Chapter 70 Returning to Yamen
Zhan Yue cleaned up the surroundings of the old man's grave. Shi Shi searched the house and lit candles and took them out. Only then did everyone realize that it was already so late before they knew it. Shi Shi reminded Ren Xin,
It's too late. If I don't go back, I'm afraid I'll make Nvying and Wang Weiyan worried.
Ren Xin looked at Xiao Zhan Yue who was still taking care of the yard, and she couldn't worry about leaving him here alone. She stepped forward and patted Zhan Yue gently, "It's a little late, come back with us.
"Zhan Yue nodded, looking at the grave in front of him with reluctance. Ren Xin could see what he was thinking. She could understand how sad he was, but she couldn't let him continue like this. She was just a child.
.
"Nothing, the surroundings are already very clean. Grandma will sleep well here. Look at how dirty you are now. Let's go back and get familiar with each other. Have a good rest and come back dressed up to see you tomorrow morning.
Grandma, are you okay?" After listening to Ren Xin's words, Zhan Yue kowtowed several times in front of ***'s grave.
Ren Xin helped Zhan Yue up and was about to leave, but Zhan Yue's brother ran back in a hurry, followed by several men. Looking at their clothes, they looked like the people in the gambling house before. When Zhan Yue's eldest brother saw him,
Ren Xin looked like she was going to lead Zhan Yue away, and immediately her eyes turned red. She stepped forward and grabbed Zhan Yue, pushing Ren Xin away.
"What are you doing? Who are you? Where are you taking our Zhan Yue?" Zhan Yue's eldest brother asked Ren Xin. Several men who came back with him looked at him coldly. One of them looked like he was taking the lead.
Er Er smiled disdainfully, "I said Zhan Qi, what nonsense are you talking about? If you don't hurry up and hand over Zhan Yue to us, we can go back to do business as soon as possible. It's so late at night, isn't this a delay?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Zhan Qi's face changed instantly, and he smiled in an attentive and flattering manner, "The third master is absolutely right, this is my brother Zhan Yue, do you think it's worth the price?"
"You don't have to look, the seedling that our wife likes is definitely not bad, hurry up and bring people here, we will leave after we bring people." The sharp eyes of the man whom Zhan Qi called Third Master noticed when he said that he wanted to bring people.
When they left, Ren Xin grabbed Zhan Yue's arm and stared at him warily. The third master didn't want to cause trouble. He saw that Ren Xin was dressed in ordinary clothes and looked at the face. He didn't think it was a threat, so he didn't care, so he handed it over to Ren Xin.
Zhan Qi took matters into his own hands, but looking at Ren Xin's stubborn little face made people want to take a second look.
Zhan Qi said yes twice and dragged Zhan Yue away, but failed. Only then did he realize that the woman he had just pushed away had grabbed Zhan Yue and confronted him. Ren Xin listened.
From their conversation, it became clear that Zhan Qi must have lost another bet, and this time he had no money to pay back the debt, so he planned to sell Zhan Yue.
"This is our family's business. If you are sensible, get out of here!" Zhan Qi pulled Zhan Yue harder and reached out to push Ren Xin. After all, Ren Xin had practiced, so why wouldn't he let such a skinny guy bully him?
? She ducked lightly, still holding Zhan Yue with her left hand, and grabbed the wrist that Zhan Qi hit with her right hand. She raised her leg and kicked Zhan Qi on the waist. How could Zhan Qi have expected that such a slender woman would be like this?
With such skill? He fell down all of a sudden and fell to the ground.
Ren Xin pulled Zhan Yue over to protect him, looked down at Zhan Qi, and wanted to hit him up. When the third master saw this posture, he had a vague feeling that he couldn't take this person away today, and he couldn't help but think carefully.
He looked up and down this seemingly non-threatening woman.
Shitou, who had been silently observing the form, walked up to Ren Xin, blocked the third master's probing gaze, and smiled slightly, "Brother, I'm really sorry. The two of us don't want to hinder the work of others, but,
We bought this child for fifty taels before, and he has been ours for a long time. If you are taking him by force at this time, I'm afraid..."
Talking about the stone, he glanced at Zhan Qi on the ground and shook his head, "If this changes hands again, we should be the ones selling it. I'm afraid Zhan Qi no longer has the qualifications."
"What nonsense are you talking about? When did Zhan Yue sell to you? Why didn't I know!" Zhan Qi got up from the ground and tried to grab someone. Ren Xin couldn't tolerate him. It was up to him.
Not pleasing to the eye, and now feeling even more angry, he stepped out from behind Shitou, casually grabbed a handful of grass that Zhan Yue had pulled out before and stuffed it into Zhan Qi's mouth.
"Oh, when did you sell it to us? Where do you think the fifty taels you gambled away came from?" Ren Xin followed Shitou's words and had to admire Shitou's quick thinking. As long as Zhan Yue has already
It has nothing to do with Zhan Qi, so these people can't take people away. Of course, the possibility of robbery cannot be ruled out.
