Chapter 166 You Wu(1/2)
Yan Xuehuai and Huang Bo, one sitting in the pile of jars, the other sitting in front, two people standing in front, one behind, and nothing was said along the way.
When he arrived at the intersection of Huichang Street, the mule cart stopped, Yan Xuehuai jumped out of the car and started to carry vegetables downstairs.
When Huang Bo saw him, he hurried over to help.
With ready-made helpers, Yan Xuehuai was not polite and moved the vegetables down with Huang Bo.
Suddenly, he stretched out his hands and took the dishes from Yan Xuehuai's hand.
"I'll do it."
The voice was faint, but it was undeniable.
It was Chai Yan who came.
"Well, this is for you too."
Yan Xuehuai hooked a basket of spinach with her feet.
Huang Bo was stunned. The young man who suddenly appeared with sword eyebrows and starry eyes was so handsome that he was a little out of tune. Who is this?
"Miss Yan, this person is also from your shop?"
Huang Bo asked tentatively.
Yan Xuehuai was about to say no, but Chai Yan rushed to say, "Well, we're together."
Yan Xuehuai wanted to kick him. Have you forgotten what you said yesterday?
But in front of Huang Bo, Yan Xuehuai couldn't expose him, so he had to roll his eyes in his heart.
Huang Bo said to Yan Xuehuai in awkward manner: "Your shop has recruited a lot of people, it's great."
"I have recruited several people, and I have more power." Yan Xuehuai said.
Chai Yan carried a basket of vegetables in each hand and said to Yan Xuehuai: "Young master, please let others go. I can carry these vegetables back alone."
Young owner...
Yan Xuehuai laughed and said to Huang Bo: "Thank you, Brother Huang, you still have something to do, so I won't leave you anymore. You come to the shop someday and let my mother cook in person, and you can try her skills."
Huang Bo smiled and said, "Okay, I will definitely go somewhere else."
Seeing the Huang family's mule cart disappearing at the corner, Chai Yan coughed dryly: "Young boss, can we go back?"
Yan Xuehuai glared at him and kicked the other two baskets of vegetables in front of him: "Take it back."
"Okay."
Chai Yan ran away like a gust of wind, and soon ran back and took two more baskets of vegetables. When Yan Xuehuai walked halfway with the lightest dry fungus and daylily, Chai Yan had already returned.
"I put the vegetables at the door of the shop. You ask Mr. Xin to help you move in. Don't move them yourself. There are burrs on the basket. Be careful to hurt your hands."
Yan Xuehuai nodded: "Thank you."
"That..." Chai Yan hesitated for a moment and said, "I will go to Dongji for dinner in the future, and I will be opposite your shop."
"Okay." Yan Xuehuai couldn't remember what else Dong Ji had to eat besides barbecue and grilled mushrooms.
"Then I'm leaving, I'm really leaving. Today I have something to do and I'm very busy." After Chai Yan said that, he really walked quickly.
Yan Xuehuai shook her head, you were very busy and you ran over to tell me that you would go to Dongji for dinner in the future?
Alas, young man, Sister Yan doesn’t know how to evaluate it.
Chai Yan was really worried. He was passing by just now and happened to see a man helping Yan Xuehuai carry vegetables, so he ran over to help. Amber and agate were still waiting for him at the intersection.
Amber and Agate look at me, and I look at you, and both feel a little guilty.
If the princess knew, they would watch their seventh master, one of the young masters, and they would carry vegetables and baskets, and they would stand by and watch, okay, they would feel unreasonable.
At this time, Chai Yan came back and the three of them left in a hurry.
When he came to the outside of Cuixian Street, Agate said, "Seventh Master, you are inside, why don't we take him out and we go to the house on the South Street."
"No, if you bring people with you, something will easily happen," he said, and walked into Cuixian Street, walked a few steps, and saw that agate and amber were still hesitating, and said, "You can come to this place, so can I."
Strictly speaking, Cuixian Street is not a street, and it is a long and turns. If you don’t have regular customers, you will really not be able to find a place.
The three of them stopped in front of a bungalow with a unique courtyard. Ma Agami came forward to knock on the door. The one who came to answer the door was a woman wearing heavy makeup.
The woman's face turned pale when she saw the agate: "It's still inside, I've given him medicine again as you told me."
Agate nodded, and made a way out, Chai Yan walked in.
There were a pair of "mother and daughter" and two maids living in the yard. The woman was named Meiyu and her daughter was named Lancao.
When Lancao heard someone coming, she shook her hand and greeted her. Seeing Chai Yan, Lancao was stunned. Subconsciously pursed her temples and bit her lips again, making her lips that turned white due to fear a little bloody.
Chai Yan didn't even give her a corner of his eyes and walked into the house.
There was a man lying in the room, and there was another standing beside the bed.
Seeing Chai Yan coming here in person, Liuli was startled and looked at Agate in surprise. What place is this? Why did you bring Qi Ye here?
Agate was helpless, and he didn't want to, but Qi Ye insisted on coming, what could he do?
"Wake him up." Chai Yan said in a deep voice.
Liuli looked at Meiyu and Lancao who were lying at the door: "Get a bucket of cold water."
The mother and daughter did not dare to delay, so they quickly brought a large bucket of cold water over.
