Chapter 1028 Guessed Right
Lai Xi and Lai Fu tried to stop them, but the friendly officer immediately drew his knife and said, "We are also following orders!
Anyone who dares to stop me will be killed without mercy!"
How could Zhang Juexia let Lai Xi and Lai Fu lose their lives, so he quickly stopped them.
The officers went straight to the kitchen, searched everywhere, and ran out, saying to the leading officer, "Nothing!"
"Let's go to the next one.
Madam Ye, I apologize for any offense."
Zhang Juexia certainly didn't give up and let them go, "Sir, wait a minute!"
As she spoke, she took out a heavy purse from her pocket and handed it to the man. She whispered, "It's the middle of the night, everyone must have worked hard.
This little money will be used to treat the officials to a feast."
The man took the purse and weighed it in his hand, then nodded to Zhang Juexia with satisfaction, "Mrs. Ye, you're welcome. I thank you on behalf of my brothers."
"You're welcome, you're welcome."
Zhang Juexia took the opportunity to move forward and said, "Sir, you know I am just a woman, and I usually like to chat and laugh with those ladies.
Could you please tell me, aren't you looking for someone?
How come you just rummage around in the kitchen and leave?"
The official holding the silver couldn't help laughing after hearing what Zhang Juexia said.
Zhang Juexia pretended to be embarrassed and smiled innocently, "I knew that the officials were laughing at me.
Actually, when we women are together, we look like we are joking, but in reality we are comparing ourselves to each other.
Today she bought a new hairpin, and tomorrow she bought a new bracelet.
As for me, I can never compare to them.
But if I could explain what happened today, wouldn’t it make me seem more capable than them?”
The officer glanced at Zhang Juexia, who waved his hands hastily, "If you are embarrassed, forget it, you should just get on with your work!"
You still need to rest in the middle of the night!
As for me, when I am with those ladies tomorrow, I will just listen while they talk.
I’m used to it anyway.”
Zhang Juexia pretended to be pitiful and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief.
"Well, I just can't stand seeing women cry.
In fact, it’s not a big deal. Anyone with a brain can understand it after all this trouble.
Let’s go into the kitchen…”
Zhang Juexia quickly raised his head and pretended to listen very seriously.
The officer lowered his voice and said, "Actually, the person we are looking for is very ill.
Think about it, when people are sick, they need to take medicine, so the above means searching house to house, which will cause quite a lot of noise.
If that person hears the news, he will definitely hide.
But he couldn't avoid the medicine he had taken and the residue.
Now all the doctors in Qingfeng City have been invited to the government office. As long as there is someone who can make medicine at home, we will take it away.
Okay, Madam Ye, I'm just telling you this much. You can show your face in front of the other ladies tomorrow."
"Thank you, sir. I knew you were a good man.
I hope you can find that person soon, so that you can get promoted and make a fortune."
"Thank you for your good wishes."
Only after the officials had left did the door of his house close tightly.
Zhang Juexia waved his hand, "It's nothing, everyone should go to bed!"
After saying this, she glanced towards the guest room and went to sleep in the room.
At this time, her footsteps were light. As expected, she was not wrong. The person lying in the room was not Ye Beixiu at all.
Ye Beixiu must be strong, that’s enough.
But when she lay down, she began to have wild thoughts again. What if Ye Beixiu was a hostage in Qinglan City?
So will he be in danger?
I kept thinking about this for most of the night, until dawn.
After what happened last night, Liu Mingda no longer hesitated. He just lied. Now all he could say was that saving his life was the most important thing.
Besides, as long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood. Maybe after a few years, Zhang Juexia will thank him.
Thinking this in his heart, Liu Mingda no longer felt sorry for Zhang Juexia.
When he saw the dark circles under Zhang Juexia's eyes, his heart tightened, "Did he not sleep well?"
"No one would be able to sleep well after what happened last night."
Liu Mingda sighed, just sat there quietly and didn't say anything else.
Zhang Juexia was the one who couldn't hold back, "Uncle Liu, you have made an indelible contribution to my husband and I being where we are today.
We will always remember your kindness.
My husband and I have mentioned before that when you are old, we will take care of you.”
Liu Mingda raised his beard and said, "I'm not so old that I can't walk. I don't need you to take care of me in my old age."
"Uncle Liu, please don't argue. This is what we wanted anyway."
"Then I'll take note of what you said.
If you fail to do what you said, I will not forgive you."
"How could that be, Uncle Liu? Since we are all going to provide for your retirement, please tell me the truth. Is Bei Xiu okay?"
"I'm fine, jumping around like crazy."
"Then I'm relieved. Thank you, Uncle Liu, for coming to tell me such good news so early in the morning."
"Don't interrupt me, I'm looking for you for something else, we can't stay at your house anymore.
Please make some arrangements for your farm and we will move there as soon as possible.
Identity? Just make one up! We're not picky, but the place to stay needs to be secluded, as the patient needs to recover."
"Uncle Liu, how long will you be staying here?"
"Two months at most."
"Okay, do you guys leave now, or wait until tomorrow?"
"To avoid any further delays, let's go now.
But you have to follow.”
"Why?"
"Because you need to accompany your husband to relax!
He went to Qinglan City to do business and was cheated. On the way, he lost the confidence to live.
If I hadn't stuck with you, I wouldn't have been able to save him.
He needs a quiet place to relax right now. Even if you're worried, you should still follow him!"
"Uncle Liu, I think it's a pity for you to be a doctor."
"What do you mean?"
"You should go to the theatre and write a play."
"Why?"
"Because you write it well!"
"Forget it, forget it, I can never win an argument with you.
But I am telling you this.
The person lying in the room is truly a noble person.
Haven’t you always wanted to open a shop in the capital?
We must seize this opportunity."
"Uncle Liu, is he also an imperial merchant like my godfather?"
Liu Mingda was so frightened that he waved his hands repeatedly, "Stop guessing, just arrange for us to go together!
The man in the room has long lost his patience. Let me tell you, don't try anything tricky. He's not a good person.
