Flowers are expensive

Chapter 207 The Death of Ma Liu 1
"Yutao, are you still angry?" Man Xiang asked pitifully.

Yutao snorted, turned her face away and said, "Why am I mad at you? I don't have that much time! Get out of the way, or I'll shout if you don't!"

"Yutao..." Yutao opened her mouth and wanted to shout, but Man Xiang hurriedly put her arms around her waist and covered her mouth with one hand, and said in a low voice, "Don't shout! If my mother hears it, it will be troublesome!"

"Hmm..." Yutao dropped the lantern in her hand, and beat Manxiang vigorously with her two little hands.

"Stop making trouble, Yutao! I escaped through the window!" Man Xiang simply grabbed Yutao and hurriedly hid behind the big tree.

Yutao pushed and shoved, and said angrily: "What are you doing running away? You just stay in your room and wait to marry a wife! I'll give you a big gift later!" Man Xiang stepped forward Holding Yutao in his arms, he coaxed: "I will only marry you as a wife! Yutao, stop making trouble for now, can we talk seriously for a while?"

Yutao rolled her eyes, then slapped him on the shoulder twice and said, "Who is talking to you seriously? Let me go quickly, or I'll really yell!"

"Call!" Man Xiang didn't let go no matter how much Yutao beat him, "You just open your throat and call the whole village! Seeing us like this, if your mother doesn't marry you, you can't marry me, my mother won't!" Let me marry you!"

"You..." Yutao pouted angrily and said, "You are not such a rascal!"

"Tao'er, I found it so hard to get out of the house, didn't I just want to see you? I heard from my sister-in-law that you are going to the city?" Yutao nodded solemnly: "Yes! I am going to the city, Or go with Young Master Zeng! What can you do?"

"Stop talking nonsense! Sister-in-law has told me that you are going to help sister-in-law open a shop!"

Yutao turned her face away and said nothing, the corners of her mouth curled up enough to hold twelve oil jars.Man Xiang stared into her eyes distressedly and said, "Tao'er, can you stop being angry? I didn't say I don't want you, I won't marry you!"

"I don't want you, is this the head office?" Yutao said angrily.

"Peach..."

"Don't call me shameless, I don't want to talk to you anymore! Sister Lihua said, go to the city later, tell me a shopkeeper in the city, no worse than you! You are not the only man in this world, do you have to wait for you? ?”

"But you are mine..."

"Stop talking!" Yutao swept his face, opening a pair of angry eyes.

"Okay! Anyway, you're going to the city to marry the shopkeeper, so just kill me now!"

"You...you are really a rascal, Xie Manxiang! Then what do you want? What do you want to do if you don't let me go home this late at night?" Yutao stomped her feet and asked.

Man Xiang blocked Yutao by the tree, stared at her eyes by the moonlight, and asked seriously: "Tao'er, do you really want to go to the city to marry the shopkeeper? Don't talk to me out of anger, okay? I I'm so anxious to be locked up in the house these days! When I heard you say you're going to the city today, I almost lost my mind. You're going to the city, what should I do?"

Yutao puffed up her cheeks, blinked her long eyelashes and said, "What can I do? Is it possible that I have been delaying in the village? The young master of the Zeng family is standing across from my house like something, so I can't even say that I am close." You are even more hateful! It's already... Forget it, I know you are afraid of your mother, I won't make it difficult for you, I won't force you, anyway, I will find my own way, at worst, I won't marry in this life!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? You have to marry me! You can go to the city, lest the young master of the Zeng family keep staring at you!"

"Don't worry about me..."

"You are my daughter-in-law, can I not worry about you? Taoer, I have thought about it. You are not in the village anymore, so I might as well go to the city!"

Yutao's eyes lit up, and she asked, "Really?"

"Really!" Man Xiang nodded and said, "You are going to the city, what am I doing here? I don't want my daughter-in-law to marry some big shopkeeper. I can still be a big shopkeeper in the future! "

"can you?"

"Why not?" Man Xiang said solemnly, "I swear, I will definitely be a shopkeeper and marry you in a grand manner! Wait until then, who will say that I can't bear your love life!" Yu There was a trace of sweetness in Tao's heart, her face softened a lot, and she asked again: "Then will your mother agree? She must have heard that I am going to the city, so she will definitely not agree to let you go."

"I can't help but she refuses to agree! I've already thought about it. I can't let her know about it. I will secretly leave a letter and tell her. Then I will drive out of the mountain first and wait for you at the Fugui Inn. How about it?"

"Is this okay? Will you come back to see your mother later?"

"When I become the shopkeeper, my mother won't blame me! If I want to stay in the mountains, I won't be able to marry you, and I won't be able to be the shopkeeper. How boring!"

"Then do you want to marry me or become the shopkeeper?"

"Of course I want to marry you! You are mine and cannot marry anyone else."

"I'm not ashamed...then you really plan to go out of the mountain first?"

"What about you? Will you marry me?" Man Xiang asked seriously.

Yutao kicked him and said, "Apart from you, can I marry someone else?" He was overjoyed, and excitedly stepped forward to hug Yutao again.But as soon as he touched it, he immediately let go.Yutao asked him, "What's wrong?"

"You don't let me touch you, I'm afraid I'll miss you even more..." Man Xiang held Yutao's hand and said, "I'll leave tomorrow morning and wait for you at the Fugui Inn. You must Come!"

