The kitchen knife stood brightly on the table, startling everyone.
Song Qing was dripping with cold sweat. He felt that he was only one step away from death. If he had reacted any slower, the kitchen knife might have split his head in half, leaving white and red blood all over the floor.
Thinking of that scene, Song Qing almost peed with fear. Yao Liu next to him was no better than him. He was so frightened that he hugged the table leg and howled as if the kitchen knife had been nailed to him.
Li Man'er couldn't help but feel happy when she saw this.
"Why, you smashed up someone's house like this and left right away? Your business was disrupted by you, and the stalls were smashed into a mess. You don't want to give me an explanation?"
Song Qing reached into his arms, took out a money bag, and threw it on the ground, "Miss, is that enough?"
Li Man'er gave Lu Yi a wink, and Lu Yi stepped forward and picked up the purse and took a look. There was a full thirty taels in it.
"Girl." Lu Yi showed her the money bag.
Li Maner signaled her to hand the purse to Song Sanniang, and said to Song Qing: "You and Song Sanniang were a family five hundred years ago. You have to be merciful! If things get serious, I will have to ask the eldest princess to tell you this."
When the time comes, I'm afraid that the gains will not be worth the losses, Manager Song."
Song Qing sneered, "What a merciful person, big lady, Song took note of it."
Is this threatening her?
Li Man'er didn't take it seriously and only said twelve words, "Repay debts with money and murder with life. It is only natural and right."
Song Qing didn't know what he was thinking of, and he felt guilty and didn't dare to look at her. He quickly got up and left quickly with the people. That Yao Liu cried for his father and mother and asked Song Qing not to abandon him. He was a tall man.
The thought of being struck by a kitchen knife frightened me to death.
"Everyone, let's leave, let's leave!"
Song Sanniang was so panicked that she had to persuade the neighbors who were watching the excitement to leave first. When everyone was almost gone, Song Sanniang knelt down in front of Li Man'er with a plop.
"Thank you for saving me, big girl."
"Get up quickly." Li Man'er really hated the fact that people in ancient times knelt down all the time. "To tell you the truth, I just can't stand the behavior of those people in the Princess's Mansion. If this matter had nothing to do with them, I might still
No matter."
Song Sanniang smiled bitterly, "No matter why the girl takes action, she is always kind to me. Besides, when the gangsters first came, you didn't know which family they belonged to, but you still chose to stay. Sanniang misses your kindness.
."
"Hurry up and help the person up." Li Man'er asked Zi Yan to go up and help the person up. "If you have anything to say, let's talk after you get up."
But Song Sanniang refused to get up despite saying anything, "Miss, Sanniang dares to ask the girl to save her, and beg the girl to uphold justice for Sanniang."
"Are you trying to get into trouble?"
Conflict?
Third Sister Song instinctively shook her head, "No, it's just that Sanniang really has nowhere to redress her grievances. Apart from the girl, Sanniang doesn't know who to turn to."
"I'm just a girl from a boudoir. If I have a life-threatening lawsuit, I should go to Dali Temple." Li Man'er said, "You've been in the capital for a while. Don't you know how to get to Dali Temple?"
Song Sanniang was stunned. She didn't seem to think that Li Man'er was not a bad person.
"Sanniang speaks softly because she is afraid that... the officials will protect her. Girl, if you can help Sanniang redress her grievances, Sanniang is willing to act like a cow or a horse to repay you."
"You are repaying kindness with hatred. I am helping you out of kindness. Could it be that I will be dependent on you from now on?"
Both Zi Yan and Lu Yi were confused. The girl was originally very sympathetic to this third lady, but why did she suddenly become mean in her words?
Li Man'er glanced at her lightly, "What resources do you have to ask me to redress your grievances on your behalf?"
"I..." Song Sanniang panicked, "I am willing to sell myself to the lady as a slave."
"I don't lack a cook." Li Man'er stood up and gave Song Sanniang a condescending look, "You can kneel down if you want. It has nothing to do with me. But I advise you, it's better to leave Beijing as soon as possible.
There are people in the world who can't complain, but you are not the only one."
Li Man'er left, and Lu Yi and Zi Yan could only follow their master closely, leaving only three years of sleeping alone in front of the stall, unwilling to get up for a long time.
"Girl, why aren't you willing to help Sanniang?" Luyi said, "I think she is so pitiful. Her family members died in mysterious circumstances."
Zi Yan glared at her and shook her head to signal her not to talk nonsense.
"She's not the only one who died inexplicably. If she wants to file a lawsuit, she can just go to Dali Temple. Is it possible that your girl is a lawyer?"
But the girl is obviously a warm-hearted person, why did her attitude suddenly change so obviously?
The two girls followed Li Man'er back to the house in confusion. As soon as they entered the house through the corner door, someone diligently reported to Li Man'er that the old lady of the Guo family was here again, and this time the trouble was even worse.
"The old woman is here again, saying that if you don't let the young master of the Guo family go, she will go to Dali Temple to sue you. Her words are so unpleasant."
Li Man'er was not angry at all, but instead joked: "You call her old lady, be careful she asks her grandmother for you and sells you to a black coal kiln."
Mrs. Jia chuckled, knowing that Li Man'er was just teasing her, "She doesn't have such face in front of the old lady." Everyone knew that the old lady of the Guo family was not shameful in front of the old lady. She said she was from the same house.
But the two of them are different from each other, and they fought openly and secretly when they were girls. How could they not have discord in their hearts.
"I know what I'm doing, you can go work as an errand." Li Man'er winked, and the green man went up and rewarded her with a lot of money, and said: "I followed the girl to the streets today, and I didn't buy anything interesting.
I will reward you with money and thank you for being loyal to the eldest girl."
Mrs. Jia quickly thanked her, "Thank you, Miss, for the reward, and also thank you, the girl in green."
Green Yi quickly chased after Li Maner.
Li Maner did not return to Qingpingxuan and went directly to Songhe Hall.
Sure enough, when I entered the courtyard, I heard the old lady of the Guo family crying endlessly, saying that her life was miserable, and that Li Man'er was arrogant and unreasonable, and that she wanted to go to Dali Temple to sue her, etc.
Ms. Cui's head hurt when she heard this, but she didn't say anything in reply and just let her run wild.
Li Man'er stood in the corridor and listened to a few words before she understood that Mrs. Cui saw that she could not control her, so she thought of using other people's hands to suppress her. This old lady Guo is undoubtedly the best candidate. The two families have some connections, Guo Yongzhang
And it is indeed in his own hands. If the conflict between them is not resolved, it may really lead to a talk in the streets.
If it gets more serious and a lawsuit is filed, will Li Maner's reputation be lost in the future?
Originally, Guo Yongzhang wanted to do something evil. If someone exaggerated it, the news would be even worse.
Li Man'er raised her feet and entered the flower hall.
"The big girl is here." The little girl opened the curtain for Li Man'er and knelt down to invite her in.
As soon as Li Man'er entered the room, he said: "Oh, I heard someone howling from a long way away. Those who didn't know it thought something had happened to the family and they came to report the funeral!"