It's cold in winter, and there is still a layer of thin ice in the water that has not yet melted.
"Waste him awake with water." Liuli ordered.
The mother and daughter were trembling and it took a lot of effort to pour the bucket of water on the man. The person on the bed whispered and sat up.
Lancao was so scared that she almost knelt down: "Your Master, it's not about my slave's business, it's really not about my slave's business."
You Wu had just woken up and hadn't figured out what was going on, so he pressed a short knife against his chest.
"Who are you? Who are you?" You Wu shouted in surprise.
Liuli sneered: "Yu Wu, you are a person who has been on the road, so don't make a fuss. You can do it, and we can do it too. Just be honest if you want to survive."
You Wu's face turned pale, and he stared at the shaking orchid, damn, I was hurt by this bitch.
Chai Yan winked, and Agate said to Lancao: "Okay, there's nothing you have to do here."
Orchid was as if he had received amnesty and stumbled and ran out.
Looking at Lancao's back, You Wu spat, this stinky girl is really not a good one.
Chai Yan slowly walked to You Wu and said coldly: "Yan Jingxiu ordered you?"
"What?" You Wu looked at Chai Yan. He didn't know the boy in front of him.
"Stop pretending to be confused. Yan Jingxiu's biological mother and cousin are spies, and are still in the prison of Feiyuwei. If Mr. Chen knew that you were involved with them, would he guess he would protect you or kick you away?"
You Wu's face changed drastically. He didn't know much about Mr. Chen. How did this young man know?
And why did anyone know about him and Yan Jingxiu?
Seeing his eyes flashing, but still pondering, Chai Yan sneered: "You can give Yan Jingxiu a certificate. Your friendship seems to be really good. No wonder he has to pull you in everything he does."
"Yan Jingxiu paid for the money, and I helped him find someone, that's all." You Wu said.
Chai Yan smiled and said, "On the second day of October last year, you and your brother Youlu were twenty miles outside Shunde Mansion and killed a family of seven and a coachman and two servants. There were two old men, a couple, and three children in the family of seven. The youngest child is still in his infancy. I wonder if you still remember this?"
You Wu was stunned, and clenched his back teeth tightly, without saying a word.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Chai Yan said again: "That family came to Xinjing to join the marriage. The old couple had two sons. The one you killed was the youngest son and the youngest daughter-in-law. They also had an eldest son who was an official in the capital. He was Zhou Tingzhen, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice. By the way, the oldest of the three children you killed was Zhou Tingzhen's eldest son, Zhou Hong, who was eight years old."
You Wu stared at Chai Yan in disbelief, his lips twitched, and after a while, he squeezed out a sentence: "What do you want me to do?"
Chai Yan smiled slightly, lifted up his robe, and sat down opposite You Wu: "Tell me about the things between you and Yan Jingxiu in detail."
You Wu still stared at him: "I told you about the matter, can you guarantee not to report to the official?"
Chai Yan put away his smile and said coldly: "Why, do you still want to bargain with me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the short blade in Liuli's hand sent more than a century forward, and blood oozed out through You Wu's thin clothes.
"You are ruthless, I'll say!" You Wu gritted his teeth.
Chai Yan closed his eyes and looked leisurely, as if he was not interrogating the prisoner, but listening to music in the teahouse.
You Wu looked at the young and graceful face and was so angry that he wanted to curse, but he could only curse in his heart. What can he do with such a big handle in his hands?
"I met Yan Jingxiu two years ago. At that time, I was still running for raids. I missed the raids. The person who came to pick up the raids was a scholar. I said he would pay the money, but he insisted on pulling me and my brother to meet the official. I was so angry that I pushed him. When he fell down, he just knelt on the stone and died. Yan Jingxiu came with this person, and I was frightened at the time and didn't know what to do. Unexpectedly, Yan Jingxiu did not make a big fuss, but insisted that the scholar fell to death by himself.
Afterwards, he followed our brothers to report to the yamen. After the coroner made an autopsy, it was proved that the scholar died of the stone. In addition, with witnesses like us, the matter was left unresolved. The scholar's family was all in other places and had no idea about this. Even if we failed the escort, no one would pursue the matter.
Since then, our brothers and Yan Jingxiu have become friends in distress. Later, his family came to Xinjing and he asked us to help find his aunt and sister. When we found out that the mother and daughter were targeted by a group of refugees, we guessed that there was a lot of danger. Not long after, we found the body of a mother and daughter, and thought it was the person we were looking for. Unexpectedly, we found the wrong thing and went to court later. Oh, if we had known that you would have targeted me because of this, I would never go to court to prove it."
Hearing this, Chai Yan finally opened his eyes, his eyes were as sharp as a torch, and he looked at You Wu: "You really found the bodies of a mother and daughter?"
"Really, of course, it's true. Alas, those two women were tortured to the point of being human, especially the little one, who was all ruined. The refugees were all in groups, extremely vicious, and they robbed whatever they saw. When they saw women, they were all ruined, regardless of age. The two of the Yan family were really lucky."
Chai Yan's heart suddenly twitched, and suddenly it hurt.
It’s not that they have a great life, but that the mother and daughter are unwilling to be humiliated and resist desperately.
