Picking up a beautiful man to be your husband

Chapter 36 The Strange Li Yue
Hao Xue went into the shop next door, which sold rouge and gouache.As soon as she entered, Xiao Er warmly came up to receive her. Due to the impact of the murder case in the jewelry store, there were fewer customers next door. If someone came to the store, they naturally wanted to keep customers.

Hao Xue asked Xiao Er about some new good products, and picked them up, and took the opportunity to inquire about Xiao Er during the selection process.

"Second brother, why isn't the door open next door? I remember that the jewelry store next door is pretty good, so I'm going to have a look!" Hao Xue asked curiously.

"Hey! Girl, don't you know that you haven't been in the city recently? Something bad happened next door, so it's closed, and the boss has sold the shop. You'd better go and have a look elsewhere! There's a nice one on the left corner. Why don't you wait for the girl to take a look..." Xiaoer lowered his voice and said softly to Hao Xue.

"Oh? Something bad? What's wrong?" Hao Xue knew that he didn't want to mention it, so she wanted him to mention it.

"Oh... it's better for the girl not to know..."

"Brother, it's okay, tell me, nah! Wrap this box of rouge for me!" Hao Xue generously pointed to a box of rouge with a delicate butterfly carved on the lid, and said to Xiao Er, it is a new top-grade product.

"Hey! Okay, thank you, girl..." Xiaoer shouted happily, looked around, lowered his voice and approached Hao Xue, and said, "Miss, the shop next door killed someone! No customer dared Going again, the boss had no choice but to close the shop, look! Because of this incident, the shops on the left and right have become depressed, alas!"

"Ah! What happened? What's the specific situation? Tell me." Hao Xue asked curiously.

"Hey! That unlucky man is called Li Yue. A good person disappeared in an instant. I don't know who I offended. I heard that he was poisoned and bled to death in front of the guests. The scene was scary. Of course he was right. As for the girl, I heard that some of the girls present couldn’t fall asleep when they went back, and some even had nightmares. Look, it’s so scary, who would dare to go to that store again? It has to be closed!” Xiao The second finished speaking and shook his head sympathetically.

"Then, do you know Li Yue? What does he look like? What kind of person is he? Was there anything unusual before he died?"

"Well... I have talked to him, but I am not very familiar with him. He is a bit quiet, but he looks very knowledgeable. After he came, the business of the jewelry store has improved a lot, and he is very polite. Yes, he is fair-skinned and handsome. He doesn’t look like us working. It’s unusual... He often goes out after work. Our kind of shop usually closes in the middle of the night. After closing, I have several times Saw him go out at night, and..."

Xiao Er lowered his voice even more: "He went to Hualiu Lane! Tell me, is his salary enough to go to that kind of place? I guess, there is something tricky in it, maybe his killing has something to do with it..."

"It makes sense..." Hao Xue nodded in agreement.

"Hey! How do you know that he has gone to a brothel? Maybe you, brother..." Hao Xue smiled at him.

"Hey! No, I didn't go... I want to go where I have the spare money! I just live behind a restaurant on that street. When I came home at night, I saw Li Yue going in through the back door. I knew something about him. Whereabouts. You see, the one who sneaked in through the back door must have some ulterior secrets..."

Hao Xue nodded again, it makes sense.

"Ahem~ Is there anything else unusual?" Hao Xue asked again.

"Hmm... not anymore." Xiao Er thought for a while and said.

"Okay, thank you, pay the bill! This is your reward." Hao Xue smiled and handed Xiao Er a tael of silver, and Xiao Er happily took it.

"Thank you girl..."

After Hao Xue went shopping again, she went back to the inn to wait for Mo Yin. In the afternoon, Mo Yin came back.

"Li Yue is a woman?!"

He was very surprised to hear Mo Yin report to Hao Xue.It's unusual for a woman to dress up as a man, let alone a woman dressed as a man to go to a brothel at night.

"Did she really have enemies who disguised herself to avoid enemies?" Hao Xue asked.

"Returning to the master, I found out that Li Yue was a beggar before she came to the store. She stayed in the group of beggars for almost a month. of."

Why is she inquiring so much information?Hao Xue held her chin and frowned in thought.

For a while, Hao Xue couldn't think of anything, Hao Xue told Moyin that Li Yue went to the brothel secretly at night, and asked him to find out what Li Yue was doing.Then, Hao Xue left the inn.

Hao Xue looked at the sky, and it would be dusk in one hour, which was still early.She was a little tired, so she walked to a tea house.

This teahouse is called 'Qingxin' Chazhai. It is not located in a prosperous part of the city, and it does not have the gorgeous decoration like Yuyuelou.The shop is on an ordinary street in the city, not as lively as the city center, and the environment is neither noisy nor deserted, it is a very suitable place for people to sit down, have a cup of tea and have a good rest.

Hao Xue felt that the shop owner was very good at picking places.

Hao Xue walked here once after coming out of Moyin's inn. When she saw it, she went in to have a rest and found that the snacks here were very delicious.Hao Xue thought, it would be great if he could pack some back and give Xiao Daozi a taste, he would definitely like it, but this store does not take out or pack, and the order can only be eaten in the store.

When Hao Xue entered the teahouse, Xiao Er warmly greeted her.

