incense as a medium

Chapter 56 Irrelevant
Liu Bailu looked at the slender figure cleaning the yard outside the window, and said, "Miss Zhu has been here for a while, I don't know how big brother will arrange it?"

As Xiang Bo said, Miss Zhu was rescued from the cliff by Liu Zixuan on his way home in a hurry.The mountain road is difficult, and many people who are not familiar with the mountain road can easily fall off the cliff next to it. Ms. Zhu's family just didn't know the road, so they accidentally fell down when turning a corner.

Ms. Zhu was lucky, she was caught by a tree branch, she called for help when she heard someone passing by, and she was rescued by Liu Zixuan.

When Miss Zhu was mentioned, Liu Zixuan had a terrible headache: "Miss Zhu said that there were only three of them in their family, and her parents fell off the cliff and disappeared. She was homeless and could only follow me."

Liu Bailu rubbed her forehead. A few days ago, Miss Zhu went out to tell her parents that her parents' bones had been buried in a rich manner, and then she came back spontaneously. The Liu family really doesn't have enough food left to support one more person.

"Why don't you give it to Missy as a dowry?" Bai Shi, who was busy flying needles at the side, suddenly said, "Our family doesn't have any extra money to support another person, but..." Bai's eyes slipped on Liu Zixuan Walking around, he said: "If the young master intends to take Miss Zhu into the house, it's a different matter."

Liu Zixuan blushed and became embarrassed.

Liu Su said thoughtfully: "You're right, the Liu family is sparsely populated now, and Qin's body is not suitable for childbearing. Zixuan really should take a concubine. But now our family really doesn't have that many concubines." Money to support a person. This matter has to be slow."

Bai Shi looked happy, pinned the needle on the cloth, looked at Liu Su Shi and said, "If the Eldest Young Master doesn't want it, how about giving it to the Second Young Master?"

Liu Su hesitated and said: "Zi Feng is a good boy, he should be a good daughter."

"Hey," Bai waved her hand indifferently and said, "Isn't Ms. Zhu also the daughter of a good family? With the current situation in our family, who else is we still thinking about marrying? Some marriages are fine. What's more This Miss Zhu is winky, tough, and able to work. Most importantly, she has a big butt."

amount……

Liu Bailu glanced at Liu Zixuan who looked embarrassed, opened his mouth to save the siege, and said, "Auntie, Miss Zhu was rescued by the eldest brother, and she is not sold to our family. If someone wants to marry in, I have to ask her opinion, right?"

"That's true." Bai put the embroidery stretcher in her hand into the sewing basket, got up and walked out in a hurry.

Seeing Bai Shi outside the window avoiding Miss Zhu's questioning, Liu Bailu couldn't help laughing: "Auntie is really interesting."

Liu Su looked out of the window, smiled, then turned to look at Liu Bailu and frowned, "Have you been out again these days?"

Liu Bailu nodded with a smile, "It's just doing small things."

Her own daughter knew it herself, Liu Su said coldly: "Copy all the four female scripts for me! Don't go out if you can't finish copying!"

"Yes." The content of the Fourth Nvshu is not too much, but it will take some time to finish copying all of them, which obviously keeps her at home.But Liu Bailu didn't care, she got up and respectfully answered, no one noticed the flash of brilliance in her eyes.

But in just half a day, the news spread that Ying Mo, the most precious daughter of the businessman Ying, had been kidnapped. At first, people thought it was just an ordinary kidnapping, and the kidnappers just asked for a ransom.

However, a day later, there was no news from the kidnappers, and someone with a heart analyzed some things based on the previous rumors.

First, why did the kidnappers kidnap people in the city in broad daylight?You must know that this Miss Ying is not a law-abiding master. Cheng Rijie travels here and there, leaving the city almost every few days. Isn't it cheaper to kidnap outside the city than inside the city?It can be seen that those people can't wait.

Second, the ransom was not asked for immediately after the kidnapping, which means that the ransom has not been negotiated and determined. This does not seem like a purposeful kidnapping, or that the other party is not interested in the ransom.

Third, why has no one kidnapped Ying Mo before?Just in time for this juncture?

These points were not only thought of by others, but also by Ying Da Businessman, so he began to search in the mall, and there were enmity on weekdays, those who came directly to the door to demand someone, and those who did something to them behind their backs, so they asked side-by-side questions Or investigate undercover.

Such actions cannot stop the investigation of those who are interested. The actions of Yingda businessman can be said to have caused a thousand waves with one stone. Members of the chamber of commerce began to question whether Yingda businessman had received kickbacks for his actions in the past few months.Some people even suspected that the several failed large-scale transactions with the capital and the several times that the goods sent to the capital were robbed were all related to Ying Da merchants.

When there is doubt, someone will investigate, and some things will be picked up after touching a line, and then they will find something that people have heard.

"Miss Liu is talented." Shopkeeper Feng offered a cup of tea, and said, "I'll toast you with tea instead of wine."

Liu Bailu took a sip of tea and was detained at home by her mother for more than half a month. Today, she made an excuse to buy some things to go out. She pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "If Master Feng didn't help the situation, this matter wouldn't be so serious. Soon to succeed."

