Chapter 394: All Transformed into Actors
Cui Yi stretched lazily.
The task assigned by Junior Sister is about to be completed.
When the old man wakes up, he can go to the clinic to see patients.
Thinking of the pie that Qinghuang had painted for him, Cui Yi was filled with energy.
The other side.
When Xie Yingmian received Cui Yi's letter, the corners of her mouth curled up.
Since Master Ning was resolute in his attitude, things became much easier.
However, just taking back the Ning family's repayment and bankrupting the Cao family would be too easy for the Cao family.
Since she has intervened in this matter, she must do it well, at least to be worthy of her thyroid gland.
Xie Yingmian immediately sent a message to Nightingale.
When you are away from home, your identity is given by yourself.
She wants to give Wen Ge an identity.
On the Nightingale side, Cao Meng, the current deputy leader of Nightingale, immediately made arrangements after receiving Xie Yingmian's letter.
The entire Hedu District is under Nightingale's control.
At Cao Meng's command, everyone near the dock turned into actors.
The maid sent by Cao Jian was named Zhou.
Mrs. Zhou first came to the store where Wen Ge and Mrs. Cao met and pretended to buy something.
"Boss, I want to ask you something." Mrs. Zhou pretended to ask casually while paying. "A few days ago, I saw a young lady in your store. She was very pretty."
"My son fell in love with that young lady at first sight."
"I saw that young lady still had her hair in a bun, so I wanted to ask the shopkeeper, do you know where she lives? Is she engaged to anyone?"
The shopkeeper lowered his head and counted on his abacus, not even looking up: "Many young ladies come to our shop every day. How can I know which one you are talking about?"
Mrs. Zhou said, "It was the one that had an argument in your shop a few days ago. A mother and daughter who looked very well dressed were scolding a young woman who wasn't dressed up much. The young woman didn't seem to be very good at speaking and had a scar on her face."
The shopkeeper stopped moving his hand which was working on the abacus.
He looked at Mrs. Zhou: "Oh, you are talking about Cuicui."
"Miss Cuicui already has a fiancé."
After saying this, the shopkeeper continued to calculate on the abacus.
When Mrs. Zhou heard what the shopkeeper said, she suddenly felt that there was hope.
"Then, shopkeeper, do you know where Miss Cuicui lives?"
The shopkeeper said impatiently: "What's wrong with you? Didn't I tell you that Cuicui has a fiancé? Why are you still thinking about him?"
He looked at Mrs. Zhou and asked, "Are you a human trafficker?"
"Xiao Yuan, go tell the patrol team that there's a woman here who looks like a human trafficker..."
Mrs. Zhou said hurriedly, "It's a misunderstanding."
"If you don't want to talk about it, forget it. Why are you slandering me for no reason? I won't ask anymore."
Mrs. Zhou was afraid of being caught, so she left in a hurry.
After Mrs. Zhou left, the shopkeeper grinned.
The deputy gang leader said that if you perform well, the princess will reward you.
He felt he had played extremely well.
He is sure to get this reward.
Mrs. Zhou came to the street, feeling a little worried.
The name Cuicui is very common. There are so many people in Hedu District, where can she find anyone?
Just as Mrs. Zhou was feeling worried, a young woman tugged at her and lowered her voice, "Auntie, are you asking about Chen Cuicui?"
Mrs. Zhou was startled and looked at the person in front of her suspiciously: "Who are you?"
The young woman said, "It doesn't matter who I am."
"I just passed by there and heard you asking about someone, so I listened a little longer. From your description, I guess the person you're looking for is Chen Cuicui."
Mrs. Zhou's heart moved.
She asked calmly, "Do you know her?"
Hatred blazed in the young woman's eyes. "I know her more than just that! She and I are irreconcilable."
"Auntie, there are too many people here."
"I'm thirsty. There's a teahouse over there. I'm telling you something. Would it be too much to ask you to treat me to a cup of tea?"
Mrs. Zhou was very happy.
This is really like someone giving you a pillow when you are sleepy.
She was just worrying about where to find someone, and coincidentally, the bitch's enemy came to her door.
"It's not too much, it's not too much. It's my treat, order whatever you want." Mrs. Zhou and the young woman came to the teahouse.
There were not many people in the teahouse.
The young woman ordered the most expensive tea and asked for the most expensive snacks in the store.
"Here's the thing," the young woman said as she ate. "Xiao Nan and I have been childhood sweethearts. I love Xiao Nan, and I want to marry him when I grow up."
"As a result, a few years ago, about four or five years ago, Brother Xiaonan rescued a deaf and mute woman from somewhere."
"Since then, Xiaonan has been indifferent to me. I told him my feelings, but he said he only treated me as a sister and that he only loved that mute. I was so angry. How am I any worse than that mute?"
"Some time ago, they got engaged and are said to be getting married by the end of the year."
The young woman said bitterly: "It's all that mute's fault."
"If that mute hadn't appeared, Brother Xiaonan would still be mine. Only I am worthy of Brother Xiaonan."
"Auntie, you want Chen Cuicui to marry your son, right? If you're willing, I can help you."
Mrs. Zhou was delighted.
What a lucky guy she is!
"Do you know where Chen Cuicui lives?" asked Mrs. Zhou.
The young woman said, "Of course, Brother Xiaonan and I are childhood sweethearts, and Chen Cuicui lives in Brother Xiaonan's house."
Mrs. Zhou: "Then can you take me to see it first?"
"I want to confirm whether she is the one my son has his eyes on."
The young woman refused: "That won't do."
"I have no relationship with you. If I take you there, what if you kick me away?"
"How about this, you give me ten taels of silver."
Mrs. Zhou's face suddenly darkened.
She suspected she had met a scammer.
The young woman said, "I won't take your silver. We'll leave it in this teahouse. This teahouse is so big, and it's Nightingale's territory. We won't be greedy for your ten taels of silver. If you're worried, ask the teahouse to write a deposit note."
"Wait until I take you to see Chen Cuicui, and you confirm that I'm not lying, and the silver will be mine."
"If you think I'm lying, just take the silver back."
"The teahouse is right here. The monk can escape, but the temple cannot, don't you think?"
Mrs. Zhou dispelled her doubts.
Ten taels of silver is not a small amount, but it is not a large amount either.
The tea shop is not small, so it is impossible for it to hide the ten taels of silver.
Moreover, if the teahouse dared not to acknowledge it, she would move out of the Cao family. She didn't think a small teahouse would dare to offend the Cao family.
Mrs. Zhou gave the teahouse ten taels of silver.
The teahouse owner didn't want to cause trouble, so he wrote a deposit note to Mrs. Zhou and the three of them put their fingerprints on it.
"The tea and snacks you ordered cost fifty taels of silver. Who's going to pay?"
Mrs. Zhou's eyes widened: "Fifty taels?"
"Are you kidding me?"
"A small, shabby teahouse, a few dim sum and a pot of tea, fifty taels of silver? That's robbery!"
The teahouse owner was unhappy when he heard this: "What do you mean by a small, shabby teahouse?"
"Our teahouse is a well-known old brand in Hedu District, and our tea-tea snacks are absolutely amazing."
"You ordered the most expensive Bixuedian in our store. You look quite impressive, so you must have heard of Bixuedian. If it were a place like Zhaixinglou, a pot would cost over a hundred taels."
"Speaking of those desserts, you should have heard of soufflé, right?"