"Yeah!" Yutao grinned.

"Then go back quickly! I'll go home and pack my things, and leave tomorrow morning!"

"Alright, see you at Fugui Inn!"

"I'll go back first! You should go back quickly, lest your mother find out!"

When she ran home in one breath, her face was still red and her heart was beating wildly.Gong Shi saw her when she came out of the kitchen, and quickly asked: "Yutao, what's the matter? Did a mad dog chase you? Why are you running so fast?"

Yutao covered her mouth and smiled, nodded and said, "That's right!"

"Where's your brother? Why are you the only one coming back?"

"Brother Haitang called him on the way." Gong looked out of the courtyard strangely, and asked, "What did Haitang ask him to do in the middle of the night?" "I don't know! Sister-in-law, did you cook?" ?I'm hungry."

"It's ready for you!" Gong Shi and Yutao went to the kitchen, and gave Yutao a bowl of rice dumplings.While watching her eating glutinous rice balls, Mrs. Gong looked outside worriedly, and muttered, "Why haven't you come back? What are you going to do? Could it be a drink? I'll be out of the mountains the day after tomorrow. I'll have a lot of work tomorrow. What kind of wine did the two of you drink?"

Yutao glanced at Mrs. Gong and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, why are you so worried about brother? He's not a child anymore, can he run away?"

"When you have a man in the future, you will know what it's like to wait at home. As long as you don't see him come back, you won't let go. By the way, Yutao, haven't you seen Manxiang these two days?"

"Man Xiang..." Yutao almost choked, took a sip of the soup and said, "No! Where can I meet him?" Gong said with a slightly regretful tone: "You and Man Xiang It's quite a good match, but Mrs. Xie dislikes the birthmark on your body, otherwise it would have been a long time ago. Don't be too sad, when you get to the city, you will definitely meet a good one..."

With a sound of "噗嗤", Yutao spit out the glutinous rice balls in her mouth with laughter.She didn't dare to tell Mrs. Gong, so she hurriedly bent over and coughed: "Sister-in-law, don't talk about it, I can't eat it anymore when I talk about him."

"Okay, let's not talk, you eat first, I'll go to the door to see if your brother is back."

After finishing speaking, Gong got up and went to the outside of the courtyard to look left and right, wondering in her heart, what did these two people do?Even if you go to drink, you should tell the family!

While Mrs. Gong was waiting anxiously, two spies swished and landed outside the window of Ewha.Que Ling woke up suddenly, quickly rolled over to the ground, grabbed a piece of clothing, put it on, and asked softly, "What's the matter?"

"Master Que Ling, I have something urgent to report!"

At this time, Lihua also woke up, turned over and asked, "What happened?"

Que Ling said: "It seems to be, Auntie, you fall asleep first, I'll go out and have a look."

"You don't need to go out," Lihua put on her clothes and said with a yawn, "let them come in. I also want to hear what happened in the village."

Sparrow Spirit let the two spies in.One of them knelt down and said, "Mrs. Que Ling, something big happened in the village just now."

"What's the big deal?" Lihua yawned again and asked.

"Ma Liu on Wang's Grange is dead!" Lihua froze for a moment, stopped in the middle of her yawn, her mouth grew big, as if she couldn't believe what she just said.Que Ling was also stunned for a moment, and asked, "Who did you say died? Ma Liu? The Ma Liu on the farm?"

"Yes, Master Sparrow Spirit!"

"Have you seen it with your own eyes?"

"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes!" Lihua stood up from the stool and asked, "How did Ma Liu die? Didn't he be beaten to death by Haitang before? He's not that weak. !"

Que Ling asked the spy with a serious expression, "How did he die?"

The spy said: "It was killed by someone." Lihua was very surprised, covered her mouth and asked: "Who killed it? Could it be that Haitang really killed him? It was just vomiting blood." The spy said: "It's not Cao Haitang." "Who is that?"

"Returning to Madam, the spies guarding the mountain pass reported that two foreigners entered the mountain this morning. And it was these two foreigners who killed Ma Liu." "Outsiders?" Que Ling asked with a slight frown. "Do you know who it is?"

"It's two girls. I don't know who they are yet, but spies have been following them."

"Find out their details as soon as possible." Que Ling ordered.

"Yes!" "Wait!" Lihua interrupted, "Why did they kill Ma Liu? Is Ma Liu really dead?"

"The one who shot was a girl of twelve or thirteen years old. Although she was young, she shot very hard. It almost killed Ma Liu with a dart."

"Little girl?" Lihua asked in surprise, "Is it a little girl in green clothes? She wears a necklace in the shape of a green bud around her neck?"

"Yes, madam! Does madam know her?"

"Aunt knows her?" Que Ling turned to look at her and asked.

Li Hua nodded and said, "I've met once! I heard her brother call her once, and she seems to be called Qing Ya'er."

"The surname is Qing? Are they from Qingyue Hall? What are they doing here?" Que Ling ordered to spy, "Since they are from Qingyue Hall, then don't let them go easily! Before they leave, they have been closely guarded Watch and find out what they are here for. I don’t believe that people from Qingyuetang came all the way here just to kill an unknown Ma Liu!”

"My subordinate understands!"

After the spy left, Lihua asked Que Ling: "What is Qingyue Hall? What organization?"

"My aunt didn't walk around outside, so I don't know what Qingyuetang is. It's a hidden killer gang in Jianghu."