Thinking of this, Ren Xin looked at San Ye and others with even more defensive eyes.
The brothers behind the Third Master were about to make a move, but the Third Master blocked them and signaled them not to act rashly. He looked at Shi Shi and Ren Xin who were in the way, and looked at Shi Shi's words and Ren Xin's behavior. The two of them spoke and acted in unison.
They also have a tacit understanding, and it seems that they are not easy opponents. Although Ren Xin's skills seem to be somewhat advanced, she is not a master after all. However, judging from her body skills, she seems to have the shadow of an old friend, and he is not suitable.
Attack her.
"May I ask if the girl is from Yicheng?" The third master saw a smile on Ren Xin's face. He thought he was charming and wanted to get close to the girl, but he didn't expect that smile to be seen in people's eyes.
She was so cold that she got goosebumps all over her body. She took a few steps back behind Shi Shi, not looking at him.
"So what if it is, so what if it isn't?" Shitou protected Ren Xin and Zhan Yue. The third master had a headache. He just wanted to get close to his old friend's apprentice. Why, he seemed to be regarded as a filthy uncle.
? But, that’s it, that’s it. Judging from Ren Xin’s reaction, they did come from Yicheng. That’s right. As an elder, he doesn’t care about them. It’s too late to make trouble now. It’s better to do it earlier.
Good to be separated.
However, looking at Zhan Qi, the Third Master felt a little helpless. There must be an explanation for this trip. "Zhan Qi, I will give you three days. In three days, you should pay back the money or hand it over to someone else. You can come to the gambling house and give an explanation to my wife."
"Brothers, let's go~" Since Ren Xin didn't give him a chance to get close, he didn't need to be so enthusiastic to help. After all, he was also a person who did things. The third master yawned and waved his hand, and took the person away.
Clean and tidy, without any nostalgia, this made the few monks two feet tall who stayed in the courtyard confused.
Ren Xin and Shitou looked at each other, thinking that there would be a fierce battle, but they didn't expect that the third master waved his hand and left without taking away a single cloud...
"Zhan Yue, let's go." Ren Xin glared at Zhan Qi coldly, and stared at Zhan Qi angrily until Zhan Yue was about to leave.
"Let's go." Shitou blocked Zhan Yue's sight and took Zhan Yue's other hand. In this way, Zhan Yue was held by Ren Xin and Shitou on the left and right in the middle. Before stepping out of the road
When he opened the door, Zhan Yue almost thought that everything that happened today was a dream, but the warmth conveyed by his palms made him feel real, as if they were a family.
The third master said that he would give Zhan Qi three days to decide whether to pay or hand over the money. Zhan Qi spat out the grass in his mouth and felt very panicked. He could never afford to offend those people in the gambling house.
If he owed them money, he would not be able to escape even to the ends of the earth. However, where could he get the money when the person had already been taken away?
Zhan Qi hurriedly entered the house and rummaged through everything in the house, but couldn't find even a penny. When he thought about his future, he was swallowed up by boundless fear and was carried away.
He ran to the yard, punched and kicked ***'s grave, "You're being partial when you hit us when we were young. You've always only hurt Zhan Yue. When we get old and die, you won't leave me a penny."
…”
Zhan Qi has a naughty temperament and does not learn well. Although Zhan Yue is young, he is more sensible and calmer than other children of the same age. He is like a little adult. He is good at taking care of others and is smart. He can learn everything quickly. From childhood to
Since childhood, grandma has always preferred Zhan Yue like this, but Zhan Qi has become more and more reluctant to learn well because of this. Grandma is old and can't control him anymore. Gradually, I don't know when, Zhan Qi became a part of the family.
This cancer has made this family a mess.
The soil on the grave was newly buried and was still very loose. Zhan Qi could peel it off with his hands, and soon his body was revealed...
Seeing this familiar face, he panicked and sat back on the ground. Suddenly, Zhan Qi had an idea.
Ren Xin and Shitou took care of Zhan Yue's small steps and pulled him slowly on the road. They didn't return to the inn for a long time.
The road was very quiet at night, and the footsteps of the three people could be heard quietly. When the three people passed by an alley, they suddenly heard a burst of hurried footsteps, coming in a hurry.
"stop!"
The person seemed to be coming towards them. Hearing this, Ren Xin and the other two people stopped together. They turned around to see what was going on. They saw two rich and plump police officers chasing after them, panting.
He stood in front of him, breathing heavily.
Zhan Yue looked at Ren Xin, at the stone, and then blinked at the two policemen who came over. He didn't understand what was going on.
"I wonder why the two policemen stopped us?" Shitou bowed lightly and asked.
The two detectives slapped their chests, panted heavily, and waved their hands, indicating that they would wait until they finished breathing. The three of them just stood there, waiting for the two detectives to finish breathing.
As time went by, the only sound that could be heard in the quiet street was the gasping sounds of the two policemen. After finally catching their breath, the two men pretended to straighten their clothes. Suddenly their faces turned cold and they raised their eyebrows.
Chapter completed!
