Chapter 17: Li Rong, whose sharp tongue outstrips his brain
"Sister, are you here in the sleeper too?"
Luo Xinxin's surprised cry interrupted the honest woman's thoughts. Her heart skipped a beat and she subconsciously wanted to turn around and leave.
I really don't want to talk to this stupid ugly guy, it's just a waste of her time.
"I was in a hurry to get on the train and ended up in the wrong car. I was almost arrested by the People's Liberation Army. I was so scared."
The honest woman patted her chest with a frightened look on her face.
"You took the soft sleeper, right? I also took the wrong bus at noon and was kicked out by two PLA soldiers. They were so fierce. Humph, when I marry a high-ranking official, I'll take the soft sleeper whenever I go out. What's so great about that!"
Luo Xinxin made a bold statement.
Seeing her confident look, the honest woman almost laughed out loud. With such a toad face, she still dreamed of marrying a high-ranking official. She really didn't know how long her face was, and a ghost didn't know how ugly her face was. She had no self-awareness at all.
"Girl, which room do you live in?"
The honest woman suddenly thought that this hard sleeper car was next to the soft sleeper car, and the ugly guy could make use of it.
"That room, come sit in my room for a while, big sister!"
Luo Xinxin casually pointed to a room that was several rooms away from hers, and wanted to drag the honest woman to sit there.
"No, thank you sister, I have to go back!"
The honest woman withdrew her hand and walked away with a smile.
Luo Xinxin narrowed her eyes slightly and stared at the woman's back with a slight smile. If this happened in the future, she would be a walking figure of 500,000!
Although I can't make half a million now, it would be great if I could take off the hat.
She returned to her room only after the honest woman left the carriage.
Qin Jingxiong was still sleeping. Zhao Zicheng woke up and sat by the window looking at the scenery. Li Rong had not come back yet.
"Uncle Zhao, have some watermelon and peaches."
Luo Xinxin invited him to eat some fruit.
"Thanks!"
Zhao Zicheng took a piece of watermelon and ate it. Many people can't eat watermelon politely, but he ate it very elegantly. It was obvious that he was a young man from a wealthy family who had received table etiquette training since childhood.
Luo Xinxin was originally eating in big mouthfuls, but seeing Zhao Zicheng eating so elegantly, she couldn't help but change to eating in small bites, and it took her ten minutes to chew on a piece of watermelon.
It is elegant, but not satisfying.
A smile flashed in Zhao Zicheng's eyes. The little girl's movements were quite gentle, but her eyes were full of bitterness and hatred. If you didn't know better, you would think she was biting the Japanese!
In the soft sleeper car, as soon as the honest woman left, two soldiers went to report to Li Rong.
"Company Commander, is this woman really a bad person? Why doesn't she look like one?"
The soldier who was questioning was called Niu Bajin, only 19 years old, with a childish look on his baby face. He was from Kuaiji.
Kuaiji is famous for its military advisors, and the locals are also famous for their wisdom and strategy, but Niu Bajin is completely innocent from head to toe, has high individual combat capabilities, and is extremely obedient, making him a soldier that the army leaders love very much.
However, Niu Bajin only listened to Li Rong and would not listen to anyone else, even if they were army commanders.
"If you can see through a bad person, can he still be called a bad person? You can't judge people by their appearance. Those who look fierce are not necessarily bad people, and those who look honest are not necessarily good people."
Li Rong patiently explained to him the art of judging people. Sometimes he really wanted to give some of his brains to this kid. He had a big bull's head but a fish's brain. This kid was lucky enough to grow up safely and not be taken away by a beggar.
"I know!"
Niu Bajin smiled innocently, and if you ignored his clear eyes, he was actually a handsome guy.
Red lips, white teeth, big eyes, high nose bridge, baby face, every part is top-notch. Unfortunately, after assembly, because the eyes are too clear, it has been reduced from top-notch to low-end.
"Not necessarily. For example, Jia Nanfeng of the Western Jin Dynasty was extremely ugly, born with the appearance of a villain, and her mind was also extremely vicious."
