MTL - Perfect Encounter-Chapter 64
Yao Kun looked at An Ruochen, and sighed: "Ms. An came to beat the drums in the middle of the night. I thought she was just trying to fight for the house, but I didn't expect that in the end, she relied on the girl to destroy the secret work lurking in the middle of the night. An organization in Lancheng."
"It would be great if we can catch Mr. Min."
"Even if they don't catch them, they are finished in Pingnan County."
Is it finished? An Ruochen was not optimistic. She hadn't forgotten the traitor in Ziyun Tower. Even if Mr. Min was unable to operate in the city, even if his power in the market collapsed, what about the army and the government?
In a gorgeous mansion, Mr. Min sat in the room and looked at the bells on the four corners of the Dingsongpo viewing pavilion, with a gloomy expression on his face.
There was a man sitting across from him, but that man had a smiling face. "I said earlier that An Ruochen would be a big trouble, but you don't agree to attack her."
Mr. Min turned his head and looked at the other party coldly: "If I need to attack someone, it is because I think it is necessary for the overall situation, not for you."
"For the sake of everything, she shouldn't be so carefree. Look, if you want to go out now, you have to change your face and put on makeup. You can't use your fists in Zhonglan City. What face do you have?" Nan Qin? I feel aggrieved for you."
The gloating was so obvious that Mr. Min gritted his teeth with hatred.
The man said again: "I'm afraid that Yao Kun has deployed people to start searching the city. You are safe with me. It's just that you have to think about what to do next. I'm not always in this city. If you have something to do, you have to do it." Say it in advance."
Mr. Min was silent. He knew the man was just reminding him that his safety depended on him now. Although very dissatisfied, what this person said is the truth. He didn't know what to do next. He has sent a letter by pigeon, waiting to be ordered to act.
This feeling is really aggrieved.
An Ruochen guarded the yamen for a day, but there was no more good news. Li Xiu'er came to surrender, and she followed Aunt Lu's orders, without mentioning Aunt Lu's existence, only saying that An Ruochen once said that the secret agents were vicious, and that the deaths of Matchmaker Xu and Zhao Jiahua made her panic. She originally wanted to take her mother to a doctor to avoid this disaster, but she failed. Seeing someone burning down the house, she fled quickly. Throwing a vase as a warning, after going out, I thought that Xu Matchmaker had an old house that was abandoned, so I went there and so on, all according to what Aunt Lu taught.
After Li Xiuer finished speaking, she glanced at An Ruochen, An Ruochen blinked at her to comfort her, Li Xiuer was relieved when she saw her expression. Aunt Lu said that if she did not surrender, there would be endless troubles. If she came, Ms. An would take care of her. Presumably they will keep their promises.
Sure enough, the prefect didn't speak harshly to her, he just asked her carefully what Xu Matchmaker asked her to do, and Li Xiu'er answered carefully. In the end, Yao Kun did not send her to prison and allowed her to go home.
Thank you very much Li Xiuer. An Ruochen said softly when she was leaving: "If your husband's family can't tolerate you because of this, you can come to me." Hearing this, Li Xiuer burst into tears. For the past two days, I have been terrified, worried about my own life, worried about the safety of my mother, and deeply afraid that I will have no one to rely on in the future. With An Ruochen's words today, I feel that someone really cares. She bowed deeply and stepped back.
Seeing this, the prefect hurriedly sent someone to **** Li Xiu'er, and explained the reason to her husband's family, so that her husband's family should not blame her too much.
But that night, Li Xiuer still went to Ziyun Tower. She was not only dismissed by Jiang Wei with a letter of divorce, but also scolded by neighbors. She had nowhere to go, she wanted to go back to her mother's house and bid farewell to An Ruochen. An Ruochen let her meet Zhao Jiahua. Zhao Jiahua held her hand and said: "I promised you that day, and I will definitely keep it." Li Xiuer cried bitterly, and finally bid farewell to the two of them, and went back to find her mother.
