Chapter 398

After that, the landlady kept vigilant all the time, and obviously regretted taking over the business. However, Xue tingji's gentle demeanor didn't look like a villain, which made her slightly dispel her worries. "You came out to do business with your wife."

Xue tingji said with a smile, "husband and wife are of one mind. They have to see each other everywhere to be at ease."

The landlady showed a little envy, "you are quite at ease. How many children are there?"

He choked and shook his head reluctantly. "Please don't mention this in front of my wife."

The boss's wife suddenly realized that it's a pity, but it's rare for the couple to have such a relationship.

As he spoke, a couple of old people came to the shop. They were full of tears and looked tired. The landlady seemed to be used to it. She asked them to sit down and bring out two bowls of hot porridge. The old man was too sad to eat a mouthful.

Out of kindness, Xue Ting comes forward to ask the reason. The old man's mouth is vague, but the landlady's expression is unpredictable. I don't know if Xue Ting's heart is full of hatred in her eyes.

"Their granddaughter has been lost. I haven't found her for two months. It's no surprise that we have to lose one or two young women every month. Some people say They were caught and sold. You say how evil those people have to be. They deserve to be punished, don't they? "

Although he knew that the landlady was testing him, Xue tingji frowned. I'm afraid the whereabouts of these missing women

It was wise to keep silent at this time, but he couldn't bear to see the poor old man looking for his own bone, so he made a sound.

"On my way here, I heard that Gongjiang in Kezhou is running a shady business. Although I don't know the details, I may have a clue."

The old man was grateful, while the landlady's eyes were complicated. Xue tingji didn't explain, but he had a definite number in his heart.

It seems that the landlady is not a bad person. She just mistakenly thinks that they are also human traffickers, so she is particularly disgusted.

When she went back to her house and told Pei Ming about it, she thought more about it. "It's not close to Gongjiang. It's only a mountain away from Qicheng. Maybe We have fallen into Liu's sight. "

"It doesn't matter." Xue Ting tucked in the quilt for her. They came at night. After entering the guest house, they did not go out. If the landlady and the doctor had no problem, they would not be found.

Pei Ming nodded and looked at Xue tingji for a while. Then he reached out and stroked the corner of his eye and brow. He traced the lip peak along the bridge of his nose. Then he turned his chin and covered his side face.

This face, from the original youth heroism into today's resolute mature, how is she love the appearance.

Maybe the vent in the cave was too incisive that day. Up to now, some aftertaste still exists. Now they have settled down for the time being, and both of them are ready to move.

Holding her hand and kissing her in the palm of her hand, Xue tingji has always liked this action, and then it's natural to do something.

In the shabby house, the bedding is not very comfortable, but it is precisely this kind of embarrassment that makes them like an island between heaven and earth. Apart from embracing each other tightly, they have nowhere else to go. The more turbulent they are, the more emotional they are.

It wasn't until after sweating that Xue tingji remembered that she didn't take the medicine, but he was afraid that the medicine would interfere with Ah Ming's injury, and he regretted that he should not be impulsive.

Pei Ming doesn't care. She's been taking medicine for more than a year. It's accumulated in her body for years. How can she be pregnant.

Every time she talked about this, she was not happy. Xue tingji didn't dare to say anything more. He poured her a cup of hot water wisely and said, "sleep for a while. I'll ask the landlady to change the bedding."

Soon all the three rooms were cleaned, and the new quilts were finally appropriate. The dinner was made by the landlady herself. Rao is so. Marigold still tried the poison seriously.

At night, Pei Xiao takes orders to spy on the downstairs and keep a close eye on the proprietress's every move. In the second half of the night, the proprietress quietly leaves the guest house and comes back after a whole hour, but there is no other difference. People are not sure what she wants.

The next morning, the landlady suddenly knocked on the door and said that there was a business coming. I don't know if the guests are interested.

"We produce Dendrobium here. People often come to buy it. The businessmen don't lose money. Would you like to buy a little bit?"

If he refused, Xue tingji didn't refuse. The landlady said happily, "OK, one or two patent medicines will be converted into twenty grain silver. How much do you buy?"

Xue tingji gave a random number and was about to give the money, but he saw that the landlady was cold and stepped back, as if to run away.

Then, a string of footsteps ran up to embrace, most likely the boss's wife called, what do they want?!

"You're not in business." The landlady's eyes were hostile. "I quoted four times higher than the market price, but you didn't bargain at all, because you didn't know the price of Dendrobium and the rules of business. So who are you and what are you doing in Sanchuan? "

I didn't expect that this woman was quite smart. Xue Ting took off her disguise and was about to shut her up when he saw four or five big men coming up to protect the landlady.

However, there is no need for him to do anything. Seeing that the situation is not right, Pei Xiao and Jin Zhan go forward to protect the Lord very conscientiously. Their hostile attitude scares several feigned men. Evil comes from courage, but they want to strike first.But where do they have any real skills? They are subdued by Pei Xiao before they fight. The landlady sees that the situation is not right. Instead, she doesn't run away. Instead, she pulls off her hairpin and pours at Xue Ting!

This sneak attack is not enough for Xue tingji. He is curious why the landlady is so hostile to him.

That is the moment of distraction, exposed himself to the offensive, just recovered to prepare to fight back, a figure suddenly rushed in front of him, kicked the landlady on the door.

"Don't move, Ah Ming."

He pulls Pei Ming apart. Why bother her for such a small scene? Fortunately, Pei Ming doesn't even lift his arm. He doesn't have to work hard to deal with a person who has no Kung Fu at all.

Seeing that she didn't have a chance to win, the landlady just yelled, "you brutes, the things that do great harm to people, do you have to kill us common people?"

Pei Ming asked Pei Xiao and Jin Zhan to drive those big men away. Close the door and don't let anyone in.

By the way, Xue Ting closed the door, grabbed the hairpin from the landlady's hand, and put her in the corner of the wall. She couldn't move, but she didn't die.

"Calm down, we're not the people you're talking about."

"Fart! I've seen a lot of people here over the years! Who are you from? "

Without waiting for Xue tingji to say anything, the big man outside the door began to shout. What he called was actually "sister-in-law".

Xue tingji was quite surprised, "eh? With all due respect, I thought they were your mistresses. "

This words say don't beat, sure enough was the boss mother stare back, unexpectedly eye socket a red, look quite solemn and stirring.

"They are my late husband's brothers, and I love him Dead in the hands of the White Thief, you are also the running dogs of the rich family

Pei Ming understood, sneered, squatted down and said, "then you should thank us."