The other soldier was tall and strong, with a somewhat rough appearance, but he had a very delicate name, Zhou Xiaohong, nicknamed Hongmeizi. He was from Hunan Province and was a fellow countryman of Zeng Guofan.
Although Zhou Xiaohong is big and strong, he is thoughtful and skillful. Li Rong and Niu Bajin always ask him to mend their torn clothes.
He also loved studying history, but he only studied the romantic stories in history because he couldn't concentrate on serious matters. He had to have some romance to be interested in studying.
So he only learned half of it, and he was a half-baked person who loved to show off. Zhou Xiaohong loved to show off. No matter what the topic was, he could force it to be related to historical figures to show off his profound knowledge.
"What does Jia Nanfeng do?"
Niu Bajin asked curiously.
"The Emperor's concubine, this woman is ugly and has a heart as vicious as a snake. She has killed countless people."
Zhou Xiaohong explained enthusiastically.
"This woman is too bad."
Niu Bajin cursed indignantly. Every time Zhou Xiaohong showed off, he was the most cooperative listener, so the relationship between the two was very good, closer than brothers.
Seeing him so supportive, Zhou Xiaohong felt a sense of accomplishment and wanted to talk to Niu Bajin in detail about Jia Nanfeng's romantic affairs.
"If you're so talented, why don't you go find Jianwen's grave? You're just studying those little things on the kang. You might as well study sows during confinement!"
Li Rong couldn't stand it any longer, so he gave everyone a slap on the head and went back to the hard sleeper car.
He deliberately let Bajin and Xiaohong leave and let the honest woman into the soft sleeper compartment. When she pushed open the door of Luo Weian and his wife's room, Bajin and Xiaohong stepped forward to stop her, successfully making the enemy think that Qin Jingxiong and his wife were in that room.
However, in this case, Luo Weian and his wife would be in danger and might really die.
But in order to ensure the safety of Qin Jingxiong and his wife, not to mention the lives of Luo Weian and his wife, even his life and the lives of more than 30 soldiers under his command can be sacrificed.
The order they received before setting off was that even if there was only one person left, they had to safely deliver Qin Jingxiong and his wife to the base.
The voices of Luo Xinxin and Zhao Zicheng were heard in the room, and Li Rong pushed the door open and went in.
"You're here just in time. I have important information to share with you!"
Luo Xinxin stood up excitedly and told what she saw on the platform about the honest woman and her accomplices.
"My eyes are bright. The three of them were definitely talking, but when I asked her, she denied it. They must be in the same group. I'll draw it for you!"
Luo Xinxin can draw a little bit of simple sketches. She learned it in her previous life. In order to earn a living, she used the weekends to go to scenic spots to draw simple portraits for people. Her drawing skills have become pretty good.
Li Rong actually already knew about it, so he sent his men to disguise themselves and keep an eye on the four people. The honest woman and her two accomplices were talking on the platform and were seen by the soldier who was watching them. He immediately reported to him. He disguised himself as a train conductor and went to the room to check the tickets, where he saw the faces of the two people.
However, seeing Luo Xinxin so enthusiastic, he did not discourage her enthusiasm, and he also wanted to see how she painted.
Luo Xinxin took out paper and pen from her bag and started drawing on the coffee table. After a few minutes, she had drawn a portrait of the Huang Que couple, which was about 70% similar.
Li Rong raised his eyebrows. The painting was really like the real thing. He didn't expect that this fierce woman was so good at painting.
"There's a black mole under the woman's left eyebrow, you missed it!"
He pointed it out, a smile on his face.
Luo Xinxin was stunned for a moment, but soon understood what was going on. She was so angry that she reached out to grab the drawing paper. Li Rong dodged her and said with a smile, "Your drawing is very good. I'll ask you to do it when the time comes."
When she heard that she could ask for credit, her anger immediately disappeared, and she actively asked, "Do you want to draw those four people too?"
You can give her more credit and take off the hat as soon as possible.
"You like drawing so much, why not draw everyone on the train?"
Li Rong really didn't want to be mean, but sometimes his mouth spoke faster than his brain. He felt a little regretful after he said it, but when he saw Luo Xinxin's face change faster than the matchmaker, he became happy again.
I just like watching this fierce woman's face change, it's quite funny.