Two days later, Mr. Min's whereabouts were still not found. The preliminary interrogation of the people in Zhaofu Restaurant and Jubao Casino has been completed. An Ruochen fought for Zhao Jiahua's right to inherit Zhaofu Restaurant, and everything was arranged properly, so he went out of the city to pick up Liu Yin according to the address Zhao Jiahua gave.
The pick-up process went smoothly. Na Ping'er and Mrs. Chen received Zhao Jiahua's instructions and trusted An Ruochen very much. Hearing that they were brought back to see Zhao Jiahua, they packed their things and got into the car without saying a word. As for Liu Yin, she was very close to An Ruochen when she saw the sweet dates and fruit candies.
After returning home, Zhao Jiahua's mother and daughter were reunited, so he didn't say much, but An Ruochen obviously felt that he was being investigated.
First, when she arranged for troops and carriages before she left, Changshi Li Mingyu was quite critical and questioned her and the captain of the guard. Regarding the details of Liu Ze and others' crimes, Li Mingyu's investigation of An Ruochen was more detailed than that of prefect Yao Kun. He is particularly concerned about how An Ruochen obtained information. He could even tell why An Ruochen didn't go out in those few days and only talked with his sister, why did he have the opportunity to warn Li Xiuer, why did he get the news from Li Xiuer, whether he knew it before or later, and why did he know it before? Did not report to the general, when did you know later? What did Zhao Jiahua say, when did she say it, why did she doubt Liu Ze, why did she say that Ling Dang had nothing to do with Pinxianglou after Xie Gang left. Why was she at the scene when Liu Ze fought with Lou Zhi, and why was her sister also at the scene? How did the shopkeeper know about it. It also shows that General Ming told her not to act rashly, and why she obeyed the law and violated the law...
The many and detailed questions made An Ruochen very uncomfortable. Although she understood that because it was related to the details of the case record, and she wanted to hide Aunt Lu and other informants, her confession was not perfect, but Li Mingyu's attitude disgusted her. He doubts her more than anyone else, and pays more attention to the details of her affairs than anyone else. As long as he catches a small flaw, he will bite to death, as if waiting for her to be unable to justify herself and reveal her flaws.
On the way to pick up Liu Yin, Lu Zheng comforted An Ruochen, saying that Li Changshi had always been a serious person and treated everyone like that. Let An Ruochen not take it to heart. After hearing this, Tian Qing curled his lips aside, expressing his dissatisfaction with Li Changshi.
When An Ruochen came back after picking up the people, Chun Xiao told An Ruochen that Li Mingyu came to the yard to search for things while she was away, and asked Chun Xiao and the others a lot of questions. Aunt Lu, the guard guarding the gate, etc., as well as Fang Yuan, were all questioned by Li Mingyu. Chun Xiao was very unhappy, thinking that Li Mingyu's official position was not very high, but he was quite majestic.
These things made An Ruochen a little vigilant. Apart from taking care of the house's chores as usual and following up the case with the yamen, she did not do any other small tricks. I have no direct contact with Aunt Lu, but only quietly received a message from her, saying that no one has come to pick up the bell at Dingsong Pavilion. The city is calm, and there is no trace of the whereabouts of any spy.
When An Ruochen came back, Xie Gang had already returned from Feng'an County. An Ruochen heard that Li Changshi had rushed to report the case to Xie Gangzai in detail, and sued An Ruochen for his behavior. An Ruochen felt quite uncomfortable. But Xie Gang didn't say anything, in front of An Ruochen, he only said that she dealt with it in a timely manner and ignored it.
An Ruochen felt that Li Changshi was not convinced, so she paid more attention to her affairs.
Afterwards, Long Da also came back. He and Xie Gang are always busy, always running between the county government office and the suburban barracks. An Ruochen didn't know what was going on, so she didn't ask. She is also busy here. Zhao Jiahua's poison was almost cleared, but her body was still weak. The maids and servants of Liu's mansion were arrested and kicked out, and Zhao Jiahua was worried about some of them, so many of them were sent away. And Li Xiuer's situation was not good when she returned to her natal family. Some people thought that she killed half of the neighbors, and said that she was a traitor and treason. Upon hearing the news, Zhao Jiahua simply took Li Xiuer's family of three to Liu's residence.