Shopkeeper Feng shook his head, and said: "Ms. Liu is still the one who is better than her. A few words caused such a big shock."

Liu Bailu smiled and said nothing, she asked Shopkeeper Feng to spread those rumors, she didn't go into details, Ying Da merchant has been in business for so many years, and he has never done anything illegal or taboo.Now that businessman Ying Da has become the president of the Chamber of Commerce, it seems to be a good thing, but in fact, there are many people who want to pull him down, but they only need an introduction...

"Then Miss Ying's family?" Shopkeeper Feng thought of something and asked tentatively.

Liu Bailu looked at Shopkeeper Feng in confusion, and said, "What does the Ying family have to do with me?"

Shopkeeper Feng was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed: "Yes, yes, it has nothing to do with Miss Liu, and it has nothing to do with me."

Liu Bailu nodded with a smile, dealing with smart people is always a pleasure.

Shopkeeper Feng took out a piece of paper from his sleeve pocket, pushed it forward lightly, and said, "This is a little care from my humble self, I hope Miss Liu will accept it with a smile."

Liu Bailu raised his eyelids and was surprised: "This is..."

Shopkeeper Feng said with a smile: "This is my tea shop in Yongkangguan. It has been in operation for many years. Although the place is small and the profit is meager, it is my kindness."

Liu Bailu hesitated for a moment, then accepted it. Shopkeeper Feng must have benefited a lot from this business war against big businessmen, otherwise he wouldn't have given such a big deal for a tea shop.It seems that the poorly managed Fengji Pawnshop is not as simple as it appears on the surface.

And as for why she chose Shopkeeper Shangfeng instead of others, it was probably because she saw Qi Peiyun coming out of the pawn shop that day, so she felt that Shopkeeper Feng was more reliable.

As soon as Liu Bailu got home, she went to the West Wing.

Qin shi leaned on the bedside to tease the daughter in her arms, and turned her head away when Liu Bailu came in.

Liu Bailu didn't care, and passed the paper in his hand directly.

Qin glanced sideways, and immediately sat up straight, grabbed the piece of paper, and looked at Liu Bailu coldly: "What do you mean?"

Liu Bailu lowered his eyelids, and said indifferently: "It's not interesting, this shop was originally left by my mother to my eldest brother, and I will return it to you now."

Qin Shi smiled coldly, stuffed the land deed under the pillow, and said, "Could it be that you are afraid because my mother is coming soon?"

Liu Junge was convicted, and those members of the Liu family quickly left the Liu family, and they also cut off contact with each other in the past few years.

But the Qin family is different. The daughter is the lifeblood of the mother. Mrs. Qin has no reservations about the Qin family's support. If the Liu family is not the family of criminals and cannot be too conspicuous, the Qin family will definitely spare no effort in Xiong Tang. The county bought a big house for her daughter and sent many servants.

Liu Jiacheng is like this now, if he wants to return to his previous appearance, he might have to rely on the Qin family, but it depends on Liu Junge's will.

Liu Bailu smiled lightly, and said, "Sister-in-law is thinking too much. It's just that I won't ask for things that shouldn't belong to me."

Liu Bailu got up and left after speaking.

Qin looked at Liu Bailu's back and curled her lips, lowered her head and continued to tease her precious daughter in her arms.

Miss Zhu did not agree to Bai's proposal to marry Liu Zifeng, but the Liu family can't support idlers now, so Miss Zhu directly paid the rent of five taels of silver to live in the Liu family for a year.

Because Miss Zhu moved here, she had a lot of silver in her hands. After finding her parents' bodies, she also found the treasures of the family, so she sold all the valuables and exchanged them for silver and kept them close to her body.

A woman with so much money will not be reassuring wherever she goes, and Liu Zixuan has saved her life. It is understandable for her to stay and help the Liu family to do something. Liu Su also feels that if Miss Zhu is driven away If you go out, if something happens to you, wouldn't it be harming someone?So I agreed to Miss Zhu to stay.

When the in-laws were coming, the Liu family couldn't be rude, so they cleaned up Liu Zifeng's residence and gave it to Miss Zhu to stay temporarily.

Liu Bailu turned a blind eye to this and concentrated on embroidering her own dowry.Now the eight quilts and the six bed covers are only half embroidered, and the remaining half needs to be embroidered within half a month, and then the neighbors will come to help sew the quilts.

As for the wedding dress, it's too late to rush to make it, so I can only buy it from a tailor shop in a while. Liu Bailu feels a little sorry for this, but there is nothing he can do.

The days passed by like this, during which Qin's mother, Mrs. Qin, came over, and she, who was usually talkative, became picky about Liu's family this time. One night, the next day, mother-in-law took Qin Shi out and rented another house to live in.

During this period, Mrs. Qin was afraid that Ms. Zhu would have some other ideas, but Ms. Zhu was very honest. Except for asking Liu Bailu for something and helping to embroider the dowry, she never left the house, which was quite reassuring. .

At the end of September, Mrs. Qin couldn't wait to take Qin and her grandchildren back to the capital to recuperate.

At the beginning of October, Qi Peiyun hurried to Xiongtang County to meet Liu Bailu, and left a brocade box for her to open on the day she got married before leaving.
