three of them went to Lianzhen in a carriage, and Xi'er asked Meng Changdong to drive directly towards the Chu Mansion. Meng Changdong was a little surprised and asked, "Master Chu is not here, does he know us?"

"I know, don't worry." Xi'er nodded, reached out and tugged at the jade pendant in her pocket. This is the proof of Chu Zigui's identity, and I'm afraid there are all servants of the Chu family who don't know it.

When they arrived at the gate of the Chu Mansion, before Xi'er could take out the jade pendant, the guard came forward with a smile and said respectfully, "Why is Miss Xi'er here?"

Xi'er was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help being a little silly, "I, I have something to do with the housekeeper."

"Should you go in and wait, or will you call the butler out for you?" The man smiled and looked at Xi'er with a very respectful attitude.

"Brother guard, what's the matter with you?" Xi'er asked somewhat uncomfortably.

Standing behind Xi'er, Xu Qing and Meng Changdong couldn't help being a little silly. It's really surprising how the guards of the Chu Mansion treat Xi'er so respectfully.

"Miss Xi'er, the young master has already written to say, let us all obey Miss Xi'er's orders." The guard smiled, and then said flatteringly, he was a completely different person from the haughty appearance of Xi'er when he saw Xi'er for the first time.

Xi'er then nodded, "Oh, it's nothing, I just want to ask the housekeeper to borrow a few people to help me hold up the place."

When the man heard this, he immediately nodded in response and asked Xi'er to wait at the door before going in to report to the housekeeper. After hearing this, the housekeeper sent four people to follow Xi'er without hesitation.

Although Xi'er really didn't want to take advantage of Chu Zigui's favor, the current situation was special, and if something really happened, Xi'er would not dare to take risks with those desperadoes.

This Qianji Gambling House was opened so blatantly, it was soliciting customers in the busiest market in broad daylight, and the bright red banners were hung very high, which was particularly eye-catching.

Xi'er walked at the door with six people, but was stopped by someone, "You guys don't look like they are here to have fun?"

The man who stopped Xi'er had a hulking back and a fierce look on his face.

Xi'er smiled slightly, not annoyed, and then said, "Brother, we really didn't come to have fun. I heard that Meng Jiang owed you money from the gambling house, and I came to pay off the debt."

The man was taken aback, and it was really rare for him to come to the door to repay the debt. He turned his head and told the younger brother behind him, "Go and ask Meng Jiang what's going on."

"Let you be in charge, we are not troublemakers, let's talk about it." Although Xi'er is thin and small, she has a strong aura, and her voice is clear and loud at the moment.

Seeing Xi'er's non-stage-frightened appearance, the strong man really thought that she had some serious background, so he immediately smiled and said, "That's natural, just wait a bit."

Xi'er nodded in agreement, her expression was calm, she was not in a hurry, sure enough, within a quarter of an hour, a middle-aged man in long robes and clothes came out of the room, looking weak, he didn't seem like someone in this profession.

"Are you here to help Meng Jiang pay off his debts?" The moment the man opened his mouth, Xi'er seemed to want to take back the words "weak and weak". He had a drake voice, which was in sharp contrast to his appearance.

The expressions of Meng Changdong and Xu Qing were also very ugly for a moment. Could this be considered a man?

"You sent people to Meng's house in Baimiao Village yesterday?" Xi'er held back even though she felt disgusted.

The man nodded, looked at Xi'er, and asked indifferently, "Going or going, I ran for nothing, but I didn't find anyone."

"That's not Meng Jiang's house, why are you throwing things around?" Xi'er was a little short, but she couldn't hide the anger and contempt in her eyes.

The man laughed a few times before saying, "What is smashing and throwing? How come I don't know?"

"It seems that I have denied my account. The Meng family in Baimiao Village has nothing to do with Meng Jiang. If you go to cause trouble again, it will be a toast instead of fine wine." Xi'er sneered twice, crossing her arms around her chest.

When the man heard Xi'er's smile, he couldn't help laughing, as if he heard some big joke, "Heh, no one in this town dares to give me a fine wine."

"Yes, there is no one in Lian Town, but there are some in Bianjing City. I know that your gambling house was opened by the nephew of the magistrate of the county, but look behind me, there are guards from the Chu family. I don’t know if the county magistrate will give it to you or not?” Xi’er finished speaking in one breath, her heart beating non-stop, and her voice involuntarily raised her voice a little, trying to intimidate others.

The man was stunned, "Are you from the Chu family?"

"Is it right? You can see for yourself." Seeing the man's expression changed, Xi'er felt relieved, luckily she made the right bet, the magistrate still gave the thin noodles.

The guards of the Chu Mansion are superior to others when they go out, and they also come to this kind of venue on weekdays. How could that person not be familiar with him? Seeing a few guards winking at him, he immediately understood, "Oh, it turns out that they are from the Chu Mansion. That's really true!" The flood has rushed to the Dragon King Temple, so let’s talk about it earlier!”

"It's too late to say it now. Meng Jiang owes you money. It's only natural to ask for debts, but Meng Hai's house in Baimiao Village is not the place for you to collect debts." Xi'er said this, thinking of the scene she saw when she went home last night. , A burst of anger rushed straight up.

"The Meng Hai family's poor jingle can actually have a relationship with the Chu family." The strong man behind the long-robed man couldn't help but whispered something at this moment.

Xi'er heard it, but felt nothing. After all, the Meng family was really poor.

The man in the long robe turned his head and gave him a hard look, and then said, "I heard you clearly, the Meng family in Baimiao Village can't move, otherwise it's going to make things difficult for the Chu Mansion, and if it makes trouble for the Chu Mansion, it's going to be a problem with Lao Tzu." make life difficult for."

"Yes, yes, the little one knows." The strong man hurriedly responded when he heard this, and couldn't help asking, "The boss, what if Meng Jiang goes to their house? To arrest or not to arrest?"

"What do you mean girl?" The robed man didn't answer, but looked at Xi'er and asked with a smile.

Xi'er pondered for a moment, but was a little hesitant in her heart. After all, she was her father's younger brother. Even if she didn't want this relative, her father couldn't. Although he said that yesterday, the blood relationship cannot be parted.