As for the restaurant, it has also been rectified. The shopkeeper was loyal to Liu Ze in the past and disdained Zhao Jiahua. Aunt Lu recommended another shopkeeper. After Zhao Jiahua talked, he replaced 70% of the restaurant's staff. The rest are obedient and usable. And Li Xiu'er took care of her affairs in the mansion, and the new shopkeeper took care of the restaurant's affairs. Qi Zheng also entered the restaurant, helping with errands and doing chores, and began to learn things like running the hall. He was very motivated.
Although Zhao Jiahua's body is still weak, everything is gradually getting orderly. She invited An Ruochen to the new Zhaofu restaurant for dinner, and said to her: "If you need any help from me in the future, as long as you ask, I will never refuse."
An Ruochen laughed: "The first thing to do is that the business must be successful. If your business is successful, I'll be happy if you **** all the guests from the three An's restaurants."
After going through those things, a woman became the owner again, Zhaofu Restaurant's vitality was greatly damaged, and its reputation plummeted. The situation will definitely not be easy from now on, but Zhao Jiahua still laughed and accepted An Ruochen's encouragement, saying that he would work hard.
Compared with An Ruochen's joy in bitterness, the situation of An's family is a bit subtle.
In terms of business, An's business suddenly improved a lot.
One was at the restaurant. Due to an accident at Zhaofu Restaurant, all the banquet guests at the end of the year were transferred from Zhaofu Restaurant to other restaurants, and the three restaurants of Anjia were suddenly full every day.
Furthermore, An Ruochen made a great contribution in the case of breaking the secret case. It is well known in the whole city that the eldest daughter of the An family became a hero in the army. The prefect's wife not only gave An Ruochen a gift, but also invited her to the mansion as a guest.
Everyone seems to have forgotten the animosity between An's family and the eldest daughter in the matter of forced marriage and running away. They just feel that An's family is shining everywhere. ask for friendship.
But An Zhifu didn't feel completely happy. Of course it is good to earn money, he only likes this. But what does everyone want to say about An Ruochen when they come over? It was like slapping his old face one by one. And then there was his stupid second daughter, who was so stupid that that **** An Ruochen would make her run wild all over the city. He lost his leg and lost his life, and became a laughing stock.
An Zhifu felt that An Ruochen did it on purpose, definitely deliberately harming An Ruoxi and making their family look ugly.
Regarding this matter, Tan's anger far surpassed that of An Zhifu. In addition to scolding her stupid daughter several times, she also smashed the peace talisman that An Ruochen entrusted to Mrs. Lu, the stew that An Ruochen entrusted to her maid, and so on. That **** is beautiful, but her daughter is ridiculed by others, how can she swallow her breath.
On the contrary, it was An Ruoxi who couldn't tell what she was like. She felt ashamed and angry.
After all, she was followed by a bunch of spectators that day, and in the end she was the one who was seen as a joke, and the one who climbed into the hired sedan chair in embarrassment was her.
But she was relieved when she heard that An Ruochen was safe and sound, and when she heard that she had someone deliver something, she was a little bit **** and wanted to reckon that you still had a conscience. After hearing that she became a hero, she felt that it was not a bad thing. The higher the elder sister climbed, the more help she could get.
Of course, the premise is that if she is willing to help her.
An Ruoxi took a gamble, she was wronged like this, if the eldest sister still doesn't help her, she will not let her go if she is a ghost.
During this period of time, An Ruoxi stayed behind closed doors, one was to heal his injuries, and the other was to lose face. There are a lot of guests at home, and they have nothing to do with her. But one day Qian Pei came to visit suddenly, saying that he had been closed in recent years and lived in Zhonglan City for a while, walking around with friends from various families, and visiting An's house as well.
So Tan asked An Ruoxi to dress up for the family banquet. An Ruoxi's foot injury has healed, she can't refuse anything else, she dare not.
