143 How Much Money Do You Trick Me?

Tangchi had to admit that he had been dishonest again.

Gu Yue did flinch a little when she heard that Tang Chi said she was going to see Mr. Li, but she is a person who keeps her word.

Finally, she gritted her teeth and nodded in agreement.

"Sister Gu, you can do it!" Tangchi encouraged.

Gu Yue thought for a while and asked: "Tangchi, what kind of person is Mr. Li? What are the taboos when facing him?"

Tangchi thought about it and said: "Liu Yuanwai likes to put on a show. He might leave you alone for a long time when you come over. Moreover, his eyes are very sharp and make people feel pressured. You just need to stay calm and deal with him with a clear head.

Okay." As for the taboos, Tangchi really couldn't recall them.

Gu Yue nodded, thoughtfully.

"Sister Gu, go and get ready. I'll give you a day off this afternoon."

"Yeah." Gu Yue nodded and left, her expression as usual.

But Tangchi noticed that her hands were clasped tightly, looking very nervous.

I think she was like this when she met Mr. Li.

I just hope that Gu Yue can successfully pass the test of Yuan Li tomorrow.

Recently, Wen Lou seemed to be leaving because he was busy dealing with matters at hand and handover issues, and he never showed up.

About to leave, Tangchi is still reluctant to leave here.

She walked alone on the street, reminiscing about the past.

The guy selling rouge and gouache who used to be next to her stall is still selling his rouge and gouache there. His face is filled with a happy smile.

His wife should have given birth in a few months, but she couldn't wait any longer.

Tangchi just stood and looked at it from a distance, but did not walk over.

No matter who is missing, the people in the city will still live their lives as usual. Even if the magistrate is changed, it will not have much to do with them. And her departure will only give those rotten literati one less person to write poems and ridicule.

Object, most people would not notice that a small village girl who started her business by selling mushrooms left.

"Hello."

Just when Tangchi was feeling sentimental, a person suddenly appeared.

It's Zhong Cheng.

As for Zhong Cheng, she was very grateful that he took the gangsters to the village to apologize to her in public that day, but she would not forgive those gangsters.

"What are you doing?" So, Tang Chi looked at Zhong Cheng expressionlessly.

Fortunately, Zhong Cheng was alone now, otherwise Tang Chi might have caused a scene before leaving.

Zhong Cheng seemed to be very dissatisfied with Tangchi's attitude. He crossed his arms and said, "Why do you look like this? I owe you money?"

Tang Chi: "..." How much money did you deceive me for?

"Still angry? My brothers are ignorant, and I, as the eldest brother, am here to apologize for them." Zhong Cheng said.

Zhong Cheng also laughs often, but his smile is different from Wen Lou's. His smile is that kind of scoundrel smile, that kind of heartless smile.

"Now that things are like this, there's nothing to apologize for."

Zhong Cheng touched his chin and said with some confusion: "Is this what happened? What happened? They didn't do anything..."

Tang Chi: "..." It belongs to your second master!

Forget it, don't argue with the gangsters, the person in front of you is still the gangster leader, a super big gangster.

After teasing, Zhong Cheng said with a serious face: "My brothers are ignorant, please forgive them, they promise not to cause trouble for you."

Tang Chi was a little surprised that Zhong Cheng apologized so persistently.

Zhong Cheng is a good big brother, no wonder so many gangsters are willing to follow him.

But Tangchi is not that generous. This matter cannot be forgotten just like that.

"It doesn't matter whether I forgive you or not. I will leave in about ten days and leave here." Tang Chi said.

"Leave?" Zhong Cheng looked at Tangchi in surprise, but then he seemed to remember something and looked at her strangely.

"What's wrong?" Tangchi asked inexplicably.

Zhong Cheng asked: "Are you going to the capital?"

"Hey? How did you know?" Tangchi was surprised this time.

Zhong Cheng looked at Tangchi with some contempt in his eyes. "It turns out that she went to the capital to be Lord Wen's concubine."

It took Tangchi a while to realize that the "Master Wen" he was talking about was Wen Lou.

"What nonsense are you talking about, Second Master! You just went to be someone's concubine!"

Fortunately, there weren't many people on this street, and they didn't stand in the middle of the road. Otherwise, many people would have seen the manager of the Zhen Hui Lou branch standing on the street and yelling at the gangsters.

"I'm so brave now that I'm leaving..." Zhong Cheng said while looking at the soup pool.

Tangchi snorted coldly. "I'm here to do business, and you're the one who's here to be a concubine!"

Zhong Cheng smiled and said: "I'm going to get a wife, who will go to the capital!"

"Get a wife?"

Zhong Cheng nodded.

Tang Chi looked at Zhong Cheng strangely. This scoundrel actually wants to live happily with a wife?

"Which family's girl is so unlucky?" she asked casually.

Zhong Cheng's face turned dark.

Tangchi instantly forgot that the person in front of her was a gangster. She apologized and said with a smile, "Slip of the tongue."

"She's the daughter of Butcher Wang, but she hasn't even revealed her birth date yet! Butcher Wang doesn't like me." While chatting, Zhong Cheng unknowingly told Tangchi this.

Tangchi didn't know that he could actually talk so much with the gangster in front of him who had chased her, blackmailed her, and wanted to beat her.

Maybe it's because I'm leaving and my mood is different.

"Come on, do more serious things." Tang Chi advised.

"You don't have to say that?" Zhong Cheng said with a smile.

After chatting for a while, Tangchi left. When leaving, she did not forget to advise: "Watch your subordinates! Don't let them come out to cause trouble."

On the way back to the branch of Zhenhuilou, Tangchi found it funny when he thought about it. This gangster actually wanted to change his ways.

After returning to Zhenxilou Branch, Tangchi told Gu Yue a few words to not be too nervous, then said goodbye to everyone and returned to the village.

As for Li Fei, he still didn't tell her anything. Tang Chi was very disappointed.

After returning, she opened the door and found that the heater was not waiting for her in the yard as usual.

She felt puzzled and walked into the house only to find the heater lying motionless in the corner.

"The heater..." Tangchi walked over and picked up the heater, only to find that it seemed to be sick and listless.

"What's wrong with the heater!"

Seeing the lack of energy in the heater, Tangchi's heart began to twitch. She was anxious but did not dare to exert force, so she had to stroke it gently.

The heater was nestled in Tangchi's arms, motionless.

It seems that he is sick.

But it was starting to get dark, and it was too late to go into the city. Tangchi hugged the heater anxiously and didn't know what to do.

After much deliberation, Tangchi still only thought of Widow Zhang. So, she dug out a bamboo basket that she had not used for a long time, put a lot of cloth in it, then put the heater in, covered it with cloth, and then carried the bamboo basket on her back.