"Girl, you're here. There's a seat upstairs. Do you want to go up?" Xiao Er greeted Hao Xue respectfully with a smile. She had been here twice, and Xiao Er remembered her.

"Okay!" Hao Xue smiled at Xiao Er, seeing that he was respectful and courteous to the guests, it was very helpful in her heart, not as snobbish as Yuyuelou.

Hao Xue couldn't help but compare Yuyuelou, the more she thought about it, the more dissatisfied she was with Yuyuelou, and the more she hated that building.She thought that one day the building disappeared and won her heart.

After going up to the second floor and sitting on the seat by the wall, Xiaoer knew that Hao Xue was a low-key person.Xiaoer served Hao Xue a pot of boiling water, he knew that Hao Xue didn't like tea, then Hao Xue ordered the usual dim sum and ordered another kind.

Xiaoer nodded in agreement, and happily went downstairs to prepare.

While sitting and waiting for her delicious food to arrive, a cold snort suddenly entered Hao Xue's ears.

"Hmph! Here we go again. Why do we encounter such poor people everywhere? If we have nothing to do, we just go to the upper-class people, and we don't even look at our own status, thinking that changing clothes will make us reborn, heh!"

As soon as Hao Xue heard something, she knew it was her, and when she thought about the voice, she knew who it was.The young lady who made trouble for her in Yuyue Building.

Hao Xue raised her eyes and saw that there were two women sitting at the window seats two zhang away, with a maidservant standing behind each.Wei Minjie, who was facing her, was shooting her disdainful eyes at her.

Looking at their positions, and then at her own position, Hao Xue couldn't help smiling.This position was the same as the one she sat at when she first went to Yuyue Building that day, and the two women sat by the window at the same distance.

Hearing Wei Minjie's words, Zheng Rushui also slightly turned sideways and looked behind him, seeing Hao Xue, a smile of unknown meaning flashed in his eyes.

She turned her head to Wei Minjie, her delicate red lips moved, and softly persuaded: "Forget it! There is no missing piece of meat."

"Hmph! It's such a disappointment to see this kind of person everywhere!" Wei Minjie was still angry.

"Then what can I do, she is also a guest, so I can't let her make trouble again?" Zheng Rushui deliberately kept which pots from being opened and carried which pots.

"Hehe~"

Wei Minjie laughed happily after hearing this.Thinking of the scene where Hao Xue was driven away that day, I felt refreshed.She also had the nerve to ask the boss to come out, which was simply humiliating herself.I didn't expect that this girl still didn't learn well, she couldn't go to Yuyue Building, and then she set her sights on Qingxin Building, hum!I let you not learn well.

A malicious gleam clearly flashed in Wei Minjie's bright eyes.

Zheng Rushui lowered his eyelids to hide the triumphant smile in his eyes, but a smug smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

Zheng Rushui thought to himself, there is another good show to watch.

Seeing Zheng Rushui's expression, Lian'er behind Wei Minjie shook her head indistinctly, knowing that her young lady had fallen for Zheng Rushui again.She looked at the servant girl behind Zheng Rushui, only to see that she looked away when she looked at her, not looking at herself.

Lian Er sighed inwardly, alas!It's time to fight for the evil lady again.Lian'er glanced at Hao Xue with sympathy in her eyes, who told you that it's unlucky for you to meet her young lady again.

"Lian'er, go and invite the shopkeeper to come up!"

Wei Minjie's voice was not low, Hao Xue could hear it clearly, this time she called the shopkeeper directly!What a quick-tempered person.OK!Just let her see if the quality of the manager of this store is the same as the quality of the employees she saw, and see how they solve it.If the shopkeeper still handled it in the same way as Yuyuelou, then she wouldn't mind "inviting" the boss out again.

Hao Xue was calm in her heart, not nervous or afraid at all, if this 'pure heart' boss had the same virtues as Yu Yanqing, she wouldn't mind adding another blacklist to her account book in the future.

"Yes!"

Of course, Lian'er only had to obey the order, and when she got the order, she walked away with dignified steps.

Wei Minjie looked at Hao Xue, and saw that she was leisurely and innocent, and said disdainfully: "Pretending to be calm, I'll see her later!"

Wei Minjie picked up a piece of snack in a good mood, took a bite with her small mouth open, and nodded with satisfaction.

This dim sum is the best in Lingbei City, and her family can't make this kind of taste.It is heard that this dim sum has even entered the palace, and it is a good product that the imperial merchants sought out for the palace.

As soon as she thought that she was eating the same level of food as in the palace, Wei Minjie felt that she was noble and superior to others.When she suddenly thought that Hao Xue, a lowly commoner, would also enjoy this kind of food with her, Wei Minjie panicked, as if the dessert had been tainted.

Wei Minjie immediately put down her chopsticks, and the unhappiness on her face was obvious at a glance.Zheng Rushui on the opposite side saw her expression and the half-bitten snacks on the white plate, so he guessed what Wei Minjie was thinking.

Zheng Rushui raised the teacup to his mouth, raised his hand to drink the tea, and covered the smile that spilled over his mouth.

At this time, Xiao Er served Hao Xuelai some snacks, followed by the shopkeeper invited by Lian Er.
